CyanogenMod is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. Linked below is a package that has come from another Android project that restore the Google parts. CyanogenMod does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.

All the source code for CyanogenMod is available in the CyanogenMod Github repo. And if you would like to contribute to CyanogenMod, please visit out Gerrit Code Review. You can also view the Changelog for a full list of changes & features.

Good work there I assumed this is for the single sim LTE model, but should this work for the single sim WCDMA ?

Sent from my D2305

@galaxyfreak
I have updated camera, gps and arch config. Probably we should add some more sony defs but please test how it is now. Logcat should look differently now or eventaually saying it's missing other parameters.

 

[ismithx]

volunteering my assistance for this project, I can't install CM11 on my phone as it is my daily driver, but if you need someone to help read through logs etc, I would be happy to help

 

[macabrocabral]

I would love to install CM11 to help developers solve some problems, but my model is D2306, I have root but no one made CWM for this model on KK. How can I proceed? D2306 is Single SIM, LTE, South America variant.

did you test your updates? As I am building it now with some mods of my own.

Galaxyfreak / lozohcum added my to the M2Dev github (thanx ). If you guys like, I have setup M2Dev on my review site. I think it is better working for all of us to commit to there for commits that require testing. Only thing to do is to add my gerrit user to M2Dev so we can actually push to github from the review

Also, is the issue list in the OP complete? NFC? BT/Wifi tethering? To name some?

Looking forward to do some nice things here

As said, I have no another NFC device to test, also, I did not test tethering.
Added NFC to not working as you said it's not working last night.

[Bryandu13]

Thanks a lot

Thank you bro, but i'll wait for Mobile Network and Camera, if you say me how i can do a total backup of my ROM i can test to say you if it work
(Sorry i'm french)

 

[tomemon]

Tested it for 30 min now and it seem that themes are recognized very slowly, when I install one it takes 10-20 seconds to be availble to choose in theme chooser tested it with play store themes and themes i have to install via apk.
cant say anything about nfc because i dont have anything nfc related here.
everything you stated is working is working for me too so no problem there :fingers-crossed:
I have one question why is the android version 4.4.2, I also have the moto g and 4.4.4 seemed not to make any problems maby somethings can be fixed by upgrading the cm version.
keep up the good work looking forward to give my brother cm11 for his birthday :victory:

 

[Bryandu13]

Very good !

I'll test it and i love !
When problems will be resolve i'll keep this ROM !
And i have a problem, my recovery don't work, why ?

The Kernel has to be replaced and I think that deletes the recovery, I reflashed it but you cant boot cyanogenmod after that

[Bryandu13]

How can I have a custom recovery ?

How get CWM with cyanogenmod ? I need flash GAPPS !

now some devtalk (I see a lot of Q&A talk in a dev section)
@galaxyfreak / @lozohcum see my reimplement of primadriver here
I have re-imported it from caf. Now working, and without unbalanced irq's.

For ril (or actually, the problem might reside in qmuxd I think), first step to be taken is replace all firmware blobs that are taken from T2 ultra by blobs pulled from M2. I have already done so here
Now the device is able to power up the modem.

Ril is not working yet. For now, I am using the prebuilt ril blobs. Will now recompile without them and test that, also to check the qmuxd theory I have.

Nice work! Replaced adfad666's WiFi commits with yours in M2Dev.

On firmware, yeah, I left T2U firmware because on stock firmwares are stored on /persist partition and so I was feeling lucky
