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.

Reporting Bugs

You are allowed to report bugs only in this thread.

• Grab a logcat right after the problem has occurred. (Please include at least a few pages of the log, not just the last few lines, unless you know what you're doing.)
• If it is a random reboot, grab /proc/last_kmsg. (Do not bother getting a logcat unless you can get it just before the reboot. A logcat after a reboot is useless)
• If the problem disappears after running "setenforce 0" from a root shell, grab /data/misc/audit/audit.log

Remember to provide as much info as possible. The more info you provide, the more likely that the bug will be solved. Please also do not report known issues. The following is a useful format to follow.

First!

Nice one @doriandiaconu Will get testing today!

In call volume is fixed and other user experiences echo
video recording isn't functional but preview works

Also i noticed in your aries tree that you still have egl.cfg which is deprecated now

 

[Deleted member 5746995]

Thanks!

It seems I misplaced the thread. I'll ask one of the admins to move it.

 

[veti]

am i correct in assuming that you will get the fisheye effect on the camera with this?

 

[Rhonin86]

downloading right now - will give it a try and report...

@doriandiaconu OK here is my first impression:

The ROM starts without probs - i even don't have to adjust the updater script :good:
Cam starts without forceclosing - but this could be not valid for the whole time - but for now it works - the foto i have taken has still little problems with autofocus - but for now not bad

* Equalizer for Music seems not to work - there is no difference in sound while applying different presets.
* Though weather for statusbar could be selected there is no weather to be seen - the same could be said for weather on the lockscreen simply not there - i installed Yahoo CM weather Provider - but the service couldn't even accept a given location ???
* System sounds could not be adjusted - they are very loud for now - but maybe there is a hidden feature to adjust...
* NFC could not be activated - the field is insensitiv

THX for this build

Update:

Weather seems to work now - maybe some time was needed for an update - on Lockscreen Weather could be seen, but Music on lockscreen has to be deactivated

You are absolutely right. That's something that won't be fixed that easily (if ever)

My bad & thanks for the info.


Maybe it is now time for the common github creation to keep all of this clean. Will see if I can do this today.
Here is z3 not working list.
Bluetooth is fixed, then break again, etc... Other meaning: Under development
Another point are deep_sleep, we are working on it but will take time.

CC: @doriandiaconu

P.S. I came from z3 and don't own z3c so only can help on basics.

 

[Deleted member 5746995]

Thank you for the intervention @nailyk

Will edit OP when I get home and hopefully will fix some stuff in the next days.

EDIT: can someone make a list with what it's not working? It seems some of the things took some time to settle @Rhonin86 @mcgi5sr2

 

[Rhonin86]

Never mind .....

i think tomorrow afternoon / evening i will find some time to proceed further tests and create a list - any wishes concerning the format of the list ?

Google Doc / Excel sheet / a simple post ...

Your wish is my demand

Cheers

It's so bad that we will not get a proper working aosp or cm rom. I'm so pissed on sony about this, probably will not buy any sony device just because of this reason.

Truth is we could get a good working camera but this implies a lot of knowledge that i don't have and a lot of time.

Sony aren't at fault for this. Look at Samsung. Because of the Exynos CPU and the knox partition they don't even hope for a CM/AOSP project, either on the S7 or the S6.
@Rhonin86 I don't mind it either way

People know there will be no custom aosp/cm rom working on exynos chipset before buying samsung phones. I bought this phone with high expectations, but regretted.

On a long term, there will be development for the shinano devices. Now it's just the beginning and we are few that are working. But there's still hope. CM12.1 was good, CM13 was hardly workable because of the 3.4 kernel. Devs didn't like that and left. Now they have switched to the 3.10 kernel again and CM14.1 is less buggy than CM13.

I think I managed to fix the NFC issue. Camera will get better once the new blobs will be released. Things will get OK. But only in due time and with a lot of work.

why is fish eye so present in this device? I got that in every rom (stock even when in 4k without steadyshot)... I came to this device from xperiaZ thinking camera will rock, and now I can't even use cm/aosp cause camera is so important to me

Edit: sorry for partially off-topic :3

 

[darito30]

I am getting error 7 when installing in recovery, please help

 

[grubbjay]

I also got error 7 flashing this in twrp 3+ but flashed this version last week successfully. Might have to change script can't remember if i had to or not. Good luck. I'm going to keep trying this. Cant post link new user but bing "sony aries cm14.1" choose androidbiits how to install nougat 7.1 on sony z3c. The link is good.
Take out underscores and link is to rom.

[mcgi5sr2]

For people with error 7 you can just remove the first line of the install script in the zip.

For comments on the camera, to be honest no one cares what you think here. If you want to vent go to the official sony forum, the people on XDA are working with what we have. This is a development thread for CM-14.1 if you don't have anything to add about the ROM ie logcats dmesg etc or bug reports then please don't post.

https://github.com/mcgi5sr2/device_sony_aries is the device tree i used for some early builds. It was forked from latest 7.1 branch of the sonyxperiadev repos.
