[ROM][FINAL][7.1.2][2017.10.08][I777] Lineage OS 14.1 Unofficial Build

[AnotherFreakinNoob]

Thanks for the build. I flashed it to my SGH-959g and its running smooth from what little bit I've used it. Will report more when I get a chance to test it out more.

I did cm13 rollback using PHILZ-CWM6-XWLSW-XEU-5.07.0

Philz not support MM and later ROMs.

Please use TWRP.

Thanks for the great work and giving our device another life extension .. I am looking for some guidance as I am stuck at the REPIT piece .. I tried using the Lanchon file below (lanchon-repit-20170115-system=1G-data=same-sdcard=max-preload=min+wipe-i777.zip) .. with no luck .. I am getting "Error Executing Updater Binary in Zip" .. was I supposed to rename it or do something else before flashing .. what am I missing .. any help will be greatly appreciated

EDIT: Issue resolved by following the instruction provided by error to install from the tmp folder. All good.. And now testing the ROM

 

[kingfiras]

After further testing all appears to be smooth and working properly so far .. except for the mic .. I can hear the other side of the call but they can't hear me .. I do recall from the past that there was a fix for this through installing custom kernels or something like that .. any recommendation?

Please flash stock JB firmware. Maybe SGS2 RIL updated for JB modem.

P.S. I can't test it well because I don't have this device. So, I try test to boot with i9100 device.

Next build will be fix this:

1. Installation issues
2. gyro and rotation sensors.

I need to beta testers to fix RIL. Please reply on this tread.

Please count me in as a tester

Since the i9100 has official builds, any chance of pushing the i777 to the same status? They are pretty close in HW (anything other than modem different?).

You might be able to boot it using shift kernel. I know I booted a i9100 rom called wiz cat on my i777 using jeeboo kernel and it worked fine.

Keeping getting MTP and settings have stopped working whenever I reboot. However everything seems to work fine with zero crashes. One thing I do notice though is the battery is draining super fast even in standby mode. Lost over 30‰ overnight. Note: I don't have SIM card so I haven't tested calls.

I was having the same issue but I believe I fixed it by loading up CNBLACK's version of TWRP 3.0.2.0. I can't post the link because of the XDA 10 post rule but if you hit CNBLACK's Download link in the first post that takes you to android file host then navigate to root / Galaxy S2 / CyanogenMod / 13.0 / SGH-I777 / TWRP and grab recovery-TWRP-3.0.2-0-u1att.img

Previously I believe I had a Lanchon build which let me install any i9100 rom on the i777.

The .img version can be flashed from inside of TWRP under install > install image button. Once I installed it I went back into recovery and wiped data/cache/dalvik and the phone stopped all of the error messages and actually works pretty well with LineageOS

I don't have a SIM in the phone so I haven't tested calls either but it's a fun little project phone.

Thanks I actually flashed with TWRP 2.7.1.0. I'll try flashing with 2.8.7.0. It's the last one available for my SGH-959g. Though the ROMs work with both phones, I'm pretty sure that's not the case with the recoveries.

Note: I put my SIM card in however it was never detected. Tried rebooting still no luck. When I clicked on cellular networks under settings it gave the error: android.process has stopped. Never crashed tho. Will try flashing with TWRP 2.8.7.0 and after I install root I'll try and get some logs for you CNBlack.

Well.. I used I9100's RIL & i777's JB Modem library.

I think I need to check about RIL to fix calling and USIM detect issues.

Thanks for feedback.

I've installed TWRP 3.0.2 but the ROM flash still gets stuck at around 80% or so. I've tried multiple times and they all end up getting stuck there.

Can you try to install on TWRP old version?

Maybe, TWRP 3.0.2 have some issues.

Wow! I just dropped in to say how awesome it is that someone is still building for the good old i777. I almost bought one off Ebay not too long ago just for nostalgia purposes. I may have to do it now, just to say I have one that runs the newer OS system.

If 9100 really has official builds and no bugs I can likely get them to push 777 through, I've worked on the device before and still have push ability to many other smdk4412 repos, I'll look into this

Edit: I'm just waiting on a response for them to create the needed branch for the device, otherwise I can't imagine within a week or two (TIME PERMITTING of course, I'm always so freakin busy it's hard to get things done)that possibly getting nightlies or weeklies, whatever Lineage is doing currently, should be very hard at all since I downloaded the source, couple changes and successful build when I wasn't even home lol. I'll see what I can get going for you guys, thanks to all who have kept this thing going even after I FINALLY stopped lol, figured the least I could do was get you guys consistent builds without a user needing to do it themselves over and over when they are running builds automatically anyway

This would be so awesome. Believe it or not I still use this phone as my daily driver.
