[ROM][GT-I9200/I9205][Unofficial] CyanogenMod11 : 20141102 [4.4.4]

[Silesh.Nair]

Development stopped with effect from 06/11/2014. Files will remain in my Mediafire account till the end of this month after which I will remove them

CyanogenMod is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android , which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.

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. You will need to provide your own Google Applications package (gapps). 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.

How does it run?

Credits

This ROM would still be a dream without the work of the following people.

• Willie Ye aka Grarak for building the device tree
• Arne Coucheron aka arco for the help he has been giving me in sorting out issues.
• @stiggy2012, who helped in debugging early builds
• The OTA Update Center Team
• @JustArchi for his ArchiDroid Optimizations. More details here.

Thanks to @thering1975 for the Increase Volume Modification Mod.

Changelog

Changelog is accessible here. From build 20140519, changelog is also accessible on the phone from Settings->About Phone->View Changelog

Additional Information

From the 20140914 build , inbuilt call recording feature will be available for regions where it is legal. For countries where it is not legal, it won't show up. As of now, US, Europe and Australia don't have this feature enabled. The earlier method of editing build.prop will not work.

Procedure

If you are coming from a different ROM, data/factory reset is mandatory. If you are flashing over a previous CM build, cache wipe will be sufficient.
You will need to flash the latest recovery ( CWM or TWRP ) mentioned above for a successful flash.
A nandroid backup is recommended prior to flashing CM in case you get into problems.

1. Flash the recovery using Odin
2. Flash ROM from recovery. Reboot.
3. Reboot to recovery and flash GApps.

A little more detailed guide is available here.

Mods

If you wanna disable hardware keys and enable navigation, user @shaider_516 has created a flashable zip for it. Details available here.

I have created a universal flashable zip. Details are available here.

Issues

• No ringtones if headset is plugged in.Fixed. See here. Will not be required for ROMS post 20140721.
• Offlate, I have noticed users complaining about exfat formatted cards not working. I compile the rom with JustArchi Optimizations and include the fix needed for exfat to work. If it still doesn't work, try flashing this.

LED light still just stays green all the time when connected to a usb port or charging..maybe on the i9200/i9205 it is working correcting..but not on the i527m..but not a big deal as I can disable it at least.

I run stock clock speeds with ondemand instead instead of interactive. Start on boot. No undervolting or profiles ...I quit using setcpu and starting using stock performance from cm.

Can you confirm you have flashed this on the Canadian I527m and it is fir the most part working? I am so sick of tw and this project is one of the few hopes for the Canadian mega

[knives of ice]

could someone please check MHL and tell me if output works? it probably doesn't but i don't want to waste time loading the recovery and get this setup if it doesn't.

the weird thing is it does work on many samsung devices running CM like the GS3 but most likely it doesn't work.

it will probably freeze up and reboot your phone when you try it, but maybe somehow/someway it will work.

I don't get you!!!

Sileshn why do you use 4.6 toolchain?
https://github.com/sileshn/android_device_samsung_meliusltexx/blob/cm-11.0/BoardConfig.mk#L34

Because if i don't, it results in a compile error for the kernel. Check screenshot. And i read somewhere to use the 4.6 toolchain. I don't remember where.

4.7 toolchain error already fixed by me since months

And hauptic feedback is not an issue because AOSP doesn't support it

To enable this feature replace wake dropped with virtual in Generic.kl

Oh yes i have flash each updated rom and they have all worked, not much left wrong with the rom..camera issues but still works..but will be fixed soon, and the led works but just stays as green when connected and MTP not recognized on the pc but that is being looked at..otherwise it works well this rom..give it a whirl and see how you like it, just make a backup of what you have now and try the new CM rom..i think you will like it...but it forsure works on the i527m canadian mega and the TWRP recovery with the kitkat support works great also.

And knives of ice i will check my MHL adapter and see if it works on this phone..will try it in the stock rom first and then in CM rom.

Ok. Will try to compile with 4.7 toolchain.

No luck. Same error. Reverting to 4.6 for the compile. Let me know if something needs to be done from my side.

thanks man.

it definitely works on the stock rom because i use it each and every day, works great. the stock rom is pretty awesome once you install xposed framework - so much more customization.

i am just wondering about mhl on CM and yes I am using the exact same phone as you the canadian mega which imported into the US.
