How to install the rom ?

• Restart in recovery (squid or Sevenmaxs)
• Take a backup of existing ROM.
• Wipe clean (Cache, Data, Dalvik/ART, System)
• Install ROM.
• Make a wipe cache.

[gfarina]

Awesome work! Works fine, no bugs until right now, BUT
one thing about the moto devices that i love, is the moto actions and the moto display, how to keep them?
Have some flashable lib from stock? Can you Add or teach how to use it? I need one hand navigation on the fingerprint sensor.

Thx

Great work...i was trying for this but failed...now u can expect Oreo ROMs too

Happy new year.

NFC is not working. I don't see it in the settings.
Tomorrow more time....

Anyone drop screenshots

Anyone drop screenshots

Tomorrow I will do. But its just lineage 14.1.
The ROM is based on the stock version. Some services are still from Motorola.

Following bug I found:
The first time you watch a full screen video. You will get a message about it. Portrait modes there is no problem but in landscape you will see a weird thing happening with the message and the video.

Thanks so much for developping a rom for this device, because not a lot a developper make something for this device contrary to the dev arround the moto g5s plus. And happy new year.

Thank you very much for making a rom for the Moto G5S. Are you aware of the bug in the developer options and Moto Actios does not work? Sorry for any mistake in English.

Yes. I am aware of the issues you mentioned.
@govind1233, I have published kernel code as well https://github.com/kayesk/android_kernel_motorola_msm8937.

Can someone confirm NFC support in this device? Mine is XT1795 (India) and I don't see NFC support.

Also I have one confusion. If I add MotoActions apk to code, will it interfere with CMActions?

Thanks
KS

 

[govind1233]

Please release kernel sources

I have the XT1794 with NFC. I dont see the nfc in settings.
I also try to get it working.
Maybe its something with settings.apk??? Did you also copy that from the G5???
@kalyansundhar
Are now working building or still copying and pasting? you can better upload your system.img and boot.img to github(extract).

Well, I am doing little bit here and there with whatever limited experience I have.

My main concern now is my lack of understanding on how everything fits in the big picture. And without knowing it if I make some change that shouldn't be screwing up something which works fine.

I think it is better for me to stop here, so that good developers could take it further. Anyway the repositories are public.

I cannot push system.img to github because of file size limitation. File size is 900MB and allowed limit is 100MB.

I would share it in my onedrive account and publish the link.

Bugs so far:
1) Developer options - Getting selinux permission issue which is blocked by global rule. I don't know how to override a global rule.
2) Moto Actions - Not working.
3) NFC - Getting zygote error related to seapp_context.

Looks like all 3 issues boils down to selinux, file contexts, uevent permissions.
