[ROM][UNOFFICIAL][12][S]LineageOS 19.1 for z5c (suzuran)

[Berni-0815]

I really don't know if my or any other custom ROM can be installed on a docomo device.

 

[1ggn3]

I have a weird issue with my Z5C, where it will boot to Android, and after less than a minute, it will just hard-reboot. Nothing in the logs, it just goes into reset. I have re-flashed this and MindTheGapps, no change. Weirdly enough, Android safe mode works fine. So it is not the hardware.

Has anyone else recently tried MTG? Is there any chance I can get around a "factory reset"?

 

[Berni-0815]

Try it without GApps!

Try it without GApps!

So this would require the GApps "survival script" to be removed/deactivated before flashing the ROM?

 

[Berni-0815]

I've never removed any GApps! I've always made a clean install of the ROM itself...

Try to set SELinux to permissive mode. I think it's a SELinux issue.

I can't reproduce a crash. Neither los19.1 nor los20.

 

[Berni-0815]

I have to correct myself: Los20 with MindTheGApps shows unreproducible random crashes. Until now I dunno why and I'm working on it.
But I think, it's not at my side and has to do with the (so my idea) early beta build of MindTheGApps...

Setenforce 0 right after boot stopped the crashing. Sadly, my banking app (which is the reason why I installed GApps) doesn't like that. I've rebooted, now SELinux is back to enforcing, and at least in the five minutes since, it hasn't crashed.

I don't know what caused or fixed it, but it seems to work fine now. Thanks for your help!

How did you get a banking app to work on a rooted phone? I have tried but seems impossible. Depends of the app of course, some are more thorough in checking about the rooted status.

Another question I have is about the camera. Did not find a clear answer on this topic. So is it now working in full 21M resolution with a viewfinder and all? Or what does "New: Camera fully working!" mean.

For using banking app, you have to hide the root, in Magisk settings :

- Change the name and the icon of Magisk.
- Activate "zygisk" and you can exclude some apps from root.
- Use those two modules : "Shamiko" and "SafetyNet".

Thank you!! Both banking apps work now that failed before. Problem was simply that I did not have those Shamiko and SafetyNet modules.

I wanted to tell you that the camera is fully working:

• camera itself
• flash
• torch
• audio/video

I've never meant, that 23MP does work.

I have not rooted the phone - to be precise, I haven't installed Magisk, SuperSu and so on.

For SELinux, I just enabled ADB Root in the settings, then, I quickly ran `adb root` and `adb shell setenforce 0`.

However, as I said, my banking app did not like that - I don't know if the SELinux tripped it, or the adb root, so I set that switch back to off after I restarted it.

Now, I have no ADB Root enabled, SELinux is enforcing, and Safetynet / banking works fine.

I installed the rom and everything seems to work fine.
However, if I try to download a file using the browser, I always get a "download failed" notification.
Also Aurora store seems to be unable to download and install apps.

F-droid instead works.

I have given the browser access to storage and tried with more than one browser app.

What could I be missing?

I solved fixing the contexts from TWRP

 

[1ggn3]

Weird. Did you close any important-looking permission popups? Here, both the built-in browser and aurora work.

Maybe try to delete all the data for Aurora, to start it up fresh? (Long-press, app info, storage, delete all)

Also, you can get several "full" browsers from F-Droid, the FFUpdater app that can download FF, Brave, Chromium..

New version out; see 1st post.

• Android security patch level: 5 November 2022

New version out; see 1st post.

• Camera now fully working

Both shipped camera app *) and OpenCamera are fully working and shows the viewfinder/preview.
Unfortunately this leads to the maximum of 8,3 MP for the main camera.
If you prefer 23 MP, you should remove OpenCamera and install this version of this app instead. Go to the settings and choose the option "Open Legacy for Camera1 API". With that you get 23 MP back, but no viewfinder/preview.

*) I've removed the newer Camera2 app and replaced it with the slightly older Snap app, which let you set where the taken pictures will be stored.

A quick question about the camera: I installed the version of Open Camera linked above. It indeed provides 23MP but "no viewfinder" seems to mean that the screen remains black, ie. I cannot see what I'm photographing. At least that's what happened to me.
Although I appreciate the quirkiness of taken pictures blindly once in a while, I wanted to ask if there's any chance to get any camera-app working with screen on and 23MP? I know it's not a big issue (I only realised the 8MP-limitation recently) but it seems like a waste to have a 23MP-lens and only be able to use it for less than half its capacity.
Apart from different versions of Open Camera, I also tried Libre Camera (from F-Droid) but that neither providess a working implementation of the needed legacy API.
Any suggestions?

We don't know any.

Oups! Forgotten to answer this:
YES! Download all needed sources, reverse engineer the libraries, change and rebuild them.
