Thanks Avamander! I'll test your ROM asap! Thank you again for your efforts!
ps: is the new build including the WiFi CRAK fix?
ps2: do you have any resource where to find any guide to compile it?

About CRACK, haven't checked, not sure a patch has been released for LOS11, if it has after the build date, let me know and I'll rebuild it.

I used the this https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/d855/build but replaced d855 in commands with d605 and manually downloaded the sources to the according folders.

@Avamander: I tried to install your LineageOS ROM on top of a CM11 (by Varchain, the v11 release), but I get a "Status 7" error.

The error reports "set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed"

Checked the MD5 of the ZIP file and it is correct, both on my PC and on the SD.
Can you help me with the installation?

Did you wipe /system (and /cache) and are you using TWRP v2.6.3.0 (that's what I use)?

I was using a CWM version 2, and I had to update to the latest v3 (from Varchain, :
https://mega.nz/#!QXZUnbwQ!BRI3ENa-53StAjr2Tq1R-hmyIJ9ZDERWIAxXpx9Hye4) and it is now installing. Or do you suggest to update to TWRP?

I'll test it now.

Let me know if the latest works. If it doesn't, let me know if TWRP works

Ok, CWM v3 installed and Lineage-v11 installed, too.
The install went OK. Few issues encountered so far:
1. looks like the phone WiFi is configured for US area (thus, only channels 1-11 are working, but not mine, as it was configured on channel 13. I had to use https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1982149 to properly fix it. Would be great if the ROM comes with the 1-13 set of channels.

2. Installing TitaniumBackup: install ok, but it did not run, ADB reported "libtitanium.so not found". Looks like the v8.1.0 is not able to extract the ARM library. I had to extract it from the APK (found here https://www.androidapksfree.com/apk/titanium-backup-apk-latest-version-download/download/) and manually push the library with "adb push libtitanium.so /data/data/com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup/files/"

Couldn't find anywhere else why those errors are caused. Do you have the same behaviour?

btw: thanks for your effort in keeping the D605 alive

I will investigate the WiFi issue... The TiBu issue, sounds weird, though a lot of old exploits have been patched and some apps might be expecting they exist. Though in my case I could install TiBu without issues from Google Play. I updated the planned task list.

Thank you!
As a side note: CWM v3 is also able to lokify the ROM after flashing Varchain added it "because I am lazy" (cit.)

That means it would still break the signature if I would release a signed image.

Quick update: the offline-charging is not working.
Switching off the phone and connecting the charger will boot up the phone in the default mode, not "only charging".

I know this might be a minor bug but auto brightness doesn't work.

Never has, never will, there's no brightness sensor hardware.

Oh. Thanks for clearing that up. All in all its mostly stable. :good:

Another thing i noticed is that some system processes crash at random times. And if I have my own wallpaper set if that happens and I reboot the device it resets.

Seen that happen a few times, but without logs of the crash I can't help you.

1. Please remove the space character from the link to md5 for ROM.zip. I think it is easier to place a checksum instead of a link.

Has the file changed on the server, has it been refreshed or something else?

Is there really a reason to clean Internal storage and sdcard?

> 1. Please remove the space character from the link to md5 for ROM.zip. I think it is easier to place a checksum instead of a link.
It's more work to create the file for the recovery to verify it. The space is part of the link.

Nope

Internal storage? If you mean /data, yes, but /sdcard doesn't need to be wiped.

As a sidenote, I've been rebuilding the entire system today, will see if that brings back the WiFi.
