Sailfish OS 2.0.5.6 (alpha) for Zuk Z1 (ham)

[tradiz]

Tried everything I could but still couldn't get it to boot.
Used Official TWRP this time, flashed as per instructions but simply can't get past boot logo.
Attaching TWRP log with the post, didn't notice anything unusual.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Or if someone who has successfully booted can share the ROM version they were initially using, TWRP versions etc.... I'd be very thankful

I had stock CM 12.1 YOG4P ROM on Zuk Z1 at first. After unlocking device I've just wiped everything and installed CM 12.1 YOG7D (same as used in OP-post) with TWRP (twrp-3.0.2-0-Z1.img) from dl.twrp.me/Z1/. That's all.
Since there is broken USB connection in this image, I need to figure out how we can fix it, even temporarily, for you to get some logs on boot process. I'll try to find solution, give me some time.

Actually mate I was just going to update about my progress here.
I somehow ended up getting my device hard bricked in the most unusual manner (phone ran totally out of battery and wouldn't get charged and showed absolutely no signs of life)
So I had to send it to service center. I thought it was an issue with battery or motherboard had malfunctioned but they simply restored firmware (wiped internal storage in the process). Unfortunately I forgot to note what was the exact version of firmware or COS.
I simply flashed TWRP, wiped system, dalvik/cache and flashed Sailfish OS according to the instructions and it worked, flawlessly!
Now I'm on Resurrection Remix N 5.8.2 and will try flashing Sailfish OS.... Hopefully the results will be desirable.

Thanks for your response and many thanks to the developer for porting it to our device. It was a lovely experience using it.

I believe I'm using the same baseband.... I was about to flash Stock COS and try again but like you just stated it's been tested with the same baseband version.

I should perhaps use official TWRP but I believe that would make little difference since flashing both zips was successful.

which is the rom in the screenshot ?

FAQ
Does it support VoLTE?
Nope. Please don't make any requests. If zuk releases the VoLTE enabled modem firmware then there is possibility.
Does it run Android Apps?
Nope. There is a chance but still not available.
Playstore?
It has an inbuilt Jolla store which is pointless as they provide that for Licensed devices only (Jolla C, Intex...)
You can download Harbour-Warehouse from openrepos.net

tried mtp mode to charge ....same problem...
tried switching it off and charging....didn't work either...

well only way to charge ur phone in sailfish OS alpha version is to boot to recovery and charge it...

and the problem where we can't accept calls over lock screen ... tried putting no device pin but still doesn't work

There is mess with power supplies drivers in current image which in result gives wrong data about battery and charger status read by statefs daemon. As temporary&dirty hack you can run "systemctl stop statefs" from terminal as root, plug-in charger for time enough for full charge (there is no indication for charging, but it works), unplug cable and run "systemctl start statefs" after.

Interesting, I met this bug on other port with same SFOS version.

Go to "Settings" -> "Developer mode" page and get root password or set your own. Then open Terminal app, type in "devel-su" command, then enter password you set/got earlier. That's it.

I didn't even try to get some logs for "calls" bug since i'm trying to fix this battery problem, it's most critical atm.
You can help - try to catch this calls bug and get logs in the moment of incoming call:

Connect your device to Internet, then run in Terminal with root rights:
zypper in mce-tools
mcetool --set-verbosity=debug

Now try to reproduce this bug when someone is calling you - when it's done, get back to Terminal and type:
journalctl -b -e > /home/nemo/mce.log
chown nemo:nemo /home/nemo/mce.log

Now you can connect to your device via any SCP-client (WinSCP for example) and get this file from /home/nemo directory, then pastebin it or just send to me. You can get phone's IP-address on the same Developer's page.

after installing it for the 3rd time somehow it works
....
i guess the reason is because i didn't start the tutorial...so my first call that i received was over lock screen and it showed instructions to accept/reject the call ...there on everything works fine

next time i get this issue using sailfish with calls i'll surely provide you with the logs

 

[zangetsuzuk]

the work around for calls to work is

as the tutorial starts press start tutorial and lock the screen , now upon unlocking the screen u can c that u skipped the tutorial part...

now try calling to ur phone if u still c black screen double press volume button....
u get options to decline and leave message , if u swipe down u can accept the call

media doesn't play from default media apps or any other music players from wearhouse app...

vibrations won't work and can't play songs via Bluetooth

if u guys can fix this...then its a great daily driver since lenovo keeps promising us updates but didn't even release a single ota to a android version ...
anything that v got was for cm12.1....incremental updates.....

now with this Sailfish Os port...
atleast there is something totally new we can try .



awesome job guys :good::laugh:

 

[zangetsuzuk]

can't play music...
found some methods,in one plus one forms but didn't workout

most of the zuk z1 specs r same as that of one plus one...
thought if i used some lib files from that to fix audio it would work but unfortunately it didn't ...
i even tried to change directory so sailfish can read my sd card by default ...
that too didn't go well coz i did something wrong i guess

 

[zangetsuzuk]

c'mon guys
is no one excited about sailfish os?
i mean after reading one plus one forms...
i find few people r actually testing sailfish or few don't know that there is a page in xda...


i mean zuk z1 is advanced version of oneplus one...
it has all the desired qualities....good battery, fingerprint scanner, camera,metal frame
then y does one plus still receive all the fame and not zuk z1
