[BETA][5.1.1] CyanogenMod 12.1 by tank0412 [A500CG][A501CG]

[tank0412]

Bug list:

• GPS & FM

What is working:

• Media (IT IS FIXED) But Youtube can be dead
• Audio (IT IS FIXED)
• RIL (baseband) (IT IS FIXED)
• Touchscreen xD
• Image decoding
• MTP
• Webview
• Camera
• Sensors
• Houdini
• Wi-FI

Rom features:

• It was build from fresh CM12.1 source (November stagefright patch is included)
• I used proprietary files from WW 3.24.40.87
• I used device tree by quanganh2627 for building so this way community will get all fixes
• Custom kernel which was built from X Anwar sources so it has underclock, DT2W, million governors and i/o stuff.

How to flash it:

Step 1:
You should download files for flashing:
File with CM12.1 rom:
Google Drive
ADB v1.0.32: Download from Google Drive
TWRP 2.8.7.0 recovery by quanganh2627 (new December build): Download from Google Drive
Step 2:
1) Unpack archive with ADB and put TWRP image there.
2) Copy file with rom and gapps to internal/external memory of your phone.
3) Then you should reboot your phone in the droidboot mode. (turn off you gadget then press Turn off button and volume + button)
Then go to the ADB folder and hold Shift + Right Mouse button and write this command:

fastboot flash recovery new-zen5-reco.img

Then you should reboot your phone in the recovery mode. (turn off you gadget then press Turn off button and volume - button)
Step 3:
Then you phone will reboot in the recovery. In the recovery you should instal package with rom.
Step 4:
After flashing, you should format (not wipe) data and cache in the TWRP.
Then you should reboot to system.

Thanks for this. I assume this is compiled from the latest source code (as of 2016-01-03), right?
Would you mind putting this on the OP, especially when you has an update version in the future.
I haven't tried this rom, waiting for audio fixed.

One thing that I don't understand, I see other offical cm12.1 rom size is about 250MB, but why zen5 get double size?
Firstly, I thought we will get a very small minimum rom size but it seems not that much different to Asus stock (after remove bloatware).

I could not download latest CM source so it was built from October source.
Many trash from Asus stock were added by quanganh2627's device tree.
I agree that this trash must be removed.

why you can't download the lastest CM source ?
i wait for the bug fixed, and will download this ROM. But right now is to much CM12.1 build for Zenfone 5 so i'm confused which one i must flash on my devices.

 

[adamilmanns]

Awesome. Hope u will build CM13

 

[Parliamert]

Is it really that hard to fix GPS and FM Radio for AOSP based ROMs?

I'm dying for a clean AOSP based ROM but I can't flash it in these circumstances; no audio and no GPS :/

Threre are only THREE CM12.1 builds. First build was made by Tran Huu Tin, second build was made by KnoneNull and third build was compiled by me.
If you find build by other author, you must understand that it was not built from source. It is a just modificated build by Knone or Tran Huu Tin with a minor changes.
So it is an easy choice.

By the way, i can not download latest source due to my Internet provider. I mean i can not use repo tool to sync sources due to it.

I plan to fix audio but nobody can fix GPS because Broadcom and Asus have not published enough source code for this yet.

Okay thanks, so i will prepared for download your build if stable versions is released, with fixed bugs.

But what about this one ?

I'm confused now. Do you mean your compile is also based on Tran's and Knone's source.
If this the case, it is not different to those then.

For sync source code, do you mean your internet provider block github or it is too slow to download latest source?
If it is latter, maybe, someone can help sync source and upload it to other website?

I denied using my build as base for other custom roms. So nobody will use my build as base for their custom rom.
My build was really compiled from CM source like Knones build or Tran Huu Tins build.
My provider block repo tool so i can not use it. If somebody upload latest CM12.1/AOSP 5.1.1 code to other website, i will download it and this way i will use it for custom rom building.

It is just modificated build by Knone. It was not built from source.
