ROM Firmware Required: Gapps, Unmodified JellyBean Baseband
Version Information
Status: Stable
Current Beta Version: 01-02-15
Beta Release Date: 2014-09-25
Created 2014-09-25
Last Updated 2015-01-02
New feature as of 10/10/14
Plain-Tweak:
Ever wanted to control your kernel from a file on your internal storage? Now you can! There are currently 3 different ways
1.) Manually create a text file on the root of /sdcard named 'plaintweak' with the following values:
gov=(your choice of governor)
maxkhz=(max cpu clockrate for all cores)
minkhz= (min cpu clockrate for all cores)
scheduler=(choice of IO scheduler)
tcpcong=(choice of TCP Congestion control)
2.)Invoking the instruction 'plaintweak' with adb shell or Terminal Emulator.
3.)Separate aroma package for your device(not yet created) or through the rom installer.
When I run 'plaintweak' from aroma package adb shell or Terminal Emulator wouldn't it get overwritten?
No! Not at all. Your old settings are saved at /sdcard/plain-tweak listed by date.
Don't like the values? Want a different configuration? Rather use Performance Control or another app?
Simply rename your current plaintweak file or move an older plaintweak file located in /sdcard/plain-tweak to root of /sdcard.
Custom Density
Currently 3 different ways to set
This can be controlled via the aroma package installer, abd shell/terminal emulator, or through placeholder file
/sdcard/customdensity that contains "customdensity=<value>"
If value is less than 180 it will not set. If value has a difference of 180 from default it will not set. May take 2 reboots to also set properly if using placeholder file only.
With adb shell/terminal emulator:
'buildproptweaks density *180 and up in values of 20 per se
buildproptweaks density 200 then reboot
Custom bootanimation
Must be 1080x1920 and placed at /sdcard/bootani/bootanimation.zip
Bootanimation disabling
There is 3 different ways to disable it.
1. Through aroma installer package
2. With adb shell/terminal emulator:
2a. type in 'bootanimation' it will toggle
2b. type in 'buildproptweaks bootanim [en|dis]able'
Just a little background for this project. With CM dropping legacy support, I started building up a huge kang for the most stability for the HTC Rezound. I found a good mix and stuck with it. FIgure why not bring it over to my new device, so here I am today. As far as my background, got my start in android all the way back to the original droid 1 with slight themeing, jumped up to the HTC Rezound started doing kernel work there alongside minor rom work and now using the LG G2.
Please bring some feedback I WANT TO HEAR IT. This is a heavy mixture and a kang of a ton of different roms. I still have to fix theme manager so bear with me as this is my first ever AOSP rom built. I am now minorly based off AOKP & OmniRom, with some VanirAOSP-esque tweaks written by myself with a few optimizations found that in cumulative. I am big on doing bash scripting and doing command line work.
Hope you enjoy!
Screens? Is it just plain AOSP with no extras?

Got a little optimization mainly stuff that's not customizations wise. Custom GCC stuff like that. Very vanilla for the most part though. I do have quick dim/bright statusbar control in settings->display. Battery around lock ring on lockscreen.
Good stuff. Glad you are deving for us. What kernel is baked in with this?

CM for now.
Found another bug guys; USB tethering likes to drop when the screen sleeps and fixing theme manager as we speak.
Up and running. This ROM flies! For those of you who don't know, Snuzzo is an android Jedi. We are super lucky to have him deving for us. Welcome and thank you!

Thank you @Mindrocket
Not bad for the initial build without nearly any device maintenance done? Am I right? Quick band-aid for the USB tethering; check off stay awake in dev options.
OK to use on G2 that didn't take the 12B update? Would love to give it a shot.

Read OP. Unmount system prior to flashing a second time if first flash comes back failed. I also always put up an md5sum file alongside the zip.
@Xsoldier2000
Should flash the Rez build just for S&G. So happy to see some of the familiar faces, even though you only posted a few times I do remember you.

HA! You still have the Rezzy? Even with all yours and Newts contributions...the rezound was a hot mess that i couldn't wait to unload...and yes I was more of a lurker then...have learned a lot since then.
Again, welcome and cant wait to see what you do to this awesome device.
is this based on r1 or r2? I prefer roms based on r2, all of which seem more fluent and stable...i have had less or zero SoDs, reboots and freezes with roms based off r2
Looks like i picked the right phone. Snuzzo has one. Cant wait to try this out.
Thanks dude
Saw vigor in the downloads folder and it brought me back..

Be sure that you're based on a Froyo FW! CRUCIAL.
2 Sdcards Mount on PC, new Kernel and Prerooted
Version 0.2 New Fixes
Version 0.1 Initial Release
What's working:
MTD
Radio
Audio
GPS
Wifi
Bluetooth
3D
HQ Video PLayback
internal SD-Card
external SD-Card
Most Sensors
What's not working:
Polling problem on RIL (works after lock and unlock)
Compass (works not at 100%)
USB sharing of external SD-Card
commands: reboot recovery, reboot download (maybe not possible to implement)
FM-Radio
TV-Out
The same Like Cyanogenmod
1: Load these files:
2: Copy all files except:
speedmod-kernel-k13c-500hz.tar & cm7-galaxys-initial-kernel.tar
3: Flash speedmod-kernel-k13c-500hz.tar via Odin, wait for reboot and after that shutdown
4: Start via 3-button-combo in recovery mode and install galaxys-efsbackup.zip
5: Pull out battery and in again, start via 3-button-combo via download mode and flash cm7-galaxys-initial-kernel.tar via Odin BUT DON'T check repartition and auto reboot
6: Pull out the USB cable and start (in download mode) with 3-button-combo in recovery mode (waiting until samsung logo appears)
7: Choose "mounts & storage" and format system, data, cache
8: Flash PMDroid AOSP Gingerbread.
not to be an ass but maybe you should give credits to some people and upload your code to a github etc. rep since you are most likely using code of the cm7 project and google.
thx for your work gonna try it
it sounds so well men, great work!
Nice copy and paste from the MIUI thread nah it's cool, looks good but remember to give cred to all involved .

This seems like a project heavily based off the work of the CM7 team and other kernel devs, only without the inherent benefits of CyanogenMod and the work the experienced developers have put into it. Exactly what is the benefit of this project?
Am I right in thinking you could take any nexus s rom and just slap this or bilboas kernel on it?

Some people consider cm to be bloated as it comes with excessive features not required by some users.
Bloat == less responsive. So w/e there's cm builds, u'll see aosp builds.
Why ? One simple reason, u get stock and nothing but stock.

To be honest I don't think there is any measurable difference in performance between CM and AOSP on a device like the Galaxy S...IMO the features outweigh any preconceived ideas about slower performance that aren't really based reality. But if it's all about the clean AOSP "feeling" then go right ahead.

Yup i completely agree, especially on these high end devices.
This idea of having aosp clean builds originated however from previous generation devices such as g1,magic...etc where aosp builds seemed to be preferred by a lot.

My brother uses a G1 and on their it's clear that in order for Froyo or Gingerbread to be usable it needs to be as light as possible. But this primarily pertains to memory usage...CM6/7 is pretty smooth, just apps don't stay open.
On Galaxy S I don't really think pure AOSP has any tangible benefits over CM7 which is quite obviously based on AOSP. For instance, MIUI, while it should feel more "bloated," feels 100% the same performance wise as CM7 which is great (they share kernel etc. so that makes sense)
Hey Guys,
I installed this on my cappy cause I wanted less bloat. Change the lib files for auto-rotation and flashed bilboas kernel. Working fine. Issue is this dosen't have root. How would I go about doing that? I tried super one click, but it freezes the app. Any help would be appreciated.

Have you done any reading? This project is entirely dependent on the work that codeworkx and the CM7 team has been doing. This project won't "overtake it"; I doubt this dev (no offense to OP) has anywhere near the experience or technical ability to troubleshoot problems with AOSP on Galaxy S like codeworkx, dumdidum, et all have been doing for months.
Battery drain on CM7 (and other ROMs that utilize its work like MIUI) is worse than Samsung based ROMs, sure. But it's not "crazy" at all and for my usage patterns isn't even a problem...I charge every night anyway. To me it's either one full day, or two full days, not in between. I've never had a ROM last me through two full days, therefore, I need to charge every night and it doesn't matter if I have 20% or 40% left.
Change of plans, hopefully with the help of anyone who is willing I'd like to compile an aosp build for the Sprint GS2 from source instead of trying to hack a port together, as suggested in this thread and other places, it just feels like it will be a lot more of a fruitful experience for all involved and have a better end result.
(a big thank you to everyone who so far have been super encouraging and friendly with noob questions, it's much appreciated!, I hope that if you wanted to help with the port you'll help with this build as well!)
This is a WIP. Starting out with Samsung's open source platform and kernel instructions on how to build from aosp and I'll take it from there.
I've setup some repos to get this all started in one place:
Samsung SPH-D710 platform source - https://github.com/thefredelement/sph-d710_platform_source
Samsung SPH-D710 kernel source - https://github.com/thefredelement/sph-d710_kernel_source
Team Hacksburg kernel source - https://github.com/thefredelement/android_kernel_samsung_c1spr
Stock kernel initramfs (thanks buddy323!) - https://github.com/thefredelement/stock-initramfs-eg30-epic-4g-touch
https://github.com/thefredelement/Samsung-Galaxy-S2-Sprint-Epic-4G-Touch-AOSP-Build - will be where the build will live after I push over Samsung's platform make and upload it!
--- old stuff that will make your head spin ---
If anyone wants to continue working on this, feel free.
This is my attempt to get get a pure aosp build of android 2.3.5 for the Sprint Galaxy S2. I've never done anything like this before and it's mostly hacked together pieces of two different ROMs. I guess you can call this a "learning" experience.
THIS ROM JUST BOOTS AND NOTHING ELSE REALLY WORKS, THIS IS A WORK IN PROGRESS AND I POSTED IT HERE TO SEE IF ANYONE CAN HELP, THIS IS NOT A DAILY DRIVER, NOT EVEN CLOSE.
THIS HAS ONLY BEEN RUN ON MY PHONE, EVERYTHING IS FINE ON MY PHONE AND I CAN RESTORE A NANDROID BACK TO STOCK AND EVERYTHING STILL WORKS FINE BUT I MAKE NO GUARANTEES FOR YOUR PHONE. IF YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING I WOULD STOP READING NOW
This rom is based on AdamG's devnull-test aosp rom for the Euro Galaxy S2. (post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1183063)
Credit must be given to AdamG for his rom in the first place, bubby323 for his help on IRC and kpkimmel at ACS for the Gerbal V1 beta ROM (post: http://www.forums.acsyndicate.net/showthread.php/2734-ROM-Gerbal-v1-beta-ROM) which I used for guidance for the build.prop and updater script.
I am not trying to steal anyone's work or take credit for anything, I really just want a pure AOSP rom for the Sprint GS2 and would love anyone's help as far as guidance, code, a guide I haven't found, anything would be great, thanks.
Known bugs:
- No radios
- No Wifi
- When wifi is on (or trying to turn on) the screen turns on/off as if a process is restarting
- Orientation sensor is out of whack (disable auto rotate so it doesn't drive you crazy)
- Home button & search button do not work
- Something FCs real fast on first boot but android setup starts
- Distortion on the touch screen occasionally
Known positives:
- No real FCs
- I added the Nexus S boot animation
- Calculator, gallery, etc. all work fine
What I've done so far:
Based on buddy323's advice in IRC, I've brought over vendor, firmware, wifi, vold, egl and hw from the Gerbal v1 rom to the devnull rom.
I used the wipe partition section of the Gerbal update script and then the symlinks/permissions from the devnull script (I removed the kernel installation as this rom doesn't come with a kernel). My approach has been to go through as much as I can on devnull and change out anything that's platform specific to the sph-d710.
I'm sure there's a bunch of noob happening in this rom and I'd appreciate it if you can call me out on it and tell me where to look to make it right.
Installation:
Install via clockworkmod, this will wipe /system /data so I'd erase your user data before flashing.
I've been booting this with the stock kernel.
Link: you don't want this...
Reserved for changelog, when hopefully it gets that far
Awesome to see a project like this, good luck in the port!

You are under no obligation to install anything posted on XDA. If it doesn't work, report. If you don't like it, don't use it. Help, don't hinder. If you have nothing to contribute, then sit down, shut up and wait for someone to do it and allow you to participate. It's that simple folks.
Now keep this on topic or infractions and/or mandatory vacations will be handed out.
I would highly recommend you get to grips with the aosp source and learn to build them for the device instead of cobbling a mix of aosp and stock Samsung roms together. You will also need an aosp compatible kernel and stock kernel is not. There is a list of patches to the aosp kernel in the SGS2 section and on team hacksung's github. Good luck.

I recall rumor about samsung sending a GS2 to Cyanogen so that he could "get to work". Guess that never materialized - or they gave him something else to do once they hired him...
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
it was one of the cyanogen devs that got a galaxy2 & they have nightlies for the gs2 now.... It should not be hard to get it ported over

One of the devs on teamhacksung was asking for people with the phone to help with it ..he ask on twitter like the 16th so they are probably working on it....

So I am here to present upon thee my newest and likely last ROM for the Galaxy W: The Kezra Value Pack!
So what's new in this ROM compared to Kezra V4?
Well first off it's based off of the newest EUR firmware by Samsung, the infamous Value Pack that adds Face Unlock among other features to our phone (if you want a full changelist, look it up, Google is your friend). As per usual in a custom ROM, this one is rooted, deodexed, busybox'd and all that pretty stuff.
The custom Kernel present in this ROM is Cowithgun's latest modification of the Arco68 kernel for our phones. It adds tons of neat features, among the biggest on them being the ability to overclock your phone up to 1800MHz should you want to.
I can assure you the ROM is quite stable and should work without a hitch.
As for differences with Kezra V4 in terms of the applications inside here's the quick rundown:
1. I have dropped my arrogance and included most apps that people want (except for Polaris Office) and use. If you don't want a certain app, feel free to use Titanium Backup to remove it.
2. This ROM was shaped to be as close a copy of Cow's V7 ROM except that I have put an emphasis on the Gaming/Social aspect and left the Game and Social hubs from the TouchWiz Framework (CowPanel and Zeam are also included).
3. Kept the Samsung boot animation and sound because I think it's prettier that way
So here's the download links for those that want it:
Part 1: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?evegdav60862a48
Part 2: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?a2881jow2u2782m
(use HJSplit to join the 2 files and make the update zip)
Instructions:
1. Download files;
2. Join files using HJSplit;
3. Copy ZIP to SDCard;
4. Format system/cache/data
5. Flash ROM
6. ????
7. Profit!
F.A.Q.
(1) Will this ROM work on the Exhibit 2 4G?
A: No idea. Ask the devs for the Exhibit 2. The hardware is quite similar but some things do differ.
(2) Is this CM7?
A: No, it is not. I unfortunately do not have the time to dedicate to porting CM7 over to the SGW. I am sorry
(3) What are the advantages of this ROM over stock?
A: It is rooted and much faster. Try it out yourself.
(4) Will you update this further?
A: Probably not. Only if there are CRITICAL bugs that need fixing.
(5) Is this overclockable?
A: Why, yes it is. Glad you asked
Version History:
V1: Initial Version
Changes are listed in Post #1
V1.1: Fixed Version
- Implemented Arco's Bionic optimizations (thanks to Cow)
- Fixed CowPanel to actually do something.
Special Thanks:
Arco68 for helping me guiding me in this odyssey that is making Android builds and teaching me how the updater-script thing works and for allowing me to test some stuff which really helped me release this. Also for his custom Ancora kernel dsixda for his awesome kitchen in which I cooked this ROM.
dsixda for his awesome kitchen in which I cooked this ROM and adapting it to our phones
cowithgun for his superb work with overclocking and tweaking Arco's kernel.
Awesome... Thought you stopped your work on custom ROMS for wonder... Great to have you back. Are you going to use latest kernel from cow ROM no.7?

I have "stopped". I am just doing this because I believe EU users need and kinda deserve an EU ROM with most features from Cow's Kernel. And yes, I am using the kernel from Bionic Cow nº7
edit: atm I have a booting alpha ROM that already has the custom kernel and is rooted+busybox. Just testing a few things out, then it's on to the beta phase.
Well in that case, thank you kindly Sir
To be honest I almost lost hope for new euro ROM, that could be compared to cow's ROMS. Fortunately we have you

I will try to replicate Cow's ROM to the best of my ability although there are a few slight changes that deviate more from our stance when it comes to using a phone. He has removed the entire Social Framework (and the GameHub) from the TouchWiz framework, while I opt to keep it (I like my Gaming/Social stuff). On the other hand I opt to remove pointless bloatware like PolarisOffice (which sucks) and other stuff that is inserted in there just to occupy space.
edit: done and uploading.
Nice m8 glad to see you back

Thank you very much bro.
A quick ROM update is coming today, with the Bionic optimizations and a bugfix to CowPanel. But that should be the last version of the ROM.
Waiting for updates!
Thanks kezra for your work!

Anyway, will I have to wipe everything again with v2? I just finished reinstalling :-D
Sent from my GT-I8150 using XDA
Unfortunately I always set my ROMs to wipe everything to avoid issues... You can always back them up with titanium backup, or not update. The fixes are minor anyway. But you'll see when I update the thread in about 2h

Not update is impossibile, I have some sort of compulsion that forces me to have everything at the latest avaiable version
Anyway I understand why you set it to wipe, I'll just install everything again. Restoring with Titanium often leads to issues :-D
I'm already working on the 14 toggle MOD based on this ROM.

FuguMod is a secure, open, reliable and no nonsense kernel
This is probably the only custom kernel for the Nexus 5 which adds security instead of removing it.
Current features are:
- compiled with linaro gcc4.7.4
- various small fixes
You can download the kernels at:
http://fugumod.org/nexus5
Source and changelog can be found here:
https://github.com/renaudallard/nexus5_kernel
IRC channel:
irc.freenode.net #fugumod
Flashing
Kernel zips are intended to be flashed with CWM ot TWRP, if you want to flash using fastboot, you need to unpack the zip and flash the boot.img which is inside
Versions
Kernels are based on the below version scheme
kernel_FuguMod_20131104_r1-4.4.img
20131104 is the date it has been packaged
r1 is the release number
4.4 is the ROM it is compatible with
Stable vs Testing
There are sometimes kernels in testing folder. These may be very stable or may not boot at all. Be sure to have an USB cable and fastboot under the hand if you try one of these. That said, in general, if they stay into testing folder for more than 15 min, they should at least boot and work more or less. I tend to remove non booting kernels from testing folder in less than 10 min (depending a little bit on the speed testers take them), and so if you see them one hour later, you should assume they are safe enough to flash.
So, in general Stable is the safest bet, but Testing may be the best. I, myself, generally run testing one.
Deprecated folder
In general, unless you really know what you are doing, you should avoid flashing those, they are mainly there for historical reasons.
Check for vulnerabilities
http://www.xray.io
Compatibility with hackish style apps
All apps which require direct memory write, access to symbols or memory offsets or modules will NOT work. And, no, don't ask they won't be supported in the future. Example: Arararagi's light is only provided as a module and will not be supported unless he produces a patch.
Security
If you want good security when your phone is stolen, in addition to encryption, don't forget to turn debugging off. Also, use enpasschanger to change your encryption password, any short PIN encryption can be cracked in a few minutes easily (for example, using my script at http://pastebin.com/Mdu06RZN)
Redistribution
As per GPL, you are authorized to redistribute this kernel with any of your custom ROMs provided you give out the source code like I do. You can link to my github in your distribution site.
However, if you modify the kernel yourself, whatever the modification is (compiling it yourself with a different compiler is a modification), you are not authorized to name it FuguMod, although you can credit me and tell the base comes from FuguMod but you cannot call the kernel itself FuguMod.

Glad to see you here renaud. I loved your Galaxy Nexus kernels.
First test version is now available
If anyone can confirm it was flashed correctly and boots, that would be great.
I'll test it right after the postman makes me happy

flashed kernel_FuguMod_20131104_r1-4.4.zip and it reboots to bootloader.
Hello @renaud.
It's really nice to find a lot of people coming from Galaxy Nexus to the Nexus 5. As the Galaxy Nexus is an oldie (yes, two years), there are less and less threads supported. I hope, you will still support the Galaxy Nexus - but also the Nexus 5, of course. Good to have you in here! :laugh:

I suppose you meant you flashed with fastboot.
Whatever, till how far does it go?
I am wondering, did you unpack the zip and flashed boot.img through fastboot, or did you flash the whole zip through fastboot??
I'm glad you got the new nexus because I've been waiting for your kernels for awhile now.

tried out your kernel, alot of nice features but stock seemed to run faster. cant wait to see what the community has to offer over the next couple of months. pushing the phone to its limits / extending battery life.

Thank you for confirming that it boots. Currently it has no features except being smaller than the stock one. I was waiting for the boot confirmation before developing.
Nice to see you again Renaud. Glad to be owning a device you're deving on again.
I have now received my N5. Real stuff will begin.
OK, thanks for some reporting as booting, but in fact it does not because my img doesn't support dtb yet.
Glad you got the phone and now hopefully fugukernel updater will work for this phone.

I was not doing it myself, but I guess I can ask for the code to not have to rewrite everything by myself
r3 is out.
It boots and is compiled with linaro GCC 4.8
Further optimizations are on the road.
Whats with colour calibration?

INSTALLATION PROCEDURE:
Root & Install custom recovery: (Only needed if you haven't done this yet)
- Flash CF-Root for your model with Odin
- Make sure you have an custom recovery installed (I advise you to use TWRP http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=60248409 Thanks @eosphoros (This trips your KNOX warranty counter!)
Install the ROM

I would NOT recommend to restore system apps or app data of your apps with Titanium backup, only the apps themselves.
Restoring App data or System apps can cause problems with the apps. (This applies to any ROM!)

This one isn't. Lol don't think this is the only one around. His leaner meaner brother just hasn't made it yet. Lol I wanted to get one out here so people would have a recovery Flashable ROM and other does might kickstart into their amazing Stock Modded roms. ??
Feels good to see something in here lol...... Hope this gets some devs going
I downloaded the rom and installed it on my GS6, but wifi never connected. I'll have to reflash it to provide a logcat to see what the issue is.
you know this was for the edge, correct?

Alright I am now all set after work to start testing stuff. I am going to flash now and test. Might have to edit some stuff. I just made sure it flashed and booted with no FCs so it isn't really tested.

Welp going to take a look see what magic i can do with this without the device ..
thanks for jumping in on this! :good:
For wifi we need to use static Ip. Working on a fix.
Just letting you all know, I'm the only member from Team Acid who has this device, but we will be working on getting some things out for this awesome device. As you can see, we have @RaverX3X working some magic on the ROM side of things, and we have @dsexton702 working on something to do with the Edge Technology. We would have a few people (@bhundven, @FBis251, @jeffsf, and @m4xm4n) working on the kernel end of things, but it would be hard since I'm the only S6 Edge owner on the team and I know nothing on compiling kernels and its very dificult to do without the device. Anyway, patience is a virtue. We'll have something for this device soon.
Someone should make a thread about ideas for what tricks/shortcuts they would like to see on the edge hardware e.g flashlight, gestures etc.
