This rom not support drm keys, because used different libs & app. You can use gcam mod with hdr+ and get good photos

Stuck in bootloop...
Thanks for the great work!
Is there any 120hz option in the settings?
So far, after following your instructions, I've been stuck on the Android logo on boot.
Any suggestions? This is flashing from stock firmware 12.75, factory resetting through TWRP, flashing aosp.zip, shutting the phone off, fastboot flashing the other yoshino img, and restarting.
Excited to see where this goes! Esp. once the fingerprint issues are sorted out.

Can add md5?Because the file size of the file I downloaded and Google Drive is different

wow~Great! but is the photo better than before(Sony ROM)?

Thread cleaned
Keep on topic and English only please.

Great ROM, however, I'm noticing you can't update the system webview from the one that is included (it's version 61.something?).
I've tried installing Chrome / Android System Webview / etc and changing the Webview Implemetation in Developer Options to one of them instead, but they don't show up in the options.
I've also tried installing those applications to system through the OpenGapps full installer, but then no options at all show up under Webview Implementation (it appears the old one is removed but the new one is not recognized).
I did some research and found this:
https://github.com/opengapps/opengapps/wiki/Notes-for-Android-7.x
It would seem before the ROM is built, it has to have specified compatible webviews. Is there any way around this right now?
Thanks so much!!

Thread updated
new_20.03.18

Enjoy!

Me too. It doesn´t work. I tried it four or five times but it won´t boot.
What I did:
I entered TWRP and wiped (Advanced wipe-> System, Dalvik, cache, Data)
I installed Zip and Gapps and shutdown the phone.
I installed software via Fastboot
I started the phone and it stuck on android logo.

One thing that come in my mind is your encrypted data, may be this is a problem. I'm disable this long time ago and don't use it. You can try to disable this too. After installing firmware FORMAT your data via twrp, but it delete ALL files from your internal storage.
Sent from my Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact (AOSP) using XDA Labs

A great big thanks to you for this! Especially when it comes to getting Gcam HDR+ going on this. Once fingerprint is working I can definitely see using this as a daily driver...
One question, when you use Gcam HDR+ on this, does it still display the early stock image distortion from the camera? Not that wide-angle fisheye effect, but the actual wavey lines and such? I imagine sony's fix was proprietary algorithms in the stock sony camera app...
Not sure if this is still relevant, but this post on an AOSP (for XZ) thread mentions that the fingerprint issue (exactly same, works until reboot) is due to magisk v15, where a beta version makes it work properly. Maybe try different magisk versions?

No, fingerprint had issue by itself not by magisk. Yes gcam had some distorsing on images.

[APPS][CM12.1] Cyanogen Camera Next [FLASHABLE]

Hello, just wanted to share this package, it contains CameraNext with all the features working (i added libraries too, so everything should work except features with hardware limitations).
You can find all the camera informations/features here:
http://www.androidcentral.com/looking-camera-features-cyanogen-os
I made a package that contains a backup script, so it won't be deleted when you update your CyanogenMod ROM, i didn't test it on other ROMs because i only use CM12.1, so if you want to try it on a different AOSP ROM i can't give you any support.
This package won't replace your stock Camera app/libraries, that will still work as usual.
DOWNLOAD:
CameraNext
I can't revert nor add any change because the app is prebuilt and closed-source
Tested and working on:
- CM12.1
- SlimLP(5.1.1)
- ...
CHANGELOG:
11/10/2015
- Removed GalleryNext (you can find it in the C-Apps package https://cyngn.com/c-apps)
- Updated CameraNext to 2.0.005 from latest YU Yureka plus factory image
-- Removed HFR entry (slow motion)
-- Removed focus mode entry (automatic or continuous), it's now continuous by default
- Moved the package from /priv-app to /app
- Moved libraries from /lib to /CameraNext/lib/arm
I had to keep 2.0.004 libraries (from OPO) because YU Yureka plus uses 64 bit libraries and they're not working on 32 bit systems
HOW TO REMOVE THE CYANOGEN CAMERA?
The easiest way is explained here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64641032&postcount=28
slow motion doesn't work mention that in OP
edit: HFR (slow motion) entry removed with 2.0.005 update
I've installed this camera app and... woow... it is really what i was looking for!!!! Thank you guy!!! Now I have everything: panorama working (feature missing in standard CM 12 camera app, in google camera and non working in many other apps I tried!), HDR, continous shots (even this missing in standard cm camera), good camera quality (better than stock motorola app!)... and maybe, in future, we'll have slowmo working!!!! WOOOOOW

Yeah I figured it out. It seems like the Cyanogenmod Recovery didnt like it. switched to TWRP and it flashed fine.

[APP] Camera HAL Switcher

Hey guys!
I'm learning Android app development and decided to put the skills I learnt to some use, so here it is-
This app is for people like me who prefer the higher exposure time of the Stock HAL in low light (brighter and less noisy photos), but at the same time want to use all the features of Sultan's HAL like 4K video, etc.
It can also be used if you want to compare the two HALs or decide to revert to Stock in the future (no need to dirty flash your ROM now!).
Features:
Switch between Stock and Sultan's HAL on the fly (no reboot required!)
Backup and restore Stock HAL files (no need of a revert zip now)
Launch your default Camera from within the app
Should work on all ROMs 5.1.1 and above (EDIT: It doesn't seem to be working on OOS. Will try to fix it in the near future).
Will even work when Sultan updates his HAL
WARNING: This app is designed to run only on a rooted OPX running Android 5.1.1 and above. It might break your camera if used on any other phone!
Installation Instructions:
Install the APK file
Dirty flash your current ROM (only if you have already flashed Sultan's HAL)
Press the Backup button in the app (Status should say "Not Installed" at this time)
Flash Sultan's HAL zip from recovery
Usage:
If you're performing a clean ROM install in the future, be sure to hit the backup button within the app before flashing Sultan's HAL.
If Sultan releases an update to his HAL, be sure to switch to his HAL from within the app before flashing the updated zip.
If for whatever reason you encounter any issues, dirty flash your ROM and follow the Installation instructions again. This should fix them.
Credits:
@Sultanxda for his awesome HAL!
Note: Neither Stock HAL files nor Sultan's HAL files are included in this app
Any bug fixes, feature requests and reviews are always welcome (I'll be working on it only when I have free time).
Finally, it goes without saying- I'm not responsible for any damage whatsoever caused to your device by using this app!

Really great work @ashwinpilgaonkar This will come in handy to a vast majority of people !
Great application and idea, good job, but for some reason when switching to stock HAL my camera apps stop working. I was following your instructions and flashed HAL after installing the app and backuping the old HAL. Any suggestions?

No, this wont work if you're using Sultan's ROM as it comes with the custom HAL pre installed. You would have to manually copy the Stock HAL files from CM13 for it to work.

Does this only happen when switching to Stock HAL? It works fine for me.

Try dirty flashing it and following the instructions once again.

It only works with Sultan HAL and when switching to stock HAL, camera stops working. I am on CM13 Official latest nightly with bluspark kernel, xposed and supersu 2.65. First time I've tried it I had OOS 3.0.1 camera installed from the other thread. Then I dirty flashed without installing that camera and tried your app with the stock google camera from opengapps, still no luck. I really, really want this working on my phone

This is great in theory and i've waited for something like this to hopefully be made in which I am very greatful for. However, I'm on rooted OOS 2.2.0 with Blue spark and the same issue occurs for me - It says action performed successfully when applying the Stock HAL, but when launching the camera app it says "Unknwon error".
I have tried clearing cache and data for the stock camera app, but no luck.

Same problem as him - "Unknown Error" in OOS camera and "Can't connect to the camera" in google camera. Tried cleaning cache aswell, even tried with cleaning davlik/cache after installing sultan HAL.
For some reason my screen recorder cuts the videos before I can't record everything, so I can't provide a video. I can extract logs or something if you need them?

Yeah my recorder stops too. Here's error though after applying https://youtu.be/ivviaicSa4I
Maybe a direct option to clear "camera App" data (not onlycache) could help.
I'm trying the MOD right now.
Edit : same problem for me.
I had to wipe camera app data, , launch it from drawer and then it worked.
Without that, camera app couldn't be launched from Hal Switcher.

I just tried this, still doesn't work for me unfortunately.
It doesn't matter what app it is so therefore I presume it's not just the stock camera app it's to do with something technical that can hopefully be fixed with a bit of tweaking.

I installed the ROM on my Indian version of x play 1562 ds. But my phone didn't boot. It did not proceed beyond the android screen. So I had to revert back to my backup. I am on the same version of stock firmware.
I will install this rom, Thanks!
It is Asia dual sim version. Please check link again, it is working for me. Thx.

Do you wipe before flash? When it boots, boots two times, one for splash and one more for the rom. First rom boots takes some time.
Thanks a lot, that's what I'm looking for.
Just flashed it a few hours back, and it works like a charm on my Middle Eastern XT1562 dual sim.
Performance is smoother than stock, no doubt. Gonna use it and see how it goes with the battery backup.
A little issue happens here (no big deal to me) is Moto Display. It is ON by default and I couldn't find any options in app drawer as an app, nor in device settings. I looked into files and I found it in priv-app, copied it to storage and reinstall it, then I got it FC twice, I rebooted then again I got it FC twice.
Booted into recovery and deleted the Moto Display folder, reboot into system then got FC twice, eventually its not working anymore (that's what I want), so the Moto Display and FC are no biggies.
Good job bud, I'll feedback soon.

Yes,I wipe as mentioned in the op.But at the end of wiping process a red error message is displayed 'unable to mount storage'.Is it the issue or is it normal?
Also,how much time it should take for the initial booting?
Edit: Problem solved.I wiped the phone from recovery and then it booted ok.But it seems the rom is not rooted.So I had to flash supersu 2.62 version.Now I shall try it for a couple of days and shall report here.Thanks for the rom.
Edit 1:Scrolling is not smooth as it should be.It is a bit laggy.Also led not working.How to enable it?

OK.Thanks.The led works for notifications only,not for charging.Can it be enabled?After some time the rom is running smoothly. I think it took time to optimize.
This version of Indian firmware has inbuilt VoLTE.By dialing *#*#4636#*#* we can enter to settings menu.There is an entry named TURN OFF VOLTE PROVISION FLAG.Since VoLTE is mentioned,I think it is present.
thanks for building this rom. fast and smooth.
i wanted to get supersu updated to 2.76, but after flash it in TWRP, the older version supersu disappeared and new version not installed,
any idea, please.

These roms are stock, have the most common apps optimized by Sony kept in /system, all common functions are enabled.
What's noticeable is that I get 8 hr sot on Oreo with stamina performance mode, haven't tested yet, but Nougat is much lighter, it seems.
version 2 will have google apps completely removed and replaced with ''nanomod gapps'' https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/module-nanomod-5-0-20170405-microg-t3584928, it will be depend on a xposed module.

then you just have to delete hosts in system/etc/hosts (or .old) it is part of adblocking

yes please. I would love the G8142 based on .75.
And, we all would love to know what exactly you have removed from the fw, except for the Facebook app, and what you have added (if any).
To be 100% aware of the contents of the modification.

Hi.
Thanks for your work~
Nouga Version..
Setup wizard...problem.
no keyboard..
and gogle play service error..
I don't enter main ui..
I need your help..
Dear. Could you please make it into a separate patch? So that one would not have to download the whole 1.9gb of your ROM, but only the necessary changes.
I highly appreciate and value your efforts.

I have recovered only the data partitions from an existing backup.Then it became possible to enter the main ui.
However, a message stating that it is still starting.
xperia home,I installed it and it worked.
I installed Evernote app in that state and it does not work.
I installed Google keeps, but it was the same.
So, I installed the unlimited rom patch in xda and it worked.
I got full deodex rom.
I will try the Nano Droid.
Edit. I tried nanodroid. But I cant..
Sadly I have no ability..
GOOD NEWS EVERYONE I succeeded in making xposed work for g8141 g8142 on .179 firmware. I analyzed Chinese frameworks and such. Here is proof.
this mod will be released in 2 days. It is a new rom, basically, just flash it over any .179 firmware and no I cannot release it as patch, because the whole rom is build around the framework.
Just curious if fingerprint is working on this rom??
How can I remove adblocker??
I finally installed your nouga .137 rom
I like it. very very light!!!
I selected country japan or china
keyboard working..
your rom file
+ android webview file
+ xperia home file
I don't have play service error.
I entered main ui.
and
evernote good working..!!
thanks^^
do you have nouga v2 plan??

Thank you for the links, thread is now updated.
Quick question, with MCK, should I wipe everything before/after flashing and will it work with PE+ GSI?

You shouldn’t wipe anything when flashing the kernel. If the stock kernel works fine, I don’t see why mine shouldn’t
Everything is working perfectly, thanks for the guide. I installed the PixelExperience GSI but for some reason Fingerprint sensor is not working. The process is stuck on "Touch the sensor" and the sensor is not lighting up. Yes, I set the color of fingerprint sensor to White (and even tried all other colors).
I even have the following options checked
- Enable Extra Sensor
- Enable workaround for broken fingerprint sensor
- Enable workaround for white-ish screen
Any help will be appreciated, thanks.

I don't know what could be the issue, maybe try to google or try disabling and enabling the fingerprint lock again.
I have tried few GSI Roms. Here is my summary:
Android 13
- AOSP, Android 13, No image with GAPPs pre-installed and cannot seem to install it. Tried NikGAPPs, and LiteGAPPs, both didn't work
- Google GSI, Android 13, same issue
- Pixel Experience, Android 13, GAPPs pre-installed but Fingerprint sensor won't get detected.
Android 12
- AOSP, Android 12, GAPPs pre-installed, Fingerprint sensor detected (changing color to white). Will stick to it unless there is an issue detected.

Nope, I tried to find a good custom rom for A52s but couldn't find any.
What about volte and hotspot on GSI pixel experience 13?

Is there any experience with MicroG on this device with AOSP 13?

Thanks for your summary,
I'm on AOSP 13 now, but perhabs it's better to go back to 12. I'm very interested in the AOSP with the GAPPs pre-installed. Could you share a link to the file?

I got the image from AOSP under the official Android 12/12L section. You can find release here. The exact image I got is the system-squeak-arm64-ab-vndklite-gapps-secure.img.xz one since the standard gapps one came with an app called "superuser" which I couldn't seem to uninstall (I tried the scripts to remove supersu). This caused my banking apps to not run. That is why I installed the "secure" one and then installed Magisk and added my banking apps to the defylist.

I think VoLTE was available as an option in one of the ROM I tested but I don't remember exactly. Currently AOSP 12 doesn't support it. Hotspot worked on every ROM just fine.

Hi Mian,
Thanks for your response. When I typed my question I realized that in the end I want to have and de-googled phone. So I changed my question in the direction of MicroG. I didn't expect you to be so quick with answering.

I haven't tried MicroG in any of the ROM. I just to have as little Google apps as possible but if you do find a good guide, let me know, I will try to use a de-googled phone.
Thx, all worked.

I've installed MicroG. But it seems AOSP doen't allaw support system spoofs signature. Play services (GmsCore) is installed but without the spoofed signature it can't do much I guess...
I have been using AOSP Android 12 for the past week or so. Most of the things just plain works but somethings don't. Here is the list of things that are not working so you can decide if the hassle of installing GSI is worth it or not.
- Proximity Sensor is worse than it was in OneUI. Yes, it is a virtual sensor but on OneUI, it worked better. Now, it is worse. More often than not, it turns on the screen during the call. It would have been better if it simply didn't work.
- The viewport of default camera App in the AOSP displays picture in 4:3 but the camera hardware is giving out 16:9, so the viewport was squeezed. After installing GCam everything is good.
- Fingerprint Sensor simply doesn't work in-app like those in banking apps. It works on the lock screen but nowhere else.
- USB Audio Devices don't work. I have a USB-C to A OTG where I used to insert my headphones. On OneUI they used to work but here they don't. Storage devices work.
- 120 Hz felt smoother on OneUI.
Hello everyone
I managed to install LineageOS with working GApps and camera using this guide, so a big thanks to everyone who worked on flashing this phone
If anyone wants to install it, you need to:
Chose a bgN package (I installed this one : https://sourceforge.net/projects/an...UNOFFICIAL-arm64_bgN-vndklite.img.xz/download). It includes the GApps. You won't be able to install GApps after installing a vanilla (bvS / bvN) package. For some reasons, the /system partition is too small.
For unlocking camera and install magisk, just flash this kernel : https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/kernel-12-13-a528b-n-mesas-custom-kernel-r4.4490653/
I also installed magiskhide prop conf module, but I'm not sure it changed anything and the camera fix was probably already in the MCK. You can find it here anyway : https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...safetynet-prop-edits-and-more-v6-1-2.3789228/
