Bootloader/Root status - Potential Developer

Question for you guys.
Dev here (from such rootings as the Galaxy Tab 2, and fixing gps on the Wifi Sony Tablet Z).
Considering getting one of these (on sale at new egg for 279 this weekend)
What is the status of the Bootloader? Is is locked? Is LG allowing unlock?
How about root?

we have officially loki'd it but that is about it. We don't have a dev to do the rest. DJRBLISS added it to the list. PLEASE BUY!!!
EDIT* Which if you are not aware allows you to flash recoveries, roms and anything your heart desires. It bypasses the locked bootloader and gives your the same result of a unlocked bootloader.(so far all LG devices are loki compatible, been flashing for months on my G2 with that method) Just need to make a recovery compatible for our device. TWRP has a guide but we don't have a dev to do the work.
P.S. i just bought mine from new egg!

We've got root, but some people are paranoid about the method. A few of us have been working on getting a recovery working but we're new at it. I feel like I'm getting close.

I think I'm going to, the thing we need is a kernel source, which under the GPL we can ask for (they can ignore it lol)
2 of us at CMB (I know is a new never heard much of team rom, my rom) will have them, so if we can create (we being everyone here) a solid device tree we will be good to go.
I have a N5 and had an N4, I think the G2/N5/N5 trees will be the place to start creating one.

Yeah we've got the source for both the kernel and ROM. I built the kernel source but am having problems building the ROM.

if you are willing to share what you have so far for a device tree, I'll see if I can make suggestions, and get started on it. I always give credit , and enjoy working with other devs

Interested in porting CM 13

Hello fellow XDA members, I recently purchased a Le Pro 3 and a Le S3 during the flash sale and would like to use Cyanogenmod on my devices. I was wondering if anyone on this forum has ever ported a ROM before as I have not, and only know about the CM porting guide and opensource.le.com for the kernel source. If anyone has any tips or would like to assist me in porting CM13 to the Pro 3 please reply to this thread or PM me. Thanks, and let's hope LeEco releases the source soon!

Love to help but this isn't my department ????. But we should probably see more support in a couple more days once they start arriving here

Just out of curiousity, what exactly had you hoped to achieve with this post? If you're interested in porting, ideally you should at least be able to build a rom (for another pre-existing device)... and then you'll have to hunt down help on the CM forums and then eventually IRC.
Talking about this on XDA is pointless.

The purpose of my post was to see if anyone in the XDA community had experience porting a ROM to a new device, and if they'd be interested in helping me. I have read through a few guides and understanding building a ROM, but am struggling to find what I must "merge." From what I've found so far, I'll need to edit/merge the directories in /system/libs and edit the kernel?

No, it's far more complicated than that. You'll need a copy of the kernel for sure, but you'll also need a device definition. You can use the op3's device as a template, it's probably the best example of an msm8996 device you can have.
You really should be checking into the CM forums. CM people are pretty uppity about not supporting things on XDA. They also don't tend to help. Even as a developer I find it difficult sometimes to get their attention. Your best bet is to go to them if you want their help. Good luck.

Yeah, I understand. I also found out that it will be about a month until LeEco officially releases all of the source.

Where did you get that information from? They "accidentally" released kernel sources not too long ago and seemingly withdrew it. I got a copy of them and that's what I've been working with. I don't have a device to verify if any of it works.

I asked on this forum. Also my S3 is coming tonight, and my Pro tomorrow. I have a copy of the Pro 3 kernel source as well but as of now don't know what to do. What have you worked on so far?

Not a lot. I've identified the CAF tag the sources are based on and have been working to separate the relevant LeEco mods from the less relevant ones. I've also been attempting to remove the leeco specific things from the drivers that i'm keeping since they're a horrible mess and CM won't be able to make use of them anyway. I've also been finding the appropriate open versions of the drivers and taking the latest ones instead.
The mods from LeEco seem to be a mess, the dmesg output I got from a user on the chinese model (the x720) had segfaults from the modifications just after boot. The logcats are so full of errors I was unable to get the user to send me a full logcat from boot.
Interestingly enough, the chinese system rom looks like it came from a Le Max2. This makes sense since it's LeEco's first msm8996 device, and the Le Pro3 is the second one. I imagine the kernel sources work across a number of the 8996's.

Can you send me the link to where you got the open drivers.

This is not a International version? Its USA version? Where is the International source code?

Here's a mega mirror in case the drive link goes down.

Wish i could help more, but it looks like the kernel source is in there too, perhaps that means a fully functional cm13 rom that works AT LEAST as well as the stock rom. VERY EXCITE!

I'm also waiting for CM13.

[PORT] OOS camera for custom roms

Edit 2: This thread is about @MSF Jarvis 's port of the OOS camera app for custom roms, which can be found here:
https://github.com/MSF-Jarvis/op5cam/commits/master
I'll leave it like this until the ownership of the thread is transferred to him.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Original post:
Hey guys,
Yesterday I asked Funk Wizard when OP will release an OOS camera fully compatible with custom roms.
He replied with a zip as attachment and said I could try it in the meantime, but I don't have a op5 yet.
Apparently, the caught the zip in the wild.
If I'm not allowed to distribute this please delete this thread!
EDIT: removed zip, adding link to developers github

This was made by harsh

Doesn't improve quality and might not work with all custom ROMs.

Can someone try it on official lineage os please?

Lol I understand the love for fame and that beautifully tempting thanks meter but please, don't do this. The ZIP is mine and open source since August 2 at https://github.com/MSF-Jarvis/op5cam/commits/master (thanks for showing up though, reminded me to push the v0.4 changes). Pretty sure Funk Wizard didn't pass off the ZIP as his though. You can keep the thread but add the GitHub link to the OP.
Also, I had been sending the ZIPs to other OnePlus 5 developers to test around which is probably how he came across it. Not exactly wild.

To begin with ... i appreciate your efforts and full credits for this. I have already linked your github to the post i made and obviously i got the zip through one of the developers.

Sorry for posting it, I googled the zip and only Funk wizards thread came up. I would never have posted this if I knew this was already out.
And really, I don't care about fame or thanks. It's just that I am willing to buy this device but not until the camera quality on custom roms is the same as on OOS

It's probably a bad upload.

Tried it on unofficial aospa and the app force closes every time. Probably need to force hal1 or something.

Thanks! Flashed this over my existing setup (running Dirty Unicorns) and couldn't get it to run. The app exits as soon as it is launched, and the only thing that worked for me was the front camera. Attempting to run the back camera in any way (pro-mode, video, photo, etc.) closes the app.
Just an update for anyone who wants to try, of course, nothing else.

Missing Portrait Mode
It seems to work well in the official build of LineageOS, but it seems to be missing portrait mode and therefore the bokeh effect.
Thanks for the great work!

If you have a X722 >>>>>> DO NOT INSTALL THIS ROM!!!!
I hope you don't take this post personally, I am only wanting to warn people about the dangers of using this Rom, and not trying to insult you.
First this Rom is not really newer.
I just compared the files of the two ROMs ( side by side ) and it mostly has the exact same files with the same dates and sizes.
But this one has more bloatware, and a different kernel ( the wrong one) simply compiled at a later date.
Its using the S1 Coolpad kernel and that is dangerous for some users.
I would not trust the link to the Flyme website either:
I used that one for two days and although it had all of the correct radio files from stock EUI, it still had too many FC's and the overheating was so bad I thought the phone was bricked at one point.
I am sure that you don't want people to brick their phones!?
* Why not just install something stable and guaranteed to work.
Reminder based on the Coolpad S1 kernel.
I would strongly Advise that anyone with a X722 to not bother unless you want a guaranteed brick.
The only positive aspect that I can see is that this Rom is It has alot of sounds, that is not a joke.
It has 40 ringtones
40 Alarm sounds
30 Notification sounds
30 misc ui sounds
Seriously, these links need to be taken down.

Research. Google is your friend (when you need to learn something anyway).

Can confirm the rom provided by Jason M. Works perfectly on xt1766 boost variant NCQS26.69-64-10. Thank you so very much.

Sorry everyone I had some family visiting and my 3yr old nephew was caught playing around with my PC. I had some browser windows open with github and Android File Host and he must have deleted my github and roms on afh. I'll fix it asap but I'm gonna have to completely redo the trees.
