A5_UL Eu single sim (and any compatible variants) Working ROM thread - Desire 816 General

Hi all.
I'm using CM12.1 5.1.1 from 20150429. Grarak unofficial ROM.
Any Cm12.1 based ROM newer than this has bugs making my phone unusable.
-long time detecting sim card, and long time getting a cellular connection once sim detected
-SMS not sending or receiving
-no calls incoming
Which basically make it a mini tablet ...
So far I've tried a pacman 5.0.3 ROM but found it sluggish.
Does anyone with this same model of phone have a workaround or a suggestion of a stable working 5.1 ROM?
Has anyone tried updating RUU with either success or failures to report?
I'm at a loss here and its a shame, this phone is good value for money and was working well up to this last cm12.1 build.
I really don't want to go back to 5.0, and I'm not sure any sense/stock ROM is better? Can you share positive experience on this matter?
Thanks to all devs who give their time to allow us to use and own our phones. I am grateful and in no way taking any of this for granted.
Without you we'd all have locked phones and no freedom.
And peace to all, above and beyond ALL the rest!

Stock with xposed & some mods like Nitro X spark works fine for me, as there is no good ROM for our phone .. the bugs makes the phone unusable with custom roms :/

And you don't have issues with disk space etc? Stock 5.0, 5.1 or 4.4 ?

[Q] Where to find AOSP/CM ROM for Xiaomi Note 4G dualSIM (aka GUCCI)?

Hi,
any Idea where to find AOSP/CM ROM for Xiaomi Note 4G dualSIM (aka GUCCI)? Many ROMs here are specifically saying they are for singleSIM (aka DIOR). And others dont specify at all. I tried asking in a few threads (in about three) and Im still awaiting response, but I still want to ask here .
Any ideas, please? I would like larger phone, larger battery and dualsim but I dislike MIUI ... Thanks for any response!
PS: I found this AOSP ROM which I would like to use but first I need to know if it is for dualSIM or not:

i need to for this rom. thx
Search for gucci
Hi,
i thing its not for this device. You need to search for (phone code name) gucci, not dior! I am looking for this right now. There is cwm, but in Chinese. I found englisth cwm, but i need to test it. CM12 rom is here from this forum.
The mobile data on that CM12 rom doesn't work.
I only have one SIM but I tested on both slots and was not able to get data to work at all.
The only CM rom that I have had any mileage with is the CM11 rom by Ghostly Doctor
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24499762636001100
There's a bit of crapware in the rom but you can open the zip and delete the apk's before flashing.
The only other issue that I have encountered after ~2 weeks of use is that the mobile data periodically disconnects and reconnects, this would normally be a deal breaker but I just cannot hack imitation iOS on the official roms to go back.

What ROM to get? (cant find a one without problems) I9505

Hi
I have international S4 (i9505) and I have tried various roms and every time I end up with some kind of problem, I used one on 4.4.2 and it had connectivity issues, then I tried 1 on 5.0.1 and it started rebooting every few hours, then installed one named optimized cyanogen 12.1 and it says bluetooth crashed over and over.
So the question is can anyone recommend a rome without any of those problems? and dont do anything special on my phone, mostly whatsapp, some online games and music nothing more, but want bluetooth and everything to work.
Ay help?
Thanks
If you don't want to deal with problems, go back to stock and root that.
Even stock has problems.
You should understand that each phone is different, even if it's the same model. Meaning that even if somebody suggest a rom that works perfectly for that person, it might not work for you.
With this in mind I can suggest to you the rom I've been running for a few months and works great for me: Resurrection Remix with alucard kernel.
And if you don't want whatsapp audio issues, go into developer options and enable AwesomePlayer.
one question, what does the kernel affect in the ROMs stability?
right now I´m on Cianogen and it hasnt shown problem, for now at least

Hi @totopesce,
I'm currently using the latest version of a ROM called Dirty Unicorns. I've had little to no issues with it. It's AOSP based, it's nice and light and very customizable.
It's trail and error with custom ROMS really. I was hoping from ROM to ROM for a long time before I eventually settled on Dirty Unicorns. It's your own taste at the end of the day.
Good luck with the search!

dual sim bug and bluetooth

Hello,
I have a couple of problems with my Samsung Galaxy S III Duos (I9300). CM 12, CM 12.1.
1. I cannot switch to use Internet from another sim card. It always uses just one of them. I tried swapping cards, It just chooses one of them, not always sim in slot 1.
2. Problem with Bluetooth in car (BMW, CCC). When I call (incoming/outgoing call) from one sim card everything is fine. When I call from another sim, car answers the phone and shows duration of a call, but no sound.
U are using latest build?

I noticed these bugs when I was on CM12 or CM11 (not sure which one, November 2015 release, Android 5.0.1 if I'm not mistaken), flashed back to stock 4.4.4, both bugs disappeared, so I guess it was not a hardware problem. Then I tried CM 12.1 20151225 release, both bugs were still in the ROM, so I flashed 4.4.4 again.
Can anyone confirm if they have the same bugs or if they are known at all.
Thanks.
Flash latest cm12.1 not cm12
Android 5.1.1 not 5.0.2

As I already wrote I did flash CM12.1 dated 25.12.2015 from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3-neo/orig-development/rom-cyanogenmod-12-1-s3-neo-t3099384
It didn't work either. Is it possible that I chose the wrong GApps and this was the reason?
I think I used open gapps stock version, but not sure, don't have that SD card and can't check now.
i have used CM12 and 12.1 rox and RR and i don't recall these two problems that you have mentioned specially the internet problem to me it was perfect but with a little reboot here and there so soory i couldn't help.
P.S :soory for my bad english

Xiaomi Redmi 2 2014811 Best Rom?

I am currently on MIUI 7, the one just before it updates to MIUI 8. What I want to know is, what is the best possible custom rom I can flash to that will work with this device? I have Team Win Recovery 3.0.0.0 installed.
I have installed Redmi 2 2014811 for my casual user (no root or else) with this base rom : miui_HM2XWCProGlobal_V8.0.7.0.LHJMIDG_3240991baf_5.1.zip via CWM

Cool thanks, I will look up the rom. I thought about Android 6 or 7, but see those still have some major issues here and there.

Major issues?which ROM r u talking about?there are so many ROMs those are pretty stable.Only minor bugs(miui also have this)
BTW devs work very hard for these ROMs and they got nothing but our thanks and encouragement. These custom ROMs are way better in performance and customization than sluggish and heavy MIUI rom.
My phone is 8months old and this phone is still with me because of efforts of devs.
So don't be so demanding about 200% no bug and be thankful to them.

Don't get me wrong, I am very grateful. I worked on Windows Mobile roms back in the day so know what type of work goes into it. I have only started to look at custom roms today and am so completely lost, guess I chose the wrong word being major. When i said major I had camera and Gps in mind, as I saw some of those roms had issues with those. So again, no disrespect meant from my side and I apologize if It came out that way. I was just kind of hoping someone could bump me in the right direction. The last time this phone was flashed the previous owner flashed it in such a way that the sim card could not be detected, after fixing that I flashed a MIUI rom, but that was sort of the Chinese version and stuff like google services did not work properly and push notifications would not work unless you turn the phone on and go into the app. So yeah if you can point me in the right direction I will appreciate it a lot.

Video recording was a issue for Nougat based ROM but it has been fixed.And about gps, it is working fine (i like to use waze)with Marshmallow based ROM.I don't know about nougat as I didn't fully moved to nougat.I have downloaded Tesla (N) and sodamod(cm 14) today .So I will report you soon about GPS in Nougat.
Till now I have tried cm(M),RR(M),DU(M),Tesla(M),orion(M),zephyre(M),AICP(M),AOKP(M).Most of them has kept my expectation.Now I am on project-x(M).It is also suberb with almost no problem.
If you want to stick with miui based then there is also"thunder-miui" by @gkalen.
Try these ROMs and see which is suitable for you.I like to stick with cm based for C.M.T.E.
Edit:-GPS works fine in nougat.
Lollipop (5.x) - CM 12.1
Marshmallow (6.x) - MoKee
Nougat (7.x) - I only tested Suda not good for daily driver

Is Mirror link working in any custom ROM?

Hi, anyone knows if there is any rom with Mirror link working?
Mirror link is not screen Mirror to the TV. It is the connection to the car MP5 with the USB and you can manage your phone with the car touch screen.
If It doesn't work now but anyone knows if nearly It will be implemented in any rom please say me in which one.
Thanks and regards.
I'm looking into this as well, I've been wanting to install a custom rom such as @Ivan_Meler LOS Rom, but it has pushed my phone to a "Phone is not compatible" reading on the headunit.
Little back story:
I have a Samsung Gal. S7 and a Honda Civic 2015 and I've been able to do Mirrorlink when it was working on a completely stock rom. Only problem was I was trying to mirrorlink the full phone screen and not have to use the Samsung Car mode, Rockscout, etc. I've tried every trick in the book even one which required the phone to be rooted. (AAUnlock and AAMirror) I used SuperSU, whick I should now look into trying Magisk, and see if that makes any difference.
What I've noticed is that once the phone is rooted, even on a stock rom, the Head Unit in my car switches to "Phone is not compatible". Again, I rooted it with SuperSU. I've been able to locate a S7 Stock Rom which I'll go back to and see if I can get that working again. Once that's established, I'll try with Magisk, and see if there's any difference.
So far with every rom I've tried including LOS (most Roms are based from LOS), the phone hasnt worked in mirrorlink. I'm hoping that @Ivan_Meler makes an update that allows it, as it seems his is the only ROM that gets updated on a frequent basis. I'm hoping that this (along with other issues) gets resolved on the Rom and this can become my daily driver.
Hello
Did you manage to make work your S7 mirrorlink with a rooted rom ?
Thanks

If you want to use these old roms, make sure you change the thermals. I highly recommend Jabashque 6, the links are on my thermals thread.
As good as that version of Omni is, Darkobas himself said that longterm use will kill dramatically hurt longterm battery life.
You could use the compatible Blackscreen with the Jabashque thermals and your experience will be perfect.
BY the way, Oreo and Pie Roms are awesome. If you try Pie tryout Lineage 16 its awesome!
Thanks
i want at least oreo, i tried Omni but Mirrorscreen does not work
