Root CM12.1 UNOFFICIAL RC5

OK. So I gave the newest build of his ROM a run last night. When my battery hit 4% the phones display went blank and the notification led started alternating between red/green. I did a force hardware shutdown. Afterwards. While powered down. The bootliader reported that it had the incorrect type of battery installed. Please be careful if you run this. I was able to recover from it because I am used to this type of shit. I just don't wanna see people reporting battery incompatibility based bricks. So for the love of god. If you run the cm alpha/beta builds. Leave TWRP installed. Just as a safety precaution in case this happens to you as well.
 
Does the RIL issues include problems with phone calls? I can receive calls, but I can't hear anyone through the earpiece on the phone or through speakerphone.
When I flashed I could hear in call and outgoing audio and speakerphone, kinda strange.
 
Not sure if anyone reported this but, when my screen is off and I hit the power button to turn screen on it takes a good 3 seconds for the screen to power on.
 
I've also had an odd problem with data signals where after a little while my cellular signal drops out and cant reconnect no matter what i do even rebooting
 
I'm getting this phone in a couple of days, when T-Mobile ships it. I would love to flash this ROM but the audio bugs is really throwing me off. I love the hard work and dedication here. Just a suggestion you might want to PM a dev on here called Phenomx4, he's practically a ROM genius. He built CM12 and CM12.1 for the ZTE Awe, a very low end ZTE device. I'm pretty sure he could help with the audio issues on the ZMax

I am sure that he could too

Do you think that I can fix it ?

listen anyone who wants to join in an help is welcome to, and it would be nice to have Phenomx4 on board, I know him and he knows me, he used my ZTE msm8x30 tree to get started with his AWE tree, I ask him for help sometimes, he asks me for help sometimes, he is a very good dev

I do not think he will work on the phone a lot unless he has one in hand to test with.

So if you want to start a donation thread for him to get him a Zmax, go ahead

I am sorry that I am working too slow for you, maybe I should have not taken on this project.

You are definitely not working to slow on this project. In fact you've made huge leaps and bounds in what feels like no time. You're doing great work hroark! We really appreciate it.

EDIT: I need to spell better lol

maybe we should bring santa clause on board. i hear he has a huge sack of mystical gadgets made by his slaves. he would probably loan us a few coding elves for the week.

i'm glad its you working on this. i know itll be done right. in fact, i'm gonna buy you a beer right now. thanks again.
 
what this zip does is copies the
vendor/lib/libacdbloader.so
vendor/lib/libacdbmapper.so

that I took out of alpha 1, that killed phone audio unbeknownst to me, so those two files will get phone audio working

it also copies and should overwrite
etc/acdbdata/MTP/MTP_Bluetooth_cal.acdb
etc/acdbdata/MTP/MTP_General_cal.acdb
etc/acdbdata/MTP/MTP_Global_cal.acdb
etc/acdbdata/MTP/MTP_Handset_cal.acdb
etc/acdbdata/MTP/MTP_Hdmi_cal.acdb
etc/acdbdata/MTP/MTP_Headset_cal.acdb
etc/acdbdata/MTP/MTP_Speaker_cal.acdb
etc/acdbdata/QRD/QRD_Bluetooth_cal.acdb
etc/acdbdata/QRD/QRD_General_cal.acdb
etc/acdbdata/QRD/QRD_Global_cal.acdb
etc/acdbdata/QRD/QRD_Handset_cal.acdb
etc/acdbdata/QRD/QRD_Hdmi_cal.acdb
etc/acdbdata/QRD/QRD_Headset_cal.acdb
etc/acdbdata/QRD/QRD_Speaker_cal.acdb

these .acdb files come from the ZTE V5 Red Bull (X9180)

with these files, media audio works, phone audio works

not too sure about other audio, so we need some testing

this could be flashed over alpha 1, or any of the previous builds

I honestly would like it if other devs jumped in and helped out, it just that his post made me feel like maybe I was not working fast enough or I did not know what I was doing or something

I think I am being too sensitive or something
