Root Let's Get CM Onto Avant!

Guys, I would love to help but here's my situation and try to remember that I'm 16 so there's little to nothing I can do to fix any of this (eg no hotel or renting desktop or anything to do with cash) - Riff raff at my house has lead me to remove myself from the situation and go elsewhere for a while. I might have able to have my heavy metal (desktop) to do any heavy lifting, but the same day my temp files decided to spam my computer with tons of useless zeroed files and make everything go to shit (can't boot up without fixing from livecd) and of course I'm not there to fix. Hope you can understand my predicament y'all

Oh hey, I didn't expect you to. :) I just know that things tend to work out when you explain everything going on. I'm trying not to step on toes and I hope I didn't offend. I'll see what I can do when I'm able to get my head back in the game.

Just got around to replying, take your time man. Hell take your well deserved break, you actually found time to make a ROM with 2 full time jobs already (one being a parent) lol. Its a side project if anything, family and work are real life priorities, they come first. I think we all understand that! :D


EDIT: I do have a question for you if your willing to answer before your relaxing break (If you take one lol) is there maybe some file we could copy over from the older builds that would fix the headphone jack audio? I use it for talking on the phone while driving and it would be greatly appreciated if you could help me fix this problem! :D Also, do you have a donate button somewhere? Maybe we could donate a few bucks for you to keep up the good work :)

Try this:
Backup the boot partition from the latest build through twrp, flash the build from page 22, and then just restore the boot partition again.

EDIT: Small donation sent your way bud, keep up the good work!
EDIT: Also if anyone wants the PA Mini modular gapps package for 4.4.4 I have it downloaded, I could upload it to dropbox if anyone wants to download it since the dev took them all down.

Please do, what are the differences in the mini and micro gapps? Which are best? Great work on getting the headphone jack fixed, will flash after I decide the gapps lol

I would say after the next update (if its the one that fixes video playback) I would call this ROM a daily driver completely in beta! Moving up from the alpha stage of course, then after the video is fixed all is left is camera then maybe the other dev can port his 5.0 ROM onto here!!

Yeah its practically a beta at this point he has done a good job with this rom. I believe the only issues stopping it from being stable are proximity, video, and camera. A lollipop rom would be amazing especially with battery life this phone only has a 2100 mah battery which is adequate but nothing special. I found some battery replacements on amazon that are 2300 and even 2400 mah respectively. I'm tempted to buy one but I dont know if its good quality or not.

Edit: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00QT57JVI/ref=pd_aw_sims_8?pi=AC_SX230_QL60

It appears to have some good reviews as well so im tempted lol

I found one battery that was 4800 mah if I remember right. Of course that was priced just about even with the phone though lol
 
I updated git last night one small thing to compile it theres one small change that needs to be done in device/samsung/qcom-common/Android.mk and that is add msm8226 in this line
ifeq ($(call is-board-platform-in-list,msm8974 msm8960 msm8660),true)

So that looks like

ifeq ($(call is-board-platform-in-list,msm8226 msm8974 msm8960 msm8660),true)
