Root Let's Get CM Onto Avant!

Blu8 said:
More like WiFi calling isn't even a feature of CM because it's very carrier specific and tmobile isn't even forking over what devs need to make mms work on third party sms apps. Nothing to do at all with the fact that this is a work in progress.

Are you saying that the stock original SMS app for this phone is the only one that will work for MMS? If I download a SMS app from Google play it won't work for MMS?

No that's not what I meant, I wasn't very clear sorry. What I meant to say is that if you are connected to WiFi and also have WiFi calling turned on, unless you're using the stock sms app you can't send mms.

Very true. This is the reason I stopped using hangouts for messaging.

Oh lol. You piqued my curiosity cause I had found an aosp MMS.apk that works on the avant or I thought it did until I tried sending a picture message. But I don't ever use WiFi calling cause the only time I ever have WiFi is if I'm at a fast food joint.
 
GUYs guess what I found out how to make porb work I was trying to watch porn on the latest cm build for the avant and it kept crashing so I downloaded MX player and I use the stream search I put the porn link and switched the decoder to S/W and BOOM it worked.PS.... It works for most videos not just porn

Edit: Although most women are content with glittery icon packs and moustache wallpapers there are still a few on the forums. Good times lol

:D
 
Moving on from that situation.....(lol)
I know this is really off topic and I should probably start another thread, but I just had a quick question. I've seen on a couple of sites that the Avant is supposedly scheduled to get a software update to Lollipop in Q2 this year, any thoughts?
 
Getting ready to switch back to CM. Are there any tweaks or recommendations for apps, etc... To make it any better or faster. Amazing work so far, can't wait to get back off stock. Needed the camera for pictures

Cell phone manufacturers have a bad habit of promising big updates for budget phones and then going back on their word around the same time that they discontinue them.

I'll believe it when I get the update prompt

If your phone is rooted, you won't get the update prompt.

Yeah you're probably right, I wouldn't mind giving Lollipop TW a try though. Just as a side note, LG gave the L90 Lollipop today. If Samsung were to update a midrange phone like LG I would think it would be the Avant. But that probably won't happen lol

What cm version are you using? Last I checked cameras and video was broken.

They are, I'm pretty sure he's saying he had to go back to stock because he needed the camera to work, and now he's coming back to CM. Which by the way is so much smoother than stock
 
Well some video works and camcorder works plus front camera works for pics so it's not to bad because as you said there is a performance boot switching alone

It's definitely not bad lol the current build is really stable and those bugs I can live with for the time being. In fact I'm on CM right now, jus can't stay away lol
 
Oh because I had massive problems with it, it was very buggy, was just curious if there was a different build that I didn't know about or something

Massive as in it was unusable?? That's odd because really the only big bugs there are are H/W decoding and the camera....and the proximity sensor doesn't work but that's it.
 
Anyone ever figure out why the battery is crap with this new CM ROM? I talked about it a while ago but I really want to know why the battery is so crap. I've been using it for a few months now, and my battery doesn't last half as long as when on the stock ROM. I guess fast and smooth comes at a price
 
Really, people are really using it as a daily driver? Maybe its just me but I want all the features of a phone that I pay for to work, I had problems with apps crashing, random reboots, no rear camera, and no video, tried it out for around 1 day and got so frustrated that I went back to stock.
