Root Let's Get CM Onto Avant!

[jack_hard]

Really whats the issue wit the camera?

 

[Djoec3683]

Rear camera doesn't work, proximity sensor broken, and also there is some sort it wake lock issue causing the lock screen to lag, out of curiosity has anyone attempted to use ART on this ROM?

 

[malnash52]

I have

I also noticed very severe lag whenever I tried to use a theme.

If you flashed it with TWRP, try WITH Odin, or vice-versa.

I Flashed The Rom By First Rooting The Phone Then I Used Avant Exploded App To Install TWRP And Then Moved The Rom And Adreno Drivers And GApps To Internal Storage . And Did A Factory Data Reset Using TWRP Then Flashed The 3 Zips. Is There Something Im Doing Wrong ?

Do an advanced wipe and select system data dalvick cache and cache

 

[malnash52]

Just doing a factory reset when flashing ROMs can sometimes cause bootloops

 

[Djoec3683]

Sometimes when flashing a ROM it can take upwards of ten to 15 minutes to boot, how long did you wait?

I'm using a theme with no issues at all

The longer I wait for this ROM to become stable, the less I feel the urge to try it. After rooting, adding twrp, installing xposed with the wanam module and turning off much of the carrier bloatware, I'm really quite satisfied with stock 4.4.2. For example, check out my minimalist notification screen:

Don't get me wrong. I'm a big fan what everyone has been trying to accomplish here, and I applaud those who have taken the time to get it this far. However, those nagging few remaining bugs seem like tough ones to crack, and I fear we'll see an official lollipop on the Avant long before we ever get a really complete CM port working.

Yeah, I think that could be the reality.

If only the Galaxy S4 mini got the 5.0 update like the full size S4, then I could easily port it's stock 5.0 to our beloved Avant. In fact, most people could.

 

[rck01]

As far as you've heard, Samsung still plans to upgrade the Avant, yes?

RCK

 

[NSLlama]

Yeah but it's my android and I need it now.

 

[malnash52]

So Samsung is going to upgrade the avant

 

[Djoec3683]

They might upgrade the avant, might being they key word.

I've been adding stuff from the stock system files not sure if that'll fix anything but the permissions are hell to follow up with

 

[Adknight87]

Its on the list for a certain quota

never gonna happen

 

[rck01]

never gonna happen

Wow! That's really disappointing. I had assumed the Avant would get lollipop per the rumor sites and since it's a relatively current phone (still for sale on the metro site).

Feels like my Blackberry Playbook all over again.

The problem with the cam is in the apk
The size in the photo module class.

Alternative until it's fixed

Awesome camera. So far this seems to be working fine.

This is just my theory and opinion so don't quote me on it but this is what I'm seeing from the catalog
