Thank you, Paolo!
Comparing with V7 this version run smoother. There are minor improvements in CM13 interface (when answering a phone call, for example) and minor bugs fixed.
V7 gave me some problems and entered into a bootloop after one month usage and atfer some apps update process that made me revert to V4, but this V8 after two days looks really cool.

As usual, thank you for supporting this fantastic smartphone. ;-)

Still present.

link rel V9 in first page

Hi Paulo,
I am using V4. After I boot up my phone for 1-2 days, its phone volume will be unavoidably "mute" (i.e. no sound). But when I look into the volume setting, it is still full apparently.
I have tested it by booting into Safe Mode, and this problem persist. Therefore, it is a system problem, not problem caused by custom installed apps.
Has this problem been alerted and solved from V5-V9?

Make a backup in TWRP and flash the latest update. If you don't like it you can restore your backup. ...

Hi Paolo!
CM 13 V9 sound problem persists. After connecting the headphones, the sound of a "player" or "Internet" (YouTube, radio) goes through the top speaker. It helps to restart.

you talk about normal or bluetooth headphones ?
with a normal headphone I've never had this problem

Hi Paolo. Two days ago phone radio goes off and stops reading the sim card. So i cant use the phone. After a few reboots is working again. But a few hours later it does the same again. Is it the rom or something else

Thanks for your work :huhu:

Thank you very much for your awesome work, your roms are the reason I got this device in the first place(and I also got 2 more for my friends since I saw how smooth my phone was running with your cm13). Bluetooth music bug is finally fully fixed in release v10, tested it today. Hope you can compile more roms, like resurrection remix, or AOSPA. Also, one little question, is the phone capable of qualcomm fast charge? Could it be included with a kernel patch? Regards, and keep up the good work.

Thank you very much for your hard work and dedication paolo, the only reason I haven't bought a new phone are these awesome updates. :perfect:

Hello again, i tried to build resurrection remix with your device tree, after a lot of tinkering everything was successful, rom built fine, but flashing the build just makes the phone stuck at the nubia logo. Is there something specific i should do to make it bootable? The compiled kernel (from your tree) works fine with your cm13 rel 10. Hope you can help! I am willing to bring some more flavors of android on this lovely phone, based on your awesome sources and hopefully learning and fixing some issues on my own.

I got it working. Resurrection remix for the z7 max BASED ON PAOLOW8'S SOURCES. I will test the rom first tilli deem it stable enough for release. I also have an idea for solving the bluetooth stuttering, i will try it and post the solution for paolo too. I just came up with a minor annoyance. Your latest ported nubiacamera app crashes when i switch to the front camera. That happened in other roms too, as well as on every marshmallow for the z7 mini(my friend owns the mini, i will build for him too). That app works well only on cm12.1 roms and your cm13, not my my newly build resurrection remix. Do you have any idea on how to fix it?

for the front camera fix copy this file inside the directory frameworks/base/core/java/org/codeaurora/camera/ and recompile

QCFace.java

That worked! Thank you very much! I noticed that if i turned off the expression recognition(that little smile next to the settings cog) the front camera stopped crashing and worked properly, so that was what it was missing.

I discovered 2 more minor issues. Messenger, facebook and probably more social networking apps fc at login time, an issue i fixed by substituting libssl.so and libboringssl-compat.so from your cm builds. Your files fully fixed it, although i would be great to have them fixed at the source level. What i also discovered today, is that my build fails the 3d part of antutu benchmark every time by crashing the 3dbench application at random times. I tried a few 3d games and they play fine, so i don't consider it to be that big an issue, apart from the much lower antutu bench scores(about 40000 without the 3d part). I tried 3dmark and it worked ok, except for the part with the offscreen rendering, so that could be a lead to fix the problem.

On the upside, i tried a fix i found on the 4pda forum for the bluetooth music, removing hci_qcomm_init from the vendor folder and i have not encountered stuttering on a2dp yet, although i didn't have time to test it throughly. The random reboots that cm13 rel v10 had on high accuracy location mode are also completely gone as well, i tested pokemon go(which was unplayable on rel 10) and it played fine and rock stable. You probably have that fixed on rel 11 though :) . Thank you for your contribution and your help, hope you can take some time to help a fellow in learning the inner workings of android!

I already removed the hci_qcomm_init in rel V10 but the problem doesn't seem fixed, stuttering sometimes reappears

for the facebook, messenger etc bug try to add this patch in your source code
Gerrit Code Review

The patch worked perfectly. Not only camera, fb/messenger is fixed, but the 3d test gpu problem is gone as well. I run antutu and i got 60000 score. Thank you very much paolo! I can post the rom now, giving all credits to you for the work and help.

I tried including some of ultimatum163's kernel fixes from here: https://github.com/ultimatum163/andr...l_nubia_nx507j . After merging his latest commits for bluetooth and a2dp in the kernel source and compiling, the a2dp issue seems to be gone. Before, after 10-15 mins maximum i would get stuttering, and the only solution was a reboot. Now i could play music for more than 2 hours, connect/disconnect the bluetooth connection(that was almost sure to cause stuttering), and i got no stuttering so far. I am not that good with git yet, but i will soon push the changes to my repos (once i figure out the commands :) ) . Have a look at the latest commits paolo, and you will probably have that persistent bug squashed in your next release as well.

thanks, I will try with this ultimatum163 kernel patch

Paolothlw8

Hello, I compiled CM13, Gello run time flash back, which is where the problem? Thank you!

Hello, you can have a look at my git here: https://github.com/MrPink7 . I have uploaded all my source changes, which include the bluetooth a2dp fix, adding f2fs for /cache and /data, adding crypto support for /data and fixing CVE-2016-2059. Feel free to include whatever you like in your new release. I'm currently trying to fix CVE-2016-2503 but i get stuck at logo every time i flash the modified kernel. If i get it working it'll be up in my git.

Fixed! Changes in my github shortly. Only vulnerability remaining is CVE-2016-5340. I applied the patch correctly for this vulnerability, but it still isn't fixed. Will try merging the patch from other kernel trees.

I already added the patch fix for cve-2016-2059, 2503, 2504, 5340 (quadrooter vulnerability) and cve-2016-2060.
if I check with the app qualcomm vulnerability scanner still say vulnerable only to cve-2016-2504 but if I try with the app quadrooter scanner say vulnerable only to cve-2016-5340....so....who is right ? :)

for the bluetooth fix, I already tried the kernel fix by ultimatum163 but the problem still present, sometimes audio start stuttering again
anyway, now I check your source code :)
thanks

edit:
I saw that you are using a different acdbdata blobs, where did you get them? (now I try with your blobs)

You are correct about the stuttering, although the patch did improve the stability of the a2dp connection a great deal, it was unusable before(for me), but now it still happens, but it could happen so rarely as to not notice it at all. Overall it happened 1 time with the patch in place,in 4-5 days using the a2dp for car music, and a reboot solved it and music was playing for more than 1 and a half hours without problems on my friend's car with bluetooth stereo. All this with the old acdbdata blobs. Haven't got the chance to test the new ones yet.

Ultimatum163 posted them as a patch in his nubia z7 mini thread in 4pda. I used them in my latest builds but did not have the chance to test the a2dp yet, no friend here with car stereo or bluetooth headset right now :) . Give them a try and report back, but i have the impression that they cause the call quality to deteriorate a little bit, so i reverted them, except the bluetooth one, in my local dir. Now my phone works fine with the old blobs(call quality seems fine to me again), with only the bluetooth one changed. If they help with the stuttering, i hope only the bluetooth one is enough.

As for the vulnerabilities, I tried both programs after doing my best with the patches, both report only CVE-2016-5430 remaining in my device.

Forgot to add: the blobs are from the nubia z5s. Users in the 4pda confirm that they completely solved the bug. Please test and tell which i have to keep in order to have it fixed without worse call audio quality.

ok I have tried the new blobs but the problem still exist, nothing changed :(

for the vulnerability....I have compared my kernel source code and your source code and the vulnerability patches are the same but to me the 2 apps show two different vulnerabilities

quadrooter: Imgur: The most awesome images on the Internet
qualcomm: Imgur: The most awesome images on the Internet

I don't know why :)

edit:
I have recompiled right now the whole rom so now I will retry with the new blobs

No, I tried and tried and the new blobs not fix the bluetooth problem

release V12 in first page

I am having some issues with messenger calls with my latest build with the rel12 changes(havent got a chance to test these in a long time). Do they work okay in your end? For me, i can hear the other side just fine, but they cannot hear me.

which messenger ?
anyway, the only thing I changed for the audio is the audio_effects.conf, you can try with the old version

The facebook messenger, but i guess viper and skype(all voip calls) will have the same issue. Anyways, trying with old audio_effects.conf.

Tried merging this commit : https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andro...7ce4e5cb1808d0 . Did not help, microphone is not working on facebook messenger or skype. It did improve voice quality though(because of qualcomm fluence), thinking about keeping it in place. Hope you have some idea to solve that.

I just tried now a call with whatsapp, no problem here :)
(I not use skype or other voip app)

edit:
you use the original acdb blobs or the z5s version ?

I am using the original blobs for everything except bluetooth. I wasnt using whatsapp before, tried it and the mic worked for that app. It just wont work on facebook messenger and skype so far. This is really weird, considering i have not used messenger for calls since rel v9, and it worked fine then. Maybe this is a cm source issue? Could be the new CMAudioService breaks something. If you could test skype too, i would be grateful, since i cannot test CM right now, or i have to format my internal storage(/data and /cache are in f2fs in my rom).
