ABOUT THE GALAXY ALPHA CM-13.0 PROJECTI'm working on getting CyanogenMod working on the Galaxy Alpha since October 2014. This ROM is not complete. There are still features which are not fully working and there are for sure things which need bugfixing. Please check the
Known Bugs section before reporting issues.
I work on this project for FREE and putting in a lot of hours into it. A small donation would help to buy better tools to improve the development some day.RECOVERYTo be able to install the ROM you need a recovery. I suggest to use my TWRP Recovery build. You can find it
here.
BACKUPBefore installing the ROM you should create backups.
The most important backup is to create one of the EFS partition and store it on safe place on your computer. If something goes wrong you need to restore this partition. It holds information about your device, like the MAC address for your wifi and information for the radio.
DOWNLOADYou are storing very sensitive information on your phone. You always have to be careful what ROMs you flash and whom you trust. If you don't trust me then don't use my ROM or compile it from source by yourself.
The ROM will be gpg signed with my key 0xCC014E3D. You can verify the ROM with 'gpg --verify cm-12.1-20150901-UNOFFICIAL-slte-beta1.zip.asc '.
Detailed information and instruction for Windows can be found
here.
Download BETAFLASHING THE ROMAs this is a Marshmellow (Android 6) based ROM you need to flash sboot (bootloader) and the modem image from one of the latest LL releases. Or install a LL ROM via the Samsung update option. You can find the latest stock ROM
here. Suggested modem version is: G850FXXU2COK6 or newer
I suggest to put the ROM on a USB disk and use a USB OTG cable to flash the ROM. It is also possible to put it on the emulated sdcard and flash it from there.
GAPPSI suggest to use
Open GAPPS.
REPORTING BUGS Quote:
Give the programmer some credit for basic intelligence: if the program really didn't work at all, they would probably have noticed. Since they haven't noticed, it must be working for them. Therefore, either you are doing something differently from them, or your environment is different from theirs. They need information; providing this information is the purpose of a bug report. More information is almost always better than less.
