I was wrong

Same magic does the job on Nexus 5 running CM12 with Sailfishos 2.0.5.6.

Nice! Will that be working on FP2 using the same method? Anyone willing to give a try?

I had a typo in the name of the egl file but it did not matter with regards to starting apps. Sound works but video not. Whats your experience with video on alien + CM11 base?

I have 2.0.4.13 version installed and it does not install aliendalvik.
It freezes on Installing packages.
I tried updating to 2.0.5.6 on a fresh install whole night it was doing update but in the morning it was frozen on 82 %. I force rebooted and it did not even boot. ****ING REFLESH AGAIN. WTF is wrong with update? How did you update to 2.0.5.6 can you post commands?

For now aliendalvik does work on my 2.0.4.13 but i tried google play services and aliendalvik does not start after just coping needed files in /opt/alien/ folder. But i did same with my nexus 4 and it works great.

P.S. Camera does not work for me.

Please refer to the Nexus 5 thread regarding upgrade issues, most of us are struggling with OTA.

Can you play video files?

Nice! I will install another Sailfish with multirom, update it to the latest version and try it

BluesLee, could you tell us what commands did you run? It would be very useful a complete guide.

edit: could you please try if gps works for android applications? I would use it for Here Maps...

Also please guide us on how to find the specific config file (in my case it's opx with cm12.1 base)

You should search for this same libs as in the sh file. For example egl.cfg is in /system/lib/egl folder in CM11 but as you see it's in /vendor/lib/egl/ folder in CM12. It should be in the same place if you use CM12.

P.S.
I am now modifying aliendalvik.rpm to include this sh file in it. also editing build.prop for screen density. Nexus 4 and nexus 5 have different dencity and everything is smaller with this aliendalvik on nexus 5. Of course you can edit it after installation but i like simple things. I will generate aliendalvik.rpm for nexus 4 & nexus 5. If you want give me sh file for your device and i'll generate that too. Because it's easier to install just one rpm then after installation stop service copy file change mods on that file and start service
