Android 4.4.2 Omnirom - Samsung Captivate Glide

I read about an omnirom available for our captivate glides running 4.4.2
Anyone tried running this yet? How stable is it?
I found the link here: http://true-android.blogspot.ca/2014/03/update-samsung-captivate-glide-sgh-i927.html
I also dont know, for any rom that has separate gapps, when would you flash those? After or before the new rom? at the same time? Like, if after a ROM flash it automatically reboots, it will boot up with no gapps and likely not run - correct?
Was just curious about how buggy it is. Even if down the road when things are smoother, im excited to see if i can get this one running!

Gapps is included. You must install rom zip first, because it formats system partition.
Official gapps doesnt compatible with our phone, I think its better not installing.

hmm..

I am using omni ROM . . somehow I find it less buggy than cm 11
Nevertheless I would wanna give my thanks and even though I am pointing out bugs . . I really do appreciate his work .. A lot
Omnirom is very very stable has all if not most of the theming features except for trebuchet launcher
//It is a bit more battery consuming but I like it cause I am able to run my processor at 1.4ghz which is sweeeet!!!
//It has issues with OK Google functionality the audio is lagged and irritating
//The Google experience launcher is not built for it
//It has issues with Google maps 7 but there is a fix to have 6th version to back you up when needed
//it has issues with Skype and the fix is work in progress I guess..
//GPs is a bit slow but works
//WiFi direct crashes for me
Once in a blue moon the phone might rebot itself cause of a crash..
Though considering WiFi tethering , 3g switching, link2sd ,memory swapping
Ksm everything is working really try it . . its an amazing experience from an amazing phone

Can someone tell me the difference between wifi direct, wifi sharing, and wifi sharing manager??
Wifi itself is working in 4.4.2 right?
Also, were your keyboard backlights working automatically or did you ened qwerty led?
is qwerty led something that needs to be running all the time. or "ongoing" in the top drawer?

Wi-fi direct is a type of communication between two devices, similar to Bluetooth, so you can send files. I never used this, even when transfering big files from one phone to another, it's better to use an USB OTG cable - the connection speed is lightning fast!
Don't know what you mean about wi-fi sharing. Maybe wi-fi tethering (hotspot) - it's when you share your phone 2G/3G internet connection via wi-fi. This thing is working fine. Wi-fi itself is working, of course.
As for keyboard light: when tested OmniROM, I used liblight solution, but the qwertyled using is simple too: just launch it and you're done. While the service is running, keyboard light will work.
Now I'm on CM 11, and I have 11 days of uptime already, I recommend this ROM (but that's just my taste). In CM 11 keyboard backlights are working from the box, no need for qwertyled.
Also, I looked at the link you posted, to the true-android blog. Please, don't use the guide one can found there, it's awful. You can't install 4.4.2 ROM with recommended 2.6.3.0 TWRP, the correct one is 2.6.3.1 from bubor here, and you don't need any gapps beside included in the ROM.
Better use this guide from stormdude124: [UPDATED][2014][How-to]Everything you need to know and do to your Captivate Glide, it's updated, it's verified and there's no ads!

Can you use a cyanogen mod rom with clockworkmod recovery installed? i remember trying cyanogenmod with my phone and couldnt get it to work.

Just flash TWRP 2.6.3.1 from link above, it's superior to clockworkmod recovery (CWM) in all ways: touch interface, working backups with compression, charging support and it allows to install KitKat roms. With CWM you can install ROMs up to android 4.3, so, you still can install CM 10.1.3 or CM 10.2 with CWM, but not CM 11.

about wifi direct and sharing...

Hey yeah the difference btw wifi direct and sharing is that in wifi direct you connect two devices directly to transfer files...
in wifi sharing you need to host a web adress to share your files
as a result in wifi sharing you host a list of your stuff on a web adress(local) which gets downloaded by other devices on your wifi connection
and a wifi sharing manager can either do this (host ur files using an ip) or my personal favorite is astro which can acess my pc's sharing folder over wifi which is preety awesome>..unlimited storage
also note that in a wifi sharing manager you cannot recieve files easily . . maybe airdroid but it can only run on a pc
wifi sharing apps are airdroid and other file managers like root browser
wifi direct requires specific drivers and libs... i guess.. hence not all devices can do it ..
anyway you should go for cm 11 or omni both are incredibly stable with an occasional hiccup.. which is occasional heh
also would suggest that if you do proceed to install please follow from the developer sources on xda rather than some blog etc

Evervolv KK 4.4 on HTC Desire

I have tried the Kitkat ROM of Evervolv and I want to report my experience.
You can find the ROM here:
http://nikez.nu/Download.php?getFile=dlc/ev_bravo-4.0.0p2-turba.zip
I found the ROM very reliable. No crash no reboot no SOD. There are 2 main bug:
1) The hotspot doesn't work.
To fix this problem is sufficient to replace the file hostapd and hostapd_cli with those in this ZIP:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2434441&d=1386246859
as reported here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=48161953&postcount=128
2) The browser has flickering screen. You can disable it from Settings->Apps->All->Browser and try another browser. I use Opera because is lightweight and usable. Try it out: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.opera.browser
Without a2sd the system is very fast and fluent. If you want to use it would suggest to use at least a Class 10 sd card otherwise the app loading and even the screen unlock can take more than 5 seconds.
If you want to install a2sd DO NOT put the dalvik cache on the sd card unless you have a very fast sd card. Otherwise this will slow down your phone. I've installed 15 / 20 app and I have about 30 MB left on the internal storage, so I think this is enough. To install app data only to sd card install the script in this way:
a2sd install
N
Y
Y
There is a feature that i liked of the previous Evervolv JB and was the home screen rotation. In this ROM there isn't such feature. In my opinion is very frustrating to have the screen rotated back to the portrait mode when in landscape mode i press the home key. To enable home screen rotation I installed Nova Launcher app and enabled screen rotation by: Nova Settings -> Look and feel -> Screen Orientation -> Auto Rotate
Thank you again to the Evervolv Team.
It's 2 week that I installed this ROM and still no problems.
The olny thing I noticed sometime is a delay in the screen power on when you want to hang up a call. The screen remains black for 3-4 seconds and then if you press the power button again it work. I think this could depend on the number of the apps opened on the phone indeed this doesn't happen every time.
VPN - Another Kitkat bug with evervolv?
Hi,
currently I'm running the ev nightly-2013-12-15. Since yesterday I tried to activate a VPN connection into my home lan (connected with an AVM Router). It does NOT work. While the "internal" VPN Software does not tell me some interesting information a second try with VPNCilla shows:
--- cut here ---
Error on establish:
command '693 interface fwmark rule add tun0'
failed with '400 693 Failed to add fwmark rule (File exists)'
Possible reason: invalid server parameter or TUN device unavailable
---cut here ---
With this error message I find in google some information about a VPN problem in 4.4. BUT: my wife's brand new nexus 5 with Kitkat connects without trouble immediately with the same login data.
So what's the problem with ev here?
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance
I have never tested VPN with android though I had problems getting hotspot to work. I had to substitute the hostapd and hostapd_cli file to fix the problem (I posted how to achieve it in the previous post).
Have you tried the turba release ? Maybe the problem is related to a nightly bug.
However It is true that the Nexus 5 has a 4.4 too but the kernel version is different. The evervolv version run with the 2.6.37 kernel version because probably the driver (or kernel modules) of the HTC desire are not available for the new kernel version 3.x.x that is the version used for Nexus 5 and other official release.
So different hardware and software can lead to different behavior of the software.
The only thing that come into my mind is to try with a shell (adb shell) to manually create a VPN connection to see what specific errors are showed up.
I think this is a great rom, which runs very smoothly.
I have currently installed the ev_bravo-nightly-2014.01.22-squished.zip from yesterday on my desire.
But I have a problem using Wifi connection. At first it worked, but now Wifi wont turn on. It also says MAC-Adress is unavailable. What I have done was to delete the app2sd script from init.d and to install Int2ExtV2 (runs perfectly). I don't know if this can cause the interference? I have not made any other changes.
It would be great if anybody knew, how to fix it.
I have not tried connecting to a VPN so far.

Hi,
I'm running Nikez's 4.0.0p2 version and it's great! No JB rom is such stable and fast. For me, there are no bugs, but I don't use hotspot feature. Is it worth to upgrade to nightly versions? I'll maybe wait until Nikez releases next version with stable 3.0 kernel .
Do MMS work?
Sent from my HTC Desire using xda app-developers app
I haven't already tried the new nightly but I guess that it is not as stable as the 4.0.0p2. I prefer stable ROMs because I use my Desire daily. This is the most stable and faster ROM I found among Evervolv ROMs. So I would suggest you to keep the 4.0.0p2 unless you have a blocking problem with this ROM.

For quimbexa :
I've tried two times but the screen only show "SENDING...". I waited for 2 hour and then i deleted the messages. So this feature could be buggy.
Why do you need this feature ? Using whatsapp or similar app it's faster and cheapest than using MMS today.

[Q] Common problems of cm9, cm10 and cm11 already known?...

Hello,
I detected the following systematic problems of cm9..11
1.) Skype cannot be started at all. It does not even react on a click of its icon. And no error message appears.
2.) the akku load status is shown incorrect during load process. E.g. after 4 hours load it shows 37% instead of true 100% (which is shown after reboot).
3.) The wonderful app 'lgCamera' runs very slow and jerky. This was fine in Android 2.x versions.
4.) the FM radio app for the WFS radio tuner (no internet radio!). How can I find it (and flash it into the system folder as a system app)?
I suppose that everybody can confirm my problems!?...
Are those already known by the development team? Cause I wonder that they are not fixed in ALL CyanogenMod versions yet!
Will there be a chance to expect their fix soon?...
5.) Furtheron I have big compatibility problems when flashing cm9..cm11 ROMs and others. Error message: "cannot load volume /misc. Can't partition non-vfat: /storage (vfat)". For nearly each ROM I have to change the recovery. Currently I change between the following recoverys (one of them allways works):
twrp-2.2.2.0, twrp-2.7.1.0, Phil-Z 6.43.7, cwm-5.0.2.8, cwm-6.0.5.3. Nobody else having that problem?...
Is there any recovery version that can read all 'formats' of zip files?...
Will there be compatibiliy at least at the backup files between all of them?...
Thank you VERY much for a quick help!
1.) not compatible anymore, say Thanks to Skype
2.) This is probably problem with battery not reading voltage correct anymore on charger (happens) for me on all roms even stock. (After 100000 of flashes and almost 3years old down sucked battery
3) ics and up isn't made for this phone, slow downs and other incompatibility can happen.
4) There is a solution called spiritfm(free) Google it, you will find the xda thread.
5) twrp 2.2.2.0 and cwm 5 is working on all ROMs beside newer kk builds (needs recovery compiled with TLS support, newest ones available)
Greetings Kevin
Hallo Kevin,
I am so glad that you answer! Thank you very much!!
to 1.) Yes, I realised meanwhile that Skype 4 ist still running fine. So the reason why the new Skype 5 version does not work on Wildfire S (or even on all CM versions of all devices??) you don't know!?...
to 2.) So this is a general Andrid 4.x problem of Wildfire S device only?... (cause e.g. on Galaxy S4 stock (of my girl-friend) it works fine!...
to 4.) Thank you. I installed this free version '0918fr.apk' but I get the error message (su rights confirmed): "Error: No FM accessible. SU: 0 Fm:BC2 SU:0 Bt:3 Ht:0 Mo:BCU". It does not seem to be compatible although I have read everywhere that it should work. Is this maybe antoo old version? Or what can be the reason?...
to 5.) So I used newer version 'cwm-6.0.5.3' and 'twrp-2.7.1.0', as I mentioned, but then these versions do not support older version than KK. E.g. 'CronMod-INT2EXT+_signed.zip'. This is the problem. Any solution?...
Is TLS ment as 'Thread-local storage'?...
Another short request:
a) Video recording with cm11 on Wildfire S works now without any patch. But if I record a video longer than about 5 seconds and I want to watch it directly after having stopped recording (timeframe about 7 seconds) then the camera app crashes. Can you confirm that on Wildfire S? What can be the reason?...
If Olivier's camera patch will help here as well I have not tested yet...
b) Management of Launcher and App screen is somehow circumstancial or not even possible. This is why the option 'Homescreen' is missing in 'Personalization' ('cm-11-20140816-Nightly') although the related screenshots of cm11 in XDA show this option!! E.g. App icons cannot be sorted alphabetically or cannot be manually moved within the screen. Or the home panel is the most left one instead of the middle one. Etc.
Any reason why the option 'Homescreen' was deleted (in XDA cm11 screenshots for Wildfire S still show it!! S. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2735775 )?...
c) CM11 OTA update suggests me 'cm-11.0.0-RC9' as the first in the list. Is this really more actual than the installed 'cm-11-20140816-Nightly' (version 11.0-20140816) ?...
d) In this version the Email system app is missing. Why?
Any zip to flash it anywhere? Or do I have to use one of the market?...
e) No warm reboot option available anymore in cm versions?...
Thanks for your help again, Kevin!
Many greetings, Falk
to 5.) I could solve that problem meanwhile by myself. I downloaded a modified version of cwm 6.0.5.3 here:
http://click.xda-developers.com/api...5.0] - Post #52 - XDA Forum&txt=the new build
But I still do not know what was modified! You?...
6.) you forgot the ever present mobile data bug at least for cm9 and cm10. Which no1 evens bothers to mention

oh, its super present .
It was a "common" problem in cm9, cm10 based roms, at least judging from the various threads dating back to 2013. And as I discovered yesterday its also present in CM11 RC9 for me.
Occurence of the bug is very random and seems to be bound to certain providers which makes it hard to debug/fix i guess.
Sadly, from what I've read "deal with it and toggle airplane mode when you need mobile data" or "install cm7" are the ways to handle this bug.
cheers

Nfc is probably not working at all, not sure.
GPS acts a little weird sometimes.
Video compression results in pure trash.

DOWNLOADS
Please note this build is for bug-hunting purposes only, yet! (Plain CM is boring anyways)
I am just starting to build for this device and with this build am currently trying to get a stable basis for other roms.
My goal is having a fully working code-base for any AOKP-based 4.4 ROM.
So PLEASE join the testing phase, try every ****ing functionality on your phone and report the results here, so i know whats done and what needs to be done. Thanks!
Rom
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/gd42e500zsrl7e0/AACjh4We8ZjULayjWFL7Y1lla?dl=0
Gapps
Use any "ARM - 4.4" package from open gapps (i recommend the nano variant)
Bootloader/Recovery
If you are still on a locked bootloader, having an unrooted stock rom, or an old twrp installed, use this updated unlock/recovery suite for windows and linux:
TWRP 2.8.1.0
SOURCE CODE
https://github.com/hwmt1-u06/android
NOTICE:
I removed the asound codecs, which increases the sound volume dramatically. I wanna enjoy my music loud, when i'm sitting in the bus!
This kinda ****s up the speaker, since its too loud now, which causes clipping.
I use the Equalizier in CM's DSP Manager to reduce the speaker volume (by turning all levels around -6db)
Having loud volume, and the ability to decrase it, is better than having silence and no ability to increase it, right? Thats like going to the hair stylist and wanting longer hair.
Cool, thanks for your effort!
Will give it a try when I feel I have enough time
UPDATE V0.2
CHANGES
Fixed rebooting to recovery
Changed some default system props related to adb and root
Thats it, any bugs?
Otherwise i will now focus on porting more aokp roms, building twrp and a maybe a kernel.
Hi,
is NFC functional in this ROM?
(In B331 is not.)
Stutter bluetooth audio sometimes?
(In B331 there is)

Its probably both messed up as well in this ROM, i don't have the hardware to test those functions. Maybe you can tell me
Misjudged, in your instructions I see a clear distinction between a "first time install" and an "update install".
What is the difference between the two?
I mean, I get an idea what it is about but do not feel confident to base a decision on.

its meant like this:
- first install the first installation of THIS rom
- update install is when you already have this rom installed (e.g. v0.1) and you wanna update to another version of this rom (e.g. v0.2), and keep your apps, data and settings.
and remember to backup first!
EDIT: Updated instructions in first post
Very good, thanks!
Okay been giving this CM11 ROM a test drive this week on my Mate. My Mate is the 1 gig version and I have a bad case of call ? screen delay on this ROM. Is there a patch that can help with this? I will admit though that I probably expect too much from my poor little Mate because I have tons of apps on it
I must say though your ROM is the smoothest running ? CM11 ROM I've tried. Good job.
If I could only get rid of or just reduce the call screen delay I could run ? this as my daily driver. But this week I just missed too many calls due to the call ? screen delay.
Keep up the good work. You can depend on me to test any ROMs you put out. :thumbup:

Flashed it on my P6, replaced the kernel with the AK cm kernel for P6 and switched to ART. Very smooth rom, havent seen any issues or bugs yet except the wifi dropping, which does not mean much as it instantly reconnects. Good job.
Edit: Don't know about the ascend Mate but on the P6 OTG is fully functional and stable.
after 24 hours of being my phone:
Bluetooth audio gave me a full cd instead of less than one song, gps works.
I only miss pie control, but that in not CM if I read correctly.
Keep up the good work!
Would love to try your version of carbon rom, if you get round to that
Thanks for tests your reports, guys!
let's see..

Wait.. what? Are you telling me a2dp is working perfectly fine? I did not expect that at all!
Yeah, i will port more ROMs, but first i had to have my own kernel (see below) :fingers-crossed:

ive already patched in a tweak to help that problem atleast a little, i am not sure if theres more i can do.
as far as i know it's a well known jb/kk-problem on devices with very low ram... i had an LG O2x, which hab like 500MB ram or something... it was pretty much ununsable when someone called. i remember something like they started to remove the incallUI from the permanently-open list - if you know what i mean. and that's why it's causing this problem.
i don't really have this problem at all, to be honest. so maybe you can help it by removing some service-apps.. or maybe theres some app to force another app to stay loaded? i don't know, just an idea.

arg... P6? different kernel?
so your report doesnt really help me, since i dont even know what the exact differences between the MT1 and the P6 are, and most off the hardware related stuff is kernel related!
Good to see it's running well for you, though.
But thank you very much, srsly.
btw: you are having the wifi dropping too? thats weird, i was sure thats a kernel & /system/lib/modules thing.
...which is why i focused on kernel building for now. It seems like some people are smashing any modules they can find at their kernel until it works somehow. - this is a huge mistake. kernel modules in /system/lib/modules MUST be built against the exakt same kernel, they will be used on.
To be sure to have that clean, i felt like i need to get into that stuff as well. - and i actually just succeded like 30 minutes ago.
I will try out some things on this build, and when everything seems stable to me, i will even release my own kernel, which will always be shipped with the correct modules
But that will be HIGHLY experimental, and for the MT1 only!
Only had minor hiccups when browsing the internet at the same time.
Now testing the second session of music
Edit: A few more hiccups in one session, pretty good play a bit later. Very usable.
Installed and so far its very smooth
Maps thinks I am at a different road every now and then, causing strange new rout options. But this corrects quickly.
Can not get navigation started by clicking address in calendar appointment, then maps keeps restarting. Had the same thing with Mr. Amids carbon rom.
It does start from clicking icon and copy/paste the address.

interesting.. is there any cm based rom, where you dont have that problem?
Carbon was the only 4.4.4 rom by Mr. Amid I got working, I know now (with your explanation) that I should have wiped data too when flashing a new rom.
I can not recall having the Maps problem with 4.2 roms.
UPDATE V0.3
CHANGES

Android 6.0 Marshmallow for jflte(Unofficial cm13)

After impatiently waiting for that day to arrive, here it is: Android 6.0 for our dear s4 is there thanks to our great dev @AntaresOne.
He brought us an unofficial cm13 for the unified s4 variants (jflte) which is stable enough to be used as a daily driver. All credits go to him.
Almost all the basic functions work.
FYI, it's a goodbye gift.
Download link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63729768&postcount=312
Please, used the gapps suggested by the dev. Otherwise, you may face bootloop.
Enjoy but remember to thank @AntaresOne for this awesome work!

I'm downloading it right now and going to give it a shot. Hopefully everything works out, including using streaming services like Netflix or Hulu Plus. Will report findings soon.
I have read that cm13 will support tmobile wifi calling will it work with the s4 builds? Is it implemented in this build?

It should work if the signature verification is skipped.
Also be sure that the downloaded file is correct; some of the mirrors do not yield the correct file andd have a different checksum.
The checksums should be:

Successfully flashed here. However internal and external mic don't work as well as auto time zones. Other than that, I haven't noticed an issue. I guess at first glance it also does not appear to be rooted.
Trying this on my Metro PCS S4 (jfltetmo) since it's not my daily driver and not connected to their network. So far it seems to be stable, but the battery usage is not good at the moment. The top of the list shows "Uncounted" using the battery the most. Not sure what that means. I am willing to help with testing this rom for this model jfltetmo, so if you want any info from this phone, let me know what and how to get it, and I will gladly share.
This thing did not work for me, leaving the phone stuck at the Galaxy S4 screen at boot. Restored using Odin and stock image, my device is the M919V.
CM 13flashed
Everything works fine but microphone. It does not work at all; call, skype, hangout, voice recorder, etc.

It's a known issues in all cm13 built. No fix for it yet.
Is this ROM dead? or will it be updated to work with microphone fix?

It cannot. Since ICS, T-Mobile's WiFi Calling has depended on TouchWiz to work. Sadly, for the S4, TouchWiz is stuck on 4.4.4 KitKat and likely won't be moving up to Lollipop. As of now, I keep a working KK TW Rom backup up as a Nandroid in case I need it but I've since resigned myself to moving on.
Need something to fix 6.0
I downloaded the Android 6.0 marshmallow for tmobile and the 6.0 gapps i flash them with TWRP recovery on my galaxy s4 I cannot create an APN because it says my device model is unknown and sims card is not inserted what do I need to do to fix this or is it just a CM bug.
Same^ any help
i used these micro gapps http://opengapps.org/

I think that a work around would be to call with hangouts... That's what I use to call over Wi-Fi

Emotion OS - But Stable! :) Please help

So, if anyone can point me to the right direction please do!! I just need a little help to find and maybe make a fix for some problems that I enjoy using from the Emotion OS r22 Rom..
So....after awhile i just gave up and just used the N7 Port instead because I grew tired of.....these issues from Emotion OS and I don't have these in the N7 Ported rom.
====Issues====
Camera Doesn't record in 60FPS or 4K.
Fast Charging doesn't seem to exist in the system , especially when it's selected in the Kernel Auditor.
it reads at Cable Charging, USB Charging but theirs no Fast Charging but I DO see, Charging on AC.
Snapchat Support! - Having to Import Through Titanium, Not every-time but after every install of this Rom if needed be.
Method is to.
Backup the Snapchat Data before hand from a TW Rom that lets me Login, ovbiously because its stock and not rooted it should bypass. OR To Download Snapchat on the Rooted Phone, Uninstall it, Reboot, Login, profit? ,reinstall root.
GPS issues where it eithers locates but doesn't navigate well, doesn't lock, or doesn't work at all.
=-=--SMS-=-=-=
*#*#*# SMS FIX *#*#*#
It doesn't work unless I do that *#*#4636#*#* fix
I use an app called "Advanced Signal Status" and I select
CDMA ONLY or CMDA Auto PRL wait for it to switch and then Select LTE/ CDMA Auto PRL, but as
it can be hassle as i have to do this for every reboot.
And that will be if it only works for 5 minutes then i have to do that fix for it or hjust doing this anyways after every reboot...
==========
Just talk ---
=========
All i end up using is Snap,PK GO, Viper 4 Android for Pandora, Spotify, Insta, FB, FB Messenger, SoundCloud, Inkpad, Colornotes, Ifunny, Daily Horoscope, Vaulty, recforge Pro, Scr Pro,Yahoo,Gmail, Drive,Tumblr, teamviewer, Regular music app, and even root explorer as my daily driver. And obivously clearing apps almost immediately when i'm not using it anymore but overall nothing else really. lol And I'm just wishing and hoping for and if theirs a rom like Emotion OS but with Working SMS and MMS and Phone just like the N7 Ported Rom......AS I'm using it right now or aswell as the Camera Ported From the N7 Rom to the Emotion OS Rom.. AS I'm not sure what to do, I want to make a permanent fix or flash able zip instead of having to do the dialer code after every reboot. I was thinking of using the APNS from a working custom rom a.k.a the N7 Port and then trying the Rom after that but I just don't know the information for that, I'm more like the reporting and or reporter and Rom guinea pig lol but I also had wished it would install as fast as the AOSP Emotion OS Rom. But i just yeah I'm not sure, I do have a partition and an extra EFS backup and everythings has been running just fine for me with the N7 Rom.
Do you if anybody would happen to know of a Rom the way I describe it? I am also-up for testings Roms that are in develop as i had made a full list of "Roms in The Graveyard" on my PC but only 2 of them I kept as they are reliable to me for the moment. Stock just doesn't do it for me but deoxdexed has lol and the N7 Port but my phones basically my guinea pig for Rom Testing. and I don't ever use magisk just official Super Su or Super User. but i haven't seen that for along time, since S3 days .lol
