oh yeaaaaahhh
Oh hell yes .... I've been waiting on pa for the longest... I know when time comes... Pa features will really look nice with lollipop!

Yes!!yes yes!!
Pretty good...seems pretty stable..i see its running the cm12 kernel...hopefully i dont get any kernel crashes (blue screen demigod)... Evey LP rom so far has been doing that alot..

Works great...
No miscellaneous battery usage going on and the video camera works too! Running great so far and I think I finally found my CM12 daily driver.
The *one* thing (and this could be user error) is no "clear all" button in recent apps. Other than one little minor thing, I'm very excited.
EDIT: Used it for a while w/ no miscellaneous battery usage showing up and then it showed up out of nowhere.

I built this thing straight off the AOSPA-Legacy source -- which appears to be an odd fork of cm-12, but with specific d851 drivers (except for the audio drivers, which I had to take from cm).
The "clear all" button thing -- yeah, it's also missing advanced reboot options, and...pretty much everything. It feels to me like this was a fork from cm12 that hasn't been updated as much. We'll see what happens development-wise -- I expect it to pick up soon. Either that, or Ill cherry pick the improvements and build from there. Maybe. I'm not really interested in building another damned cm12. What I'm interested in is building and maintaining PA 5.0.
The "miscellaneous" battery usage thing WILL go away after a couple of charging cycles. That's Lollipop's battery management system learning your battery usage pattern -- or so I've been told.I haven't had it pop up on me yet, but I have seen it with other AOSP 5.0 builds, and it's gone away after a charging cycle or two.

Hey, I'm just glad this phone is getting some AOSPA love -- been waiting for this one to get it. Much appreciated!

Excellent stuff. Is there a way I can get back the Close All Recent Apps button in the recent apps window or was that just a CM feature?

Mentioned just two posts above yours.

Anyone having any luck playing videos via the Instagram as well as the Vine app?
EDIT: Never mind. I did a quick dirty reflash and videos on Instagram and Vine (as well some mp4 videos on the web) started playing fine again.

Great ROM
Great ROM @CrusherJoe and other developpers.
Is it possible to have the following features:
- Advance booting/reboot ooptions (Reboot / Recovery, etc)
- Ability to change the DPI settings for those who love smaller icons.
Thanks.

No Reboot option
Haven't seen this one yet, any of you guys missing the reboot option? All I have is Power Off.

The dev hasn't gotten around to adding the root feature, if he even decides too.
In the mean time download quick boot (reboot) from the market.

Dirty flashed the new build. Everything seems to be working great.

I actually tried to cherry-pick advanced reboot from CM-12.0 this afternoon. All conflicts resolved, no errors at compile-time, clean flashed the resultant build, and...
...the option for advanced reboot showed up in development options, and you could check the little box to activate it, but that's all it did. Long-press on the power button resulted in the exact same "Power Off" (lack of) choice as before.
Evidently, AOSPAL handles shutdown options differently than CM-12.0 (which may be why cm_strings.xml was missing from frameworks/base in my local repo, now that I think about it).
*sigh*
Hopefully I'll have time to delve into it this evening. I really miss advanced reboot, too, and it's kinda my "windmill" to get it ported/added to AOSPAL...

About the dialer
Well I have been using the build that was released on 11-30-14 and everything works. I use my phone daily due to my job and it hasn't crashed on me at all, and I use the dialer a minimum of 10 times a day.

I love this ROM! Thanks for all the work. BUT, any ideas as to why the streaming of music (Pandora) to my Kenwood car audio head unit doesn't work with later versions of this ROM? I have no problems syncing the following;
Kenwood - Voice Calls :good:
Kenwood - Live Traffic Updates to nav software :good:
Moto 360 :good:
When I clean flash the early 5.0 ROM, not a problem. If I clean flash 5.0.1, it fails. I've been currently using my phone with Kenwood head unit and this ROM but only when I clean flash 5.0 and dirty flash the later updates.
FYI, NONE of the other available LP roms allow me to stream from my LG G3 at all.
Thanks

[ROM][5.1/LMY47D][AOSP] AOSP Lollipop: a wee better than stock.

AOSP LOLLIPOP: a wee better than stock.​Directly from the OMAP4XXX team, here it is... a completely stock experience.​
Back in July 2014, i started working on Android seriously. From a newbie, i had put up a nice kernel, aka the FreshKernel, based on Ziyan's rebased OZ, the first of its kind.
Later on, i joined the party on hangouts with all the other developer, to whom i'm really thankful. (@MWisBest, @aosp, @Ziyan, @bsmitty, @jhonnyx, pattyboi, @Hashcode, @Icepeda, @osm0sis and all the others i might have missed out.)
Few months later, i managed to sync my first repo (after dozens of root issues on my computer, ugh) and started working, a few days after the release of 5.0.0_r1.
Now, a month and a half after, i'm here to announce you my first rom, simply called: AOSP.
What does it differ from other ROMs?
Simple. It's philosophy is staying close to stock. Even closer that OmniROM. Closer to AOSP than AOSP itself.
Jokes apart, AOSP is the true philosophy, with a few tweaks to make it feel snappier but not too much intrusive changes.
Kinda how ShinyROM was for KK 4.4.
HOW STABLE IS IT
VERY STABLE.
But there are some bugs, however. They're more or less, the same as CM12 and FML.
-H/W Decoding has some issues. 3GP with AVC containers are buggy, as well as some rotation issues and lags.
-Camera is not saving pictures. This might be due to some resolution stuff being borked. Also, video throws out green lines. (Perhaps OMX?)
Aftermarket cameras work OK (I suggest Camera FV-5 or CameraFX)
-Offline Charging is broken. Also, "charging" text stays stuck on the lockscreen.
-Swipe on Google Keyboard is somehow, still broken.
-LMK is TOO DAMN aggressive.
More? You tell me!

What about your work for FML? Will you still be contributing to that project?

good luck with your project freshgiammi!
You should've called Fresh Rom xd
when I get my new phone, I will flash some 5.0 roms on my gnex since I won't use it as my main phone anymore. This one is surely included!

Thanks, this will be ext4 or f2fs also? And i don't understand but you say that other camera apps how camera zoom fx or camera fv-5 works, but for me not (in fml and cm12). Works for a few time and then not anymore, i get error and i must reboot to use camera again (and only for a few time)

Thumbs up Gianni!

Is GoogleBackupTransport working with this ROM? Works great with Ziyan's CM12 builds, not so much with FML.

Yes, of course. But since FML is MWisBest's rom, i don't think i should get the credits for his work.
So, here's my personal AOSP build, for those who like Android how it was meant to be.
PS. I'm having uploading issues, on both XDA and Dev-Host. Sorry for the inconvenience, i'll try to fix it quickly or otherwise, upload it on my Drive account.

zuper! 1 quick question: at least the hold back to kill button is /will be available in your ROM?
thank you

After huge struggling with FTP servers, DOWNLOAD IS LINK ON OP!

Yep, it's awesome. AOSP and no superfluous junk. With minimal GApps, it's perfect for building your device now Google's gone all modular. LMK is still a little OTT, but still, great job @freshgiammi - amazing. Those guys on ShinyROM sure are gonna be happy!

[8.1][LOS-based][ROM/Kernel]Mackay ROM

A few years ago, I have been building Mackay ROM, based on CyanogenMod for a number of devices. Due to being busy at work, I have stopped with that. I recently picked it up with again with a Mackay ROM based on LineageOS.
It is actually LineageOS, with a few extras that I always miss:
-SU build into the ROM
-No hash sign when using SU
-Network traffic speed option for statusbar
-OMS Substratum theming
-OmniClock in stead of Lineage Desk Clock
The bootanimation is made by my brother. It is the family coat of arms of the Scottish Mackay clan to which my family is linked.
I try to build this ROM on a weekly basis, but it mainly depends on when interesting features are available/merged
Download:
AndroidFileHost
Installation:
-Make sure you have recent TWRP installed (3.2.1-1)
-Make sure you have recent hardware blobs from MIUI (minimum 8.1.4)
-gapps can only be flashed on clean installs
-clean install (factory reset) if coming from another ROM, dirty flash if updating
I am open to suggestions for additions, but I prefer a clean ROM, just some basic extras over stock LineageOS has always been my approach for Mackay ROMs.
Credits:
This ROM would never have been possible without the hard work of bgcngm to make LineageOS for our mi5 and the other LineageOS developers.

I don't use LTE, so I can't say for sure. In general, because this ROM follows LineageOS, it will have to deal with the same problems as well.

I use it myself in dual-SIM mode and never encounter any signal loss.

hi and thanks for this first of all. I'm surely going to try it, even just for seeing the bootanimation..i love all that matters Scotland.. your country and national anthem, rugby, braveheart etc
personally i don't use LOS for a very few and not so intrusive things i think. first of all date in status bar, like in most all other los roms. could you add it? don't think it would be too intrusive, but it is a real deal breaker for me
other thing i look for is multiple actions for HW buttons (like in RR.. show volume panel, show quick settings panel etc and not only the los standard ones) but that's secondary as i can also use a hw button remapper app for that
ah, and dt2s everywhere in lock screen would be great also!
bye will report after trying your rom!

@kasper_h wow! that is THE surprise. For the young ones in the community, Mackey kernel/rom was the goto option for our Galaxy S(1) ! Glad to have you in this part of the forum. Are you planning on getting involved with the Mi5 kernel business as well?

tested the rom quicky. enabled root in Dev settings for apps but couldn't get root access for mixplorer?

@kasper_h perhaps adding QC3 fix from this commit?

I still have my S1 lying around, but stopped developing for it long time ago.
At the moment, I first want a robust ROM being build, then I'll look into the kernel as well. On S1, performance depended a lot on the kernel, I haven't seen such spectacular results on mi5 yet.

Date in statusbar is something I may look into. I actually use the calendar status pro widget, which also gives day of month in the status bar. May other apps can do the same as far as I know.
Remapping HW buttons is not something I'm interested in

That's true, kernels are more mature now, performance-wise we may not win much (save it for the 32GB Mi5 with mild OC to 2.15Ghz). However, I think that due to Xiaomi's not 'fully' functional sources, there is space for improving the functionality aka charging speed, sound quality, maybe EAS or interactive governor tuning etc. Your expertise on kernel modding would be valuable to this community as well!! thanks

thanks for the answer! yes I'm using an app right now to visualize the date in status bar in jdc's aosp, but i don't like so much having to use an app just for that

OK, so here is a build with the QC3 patch and today's Lineage codebase. Also includes upstream OMS substratum patches:

But the version now in the making for LOS still seems to suffer from problems. The latest build I posted few days ago does work with QC.

What a great surprise to see you around here! Another one who was following your work on the i9000. Great times and marvelous phone :') Hope to see more from you for the mi5, for sure trying out this, although RR is my comfort zone since november when i got the phone, hard to beat that loyalty on a phone of mine

thanks but I can't use this rom for the reasons i poster earlier, so I'm sticking with RR for now. i am trying the boot.img from your rom in RR though, let's see if it fixes QC in RR too for sure it did boot and everything seems to work, so already better than i thought!

I have been running build 0.26 for 3 days now as my daily driver. This rom is very stable. I am very happy that everything on this rom that I use on a regular basis works very well. The utouch button works flawlessly for me, even with the navigation bar enabled. The configuration is perfect to my preference - tap (back), press (home), swipe left (recents), swipe right (menu). The finger print scanner works perfectly. I have not had any issues. I was surprised when I first flashed the rom that there was not a messaging app or brower installed, but I guess that is part of the Slim concept. I was able to install messages and google chrome from the play story and they are working great. The battery life is comparable to Lineage OS and Mokee rom on my phone with my configuration. I will say with the other roms I was running Greenify as well, but with Slim7 I decided to try the rom without Greenify, and I am getting about the same battery life. SOT for me is a little over 4.5 hours. Performance is pretty good with an antutu score of 140662. I also rooted the rom with Magisk v12 and I have no issues with root. This rom is very smooth and works great. There are not a lot of configuration options with this rom, but what is available works very well. If you are looking for a stable rom, that works very well without a lot of extra "fluff", then I highly recommend this rom for you to try. Kudos to the development team on this rom. Thank you for the great work!!

The rom is simply perfect, no bugs and stable for daily use... But the v0.26 is much better on battery than v0.27 (1.30/2h more on the same usage) and slightly higher performance (always at 0.26)

Not sure when you installed v0.27, but I noticed the same thing on day 1. On day 2 it seems to be better for me, much like v0.26 was. I have no complaints today with the battery life, but that is just me with my setup. Your mileage could definitely be different.

When will you make this official? Can't wait.

can we get stock zuk z2 plus camera running on nougat in this rom ?

ROMs Comparison - Differences & Reviews

Hey there, I haven't updated my Note II (N7100) in a while so I was wondering what's on the custom ROMs scene these days.
Long story short, I came across a popular few listed below but it doesn't do much to help differentiate one ROM from another. While it's easy to say "give each a try & find out for yourself", I was hoping we can be a bit more objective to describe the functionality of each ROM & what they feature to make them stand out from the rest.
Ideally, I can keep the list updated following your feedback. Please feel free to give me your suggestions to improve it further. Thanks!

Are we able to do that ? I never knew that it was possible to exist a thread like that. Its going to be very helpful, if its going to be continued. I will definitely follow and get informed .
Thank you for creating this.
:good::good:
---------- Post added at 03:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:19 AM ----------
BUT IF WE WANT TO BE FAIR , we must inform that Aicp and Lineage roms have been updated recently
AICP has a daily base update so the last nightly is 11/6/2017
http://dwnld.aicp-rom.com/?device=n7100
Lineage's ROM also have been updatedd 3/6/2017
http://tilak.sergix44.ovh/n7100/
RR is not easy to keep track, as they release a rom and after a while it disappears from their server and an unofficial pops up and so on. I was never able to understand what is happening in that thread and this is very unfortunate since RR is (or was for NOTE 2) one of the most popular roms. It was the first not stock based,custom rom i flashed in my note 2
NucleaROM also has a newer version:
NucleaRom-V1.0.7-OFFICIAL[7.1.2]-n7100-20170525
http://nuclearom.com/download/nuclearom-v1-0-7-official7-1-2-n7100-20170525-1513-zip/?lang=en
and HenonHD , I think is going to surprise us pleasantly , with something even newer from them all
Tomorrow , if its OK, I will write my personal opinion for every one I have tried.

N7100 ROMs Table (Nougat) (updates stopped)
Moved to its own thread (here).

take a look in NucleaROM by @moludo. New built today 13/6/2017 is fantastic, with CM S-PEN support inbuilt.
I think its the top for now.

I don't see why not
You'll notice I've avoided subjective opinions when comparing the ROMs to avoid any kind of bias beyond what each of them offer. A similar [THREAD="3220724"][INDEX] thread[/THREAD] exists for our Note II & most other device forums but it hasn't been updated since the tail-end of last year so I'm aiming to just focus on a detailed "specs sheet" of ROMs.

I'm just keeping track of stable release dates. I'm sure you understand that it gets a bit trickier to keep track of nightly release dates of various ROMs. However, I'll make a note to label ROMs with a nightly release schedule as such.

Thanks for your feedback, @jer194! Just added a "Flaw" column to the table to keep track of significant issues (+ their fixes) that users might want to aware of before committing to install a ROM.
Once again, I'd like to re-iterate to everyone that this is (at least for the time-being) an actively updated thread so your contribution is hugely appreciated for each & every ROM up there. Cheers!

Sorry Guys was all busy with my Sem exams, Hope you all are doing good,
Have so much of notifications to be checked on....
anyway, will see for a week for some new changes in RR, else will release a new stability fix update.
Special thanks to Christoph Schafer for his donation, its not the amount brother, its the appreciation which you shown matters...

The list of flaws for sure is incomplete, the ones in my post are just the ones I'm struggling with
Meanwhile, NucleaROM (170622) and XenonHD (170624) have received updates (see my earlier post).

I think that now that magisk is removed as a default root method and AICP has left us decide what to be used as root, AICP is coming back very strong among the three best for now , together with NucleaRom and HenonHD, which are still at the top three.
Hibin.m , now that he is back, has to give a boost if he intents to keep up, as RR is not what they used to be and what in other phones are still considered as a strong group.
Lineage is always the strong, solid but Spartan rom, which anyone can count on, to test if his phone is working as it should.
Its always the base of them all.
THESE ARE MY PERSONAL FEELING THIS WEEK and no one has to agree with me.

I think its like open season out there, all the kids , now that schools and colleges have finished lessons have come over, looking for things and futures they have left before new years holidays. Amazing how young people dont want to try new things but trying to keep things the way it was a long time ago. A lot of them are even asking how to go back to lolipop or KIT KAT.
TECHNOLOGY is not furniture where old is classic. Here old is outdated and not working anymore, as it cannt keep up new challenges.
Any way, sorry for that, I am mostly talking to my self

Thanks for bumping the thread!
There is no obligation to fix flaws --- everybody is free to do so, if he/she feels like ...
(and there might be more interesting things to do out there).
Anyway, I've updated my two tables I had posted earlier (on N7100 ROMs, and on flaws).

Today i have in my mind this classification about the available roms for our note 2
1. XenonHD 14/7/2017
Everything seems to work just fine in that latest version of the rom
Counting: GPS, video everywhere, video calls in WhatsApp and Viber, built-in from now on. Highly battery friendly. Nova launcher in-built, dark theme option
2. NucleaRom
radioactive kernel of the rom is one of the most effective and customize-able, available now for our phone
also a flawless rom, smooth, fast, battery friendly, with all major functions working perfect.
3. AICP 17/7/2017
very similar with the XenonHD, as they both share sources and DEV
looks slightly slower than the first 2 roms, but its a rom you can also very easy use a a daily driver.
These are my personal and only marks about the roms available right now.
The other roms are still to be update, or be tested since they where absent for a while

Dont you think you have to update threads with the new appeared rom(s),
or you are just waiting for them to mature a little more?

I'm trying to keep my ROM tables updated (see signature); crDroid has been added already.
My device lost some of its sensors, so I'm not able to test thoroughly anymore ...

I know you are doing great job documentary everything. Users haven't yet understand how great and useful is what you are doing. They will appreciate it eventually

so, new entries this week end. You have a lot work to do.
Waiting to see your very useful information
THANKS again for the great job you are doing
:good::good:

So, 2 new entries this week
Lineage's rom (Tilak's) and RR(hibin.m)
Both are updated with new sources and a lot of fixes in both of them.
Lineage's rom comes prerooted, RR provided 2 versions (prerooted and un rooted) for the user to choose.
I installed lineageSU in unrooted RR rom to have a ,as much as possible , equal base to compere the 2 roms.
What i have found out:
Lineage rom, with iSU on it, passes safety net check.
RR rom, can't pass. CTS profile false.
in Lineage rom GPS fixes in device only scan
In RR GPS is not fixing unless in high accuracy (BT WIFI)
In both roms when trying to do a normal voice call using BT mobile network is restarting , so its impossible to make or receive a call.
Only inbuilt camera is working on both roms
Open camera and Snap camera HDR are crashing
Lineage's rom feels more solid but RR is faster in antutu tests, giving you though a sence of a little instability.
Thats what I manage to understand from last night's testing

Thanks for sharing your findings!
I've updated my N7100 ROMs table accordingly.
Just for the RR GPS: it is working in my installation.
The best indicator is in SatStat, 'Satellites':
- if it shows '-/-', GPS is not working
- if it shows '0/0', GPS is working, and is just a matter of patience (and free sky) to get the satellite signals.

yes, you are right.
It took me some more time and a lot of open space, but finally got it FIXED.
Looks like first time takes a little more time when in device only mode
