My sony z3 has gone back to sony for repair, so I got my i9250 out as a spare. It was installed with cm13, but as it hadn't been used for a while I updated to the latest nightly. all was good but the camera kept crashing, so i wiped everything, flashed cm13 and pico g-apps, but when it restarts google play, won't start. (nano is too big apparently??)
So i tried using cm12 and the relevant g-apps and got the same result
then i tried http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-nexus/development/rom-omap4-aosp-project-t3334574 and it just boot loops on the the 7.1 & kk versons
It will install cm13 & 12 and start no problems, but i need all my google contacts and stuff
Any suggestions??

Did you use Gapps Pico...? It's smallest...
Day by day letest changes makes ROM bigger, and then our phone doesn't have enough space for Gapps... That is reason....
While flashing, keep eye on Log of Custom Recovery, starting of flash checks space on device first and gives result, then see if Gapps got flashed or not...
Pico, Pico, Pico!

You can't use anything bigger than pico since Marshmallow (and I don't recommend anything bigger than pico, period). I have never had success with anything nano (the largest I have ever tried - and that was only with CM 13); however, pico has never done me wrong (I moved to Unlegacy Android - currently 7.1.0 - for performance issues that it fixes compared to CM13; yes, for some rather odd reason, Nougat performs better than MM on this device).

That's right Pico is the only option from MM and upper. It's very usefull the performance tip you give about Nougat.
I have installed last MM build from:
builds.unlegacy-android.cf/aosp-6.0/tuna (2017/01/09)
Everything goes well (even GPS), it's fast and reliable. But I have a doubt, should I wait till next Nougat (with GPS functional) or should I stay in MM with everything functional and good performance?
Is N release better in any aspect than MM?, obviously I miss the new improvements in Android N that have developed Google, but I mean general performance and hardware related issues.
I prefer an older Android release, faster and more stable than the newer one with more issues or slower.
Anybody can tell? Thanks in advance!

So far, N has stood that meme on its head (compared to MM, L, KK, and even JB) and it's NOT the first OS for any device to have done so..
It's a meme that dates back to MS-DOS (that's right - it pre-dates Windows of any sort) and it's based on a canard that a newer OS is designed for newer hardware. While it CAN be true, there are reasons why the Galaxy Nexus in particular stands the meme on its head.
1. Basic storage capaciousness. Unlike most devices that succeeded it, the Galaxy Nexus in particular not only does NOT support microSD physically, it also does not lose over half the base storage to its firmware - in fact, PureNexus 7.1.1 - even installed as a pour-over upgrade from Unlegacy AOSP - takes up less than ten percent of the GNex storage space; all of 3 GB at worst. That means that more of the basic storage can be used for ZRAM - the Android equivalent of virtual memory in Linux distributions, Windows, or other modern OSes. More modern phone designs support microSD - which has itself grown in capacity as a storage mechanism; however, you pay a price in loss of first-tier storage capacity - every S-series Samsung phone proves it - how do ANY of them compare to the GNex in non-SD-based storage after firmware loadout? Also, you can't use microSD for ZRAM; if you need ZRAM, you must use free basic storage for it - and most modern Android devices simply don't have it to spare. (It's not just a phone problem; in fact, my Lenovo A7-30F - which supports microSD and is running Lollipop right now - illustrates the point rather painfully, despite being a tablet - it is also a MediaTek big.LITTLE "4+4" design that is hamstrung by the lack of ZRAM. Being able to throw more cores at the problem won't help when the processor is not the biggest problem.)
2. CPU vs. ZRAM - Performance of a given application on a given phone is NOT always determined by processor power; the same is, in fact true on OSes other than Android. Still , what happens merely in Android as ZRAM availability - which IS a secondary function of basic storage capacity - decreases? (This is whether the device supports microSD or not.) Does or does NOT performance decrease as basic storage fills up?
3. Not every app needs more CPU or GPU. Out of everything I've thrown at the PureNexus/GNex combo, only two apps (and one game) explicitly require Marshmallow or better - and in all three cases, they were designed for Marshmallow OR Nougat in the first place.

I'm not responsible for any damage to your device of any sort.
By flashing this you take responsibility of anything that happens.
Process at your own risk!
This firmware was developed for the p905. It doesn't apply to the p905v at this time because it's bootloader locked and a custom recovery isn't possible.
If you want to check firmware - please make backup. Better to store all partitions, at least efs and may be modem.
I'm using nano gapps.
Instructions
1. Install custom recovery
2. Download the zip(s) - firmware and Google Apps additional package (optional)
3. Backup all partitions (it least efs) and store somewhere - it need to do - because you can loose imei
4. Full wipe all
5. Flash firmware and gapps

Thanks
Thanks to LineageOS team
Thanks to davidmueller13 for help with the config and initial run.
@Valera1978: That sounds very interesting. Thank you for your work.
Installed as a test, which went fine. Unfortunate is does not recognize my sim card
I do get the message insert sim card. Removed and reinserted, but still does not see it.
Further testing g to be done.

@Valera1978
Hey my friend, really awesome to see you back with such outstanding rom!
Thank you very much for such amazing work!
I have tested this ROM for a few days.
When starting the device it gives a message system process stopped.
Next error I get insert sim, does not look to be recognized yet.
Further I did not get issues, with the basic programs.
Looks promising
Thank you for all the work on this!

Thanks for the releasing Oreo for the P905. It is sad that there is still no new 12" Note tablet on the market that take it's place. Especially because of that we all appreciate your work so we are not forced to abandon the device.
However I sincerly hope that you continue to release 14.1 versions until this rom is out of alpha. I and presumably others use that version as a daily driver. You skipped september security updates, I presume you couldn't find the time, so I hope for an october release. It is sad that android now needs monthly security updates but it seems it's the way things flow these days.
Kind regards,

I'm sorry, all september worked with a oreo. I do not forget the lineage 14, I did several test builds, and fixed the pressing of the left button with the s-pen (tasks switching). There is yesterday's build - publish it or wait a couple of days and post a september security update?
In any case, I will continue to work with lineage 14, I really do not like consumption in standbye mode, I want to try another kernel. Also, there is still a problem with adjusting the volume during calls.
@Valera1978,
thanks for clarifying that. I think everybody who uses your rom understands that this is a one man show and your time is limited. Regarding publishing, of cause I can't speak for anybody than myself I presume that people would agree to skip the september updates. The october updates are already available and regarding security I think digital, either everything known is patched and you are secure as far as it possible or your are not. I don't think it makes much of a difference if you have more or less vulnerabilites.
One thing that might interest other people in regards of security update is blueborne. I'm curently not sure on which level this must be patched. If it's the driver level than things might get difficult for devices that went out of support. Your last rom 0823 shows vulnerability regarding that bug collection.
Thanks for your continued work on that rom.
Kind regards,
mnemonic-de
Dont know if this is a known bug but after installing this version i have problems playing videos. Both in the facebook app and on websites with integrated video
@Valera1978 are you using the same Lineage 14.1 kernel? The work needs improvements (in the part of the calls mainly) but for an alpha version is very good. Thank you!
Just curious
Is this rom being developed actively or was it more "Proof of concept" right now.
Asking because i have some issues that i could live with for a while, while it is being developed, but as i see no updates i am thinking of going back to 14.1
I don't use sim card therefore wi-fi only. From the remarks it looks like this alpha is working well except for the mobile functionality. I think I will give it a go if the basics of Google calendar and email are working via Wi-Fi.
Early experience :
Issues
- being used wi-fi only
- does not play videos at all. Some apps think they can play videos but don't initiate and stand still at time=0. Others seem to be smarter and give message video can't be played. I tried YouTube, Chrome, VLC, and Plex
- developers rights enabled but missing nifty reboot menu to boot into other options such as recovery. BTW this does work my Los 15 mido phone
- camera not working with any camera app I tried.
The good :
- seems to be faster.
- battery life also seems to be better, although not hugely so
- S-pen is working. Experience in Squid is good which is this tablet's main use
- Oreo's feature set is very nice once you get used to it. Interactive notifications are hard to miss.
- magisk works perfectly.
Could this possibly work for the T900? Being y'all say Wi-Fi works.
For p900 please
Any development for P900
The P900 has a different SoC iirc so you are most likely going to find a version for that in a different thread.
The p900 is officially supported by lineage so you could probably get it directly from the source! Nevermind not released just yet, probably soon though!
I tried the first version, released in September but it was not good because video playback (Facebook, youtube, dailymotion, etc.) was not working.
Has anyone tried the latest version and if you, can you confirm if the video playback works.
I have used this a couple of days now. For the purposes I do use it , all works fine.
Earlier question on video playback, I use vlc and this works.
I am using Galaxy Tab S SM-T700. Just checked and I am on 6.0.1. Would I get more speed/battery efficiency if I were to flash to nougat? I am using this tablet mainly for surfing/navigating/ebooks and watching videos, not so much on gaming. Can someone recommend any good stable release of nougat for me to flash as well? Thanks in advance!
You can give the LineageOS 14 a try now that there is an official T700 version. It's not like you have to lose anything. Just install TWRP, backup your current ROM to SD card and then flash the LineageOS and a gapps zip. If you don't like it, you can always restore the Marshmallow ROM with your data.
I don't have experience with LineageOS on the Tab S (it has ok battery life running 6.0.1, now that I disabled most standby processing unless it's plugged into charger), but the Oneplus One port of LineageOS is fast and good enough to be my daily ROM on that phone. OPO had the same problem since Marshmallow was their final release. If you're running out of storage space, perhaps LineageOS will help because its /system partition on my phone is something like 1.2GB, which is 1GB smaller than the Touchwiz /system on the tablet. On the downside, some ecommerce and streaming apps will stop working on LineageOS. Netflix no longer shows up in the play store but you can download the apk manually while Uverse app stops working flat out.

After a few months with Lineage 14, I just went back to stock MM on my T800. Everything is running smoothly, and unless something really great and stable comes along, I'll probably stay stock with root and TWRP. The only real advantage for me on Lineage was less memory used. By not re-installing loads of apps that I really wasn't using, leaves me with enough memory that will suffice. I use package disabler pro to stop bloat running. I've had this tablet for over 3 years, put in a new battery this year and I'm OK with MM until I retire it.
Sent from my SM-T800 using XDA-Developers Legacy app
linage builds have no fingerprint scanner, if that's important to you.
On most devices aosp/cm is a definate step up, on the tab s maybe not so cut and dried. Devs have to deal with so much crud introduced by Samsung , its a wonder that custom firmware exists for Samsung devices at all, hence there will always be some bugs.
The best in my opinion for this device is a stripped stock MM ( Fenris for me) , which I have been running for a while.
Hello,
I'm thinking about installing some CustomROM last days, but I'm a little bit sceptical about it. Is it worth loosing the warranty? My device is circa 6 months old so I don't want to mess it up to home-unrecoverable state (CEDRIC XT1676, 3/16, DualSIM). What are the biggest advantages and disadvantages of installing CustomROM?
Also, I have some requirements (they're sorted by importance - first one is the most important, the last one is less important)
- it has to be faster and more stable than StockROM - it's the major reason I wanna install CustomROM
- I need Moto Actions (at least double shake to turn on the light) to be working
- I need DualSIM to be working too - if only one SIM would work on DualSIM phone, the phone would lost a part of its potential
- in-built camera app has to be working
- the more AOSP look (interface, launcher, font, animations etc.), the better it is for me
- it should be built on Oreo (8.0/8.1 - doesn't matter) - I think that putting a Nougat CustomROM is a step back these days when a lot of stable CustomROMs for G5 were already released
Is there any ROM that can fit my requirements? Thanks in advance.
Read the rom features and requirements on the first post of the rom thread
This will also include what is or is not working
There is also a thread answering your question about advantages/disadvantages & it was only on page 1 of this Q&A thread so please search before posting
https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5/help/rooting-flashing-advantages-t3781467
I know, I can find working/non-working list in every thread but I want an opinion by someone who changes or was changing ROM more often than socks I mean by someone, who can compare custom with custom (which fit my requirements) and stock with custom (again, with one that fit my requirements).
It's very rare for stock camera to be working on oreo, though footej works just fine.
When it comes to the speed, it depends more on the kernel and what tweaks you have applied rather than the rom itself, though of course, a less bloated rom will always be at least slightly faster.
If you want speed, I recommend installing l speed, you can choose between favouring battery life or performance.
no it's not worth it my moto g5 is hardbricked caz i flashed a stupid 64 bit rom and no one was able to return to stock rom after flashed these 64 bit roms becase if you returned to stock without losing imel like me you will eventually lose imel when you update you stock rom if motorola sends you an ota
so you want a custom rom ; flash a 32 bit one or don't flash one at all
Hi guys I have a sm-t800 and the official rom is old and outdated , what's the best Rom to use to bring some more security and speed to the tablet ? And maybe get rid of all the bloatware from Samsung ? Any recommendations ?
It seems like you don't have a whole lot of choices. There is the stock MM 6.0.1 ROM or LineageOS. In my experience, LineageOS ROMs tended to have more visible bugs and hardware support issues, but then I haven't touched LineageOS ROMs for more than a year. You can certainly try both. The stock ROM has lots of bloatware. While you can't delete a lot of the apps, you can at very least try to disable almost all of the superfluous apps that come with the Samsung ROM. This improves the performance (not just CPU, but also battery) and frees up the valuable storage space.
Thanks Akopps I have installed LineageOS and it's nicer without all the Google spy software and Samsung bloatware, installed Aptoide on it for apps and works ok so far. The only thing that seems to be an issue so far is the fingerprint reader
FP Reader never worked for me satisfactory, regardless what ROM. I would also recommend:
[ROM] [AOSP] [7.1.1] [OFFICIAL] LiquidDeathOS - SM-T800 with deathly adiutor + tools on board, in case you are into tweaking. it is the best combination of function+lightweight in my eyes.
LineageOS has been working well for me on my ST-800

I really like this OS and until last week, I've had no issues. I started getting a flashing red board around my screen and response of my bluetooth keyboard has been slow. I ran the latest update but it is still happening. I'm going to check in with LineageOS to see if there is a fix.
I success to root, install lineage14 and the newest gapps on my 2 old "samsung TAB S" several times.
I can't test the auto-update now due to my lineage is brand new (Feb 2020). If there is any news I will update the document.

What version of LineageOS have you guys installed?
I'm also curious should I try version 14.1 or 17.x?
My 5T will be arriving today (coming from the Moto X Pure Edition...just under 2 years old. Yucky!) and I'm reading about rooting. ADB/oem unlocking/fastboot/etc. are familiar territory for me. I just wanted to make sure of something quick: I saw the guide saying to get Codeworkx TWRP, but I also see TWRP has a dumpling recovery image. I'm kind of thinking regular TWRP is fine, but I'm always careful when unlocking bootloader/custom recovery/rooting. I figured I'd ask just to be sure.
The official TWRP has always had issues with encryption on this device. Basically it's been behind the curve on updates. Last I heard it's gotten better, but it's generally still recommended to use Codeworkx or Blu's version. Personally I'm using Codeworkx.
[RECOVERY][dumpling] TWRP 3.2.3 by codeworkx
Blu seems to be more updated at the moment and has Amoled, and Treble support for 5.1.5.
Not sure if codeworkx has amoled and treble...

twrp-3.2.3-x_blu_spark_v9.85_treble-op5_op5t.img works really nice for me on 5.1.5
Thanks for the replies! :highfive: I went with blu's version and have had no problems. I think I read somewhere (I can't find it agian, obviously...) that for a nandroid backup all screen lock safety has to be removed or encryption will prevent a restore. Would this be accurate? There's a lot of new stuff I'm trying to get used to with my 5T, coming from a closer to stock Android MXPE, especially the world of encryption. I wanted to try out some custom ROMs and wanted to make sure if I didn't like it I could restore to OOS easy. Apologies if there's a guide somewhere on the 5T forums...I've had this for 2 days now. Love it.
Another question about custom ROMs; are they as snappy as OOS? Every other Android phone I've had sacrificed speed for customization with custom ROMs. I miss the closer to stock Android look, but it's no deal breaker. I also really miss the option to make the volume buttons only control media. I tried Gravitybox for Oreo (Magisk + Systemless Xposed), but it wouldn't work.
@Moppusan with experience anything is just as snappy as anything else...
I deblot OOS and run microG on it, then if you know your way around Kernels, you can stick in EX Kernel Manager, or Kernel Adiutor and tweak up the stock kernel and get it smoother, or faster, overclock, get real crazy... RenderZenith seems like a nice kernel for OOS, it's a newer kernel version with newer features that seem to perform over stock.
It seems like, if OnePlus gave us a newer kernel version then we could have some nice newer kernel features in a stock kernel. OOS 5.1.5 is on 4.4.78 So maybe the next release of OOS will see a nicer more up to date version... Maybe some one running the latest beta can tell us what version it's on?
I'm getting ready to put up a guide, hopefully in a few weeks about doing the debloating and microG on OOS.
Remember OOS is a Custom Rom, from OnePlus...
@DoR3M3, well...yeah that is another way to look at it. OOS being a custom ROM.
I'm probably in the intermediate level of Kernel knowledge. I bought the pro/premium/donate/whatever-he-calls-it version of Kernel Adiutor and have read plenty of guides on cpu/gpu governors, hot plugs, over/underclocking, input boost, voltage, storage...governors?, net congestion and blah blah blah. I think the only thing that's really over my head is the tunables for the cpu governors. I've just found settings other people have tested and try it myself.
It would be great seeing such a guide ! Was thinking about a journey into the mirco land but my laziness holds me back :/

OOS is a Custom ROM, the only difference is that OnePlus is a manufacture, and because of Google's licensing, has to include the Gapps. But, I wonder if OnePlus can put up OOS for download on their site, that is GappsFree, now that would be nice!
If you're not running Linux and you are into Android, I highly recommend it. Of course there are things specific to Android, but it comes from Linux and running Linux makes the journey easier.

I've tried Linux many times and I just can't get into it. The biggest drawback is the lack of serious DAWs (Digital Audio Workstations, if you didn't know) and gaming support (I don't think my PC could handle running anything smoothly through Wine).
