got a fresh V500, which Android to install? - G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just got an unused v500 . What should I do, leave it with Android 4? Or install ASOP 7.1? Whats best for normal usage? Is it fast enough for the newest Android version? Any disadvantages?

I have v500 since past two years, so far AOSP 7.1 and LineageOS official latest nightly are the best , though I prefer Lineage since AOSP 7.1 has some performance issues.

Thanks I give the Lineage thingy a try then.

Cm 13 on the note 2

I see that they just started nightlife for the marshmallow version of cm. I currently am using the latest stable release of cm for lollipop. I own the Nexus 6p and love 6.1 so I want to give my old n2 some love. Has anyone flashed the newest nightly on this phone? Is it stable? Also is there anything besides the usual full wipe that needs to be done in order for it to work?

Android 7.0 ROMs Question

So there are a bunch of 7.0 ROMs based off of CM14 right now. Since there is currently no OOS based off of 7.0, does that mean that we won't get "stable" 7.0 ROMs until OnePlus releases OOS based off of 7.0? Or does it not matter?
I have been itching to try out Nougat but there are so many to choose from. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I mainly care about stability and of course battery life. However the lack of xposed is also keeping me attached to 6.0 right now
I've tried AOKP, AICP, AOSP Tesla and also CM14.
Battery life is best on CM14.
Battery on other N ROMs perform alike.
Performance wise every N ROM is much faster than MM. But if that's my main concern, I'd again go for CM14.
Right now I'm on AOKP as I feel it gives better camera quality.

Are 6.0 Roms better for performance or 7.0 Roms?

So the T-mobile stock rom is stuck in 4.4 as we all know and I wanted to know if another rom would make it faster or slower? Which would be the best rom for performance and what OS 6.0, 7.0, or 5.0 is generally better. Also, battery life is a concern
Similar concern, how are last builds of cm 13? I know 7.0 is in flux with transition to lineageos. But I'm about to pull the trigger on a used s4 to be my new daily driver. It's the most compact GSM phone with relatively modern specs and good custom ROM support
Any input greatly appreciated
The last build of CM is rather stable and has proved to be the most reliable for daily use. AlaskaLinuxUser seems to be the only remaining active dev for the M919. He recently mentioned that he will continue to support the (currently 7.1.1) AOKP rom, which for the time being is the only actively maintained Android N rom for our obscure variant of the S4. It is rather stable but there are a few quirks. If we are lucky, an official Lineage 14 build will be made available soon. I wouldn't count on it though!

im getting random reboots on aokp, what is the best aosp rom for s4 rn? (nougat or otherwise?)
Same here, I've had several issues with 7.x.x roms and rather dreadful battery life. I would recommend the final build of CM 13 as a stable OS until some milestones are met.

LOS 16 Firmware?

Hi,
I'm currently using the latest nightly build for Lineage OS 16 and the OOS 5.0.8 firmware (latest stable i could find)
My wifi performance is allot worse than in OOS and i have a feeling my reception is as well. (1/3th of the speed in OOS)
although usable, i think i need another firmware+modem.
The open beta's seem older (version 3? something) is this correct?
Is my best bet to wait for Android Pie update from Oneplus to get a better firmware/modem ?
thanks

Practically all of them are stable and bug free.
I advise you Ressurection remix (last build), if you wish to customize your phone. Or Pixel Experience if you want a rom with a stock look.
LineageOS, as you can lock the boot loader and receive flawless OTAs.
