Hello, my girlfriend owns a G3 and I would like to flash get a better ROM and kernel.
Her device runs stock marshmallow and it is locked. What's the best ROM for her right now (battery+performance) and how complicated it is to root and unlock her phone (previous phones are xiaomi mi6 and Nexus 6p, I have experience in rooting and flashing)

Hey guys I have a few questions regarding to this phone.
1. Is there any stable pure kitkat rom for the s920? Like CM11 or AOSP?
2. What's the difference between ROW and CN? And if it's posibble how do I check?
3. How can I root and install TWRP recovery
4. Does rooting and flashing roms void warranty?
I've been using this phone for about 2 months and I'm satisfied with it except the Lenovo UI. I like pure kitkat experience and hopefully there is a rom that would help me get that. I've tried Google Now Launcher but it doesnt fill my needs.
Thank you for your help,
Alysha.
I have an offer through Kijiji to buy the Rogers LG G3 (D852). I am currently an owner of a Nexus 5. A lot of things about the G3 are very tempting for me especially in regards to camera and screen size with small bezels. However I also like trying out what third party development has to offer. After going through these forums most of what I see is simply for D855 and D850. So, a couple of questions:
1. Rooting and "unlocking" bootloader: Is Purpledrake compatible with the d852 and can the d852 be "bumped" to have TWRP?
2. Lollipop: I'm aware that LG G3 now has Lollipop but are any builds compatible with the d852?
3. "Stock Android": By this I mean "not LG's skin", is there any way to get stock android or anything similar (CM12/PA/etc.) onto the the LG G3? I plan to use LG's firmware for the most part but the option to load an AOSP rom would be nice.
4. Backwards compatibility with AT&T model: Would ROMs that are available for the D850 work with the D852 since both are similar hardware?
5. Debloating: After rooting, can the phone be debloated to increase performance? I'm assuming LG has added a fair share of bloated software onto the stock ROM.
I really want to own this phone (the Nexus 5 just has HORRENDOUS battery life and camera for me) but the only thing pushing me away is the lack of development, if these questions can be answered and I can at least be provided with some hope for the future I will definitely consider buying the G3, thank you for any help in advance!
1. You can root it with Stump root
2. At the moment no.
3. There is CM12 but for D855. Carbon and Mahdi are also for D855. For D852 there is no AOSP rom.
4. No, it is not compatible.
5. Of course it can.
My D852 is rooted with Purpledrake and also BUMPED with TWRP recovery.
In the General section, read the Canadian Users thread and there are some converted D855 ROMS for D852.
ROMS are slowly but surely gaining traction. [I think there's a bit of a pause now as devs have moved from KK roms and now working on Lollipop ROMS]
Hello guys,
We are all excitied about this device and i myself am planning to buy it..But before buying i have some doubts that i want to get cleared ..
My first question is how do we root our asus zenfone 2? Is there any app/software available so that we can root it...I am aware that there is a Pre-rooted System.img available but is there any other method we can get root on our device??
Second question....How do we do a complete backup of our device? What if our device got bricked or we just wanted to flash our stock rom again...Is backup of rom necessary or we can just flash the stock rom provided by Asus website using ADB?
I am sorry to ask such questions....but i am new to asus zenfone and intel architecture.... I am currently using MTK device so am used to do a rom backup using MTKdroid Tools... I just want to know a method to un-brick my device in case sumthing happens....thank u guys
Hello
I also want to buy the ZP2 , because I have a OnePlus one but it missing one important 4g frequency on it...
I really love the style of this asus, I love hardware and the price, but I always used nexus phones because I can't imagine to buy an Android phone without flashing it and playing with kernel...
I hate CM too but want aosp/aokp rom. I am worried by seeing dev forum empty for the ZP2... It's just because he is ultra new our dev don't love Intel processors ?
First let me say that I am brand spanking new to these forums. I've some experience rooting before, but it has been years... Last phone I had rooted was the HTC Evo 3D (I still have that cool sonfa) which was years ago. Been out of the loop as far as things go. I decided to mess around with my old Note 4 (it's really not that old, I love this beast), so here I am. I've unlocked the bootloader and confirmed that it's rooted via root checker, but it's still in the stock 5.0.1 firmware... BORING... So I want to install a custom ROM and debloat this thing... I do have some general questions.
1) Any links to safely upgrading my note4 from 5.0.1 to 5.1.1 ? (not even sure if this is necessary, you'll see what I'm getting at later in this post)
2) Bootloader is unlocked, phone is rooted, that's it... Do I need to flash a new kernel before trying to flash a custom ROM? Again, are they version specific as to what android I'm using?
3) ROM's and Firmware... I see ROM's listed here that have 6.0.1 next to them, does that mean that I need Android 6.0.1 to install this ROM?
Example: [ROM] [6.0.1] [UNOFFICIAL] CyanogenMod 13.0 [Jul 24, 2016]
That's basically all my Q's, thanks again for any help/guidance I can get here.
Just wondering, coming from a rooted, unlocked bl, custom rom Z5P.
