I just ordered mine but I hate MIUI. I would need to reflash right away. What is the most reliable, closest to pure Android ROM?
Closest to pure android is definitely AndyYan's LineageOS. I am running it for a while now and battery life is still pretty good, no bugs so far. Only thing that doesn't work in all custom roms is VoLTE.
I love Epic ROM with AOSP notifications.
The global Oreo beta is great despite being MIUI. And I'm a pure Android kind of guy.
Oreo beta is by far the best.

Yeah miui 9.2 or something. It's just the most stable everything works and has stock aosp type notifications. I've tried all custom ROMs and stock miui has everything working. In the future that may change.
Oreo with nova launcher

when updating to miui 9 from miui 8, do i lose everything?
So, crap. I solely bought this phone to have AOSP on it, but it seems I will be back to crappy MIUI.

The mi mix forum is a mess, all the 8.1 roms are in comments of the LOS15 thread in the guides, news, discussion section. None are officially released yet by the dev

MIUI 9 beta with a custom launcher is pretty close to the experience of most custom ROMs. Just install ADW or Nova and it should be fine.

I need AOSP notifications instead of ridiculous miui ones. I need to be able to restore my apps from Google cloud or titanium backup. None of this and more does not work in miui. Resemblance to Apple makes me sick.

Lol 14.1 Linaege works great, while Oreo seams to be almost stable, nothing to complain about. We should thanks devs that they still care about abonded device.

True. Camera/video haunts most of the devices using custom ROMs. But using footej helps. So not much of an issue. Once you start using Oreo, forget stock you will never come back to 7.1 even!
Indeed, Oreo rom works great with FP gestures even though its unofficial. Some rumors is that the 15.1 LOS Oreo rom is going official so development is not dead. Go to some stable oreo roms instead of stock and wait and see if P roms will be available for P2 (it most certainly wont)

I would just add to your comment that Android P will be officially released at the earliest in August.
It is not at all certain that someone will develop a custom Rom based on Android P for our Lenovo P2.
If "Yes" I think You don't expect to have it available before the end of this year.
So, I finally changed to Oreo, since FP gestures are also available. XenonHD is awesome.
Video recording bug is solved through adding
media.camera.ts.monotonic=0
TO build.prop file.
It is sometimes a bit buggy when using whatsapp built-in videocamera app but normal camera apps work just fine. Snap Camera is my favorite by the way.

Is is stable on mine aex the best Oreo Rom I've ever seen only problem is fp gestures who I don't care about I don't use them
Hey guys !! First of all taking so early about Android P is useless cause Google has released only 2nd beta. Now there will be 3rd beta and then the final update with source codes. Without source codes nobody is able to build a custom rom. Google releases the codes only with the final update. Secondly shubam the well known dev said that they have put there hard earned money in P2 so as long as there P2 is good and running we will get updates. We can even expect Android Q.:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

Playing with GSIs is just too unstable for every device, sometimes its like treble has its own mind. I use a lot of devices, with different UIs, stock Android is unrooted boring (the painfull thruth, but so is One UI for me), MIUI is cluttered for my taste. With to much pathways you can go, it gets harder to choose
I'm not sure where to post this but I'm still on samfail 7.1 rooted. Question is can I update to oreo or pie and gain root? I seen something about V5 and V6 bootloader can be rooted but not sure if that was for our snapdragon version and if I can just do maybe an update through odin? I'm missing xposed ugh...

It is my understanding that you can root the v5 and v6 booatloaders. However, the process of rooting is limited to Android 7.1. So, in essence of your wanted root and you were in v5 or v6 you would have to install Android 7.1 through the pseudo TWRP available to those of us on the Snapdragon version and not really gain anything new. There is no root for Android 8/9 at this time. Because we cannot unlock the bootloader, we are limited to root on Android 7.1 at this time regardless of your bootloader.

I wouldnt fret too much, as PIE is pretty good, after much thinking about what apps really require root on a daily basis the upgrade was worth it as i get better battery life and not need any processor/kernel mods.
stability is awesome no more daily crashes
PIE theme / launcher is pretty nice, and you can always mod the launcher out or just install a different one and mod that one as if it were rooted.
just a thought if you were panicking like i was about leaving root for stock life, its not as bad as it seems on PIE i still have the feeling im going to need root but havnt had the need for it.
So after testing AOSP extended, LineageOS17, Havoc OS and even DerpFest OS, I think moto z2 (albus) doesn't do great with GSI for android 10. There always was something off and the stability was far from one you expect from a gsi. I used KVT 2.3 aroma to boot. However, there are other devs releasing unofficial GSI roms as well which I haven't tested. Like ExPressLukeGSI or Trisquel collection which probably has a special thing for albus. So I am posting this expecting replies from anyone showing love to z2 play, If you know something then tell me. If you want to test the GSIs and can't find links, ask me.
i would to try gsi but i use daily mt phone and i need to something stable at now mokee is working ok but i had a issue with calls. i never try this treble roms xd

Mokee Q or Pie? This ROM are stable?
does anyone know if they are developing a gsi or normal Android 10 ROM for Moto Z2 Albus because I have been waiting for it for a long time and I would like to ask that please continue supporting this team please
@Euiz702 GSI is not specific for some device. You can use almost any GSI on Z2 Play already now

What kind of problems did you have? I'm testing phusson's plain AOSP and so far works good. Scrolling and some apps, especially Google maps run smoother than on stock Pie. I'm using modded Google Camera 6 (shared in Apps&Mods forum), it works good, just HDR+ can't be turned off and it tends to improve reality too much. I just didn't manage to install Magisk yet.
I also wanted to try Trisquels's gsi-albus stuff, but SourceForge has been working badly recently and I wasn't able to download anything

If you want a rom with good battery life, try DescendantOS x (10). Havoc is good, but not for battery life.

I don't know and I already left. But before, my battery usually lasted for one day, now maybe half maybe a bit more.
I tried DescendantX, but it seemed a bit undone with something in status bar. But maybe I try it once more.
I also tried GSIs from gsi-albus project on SourceForge and they seem good, but they have always navigation bar on and fingerprint gestures off (doesn't matter what you select in kvt installer). So I wander whether they are really built with Albums in mind...
Can someone here help me decide whether to take the plunge or not into flashing a custom ROM on my daily driver Z2 Play, by clarifying some of my doubts.
1) Whether the Moto experiences like Moto Actions and Moto Display will be available when using custom ROMs and GSIs?
2) Will it be possible to return to stock ROM after flashing a 64bit Treble based ROM?
3) Also what is the best, most stable Android 9 or 10 based ROMs for Moto Z2 Play?

There are no stable Pie or Q ROMs for Z2 Play unfortunately. Only GSI ones that are all more or less bugged and it seems like no developer is interested in this phone anymore. For stable ROMs you can choose only from 8.1 ones which are all quite outdated at this point as well. Anyway I use unofficial LineageOS 15.1 as daily driver for like 1,5 year now and have no complaints, it's absolutely rock solid and latest release has February 2020 security patches. Moto actions, Moto display (kinda, it's different than stock) and fingerprint gestures works.
But honestly I don't think there is much point in flashing custom rom now, especially if you have stock 9.0.
Pixel experience plus on Albus
I have flashed the Pixel Experience Plus Android 10 GSI on Albus by using the latest KVT 2.4 and it works like charm.
There are no major bugs, everything is working fine like basic functions and performance is awesome.
Only ambient display is not working, other than that almost everything is working fine and this GSI can be used as daily driver.
And magisk is also working.
Did anyone tried to install Erfan's Oxygen OS GSI on Albus???

Good to hear that pixel experience is working for you. I am based in india and none of gsi seem to provide volte functionality. Can you confirm that the rom you have tried is working with volte? Please provide the source of the pixel experience gsi you have tried. i have tried Erfans gsi, its same volte doesn't work. Thanks
