Eh. It's still in dev.
There are recovery flashable zips [update using updater app] available, if you flash them, you'll loose data.
I didn't updated mine too, I'm still with 6.0.1, it's the stable one for me.
I don't wanna update to Nougat based Miui as I got my device unlocked earlier today, I'll be flashing Custom Roms. Will ditch Miui. :silly:
I suggest you to just stick with 6.0.1 based Miui rom, it's the stable one, as far as I know, Nougat based Miui Roms are in dev, so once you flash em you'll loose data + it'll be difficult to revert to stable versions.
So stick with 6.0.1, otherwise get your phone unlocked, flash custom ROMs.
Or wait for stable Miui [Nougat based] release.

Thanks for your suggestions i will stick on it. I wanted it because on additional setting / Region there is not listed my Country nor United States. I thought update will solves that.

Oh, not sure about that
Now for real: Which is the most stable "6.0 and up" ROM for the Galaxy Alpha G850F?
I'm sick of it... finding the stock ROM is a pain in the ass and all custom Roms above Lollipop are mostly unusable as daily drivers.
Resurrection Remix and Lineage OS got problems with recognizing phone rotation... youtube gets literally unusable.
Epsil ROM and other Lollipop ROMs got harsh slowdowns after some days that can only be fixed by restarting.
Is there any ROM from Marshmallow upwards that is stable enough to get used as an daily driver?
From my experience, no. There is not even plenty of roms above Marshmallow for this device, only the cyanogenmod/lineage and their RR versions.
i see only stock rom is the best for Galaxy Alpha with all fully feature
Yeah, tried all of the ROMS. Epsil is the most stable atm

Ep rom's more smooth than stock rom but consuming more battery when ide
Stock huh?
The normal firmware of my phone is a ****ing bugfest.
Epsil and Resurrection Remix were nearly perfect, but both got that funny problem that turning the phone won't work after some time.
I don't really care about my phone not recognizing rotation, but I can't stand this pesky bug breaking all sound when somebody calls me as I listen to music. I'm currently trying all of CM/Lineage/RR based ROMs to see if there's any without that problem. If everything fails, I'll either stick to whichever TouchWiz based one with working stock bluetooth equalizer, or go back to full stock/rooted stock.
Hi, and what did you choose as daily driver rom?
Modpunks LOS14.1 is nice but only if camera support wasn't a meme due to changes to how nougat handles camera
I think it's better to try to port an A5 or A7 rom because A7 have same SoC with the alpha

Actually, only the A7 shares the same SoC, the A5 does not.
The A7 also sports the 5.0.2 Android so, there's no point in doing that...
Hello, i am in a DIRE need of 7.0(+) ROM (which has working GSM and GPS) for a friends device.
He absolutely need to play Pokemon GO which was recently updated and the default (5.0.2) ROM is no longer supported. Phone will be used ONLY for that.
Can you give me any hints please? Thanks in advance!
EDIT: Uhm, it seems like there is requirement only for Android 6:

Happy New Year!
I will suggest to try Kyasu Cyanogen 12.1 Rom.
The only problem that he is stop to developing at Lollipop 5.1 for SM-G850F.
Quite pity...
I never really wanted to dig up an old thread, but I was still using a Galaxy Alpha until a few weeks ago.
Just to be clear: there is absolutely NO custom rom (> lollipop) to use, right? You cannot make calls with any "final" "fully working" "best rom". So every real CustomROM is useless, or am I wrong?

I never noticed a problem with the last RR. The camera crashes were easy to solve
As someone who wants to get an old phone to fool around with, the G850W sounds boring as it's yet another 801 phone, but I think the Exynos G850F would be interesting. Is there a good 6.0+ ROM yet as of 2023?
Hey all,
I've just ordered a Le Max 2 from some mob in China. When it arrives in 2021 I hope to install a clean Oreo rom.
The problem is I'm new to all this jazz. I can follow a walkthrough successfully, and without killing the cat etc, but I don't know which walkthrough/guide to follow!
Is there a stock Oreo rom for the Le Max 2? Is 'stock' the right word here? I mean from Android/Google.
If not, is the Lineage rom ok?
I just want a clean phone, no crap installed, higher version of Android the better.
Also, I noticed a firmware page. Do I have to update my firmware first? Or after Rom installs?
thanks all

Hey. Welcome to the group.
There's no stock ROM for Oreo. We only have EUI 5.8/5.9 (Marshmallow). Lineage is okay, but as of now Oreo custom ROMs have bugs. One is low mic volume in calls, another is that you can't use Slow Motion Mode in modded GCam. In a new Oreo Custom ROM (Dirty Unicorn) it has GPS and Fingerprint bug, not sure about low mic volume but the Slow Motion Mode bug is still there (because of OSS HALs)
I suggest you flash Nougat if you want minimal bugs.
I think Marshmallow custom ROMs have no bugs at all (someone confirm) but the security patch is old.
You don't have to be on latest stock ROM, just flash the latest TWRP and start flashing ROMs.
Good luck!

Use google my friend flashing roms and learning about adb and fastboot is quite fun (well for me it is ). It's quite straight forward, you just need to have the proper software and drivers.
Lineage rom is good, it's updated quite frequently and most of the time has minimal bugs. go with nougat as my colleague suggested. Also i think it's ok to stay with just stock firmware Eui is quite nice i guys.
Just remember to backup everything and save it in a safe place before trying something for the first time If you are afraid of doing something and want a quick answer you can PM me, i will try to answer asap

What I can say from my personal experience. First, stock EUi is a crap. Also, abandoned, since LeEco company does not exist anymore. Second, 7.1 or 8.1? I would recommend Lineage 15.1 (Oreo 8.1). It's most stable for me. I found any other rom based on Lineage more buggy than stock Lineage 14.1 is stable too, but why to choose older Android?
Install procedure is pretty easy. You need to unlock bootloader, flash twrp, then flash rom + gapps, that's all.
BTW as you can see, there may be many opinions. But it's not risky to test various custom roms and choose the one that is the best for you. Don't hestitate to try many roms, it's not a pain at all. Actually, it's a fun.
Hi all,
I have unlocked my device and is currently running LineageOS 16 from OpenKirin. There are a few things which does not work, like the camera app that comes with the OS as well as the notch, where icons goes beyond the notch. Someone suggested I try the OpenKirin Rom and that is how I got that specific ROM on my device.
I was wondering are there maybe other ROMS for this device? Like the one's mentioned in the article below?
https://www.getdroidtips.com/best-custom-rom-huawei-p20-lite/
It took me a long while to get everything running on this device, Magisk and EdXposed. So I just don't want to go and wipe my OS just to try 4 ROMS that does not work. Sure you have app backup for that but it would mean doing everything over almost on the device.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Also I am rather new to custom ROMS so please bear with me!

There is nothing like perfect Custom ROM. It is highly dependent upon the requirement of the user and his likes/dislikes. Every ROM has its importance and downsides. You can try flashing multiple ROMs to find the ROM which is suitable and best for you. There is no Custom ROM that is 100% bug free (it depends, among other things, on model, FW built number etc. etc.).
If you don’t prefer EMUI,* choose Havoc OS , AOSP Extended or LineageOS.
If you "hate" Google and Google's bloatware (like me ) only, you can simply rebrand your phone to chinese Nova 3e (among other things, better battery life, lower data consumption etc.)
Or, choose Custom ROM based on Stock with KangVip settings ( to get away from GAPPS) , stable enough to be used as your daily driver.
Availability of custom ROMs for Kirin devices is scarce.

Hi,
No i have not tried one of the recommended in that list i provided. It took me a very long time to get the phone unlocked! Then more bricks, soft and hard through the process :crying:
Magisk was not as hard to install but EdXposed was, and I also got my device stuck on a boot loop trying to get EdXposed to run. So yeah I took me a while to get it working.

If I currently have LineageOS 16 (Aug 2020 ver) can I use the AB partition? I presume so because the Android version currently is 9. I am looking to try HavocOS.

AB or A-only depend on EMUI version : 9.1 = AB, 8.0 = A-only.

Don't bother trying any one of those ROMs listed in that post. I wasted a whole day trying to flash a ROM specified by that website. Look specifically for ROMs on XDA website.
I get more help here, and it has been tested already on our devices.

Hi, my mi10 is currently running global v12.0.6 QJBMIXM stable. I have now started to get an OTA message saying v12.2.1.0 RJBMIXM is ready to d/load.
I have read on here some horror stories about the 12.2 version in general, so my question is: Have Xiaomi sorted the bugs in v12 yet ? or should I just keep clear of this 12.2 version altogether.
I also read on some other sites that Xiaomi are telling users not to d/load 12.2. because its so buggy. If this is the case then why are they still pushing it OTA
I returned to Android 10. The Android 11 version currently has many bugs and many software is not compatible. It is recommended to wait 1 month or 2 before updating.

Thanks,,, thats what I was thinking, I've heard a lot about Xiaomi's Android 11 & none of it good. Its just daft that they're pushing an OTA version with so many Known bugs in it.
As far as I know, there were two versions of 12.2.2 OTA updates - one that was quickly revoked and the second one which is suppose to be fixed. If you mention the problems and bugs, it would be nice to give some precise infor for other users to understand what actually is not working and to decide.
I am personally using a XEU ROM, and am getting ready to move to A11 build, after many users confirmed that it's running fine.
12/20/10 is not good.
The gestures don't work well. After exiting google maps, the gestures generally do not react. You have to put the phone to sleep and wake it up again.
The battery wears out faster.
Any problems with charging when the phone is turned off.
I do not recommend it, it's better to install earlier versions, but application cloning and OK Google do not work in them
Mate, you're talking about a weekly beta build. @markcoopz was asking about last stable build.

Did your 12.2.2.0 OTA say if it was a stable or a stable beta.
My 12.2.1.0 OTA says that its a "Limited release for pilot testers". Thats why I was asking if its worth the hassle. If I ignore this update, will I automatically get the next the next ver. or will the OTA system expect me to install this 1 ist.

I have same rom. No problems.
On android 11 both stock and miuimix version is there a decent twrp for it? I have the one chinese variant from littleturtle that works somewhat and none of the other variants of twrp even boot to twrp on 11 they all go back to fastboot. If you do fastboot boot command you get a black screen. The littleturtle build boots on reboot but not on fastboot boot... does not show data to even be able to mount, will flash both stock and miuimix roms and canary magisk but is quirky.

It says Miui12.2.2.0 Stsble
Have the global edition UMI R was solid as long as I did not try to root it,, TWRP (little turtle edition) was buggy and would flash but was limited on what it would do, had to use canary magisk and it was buggy, LR TWRP would loop if you flashed on R but would boot if you waited a while.. literally have a black screen and think its bricked then it comes up... So I downgraded to Q (used MiFlash) was able to flash working twrp (LR edition) and magisk (latest) then went to miuimix Q also with same TWRP and Magisk. Waiting for development on R as I the workarounds for R for the most part did not work on Miui global R. Would reboot phone sometimes ok others to fastboot. Even with Q some reboots go to fastboot and TWRP is still there and working but it will say no OS installed. Dirty flash over it and it comes back like nothing happened even current magisk persisted. Love the speed and phone until it does this. I did not see a great deal of better features with R over Q to justify continued effort until more development occurs. Still not risking Viper4Android on it, Wavelet does work though and offers some of what is in Viper4Android.
I have the global edition and I am on 12.6.0. Had an ota a few weeks ago and went to download but it comes up not found. Now when I check updates I don't get any new one. I assume they have pulled these updates?
I received 12.2.4 EEA this morning. Seems better than 12.2.1 but fonts don't work anymore
My phone is still on MIUI V12.2.2.0 RJBMIXM, i am facing so many issues in this version, system errors, miui crashs, application crashes, cant share anything between applications, and i have been waiting from beginning of December for a new version to be released, but no luck untill now, i wish if i can downgrade to MIUI 12 A10 based
