Interesting. Since when? afaik all of Markus's roms work fine with dac. including all his pie roms

Poll has evened up with Pixel Experience and Havoc OS getting 3 votes each as well as Lineage just behind with 2 votes.
Anyone have any likes/dislikes they want to share about the rom they are using?

Also really interested in ROMs on this phone. Just ordered a V30+ so haven't tried any yet, or even the stock experience. Haven't used any Android version past 7.1.2 yet. I really want a ROM that allows me to modify the power button functions to show a "reboot" and "reboot to recovery" along with "power off", removing all other options from the boot menu accessed via power button. Also saw the Google Now bar which was, for a while, known as a pain to remove on the Nexus 5 (or was that Android in general?). Hoping it's possible to remove that bar entirely.

Did someone build DU themselves? I don't see DU 9.0 anywhere on these forums. Marcus was told not to release unofficial builds.

Open source is open source. No one -- even ROM group -- has any control over "unofficial" builds somebody wants to make. They're unofficial.
Unofficial is actually better in many instances, because the device maintainer can make whatever changes they wish, and are not restricted by ROM group rules.
@SGCMarkus? I thought you locked the DU thread only until the group released PIE?

The DU guys dont want any releases on XDA, at all. There has been some dramain the past... lets say it that way.
And yes, they have a say in unofficial builds too. But im gonna respect their wishes anyway. The builds are in the V30 Telegram group, or in the V30 Discord server (the later is still WIP).

Unfortunately, the T-Mobile V30 is always the odd one out with these ROMs. So the only one I have been able to use is Lineage 16. But other than the dim Always On Display, I haven't had any issues with it and it works great. I don't feel the need to go back to Oreo now.

Hey, six of one half a dozen of the other. Weird though, since I thought XDA was pretty much the biggest forum for Android development.

Stock apps?
I'm very aware of the fact that AOSP loses features from stock. But audio recording thought the headphone jack sucks now! The default recorder was amazing, and every app I try blows out the mic... I've tried all of them even Field Recorder.
I'm aware my use case is very specific. I use a lavalier mic to record interviews and conversations for videos. Honestly every other app, other than the stock LG one has no dynamic range and turning down gain in settings does nothing.
I'm open to suggestions, it's just a huge bummer that my last 5 projects all suffer from a blown out mic.

Stuff like this is why I'm still on ROOTED stock firmware. I can flash/install mods to give me custom features.
The only thing that really bugs me right now I've not been able to change easily is the status bar icons --- and maybe I just haven't looked hard enough.

If the polling weren't already completed, I would have voted for a third option. It would be either stock or none. I have flirted with all of the pie roms, and they each suffer from similar and fatal flaws like the one you give. Others to add are a functional camera app, propper playback volume, need for se enforcing, and correct set up for mms on Verizon to name a few. I hope this isn't interpreted that the efforts of the devs are not valued. The dev's have made amazing progress in six months or so since wtf was announced. I patiently look forward to the day the scale tips in favor of an aosp rom like what happend with RR om the quark.

Right. The devs are amazing.
@SGCMarkus singlehandedly brought the V30 a half dozen AOSP/Lineage custom ROMs.
It's just for me personally, I've made the decision to stay on stock rooted firmware for now.
As you know, on the Moto Quark I was a BIG proponent of first CM (which is now Lineage) and RR ROMs.

I know this is random considering but Matt have you tried theming status bar icons with substratum? Seems to work on stock for myself.

New roms for honor 5x....

Ok, my question is neither a disrespect to any dev working on the device nor i decline all their hard work which they put in bringing us cm and twrp etc... This is simply a question...
After cm, will devs work on other roms, to port them to our phone e.g aokp or pacman....

Du and broken are both supposed to be coming to the 5x after we get official marshmallow. Those are about the only 2 I care about so IDK about any others. Broken already has lollipop for it but they aren't going to release it to the public until it's upgraded to mm.

Broken os and dirty unicorns... A quick Google Search will tell you all you need to know
I hope some custom roms some through fast, the stock really sucks a** and it's just not Android from UX or it's functions! Such crap OS, hell, can't even use basic root apps effectively (like TB) or install straight forward mods (v4A for ex)....all things either screw up the system or just don't work! The CM build by crpalmer seems to be working for most, but it lack fingerprint support something of a factor that made me buy this phone in the first place

Stock isn't too terrible if you use a different launcher. I have v4a and tibu both running great, Just took a little work. As far as dev names and stuff like that... Come on guys you have all the worlds knowledge at your fingertips use it! I won't spoon feed it to you
I'm would love to have Exodus on this. The aosp beauty like omni... And omni too. These best these days are Exodus and omni
Without the correct sources and binaries i'm not seeing any sort of custom ROMs become stable enough for daily use. Even Lollipop ROMs are currently bug-ridden due to Honor releasing ****ty code.

Yea, thanks for the hint though i love all the tinkering I do, I missed the alternative launcher option! I installed Nova and it's much better than the stock Huawei home launcher.
Also, on the V4A, somehow it refuses to work at times and having an "abnormal" status for the driver. Uninstalled it completely now and flashed the Dolby Atmos, seems like my phone has suddenly come alive when it comes to speaker quality and music on headphones.......way better than what I was getting with V4A.

I was having the same problem with the "abnormal driver", then I got the selinux mode changer app and set it to change it to permissive on every boot... Viola! And yes it is much better with a different launcher. I'm running Google Now launcher and now that we have xposed I'm using xposed gel settings to get it just the way I want

Clarification: Best ROM

Hey, so I've seen a lot of people talking about how good XX ROM is and it's better than YY because of something. Also another problem being the question of best ROM.
I'd like to say something: Everyone has their own thinking and point of view, so something's that's not important to you might be imporrtant to someone else, so making judgements like this is better than that is all dependant from person to person. We all know that no two mind think alike. These types of questions discourage developers so please it's my humble request to not post / compare ROMs calling them bad / good. If you don't like a feature then don't use it. Same goes for the ROM. If you can help improve then you most probably can via github or gerrit as some ROMs provide. With that being said. Thanks​for the time to read this post.
I kind of agree. I much prefer to see descriptions with a list of pros and cons rather than a simple "this ROM is better because I like these aspects"

Going to give it ago again tonight... I week or so ago I tried it and had very odd behaviors. Likely just a bad flash (sounds odd, but it does happen) and went back to Oxygen... is there any differences between the UNOFFICIAL and OFFICIAL builds?
How is it that even a thread specifically made to tell people not to ask questions about which rom is best, turns into a rom advice thread.

Won't make a separate thread for this but I'll ask here - what are 2-4 most popular ROMs for the OP2 going around nowadays? I've been using Exodus ROM for a long time and I really liked it, but the latest update was November 11th and it looks like the developers have moved on. The ROM is fine, and there's really nothing that I'm missing, but there are some stability issues with random reboots and force close and this is the longest I've gone without updating/changing something so I'm looking to try something new. I want to look into a few different options and read others' reviews and look into features and stuff, but it would be great if you guys could narrow down my search to the few most popular/well known/most supported roms that are currently available.

If anyone is interested enough i will start a Thread which the Maintainer gets invited to. So let's Go! :highfive:
This definitely looks interesting, I'd love to see it take off!

Yes, I got a complete refund from o2 for my g5 after it's second repair (GPS u know..) and decided to go for the axon. I truely love this device!
So could the Patch be applied on the B04 Stock? Would be very nice, because we have a lack of custom Stock based Roms here

But Yes, it should work on Stock. BUT YOu need to add Init.d Support if YOu want to use the given Scripts like Battery Calibration and Play Services battery drain Fix.
Another thing are the GApps. The LIGHT PATCH comes with Optimized GApps for 7.1. If You are on 7.1 YOu're good to go. If not, You should pre download a GApp Pack for Your Android Version to install it after the Patch. That should be all. And like always, do clean flashs! lol

I'm still playing around with some things. Ended up doing a complete clean flash of RR, Magisk 13, and this again this morning, so I haven't had too much time to just dive into everything just yet. Just tested sound over speakers though, and it sounds great. Still gotta see how battery fares.
If you opt to let the patch install Gapps, they're very minimal, and you'll end up installing most of them from the Play Store, but that gives you the option to keep whichever ones you want. There are also a ton of lib files, and some add-ons from Sony and HTC that are worth checking out. Will give a more detailed post after I've had more time to mess around.
I'm interested too.
A list with some information of the benefits would still be good.

Glad to hear it runs! Well, there are hundreds of Features and goodies in this Baby. I'm working on Android since almost 7 Years and the Patch is the Product of enhancing custom ROMs to something more than that. Calling it a Mod is like calling a Operation on a Brain slaughtering lol
I will try to explain it a bit.
The Light Patch is the 3rd Version of My Patch System. The Multi Device Support is caused by excluding the Device specific Firmware from the customization which i usually would do with a ROM. The advantages of that are independent OS updates, Multi Device Support, Features which You can't get with AOSP, and it is better to develop than usual Mods or ROMs.
We have planned to create a own AOSP OS and some Apps in the Future which will include the advanced research behind the Patch and everything what i do. It is really hard for Me to describe all that. But i'm going to enhance My Project together with a new Partner and the Light Patch is the first Step on that Way. There will come for sure more Infos, Videos and all possible Things over the Time. And don't run away cause of my English! My Partner speaks a lot better English than Me, so the overall Quality will come over the Time. I'll let him do all the Social stuff here so i can focus on the development (finally). The Main Team is growing and our Maintainers will also get a place in our Org. We will soon have a own Domain with G Suite Service and everything looks bright for our Project.
I hope that wasn't to much bad English for One Post :laugh: Just take a look on My very long Changelog and try the Patch. You will not regret it, it is 100% stable if You follow the given Instructions

I decided to try it out of curiosity, pretty much because I flash a lot, and try to stay open to new things. I'm a tinkerer, and I guess that's just part of my fidgety nature. Lol. But, as there's no official maintainer or posts in the development section for our device yet, and English isn't the developers first language, it seems that either flashing or waiting for response from people that have are the best way to get information for now. But if you download the zip and browse through it, there are a lot of things there that should theoretically add to the user experience.

[BOUNTY] AOSP Roms for Note8

Good news everyone!
A really awesome Developer @SaschaNes who has a lot of knowledge with making AOSP device trees etc, wants to help us with getting Official/Our own builds of Lineage and RR and other awesome AOSP roms. The only problem is that he doesn't have Note8 yet so he can't try/debug his builds. Currently I can help him, but if he had his own device, everything would happen A LOT faster. So if You could donate some money to him, it would help a lot. If he gets the device, by Christmas we might have a daily driver of Lineage 15 and other AOSP roms.
What AOSP roms could give us? Freedom! We could get new Android versions faster, and obviously pure AOSP roms that don't have Samsung Experience theming for those who don't like it. Pure Android also allows us to get more stuff to work on Note8 like Xposed or Substratum.

It's been a while since I was messing around with this stuff but as I recall, didn't ASOP Roms kill a lot of S-Pen functions? Or other stuff that TW-Based Roms can only do?

They do. But some people like AOSP. And having more roms is awesome. This way You can switch between different UIs every week or two. Plus You get Substratum themes and all Xposed modules. Aaand faster Android updates. Some people would like to have a Note8 and Pixel 2XL. But they can't buy them both. So they buy Note8 and this way they can still enjoy AOSP .
The only Samsung appstore I really use are the camera and translate with the s-pen. Other than that I use google and blackberry's android apps. Would all spend functions be lost? Like pressure sensitivity and the little circle that appears when I press the button to start using translate or quickly open apps?
I literally have ever other Samsung service disabled with bkdisabler. Stock android with the latest security patches and updates would be great.
How would updates work anyways. Would we ge then straight from google or do we have to flash a new room or every update?

If the rom would be stable enough we would get OTA's from Lineage. Or RR.

The only real downside to flashing AOSP roms is that you lose ALL Samsung Functionality. I am pretty sure the SPEN loses all the cool functionality - Live Write among others, and you lose the Samsung CAMERA for sure. there are other camera apks you can run of course, but not the SAMSUNG camera - which is one of the major things I like most about the NOTE - that and the SPEN of course.
Don't get me wrong - running AOSP roms have it's advantages but there is definately a trade off.

Some people think the Pixel camera port is better than stock anyway. That would run fine on an ASOP ROM, right?

Yeah, I'm already on it to fix it. Like 2-3 weeks I would say we could have a stable Nougat Build for Note 8
Sent from my Galaxy S7 Edge using XDA Labs
Hi.
Is there any update on the ROM for the Note 8.
We are talking about the N950-F?
I need the ROM to be able to run Native SBS...
Isn't working on my Note with stock ROM, TWRP and su installed. It requires a CM12 or ASOP ROM.

Good news everyone!
A really awesome Developer @SaschaNes who has a lot of knowledge with making AOSP device trees etc, wants to help us with getting Official/Our own builds of Lineage and RR and other awesome AOSP roms. The only problem is that he doesn't have Note8 yet so he can't try/debug his builds. Currently I can help him, but if he had his own device, everything would happen A LOT faster. So if You could donate some money to him, it would help a lot. If he gets the device, by Christmas we might have a daily driver of Lineage 15 and other AOSP roms.
What AOSP roms could give us? Freedom! We could get new Android versions faster, and obviously pure AOSP roms that don't have Samsung Experience theming for those who don't like it. Pure Android also allows us to get more stuff to work on Note8 like Xposed or Substratum.

Android P for RN3?

So Android P rolled out, and I was wondering, we've been blessed with devs work and got every great update and tons of rom for this device. And was wondering is there by any chance getting Android P based roms in future. Also I was specially wondering about RR, because I like that a rom alot.
Well will we be getting android P, or I shouldn't get my hopes up?
Just wait patiently. The sources are available, just wait until a dev cooks a build for kenzo. Or when proper GSIs will be available.
Sure thing buddy, by any chance you also want VoLTE and 10 hours SOT?
Nobody maintains Kenzo for income, just because they feel like sparing time, for crying out loud it was just formally announced today, so if you want P go ahead and build it on your own.
Just stop this kind of threads, they are just spam.

Could like please take your hate and get the hell out of this thread.
Like seriously, I'm just genuinely asking a question, so its not a spam, and I asked BECAUSE P came out today. If you don't wanna answer just ignore this, not a hard thing to do.

Sorry, the devs need income and now the devs like @rocknegi have started p**n for ₹50/day or ₹200/month cause the users aren't donating enough money.
If they get enough income from p**n selling, they will develop Android P for you.

I know but just use some sense? We are not devs, we are normal users like you. How do we all users know if a dev can develop Android P. Plus, do you think a dev will announce 'Hey Niggas, I'll develop Android P rom for you all niggas asking for it, wait for few hours:. No?
The dev need to look into the source, need time to see what all bugs needs to be fixed, else users like you will come here and say it's buggy, that doesn't work, this doesn't work right?
Another sensible answer: Android P sources are just released. It's not like magic to develop rom directly from the source. Needs a lot of hack, back port blobs and things we don't even understand.
Summary: it's a redundant question as of now. Please wait, if there's a Android P rom, you will see it here. Till than, enjoy other roms.

As a user of redmi note 3 . i just hope dev make android p for this device.
As one of the lineage 15.1 maker for Redmi Note 3, yep, we will do bringup after 9.0 source code release, and should be easier than Oreo, as Pie impacted a lot of backport comparable, please don't ask lots of annoying OTA, follow XDA rule, P will be coming to Kenzo/Kate after sometimes, but for Treble is more harder as blobs are old, we need to wait hydrogen and suzu devices etc updates for new blobs, for more Treble working, and even CAF for msm8952 board not impacted treble, unlike msm8953 board, so treble now is experimental and don't expect stable treble in a short time.
---------- Post added at 03:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:56 PM ----------
And for my lineage 15.1 long time no updates because I teams with @Carlos Arriaga, and he is back in July so I and other team members need to do some updates, my 15.1 new build will release soon

Thanks for this reply. Won't be asking for annoying updates, just wanted to know that is all.
Well, speaking of Android Pie development, I've found a Pixel Experience ROM that is based on Android Pie through a Telegram channel
Known broken features:
• Bluetooth
• VoLTE
• Stock camera app, but the camera works for stills and video (Open Camera)

NOTA BENE: Try it at your own risk, as it is not developed by me, but if you want to download it and try it, here's the link: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1KqyUEdUgtW5coyoTlHuuN0Y2Jt1aKnn-
Yep. I've been using the Pixel Experience 9.0 from @thestrechh as my daily driver for a couple days now.
It's usable if you can get by without VoLTE and Bluetooth.
Gcam works, but can't change the settings and it crashes a lot. Front and back camera stills and video all working.
The rom feels pretty buggy and a bit sluggish to me. CPU operations seem to take an unusually long time. Maybe all the cores are not being utilized optimally. (Don't know. I haven't actually tested.)
I'm sure this rom will continue to get better and better in the coming days. I'm anxious to dirty flash the coming updates.
Excellent work by @thestrechh.

I've not noticed sluggish performance here, but I have noticed bugs here and there, which is par for the course, considering the infantile state of Android Pie development.
Still though, for an early release, it works almost excellently

I decided to do a benchmark with antutu. The score seems fine. Guess I must be mistaken.
