LOS 17 for Swift 2/Plus/X? - Wileyfox Swift 2 Questions & Answers

What about Lineageos 17 for our device? I saw a working ROM for Swift some time ago. But nothing for Swift 2.

There is CrDroid 6 by nikkith but very unstable for know. Ghost is working on Q kernel also.

Work in progress, stay tuned.

Resurrection remix vs lineage os

What are your opinions on resurrection remix vs lineage is at their current and future stages? I just received my mido from China and I would like to install a custom rom into it. I'm torn between lineage and resurrection. What makes lineage better than resurrection, as RR has much better customisation but I'm concerned about updates. Which is better in you opinion?
I'm looking for stability over customisations.
I had been using Cyanogenmod/Lineage on a Samsung S3 Mini and my current Moto G 4G. I found them to be similar in terms of stability and never encountered any deal-breaking bugs on both operating systems. Back when I started using Custom OSes on the little Samsung, I installed every single ROM update as soon as I could. That has changed, and I update every 1-3 months if there are no major issues. I prefer Resurrection Remix because of its better customization options and when my Redmi Note 4 arrives in what I hope to be 2 weeks' time, I'll install RR on that one as well.
On my RN3P ive been using RR for a long time. First marshmallow release and now the nougat release. What I experienced there is a faster bug fixing (camera nougat patch has been included way faster in official builds then on lineage) and a very active community on XDA.
Flashed my Mido yesterday with RR and I'm pretty happy with it. Camera shutter has a delay and video recording is kinda slow but beside of that everything works out of the box for me. I tried lineage several times but I miss so many functions which are only available on RR...
Is lineage updated more regularly? As there have barely been updates for RR since it's release for mido

Both will get updates, as dev said LineageOS going to be official once the kernel sources gets released, you know about RR, it's already Official.
rr is more flexible and complicated while lineage is stable
I installed today LineageOS latest version and now I find it has something missing like "no blue filtering" mode. In addition, After installing even today I got a pop saying to install latest update and went for this too but don't know why the downloading gets stopped suddenly after sometime. I noticed this to happen more than 5 time. Now I give up updating and considering to move to Remix.
I recommend RR
I used both of them. But I feel RR is more customizable, flexible, complicated & stable. I recommend to flash RR who want to mess up with all UI.
Came across this, thought I'd share my views. I bought this phone 2 days ago and am waiting for the bootloader to unlock thereafter once I'm done playing with the stock ROM, will promptly Install CrDroid.
I've had CrDroid on my Honor 5x & HTC one m8, never encountered any issues and found it to be very stable with all features working.
If I recall it's derived of both Lineage + RR and that's evident through the customisation it offers + stability - maybe you can give that a try?

Best Custom Rom For Redmi note 4? [Dec Update 17]

Guys I am on miui 9 but I want to swap to a custom rom. So which will be the best custom rom for the device (Indian Variant) till the date (Dec 17)? Testers and devs please reply. I hope this will be a useful for new users too on XDA.
There are tons of Roms to choose from...
Currently I'm on LineageOS 15 unofficial build by @abhishek987, this just Rocks.
About nougat Roms? Yeah, there are already bunch of Nougat Roms.
Bugs?
NOMMUCH, but the flash color is yellow (just an FYI)
I think Oreo is not ready just yet.. I am on RR and I enjoy it a lot! Alexey provides unofficial build frequently, and they have absolutely no problem. Everything is great, and if you need customization, it is the way to go. If you want a near stock experience go for LineageOS, 14.1 or 15, tor choice.
I would like a LineageOS based rom. Then What will be your suggestions on L14 Based stable rom? And I am recently following your Index of The device. Thanx in adv mate @sachin n
Yeah I am a Big fan of RR. Is the RR 5.8.5 stable? Cause i saw on the thread saying that It is Final but status is still Testing So If you can suggest me any stable nougat version of RR with link then that will be so much helpful and bugs in short if there any. Thnx you man in adv. @ToRt1sher
Ii has been incredibly stable for me. I think 0 crash/ random restart since day 1! I am on the unofficial build, which does not have a dedicated thread. But half the post on that thread refer to the unofficial one. The only bad thing is that there are 2 different builds, each with different LED notification driver. If it doesn't behave properly you will have to flash the other one, but that's like, a ten minute business.
Is this the Rom's link you are talking about?
https://sourceforge.net/projects/resurrectionremix/files/mido/
Please confirm if. If it is not then kindly share the link @ToRt1sher
@sachin n which kernel do you use with Linos 15 , stock or somthing else
Stock only
I recommand los 14.1 It's very stable, lightweight and you can root it without losing ota function...everything is fine!
This is the official. It is certainly very good, but outdated by 2 months. Alexey just made a final build a few days ago..
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=673791459329064493
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=817906626617949855
These are the 2 builds, with different LED drivers. Try them out, pick the one that works with your specific device.
Crdroid and resurrection remix
All the ROMS are crap here.... some form of bugs are present.. If you want to live with it, use them. If you are going to use BHIM for online transactions then rooted phones are not supported. Better to use official MIUI rom which has most of the features.
@viewedit Did you try magisk hide or root cloak (xposed) to use bhim? works on my slim rom?

[ROM] Resurrection Remix 5.8.5 | Nougat 7.1.2 Unofficial Build for Kinzie !

Resurrection Remix (RR-N-v5.8.5) !
This is my second rom I'll be compiling more soon! As I promised that I'll be compiling it soon, it's ready now ! It's running on 7.1.2 Nougat on Dec 5, 2017 security patch.
If anyone can help me to build oreo vendor tree then it'll be awesome A friend made oreo device tree and kernel! So, it's time to bring some Oreo roms for Kinzie
What's Working?
Wifi
Camera
Bluetooth
NFC
All major stuffs!

Hey sweetie! Lot of thanks,you are trying to make oreo rom! Good work.
Thank you @Sweetie for letting us know that your friend has made the Oreo device tree and kernel!
Looking forward to your Oreo ROM!
Can't wait to run it on my Kinzie XT1580!
great job ,waiting for oreo rom
Works great! Android 8.1 based resurrection remix would be amazing though.
Awesome rom, bro!
I'm using it as my daily driver! Just need to get used to the different gestures cuz I used to shake/wave a lot my xt1580 for torch and camera. and the sim card is worling smoothly in my reteu variant!
greet job bro, thanks for your rom!
Everythng works fine
Been running this rom for some time now, and haven't noticed ANY issue yet. Just wanted to share some screenshots.
Battery life is also great. At least as much as jwchen's LineageOS build.
No Moto Display.It's a pity.
The others are very funny and excellent.
I'm writing this post because I'm impressed with this Resurrection Remix 5.8.5 Nougat ROM for our Kinzie and it is really feature packed and really stable too! I don't know why but this ROM is so much smoother and less buggier as compared to the jwchen119's LineageOS. (Although I miss (a lot) the double twist for camera and chop chop for flashlight! )
Downside of this ROM is just the battery life. Everything else is better. Good enough as a daily driver. But you might need to find a power outlet frequently!
I only sometimes get audio statics from PowerAMP as I experienced a lot in the other ROM.
I have Magisk, Xposed and Substratum installed. Performance is good.
- Haven't test sim card cuz' currently this phone still my secondary device (unless the battery life can be improved! SOT 2.1 Hrs with heavy camera use, SOT 2.9 hours for normal usage.)
- Yet to test gaming performance because Kinzie battery life is really bad already.
@Sweetie!
Saw you updated the first post on this thread with " A friend made oreo device tree and kernel! So, it's time to bring some Oreo roms for Kinzie"! Can't wait to see Oreo Resurrection Remix for Kinzie! Or maybe ROMs (either battery priority, performance priority or both )
I am really thankful of you making so many great ROMs for Moto X Force users! Or else this device might only have 1 third party ROM to survive with! Now we've plenty of it! Thanks for extending the "lifespan" of our kinzie! Appreciate much! :victory:

I can give you oreo rom to use right now, but have few major bugs like Camera and Audio is not working at all. All credits goes to Jwchen119 <3 for his tree!
If some devs can help us in solving bugs then it'll be awesome.

I would really want to use your Oreo ROMs but not at the moment as I need to use the phone camera a lot right now (that's the reason I flash custom ROM cuz' the stock ROM camera was very slow when phone heats up!)
Please keep us posted with your new ROM! :good:
Hello Sweetie,
Thanks a lot for you job. Have you got some news for the oreo rom for kinzie ?
Bye
Hate to bump a somewhat old thread, but I just purchased one of these devices(off eBay for cheap, and ill know more when it arrives) and was wondering if you guys got the bugs on 8.0 dealt with yet, and if anyone can point me to a root method that works the best for this device??? I also want to know, are the heating up issues fixed in the android 7 custom rom, and if not, is there something I can do, like adding thermal paste or something, that will prevent heating up so much???
**edit** I bought the Turbo 2 which seems to not be able to unlock, but again, I'll know more when I get it... Hope I can use it on straight talk, or Visible Wireless...

sadly. is there any other way to keep phone safe?
Kenzo/Kate ROMs that support hardware encryption
I tested the following roms and can confirm that full hardware encryption is working with them.
Android 7.1
LineageOS 14.1 - Discontinued - Last unofficial build from 07-2019
Android 8.1
LineageOS 15.1 - Discontinued
CarbonRom 6.1 - Discontinued - Last official build from 12-2019
I'm currently thinking about building CarbonRom 6.1 myself with latest Google security patches - If I do so I will share the builds in this forum. But maybe I will switch to another device after 4 good years. I cannot and will not use a rom without encryption.

I don't think CR has been discontinued, it's just that builds failed for the past couple of months for some reason.

Test some roms, android 9 support encryption, android 10 not.

Are you sure about that?
The only post about how to use hardware encryption on Android 9 @ Kenzo is the following. He writes that you have to use MIUI first to encrypt before flashing Android 9....

Thank you so much! CarbonRom is very close to AOSP - it will replace LineageOS 14.1 on my Kenzo from now on :good:
sure. crDroid. Please try.

[ROM - Linux] postmarketOS v21.12 for harpia

It has become calm around here. From my side this is due to the offcial Lineage 17.1 updates OTA - there is just no pain which drives me here, harpia just does its job.
I just stumbled over postmarketOS' new release and guess what - harpia is officially supported, only glitch seems to be Wifi has to use channel 6, everything else should work. Another reason not to put harpia on rest.
Motorola Moto G4 Play (motorola-harpia) - postmarketOS
wiki.postmarketos.org
Camera doesn't work on my device, and I believe that applies generally. As I don't make much use of the camera on it, that doesn't bother me too much.
I use it, the msm8916 soc is a good device class to get to know "gnu-linux" handhelds. Wifi has some glitch where it is important which channel it is on, but apart from the camera not working it is worth a look
I've noticed a lot of improvements over time, which is great because there's no guarantee that we'll get Android 11 (never mind 12) on this device.
It's possible to set it up so that it can dual boot after a fashion -to postmarketOS from sdcard and to LineageOS when the card is removed.
It wasn't responding to calls or incoming sms last time I checked but that may have changed. (I need to put a sim in it again to check it out.)
It wasn't responding to calls or incoming sms when suspended last time I checked but that may have changed. (I need to put a sim in it again to check it out.)
Edit: Fixed a bit that I left out.

Thanks, I didn't know about that one. I have seen one or two other 11 roms, but I'm a bit wary of unofficial ones because they can stop being supported without much warning.

AICP ROM v16.1 (Android 11) has more than one year of development, it's completely stable, fast and battery-friendly. It's the best you can get for Harpia.
wow that's totally cool dude do you think i made it to the moto e 2015?
