[ROM][TW][SM-T807P Snapdragon] SuperSkilled Basic ROM V1 + Firmware - Galaxy Tab S Android Development

I am proud to present my second custom rom!
This is the first custom stock based ROM for the SM-T807P (Sprint). I don't plan on updating it that much as I don't own the device . I created this with archikitchen and a little help and testers which are down below. Downloading the firmware took me 14 hours to mirror and download+ the custom rom took an extra 4 hours also. That's 18 hours total! Anyway hope you all enjoy this rom as it should be a tad better than stock in my opinion.

I wouldn't get overexcited about lollipop. Many people who have had it have downgraded, my self included due to issues on my HTC m8..One main one being rapid battery drain, others are incompatibilities with apps. Xposed was incompatible, but that seems to be fixed, however there are still reports of problems.

Factory reset in recovery. Then reboot into download mode. I made a video on how to flash odin roms. Just watch this video I made. https://youtu.be/3KOoyoeozI0
Basically, Just load the T807P firmware in odin, Then hit start. It should get you hback to stock

Yes, you can follow this guide safely. Actually, this is the best guide I've seen so far, I wish I had this one the moment I wanted to start messing around with my phone because I spent more than 48 hours total reading and reading and getting more confused each time.
So go ahead and do it.
And thank you to the OP for putting this up.

And the last one, probably silly question, what CM9 rom is this? Will i have GB or ICS? And if thats GB where can i find safe ICS rom?
Before Galaxy Note, I used to rock HTC Wildfire and didn't wanted to mess around with custom roms because it was just low-end device. Third-party launchers did the job for me when it comes to customization.
When I bought Galaxy Note, I was looking forward to flashing Cyanogenmod or maybe something different (I like Paranoid Android rom and the hybrid mode). I was very disappointed to see that there is a brick bug.
Even though I'm a IT engineer and I have been using computers since Commodore 64, I don't have experience in flashing custom roms so this post is very useful if it's the best way to do it.
Do I have to flash different stock GB before rooting, because I have XXLA6 kernel (baseband: xxla4) and I believe that this version is not directly rootable? Correct me if i'm wrong?
What is the best way to return from custom rom (ie. CM9) to stock GB?
In fact, I've been reading for a good amount of time today but there is just too much information, so sorry for the noobish questions.
I installed rom before 2 days and had similar doubts.
Just want to share what problem I faced :
The mobile should be in ON state when rooting CF I was doing it in OFF download mode

CyanogenMod 9 is based on ICS, CM7 is based on Gingerbread. There wasn't a CM8 because Google never released the source code for Honeycomb.
And what you need is a safe kernel, because the kernel is what sends a erase command to a chip inside the phone and that's when you brick it (I think). That happens when you do a factory reset.
Now, what I always do when I want to change ROMS is to use AbbysNote 4.2 as a safe GB kernel so I can then flash the ROM/Kernel of my choice.
You can find it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1362424&highlight=abyssnote
So let's say you want to go from CM9 to LiquidSmooth (or pretty much any other), which is the one I use now:
You go to CWM recovery, from there you flash AbyssNote.
Once the flashing is completed, you DO NOT exit CWM, instead you go to "Advanced" and then "Reboot to Recovery" so the phone will restart but it will go directly to CWM again, but now with AbyssNote installed.
AbyssNote has a TOUCH based recovery, so it is easier to use. Don't use the physical power and volume buttons to navigate.
From there you can safely do a factory reset, format cache, format Dalvik, flash a new ROM and Kernel.
AbyssNote will then disappear because it will be overwritten by the new Kernel of your choice. So every time I want to change to a new ROM, I repeat the steps above I haven't had any problems whatsoever.
I hope I'm right with my technicalities, but the procedures the OP and I describe are safe to try as long you follow the exact instructions, so before you try anything, read and re-read and you will be just fine.

Thanks for this great guide! I haven't gotten my Note yet as I just ordered it yesterday but I have been lurking around the forums already and trying to understand how flashing roms and kernels works around here. Like someone already said before some of the guides / threads are 'a little' confusing for newcomers. I was really confused with the brick bug that people were writing about. This thread clarified things a lot for me and I believe it will help many more Note-newbies!
So, new Note community member reporting to duty here! :highfive: It's gonna be pretty neat upgrade considering from what phone I come from. Well, the Huawei at least was great step stone to android world gotta admit. I just got somewhat bored with the not so great custom scene.

Believe me, I know about that thread.
One more question for you. Does flashing abyss kernel bring yellow triangle and raise binary counter? I've heard on one of Zedomax's channels on youtube that he recommends flashing this kernel whenever you need to move from one ROM to another.
Cheers mate!

Dont worry about AbyssNote, is safe in both respects. That's the one I always use to do anything that is flashing related.
If, for some reason, you start seeing that dreaded triangle at boot, you can use TriangleAway from Chainfire on Google Play.

Thanks bro, I appreciate the effort to answer these noobish questions.
I will stay on CM9 (and CM10 when it comes) as long as is stable to use it as a daily driver. I don't like the TW interface and I don't need all that S-Pen stuff and pressure sensitivity. Apps from the Play Store are enough for me (Papyrus for example) so there's no need to stay on stock rom.

thanks for the guide.
I have the brickbug firmware also. So am I correct in assuming that if I follow these directions and flash a different GB rom that I will be okay?
Will flashing this India GB rom change my kernel to a more stable one?
And if I flash this India GB rom will it be able to update to ICS through Kies or OTA?
I'm not new to flashing as I used to rom my EVO a lot... I just haven't done it in about a year and this brickbug mess has me standoff-ish.

If you are on GB already, you just have to root the ROM and flash CWM because the brick bug is present only on ICS kernels. 99% sure.
There are some GB Stock ROMs that you cannot root directly, so it depends.
OTA updates from Samsung to ICS I'm not sure, you should ask someone else. When I got my Note it already had ICS, so I never did an OTA update. I don't use Kies at all.
I was very weary at first too, but with the instructions above you will be fine.

I've followed the guide from OP and now I'm rockin' CM9! No problems at all.
My content on the internal memory was intact (apps data, games data, etc), it's all there and I've flashed Indian ROM and then CM9. Have I made a mistake or what?

[Noobs Guide] How to get "DN3 (Ditto Note 3)" ROM working in Samsung Galaxy Note 2
Hi Everyone,
I just now finished installing the ROM successfully so i thought i would atleast make this small tutorial for others, thinking it might be helping them. You wouldn't believe me. I haven't slept the whole night (9hrz without gap) to get this ROM working in my note 2.
Now, a few things about my phone. Trust me, you will require this info because you will then understand what your phone and my phone is. So you could have a clear idea on how to start or where to start.

Phone : Samsung Galaxy Note II N7100
Android Version : 4.1.1 (Its the same version that i had since the time i bought the phone, i didn't update or anything.)
Rooted : NO
Recovery : STOCK
Firmware: Indian firmware (sorry, i don't remember the firmware name)
Click to expand...

Now, prerequisites...!
◘ A Samsung Galaxy Note II with definite 70% and above battery if you are a beginner.
◘ The data cable that is actually working when connected between phone & laptop.
◘ An external SD card with a minimum of 4 GB storage so that you can place the ROM to flash it through Recovery.
◘ DN3 (Ditto Note 3) ROM from E-team (Electron Team) downloaded & kept ready in your computer, because it's about 1.48 GB size.
[Important: See that the ROM is downloaded without any breaks. Check whether it is the "Download Success" or "Download Fail" in the Download Manager. If the ROM is not successfully downloaded & you continue to flash it into your Note 2. Then you are going to feel very bad (Trust me). So check it & only then be ready to start.]

I have one question.
I need to use obligatorily external SD card?
Or I can place to internal too?
All custom roms flashed via external SD ?
How is the battery drain in this rom? I tired quite a few 4.3 based roms and the battery drain was terrible. So I happily went back to 4.1.2 based rom with perseus kernel minimal ram usage and amazing battery life. So just wanted to know about the battery drain and whether it can be used with the perseus kernel?

I need to use obligatorily external SD card?
answer : Yes, OBLIGATORILY external SD card
I say internal also can be used, but the operating manner then would be little complicated for which you might land up into a CONFUSED situation. So it's much better to do it through a SD card
Or I can place to internal too?
Answer : Yes, you can place ,but i told u right If u want it complicated, you may if you already have an idea about Philz touch recovery & etc, then, step up
All custom roms flashed via external SD ?
Answer : You see, most of the people actually try to follow the safe and secure way so they do the flash of ROM's from the External SD card
Now doubts clarified ?
If got any more :cyclops: , just lemme know

How is the battery drain in this rom? I tired quite a few 4.3 based roms and the battery drain was terrible. So I happily went back to 4.1.2 based rom with perseus kernel minimal ram usage and amazing battery life. So just wanted to know about the battery drain and whether it can be used with the perseus kernel?

Ok, I'm looking to do this myself, I'm on a i317 (at&t lte variant) and have found the ROM for that version. My question is, I was told that it would be "trickier" to flash the custom ROM because I have already updated my phone to 4.3 stock. Now I'm aware that flashing the custom ROM will now void my warranty, that is not my concern, my question is what will make it "trickier?" I was not able to receive a response from the person that said this, and now I'm just trying to gather info before attempting this.

I was under the same impression after I upgraded my N7105T (Australia - Telstra) to 4.3 as well.
The reality is that it is not trickier in the slightest. What did happen for me upon the initial flashing of the ROM from Philz recovery was that I was stuck on the initial boot logo until I pulled out the battery and restarted my phone in Philz recovery again. I then flashed the bootloader, thinking that was why it got stuck. After that, all went just fine after performing the installation/flashing again in Philz recovery. I performed a reboot into recovery after the install was completed, factory reset the handset and all was fine thereafter. I was able to restore my data as well as the majority of my apps. Some needed reinstallation, such as phone banking for obvious reasons but all in all, it was very much the painless process.
I'm really happy with it now. I just recently flashed it with the AGNi kernel as well, which was a nice improvement though I've changed from the zzmove battery profile to zzmove optimised profile to see if I still get any issues with apps slowing down to a grinding halt before needing a reboot of the handset to get it back up to speed again.

Was it absolutely necessary for you to quote my entire message when it had very little to do with your question? Please just use the reply button instead of the reply with quoting next time. It will clutter the forums a lot less.
As for your wife not working, I would suggest a divorce.
For the rest of the things you're seeking, I searched the forum and found everything I needed.
Sorry quoting yoi
Sorry I quoted your entire post.
If I had an answer, I won't border asking for help cos I still can't see how you have helped me with your post.
Thanks anyway
In searching through the forums and Google, I found only bootloaders for N7100. What I did find was recommendations to simply upgrade to the official Samsung 4.3 release using Kies and then following the installation procedure for DN3.
Not sure why I'm only seeing N7100 versions of the MJ5 bootloader but everything is smooth on my N7105T with the MK2 bootloader.

Thanks for the response, I ended up doing it and much like yourself, it went beautifully. I'm quite happy with it. I haven't really had any kernel issues so I'm hesitant to flash other ones unless they greatly improve something. Did you flash the the new kernel because of the app slowdown issue you were having? Or just to improve performance in general?
It was to beef up the phone's performance in terms of power consumption but that seemed to work against me.

The rom works like a charm, except for a gimmick: The WiFi is not working. Tried flashing a wifi patch and it worked, but then the camera stopped working. After hours trying to make the camera work, now it does but the wifi does not.
When I try turning the WiFi on it just switches off automatically. Also flashed Devil Kernel, Toooiiko (or something of the sorts) kernel, and they just made the problem worse by fixing the wifi but no camera AND no mobile network of any kind. :rolleyes
Any ideas/suggestions are more than welcome.

Hey Artstar,
I realize you don't like people quoting your entire posts so I thought I'd keep this one brief (not understanding 100% how XDA internals work, I wanted to make sure I got your attention by quoting you at least).
ANYWAYS
I have updated to 4.3 stock (vodafone) which turns out to be ML5 (from memory, phone is not working 100% right now).
Can I please ask (beg, lol) for a link to the bootloader you "flashed" to fix your problem? I've just:
1. updated to 4.3 stock
2. followed instructions on the DN3 V5 ROM install...
Now the first thing I've noticed is my phone won't detect my sim card :-/ So, into my old HTC my sim card goes! I need a phone for the morning, but would ideally like to have a note 2 with working DN3 rom... If you can help at all it would be GREATLY appreciated, as you said; I can't find a bootloader for the GT-N7105T... there are plenty for the other variants, but I really am having trouble finding one for ours.
This is very hopeful that my vodafone model is the same as your tesltra model based on the actual model number, but regardless I've got (and admittedly, I'm guessing a bit here) a dud bootloader installed and would greatly appreciate your input.
Thanks in advance mate, any help is much appreciated. I have searched the entire note 2 thread - perhaps my search skills are not up to scratch or perhaps there is no bootloader and I'm not understanding your instructions correctly.
Cheers!

MIUI for Note 3 - Talk & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I installed the official MIUI 4.7.4 build on my Note 3 N9005, all I get is a black screen after a reboot. I can get to Downloadmode and CWM recovery, so I got that going at least ^^
Things I have done:
- Flash via CWM
- I did the regular wipes and clearups
- I waited about an hour for the first boot, but nothing
- 2 restarts with 30 minutes waiting time for boot each, but nothing
- Installed it again after wiping a second time
The version is for N9005 (which I have), so this couldn't be the problem either. The downloaded file is also complete and not corrupted or anything. What did go wrong?
Edit: Solved. Philz Recovery was required for install.

Yeah, I read that too somewhere. I will report later if it worked with Philz Recovery
Edit: Awesome, it worked!
To anyone encountering the same issue: Replace your CWM recovery with Philz Recovery, and install MIUI with Philz Recovery...then it should work!
You will be stuck in the bootanimation after the MIUI install, wait 10-15 minutes first, if nothing happens, just press and hold the Power-off button until the phone shuts down and restarts again. Then MIUI shouldn't be stuck anymore.
First impressions: Bloody brilliant! Everyone loving a beautiful lightweight Android should get MIUI!
Everything seems to work fine. Make sure you install Google Apps alongside MIUI.
Samsung features: S Pen works perfectly, you just won't see the floating pointer indicating where you are. As it is the first version, it will be only a matter of time seeing MIUI builds with that kind of adjustments for the Note 3 So exited!

to have S pen and all it´s glory we need a ported version of MIUI in a TW base.. ( PLEASE IF ANYONE COULD DO THIS)
this one for sure is CM base...
btw tried it very good rom
Battery impression
@btimeh
The battery life is amazing in MIUI - it was one of the things I was watching first.
I seem to get about 1 to 2 hours more of battery life compared to any of my previous TouchWiz ROMs like X-Note or Omega...well it is obvious because MIUI is very lightweight and isn't filled with junk or features noone uses. MIUI is also faster than anything you have seen.
I am using the stock Kernel and get these good results. And that with the first MIUI version ever, who knows how even better it can get in the future.
Yes, there are some bugs for now, but these things will be fixed soon. For being the first version, it amazes me how good everything is already
Great,will test asap.
I tested the rom and put back my backup. This is close to daily use but for some reason I can't use whatsapp. It will fc and Google playstore does fc as well after you've installed it. Also I keep getting that my system storage is full (even though it's not) still as smooth as ever tho, just not rdy for daily use yet. We'll at least not for me

Yeah, WhatsApp isn't working. But they will fix it soon.
All Google Apps do work though, which version did you install? I installed the gapps-stock 4.4.2 (20140608), everything works fine.
Your system storage shows to be full? That is strange, I don't know what could have been the cause. I had something like that on some other ROM in the past, I wiped the internal SD card and formatted /system with CWM, then installed again (make sure keeping the .zip files on external SD ^^). It had worked for me.
I did wipe everything. I installed the rom 3 times just to try. I'll wait till whatsapp works in the following update and I'm ready to use this baby daily

Magisk ROM for the J3 Emerge SM-J327P ( Boost Mobile, Sprint, Sprint XAS, and Virgin

**No longer being maintained**
IF YOU HAVE NOT READ AND FOLLOWED THIS POST COMPLETELY BEFORE FLASHING MY ROMS, I DO NOT WANT TO SEE ANY COMPLAINTS!!!
For your SuperSU ROMs go to @Sands207 thread :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...custom-rom-j3-emerge-sm-j327p-t3634206/page83
Magisk ROMs AFH
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=232990
BOOST MOBILE VARIANT ONLY, AT THE MOMENT.
If anyone wants a magisk build, take the ARG2 stock update and go through intial setup. When you do take the update, you WILL NOT, I repeat you WILL NOT be able to downgrade to the ARF2,ARC1 AQJ3,APL1, AQF4 , and AQB6 versions or you will risk bricking your device.
From now on, ALWAYS, I repeat, ALWAYS, keep Gapps( arm, 6.0, stock) on hand!!!
There is no need to check any of the checkboxes when using the aroma as you should have already wiped dalvik,system,data, and cache prior to flashing the ROM. I have also integrated the no verity ashyx zip into my ROM, so unless data cant be mounted then before flashing rom, there is NO reason to flash the no verity ashyx zip manually. After flashing rom, wipe cache , dalvik and then reboot.
If you like what I do, feel free to donate here:

This is so we can help you easier.
DSP Manager is now working again, so anyone who was having problems with it fc'ing, just re-download from my afh, as i will be replacing the zip with the one that doesnt fc.
If you're having problems with Google dialer, make sure it is set as the default dialer.
**ROM has now been updated with Good Lock as systemUI**

I finally pulled us out of alpha and the first beta is ready. She's a little rough around the edges but overall it's pretty nice. I'll update the OP in a few. Once we can get the stock from stable I'll build a device tree and take a crack at compiling and building lineage os and probably others too, hang in there
@jlrockafella and @SonderTech beta will be live soon here https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0Bz99NuhE3XwmcHUzcmhpZXJ4Sms i included stock boot.img so those who would like to use it instead of supersu can do so. This will be less complicated @SonderTech i included your boot animation too. i have slow upload so hang tight and thank you so much for all the contributions you've made!! ??I'll update the op with simple directions for us in a bit but it's close to stable now

You have twrp on your device now correct? I have successfully built one for boost. Tonight I'm working on the sprint version for a friend and if you like I could make one for Virgin if firmware is available, im doing this in my extra time so it make take me a few days but I'll certainly try if you want me to.
I do have twrp. I'm glad I asked before bricking my phone haha. I'll check up on it next week. I can't thank you enough, these are not bad little phones. I'm baffled there aren't more people working on projects like this for these samsungs.

Your ROM is in testing phase so I dont want to tear things apart and replace them until we know whats good and not good. Thank you for your support. Enjoy and follow along as we improve on this base ROM. I used Virgin Firmware so make a backup please first and let me know what you think.

[GUIDE][addison] SETUP Moto z play XT1635-02 : from stock 6.0 to custom ROM.

I have the habit of always asking on a new device no matter how much I think I know!
I have an xt1635-02 (I am US ATT Prepaid)(nano SIM) supposedly here tomorrow so I've been reading tons here.
However, it seems that a lot of the threads are aimed at rooting stock, which I never do.
As a rule, it's trivial:
[!] In this case it seems best to OTA update stock to 7.1.1 if it isn't already. I believe bootloader must be 7.x.x for doing custom Oreo ROMs . Since mine was 6.0 it took about 8 updates OTA and maybe 2 hours(wifi) .
[!]I go to moto site and do the unlock bootloader dance (already carrier unlocked supposedly).
https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/unlock-your-device-a
[!]Then flash twrp-3.2.1-0-addison.img (Alberto97) using fastboot on my PC. (Ubuntu 17.10 dev 18.04 with adb and fastboot)(dual boot win7)
I do this twice in a row as I have experienced it not working the first time (dead android LOL).(OCD much??? )
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mo...recovery-unofficial-twrp-moto-z-play-t3495629
- - -
[!] -->then flash Alberto's verity patch mentioned at the top of his TWRP thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mo...recovery-unofficial-twrp-moto-z-play-t3495629
This modifies stock. Else your backups of stock won't boot. Learned this the hard way!

[!]Then use TWRP to backup (default settings) stock a couple of times and put copies of both on PC (via USB on stock).(or if for some reason my USB-C doesn't work, via wifi to my router using filezilla FTP and phone app: "wifi file transfer" by "DNL Media UG"(needs permission storage=on..) - I had to redo this twice - redo this twice - kept dropping back to stock recovery.
[!]Then flash the boot logo using fastboot on PC - I usually use TWRP for this but these that I found here are not set up to be TWRP flash compat so will just remove bin from zip and flash using PC. I think I have about 4 possibilities that I found on these threads. Nice! Easy.
[!]Then boot to TWRP and flash Alberto97's AOSP 8.1 arm64 ROM. Why that ROM you may ask. Been using mainly that Alberto97 ROM on my Moto G3 (32bit version of course), and love it. There's plenty of time to try all the others!!!
I usually consider 2 root options; SuperSU 2.82-SR5, or majisk 1520. (for future readers, these are the latest at this time.)(besides I'm very used to them.)
With SuperSU I have had no probs wiping all 4(Dalvik/ART, system, data, cache), flash ROM, flash 8.1 gapps, flash SUperSU, and boot to install.
With majisk I have sometimes had troubles during install if I flash majisk in the first batch so I tend to wipe all 4, flash ROM and gapps, and boot to install. Then when I finally hit desktop, boot back to TWRP and flash 1520 and reboot.
I need root to use TBPro - no restoring on first time with this 64bit ROM- got to do it the hard way!
SO I believe that's it, but if anyone sees a flaw or problem in there, I would appreciate your help.
Thanks!!!
yep look right, i would have added backup EFS and Modem partitions, if you want to be completely safe.
For now, open gapps 8.1 are only unofficial, i would feel a bit unsecure to use that, but it's only me.

Merci! Many thanks for looking in!!!
Yes, forgot to add that - did much xda search on the efs thing and best I found seemed to be a twrp-3.1.1-0-EFS-addison.img which I may very well flash first and do that since no other TWRP that I looked at offers backup efs. Official and squid2 derived (G3) don't. I assume Alberto's doesn't. Seems like I did it very manually on the G3. If you have it it's a pretty good guarantee that you'll never need it! (Murphy axiom)
As to unofficial gapps, I've been testing about 5 different 8.1 ROMs on the Moto G3 over the past couple months and if the gapps aren't built in to the ROM(some pixelexperience roms), all you can get is an unofficial gapps, or do a minor simple hack to an 8.0 so it will accept it. Usually devs will include it. Bless Alberto97 for not including it so I can select my own!!! But I've had no prob with gapps. Open gapps project has 8.0, but of course they won't work on a true 8.1 unless minor hack. I was planning on using open_gapps-arm64-8.1-aroma-20180109-UNOFFICIAL.zip (from https://cloud.kenzoroms.club/?dir=opengapps) unless you have a better idea. I wanted to grab camera from aroma(somebody's idea), but I also have about 5 other cameras and gcams waiting on the Sdcard that I want to test, simply because there seemed to be disagreement on what works on Alberto's new 8.1 build, so wanted to be able to report.
Thanks again!

Thanks for great link! yeah I think I used adb as well as an app last time. I'll add recovery this time so that's 3 backups on internal storage (and copied to PC) should be enough! (yes dear readers I am serious about this - 3 times! They are so tiny! And that pretty much guarantees I'll never need it, but if I do, it's childs play to get it back.)
Thanks!!!
If you're wondering about the delay, they sent me a -01 (Droid)(Murphy's law), so they paid for a UPS next day air label back to them(mailed at 4PM) - don't know if I'll get this going before Sat! Oh well!!! Never take these things too seriously!!! Gotta be costing them a chunk! I did briefly turn it on and stuck the SIM in it and it did show LTE on my ATT, but there's a few bands missing that are on the -02, so will wait. Pretty display, though!!! Really looking forward to it!!!

Good plan on sending it back. You would have been SOL trying to root the -01

The only thing is no moto mods on non stock (any thing past 7.1.1 or aosp) roms

yes. stock 8.x is a no-no. This one that is coming is 6.0.1 So I will let it ota update to 7.1.1 after giving it a thorough check-out, then try unlocking it, etc. Sound right? I have no interest in any of the hardware-type addons, just the plain phone 3/32 octacore etc. Why this one? - I love the reception (radio) strength of Motos, plus a ton of other things. I stick with them. Plus it's all Albeto97's fault for deving on AOSP 8.1
Lol Alberto97's roms are buttery smooth!

I think they are. He recently came out with an 8.1 AOSP version for the Moto G3 and I love it. I test others, but that's my daily driver. Sure not perfect, but quite good enough for me!!! So I figure when I get it (Tues?) that's what I'll put on it. There's always plenty of time to test others!
Okay, since I am waiting for phone (Tues) , obviously I am worried about "what-if"s and so researching on what to do, "if".
I succeeded in finding a nice zip for 7.1.1 with the Nov security patch
https://firmware.center/firmware/Motorola/Moto Z Play/Stock/
(I am US)(there are many others at that nice site!!!)
That took a lot of time.
Then I needed to be sure that I could get RSD lite to run, and tried and tried to no avail to get it to recognize my phone (even on my laptop) (I was testing with an old Moto G3 stock zip and my G3 phone) before some post gave me a version number much higher than at the RSD site. google gave me:
http://rsdlite.en.lo4d.com/
version 6.2.4, which worked perfectly.
I really need to write a short guide on this stuff - feels like I'm re-inventing the wheel, even though many folks have written much before I came along!
The reason for the above two is that for a while the last few days I kept running into folks who had taken 7 OTA and wound up with a bricked phone. So, yes, I just did a search for "brick" on xda in moto z play and will start reading them! LOL
Quick EDIT: I think I am wrong in that brick assumption - the first 3 I looked at involved encryption and 2 downgrades to MM (which is a no-no). I will read further.
edit2 - nevermind - most are downgrading to MM. Wish folks would just ask before doing that. That is a no-no of most (all?) phones. -
Hi,
Please share your camera result using Alberto97's roms. I some ROM but i dont like camera result, i think stock ROM still better in camera.
Thank You

I have no problem with various cameras getting good image, but sometimes on still first pic doesn't save. ( tried camera MX and Professional camera hd. I'm sure lots work about the same.)
Forgot to flash Alberto's verity patch right after flashing TWRP. So I had to RSD lite 7.1.1 Nov 1 and start over - no big deal! OP corrected.
Hello Kris,
I would like to ask for a link where I can download a working RSD so I can unlocked my bootloader.
Thanks
