DEAR ADM1N: LAMENESS OVER 9000!!1111
Full untouched signed SBF from for the Verizon Droid 2.
Took me awhile to find it so I figured I'd post it.

Thanks! Saw similar post over @ MDW also. Downloaded.Then I let 'em know over @ RootzWiki, where a few got excited!

Sure makes flashing custom roms much less a pain in the ass. Also this 1 click root tool works flawlessly on a fresh install of gb. http://www.psouza4.com/Bionic/
Checked out the latest MIUI rom for the d2, found it over at rootzwiki. Can't say i was all that impressed by it. Seems to me to be a bad iphone wanna be rom. I gave it about a day and flashed back to froyo. Tried to flash cyanogens latest 139 build but it didn't wanna happen, so i just returned my phone to froyo.
Kinda sucks working with custom roms on the d2, due to the locked bootloader.

13th angel is working on CyanogenMod 9 [BETA] (D2) it is getting close depends on what you need to work
http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-2-roms/199227-cyanogenmod-9-beta-d2.html

I tried miui 2.2.10 and it just seemed to be way to buggy for me. No keyboard lights, i know there's a fix for that. But still its something so small it makes me wonder what else didn't work. The camera seemed to work correctly. It just seemed like it was a FC nightmare. Apps either were slow to open or didn't open at all. And i'm talking about simple things like the dialer.
I do still intend to install Cyanogen just to check it out.

2.2.10 is running without issue for me. The keyboard lights thing is minor, so if that turns you off of a a Rom I'd say it's likely nothing will please you because CM has issues of its own. Regardless, both are great Roms with tons of options you won't get from stock.. Considering how laggy and buggy stock GB is I'm not sure what there is to complain about, but to each his own.

2.2.10 is running great for me to. Tried CM9 and it runs well but no camera is a drawback.

Yeah i decided to give miui (2.2.10) another try and yes it seems to be pretty solid. I was surprised to see pretty much 99% of my froyo apps work as is, without upgrading. The ones that didn't i simply upgraded and they work. What i think happened before was i just didn't get a clean install for whatever reason and it made things super glitchy. Like i said the dailer barely worked at all in the last install, but on this one i haven't had it fc yet so im thinking it was a install problem. Other things also work that didn't before like volume+. Its a nice rom once you tailor it to you're liking. All in all i get around the same battery life as i did with froyo. Which is around 2 and a half hours gaming, 10 hours normal use. I used to use green power and that would increase my battery standby to like 15-16 hours. Anyone know of any tips with miui? People have reported getting like 40 hours? I realize not all batteries are created equal obviously but whats the average you guys are seeing?

Extended battery--real Moto, not seidio or any of those--leaves me around 60% battery at the end of every day. I turn syncing off with power control, use auto brightness which is way better on MIUI than it ever was on Froyo or GB, and get rid of any apps that decide that they can run as often as they like.

[rom] lollikat v6 beta based on kitkat 5.0.2

Hey guys this is a rom that i found looking thru the net. I figured i would share it on here with the rest of you guys. Not long ago i posted a subject about a lollipop rom that i thought may have been real but turned out it was a fake. And i know there havent been any roms for this device except for miui. And not everyone likes miui but people want something visually pleasing but different.
That Being said i present to to you guys lollikat. This rom is Based on a port from the Blu vivo iv and has alot of awesome features like working xposed, framework themed to look like lollipop and much more. I am not the developer of this rom again i am just sharing this rom to the rest of you guys.
I have noticed a few bugs with this rom.
There seems to be some small keyboard issues where you type and the keyboard does something other then what you wanted.
When.you first set up the phone it seems that if you leave the option on to recover your old settings from google the Phone goes into a black screen and you cant do anything except hard reset the phone. And when it reboots it continues to do it. Ive found that leaving this setting unchecked will fix this issue.
The audio gets crackily from time to time.
Other then those issues the rom works perfect.
I urge you guys To Flash The rom and see if you get similar results. I am also hoping that by sharing this rom thag a dev will take a look at it and resolve these bugs.
I hope you guys enjoy this rom as it has alot of potential. At least until the lollipop ota rolls out later this month.
Enjoy guys...

Only reason I went back to stock is because of that hideous scrolling animation. Twice as slow to find what you want.

The rom itself isn't bad but that scrolling effect is super annoying and the over scroll looks really poorly done. I'm not sure how to remove it myself.

Cyanogen is more and more sh*tty

I don't know how about you. But every update of Cyanogen, is worst and worst.
New update = not good working widgets, some features missings.
I think that they release only beta version

Yes, I share the same opinion. Like the lockscreen bug, which was fixed start of may in the nightly builds, is still present on the latest build. And then they didn't implemented the weather option correctly.

I totally agree.
Gesendet von meinem A0001 mit Tapatalk

Why don't you quit whining and install a custom rom? First Cyanogen OS does not make beta updates they make Stable updates that fix the bugs that were in the previous ROM builds and versions. I flashed there newest COS13.1 build and it works completely fine and my carrier acts much better than it did previously. They also fixed many other issues that you can find out yourself. They are not a ****ty company and OS and you shouldn't be making posts like this. I want the moderators to remove your post because you may of have offended the makers of the stock rom and of the phone itself. Please think twice before you make posts like this as it is hurtful to others

If the lockscreen bugs you were referring to tapping the lockscreen shortcuts rapidly they appear at the status bar, its there but that's a non issue cause you have to really be retarded to be doing that.
The weather provider option isn't available. You have to use a workaround to get it to show up.
Another bug I experience is volume keys skip tracks works intermittently. Really annoying that's its not consistent. It works perfectly on CM13 nightlies so they'll fix it eventually
I also had some really slow charging but a subsequent flash of the fastboot image fixed it.
I love the ROM regardless, it performs great and no major deal breakers, neither do I think Cyanogen is crap. Just chiming in on the bugs

The thing is, It was number 1 topic on the cm13 nightlies discussion thread, and I personally don't care about this bug, but it's there and that should not happen for a official release of cyanogen.

I don't use cyanogen os, so i don't have to patient But I'm a very patient person, so no problem for me.

So nice to see people whine about a company which is releasing continuous updates for a 2 year old phone. Isn't that the kind of support that people get on Nexus, but still people find a reason to whine about it.
Buy the OnePlus 2 or 3 and see the Oxygen OS support that you get and then compare it with COS, probably then you will appreciate COS support.

Best ROM out there for Moto X Style?

Hello, two questions:
- What is the most stable and most problem-free 7.1 ROM for Moto X Style? CM, Lineage, Slim7?
- Should I wait for the official ROM?
Thanks.

For me it's dirty unicorns. It's really stable and the latest weekly has the camera running superb for me so far with Snapchat and the inbuilt camera app. Also has the most kernel customizations out of every 7.1.1 custom ROM. Highly recommend you to try it out and see for yourself since ROMs are based on personal preference.

And I would recommend: next time ask such questions in the Q&A section or even general section but NEVER in android development section.

Don't take this the wrong way since it is a sincere question. Why not in a developer thread? I have been a member of the CM11 thread until the project ended and it was a developer thread, the ONLY place you could get up to the minute, real help for the custom rom. It was a developer thread especially made for this rom.

Because the question is generic. Fur the most part the development sections should be geared toward resolving issues with ROMs and/or what features the ROM may need improvement on. Asking what people think is the most stable ROM or what not sure not contribute to development.

That is a good answer. No one should be in developer threads asking what is the best rom, etc. But to join a rom specific developer thread is a good place to post rom questions for this device. We need *some place* to discuss this and IMHO, the developer threads are the best, where you get the best answers, and most serious places to get answers. With that in mind, one has to behave accordingly. I.e.: No clowning around for best rom, best games, pokemon, or any other out of place questions or comments. You have earned your Thanks. Thanks!
EDIT: "Generic" question, that is the significant part I missed. There are plenty of places to discuss generic rom questions but not in a developer thread. For specific questions, I would imagine there are threads for that. My CM11 thread was quite specific so the Q&A was most welcome there. :good:

Please read up on it in the forums dedicated for the ROM. That is part of the purpose of those forums: to report issues and allow people such as yourself to determine if the ROM will work for you by reading through them.

I have read through them all. There is no sufficient information. Everyone is like thank you so much for this without saying any issues, so after installation I found everything was broken.
When u ask also people come and say "why don't u try it for urself?" What sort of theory is that? last time all ROMs used to have a section at least for bug list of features that doesn't work, but none of the new ROMs have that. Its like we have to take a medicine without knowing the side effects to know only about them after trying it.

Camera is now stable. Flashlight not as much. Its mostly just slow. Everything else is now stable and is my daily driver, I've been using it not because the camera is better. I havnt found anything broken. Gonna try truepure stock rom today just because I sorda miss it. But I'm gonna stick with dirty unicorn because its working perfectly for me now with mini dynamic apps. Also open gapps aroma also work great.

Aicp April nightlies have been amazing, huge upgrade over previous Roms for me, including previous versions of AICP itself. Battery life is poor currently, but everything is buttery smooth and snappy (v4a, Substratum, pixel launcher, moto camera and gallery all working flawlessly). I'd highly recommend trying it, even if you have previously. I just switched my color profile to "deep black colorful" as well and i must say I'm really loving my phone again.

I had major problems flashing DU when I tried. I did a full wipe and tried 3 different gapps, including the recommended mini dynamic gapps and I got constant google play services force closes when it booted up. I couldn't even get to settings to try to close or mute something to look around at what was causing it. I'm using Ground Zero Roms Validus and its great for the most part. Still want to try DU though if I can figure out that issue.

That's weird. I never had that problem before. I might flash the ROM and gapps and make a backup and maybe install it to Android file host so you won't run into any problems. I use open gapps aroma and change the SMS app, clock, calender, and other stock apps for Google apps and it worked fine for me. Even dynamic gapps worked fine. I don't know what the problem could be.

I can understand the frustration, but to some degree it is almost a crap shoot, especially on AOSP. Things can break from one update to the next as the devs work their magic. What worked today may not work tomorrow and vice versa. That is why I recommend trying then out. Devs typically work to improve their ROMs both stability and feature wise but given the difference in usage, apps, and even manufacturing variances in hardware internals, a ROM could work well for one user's needs but be broken for another.
As far as AOSP, I hear a lot of good things about AICP, but I use stock rooted on my MXPE so I can't confirm anything. It works great on my old LG G3 D850.

How?

Sorry for the noob question...I did a lot of custom roms on my SGS2 and SGS4 but when I got my Moto X Pure I have just used it stock.
I have been having enough issues with it that I considered replacing it with a Moto G5 Plus but decided I might as well try a ROM before I give up on it entirely.
So back to the noob question...how do I get from stock to that ROM? Also, can you send me a link to the ROM you are talking about (This one? https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-style/development/rom-aicp-clark-xt1575-t3222868/page646)

To your noob question: I'm pretty sure the general process is the same to get a custom ROM as the SGSs you did. Flash the appropriate custom ROM made for your device via custom recovery. That has not really changed since custom ROMs for Android first came into being. The methods of getting a custom recovery onto a device changes though so please use due diligence to get it done if you haven't already.

Please report back how it goes, especially with functionality. They are claiming MIUI 12 so I am keen to see what is and isn't working.

I have successfully downloaded and flashed it! ?
Hello,
I am here, from Kuala Lumpur, MY
As for now, so far so good. Need to experience more the latest miui12!
See yeah!

I'd say the same. Everything works well except for some minor minor bugs with the dark mode and 3rd part apps (like SwiftKey) and the fact that it's not that fast and smooth as the previous one I had (pixel experience). The main camera app works as well and video recording works too (but for some reason it records only up to 1080p 60 fps). The main question I have now is about the battery drain. I hope it's at least as optimized as the pixel experience is.

Great reports,
Interesting about the video working to 1080p. Any idea if 5g connectivity is working?
I wonder what they have based this on as there is only MIUI 11 beta ROM in circulation as far as I know and this registers as MIUI12.

I think they kinda ported the ROM from the one for the Xiaomi K20 Pro since they have quite the same hardware. I read once that, even if it's very risky, you can force flash a K20 ROM on the Mi MIX 3 and it will boot anyway. Unfortunately I can't test the 5G network, BUT:
There's no "Tethering USB" option in the settings. This functionality is disabled for some reason.
There's no "Hotspot" option in the settings. This functionality is disabled too :crying:
The ROM is quite laggy (Don't know if it's because of a conservative governor or if it's just about a bad optimization).
I think I'll roll back to pixel experience, too many problems that need to be solved yet.

I flashed it on the global version and got a lot of problems like loosing my EMEI and so on. Luckily I had a backup. But I don't want to go back to Android 9, do you have a link to the PE rom? Thanks.
Btw, it is the rom from the Mi8SE.

Here's the link to the repository with all the ROMs for Andromeda:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/xiaomi-andromeda/files/
Just tap on the green button saying "download the latest version" and it will download the PE. Or just go into the Pixel Experience directory and find the latest one =)
I also suggest you to install the 78 Hz dtbo, it's freaking smooth

The official RevOS website says, that the 5g rom is a port from the mi8SE firmware.
I tried it again and now it seems to work. But I can't set the Fingerprint. Did you tested the Fingerprint and if yes, was it working?

Guys, is this an official ROM of MIUI for MIX3 5G? It will be update normally?

Actually I don't remember of testing the fingerprint scanner, but it's always the first thing I set during the first set-up, so I don't remember if it worked on my phone or if I skipped that step XD
A porting from a completely different phone with a different SoC family and model, different modem (and it's not even compatible for the 5G), different screen type and resolution? The only thing matching between the Mi 8 SE and the Mi Mix 3 5g is the main camera sensor XD And I'm not even considering that there are different approaches to the light sensor/proximity sensor and so on. I mean, why?

Maybe the challenge strange, I haven't got any set up screen. Straight into the launcher. I will test PE instead. Sounds promising, thanks for that.

No? There isn't even the official MIUI 11 for the Mi MIX 3 5G. This is a porting from the MIUI 12 ROM for the Mi 8 SE apparently, made by this RevOS Russian team.

Me neither, but then there was the Google notification to complete the setup of the phone and I did it.
Yeah, I'm using it now and it's absolutely perfect. The video recording is the only thing missing.

sorry i'd like to know if this is an official custom rom (like lineage), and not some unofficial or unstable ones, thanks.

The MIUI 12 is absolutely unofficial, and way far to be something barely stable XD
Anyway, every custom ROM for the Mi Mix 3 5G is Unofficial.

No I don't think they will, the Mi MIX 5G is (officially?) abandoned, although there is a petition here:
https://www.change.org/p/xiaomi-corporation-upgrade-mi-mix-3-5g-flagship-to-miui-11
So maybe Xiaomi will notice that that wasn't a fair and smart move, I mean, forgetting about their first 5G smartphone (and in general, one if not the first 5G smartphone ever made), with top-notch features, initially sold for around 600$ is nearly like a scam.
Anyway, I don't suggest you install the Revos porting at the moment. It lacks many basic features (such as USB tethering or the Wi-Fi hotspot) and it's very, very laggy.
