Hello g4 users - Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers

Hello my fellow g4 users i hace just baught g4 plus so i am not aware of all the custom roms here on g4 community so if someone could fill me in about these roms it would be very helpful

Go to the development section and take a look. They're all based on cm13, all of them got the same cm13 quirks and their own features and problems. Try one and see if you like it, or don't, since stock is almost perfect in any way, perfect, xposed stock is unbeatable.

Thanx for ur reply brother

Isn't VANIR AOSP not cm?

[Q] Current Situation of Original Android Dev Roms!

Hello everyone, I've just tested practically every rom for LG G2 stock based.
I'm coming from a Nexus 5 as many users around here and I miss the functionalities of the Original Android Development roms!
In the Nexus 5 I tried many of them (if not all) but ended up using Slimkat, after some months I ended up using CM11 because it was easier to update and simpler.
What is the current situation of these kind of roms?
I've tried mahdi rom and I seem pretty happy with it, but it doesn't get updated as often as CM11
CM11 has always shine for his awesome kernel and battery performance, is this the case in our G2?
I'm pretty sad having to say goodbye to that awesome camera
Hope you guys can help me!

AOSPextended v4.1 OR RR v5.8.3?

I'm on LG G2 D802 and I've recently installed crDroid which I didn't like and right now I'm trying to decide between AOSP and RR. Both are based on Nougat 7.1.2 but I'm not sure what's the difference between them and which one is generally more stable so for the people who tried both ROMs, what do you think?
I'm asking because I need my phone to be up and running as quickly as possible and I'm kinda undecided which one to bother downloading, installing, & tweaking right away.
Thanks in advance

Hi!
Some time ago I started a nougat-poll. I don't think there are stability- or performance-differences between AOSP, RR and Lineage. It's more a question of personal taste. Personally I tried nearly every ROM just to realize that I like stock-based ROMs. :laugh:

T mobile H918 V20 ROM recommendations..

Hi all. Just looking for a ROM recommendation as I'm new to the V20. So far am using the NRD90M Modded NotSoStock ROM v6.5 3/12/17, and its awesome. I love how everything is working.
Just interested in exploring options. I need wi-fi calling to work (only absolute requirement) and love the stock camera so I guess I'm looking for stock based ROMs preferentially.
I mean no disrespect to devs and that's why I posted this in a separate thread, out of the ROM/development area, etc.
Would you tell me the ROM you like and what about it you really like, enjoy, etc? Thanks again all! :good:

Stable Oreo? Please read completely

I am wanting to unlock my new moto g5 plus. I have to have it for work so the rom has to be the five 9s. I am not trying to start a word war just a simple question. Yes I have done some searching and so far I have gotten many conflicted statements. I have RETUS on 93-8 build. Any help would be great
What is the most stable and close to AOSP Oreo rom we have?
Also I have a Full Backup of 93-8. If you have TWRP and want to go back to stock just restore. Let it boot. most things didnt work. Reboot into recovery and factory reset I did it X3 just old habit and reboot everything is working fine. will update post with link if anyone is interested
Thank you
P.S. MODS I am not trying to have a best rom thread here. Each rom has features each person wants etc etc. If it starts to get crazy please remove thread.
Thank you in advance for your help.

Now, I'm currently in AOSP Extended and works like a charm, even on camera and the OBB bug that some Oreo ROMs have it's fixed. There's Pixel Experience, but the ROM it hasn't been updated since February; it's really stable but it has problems with the camera in some apps and other small bugs. If you want personalization and stability, go for AOSPExtended. If you want only stability and lightweight Pixel/AOSP alike experience, go for PE or LineageOS (I haven't tried this ROM yet, but it is there). Good luck!

I think AOSP Extended is a good choice.
It's in active development, has the major Oreo bugs fixed, nice features and a good performance.
But it shouldn't be unsaid that I haven't found a custom rom that could hold a candle to stock in terms of battery and stability.
And don't forget that there could be major issues when you want to go back to stock like losing IMEI, 4g or voLTE. Be sure to have a backup especially of EFS.
All custom roms are build without a "real android 8" for Moto G5+ so maybe it could be worth waiting for stock Oreo.

I am trying it now, the only problem I have is since I was on 93-8 there is no full firmware yet. I cant go to 93-4 get invalid everything. So until that firmware is released guess its custom for me hopefully Oreo comes soon so we can get any small issues in Oreo roms ironed out. Deff been a fun day playing with roms
Im using OmniROM for a month or so.
Good battery (from 5am to aprox. 11pm with 2h+ of music listening, and general usage)
Câmera I personally dont use much but works fine.
Is fast and stable nothing to complain about.
Im not using FOR work anymore since I got another job, but I certainly sure if I have to, the phone will work fine.
I've been using nitrogen os for a few months now and never had one reboot and battery is better than stock with my usage.
I thankfully did a full backup before I did anything so I can go back to stock rom with stock recovery

looking for custom rom

So according to you, which is the best & stable custom rom for Moto G5+? and which rom you are currently using?

It's really astonishing that every week a thread with that question pops up here, I think at the moment we have three or four of these. Why has everyone to open a new thread to ask a question that can't be answered?
The only valid answer is: Try them out.
There is no "best" custom ROM, if there would be one we only needed that, all other ROMs would be obsolete.
But to give you a direction:
Imho the stock ROM is the best in terms of battery and performance.
All Oreo ROMs have bugs, some just small ones, others bigger ones. Examples are camera, video recording or high battery consumption.
Also there are some big problems if you want to return to stock, losing voLTE, losing 4G or IMEI are well known in this forum.
I wouldn't flash any Oreo ROM before Lenovo releases stock Oreo, the bugs can be sorted out and there will be safe ways to return to stock if you wish.
If you still want to flash a custom ROM Aosp Extended 4.6 based on Nougat is a good one but don't forget to make a nandroid backup before you flash anything.
This is only my personal opinion, as written above to find "your" best ROM you'll have to test them.
