Edit 2:
Well can't say that the Android OS battery hog issue has been totally fixed. Android OS still shows a lot of usage. Android System process on other hand seems to have gotten down.
Battery @ 87% (with Juice Defender running)
Apparently the Android OS Battery issue is a problem caused by Samsungs Drivers which hog the CPU even while the device is in standby mode.

Sorry. You are absolutely correct. I was just excited, you know.
Guys please take your time and flash it.

OS is running at 2% and it now tells you the battery charge on the lock screen. Lock screen lag is also gone.

It's a shame OnePlus and Cyanogen part ways, although Cyanogen seems to be the bad guy.. These guy originated from the custom rom community didn't they? When money enters the game...
The proposed Lollipop rom seems mostly vanilla 5.0 (and not 5.0.2), let's hope it's stable and OnePlus doesn't go the Oppo way...

nobody needs cm anyway.

Any new radio or firmware?
I'm sure some will dissect to find out.

To anyone thinking about flashing it
I flashed it and get no data and wont connect to wifi. Also the fastboot has been changed and is chinese now. So for me at least I am unable to use it at all on the 64gb international. Think im gonna push my recovery back onto the phone and go back to CM11s.
Edit: Manually put in APN's for ATT LTE and getting 4g icon but no LTE icon, didnt get GApps installed so dont have speedtest installed to verify speed. Still unable to get Wifi to work. however though which is a must for me.

Gigantic piece of crap ROM. You guys say no one needs CM but ask those lame developers from Oneplus where they got their build tree. They are building Cyanogen almost stock stripping out many features, and worst, the crappy rom messes up twrp and fastboot.
If Cyanogen stops providing support for the OPO the device will turn into crap.

Have you got any evidence for that?
This appears to be a pure aosp build using caf code.
The features aren't stripped out, it's aosp. Is how it comes, bear boned to be built upon.

You are a bit extreme, but you're right. My fav feature of this phone was 11S out of the box.

[Opinion][Guide][Tweaks] My experience with android nought in Moto G 2014 (Ressurecti

Hello guys.. So i have been using moto g 2014 model for a couple of months now and i have been absolutely liking this phone.. Here is my experience with different roms.. I have tried different roms like cyanogemod 13 and dirty unicorns etc in the marshmallow side and when lineage os 14.1 came out i just switched to it.. It was an awesome rom but i was missing a lot of features that i was getting through xposed and all.. So i started thinking of changing the rom.. And after a couple of hours of research i decided to go with Ressurection remix.. I was very happy with the performance and the battery backup of the rom and then i thought of custom kernel and flashed the deciphier kernel and is working absolutely fantastic with this rom.. The kernel helped me tune the phone the way i wanted and also improoved the performance as well as the battery backup.. I also made a small swap file in so that i can get a little bit more performance out of the phone.. I use Roehsoft ram expander and is working great.. Then also i have installed Substratum and also a theme named art.. Its also working fine for me.. The phone is working absolutely fantastic and without any major bugs... Though, feel free to tell me your suggestions about other roms and kernels as am interested in checking other roms and kernels.. Thankss..

ROM Recommendations? Bad luck so far...

Hi All,
So I have tried over the past couple of months - LOS, RR, SkyDragon and RR.
I was using LOS at the very beginning, the battery was way worse than expected. So far RR was my favorite but I can no longer cope with the constant network/signal issue (NOT MY WIFI) It is absolutely terrible.
The WiFi disconnects with ? - the sim ejects (only one) - and the general signal is piss poor. The battery however is top notch. Oh and any picture taken with stock camera has big green lines running down them.
I know no ROM will be perfect but some must be better than most.
Or am I - have I done something wrong (I am a hardcore techie/Cyber guy) So I like to think i know my stuff. Maybe I am missing a network file or something?
My current ROM is attached.
http://bit.ly/2sAcySB

Are you clean flashing these ROMs? I've run LOS and RR (both official and unofficial) without any issues whatsoever. Running unofficial RR currently as my daily driver with no network or wifi drops. Try flashing the OOS 3.5.8 firmware (not the full ROM, just the firmware, link is in my signature), and then try to clean flash a ROM of your choice. Use the nano OpenGapps package (this will avoid installing Google Contacts, which is known to cause network drops).

Hi, Yeah I always fully wipe and do clean installs.. But not for the OTA updates (obviously)
Upon researching I have seen the Google Contacts thing mentioned a few times. I will give that a go. Thanks

Morning mate - so I did all of the above - to the letter. SAME PROBLEM
So, I will be on a WiFi call and after a couple of mins the connection will go - I move the phone away from my face and see crosses 'X' through WiFi and both sims - then it all comes back on... It's like all my signal(s) timeout or something. It really is frustrating but I DO NOT want to revert to stock.
Any ideas?
The pics didn't work last time - so here's the link - http://bit.ly/2sAcySB

Sounds like you should take a look at paranoid android as they focus on stability, but they are still testing the oneplus 2 android 7 version so you'll have to wait a little if you want android 7.

I used to switch between ROMs because I wasn't satisfied, but I have settled for AospExtended. The offscreen gestures are still there and I like the customizability, especially being able to make the notifications menu have a blurred background. The latest version is 7.1.2.

Can`t pull down status bar

Hey guys,
as the title suggests, sometimes I cannot pull down the status bar in order to view notifications or turn on/off wi-fi, reading mode and so on. I couldn`t recognize a particular pattern when this will happen and it could (as of my knowledge) only be resolved by rebooting the phone, which kinda sucks. I`m on stock (Global Stable 10.3.6.0) with Magisk and unlocked bootloader, the last updates didn`t do nothing for me.
I wasn`t able to find anyone with the same issue on- or offline, so if anyone has a suggestion for me, that would be great.
Had similar issues with the RN5pro, but on a far less daily basis. Now my gf has the phone and it seems to have disappeared...

Maybe the rom's fault, try to flash xiaomi.eu developers rom, everything might be resolved there for you..

Thanks for the quick reply. Is it safe to flash the eu ROM regarding ARP? I bricked my RN5 by flashing an earlier eu ROM than I had on the device before. Didn't look into it further in order to avoid this issue...
Edit: Went to the xiaomi.eu page and found out that they are currently offering MIUI 10.5. So I guess I should be safe by flashing over 10.3.6. Any precautions for flashing? Like do I have to wipe data and so on?

Go here and read the latest release' thread, and I can confirm to you that flashing these roms in this site is totally safe and doesn't have anything to do with ARP because they are an updated roms and not old and abandoned..

I am having that very same issue, but this started with the MIUI global 11.0.4 Stable release. I found out that this happens when I am watching a video on netflix or any app that goes in full screen, and I try to pull down the status bar to adjust brightness, check notifications, etc. It changes the color and I am not able to pull it down anymore.
Did you find a way to fix this? Do note that this never happened in the previous version of MIUI that I had, 10.x.x (not sure now which specific version was).

Nope, sorry. To be honest, I had given up and that is exactly when the issue started to slowly disappear. It had nothing to do with the latest updates - I just stopped caring about it and I now sometimes get through the week without one single appearance. Unfortunately for you that's the best advice I can give

Try this.
I found a spot where The top is available check image and tell me If it works.

Same issue here
Also with MIUI 11.0.4

Hi everyone, I've started experiencing this issue after MIUI 11 update. I've just found a way to temporarily fix it: you have to go on "hide notch" in phone settings and switch between "hide and move bar" and one of the other two. Then you can switch back and the bar will work again. Actually it's a way to restart it. I hope they'll fix this soon though.
