Don't know if this is the right thread but I am looking for a ROM recommendation. Previously I had a Moto X 2014 with this CM14 ROM. I also had CM Dark and the Pixel UI installed (so OMS support). I don't want the UI to be drastically changed out of the box, I rather do it myself. To add one extra layer, I would like frequent updates and to be presently be based on at least 7.1. :rolleyes:

What ROM for the 6P will get me closest to that?

BTW from a Moto X 2014... this is a huge upgrade hardware wise.
[Nexus 6P General] DEVILOPS 007:
If you want speed, smoothness, glass, breakneck speeds, great battery life, there really is one only choice.

Uber rom by Chad and faster kernel by Chad.

Why?

On f2fs, (trust me, you want f2fs) I have yet to find kernel or ROM combination that beats this.

Its the only rom that's built with GCC 6.3.1, and the only rom built with clang 3.9.1. Coupled with f2fs, this rom FLIES.

I have flashed every single ROM on this forum and then some, and I'm telling you this is the best combination you can possibly hope for:

This was a quote from [MENTION=737043]train[/MENTION]NanpaMaster and he is right as I am on it too. It almost has daily updates and normally does.
[Nexus 6P General] seabro01:
I'd recommend Dirty Unicorns 7.1.1. Gets updated frequently, (Rc, weekly and official builds) supports substratum and UI isn't that much different from stock.
[Nexus 6P General] pedroqnd:
Do you have a detailed guide of "how to change N6P to F2FS, I appreciate if give me some help on that, By the way try PN with flash kernel from this link and you'll be surprise, I imagine that in F2FS this PN will fly.

The easiest way to get back to complete stock I think is to side load the OTA package through adb sideboard in stock or custom recovery. Or you could always download the program nexus root toolkit by wugfresh. That program saved me so many times until I was more experienced.

---------- Post added at 10:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:54 AM ----------

I honestly haven't seen any. The rom isn't that well known tbh. Not many people just come across it as it isn't on the Xda or anywhere really.

---------- Post added at 10:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:55 AM ----------

Yeah, I was gonna say follow the flash's guide

---------- Post added at 10:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:56 AM ----------

This is my explanation but I would follow the flash's explanation.

F2fs increases io performance which means your phone generally works faster. Apps will open faster and run smoother and it is 100% worth switching to f2fs. You need the flash modified twrp as official twrp doesn't support f2fs. You should change the data and cache to f2fs. Changing data wipes data And internal storage so move all important files to an external storage device. To change to it flash his twrp and go to wipe, advanced wipe, check data and tap change file system and choose f2fs. Do the same for cache. When recording a nandroid backup on f2fs make sure you go settings and tick use - r instead of formatting and then select restore and choose your backup. Then choose options and enable md5 verification and from there restore your nandroid backup and that's it. Pretty simple once you got it down and it is a one time thing so you don't need to repeat after flashing new roms and updates. Make sure you don't change system as there is basically no point and you would have to keep changing the file system and wiping after every update and rom flash. Hope this helps, good luck. :)

I have something to admit yáll.

I went iphone 6s+ after being taunted overseas by my brother for a month

I hate it, it has been the worst mistake ever.

So I busted out my old 6p, did the OTAś all the way to february security update and vendor update.

Then rooted recovery etc.

Now i dont know which ROM to run, i did install Benzo but itś buggy and slow.

What rom\kernel package is the best? I prefer OMS and I am a minimalist dont need a massive feature list

You'll probably like Chad's Uber if you want a minimal ROM that fast with good battery life.
[Nexus 6P General] leondestiny:
i once tried the MM based rom from them before very clean minimalistic, do their Nougat builds work along with Flash kernel + exkm ? because if that works and also Substratum, then i will switch over to uberstock for a while to test out stablity and battery life.

i have been using PureNexus for the last month and it has been superb with performance and battery life, very snappy rare glitches and never a random reboot, and i also get around 6 hours SoT everytime, or i can get about 4-5hours SoT easily with 1day standby/idle time.

So I've stuck with MM because of xposed. Now Im hearing xposed might not be around for a year and Im itchin to flash N (mostly because of this thread)

I figure the only modules I can't live without are YT Adaway & background playback.

Here's where I MIGHT find some help...has anyone had experience modifying apks?

My early thoughts are I can mod the YouTube app itself to remove ads and get it to play in the background. Problem is Im not 100% sure what that'll entail (write protection? Beyond my skill level?) Early Google searches hasn't really been fruitful. So if anyone has experience here or can just point me in the right direction...think itd be beneficial to a lot of users who visit this thread.

***btw I'm aware of YT Red but think its a rip off (just my opinion) $9.99 a month for something that probably should be $3 tops to remove ads, and background playback which honestly should be a freebie...

[Nexus 6P General] DEVILOPS 007:
Hi guys I'm just sharing something as many people come across this problem. If you dirty flash from a rom to a newer build that uses a newer vendor image so the January to February such as what I just did on Chad's uber then you are likely going to get a message on boot up saying there is an internal problem because the build.prop in vendor/etc has not got the right values as the vendor has changed. To fix it just go to this link and flash the file after downloading it. It works universally on any rom and I personally just used it. I'm just putting it out there as many people come across this problem and clean flash and flash all stock images and then restore data nandroid. I'm just letting you guys know to spread the word as it is the that well known. So again, if you get the error then download, flash and it is sorted as it writes a new build.prop file in vendor/etc. Download it from here. Credit goes to the mod author obviously.
