My personal choice is AEX 5.0 .. Though its an alpha build.. I have been using it for a week for my daily driver and it amazes me.. Very cool..
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers] dibt359:
Lel

So I would be going around the forums lying, spreading "absolute rubbish"? Um, nope.

As I said earlier, there's no way around trying out different versions and ROMs forward yourself and finding what works for you. That's the entire point of Android is having that freedom.

I have TWO bugs on 4.4, July 24 - double tap to wake is laggy sometimes and after a screen wake, the brightness scales up and down for no reason when it's set on auto. When I was on the 15th of July build, I only had the double tap lag. In my experience, 4.6 was totally unreliable, crashes, freezes and what have you.

Besides that, I can play anything lag free, I can scroll through absolutely anything as fast as I can lag free, YouTube videos load instantly, etc. And I am positive that I do get 8h+ of SOT, while playing a lot of music in the background, YouTube, Spotify and local.

The craze about being on the latest version possible is not a good thing. Doesn't different too much from the apple zombies standing in line overnight. I know people who are on KitKat. It's all very subjective to your needs. Whatever works for you, more power to you!

The only reason I am spending that much time on the forums these days is that I had issues after upgrading and I also switched to #nogapps. Besides that, I simply enjoy using my phone and that's it, don't care about versions or any of that.

Thanks [MENTION=8408687]ashiskar[/MENTION] [MENTION=8552806]Kiranbhand1[/MENTION] [MENTION=6259197]dibt359[/MENTION] for your replies. See there is no end to the debate of which ROM is better. I will do my own experiments going ahead but to start with going with popular options what most users have suggested.

Request you to help me with my other points / queries rather than suggesting specific ROMs (this is a never ending debate :)). That's why I narrowed down by choice to three ROMs ro try as I mentioned in first post. I will update it to AEX 4.4 / 4.6 and try both :)

Dibt - Is the 15th July build of AEX 4.4 as reliable as 24th July? As you mentioned it has one less bug, shall I go with the 15th July build?

So, Jaguar Kernel can be installed later after installing the ROM right? Does kernel change / installation needs any kind of data reset etc?

So, I am thinking of flashing AEC rom on stock kernel itself and use it for few days and then depending on observations, will decide whether or not to try jaguar kernel. I guess, we can come back to stock kernel right if needed?

What about Camera Blobs? someone mentioned earlier in this thread. What are these Camera blobs and do I need to install it?

Any other must have mod? - Recent Swypo, ad remover, greenify, aggerisve doze etc? Are all these installed via Magisk?

[MENTION=8552806]Kiranbhand1[/MENTION] - As you suggested: " flash AEX 4.6 ROM + Gapps+Magisk 14.3" .. Any dependency on version of Magisk depending on ROMs?

[MENTION=6245568]Omkar Modgi[/MENTION] - You suggested to root using Super SU for AOSGP .. Can we not use Magisk there too? Are you using any other mods with your setup for audio boost etc?
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers] Kiranbhand1:
No dependency.

Here you go.

+ Naptime or forcedoze from your preferred app market.

What you should do is check out different versions the different builds and see what works for you. Not everyone complains about AEX 4.6 or 5; and 4.4 seems to not work for some. Try them for yourself.

I wouldn't bother with custom kernels.

--------

Drained my battery - Accu battery reports 8h 47m of sot.
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers] saurav_k:
Thanks. SOT alone is not a clear indicator of battery life.

Depends how much percentage of battery other resources than screen itself has consumed. If you see the attached screenshot with 41% battery left, the SOT will look very decent. This is in stock nougat 2.5.104

Reason - most of this time the usage was mild - YouTube videos, standby, 10-15 mins gaming, browsing (XDA). Very less call time, only one sim, mobile data disabled, no large downloads using WiFi.

If I play intensive games or download large files with WiFi, battery drains very fast.
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers] saurav_k:
1. Can anyone give details about canera blobs. What are these and how to flash ?

2. Can I come back to stock kernel if I install Jaguar kernel? If yes, how?
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers] ashiskar:
1) Unlock boot loader after connecting to PC-> Push twrp in recovery--> Go into recovery--> Copy all files like AEX 4.6, Nano or above Gapps, Magisk, HeliOx august Beta build. Now go to install --> 1st file should be RON, 2nd Gapps, then magisk then flash all.. I recommend to boot for the first time and then flash kernel after 1st boot up.

2) For VOLTE, just put in 1st sim slot(Recommended as Jio has better exp in sim 1). Just enable mobile data via Jio. Rest all taken care by system.

3) Jaguar first should be 11 then boot up. after 5 mins restart to recovery and then flash latest build with gapps. Pls note Jaguar does not have any customization. So, if you are okay with it, u can proceed. Its one of the best ROM i have ever used when stability and snappiness come into play.

4) Which version of AOSGP ROM is stable and can be installed and with which version of Jaguar kernel? -- Not used. So cant really tell.

5) On AEX 4.6, i recommend not to use any mod. the speaker is loud enough.

6) Baseband is not related to ROM. Even if ROM changes, baseband doesnt. The best baseband is already the ZUI's. As you flashed AEX above ZUI after unlocking BL, baseband remains same. Animation fluctuations does not mean network fluctuates. Pls note dont change baseband if u r really not facing any issue. Else, it may break ur gps or modems etc.

7) Root - AEX not pre-rooted.

8) Always recommend to stick to Ext4. All ROMs support that.

I still believe AEX 5.0 is a good choice now as the future updates will keep you safe from KRACK. If you want to flash others, u can also check the combination of AEX 4.6+HeliOX kernel. But remember, it saves u from Blueborn only not from WPA vulnerability.

Thanks & Cheers !
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers] saurav_k:
Thanks. Point 3 - I was asking about Jaguar Kernel only and not ROM.

Want to use nougat for now. So will try AEX 5.0 sometime later.

I am not too worried about latest updates, security etc. Good stable daily driver ROM is preferable. Will try both aex 4.4 and 4.6

5. So the speaker louder than stock ROM? Coz in stock ROM both speaker and earphone volumes are not satisfactory to me
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers] optimumpro:
Forgive me, but you simply have no idea what you are talking about. One may say fewer custom features, but to claim no "any customization" is simply nonsense. Not only Jaguar has tonnes of features, but it also has ones that no other rom does, such as 26 options for utouch and vurtual buttons, for example. I am not even talking about security. One just needs to read the OP for description.

[MENTION=4219805]saurav_k[/MENTION]:

You really did your homework, you know what you want, which is great. May I ask why didn't you consider ZUI 3.1 stock ROM as a possibility?

As of others, can you please compare AEX 4.x with ZUI 3.1, pro et contra?

Right now, I'm on Chinese ZUI 2.5 and would like to try something new. ;)
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers] saurav_k:
Even if zui was bugfree I would not use it. I am allergic to these skinned UIs like miui, zui etc. Biggest turn off for zui - non expandable notifications and pathetic notification tray.

I am still in stock 2.5.104. gathering the required knowledge and info and waiting for some free time to flash custom roms and other mods etc. Probably by next weekend.
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers] n'wah:
Did you get 8+hrs of SOT with Gapps+AEX 4.4?

Quite a few people (including me) have got 8+ hrs without Gapps on a lot of ROMs, but I've seen very few claim such a high SOT with Gapps.

Just to inform the people subscribed to this thread or searching information, someone tested MHL on Z Play and it worked. Discussion I would recommend there.

so... is this real or not? This is a simple mhl adapter to micro usb and not to type c. If we just using a micro usb to type c converter you said it will work? Can you post a picture connected to your tv please?
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] stevejc:
Just to confirm that is working on my Moto Z Play ;)

I have an USB-C to USB (3.1 full format).

This cable is connected to my smartphone and to the mhl adapter. This one is pluged to power with one USB and to the TV with the HDMI.

Just need to have adb debugging on and this is plug and play without any lag.

Can you PLEASE post a photo proving this? Mine is not working. And i cant found anything on youtube proving that moto z play have hdmi output...

It supports HDMI out but only from the pins with some modomod future gadget? Or with some special maded cable for moto z play only?

[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] stevejc:
More info :

You need to power the adapter with a charger (5V 1A), with my TV 's USB port it's not working.

You need to have in developper options, USB debugging ON and accept the connection the first time on your phone.

There is no video with Apps which have "HDCP" video copyrights protection like Netflix

But games and video play well (1080p)

cheers

You can also use the application EZCast

With EZCast, you need to set on USB tethering.

This will permit you to cast video, youtube or music on the TV and not on your phone.

But you can also mirror your phone with this application too.

This application can also update the firmware of the plug.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] nectons@gmail.com:
If it was real at this video you are posting it will not have any lag. It have 1 second at least lag. This is because you are doing wireless display mirroring and not with hdmi. It is a good joke but still its a joke. Sorry.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] stevejc:
Think what you want, but it' not wireless and it hasn't lag at all.

If you don't believe me it's your problem. But buy this cable and try by yourself and return back here to post your results. But please stop saying it's fake without testing it.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] wanderson_tnt:
By the descriptions, we can see that this adptador is compatible also with galaxy s6 s7, but I already had a s6 and it does not have compatibility with MHL, I bought several cables and none worked, what I can see is that this adptador works like a bridge USB, which transfers the image not by MHL but by a USB link similar to using mirroring via usb on the computer, so it is necessary to activate the USB debugging ... This is very good because it is comptaviel with any android that does not have support The MHL ... Very good !!

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LukeCodes:
Hey everyone, thanks for your help. :)

So I recently bought a SM-G900V that was originally used on a Verizon plan. It was factory unlocked and sent to me. I have been using it on the AT&T network through Cricket for about two years. Recently I decided to add a data plan to my phone, and I researched and found I have to add a custom APN profile for it to work with the AT&T network. I discovered that the original Verizon APN is locked, and I cannot add any other options or change the original.

I researched for a bit and found that I can change the settings and add a new APN after I root my phone. I have previously owned Nexus 4 and 5 phones, so I have had experience in this subject. However, I didn't realize what a task this would become. I have tried towelroot (with all possible modstrings), kingroot, and multiple other sources, but all say that my phone is not supported.

Do you have any suggestions? This is very frustrating as my Nexus phones were VERY easy to root in comparison.

Thanks, Luke
