For third party apps, yes. I use Substratum themes on stock Nougat in that capacity.

What about the ROM itself (Android system, SystemUI, Settings, and bundled apps). Can you do that? If so, screenshots please.

[MENTION=6046143]marcdw[/MENTION] [MENTION=4889850]Kingo64[/MENTION] I'm talking about stock Oreo. It is AOSP, Nougat is MiFavor. It is absurd to compare the two.

Roger that [MENTION=5564873]WesTD[/MENTION].

I haven't tried the Oreo stock so wasn't sure of its interface. Didn't know it was AOSP. So yes it would be absurd to compare if I knew that already. What's absurd is that I didn't know. LOL.

Thanks for clarifying.

Yup, you need to be running Magisk and download the Substratum Systemless module, then it works fine.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] lllGurulll:
OK, I've managed to get myself into a pickle here. I decided to try the Oreo build that Nfound put up for download. Everything worked fine but I decided I wanted to come back to lineage. Now, before upgrading to oreo I did make a system backup of my lineage build. When I decided to go back to lineage, I was doing it from the backup I made. Everything seemed to go fine until I got a message saying that it was unable to decrypt my backup. I didn't select encryption or set any passwords so I'm confused how it got here. Anyway, when that error came up it stated I would need to do a system wipe and reinstall. When I rebooted to go into recovery the phone never started back up. Now all I get is my power light doing 2 red blinks followed by on half blink and then nothing happens. Each time I try to power it on it does this. I can't seem to get into recovery or DFu. Not sure where everything went wrong but I need some help trying to get this out of the brick it has become.

Well, since it looks like ZTE is pretty much done and the second year of my warranty will be worthless, I'm back on lineage.

Ok really odd problem here. When somebody calls me the phone ui doesn't come up so I have no way to answer the call. I've wiped dalvik as well as wiping out for another clean install and nothing is fixing this. Not being able to answer the phone is a pretty major problem. Help please

Edit

Ui also won't come up when I call someone. I can dial out but the in call ui doesn't so I can't hang up or utilize the dialer [MENTION=4911249]Unjustified Dev[/MENTION]

I've tried both the 6/20 and 6/13 versions and both won't pop up the ui in call. I've gone back to 06/06 and now it works again but now I'm also on an older security file from google.

LOVE THIS ROM

If you are on the fence about installing a rom, do it!

I have always wanted LineageOS but could never really trust it for stability. The warranty is up on my phone so I went ahead and tried it.

Root your phone with the easy root method. Imstall twrp with the LineageOS instructions. Install the prerquisites from the first post here. Install LineageOS version 20180620. I'm on it and I've begun to trust it more than stock.

Lastly, get Magisk. Have it fix the Android secure thing. Check to hide the play store and Google play. And any other root sensitive apps like Uverse. It works PERFECTLY at hiding root.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for this.

Worked out my previous issue by not using a system backup and installing everything manually.

[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] lllGurulll:
I could really use some help with the in call issue. It acts as if it is jumping to speaker phone in calls all the time and when it does I can't turn the volume down. Also, the speaker phone icon isn't highlighted. I click the speakerphone icon and it highlights and gets even louder.

I've done a fresh install three times and this issue is not going away for me. I don't know if this thread is dead for help issues but I really need some input on this issue.

I didn't test right after I installed. I installed, then rooted with LOS's root, then unrooted, and it would not work. I then rooted with Magisk and it finally worked. I couldn't tell you if it works with a clean install, but I don't think so. I think you have to Magisk it.

I've only used Skype but when I use that, rarely, I am using it with the speakerphone anyway as I only use that for video calls. I never use headphones on calls, but I'll try it to see what happens.

Just tried with a headset and it's loud all the time. Won't let me turn the volume lower at all. Already at lowest in call setting.

It's so frustrating because I love this build but the in call volume issue is making it nearly impossible to stick with it. Would prefer not having to return to stock again if this can be resolved.

I fail to understand how a rom with LOS as the base is more stable than the base itself :rolleyes:
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] bkores:
AEX is not based on LOS, it is based on AOSP, hence the name AospExtended.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] sauerkraut17:
Um, LOS is AOSP as well. Last time I checked, AEX uses LOS as base. Hence why the device list is basically identical and almost every thread for AEX lists or gives thanks to LOS. Most AOSP roms are lineage (previously CM) based...

AEX is AOSP + customization

LOS is AOSP
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] bkores:
AEX may use commits from LOS but it is NOT based on it. It says so on their website (see screenshot). LOS is based on AOSP, but it also has a huge amount of its own code on top of it and is notoriously not completely stable.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] sauerkraut17:
Pretty darn sure NFound used OrdenKrieger's entire LOS 15 tree to put together AEX for the Axon 7 (search and you'll find one of them saying this)......
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] bkores:
OrdenKrieger's tree is the B12 source that ZTE gave him, not Lineage. He built LOS 15 based on the B12 source.

Even if you don't believe me, test it yourself. AEX is much more stable for me than LOS ever was.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] sauerkraut17:
I have tested it and no thanks, I prefer a clean rom that inst a mismatch of features (i'll never use) taken from everything else and shoved into one (can you really even call that AOSP anymore? if so I guess Samsung Experience is nothing more than Samsung's very own AOSP extended).

Care to explain why AEX for the Axon 7 has the call bug which was introduced by LOS team when they made stereo work. I mean seriously, its not just a coincidence that AEX shares the same LOS bug unless one is using the other as its base.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] bkores:
I don't have the call bug on AEX or LOS 15.1, but I did have it on LOS 14.1. I haven't seen anyone complain about this in the AEX thread for the Oreo version.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] sauerkraut17:
Thats because its fixed in Oreo; AEX that was based on Nougat had the exact same issue as LOS. If it was bootstack, don't you think it would have affected the I dunno official rom?
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] bkores:
AFAIK, it did affect the official ROM. I remember there were people complaining about it on the ZTE forums.

Thanks for the answer.

Being that ZTE Builds(B09 or B12..ect.) are not relevant how would I go about trying different ROMS that say they are made for a B12 Build or what not?

[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] gld59:
The other ROMs might be built *from* particular ZTE builds, but are not "for" them. They don't run on the ZTE version of Android itself which may currently be on your phone, they *replace* it.

There would be other bits and pieces included in/with the official ZTE builds, however, which those other ROMs don't replace. The most important one I can think of is the radio / baseband module - as a general rule I'd be inclined to update (if necessary) to the latest ZTE build for your country, before changing from a ZTE build to another ROM.

You can try installing the Oreo modem referenced in the LineageOS 15.1 thread. Even the bootstack as well. I just did so myself so I wouldn't be lying to you.

The only difference you will have to do is there is a safety check in the LineageOS installer zip that confirms the trustzone version presently in your device to make sure it is at the version they suggest in the respective thread.

Consequently, the over the air updates can't work and to update each time a new 14.1 weekly is released you will need to edit the update script file in the zip at meta-inf/com/Google/Android and delete the line that says assert(axon7.verify_trustzone("TZ.BF.4.0.1-....

Then pack the zip back up and install. If you don't the zip will fail to install because of the check it performs.

Already on Nonstock ROM

Thank you for the information some is enlightening. I should apologize as I did not mention that I am already using a "not stock" ZTE/MiUI build (currently on LOS 14.1) What I'm not certain of is what my options are toward another custom ROM when I no longer show a designated Build (as in B12, B25...ect.) These are not shown on my device with the current Official LOS 14.1 build installed. As mentioned, I am curious, but cautious. Reading through some of the other Custom Rom threads, I see where you can make a mistake and have less than 100% use of your device. (I've read too many pitfalls to mention) . I am considering taking the leap toward an Oreo based Rom, as there are quite a few that already look amazing (Nfound, Havoc, AEX or even LOS 15. I am just trying to ensure that I land on my feet with a non-bricked device. Would I have to somehow flash back to a Stock setup(which I am unsure of which one mine would be, since I purchased this device BL/Unlocked, Rooted and LOS 14.1 on it) before taking on the challenge of a different Custom ROM. Thanks again for the insight. Thank you to all who contribute to helping the lesser informed. I am able to do updates of Nightly's without cringing too much now, because of the help here.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] parmar.saab:
Thanks for the detailed response. But I was hoping for a Nougat based modem as this process will complicate the update process.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] jawz101:
The latest Nougat is the one in the original post, I believe. If I recall, I don't think it changed among the few stock OTA updates and we never really kept a good list of all of them as they were released. I tried on another thread but it wasn't really a popular thread.

Regardless, you could try just updating the modem and it probably won't require that fiddling with the update zips. I just don't know if you have to have both to play well. I'd just download both the Nougat and Oreo modems and bootloaders (4 files total) and just install the Oreo modem. If things don't boot up you can just switch back to the Nougat one. Regardless, you'd at least have both sets on your sdcard to work with. Personally, I've kept both sets and a copy of both LineageOS 14 and 15, along with a copy of each opengapps on my sdcard to mess around with.

No, you don't have to go back to stock. I can't help with any of the details related to other ROMs, but any you flash just replaces the one that's already there - it doesn't matter which one that is.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Infy_AsiX:
One reason I'm dual booting to LOS14.1 is for fully working Daydream, that functions better than stock in fact.

The build.prop needs a change for ro.product.device=axon7 to ailsa_ii to not distort the aspect ratio. Also LiveDisplay needs to be disabled and kept off from booting to not stutter on one eye, this is actually like stock here. That includes my preferred night mode KCAL apps such as Lux Auto Brightness and CF.lumen. Though interestingly adjusting KCAL with Kernel Adiutor manually doesn't cause the issue.

The Display settings VR Reduce blur does turn on low persistence mode. I haven't used stock in a long time but I remember it flickered more significantly in low persistence mode. When Daydream first enables it flickers heavily like stock did, but after a second or so it sets to a better level. The improved level looks like the screen dims only a little without noticeably flickering, striking a good balance. It's evidently working by comparing results to the Reduce flicker setting which seems to have no low persistence at all and blurs like mad.

The device doesn't set into the sustained performance mode that locks all cores to 1.2GHz like on stock. Which is actually my preference, to allow the user to set a custom value or just uses default thermal throttling. Stock was pretty abysmal that after sustained performance mode enabled, it would be stuck unable to disable except by reboot.

All in all it works really well. Hopefully this neat feature makes it way to O and beyond one day. According to some comments apparently fixing the ro.product.device on recent AEX-O has it working except for low persistence mode. I'm still on B32 RR-O for my primary ROM and those aforementioned changes doesn't fix the aspect ratio distortion, while not tracking properly either.
