Brother the heat happens sometimes but if u give it a minute or two it will go down .

This happens when apps are unoptimized either for the chip or for the software.

Happened to me when I was playing Sega's crazy taxi classics the temp rose up to 63 degrees

Edit: Just check whether you have deep sleep if yes then don't mind CPU load if no then some app is working in the background.

Hey guys have been hearing great things about this rom and want to try it out. But i can't download this rom on my crappy 4g from xda server. It keeps getting stuck at 60 or 70%. Can someone upload it to Google drive or afh as i found that to be stable.

[MENTION=5075064]optimumpro[/MENTION], why are you neglecting these 2 questions? By now I've been asking you this for the 4th time. If you don't want to add LTE icon for roaming users then don't add, but you should say it at least. Adding a LTE icon for users in roaming isn't a feature request I believe, it'll only enhance the quality of the ROM. No point in avoiding the question. About the keyboard thing its really not working even after enabling in settings.

Even I was not able to download from mobile.

Then I tried to download from IDM, and never faced any issue with it. I downloaded on wifi.

What I do is right click on the direct download option and copy link address.

Then go to IDM - > Add URL

Through this method I am able to download at 2-3 mbps speed whereas from mobile I get 200-300kbps speed on same WiFi.

As was discussed already. Android default is disable hardware overlay off. Since the first release, I had changed to on, because it caused constant flickering. Before posting release 16, I switched back to On and had zero flickering. That's why I included it. I still have no flickering, but some users reported that on some apps.

Either this version is bugged or some process wrong at the time you flash the rom. I think dev would not release a rom without first testing right. [MENTION=5075064]optimumpro[/MENTION]

[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] optimumpro:
You have omitted a few other possibilities: that a person who flashed the rom is a flashaholic, doesn't know what he is doing or both.

When you flash a rom, then Gapps, Magisk, then install or restore 200+ apps, and God forbid, you are doing all this while connected to the charger, your phone gets tremendous stress, a lot more than playing the most demanding game. No wonder, you will get 60 degrees, which, by the way, is OK under stress. First, as I have said a hundred times, phones are not laptops; and even when connected to the charger, they get current from battery ONLY. So, when on charger and engaged, the battery is being charged and discharged at the same time, which not only kills the battery, but also puts unnecessary stress on CPU. Second, after flashing a new rom, system does a lot of runtime compiling and scanning, which in of itself is stress. If your SD card has 30-40 gigs of data, the phone scans everything. So, if you start installing/restoring, while scanning is going on, you are wearing CPUs.

Flashaholics: now, imagine, you flash a rom every day or several times a day: forget temperature and freezing, you will never have a stable device on any rom.

So, learn the basics and do the right thing, then you won't have reasons to complain.

P.S. Do I test my roms before posting?! Let me give you an idea: Since about May, I have had no other rom on my phone...

[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] n'wah:
It's one of the, if not the most stable ROM for this device. The iinterface is not as customizable as ResurrectionRemix/AEX, although U-Touch is insanely customizable. Battery is also pretty good, people have reported SOT of ~6.5 hrs with Gapps and ~8hrs without Gapps. I personally got ~5 hrs with Gapps and ~6.5 hrs without, so your mileage may vary. Also, the ROM's focus is skewed a bit towards privacy and security (you can see that the dev released update for the KRACK vulnerability almost immediately). The installation process is slightly complicated if you're a noob, but read the instructions carefully and you shouldn't have much trouble.
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] Mdroid2xplore:

With the latest release, I did face the screen flickering issue on opening recent apps screen initially but thought it to be because of my fault, in flashing. Thus flashed clean again and there is no screen flickering issue whatsoever and developer options are untouched.

[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] greatcoder:
Gapps is for Google Services and Google apps. If you can live without these apps, then definitely you can install ROMs without gapps.

Damn I didn't know that thanks for the new info bruh???

---------- Post added at 07:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:23 AM ----------

But I will need Gapps coz I'll be using Google play games, Gmail and all.
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] n'wah:
Fun fact! Every ROM can *work* without Gapps. In fact (and someone correct if I'm wrong) with the earliest version of Android there used to be no such thing as Gapps. When you install a ROM without Gapps, you don't get access to Google Play Services and the Play Store. So you can install apps via other sources such as F-Droid/ApkMirror.

So what happens if you wanted to use an app that required the Play Store/Play Services (like Uber/GMail/Snapchat)? Until recently, you had no choice but to flash Gapps in order to make such an app work. But now, we have an alternative to Play Services in the form of MicroG. Mind you, configuring MicroG can be a bit hard for a newbie, fortunately there is a Magisk module called NanoMod that makes it a bit easier. You can try my or [URL="https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=73462393" [MENTION=8021579]the.D[/MENTION]'s[/URL] instructions for installing it. Mind you, it's not perfect- not all apps work perfectly (some, like OlaCabs don't work at all) but if you've got the time to tinker a bit, it's very much worth it, esp. if you're privacy conscious.

EDIT: Not to mention, using MicroG instead of Gapps will definitely boost your SOT by an hour or so. [MENTION=8021579]the.D[/MENTION] got an SOT of over 8hrs on Jaguar+MicroG, iirc.
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] Sanath2017:

But there is screen flickering in between while opening and closing apps, this will vanish as kernel gets stable by time or there is any other solution?

Everything else working fast and stable as always

Guys which Gapps should I use, Micro , mini or Stock??

And I'm I supposed to flash R11 first then boot and after 2 min flash R16 with gapps and SuperSU right?? I'm coming from Stock ZUI rom
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] DivyanshuJ:
If you have tried the suggestions then you would have got the solution already.

Anyway !

Supersu app doesn't show but you can access it through typing code in dialer app - *#*#7873778#*#*

Also, regarding the screen flickering issue, go to developer options and disable h/w overlays.
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] Kham123:
Solved that SuperSU issue by dumping it and finally switching to magisk

But screen flickering is still there when I switch to recent apps

If you backed up Jaguar data, you won't have any trouble restoring it on the same rom.

Don't enable accessibility for any app (read about accessibility in post #3). That should take care of crashes in Chrome etc.

I don't think you can pass Safety net, unless you have Magisk hiding root. All custom roms are rooted whether or not you have root manager or not. So, without hiding root (by Magisk), you won't pass.

Antutu: never run it on a newly installed rom, as CPU/GPU/System do a lot of work; never run when the phone is connected to the charger; it is best to run it in Airplane mode. You could check my antutu score posted a few messages back with 142800...

If you are using stock charger, then you have a bad cable. There are thousands of downloads and offline charging works perfectly. Even before it was fixed, your phone would turn on once connected, but after about 15 seconds of stock picture it would reboot. So, if your phone is not reacting at all to being connected, it is either charger or cable.
