Hi all,

Looked around forum but can't find up to date recommendations...

I'm looking to take the plunge into custom, non-stock-based roms and I was wondering if anyone could recommend a good ROM that is totally bug free, preferably Nougat?

Thanks in advance :highfive:

Totally bug free?
[Xperia Z2 General] Samir2298:
no rom in any phone is "totally bug free"
[Xperia Z2 General] Chronic2k13:
Not even stock lol
[Xperia Z2 General] tooplanx:
I beg to differ!

What I mean is: a ROM that is as stable as and has same functionality as the stock ROM ( though I am aware that I lose DRM features with UB).
[Xperia Z2 General] raminta:
Carbon rom is good for you and its the most updated

But all of nought roms almost share same bugs that some users reports

I myself didn't have a single problem using Carbon,LOS,RR

but as i said carbon is the most updated

What happened to the LineageOS ROM?

Anyone know?
[Xperia Z2 General] GuestK0099:
It was discontinued , you can either switch to carbon or rr

nope, you can still use extistienz
[Xperia Z2 General] MWPau:
Well, yeah, but why?

It's rather odd it disappeared with no notice, the thread closed, and the image files removed.

Almost as if something nasty was happening behind the scenes :eek:

Im still using the latest version of it, and i really have no reason to change since it works great.

But im left wondering if i should change because they may be something nefarious in the code or something similar?
[Xperia Z2 General] Cluey:
I've been pondering the same thing.

Currently I'm on the 23.5.A.1.291 version, it works but is vulnerable to some of the exploits which have surfaced since that was built by Sony.

I use the Sony SBH54 bluetooth headset with it, if I go for a custom ROM I suspect I might have some problems with it. It mostly works now but isn't bug free by any stretch of the imagination, it will lose connection and reconnect as it pleases. Most irritating.

If I go down the unlocked bootloader path I'll lose the DRM _stuff_ for the camera but I've not got a good idea of how much difference that makes.

I've not run a custom ROM on my main phone, always on tablets and experimental things and none of them are Sony with it's extra quirks, I'm thinking the TA partition here.

How many of you use non-stock on your primary devices?

What problems do you encounter?

On my tablet I've lost data a few times as I've tried something which didn't work, I don't want that to happen on my phone!

[Honor 6, 6 Plus Android Development] fxsheep:
Since I posted a request to make Dual Boot Patcher Support honor 6 as an issue on github but no response,I'm here to post a tutorial to make the dual boot patcher "unofficially support" our device.

Then we can install two roms on our phone,and switch between them like installing two Windows systems on a PC.

This just support switching between systems based on the same Android version,and I have only tested on honor 6.

You need to have a rooted&fully unlocked phone.

I'm not responsible to any consequences .

We need to download and install dual boot patcher app first.

Second download this https://drive.google.com/uc?id=0Byw7MVzb0VBXOUtUTUR1MUF2YzA&export=download

And rename it to devices.json

Open Dual Boot Patcher app once, then go to settings,force stop the dual boot patcher.

Install es file manager or root explorer or any root file manager you like.

Then go to /data/data/com.github.chenxiaolong.dualbootpatcher/files/data-xxx(only one folder like this)

Replace the devices.json file to with your downloaded file and set permission to rwxrwxrwx.

Open Dual Boot Patcher app again,then it will identify honor 6.Then open file manager and go to /sdcard/multiboot. Create a new folder "primary".Then backup your current system's boot partition with Rashr . Get the boot.img and put it into the primary folder.

Open dual boot patcher,swipe from left to right, click rom,then click the three dots on the right of primary .And then click "update ramdisk".

Then reboot.Now you will get a working Dual Boot Patcher app.

If you want to install a second rom, you need to patch it in the main menu.After install ,you have to extract the boot.img from the zip and go to /sdcard/multiboot/data-slot-xxx(the rom name you specified)and put the boot.img in it. Then click update ramdisk on your target rom on dual boot patcher like the primary rom.Then you will be able to switch to the second rom and enjoy. If you want to switch back you need to install dual boot patcher on the second rom and replace the devices.json file.

Enjoy switching between the emui&miui&aosp!:)
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Android Development] Polaris_mile:
failed to update ramdisk

I was failed when I cilck "update ramdisk" after I put the boot.img into the primary folder.help
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Android Development] fxsheep:
This may happen sometimes.Try to patch a file.If patching don't work, follow the steps again.This needs trying and luck since it's not officially supported.Be sure you're on emui4.0 firmware or your phone will be hard bricked.

[Lenovo P2 Questions & Answers] eried1:
Since Lenovo P2 is one big power source I have found out that I rarely have to charge the battery to 100%. Often I find 80% sufficient, but if you only charge to this level battery stats won't reset. I think the lowest you can charge while battery stats still resets is 90%. I have tried the adb shell dumpsys batterystats --reset without success (rooted with Magisk). Magisk have previously had problems so it could be a reason. It could also be due to the stock rom/kernel not supporting this.

My question is simply: Has anyone successfully resetted battery stats with the dumpsys command? (which I believe is the only way doing it manually)

3.02 has older softwares ... I can understand that ...etc

the new VodaPhone ROM is lots slower even though it is "newer" I did lots of testing and this is the fastest ROM to date. I will post screen shots soon as I have been cooking something new using this base :) If it works out well I think you all will like it!

the reboot bug is a small issue that is worth having for what you get with this rom :) After using KaiserTweak or Shaps tool and ajdusting the cache sizes it flys!!

what would you recommend Austinsnyc

Ive experimented with the cache here and there and have never really ran the necessary tests to see which combination delivers the best results. Your expertise would be much appreciated.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] austinsnyc:

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] AllTheWay:
Austinsnyc which application do you prefer to use when setting the cache to highest settings. Schap's or KaiserTweak or does it really matter because they are both adjusting the registry.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] austinsnyc:
personally i use regedit and adjust them myself but if i was going to use one it would be shaps advanced config :)

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] austinsnyc:
yes it is fixable and thats what I am going to do on the next release. its pretty simple in fact :)

the reg keys that you need to adjust are

HKLM\System\StorageManager\Filters\fsreplxfilt\ReplStoreCacheSize

HKLM\System\StorageManager\FATFS\CacheSize

HKLM\System\GDI\GLYPHCACHE\limit

I plan on taking all the new apps such as thoughs used in dutty's but also the whole point of my roms is to keep them clean with high storage and super speed :) so i will only keep the basics and i also like the joined MMS/SMS so that will be staying!! It will be a nice speedy rom with lots of rom for your own fav apps and ofcourse lots of games in the games folder the rom last rom i posted has bubble breaker, chess, hearts, rubiks, solitare :)

If someone wouldn't mind running some benchmarks on this rom I am interested to see how it compares to the others that have been cooked up.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] ionutz6:
with regards to games, one interesting and addictive little one i found in Alex's Home ROM and i suggest you use it in your as well, if you like.

http://dopewarsppc.sourceforge.net/ - it is a freeware app.

this is just a personal opinion. other than that, im using you ROM now, after testing all other ROMs to date. I was really trying to settle down and stick to one ROM since i got tired of all the after-flash work. and now you come up and say your new one comes tonite... :)

i noticed in this one, as well as in other wm6.1 roms that sometimes there is a problem entering the Phone screen and this is really bad, you cannot use the phone app at all. i just hope we will get rid of this in next releases.

thanks,

ionutz
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] austinsnyc:
whats the issue entering the phone screen as I have never had a problem. Maybe its a 3rd party app you installed? does it happen right after a hard reset still?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] ionutz6:
well, i didnt have the chance to install any 3rd party apps, i just installed the BT handsfree, a plantronics 665 device. and smb was calling me and i wasnt able to answer, neither from the handsfree, nor from the phone, while the left soft key showed "call status". but pressing the green button or the left soft key didnt bring me to the phone screen. after the call stopped (missed, of course), i still couldnt get to the phone screen by any method, i had to soft reset.

i think it happened to me with some other wm6.1 roms ive tried, so it has to do with the rom official version. ill keep you updated if it happens again and maybe i can get more info.

thanks for your interest, gives me confidence you are really trying to do a good quality job. good luck!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] ionutz6:
one other thing that happens: i am unable to install miomap gps software. it also happened on almost all wm6.1 roms. i think there was only one rom where i managed to install it, but dont remember which one right now.

just thought it might help you...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] asfoor:
Alex's V5 Home version can accept iGo Nav and MIOMAP Nav applications. The rest of the roms with 6.1 built will reject Nav apps for an unknown reason. I spent hours trying to get my iGO installed on Slueth's, UDKs, Austinsync's and others.

There is got to be a way, or will have to wait for WM6.2/4., which I heard it corrects radio variation issues and language issues as well.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] austinsnyc:
I'll use the same XIP as the Alex's V5 and no one will have issues with some apps not installing should take care of everyones issues
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] sgreenwood99:
Although I guess its not truly a "Nav app" in the sense that it doesn't announce directions, etc., Google Maps has worked well for me on 6.1 ROMs. Tried it on Austinsync and on Sleuth with no problem. By the way, if you haven't tried Google Maps lately, the traffic feature (free) is amazingly accurate and worthwhile.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] asfoor:
The problem I have with Google maps/nav is that it takes a long time to upload the image, due to DiVX3D format.
