When updating all that is needed is to wipe dalvik and cache correct? Or if I don't wipe system too will it be a dirty flash update? Just curious thanks! I'm loving the room smooth and fast and stable! ?

One more question is there anyway you get the Verizon brand off the status bar it was nowhere to be found in settings
[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Sachi315:
Thanks brother I've tried Textra I will again and my APN is on VZWINTERNET like it is supposed to be that's why I'm stumped
[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] trabando:
Then it must be the size limit. Your default sms app doesn't know the carrier limit. Mine is probably 300kb.. If I set to 600kb mms keeps failing. Try it brother.

I have to download validus rom or gzosp rom i am confused please tell me ??? What is the difference between them ??
[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] THERAJ12:
I'm running this on XT1806 on Verizon and for some reason I can't MMS on any build after Nov 14th...I wiped everything and only installed the ROM and no MMS on the newer builds works fine on older... Any thoughts? I can't edit APN settings either
[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] bishop0114:
I had the same problem. A work around to get to preferences is to click on the bottom problems button. Then click preference s.
[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] blackwyng:
XT1806 Verizon bad APNs

1. Flash back to stock

2. Root

3. Using ES File Explorer, copy /system/etc/apns-conf.xml to your computer or external sd card

4. Install Gzosp or Validus

5. Root

6. Copy the backed up .xml file back to /system/etc and overwrite

7. Reboot

8. ???

9. Profit!
[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] THERAJ12:
Actually tried that with latest build yet no profit don't think the APN file stuck ( also APN settings look same on stock vs validus)... Something changed between the early November builds and late...only difference between your steps is I restored a stock backup I might need to fully flash back from scratch ...or I'll use the APN file from working valdius build to newer build haven't tried that yet
[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] blackwyng:
After you replace the file, go to the apn settings and reset. Should read the file again and fix it. Worked for me on Validus with Verizon
[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] THERAJ12:
Ah OK thanks will try that I feared that might erase the replacement file...hope it works

[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] THERAJ12:
Didn't work for me but I used APN from a working build not stock is that maybe the problem? Anyway you could share your APN file if that would work?
[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Mîkòtø:
nope it doesnt either FC or never gets opened tho i use aroma version of gapps and modded GC which works the good with RAW support
[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] aryanpv:
How did you mod the camera It's not working via aroma install er it only shows me black screen
[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] minieod:
For the life of me I can't get any cameras to work on this rom. Tried the latest gzos and latest validus.

Anyone have any luck?
[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Phazmos:
On validus - yes. But don't remember which one (think it was a modded gc). To many roms ago to remember.
[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] minieod:
What rom do you use now? im not really having any luck with any of the roms here and going back to stock now
[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Mîkòtø:
Check my thread for Moto g5s+ in apps section and try the apps which states "arm-arm64" only those will work on Moto g5s+ and I'm using "GC_Android-6.0+_arm-arm64_C2API_WITH_RAW_CAPTURE.apk" and u also needs camera API2 enabled for it to work and the GC coming from open gappd even in arm version are mostly 3.2 version and 5.1 (in aroma) which doesn't work at all

Having issues with magisk. Reflash magisk zip to unroot. Try SuperSU for now for root
[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] minieod:
Thanks Adam, I'll give that a shot. It dirty flashed the setup again with 14.0 and it's been stable for a bit. I'm sure once hit post on this it will reboot instantaneously.

If it starts up again I'll give SuperSU a try
[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] itslels:
14.0 been working fine for me so far. Fingers crossed.
[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] minieod:
Same. Just got the phone yesterday for my wife and wanted to put Oreo on it but couldn't give her something with reboot city. 14.0 is solid the past 3 hours
[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Breunibär:
It's really sad, because that and the Google camera not working are the only flaws of this ROM, for me.

But I heard exFAT-support is only a matter of adding a line in the kernel. Is that true? So either a patch for the Validus-Kernel or flashing a completely different one could solve that.

Anyone using different kernel?

Or is exFAT support planned for future updates of ValidusOS?

thanks for this great ROM anyways! :)
[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Thebear j koss:
No issues here. Disabled overlays, wiped system and caches. Flashed new build and gapps nano. Booted up, let it chill overnight. Alarm went off today no problem. Flashed magisk 14.0 and my font mod zip, applied substratum profile backup and all is good. Thanks for the update!. ? ?

Ok ... I was trying to multiboot stock rom. But every time i boot into recovery it asks for password, as it says my device is encrypted ... I format whole data to decrypt data partotion.... now i boot in twrp fine....

but if i boot stock Rom use it .. And then boot to recovery, it again asks for password... And again i have to format data...

So am i missing anything... Plz smbody help me OR explain step by step to successfully multiboot....

Does anyone have audio issues ? On earphones at low volume audio gets laggy or whatever you call it !
[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Thebear j koss:
Stock rom encrypts data. You need to wipe data and flash superuser or Magisk. Then flash Rom etc
[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Phazmos:
Try disabling or deleting the equalizer app (audiofx I think it is).
[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Mîkòtø:
I tried that sadly disabling option is unavailable so I deleted it and installed stock audio FX given permissions even tried V4A system and no luck :( and when I use stock ROM it works just fine

What you did can u make list of recovery version , gapps and everything cause I still can't install superSU it gets stuck at patching sepolicy
[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Thebear j koss:
Do you have magisk installed? Need to uninstall magisk and any mods to the sepolicy.
[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Johanandres:
but I do not know how to do it, because every time I install it I do not recognize any part of the phone since it is encrypted. several times I've tried but does not recognize any file

:(
[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Thebear j koss:
Wipe everything. Wipe system, data, caches. Reboot recovery, flash magisk or superuser. Make sure you have backed up any files on your internal card before wiping. You need to start completely fresh.

Flash the magisk uninstaller zip if you have magisk installed, reboot & check if magisk is gone, reboot to recovery & flash the superuser zip (http://download.chainfire.eu/1220/SuperSU/SR5-SuperSU-v2.82-SR5-20171001224502.zip) & you should be good.

As for viper, the procedure is the same as nougat &

the zip in this link worked for me (https://xdaforums.com/nexus-6p/general/how-to-install-viper4android-nougat-t3465597).

Good luck ?

*Recovery version is twrp 3.1.1 r9 & I used GZR gapps.

Thanks for the build. Can you please tell me whether Google camera bug is fixed
[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Mîkòtø:
I think there is once where I uninstalled magisk without uninstalling it's module first

And also I did clean flash (cleaned everything flashed ROM, pico gapps - reboot ) than flashed SuperSU and it gets stuck at sepolicy even sideload or fastboot flash doesn't work I contacted chain fire and he explained how to manually flash it and I requires supported boot image for systemless superSU to work but I still haven't tried that method I'll give it try on Sunday
[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] THERAJ12:
The charging info on lockscreen doesn't always show charging rapidly when using stock charger but ampere confirms turbo charging...anyone else seeing this?

Edit - maybe it was timing or me but shows rapid now tends to fluctuate

Great ROM!
[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Phazmos:
The problem seems to be, not just this Oreo rom, but also others, is using the fx/equalizer apps. Don't use them, audio quality is fine, they are not needed.

Recovery is the r9 version found somewhere here, always open gapps pico, any rom (I've used all of them), super su 282sr5. Flashing instructions can be found by looking in "view forum posts" as I have posted it before.

OK, I'll be a nice guy this time - but I do get tired of having to do this constantly:

In twrp

Mount system

Factory reset

Advanced wipe - check system - format system

Unmount system

Install rom, su, gapps

That's all I would install, especially if you're having problems

Reboot.

Worked every time I did it - every rom, every device - for 7 years or so.

Thanks for the butter smooth rom Dev.I have only one issue,Google Camera is not working.

[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] oRAZY:
So far I am very pleased with the stability and especially the extra features on Validus 16.4. Problem I had at first was no cellular network. Backing up the partitions from stock (NANDROID IS IMPORTANT) I then restored only the EFS partition after flashing validus. That fixed the no cellular network issue for me.

Google camera is for 64bit.. it won't work in 32bit rom.. either wait for 64bit version of validus or you can download older version of modded gcam which supports 32bit.

[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] :
How could it? It's flashed in recovery and can be easily wiped and replaced.

Anti-rollback should just be for stock ROMs, I believe(at least that how it was for the LG G3).

I'm not a dev nor do I have any affiliation with the team. You should contact the devs or team thru email or telegram before posting shots of your own builds as it usually only causes confusion and or requests. Also the team may be able to use your services in future builds.

The forum is for development collaboration, and this thread is maintained by two devs because one got busy and another took over with builds. Literally the same situation you're yelling at Chris for

You should be welcoming his contributions

If you really have an issue you should be talking with the devs , thread maintainers, or moderators, not policing here . It's not constructive, and like Chris implies: drives people away.

[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Thebear j koss:
Wtf are you talking about? I don't give a flying g f@ck 1 way or the other, I do know a lot of devs and usually posting pics of self built updates are frowned upon. 1. They cause confusion amongst users 2. Users start requesting those unofficial builds and clogging the thread, also wasting devs time if they are using a different build and complain about issues. 3. You're also stepping on devs toes, they build and share with users and usually don't like the feel of competition. My suggestion was to just contact the dev and ask before posting screens like that. Sometimes devs can use some help especially if they are maintaining numerous devices and builds. It is just a courtesy and shows a little respect to the devs. Hell, I remember when People used to donate to continue development. And I mean donations averaging between 50$ and 100$. Now devs barely even get a thank you, just straight into complaints or constant requests for updates.
[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Phazmos:
You'd think with 2k posts one would know proper protocol instead of noob posts. But what can ya do. Unfortunately xda has become little more than a source of amusement for me - been that way for a while now. I used to build, but no way in hell I was going to make public anything for the reasons you mention. A whole lot of blind leading the blind - everyone wants to be spoon fed instead of doing the proper leg work before getting into stuff like this. You just gotta laugh - which is what I do most of the time - you pay good money for comedy in a club - and it's right here for free! Good devs are becoming less and less - I'm afraid xda may be going the way rootzwiki (remember them) did. That would be a shame. Maybe I will start building again - but I'll still come here for a good laugh. Time for an old (but good) joke.

My wife says to me - you know, it wouldn't hurt to give me a compliment every now and then - I said, no it wouldn't, but why take the chance.

Enjoy the holidays - and keep smiling!
