Hey guys I've had my g3 rooted for a couple months now and I have yet to find a really good ROM to use cm12 was to buggy and grew tired of nightlies. Liquidsmooth was really good only issue I had was Skype and hangouts. I'm on candy5 latest build now and I'm getting a lot of glitches, force closes, etc. I've clean installed the last 2 roms and experience problems. If Liquidsmooth didn't have that Skype issue I would probably stuck to it. Any ROM suggestions?

For the most part, all the AOSP Roms like the ones you received will have similar bugs until they are ironed out over time. The least buggy Roms are those based of the lg ROM. Right now there are only 2 stock lg lollipop Roms. Both of them are very stable however they're basically just rooted versions of the stock lollipop ROM.
I see thanks for the reply can you link me 2 the 2.

[ROM][STOCK][BUMP'd] LG D850 20F Lollipop 5.0.1 (+ extras)
TekROM - D850 - Stock 20f - Lollipop - Deodex/Root/Busybox
Keep in mind both still have all that carrier bloat we love to hate. I use the first rom without issue and debloated it myself using titanium backup.
I'm surprised we don't have more roms. It's a great phone but I feel that support is lacking.

It's because the development took and still takes lots of work. The devs had a lot of work just to root Lollipop, then to flash twrp. But I also do think that between all roms available (including KK roms and LP roms) we don't have as many as other devices from the same gen have. Heck, I had my Galaxy S3 and there were ports for everything. Can't complain though, between the stock ones and illusion (talking my preferences), I feel complete.

For KitKat, there's plenty of ROMs available, partially due to the fact that porting D855 ROMs was cake (swap out kernel and modules, and you're golden). That's why there weren't too many D850-specific ROMs.
On LP, there's a new handshake process between ROM and kernel, so we can't do that...yet. I feel like "development" on ROMs as a result is going to be hindered, since there's hope that the process will get cracked, then we can just port straight from D855 with little effort. Otherwise, if we have to mess about with the D85020f base, it'll take much more time.

@Spz0 has been talking about this as of late in his OA855-5 ROM thread, as he is readying to move the ROM to Lollipop.
The defacto LG standard ROM of many, CloudyG3 by @Cloudyfa, also will inevitably jump on this bandwagon, but he hasn't been spotted in a while. He's probably just busy or something.
Not sure why this thread even exists.. this subject has been discussed ad nauseam in the Lounge.
@Nexus.S the question you've asked is one that will never offer ONE end all solid answer. It is truly a case of "to each his own". You need to continue doing what you were doing and try obe that fits all of your needs.
There are literally hundreds of users that have commented on every rom available for this device. Asking there will get you quicker answers, rather then waiting for people to find your thread and post something witty.
Threads of this type end up being nothing more then, OT threads.
Please check the index (found HERE) which lists all the roms for this device.

I can also vouch for the first one. In fact, I was far less aggressive with debloating and have skipped xposed for now... and it's more stable, better battery life and (IMO) a better UI.

True. For some it's more the 'personal process' of discussion with others that seems important, and less the strict data/direct content of the discussion.
resurrection remix 5.0.2 is a really great rom i had doubts because it was based off of cm but i was impressed

Hi, sorry if this thread is short, but i have two question blowing my mind.
1: Why don't whe have a 4.0.4 Cyanogenmod Rom?
2: And can we have a stock 4.1.2 rom? I mean, with motoblur, not cyanogenmod or that kinda variants
I know that motorola isn't collaborating with its upgrades. But, there is any chance?
First of all the boot loader is locked that means no custom kernel that means no proper CM builds, still there is an unofficial CM ROM in the development section take a look at it. And don't forget the funda "search before you post"..

You don't get me at all. I know that there's 3 roms of 4.1.2 CM.
And this was my comment about that, but no ones answers me:
I know that is hard, and i really really really apreciate the work that they're doing.
But, we have 3 roms of cyanogenmod, and the 3 roms have the same bugs.
I repeat. I know, they can't spend the whole free-time that you have working in the creation of the rom. But, why don't you team up and make a unique functional rom.
Or, am i missing something, and for the moment we can't have a functional rom because of motorola or whatever?

Then learn how to build your own freaking ROM, and why even start a NEW thread with this junk, it all fits in the CM Q&A thread.
These types of threads are not cool to your dev team. We all work very hard to bring the stuff that we do, to you guys, for free.
If you do not like the bugs in the CM based roms that we have then do not use them and stick to stock and stop basically complaining about it, or do some reading and learn about the process and see why we have these issues, we have all posted about it so many times now it is not even funny.
I saw your post before and chose to ignore it, but now that you have posted a new thread like this, I just had to reply.
--EDIT--
And to answer the questions you put in the first post here:
1) because the source for CM10 with 4.0.4 is not out anymore
2) because motorola will not release a 4.1 or 4.2 stock ROM and kernel, so we can not port that, even our 4.1 and 4.2 CM based roms are still really 4.0.4 because we still have the 4.0.4 version of the kernel underneath.
Again all this has been spelled out too many times now and some reading and searching could have gotten your answers.

I am not mad BTW, I am just tired of people not doing their own research. You are more than welcome to do some reading on compiling Cyanogenmod, so that you understand what we are up against. Also try searching for compiling cyanogenmod on locked bootloaders.
We (all the A2 devs), have answered these same questions so many times now, it is not even funny. It seems that as of late people have gotten more and more lazy in here, and we just keep hashing the same crap over and over again.
You say it is from your own ignorance, but you do not have to be ignorant, just use the search function or do some reading on your own and find what you need. And I do not want to hear excuses or complaints about the search function, I use it all the time, all you have to do is play with the wording until you find what you want. Also note other devs did not answer your original query either, for probably the same reason, not to put words in their mouth's either.

I think only PA is 4.1.2 so far.. the others are 4.1.1, I think
And Jim's right, I also saw your post in the PA thread and started to reply, but discarded it because I felt I was sounding too mean.. let me try again:
I can say from my personal experience and (relatively low) skill level - it's a mess trying to get all the pieces in place to compile a working ROM from source code for our phone - specifically, the vendor and device files..
I know at least a few A2 devs are working to straighten things out for Edison directly - and a few others working on other Motos with similar hardware and locked bootloaders, which benefits us all.
It's probably safe to say that our phone is in the early stages of true ROM development (as opposed to derivative pseudo-roms and ports) - there is still a lot of work to be done to get something truly stable.
Again, please be patient, or learn and contribute... don't stir the pot.

So I'm going to acquire my own Peregrine in a few days, just getting stuff ready.
If I were to scout for a rom right now, which one would be best for a daily driver?
I've been lurking around the Official CM11 thread for the Peregrine but it seems that it's having Wifi troubles and whatnot, and is still in Nightly.
Now, the question remains, which of the already available ROMs aside from CM11 would be nice? Like it wouldn't have major issues and all?
Also, does Root come by default upon flashing a ROM or does SuperSu(or whatever's available) have to be flashed thereafter?
Thanks,
Zyquil
Indeed, yes.
Seems like CarbonRom is working well for people, and is feature-rich too.
But I am yet to try it myself.
Just hope that the PA development for Peregrine won't die out.
There is no such thing as a "best ROM/kernel/mod/whatever", which is why we do not allow such threads out of respect for the developers.
Just head over to the dev section and try a few yourself, then you can decide which ROM suits you the best.

Hey guys converter from iPhone over here. Last time I rooted it was fairly straightforward and was able to get going quickly. This newer stuff is a little new to me.
I rooted my sprint s5 using towel root. Now what? I see roms like omega but none really say anything about the sprint model.
What should i do next to install a boottloader then a rom?
Thanks

Assuming you are a new XDA user. Welcome to the forum and be sure to read over the forum rules. They might save you some headache in the future. For example, this post should of been in the Q&A section but no biggie. A mod will move it if need be.
Anyways, about your question, this is the Sprint specific forum so all the roms here should be compatible with the Sprint S5 (900P). Some of the roms will be based off of Touchwiz (these will keep almost 100% of stock functionality while adding some extras) and AOSP roms (custom based on CM, MIUI, etc.) The first post of each rom thread will give you a good idea of what the rom has included, instructions to flash, what works and doesn't, and so on.
If you just rooted get a custom recovery on there and do a backup of the system and EFS first thing. As for bootloader, that is preference and may depend on what rom you flash but I would think you will be fine with what version you have now.
This is also a good thread to take a look at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=52456762&postcount=1

The link is for the method to only go back to stock. Creating a Rom and flashing it like that will not work. Sorry.

Glad you are excited but word on the street is alot of the roms for our phones are 99% complete. As soon as we get an unlock/exploite for our phone you will probably see most of your main stream builds pop up. IE. Slim rom, Cyanogen, Carbon, AOKP, etc. I am in no means trying to discourage you but in all due time I am sure you will have a choice of roms to pick from. The source for most of those roms listed above are on github you could start building and forking for our device and I am not sure our device files are available yet.

Yes slim will be coming to the g3 as soon as the bootloader is unlocked. I am the slim maintainer for the optimus g and g2. I have a g3 sitting in a drawer at home. Unfortunately, until the bootloader is unlocked (and im very confident it will happen. Thecubed unlocked it on the lgog), it is not possible to have any roms yet.

@calsurferpunk, as long as we are listing Quark ROMs, there's the official CM12.1 (Lollipop) and the official CM13 (Marshmallow).
I realize you have undertaken the task of maintaining unofficial CM13 until CM13 goes nightly... and I thank you for your efforts! -- but you are leaving off the official CM builds from the CM dev @Skrilax_CZ.
None of the custom Quark ROMs or any custom Quark kernels would be available without his work. (I'm not talking about stock-based ROM from @computerfreek274.) Most importantly, because all the custom Quark ROMs (even AOSP Mokee) use CM kernel -- which @Skrilax_CZ developed. Even @baybutcher27 kernel (which I use) is just an advanced version of CM kernel. Then, when the Droid Turbo XT1254 bootloader was unlocked last November, @Skrilax_CZ updated the CM kernel to also work with that Quark.
I'm currently using CM12.1 on two of my three Quarks until CM13 goes nightly.
Yes, your unofficial CM13 (Marshmallow) is updated more often than the official "work in progress" CM13, because @Skrilax_CZ is busy, but CM12.1 (Lollipop 5.1.1) is very stable and still has frequent nightlies.
While there is a thread over here for CM12.1, really it's best to use the CM12.1 links over in the other Quark forum, as that one has more dev traffic between you, @baybutcher27 and @Skrilax_CZ.
So, thank you for your work -- but if we are going to list all the current Quark ROMs, then let's list all the current Quark ROMs?
Pretty much we all know this bro..just a heads up we've know since we got unlocked

I understand. I by no means am trying to leave anything out. I just thought it would be handy to have a list since everything seems to be over in the Moto Maxx forums and not here. Not 100% needed, but I thought if it helps anybody, it's worth it. I'm sure there are others that I am forgetting or don't even know about. Just trying to list what I saw as a quick reference. Thanks for the encouragement and help on the posts as well.

I'd assume this 90%+ of the time, but in my experience with helping others with computer issues in general (outside of the forums) I've realized it's never good to assume everyone knows exactly what is going on, especially since computers/phones are obviously highly complicated devices. I just noticed how it seemed to be dying off in the forums here more for ROM development, so 1 reason I thought it could be happening is lack of understanding of the compatibility of the Moto Maxx and Droid Turbo. I figure it's worth helping that 1 new person who is just entering the "world of Android".
p.s. Like I said. I don't know if it's good to be putting this here or not, lol.
There are multiple threads on this already

I understand. I by no means am trying to leave anything out.
I'd assume this 90%+ of the time, but in my experience with helping others with computer issues in general (outside of the forums) I've realized it's never good to assume everyone knows exactly what is going on, especially since computers/phones are obviously highly complicated devices.

Sure, doesn't hurt to have a current list. For instance, we get newbies (twice in the past week) who didn't know the XT1250 and XT1254 are identical devices.
There was also Nexus Experience ROM (AOSP) and Sony Xperia ROMs, but they have dust on them. The Xperia ROM may still work with Droid Turbo, not sure, but the guy maintaining it said he was abandoning the effort. The Nexus Experience was never updated to work with current CM kernel (i.e. after the Droid Turbo bootloader was unlocked).

Show me what other thread in the Droid Turbo forum lists the unofficial CM13 (Marshmallow) ROM for all Quarks by @calsurferpunk? Right. There's not one. So you are wrong.
More information is better.
So you are telling me that nowhere on the droid turbo forums does it mention moto maxx Roms being compatible with the turbo? Hmmm OK if u say so guy

That's not what the thread is about. You might want to look at the title?
[ROMs][Quarks][List for Moto Maxx and Droid Turbo]
It lists the current ROMs available which some people over here may not know about. The CM13 (Marshmallow) ROM in particular at the top of the list is not from the CM dev, but is compiled by the op @calsurferpunk quite frequently -- using CM sources and @baybutcher27 custom kernel. It's an "unofficial" CM13, is relatively new -- has gotten good review by users -- and is NOT listed anywhere over here. (The official CM13 by @Skrilax_CZ has not been updated in about 6 weeks.) The op is doing that ROM as a public service until CM13 goes nightly or until the official CM13 is updated more frequently.
So, while most may know Quark ROMs are compatible, there's not a current master list over here. Two of the ones available in the past, Nexus Experience and Sony Xperia, have fallen off the charts due to abandonment. The unofficial CM13 (Marshmallow) has joined the list.
Some over here may not even realize Quark have TWO Marshmallow ROMs available? Or where to find them?
Not sure what you are upset about. Information that helps Android users is good.
My wife and I each have Turbos which I bought as soon as I saw that the bootloader had been unlocked. I have been watching both development forums (Android development & Original Android development) for this phone and was completely unaware that all of the development for this phone was happening elsewhere.
Thank you for this thread!
to the grumps.

dude, you obviously knew already bc you have been in all of these (Turbo/MMAXX) forums for like a year...much like myself.
What @calsurferpunk was trying to do is *actually* a decent idea: Inform the uninformed.
More users ends up netting more devs, which nets more ROMS. it absolutely cannot hurt. We have amazing devs that have gotten us this far. What can it hurt to inform newcomers quickly? you never know who is potentially a dev.
Double post. But wanted the Turbo guys to see. Dont be scared its alright
Clean Flashed From 1.2.8 Computer Freak (Lollipop) on device XT1254 VZW and Loving it so far. Only thing I have noticed is my damn weather will not show on Clock. Other than that good stuff bud.

I appreciate you making this thread my wife and daughter have the turbo I have the turbo 2 so I'm not up to date on the rom's. This made it very easy I don't get why anyone has an issue with this thread it consolidates all the active rom's great idea.
Two chinese guys ported flyme 4.5 to xt1254/1250 but discontinued now,both workd fine(without any gesture),it's such a pity.
i wonder whether there is a MIUI porting to have more choices.

Over in the other forum, someone tried to post Chinese port of Flyme ROM as well as Carbon ROM, but the threads were quickly closed by the mods and all posts deleted. If I remember correctly, allegations of malware buried in the ROMs or some kind of advertising spambot or something? It was for our protection, which I appreciate.

Several have asked for MIUI ROM for our Quark -- but apparently there's no dev who owns this device willing to do it?
________
And CM13 (Marshmallow) is now official (out of preview status), and pumping out nightlies.
Say bye to CM12.1 (Lollipop). The last nightly seems to have been April 5, 2016. I'm still running it on 2 of my 3 Quarks, until I get time to switch over to CM13.
CORRECTION: one more CM12.1 snapshot coming:

I've tested two flyme ROMS(4.5.4.5R and 4.5.4.4R),carbon rom(5.1.1) and aicp rom(6.0) from China,each of them have 3-4 advertising spambots.That's the reason why delete them,I appreciate it too。

if you have root,u can delete them in folder /system/app or /system/priv-app/.
Almost all the third-party-rom already have root.
@calsurferpunk, CM13 is no longer in preview. You can update your op post list.
