I'm trying to figure out if upgrading to Android Oreo would be a good idea.
I'm running Nougat 7.1.2 with CarbonROM iny Sony Xperia Z5, an well, it's official that my device won't upgrade to Android 8.0, but that's not the point.
I'm using Xposed modules, Root (idk if it's possible to root android 8 yet) and all the advantages that it gives in terms of modules, customization, performance etc.
So, should I wait until Xposed is available on Android 8.0 or is ot worth it to upgrade as soon as possible (with a custom rom)?
What do you guys think about it? Would it be stable enough?

Hello,
I am starting to learn how to cook Rom. Specially that could run on my Nexus 5.
As far as I know, I need the binaries. However that latest ones that Google support are for for Android 6.0.1 (M4B30Z). How can I make them suitable to Nougat or even Oreo?
Up to which version of Android operating system can the Xperia Z3 be updated, currently with Marshmallow 6.0.1 unrooted, keeping it running at 100% and without having problems of any sort?
And where can I find a good 'guide' to follow in order to be able to make this update?

There is a ROM with Android 8.1
It's quite stable, lacking video recording
Hold on to marshmallow currently until the creation of a stable rom (fully functional)
Hello everyone my name is Ali and I am new to XDA. Hope this forum will help me to increase my Android knowledge.
My question is simple. Should I wait Android 8 to root my S7 or should I root my S7 now? Thanks in advance.
Hi. I am also new. In my opinion, rooting now or rooting later will depend on what you want to achieve. I rooted very recently coz I want to gain more control to my phone and I want to try the new roms available here. If you root later, then there is a possibility that the new rom (assuming that you would like to install a custom rom) will have some bugs. So it will take a couple of updates to stabilize it.
It's really your preference but Android P is much different than 7.0/7.1. It has support for multi-screen devices as well as foldable displays. Also it will have hidden control of signal strength show controlled by the carrier. Developers will eventually get in there but if you want to enjoy root I say root now. There's loads of stable stuff for 7.0, even Xposed is operational on 7.0 and 7.1.
I'm using stock S7 rom. (exynos) But i would like to root and put Lineage OS. Because i live pure android. Is Lineage OS 14.1 stable for daily use?

No, it has bugs. Only stock roms are good are good.
Hi
I Received some old S7-930F Device.
Currently it is Rooted with custom SuperMan ROM, Running over Android 8.0.0.
Basically, I want to make sure phone is up-to-date as "much as possible" in terms of:
1. Is there any android update newer than Android 8, which is stable, for Galaxy S7?
I know there's beta by lineage based on Android 10, but looking for only stable version.
If there is - Can someone please share some guide / thread with updating instructions?
2. Is there any update to baseband version?
Currently the phone runs with G930FXXU2ERG2
If there is - where can I get it, and how to install it?
Much appreciated
Thanks
No theres not sorry

Last version of S7 firmware is FXXS6ESGD, get it of sam mobile or Samfirm tool. There's some good roms based on that, de bloated that run really well.
Hi, I have a LG X Power device model K220, its Stock ROM is Android 6.0.1 and since some important Apps for me no longer work for that version, I have been looking everywhere for modified ROMS from at least Android 8 or 9 onwards, but I do not get anything, I already checked the compatible devices for Lineage, Resurrection RMX, among others and nothing, if anyone has the knowledge of any modified ROM for LG K220 that is Android 8 or 9 onwards it would be of great help to me
