Hello everyone
I recently unlocked my bootloader and flashed a custom rom RROS .
But there are some things i am having problems with
1) lag with YouTube 60fps ,
2) unable to log into snapchat , i tried using magisk and other methods such as root switch app but still can't log in
3) battery life is quite low ( for which i use greenify but still drains fast )
If anyone can help me with these it would be great.
Thanks in advance
Your list quite sums up the current issues with custom ROMs. I've experienced the same on each ROM . I could't do anything with it. According to Wakelock detector, my phone was in deep sleep about 90%, still the battery drain was big compared to EMUI. It last for a day , sure, but not what I was used to.

Can you tell me how YouTube is fixed , is there a patch or something
After several weeks of battling terrible battery drain, lag and sluggish performance I am back on Stock Nougat, build number NPJS25.93-14-8. With moderate use, my battery is now averaging less than 2% per hour ( < 1% while sleeping), where on the custom ROM of choice it was running over 5% per hour, even while sleeping. I tried every trick and tweak I could find and Better Battery Stats didn't show anything that could account for the high drain. I even tried a different ROM to no avail. So I threw in the towel, returned to stock, and did the latest OTA updates. I am now running rooted with ElementalX kernel 1.04 and I couldn't be more pleases with the overall performance and battery life.
I am sure it was something I missed but I got tired of spending hours trying to get back to the original performance and battery life the custom ROM had several weeks ago. Sometimes you just gotta do what you gotta do.
While ota updates.......i brought to twrp only.... instead of installing latest security update.......... manually tried to install update...bt i can't..... gets an error... didn't u faced such problems

None of STOCK ROM or OTA updates can be flashed/updated by TWRP, you need to be on stock recovery as well everything stock (unmodified system, boot and all).
I faced this problem too, but I fixed mostly of the battery drain tweaking the kernel with the ElementalX app to ~0,80/h. I had to set the little cores working like big cores do, because all little cores and one big were in use always; and applied LightingBlade profile.

In order to use the OTA path you have to be on stock recovery, boot and kernel, not on TWRP. Otherwise you get the error that you experienced.

I went that path but it didn't seem to help much. Besides, I am happy with this stock setup. It is much better than when I was on Marshmallow stock and went over to custom ROMs. I can do anything I want to do and install any app I desire to use. Good performance, great battery life, and customizable as much as I want. No need to be on custom.

Before you can root stock Nougat you must first unlock you bootloader, install TWRP then flash Elemental X kernel 1.04 from TWRP.

Instead of asking questions that have been answered numerous times (ad nauseam) you should try reading through the forums. I realize you are a raw noob, but if you wanted to learn Calculus, would you ask a bunch of questions without doing any reading and studying? It's no different when you are modifying your smart phone.
Here is a link to a thread that will guide you to rooting stock Nougat. It works for all versions of stock Nougat.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mo...de-root-moto-g4-plus-supersu-android-t3587918
But don't do anything until you have read through the procedures and fully understand. Above all, make a backup of your system from TWRP before you do anything else.

Very true.
Also try LightningBlade tunables(v 1.2.3 ; the newer version does not work that well for me..).
Stock rom provides the best balance between Performance and Battery life.

If you're rooting on stock Nougat, you must have a custom kernel flashed (or used the temporary dm-verity disabler on the stock kernel) before you root. Else, without the mentioned modifications, you'll trip the anti-rooting protection built into the stock kernel, and you'll have bootloops unless you reflash your stock ROM as you experienced.
Easiest way, as per the guide is to:
Flash/boot TWRP.
Backup.
Flash ElementalX or vegito (any custom kernel will do, as these kernels do not have the anti-rooting protection).
Reboot to test.
Boot back to TWRP
Flash SuperSU v2.79 or newer, or magisk 13 or newer
Reboot.
You should be rooted, on stock, and if you've flashed magisk, Safetynet should be working It's working well on NPJS25.93-14-8 and it's stable. Granted, a few apps now seem to detect root/magisk (and fail to download/update from the Play Store, with an error 0), but nothing that a sideload from a legitimate source wouldn't solve...

Hi, sorry for ask, do you know where can i find the temporary dm-verity disabler?
I tried with a script named "no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.1" (this works for the G5 Plus 'Potter') but i haven't had any success. Even i unpacked the stock boot.img and i tried to manually patch it, but i failed here too.
Honestly i would like to test the stock kernel, because i never used it, i am always attached to flashing EX to get root access. Thank you in advance.

I don't know if this will still work on later builds than the November/December 2016 builds, but here's the kernel with dm-verity disabled: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mo...t-how-to-root-n-firmware-npj25-93-11-t3532556 Seems to cause bootloops though on the later builds however
Strictly speaking, I misspoke - it's not really a dm-verity disabler, more a stock kernel with dm-verity disabled. I think EX kernel is still the more stable and more reliable option. It would be nice to be able to root the stock kernel though...

Oh, i see, thanks for your response. I'll look into it to see how he did to by-pass the dm verity, and try to modify the last boot.img that we have.
I mentioned earlier in this thread about getting Error 0 whilst updating apps in Google Play. As it turns out, thanks to this tip here https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73552496&postcount=57 it appears to be an error with permissions on the /data/media partition.
I managed to fix it with osm0sis' script:
Download from here https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2239421 the sdcard Fix Permissions script http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3761904&d=1464187934
You may wish to back up your data with TWRP or ensure you have your photos and videos somewhere safe prior to flashing this.
Reboot to TWRP and backup your device.
Flash the above script.zip in TWRP and wait for it to complete. (it should be fixing the permissions in /data/media)
Reboot and you should be able to download/update apps again from Google Play afterwards. You may have to uninstall the app and re-install the app if it keeps failing.
I've got this working on a XT1642 running June 2017 stock ROM, rooted with magisk 13.3 and apps including Snapchat and Google Chrome update without issue now.

Useful info, this happened to me a couple of days ago. I thought it was something related to the integrated Chrome WebView in conflict with the system WebView, because it only happened when i tried to update Chrome, or any of his variants (dev, beta, canary, etc). Thanks.
This is a list of Nougat ROMs for this device and it's clones.
The list will be in the following format:
ROM : Version : Device : Tested/Untested
LineageOS : 14.1 : MMXC5 / E481 : Untested
Resurrection Remix : 5.8.4 : MMXC5 / E481 : Tested
crDROID : v3.5 : MMXC5 / E481 : Tested
AOSGPX : 7.1.2 : MMXC5 / E481 : Untested
There are also ROMs for the Elephone P8000, however the first time I tried one I got into a bootloop. It could just have been that I didn't wipe my caches, or it could have been a fault in the ROM; nonetheless I haven't tried any others from that device.
I couldn't find any for other devices, let me know if you see others.
Here is the factory firmware, as according to this post (Direct Download).
Also, the stock recovery: Original Post | Direct Download.
Im currently running crDroid and I couldn't be happier. Runs far better than the original firmware and the useless marshmallow update.

Have you encountered any bugs with crDroid? Did screen on time and standby increase by any good margin because doze and other os optimizations? With stock I get 7hrs SOT with LTE half the day. 5hrs if Skype calls and such.

Only bug so far is the kill app button not working (long press the back button) and sometimes after reboot sim cards not being detected. Usually it corrects itself after a few minutes. If not, I'll just re-flash the fix
Battery gets drained pretty fast compared to lollipop, but then again I used lollipop with xposed, greenify and amplify.

Happy to hear only minor bugs. I'm waiting on black Friday SD card to ship and then I'll be able to test too.
On lollipop all I needed to use was power nap to kill unwanted wake locks. I'll definitely try to get it to work because batter life is important to me. Only reason I'm upgrading is because of older exploits that stock didn't get updates for. Other than that stock with xposed is extremely stable for me.(30-60 days between reboots)
Do you know if crDroid is using stock lollipop kernel or is it a ported kernel? That would effect battery life greatly I suppose.
review of roms
Review time. Installed and tested these roms by wiping dalvik cache, system, data, cache and internal storage. Flashed ROM then gapps then "front camera flash" patch lastly flashed sim patch. Afterwards I wiped cache and dalvik cache again before rebooting. Once I had access to settings I disabled display live/night mode/blue filter for all ROMs.
All the roms tested used about 1GB of ram (and stock ROM being around <600MB.).
Resurrection Remix : 5.8.4 : Looks to me a part of this rom was made by another group of people that were not given credit.. Default browser loads the homepage of the other group. The system FM radio app was asking for root permission(denied it). Also it had email services running before I added any accounts can't remember this being the norm. Other than that this ROM ran the best in terms of speed and ui. Uninstalled because of security concerns.
LineageOS : 14.1 : This ROM has about the same speed as resurrection which is good but the ui stuttered/not smooth. Uninstalled because ported by same user as resurrection.
crDROID : v3.5 : This one ran the worse. It was slow and stuttered throughout the ui. Missed some customizations that Resurrection had so not sure why any one would want to use this instead.
AOSGPX : Didn't bother installing because last I heard they copied and pasted code from crDRoid.
At the end of the day I reverted back to stock because of security concerns. As well as having more ram available for apps. If I had more than one phone phone I would wireshark/test connections of the ROMs to confirm but I do not have. Hopfully this helps someone.

Just wondering with the ROM testing, did you disable the LiveDisplay nonsense? It drops my FPS to about 10, and is enabled by default.
Sorry, didn't read your whole post. I didn't find UI stuttering unless I enabled weird kernel stuff, or had L Speed installed.
Does anyone happen to know if any of these ROMs fix the problem that the official MM caused which was that all camera apps created a very dark image and took extremely dark photos?

Wow, thorough, thanks. Don't know what half those things are but I'll look them up. I guess there's no way to go straight back to Lollipop without flashing a stock ROM. I mean, by rooting it now maybe and then downgrading or something?

You could flash a lollipop twrp backup, if anyone uploaded one or if you made one before. But if you don't have it, only way is by sp flash tool and original firmware (which is not a recovery flashable zip).
Been using the Crdroid rom for a few weeks now. Havn't had any lag or extreme battery issues. Im interested in trying the resurrection remix rom since it was tested to be the fastest, tho them security issues are kinda holding me back. One thing im lookin for is front camera flash and back aswell. on Crdroid u cannot toggle it in the camera app, tho the flash works.

What are these security issues people are mentioning? Isn't a ROM a ROM? I don't get it.
Also, if crDroid works fine, you could just try any other camera app. There are several that are quite good. I wish there were videos of crDroid.

But the thing is you don't know what else has been tampered with.
Hey guys. Two days before i updated my phone manually via ODIN on a german version G930FDBT2ERG2_DBT.
So i just let Google and Samsung restore all my stuff. Then i installed TWRP and root via the no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0.zip and magisk v16.0.
After that i installed XPosed via the XPosed Installer app. I think since i did that or maybe before, every app needs hours to start and lags.
e.g. opening of Snapchat. Like it's closing so hard in background, that all services need to restart.
Instagram and OneDrive are shown many time as stopped working and i don't know why. Maybe Instagram caused by XInsta?
Okay i recognized OneDrive isn't even working anymore. Was already on Android 7 a problem. Does not seem to be compatible to something else.
You have any ideas or need any information? Let me know
try a factory reset. Personally, I use a modified stock rom (light rom) and it is very stale and very fast.

Antutu Benchmark gives me 164336 points, so it seems literally to be normally, but i know all loading times of Snapchat and Instagram and so on are so much longer.
I will try to flash it again and to start clean. Just the copying of the WhatsApp folder needs so much time.
So I'm asking again. Nobody else got problems? I still dont get the data mount error fixed, because when I install Magisk it's broke again and my whole phone seems to lag. I dont know if it's because of my Xposed modules or Magisk modules. But for example with the update everythings goes slower even if Antutu says something else. Snapchat needs years to start. Is it cause of dual messenger? But I don't think so. Or when i'm in the car and using Google Maps and Poweramp and tapping skip on my car radio for skipping in bluetooth there is a delay of 20 seconds sometimes so wtf.
Any speedups for S7 or Android 8 on S7???

Try an other rom ( official or custom ), m'y S7 exynos is smooth and stable.
For data partition, dis you flashed Tgp kernel ?
You Can finde a custom recovery in Tgp kernel thread, it fix that issue.
You need to download flashify from play store to flash the custom recovery.

Tgp kernel gives a good battery life ans smooth UI.
If you didn't flashed a kernel, you need to wipe data partition by writing ''yes''

Try an other rom ( official or custom ), m'y S7 exynos is smooth and stable.
For data partition, dis you flashed Tgp kernel ?
You Can finde a custom recovery in Tgp kernel thread, it fix that issue.
You need to download flashify from play store to flash the custom recovery.

If you didn't flashed a kernel, you need to wipe data partition by writing ''yes''

Works it without problems? Bro do i just need the kernel or also like I found out this THE GALAXY PROJECT ROM ? It looks like TouchWiz ha?
I have stock phone without root and my phone is getting really extremely hot since it was updated to Oreo.
Even by doing something like being here in the forum is getting so hot that is uncomfortable on my hand

Hey guys. Two days before i updated my phone manually via ODIN on a german version G930FDBT2ERG2_DBT... After that i installed XPosed via the XPosed Installer app. I think since i did that or maybe before, every app needs hours to start and lags...

If on stock then resources being consumed with bloat. If issues began around installation of xposed wouldn't it make sense to uninstall modules and xposed and see if improved over the next day? Restoring apps and data and rooting and moding is a lot of stress on device all at once, then it gets so warm it starts to go glitch. I've been there too. Best thing is to let it sit 30-60 min after set up finishes to cool off. Reboot too once restored data completes.
Almost makes me miss the rip out and replace with cool fully charged battery days of my S4 [emoji91]

So this morning I went to check on lineage OS news oh, and I found out that they released today for all pixels. I am running it with no issues although I would recommend to download the micro gapps package cuz if you do the Nano or anything below it will give you issues with your phone reading SIM card. Aside from that I had successfully running the rom with magisk installed.
Which versions of gapps did you try? Only nano/micro? I was thinking of selecting pico. Also, can you update via their in house ROM updater app while rooted?

Will there still wait to check to see if the updater works but it looks like everything is fully functional within it and right now, take a look at the picture that I'm going to attach to this that is her updater and it looks like it is completely 100% functional but I cannot be sure because there is no updates to test it with.
As far as the gapps go, don't use anything smaller than micro. There is something pixel 4 needs in telephony to work that is in micro+ but not in nano or pico ... If you flash rom without gapps , your phone will work to make calls, if you flash any gapps before micro, you will get a " insert SIM, emergency calls only " message.
After you flash rom, MAKE SURE TO REBOOT AND THEN FLASH GAPPS,! otherwise if you try to do it in the same session that you flashed ramen you will get a message telling you that you have insufficient storage to flash and it will fail to flash gapps!
A few things that I wish and I hope they do fix would be the 90 hertz implementation switch as of now there is no switch for it and the screen flickers at low brightness.
Soli gestures would be great, I know DU has them working so it's a matter of time before lineage does as well.... Same goes with the squeeze for assistant,.... It is also not working ..
Not working :
Soli gestures
Squeeze
Smooth display
this is the first release so I did expect it to not be fully fully functional but I know that within time it will be one of the best roms out there

Thank you for the detailed response!! I greatly appreciate all the info and I'm sure others will as well!:highfive: I will probably try it when the ROM becomes more stable. Currently on DU myself and I don't mind waiting until the project improves further. Would you mind letting us know in the thread how your first update goes while rooted? Thank you again for trying the legendary ROM and letting us know it was released!

Yeah, so after I installed it and set it up, I then adb sideloaded magisk canary on its stock kernel, it went thru like knife thru butter.
I then rebooted into android, finalized the magisk set up, rebooted and voila... I was rooted.... I then tried Kiri Kernel, since it has the necessary things for TWRP, flashed it within ex kernel and then tried to boot TWRP in bootloader only to get stuck on TWRP splash screen...
I was honestly trying to have lineage working with a working TWRP but unfortunately it did not work as such. So I gave up on the TWRP and I've been running the ROM with magic and modules installed with no hiccups The boot time is amazing battery life is really really good...
Viper worked first try... This has has to be one of three good roms out there with little to no issues.

Smooth display is auto switching between 60hz and 90hz that's why I asked if just 90hz was working

90hz works, 70% plus brightness on coral gives 90hz, below is 60hz. flame has some different tunings percentage wise, but same concept.
RefreshRate will work as soon as we have an official R image I can steal a single APK from.
We won't be implementing Squeeze or Soli most likely - it's RE, and given scrutiy over large projects and reverse engineered code, we likely won't see it unless it's reimplemented OSS (DU reverse-engineered it, but didn't clean room re-implement).

It works.
ok well i went back to stock aug firmware and then flashed the img file, then sideloaded the rom, rebooted right into recovery and flashed gapps ... stuck on the lineage boot animation .. do i need to let it boot up then reboot into recovery and flash gapps?
tried again, flashed the image then rebooted to start menu, rebooted to recovery and flash mini gapps and rebooted ... still stuck on the boot logo
what am i missing?
somehow i got it to boot and had a trebucket error, installed a different launcher - FIXED.
can not finish setup, keep getting data transfer crash
anyone get TWRP to load? im using fsociety kernel and it worked on another ROM

You're going to have to skip that by disabling the app when it force closes . It should let you proceed from there on. TWRP won't work and idk why... Trebuchet launcher will FC as well but since Google home launcher is installed via gapps it should be a fail safe. As far as kernel, I am running kirisakura and it has the necessary things to work with TWRP but I won't. Trust me I tried.... Make sure to root with magisk canary .
To fix cts mismatch in magisk download termux
SU
props
And select option 2 forced basic key attestation
Select y for yes and proceed... Reboot and you should pass safety net checks...
Hit thanks if I helped .. one love

thank you sir for the reply. However i could not get it to be stable. The initial setup failed no matter what i tried. The error of data tansfer tool would fail. I want to run this as it seemed very smooth, however i think i need to wait for another update or something. i followed the OP to the t and nothing seemed to work properly for me.
I use this daily, and am entirely unsure what you're doing here.
Are you using the wiki guide? If not, follow that to the tee, use nano opengapps preferably, and everything works like a charm.

I'll try again thanks for the info
Seems the wiki says you can sideload gapps right after sideloading the OS, the OP said doing that causes issues lol. But he'll I'll try it anyway

Got this running great, with gapps. Was wondering if you're getting the issue I am with google assistant. It seems to freeze up and not be usable.
followed the wiki directions and used full gapps not nano ( missed that 1 bit of info ) im STILL getting data tansfer tool keps stopping when trying to finish the setup going to try a reboot and see what happens. it shows just a sec then saying looing for updates then installing updates and crashes ... then back t connect to wifi . does this have to do with the gapps?
SO ODD ... reflashed and used nano. asked to connecto to mobile data, nothing as showing up, hit skip, tried wifi and nada .... hit skip then same damn error for setup .... insane. maybe ill just cancel the setup and do everything manually
retied all steps and got the no space error when doing gapps, switched to slot b and tried again and it worked ... waiting to see the data tansfer error ... i dont think my phone wants to play nice lately, or ever.
went back to stock firmware, loaded the 9/6 lineageos and have NO mobile data with nano gapps loaded. doing the update currently and will update shortly what happens
i can officially state i am up and running with so far NO issues, i have mobile data, wifi sent texts and made a call. now going to root and swiftbackup restore all my apps and blah blah
Anyone tried the new 13th nightly? Hopefully they fixed the screen flicker.

You do remember I said micro right? I specifically explained that by using nano you would have no cell phone connectivity and upon transfer tool just put no transfer
