[ROM] [Unofficial] [LineageOS 14.1] [Verizon] [d2vzw] [SCH-I535] - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

New home for the UNOFFICIAL builds of LineageOS 14.1 for the Verizon Samsung Galaxy S3 (d2vzw) (SCH-I535)
Transitioning from the Q&A sub-forum "Level of interest in maintaining UNOFFICIAL LineageOS 14.1 for d2vzw ??"
This ROM is built only from source pulled from the official LineageOS repositories. Nothing is changed by me. You get exactly what Lineage would make available if the phone was still "Officially" maintained.
The only difference is my build is signed with my private key, vice the official Lineage key.
Since my build is signed with a different key, you MUST PERFORM A FACTORY RESET (which means WIPING DATA).
If you do not WIPE DATA, the flash will still complete, but when you try to run any apps, they will most likely crash.
You cannot backup your applications and restore them after flashing, so you will need to reinstall all your apps from scratch. This behavior is not an issue with the ROM, but an Android security feature to protect your phone data.
If you choose to install a Google Applications suite (aka GApps), you MUST flash the ROM & GApps AT THE SAME TIME. Said a different way....
You CANNOT flash the ROM first, let it boot, set it up... and THEN go back and flash GApps. This requirement applies to any Official LineageOS ROM.
Builds will come out mid-month to capture Lineage updated and android security patches.
While I have verified flashing the build on my own phone, and the process should work for everyone else.... I STRONGLY recommend everyone do a FULL BACKUP before flashing the very first time.
This ROM is ONLY for the VERIZON Samsung Galaxy S3, so DO NOT flash it to other S3 variants.
The most current build is available from:

STOP! DO NOT PASS GO!
You MUST also have an UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER. If you are using SAFESTRAP because you CANNOT unlock your bootloader, then you are out of luck. This ROM will NOT work with SAFESTRAP.
Make sure you're TWRP version is up to date! Older versions of TWRP will have issues flashing this ROM.
https://dl.twrp.me/d2vzw/
Make sure you are using the latest Modem. It should be I535OYDNE1
If you don't have it installed, you can download a zip, that is flashable through TWRP here:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/i15enyq8wm759z9/d2vzw_MF1_firmware_NE1_modem.zip?dl=0
Hint: When using your SGS3 without a cellular plan (wifi only), make sure to put the phone in Airplane Mode to disable the cellular modem, but then turn on WiFi and Bluetooth. GPS does not seem to be affected by using Airplane Mode. The small airplane icon will remain in the status bar after turning WiFi and Bluetooth ON. Using this technique, with the phone in Balanced power mode, I can routinely get 6+ days of standby (phone powered on, but not actively used). There is also an Efficiency Mode, and Power Save Mode. I've experimented with Power Save mode, and went 10 days with mostly standby and some short term intermittent use; however the phone is slow to respond and a bit sluggish.
Battery Replacement info: For those interested, I am only on my second battery since I bought my d2vzw new. OEM battery latest almost 4 years. My second battery I bought off Amazon, from Anker. I continue to get very good life with the Anker battery. It also has the built in NFC antenna. At some point, I expect I will need to replace the Anker, but most batteries I see online, do NOT include the NFC antenna. If you've replaced your battery recently, and are happy with the quality/performance, it would be great to post the brand and seller for everyone's benefit

Excellent job @mjb32803!!!

How many users do we have?
Dropbox doesn't provide any download metrics, so I have no idea how many people are using this ROM.
If you've downloaded and flashed, I'd appreciate if you'd either PM me, or make a post.
Posts would be preferred along with a note about how its is working for you.

I had just been using it for a short time in the last few days...
All i can provide is that it has been working very well with little to no issues to really report. I just have to use it a bit longer, myself, to provide anything substantial (since it's not my primary device).
Just an FYI/clarification for those who may not be aware of this minor thing...
Disable (aka set it to Manual) the LineageOS Firmware Updater within the Device itself. This just uses resources and Internet data. The Unofficial updates are provided by @mjb32803 and requires them to be manually downloaded and installed.
Thank you very much @mjb32803 for your time, effort and, importantly, your support for this development!!!

Haven't flashed yet but joining this thread for tracking! Have 2 perfectly functioning S3's at home and will be watching this conversation. Thanks a ton for the effort and time! :highfive:

I'm on your ROM, thanks!
Not my primary device but nice to know I have a current OS when I do fire it up.

A few delays this week. Upgraded to Ubuntu 18.04 Mate
I wasn't prepared for the impact of upgrading my system from 17.10 to 18.04, and things went a bit crazy when I tried to create a new build.
After spending a few days tinkering, I decided to follow my own instructions to recreate the build environment and setup the repository.
While frustrating, it was a good opportunity to verify what I had documents.
Needless to say, my instructions did not work as written, although I was pretty close and just a few tweaks were involved (thanks Google).
Short story is that I think I got everything working, and I am currently running a build.
Keep your fingers crossed (@23%) and moving along nicely.
Update:
Build done. Flashed to my phone and currently testing. So far seems good. This build was mainly to verify everything works after my 17.10 -> 18.04 Update. In any event, I will post through dropbox in a couple of days. FYI, The Android MAY security updates have not dropped yet, so they are not in this build.

Thank you *so* much for keeping this alive. I've been using my S3 for far too long, and it's just a mess of a hacked/rooted phone on the last official KitKat update. I'm moving later this year and will likely move the entire family over to T-Mobile (Sprint T-Mobile?) at the same time since I like the extended number of phones supported by their network vs Verizon (and I know my family will too, like the Honor 7X). Until then, freedom!

Tested, new build is available
See Post #1 for the download link.
I've been testing thing this one on my personal phone for a couple of days, and no issues so far. :good:

@mjb32803, I just wanted to let you know that your last build has been working really well.
Thank you very much for your continued development and keep up the good work!

Appreciate the feedback. Battery life on my phone has been pretty amazing. Using the phone as a remote for Roku, and my WD TV Live streaming boxes, and occasional email checking, web browsing... I get 4 days between charges.
Am in the process of running a new build...

New Build Available 2018-05-17
Download information on post #1
The May security patches still haven't dropped, so they aren't in this build.
I've been running it since yesterday and is smooth for me.

New Build 2018-05-20
Download and Installation info in Post #1
Yes it's only been a few days since the last build, but this one includes the May 2018 Android security patches. I have flashed to my phone and tested Play Store, Root Explorer, Firefox, Maps, Camera, Contacts, K-9 Mail... all seems good. Normally I would run the phone for a more extended period, but thought I'd make the update available quicker since it does incorporate the security patches.
Enjoy.
Update. 1 day 3 hours since flash. Working well. Battery @ 71%

mjb32803, thanks for your hard work keeping this project going. I use it and I love it.

New build has been posted.

Tested for the past 18 hours. Stable with good battery life.

I would love so very much to update my SCH-I535 with your awesome LineageOS build - thank you for doing this! However, is it true that if my GS3 OTA updated to Android 4.4.2 than I'm totally out of luck and am forever stuck with crappy old Android?? I hope not

Sorry to be the one to tell you, but yes, with 4.4 you got KNOX installed and cannot unlock your bootloader without bricking the phone.

BTW someone suggest me a good backup softwqre to take backup to PC before flashing.
finally thanks @Rohan purohit you the real MVP
Sorry for a little bit of offtop, but this is the most watching thread now I believe
The link to the telegram chat from this post ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-...4i-ferrari-t3355702/post68651421#post68651421 ) has expired. Could someone please share the new one. I'd like to join this group to be one of the beta testers I have computer with adb on it, usb cable and pretty fast internet
Thanks in advance
PS. And of course I have Mi4i in my pocket
Wiped dalvik and cache,
Flashed this rom
Flashed gapps
Rebooted
Awesome work devs , didnt lost anything( i hadnt even taken backup before flashing and yes this is my daily driver ) ...looked like an update only.
When i think abt it , our device is running the latest version of android. I never thought a day like this might happen...
Kudos to all the devs... ?
I'd like to quote Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen here: "Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?"
Hi everybody,
at first, I'm looking to this forum every day. Thank you for your hard work to all!
Since I'm new to flashing with Xiaomi Mi4i, can someone please help me with the instructions?
"Flash firmware 6.6.10.1" - where do I get the firmware?
"Download the latest build" - is this the first link provided under "Download" in the first post?
Are the sensors working with both things above or do I have to use a custom kernel or something?
Also, will my data stay available if I just do these steps or is everything lost? (I currently run the Global Dev version from Xiaomi officially)
Thanks!

How to report a bug/Ask for a change​
Over the small amount of time I've been doing my edits and shared them with the community, I've noticed something that seems to irritate me. I can't speak for all the developers on this forum, but I do edits/ROMs/PORTs/etc... to what I like. I don't work for anybody else but me. I share my work because it may have something of value to other people and/or some people may share the same taste as me on regards to what they want on a ROM.
That being said, that doesn't mean I will completely ignore what the community has to say.
First and foremost, it must be said, I am merely a beginner. I do not claim to be a professional developer that knows how to add everything, I am nowhere close and I learn as I go.
There are ways to ask for something and/or report a bug when it comes to ROMs, and this post is my attempt to try to explain how to (and how not to) report a bug in order to help me out as much as possible to try to fix something
You can also ask for something to be added, but there are also ways to ask for something
So, here we go
Keep in mind:
I do not add stuff that can easily be downloaded from the Playstore
I, myself, don't do kernel edits
I COULD remove stuff if NOBODY uses it
---REPORTING BUGS---​
How NOT to report a bug:
"SystemUI (or any app)is crashing, please help!"
"Instagram doesn't allow me to edit my post, what could be wrong?"
"My bank account app is not letting me do such thing"
These posts are sort of pointless as they only state something but I have no context on what could be causing it. Also, I can't really control (for the most part) third-party apps, so if you're going to ask about them this way, don't even bother
A slightly better way to report a bug:
"I clean installed the ROM and was working fine, after I installed Facebook and logged in, I immediately uploaded a photo and SystemUI started to crash. Can you look in to it?"
"I tried to install Black Neon theme (a link to it would work as well) and it was working fine until I tried to activate AOD (or anything else for some reason) and SystemUI (or any other app) is crashing, could you look in to it?"
"My bank account app doesn't let me take a screenshot of my accounts. I get a toast notification saying "Can't take screenshot due to security policy"
As you can see, this provides a bit more context and explanation on your current situation. This gives me a little more detail on trying to replicate the problem and hopefully could fix it by replicating it. Well, except for point #3 which is out of my hands for the most part (I think). If you include what kernel you're using would make everything better! Also any significant change that would require root (like xposed and or anything that modifies /system also needs to be informed for better results)
The BEST way to report a bug:
LOGCAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please learn the ins and outs of a logcat, this really helps a lot on finding what the problem is. Also, please give a brief explanation as the above examples when providing a log cat
---ASKING FOR STUFF TO BE ADDED---​
How NOT to ask for stuff:
On your next update, add iris scanner
You should add (app) on your next update
Hey, please add (app or feature) on your next update
No, I do not work for you. Even if you say please like the third example, that doesn't mean you're being polite. It still sounds like an order lol so you should probably rephrase your request.
How to ask for stuff to be added to my work:
Would you be so kind to add (feature) to your ROM, if possible?
Would it be possible to add this app to your ROM?
Please, can you add (feature) to your ROM, if it isn't much to ask?
See how politeness makes everything better? You're not demanding it, you're just politely asking to see if maybe it is within my grasp to add something. And if all request would be like this, I can assure you I'd try my best to add said feature
I hope this is useful to you or I at least hope that some people read it.
If not, I can just tell you to return to stock ROM, probably better than any ROM I put out anyway
Just so you know guys, I am constantly trying to fix bugs on this. My porting skills are not very good when it comes to odexed software lol
So I hope to make this port better over time.
H-ROM updated to V2 which adds stability and a few features I had previously removed.
Also it fixed face unlock oh and now, secure folder works. You just need to flash this: Secure Folder patch
Please give thanks to the post for making this zip to fix Secure Folder in this ROM
Enjoy!
Fixed Smart View.
Thanks to @KassemSYR who gave me the final key... to add lines in build.prop
I am looking forward to install this rom on my device but there are some things holding me back,specifically,how much unstable is the wifi?does it usually disconnect or something like that?or it does that not so usually?The second thing that's holding me back is that,my laptop has a corrupted hard drive,and because I am on vacation I cannot replace it at this time, but I can only run lubuntu (light ubuntu) on my laptop from a USB. So,if I actually want to flash this rom,as you may know Odin doesn't work on linux,is there any other way I could root my device and flash twrp? Thanks for reading

Well, honestly I've never had problems with WiFi. I only had to include it in the thread because it was reported on the original H ROM.
I can tell you with confidence that my WiFi has worked perfect.
When using any type of linux, you can use Heimdall instead of Odin
Thank you dude!! im testing the rom now:
Bugs:
1. Battery Drain (or bad battery performance).
2. The Rom is slower/laggy in multitask.
Please upload the wallpapers and ringtones in a flashable files, are amazing!!
Thanks for make this rom!
Thanks for make this rom very much^^
But I wish you add Bixby Voice in this rom.
This rom especially has very few bugs, haha

Any stable ROM for Osprey still getting security updates?

Hi,
I took my first step into the world of custom ROMs in November 2017, when the stock Moto G3 ROM was no longer getting security updates. I installed LineageOS 14.1 and have been using it happily since. It has suited me perfectly, very few problems, stock Android and I don't need root. I'm grateful to all those who have made this possible - the names I know are Alberto97 and squid2, I'm sure many others have contributed too.
Now LineageOS 14.1 is no longer supported, I've been following the thread [ROM][osprey] Official LineageOS 14.1 and checking squid2's posts and it seems to have gone quiet on that front. So I'm now in search of a really stable replacement ROM that's getting security updates, suitable for daily driver and a risk-averse user with limited experience of custom ROMs. I don't mind which Android version.
Thanks in advance for suggestions!
Cheers,
Dave
The LineageOS 14.1 branch is still getting security updates, so it is possbile to build it yourself. I did it few days ago and using my own build with July 2019 security patches without any issues. The process however can take few hours and is not easy, if you're not familiar with it. I can upload my unofficial build that I'm using right now. You should be able to install it easily through TWRP, if you wipe your data first. However, if you would like to install it over official build without losing data, you'll have to switch to unofficial keys through ADB first. Can't post any links here, because of the new account, but you can find more information by searching "lineageos osprey build" in Google.
Thanks, @pkowalik for your helpful reply and offer of uploading your build. I'm hoping to find an official ROM (which I guess won't be LineageOS) that is still getting regular builds but if I don't have any luck with that, I may be glad of your offer, at least to keep my phone going for another couple of months.
Another user on the [ROM][osprey] Official LineageOS 14.1 thread was looking for a build with recent security patches, I'll point them to this thread.
Thanks again!
Hey @Dave here, as I mentioned before I can't post any links here yet, so I'll send you a link to my current build in a private message. If there will be more people interested, I'll think of creating a topic in "Moto G 2015 Android Development" section and upload future builds as soon as the next security patches are merged (after testing them on my device first).

Hello i have a channel from telegram which posts almost all new ROMs
Link :- https://t.me/iammotog3
But as per your questions you said your enjoying Lineage 14.1
So as per my knowledge there is a maintainer updating Lineage 14.1 Unofficially and most of the current ROMs available to osprey are Unofficial , But according to my experience i can name a few in which you will face literally no issues
Pie ROMs :
1. Dirty Unicorns Pie ROM maintained by Chil360 (chil won't post any of his work on xda according to my knowledge he post in on telegram group only)
2. AICP ROM maintained by chil360
3. Gzosp maintained by chil360
All these three ROMs are likely to be most stable ROMs in pie
There are also few other ROM in pie
4. Lineage os pie - maintained by chil360 ,althafy, rahulxda9999 and one more dev (i don't remember his name correctly so avoiding to write) all these have different builds
5. AOSiP Pizza great rom maintained by chil360
6. Revenge os Only CAF pie ROM for osprey maintained by chil360
7. AOSiP Derpfest maintained by rahulxda999 and ruchil both have different builds
8. Resurrection Remix pie by heitezy
9. Havoc pie by ruchil
Viper Os pie and Crdroid pie probably got discontinued because of some issues with root
Oreo ROMs :
Not a single Oreo ROM is maintained these days
I think because of its high battery drain problems no one really interested in it .
But still there are few gems in stability / recommend by me if you really want to use android Oreo.
1. AOSP build by alberto97
2. AEX build by ishubhamsingh
Nougat ROMs :-
Nougat have the most stable ROMs for osprey, i believe.
But only 2 of them are maintained
1. Lineage os 14.1 maintained (Unofficially) in 3 varients by MSe1969
2. Resurrection Remix by Heitezy
But if recent security patches isn't the main issue then Viper os is my favourite in all Nougat Roms
That's all i knew about currently maintained ROMs
If i messed up some names then sorry for that
@pkowalik I would be interested in a unofficial LOS14 build.
@KBeng please check your inbox. Once I get access to development forum, I'll make my builds public.

Post your builds to telegram group
https://t.me/Moto_G_2015
Almost every dev post there test builds or stable builds
Thank you @lonkar for your suggestion. I've shared a link to the directory with my builds on Telegram group as well. Also new build including August 2019 security patches has been uploaded.
Thank you so much @pkowalik and @lonkar for your very helpful posts. Sorry for the slow response, it's been an eventful couple of weeks here when I couldn't risk being without a working phone. Hopefully things have calmed down a bit now.
That's an amazing list, @lonkar, thank you! I was feeling positive about going for something currently supported like Resurrection Remix Pie, though after reading through the whole thread for that ROM, there were enough mentions of battery drain & other issues to put me off a bit. Another discussion I came across suggested that battery drain was liable to be an issue for all Oreo & Pie ROMS for Osprey, I don't know whether that's true.
I also read the thread for MSe1969's LineageOS 14.1 builds and I see OTA support was just added, which makes that an appealing option.
Thanks again!
I am currently MSe1969's build that's the best option in my opinion. And its true that Oreo ROMs have battery drain issues its more like a battery leak than drain. And about pie it isn't that bad i mean its pretty good than oreo but isn't as good as Nougat Rom
Another issue on pie and oreo i would i like to mention is camera makes battery go down like 20% for 3 clicks its really annoying while your on trip and already on battery saving mode.
go for resurrectionremix ( pie ) . it has official build and regular updates as well . very much stable and with lots of custom features . i have been using it for a week now . heres is the link on xda : https://forum.xda-developers.com/2015-moto-g/development/rom-resurrection-remix-v7-0-1-t3914718
or you can directly download it from their official website .
How much battery life you are getting on lineage os 14.1?
I mean the SOT?
yes, I'm also interested in pie-rom where the battery life is good and encryption really works.
Currently I use official LineageOS 14.1 and have a display on time (SOT?) of 2-3 hours in 4-5 days of use.

I agree. I have been trying the official 14.1 LOS for osprey since yesterday. This along with squids kernel gives the best battery backup I think.

LOS 14.1 status -
You also get project /e/ which is quite a big project and includes the Motog 2015 as one of its 81 devices supported:
https://e.foundation/
https://gitlab.e.foundation/e/wiki/en/wikis/device/osprey/info
Bump.
I tried the latest Resurrection Remix pie by heitezy build, but it is buggy.
I'm used to LOS and RR ROMs, so I'm not well informed about others ROMs.
My first guess would have been to give a try to LOS 17.1 by chil360, but I can't find the patch notes, and as I'm not the primary user of the phone, I don't want to have to grope for too much ROMS before finding the right one.
MSe1969's LineageOS 14.1 seems very stable and well updated, but it would be quite a stepback from RR 6.
I aim for stability, good battery life, steady security updates, but with a minimum of available customisation.
There are handful of Stable Q and P ROMs getting updates

Would you please provide a link if you wouldn't mind? Thanks
I had problems and I got help and figured it out this is what I had to do.
1 . Fastboot -W
2. Fastboot boot twrp ( I had to use 2 different versions due to my phone being a pain in the butI used twrp 3.3.x.x to push the carbonrom zip to the phone then rebooted back to bootloader the fastboot boot twrp version 3.4.x.x. to install Carbon Rom you may have better luck with the 7pro twrp 4.4.x.x to install this rom)
4.Reboot to Bootloader (I skipped 5-7 cause I did not want google on my phone the less the better my opinion)
5. fastboot boot TWRP
6. Flash gapps of your choosing in TWRP(opengapps pico has best battery life atm)
7. Reboot to Bootloader
8. fastboot -w
9. fastboot flash persist <your persist backup>.img ( I lost fingerprint scanner cause I could not read directions use the msm tool to get your persist backed up if you like to use the fingerprint scanner)

Hi I was wondering if you could provide me the link ti get the twrp for telegram? Please
which TWRP version works ? I tried 3.4.0.2 and 3.4.0.12, both finish with error but not able to boot up
Does someone just have a link to the TWRP? Seems pretty silly to be only in telegram which i cant access because my phone doesn't have an OS and you cant log in on desktop without your phone
Edit: It's in the discord too lmao, enjoy the treasure hunt
I flashed the may build all went well.tried using verizon everything works...phone calls sms only issue no data.cant send mms or surf the web.anyone have any suggestions? Things i tried...adding new apn which i cant wont allow me.tried using global mode and a few others same thing.any help would be greatly appreciated.also flashed on 10.4 firmware...
If we want to use a more recent upload of this ROM from the official sight (not cr9) is 10.0.36 (at least) still ok or do we need to start from from a later version of the stock ROM on both slots?

LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 11 (R), which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.
LineageOS is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. You will need to provide your own Google Applications package (gapps). LineageOS does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.
Base source code is available in the LineageOS Github repo. And if you would like to contribute to the project, please visit our Gerrit Code Review.

Amazing... Android 11 for a 2015 device that launched with Android 5.1.1 Lollipop. You gotta love XDA and the committed developers like @althafvly who keep development alive for the Osprey/Merlin. Thanks OP for your continued hard work.
Updated to LineageOS-18.1

@althafvly thanks again for this Android 11 goodness for the Osprey & Merlin. What are your recommendations, if any, as to a suitable GApps package for this ROM?
I haven't used this phone since LineageOS 7.1 because I didn't want to run it with very old security updates, so thanks for building this. I always use my previous phone as a backup,. I did a fresh install and it went flawlessly and it runs great with all my apps. I really like that I could restore the apps from my newer Moto G6 to this phone with my Google Drive backup. For the previous poster, I used the Gapps mentioned by the author.
Xxxxxxccccc. Xcccccc

New Build (osprey)
Can I just update to this build from your previous one without losing my apps, settings and/or gapps? It's been a long time since I messed with ROMs.
Thanks

I would like it to become official and to be able to opt for that rom, since the battery consumption is very high
I recently saw that LineageOS 18.1 is out for nearly 60 devices, can't wait for the release of the official build in LineageOS website for Osprey. Is there any known release date ?

If you find battery consumption on the latest unofficial build is high, chances are, it will still be high if this build becomes official at the moment. AFAIK, there are some things that need to be checked in order for a build to be certified as "Official".

Hey, since the device is really old & we don't see even that the LOS17.1 builds aren't rock solid, I wouldn't hope for 18.1 builds any time before 3-4 months. Also, I've seen people reporting the official 18.1 build are also having some issues for some device... And, as I mentioned above, there are some check boxes that need to be checked in order to gain the "Official" build tag. Hope you'll understand.
New build is up (check OP for download link)
Thanks. Great work.
Installed over previous build with 20201108 OpenGapps 11 without factory reset and booted on the first try in no time. Didn't like my Mirco SD though but nothing that couldn't be fixed with a backup, reformat and restore. Is there a newer build of OpenGapps 11 available?
Also, can't seem to add any widgets to the home screen.
New Build is Up (Gapps Included)
Most things seem to work but I can't seem to get the option to add widgets to the home screen with the long press anymore.
Any news about official lineage 18.1?
I'm using the official LineageOS 17.1 as a daily driver, so shall i upgrade to 18.1 or it still has bugs ?
Is there a specific version of recovery needed to install this, or would latest LOS 17.1 recovery work?
Also, is there a site with all old LOS 17.1 recoveries? LOS site only has links to the latest 4.
Just tested the ROM.
Yes, regarding the booting, first boot after installation took 7.5 minutes... Although subsequent boots take around one minute.
But I stumbled with serious sound problems, which I'd like to ask about here. But first, background:
XT1543 variant.
Began with ancient CyamogenMod 12 (Android 5.1.1), so I had to first find a 6.0.1 stock ROM.
Found it, entered Lineage Recovery -latest version-, formatted all /system, /data and /cache, installed stock ROM, booted it at least once.
Back to recovery, formatted again /system, /data and /cache, and tried installing first LOS 17.1, which is EOL, but latest LOS one which was official. Then installed Gaps pico.
Booted, all good apparently... except no sound.
Digging a bit more, I realized it's the speaker, or loudspeaker, the one not working at all.
Callings do work normally, sound and mic work, but all other multimedia sound don't: Youtube, ringtones, sound files...
However, they do work only when plugging 3.5 mm jack headphones/headsets. Sound is heard through them indeed. But only with them. Unplugging... no sound again.
So then I tried this 18.1 ROM. No dice: exact same problem.
@althafvly :
Can you, or someone else, help with this big issue?
Thanks.

Did it work correctly on CyanogenMod or the stock ROM? Moto G3 has some mechanical issues that may cause things like speaker (though this does not affect all sounds) or camera to not work, perhaps in your case it is not a software problem?
