So,
we got root....next question is will we get a cyanogen mod or a clean/optimized rom at least?
Cause a rooted device without any mods and optimization would be nothing.
Can't even uninstall brand apps.
And yes I used search, could't find anyone saying he is working on a custom rom.
Thx.
theres no bootloader access so you cant flash custom roms.

if the x10i is rooted, does that give it the possibility to run a custom rom? or a higher version of the android os? if so where can i find all those roms, they seem to be well hidden, even an easy explaination or a simple how to seems to be limited. except for here since i got my device rotted in like a minute so any help regarding a rooted device as to what one can do with it and some cleus about roms and such.
much thanks.

The current root is not the full root like the other devices. I believe the kernel still needs to be accessed in order for us to be able to install Custom Roms.
Devs... correct me if I'm wrong.
custom roms not yet possible.. devs working on bootloader.
thread closed..
Hey guys, I decided to flash a custom rom onto my i9505 a few days back and i'm wondering how I'd get the S4 version of S-Health back.
Thanks.
Bump, I'd really like to keep this custom ROM.
Luck.
Likely, the only way is to steal the apk out of the stock rom, then try to install it on your phone in the custom rom, and hope it doesn't require TW.
I tired that, it doesnt work.

Here is a working apk
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2328432
It should work with TW based roms, it might work with 'hybrid' roms, it won't work with AOSP roms (at least not as is & without significant re-working/porting).
But as you didn't even bother to give us such basic info as what rom you're using, how do you honestly expect people to give you meaningful help ? You've been here long enough to know what info you need to provide if you're going to ask for help in Q&A.
Hi all!
I have successfully rooted my LG L5X (LG-E450f), and now I want to install some other ROM, but I haven't found any stable or nightly release for it.
Does anyone know if there is some workaround, with Cyanogenmod preferably, for the LG L5X?
Another thing is that I haven't been able to install Clockworkmod successfully on this device, so if anyone knows how to install CWM first, it would be very helpful.
Thanks in advance!

if you read here

the l5 II has a locked bootloader and we cant boot into cwm without a secure boot error. hence no one has pored cyanogenmod because we cant flash it.
the only thing we have is some modifications I made to the device located here

Any way to get rid of the stock rom??

Ok so, if not Cyanogen, is there any way to port another ROM to this device? or actually upgrade the stock ROM to KitKat maybe??
Its just i dont like the restrictive stock roms, i've always been a --rooting/CWM/custom roms/cyanogenmod/-- user, and i just cant keep up with this stock rom since i moved on to this device.
So if there is any work for this device in progress, it would be really appreciated
Thanks in advance!
As long as they dont unlock bootloader there wont be any custom roms, i guess.

@NextgenBold yip this is true.
there are certain apps/framework on this device that make it bootup
so it is very difficult to port
we cannot use the ordinary methods like this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1908008
because certain apps need to load on start up otherwise it will give you an infinite boot.
so you cannot change the framework ether because then the apps wont load and the phone wont boot up.
I dont know this for sure, I am just saying this is what happened when I tried to port CM
I am happy with this device because I am not a genuise if I had a device with CWM and Custom roms I would not be learning anything and I would not be contributing.
having This phone creates challenges and everyone that does any work on this device is respected.
So, long story short my mum had an iPhone 5, and she wanted a larger phone. The 6 and 6 Plus were way too expensive, so I said to get the Note 4. She loved it, at first. She then started to get more and more angry at it, since TouchWiz crashed often. So I said I'd custom ROM it, after all, I had done the same to my step dad's S5, he's pleased now. BUT, CM12 nightlies aren't exactly stable, and she gets crashing and stuff. Plus, she wants to be able to use her banking app, since it blocks phones with root. It works fine on my OnePlus One with Paranoid Android. Is there any kind of ROM for the Note 4, any PA ROM, any ROM without root? And no, I'm not putting it back on a TouchWiz based ROM.
How can you have a rom without root? You've already rooted it to put a custom rom on it.
Anyways I'm on TeKXodus 5.01 rom right now and its WAY better than stock. Check out his thread.

You can install a rom and then simply un-root it afterwards. This gives you custom rom without root

The SuperSu Pro app has a Full Unroot feature in the settings. It might be there in the unpaid version too, although there are likely other ways as well.

Alright thanks, its just CM nightlies come with built in root and stuff. They aren't exactly stable however. Is there any PA-like ROMs for the Note 4 here?

I see this very often, but it isn't true.
you don't need to root for a custom rom.
on most devices (including the note 4) you need a custom recovery and an unlocked bootloader(it's often unlocked out of the box) for a custom rom.
some device(like gen8 archos devices) even allow custom roms with the official recovery thanks to a developer mode, or they don't have a signature check and just let you flash custom roms through an official updating utility(such as the old advent vega which accepted custom roms flashed through nvflash)
Hi there. I am kinda new on these things.
I am at my home right now. I have the time to backup everything.
I am on stock right now , I have started getting a bit of lags here and there.
Should I root and install a custom rom?
And if yes , what is the best combination of kernel and rom for the best performance and battery.

DO NOT INSTALL CUSTOM ROM, if you have to ask that question.
On a serious note, a factory reset will take care of all lags.Rooting is for those who have a spare phone,want to play around and can afford brick sooner or later. Moto has determined stock to be best for all others.

I am not so new dude. I have installed custom roms many a times..on my canvas a1.
On that device , it was good bcoz the device itself wasn't so good.
But this moto g5 plus is a nice phone. That's why I'm asking whether i should install custom rom or not

Acknowledged !! and my apologies.
Rooting and custom roms work well on MotoG+.On some of the latest Oreo roms I was playing around with in the past couple of months,the camera app broke more often than once.If you can live with that in exchange for performance, LineageOS 15 and Pixel Experience roms worked great.
But as with any phone, you have to play around for the best of latest or for stability.
Just my two cents .

What about the battery life?
Can i use greenify etc with these roms?
Thanks for the reply
Install only if a stock firmware higher or equivalent to your current version is available. Else you will not be able to go back to stock. If you attempt to downgrade you will run into problems with bootloaders.

Battery life is pretty good on the custom rom side. All updated ROMs are now Android 8.1 and are 64 bit. I usually get 6-7+ hours screen on time and switch between every rom that's released For battery and customizations I recommend AEX or Validius. Also, you can use greenify on any of the custom ROMs and root with magisk and pass safety net as well. I Also recommend you download from telegram group as those links are updated more often than xda.
Telegram links are:
t.me/g5pluslinks ---> All new ROMs released no chat
t.me/motog5plus ---> Release of new ROMs / kernels but lot of chat too.
t.me/MotoG5PlusStuff ---> Collection of all kinds of camera apps.
Too late. I failed to root. And now my camera doesn't work. :Cries:
Gonna try flashing stock (some 92 version ) which has the Nov patch. Older one failed(downgrade).
Help me if you can. PLEASE.
I can explain everything I did.

I believe that using custom kernel was the fix to that issue, not 100% sure as I never had the issue myself. Also, if you decide to go to a custom rom you won't have that issue (it only affects stock rom). Another option if you want to stick on stock is find the thread on here for TWRP flashable stock ROMs and use latest one for your phone.
I'm not able to select SD card storage in the recovery mode. What's the issue here? How do I fix it?
