Discussions on Dirty Unicorns Android 7.0 Builds - Nexus 6 General

Hi,
I would like to share my thoughts on DU Android 7.0 test builds with you. I have been running DU 7.0 Test Builds on my Shamu for the last 3 days. Everything's working fine. Doze feature works well too. Best ROM for our Shamu. Good SOT.
Multi Window feature works seamlessly. They say it is a test build but for me this seems a stable and solid build. I suggest you try DU on your Shamu and share your thoughts here.
Thanks.
Update: If anyone having "SystemUI stopped" issue, please try DU 7.0 19/11/2016 build. It works well.

which gapps?
opengapps are good?

I am using OpenGapps 7.0 micro. It works well.

@Dhamukanna Dirty Unicorns is no longer to be discussed or posted about in XDA any longer, as far as I know.

The best ROM there is. I do flash the raven tech desolated kernel and its a great kernel. The one that comes with this ROM in impressive too. I would just like to see a theme engine on it for a little more customization

Installed it after reading your post, seems promising. DPI thing is impressive.

Just wondering why this was posted dev section?

I never had random reboot issues on DU.
Make sure you have latest bootloader and radio installed on your Shamu.
What Gapps did you use? I use Open Gapps 7.0 micro. No issues. Wipe everything except Internal storage. Install DU, Gapps and then reboot.
If the issue persists, please use previous dated open Gapps and let me know.

They are working on the Theme Engine stuff. Check DU's Google+ page.

I used the open nano gapps. 42R radio and bootloader should be the latest. it was driving me crazy so i had to wipe. will try again once some more features are added

The magpie substratum and biohazard are working well. Also vivid. Just FYI I also seen posts not to share test builds so I'm sorry if reporting working themes is a also a no go.

[ROM]CyanogenMod 14.1 jgcaap builds

Hello everyone, after a great success on building roms for bacon device. I've decided to share my work with other devices. So now I share with oneplus 3. After positive feedback on the rom today I'll publish here the rom.
Kernel and Device tree are untouched so everything should be working smoothly. You can use a custom kernel in case you like, but i'll only give support to stock kernel as I do not yet own an device. So CM bugs are basically also our bugs, and from what I know there is none. Still I'm open to suggestions.
Download
GAPPS
Features:
Updated SQL to 3.15.1
Optimized Build with custom toolchain on ROM and Kernel
Proguard 5.3
Snapdragon Camera
More coming soon
I'm a very praticle user, and my aim will be to get a very fluid stable system, at same time with speed and battery, keeping most stock possible with the optimizations which will improve for real our experience.
Thanks

Loved your builds on oneplus one when I was using it for month.
I will try soon.
Between stock cm from 13 till now, having strange bug fp scanner, sometimes fp sensor stop working, we need manually turn on screen.
If same happens, I will report back.
Also same was in stock cm13 but not happening in @Sultanxda rom.
also, this is not happening in aosp based roms, so its deep in cm.
.
thanks,
Jgcaap has always been my inspiration , and one of the reasons I optimize my ROMs heavily . Gonna surely give this a try , bud
Hey its good to see
flashed it yeah
ROM Flashing steps please..
Opengapps should be OK? The Gapps link in AFH in the OP post #1 doesn't seem to be a valid link.
Also FW version recommended? 3.5.5?

@jgcaap : as mentioned earlier, there is same but in your rom also.
Fingerprint sensor stops working some time, need to wake screen manually.
Also, torch gesture not working.
Please fix these issues.
Nothing happen when switching profiles by built-in button. Any idea how to fix that? I trying to change in settings few options but without solution.
Used your ROMs on the OPO.
Everything working great for now apart from the known CM bugs. FPS fails sometimes and alert slider not working?

Use notification slider APP from playstore, as a tempory workaround
Mine is working. After few reboot, it was alive.
So for now, the only bug is cm bug I think ( battery icon cannot be changed )

Best rom on this phone for STABILITY and SPEED?

Have been on true pure since day one... Great stability and speed. Can anyone recommend anything else though? Am looking for a reason to try something new.
As title says , all I really care about is stability and speed. Thx

If you're looking for a 7.1 ROM, try out dirty unicorns. They are not on XDA, but they have a Google+ page and a website with downloads for Clark. It is one of the most stable ROMS right know for this device. If you wanna stay on marshmallow I'm pretty sure Tru pure is still a great ROM, and you probably wouldn't wanna change.
I've gone back to stock with this device as every custom rom that I have tried has had some issue or another, making them unstable. The Brazilian stock nougat TWRP backup that is available on this forum is working surprisingly well on my device, an XT1572 being used in the UK.

None of the ROM'S do gestures as well as the stock gestures work, such as waving hand to wake the phone..etc..but they still work fairly well. Dirty unicorns also has the other moto gestures such as flip the phone to silence among others.
+1 for dirty unicorns. I'm running on their latest official release and its pretty good.
The latest build of stock 6.0.1 + Root + Xposed.
Stock... pure, untouched stock is the best for stability and speed, no doubt about it.
If you mean what CUSTOM rom is best, BrokenOS for MM or Dirty Unicorns for Nougat... Both are good, but neither one is as stable as stock.

After testing Tesla, DU, RR, crDrpid, and tipsy, I can say DU is best nougat ROM and like @acejavelin said BrokenOS is best Marshmallow ROM
I also agree that stock untouched is best way to go besides custom ROMs
i am using AISP rom and it is working well so far. Fast and smooth so far with huge amount of apps in background, also phone is not overhearting
no bootlops, no crashes etc
Ok, I guess I should probably flash a stock rom image then... Where can I find an official link?

This is a lot more stable then the majority of 8.0.0 ROMs out right now for the OP3/T, with the exception being Validus I think. Do you know how to swap back button with recent apps? I don't natively use my phone the way the ROM has it set by default, but I am sure I can get used to it. Couldn't find anything in settings.

For Validus I use the official GZOSP GAPPS they link in the thread which work flawlessly. For anything else I use ARM64 8.0 Pico from OpenGAPPs
The only problem I currently have with Validus is the battery drain. Once Paranoid Android or Dirty Unicorns comes out with Android 8.0 I will probably use those ROMs.

Omni has the best battery life so far from custom Oreo ROMs ...

What's the best Oreo ROM today?

By best I mean, lesser bugs. No scrolling stutter, good battery back up and etc.
I have tried Oreo ROMs before the official Oxygen Oreo comes out, now that it has been out for about a month (?). I think Oreo custom ROM has also improved. I just want your input guys. Thanks!
Also, don't include OxygenOS-based ROMs. So either AOSP or LineageOS-based.
BlackScreenOS
I've tried liquid remix, aicp, omnirom, aosip and the last come resurrection remix... Well i found that the last one is the better.. Long battery life, no lag, the rom is smooth and have all kind of personalizations
BUT i can't understand why i'm in completely mood with Oos 5.0.2 it's simply perfect imo... And i've been always the first to install a custom rom on my device
Now that substratum is working i think oos has nothing to envy at the other roms, rather it has face unlock oos cam etc... and it's for sure the smoothest rom on this phone
I haven't found one yet that fits your description. Tried DU, Screwed, Aquarios, Phoenix, Omni, Liquid Remix, AOKP and CrDroid. All have bugs, are less than smooth or both.
Best is subjective, but if you go with Codename Phoenix you won't regret!

I don't have your problems, maybe you have some apps/tweak cause this issues or simply Xposed / Module
The problem with DU is that the maintainer for this device decided to stop releasing RC builds after number two because *he has enough feedback" while other phones are getting updated DU builds. Unless you compile the source code yourself you are stuck with an outdated version of DU that is missing many of the ROMs features. I was a big fan of DU before buying an OP5 but on this phone it has never been anything but a substandard ROM. The Nougat version was buggy garbage and based on the attitude with the RC builds Oreo for the OP5 probably won't be any better.
I've only tried RR roms, lots of problems (maybe it's my fault, bad flash or idk) so I'm back to stock. I don't know why but since Oreo I can't go on custom rom, feels like they're more laggy.

When it comes to camera, Phoenix is the go! As I says OOS Cam is fully working. It's not pre-installed. Just download the latest apk from apk mirror and install it. There's a delay when starting up the camera, you will just need to wait a little bit,then everything works perfect. Even clearer picture than on OOS itself.

I currently have Unlegacy Android 7.1.2 June 2020 build installed, but i'm planning to downgrade. Is omni roms a derivative of some other rom or is it independent? I don't like Lineage OS 13 and Slim 6 is a derivative of LOS. I have not tried omni 6 as of now.
I just got this tablet from a friend. I tried factory reset on the existing stock rom it had, I installed 4 different custom roms and I then went back to stock rom(4.2.2). This thing is so friggin laggy. Was there ever a time(rom) that this thing worked properly? I just want it for browsing, and it takes FOREVER to load a page(if it loads at all). As is, it is a useless piece of junk.
yeah I've just found it inside a closed. Flashed a few "newish roms" and it lags a lot even in the UI and random issues like Missing the top menu until I go into settings.
Will try to go back to 4.x and see if it lags there too. I remember it to be usable once booted.
It seems to heat a lot. Don't know if these things have a thermal paste.
edit cm11 2020 update works ok. but i need 5.0 up
try slim roms. i just flashed 6.0 and seems fine, 2020 security updates on andi's website

I'm sorry to hear of your troubles. Out of those 4 custom roms you've tried, were any of them based off android 6? If all of them were android 7 based, then there's the problem. As of now, any custom rom based off android 7 are unstable. If you want stability, then go with Unlegacy Android 6, Lineage OS 13, Slim6 and Omni6(highly recommended).

Andi omni ROMs are quite good for performance and battery just don't install gapps. But I have not tried unlegacy yet but other than that I kind tried everything else

Slim 6 is like the worst for me
And the heating isn't exactly the rarest thing for this thing. If you want to sacrifice some of the apps you may use that require gapps then ditch google services entirely it improves performance and battery
Then for YouTube use vanced and for the app store use aurora

As is, it is a useless piece of junk.

The answer is simple. Ditch gapps

I'm sorry to hear of your troubles. Out of those 4 custom roms you've tried, were any of them based off android 6? If all of them were android 7 based, then there's the problem. As of now, any custom rom based off android 7 are unstable. If you want stability, then go with Unlegacy Android 6, Lineage OS 13, Slim6 and Omni6(highly recommended).

Yeah, avoid all android 7 based custom roms for this device.

Why tho nougat worked nice. It only starts lagging when you flash gapps so I don't

I'm not too sure about it since i flashed gapps, but you would have to flash f droid apk with TWRP. Aurora Store is what you'd use to download the file manager

I currently have Unlegacy Android 7.1.2 June 2020 build installed, but i'm planning to downgrade. Is omni roms a derivative of some other rom or is it independent? I don't like Lineage OS 13 and Slim 6 is a derivative of LOS. I have not tried omni 6 as of now.

slim 6 is the worst rom for me by far i think omni is independent
im using andi's ports of omnirom

Download F Droid apk with another device such as a pc or another android. Send the apk to a micro sd card and put in your GT2.
If your GT2 have TWRP, use it to flash F Droid apk.
If successful, download Aurora Store via F Droid.
I always went with gapps, so these instructions are not 100% accurate, i hope i could help you out.
