Note 7 rom for V20 possible? - LG V20 Questions & Answers

Hello. Im sure many users of the v20 are people who switched from the galaxy note 7 as i did. Would there be any way to make a note 7 (or just a samsung rom in general) ROM for the V20? Its a nice phone but coming from a note 7 its not very impressive im not a fan of the LG os

So you want a touchwiz rom on the V20? Its possible but way too much work.

I would like the same but it would be a **** ton of work probably with a thousand hugs to go along with it. If even possible

Better to just wait for the note 8. As good as the note 7 was you will never recreate that in another phone brand.

It could be possible to do some kind of TouchWiz zip?? I guess...
A bit like the pixel experience. Just be a bit more work...or a lot more work? Sounds interesting though.
Meanwhile this video help?

[Q] Android 4.0 on HD2 ?

Anyone has news on having android 4.0 on HD2 ?
Former HD2 owner here, i would imagine other higher spec handsets like the SGSII and HTC Sensation,etc,etc will benefit first from ICS although ive no doubt the HD2 will also get ICS at some stage, i may have moved onto the SGSII (best ever) but the HD2 was a great phone and served me well and it's good to see an active community here still (former regular on HD2 forums)

4.0 will be ported for sure But some features wont be available of course

[Q] Hardware difference/ rom selections??

Ok,... a NOOB question.. (and yes, I have looked around, and I did not see answers to my question… or i was too dim to understand it….. :/ )
I switched from AT&T to T-Mobile. my Note 3 is is unlocked, and rooted.
This is probably a silly question, but When I look at “ROMS” and “MODS” for my phone, should I be looking for an “AT&T “ phone? or a T-MOBILE” ?? is there any actual HARDWARE difference?
I have a SM-N900A (branded AT&T) … does that mean I can not use ROMS that are for the T-Mobile note 3s? or do I have to only use ROMS that are for the AT&T note 3?
Should I just sell my AT&T note 3, and buy a T-Mobile Note 3 ??
I would like to get rid of the AT&T bloatware… especially since I am no longer on their network.
I am not trying to go over the top with my phone, and I would like to be able keep the s-pen features (but I have to admit, I still need to LEARN how to use it better!)
Another “feature” that I would like, (maybe a second question/thread?) if about tethering.. I have unlimited data on my phone, but as I understand it, they will only allow 2gigs as a hotspot. I think I read somewhere that some ROMS combine the two…
Thank you for any advice…
Danny
Questions You must put in Q&A sub-Forum.
And to AT&T You have a special Forum : http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-3-att
Depends on chip. Seeing N900 seems Samsung one so look into Exynos thread and ROMs

Please PM me & if I can help with anything I will try, I am currently running the last build put out by that dead thread, & internet restraint is keeping me from attempting to build & fix what is currently not working or needing improvement, I'm not going to lie it's not polished & battery drain is rough but its fine after powernap & force doze, if you dont mind all the hardware bugs, which others seem to have been fixing without consumer releases to match.....

i see, well samsung developments are dead pretty fast anyway, the only samung device that was good for customs was s3 gt-i9300, i dislike samsung bloatware , their devices cold be so good and get max out of every hardware it have inside if it wasnt for the ****ty samsung rom , but atleast lg have good roms as far as i can see, im planning to move over to one plus 3t anyways with their oxygen os,
samsung are nice powefull phones but the no... if there are no customs then samsungs are worthless,
i like optimized roms with no crap in it and i am quite happy with audax 12 ,
i was realy satisfied with my s3 untill it broke,
i got s6edge+ after that, though i never expected devs gave up so fast on this device unlike galaxy s3

Yea man LG products show really amazing battery life after you throw the custom on, so I was aiming for a small boost over the horrible Touchwiz UI, system size, lack of xposed compatibility, + it was always glitchy & not something I would legitimately use like a small computer, with the Octa-Core CPU this phone is literally more powerful than my desktop PC, and with TouchWiz on the phone and Windows 10 on the PC they looked identical in color scheme, bloat, just garbage in general.
look at it, samsungs batteries get bigger, but there isn't much change in uptime, witch is wierd, its also a part i don't like about samsung s6, the old lg g3 d855 i have do a way beter job though im not font of their lcd screen's while lg themselfs makes led screens to they don't add it to their phones, i stayed samsung bcuz the led screen but after i see samsung try to be on par with aple with galaxy s8 i want to move on to a difrent brand, they cant imitate apple, and if they even can i don't want to bcuz i dislike apple, why dont samsung find a difrent technoligy instead removing the headphone plug like iphones, this way music can't be listened with a good headphone, what good will it have to play lossless over sucky bluetooth, i dont know what device i am gonna take next, maby a lg or sony, one plus, many brands that folow their own way instead apple, samsung should do something about its rom 1st, look at it, lg's rom is 1.5gb while the samsungs is 8-9gb, and for what ? **** that no one uses, but i see android dying if xda give up, its the same as symbian from nokia, i perfer to have ubuntu or something, a mint wil do to, eventhough im not a linux specialist but i perfer that system since the n900 was lovely with maemo/meego

We have certainly came to alot of the exact same conclusions for sure! I have an LG G2 on Verizon that actually has the same battery size as this s6 edge+, but lasts 3x as long once I threw CM onto the G2.
On the more Linux friendly side of things look up the Meizu Pro 5, if you haven't already hear about it ill fill you in,
FlymeOS came stock
Ubuntu Touch Edition Model was available
ALL the same specs as the S6 edge+, with a higher back shooter.

sweet but i already have cyanogen 14.1 ,might in the future do a new rom once i get tired of cyanogen haha, if only samsung had more updated roms instead updated phones with old rom it would be more fun, but since cyanogen died alot customs will be gone to, soon android will die out, i dont get the wole picture of android anyways, everytime a new version name and whatwould it be, minor changes with more bloatware ? give phones a clean rom without bloadware, let people deside what they wan't to install on it, samsung have the most horrible rom and it take up to muchspaceefor what it actualy can do
i hoped that ubuntu support more devices , android is borring

Lol the sizes of the S8 firmware are rumoured to be 14GB on the Nougat updates.
I swapped over to CM13 for the fact it was under 500mb, not sure if I would wanna try 14 on this thing, I feel lucky to have 13 even working lol.
i dont try cm 13 , bcuz it have bugs still, so stayed audax, samsung roms are just oversized

So you skipped cm13, but you went to 14.1?
uhm , if you talk about my lg yes , i ran for a while dirty unicorns but the phone dont like it , auto reboots, slow startup and shutdown, so i checked out cm 14.1 and its working perfect, the old lg outperform my s6 on reaction speed with cm 14.1, sofar everything works without crashings of apps, as for cm for samsung it sucks , a few bugs i dont want to have , so samsung is audax 12,
Oh! Okay yea dude I seriously don't know what it is about LG devices but even this G2 I have will give me 2 days battery life running cm12, anything in the LG line up runs great once you get it running anything other than stock, they are like super phones.
---------- Post added at 10:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:26 PM ----------
Part of why I get so p*ssed off all the time, like how can this G2 that barely made a lollipop update manage to make this beast of a Samsung seem so garbage? Lol
because cm is a bloatless rom, its like 1.5gb extracted and if you compare that with a bloated samsung rom that is 8 times that large and is like 9 a 10gb extracted, so meaning it load alot services that actualy not even is needed, and thats what eats alot resources like battery and ram, 4gb is not even enough for samsung, so it have to kill and restart processes everytime ,

The number one RAM consuming app (Using cm13) on this s6 edge+ is literally the AndroidOS app, uses 900mb of RAM at all times,
The number one battery drain, is the screen being on, not sure if it even turns off in Doze Mode, but that currently uses like 20% of the battery up, i do have a high SoT, but pretty sure it's just a bug.
---------- Post added at 03:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:28 AM ----------
Im just not 100% sure how to lower those values at all lol, Have tried quite a few things to solve these problems like an AMOLED pixel filter to help the screen battery drain, and wakelock killers, nothing works haha.

Flash pure marshmallow on lenovo vibe p1

Hi Team,
I am using p1a42_s288 Android 6.0.1
However I want to flash stock android marshmallow on this.. Like motorola is offering..
Is it possible?? And if yes then which rom to flash.
And will all modules work like nfc, wifi and Bluetooth??
Would really appreciate the answer..
There is not such thing as pure Marshmallow available for P1. The stock Lenovo ROM is not so cluttered as i.e. Samsung ROMs. You may root it and delete or freeze unwanted apps so you wille have almost pure Narshmallow

Hi pabgar,
Thanks for reply.. I was referring to the rom Motorola offers in their phones.. It not only half the size of what vibe p1 has but is also volte enabled..
This would free up some GBs.. Although don't really need as got 32 internal+32 external.. ++ have also disabled unneeded Google Apps like movies and music etc..
I do agree that lenovo rom is not as bloated as Samsung toch viz.. Also if put motorola rom i should also expect nougat update when motorola releases them if lenovo decides to skip on nougat update for lenovo..
Would like to hear your views on this..
Well: what you think about is porting I mean taking a ROM from one smartphone and modify it this way so it will fit to different phone. It is not a straightforward job and requires skilled developer. As far as I know nobody did this and I think nobody will do as Vibe P1 is not so popular phone.
You cannot just take Motorola ROM and flash to Lenovo P1. There are hardware differences so you will shurely brick P1
Thanks for the reply again pabgar..
I too had same thing in mind about hardware differences.. And u just confirmed it..
So definitely will not try the stunt.. Can't afford another phone.. Hehehe..
Guess will have to wait for lenovo to release a nougat update hopefully..
Btw, when u say hardware differences, do mean by motherboard and the chip / processor or everything from screen to button as moto x play and vibe p1 both have same chip set, gpu, and processor.. But not a physical home button in moto as there is in vibe p1.. As per GSM arena.. Although sim and network capability differ widely.. I understand this will definitely affect usability..
Just asking as not much of developer..

I mean everything. There may be very slight differences in example: same chipset but different modem chip, diferent magnetic sensor, and button or display so the ROM will brick P1

Pity but I do not think it is going to happen. They do not want us to use our good phones for our lifetime. They want us to buy new from them i.e. Lenovo P2. This is money.
Thanks again..
What u r saying is so true.. We are sheep who just need to be shaved for money every few months..
Like iSheep we have become aSheep.. iSheep atleast updates but aSheep have to buy new phones..
Lenovo atleast gave marshmallow for vibe.. Thats a relief..
Indeed. I still have my Galaxy Note 3. It is still a pretty powerfull smartphone capable to run Marshmallow or supposedly Nougat but Samsung ended on first, buggy Lollipop 5.0. All those cyanogenmod derivatives for N3 are "almost" perfect. Almost means everyday pain in the a..s, FCs or reboots.
So Note 3 is still with me working as high end multimedia remote controller ( as is infrared port equipped )

And that is the good news. After so many phones in my hands ( some are not listed below) i must say that P1 is the best smartphone I ever had. It is not most powerfull, not the best display or camera but it is rock solid . During almost a year with it I had NEVER any: problems, FCs, spontaneous reboots . The battery works for me from 2 to 4 days of my moderate usage. The only drawback I found is the emulated gyroscope sensor thus: I cannot fly my Parrot quadrocopter or make photosphere photos but the hell: I still have my Note 3 for that
I intended to buy P2 but I consider: if I really need to.
You will never guess what phone I just digged out from the closet and use as my business phone SonyEricsson W995

Is this the NEW S4 mini?

A lot of us with their S4 Mini have long been asking if anyone knows of a small form factor phone that could replace the S4 Mini. Well Essential may have the answer
https://twitter.com/essential/status/1181734328130252802?s=09
And Andy Rubin (founder of Essential Phones & Android)
https://twitter.com/Arubin/status/1181688540540764160?s=09
I don't know if the community could support it as it was (still it is) for s4 mini. Maybe s10e could be a good solution, sadly bigger than this but smaller than the average of phones.

I know I'm necro'ing hard here, but god that phone is ugly and really really tall. I think the best alternative is the Xperia Z5 Compact. In fact, I might make a new thread about it!
