For anyone who doesn't know; MoKee Nightlies are available for Thea, if anyone wants to try. It's pretty good.

Their original dev (and unkwon) must create a post for more detailed information...! But thanks for the advice.
Obviously. They haven't yet! Just telling people it's there.
It's pretty good, but at the moment Bluetooth is not working, can't connect to my Android Wear, so back to CM12 but I'll keep trying =)

Were you using a nightly or release build? Bluetooth is working fine for me. I'm on the latest release build. Smooth and stable.

Yep it was nightly 2015-05-23 , later I'll try the new nightly and if that does not work, then I will try the release build. Cheers for the info =)
How good is it? Is it better than CM?
I prefer it to CM. The release builds are great. No issues for me.
I4ve been on this ROM for a day now and it works like a charm. Mokee is really great. No buigs or FC for now
EDIT : GPS works for You ? I can't get a fix.... Did a clean flash of Mokee but still no GPS Fix
EDIT #2 : OK now it works, just have o erase modemst1 and modemst2 with fastboot
Hi everyone,
I've been enjoying Mokee for a week, flashed nightlys every two days and just discovered that their OTA system just download the changes from the rom installed to the new build. I tried to DL it and flash but I've an endless bootanimation after.
Is it the same for you too? Thanks

I don't use OTA.
I heard that it broke ever, then they fixed. I'll link to him.
Try using the Release builds instead. More stable and OTAs are every week or so.
Yes but releases are odexed and xposed does not work with odexed roms
Ok, I don't ever use Xposed with custom roms. Just stock.
Caution ! The 28/06 nightly doesn't work !
I will go back to CM because the 29/06 crashes when I use a theme.
Great rom but I honestly can't see the advantage over CM. Ota would be a plus but it fails.
Back on CM with Cyandelta for incremental updates
Another update on Mokee on Thea :
- OTA works great but you must not remove /system apps and modify build.prop however the phone will bootloop.
- OTA doesn't work with Xposed as well, bootloop
- Release versions (odexed ROM) are really smooth and seem to be more battery friendly than nightly releases...
- The ROM is bugfree, I've been using Mokke for two weeks now and no reboot, no freeze, perfect experience

Same here, I'm really happy with Mokee (running release version), no bugs so far and smooth performance. However I tried as you did to download incremental update through Mokee Center and automatically flash through recovery (TWRP), but got endless boot animation, had to download full ROM and flash after wiping system/data/cache/dalvik.
Does anyone know if Mokee can be upgraded simply by flashing full ROM zip without wiping system and data?
Tried again updating through Mokee Center, this time downloading full ROM. Didn't get endless bootloop, but performance was really bad, moto g suddenly rebooted 2 times, very unstable. I decided to wipe all and reflash manually through TWRP. Working fine now... it seems that auto-update are not working very well. Anyone who didn't get those problems and successfully updated through Mokee Center?
I managed to have incremental updates working on release versions. You must not touch anything in /system (you can freeze apps however)
I've been updating like that for two releases and it works
Just a quick for OTA updates on nightly builds with Xposed.
Ota works if you uninstall xposed with the uninstaller zip before flashing OTA !
I'm done flashing roms. Lotta awesomeness but lotta bugs too. Currently im on ASOP Extended ROM 7.1.1 with TWRP (Hybrid) 3.0.2 and I want to go back. Way back, to lollipop or something. Where everything is stable and it works. Somewhere oxygen OS.
1)So would the method be a twrp flash of official firmware ?
2) I want to retain superuser priviledge and TWRP Hybrid. How do I do that after flashing official stuff since the firmware resets everything to original ?
3) I'm just looking for battery life. Would you suggest reverting to oxygen os lollipop or marshmallow ? ( NO I DON'T NEED VOLTE PLEASE SPARE ME. I JUST NEED 2 SIMS TO WORK.) (got a better rom ? suggest !)
Thanks IN ADVANCE XDA ! You've been great !
Hello,
It's been almost a little over a year since I was last really into android customization. Since it's been so long it has become clear to me that my phone is outdated in many ways. I'm still running OxygenOS 2.2.1 with Android 5.1.1. I've been wanting to update up to Android N (7.x.x) for a long time now, but haven't seen any real stable roms or haven't really had the time to look for one. Now I've finally found my self with free time and ready upgrade my rom. I've just faced couple of problems, I can't really find what should I do when upgrading from 5.1.1 to 7.x.x since no-one is really doing that anymore. I remember reading sometime back that if you dont have the right firmwares you'll brick ur phone, and I wouldn't really want to go through that hassle at the moment. Is it still a thing or should it be just fine for me to flash a new rom just on top of this? (Ofc with clearing memory etc) Other question that is in my mind is that is there any critical bugs in Android N roms? It's bit unclear to me since there are such many roms that have their status as work in progress or beta etc, but some roms have status as stable. Are there any roms that I should clearly avoid? Im not new to this so I don't really need any deep info how to do everything etc, just a bit of a oversight on how things are going atm.
Thanks.
first of all is ur device rooted?? If yes then install the latest twrp recovery...then take a backup.. and flash any nougat rom which u like...If at all u would need Volte support then u l have to flash the 3.5.7 firmware..or else the 3.1.0 firmware works fine with most of the nougat roms..some nougat roms i would recommend are AICP, Resurrection Remix and AOSP extended .... In my suggestion u should probably first upgrade the Oxygen Os on ur device through official updates via OTA atleast upto the 3.5.6 firmware
there's no need to update until 3.5.6, unless you aren't going to plan staying with OOS [the only "stable" firmware which provides you VoLTE working, but it's still M-based and not N].
as @mhd athiq said, unlock your bootloader [just in case you still haven't done it before] then update your TWRP recovery to the latest version.
then flash the incrementals OTAs until OOS 3.1.x and you are good to go to flash any custom ROM which is N-based.
to avoid any mistake, please make a EFS backup via terminal [just to have a backup of your modems] and save the files to a safe location.
I don't have a specific ROM to suggest to you, but in my experience I have found the CAF/AOSP-based ones to be the ones with the best battery backup and less bugs then LOS-based ones.
I have used happily for a few months CypherOS version 3.5.1 [not the latest one, I find it quite unstable as the developers tried to implement OMS].
sidenote:
flashing N-based custom ROMs upon OOS 3.5.6 firmwares gives random reboots and unstable network in many cases/scenarios.
so don't update to that OOS version unless you have a mandatory VoLTE feature required [but you'll have to live with random reboots and poor network stability].
Hello folks.
I was tracking down a mobile data problem I was having...as part of the troubleshooting, I was installing a bunch of different ROMs (LOS nougat, RR nougat, RR oreo). I found the solution to my problem after installing RR oreo, but the ROM itself was not the solution; it was a configuration problem.
Anyway, I'd just as soon not reinstall again, so my question: is RR oreo stable enough for everyday use? Or should I go back to nougat before I configure all the apps on my phone?
Thanks.
Both of are as good as it can be.
it depend on personal choice.
Both are good, some people have a few bugs with rotation on oreo I think.
No issues on my end worth mentioning.
However the battery drain is there on all oreo roms, more than nougat. On my old stock battery i get 4-5 hours SoT, and it seems like that for most people. Depending what you do.
Removing NFC is supposed to help, haven't tried myself.
But for myself, I've tried RR and now trying AEX. Both are fantastic, RR offers a little more customization and wake screen on waving. Crdroid has an oreo rom now too I believe that I haven't tried yet.
Do a clean flash to avoid problems. It also requires latest twrp or you'll likely receive an error on flashing.
I've rooted with magisk and all is well.

My only previous phone was an HTC OneX+. It was not an S-off capable phone. I believe this is why I had to regularly update the to the latest stock ROMs in order to update things like the radio firmware. TWRP and other tools didn't have access to R/W all data points in the system.
Does the Potter (USA) require doing this to update everything fully like radio firmware? Or, will updating to oreo or pie custom ROMs fully update everything to the latest and greatest versions?
Thank you anyone who can help.

If you're updating to oreo custom rom then no you don't need firmware update. You can flash on top of nougat.
If you want pie then definitely do the update to official oreo first as pie roms depend on oreo blobs and updating from nougat to pie custom could cause issues.
After/around oct 18 all the roms moved to oreo base.

Thank you. I'll go ahead revert to stock and update stock before going on to other custom roms.

Just flash a twrp flashable stock oreo build that should do it.
