Please enlighten us here and share your methods, I want root for a few reasons (Viper4android and dual speaker mod mainly and the permanent removal of bloat and clearing the system to be better optimized)
Much appreciated.

What is this duel speaker mod you speak of? I'm out of the loop. Haven't been rooted in 5 months, feels weird.

It's a mod which enables the earpiece speaker with any audio/ video giving the phone a "stereo" experience and your videos and songs will sound louder. Just think HTC dual speakers.

Just used this and it worked.
Just install using the install.bat
There is a uninstall.bat as well.
My phone is a little laggy after rooting. So I can't attribute it's behavior to this mod. I still have to refine the necessary lag root issues.

Anyone know if WiFi Calling and/or VOLTE are working?

Well wifi calling works until I installed the zip to remove the VOLTE icon.So as long as you don't mind the hurricane type of icon in your notification bar you won't have a problem

My S-Health doesnt work either, see ss below.
Xposed has not been officially released for Nougat, last I checked anyways. I've been waiting for it myself.

If you uninstall s health and then install and older version before 5.0 it will work and then you can update to the latest s health within the app. That's what worked for me at least

So what your saying is use Samsung S health 4.8 apk and it will work for root
---------- Post added at 01:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:36 AM ----------
Also,the duel speaker mod works with Nougat and it's not broken meaning it works with everything!In 6.0 some music apps didnt work like blackplayer,utube,spotify,stock samsung music and video apps and such now works.
I reset value for audio to 93.Keep it between 90-95 and with Nougat atom dolby mod.The phone is screaming!!!
---------- Post added at 01:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:44 AM ----------
My s7 is so smooth its hard to believe its rooted with eng.bootloader.It feels like stock with no lag or stuttering and or freezing.I let my 7 and 8 year old play with phone for testing and loving it!
Governor set to ondemand
Swapper 3.91 gb +50% swapper
Set on performance or extream performance mod

Not sure why people are having problems with S Health. I haven't factory wiped my phone so basically Nougat was an over the air update. I did reinstall stock a few times because of wifi calling issues but I've gotten those worked out.
S Health works fine for me To all of you that can't get S Health work did you disable Knox by chance?

I'm an idiot and messed up the build.prop and forgot to back it up can somebody help me with the stock one thanks

Hopefully tot method will work.
Currently it cannot be done with Kingroot. We need to use recovery method (TWRP) in order to install SuperSU.
Merely hanging a note if anything comes of it. ?

I like it. Screen is nice. Battery life is great (got over 8 SOT first night). It never gets hot. PERFECT size for reading comic books.
Negatives: Might be slightly underpowered. I've felt some lags and frame skipping in the animations. Speaker is not great. Not having root is a (hopefully temporary) drag. "Android OS" is keeping my tablet from deep sleeping and I don't know how to tell what is actually keeping it awake.

Sorry to be so off topic here but after using the tablet for a few more days I can say the only game it really "struggled" with (frame skipping) was Lara Craft Go. I've played Limbo, KotOR and others since and only ever caught the occasional lag. I'm very impressed with the Snapdragon 617, so impressed I ordered a Moto G that uses the same chip.
Can you play 60fps video in YouTube? Mine doesn't display it as an option (will only go up to 480p in videso with 720p/60fps and 1080p/60fps

There used to be v10b source code and it disappeared two days ago. Today there is source code for a newer version v10c: LGV521WG_Marshmallow_Android_V521WG_v10c.
So it means we should be able to root our tablet once anyone pulls the new firmware v10c.

Are You Guys Using Any Sound Mod In Nexus 5x

Well Yesterday i found this Sound mod XTREMEMusicâ„¢ but i tried many things and roms like CM13 And Pure Nexus It Was not working for me.
So i want to ask from you. Are you using any sound mod that works perfectly on our Nexus 5x
if yes do tell us the name of mod

Pure Nexus. Working perfectly.
I can't stand sound mods that involve more than one app. Just the other week I found something that looked promising, installed it, and then I had viper/Dolby/some Sony eq app/ and some terminal commands. I hated it. I don't see the point in it. Unless you have a few hundred dollars in any type of sound system, and even then most of the tuning can be done from amps/eq
The most Ill go is viper4android ALONE. and even when I do that, I have to modify my goto interactive governor tweaks to eliminate clipping and distortion when the screen turns off.

Try Arise. You will only need to set up V4A, nothing else. If you experience crackling with it, try sonophilo's setprop instead of the default one (instructions in the thread), it usually eliminates all distortions for me. And the quality on the "Numbers" release is hands down much superior to basic V4A installation (i am using also the optional Atmos add-on, i use it instead of v4a equalizer and it's better imo) .
the ARISE sound mod is working for me... it work mm like stock and pa and also works on android nougat
Arise numbers is the best I've used so far. Much better sound quality than just using V4A or ViperAtmos.

Should work but not sure since I've just tried Arise with Pure Nexus.
hello, can anybody teach me how to install ARISE step by step? because I flashed V4A on PN with EX kernel and although I didnt have 'driver' issues, the v4a doesnt effect the sound itself. already tried changing values in EQ but no effect.

Like or dislike Android Pie

How's people liking Android Pie?
I installed on my stock OG Pixel XL and I think it actually runs faster, or seems to. I turned off the swipe gesture for the home key at first to get used to the rest if the changes. I just turned it back on and I am getting used to that now. All in all I am happy.

OG PIXEL XL, here and one day in, I'm digging it. Hoping for root, Substratum, Dolby Atmos & Gravity Box
Root is already working, just flash magisk 16.7 beta.
I'm rooted and using elemental kernel, so far so good.
The OS itself feels a lot different than N or O, especially when using the pixel launcher.

Substratum will never happen as they changed overlays. Say good bye to it.
The others I never used.
I personally love android 9. The new gestures are cool. Its speedy, battery life is real good.

You're right, about root. I guess I was thinking outside the Pixel realm. It's my backup phone. I could probably live without all the others, but Dolby Atmos. The rest are aesthetics, but I love me some car audio jamming.
I don't, his however love the Pixel and my Moto Z2 Play, probably won't get Pie.

I have a weird issue where the battery icon stays lit up when charging while off. It them doesn't turn off when the phone is unplugged?

Overall, it is fine. Pretty snappy especially considering I updated with the -w removed instead of doing a complete install. I haven't messed much with the new look and feel features since stock O was just fine to me. One bug is that when I click on/dismiss a notification the icon stays there sometimes until I swipe down on the curtain again. The new volume quick access that includes buzz and mute is nice though I don't like that just turning down volume from the main screen now controls media instead of ringer. The only thing I don't care for is the new window animation (app window bouncing open for lack of a better explanation). Seems like a waste of resources with no functional benefit. 2 apps that caused messages that they were designed for an older version of Android, but both worked fine and the message no longer pops up after hitting the OK button the first time you see it. All in all, P was a well though out and largely bug-free update. Clearly, it was extremely stable and ready for a general release that was earlier than any of us where expecting. I haven't seen anyone talking about reverting to O. That is always a good sign.

Substratum works on Pie, you just have to have root.

Does your AOSP build pickup your sim card?

I stand corrected. I tried it on 8/6 using the regular Substratum app. Updated to Magisk 16.7 beta (not sure if that's important), downloaded Substratum beta v999, and it works. Thanks for proving me wrong y'all! My scorched retinas are forever in your debt.

I have a test build with it but I have not had time to flash it yet. I'll get to it tonight
It's pretty snappy. I'm digging all the little nuances, like the volume popup and the in call bubble that shows on top of other apps.
While using the phone, the clock in the upper left, catches my eye and I think it's a notification.
The nav pill is ok. I have a little trouble switching to previous app.
I signed up for the DIGITAL WELL BEING app. I don't know if it will be very useful, to me, but time will tell.
I do appreciate being able to darken the quick settings tray, but don't understand why notifications are left with white backgrounds.
I don't like having to pull down, twice, to get to settings.
ETA, I found another thing I like, the select text, expanding window and the copy / paste experience.

at this point its safe to assume there will be anything new apart from security updates xD
I gave up a while ago from getting any fix. This phone is abandoned by Xiaomi
Audio channel swap in usb
Anyone with audio channel swapped over USB? I was using wireless headphone for 1 and a half months before and then switched to usb type c adapter. I noticed the left right channel swap first when playing COD mobile. Only over USB not on wireless. Anyone has this bug? I think it came on August security patch. Before that audio over USB worked fine. I have tried different adapters, problem still persists. l think it is similar to the bug that happened on OnePlus phones. I haven't gotten the sept update.
I have passed to Pixel Extended, much better than stock, all works very well.
You should think to change...
Any bugs that I need to know in pixel extended? Also how are the security updates, is it regularly updated?

So far i don't find any bugs, except there's a glitch on the QS bar clock, that make it double whenever you swipe up/close the QS, it doesn't happen if you have a notification, but its never bother me bcs it hardly noticeable. And PEx also has a good battery backup, better than stock i think, the security update also updated regularly every month, and jasmine will get android 11 builds soon! I highly recommend you to flash this rom, it's so stable. (Sorry for my bad grammars).
Yes I noticed too

You mean only left audio channel in right headphone side?
Well guys.... GREAT NEWS!!!
There is ONE huge thing that got fixed with this update, 5ghz wifi!
Finally I get my 250+ Mbps over 5ghz, just like on Pie. Since android 10, I would get at most 150Mbps and the phone would lag a ton while doing the speedtest.net (app). Now it's fine.
Check yours to confirm :laugh:
NEVERMIND: this behavior only lasted for a couple of minutes... Back to 130ish Mbps and lagging lol ?
Is it just me or we're getting better battery life with September update? I usually was plugin the phone between 20-40% in the evening, feels like since the last update it's more 50-70%... but as always with battery life, hard to tell, could just be some of my usage, or some apps that got updated and more efficient...

Just you, I think! I haven't noticed any improvement.
Not sure if it's a new issue which got introduced by the latest update. But sometimes i have the problem that I cannot turn on bluetooth, it i click on the button it shows "turn on bluetooth.." but it doesn't.
Now i experienced it the other way around, i can't turn off bluetooth, it's not even possible to unpair my headphones.

i have the same problem with my mi a2 too... i didnt realize about the usb problem at first because i rarely use it for files transfer and the last time i plug it into my pc was before the september update.
i'm skeptical about custom rom base on my previous experience. can PE run banking and e-wallet app?
