What is the best Nougat rom? - Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

What is the best rom that is similar to nougat?
My phone is rooted and the bootloader is unlocked.
Should I use Lineage or CM14.1?

I would use linage.

Resurrection Remix 7.1.12r25 is my favorite. It has the most options built in of all the Nougat roms for the G900V and other phones.

Has anyone reading this had trouble with Nougat ROMS causing a lockup after the initial setup? I can install and use Resurrection Remix, Lineage and CR Droid at my home. Once I start moving (i.e. when I go to a store or go to work) the phone will lock up showing a rectangular box on the lock screen. Yesterday when I arrived at work I touched the power button and I expected to unlock the phone. I saw the normal unlock screen for a split second and then saw the dreaded rectangular box with the time as the only graphic. To restart one has to pull the battery. Yesterday I did a nandroid restore and was back on Marshmallow.
I am wondering if this might be due to my phone being shut down by Verizon once I attain a strong consistent cell signal. Or maybe the network settings for using the Verizon network are wrong.
I also think it could be due to GAPPS but only because I have seen other posts concerning some GAPPS causing lockups. What I haven't read is anyone getting the phone all set up and running smoothly at home only to have it go wonky once it moves away from the original cell.
(I really like the Nougat custom ROMS more than the stock rooted Marshmallow ROM but I can't use them without the lockups!)
Thanks for reading this. (SM-G900V with unlocked bootloader)

Please after installing the nougat custom rom does the remote and 4G work?

Yes, 4g works for me on "Global". I use the Peel remote and control every TV/Stereo/Sound bar in my house with it.

I'm having the very same problem. I've looking elsewhere but without success.
I don't want to go back to MM yet, but this is really annoying. Any insights on this?

Wow. Now I feel ashamed. But being honest I looked deeply but seems that I didn't search with the correct words. Thank you.
So, LOS is still the best Nougat ROM?

I would like to know this as well. I liked Resurrection Remix but switched to Lineage because battery life was so poor for me on Resurrection Remix.

ROM noob here, first post - Have several questions about Omni ROMs

Hello all.
I recently unlocked and rooted my Verizon Galaxy Nexus (the first time I've done this) and flashed this ROM to it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2532320
The ROM seemed quite glitchy, the quick toggles were not working correctly and eventually one day when I tried to turn on my phone, it got stuck in a boot loop. I then flashed back to stock using the Nexus Root Toolkit. I still wanted a custom ROM, so I then flashed this ROM to my phone: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2427087
This ROM is almost completely working, but I have some issues with it. For example, some of the quick toggles do not work correctly. My data toggle does not change when I short press it, the bars just stay orange (screenshot here: http://i.imgur.com/vpOgpBe.png) Could someone tell me what this means? Is it supposed to be like this? I would assume that short pressing the data toggle is supposed to turn mobile data on or off, correct? The quick toggle settings are a standard feature across all Omni ROMs, right?
I also cannot get an internet connection over data now either. My MMS messages have also not been working since I installed the Fork My Life ROM.
Some other minor issues I have with the ROM is that when I short press the location toggle, it will sometimes close the quick settings window.
Should I post about these problems in the ROM's thread? Are any of the above normal happenstances in an Omni ROM? This is my first post on XDA so please cut me some slack.

Maybe someone can answer your other general Omni questions, but yes, if there's bugs in an unofficial modified OmniROM, those should probably go in that ROM's thread. Is the bug caused by Omni or the modifications? Since it's not stock Omni, we err on the side of caution and go with it's the modifications.

4 cores working with the screen on... battery life....
stuck at logo after kernel flash
I am on the liquid milestone 3.2. I saw that this is the same kernel but updated version that came in the rom so i wanted to update. No matter
Now i am stuck in a boot loop. phone powers on, stays at the LG logo, goes no further. I can get to Download mode, but no recovery.
Is there a way to recover this thing with out having put a locked stock rom on it??
DT2W double tap to wake
I love the Kernal so far however i've got a question about the double tap to wake features. Is there a way to have the screen turn off by double tapping somewhere OTHER than the notification bar at the top of the screen? Also it takes me about 4 or 5 double taps to get the screen to actually wake up, any ideas on any of this ? Thanks!
Hear myself in the phone... rom or kernal problem?
hello love the work you guys do its exciting and interesting. Ive relatively recently started playing with custom roms and kernals etc. love this one because i get excellent battery life as well as a solid LTE signal (two things ive had trouble finding with lollipop so far.. might just be me). Anyway ive got an issue with hearing myself in my phone when im on the phone... its like everything i say approx half a second after i say it.. needless to say its rather annoying, is this a rom or kernal problem? volume settings issue? not sure.. Also my proximity sensor occasionally wont register that my ear is near it.. baaically the screen stays on if im say checking my voice mail or on the phone.. not sure why this happends.. Everything else works great.. some info: d801 lg g2, lastest rr build for lp and i have the lasest blackbird for lollipop. its a really solid combo and im loving it.. thanks for any information you may have

These are ROM related errors...the call echo especially... Depending on ROM I could help....also see if it still persists in my latest update
Love this kernal, and I flash when installing a new LP build, but I've been having problems lately. After initial setup or reboot I get the" NO UCI SUPPORT " message. I'm running LiquidSmooth's latest build for the LS980, is anyone else having this issue.

No. This kernel is for AOSP-based ROMs. G3 ROMs are stock-based.
Typos courtesy of my Ice Cold LG G2 (D803).
just flashed your kernel, got stuck in a boot loop.
VS980, liquidsmooth 3.2 milestone.
what can i do? was excited to try out your update
Great kernel, running super smooth on AICP.
Thanks!
He's working on the fix for cm 12.1.
I sent my files on hangouts, just wait
edit: figured it out
does anyone have a dt2w fix for vs980? i just flashed liquidsmooth 4.0 and everything was working fine, flashed the kernel and it broke my knock on support. i found the zip posted in the main kernel thread (this one) and twrp tells me the file is corrupted

I think they're KitKat based. I tried already and it caused my d800 to go in a boot loop.
I wonder if anyone has got, perhaps, the 5.1 d800 version? I'm getting kinda desperate since my fav rom switched to a kernel that makes my phone really really hot.
Really need a link to latest 5.1 B14ckB1rd kernel for D800 :/

Xiaomi Redmi 2 2014811 Best Rom?

I am currently on MIUI 7, the one just before it updates to MIUI 8. What I want to know is, what is the best possible custom rom I can flash to that will work with this device? I have Team Win Recovery 3.0.0.0 installed.
I have installed Redmi 2 2014811 for my casual user (no root or else) with this base rom : miui_HM2XWCProGlobal_V8.0.7.0.LHJMIDG_3240991baf_5.1.zip via CWM

Cool thanks, I will look up the rom. I thought about Android 6 or 7, but see those still have some major issues here and there.

Major issues?which ROM r u talking about?there are so many ROMs those are pretty stable.Only minor bugs(miui also have this)
BTW devs work very hard for these ROMs and they got nothing but our thanks and encouragement. These custom ROMs are way better in performance and customization than sluggish and heavy MIUI rom.
My phone is 8months old and this phone is still with me because of efforts of devs.
So don't be so demanding about 200% no bug and be thankful to them.

Don't get me wrong, I am very grateful. I worked on Windows Mobile roms back in the day so know what type of work goes into it. I have only started to look at custom roms today and am so completely lost, guess I chose the wrong word being major. When i said major I had camera and Gps in mind, as I saw some of those roms had issues with those. So again, no disrespect meant from my side and I apologize if It came out that way. I was just kind of hoping someone could bump me in the right direction. The last time this phone was flashed the previous owner flashed it in such a way that the sim card could not be detected, after fixing that I flashed a MIUI rom, but that was sort of the Chinese version and stuff like google services did not work properly and push notifications would not work unless you turn the phone on and go into the app. So yeah if you can point me in the right direction I will appreciate it a lot.

Video recording was a issue for Nougat based ROM but it has been fixed.And about gps, it is working fine (i like to use waze)with Marshmallow based ROM.I don't know about nougat as I didn't fully moved to nougat.I have downloaded Tesla (N) and sodamod(cm 14) today .So I will report you soon about GPS in Nougat.
Till now I have tried cm(M),RR(M),DU(M),Tesla(M),orion(M),zephyre(M),AICP(M),AOKP(M).Most of them has kept my expectation.Now I am on project-x(M).It is also suberb with almost no problem.
If you want to stick with miui based then there is also"thunder-miui" by @gkalen.
Try these ROMs and see which is suitable for you.I like to stick with cm based for C.M.T.E.
Edit:-GPS works fine in nougat.
Lollipop (5.x) - CM 12.1
Marshmallow (6.x) - MoKee
Nougat (7.x) - I only tested Suda not good for daily driver

Is Mirror link working in any custom ROM?

Hi, anyone knows if there is any rom with Mirror link working?
Mirror link is not screen Mirror to the TV. It is the connection to the car MP5 with the USB and you can manage your phone with the car touch screen.
If It doesn't work now but anyone knows if nearly It will be implemented in any rom please say me in which one.
Thanks and regards.
I'm looking into this as well, I've been wanting to install a custom rom such as @Ivan_Meler LOS Rom, but it has pushed my phone to a "Phone is not compatible" reading on the headunit.
Little back story:
I have a Samsung Gal. S7 and a Honda Civic 2015 and I've been able to do Mirrorlink when it was working on a completely stock rom. Only problem was I was trying to mirrorlink the full phone screen and not have to use the Samsung Car mode, Rockscout, etc. I've tried every trick in the book even one which required the phone to be rooted. (AAUnlock and AAMirror) I used SuperSU, whick I should now look into trying Magisk, and see if that makes any difference.
What I've noticed is that once the phone is rooted, even on a stock rom, the Head Unit in my car switches to "Phone is not compatible". Again, I rooted it with SuperSU. I've been able to locate a S7 Stock Rom which I'll go back to and see if I can get that working again. Once that's established, I'll try with Magisk, and see if there's any difference.
So far with every rom I've tried including LOS (most Roms are based from LOS), the phone hasnt worked in mirrorlink. I'm hoping that @Ivan_Meler makes an update that allows it, as it seems his is the only ROM that gets updated on a frequent basis. I'm hoping that this (along with other issues) gets resolved on the Rom and this can become my daily driver.
Hello
Did you manage to make work your S7 mirrorlink with a rooted rom ?
Thanks

If you want to use these old roms, make sure you change the thermals. I highly recommend Jabashque 6, the links are on my thermals thread.
As good as that version of Omni is, Darkobas himself said that longterm use will kill dramatically hurt longterm battery life.
You could use the compatible Blackscreen with the Jabashque thermals and your experience will be perfect.
BY the way, Oreo and Pie Roms are awesome. If you try Pie tryout Lineage 16 its awesome!
Thanks
i want at least oreo, i tried Omni but Mirrorscreen does not work

Data not working on Newer Roms

I have been having issues with newer build of Resurrection Remix, AOSPExtended , and Pixel Experience. On older builds from July i don't have any issues. The issue i have is when i disable data and leave it disconnected for about 30 minutes or more and toggle the data on again, it doesn't work and i'm just left with my signal bars on my status bar. No i haven't tried going to stock and messing up my IMEI and yes i have a backup of it. This all started when i updated my phone to a later July build of Resurrection Remix. Newer roms such as Dot OS and Arrow Rom don't have this issue but i don't like the UI.
I have this same issue, every oreo rom I have tried has the same issue. I find that I'll get data back by rebooting, but this gets annoying having to do that several times a day when I want to use Twitter or some other app and I'm at school where there is no wifi.
I tried going back to stock, but most apps either crash or won't download at all. Google is among those.
