Recommend Custom ROM - OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers

Just downloaded Resurrection Remix and have to say I'm liking it a bit better than stock oxegen OS there are so many features and settings to get everything just how you like it! Seems to aslo support OTA (Not sure if that's just for android or the ROM updates as well) if you know please let me know! But anyone looking for a ROM check it out it's easy to install runs stable and butter smooth!

this thread will get flooded with this recommendation so ill post it as first reply:
FreedomOS. Hands down the best rom out there. Nothing compares to stock. Lineage has so many issues even on "Stable" builds. the one that annoys me most is the random throttling of my mobile data speed. Never been on LineageOS for more than 3 days.

Installed freedom first and reflashed because it was so close to oxegen for me and I'm using a one plus on verizon so I can only use 3g anyway lol so data speeds are not an issue OS wise

I mean I am on wifi most of the time and twitter and email load the same on 3G as they do LTE so I'll take the super fast powerful phone that is 100% customizable over a phone that's limited just to have LTE. As far as paying for service I'm not paying anything I'm on a business​ plan and pay nothing. If I ever switch off of that I'll go with a gsm carrier to get full support.

It's not necessarily​ band supports it's getting it to use cdma and LTE at the same time switch to cdma for calls and sending sms and LTE for data

I havent. I dont really care to swap off freedomos for anything else. Its usually buggy junk. Phone works dont fix it. I too shopped around like you to find a rom with better battery life but to no avail. If these roms do save you battery then it's a couple extra minutes at best. Doesn't make it worth all the flaws. Freedomos is just stock but you dont have to install all the google crap.

i'm gonna sell my s2.

I know the roms like miui and cyanogen are landing now, but i can't live with this drug. It's impossible that i've payed 600 euro to have these defects:
1. Slow Charging
2. Modems hangup
3. Modems choising 2g even with full 3g reception
4. Modems changing 3g, h, h+,h,h,3g,h and stucks the loading of the page.
4. Lot of bloatware and even lot of mods to have a rom like AOSP
5. Touchwizard without a simple alphabetical order (incredible)
6. Samsung keyboard with settings key near the most stroked keys
I want a phone to call, and not a phone that stucks itself while i'm working... this make me nervous. I will return to windows phone 7 (know with lg optimus 7), but this time i will try an omnia 7 with 16gb.
IT'S very difficoltous to find it in Italy but i will never return to android, until it's became more stable for CALLING. Remember... a phone make calls.... not hangups!
I hate this phone.
lmao...no issues here...phone is spot on. get a iphone...thats nice n simple.

I have got all the iphone models until iphone 4. It's really a bad phone. I can't survive with a phone that has got a battery of only 6 hours.
I talk very much with the phone. VERY much!
go buy a 3310, do you lovely!
Never had an hangup in Italy, plus you can change launcher and keyboard, so maybe the problem it's you
Sell it and buy something worst, good luck

I haven't had problems with 1-4 as I charge at night and rarely have less than 40% at the end of the day and I usually use it on a wifi connection but when I have used it on mobile speeds they have been fast and stable. With 5, or what should be 5, I haven't removed any samsung apps but simply threw them in a Samsung folder as I use the odd one occasionally. If I did decide to remove them it's hardly a big deal with Titanium backup. With 6, I actually like the touchwiz app drawer, then again I like everything organised so the folders work wonders. Finally with 7, why not just try another keyboard? I use swiftkey as it suits me nicely but there are plenty of other options.
No phone will suit everyone perfectly but the genius of Android is that it gives plenty of options. Some will be happy some wont, but creating a thread and posting 'I hate this phone' as the 2nd reply is pointless. I came from a Nexus One (Loved it) but the S2 has really improved my Android experience, everything simply works and without delay. You may have came to the wrong place to put it down
WHat you need my Friend is a GOod All NOKIA
And get the ones with no touchscreen
As soon as Nokia comes with WP7 I am jumping ship as have a HD7 as well and I love WP7 as well
Not sure if OP is troll or serious.
If troll, go away.
If serious, get a Samsung E1080.

Nice.
We got ourselves an ID TEN T thread in progress... requesting OP to repeat wah-tah-jer-kai-am faster and faster.
All jokes aside, SGS2 still seems to be the best smartphone available.
Why do you even bother to post something like this?
if unhappy with phone, sell it, dont start a thread about how bad it is, that will upset people.
so no more smart comments here, just leave it and it will disapear among old threads.
have a nice day.
Baaah no need to moan like that. Its not that bad! Damn! Ive used 100times worse (desire HD). But you should sell it while its still got good value .

I love mine and deal with some of the issues you have stated. They are valid issues with the phone. I think some can be fixed. I own a samsung focus as my back up phone and love WP7 if thats what you want then go for it. Don't listen to people who think because they own something that it is flawless.
People come here to get information about pros, cons, etc. If everyone was ****ting roses and bunnies out of their ass all day it would be boring.

Unlocked with GSM + LTE!

Hi everyone, I use an unlocked Sprint Note 4 with Cricket/at&t. I understood that by unlocking that I would only ever achieve HSPA+ speeds because Sprint locks the LTE band's available. I accepted that, as it didn't bother me and I mainly use Wifi, but that didn't stop me from trying.
All my attempts never seemed to make a difference, until the other week, I finally realized that LTE must not be available at my home. Because while I was driving I noticed I had a LTE signal, which was a complete shock to me. So I did some testing and I only received HSPA at home with all my phones.
Conclusion:
So that means one of the steps I did must have activated LTE. I do have to force it to connect sometimes with phone info shortcut. Or at&t is broadcasting on one of sprints bands in that area.
If anyone is interested in this, I do believe I know the exact steps to replicate this. If this shows interest, I will turn this post into a guide. This would be my first guide, so bear with me.
Edit: After further testing, I'm concluding that I'm only getting Lte in certain area, so it must be that at&t is using one of the Sprint bands there. If something changes, I'll update!
Edit 12/11/16 - only getting lte at certain place. It's band 2. Added pic below.
Pics below show Lte. You can see from crickets website that 4g is only 4mbps and Lte is 8mbps.

I would be more than interested in knowing how you unlocked the LTE Bands because (you must be aware through my previous posts) I too use unlocked N910P with a GSM SIM but all I get is H+.
I did try to unlock the LTE bands using a thread on XDA but it did not work as the tool wasn't even able to recognize the phone.
Hence, a step-by-step guide would be appreciated regarding the same.

I'm not sure if I unlocked them or not.
This just all became aware to me that i have lte. So I'm still testing. It seems like I'm only getting lte in one certain area. I don't know if maybe at&t is using a sprint band in that area. And that's what is making it possible.
I also don't know if anyone one thing i did made this possible. I will edit my post with all my changes. And you can test to see if it changes anything for you. Give me a bit.

I'm also on a domestic unlocked 910p with cricket, and have noticed LTE popping up from time to time. It's not consistent though. I just assumed it was because I hadn't changed my network mode to GSM/UTMS. I was driving at the time so I couldn't check to see if it was actually working.

I've been testing cm 14. So I just now went back to custom stock. When I go back to work today in gonna do more testing. But after seeing your experience and my assumption, I'm thinking that I don't have any more lte bands. But just that att is using one of the bands this phone has.
I'll keep you all posted.
Im also interested, I'm using AT&T towers as well through straight talk... but ive only ever been able to get 3g. But more so than not lately, unfortunately, ive been getting stuck with GSM service, not even 3g.. So if you figure something out that'd b great , otherwise any tips to improve my speed capabilities would b much appreciated. . And just 2-3 miles away is an AT&T tower so i should be capable of much more.

I'm concluding I'm only getting Lte in certain area. So at&t must be using Sprint band there, or something like that. But no other bands are unlocked.

Really, I don't know how I get it in area I get it. But it's funny you commented. Because I was just getting on here to update.
I'm at my sister's where I get Lte. So I installed an app to find more info.
Here's the pic. I'm on band 2 here in western pa. Don't know how yet. Don't travel to much to compare. But this is only place I get Lte. So I'm still trying to figure out what and how I did.
Any how here's the pics
The pic shows 910t because that's the build id i use in my build.prop.

Which custom stock Rom is stable and capable of daily driving for the Sprint Note 4?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I'm just gonna list some of the newer ones that are still being developed. But there are also more stable builds out there but they're no longer being improved upon. = final build. (Ex. Any of @tx_dbs_tx older roms are very stable= MOAR rom, Note 5 rom, Mr Wonderful)
Back to current ones,
If you want a very customizable rom then Dtux Rom here is great. I use it myself when I'm not testing another. Plus Dev is getting ready to put out v7 very soon.
Then there's new CM14 here. Still getting all the bugs out but is very stable enough for daily driver. If you want Nouget then it's only option right now. Or if you want a minimal aosp rom, then it's the way to go.
Then a lot of people like trying the Note 7 ports, specifically one of these here. But it requires some work to get service working. Personally I'd wait til @tx_dbs_tx releases his Note 7 port. Won't be long, i hope. But it'll be tailored for our device.
There you go, that's my personal opinion through experience. It just depends on what you looking for. But all of them are stable. Good luck!
Edit. I just re-read your question. If your looking for a stockish rom. I'd suggest Mr Wonderful here! http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-sprint/development/rom-t3396498
Read next post!
Or you can try Dtux but just don't install the modset, if you don't want all the custom stuff.

Sprint Note 7 port is very close to a public beta release! Keep looking in the Sprint N4 development forum ETA should be before Xmas. Expect only minor bugs such as fingerprint scanner and always on display. otherwise completely functioning and pure Sprint N7 rom. I will move on to the next available Samsung Nougat rom if I have the time and patience and if I haven't upgraded my phone by then. Otherwise this N7 port will be my last rom for the Sprint N4. I like to go out with a big BANG!

List of ROMs that support WiFi Calling?

Yeah it's unfortunate but no devs have found interest in beefing up stock ROMs for the Axon 7. They're all AOSP based and ported which I've learned a long time ago will never support WiFi Calling. I've had to run plain stock rooted since owning the phone and never had the chance to try out all the good stuff that's available now.
But yeah as of now I think the outdated BadBoyz ROM is the closest anybody will get to a custom stock ROM and have WiFi Calling.

Same! The Axon 7 has an awesome Dev community which I'm thankful for seeing, but the lack of stock ROMs leaves us WiFi Calling fanatics out of luck. If I knew anything about dev'ing ROMs I'd jump right into that shizz haha.
@raystef66 could you look into porting some of those old ROMs' modifications? I have no idea how easy or hard that would be, but maybe with the APKs it would be enough

I was just going through our rom, Im not sure but i think a lot of it is that your carrier needs to support WFC. I know TMO does and AT&T. What base are you using US Model or for the G ?

It depends on the carrier but also if its implemented onto the rom. U models have it and works on TMO. Perhaps AT&T too. But as other carriers provide it too and having a G version i just wondered. But you wrote to me it could only be an extra apk for wfc ? If so ill dig up your rom and look for it. Perhaps ill find a way.
Digging up an old thread so I don't post a duplicate.
Does anyone know if ROM creators have been able to get Wifi Calling working yet? My phone is driving me nuts with random slowdown and hanging. I know I can just wipe it and start fresh, but if I'm going to wipe the phone I want to move up to Oreo.

Unfortunately most, if not all custom ROM's for the Axon 7 are still AOSP based and don't include WiFi Calling. The most recent Lineage 15.1 has the option for it under settings, but nobody, not even the dev, have answered if it truly works or not yet. It's like anything regarding WiFi Calling gets ignored.
Your best bet is to download NFound's release of the Oreo B12 Beta which is perfectly stable and will offer everything stock has like Dolby, and more importantly WiFi Calling.

Anyone out there using jio4g voice? Actually, im using it. But it was only stable in MiUi and ZUi. By stable i mean, i can talk for hours and the phone wont heat up much. But in other ROMS, like Ressurection remix, LOS, and every other rom, the phone would start heating like hell. Any solutions out there would be highly appreciated.
Thank you.

Lol... But then I'd have to recharge daily. If you're from India, then you might know the importance of Jio. But still thanks for the suggestion. I think I have already figured out the problem. I think the problem lies in the kernel itself. But on the other hand I think that ZUK Z1 is not able to get a clear signal in 4G, thats why the phone heats way too much. [XtreemSpeedsKernel], [Malabar Kernel], they are not able to receive much signal as in [Linux Kernel]. So that's why ZUi and MiUi are stable and any other rom using [Linux Kernel].
Well that's my theory. If I'm wrong, then everyone is welcomed to correct me.
Thank You. More knowledge is always welcomed. :laugh::laugh:

Free calls? Like there's no limit like Jio? I heard that you can only talk for an hour or so in Vodafone and Airtel.... (Just wanna make sure)..

Is the network issue solved?

I am planning to buy this phone by next week but saw a lot of users complaining about its 4g or some other network issue. Is it really bad? As its an Android One series, I am sure they will release some or other patch to fix this. Is the problem solved yet?
I am aware of the amazing specs of this phone but what are the flaws which needs to be looked upon before purchasing? Experienced reviews would be appreciated!
Thanks!

Good to hear that buddy! Thanks for replying. Updates can surely fix issues. Planning to buy this soon! Hows the battery life? Is 3080 mah enough for a normal user? Does it lasts for a day? I am mostly a wifi guy!

The network issues have been solved & the battery backup has also improved..attaching my SOT & Battery backup
Not for me...in UK, on Three
I've had the October update (1Gb+) but my 'global version' Mi A1 unit still won't connect to 4G LTE bands 3 & 20 on Three in the UK, which are listed in the specs as supported.
I've tried other providers and both SIM slots - it never connects to LTE. My Moto G5S Plus does, first time, every time.
My Xioami Mi A1 is going back to China...

Good to know buddy! I just bought this phone yesterday. It will be delivered tomorrow. Damn excited!
I read a lot of other reviews from other users who said that the October update solved the network issues. Thank god! I think this is one of the best features of having an Android One device. We will be getting updates every now and then so all the bugs will be fixed anyway. Thanks for replying. :good:
Just recieved my A1 and I am in love!!
Downloaded the latest october update and my network is super stable and full now. The performance of this phone is tremendous. :good:

Its been quite amazing bro! All the bugs have been fixed with regular monthly updates and I didnt experienced any lag yet. The battery performance surely depends on your usage. It was a bit weird after the october update but became better after the november update. The best feature is obviously the camera. The pics come out totally stunning. Especially the portrait ones. This phone is the best under 20k budget. And I heard its gonna be available for just 13k in an upcoming Flipkart sale. Being an Android one device, they should have released Oreo way before others but there has been a little delay. It has disappointed some users but as promised, it will be released by the end of this month. So eagerly waiting for it now! I am damn sure the phone will get a lot better after Oreo!

Most welcome buddy! Go ahead and enjoy your A1 experience.
I bought the phone over the eBay, as new but opened box. I never had any problem with it, just sometimes i don't get Network at all until and unless i restart my mobile, this has happened twice so far. Now I have a good signal, of course is not stable, it is fluctuating.
I do not think that is a hardware issue.
is network issue fixed? I am planning to buy this phone
After few weeks of normal daily use I haven't found any issues with network switching.
I travel a quite a lot and switching between 3G and 4G/LTE haven't failed as far as I can see.
