Hi guys!
Is already have my OP5 since a month and using FreedomOS with Franco Kernel since the 2nd day I got it in my hand.
I am pretty happy in everything it brongs me both things, but I want to ask to people who has another custom ROM (xXx NoLimits, Resurrection Remix, ExperienceOS, etc) / Kernel on its device (I do not know a lot of kernels but I saw Franco and people (and his developer) told me some features and they hat reason is very smooth good and customizable with its own app.
So which Rom do you have? Magisk or SuperSu? Which Kernel is the best for you? :victory:
I want to get your personal opinion and your experience, I hope more people have the questions I did it and here we can help us each other with our opinion about using X rom X kernel and some more features that I can not put it here because I do not know if there are more things (my last Z5 I used mods and tweaks to make better performance but if you have a kernel like France you do not need this).
Thank you very much for your help :fingers-crossed:
I'm using xXx no limits and use the AKT (advanced kernel tweaks or so?) mod.
I don't know about the kernels but the ROM itself is my favorite.
It has an aroma installer (you pick which features you want before installing them) with many options.
You won't need to download gapps, magisk/ supersu and some stuff like xposed separately. It's very convenient.
Everything is smooth.
The stereo mod (using the earpiece as a speaker for music and videos) is something which is weird as it's used for something it wasn't meant to be used but still a very nice addition.
It's basically a faster stock OOS (oxygen OS) in a bundle with some root functionality added.
This shall be it for now. I hope that I could help you. Fell free to ask if you have any questions
I am using pure stock since I got this phone on the 4th of September and I have to say since then I stopped being a flasholic.
PureFusion because I've had the Nexus 6P and Pixel XL before this phone and ran PureNexus on those, and PureFusion is based on that. It's the only ROM that I feel provides just the right amount of features for me (not too much and not too less).
I'm using the stock kernel now because using custom kernels would introduce issues.
I did have the phone randomly reboot on Me 2 times so far but I can't say for sure that it's the ROM that is causing it.
Overall it's my favourite one out of the handful I have tried and I would definitely recommend it!!
Gonna go with stock as well. Stock kernel or Franco. Gotta say, better speed and battery than the other stuff out there. You gotta figure a whole company can do much better in software development than 1 guy or a team of 5 or 6 people.
Pure Fusion here too because its given me an extremely better battery life from the normal 3 hours SOT, i now get roughly 6 . Stock Kernel with the rom because it's just good for me all in all, maybe will try Franco sometime down the road because, i've been along time supporter. Magisk just because I don't need much except YouTube without ads, also can use Snapchat and other apps flawlessly! Good Luck!

I watched too Pure Fusion OS, but I need to know if I can install it jsut the Rom of do I need too one of the gapps that are they in the original post the gapps, bu I need to know how to install it?
Do I just make a clean install or i do a clean install and I install one of the gapps?
I must ask too, if I have unlocked the bootloeader, does that mean I have my mobile encrypted? Can I install Pure Fusion OS without problem?
What I normally do is wipe everything but internal memory, install room along with gapps I use open and it boots up! And you're all good to go !

It doesn't really matter. You can download open gapps or one for the others (forgot the names. Hehe).
You'll have to flash the ROM first and then the gapps file in the recovery. That's it.
But beware. Playing with your phones software doesn't come without risks. Read a lot about what you have to do and preferably try it on a phone to practice before doing it on your normal phone.
It can break your phone and I don't think that you can/ want to buy a new one. I had bricked my first phone a week after getting into root and custom ROMs.
The problems after that have driven me crazy but I was going to buy a new phone anyway.
LPT: If you want to flash something, wait for stable releases as long as you're inexperienced. Wait till others have tried that and then flash it. That way, you'll avoid some of the problems that you would struggle for a long time to fix.
And don't forget this. Keep an eye on the forums to see what problems people are reporting of and how to solve or avoid them in the first place.
Hope I could help

Arm 64/ 7.1 / And then you can choose which you like i don't need everything from Google so i'm sure what to select and as the previous post it has a stable and beta build PERSONALLY i'm using the beta and no problems at all! Any other questions feel free to ask!
This is an age old question..
You need to ask yourself not us.
What is your favourite car ? Mines a McLaren or a nismo, or a s2000 or robocops car.
You may disagree..
So what do you like, flash a bunch and see for yourself..
Bare in mind these threads usually get closed.
I'm using pure fusion and love it.

@The Marionette, given that you have not created the trend concerning the construction Slimlp I preferred to create here in general to report.
Obviously the building was made by our The Marionette and then go to him all the credits and acknowledgments. The building the find as always in the discharge of The Marionette folder and then he will see whether to create the trend I will only give my most positive impressions that much to get me to use it as a daily driver.:good:
Firstly finally have a AOSP and AOSP the best in my simple warning light slim indeed ..
I installed two days and I have no problem repeat no one think not even suffer the loss of the double touch at last, the battery is in line with the Mokee I used until now the rest is absolutely fantastic to try believe me. If you decide to do I tell how I acted the exact steps I do to have a perfect construction immediately.
The usual three vipe, I have also made cleaning the internal card but does not need to have it cleaned. Flasch rom, strictly gaps the slim mini, flasch Xposed vipe david cache and cache, restart as soon as possible and installed Busibox.
I forgot does not have the theme cm but RRO layer,Security Patch February 1, 2016 and this says a lot.
Well...
I am still hesitating on making a thread because the Slim build only boots on the kernel which supports only one half of variants.
Trying to use the boot.img for other half of variants,ARDE CM or ARDE CM OC result in a bootloop. I tried many things,without success.
No point in making a thread if half of the variants cant use the rom.
Also,I noticed that RRO themes dont apply,at least for me(maybe I couldnt apply the complex themes properly).

I guess it wasnt installed already,even though it shouldve been.
Meh,never the less,I cant use the rom because of random reboots xD
I tried it for giggles. 6045I
Stock kernel only one that boots. Very smooth and quick. Just reboots a lot on me. 30 minute drive to work and rebooted 4 times. Thanks for the ability to test it
Same here. 6045i reboot every 10 min.
Hi
I installed this rom 3 days ago on my 6045k, and have to say that tom is great. Installed rom, open gapps nano, did not change kernel and so far everything works great. Smooth, snappy, good battery life, no reboots, not a single problem
Well done :highfive:

Not really sure man. I think its up to you to test them out and see which one gives you the best battery performance for your needs.

Can you confirm that this is working? I've been wanting to use a black substratum theme for ages, but until now I didn't dare to, since substratum doesn't officially support LineageOS as far as I know. On top of that I read a couple of comments of people having issues

You're right, but I meant LineageOS as in an LOS-based ROM more than LOS itself. Most custom ROMs run better than LOS and have a bunch of features.
You may know that Substratum uses "OMS" to do the overlay stuff, so if you want a ROM with full substratum compatibility, it's as easy as finding one with the necessary commits, like NucleaROM or RR (I prefer NucleaROM over all of the other LOS-based ROMs to be honest). Just look at the description of the ROM for 'oms support'. Or you can try, I'm sure that I used Substratum on LineageOS stock for some time and I was getting 7 hrs SOT with heavy usage

Alright, so thats how it is. But you say you had it running on LOS? Did you experience issues, or why don't you have it running anymore? To be honest I would currently prefer not flashing a new rom, since I'm kinda dependent on my phone working right now and at the moment, it works mostly fine would still love to use a totally black substratum theme though

You have LOS on your phone though, right? If so, why don't you try? It's not like you have to flash anything so you can't brick your phone...
I think I used it on LOS yeah. But I prefer stock over custom ROMs by far. And now that the MiFavor 5 ROM is out (with the Android 7 QS tiles) I don't have any reason to use the buggy and laggy custom ROMs
I swear LOS was the worst of them all when I used it back in Feb/March. The worst thing was that a bunch of apps simply didn't feel like working...

Yes I do. Personally I don't feel like it's that bad so you think it's save to try it out?
Hmm so you feel like stock is better right now? I switched to LOS because I was kinda mad at the stock rom (at least the German one) since updates weren't coming at promised times and when they did come they were full of bugs like apps not working and more.... Which was mostly fixed afterwards, but I wasn't that happy with the situation. I also didn't like the look and feel, which now wouldn't be as much of a problem, since I'm using Nova + KLWP to change most of the visuals. Is the "Tiles-App" with more QS tiles working with stock now? It didn't when I went to LOS. How's battery life? What are your main reason to go back to stock?
And least but not last.... How would I get back to stock? Just flashing a zip from the ZTE website?
And another weird thing which didn't bother me too much until now: I bought my phone in Germany so I had the G model. Ever since going to LineageOS, which included unlocking the boot loader etc. My phone tells me /shows up as the U model.... Is that bad in any way? Other than that it seems to work alright though

-I like stock because it runs better, and even though I thought I would hate ZTE's UI, I actually like it after using it for a long time. And the 5.0 UI is awesome, nuff said. They use blur on the volume pop-up and when you pull down the status bar.
MiFavor 5.0 is not official, it's just the A2017 ROM that's been ported by the Russians. You need to install a special A2017 bootstack (it seemed really dangerous but it's not that bad really) and then the system zip, which formats /system anyways. After that you have to format /data (which will format the internal storage too, just saying) because of the encryption, and it should boot just fine.
I have an A2017G too and flipped out when they f00ked up with B02 with Google Play Store, then B03 with exfat, and went to LOS. Then i tried to go back and DFU-bricked my phone. After I fixed it I preferred to stay stock, and in B04 they fixed everything there was to fix. Tried NucleaROM, best so far but it still has that WIP feel...
Anyways, make a backup of your current system on an SD card if you want to go 5.0.
The A2017U thing is normal, it's because the universal bootloader is actually the U bootloader without the NON-HLOS.bin which you flash later via the A2017G-MODEM.zip (which is ancient lol)
Thank you again for your aid! I have another question....
I downloaded substratum now and installed some themes but somehow I can't get them to work...
For example "Flux" tells me everything went good and I need to restart, but nothing changes after the reboot...
Swift Black has some errors compiling :/
Any ideas?

The best would be wiping everything, but you can try wiping system only. after that if the phone doesn't work well just wipe data
It seems to be that all the ROMs have bugs or are laggy. Stock is best right now if my research is correct.
Stock...
Edit* with a few things added and removed...
So I am running Nuclear Ron now, everything went smoothly and I've got Magisk installed correctly for root access. So far when I'm using the rom I love everything and substratum works well as well.....
But.... Whenever I turn of the screen it almost immediately reboots... when using my phone I don't get any random reboots, but when the screen is off it restarts every time. This is a real bummer and I keep my phone off most of the time right now, to prevent the reboots every minute :/
Any ideas what the reason for this issue could be? Would love to stay with this rom, but only if I can get this fixed!
I Uninstalled substratum and the substratum themes by the way, but that didn't help either...
Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!!
I get phenomenal battery life and speed on NucleaROM. Stability is so-so, however.

+1 for Pure Fusion, I get up to 10 and a half hours screen on time with better performance than I get on OOS, noticeable by eye.
Ultimately, you may find a better combination out there, but the baseline for me is Fusion, it just works as it should, stamina and power.

Super smooth, absolutely as fast as Oxygen OS. I always use "GApps" and here U should choose "ARM64" and "7.1". I recommend you to use either "Nano" or "Pico", but you could choose whatever you want!
1. Flash the ROM in TWRP
2. Flash GApps
3. Flash Magisk/Super SU (If U want to be rooted)
4. Flash "no_verity_op5.zip" (If your phone are dectrypted, otherwise skip this one)

Yea mate it's always the latest version of the Rom, I always clean flash too.
I've tried all the Rom's on XDA for the Oneplus, No limits for me is the best OOS Rom (personal choice) but overall and for the things I need from it, plus Displaylink technology works indefinitely on it, on OOS Rom's it cuts out after around 9 minutes which is a deal breaker for me.
10 hours SOT is superb.

Basicly:
Encrypted = Makes it more difficult for people who are not authorized to access information stored on the phone. You are thus safer when the phone are encrypted.
Decrypted = Opposite to Encrypted. The benefit with this one compared to Encrypted is a better performance.
You can check what U use by going to the settings menu, then head over to "Security & fingerprint", scroll down to the bottom and done.
PS: I am Decrypted!

This. Also, not trying to be rude and it's awesome that everyone is so willing to help, but I don't think spoonfeeding is the best option. OP has tons of questions (many that are simple and can easily be answered with self-research).
As the user I quoted mentioned, you should visit other threads that have instructions and information on flashing, encrypt vs. decrypt and so on!

Man, i have much phones all of them always have custom rom and kernel, so i never brick the device... All rom, kernel have in own thread installation process and i going with it, newbie for sure will brick the device, if i flashed much devices without a break them, then really you still think im newbie ? Cmon in my thread in #1 post, i dont write " its my first time with flashing the device, am noob or something like that " Newbies having 100% understandable tutorial about unlocking BL, install TWRP or Root the device, but they still ask for help, did you see anywhere in OP5 section about i needed help with that ? First of all, im not stupid and know any flash is risk, but if device bricked then this is not the fault of the author of the topic, only it is the fault of the user who carried out the installation wrongly.

Man, i have much phones all of them always have custom rom and kernel, so i never brick the device... All rom, kernel have in own thread installation process and i going with it, newbie for sure will brick the device, if i flashed much devices without a break them, then really you still think im newbie ? Cmon in my thread in #1 post, i dont write " its my first time with flashing the device, am noob or something like that " Newbies having 100% understandable tutorial about unlocking BL, install TWRP or Root the device, but they still ask for help, did you see anywhere in OP5 section about i needed help with that ? First of all, im not stupid and know any flash is risk, but if device bricked then this is not the fault of the author of the topic, only it is the fault of the user who carried out the installation wrongly. This post is for you and means you have to post something like this in threads people who really are green and dont know anything about flashing.

i am NOT calling you stupid. i AM definitely calling you a newbie.
the questions you have been asking are very rudimentary when it comes to flashing ROMs. regardless of your previous experience, it is still best that you do a lot more reading. this obviously isn't what you want to hear, but it is as true as truth can be. if you don't know what encryption is, then you shouldn't be trying to work around it. you should be figuring out what encryption is in the first place.
Since buying this Sprint Note 4 I have tried 4 different custom ROM. 1 touch-wiz, and 3 AOSP. My opinion Detux Corp Rom v9.0-Zelfania'sLove is the absolute best in terms of looks, stability, customizing and response. This along with BeastMode-r61-UN7 kernel makes it a perfect combination for a phone that is now 6 yrs old.. . I did have a few issue, during the first few installs, as I have not dealt with a Touch-whiz ROM in a few yrs. Every thing about this Rom is superb. With plenty of customizing, and tweaking, you really do not need to add anything else to make this Rom stand out over the others.. One issue I did have was with viper4Android. With the option to install in Aroma, after installing it would not work like it was suppose to. It would never process or change any aspect of audio that I choose.. Once I Re did the Rom again, after trying a few AOSP, I downloaded the Viper4Android APK separate, along with the preinstalled busybox, it works flawless. Also it was very lagging, and would often be impossible to get it to to anything until it finally settled, but was worth the wait.. Right now nothing of note, is wrong not even Bluetooth, which seems to be a big issue on AOSP ROMS. Even with help on how to correct Bluetooth issue, it would still persist and never work correctly..
Just purchased two ZeroLemon batteries for my Note 4. The original works just fine, but wanted to have extra, for when this thing actually dies.. Of course I will swap out batteries at least once a month, and always have one fully charged and ready to replace, when I'm either at work or out and about.. I did purchase a new original Samsung battery, that was still in it's original box off of Ebay. But when it came, and I charged it and installed it in the phone. The phone would immediately shut off or just reboot.. Battery Man date was Mid 2017, but is defective. So went looking at alternatives, and settled on ZeroLemon as they have a good reputation.. Plus both with free shipping was $30 from their site.. Most aftermarket batteries, you can seem to only buy via Amazon or Ebay.. This is the route I did not want to go, so I'm glade I went to ZeroLemon..

I agree, Dtux rom is the best of the best on Sprint Note 4 MM.

I didn't expect this to work with 6.0 mm but OMG! Nugut on MM, no way !!! but it did, WoW.
Merry Christmas and happy holidays Doubledragon5

Check this out
5DQ15 bootloader and Modem running on a Lollipop custom rom, system root and Samsung theming full functioning as it should.
Cons= camera is blurted but I'll see if I can port or modify the files. Perhaps flash the modified r61/r56 Marshmallow kernel. Experimentation and observation.
Check out SuperSu Pro V2.52
I kept having issues with BusyBox. I finally found where it was pre-installed but it took me a while, I will admit. The Busybox by Steritson or what ever, was showing it was installed to the /sbin/. However, I discovered it was in device/ data/local/ and there it was Busybox. The screen shot is from after I manually deleted it with my root file manager . Yea, I took a bit of a risk but it did fit well with me. It just didn't look right.
Next, I unistalled previous bbox applets from within the app. I rebooted and ran the app to see if all was bbox was removed. a. Tgen I denied it root , forced stoped cleared cache, data and unistalled. nd indeed. I now use l Busybox app to Jrummy. Looks good so far but will see. Anyway, system/xbin for syatem root and syatem/sbin or system/bin for syatemless root.

Hello my friend, Its good to hear from you. I'm running the Ultimate Note 5 hybrid rom (MOAR). Hears the link if you interested.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-sprint/development/rom-t3330135
Which kernel did you use? How is your battery life? I never did like battery life with the marshmallows ROMs
I gave it a shot, but wifi doesn't work... So back to UN7
Yea, I never almost never use Wifi but I couldn't get my hot spot to work. Blurred camera, no Wifi and no hot spot. My Bluetooth works. I have an old back from my previous Note 4, I was wondering if I should flash the modem partitions . Freaking fused 5, binary 4 bit the bog one. Dam!!
Im using the besst mode 2.2 ZL by @freeza. I think I try porting the r56 boot.img to the .zip of the R 2.2 ZL kernel zip. I appreciate any input or suggestions @doubledragon5

I can care less about hotspot. But if we can get Wi-Fi to work that would be fantastic
Hey guys,
i am looking on the forums a long time (but registered just a few days ago) as i have a good old P5100 here which i want to get as fast and minimal as possible. The new life the tablet shall get is to be used as a wallboard/dashboard-controller for my Home-Assistant Instance (Web based frontend). I want to use the "Wallboard" App or possibly "Ariea Pro" for this which are based on WebView i think.
What Custom ROM, and what customisations should i start with?
(A few years ago i already did the first steps - installed SlimKat and TWRP then, yesterday i just installed the newest TWRP and Slim6., but it feels a little slow still)
I am really looking forward to get the best tips here what to use for this and how to get the fastest possible Performance for what i want to achieve

Thank you! As a noob question - what software do i use to flash such a kernel - do i do this with TWRP too? i only ever flashed the ROM
And which is the fastest ROM you guys can recommend? And as i am not that deep into android - what would i do to root (should i? is this what Magisk is for? ) and which pre-installed services can be safely deactivated for my usecase?
I am sure this is all pretty basic and i have read a lot around here, but some things are not completely clear and i am very thankful for your help or hint where to exactly look at

if your apps dont require gms then you can skip installing gapps and use something like aurora for an appstore. And if you want youtube you can use vanced. the tablet is old so gapps slow it down
