I recently updated to android Nougat by unrooting and then updating to android 7. After updating I restored from my backup made previously of the data partition. Since updating and restoring I cannot play videos in any form, Youtube, ads in a game or local files. Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks in advance.
Try reflashing android 7 without restoring data and install a video player to see what happen

I have successfully built oreo from aosp. But I'm having a few issues. First is gapps. I have only been able to find 1 gapps package for 8.0. It will flash with no errors, but nothing seems to get installed, once I boot it up. It seems that I am also getting the vendor mismatch dialog on boot. Has anyone found a solution to either of these? I pulled the vendor from the latest 8.0 image. I'll upload what I have if anyone is interested in flashing it.
Maybe this guy can help you:

Hi, potter community,
I've been quite happy with my Moto G 2014 (LTE), however, the battery is slowly dying and 1GB of RAM and the old CPU is no longer a real pleasure. Furthermore, the maintainer has announced that he will no longer support the device and we'll thus most likely never see laos 15.1 (currently 14.1 is officially supported).
I've seen that @vache is building unofficial 14.1 and 15.1 laos (are there efforts to make them official?) and official TWRP support is present as well. Thus:
Is it worth switching to potter - it's currently ~ 240€ on Amazon Germany.
Follow up questions: is magisk working (To my knowledge potter is encrypted, right? Anything to be aware of with that and flashing magisk?)?
Is the xposed framework working on top (I'd stick with 14.1 untill there's an official release for 15)?
Thanks ahead!
If you want official support from the manufacturer, switch to Nokia.

I'm not sure how that relates to my question.
I was asking for official lineageos support which by no mean is a requirement for my decision.

Hi gothicVI - I see you have hundreds of Thanks from helping others on XDA, so please excuse jackass comments by those who don't. It also appears that you did examine the G5 Plus forums before asking your questions.
Yes, Magisk works very well (but not so much SuperSU which I don't use anymore) for both root and addons like Xposed/V4A/etc, the only issue being that on some ROMs a fix/patch is needed in order to pass SafetyNet. By now most ROMs don't need that anymore although the latest LOS 15.1 still does.
Another main issue has been with users going from stock Nougat to 8.1 custom ROMs and then deciding to go back to stock losing their IMEI settings and voLTE capability. You'll see threads about resolving that (backing up/restoring EFS partition, etc) but I think many still lost voLTE even after restoring their IMEI. Not using voLTE myself and not wanting to go back to stock Nougat, I suggest that you do more research on that if you think it could affect you. The hope was/is that this problem would be fixed by the promised official Oreo upgrade for G5 Plus, but now it's unclear if Lenovorola will ever release it.
In general though it's hard to beat the performance & value of G5 Plus which is still considered one of the very best mid-range devices even with the G6's soon coming out. I've been very satisfied with it and came from the supposedly better Moto X Pure/Style but I like the G5 Plus more with its excellent battery life and still very good performance for my needs. Definitely get the 64 GB model with 4 GB RAM though if possible.
There is still good Development support with many AOSP and LOS based ROMs which are mostly all 8.1 now, so if you're planning to root and use the latest custom ROMs with updated security patches & newest features, you should be happy with it, just be careful about reverting to stock Nougat if you ever want/need to do that.
Thank you @Dahenjo for your in depth answer. I assume you're not using xposed since caring about safety net
W.r.t. magisk: are there any special prerequisites? I never dealt with a encrypted data partition.
Pretty sure I'm gonna order this weekend.
Thanks again!

I came from a Titan ( sister device of Thea,just dual SIM instead of LTE) to Potter and for me it was worth every cent. As you said my battery was slowly dying too and the device was kind of slow with every rom.
Now I have SOT from about 7 hours, no need to carry my powerbank around, battery lasts way more than a day. And with 3gb it's running like hell compared to my good old Titan, you can open apps from recents hours later. I bought it just after christmas for 192€ and I think the price will fall again now as the Moto G6 series is out.
It is the first device with an encrypted data partition for me too and the steps when rooting are a bit different but there is a very good guide in here and you can always PM me if you run into problems.
Basically you have to decrypt the partition once in TWRP after you have unlocked your BL. After that you flash magisk as usual and magisk also prevents the device from overwriting the recovery.
I can recommend this device, yes Oreo is delayed but there are monthly security patches.

No, I'm not using Xposed anymore simply because many ROMs now include the tweaks I needed it for. Also magisk provides add-on modules for features in a similar way that Xposed did, including for Xposed itself which I believe does pass safetynet on Orea if done correctly, but I haven't tried it myself.
I see @Wolfcity just answered regarding encrypted /data, although I would add to be careful using some of the guides here which give very outdated links and you don't need certain files/things anymore that they say to do. Just flash latest official TWRP 3.2.1-0 after unlocking then go to recovery and immediately do a Format Data (not wipe, it's where you have to type in y-e-s to proceed after warning that all user data will be gone), then boot back into recovery/TWRP and install a custom ROM and magisk, gapps too if you want and all should be good.
I had a dual SIM G 2014 and right now I couldn't be happier with my current G5 Plus. I haven't rooted this one yet, but I am planning to do so when the phone is left out of its two year warranty. I needed to replace my phone since I was unable to execute Android Auto, Spotify and Google Maps navigation with my G 2014 at the same time. I was worried if these apps would still be unable to be executed by G5 Plus. From my 1 year experience, one thing is for sure: the G5 Plus performs nearly like a flagship.

You´re right, there are some outdated guides, this one is usable: https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5-plus/how-to/how-to-root-moto-g5-plus-t3579659/post74673573#post74673573
Just use magisk 16 instead of 15.3.
If you don´t want to flash a custom rom (potter stock is not that bad) you have to take care of the F2FS loopback bug which prevents magisk from installing modules.
You can flash a custom kernel or, as I did use this F2FS Loopback Bug Module. It moves magisk from data to cache and it´s a flash and forget solution.
Nope, not unless you wanna lose volte and IMEI among other things. Get a plus device or something. However, if you wait for Oreo, things might be different. If you do get one stay clear of Oreo custom ROMs for now.
Hi Folks,
I ordered the LeTV Le S3 X522 for my daughter from banggood.
https://www.banggood.com/LeTV-LeEco...-p-1269560.html?rmmds=search&cur_warehouse=CN
I intend to install twrp & Magisk. I just want to be sure that I have the correct files documented to do what I need to do without bricking it. I have rooted + twrp my Le Max 2 via adb, so I'm well versed there.
For the X522, I found:
TWRP:
https://twrp.me/leeco/leecole2.html
This guide:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/le-2/how-to/guide-unlocking-rooting-restoring-to-t3515555
I also would like recommendations for compatible, stable ROMs. Particularly, I really like LineageOS or something similar. The last thing I would want to do is brick the phone. Any help would be appreciated.
this is correct TWRP.
I use magisk 16.4
I'm on TeamHorizon's XenonHD without any problem

First off this should be in the Question section.. and a quick search would have given you the answer...
so this will be short and simple..
1) put the lastest twrp, magisk installer and 10.3.6 on your phone (download folder is fine)
2) Boot into twrp, flash rom, don't reboot, flash twrp..
3) then reboot back into twrp/ recovery and flash magisk..
4) reboot system and all is done...
It seems to be the latest twrp isn't ok for my os. Is it an error ?
Sorry for haven't search.
If the response is in the search, don't answer, I'm ok with this.
Thank you.

See Funk Wizards guide here once you get it working again and backup your efs and store them on pc or something other than your device so you can restore them using fastboot if you ever have another no data issue.
Exactly what did you do step by step please. It's hard to help without detailed information .
Edit added:
To root flash latest magisk zip in twrp then reboot system.
I've done it a few times using 10.3.6 with no issues.
