With the recent Pokemon Masters, I am looking for a 64 bit rom. The game only runs on 64 bit unfortunately.
I searched the forums a bit and it looks like it was mostly mentioned in 2017 and early 2018. Not much of it is discussed in 2019. Is 64-bit rom a thing any more for the g5 plus? Or are all Android 8 and upwards 64 bit by default?

Pixel experience is easy to install and use. There are 3 variants of it, normal one, plus edition and CAF edition (discontinued). You don't need any additional file or anything else. As soon as you have your bootloader unlocked and twrp installed, you can flash this ROM and you're good to go. For easy unlocking of bootloader, I'd suggest Moto g5+ toolkit. You can check how to use it online.

1st of all you put your question in wrong place... and btw now all android custom roms are 64 bit...

We all know that the Moto G4 Play, has a 64bit processor, which currently runs the system in 32bit mode. Will the device have enough power to run Android Nougat (or Marshmallow) in 64bit? Would you gain more performance? I think it has enough RAM.
Well all Moto products have this issue. It can only be fixed by Moto devs(though i read that some xda devs were able to do so but thats not official and some bugs are still there.) Moto has becoming quite disappointing since they released the update for N in Jan of 2018, after 1 and half year of N, and that to only brazil and some other countries. Lol, i dont know what are they trying to achieve with this.

I think if the devs who developed the 64-bit version for g4 (Athene) try, they may be able to create a stable kernel and ROM, but there are few devs for harpia
When I first rooted my phone I downloaded amd64 Gapps but they didn't work I need to flash the amd or 32 bit gapps.
This made me think why the system is 32 bit while prosessor is 64 bit (SnapDragon 617)?
And if possible can someone make a 64 bit rom based on lineage or resurrection...

The data bus is actually 32 bit

64 bit OS is worthless on a phone with 4GB or less memory. It actually uses more RAM, because apps and SO are bigger.
And if apps are not prepared for for 64bit, it's useless too...
For moto g5 plus there is 64bit custom rom will our device get 64bit to get Google camera 5.0 working.

Actually, g5 runs snap 625 which is a 64 bit architect processor, where as 617(just functional is each for us).
So now you may have understood that its not the rom but the support from processor.
One should have easily rom it till now. But what the use of psp in rural area[emoji16]

Snapdragon 617 is also a 64bit processor but stock rom os is 32 bit same as g5 plus and htc a9 has same processor but has 64bit os .

True, i checked in snaps official page and 617 is a 64 bit processor, sry for posting w/o verification.
Pn developer about it, may they can reply more efficiently and tell us also what they says.[emoji6]
If you gays are not soooo lazy you have done some research on the active threads and found the the procesor is 64bit but the bus is only 32 so is not worty have a 64 bit os since the bus will need twice cicle to transport the data.
Htc a9 has 64bit os and it work fine

Here it is.

It is really nice that the developers are trying to make a x64 build for athene, but is los 15.1 the best option?
Because it is not stable by itself, and trying to make it stable AND 64 bit compatible at same time, isn't it too much effort? I understand that one way of thinking is "we can make it stable with 64 support already!", but maybe a port from 14.1, which is more stable, for 64 bit would show if it is worth or not (it will show what a 64 bits build can and cannot do, also performance), and in mean time, try to make 15.1 stable
I know that Dreamstar is doing almost all the job alone here (15.x and 64bits builds), so I'm thinking in try to make the 14.1 build port. I can code, but never did anything like that, not even close
Hi all,
I have a moto g5 plus which is not rooted but has an unlocked bootloader and twrp. If I get a security patch or Oreo update in the future do I have to do anything special to apply the update and if I download and reboot from the update screen what happens?
Thanks
You need to be on stock recovery for getting any type of update wether it is security update or major rom update.
If you download and update from update screen custom recovery (twrp) open and nothing happens or you get error in custom recovery (twrp).
Will the Oreo update be 64 bit instead of 32 bit which the stock rom comes with and does the moto z2 force come with a 32 bit rom because that's a weird decision especially since the snapdragon 835 is a very capable SOC.

Most likely not. It's unfortunate that Motorola doesn't make their OS 64 bit.

Do you think it's a way for them to save money

I doubt it. It's definitely easier to build a 32 bit OS but not much more work.
I don't think it is possible to update from 32 bits to 64 without erasing all data.
Don't forget that there are people using the device thst knows almost nothing about technology, so it could be a problem for data loss.
I am running an unofficial lineage OS 17.1 ROM on my Moto X Play. The kernel used for the ROM has been open sourced and is available online. Now the Moto X Play is 64 bit on a hardware level, but Motorola forced it into 32 bit mode by installing a 32 bit OS on it. I am wondering if I can convert this kernel I found [here](https://github.com/MOTO-M8916/kernel_motorola_msm8916) to 64 bit, while still maintaining it's functionality with this lineage OS build found [here.](https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-play/development/rom-lineageos-17-1-t4080411) The main reason I want to do this is because I have noticed that some apps are starting to faze out 32 bit support, and I think google is ending major 32 bit support in 2021-2022 from what I have heard. So I want to do this so I can still have the ability to use this phone in a few years, and to possibly allow other people to use this phone in a few years too. Is it possible to do this? If so, can someone explain to me how to do it or link me to a guide that explains how to do this? I already have some Linux experience as I run Linux as my main OS.
