AOSP rom anyone?

I'm planning on buying the 4gb 128gb version from aliexpress, but there's no vanilla android(Pure stock android) rom for this phone. The reason why I want stock Android is because I need Gravitybox as it's a must when I get a new phone. So will we see an AOSP rom anytime soon?

No. Buy a OnePlus 3T. Or an HTC 10. Or an Honor 8, they have a mostly fully working cm13 ROM.

I was thinking of buying one of those as well but they all have dealbreaking issues.
OnePlus 3T: Poor display for VR
HTC 10: Too small
Honor 8: No 4K recording
Guess I'm stuck with the Axon 7.

And software is a bigger deal breaker than all of those things you've mentioned. At the end of the day, you do whatever you want to do, but the Axon 7 isn't as good as any of those mentioned phones, solely on the software experience and dev community.

We have an almost working CM13 that many use as daily driver and, IMHO, CM does not need Gravitybox (I agree AOSP badly needs it).
But if I could go back, I would take a harder look at OP3T for exactly the software issue.

Gravity box works except for the quick settings tweaks.

Hola
Just to add my experience, I was one of those who really was interested in the Axon 7 since it was announced earlier this year (MWC 2016 in Feb??), so I purchased it the instant it was released. The hardware is undoubtedly top notch except:
1. The crappy capacitive buttons that are placed too close together.
2. Stupid vibration setup - Either on or off with no vibration intensity configuration.
3. Non-existent granular volume level controls - Yes you can increase or decrease the overall volume, but the increments are too far apart (this could be a software limitation though).
So I've used it for a month or so but because of the lack of a near complete AOSP or CM based ROM (mostly due to ZTE's slowness in providing source and a number of proprietary blobs), I really yearned for my ability to try different ROMs and flash different add-ons like I was accustomed to. So I end up buying the OnePlus 3T. Man it was nice to use and experience a phone that can garner so many devs. If only the 3T had dual front facing speakers, expandable storage, and that QHD res screen, then it would have been the best of the best in my opinion.
I am now back to using the Axon 7 using one of those slightly modified ZTE based ROMs with Xposed. I consume a lot of media on my phone. I still keep my 3T for testing out new dev ROMs like RR or CM.
Seems like OEMs can't make a phone that provides great hardware (e.g. A7) while providing access to firmware sources and letting dev community to thrive.

Sorry bruh, I'm not a developer, and I didn't like programming much. Someone should port a stock rom from Oneplus 3/3t to this phone instead. That would be great.

Oneplus 3T? Nope, no card slot. HTC 10, overpriced junk, and single sim. Honor 8, Hisilicon Kirin, nope. I prefer snapdragon because most apps on the play store, and some special features are made uniquely for snapdragon chips.
Not interested in cm13/14 because I can't use gravitybox on it.
So the Axon 7 is a great buy. The 4gb/128gb version if sold in most countries will actually sell like hot cakes.

No CM13 doesn't need gravitybox, but I find more features on gravitybox than on CM13. CM13 doesn't work really well with gravitybox as I'm using it on my current phone till Rovo builds xposed for Android 7.1, and I'm currently experiencing some automatic shutdowns on this rom. I own a Jiayu s3,(Has a mediatek chipset)and I'm looking to upgrade to the Axon 7 because of the amazing speakers and the camera.
On the CM13 thread, it says that the GPS is working, but something is written about QC location. What's QC there?

I actually need the quick settings tweaks because I need the switcher. 2g only, 3g only, 4g only, 4g/3g. It's important because sometimes the phone automatically switches from 4g to 3g if it thinks the 4g signal is less. And 4g uses band 3, 1800MHz whereas 3g uses 2100MHz(no clue about the band number here).
So I need to keep it on 4g only in this case.
And in some areas, neither 4g nor 3g is available, so I'll have to make do with 2g.

Qualcomm izat doesn't work but then again that is mostly superfluous if you have Google services.
Right now, GPS works on Cm13 but is not super accurate {probably 20 meters or so}

Come on now people, we all know how it works by now. They are fixing some issues on CM13 as we speak. Once CM13 is made official, the custom rom flood gates will open. Give it time.

Gravity Box work perfect on Stock Rom, no need of AOSP ROM for GB to work.
Gravity Box and App Settings (v1.13) are my have to have modules in Xposed and they work great.

IMO the axon 7 is better than the one plus 3 or honor 8 (in terms of hardware) but the lack of roms is definitely a deal breaker for some people. However in about a week or so I'm going to start working on porting AOSP to the axon 7. Iv'e never ported a rom before so I can't make any promises on when it'll be done (if ever lol). I know a thing or two about programming so I think I'll be able to figure something out, so stay tuned!

It wouldn't be easy starting out now, and it'll take a while. You could start by heading over to the op3 thread and see any AOSP Marshmallow rom.
Then maybe ask in the Q&A section for porting this rom to the Axon 7.

Oh well, do the quick settings tweaks like 2g/3g/4g switcher(network mode) work on the stock rom?

Damn. Yeah it interfered with the system quicksettings, and caused a bootloop. I think I might have to go with the CM13 rom in this case.

Same thing happened with cm14 for the Moto X pure, once it got finished, more and more 7.1.1 roms started flooding in xD.

When I use pixel experience on my mido, it just feel the same when I use my S9+ ?
Only icons and toggles that make huge differences.

As far as I know when using Mi devices, there isn't any touchwiz or even Samsung Experience port to Xiaomi devices.....
But in Samsung sub forum, there is MIUI custom rom for Samsung devices :laugh:

So u mean it cannot be ported? Or nobody hasnt done yet? that would be cool if someone try to port it?

I even can't port or create any rom. But I also want any Samsung rom for my mido.

Why are there so few ROMs for the S10+ ?

Hey guys!
I recently bought the S10+ been wondering why there are only 2 custom Roms available.
Normally you have thousands and more after a few month and you can't even decide which one to take.
Greez, skrippi

It's a fairly new device lol

Ok. I normally had the feeling that on other devices it went much faster. But ok THank you!

Compared to OnePlus devices for instance it is true, development starts as soon OnePlus releases a device ( OP7pro for example).

Just read about how root is achieved on S10, then you will get an idea as to why there are so few custom roms.

S10s one ui has everything so why do you want a rom thats gonna be full of bugsand unstable just buy a oneplus if you want roms

Because the roms do mostly have much more features and give you more control over your phone.
Besides my roms used in past have always had a better battery life than the original firmware.

one ui 2.0

hi there, when we will get the one ui 2.0 custom rom for our Samsung S8 devices?

Maybe when you create it.

Not soon alteast, even I doubt that a custom ROM with OneUI 2.0 will exist lol, 2hard

S7 has OneUI 1.0 with Pie ports so if it can be done there it shouldn't be impossible here. We only need someone that can do it.

That's because the Note 7 FE (same chip as the S7/S7E) was released with Android 7 and got updated until Pie, so they didn't have to port everything to the S7/S7E by scratch, they had a base already

The problems start when you want something you got no idea of programming. People don't work on demand, they do what the like to do because the can do. And they are helpful to those who can't do it when they share their result FOR FREE! Nothing more.

Exactly, that's why I say to not have any hope for OneUI 2.0, someone have to want to work in his/her free time, on something very difficult, and for free.
I'm already grateful with LineageOS 17.1, I though I wouldn't see even 10.0 on the S8/S8+ lol

Such a shame for Samsung even the cheapest Plastic Galaxy A series are getting Android 10 one ui 2.0 and the Samsung flagship device like Galaxy S8+ is not going to get it. Plz XDA developers make a custom rom for Galaxy S8+ based on Android 10 one ui 2.0

never samsung buy again. stuck only 2 updates so sayed.

This will not work. OneUI requires the Samsung framework.

Why oh why? Better sell and buy samsung if this is a must have feature

Confused ?

Samsungs OS is heavy and a bit of a mess, porting it would be hit and miss even with talent and a lot of time.
I think I can save you the bother though.
It's not a very good OS.
Plus if you've give OnePlus a few years they'll probably have copied it completely.
Nah I'm joking, but it is a crap OS, buy a Samsung if you want a Samsung. It's the best way and probably the only way.

Samsung = bull**** overload. They are the leaders of bloatware.
I still using it Samsung Note 10+ 5g if Oxygen OS can be ported to the phone. More. The Note 10 section is allmost only for exynox models and 1,2 topics about the better european model, with Snapdragon..
Oos ob2 rom.zip = 2.8gb
OneUI 2.5 rom.zip - 5.8 gb (talking about Bloatware...)

must be the dumbest question I've heard it a while? u want a bloated software sell op and get ur urself this samsung phone

It's easy to make rum free of bloatware apps. I have experience in this regard, but I have no knowledge of ROM port.

Everyone shamed this topic but I'll also be happy if someone manage to port it. I'm not dev but I try to help.
