What Rom do you use ? - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi i know this is probably a very commonly asked thing, but seeing as it is general discussion i thought i would ask anyway.

[Q] Which ROM should I use for my One M8?

Hello! So...
I've heard of ViperOne M8, Android revolution and insert coin. But I'm wondering, which should I use? I'm a big fan of stock sense 6 if that helps and I'm fairly dependent on battery life.
Also, my device is s-on. I have flashed ROMs on other devices so I'm not a newbie, but will S-on be a problem?
Thanks!
PS: I'm running Android 4.4.3

Hi it kind of depends on which tweaks you like and want to have. They are - as you already know - all sense based, so I would just test them all and decide. To name one more there is also Maximus HD, which I like as well. But I'm using ViperOne at the moment.
If you want a Sense based close to stock rom = ARHD / MaximusHD; Otherwise InsertCoin/Viper
If you want GPE I'd can only tell you about ARHD GPE
This thread will be closed soon because it will turn in a rom comparison thread (if it isn't already) and these kind of threads are forbidden on xda.
You need to sort your own personal preferences and hold them against a rom of your liking. It's all personal.......
Cheers.
Edit :
Btw s-on is not a problem to flashing roms.
Thread closed.
OP - since you clearly haven't yet, please read the Forum rules. "Best ROM/kernel" threads are not permitted.
As always, the advice is to try for yourself. The surrounding subjectivity and opinion only leads to a dreadful mess... (polite version).

Noobish question, but how does an Official build differ from an Unofficial? IE, CM12 vs DU, is DU considered Official because it is unaltered AOSP?

if i'm not mistaken, official builds are done and maintained by a group member from the developing team of any given rom. Unofficial builds are done by any member who does not belong to the developing team and who decides to build any given rom. Also i believe that any lines of code used are not officially submitted and supported and any support would have to be done by the unofficial rom builder and not the developing team.
hope this makes sense and helps in any way.

My last phone was running CM 7.3 Gingerbread, so please bear with my noobness. I'm not big on flashing new ROMs. I like to find a daily driver and run with that.
Right now, I'm trying to decide which ROM to try after stock. I'd like to get rid of a lot of the bloatware and gain more customization. I've heard great things about your ROM in the past on other phones, so am leaning towards it.
Things I absolutely want:
HDMI/Slimport out. I don't know if this feature is ROM specific, or if the G3 does it automatically thru hardware. It works great on stock.
LG's IR Controller apps. I like that the G3 has the IR feature. I have it programmed to replace all my remotes currently.
I'm with MetroPCS. They use TMobile's towers. Should there be any problems (I haven't seen anything on this in search for the 851 and don't think it would be, but thought I could ask people smarter than I).
Do those features work on your ROM? If not, does anyone know what ROMs those features/apps are functioning?

Do not ask about other ROMs, this is NOT the thread for that, flash and find out, you don't like it? Uninstall it, it's simple. Also, regarding asking about if d851 supports METRO, ask the carriers, not in this, this is for the ROM questions, nothing else, please keep the OT to the minimum
Oh, I am sorry. I thought I was in the Q&A thread, not the developer section. Oh wait, I am.
I apoligize for asking about other ROMs... but asking about this specific ROM in it's specific Q&A thread?
Yeah. Replies like yours will definitely keep a lot of stuff to a minimum. Keep up the good work.

freezes
For some reason it freezes when doing heavy task. For example on the web or listening to music it freezes and the system slows down to the point where lock screen takes about a minute to lock. A simple reboot fixes the problem. I am coming off a Clean flash but stock kernel.
Anyone have any luck with using a slimport out to HDMI on this ROM?
Just checking...
I've got a Lg G3 D851 (32GB) but its not the T-mobile version. Does this still mean that I can flash this rom? Or is there anything else I should do?
Can't wait to use this rom so reply as soon as you can people.

I'm kinda new to all this so please don't mind the 'noob' questions. I was under the impression that its not a TMO version if it doesnt say T-Mobile on the phone. :silly: Thank you though, will flash rom right away.
One more question... Is this a stable version of the rom or a test version? Cuz I couldn't figure out which one it is; stable or test version.

Bluetooth...
Just installed the rom and its awesome. Just one problem, the Bluetooth doesn't seem to be working properly. Can't connect my smartband. Whenever I try to turn off Bluetooth I get an error saying that Bluetooth has stopped working. Any solutions?

Nope... I'm 100% sure I did a clean install. Did a clean install again for a second time around 30 minutes ago... still no luck.
It's probably a BT LE device. If you read the last page or two of Bliss Pop or Resurrection you'll see they have issues. Probably something in the base code. I know the Bliss Pop dev says he might have a fix but hasn't released an update.

[Q] What is best/stable/latest ROM available for G3 D851

*I would also like to know the opinions of other testers and devs for this question.
Nobody is going to help you with this question because the point is for you to try the rom yourself. Do some research, bite the bullet and start flashing any and every rom until you find one that suites your needs.
Oh, I think some people might be willing to help, the problem is, your question is to nebulous. You need to give more information.
First the easy stuff.
Newest? Look at the dates of the threads or go to the main thread on ROMs, it usually lists the latest updates. Unless you are taking about the newest version of android (like Lollipop). In that case, look for a higher number. Kit Kat is 4.4,: Lollipop is 5.0
Most Stable? Get a rooted version of rooted Kit Kat stock. It was made specifically for the phone and will likely be most stable
Best? I want slimport out, USB otg, working Bluetooth, and stable. I went with a debloated version of rooted stock (10r version). That is currently the "best" for me. You might want speed, even less bloat, more customization, etc. Your best is going to be different than others.
Give us more details and people can help you. A blanket request for "best" is not enough to go by.
Good luck!
You're not going to get more stable than stock based. I'd be using that if I didn't care about open source and possible spying. Right now I've got PACMAN 4.4.4 without GAPPS with minor issues I can live with but am getting tired of. Might try Carbon next or something.
Avoid anything 5.0 based for now, as it really doesn't feel ready yet.

Thanks for detailed answer, actually u said it right i am newbie so looking for good available rom in terms of stable/latest/fast.
i thought i should ask here before going to try one, as i said i am newbie so the one suggested here should be fine and i can give it a try, then i will surely try others as well.
Problem is that my phone is not rooted, can u help me to get it rooted?

Rooting can be daunting if you are not confident and knowledgeable about modding your phone. As always, there is a risk when installing custom ROMs.
But with success, the G3 rocks! Good luck!

Custom ROM with LG Customizations

I just go the LG G3 and I unlocked and rooted it. Now I'm looking for a custom rom. I see there are quite a few 5.0 roms but since there is no official source, all these ROMS are pure Android and I am looking for one which has LG customization (as I really like them). I would like to know what's currently the "best" (and stable rom) for D851?

What's been most stable for me and what I consider the "best" has been SkyDragon Rom here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=57862770&postcount=973
Along with the Dev's custom kernel too: http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-lg-g3/orig-development/kernel-skydragon-v0-0-3-t2847017

None of the stock KK Roms have been updated in awhile. I think Devs are waiting on LP to be released. Once you flash it, you'll see that there's not too much to update anyways. No reason to update Roms if there's nothing new to add.

Yep, I've actually ran both. IMO, Skydragon Rom just runs a little smoother and also with the SR Remix Rom, I was having all sorts of issues with being able to edit/delete files using any kind of File Explorer app. You'll notice in the thread for that Rom, that a lot of people were having that issue. With Skydragon Rom, I don't have that issue at all so that's also a main reason that I'm on Skydragon.
They're both pretty comparable though so pretty much just personal preference. I also like the fact that the Dev for Skydragon builds his own kernels too.

Thanks for the info. I will check out the Skydragon ROM.
Installed SkyDragon earlier today and so far everything seems to be working great. Though I wouldn't have mind at least some customization because after the first boot for few minutes I was confused if the rom was actually installed it not.

Oreo for HTC10

So, my wife picked up the Pixel phone today from Verizon and it's updated to Oreo already. I've got my HTC 10 running stock but I used Sunshine to Unlock the bootloader when I purchased the phone a while back. I was happy with stock and never rooted the phone. But, I'm jelly now and will root and install TWRP tonight. I've been out of the game for a while but my rooting/flashing days go back to Thunderbolt, DNA (my fav), HTC M7, M8, and now my 10. I wanted to ask a few quick questions. Please understand I'm not making requests, demands, or anything. I've donated to the devs in the past. One question, for the 10 on Verizon US, what is the closest to the Pixel ROM available? Also, I remember back in the day devs releasing ROMs pretty quickly after OTA updates to the flagships and was wondering if there's some technical reason around why we haven't seen them on the HTC 10 thread. Thanks in advance!
Just gotta check the ROMs section of the forum. If you want the closest thing to Oreo/Pixel experience get a AOSP ROM. Lineage is good place to start but there are plenty of other ROMs to check out.

Don't know much abt Verizon..cuz I'm using international version & for that the best closest, most stable Rom for HTC 10 is Pure Fusion Os rom in my opinion..the only thing you'll miss there is Sense Camera,Rest Rom is Purely amazing..✌?✌?
I am suggesting you to go ahead with Resurrection remix official for your HTC.. I am already running on my HTC 10 and there are so many tweaks and customisation available.
+1 for Res Remix for LOS based ROM
for AOSP based ROM I suggest AOSP Extended
--Both of these ROMs I have found to be the most stable with the most tweaks
For Sense based ROM, LeeDrOiD or Viper ROM.
Or install MultiROM and have them all installed like I do.
HTC has announced that the 10 will be getting Oero officially so once that is released, the Sense based ROMs will most likely start jumping on that and re-basing their ROMs.
LOS/AOSP ROMs are already in the process (or at least some are) of updating to Oreo
Throwing in another recommendation for PureFusion. It's the closest thing to the Pixel that you'll find and is updated often.
Another one for the pure fusion. It's the closest you can get to pixel on the 10.
