AOSP? - One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I got my m9, coming from the GS3 and I love this phone. I use SlimRom on my gs3 and I noticed there isn't a port for the m9. From what I'm finding, there aren't any AOSP based roms on the m9? I see that CrDroid has a gapps package with mostly AOSP apps and is CM based. Is there a particular reason for no such development or is it simply because the m9 doesn't yet have enough users? OR: am I mislead about what the AOSP actually is, and I'm looking for a fairy?

You posted the question in the M9+ General Forum, you should ask in the M9 General Forum.

Yep... That I did. Not sure how to close this either

@SeanMurphy
Thread moved to M9 q&a section, that's where questions go.

M9 uses 64 bit proc which is challenging for AOSP devs to port over to. You can follow the progress in the Cyanogen Mod thread in Original Development section. I think the rom works, but no camera and still on 1.32 firmware. Once Cyanogen gets up and running I think most of the other AOSP devs will be able to join the fray. If I'm not mistaken, Slim is based on CM.

Why are there 2 development threads?

This maybe a stupid question but back in the day the development threads were only one. There were no "original" development section, I'm wondering when did this happen and what's the difference between either thread? (Same thing with my previous phone the gnex) Thanks.
As far as I can tell, "original" section is for ROMs created entirely by the devs based on the official Android sources.
The "regular" dev section is for cooked ROMs based on existing ROMs like Samsung's releases.

Ahh that makes sense the original section is all AOSP and the other is based off Samsung GS3 official builds.

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.

Beginner help please - CyanogenMod 13 and questions

Hi there, I'm new to these threads and recently put cyanogenmod 12.1 on my nexus 7. I was surprised how clean and well optimized it ran so I was going to put cyanogenmod 13 on my HTC One M9.
So I was curious if there was anyone on these forums that had the time to answer some beginner questions.
1: I have carrier locked HTC One M9 from Australia, can I unlock and install Cyanogenmod 13?
2: How can I backup my original Rom?
3: Any recommendations?
Thank you in advance
Go into recovery and twrp has a backup button. Save it to your micro SD card
1. You will need to get S-OFF to be able to flash MM 3.xxx.xxx firmware to be able to run CM 13.
2. You need to go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3066720
3. Read and read

Since I had a similar question to what's been posted here. I'm going to ask in this thread. I've been looking for non-sense(no pun intended) roms, for my phone and found that CM looks like something I'd like. However, all I've found are nightly builds. Is it a good idea to wait until there are some stable builds or are those nightly builds good enough? Been looking for non-sense roms all over, but it seems all the top ones are derived from sense, I'm just interested in getting as far away from stock as I possibly can.
Candy rom and CM are the only builds I've used on M9....
Candy is CM based and runs far better than stock CM nightly builds...
CM will get there...but for now I'm avoiding it...
Also...candy rom will run on 2.x firmware....and CM13 will not....g

Newbie here, just did my first root + got a custom rom (CM13) [if you're thinking of getting it now, please don't. I'm doing you a favor.]
However, releasing what nightly's are, im now wondering how stable is this 'Candy rom' you speak of?

Small question, if you will. Does CandySix bring all the features that CM does? By this I mean, root, the UI customizations such as menu colors, themes, and UI tweaks. I'm using ViperOne right now, and although I like its UI themes and colors a lot, I don't like Sense that much. I know this isn't all that related to the thread but I don't want to open up a new thread just to ask about this stuff.

Candy is far more feature rich than CM vanilla roms...
Give it a try...I think you'll like it...g
I will try it then, thanks for the help.

Most stable Android 7 custom rom?

In your opinion what's the most stable and bug free Sense based Android 7 custom rom out there?

Also, the question is easy to answer: There are no Sense based Android 7 ROMs for the M8. Android 6 is the latest for Sense.

Sense 7 is not the same as Android 7. Also, it was Sense 8 that was ported from the HTC 10 (and still Android 6).
There are only 3 ROMs with Sense 8 (S.ROM, LeeDroid and ICE) so just pick one or two and flash them, and try for yourself. They are all stable and great ROMs.
I'm currently running the Resurrection Remix Rom. While not Sense based, it is Android 7.1.2. It's super slick. The only, and I mean only downside is that you can't use android auto with it. I'm working on finding a way around that, but for now that is how it is.
None of them are as smooth as sense based marshmallow from my testing.
I've also tried GPE 6.0 ROM and it's simply not as smooth as Sense. I really don't get it

There's quite a few on 7.x but nothing major. If you use Maps to get across places then I certainly wouldn't recommend

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.
