Hello Guys.
I know there are a few Oreo based ROMs out there for our device MOTO Z PLAY.
I cannot install all these due to time and data usage restrictions.
If anyone could tell me what could be best option in terms of stability and camera performance, that would be highly appreciated!
Wait for stable Oreo stock. Patience is a virtue.
Oreo official should be coming very soon. I can say i have tried every single oreo custom rom on my phone and eventually i went back to stock N because there was one thing or another which wasnt quite right. E.g with xperience 12 the rom works very well but i could not save photos to sd card and i really need to do this so i had to go back.
I think this is good.
Hello anilkumar121989, I am testing the cosmic addison so far 3 days of testing and an update does not hear bugs, and I am really enjoying the ROM design and in that little time of use it has remained stable.

Just wait for official
All Oreo ROM are still in beta and release candidate state so bugs are to be found here and there. Most have camera saturation bug, unable to save photo to sdcard, and lower volume speaker but if you can live with that I've found that AOSP, Cosmic, and Xperience to be stable enough for daily use.
Also, there are no black theme, night mode, RAW capture, and Camera2API in official Oreo so I much prefer custom ROM plus our Devs are awesome like Alberto and TeamMex to mention a few, you shouldn't worry too much about bugs.
Thanks for the effort, but it is better to wait for the official update.
If you are too eager to get Oreo now... Try the official Oreo soak test... Just amazing... No bug at all... Superb audio and finally I can call using volte on second sim
Camera does not work

Whenever I install a 8.0 or .8.1 ROM, with x64 or x86 gaps. The camera does not work. some things work for third-party camera apps. :crying:
My Moto Z Play reteu is on stock Android 7.0. It has unlocked bootloader and it's rooted.
Let's say Oreo is released. For obvious reasons I can't install any OTA updates. So, will there be a way to install Oreo via bootloader (fastboot)? Even if it's rooted? I'm really noob to this. Thanks in advance.

True. Camera/video haunts most of the devices using custom ROMs. But using footej helps. So not much of an issue. Once you start using Oreo, forget stock you will never come back to 7.1 even!
Indeed, Oreo rom works great with FP gestures even though its unofficial. Some rumors is that the 15.1 LOS Oreo rom is going official so development is not dead. Go to some stable oreo roms instead of stock and wait and see if P roms will be available for P2 (it most certainly wont)

I would just add to your comment that Android P will be officially released at the earliest in August.
It is not at all certain that someone will develop a custom Rom based on Android P for our Lenovo P2.
If "Yes" I think You don't expect to have it available before the end of this year.
So, I finally changed to Oreo, since FP gestures are also available. XenonHD is awesome.
Video recording bug is solved through adding
media.camera.ts.monotonic=0
TO build.prop file.
It is sometimes a bit buggy when using whatsapp built-in videocamera app but normal camera apps work just fine. Snap Camera is my favorite by the way.

Is is stable on mine aex the best Oreo Rom I've ever seen only problem is fp gestures who I don't care about I don't use them
Hey guys !! First of all taking so early about Android P is useless cause Google has released only 2nd beta. Now there will be 3rd beta and then the final update with source codes. Without source codes nobody is able to build a custom rom. Google releases the codes only with the final update. Secondly shubam the well known dev said that they have put there hard earned money in P2 so as long as there P2 is good and running we will get updates. We can even expect Android Q.:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
So after testing AOSP extended, LineageOS17, Havoc OS and even DerpFest OS, I think moto z2 (albus) doesn't do great with GSI for android 10. There always was something off and the stability was far from one you expect from a gsi. I used KVT 2.3 aroma to boot. However, there are other devs releasing unofficial GSI roms as well which I haven't tested. Like ExPressLukeGSI or Trisquel collection which probably has a special thing for albus. So I am posting this expecting replies from anyone showing love to z2 play, If you know something then tell me. If you want to test the GSIs and can't find links, ask me.
i would to try gsi but i use daily mt phone and i need to something stable at now mokee is working ok but i had a issue with calls. i never try this treble roms xd

Mokee Q or Pie? This ROM are stable?
does anyone know if they are developing a gsi or normal Android 10 ROM for Moto Z2 Albus because I have been waiting for it for a long time and I would like to ask that please continue supporting this team please
@Euiz702 GSI is not specific for some device. You can use almost any GSI on Z2 Play already now

What kind of problems did you have? I'm testing phusson's plain AOSP and so far works good. Scrolling and some apps, especially Google maps run smoother than on stock Pie. I'm using modded Google Camera 6 (shared in Apps&Mods forum), it works good, just HDR+ can't be turned off and it tends to improve reality too much. I just didn't manage to install Magisk yet.
I also wanted to try Trisquels's gsi-albus stuff, but SourceForge has been working badly recently and I wasn't able to download anything

10 with V2.3 kvt (btw, previous post should not be quoted )
I also tried some Pies a couple of months earlier with V7 kvt but camera wasn't working there

Thanks, it worked. But I'm probably going back to stock, the battery life is pretty bad

If you want a rom with good battery life, try DescendantOS x (10). Havoc is good, but not for battery life.

I don't know and I already left. But before, my battery usually lasted for one day, now maybe half maybe a bit more.
I tried DescendantX, but it seemed a bit undone with something in status bar. But maybe I try it once more.
I also tried GSIs from gsi-albus project on SourceForge and they seem good, but they have always navigation bar on and fingerprint gestures off (doesn't matter what you select in kvt installer). So I wander whether they are really built with Albums in mind...
Can someone here help me decide whether to take the plunge or not into flashing a custom ROM on my daily driver Z2 Play, by clarifying some of my doubts.
1) Whether the Moto experiences like Moto Actions and Moto Display will be available when using custom ROMs and GSIs?
2) Will it be possible to return to stock ROM after flashing a 64bit Treble based ROM?
3) Also what is the best, most stable Android 9 or 10 based ROMs for Moto Z2 Play?

There are no stable Pie or Q ROMs for Z2 Play unfortunately. Only GSI ones that are all more or less bugged and it seems like no developer is interested in this phone anymore. For stable ROMs you can choose only from 8.1 ones which are all quite outdated at this point as well. Anyway I use unofficial LineageOS 15.1 as daily driver for like 1,5 year now and have no complaints, it's absolutely rock solid and latest release has February 2020 security patches. Moto actions, Moto display (kinda, it's different than stock) and fingerprint gestures works.
But honestly I don't think there is much point in flashing custom rom now, especially if you have stock 9.0.
Pixel experience plus on Albus
I have flashed the Pixel Experience Plus Android 10 GSI on Albus by using the latest KVT 2.4 and it works like charm.
There are no major bugs, everything is working fine like basic functions and performance is awesome.
Only ambient display is not working, other than that almost everything is working fine and this GSI can be used as daily driver.
And magisk is also working.
Did anyone tried to install Erfan's Oxygen OS GSI on Albus???

Good to hear that pixel experience is working for you. I am based in india and none of gsi seem to provide volte functionality. Can you confirm that the rom you have tried is working with volte? Please provide the source of the pixel experience gsi you have tried. i have tried Erfans gsi, its same volte doesn't work. Thanks
Hi!
I have updated my 5T to the latest version of OxygenOS 10.0.0 over OTA. After the update the speaker stopped to work. If I active the speaker it does not work and the caller cannot hear my voice.
Any updates on this issue?!!!
I am thinking to install a custom ROM. Most probably "PE" but I have noticed that it is no longer receive any updates. what is your recommendation?

No issues like that for me.
Running A10 with oos and custom kernel.
PA will be a good recommendation from my side ,if you wanna try custom roms.
Hey guys,
Tempted to install the Xiaomi EU ROM as I've heard it is very good for battery and performance. I have a few questions with regards to updates however. Does xiaomi.eu support OTA updates after the first flash, does it support major software update flashes OTA without the need to wipe data, and does it work with custom recoveries? I have orangeFox downloaded right now but I can change to TWRP.
Thanks
EDIT: Just flashed Lineage, then Arrow, then dotOS, prefer Dot out of the 3, great ROM would reccomend.

Coming from F2 Pro EU ROM it wasn't OTA updates, you needed to manually download and flash via TWRP. That could be different with OrangeFox as we only had TWRP on F2. Even when flashing manually you didn't need to wipe even when going from A10 to A11 as long as you kept on Stable route or the weekly route (I went stable)
I'm tempted by this device since mi-globe ROM is since ca. a week also available. It is based on xiaomi.eu Builds but you can customize the build by removing a bunch of MIUI apps (BugReport, Browser, Weather, Email, LiveWallpaper, File-Explorer) and block the Xiaomi Sync Daemon. See mi-globe FAQ.
I would be interested on any reports and feedbacks of xiaomi.eu or mi-globe users on this device compared to the Stock ROM , I'm particularly interested in the Cam performance (Stock ANX and/or GCam builds).

Hey, I just remembered I posted this lol. You're right, you can dirty flash over your existing build, but I went for DotOS after all haha

Hey, I know its not Xiaomi EU but I found DotOS and ArrowOS to be miles better than MIUI, the camera performance isn't great with the pre-installed cam on both ROMs but with GCam PX it's actually very very good!

Thx, I also prefer clean fast CustomROMs over Stock in general, but thaught that at this stage gauguin has not yet such stable daily driver cROMs and until that I would go with xiaomi.eu/mi-globe - without at least those I would not buy a Xiaomi device.
For Custom ROMs I prefer those with Signature Spoofing Support and particularly like crDroid. If I order this device (depends if RN10 Pro does not become more interesting soon) I guess I have to try out by myself Nice to see the community growing here.
EDIT: Redmi Note 10 Pro Max is rumored to have Snapdragon 768G, Amoled, 108 Mpx - so definitely will wait if it gets that and will be availanle at a price point under Mi 10T Lite and will soon get Custom ROMs.
