Hi,
I just recently bought a brand new P2 that comes with stock Marshmallow S062 ROM. Recently I noticed that I could upgrade to S233 (Nougat) ROM by downloading a 2 GB update. While I am quite happy with the performance of Marshmallow, is it worth upgrading to Nougat? Are there any noticeable bugs on the newer ROM? Thanks.
I would definitely say it's worth it. You are then on the latest security patch etc.
Most bugs are fixed in Nougat and it's very fast with some battery improvements.
I would highly recommend doing a factory reset after the upgrade. I had a few issues after upgrading that were fixed with a wipe.

Thanks a lot man, I just upgraded to Nougat, and I notice that there are already more free RAM (from 1.8 to 2.4 GB free), and some games run more smoothly. I hope that the battery will last as long as before!
*As of now, I haven't experienced any bugs, even without any factory reset. If the device can keep running without any problem, I won't do any factory reset.

Hello everyone,
I'm posting on here because I can't find any solution to my dilemma which I am sure that other people in the AOSPA legacy community have also experienced. I have been using Paranoid Android on my T989 since the 4.4.3 update and I have regularly updated my roms since then. Somehow ever since I updated my phone to 4.5 beta 3, something prevents me from being able to hear or be heard during regular phone calls around an hour after I restart my phone.
I have tried everything to try to make my phone back to normal, I have updated my versions of AOSPA, I have downgraded to stable versions, I have gone to a debloated stock rom (which worked perfectly fine but who likes touchwiz android 4.1.2?) and back to AOSPA, I tried the latest Carbon nightly rom and the problem persisted, I have wiped my internal memory, cache, davlik, etc. multiple times. I am at a total loss as to what I should do to fix this issue. I'm currently running it on 4.6 beta 1 and I still have the issue.
I really love my GS2 and I don't want to part with it or have it running stock. Please help me.
I really appreciate it,
Chris
I've had the same issue , I was running the latest liquid smooth rom . I just flashed back to stock using Odin and all is fine on the stock rom . I just rooted again and am hesitant to install another kitkat rom for fear of this calling issue ........ Anyone else with this problem ?

I am also getting this problem on Slim 7.8....must be an audio-caf issue....Can someone go back to an old KK rom (one from earlier months) and see if they experience the same issue? Preferably cyanogenmod
I flashed to stock rom via oden and spent the weekend with the phone and all was good , I flashed to the latest cm-11 with no addons , stock cm-11 kernal and after an hour or so I lost call audio again . We must have done something to the phone in a previous rom cause not many people are having this issue . Now I have flashed about 75 different roms with no issue , I hope someone finds the problem cause I'm not to keen on the stock rom !
I've seen posted that snapchat was the cause of the no call audio problem we are having , I flashed the latest liquid smooth rom last night , download all my apps that I usually do except snapchat and I've had no issues with the calling bug . All is working great .

Hey, who already did update with this? Via OTA? I'm so awaiting thiiiiis
Flashed this morning..
Based on the last OTA from what I can see.
Dolby Atmos installed and seems to be working
Xposed still doesn't work
Posted root method for stock rom is working still
Dirty flash from stock breaks Play Store, so need to do a clean wipe
If i'm honest, no real visible improvements, still the same benchmark scores...
This phone is still..massively underwhelming considering the hardware...

I diffed this one against an official one and no surprise, the only differences are Dolby Atmos and that the ROM "dev" has spammed the build.prop file with outdated and mostly useless tweaks.
y test the rom, no issues everything is OK for the moment. thanks
Ps: for root this rom ???
On witch rom stock is it based ?
Hello,has anyone who flashed the rom had the problem that he can't receive calls at 4g?
How has Marshmallow been working on the Note 4? I am still on 5.1.1, and have been putting off upgrading to see how it's been. Any issues that would prevent me from having a good experience upgrading?
I'm liking 6.0 with Grace Rom and xceed kernel...I had problems initially due to user error...I didn't wipe after install correctly...after I fixed that it's been really good. I like the look and speed of Grace a lot.
Edit...Damn spell check
Hi all,
I looking to upgrade my N5X's OS to something newer and hopefully faster.
Any recommendations? Or should I just factory reset and change kernel?
Best,
MoRoses
Wait Android 10.

Runs perfectly on mine.
Back story: My OP3 has been running Pie for a while and I'm not impressed. The phone lags unless I force close a bunch of apps, it gets hot, and the battery dies. I'm running all the same apps I ran on Oreo and Nougat before it. Im retiring my OP3 and when I do I want to revert its firmware to an older, more stable version.
I don't care about security updates and it doesn't matter to me if I'm on Android 9 or 6. Im looking for performance mostly for things like Android Auto, google maps, etc, GPS and WiFi.
What do you recommend? Is there a firmware that is widely regarded as "best overall"? A search on the OP forums had a couple people say OOS 5.0.8 (the last 8.0 update before Pie) but Im wondering if maybe Android 7 or even 6 might be smoother / faster. I don't mind using older firmwares if I get better speed / performance.

Stock ROM comes with its own firmware which would be the best for that version of ROM. So if you are going to flash stock OOS, simply flash the full ROM. Don't flash a different firmware unless you have an issue and it is advised.
The creators of custom ROMs themselves state in their ROM threads which firmware is suitable for their ROM. Stick to that and don't flash another firmware unless you have an issue and are advised to do so.
