rooting tip:
since basically rooting will or might void warranty right,so ill share what i did to a friends phone...
basically just created a nandroid back up of his current rom using skins recovery..
then installed a new custom rom(rooted rom)
voila...2 bird 1 stone,,,custom rom and root at the same time...
and in case you want the old one back just restore to back up..
not sure if this method counts the bin....
here is for the list of updating to official and unofficial stock roms

Flash Kernel Without Increasing Custom Bin Count
Special Thanks to FAQBLY For This Wonderful zip
faqbly has compiled a script that can flash boot.img from CWM Recovery and it will not increase Custom Bin Count.
Benefits
You can Install Custom Kernel without increasing your Custom Bin Count.
Below is the ZIP file from faqbly
http://www.mediafire.com/?26928er6dqmucrm
Instructions:
In the .zip file provided by faqbly, you have to replace the boot.img with the boot.img from the tar file of a kernel
Example would be to download kernel from Maroc-OS
You Will Have A .tar file that contains the boot.img

HOW TO FLASH KERNEL GUIDE THE EASIEST WAY
Requierements:
boot img file (2 the kernel your flashing and termagrancis kernel)
mai77 flasher thingy
and cwm of mads or skins...
procedure:
download the kernel respectively,both kernels are on tar file do you need to extract them using any extarctor (for me i used androzip form market)or tyu can use es file manager...
extract them on sdcard one file at a time and rename them
example kernel 1
after extrract rename boot.img to boot.imgx
do the same thing on the other kernel,but rename differently...
now,,,decide which kernel to flash..
example
i renamed
boot.imgx(marcos kernel)
boot.imgz(terma kernel)
i will flash
terma kernel
rename or remove the other letter
the kernel you wnat to flash should have the boot.img name,.
now go to recovery..
install via zip
choose sd card update
choose SGYbiCWM.zip
and apply reboot,,,
youre done,.,,!
check under settings kernel...
this was the method ive opersonally used

BATTERY CALIBRATION!
AUTION: DO THIS PROCEDURE ONLY ONCE OR TWICE, FULLY DRAINED BATTERY CAN CAUSE CRYSTALLIZATION WHICH SHORTENS BATTERY LIFE.
HAVE CWM INSTALLED INCASE YOUR STOCK RECOVERY HAS NO ADVANCED OPTION.
1. Fully drain your battery, play some games, music, etc.. NO PORN!!
2. Let your battery cool for atleast 2 minutes
3. Restart phone to remove residual charge( it will boot only halfway)
4. After the phone shuts down remove battery and let it cool for atleast 2 minutes.
5. Re insert battery and charge your phone in OFF mode.
6. After the phone reaches 100% charge boot into recovery (Power+Home+Volume_up button)
7. Go to advance (I think some android has this in recovery, if not go to CWM and you will find it there).
8. Wipe battery stats.
9. Press Power/Back and Reboot your phone
10. Wait till the phone reaches 100% charge and disconnect charger
11. Have a happy life.
Before my phone has a battery life of less than a day (about 20 hours) with battery saver, task killer and minimal settings. After calibration my phone without task killer and battery saver installed lasts short of 3 days with moderate settings. I use only a Ram cleaner and V6 fast engine flush now. "Cleaner" apps are good, "Killer" are not..
THIS IS A BATTERY CALIBRATION PROCEDURE NOT A BATTERY LIFE EXTENDER(THERE IS NO SUCH THING), JUST SAYING SO THERE IS NO CONFUSION.

Hi Guys,
Since my watch has developed a problem (http://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-watch/help/question-huawei-watch-1-4-6-ios-pair-t3337462) I have figured out an on-the-fly return mechanism with the help of TWRP.
* This requires TWRP flashed.
** Your Facer and Watchmaker collection should be existed there (/sdcard/Facer & /sdcard/BeautifulWatches directories) already.
Since factory reset won't delete your directories in /sdcard/ ; they will stay, survive.
1- Keep a copy of facer & watchmaker wearable APKs on your /sdcard/ directory.
2- Once you have completed your factory reset & paired your phone.
3-
A) Press and hold power button until reset, Huawei logo pops and you will feel a long vibration.
B) Upon feeling the vibration, release the power button then a short press (Press/Release) quickly.
C) It will take you to the bootloader, go to Recovery (TWRP must be installed)
4- Once you are in TWRP, head to Advanced -> File Manager
5- Copy your .apk files you want to be installed on next reboot, facer.apk & watchmaker.apk for instance to /data/app/
6- Reboot to System.
Now you will find Facer & Watchmaker among your watchfaces.
I also keep Swapp wearable app there as backup, and copying it either.
Your watch is ready, from Factory Reset confirmation to this stage takes about 5-6 mins. Really on-the-fly.
I wish it will help.
Thanks for reading :good:

This thread will always be a Work In Progress. Please be patient, as we receive new development it will be posted here. Thank you very much!
Do subscribe to this thread to get notified on any new updates.
The "Complete Guide" series is back, now for the holy Nextbit Robin! (check out my profile for other "complete guide" threads for my past devices)
First things first, this guide is made mainly for our great Nextbit Robin - Ether. Some steps may or may not work for other phones...
Please note that the results of the following methods may vary. I will not be held responsible for destroying your device. PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK.
For increased chances of these working, ensure you're on the latest version of Robin.
If you don’t know what rooting, flashing and *explosion* means, this probably isn’t the thread for you.
Credit me if you want to take anything from this thread. DO NOT create duplicates of such threads.
Enjoy!
Complete guide to all things Robin:
NOTE: The chapters are in chronological order, meaning everything after Chapter 2 assumes you already have root and unlock.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHAPTER 0: TERMINOLOGY (in my own words)
- Terms
- Tidbit
(To be honest, if you need to even look at this, this thread isn't for you.)
- Root: Gaining full administrative control of your device. "Jailbreaking" in terms of Android.
- ROM: The customized operating system that your Android runs on.
- Kernel: The thingy that links software and hardware
- Radio: The thingy that sends and receives messages, calls and data.
- Flash: Installing a zipped file in Recovery Mode
- Recovery: The software that allows tweaking and flashing, and other weird stuff that will destroy your phone.
- Fastboot: The thingy that allows recovery mode to happen.
- Brick: The term says it all.
- Bootloader: Quite literal; loads the phone for bootup.
- Nandroid backup: A backup-ed image of your current system
- ADB: Android Debug Bridge; some command line tool that sends information from and to the phone to, and from the computer
- CWM: ClockWorkMod; a recovery system
- XDA: The holy website that is full of weird stuff that makes your phone wayyyy better.
Now let's paint a picture:
Imagine you are your Android phone.
Before "rooting", you are trapped in jail.
Upon "rooting and unlocking", you are released from jail.
You go to a shopping mall named "XDA".
You find a credit card lying on the floor from the company "Recovery". On the back, it says there is no passcode required, and there is a infinite amount of money inside.
You enter a store and get a sweatshirt with the word "ROM" on it.
You didn't buy the shirt, the shirt just happens to be free, but still requires you to swipe your credit card anyways.
You keep the receipt as a "backup", just in case the shirt spoils.
Just then, you get greedy and get all the badges in the store.
Stupidly, you pin all the badges on your shirt, turning it as heavy as a "brick".
Then, the shirt rips, unable to put (it rhymes with boot) it back together again.
Luckily you still have the receipt to return the shirt, and return back to your good old disgusting shirt.

CHAPTER 2: ESSENTIALS
- Backup
- Root
- Unlock
- TWRP
- Flashing
- Restoring backups
BACKUP:
Titanium Backup Method:
Use “Titanium Backup” batch backup
1. Menu -> Batch
2. Run -> Backup user apps + system data
OR:
Manual Non-Root Method:
- Messages: “SMS Backup & Restore”
- Contacts: should be synced with the cloud, if not: Export to SIM card
- Calendar: should be synced with the cloud
- Notes: use “Google Keep”, it will be synced with the cloud
- User Dictionary: “User Dictionary Backup”
- Call Logs: “Call Logs Backup & Restore”
- Launcher (assuming you use Nova Launcher): Settings -> Backup & import settings -> Restore or manage backups
- Apps: “Helium” or any other app
- Nandroid Backup
store all backups in internal storage and transfer to your computer
ROOT + UNLOCK + TWRP RECOVERY:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nextbit-robin/development/tool-robin-toolkit-v1-0-root-twrp-t3375908
(kudos to @daavm)
1. Download the tool
2. Just follow the instructions
**NOTE: Relocking again will result in data wipe**
FLASHING:
Clean Flash:
1. Backup your data!
2. Reboot into TWRP Recovery
3. Go into settings and enable “Use Aroma File Manager”
4. Wipe Dalvik, Cache, System & Data
5. Flash your chosen ROM, basebands, firmware updates and other crap
6. Flash any GApps package. (the one I use: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/gapps-lp-gapps-pa-gapps-aroma-installer-t3010798; kudos to @raulx222 & @slim Team)
7. Flash anything else (e.g. frameworks, boot animations, splash screens, themes etc.)
8. Reboot
9. DONE!
OR:
Dirty Flash: (flashing without wiping anything, used for updating to newer ROMs or reflashing)
1. Reboot into TWRP Recovery
2. ONLY wipe Dalvik Cache
3. Flash your chosen ROM, basebands, firmware updates and other crap
4. Flash any NEWER GApps package. If you manually installed/updated through Play Store, skip this step.
5. Flash anything else (e.g. frameworks, boot animations, splash screens, themes etc.)
6. Reboot
7. DONE!
It is perfectly fine if the first bootup takes a while, that is perfectly normal. Upon boot, Android will optimize itself so just let it do it’s work. Do put the phone under a fan as it does tend to get hot when optimizing since it is at max brightness or some dumb reason.
If it takes ages (like over 10mins) to boot up, it means you might have bricked your phone! Do source the XDA indices for any unbricking tutorial, or keep a lookout for an update on this page for instructions. (I don’t have any/don’t need to find any as I have never bricked any Android, so ya.)

DO NOT dirty flash if your newer ROM:
- Doesn't allow/support it
- Has a major update
- Has a Android version or firmware jump (e.g. from Lollipop to M)
- Is a totally different ROM from the previous one (e.g. from Stock to Cyanogenmod)
If after dirty flashing you experience any ROM issues (e.g. battery drain, lag etc.), I would advice you to do a clean flash instead.

RESTORING BACKUP:
Titanium Backup Method:
1. Use “Titanium Backup” batch restore
2. Menu -> Batch
3. Run -> Restore missing apps with data (*NOTE*: DO NOT RESTORE SYSTEM DATA)
4. Once done, go to Backup/Restore on the main app interface
5. Restore manually: Calendar Storage, Internet Bookmarks, Messaging SMS/MMS Prefs, Phone SMS/MMS/APN, User Dictionary, Wi-Fi Access Points**
6. Launcher Settings: (assuming you use Nova Launcher) Settings -> Backup & import settings -> Restore or manage backups
**What can I manually restore?**
Red: DO NOT RESTORE, YOU’LL END UP BRICKING/BOOTLOOPING YOUR PHONE!!!
White: 99% safe, go ahead
Green: 70% safe, beware of potential brick
Grey Stirkethrough: DO NOT RESTORE

Honestly, I don't encourage battery managers such as "Battery Doctor" or "Clean Master (Speed Booster)" as realistically, it takes up more battery or RAM in trying to keep the app open to "properly manage the battery". Yes there are benefits such a having a zippier G3, but there are better methods out there.

CHAPTER 8: ADDITIONAL INFO
- Device Architecture
Architecture: arm64 + arm
Screen DPI: 480
Drawable Class: xxhdpi (extra extra high density)
Google Play services - Build Suffix: (-448)
How does this affect me?
Well, when you install apps, downloading the correct arch version means the app is better optimised for our phone (and you'll potentially save some internal storage space too!)
As for Google Play services, you MUST install the correct build version. (Example: v9.0.90 (448-xxxxxxxx) )

Except it doesn't! Nextbit have explicitly stated that rooting your phone or loading a custom ROM etc will NOT void the warranty.
For increased chances of these working, update your KDZ to Lollipop first using OTA or Flash Tool.

Oh haha thanks for taking time to read through the thread mate! I'll get it changed tomorrow when I'm free. (And yes I did copy the templates from my V10 thread oops)
I AM NOT A DEVELOPER, I in no way claim to have made any of this myself, I'm just here to say how I manage to get as close to having Pixel software on my Galaxy S7 G930V as possible.
Basically I'll divide this into three main areas. ROM, Add-on Mods, and Apps.
Read All the way through before starting so as to not miss anything.
Also the add-on mods are installed at the same time as the ROM. That way you keep safety net and what not.
Lets start with the ROM, I am using Ufirm_QE2_Hybrid_Nougat_Rom_FlashFire_Install Status Official For VZW S7FLAT by CVertigo1 / jrkruse
jrkruse said:
Latest Ufirm QE2 Nougat Firmware For The S7 Flat Only
This well give you a Customizable NonRooted Rom that uses stock boot.img not the eng boot image so there is no lag and it will pass safetynet checks and samsung pay will work
Give this guy @umaro some thanks he worked on this until it became reality even when I gave up
These first 2 step must be done first unless you are on my previous version of this rom or my carrier specific rom that do not have root or if your unsure just do this first
This Will Wipe Your Phone
1. Unzip UFIRM_G930_Odin_Firmware.zip and flash all files in odin
2. Go through setup ignore invalid sim message and skip adding accounts
3. Go to Step 3 Below
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
To Flash Files in Odin simply launch Odin (Downloads later)
click on each button (Labeled BL, AP, etc.) and select their respective files that were extracted from the archive.
Each respective file's label has each corresponding label. (AP at the beginning of the file name, means put it in AP slot)
Then boot phone into download mode, press home, download, and volume down keys all simultaneously.
Connect it to computer and press the begin button in Odin.
jrkruse said:
If you are on one of my previous version of this rom or my carrier specific rom
1. Unzip UFIRM_G930_Odin_Firmware.zip
2. Use odin to flash BL and CP
3. Unzip ADB_Root_G930U_QE2Files.zip
4. Flash EngBoot image with odin
5. Root Phone. I'm not going to have half a page about rooting there is an entire rooting thread here. The Eng Boot.img can be found in the UFIRM_QD2_Modified_Nougat_Firmware Folder
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Rooting is very simple for this phone once the Eng Kernel has been flashed.

2. When the phone reboots, plug in phone to computer unlock developer options and enable USB debugging and Disable Verify Apps Over USB.
3. Unzip the Nougat_S7_Root_2_82_All_Carriers_V2.zip and run root.bat from your PC. If you Have Windows 10 from inside the Nougat_S7_Root_2_82_All_Carriers_V2 folder you may need press and hold shift and right click and click open command window here from the dialog box then in command prompt type name of the root bat you want to run and hit enter
4. This will install root when done phone will reboot
5. The process wipes dalvik cache so it will take a few minutes to reboot
6. If having problems getting Grant SuperSU dialog to come up you can delete the SuperSU app and root will be granted instantly to all root request
Give phone a few min to settle open developer options set animation scales .05 and others to .05

Removed Every thing except Samsung TTS and Samsung Gallary / Camera (you can remove if you prefer to use google camera, DO NOT REMOVE if you plan on using zero camera.)
I don't use the google camera because on my S7 the video records the audio out of sync with the video, I haven't figured out how to fix it. but zero camera allows me to use Photos app instead of gallary so.... yea. (Requires a purchase of the root app for alt gallery)
That's about it for the ROM install.
**note these were installed in FlashFire with the ROM so as to pass safty net.
Now here are the add-on mods I used:
Open-GApps - to get pixel icons, and connectivity service
Android 8 Emojis
iYTB Vanced (Modded YouTube)
Google Lens
Zero Camera Mod
Copy those mods onto internal storage with the ROM install and add them into FlashFire during the ROM install. Place them after the ROM zip, but before the Format Cache / Wipe System less Super SU.

THANKS A TON DEVS!!!! :good: :laugh: :good:
Let me know if anybody has anything else they have done to get this close!
I appreciate you putting all the links and mods into the same place. I have never flashed using FlashFire before (on a G930V) and this was an excellent guide for me.
My only trip up was I didn't understand the language about Camera/Google Camera/Zero Camera Mod and I tried installing the zero mod while debloating the camera off. So I will have to go back and do that.
I skipped the "flashables" youtube, emoji, lens but may end up going back for those.
Thanks again.
Update: I found a cool way to have the new Google now page in the launcher.
Launcher App:
First is the actual app. Typicaly I would just say use Nova but on the pixel launcher the Google Now page looks different than on other third party apps. I wanted this look, so here is how I found a way to get that new Google Now pag to appear on other launchers.
Step one, if you installed Google lens mod, you should be able to get the pixel launcher from the play store, if not get it from XDA labs or APK mirror. Set Google. Set it as your default launcher. Next you will need any third party launcher and Tasker. I'm using Lawn chair Launcher. (On Google play). Use button mapper pro to map pressing the home button to launch third party app. Go into Tasker and make a task, so that whenever Google pixel launcher is launched, open third party launcher. As long as the pixel launcher is set as your default, the new Google now page will appear in apps like Nova and action launcher.
I'm *loving* this so far. Thanks to you and the devs that have worked on each stage of this.
I'm doing:
Verizon Stock
No UI Mods
No Ad Blocking
Pixel Animation
"PlayStore" Edition (not BS free, not manual)
Flashing GApps
Flashing Emoji
My only issue is like you described with the camera. It was working initially and then it updated and the update is causing problems. Also, the double home button launch doesn't work without a 3rd party app (and with screen off with no root).
So I can either figure out a way to always ignore camera app update and use a 3rd party app for launch (screen on only)
or
Will the S8 camera option include the gallery app and not be cleared by the "PlayStore" option?

I believe so, however I don't know, this would be a better question to ask in the ROM's Thread. the link is in the OP
It says you flashed open gapps, does it just re write over existing gapps with no problems
Disclaimer: I am not an android developer, neither do I possess any of the software mentioned in this guide. Thanks must be given to the developers in their own threads. I am just a ‘tester’ if there is such a thing.
What this guide provides:
Update Vince to smoothest android 10.
Tweak in-call volume.
Tweak sound quality.
Get the best performance.
Longer battery life.
Xiaomi has abandoned Vince after the miui-11 update, which was worse than expected. Fortunately, the hardware of Vince is great and it can be revived if you want; just follow me.
I guess you already unlocked the bootloader (if you haven't, it's quite easy just google it) and flashed some custom rom, OrangesFox is great.
What do we need?
Custom recovery: OrangeFox is the best for Miui devices.
Custom rom: ionOS, from here, is great and smooth. I recommend ionOS with GApps version 2.7a.
Custom kernel: it is just an update of the kernel used in ionOS (dark ages último).
Magisk: I recommend latest magisk 21.4.
NFS Injector module from here.
Update to android 10:
reboot to recovery.
backup system, data, and vendor ‘optional’.
wipe everything except external sd.
reboot recovery.
flash ionOS, reboot to system (don't flash magisk), and set up your phone.
after finishing the setup, reboot into recovery again.
now flash Dark-Ages-último.
wipe cache and Dalvik.
reboot to system.
Root:
reboot into recovery.
flash latest magisk
wipe caches then reboot system
Tweak Speaker Sound:
Android 10 custom roms, usually, provide a bad sound quality experience. Following tweaks makes sound volume higher and quality better:
select modules tab in magisk manager.
find and install busybox for android NDK module.
find and install Ainur audio mod.
install audio compatibility batch mod
install audio modification library.
reboot the device
install latest viper4android fx from apkmirror, open the app, provide root privilege and wait for drivers to install.
after your device reboots, open viper4android, in settings select legacy mode.
That's it! now use V4A options and equalizer to optimize the sounds as you like.
Tweak ear speaker volume during calls:
Download any root explorer, like solid explorer or root explorer.
open root explorer app ➩ select root tab ➩ and provide root permission.
navigate to vendor ➩ etc ➩ swipe down to (mixers_paths.xml) and open it with a text editor.
search for RX1 Digital Volume, in the 2 results change Volume= “84” to a higher value (94 is high enough)
save and reboot the phone.
Tweak power and performance:
in magisk manager, select the modules tab.
select install from storage.
select NFS Injector mod.
wait for the installation to finish.
reboot device.
Now everything is working great
Is there green tint issue in whatsapp camera present in that rom?
