Hi guys, I have been looking around and reading most of the Moto Z Play forum.
I decided to flash custom ROM on my brand new Moto Z Play XT1635-02 which I bought last month.
I'm running Stock Android 8.0 OREO w/ June security patch.
Build OPNS27.76-12-22-3)
Bootloader version: C1.82
Is there any custom OREO ROM that supports motomods (JBL soundboost or etc...) and also has good battery life (SOT)?
Thanks. :highfive:
Note: Before anyone ask me to search the forum I have searched, but i want hear other's opinion of the varieties of ROM out there.

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.
After scattering through a tonne of content on the internet and flashing multiple ROMs on my moto z2 play, I found AOSP extended GSI of android PIE and I am using it right now as my daily driver. It works 9/10 Anyone can daily drive it as long as you are not concerned about passing SafetyNet. However, while I was digging for some ROM that would officially support my z2 play(albus), I noticed one thing that Motorola Moto G5 Plus has a lot of support amongst custom roms. I may be missing some points cause I haven't been into flashing roms since some years now and I recently came back to the whole scene but is there a way that I can run a Custom rom (like Evolution X) on my albus using the build meant for Motorola Moto G5 Plus? Both of these phones have extremely similar specs and dimensions. z2 play was launched on 2017 June and Motorola Moto G5 Plus was launched on 2017 Feb.

According to this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/z2-play/how-to/updated-guide-project-treble-gsi-t4063193
you can flash ANY GSI into the Z2 Play as long as they met these requirements:
1. Rom arch is arm64
2. Rom partition scheme is aonly
Most custom roms do not specify which partition scheme uses, in this post https://forum.xda-developers.com/z2...droid-q-gsi-moto-z2-play-albus-t4066945/page2 the user @saibharath1319 mentions he succesfully installed Pixel Experience Plus Android 10 GSI with KVT 2.4 "without any major issues besides ambient display not working.

What he is asking and what your telling mate?? even i was searching for the same question moto g5 plus has tremendous support and both the devices are totally identical ? can someone give it a try?
Bro do you even read? The short answer is no, you can't simply flash sanders ROMs or any other, to albus. Unless they are GSI's.
If you don't have any idea what I'm talking about. Then google it.
If you are coming from Stock Pie Update make sure you use the modem file (non-HLOS.bin) from Stock Oreo because the modem from Stock Pie has audio issues with custom ROMs.
Hello, i'm Nahuel and i'm new here. I don't speak English good, i'm from Argentina. I wanted to ask you if there is any custom moto g5 cedric rom that is better than the stock oreo rom. I was looking for stability and good performance. I listen to recommendations because I don't know many. Thanks

If you want stability stick with stock oero rom
All the 64 bit roms based on android version above oreo have issues with the camera
If that doesn't bother you try them

Hi,
I'm a beginner to installing custom ROMs so forgive me if I'm asking dumb questions.
I'm thinking of buying a used G7 play and would like to install a custom ROM on it. It is the XT1952-1 version and I can't seem to find much information on running custom ROMs on it. The LineageOS page only lists XT1952-2 and -3 as supported models.
Is there a stable custom ROM I could use on this device as a daily driver where everything is working (including VoLTE and fingerprint sensor) and I will get security updates?
Thanks a lot in advance,
Tobias
I am also interested, because I have got an XT1952-1 phone which gets no system updates anymore. :/
I've got an XT1952-3 (US version) with Lineage 18.1 and it's fully stable, way smoother than with the stock firmware. It still receives system updates, despite the Motorola security updates are stuck at some mid-2021 version.
