Custom Rom central: Collections, guides, news, discussion, etc. - LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion

Hello everyone, seeing as our beloved V30 has caught the interest of many awesome Rom builder, i want to open this thread as a place to guide the newcomer for the process of switching from stock rom to AOSP.
This thread will include three parts, first is the basic knowledge on model of V30, second is the list of current AOSP rom and kernel and finally is the list of the mod available for AOSP
Ok, let us start

As you may know, V30 has many model including:
V300K/S/L: Korean variant of V30, fastest update from LG, bootloader unlockable
US998, VS996,AS998, H931, H932SV (T-mobile), LS998: US variant, can be bootloader unlocked
H930: EU/International variation, bootloader unlockable
H930DS: dual sim version of V30, bootloader unlockable
H933: Canada variant, can be bootloader unlocked
H932PR for Puerto Rico: can be bootloader unlocked and rooted via WTF method.
V30S,S+: variant of any listed above model, all step is the same
How to check your phone model? --> Go to setting/about phone. Or
SGCMarkus said:
Without root (not all V30, even same models, have this though, idk why, i know people with an LS998, one has is, the other hasnt)
in a terminal app or adb shell:
getprop ro.boot.suffix
with root:
cat /proc/cmdline
and check the model.name= ... parameter in that long list

Also, of notes, H930, US998, LS998, VS996, AS998, V300S is known to work flawlessly on AOSP, other model may have AOSP works but with some signal issue (H933 fix here) ​
The first step of installing a custom rom is to unlock bootloader and install twrp.
For US variant, Canadian variant except H932 (T-mobile) , the guide to unlock bootloader and install TWRP can be found at WTF method thread
For Korean variant, unlock method can be found here
For H932 variant, unlock method is found here at the LAFploit thread
Also, check out the awesome TWRP provided by @seadersn here
After getting TWRP to install you are now ready to installed any AOSP rom
Note:
All AOSP Pie rom have a working DAC and EAS kernel thanks to the great effort of @SGCMarkus
[*]All AOSP rom are unofficial
[*]All AOSP are name as H930 but will work on all unlockable variant, except H932SV (T-mobile) (AOSP rom for H932SV (T-mobile) will have the H932 in name)
[*]All AOSP have the same bug: Always on display working at random, no VOLTE, low volume on speaker, video call on some app not working
[*]You will need to be on any stock firmware without DTS (US998e or earlier) to have sound on all AOSP rom

Special thanks to everyone on telegram group for encouraging me to make this thread

There's also an H932PR for Puerto Rico, which is totally different from the U.S. T-mobile H932(SV). It can be cross flashed to US998, bootloader unlocked and rooted via WTF method. It has the same RSA encryption as the North American variants. However you must be SURE that's what you have or you will brick your phone trying to use the WTF method if you happen to NOT have H932PR but instead have the U.S. T-mobile H932.
U.S. T-mobile H932 official name is H932SV -- but yes, we tend to call it just H932. The only time it matters is for people who might run across this H932PR. Before anyone asks, NO the H932PR does NOT have the U.S. T-mobile LTE band 71.
poncespr said:
Ok. I know I am in the minority here, but just in case anyone else has an H932PR or if this can help in any other way, I decided to just pull the trigger and flashed US998 Oreo via LGUP with DL Partition.
After getting boot loops I followed @ChazzMatt instructions to perform a full reset and am happy to report that everything is ok. No IMEI issues, no radio or signal problems so far.
So, crossflash from H932PR to US998 works.
Cheers!

1) what are you so angry about?
2) You look silly quoting ME in your rant. Nothing you said in your post made any sense, especially when REPLYING TO ME -- as it had nothing to do with my post pointing out the differences between the H932SV and H932PR V30 variants. So, please keep me out of your argument with @Mrxyzl.
It makes me think you don't know how to even post in a forum?
Plus, you an Android ROM developer asking what is "AOSP"? (Maybe "LOL" means you're joking, but I don't understand anything in your post to begin with.)
Maybe you also need to learn how to update your ROM ops when you post ROM updates? Or list where to find the custom kernels for your ROM, which you say is necessary? Or tell clearly whether your ROMs already had GAPPs or not? (Same post -- you say it already has GAPPs, but it doesn't. ) A lot of people LOVED your ROMs, but you either post misinformation in your op or don't update the information. Lots of people could not find necessary information in your ROM ops, when a few sentences in your op post -- or updating your op post -- would help them tremendously.
PLEASE consider that moving forward?
If you're angry at ME for pointing that out months ago... you can always reply to me there in that thread -- after you update your op.

[TOOL] WinDroid Toolkit | Unlock | Root | Flash | Install | Moto Maxx

ChazzMatt said:
This toolkit is for 3 of the 4 Moto Quarks: "international" XT1225 Moto Turbo/XT1225 Moto Maxx (both are actually the same device -- just different model name for different part of the world) and the U.S. Moto Maxx XT1250 sold by smaller regional CDMA/LTE carriers (and is actually the same CDMA/LTE device as the XT1254 Droid Turbo -- EXACT same FCC ID but has unlock-able bootloader).
This toolkit does NOT work on the Droid Turbo XT1254 which has a bootloader that can not be unlocked. Currently the only way to root an XT1254 is to start with Kitkat 4.4.4 and use paid Mofo root. Then you can flash rooted Lollipop images from the development section.

Does this toolkit flash a newer version of TWRP than you posted? I remember a dev @Skrilax_CZ saying our current version of TWRP needed updating to 2.8.5 (from 2.8.1) to make compatible with cm12.
_______
EDIT: The answer is no, it doesn't. I flashed twice and it's still the 2.8.1.0 I had on the phone before.
But I still donated to the dev as it's a good toolkit.

Thanks for your donation! Do you have a link to the 2.8.5 build? If a device isn't officially supported, I spend a good amount of time searching XDA for the latest unofficial build, and the only TWRP build I found for the Maxx was here, which is the 2.8.1 build.

Which is the TWRP recovery @respider built for us. If he hadn't, we would not even have that. So, I thank him again for that. :good: I think he's in the process of updating it?
I just wasn't sure where your toolkit pullled TWRP from. Now, I know. When there's a newer TWRP version available for our phone, we just inform you?

I upload the recoveries to my own cloud server here so I can have more fine control in case there's issues with certain devices, recoveries, etc. You can see each device and when it was updated here. I generally update the recovery for each device when I update the toolkit itself, but you can let me know of an update anytime and I'll upload it. :good:

Yes, @Skrilax_CZ does not use TWRP on his Moto Maxx efforts for CM12, because the TWRP we have is not yet compatible.

Guys I tried recompiling TWRP with newer sources and it just didnt work out of the box, I need to make ajustments and I don't feel that motivated yet, since I see lots of places using my work* without giving any kind of credits which is the least one can do.
*although I didnt do the developing work, configuring, compiling and testing takes a chunk of my time
Just remembering TWRP is open source so if anyone feels like, just do it yourselves. :good:

Respider,
I thank you for your efforts and time on the TWRP. Without you, we would have nothing. I don't see a donate link, so forgive me if I overlooked it.
I'll be in Sao Paulo area this July for two weeks -- Liberdade district and also a city just northwest of Sao Paulo, Itatiba. My wife is Brazilian. Probably won't get a chance to meet, but I'll be thinking of you!
If you do get a chance to look at TWRP again in the future, it would be great. :good:

Respider, I don't know much about programing, but I got time to spend on this, so could you point me somewhere with a tutorial to make things like that?
And thanks for your effort, dude. Means a lot. I'm trying (without success) to sell my Moto Maxx cause this phone don't have community support, which is very important to me. I do law school, so I know nothing about programing, but if I can do something to change this scenario I would be happy to help.

Doesn't look like anyone answered your question. So the answer is NO. It does not support the Droid Turbo. He even said "sorry" to Turbo users in the first sentence.
Why is this in the Droid Turbo section of XDA when its not for the Turbo. I am aware of the OP's mention that its not for the Turbo but was really excited to see the posts in the Turbo Threads. Shouldnt the Maxx have its own? Could cause confusion for noobs or people who do not read directions thoroughly.

Your question has been answered several times already. You just aren't paying attention. You also quoted the entire OP, which is silly.
The "Latin America" XT1225 Moto Maxx, "U.S." XT1250 Moto Maxx, "U.S". XT1254 Droid Turbo, and "India" XT1225 Moto Turbo are all Quark phones with identical hardware. The CDMA XT1250 Moto Maxx and CDMA XT1254 Droid Turbo are IDENTICAL phones with the same FCC ID, both sold in the USA by U.S. carriers. (It was a LIE that Verizon had any "exclusivity" on this phone. The name was exclusive, not the phone.) The XT1250 has a bootloader than can be unlocked and rooted, and it will work on Verizon's network if you stick in a Verizon SIM card.
So, that's why it's here. If the Droid Turbo ever gets unlockable bootloader and root like all the other Quark phones, it can use this tool also. Until then all the other Quark phones can use it.
All the Quark phones are here. Perhaps the forum should be re-named. Perhaps the "Development" sections should have separate sub-forums -- especially since the Droid can't be "developed" right now, but the "General" and "Accessories" are all identical because they are identical hardware. I'm using a Verizon Droid Turbo Tech21 case for my ballistic nylon + Kevlar Moto Maxx. But that's not our decision. There are appropriate places on XDA to request this or discuss how forums are organized or named.
]
[/COLOR]I guess I should have been more specific to the droid turbo section and droid maxx having there own sections of XDA like other phones with same hardware but different service provider. They might be same phones but I could see unnecessary time wasted trying to figure out why droid maxx is under droid turbo when the section is labeled droid turbo.

[ZIP] H930 to H932 ROM converter

On request, to easier find this, im creating this thread
For all the H932 users out there, who also want to use ROMs that dont provide support for it, but only for the H930, heres a little zip for you, which will allow you to fully use H930 ROMs on your H932.
What this zip does:
Replaces the necessary firmware files (list here (H930 tree, because the H932s list is somehow empty... gotta fix that later)) which are the only (important) difference.
This wont change the device fingerprint from H930 to H932 (maybe in a later version, who knows)
This is also ONLY intented for AOSP ROMs (LOS, RR, whatever else we have), do NOT use this on Stock based ROMs
How to use it:
1) Flash H930 ROM on your H932
2) Flash this zip
3) boot the system
This is NOT for H930/US998/and so on users!

Thanks! Just added to the Root Sticky post.
Suggestion: all the ROM devs should add prominent link to this thread to their OP (post #1) of their ROM threads. It would only increase their ROM usage, as T-mobile H932 users think they don't have many choices!

This is ONLY for AOSP/Lineage custom ROMs, so T-Mobile H932 can boot them. Is the op not clear?
Post #2 screenshot is pretty clear.
Thanks for yours hard work. Have more choices to choose now..,?
Has anyone used on LiquidRemix rom for H930 and installed the rom on Tmo H932? Thanks.
thank you for thread (and link to thread) as it clears alot of confusion.
im still weary of using ROMs that werent "built" with h932 foundation for a number of reasons, but may give a few of the AOSP ROMs a shot if i cant find a decent debloated stock.

Well, you need to ask in relevant threads. Or start a new thread in the Questions section. I see you finally posted in Frankenstein, which is helpful for what you need. I answered your question there.
In forums like this, people don't want irrelevant questions clogging their threads. This is a thread for T-Mobile H932 only and they couldn't care less about AS998.

Can you clarify what you mean with this? I used RR and this converter and wifi worked fine. Similarly I've used for a long time the Lineage specific H932 build and I also get wifi. However in my region (Norway) I get an "x" on the LTE, HSPDA, 3G (any bands really) signal bars that comes and goes. Sometimes data works - especially when connected to a VPN, but I've had no issue in any other country, just this one and I wonder if the 2 are related. Or am I clutching at straws? I had to give up on my H932 and go back to my old iphone (bluurgh) because I don't know what the issue is and I can't be working with unreliable data.

This literally does the same (relevant) changes to the ROM as when you would build H932 ROMs (the only difference are the few firmware files and the device fingerprint (unimportant))... so whatever issue you have, its not related to this

I honestly couldnt explain it any further than what I did
HOWEVER.
I decided to flash the LP ROM again, then the H930 to H932 converter, flash Magisk, and THEN the 20s Modem from a another topic and all my WiFi issues were cleared up.
so yes, in my particular case, I had to flash the ROM, and then the Modem in order to get Wi-Fi to work
Updated with the pie blobs from H932 30d. Zip is attached in the OP.
Does the same as for oreo, just with pie blobs and their location, so you shouldnt have any issues.

T-mobile LG V30 ThinQ gets Android 9.0 Pie Update

https://www.mylgphones.com/t-mobile-lg-v30-thinq-gets-android-9-0-pie-update.html
I have a LgV30 with 7.1.2, t mobile.
wanna upgrade to 9.0.
Nothing I do makes my mac or my pc recognize my phone. I've used Lg bridge & Lg pc suite.
Sometimes android file transfer works, but that's not for upgrading OS.
Somebody mentioned upgrading OS from google drive?
How would I do that?
Any suggesions appreciated.
I'm about to give up & buy the LgV40,
cuz all I really want is color management
so my edited pix look the same across devices.
Thanks.

Nothing I do makes my mac or my pc recognize my phone. I've used Lg bridge & Lg pc suite.
Sometimes android file transfer works, but that's not for upgrading OS.
Somebody mentioned upgrading OS from google drive?
How would I do that?
Any suggesions appreciated.
I'm about to give up & buy the LgV40,
cuz all I really want is color management
so my edited pix look the same across devices.
Thanks.

You would not be using LG Bridge or LG PC Suite. You need to read post #2. Right there at the beginning of the thread! Post #2.
Go to the KDZ thread link and install using Dev Patched LGUP.

Just to make sure: Your phone is model H932 (T-Mobile version of V30). Right?
This thread is for H932, and you do say you're "with" T-Mobile, so I assume that's what you have. I only ask because H932 normally works with LG Bridge. And if you use the KDZ thread mentioned in post #2 with ANY other V30 model, you will brick your phone.
So just making sure

Good point!
@ericLindellNYC, don't care if you have an LG "V30". There's a few V30 that will work on T-mobile. But do you have a T-mobile H932? If you don't, then tell us what you do have, and we can tell you how to update THAT to Pie.
If you do have a T-mobile H932, then my previous answer will tell you all you need, when you go to the KDZ thread for the T-mobile H932.

It's now available OTA from T-Mobile

We know.
But OTA is partial image update -- dependent on your carrier and if your phone acts right.
KDZ is full image, which will always be superior. You can control exactly when and how you flash -- Upgrade (like a manual OTA, keeping data if full stock) , Refurbish, Partition DL.
Most of us on XDA have unlocked bootloaders and TWRP custom recovery. So, we want total control over how to flash updates. But even if I was full stock (which my spare V30+ is), I still flash full image KDZ via Dev Patched LGUP.
If something goes wrong, I can fix it right then.
I have full stock LG-H932. Should I just download OTA?

Just double checking to verify. This update is still arb0?
I recently went back to 100% stock and don't plan to root again for at least a little while. So, I want to make double double sure that after installing this update we can still roll back and root or whatever we want to do.
All other pies were ARB00; not sure bout T-Mobile

I was skeptical that it would be ARB0, but the filename says 00, so I guess it really is: H93230d_00_0902.KDZ.
I haven't installed it myself, but I trust it. All the other LG Pies worldwide have been ARB0.
I'm stock too, waiting for LG to hopefully approve a warranty claim on my touchscreen. And I was concerned that an ARB1 update might arrive before, since they always send phones back with the latest update after repair or replacement.
... I just got the Pie update, AND once again no Project Treble. There is already Project Mainline coming to devices, and LG couldn't even manage to get that done after about a year waiting for Pie. Not sure what the G stands for in LG, but I hope it isn't for greatness.
Yeah, i got the update too, now i'm in Algeria but i have a network locked phone but i still get the update, but how do i unlock that phone ! i didn't find a solution, even paid one ! any help ?

There never will be Treble for "Joan" V30/30+/V30S. Even when some V30 next year get LG stock Android 10. So not sure why you are even mentioning Treble.
It's been explained over and over, yet for some reason people keep expecting Treble? Don't know why. Either you're new or not been paying attention. . Was thoroughly discussed last year when Oreo update came...
V30 series launched bwith Nougat, in 2017. There's no requirement for Treble except for Android devices that LAUNCHED with Oreo.
Trying to send any updates that not only update OS but also create some new Treble partition across ALL the many variants and carriers worldwide would be a disaster waiting to happen. And would take even LONGER to roll out Pie.

Yep, so it seems. It would be nice if LG can make it possible as an option using say LG Bridge with instructions that would backup the entire partition so that nothing would be lost after the re-partitioning.
Has anybody been successful creating a vendor partition for H932 using the SGCMarkus guide: How to repartition for vendor and how to use GSIs?

Sorry, there's no easy solution. You had to find the guy online who can spoof a m another T-Mobile model number and I think you have to downgrade to Nouga5 for it to work. He went by TMobile killer or something like that and it cost money.
Instructions were posted but removed by mods because obstensibly it was advertising for a commercial service.
Do NOT fall for scammers who claim they can give you a "code" that will carrier unlock/SIM card unlock T-Mobile H932. Simple code will NOT work.
Basically the only people who should buy T-Mobile phones are T-Mobile customers....

Yes, many people tried that.
But now that we have tons of regular ROMs with everything working except for stock camera and VoLTE most people just use those.
Or run rooted stock firmware with Magisk and edXposed modules.

Others (but not all) have reported those lags on Pie.
You could try this weird fix shared by @thefpspower: Simply make a backup in LG Bridge. You don't have to restore it, just make the backup. Some app permissions/settings may have to be redone afterwards.
If that doesn't work, I suggest a Master Reset. NOT just a Factory Reset, but the button dance.

Wait, so you can swap the motherboard for a different version that can be rooted and just like that you have a new version?

Hello my friends, we want to participate in the largest number of members to support oneplos 7T ( hotdogb ) For his support of Rom havos os
As you know, support stopped at the beginning of the year and we want support for this Rom .

The dev of those old builds doesn't have the device. He was blind building and decided not to continue. So I don't think this will happen unless you know someone willing to maintain for the device.
I support too. I miss using Havoc OS after shifting from OP6 to OP7T.

There is no need of recovery to have roms developed for this device. There are already two fully functional roms MSM Xtended and RR available and being used.
The issue anyway I believe is a lot of developers choose to go with Pro series like 7Tpro 7Pro or 8 series. So less developers results in less development.

Who wants to build when flashing is such a pita no proper functioning twrp/recovery is the main reason we have such limited development for 7t series . Also Android 10 out of the box hasn't helped. I believe the decryption issued faced in the development of twrp for 7t isn't present in op8 or the Nord. The issue is with OnePlus and how they have implemented broken decryption on the 7t but not on the op8 or Nord.

That rom was (and probably still is) just a big mess, why would you even want something like that when you have already other better options such as AOSiP?
If it will come, it will come, i don't think there's need to make a post just to let other people know you want it, that's my 2 cents

TWRP has absolutely nothing to do with lack of development.
People who owns this device simply do not have enough resources to build ROMs. The actual work is already laid out.

It's a PITA? Tell whatever rom "dev" to build correctly then.
I installed a custom rom with literally 2 commands, it was easier without TWRP if I'm being honest.
Hint; AOSiP developer knows what he is doing.
(And decryption is only a problem on OOS so unrelated to custom ROMs).
And, read my comment above.
Why not ask for lineage OS? I already heard the news of carbon rom support coming months ago. We got omni too but God knows what's happening. This device is going down to be the least active custom development in One Plus history....

Sorry you installed and fixed any possible issues locally without a pc or another device with fastboot enabled ? the fact is flashing is easier with twrp working . I wouldn't test my go to Devs build for this reason not because it would be unstable but he is not that arrogant to think his build couldn't have issues. I use my device as a daily driver and don't want to carry otg and two phones around with me in case l needs fastboot. Sorry but l disagree but respect what you mean.

>Who wants to build when flashing is such a pita no proper functioning twrp/recovery
This is what you said. I am simply correcting you that it's completely false.
I understand that TWRP is convenient in case any issues appear, however, I have been running an unofficial build for the last 5 months now (including 3 weeks where I was without PC) and never had any issues that forced to me clean flash(or any use of twrp/fastboot).
Most ROMs don't and shouldn't have any issues that cause clean/dirty flash, rather in most cases, it's a user error, which is completely unrelated on why the lack of ROM development.

Most roms shouldn't have issues most don't but sometimes when updates happen things go borked as l am sure you know. To say what l have said is completely false kind of contradicts saying twrp is convenient meaning finding a device with fastboot can be more of a pita than simply booting twrp recovery. I am sure that there are many people who have bought the op7t and are disappointed that twrp is the way it is.
Betting there put off by having to use command line to do stuff that they have done on most of there previous devices using twrp.
Some ROM /kernel developers build to share and get known others don't of course. The ones that do would be thinking what's the point of building if only 10 people are going to flash.Which in my opinion will reduce the amount of roms/kernels being developed for the op7t.

Me and a few others built everything over the last 10 months since 7t release. Mostly we all settled on something to stick with. Twrp is no issue, I agree, but people acting like there is none is kinda shortsighted. The Chinese twrp is absolutely impeccable on oos or custom.

Question Lack of development?

There has been 0 talk about any ROMs or development for the OP9 and it's been over a month since release. Does anyone know if any developers are working on one??
The OP9 and OP9 Pro don't even have unofficial or official TWRP support yet, so a custom ROM is kinda out of the question until TWRP is on the devices. OP9 Pro literally just got it's first custom kernel 2 days ago. I don't know what the time frame is for custom ROM development but a lot of it hinges on getting TWRP support for the phones.
Side note: You said OP9 in the OP9 Pro forums so I'm gonna assume you were referring to the OP9 Pro. Regardless my statement about needing TWRP support first applies to both phones.

TWRP is absolutely not necessary and will most likely never come out for later OP devices, including the 9, unless they figure out the decryption problem. See the 8's etc, plenty of dev and none of the TWRP.
Regarding dev, it's happening, but no need for discussion here until something is at least in a semi-stable beta build.

I apologize for my lack of knowledge of what happened in the OnePlus 8 scene as I didn't have that phone. I came from the 6T. But looking through the 8, 8 Pro, and 8T forums, it seems a custom recovery is still needed for custom ROMs. Only difference was the custom recovery was provided by the ROM Dev and not TWRP.
It's early in the game.... will be happening!

We don't have a TWRP build yet, I've been looking to build one but there's a problem with Android Image Kitchen which should hopefully be fixed soon, I'm guessing that's why no-one else has built a recovery. You can read more about it here.
Custom roms are kinda a non-starter without TWRP (or another custom recovery)
OnePlus has been messing up with their source for a while now too, not to mention that we're still getting regular updates to the original release which might mess with kernels too.
We might be another month before you'll start seeing enough stability to start getting custom roms.
EDIT : Looks like AIK might be working properly now, gonna have a look and see if I can get a TWRP build working, although there's no other phones with the same resolution so that might be a problem to get some resources. LG G3 has a similar resolution but not exactly the same, it's very important for the touchscreen setup for TWRP or else the buttons on screen won't be where you're actually tapping.

To add to what @craznazn said, a custom recovery isn't 100% necessary for custom ROMs. The 7T didn't require it to flash any, as a fastboot method is doable. Developing them is another story, though. Some custom ROMs were based on OOS, while AOSP ones still had some bases from OOS (YAAP, for example, was a Pixel-themed ROM but required you to have OOS11, in some shape or form, installed prior to flashing it because it needed vendor files and so on.

OP9P: 1440x3216
SGS20/SGS20+: 1440x3200
And they already have an unofficial twrp build too.
SGS20/SGS20+ TWRP:
[RECOVERY][UNOFFICIAL] TWRP for Galaxy S20 Series (Snapdragon)
Team Win Recovery Project 3.x, or twrp3 for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. Its a fully touch driven user interface no more volume rocker or power buttons to mash. The GUI is also fully XML driven and...

Sorry to say. But portions are what we are talking about. Resolution has no bearing on getting TWRP working. Ex op7tpro

Portions...? As in dimensions? It is true the screens are different sizes, as well.
In regards to OP's post that there's been 0 development talk, well, not exactly zero, as unlocking and rooting, as well as conversion from T-Mobile to global, enabling dual-SIM, and the MSM and QPST tools needed for such, have been ongoing for some time. There's no custom ROMs, sure, and I get that a custom kernel was just released, but a massive part of development is simply discussion, throwing around ideas, research, testing, etc. It also helps if more devs happen to purchase our particular device (and thankfully this is something we won't have to worry about for long). It's worse when a device gets little to no development because it simply isn't popular enough to warrant much development. I do get the sentiment that it's been a while, but I guess we'll just have to be patient.

Partitions sorry typo. Also they just released kernel sources not very long ago. In order to build you need these. The dev here had this up and running on his device for a while, but just like ROM devs the first two or three bases they make are not for public and take a long time to work out bugs. Secondly twrp is not required to flash a custom ROM did it via fastboot on my op7tpro. Development is up to owners. You have an unlocked bootloader and kernel sources. If everyone is *****in about development start developing. Download a Linux distro or wubi and and build one for the community. Everyone *****es and doesn't contribute.

Ahhh. That makes more sense now.

The OP9 and OP9 Pro don't even have unofficial or official TWRP support yet, so a custom ROM is kinda out of the question until TWRP is on the devices. OP9 Pro literally just got it's first custom kernel 2 days ago. I don't know what the time frame is for custom ROM development but a lot of it hinges on getting TWRP support for the phones.
Side note: You said OP9 in the OP9 Pro forums so I'm gonna assume you were referring to the OP9 Pro. Regardless my statement about needing TWRP support first applies to both phones.

Op8 doesn't even have a working twrp for A11 yet. So that's not it at all. Twrp does nothing for our devices as far as roms or kernels. You flash a kernel through a kernel manager and All the roms flash through fastboot & fastbootd. That's def not it. But it will however take time. We need msm tools prior to messing with things anyway. Or we will all be in a brick like state. And a main dev for aospa which is Paranoid Android has a 9 . That will be soon I'm guessing.
