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.

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.
Hey, so I have the Canadian A5 2017 and have not received the Oreo update yet, once Its available for my phone i was planning on switching over to a custom Rom running Oreo 8.1 (can't yet since there's no oreo modem/boot loader available for my phone as far as I know). Just curious if it would be easier to root my phone now while it's on nougat and then install a custom Oreo Rom myself once the modem/bootloader are available?, or should I wait until I receive the Oreo OTA update and then root it after? Believe I read that there s a new boot loader lock of some sort that was introduced in the new new oreo that makes it a bit of a pain to unlock the boot loader. Also my phone is completely stock
Thanks for your help
Rooting on oreo is just a bit more difficult than nougat because of the rmm state, but there're a lot of way to bypass it easily. If you're on N just root without OTA updating oreo, but I don't know how many custom roms running stable oreo 8.1 exist. I had LineageOS 15.1 unofficial for A5 2017, great features but too buggy. Just look for something more stable
Obviously to flash a custom rom you need a custom recovery, but I think you knew it yet
I am with the idea of changing the rom of my G9600 to a GSI or another rom, but from what I have seen in the GSI you have to have the same security patch between the vendor and the rom, that is where the problem I have lies the February update and I already have the phone with twrp and majisk and the klavit kernel, I mean it doesn't update from the OTA.
How do I update the stock rom?
And which rom do you recommend me to change, in my other phones I always used roms with a great margin of customization like the Resurrection Remix.
Thanks all.
if you're not receiving the latest software update, then just manually download the rom from SamMobiles or Frija and flash it through download mode by using Odin.
Try finding in the Snapdragon section, since I'm on 960f which is Exynoss version.
I'm using EvolutionX rom which have lot of customization, I believe there's one for the Snapdragon but it's been discontinued
Hi all! As I mention it, I just bought this cellphone completely new (it is the one that best suited my budget in my country) I had a Lenovo a6020 so I'm not so lost in the custom roms and modifications. How I said the is new so it has android 7, I already unlocked the boot and I have twrp in the latest version but I don't know if from android 7 (miui) I can jump directly to PE + 10. I have read but can't find if you need a previous version. Taking advantage of the theme and I hope it does not break the rules I will like to know if this rom (pixel expierence) incorporates a version of gcam, If not, which version do you recommend, or is the official camera better? Thank you all! Excuse my lousy English, I'm still learning

See firmware xda thread from link below to update to latest firmware and flash firmware when you flash your rom in custom recovery.

Hello, I have LineageOS Android loaded - exactly this build > LineageOS h815-userdebug 11 RQ3A.211001.001eng.jenkin.20220811.162238 dev-keys
On LG G4 H815.
Can I get help and guidance on what to do?
I need to know if it is possible to update Bootloader and Modem to a newer version? Please tell me if flashing via Recovery TWRP - via Zip archive - LineageOS Android - I also update Bootloader partition and Modem partition? At the moment I need LineageOS Android 18.1 to turn on my Google Chrome browser. I confirm that I flashed the Google Gapps - Full Zip package - the one that takes the most time.
I am addressing you with a very sincere request. Because I need the latest Google Play Store. I am in a difficult financial situation. I am a victim of domestic violence, I am devastated due to lack of nutrition. Because the Biological Father doesn't love me. When I was a little boy, my father used to beat me, additionally he yelled at me when I wanted to get a job in my life, he attacked me that I would hang myself in life. This is not what a healthy adult does. I am grateful to the Xda Forum community that I can write my request for help, for support for my device LG G4 H815.
Is Custom Rom - Android a good choice - if it's LineageOS, does it still receive support for LineageOS 18.1 via the official LineageOS update channel
First of all, I want to have the lightest possible Custom Rom - I'm not sure about LineageOS 18.1, so I decided to leave a request for help. I need to choose a Custom Rom - one to have the option of having the latest Google Play Store in the first place - because I'm on Social Security - at the moment I'm not working, I can't give up in life. He fights every day to regain his health. Please write me help. I need help. One man wanted to send me a transfer - I mean withdraw money to a BlockChain account but this LG G4 H815 phone - had Android 6.0 MarshMallow and I confirm that for MarshMallow I don't have updates when it comes to BlockChain applications. So the account we tried to create failed and I couldn't activate the account.
I don't professionally know Custom Android Rom for G4 H815. That's why I come to ask you for help. How to do it to have the lightest Custom Rom, with the ability to have an increase in Rom and Ram memory. My question is, for Android Nougat 8.0 can I have the lightest Custom Rom - available for G4 H815?
I think LineageOS Android 18.1 / Android 11. It's a bit heavy in operation for the G4 H815/ Especially without adding extra Ram. and adding Rom memory.
Please help and support. Needs Online Help.
I am asking you to send me information which Custom Rom is the most stable. I inform you that I have a problem with the fact that when I try to launch Google Play - My G4 H815 on LineageOS 18.1 resets. Same thing when I try to launch google chrome. I kindly ask for help. xzenx1234x
