[Q] Custom Roms for MOTO G? - G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone have any recommendations for custom roms on the Moto G? I have my Moto G rooted, so I'm investigating next steps.
I'm looking for something that provides increased security. Do any of the custom roms help with this? Or, are the custom roms more aimed at GUI customization? I really don't care if the icon is more fancy or a blue color. I really want something that gives me functional improvement.
thanks,
John

There are no real usable Custom ROMs yet, just a few that were put together but don't boot most of the time.

Please try reading a bit more. The same question is just 2 posts below yours and you would have got the answer for your 2nd question about ROM recommendation in that thread itself.

I did read that thread. That post is about 2nd Gen moto G's. Not xt 1032's. Even reading that thread does not give an answer like you suggest it does.
I've found an article on the internet that says there are 5 roms available for gen 1 moto g's and it gives a brief description of each, but as a new member, I was not able to post the link to it. Says I have to post 10 messages first before I am able to post links. However, the article does not give the pros and cons of each rom.

ps.
You may want to rename this forum Gen2 or XT106x.
I purchased my Gen1 in 2014. Wasn't aware that's what folks are calling Gen2.

Yup, you are right but don't know who can change it. I think admin can change that

I see custom Roms have started to appear, but it seems they are mostly for 1068 dual Sim, no love for 1064? How hard is it to port between these 2 models?

Haven't made it quite that far yet mate. However, if/when I happen upon something older during my perusing of other sections, I'll shoot you a link.
One ridiculous argument cleaned up.

x911 exclusive droid X rom

Hello everyone. Well I have some free time now and have decided to make a rom exclusively for the X. It will be called x911. After testing out a few and not finding exactly what I like, I decided to start this project. So If anyone is interested in testing a beta, giving some input/requests on certain features etc, let me know. Updates and news about dev will be on "thevideomole" .com - can't direct link sorry. Just sign up for an account and follow my wall if your interested in participating, or just want to know about the rom, release date etc. Thanks.
James LaBarr
I'll test for you, no problem.
never mind. I was going to say something. but never mind.

Thanks for the heads up at OP
Great, like I said, I have posted this in a few droid x forums, and handling this in all forums would suck, so It wall all be handled at thevideomole.com - just join the droid x lovers group, all updates will go thru there, and thanks everyone, im glad people are interested in this.

Well who am I is kind of a weird question. Who are you? Anyway I made a crude boot animation for my x911 AOSP Froyo Rom, needs much polishing but the concept is there. Video is on the site previously posted. This weekend that should begin and I can begin coding.
I think he was trying to ask about your experience with android coding

I don't think that a person asking about your background or experience is kind of a weird question. To be honest I normally close threads like this because its been my experience that ROMS are never produced. Perhaps you if you are soliciting feedback you may post a beta or test ROM you are working. Guys in this forum are used to a lot of fake posts.

Exactly...I didn't mean who are you on a personal level, I meant it as, who are you as it pertains to the Android Community. I write articles and news that's Android related, and have been around for a long time in the forums, but I have never heard of you or your brand of ROMs. So I meant who are you as a Developer or Chef, because maybe you are an experienced Dev and I just don't know of you. But also you could be that kid jdkclipse from the incredible and other forums...some might know that drama.
Either way though, if u have a ROM, just post it and a screenshot and a detailed changelog/info on it, no need to open a thread until you have that.
Cheers!
i would love to test. I'm also feelign the same way you are on roms. I wanna build my own too but not much help for the Droid x. We may can collaborate to make a pretty good rom

Not worth reporting, threads of this type are unnecessary anyway, not sure why op copied that thread(they left the [/QUOTE] at the end lol), its not a lot of words to write yourself.
I don't think LG will update this phone anymore, maybe just one more but nothing major like to 4.3 or anything. Do we really need this thread?

So far the thread is going pretty well! But I must admit, that is an amateur mistake! - Next time, change the hyper links. then none of this would have happened! :good:
"The purpose of this thread is to provide a singular location to talk about all updates for all regions. There is no need to create a new thread for every update for every region. Just discuss it here in this thread"
You can't discuss all updates in one place, you need to maintain some order. It's not convenient if one person talks about v10A, other about v10H and the third one talks about v20A, and all that in one thread on the same page. Subthreads are necessary in these situations. You can make a general thread about this phone where you can discuss about different visual themes or such less-relevant things, but official updates/ROMs/kernels need to be subthreaded because it's easier to find specific information you're looking for. After all, that's the true purpose of threads and subthreads, isn't it?
OP, if you realise and looked at the past, there's already a well used and discussed thread for this purpose. Of course its title can be tweaked a little.

if threads are unnecessary, might break some rules, or whatever you think might be wrong, then it is worth reporting
that's exactly the point of this button.
many people think the report button would be "holy", and you would only be allowed to press it in "worst cases". but, in fact, the opposite is the case. most mods are thankful you hitting the report button. FSM's are splitted my manufacturers, "our" FSM team has to deal with all sony(ericsson), LG and Motorola sections, so the chance for seeing something going wrong is ~0.
sorry for the heavy OT, but i just had to let it out now

HAHA!! i see. how abt "official LG rom discussion thread"? lol but the current title is good enough imo, having the contents that really counts.
Just saying....
So.... 2 pages so far and not really anything in the way of discussion regarding O4X updates.....
I tend to side with the view that LG are far more likely to concentrate future efforts on new devices rather than issue significant firmware updates to existing models; by cell phone handset standards, the O4X whilst still very capable and adaptable is already something of a dinosaur where age is concerned.
What keeps us going is the excellent work done by the devs and custom rom artists

No mention of G4 Play on Moto Mobility

I was yesterday scrambling my head cause i couldnt understand why there was no mention of G4 Play on their website. Like https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/country-selector/motog the option are
MOTO G5s Plus - (2017)
MOTO G5s - (2017)
MOTO G Plus 5th Gen. - (2017)
MOTO G 5th Gen. - (2017)
MOTO G Plus 4th Gen. - (2016)
MOTO G 4th Gen. - (2016)
MOTO G Turbo Edition
MOTO G 3rd Gen. - (2015)
MOTO G 2nd Gen. - (2014)
MOTO G - (2013)
no mention of our device.on here also https://www.motorola.in/products/smartphones. I kinda feel terrified about it. Only i found the mention of G4 Play was at Software updates page: https://motorola-mobility-en-in.custhelp.com/app/software-upgrade-news/g_id/2014/action/auth .

After a bit of google i could find their Product page, but the mistake that moto did is that it did not listed the device on the page. Its not something that i am getting paranoid about, i am just stating the facts and asking bluntly your opinion for this mistake.
P.S: Couldn't reply earlier as the thread was closed by the moderators, but he seemed to have reopened it again(thanks for this mod).

It's kind of reasonable that the mods closed this one, it presents unacurate data.
It's just 2 clicks away from the main moto page, I didn't had to google it or nothing, and sorry for the hyperbole, I wasn't trying to be rude.

Moto 'feature' device pages are often incomplete (annoying!). Really depends what gizmos/promo Lenovo is trying to push at the time. Scroll to the bottom and click on appropriate family link. Usually a better choice.

Again, that's the FEATURES list, it's never complete, and always features the latest phones, plus the ones they're pushing based on the categories and markets that they're currently targeting, going to the moto g family page there's our device. this thread is unhelpful.
