[Recovery][Exynos] Official TWRP for Galaxy S7 edge (hero2lte) - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec

Team Win Recovery Project 3.0.2-4
This is for the International SM-G935F/FD/X, Korean SM-G935K/L/S, and Canadian SM-G935W8 Exynos models only! Do not flash on flat S7 or Qualcomm models!
WARNING #1: Flashing a custom recovery to your device will trip the Knox warranty bit on your phone. Check with your mobile provider to see if they will still cover warranty on Knox bit triggered devices. If you understand this risk, continue on.
You generally don't have to worry, as it's incredibly hard to brick a Samsung device, and physical damage warranties should be exempt from Knox triggering.
WARNING #2: The Galaxy S7 stock boot image has dm-verity, which prevents you from booting if you swipe to enable system modifications!
SOLUTION: Follow the full rooting steps below, in order, to allow system modifications without the risk of a boot loop!
WHAT IS TWRP?
Oh come on, you know what it is - don't try to fool me!
In case you're serious, though...
Team Win Recovery Project is a custom recovery for Android devices.
It allows you to back up and restore your data, flash custom ROMs to your device, repair broken file systems, and root your device.
DOWNLOAD
You can find the device page here:
http://teamw.in/devices/samsunggalaxys7edge.html
There is a download link there, as well as instructions on how to flash it.
I highly recommend using Odin to flash when possible.
You can find a zip containing Odin as well as Samsung's Mobile drivers here:
https://build.nethunter.com/samsung-tools/
FULL STEPS FOR OBTAINING ROOT
You can follow this video by Max Lee if you'd like: How to Root Galaxy S7 & S7 Edge! [Exynos ONLY]
Otherwise, follow these instructions:
In your ROM, go to Settings -> About device. Tap 7 times on Build number to enable Developer options.

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Now go to Settings -> Developer options. (above About device)
You need to enable OEM unlock, otherwise you might end up with boot problems or be unable to flash later on.
Extract Odin_3.12.3.zip to your computer.
Install Samsung Mobile Phone Drivers for Odin to find your device.
Download a .tar image of TWRP for hero2lte.
Reboot your device into Download mode. To do this, select reboot from the power menu and hold the [Volume Down] + [Home] buttons while your device reboots.
Once you reach the Download mode warning screen, press [Volume Up] to continue.
Open Odin and place that TWRP tar file in the [AP] slot and disable Auto-Reboot, then press [Start].
Hold [Volume Down] + [Home] + [Power] to get out of Download mode and immediately swap to [Volume Up] when the screen blanks.
If you don't see then TWRP boot splash try again from step 6.
At this point, you will reach the screen asking you if you want to allow system modifications.
By swiping right, you will trigger dm-verity, and if you don't follow the next step you will be unable to boot!
If you are going to root your device and follow the rest of these steps, then it is safe to swipe right and enable modifications.
If you want to be rooted with SuperSU:
Download the latest SuperSU by Chainfire.
Without exiting TWRP, transfer the SuperSU zip to your device over MTP* and flash it using [Install] in TWRP.
You will need an external SDcard for this method, if you don't have one you will have to use adb sideload to install SuperSU.
If you only want a bootable system partition:
Download the latest dm-verity and force encryption disabler zip.
Without exiting TWRP, transfer the no-verity-opt-encrypt zip to your device over MTP* and flash it using [Install] in TWRP.
Note: This does not disable the forced encryption on Bxxx firmware, only Axxx firmware due to a change in vold by Samsung.
Go to [Reboot] -> [System].
Wait 2-5 minutes for your device to finish setting itself up.
* MTP, known as Media Transfer Protocol, is the same way you transfer files from your PC to your device when booted into system.

If you have a G935P, G935V, G935R, or G935A (aka the US Snapdragon models) your bootloader is locked. I will not be making TWRP for your device - it simply cannot happen. Sorry.
Update: G935T users can expect TWRP for their devices as soon as T-Mobile convinces Samsung to unlock the bootloader - I already have a fully complete working build ready.
You know who you can blame?
THE DONALD!~~~~~~~~~~~~
or Obama, I dunno, blaming Obama is getting kind of old guys, sorry.

Woohoo

I will need someone to verify if features are working as this was just a copy paste of the herolte (non-Edge) device tree.
Mainly expecting brightness slider to not work, so please if things don't work, join #twrp on freenode and talk to me.

Is this for the Snapdragon or the Exynos devices or should it work on both? And does this also apply for the kernel?

It specifically states in the title G935F, so it's for Exynos.
Can I ask if someone on a Vodafone UK handset tries this, let me know if it works and confirms an unlocked bootloader. I'd do it myself but I'm still undecided whether to keep this thing and that could decide it for me. I'd almost certainly have problems with a return if knox is tripped. Cheers!

Wooohooo. Thanks!!

I wonder if this TWRP works for all G935 variants. I do recall that TWRP worked mainly for most note 5 and S6 variants regardless of model.

This will only work for G935F (and possibly G935FD?) which are the only known Exynos variants of S7 Edge.
I will be working on the Snapdragon variants as well once their sources are released.

Forgive my ignorance. What differentiates the Exynos from the Snapdragon version as far as name? And how can I identify the Snapdragon version? I NEVER know where y'all find all these names for these devices. LOL

Actually, I think I found it. Snapdragon is the SM-G935T. Sorry for asking.

AFAIK they ate the processors. Both are totally different architectures, so this being built for one literally means it won't work on the other.
Generally I believe Exynos is international whilst snapdragon is everywhere else. I'm not sure what constitutes as international however.

Thanks, I appreciate the info. I'm aware of the different architectures, etc...Just wasn't sure how the names differentiated the two variants. But I've tracked it down and will hopefully be able to find it in the future. LOL

Do I need to root my Phone before I flash twrp? Or does twrp this? Or is there the option to root in twrp?
Sorry for dumb question just want to be sure. And I want root xD

Other way round. Flash this through odin to be able to flash a kernel in recovery which gives root access.

Simple Root for Unlocked Bootloaders (SGP311/312)

It was clear that rooting some Sony devices was not as easy as it should be. This is for unlocked bootloader users, who want to quickly root a stock ROM by flashing a rooted boot.img. It is for the POLLUX_WINDY (ie. the SGP311/312) devices ONLY.
Do not install this on the Pollux (tablet Z with LTE), or it will no longer boot - use flashtool to fix it
There may have been some in the past, but these tend to be full of other "tweaks", like hideous amateur boot logos, and stupid changes like setting ro.secure=0. That's a bad idea, it can break things, and frankly, I know from experience of myself and others that there is a need for a FAST way to root your unlocked device after flashing a new ROM, rather than messing around with downgrading and OTAs.
This will NOT work on locked bootloader, but this is not intended for them. This doesn't include 9001 different recoveries either, like some "kernels" do. This is the stock kernel, with root added, and nothing stupid added.
There is one security improvement made - ro.adb.secure has been set to 1. This is an important security feature, please don't complain about it. If you don't use ADB, you'll never see it, and it won't change anything. If you use adb, it will offer you greater security on 4.2+ stock Sony ROMs, which don't have this feature enabled. You will be prompted to accept the computer connection on the phone, just like in "AOSP" Android 4.2 and above.
The downloads are available above, in the "Downloads" tab. If you have a particular version you wish to request, simply post the kernel.sin. I have made this for only the SGP311/312 (Pollux_Windy) Tablet Z phone images right now, but will consider expanding it for other devices if there is demand and people who can test.
Enjoy simple root, without the nonsense. None of the "don't mirror my files" crap. None of the "please give me donations", none of the "omg credit me as the best person ever". Feel free to share, use, re-use, mirror, enjoy. And I think you'll find that these files are rather helpful for the unlocked bootloader root community I've been thinking about making them for months, but it seems that nobody has ever bothered to.

Correct.
But, since I feel generous, if you upload me the kernel.sin file from your LTE model, I will make a rooted boot.img for it. You can attach them to a post here if you like - just the kernel.sin. Please name them per the stock ROM version, so I can label it correctly.

Hi there, thanks for your reply. What do you mean by the kernel.sin file from my LTE model (mine is the HK version) ? I have taken a photo shot regarding my pad's rom and kernel version details for your reference as attached. If there is not the information that you need, please tell me how to get the "kernel.sin" file from my pad ! Thanks again for your kindness !

The attachment is rooted for this version. As you didn't give me the firmware version (ie. 10.A..whatever...), I won't add it to the list. Please test and let me know if it works. If this fails, just re-flash kernel using flashtool.

You just did a ro.secure in the ramdisk
Am I right?

Nope. Setting ro.secure=0 is NOT the right way to root.
The ramdisk is modified, it will detect if you have root already, and if not, it will install SuperSU and the corresponding su binary on root. I also set ro.adb.secure=1, to add extra security for the device (now you need to approve ADB connections to unrecognised computers).
If you use ro.secure=0, this will break many apps with "root detection", as well as being a horrendously ugly hack, which introduces all sorts of vulnerabilities. ro.secure should always be set to 1
I strongly advise you don't use root methods that set ro.secure=0, as well as any kernels that do it. It's much safer to not have a rooted ADB shell lying available to anything that connects to your device... Including... you know... an app running on your device that initiated an adb connection to 127.0.0.1
So yes, this gives you root without adding stupid extra security holes like many kernels and "root methods" do

Instead of going through all the trouble of unlocking the boot loader and flashing an image, use the Vroot tool instead; it works fast and and does not require unlocking the boot loader. Search this forum for information about the Vroot tool.

Yes, the post has been edited... firstly we are in a great need of Custom recovery and we will be grateful if someone does that for us.
if the recovery ( CWM/ TWRP) is made the rooting issue will be solved. Then we will move on to the Custom Rom section. But, for now we need a working custom recovery.

These are of no help as they confuse Lenovo Note K3 with our Phone...... infact, our phone is different from K3 note in many aspects.
None of these methods floating around are actually working, including all the PC rooting softwares.
Matter of fact, people giving these tutorials don't even own a real Lenovo A7000a IRL. We are the users and we are well acquainted with the Dilemma.
A custom Recovery ported by a altruistic developer can only put us out of our miseries.
+1 ji..
This phone is pretty good. I think, it Comes with unlockable bootloader / unsafe boot image. Even the source + stock firmware is already available.
If experienced developers helps us by giving any custom recovery, we will be very thankful and grateful to them as this great phone is lacking in this area only.

Here it is but. if you know chinese.
Well its final i think.
can someone test if the SDCard works.
the mounts work.
remember. you need to delete "recovery-from-boot.p" in /system
this can over write the recovery.
original recovery from
http://cellphonemic.com/lenovo-k3-note-recovery.html
i tried the original recovery image. Didn't work. so i ported. I replaced the core files and retained the ram disk and did a few edits.
Thanks to the guys who made that recovery. It seems that was originally for a K50
credits:
Kishore Dutta for the stock recovery.
The guy whoever made that original recovery
My patience, annoyance and my anger that made me do it.
Feel free to give me a thumbs up, lots of money, anything. Thank is welcome too.

UPDATE 12/3/2017 - New version of TWRP has been released v3.1.0-0. See below:
https://twrp.me/site/update/2017/03/10/twrp-3.1.0-0-released.html
I have updated versions T710/715/T810/T815 with new builds. TWRP is now v3.1.0-1
Features:
System image backup/restore
Factory image flashing.
F2FS support.
Supersu root option removed which would cause a bootloop on 5.1.1 and 6.0 devices.
MTP fix - MTP now finally working in recovery.
SEANDROID warning fix
This version also has system image backup and restore included. It is also possible to flash factory firmware images via the Image install button. (see the TWRP changelog above for more info)
I have modified the twrp source code and extended factory image partition flashing to include all images except SBOOT.bin (still working on how to flash the bootloader via recovery)
This means BOOT, SYSTEM, RECOVERY, CACHE, HIDDEN, MODEM(RADIO) can all be flashed from the factory firmware. No need for ODIN anymore.
(Note: to flash the modem it is necessary to rename MODEM.bin to MODEM.bin.img first)

FLASH WITH ODIN OR FLASHFIRE OR EXTRACT THE RECOVERY.IMG AND FLASH WITH TWRP
Note: T717T/P, T817T/P users can flash T*10 or T*15 variant respectively.
NOTE: It is important to boot to recovery after flashing with Odin or twrp may not stick and will be replaced with stock recovery.
When flashing uncheck auto reboot in Odin, immediately after flashing manually reboot and boot into twrp.
Manual reboot is POWER + HOME +VOL DOWN then as soon as the screen goes blank immediately change to VOL UP whilst still holding the other buttons.
NOTE: ON SOME ANDROID 5.1.1 and 6.01 DEVICES IT IS NECESSARY TO GO TO:
Settings -> Developer Options -> OEM unlocking
AND ENABLE OEM UNLOCK FIRST OR YOU MAY ENCOUNTER 'BLOCKED BY FRP LOCK' WHEN FLASHING.
TO ROOT:
Flash SuperSU below with TWRP.

@ashyx incredible work.. does this mean root is achievable through SuperSU flash in TWRP? Or you need a custom kernel for that like on Galaxy S6?
it works thanks

It work fine for my T710 with 5.0.2
Just noticed a minor issue with the T710 5.0.2 version. In the Reboot options pressing "Power Off" reboots back into recovery instead of turning off.

Would you mind sharing your device tree?
edit: only reason I ask is it's been a loooong time since I've compiled a recovery for an unsupported device and I'd like to get back in the loop... only my attempts at doing so are failing lol. Thanks.

I don't have a fully working device tree yet.
The device tree I initially created to compile twrp always failed to boot even though the compile process always completed successfully.
I finally managed to build a bootable version by porting some of the binaries and libs from another device and using some of the files from the compile.
It seems when compiling from the latest 5.1 omni sources there is an issue, well for me anyway.
I contacted big biff on IRC about this and he seems to think it should compile OK and doesn't know what the issue is.
However I can't even get a bootable version from existing working trees.
I can't be bothered reverting everything to earlier sources so just used some of the working files from the build I compiled from source and the rest ported over.
I still haven't managed to nail the issue.
If you want I can get something up on github and maybe we can work on it to get it booting?
You will have to bear with me though as I deleted a load of stuff as I needed the space, so it may have gone.
What is the issue you are having?

I'm getting the same issue where it won't boot. Sits at the BL with the Recovery is SE Android warning. Can't get past that dagum screen. Here's my current tree: https://github.com/BigBot96/android_device_samsung_gts2wifi
Compiles without errors but no go. The last recovery I ported was for the Verizon Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 LTE and it was very simple to get up and running. Both CWM and TWRP.

[Kernel+][Exynos] Kali NetHunter for the Galaxy S7 edge

​
WARNING: When using custom kernels on the S7 edge, never turn off developer options or OEM unlock. If you do, you will lose all your data and have to flash a full stock firmware restore to use your device again!
OKAY SO
This is Kali NetHunter 3.15.2 for the Galaxy S7 edge.
If you don't know what Kali NetHunter is, well, it's the entire Kali Linux operating system in a chroot on your phone, plus a bunch of awesome apps for executing exploits, fixing things, doing cool things. It goes on, I suppose.
I'm gonna be honest guys, I'm not a security person. When it comes to security, I'm more of a Paul Blart.
What I do know though, is that there is apt-get, and apt-get is life.
Find much more information here: https://github.com/offensive-security/kali-nethunter/wiki
The answer to all your questions, generally the answer is YES, IT CAN DO THAT.
Most ROMs should be supported, as our installer uses a dynamic patching method on your current boot image!
The NetHunter installer zip will add a few files to your /system partition, and install all of the NetHunter apps to your /data partition.
The chroot is located in /data/local/nhsystem, so you don't have to worry about your system partition being full. It's full read/write capable.
Understand that the zip will replace your current kernel with a completely different one.
This is necessary because most stock or custom kernels don't provide the drivers needed to operate most of Kali NetHunter's features.
NetHunter also includes its own Busybox that gives you full large file support and some extra applets.
It will not overwrite your current one, and will happily install alongside it as busybox_nh.
DOWNLOAD
Current version: 3.15.2 (stable, 2016-11-04)
Please be careful to download the right version based on this table:
SM-G935F, SM-G935FD, SM-G935W8, SM-G935X: kernel-nethunter-hero2lte-*
SM-G935K, SM-G935L, SM-G935S: kernel-nethunter-hero2ltekor-*
S7 flat: You're in the wrong forum!
All others be sad.
For the apps, chroot, and everything other than just the kernel, you will also need to download:
nethunter-generic-arm64-*
See installation instructions before proceeding!
Downloads are available at: http://build.nethunter.com/nightly/
BEFORE INSTALLING
IMPORTANT: Kali NetHunter requires write access to your data partition!
This means that if your data partition is encrypted, you will need to use the [Format Data] button in TWRP to remove encryption.
This will delete all your data, including internal storage.
You should back everything up first before installing Kali NetHunter.
Samsung Smart Switch Mobile can be useful for this, and allows you to back up your apps to a location on an external SDcard.
Unfortunately it doesn't back up most app data.
The Kali chroot and apps are installed on your data partition (in /data/local/nhsystem for chroot). To initialize the chroot and install Kali Linux, you need to start the Kali NetHunter app.
The generic NetHunter installer will automatically install SuperSU. We try to keep it up to date, but it isn't always.
If you already have SuperSU or another root method installed, please simply delete the supersu.zip from the root of the zip file before installing it.
It's recommended that you restore or flash your ROM's original kernel before installing NetHunter.
It's become apparent that there may be issues with the stock ROM and this kernel, and that it might run best on a Note 7 port.
FULL INSTALLATION STEPS
Install Team Win Recovery Project to your recovery partition.

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Recommended: If you have a custom kernel or SuperSU installed, restore your stock kernel. (called Boot in TWRP)
This isn't entirely necessary, but you may need to flash the NetHunter kernel again if SuperSU replaces it.
If your data partition doesn't mount in TWRP:
Go to [Wipe] -> [Format Data] (not advanced wipe) -> type "yes".
WARNING: This will wipe your internal storage, disable encryption, and factory reset your phone!
Once your data partition is formatted, go to [Reboot] -> [Recovery].
Download the kernel-nethunter zip specific to your device.
Without exiting TWRP, transfer the NetHunter kernel installer zip to your device over MTP* and flash it using [Install] in TWRP.
If you wiped your data partition in step 2:
Go to [Reboot] -> [System].
Set up your phone by following the Android setup wizard.
Once it's set up, reboot back into recovery.
For new installations: Download the nethunter-generic-arm64-kalifs zip.
For upgrades: Download the update-nethunter-generic-arm64 zip.
Without exiting TWRP, transfer the NetHunter generic arm64 installer zip to your device over MTP* and flash it using [Install] in TWRP.
Go to [Reboot] -> [System].
Wait 2-5 minutes for your device to finish setting itself up.
Open the NetHunter app to initialize the environment
You're done!
* MTP, known as Media Transfer Protocol, is the same way you transfer files from your PC to your device when booted into system.
UPDATING TO A NEWER BUILD OR UPDATING YOUR ROM
Follow the installation steps above. NetHunter can be installed over itself as many times as you'd like.
If you don't want to lose your chroot, flash the smaller update-nethunter-generic-arm64 zip instead.
THE KERNEL
The NetHunter kernel for the Galaxy S7 edge is based on Samsung's OSRC N930SKSU2BPID Note 7 kernel sources.
It has the following changes:
Carefully updated to Linux 3.18.44 (with dirtycow vulnerability patched)
SELinux permissive
F2FS updated to Jaeguek Kim's latest kernel.org f2fs-stable sources
F2FS formatted data partition support
Enabled USB (OTG) Atheros, Ralink, and Realtek WiFi drivers
FIOPS IO scheduler as default IO scheduler, SIO available
USB HID Gadget keyboard & mouse support
mac80211 packet injection support
DriveDroid compatibility
Additional drivers built in for the full Kali NetHunter experience
Data partition encryption disabled (not supported by custom kernels at the moment)
Kernel module support, insert your own modules!
CIFS, NFS available through included kernel modules
RAN INTO AN ISSUE OR BUG?
In order for me to help you, you have to at minimum reply with:
The link to the exact zip you downloaded
Your device model
The name of the ROM you're flashing it on
The version and build date of the ROM you're flashing it on
A complete description of your problem
If your issue is with a specific app, it might be better to contact the developer of that app.
For Kali NetHunter bugs/issues, you can open a ticket at: https://github.com/offensive-security/kali-nethunter/issues
If your issue is during the installation (ex. flashing the NetHunter zip), then please collect a TWRP recovery.log for me.
If you found a problem and were able to fix it, and no one's mentioned it in the thread already, it would be kind to state the issue and your fix for others to make use of as well.
You can join me and the other NetHunter developers on IRC at the #nethunter room on freenode to more handily diagnose problems together.
I apologize, but I can't do house calls at this time.
KNOWN ISSUES
USB Keyboard - The keyboard is unusable when using Google Keyboard as your input method. Switch to Hacker's Keyboard.
Reboot after 60 seconds - Sometimes when you boot your device it could reboot after 60 seconds because of a Samsung secure service not responding. Unresolved, but rare, and only happens within 60 seconds of a boot.

try todays build I missed the 2 in hero2lte model check script. really weird because it should have also caught hero2ltexx
are you using the latest official twrp?
also the table is correct, so don't flash other model builds on your device

Thanks for the kernel, does this work with Superman rom does anyone know? Is this essentially stock kernel with some extras, do all cores work?
One last question, is it safe to use the Note7 Canadian kernel on the Canadian S7 edge? I ask because unlike the US, the processors are not the same, S7 Edge is Qualcomm and Note7 is Snapdragon bit in the usa on the otherhand both are Snpdragon, same cpu.
Cheers!

It's impossible to use Snapdragon kernel on Exynos. We're only supporting the Exynos devices, as the Canadian Snapdragon is locked.
The Canadian S7 edge should run the International S7 edge kernel without any issues.
I would assume it should work fine with any of the ROMs out right now, unless their boot image is unable to fit the new kernel. Most if not all ROMs are probably using the stock boot image with a few text edits here and there, so they should be fine.
As for the all cores working issue, I ran into one where 2 of the main cores were unable to start up when I had KALLSYMS disabled. I had to enable it anyways since I'm using module support, so at least that's not an issue in this kernel that exists, I think...
I'm running stock everything.. will this still work? I have twrp running as previously rooted but the app I rooted for requires permissive but mine is enforcing..
Will it work with super-man rom and Will everything work fine

The adapter is required to use monitor mode. You can still do MITMF and similar tools without it.
So far from my testing, this doesn't work with any S7 roms. Only the N7 ports, has anyone else experienced this?

Untested some guy asked me if I can port my build N from ghost so here u go
maybe we have the same bugs here like ghost.
please test and report.
What bugs should I expect ? Planning to test it over the weekend.
i wana try it but stuck on kitkat 4.4 su-6-7.7 firmware, any way to root in and unlock its bootloader
First you have to unlock the bootloader, but I think on the latest 4.4.su 6-7.7 isn't possible ...
Still got my droid mini around. Will do some testing for y'all.
Edit: Can't get this to boot. It's stuck on the BL screen and doesn't even reach the rom's boot screen. Using TWRP 2.8.4.0. Is there an updated one for obake?

I have not tried.
I was hoping I could try once the non working features are working.
Droid mini XT1030, stuck on the bootloader screen.
Can your team fix this?
from following the moto x (ghost) forums (my maxx is currently a ghost in droid clothing running aokp) twrp 3.1.1 is required iirc, due to some new wrinkle that needs support baked in for N. someone would have to port the unofficial one over in the other forum over to us. i can say though, that running ghost firmware, 3.1.1 works great on our devices.

don't we need TWRP >2.8.x to boot N? i ran into this issue a few months ago trying to use the ghost version of this rom. if you can come up with a 3.1.1ish build of twrp for my xt1080m, i'll be happy to test both out.
edit: in fact very interested. i've yet to be able to use my jawbone era earpiece via bluetooth without the connection dropping and phone doing a hard reset. probably highlights one of the few differences in the ultra vs x, if i had to wager a guess. if you have more targeted drivers, in fact i will beg you to let me.
edit 2: i'm good at capturing logcats for devs so they don't have to hear me ramble all the time to figure out wtf i am talking about.
Please don't let this thread die. We have now @tom.etc as a capable tester.
Twrp 3.1.1 for GHOST works on Mini, Maxx, and ULtra

I got a droid mini for free. It was on an old software version, hadn't been touched in years. I unlocked the bootloader with sunshine and then let it take like 7 system updates until it was up to date, then flashed twrp 2.8.4
I had issues flashing the lineage os 13 unofficial for obake https://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-ultra/development/rom-cyanogenmod-13-obake-t3319958, it was stuck on the lineage boot screen. I was trying to use twrp 2.8.4 because that was the latest version I could find for this device.
As mentioned above, it seems that GHOST (Moto X 2013) software does work on the droid Maxx, Ultra, and Mini Family. I flashed 3.1.1 twrp_ghost from https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/development/twrp-touch-recovery-unofficial-t3309449 on my droid mini and it works.
When I tried to flash Lineage os 13 though, it would fail to flash, saying the firmware file wasn't made for ghost_verizon since I was using the 3.1.1 twrp from ghost, TWRP is under the impression that I am using a different device.
If you open the rom zip using WinRAR, and you can copy the updater-script located at META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script to your desktop, open the file, change 2 instances of "obakem" to "ghost_verizon", save the file, then with WinRAR still open copy the updater-script back into the zip. I flashed the zip in twrp 3.1.1 after doing this and successfully booted into lineage os 13.
I flashed lineage os 14.1 for ghost from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/development/rom-unofficial-lineageos-14-1-t3667515 on my droid mini using the 3.1.1 ghost twrp and lineage os boots! It has on screen buttons for back, home, and recent apps though, the hardware buttons aren't working. Also, as mentioned over there, the camera does not work.
Anyways, sorry for the long explanation. I tried getting this rom to boot in twrp 3.1.1 by updating the updater-script the same way but it didn't work. So there's some other issue causing this rom not to work. If you want nougat just flash twrp 3.1.1 ghost, and lineage os 14.1 for ghost, that worked for me.

since i have my device already reporting itself as ghost and not obake, i should not have to edit anything then. the recovery and rom should just work, no?
fyi, up through MM, the patch offered in this forum for lollipop has worked swimmingly for activating the capacitve buttons on any ghost rom i've tried. then its usually just a matter of disabling the navbar.

Yes. If you have the twrp 3.1.1 for ghost already installed on a Droid Maxx/ultra/mini, you should be able to flash ghost roms without needing to modify them, then flashing the patch you mentioned which does enable the capacitive buttons.
