Nexus 6 Roms with different lay-out? - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey Guys,
I have a question..
I'm looking for a nice rom for my Nexus 6. But with a total different interface. And not the standard Google Launcher lay-out. I mean roms like Flyme OS (only google apps will not work on that). So i'm looking for another nice option.
Thanks!

Stuff like Flyme and MIUI aren't available for the N6.

I know that, Flyme is possible btw. And they are busy porting MIUI to N6. But maybe someone knows other roms that have that kind of lay out.

If you search on general forum theres a post by me about flyme os.
Only problem is that it is chinese.

I tried Flyme OS already. Only google apps wouldnt install. And there's another one but on that one i cant login on snapchat etc etc..

You get an Android developer device and dont want the Android ui? They are not gonna get miui to work completely due to the changes they make and then they would have to release the full kernel source which we all know they don't want

I just like the lay out of MIUI, i had a Redmi Note before it was stolen. And i liked the lay out. Maybe there was a rom that kinda the same lay-out. Doesnt need to be MIUI in specticulair. Like Flyme is awesome tho, but gapps dont work on that.

Why don't you just use Layers or CMTE themes and mix/match different themes for how you want it to look. Then using xposed you can use things like Flat Style Colored Bars and do even more customization. You can even use a different launcher and customize that further. AOSP > things like MIUI or Flyme IMO

How about trying the Chinese forums ?
bbs.gfan.com
bbs.zhiyoo.com
romjd.com
bbs.loorin.com
There are probably links to others within the ones above.

Does any have no calls receive on flyme ported rom?

[REQ] Stock Android Theme

I searched this forum and didn't see anything on it, but if there is already something on it I'm really sorry. =[
Has anyone considered creating a stock Android theme for the Fascinate?
it will be here when we can get asop booting, whcich they already have it just needs a few bugs worked out, like the phone working as a phone, and a few others. not to long.

[REQ][APP] Sense Camera app for CyanogenMod 10.2 (4.3)

The Cyanogenmod and GPE rom camera apps are terrible compared to the Sense camera, in my opinion. Can anyone get it ported please?
Nope

maybe due to different framework

The Sense Apps all rely on the closed sourced HTC frameworks. They can not be ported to non Sense Roms. Many have been trying for years and it has always failed.
Therefore it's not as simple as just copying some Sense libs over to the CM install in order to run the apps that call them; the Senseness permeates more aspects of the ROM than that.
(Not trying to second guess anyone, I honestly just want to understand why I have to give up my dream of simultaneous CM + good pictures on the One.)

Right as the all sense apks need the HTC framework files.
This is what you give up when you move to an open source distro like cm. You lose all the cool closed source stuff for open source that you can edit freely.

oxygen-os on shamu

there is possible to install the oxygen-os on shamu?
Why? Any specials ?

That is like asking for Sense or touchwiz on the shamu. Can it be done? yes but it will be buggy and whats the point. Any feature the OS has can be done without needing the whole OS. This is a nexus not some OEM device that needs roms ported to it.

I have not found it anywhere. They must be high-risk files since the developer does not identify itself.

Trusted or not, his roms are very reliable. XD Went back to XenonHD again as soon as I saw his name pop out on google. I sure hope he continues to update his roms. :fingers-crossed:

Yup. Googled his name and then boom. When I saw he updated XenonHD, I went on and download it instantly. xD Thanks mate! XenonHD plus your camera mods, I think I'll be staying on stock android longer now.
There is a significant difference in terms of speed between cc0705's versions and official ones. I don't know why official roms don't have this snappiness.
I've used both cc0705's RR and AICP unofficial and official builds. It's not about kernel since i did use custom kernel on official and unofficial builds.
I think our rom makers should see this as a "problem".
I am on Xenon last build ...
good rom, very fast only one problem ... substratum is preinstalled, but when i run it it wrote legacy mode ... so there is no oms support?
I notice that there is also the emotion rom. Someone has tried It?
he is a friend of mine. he only makes this roms as a hobby on his free time, thats why u wont see his thread anywhere. you can use his roms, but he will NOT take any complaints. he was in AFH but decided to move to sourceforge. you can find him at sourceforgenet/projects/cc0705/ (add a dot before "net")
edit: if you use telegram, you can add this channel @mi5roms for rom updates
Just a heads up people, he updated all of his ROMs today.

Well apparently, he knows his ROMs very well. Send him our regards.
I've used his Emotion os and Ubertc RR. Emotion OS has a bug but I'm not pointing out that as developer isn't here. However I am using his RR as my daily driver. Very much smooth ROM. @Windslash31 please send him my regard.

What are the Best Roms with no Issues for the Mi Max 2?

What are some good roms for the mi max 2 thats not MIUI with NO issues. And one with the ability to install Substratum?
The stable ROMs from MIUI are the only one with NO major Issues. And none of them support Substratum yet. There are some custom ROMs, but they are not Stable, most of them are on Beta/developer ROM.

Download Oreo/Nougat theme on Theme Store. Install Nova launcher and find yourself an icon pack. You should be able to have 95% android stock look.

The problem with that is that the system theme is not dark but white which is blinding to my sensitive eyes.

Appreciate the link but this theme is in chinese. If I get this phone it'll be for the global version since I'm in USA. Will; this theme be in english?
Other than that MIUI is soooo outdated looking. It looks as outdated as win 95. Very disappointing.
The theme will be in whatever language your phone is.
I don't know which version of MIUI you are looking at, but it has come a long way. It's not as bad as it used to be and in terms of design it doesn't look outdated at all except for the ugly icons, which you can easily change. The Themes app allows for a lot of customization which on stock Android can only be done on a rooted phone, too.
Anyway, I still prefer stock Android over MIUI as well, but before Lineage OS is stable enough for me, I'll have to stick to MIUI. These are my settings in the themes app to make it look more like stock Android and darkish enough for me:
Lock Style: Default
Status Bar: Clean
Icons: Limitless
Messaging: Default
Dial Pad: Simple & Clean UI
Favourites Tray: Default

I'm on the "Global" version of the phone there are plenty of dark themes available in english, visit the themes sub-section on the official MIUI forums at http://en.miui.com/forum-7-1.html and take a look for any that take your fancy... On a side note there are way to many iPhone themes there,,,

None.
Yet.
At least, according to your criteria. Especially the "NO issues" part. (Current LineageOS for Mi Max 2 still has some issues - for e.g. IR does not work yet.)

That's the only issue (usless one)
IR has probably been fixed by now, it's just a matter of time until xuefer posts his updated build here. There are devs actively working on Lineage based builds for the Max 2, I'd say a couple more weeks until we start seeing more ROMs here.
