[ROM REQUEST] Pixel Experience or Linage OS for Galaxy Z Fold2 (F916B) - Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion

Hello everyone,
I'm completely new in developing, porting or building of Linux kernel and Android OS.
However I have a good experience with flashing, testing, rooting with many phones.
I think can help for testing of custom rom for our advanced phone . I very like a stock android fill and I'll happy to test features of stock android of this phone.

Not really forgotten, it only takes really quite a lot time to fix issues, do development work on specific ROM (or kernel) versions when switching between ROMs / Android versions
and there's also real life.
There are certainly more developers needed for the Z5, Z4/Z3+
I hope that almost a rom with oreo could be released soon, otherwise I will need to buy a new device

So the device that we are going to choose should be a device with a light weight ROM. I need statistics from different y series variants. Use a Task manager and take screenshot from your ram usage. And send to my email or my telegram.(preferred new variants like y6 2017)even if you are using a custom rom I can use that too

You should join our telegram group , you'll find a lot of help there.
So a marshmellow rom could be possible?
I think y6 is not good for Android 7 too heavy for that specs, a version with Android 6 on board could be really welcome for the best experience

What is your telegram group? I will be glad to join.If you mean that one in guides section it says link is invalid. I can create a group if there isn't one.
It would be possible. But Its going to need heavy debloating to minimize ram usage. As you can see there is no port of other devices. Roms out there are based on lineage. This is no fault of dear developers. You should consider the fact that as you know y6 is weak for handling higher androids and manufacturer roms like EMUI and MIUI. But we can make it possible by minimizing resource usage

Thats what you think, but this phone is capable of stable Nougat.

Ies it is only my opinion
All lineage attempt on board of y6 with 1 GB ram and that cpu, can't give a smooth experience than Android stock 5 or 6 that no need so much ram as Nougat or Oreo .
Mm is however a step ahead from lollipop.
Every working rom based on Android 6 for me, are appreciated.

Lineage 15 is much smoother than stock ROM or cm 13
Yeah nougat and oreo need more ram but are working good
Can you build cm 13 stable Rom for Huawei y6 ?

Cm 13 is already build for y6, just some bugs need to be fixed
He said he is porting, not building.

Its not only about resource usage, you are petty wrong.
I seen devices with hardware less powerful than y6 running nougat wihout a lot of optimisations, you first need to get the ROM working. And after that think about any optimisations.
hi there! are u still working on this or what ? :/

No Custom Rom for Mi 8 SE ?

Why isn't there any custom rom development for the Mi 8 SE? I really wanted to buy this phone for the amazing design & hardware in this price but don't like MIUI that much
So, is there any possibility of rom development for this phone in future?

I believe is should be ''yes" rom based on AOSP or LineageOS..etc
you mean that so? someone will make that thing for it. cuz source kernel for it is ready and released, many user xda or miui 4rum using this device.
But, one very important thing "Trebel running as well on almost devices and mi8se is also supported by this project and using some rom in the project treble, running quite stable and less bugs''.
So many one users mi8se here, there are a lot of reasons to believe this. it will comming soon , just patience to waiting.

Custom Rom for redmi 4x

Hey folks. I hope you guys are doing well.
I want to know that should I install custom rom on my redmi 4x? Will it create problem for my device for long term use? If not, then which custom rom is the most stable out there and fast as well. Literally which one will be the best? I want your help. Thanks!
Since there isn't any good compact budget phones out there and I had to change several apps I use because they're not compatible with the 4x's software anymore, I've been researching about this.
The most recommended ROM is PixelExperience, the main downside about it is that has been discontinued. It works on Android 10 and that's an improvement over the 7.1 we have. Here: https://download.pixelexperience.org/santoni
Another one quite recommended is Lineage OS. This one has not been discontinued as far as I know but works on Android 9. Look: https://lineageosroms.com/santoni/
With all the custom roms, just like official ones, there always will be users that say something is not working properly.
I haven't tried any custom rom, ok? I just googled a lot about the options.
Good luck.

Unfortunately Lineage OS stopped official builds for the Redmi 4X this year, when they stopped the 16 builds (official blog post).

From personal experience, I've used Lineage OS 15 and 16 since I bought this phone over 2 years ago. And it has been working great. It takes a beginner some time to get used to flashing, recoveries, testing new ROMs, etc. but that should not be a big issue. The Linage OS wiki has a very good tutorial on how to set the phone up, it should mostly work with other ROMs too https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/santoni/install

There's actually no developpement for Galaxy Tab S8 serie. The hardware is pretty new and Samsung doesn't help users to dives into his hardware...
If you want to try roms, you can still install TWRP and try GSI.
About Linux, except using Termux, you can't do anything since the Kernel is locked and there's no way (yet) to enable KVM on snapdragon devices...

GSI (Generic System Image) is a kind of rom that (should) work on any Treble enabled device (aka almost any device that come with Android 11 and up).
However, on Samsung devices, most of hardware relies on proprietary drivers (like camera or spen...), so you should'nt expect them to work good as using Samsung firmware
There is not custom roms almost to none Samsung device any more. Samsung is trying to become Apple. Locking every device with many ways. Only root there is, and this more difficult every year. Unfortunately Samsung is still creating the best hardware , and good software, so there isn't very easy to go to another company for the most users..
