Hi to everybody
I am new with Nexus 9 so i need a little bit of help choosing the best Rom for me and maybe for someone else.
I tried the Remix OS but i find it a lot different from the desktop version so it is not for me. I need a stable with minimum to no freezes close to stock with minimum mods and maybe to be compatible with elementalx kernel. I found that if i flash a kernel with not compatible rom the camera doesn't work properly.
So i would appreciate any suggestions
Thank you
Resurrection Remix: For customisation and mods to your exact specification, with good performance, and OK battery if you use the Privacy Guard to control certain apps.
Pure Nexus: For the solid Nexus feeling. Although somewhat Pixel based now, absolutely solid in every regard with quite a lot of customisation.
Slim ROM 7: More of minimal, fluid, AOSP ROM with a small amount of mods.
CM14/Lineage OS: A purer form of what Resurrection Remix is based on, closer to AOSP with an acceptable amount of mods.
AOSP based ROMs are also an option, but you could also run stock and unencrypt it for slightly better performance.
I've tried a huge amount of ROMs on this, but since nougat, Ressurection Remix was the first ROM that had impressive performance, but I haven't been on that for quite some time. I recently switched to Pure Nexus and would definitely recommend it. Absolutely no issue for me so far.

Then you can boot to TWRP, Wipe, Format Data and reboot. Or manually wipe everything but system. SuperSU disables forceEncrypt when you flash it, so your new data won't be encrypted. For future reference, when you first flash a custom ROM, you can flash a kernel that has forceEncrypt disabled before your first boot or just flash SuperSU to prevent it. In NexusRoot Toolkit, you can even install your factory images with the stock kernel and forceEncrypt disabled as one of the options.

So if i do a twrp backup and move it to the pc, after follow your guide to disable forceEncrypt i can restore my back up and everything will be like before? Is it possible? And if it is which partitions it will be ok to backup so i can restore the after. Sorry for all this questions but i am new with the Nexus 9 even if i have all HTC devices.

I would recommend that you move your files manually and backup your apps with an app such as Titanium Backup. This could prevent you from restoring any potentially encrypted data . Personally, I wouldn't restore any partitions but if you had to, it would be data. But it could be worth a try, although I'd definitely suggest you just back up the necessary apps on titanium backup instead.

Not a dump question at all. Easiest way would be to go into security settings and if there's an option to 'Encrypt device', then you're not encrypted.

If you flash elementalx kernel do you have problem with the camera FC? Because every time I flash it, it gives me problems. I tried fire ice kernel and everything seems to work OK.

It did quite some time ago. When it was first released, I preferred it to Remix OS, but since then Remix OS has gotten much better. But I couldn't imagine sticking with either seeing as the Nexus 9 isn't particularly good at multitasking to begin with, mostly due to the CPU, but also the 2GB of RAM. But I'd recommend you try as many options as you can and see what suits you.

The only problem is that the ROM is based on lollipop. I am building an AOSCP ROM, tomorrow or the next day I will upload it. ?

Greetings EARTHLINGS,
Thought Id have a play with the latest CM11s with F2FS with AK kernel. Works brilliantly and the whole rom feels much smoother. ART working real good (I dont suppose it will with xposed).
You need to format system, to f2fs to flash this rom as follows:
- philz recovery make this easiest
- format to f2fs system, then cache, then data and data/media
Because it easy and he always does an excellent job I used Calkulin's Stock Rooted XNPH44S as the base for this.
Anyhow, its nice to share so here it is.
here - AK75 or
here - AK77
No support, and in the event of problems its not my fault.
Have fun. and thanks ak and Calkulin for your usual brilliance.
The bad news - Please note coverting to F2FS will destroy your data, so make a full backup and copy it to your PC first.
The good news - If you are already using 44R on ext4 format
- make a full TWRP backup and copy to your PC.
- install this and any other scripts you want after you have reformatted to F2FS, philz is easiest for this step.
- copy your nandroid back to your phone
- restore your ext4 data (select only the data) to your new f2fs rom with TWRP.
HINT ABOUT RECOVERIES- I find using philz is good for the initial format, but TWRP is better for making and restoring backups. I use TWRP multirom as my daily now my OPO is converted to f2fs.
Please also note that any OTA will not work as the stock ROM is ext4. I will however update the ROM when an OTA occurs.
So this is a rom in that you put AK kernel there?

No, Its modified version for f2fs only. And this is the only difference between this and stock C11S.
Once you go to f2fs are we able to go back and use our ext4 backups and not lose anything really want to try but want to make sure I can go back to ext4 much alohas

Sorry not correct. This has a modified boot, incorporating AK77 and the necessary changes to make it work with F2FS, so its not stock. Functionally, its the same as stock.
Also true stock is not available as a flashable rom (yet), so rather than re-invent the wheel, I used Calkulin's 44R flashable rom as a base. As I understand it, this is stock apart from the necessary changes to make it a flashable version, along with SU being provided and not installing stock recovery.

Yeah..I understand, actually I am also a fan of f2fs system and using CrDroid in f2fs system with tyr kernel. But the thing is apart from kernel and updater script, there is no visible difference in both roms and technical terms make someone really difficult to understand whats going on.
Anyway, keep up the good work. I faced some problems with AK Kernel while incorporating with CrDroid f2fs but now I will give another try :laugh:

Cool,
Let me know when you have done it and Ill help test it. Multirom is a marvellous thing, and what the heck, one more rom isnt going to make any difference. Im permanently connected to my OPO and PC anyhow.
Flashed it yesterday. Working great so far.
Thanks a lot!
I flashed today, works everything except I haven't root. I have to flash supersu in recovery?

Download beforehand to have available during initial flash.
Also for myself, I was able to keep Data by going to Advanced in twrp and only formatting /system dalvik cache, and cache. Mileage may very.

Actually CM12 uses its own Privacy Guard to manage root, so you don't really need SuperSu or any other superuser app.

I have this CM12 installed and running on my v510 right now and it is unbelievable. The thrill of seeing the cyanogen boot ani on my v510 was beyond words. Will report any issues but it looks great so far. I did a dirty flash (only wiped system, dalvik cache and cache) over the stock lollipop and Sleekai4.7 with no problems. Will likely clean full wipe install later today but just wanted to play, thank you so much for breathing new life into this great device.
Thank you sir, will be sending you some $$$ today you deserve it.

Simply put, it is a way to insure that what you downloaded is what was put on the download site by the creator. There are many windows and android free versions of the MD5 checksum utility. Once you download something you open it in the MD5 checker and it will generate and MD5 hash (among others) you then compare it to the one on the download page. If it does not match it is not the same file as placed there. Either a bad download or worse case scenario a virus or other malware was injected into the download.

OK, I have been playing now for a bit and I can say this build looks pretty solid. I could not gain root access for any apps until I flashed UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.40.zip in TWRP since then all has been well. I can write access to system folders and SD media card fine with FX File Explorer. All root apps ie.. better battery stats , Titanium bu, stick mount and Trickster mod and busy box all look fine. And still only on a dirty flash from stock lollidog. As expected no GPS which is no biggie for me had it turned off anyway, rarely leaves my house. And maybe I am drunk with enthusiasm but the display looks crystal clear and brighter than ever before (whiter whites !!!).
Fantastic !!!

[Q]
I have the last lineage on the phone which is very good. But it has a MTP error which causes a download error, that can be temporary fixed changing USB connection in developer options, but eventually need to do again after a reboot. Is easy, but this phone is with my mother, and is not for her.
Previously the phone was with hyper, super nice appearance but slow compared with that, and she is more familiar with Google style. So didn't like go back to stock either.
So the question is: Which is the most recent rom without any kind of errors ? (not necessarily nougat), also not so customized (because usually many things on menu are in English, and that is also confusing to her).

If you want a near perfect rom then stock firmware is the way to go but 4.3 is the latest. If you want a bug free latest android you need to buy a newer phone.
ALL custom roms are beta, even when completely finished. The only "bug free" experience is with stock firmwares and roms that are made by the carrier/manufacturer.

True, but in many cases bugs are close to zero or doesn't show a error message as this one.
So do you have any suggestion, with the best non stock (and non stock based ROM) ?

@aalvico, you're welcome. Hope, your ma will be satisfied.
Hello!
This ROM is for devices Jeter (Xt1922-7) & *NEW* Aljeter (Xt1922-5) and is based on our most current Pie security patches. For Jeter that is PCP29.118-67 and for Aljeter that is PPP29.55-35-18. Please do not flash these ROM's if you are not on this security patch currently whether it is by updating OTA or otherwise or on a device not listed. If you do, you may face unexpected results and I will not be able to help you. Flash at your own risk.
How to Flash:
Boot into TWRP and make a full backup first!
1.Place ROM on your external SD card and do a full wipe except external SD Card.
2.Flash ROM. Magisk is included with my Custom *modified builds and will flash with the ROM. Download the latest magisk manager.apk from the Play Store or XDA to use root features.
3.Flash DM verity+Force Encrytion disabler patch and if desired, Permissive SEpolicy patcher.
4.Go back to wipe section of twrp and format data by typing YES when prompted.
5.Reboot and ENJOY!
If a problem arises, I may need you to replicate it and upload a log.
ROM FEATURES:
Root via Magisk with safetynet passing with Magisk Hide.
Su.d Support
Busybox
SQlite Support
Zipaligned
Debloated
TWRP flashable zip
Please download and get back to me with the results. There are TWO VERSIONS for each device, one is a completely untouched and unrooted Stock ROM for new users or those who went too far modding and need to start fresh and the other IS rooted and has the features I listed above. Thank you for testing and your feedback.

I have no idea, I might try this ROM out, it looks fun. I've currently got mine on stock. Do you recommend clean flashing or dirty flashing the rom? Never mind, read through the post.

Excellent. Thank you for your help ?
A quick question, is this was built via a kitchen? If so, which kitchen did you use? I've not had much luck with using my go to while messing with making my own ROMs.

I have no idea, I might try this ROM out, it looks fun. I've currently got mine on stock. Do you recommend clean flashing or dirty flashing the rom? Never mind, read through the post. Problem: I have no external storage. I generally use the TWRP and encrypted data fix by @skullkid383 to have access to my storage.

Encrypted data fix? None of the TWRP builds can decrypt data. The fix is to unencrypt your data partition. Is that what you're talking about? A zip that disables forced encryption? That's not really an encryption fix, it's removing forced encryption.
I will wait until this rom is made on 9.0 Stock before I start testing it as I've recently updated my Boost Mobile Jeter to 9.0

Lemme get in on this. I can take a log, been fooling with ROMs for a long time, not like I used to, but I got a new job with ample free time to burn up

Thanks, I'll add that in and upload a new version shortly.
Edit: @madbat99 The ROM is using the same apns.conf currently so Virgin should already be supported. I compared them in Meld and they are identical. Is your LTE not working?

I figured it was in there if you used the stock one. Should be Sprint, Virgin, and Boost.
First, I am not responsible to what happens after you flash this. If your phone dose not work afterwords it is your own doing. I didn't force you to flash it..
This is a stock rom for the most part for the Snapdragon Note 20 Ultra U1 that I use as my daily driver. I disabled file encryption, removed knox, fixed screen cast and shealth plus Bluetooth and smartwatch pairing. Most of the Google apps are uninstallable. I'll try to keep this up to date every month the best I can. Enjoy.
You Must Have A Unlocked Bootloader and a SM-N986 U1 or U Ultra to proceed.This Might Wipe Your Data!! Make a Back up!!.
Instructions:
1: Flash with Odin in the respective slots (bl, ap, cp and csc).
2: Wipe and format data in recovery if coming from a different rom or android version.
3: Reboot and set it up.
Enjoy.
See this thread or this thread if you need a unlock. The teams there are great!

Thanks @afaneh92 for the unlock and TWRP
Thanks @bklyn_syed for sharing the fixes for Bluetooth and shealth.

Thanks I built it last night.
Anyone who downloaded this before this post please re-download the rom. I had a file mixed up with another rom by mistake, sorry. New files are uploading now. Please report any problems you may have if any, Thanks.
I uploaded some a new build that addresses the game launcher crash and theme store crash.
@Misterxtc Very glad to see more custom roms being built.
Would you be able to build an AOSP rom for the Note 20 Ultra (SM-986U)?
Would love to see an AOSP rom like Lineage OS or Havoc OS

Me too but I haven't gotten one to boot properly yet. I also own a S20+ and would like to build something for both. I am exploring the options.

I don't think so but I'm really not sure, I haven't looked into it. The big deal for me is downloading more firmware, keeping track of more files, storage space and time. Honestly it's pretty simple to build your own. You can get all the info you need for that here .
@Misterxtc, what is your preferred method for root access?

Very exciting to see more Dev's like you making things better. Thank you.

I was sitting here debating on whether to go with 10 or 11 lol. Durrr me...I'm all for a custom cleaned up ROM any day over the untouched stock firmware. I see that your ROM is on the latest 11 (CUA1). Nice!
Since your tweaking the universal U1 firmware and since there isn't any carrier bloatware in there, is there much to really remove to make it even more lean and lighter? I know in the old days those firmware's were loaded with bloat and by removing them helped it a lot.
I also noticed that the latest 11 file size was smaller than the latest 10. From what you can see is that from just making 11 more efficient, thus making it lighter?
Regarding the change log:
Disabled File Encryption - Is that for the entire device file encryption or the built in folder encryption that was disabled? What are the benefits from disabling this? Does it just make it smoother even if you don't use the encryption feature on the device?
Removed Knox - Does using a smart watch to use Samsung Pay etc... still a work around even with the device knox removed?
Are there any settings to be able to tweak camera settings to improve the camera? iirc back in the Note 3 and 4 days, a Dev said that there was a value in the image quality or something that was set to I think 8 instead of the max 10? He had maxed that out and included that in the ROM... I'm curious if such adjustments exist in the 11?
Does the CUA1 have the baked in Microsoft Swiftkey (VIRUS) or is that only on carrier firmware's?
I have the Unlocked varaint of the Note 20 Ultra straight from Samsung. Oddly, it came with firmware ATGO, which is ATT lol.. but I'm on TM. What has been annoying is that I can't uninstall the darn microsoft swiftkey.
I love Swiftkey as a keyboard (best touch accuracy IMO), but despise the intrusivemness, so I like to use my own tweaked swiftkey with the internet premissions removed w/ using AFWall+ to block everything else. ie...
The thing is that I haven't been able to install the tweaked swiftkey due to it not letting me since the stock MS one is baked in...
