Best CM based ROM? - LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers

Hey guys what do you think is the best CM based ROM and why?
I'm using mokee right now but it doesn't seem to be in development anymore. Also it has issues. Fingerprint sensor slow or unresponsive. Battery isn't great. Noticable lag in apps etc.
Which ROM has the most development?
Cheers

I also used mokee for a while and for me it is a very good ROM, except Kamera and Fingerprint sensor.
Mokee still in development, last update was today with some fixes.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but these updates are mostly auto builds with nothing device specific. The developer seem to make it clear that he was not developing for LeMax 2 anymore here.

sry my mistake, confused with another ROM.
Have you tryed ResurrectionRemix?

Been using the TeaMSpaiN CM13 ROM for a few weeks now.
A couple of minor bugs (wi-fi goes a bit nuts sometime and I've had 2 random battery drains) but overall it's fast and stable.
Worth checking out.

Mokee for now more stable. RR & LOS13 has one device tree and same errors we try to fix. I think it will be stable soon, but now it is beta, some errors with camera, voice quality.

Yeah I'm eagerly waiting for cr3pt's CM14. If you read the second post in the Mokee ROM post that guy explains what happened. There is drama throughout the post about what happened, but it is no longer actively developed.

Cm14 looks good, still no camera support tho ?

How many people are still using OxygenOS

I am not a big fan of the OS, i loved CM but none of the ROMs out there at the moment are any good. Is anyone else still using OOS or am I an odd man out
I'm using it because of horrible battery life on every CM baesd roms.
And I don't like how hydrogen works (app and memory management).

Same for me! And I like to be able to disable a sim card like in Oxygen! In cm13 that option is not available.

I'm only still on it because of the fingerprint scanner. Once the API is complete I'm moving straight over to CM 13. I can deal with the lack of SIM card control but the fingerprint scanner is a must.

But I like the idea of @matitorres07 and his Sensed Hydrogen. I hope he will continue with that after final release of Hydrogen, or even maybe switches to CM
Waiting for the cyanogen build with all the sensors working...not sure when the same is expected.

I am also on Oxygen. I would maybe try CM13, once it would be official but I am happy with Oxygen OS with a different Kernel. Different kernel and a different launcher and everything is perfect
Waiting for Fingerprint Sensor support on cm13, all other "bugs", i can happily live with

So true... for me life is a full circle, After staying on oxygen forever, switched to Skydragon OOS and then took plunge to SD H2Os as I noted it was much more actively being used by its author. Then shifted to CM13 but not happy with all these ROMS as they buggy and have some or the other limitation... though I desperately want a stable CM13 ROM with all sensors working... hate the lack of official support for many the famous ROMS... but love my OPT
Just because I want a full working Phone, stay un OOS.
I'm on OOS coz of fingerprint scanner ...
Why should I be on other Roms without fingerprint support when I have a scanner in my phone ...
H2O marshmallow 6.0 is much faster and stable than OOS.. and it's finger print sensor work much quicker
Now that CM13 has fingerprint.. I'm no sure what else is missing from it now.. But there's just something about it.. It still feels 'clunky' to me.. My opinion and experience of course! But for now I'll stick with Oxygen... Can't wait for CM13 though!!!

I have this same argument Can't wait for oos with mm
See this all the time.. BS.. Oxygen and even more so with the last update. Is a solid ROM. Better battery than any cm 13 and smooth not bloted. Yep.. I said it. Oxygen is a good ROM. People are quick to jump on the hate train and 90% of them do it just because..some just don't know better.
i'm still with oxygen because of the finger print sensor

I switched about a month ago. The fps is amazing on CM13, definitely up there with the phones that cost twice as much!
Thank you to all the developers that made this phone even better!!
Many are still on oxygen. Slowly shifting to CM13 now I guess. Let's see what OnePlus brings with M build soon. I'll pick the most stable one as I only have 1 phone which is this as a daily driver

Best 7.X rom?

Hey guys, so i've been seeing ALOT of new 7.x roms coming out this week, and this is really confusing me, there are so many options right now im just completely unable to choose one.
Im currently running with Ashwin's 7.0 Rom but i am always looking for new options.
Any one who has any idea which ones are worth looking into? Most of them all seem good.

Tesla!
Tesla-N, Beanstock, Xenon, AOISP, Aosp.. Both CM14 ROMs need a lot of work still.
I have to agree with the two above.
GZR's Tesla-N!
Tesla has nougat rom? I only find Tesla mm rom.
Omicron Technics
Thanks for the info guys, anyone know if any of these can be dirty flashed over my existing ROM?

Always do a clean flash if you are using a different rom.

All of them can be dirty flashed required that you have the right bootloader.
Dirty flashed being that your flashing the same ROM that's currently installed without wiping. Sometimes good for updating but clean flash is always suggested.
I've tried Tesla N but I usually get System UI stopped. Now I'm using XenonHD and it's working fine, only torch tile in quick setting is not working, and camera takes 10 seconds to start after restart (2 second the next times).
I tried 3 different ones from local devs, the best one, fully workable and ready to use is XenonHD. Thanks to it's dev!
XenonHD for me its more stable then cm14
Just a quick update y'all; im currently running Dirty Unicorns (there was a new version yesterday, 20.11.2016) and it is working flawlessly so far. Thanks for the help though!

For me, XenonHD doesn't work well. It lags quite a lot. Like the frame drops are significant. Maybe it's at like 10 or 8 fps on XenonHD. But I have had no problems with TeslaN 3.1. Except for the fact that it is a bit laggy, like whole switching from one app to another, it takes quite a lot of time

Nougat is still in it's infant stages also seems like majority of people looking for battery over performance. Look into Kernal Auditor helps adjusting for your liking. Custom kernels like Heliox, Arsenic and Black reactor might give you even more options for tuning. I found all of the Nougat ROMs to be quite good considering we don't have official support.

For me the most stable and functional CM ROM is the 'CM13 LeMaX 2 TeaMSpaiN RevolutioN' ROM. I've been using it since Xmas day with zero issues so far. There's also the 'Unofficial LineageOS' (CM14.1) ROM in mid development. I'm just about to try it. According to the OP everything works except for IR and the camera. No camera is a big problem, so I'm on the TeaMSpaiN ROM until they (hopefully) sort it. There's the 'CM13 MaX2 S19 UmBreLLaTeaM SpaiNTeaM' ROM. Slow motion issues and no IR. There was also one other CM13 I saw in the ROMS section. It was unnamed. I never checked it out.
The TeaMSpaiN RevolutioN ROM is likely the best atm. It benched just over 144k in AnTuTu, and it's stable. Not one FC for me so far. I haven't got into Xposed with it yet or tried tons of apps, so I'm sure there's some bugs. For general use though, I see no point switching unless they get the camera working in the 7.1.1 build. Hope that helps.

Just to let you know, the LinageOS build did not work for me last night. It sounds like you're comfortable flashing, so it shouldn't be a problem for you, but just a heads up in case it's your daily use device and you need it to work. It looks like cr3p is actively working on it though, so I do hope to see it become a solid platform.

I was a user of official mokee ROM from ffboy, the development now is stopped, it has a bug that is a no go for me, when Bluetooth is enabled the wifi stop working. I prefer a build with precompiled kernel from Teamspain or Umbrella, they are more stable.
That bug was there from the start, but it's true there is no development for our device

When I posted this I had done a full wipe of data and cache and flashed the LineageOS Unofficial clean. The result was about 2 minutes of boot screen followed by a solid black screen. When pressing buttons I could get a "Setup Wizard isn't responding", with options to wait or close. Either option resulted in black screen. I left the phone on during the day today, and several hours later I checked it and got the setup screen! I finished setup and it is now working. :good:
Camera does not work in this ROM.

Mokee is it's own OS. Not CM. If you're talking about the best ROM out there, I have no idea. I'm not completely new here (I try and search for answers, so almost never post), but I haven't been here for ages. Especially here in the Le Max 2 forum. I didn't hate EUI. There were a couple of things I liked, but CM13, stable and benching over 144k. I'll take it. For now anyway. There's a fair bit of fighting in the 7.1.1 ROM thread, so who knows if they'll work it out. They owe us nothing though, so we wait.
The question was "what is the best CM based rom?"
Mokee is CM based. Nevermind, I'll head to the lineage thread to see the fighting going on there ?
Edit: no fighting, very peaceful out there ?

My bad. Yeah it did seem to settle down. ffboy left officially so there wasn't really any point going on. A little back some guy claimed to have, as one member put it - 'the cure for cancer, but couldn't tell us until he'd spoken to his priest'.... heh. Something about him or a friend working with Qualcomm processors, but signed an NDA. Sounded a bit off. Who knows. I'm using Dual Boot Patcher to see what's out there. Great tool. Can try (edit) LineageOS, and quick switch to CM13 if I need the camera (unless it's a fast UFO sighting). Or whatever ROM you like. The only limit is storage.
Yup, ffboy was a very capable dev. He was able to port CM, MIUI and H2OS in very short time and was working on cm14 aswell.. well, let's wait and see

Cool. I'll have to get in to Xposed. The fingerprint feels like a memory thing to me. If you leave the phone for a while the first reads is slow, but straight after it's fast. Like the print images aren't cached. Doesn't bother me. It is a minus, but some reviewers are so spoilt for choice they make it a bigger deal than it is.
I'm am running the latest Mokee release 08-01-2017 with no issues on the FP and with only 1 print registered.

I still haven't tried the Mokee ROM. Something about a bot updating it worries me . If you think it's good, no harm in trying.
Edit : The FP speed in TS13 is confusing. Kinda random. Just used it now to start installing Mokee and it's near instant. Hadn't used the phone for hours. Go figure. The only constant is that it's always quicker after the first time.

Maybe thats because your system language is set to english? I read somewhere if you switch to english ( I have absolutely no idea why) it would work better. I tried, deleted all FP then switched to english, registered new FP and switched back to my language and it "seems faster".
Lost track of that ir patch (install via recovery) though.
Just tried Mokee. Don't really see anything special compared to CM, and multiple benchmarks put it a little under the revolution ROM. Also, it wont even pick up 3G on one of my sims, let alone LTE. Anyone know what the differentiator is between ROMS? I don't really like EUI, but it instantly finds LTE. The revolution ROM is kinda stubborn. It see's the 4G provider, but fails to register if I try immediately. I've worked out if I just wait a few minutes before choosing it registration works. The Lineage ROM picks up LTE fine like EUI.
Side note, for those who wanna try out dual/multiple OS. Turns out ROMS don't run slow on the other slots using Dual Boot Patcher. I had one of the bugged (slow) Lineage releases. I have 4 other ROMS installed atm. All work as expected and run at full speed. It's awesome and easy. Patch, flash, setup ROM. Then to switch, use the app or the DualBootUtilities zip within recovery. Reboot, different OS. No more 'which one do I pick?'.

Current State of LineageOS 14.1

Hey guys. Does anybody know what bugs/missing functionality we currently have with the LineageOS 14.1 nightlies? https://download.lineageos.org/h830
I'm not a huge fan of LG's stock ROM, but I would like full functionality of my phone if I switch to a custom ROM. Thanks!

You can never get full functionality of LG Stock ROM on any custom ROMs.
Even though I have not flashed LOS, I can tell you few things that may not work.
1. Wide Camera
2. IR Blaster
3. Most Probably any friends modules if you own them.
I'm interested in knowing too before I try it. As long it's stable with all cameras working, I'd be fine.

Well, I've been on los for a while now..
-As far as I know NFC is not working (on not using it so no idea, but it seems to drain the battery an not work properly)
-BT works for eg headphones but not for headsets
Charging is still an issue. It is faster now but still not even close to fast charging. An on a 3rd party charter or is ridiculously slow
-the wide angle camera is working but you have to toggle between the cameras to get to it. The auto focus might be a problem, but it is mostly solved I think.
-playing music is sometimes a drag, and can be laggy
-FM radio is non existing, not supported, will probably never be...
Other issues have been solved, other pop up, but since there are weekly updates, that's what it is.
-be careful, root has to be installed separately and if you don't do so, immediately after installing the ROM, you will most likely end up in the famous Twrp bootloop..
Before installing it I'd read at least the last 20 pages in the forum, these should give you an idea... Or go to the fulmics ROM. It is stock based so everything should be working. To my knowledge all the LOS based ROMs share the same issues.

Oh what is this - LineageOS 15?

Bluetooth
Wifi

Fingerprint
Broken:
VoLTE?

In my opinion nougat and oreo are the most unexciting Google OS I know. It's nice to have, but half of the first year after release devs on XDA and even Google itself trying to bring back the performance or/and battery life the OS version before had.
Not to mention the problems with Magisk etc.

I suppose you're right. Neither Nougat or Oreo have brought significant changes, they have both been 'minor' updates with subtle changes to improve certain aspects of the OS. The last major update to Android was Lollipop, when the entire appearance was drastically overhauled from previous versions. I'm only excited because we just have to take what we're given, and any update to update the appearance and usability of Android after an entire year is a refreshing change! Even though Nougat was only a small update, it feels unbearable to me when switching back to Marshmallow without the new quick settings swipe-down; the one before the entire notification area appears. So even the small features can make a lot of difference to the overall experience! I'm still really looking forward to seeing the changes made in Oreo for myself when it comes to the Axon 7.

I don't get why people say this, honestly. Just because you didn't get a visual overhaul like you got from KitKat to Lollipop doesn't mean there weren't significant changes. Visually the OS is already at a level where there's no need for a major change (it has been "ready" since Lollipop, imo; Marshmallow, Nougat, and Oreo have all had small visual tweaks but have stuck to the Material language), and most of the tweaks work "under the hood." Oreo will bring Project Treble, which may just be the most significant change in Android in the last few years. It also brings improvements on the behavior of notifications and background services or apps. It's an incremental update, yes. But it's by no means a small update.
@Gases
We talked about excitement.
I mentioned the problems with the new OS updates, which brings maybe more security but also many problems to custom ROMs. Furthermore there are more problems in the first months. I don't need visual tweaks.
Project treble is mainly positive for stock ROMs. We will see, in which way custom ROMs can profit of this new feature.
Background battery eating apps are no problem on custom ROMs based on LOS, if you use the internal features or external apps. But again. It's nice to have already implemented.
Finally I am always thankful for all kind of ROMs and kernels devs provide to the community. And I was always someone who donated to say 'thank you'

I am not the dev but this is probably more a promotion thread. Final builds will surely be on developement thread.
Some devs are working on oreo right now.
Let's wait and be thankful for their work.
Here is a small update about the situation. Since the most common stuff is working im going to release this rom in 1-3 days. But don't expect to much. This rom is still WIP.
Working now:
RIL(Calls, Sms)
Audio
Most of the stuff (NFC etc.)
Broken:
Camera
Fingerprint
VoLTE (Will be probably broken until we get new blobs)

What about the speakers? Do they have the same problem as before the fix was found?

Probably since they just got audio to work and the ROM is very experimental.
Really looking forward to testing this when the first release is posted on the forums. I'm just hoping the camera and fingerprint sensor will be relatively simple to fix. Thanks for everything you've done so far!

Audio is working normal. Like on cm14.1 both speakers are working just fine.
yes.. you are the man!
hopefully cam and fingerprint will fixed soon.

Actually it would be nice if you can upload to test for us fp and camera is not important for me.

That would be nice and all, but I think the devs want mostly everything to work for those that prefer to have a stable build and etc.

I was just looking over in the Nexus 6 forms and to overcome the camera issue for them they had to upgrade from 7.1.2 - 8.0 and then restart the phone. So there is hope especially since the Nexus 6 is a 32-bit phone and I'm pretty sure 8.0 was supposed to be 64-bit.
