Given the proliferation of Rom with Oreo for the 2 max, I decided to open this thread in order to report the experiences of various users, to give an indication to those who want to install the new version of Android 8, without having to read all the pages of the Rom to find the various bugs. Among the most common bugs I found problems with camera focusing, audio on call via bluetooth, impossibility to adjust the volume of calls with headphones, vocal messages whatsapp that do not play or too weak as volume, etc.

With the Acip the only bugs that I found are not working flashlight and low volume voice recording in WhatsApp but other than that I haven't found.

the torch that does not work from the control panel was one of the problems common to all the Rom. For the flashlight, however, just download an application from the play store and resolves.

I've spent the last hour hunting for a Bug List for CM12 or AOSP Lollipop on the Z2, but I can't find anything useful. I'd love to install AOSP on my Z2 but I don't see the point if any of the hardware is non-functional.
Can anyone point me at the list of known issues for CM12, or the common ones for AOSP roms?
Do any of the ROMS actually have the Camera, WIFI, BlueTooth, Data, Tap to wake, etc all working well enough for a daily driver?
The only thing I found is the Known issues list on the CM12 WIKI but it was last updated 3 months ago, and the list looks way to short to be true.
As far as I tried it, only problem is the speaker is not working on calls. I mean you can make a call through the earspeaker, headset, Bluetooth etc. but you can not make it through the speaker. The sound just won't come out.
Other than that everything works.
Compared to stock Sony software;
-Google photos app isn't full screen unlike Sony Album.
-it's still far better than many phones on the market but Sony's Walkman sounds slightly better than CM's music apps.
-CM's music and call sounds are noticeably higher, but slightly worse on quality
-no Xposed for Lollipop yet
-when using Sony software, I always use it on power save mode but on the AOSP Lollipop, the top bar is orange when powersave mode is on. That's annoying

Sounds like there aren't any really big issues to worry about unless you need to put a call on loudspeaker, which I almost never do. It's bound to be a few months before we see lollipop arrive from a the mobile carry. Think I'll pick a ROM and try it out.

I'm on CM12 and the issues I have come across so far are
loudspeaker not working and earpiece not working on whatsapp calls.
There are some random force closes in the camera app
As a daily drivers it's good enough.
You cannot hear any sound on earspeaker from apps like Viber or Skype.. Voice on Loudspeaker is working fine during Internet calls.
My speaker does not work at all in any app or in calls. Also, Double Tap to Wake does not work.
Here is list of CM12 bugs that i came across. Not official. http://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/103915-cm-12-nightlies/

Hello,
I don't understand, there's tons of people using custom roms on C6833 device.
There's toussands of hundreds people that has at least tried to record their voice, their landscape, their street, their home.
How couldn't anyone notice that the sound recorded is inaudible ?
Even shazam can't recognize a well known music.
My snapchat friends don't hear me on their android and iphone nor on windows phone.
I had to switch back to stock to have some "stock audio recording".
It's like something is blocking the microphone when a custom rom is installed based on any cyanogenmod, rc, stable, nightly, ver 10.2 , 11, 12.
I have even tried to report this issue for a stable version of cm on kit kat with a log on jira.cyanogenmod, but I couldn't run the test the good way, gave up, they closed my report.
Please, anyone that understands codes, sources, developpements stuff, ask users, ask (wait, I'm gonna create a poll)
So my question is: Do you have a decent volume recording while you are using your camera app on cyanogenmod 10.2 or 11 or 12 ?
Witht the camera app, with snapchat, with shazam, with voice recorder app ?
Do your friends hears you ?
Do shazam recognize something at a decent level of your computer/radio ?
Do you hear yoyrself as on a stock rom when recording with a memo voice ?
Moderators: if I post this in Q/A, nobody will react, this issue is not taken seriously, I think that nobody records anything, this happens since I own a custom rom except when I relock the bootloader and use my stock laggy rom.
Please, make it know cm devs, ask every krait-400 based devices owners if this is still happening.
Poll seems to not work:
Even if you are a z1 owner, do you noticed the non-record of your audio when using anything that needs sound source ?
Did you ever tried to record a video with your device before and after flashing ?
End (want to delete it moderators, then delete it, but I already tried everything, I'm pissed of switching back on stock just for the sound recording works perfectly and losing the beauty of lollipop) + I hate kit kat stock with preinstalled apps
To mention: I even were on cyanogenmod.forum to discuss about it and nobody seems to take care of that issue, it's like they deal with it like I will have to do and like I have always been
Most of the redmi note 4 qualcomm devices facing mic problem that the person on the other end can't hear you properly when calling or receiving. Is there any solution for this? Seniors please help.
Device:
Redmi Note 4 SD
MIUI 8.2.10
Problem:
In-call mic volume is too low/distorted unless you speak very close to the phone. If phone is tilted, other person can hear only a robotic sound coming from space. However, internet calling apps (WhatsApp, FB Messenger, IMO etc.) works quite normal. Voice Recorder and Camera recordings are also quite acceptable.
Failed Solutions:
Re-flashed Stock ROM through fastboot; no difference. Custom ROMs don't resolve the problem either. Tried latest builds of Lineage, PA and RR.
Tried by disabling Google Voice / "OK Google" and denying Mic permission for Google app. Also tried SoundAbout app. Nothing helps.
Editing these files (as guided in 4pda post) improves the quality a little bit: audio_platform_info.xml, media_profiles.xml, mixer_paths_mtp.xml, build.prop.
Conclusion:
Changing "ro.qc.sdk.audio.fluencetype" value to "none" improves the low volume issue but with low quality voice and disturbed speakerphone and earphone volumes.
Updated thread here.
I'm still searching a valid way to record the calls, currently I have the H7 PLK-L01 B380.
First of all, i've tried to enable the stock call recorder of H7 (in EU is disabled due to the privacy policy), i've followed various thread on XDA on how to enable this feature, i've done all steps, but when i try to start a recording, this immediatly stop and giving me an "Unknown Error" message.
Then i've tested the following apps:
- https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.appstar.callrecorder
- https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nll.acr
- https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.toh.callrecord
- https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.boldbeast.recorder (recommended for Huawei devices)
- https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.geekslab.crpro
- https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.skvalex.callrecorder (paid app)
But all of these at maximum record only by internal device MIC (all other recording methods not working), then my voice is clear and loud, but the voice of others have a very very low volume, because that is recorded by MIC that come from ear's speaker.
So, someone know a valid way to record the calls in Both direction (Caller and Called)?

Mmmh but what are the pro and cons of removing EU version and installing CH version?
I get extremely low mic volume when recording voice notes I know this is not an OS or hardware issue because the mic works perfectly on other apps including Instagram or telegram voice notes.
It is so low that I literally have to place the bottom mic on my lips to get a half decent volume recording level. This problem also doesn't exist in the Whatsapp Business app.
A temporary work around I found is to activate another app using the mic like any other voice recorder set actively to recording and then switch to Ehatsapp and record your voice note. Whatsapp support have proved entirely useless with canned responses every time I email them.
Just the normal and beta version of the standard Whatsapp messenger. I'm wondering if anyone else is having this issue.
Hello. I 'm having the same issue since some months ago.
I were not able to find a solution yet. Just received the update 11.2.7.7 but have not tried if this helped to solve the issue or not.
I checked with telegram and realized, the issue was only shown in whatsapp.
I'm yet to receive this update. It should reflect in a few days though. Kindly let me know if this update fixed it
Did you guys find a fix for this?
