Hey, i downloaded [ROM][UNOFFICAL][6.0.1]Resurrection Remix OS[5.7.0] onto my Honor 5x KIW-L21 and i seem to not be able to use the camera roll option which prevents me from using the back camera.
P.S. The roll feature works fine on other apps like Snapchat which i thought was pretty strange, just the standard camera that aint functioning properly.
Has anybody got any information of why this is and even better a fix?
Thanks

I don't find any fix right now, I suggest you to install another camera app
Maybe ask the developer, the camera app might be corrupted.
I have a uhappy up580 mtk6580 5.1 phone, been using a self ported RRemix 5.1.1 for ages as there are no better, newer ROMs available but miss the FM radio, GPS and full camera support from stock.
For some reason the stock ROM has terrible wifi, it can take 30 seconds to open a link or to update my facebook feed or similar, it isnt app specific as all apps work fine on self ported customs ROMs .
Obviously this seems weird as I assumed if anything, there would be problems on the custom roms, all the hardware is the same and I assumed all drivers and settings would be fine as I ported the roms FROM my stock rom.
Can anyone offer any sort of solution to this issue? Be it a 'wifi fixer' app or script, or something I need to add or takeaway from stock/to stock?
I'm currently using custom rom backup when I'm more likely to be inside, dont need a perfect camera, GPS or radio and then restore the stock ROM if I'm going to be outside more, which isnt ideal.
Any help appreciated
Also, if anyone knows the correct files to get FROM my stock rom to the custom rom to get GPS/location working, that would be great too.
And also the files to get the camera to auto-focus, works as a camera but no focus at all.
After a bit of trial and error, It seems that a freshly flashed stock rom DOES have the same wifi speed as a custom rom but over the course of a day the wifi internet starts going really slow, to almost unusable. This happens in opera mini, lightning, FBlite and even the play store.
Almost as if the internet is being 'clogged up' with 'stuff'
Is there such a thing as an INTERNET CACHE CLEANER or something that may help? Or ANYTHING that I can do or try?
Hi everyone,
It's a brand new phone (arrived yesterday) and I'm upset immensely.
Physical capacitive navigation buttons sometimes miss up to 5 touches in a row. You click them and nothing happens.
I have a suspicion that it's due to LineageOS that I installed right after buying the phone but I've got a feeling that a stock firmware had the same issue.
This phone has a thick protection film (factory installed) but the main screen receives all the touches without any problems - only the capacitive buttons work poorly.
Should I install the factory firmware back? I don't want to remove the protection film because it's very sturdy and nice.
Has anyone experienced this issue?
Common sense would say remove the film and try without before concluding they are faulty.
The factory installed screen protector is real flexible, they pull up easy and go back on easy. You could try lifting it at the bottom and then trying the buttons to see if it makes any difference. If you do it slow you can bow the screen protector to a 90 degree angle without unseating the top half.
I've figured out it's actually a lag in LineageOS. The ROM wants me to slow down - IOW when I let the OS finish drawing, all the touches are registered just fine.
This is absolutely confusing since my Nexus 5 with a two times slower CPU and four times slower GPU never missed a single press, while LineageOS misses way too many presses.
I wonder if this issue affects the stock ROM as well and other ROMs for that matter.
The best way to reproduce this issue is to have several apps running then pressing these buttons in a quick succession:
"Recent Apps" -> "Home"
"Recent Apps" -> "Home"
"Recent Apps" -> "Home"
"Recent Apps" -> "Home"
"Recent Apps" : totally ignored
Then even when I have the settings app running sometimes the "Back" button doesn't work at all: open the settings app, then quickly press "Security" and the "Back" button immediately after it will not register (100% reproducible). If you press "Security" then pause for a second, then the Back button works.
IOW it's lags and lags only. Now I wonder if it's a LineageOS bug or something is wrong with my device.

Not had that issue on my x829 on any rom I have used. Always instant including on Los.
I'm going to record a video and show it to you. Hold on.
I suggest you install stock rom and try that and without the film. May have even been a bad flash?
What's the meaning of "bad" flash? I wiped everything except user data, I cleaned installed LineageOS 20170409 with zero mods or extra zips aside from gapps. It's as clean as possible.
Here's the video:
No need for video as we believe you lol. Just mean it did not install correctly etc. If you never even tried the phone in stock form you have no idea if it was there from the start etc.
I found Los had too many bugs for me and it got hot so never tried again. My phone also did not come with any screen protector just the film it has on from new.
It could be an hardware fault and installing a stock rom should tell you.
I'm afraid of installing stock for a couple of reasons:
1) I've got a X829 hw which doesn't have an official ROM available anywhere on the internet and I didn't know I should have dumped it prior to flashing LOS.
2) I've heard stories that TWRP may brick your device if you update from a custom ROM to a stock ROM. I cannot find a manual how to get to stock after flashing a custom ROM.
3) Since there's no X829 ROM available, I'm not sure which one I should install - Indian or Chinese, and if they are 100% compatible with my hardware.

I'm pretty sure WIPE actually wipes everything (and I did wipe everything) so there's no way to mis-flash LOS.
All roms are compatible on x829 and can confirm as tried them all. Currently on 23s Chinese. You can install from twrp and no need to rename it. Need to boot straight back to twrp after installing stock or stock recovery gets installed which has happened to me twice but easy to re install twrp.
No issue going from stock to custom and back as I have done it many times until I settled on stock Chinese as its got least bugs of em all.
It's not an isolated issue: people are having it too: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=71452126&postcount=83
I've just flashed boot.img from lineage-13.0-20170225 and the system feels a lot snappier than before, however some touches are still not registered. It's all kinda unpleasant because when I was buying this phone I was hoping that custom ROMs are as good as the original Nexus 5 firmware, but it's clearly not the case. There are very rough edges all around.
Custom roms on these will never be as good as on a nexus as nexus official roms get fixes quickly but you don't from Le eco.
ResurrectionRemix-M-v5.7.4-20170329-x2.zip is free from this issue but I don't like this ROM for other reasons (built in ... Russia; no OTA updates; has tons of dubious features, like root access; it's old - security update from January 1st, 2017; various things are missing as if someone hacked it from another ROM and forget to add the necessary strings). Damn, I really don't want to use the Chinese ROM and it seems like with LeEco Le Max2 it's either the Chinese ROM or have bugs and lags.
Edit: please tell me how exactly should I flash the stock ROM back?
Wipe everything as usual and then install the zip with TWRP? That's it? No hidden pitfalls or anything? I don't want to brick my device.

Yes install just like you said above. Just need to either download play store from Le store or download apk online like I did. I just google latest. Don't try and flash gapps as it don't work.
I have the same touch problem.

Hi y'all,
Should be receiving my X829 from Banggood tomorrow, and trying to figure out what to do re: firmware. I'm a bit wary of the custom roms since it seems like each rom has its share of serious issues. I was going to go with small EUI, but apparently it now has bootloop problems?
Anyway, in the absence of a reliable custom rom, all I really want to do is a debloat of any spyware (including here apps that upload "market research data"). Are there any debloating guides floating around?
I've read that EUI has fine grained control of app permissions. Does this include being able to restrict app internet access, and does this control extend to the LeEco apps and other bloatware installed on the phone by default?
I have not seen a good debloat guide but I'm sure your x829 is going to come with some sort of vendor ROM already ( US? ) .
I just wanted to comment on the stability of all the LOS 13, AOKP, and RR builds ( MM ), I would say are all stable and ready for every day use. Some of the N builds are excellent and just waiting for LeEco to release N . :good:

My impression was that even if they are stable, they are missing some substantial functionality? VoLTE seems to be a problem for most roms (though it's fixed in some), none of the Nougat roms seem to have the cameras working (a significant issue that would prevent me from considering such roms functional, let alone excellent), and (all?) of the non-EUI based roms require the use of a certain camera app to get camera functionality?
I'd very much like to be informed I'm wrong haha!

There is a VoLTE patch floating around, my carrier doesn't support it so I haven't used it.... The camera issues have been solved in most MM builds, but not N builds. The FooteJ camera app work around was just a temp way around the problem that persisted, but now I use it in place of stock because I liked it so much
My suggestion is to try them. Super easy to unlock/root/add custom recovery, Especially if your looking for a smooth clean OS.
EUI is packed with bloat and ad on , I don't like it.
There are 6 apps on chinese 23s rom. I don't use them and they don't cause any issues. They are in my app draw as I use nova launcher so don't see them.
I tried most of custom roms but find stock more stable and it works OK apart from Gmail notification but I use BlueMail from playstore which works perfect. No real need to de bloat to be honest.

So I got my Banggood X829. As far as I can tell, there are no chinese apps, and only two leeco apps: LIVE and My LeEco. All the GApps are there as the default. Everything worked out of the box, so I've just decided to restrict the permissions of the LeEco apps, and installed Nova.
The launcher was bad (no app drawer!, ughh), but the other aspects of EUI are pretty nice. In particular, the the app switching button on default Android is an incredible waste of space that's hard to navigate through. The way it's implemented in EUI is both more user friendly, and putting media and settings shortcuts there is a more efficient use of space than stock.
I imagine there'll be no OTA updates, so I think I'll just stick with stock EUI until someone gets a Nougat ROM with the camera working.
Won't be any updates on that vendor rom if same as mine from Banggood. The updater app was removed on mine. Got rid of it for a newer stock rom immediately.
Hey.
This has been happening for a while, at first with Lineage OS (the last Oreo build before they stopped development), my phone had random shutdowns, GCam lagged a ton, demanding apps like Games or Photo editors (Cytus 2 or Snapseed for example) just didn't work right, they froze for a full 5 seconds, Social Network apps didn't work right either, I had to use Lite versions of their apps to make it less stressful to use.
I got back to MIUI but with Xiaomi.eu's ROM and I loved it, but it had some problems too, and I really hated that I wasn't able to experience newer androids, and I missed GCam a lot, so I went and Installed Pixel Experience, and it was laggy too, nearly unusable in every situation, it freezes at most of the apps I tried and it didn't work really well. Finally, I'm with Havoc OS, and I love it, but is UNUSABLE outside of a Wi-Fi network, when outside it doesn't just lags, it freezes, does random reboots, and also my headphone jack doesn't work so I can't even listen to music while having the phone on my pocket, it just does a blank noise when tapping some buttons.
I'm sick of my phone being too slow with every custom rom that I install, and I don't know if I'm doing something wrong, of I have some strange firmware or whatever it is, I don't know.
I have TWRP updated, I installed every rom on a clean state, wiping everything.
My phone is a kenzo 2GB variant.
Please help me, I really want to listen to music while browsing Instagram again, now I can't even do one of these things..

try LiquidRemix or go back to Oreo Rom
Hey mate. Try this Lineage OS 14 https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/development/rom-lineage-os-t3877377/
I also have 2GB variant of RN3Pro and I also tried so many roms that promise speed. But to be honest everything past Nougat is unusable. The combination of Google service eating tons of rams and the OS itself taking more space in your ram ended up costing a lot of performance.
That Lineage OS 14 is the current best for me, it supported a lot of new features (splitscreen, better GCam) while remains low in RAM usage. Good SOT too, still managed to squeze 5+ hours of SOT (but that's probably because my Radon kernel setting).

Pie getting 6+ of SOT very easily. I m using Crdroid with shadow. Now dev has provided xcrima and shadow kernel with default enabled 500mb + zram for 2gb ram. So its relief.
I was having the same issue, every rom didn't had a near good experience of use for me, so I started searching and I've found microg, which is an alternative for google apps, but using much less ram.
So what I did was installing nanodroid-microg, and one of the stores that comes with the package(in my case, Yalp Store, but according to their wiki, you can install google playstore also.), Now I have about 1gb ram free (I'm also using AppOps to block some app permissions like wake lock, run in background etc.), but I had some problems so I will show you what I did to install it and make it fully work.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/module-nanomod-5-0-20170405-microg-t3584928
Firstly you have to download two of their stable release packages, one is nanodroid-setupwizard and the other is the nanodroid-microg.
Then you will flash the rom you want, the kernel you want, magisk and finally both packages, first the setupwizard, then the microg package.
There's no secret when flashing setupwizard, it's a aroma package which will give you steps to choose what you want to install, I remember choosing swype libraries, microg (of course), Yalp Store (with fakestore), Google Map API and UnifiedNlp location backends (Mozilla and Deja'vu)
After that, just flash nanodroid-microg and then follow the tuturial below starting from step 15
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/guide-microg-oneplus-6-source-ligthway-t3874469
Obs: at step 25: if your push notification tester app show you a error related to incompatibility or unavailability of google play services, you probably need to enable signature spoofing on FakeStore like I had to, I'm using aex 7.1 rom so I don't know if the steps will be the same for you but what I did was: go to settings > apps > tap setting button on the top right corner > app permission > signature spoofing > tap three dots on the top right corner > show system > then enable FakeStore. After that try step 25 again and proceed.
I hope it helps you or anybody reading this which choose to install it. Enjoy and I'm sorry for any grammar mistakes.
Your best bet at speed is an old nougat ROM and a swap memory. Format ur internal storage before flashing.
I've installed aosp pie on 3gb and it's very good. Maybe 1gb ram does make a big difference. Choose light os like lineage or Nexus

If you want to stay on pie. Try ArrowOs pie. It's the most smooth pie ROM I found for my 2gb rn3p. However the ROM is no longer being updated.
