Hi Sprint M7wls forums
I have been trying to work on a rom for this device for some time now, and I think I may do pretty good
Since I updated I want to keep lollipop on my phone for a few days, so I need some beta testers to make sure that my deodex proses worked.
Disclaimer
This is android version 4.4.3 with sense version 6 not lollipop.
this has also been untested by me so I don't know what it will do.
Anyone who would like to test please pm me, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks
Can you give more information on the ROM like kernel ,tweaks that are added ,is it stock, I'm willing to test, is it compiled by your or source

While discussing this custom rom in other roms' threads, I came across one for the MB886 with CN localization.
I was able to download it and flashed. But before doing so, looked at the archive and noticed it had a /data directory with suspicious apps in it. So I wouldn't really recommend anyone actually flashing it for use until someone with knowledge took a look at it.
Interestingly enough, it does flash and seems to be working, I cleared data/wiped before booting it.. Take note that it's is not officially supported by slimkat nor is it available on their site.
EDIT: We have a working rom now thanks to Technofreak, check it out here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=49622265
I finished compiling it to see how it goes. Will post ROM if is good.

WAREZ/malware linked, DELETED.
Mobile Data is not even working for me. Yes it does have trojans and I woudnt download this rom. Did Data worked for you when you installed this crap? Ok I went Further guys this is actually a build for xt907 devices and NOT mb886.
Please delete the Links to this Chinese Rom from this forum and from the Cyan thread. THis Rom Contains Applications that require payments from the Google Play and its Developers. It contains apps like
Android Tweaker PRO
Root Explorer
NexMusic +/Plus
and others
Ok to my Fellow forum friend @clockcycle and others wanting this ROM I have made an Modified version out of this Chinese Rom which works 100% without any lag and is working great. I will make a thread for this one and there is also and right now is the one I use as it looks lots as Validus without much Clowns as @skeevydude like it. lol
Seen very solid to me and is my and will be my daily drive (For now) lol
Also there is one I compile together but since time limits I havent been able to test it. This one should have more options and few then other fixes to options that came after my Modified version
Will explain more at the Developers thread

Yea I was really surprised to how lite "SLIM" the CN version of the rom was. But didn't trust to install gapps, login or install any apps. I also wiped /data after first flash before the boot. Downloading your version right now.
Hi guys i saw today the new Android l . is there any chance that our LG support it
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA Free mobile app
Really?!?! Android L was ANNOUNCED today!!!!! Take a break and have a kitkat :cyclops:
I think his name will be lolipop or something like this
no way that we will have android L. It's too much devs are working hard on kitkat and it is not even stable so I think there wil be no Lollipop. Or maybe an alpha build by someone but no stable for daily use
we could make a community version, where everyone works together to get a rom which is ****ing every other rom. not based on aospa or cm. A real own rom, only for our loved p990
This is good question, why this last two or more years build new rom on cm and aosp base when they know about bug and this bug is in every new version.
I think is time that someone who know how, build new rom from begining and not from base with known bugs.
If we use for build house brocken brick and house will colapse and then again use broken brick, house will colaps again and the same is with rom.
If you use over and over again base with bugs, they will be always present in every new rom.
IMHO we need fresh start for new rom and only then is possibility that rom will work with no bugs.

Why don't you do it yourself?
The title says it all. Is anybody interested in a Stock GPE Build for the Sprint S4? The purpose of this build would be a Stock GPE ROM with changes only needed to make it function correctly.
Basically, Keeping it as close as possible to stock GPE for the device with the exception of root/supersu and busybox.
The reason for this would be so dirty flashes work better and be somewhat supported and tested.
Danvdh's GPE build is awesome with many features however there is people like me that need a somewhat stable phone and don't feel like re-building and wiping the phone every time for a new flash.
Let me know what you think.
I think it would definitely be a good idea. Everyone has different needs and as you can see from reading the threads, it seems each phone acts differently on each of these Roms. Thank you for taking time to work on it if you do. If you need someone to test to see if your work causes a phone to glow in the dark, let me know!

Ahhhh was wondering why dirty flash wasn't working. I'm gonna go with Yes! but it's honestly not much of a hassle either way.
As long as I can get voice-mail.

Go for it just as long data,voice, sms and mms work and it does say sprint not digital roam or no service or insert sim
As long as everything works and there aren't any crapola CM add-ons, I'm in for a try.

Thanks you made me laugh with that comment.

No, it doesn't. That rom has been modded to hell and back and has nore issues with each release (which usually requires a complete wipe to even function). The OP of this thread is asking if we are interested in a more closely stock, more stable GPE rom without the mods and CM junk.
Would be nice if there was a actual source of the GPE I have a pure stock aosp build for jflte but its kk no mods no CM crap
Hey guys sadly this idea will have to be placed on hold for now. Somewhat busy with life. Sorry
I have one and love it. Do not know if voicemail works though...
Hello there,
I am using a google nexus 6. I am on nougat 7.1.1. But from the October security patch my phone is too slow. And now i got an idea to change to custom rom. I want to know which is best.. Stock Rom or Custom Rom? If Custom Rom which one you prefer? Please help me to find a good one.
Thanks!
can you read ?

@pinkfloyd3: Your response was needlessly harsh, not to mention it being borderline flaming. All you really needed to do is report the post and the moderators would have moved it. So keep that in mind in the future, capisci?

There are no more official updates to the Nexus 6, so if you wish to upgrade the device further you will have little choice but to use a custom ROM. As for what ROM is best for you, that's a question we can't answer. The only thing we can tell you is to try them out to see which one is best for you. Now, as to what custom ROMs we prefer, let's rephrase your question so it reads, "If Custom Rom which one do you use?" as that is what you are actually asking. The responses you get will inevitably fall along the lines of "I use ROM X" anyway.
For example, I use Pure Nexus. It's not Android 8 although the developer has been working on an Android 8 version. However it has the right balance of features for me; it's not stuffed to the gills with features but isn't stock either. Naturally there are Android 8 ROMs out there, and right now the closest to Pure Nexus in having that balance of features is Validus. Even though Validus is officially still in beta it was a very stable ROM when I tried it out. So take a look at the ROMs available, try them out, and choose the one that fits best to you.

ok i apologize from both of you
@achchu93
In my opinion :
7.1.2 : PN (Pure Nexus)
8: currently sixrom v2.1 good for me !
sourcebuilt oreo rom : more stable
GZR Validus : not use it now if your phone is encryption ! you lose all you data
this is my opinion It may not be right
sorry for my bad english
@pinkfloyd3 : I am really sorry. I am not well experienced in this thread stuffs. I was in a curious to upgrade my phone. Thats why i posted here. Sorry if it bothers you.

Thanks alot for your reply. I tried Pure Nexus with Franco kernel. You know both of them impressed me in a great way. after flashing franco kernal my phone is working like a jet. Really happy with this custom rom and kernal.
But still i see lot of people supporting dark rom. It is customized version of Lineage OS right? What do you think about that?
LineageOS is "lipstick on a pig" (look it up). They used Cyanogenmod as a base instead of starting over, meaning they used a base full of untested code. Because of that, it doesn't touch my devices.
The LineageOS devs should have started from scratch. It would have taken longer to get up and running, but the code would be clean and tested.
Well, if you want to keep yourself updated with the latest security patches (and probably features as well) then for this ageing phone, a custom ROM is better than stock all day long.
I'm using Dirty Unicorns 11.7.2, since is most up to date and very stable. PN is a good choice as well.
Hello everyone!! my team and i have been working on a different type of rom for the Z family to maximize the total experience.
the world best modular phone deserves the best OS we can offer so we figured why rewrite the wheel we used a slightly modded kernel version of Los 15.1 and ubuntu 16.04 into a new operating system. the old/dying project Maru is coming back in this way, and better than ever.
if you guys are interested we would like to share the rom once it is ready for RC1, well let me know what you think and we just might make this new rom public very soon.

just a little bit of what this looks like
Unleashing
This seems like one of the only ways to unleash the power of the mods since google and Motorola wont allow the community to get the code for the mods. If you need someone to do nightly compiles, I will happily help.
Wow, this is great! I’ve been locked down with Verizon, running a stock Moto Z. Love the mods but miss playing with Roms. I bought a Z2 Force but still on VZ. I bought a Sprint Z2 Force last month and unlocked the boot loader and rooted the phone. I haven’t flashed any Roms yet, I just waiting for the right one to come along. I’m not a developer but have flashed Roms since the First Moto Droid. I’ll be happy to give feedback. My Sprint is not my main phone, its just for play. I do want to unlock the sim in a month and bring the phone over to my Verizon account.
Not a Dev but been rooting and modding since htc Evo and original Xbox. Would love to help in any way possible.
ok so i only have a Z2 as of now in the Z family what i would like to know is what apps do you wish came built into a custom rom the you have found useful while on a custom rom? the goal is to become stable asap and we are seemingly stable now but we really want to polish this up.
we have a few more phone we are getting ready to start build for too but this phone is the main focus right now we have one of the devs on the team running this on the international s9. if todays build is ready for prime time we will post it asap but we are trying to get the install instructions done since it is a little work after the install.

It's not the same it works like maru but runs Los 15.1 not stock Android like maru and is on Ubuntu 16.04 not Debian. This room work the same but is a little different.
We made more progress last night. Hoping that we will have all the bugs worked out after today's report sync.
the command center widget that displays both the Moto mod battery and the phones battery
Hopefully u can make it so u don't have to log in to your G account to do the initial startup. And I 2nd apps needed r a good file explorer and maybe an alternative market like ACC or mobolism.
Any update on the development? Would really like to give this ROM a shot!
Anything new?
so quick update:
this is an unofficial build of maru os and if anyone is willing to help with development i would greatly appreciate the help. i am stuck at this moment since the guys i was working with are very busy at this moment. if you are serious about helping this progress to a stable build i can get you access to my build server to get this up and running once more. my phone is the one and only as of now and i have been enjoying it very much testing all the possibilities with external hardware. Devs please dm me tester will be selected once the builds are ready for single zip installs.
