[Q] phone is strange [root does not install]

Hey all
So basically I'm on revolution kit kat stock ROM and I have twrp recovery therefore root worked well
REGARDLESS to the fact that I can't use supersu to give permissions in my native non-english language
It worked well
Later on, 2 weeks later, phone got crazy it acts like if I'm not rooted at all
When I restart it works but a minute later root dies
What wrong with it??

Flash an already rooted rom instead of a stock one.

leanKernel question. Since I'm new, it wont let me post in the dev thread.

Hi all,
So I want to install leanKernel on my Nexus 6 so I can undervolt it, and I don't know which version to go with.
I have stock Android 5.1.1, and stock kernel.
Which version do I flash? lk_shamu_m-v3.0.zip or lk_shamu_lp-v2.14cm.zip, or lk_shamu_lp-v2.14.zip
I checked the FAQ and it doesn't have the info I am looking for. Moreover 3.0 isn't even mentioned.
I assume CM ys for CyanogenMod? But that still leaves me with 2 options.
Thanks guys!

Hello, you must flash lk_shamu_lp-v2.14.zip (lp stand for lolipop)
lk_shamu_lp-v2.14cm.zip (cm stand for cyanogen mod)
lk_shamu_m-v3.0.zip (the "m" stand for Marshmallow)

Android 6 is M (Marshmallow)
Android 5 is LP (Lollipop)
Android 4 is K (Kitkat)
Since you have 5.11, go with the LP version

Final question. Will it be safe to flash SlimRom over this kernel?

Flashing any rom will likely overwrite the kernel with the one provided in the rom. However you can just reflash your kernel after flashing Slim.

official support of the M7 stopped at android 5.0.2 for Sense version and 5.1 for GPE version.
You'll only find custom rom for Marshmallow and Nougat. I wouldn't recommend Marshmallow roms, they are unstable. Nougat roms work fine when used with the GPE firmware.
Don't forget that you shouldn't create 2 different threads for the same thing (read forum rules).

I hadn't had issues while running custom roms after 5 years.

I assume it's next to impossible to flash the GPE firmware if you're S-ON right?

Return HTC One M7 from google play edition to aosp or sense...

Hello, I hope this is the right section... my girlfriend has an old HTC one m7 which used to be mine and I gave it to her converted to google play edition with Lollipop 5.1, the phone is not rooted.
I did this years ago so I don't remember the specific HTC one procedures (I was coming from a samsung back then) but I converted an unlocked tmobile htc one lte to google play edition.
I'm now looking to update this phone to Nougat, especifically crdroid nougat which is aosp/lineage os-based.
I would also like to know how to return to sense if possible.
What would the steps necessary for this be? Do I have to convert the google play edition back to a normal htc one in order to install aosp roms or sense roms?
Thanks in advance.

Can anyone help?

if your phone is running the latest gpe firmware, simply flash twrp and your aosp rom. You don't want to flash the sense firmware back since the nougat roms work better with the gpe firmware.
