Almost excellent...
But, problem with contacts and Google accounts..
The two seem to be linked.
So you cant sync your google contacts?
Try flash gapps for marshmallow, however you forgot to write that media apps are in chinese and you can not change it, dialer app has chinese features and symbols in it which is annoying too
Damn, this looks good. If we could get google services working and fully English this would be perfect.
Where'd you find it by the way? There may be more hidden treasures around

Does fromFuture offer something special? Except deodexing
Just to give u guys some wee insight as been on both roms lately but currently stuck with fromFuture. That KangRom is awesomness and you can customize plenty of things. This being very close to BlissRoms or many others AOSP base. Chinese aps you can easily uninstall. Chinese text eg. in the dialer you can deactivate in local build.prop by changing the CN country to EN. There's a snazzy working tutorial on Mate 8 forums called Chinese text gone with Yellow Pages. The Rom is sweet. But without google contact sync it is bad and it makes no reason to me to be using it However I didn't try any MM Gapps package though. It's got busybox built in as well as init.d support plus xposed that works with HW themes. If you are gonna flash over the 321a update you will lose Huawei Swype keyboard and get the chinese version, playstore gone. U need to pull up all the aps and place them to microsd and then push them where needed upon having this kangmod installed. Another thing is that you need to reflash SuperUser as this rom comes with KingRoot.
The fromFuture Rom is deodexed, busybox built in, SuperUser built in and is light and fast with more ram available and if you do a full wipe in twrp and flash this it will eat around 1giga and something from internal sd. But it is still an entire stock rom with no additional features. But it doesn't require those tweaks I was talking about re. the KangRom.
Huawei dont let us decompile system apks so its very diffcult to build a custom rom.
It seems kingvip have very good contacts to huawei because he is the only person in the
world who can decompile huawei system files.
Right now im rebuild the kangvip rom to a european rom with googles services and NFC.
My last build booting fine and NFC is working.

Their lollipop version has a ton of stuff including xposed but that's already on XDA.
Their marshmallow seems pretty basic so far though:
Deodexed, Busybox, Init.d support and Call Recorder
EDIT: There's another Spanish forum and nobody is complaining about no google contacts sync on either the German android-hilfe.de thread and Spanish forum which is interesting. It isn't listed as a bug either.

I would be guessing that is because they flashed MM Gapps and it worked but I personally haven't tried that yet. However fromFuture Rom works like a charm and if you wanna go to KangVipRom you can even reflash over the fromFuture and it will work. I will give it a try again to see if reflashing Gapps will do any good.
BTW, this cusrom compatible for UL00?

It's likely because you have all your contacts in. But you will not be able to sync any new. I tried to flash open gapps. The phone booted but having black screen instead of launcher. At this stage I pass this KangVip

Hm ok, never thought any of those had chinese "influence" or however you describe it. Not that it matters for me though but just another one of those unnecessary facts. You learn something every day as they say :good:
Sorry for the slight semi offtopic-ness
@grengo Thanks for bring this roms here , which rom you prefer ?
Anyone tried any ROM?
I tried resurrection rom. it's good.
Hi
How is the resurrection ROM mobile signal,GPS, finger print??? Did you feel it's better than Cynogen??
I'm not feeling any different, GPS not tested.
rom more customization..
I will keep two days after that I'll try carbon rom
Now with a twrp image of zui, I gave it a whirl and my impressions are its quite nice, camera app is good, overall speed and responsiveness is awesome and better than COS. It needs some adjustments here n there but im gonna try and make a tweaked rom out of it without chinese apps and integrate google apps. Had problem with capacitive buttons being disabled and it was only the fingerprint button that worked with swiping, touch and push. Would like to know how to enable those. Wifi wasnt working either for me but I guess you need to flash the whole zui factory image first with qpst for it to work unless someone else has an idea?
I gave lewa OS a try aswell after this but wasnt anything for me, that was just cm12 + a skin ontop basicly so naturally wifi worked since I was originally coming from C.OS
@tndb Wifi is working for me i don't know why it is not working for U...
for on screen button you can edit build.prop file by adding some lines (Google it)
For play store on ZUI download below Play store apk, then open Youtube app it will ask for Google play services download these services..

Hey and thanks for your notes. I still cant get wifi working, tried reflashing but nothing, have you just flashed zui through twrp coming from Cyanogen without flashing zui through qpst first?
Regarding the capacitive buttons, they wont work either. Tried adding qemu.hw.mainkeys=1 to build.prop and also ro.mot.buttonlight.timeout=0 to see if the leds would turn on but they are not working at all. Its only the middle button working.
Ive made a tweaked rom out of the zui twrp package you posted where ive removed a bunch of china apps, changed default language to english and country to US, replaced default launcher with nova launcher, integrated google play, ive also replaced the built-in recovery with breadcrust twrp.
If I could just find out why WIFI aint turning on, the toggle is deactivated and when I press it, its not moving at all. If I restore my twrp Cyanogen OS backup then wifi works just fine again but not at all on Zui. Ive seen this on other phone models when they didnt have the correct modem for example but not sure where id get a suitable one for that (if this even is the problem) and manage to activate the capacitive buttons would also be of great help
Ok had some time over this night and found a solution to get wifi working in zui. Downloaded qpst and flashed zui the official way removing all data on phone and getting all stock factory stuff in there.
Perhaps its the modem file which is the problem? Not sure how to just flash that one separately to find the cause of this issue but could be worth a try

I'd like to know that aswell if there is the same slight Jello Effect while scrolling.
Here is my review.
The most stable and recent official version of H2OS is 3.5.0.
I havnt downloaded or tried this link in OP, however, when I attempted to, the file is same as that from official servers.
Pro:
Fully debloted with google ****
Very light and fast
Oxygen OS launcher + Hydrogen Is Launcher present
OTA Support without the local app ( got an update as soon as I booted)
Cons:
Had difficult time flashing this over Oxygen os via TWRP.
Chinese **** present (all Chinese apps are installed on data partition, easily uninstallable).
No Google play store ( you can install this using google installer or flash Gapps).
To install google play store, I had used google installer; however I faced issues as the google play services never got installed and each time I would see an error that the package is corrupt. So here is what I did.
Used google play installer to install the 1st 2 apps ( google framework and sync manager) installed Google Play store from apkmirror. Worked like charm. Google play installed play services automatically for me.
If anyone needs any help let me know I can guide. And yes prerequisite to flash this ROM.
Remove fingerprints and passwords.
Use Stock recovery (recommended) or TWRP ( You may face bootloops).
SuperSU SR1. for root access.
Before flashing do backup your internal storage (Highly Recommended)
Here is the latest one. Link https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B40UPdMvbjw0bzRtaU9Ua3FoTmc/view?usp=sharing
Official Md5 : 93567CD298ACFCD8959D963C2EFE435B
So... you had OxygenOS installed and WANT to flash the Chinese HydrogenOS? For me, it is the other way around haha. I bought my OP5 in China (I work there) and I actually planned to flash OOS because of the Chinese bloatware. Are you suggesting to keep HydrogenOS and just "debloat" the phone?
Edit*
If I flash my OP5 from HydrogenOS to the newest OOS (4.5.3 from downloads.oneplus.net), do I need to unlock the bootloader first? Or root it? What would be the best order?
As far as I read online, I should
1. Flash the 4.5.3 OTA rom from oneplus download page with ADB.
2. Unlock bootloader
3. Root
Correct?
Thanks a lot, I am a first time Oneplus user and really appreciate any help.
I have been using HydrogenOS from the start since I bought the phone in China, just uninstall a few of the Chinese apps and install the google playstore. I had no issues at all. The battery life is AMAZING. Then I tried OxygenOS last night.. and used it a full day. Just went back to HydrogenOS for better battery life and it just feels snappier. Also I love the idea of no Google apps. Clean.
when ob for 1+5 release ?
Hi,
i am perfectly fine with stock ROM and only one thing i would like to have beside. And it is Google phone app with capability to do search nearby places right from the phone app and the capability to see who actually calling behind unknown number.
I see some apks on apkmirror, but latest nonnexus apk is from 2016. So i rather ask here first. Do you guys tried this app and can confirm it has all the features i would like to have? Is it possible to have this app on our phone?
Do you have link to app for our device?
Thank you

At first, I was saying it's an operator error because it does work. Of course it doesn't work for Oreo it clearly states the date when I pulled the framework in May. The OP was asking to use an updated dialer in stock. I provided him the framework with the ability to do so.... I wouldn't specify why because I was answering the OP.

same procedure as non rooted devices, Install as normal apk
I can confirm that it works on Moto G5 Plus (Sanders), stock rom, rooted with Magisk. Installed the dialer framework from the post by @atrac17 above, then phone apk (v.11) from here. (Play Market installation was still showing as unavailable for my device.) Then all I needed to do was to change the default phone app to google phone rather than Moto. Thanks for your help, guys. Couldn't figure it out by myself.
So freaking annoying we have to do this!.. Why on earth do we need Moto's dialer?!

It's only been tested on US998 ROMs. There's nothing specifically in it for stock ROMs but I haven't used a 9.0 rom. Like how files moved locations from nougat to Oreo, something similar might have happened with pie
There will likely be conflicts if you have either installed via magisks. If you want the other parts of my mod just edit it.

It's the stock Google dialer in the mod. It's better to just edit the preferences in data/data so you can still use all the features like spam stuff.
YouTube Vanced will work with only the official mod or mine. The official one just has more code to determine arm Vs arm 64 vs x86 etc. There's no apk difference.

The dual speaker mod is essentially the same as the one whiskey something made. I just compared his files to the stock one on US998 and made edits. To ensure it worked with us998
I can't guarantee there being non issues with a non stock based kernel. There's support for overclocking in the scripting as well as underclock. But I haven't been on an aosp rom since I had the One M8.

That doesn't make sense. A magisk module is just a zip archive. Extract it like a normal zip. Read over the magisk developer threads to understand how everything works. It's user friendly in my opinion. For basic app adding, removing, file changing all you do is place them in the system folder in the same location they'd be in the rom.
This should help.

I'd rather other people learn how to do what you just did on their own. Though there's one line of code that may sometimes completely erase the YouTube folder. You really should read the support documentation for magisk. It's very straight forward. The issue is that you had two modules trying to replace the YouTube folder. The mounting of two modules into one location is why YouTube disappeared. Not a bug. It's user error. Lol

Ahhh okay lol I will give it a read, maybe I'll come up with something...
Small update. No noticable difference on the users end. I probably won't post for every update, but I'll update the title of the thread everytime I do.

I flashed the original and I don't see another version of YouTube installed and the one I do have has ads. What am I missing?

See if you have updates to YouTube installed and uninstall them. You can't have any updates over YouTube Vanced because then the modified version won't be loaded. The newer version will

Thank you, that worked. I went to Google Play and "uninstalled" it and it just left the Vanced version. This phone comes with YouTube already installed, so "uninstalling" it just uninstalled the updates -- which then left the stock app which was already overwritten by Vanced.
G'day
I'm sick of google and everything they are about. Don't be evil my arse. I already do the simple stuff like using brave browser and duck duck go search. I'm hoping someone can advise me on how to strip my phone of as much google as possible and replace with aosp alternatives. Or even just point me towards some guides on it.
I am using a Samsung galaxy a22 5g rooted with magisk stock rom.
Thanks
I think you might want to flash a custom ROM, then use something like MicroG Magisk, NanoDroid or FOSSApps. Ungoogling an already Googled stock ROM might be more pain than flashing something community developed.
I'm currently running Lineage with Magisk GApps (so I can remove them anytime) and I'm slowly getting ready for the transition. So I'm also looking for more information.
I set up a VPS for myself (might be an overkill for you, but inspiration nonethelss) and I'm hosting OnlyOFFICE Community there and using their apps, I also host my own BitWarden password storage and a mail server (was kinda pain to set it up with all the methods for spam verification). This way some of my most sensitive data is kept on an encrypted drive on a server I myself control.
Then there's getting apps which are mainly available through Google Play - I found that uptodown does host apks, but that's far from an actually viable option (considering you really have to trust them when you're downloading apps there). Alternative stores providing the same apps as Google Play are always kinda worrying to use & trust.
So that's my two cents worth and a starting point, I'll also gladly accept some tips & tricks to accomplish this entirely, it's a long-lasting dream to leave Google altogether.

i think it's better to use a custom aosp rom with no gapps
if you still want stock rom :
make a recovery backup of "system" just in case
mount system
the folders that have apps are :
system/app
system/priv-app
system/product/app
system/product/priv-app
(if you use A11+ check also system-ext/app and priv-app)
delete anyhing related to google
if you don't want to delete use lucky patcher or titanium backup to freez them
if you choose freezing, make a recovery backup of "data"

Hey thanks for the reply and info. Flashing an aosp custom rom would be my usual go to. However I've been on an oppo with unlockable bootlader for last 18 months and now I got this samsung I find there is zero rom dev on this phone. The only options I can find are GSI which is a new concept to me and I'm a little uncertain about going that route.

Cheers for this. Agree on the first statement but having been on an oppo with unlockable bootlader for last 18 months and now I got this samsung I find there is zero rom dev on this phone. The only options I can find are GSI which is a new concept to me and I'm a little uncertain about going that route.
Do you think I should go with a GSI rom? If safe and stable I'm happy to do the research because I'd love to get a custom aosp rom going on this.
Afaik this samsung can't even access fastboot gotta use the Samsung flashing software instead and the only thread on twrp for this phone is experimental and doesn't seem to be confirmed as working by anyone.
Hence why so far I've stuck with stock and magisk
I used to flash heaps of roms and kernels on older devices but this whole GSI thing is new to me. If it's dicey I'll go the TB route with the folders you pointed me to. Cheers

if yo can backup system/vendor/boot/dtbo/data then go for it
if not , you will have to reflash the stock if anything goes wrong ...

looks like your options are risky , google the app name before freezing ...
don't freez :
"google Extservice" or something like that
"settingintelligencegoogle" and "modulemetadatagoogle"

Cool cheers for your help mate. Touche on the last point. New job with nice pay bump coming so that will be the go I think.
I use Graphene OS on my Pixel 6 and CalyXOS on the 4a. Both are very good degoogled ROMs.
I built a Magisk module for this some time ago. However, it's very likely that it won't work anymore and will probably cause a bootloop. I'm only posting it in case someone wants to use the repo as inspiration.

you forgot to mention that both GrapheneOS and CalyXOS are available ONLY for the Pixel phones
and the Pixels have a unique feature - the bootloader can be locked back AFTER flashing a custom ROM
Well I stand corrected ( said the man in the orthopaedic shoes)
want de-google? buy and iphone and done
