Flashed v4a, no issues (after 2nd boot). First boot seemed to be stuck on animation, then it finally went back to twrp. Cleared caches and rebooted normally (still took longer than normal). All processing.

Everything works great but sim card does not ever work why?
help me please
Now I useing this rom https://xdaforums.com/nex...tlies-t3683688 and everything is working, but this rom sim card fo not work ( Does not recognize my device )
if you can help it,
Please dont talk about another ROM in someone else's thread, unless of course they don't mind, normally tho it comes off a bit disrespectful saying 'you use this other ROM now and its working fine.
As far as the potential fix, look at the user above me that responded to you. Also, please start using the search feature BEFORE making a post asking your question, because this issue is something that has been talked about over and over and over in MANY 6p ROM threads.

takes literally seconds to open a few popular 6p threads, click on search, and type in 'sim card not recognized'

Good Day

For SIM not working what worked for me is that I flash stock system.img then I formatted data then booted up then rebooted to recovery flashed ROM and then wala...signal is full. I know that its a lot of work but that's how I soved the issue.

definitive a rom issue: couldnt revive phone display at morning, though the phone was surely on (notification led blinking). as i had this already once with the benzo rom and hard rebooting helped there, i did that and from then ended up in a boot loop or infinite boot. already flashed the rom again, wiped system etc. any way to get back into my old setup as i was expecting several important messages via whatsapp which should have been delivered that night.

Can't get back into the old setup but WhatsApp by default makes a 2am backup every night. Maybe you could recover lost data from there. If the messages came before 2am.

Just flashed this rom.

Thank you for taking the time and sharing with us.

Looks snappy overall, though I've noticed that games have a certain lag.

I've tried 3 games (Star Knight, Dragon Hills 2, and Into the Dead 2) so far and all have intermittent lags.

Anyone else having this issue?

EDIT:
- Just faced a random shutdown. Phone wouldn't power on. Plugged in the charger, after 5 minutes it was on. Battery temperature was down to 28c. could that be a cause?
- Do not disturb switch doesn't show any text. I've enabled it from settings. (No themes applied)


OP, how can I assist so you can look in to these?

Thanks for the ROM, but I wanted to report that after a clean flash that tethering does not work via USB or hotspot. The phone will look like it's tethering and other devices can connect, but it's not actually sharing its internet connection. I've reflashed multiple times and have flashed other ROMs and it's definitely a problem that's isolated to just Benzo (at least for me).

Hi,

Faced the same issue. Had to flash the SuperUbeR-O-R2.15-angler Kernel to fix the tethering and sound issues. Don't know how it'll affect performance/ battery life of the device though. The kernel that came with this ROM kept my phone very cool.

Here's a link to the kernel.
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=817906626617937101

The only major issue I'm still having is the SIM Card not being detected upon reboot. I've flashed the vendor image as well, and my phone is neither encrypted nor did it have any fingerprint/ lock before flashing.

EDIT: USB Tethering works though it causes the PC to hang; the Network parts (tried different PCs as well; Windows 10).

    Benzo Rom Nougat Test Build

    This is just a nightly build. Everything works and it has some features. I don't want to post a "real" build for another few days, but if you wanna try it out until then well here you go. The only bug I can think of is sometimes Titanium Backup force closes when you try and open it. Just keep opening it and it will. Other than that it's good to go. Also
    there is no dialog yet that tells you that it's optimizing apps so just let it sit and it will finish.

    Another note: I slimmed down the Google Apps package so people can install what they want. It still comes with the core apps though and with Assistant. If you clean flash this build with those gapps (and with ThemeReady too if you want) I promise this will be the fastest, smoothest build you have tried on your 6P.

    Also since the kernel is now enforcing BenzoBlock needs a work around for this build as I forgot to test it. Go in BenzoBlock then Preferences, then select the systemless mode box. Then change the target hosts file to /su/etc/hosts. I'll get it fixed for the next build.

    ***Google Apps updated***

    People this is a test build. If things don't work TOO BAD. Save the complaints for the release later on tonight. Also, Google WebView comes stock so don't install other gapps that will also install it(you should be using Benzo Google Apps anyways because that's what I test with) and don't use Google Package Installer if you are having problems with it. When the release comes out I then will care about crashes, problems etc.

    Also for now I suggest using the stock kernel. I put a lot of work into it to make it run smooth with the ROM, but if you are going to use another kernel DO NOT USE A KERNEL THAT ENABLES ENFORCING for now. I'm still working some things out. When I get them worked out my kernel will use enforcing by default.

    So look out for the release later tonight/tomorrow morning. I will also have mirrors to host the files for faster downloads. Thanks for taking the time to read this.
