Need help flashing AICP ROM

[smokarz]

Hey guys, can I get some help flashing the AICP ROM?

I am currently on Stock ROM. Can I just go into TWRP and flash ROM, Gapps, Reboot? Or do I need to do something more before that?

Attached is a screenshot of the phone's software/build.

Also, which gapps version are you guys flashing? Arm64 platform? Android 6 version? Which variant?

Thanks much!

Image attachments on XDA have been questionable recently, using imgur or similar service and embedding the link always works though.

AICP, or any other ROM, is fairly simple to flash on the Moto X... copy the ROM and Gapps ZIP to your SD card, reboot into TWRP, BACKUP YOUR EXISTING ROM TO SD CARD, then go to Wipes-Advanced and select system, caches (both), data, and for a clean flash wipe internal storage too (if you don't have an SD card, don't wipe internal storage) and swipe to wipe, when it is completed go home and Install the ROM zip first, then the Gapps ZIP, reboot and wait... first boot can take what seems like forever, as long as it gets past the Moto M logo and doesn't loop, just let it sit and be patient.

Thanks for the reply.

I am currently on Stock 5.1 ROM. Do I need to update to Marshmallow first or do anything else before flashing the latest AICP ROM?

Also, which Gapps version should I use with the AICP Rom? There are so many variants to choose from.

I am am attaching image link, hope this works.

Twrp -> Advance wipe (excluding sd card) -> Then flash the rom -> flash gapps (Arm 64 and android version 7.1.1 as per aicp latest ) its upto you which one u want to choose i prefer nano -> reboot

This is all you need to do

Actually... I would upgrade to latest stock firmware via fastboot first. Eliminate possible radio issues

Did those steps. Everything seems to be working fine.

I'll post if I run into any issues.

Now, is there anyway to remove Google contacts from my phone?

It is annoying that it pulls in contacts information from anyone I've ever communicated/emailed with once I set up my Gmail account.

Ok..I have a problem.

I had about 20GB worth of photos and videos on SD card, but I can no longer see them on the card.

And it's still showing me that there's 20GB of my 60GB card is being used, so I know they are there somewhere, but I just can't see them.

Where are they?

And NO, I did not wiped SD card during installation.

Heck, I don't even see my back up ROM in there.

Use Solid Explorer or something similar and look
