  • Latest vendor.img from Google*

  2. Reboot into TWRP
  3. Make backup (optional)
  4. Wipe Data/Cache/System and Factory reset (if coming from another ROM)
  5. Wipe Cache (if updating from a previous build of SiriusAOSP)

Since the 6P is already on an AOSP rom, is there really any reason to flash a custom rom? I'm thinking of flashing a custom rom but I don't understand why it's advantageous when you already have an AOSP stock rom.

Stock Google is not at all stock AOSP, though it's the closest thing to AOSP out of the box...that stated, the similitudes are far more than their differences...but they are most definitely not the same.

AOSP is the open source repository to which Google and a number of other handset manufacturers contribute code, and from which all in turn avail.

But make no mistake, this device ships with proprietary software.

apparently you don't understand the difference between Google factory image and AOSP builds
And yet you provided nothing but sarcasm...without a hint of humor.

I see no need to post comments such as this to a fellow forum member, irrespective of how his or her words irritate.

I couldn't get past setup.. I think it said something about Google services crashing. I used pure Nexus gapps.

Add the Issue Tracker link in the OP. There you can view current and resolved issues. Also I can confirm that there is a GApps issue...It should be fixed in today's/tomorrow's update.

OK.my bad in regards to understanding that. But my question still stands - what advantages are there to installing a custom rom with pretty good software out of the box?
