| Component | Specification | Impact on Custom ROMs | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | | MediaTek Helio G99 (MT6789) | High difficulty. MediaTek provides minimal public documentation. Requires proprietary libmtk blobs. | | Display | 1080x2400 pOLED, 120Hz | Moderately difficult. Panel refresh rate switching often breaks on non-stock kernels. | | Audio | Standard 3.5mm jack + USB-C | Moderate. Audio routing (headset vs. speaker) frequently breaks in early GSIs. | | Camera | 108MP main (Samsung HM6) | Major challenge. Hal3 and camera HAL adaptations are proprietary. GSIs often limit camera to basic functionality (no 108MP, no ultrawide). | | Storage | UFS 2.2 | Low impact. Standard support in GSI. |
Note: The availability of ROMs changes rapidly. The Moto G72 uses the MediaTek Helio G99 chipset. While powerful, MediaTek devices have historically been harder to develop for than Snapdragon variants, meaning the ROM selection may be more limited compared to a Snapdragon-equivalent device. Motorola G72 Custom Rom
If you plan to experiment with GSIs on your Moto G72, you must follow these essential steps: | Component | Specification | Impact on Custom
The Motorola G72, codenamed "vicky," presents a unique challenge for the custom ROM community due to its MediaTek Helio G99 SoC | | Display | 1080x2400 pOLED, 120Hz | Moderately difficult
: Some users have observed improved battery longevity, reaching up to 1.5 days of normal usage even with AOD enabled. Compromises : Using a GSI often comes with "bugs," such as the in-display fingerprint scanner
