Hi guys!
Just a quick question - do I need to bother with a custom ROM on a rooted Oneplus 5? Or I can achieve all the modifications using additional apps with root access?
And if so, which custom ROM brings the most atop the already rich customisation options of OP5?
Thanks
You can do a lot of modifications with root using third-party apps such as substratum, xposed, etc.
Yes, with a custom rom you can make many more changes, I recommend you resurrection remix.
Thanks a lot for your opinion!
How does the Resurrection compare to LineageOS? I'm quite confused about all the options
Lineage OS could be said to be a kind of AOSP with minor modifications. From lineage os, developers create their own roms based on it, usually, there are exceptions. Resurrection Remix has taken the best of these roms: "CM team, Lineage, DU, AICP, OMNI team, SLIMROMS", thus allowing the user from a menu in settings to make a lot of changes. I do not know if I explained well.

I just got my Moto G4 Play and now I'm looking for a good ROM to start with. I guess this question has been asked a million times and I apologize for unoriginal content.
I've been looking around and I think I'm interested in:
AOSP Extended
crDroid
Zephyr OS
AOKP
Dirty Unicorns
Resurrection Remix
Unfortunately, I have no idea about the general differences. Ideally, the ROM would support signature spoofing. Themes would also be nice. AFAIK, that leaves me with AOSP Extended and crDroid. Could someone highlight the main differences of these ROMs?
Also, how do the ROMs compare in General, what makes them different from one another? And what's the difference between AOKP and Dirty Unicorns - I hear DU forked AOKP, right?
Thanks in advance and please don't be too mean if the questions are stupid!
I'm not going to get into detail since I'm new to ROMs and stuff, but I'm using Resurrection Remix and I LOVE it?
I've been using crDroid with microG on my G4 Play as it was the first ROM available with signature spoofing. It is reasonably stable, no issue using it as your "daily driver".
AOSP Extended only recently added signature spoofing. I have considered trying it as I don't need all of crDroid's bells and whistles, but haven't yet done so. If you try AOSP Extended I would like to hear you opinion of it.
I have installed AOSP Extended but not really used it so far except for playing with some settings. So far, I have had no real problems except setting up microG correctly. I will try to do this correctly today and then tell you about my success.
For now, it runs smoothly and is really snappy.
Hey, recently came from an outdated OPX, and just wanted to see how much of that functionality I can replicate on the OP5.
For example, I've heard CM is kinda dead, so that's out the door. For a custom ROM, what's a good one that people would recommend? I've seen FreedomOS, Resurrection Remix, and LineageOS.
Next, for rooting, would it be a similar process where I flash SuperSU and use Xposed Installer to find/install modules?
Any tips on customizing my device would be appreciated!
Thanks.
Lineage is CM. For rooting you can use Magisk or SuperSU. The choice is yours, but if you want to hide root, use Magisk.
As for Xposed, there is none for Nougat. So no modules for you; you will have to rely on the customization options of the ROM.
That being said, the most feature rich ROMs are Resurrection Remix and AICP.

Thanks for the reply and recommendations!
Are there any pros and cons between Magisk and SuperSU other than hiding root? Also what are the key differences in Lineage, RR and AICP that could help me decide between them?
In addition to that, what would a custom ROM include that stock OOS doesn't? I'm currently rooted with TWRP on stock ROM for now.
hiding the root is pretty much the biggest pro here as it would allow you to use apps such as pokemon go or android pay.
Yeah, that's actually a really nice feature. I couldn't play Pokemon GO since forever ago, and now I can make use of Android Pay.
I'm just still wondering on how to choose a ROM, there's a lot to choose from. RR official/unofficial and AICP are the ones that look interesting right now.

Those are the most feature rich ROMs. Since Xposed isn't an option, you may want to choose one of them.
Hello ppl.
Until now we have some amazing custom roms.
My question is:
What do you prefer?
Until now we have aokp, slim7, viperos, lineageos and xenonhd.
For sure we can use one device tree for all custom roms. We only need to add an slim.mk, viper.mk, xenonhd.mk and such stuff to the device tree's to get a working rom at all.
I found xenonhd yesterday and i thought that viperos is my final rom. But that was finally wrong.
With xenonhd i have full root, full working equalizer for music and such stuff.
So this one is my favourite for now.

Lineage os is my favorite, with a close second of viper os, but I'm not familiar with xenonhd. What is that? Is it nougat?
(Sorry for quoting you Kraze I didn't mean to)
where is the xenonhd ROM link? until now I prefer Lineage.

Lineage is usually a base for other ROMs , so it would be nice if it got more focus to optimise it
, also many of the phone's major issues (Camera / Performance ) Can use improvements
After trying all ROMs other than xenonhd you mention. I have settled on Slim 7. It works good enough and I do not need the extra features with other ROMs. Plus you also get more storage space which I keep running out of.
Slim7 is my favorite
i would prefer pure AOSP

you should update properly your github and sources, even vendors.
so we can use one for all people./rom and we will make better device tree.
My favourite rom is LineageOS. But I prefer Slim7 or ViperOS too. Other roms have bad performance and toooo many useless customization. I think you should update 5.1/6.0 custom roms. CM for example. Now I still on Lineage because this rom is more stable and smooth.
an update to cm12.1 would also be great as it has some issues also like:
- no option to prevent the phone from waking up in your pocket when using double tap to wake
- cannot connect to camera problem happening sometimes
- unable to change lock screen wallpaper
Those are some quality of life updates fixes to the CM12.1 rom that would make it even better while we wait for the nougat roms to be completely fixed.
But the development of the Oreo version at what point is it? Is anyone occupying it?
lineageos
lineageos 13, stable cm12.1 or cm13 or Miui prefer, can you port?

Right now i am using SlimRom 7.1.2, based on Lineage 14.1. You can use them for regular basis, but you can also read what bugs they have etc.
I'm currently using Resurrection Remix v5.8.4 and I am really satisfied with the overall performance and everything
I recommend Resurrection Remix. Why? It's based on many other OSes. Based on: Android, LineageOS, MIUI, SlimROM and 1 more system, forgot the name. It's highly customizable, very fast and it has good battery expenditure. The newest, stable version is based on Android 7.1.2. And an important information. If you are downloading custom ROM, the best GApps version is Nano (only the most important apps from Google, the rest you can download from Google Play).
If you want an instruction how to flash a custom ROM, just easily ask me for it.

Hi. I dont't ask much here, but read much in this forum. But now a i have a question about custom rom.
I used custom rom like resurrection remix all my time. Now i see there isnt much for pie. Is our phone dead? I see there are aosp roms like Google Pixel but i dont't know anything about the Features. I like some settings like swipe back, xposed and so on.
Can i use all those Features in aosp?
Thx for some answers
No one can say if could use all my Features?
What about custom rom? Is see linageos 16 but no resurrection remix and others.
Is this the end for our phone? Lineageos 16 last update Oktober?
