Friends, recently i bought new One plus 8 pro. It is 1 year old. I mean released version. So i will get max. 1 year more Big upgrade.(Android12) & 1 Security update. It is not a big deal for me. That's why i need long term supported alternative Rom, such as Custom rom. My phone will be In2020 china version. I need all possible functions on rom.(stable) i will no root, cause i need baking app too. So should i stick witch China(Hos) Oneplus or go for better stable rom. Can you prefer me a good stable custom rom(less bug) for long term oTa support? & how to get back to official rom with bootloader relock?(if anything goes wrong)
I know, a lot of questions. I m doing for future proof for 4-5 years. Thank you in advance.

You can put oos on your device if it has hhydrogen os.
all custom roms have different features and customizations.
I suggest you go to the telegram channels and talk to the people there.
but if you want short answer then go for havoc rom . 4.4 version is very stable.
no rom is perfect so you’ll see what bugs there are from the group .

Stock OS works a treat...

So im new to this forum but not to rooting and flashing. Basiclly though im thinking of rooting but not sure there are any stable roms worth flashing and any issues i should look out for. Someone please help me get back into rooting n flashing on op5. Thanks in advance.
Codename Phoenix and Candy ROM are the two most stable and smooth Oreo ROMs that I have used on the OP5. Most custom Oreo ROMs for this phone have bugs, are missing features or don't run all that smoothly. The majority of the Nougat ROMs and kernels for OP5 aren't going to be updated to Oreo because most developers have abandoned the phone since it was only sold for 4 months and unified ROM development for the OP5/5T appears to be impossible. Unless you are one of those people that buys a new phone every year the OP5 is going to end up being a terrible purchase. The Codename Phoenix dev is talking about getting a new phone (definitely not from One Plus) and abandoning his ROM for this device. The dev of Flash Kernel switched to a Pixel 2XL and might also abandon development for this phone. If you use a non-OOS ROM Flash and Blu Spark are the only two custom kernels left that you can flash.

There's xXx romb No Limits. It's VERY stable. Based on oxygen os. I'm running this for a very long time and had zero issues.
So according to you, which is the best & stable custom rom for Moto G5+? and which rom you are currently using?

It's really astonishing that every week a thread with that question pops up here, I think at the moment we have three or four of these. Why has everyone to open a new thread to ask a question that can't be answered?
The only valid answer is: Try them out.
There is no "best" custom ROM, if there would be one we only needed that, all other ROMs would be obsolete.
But to give you a direction:
Imho the stock ROM is the best in terms of battery and performance.
All Oreo ROMs have bugs, some just small ones, others bigger ones. Examples are camera, video recording or high battery consumption.
Also there are some big problems if you want to return to stock, losing voLTE, losing 4G or IMEI are well known in this forum.
I wouldn't flash any Oreo ROM before Lenovo releases stock Oreo, the bugs can be sorted out and there will be safe ways to return to stock if you wish.
If you still want to flash a custom ROM Aosp Extended 4.6 based on Nougat is a good one but don't forget to make a nandroid backup before you flash anything.
This is only my personal opinion, as written above to find "your" best ROM you'll have to test them.

It's been more than a month since I got my lavender. Seeing so many Roms developed, I'm feeling to unlock my bootloader and flash custom Rom. What do you think?
I can already unlock bootloader but didn't. I feel custom roms development for this device isn't mature enough yet. Thinking of waiting until official TWRP and LOS are released.
Please guys, do custom roms have L1 certification for playing HD videos on Netflix ?
I think you should stay with MIUI (but this version is better) + debloating your device with this tool (you can remove everything - I already did it and installed Google apps via the playstore)
I think MIUI is more feature complete: the edge gestures amazing & tons of useful feature that are simply missing in stock android! Feel free to slap a theme on it (if you want) and there you go cheers!
I'll be sticking with MIUI until they stop updating. Then I'll switch to LineageOS or similar. By that time I expect that it will be very stable and make my phone feel like new.
I have switched to Nova Launcher though.
What are differences between the latest MIUI 10.3.5 and xiomi.eu?

Beta Xiaomi.eu ROMs are based on china dev which has latest changes and the good thing is they removed a lot of useless stuff and added Gapps as well. It's like clean version of china dev in all languages without any ads.
It's really good
i got my Redmi Note 7 (global) 3 days ago. I thought in advantage that i will go for LOS (or similar) as soon as possible. But my opinion has changed...
The most important thing in my opinion is debloating, as mentioned above. You don't need root or an unlocked bootloader btw.
In addition i use Nova Launcher Prime and the Playstore App "Notch Notifications for MIUI".
I'm very satisfied so far... MIUI definitely adds some super useful functions that i missed on my recent phones like Mi A1 with Android One.
On the other hand, the more people use and test the custom roms now, the better quality said roms will be when I want them in a year or two.
Like the title says, is the original rom good? Or should i go custom right as i boot it 1fst time
It worth it, at least you get the notifications work correctly and shows at the top of the status bar unlike the stock rom..
My advice to you is to istall lineage only, it's the most stable rom so far.
It depends on your priorities, if you want more choice, more control on what apps are pre installed, no bloatware, and more customization options, then that's what custom roms are for. But mind that it comes with lower security, at least as long as the manufacturer updates the device. Because custom roms usually run with looser security settings and features.
does custom roms fix the touchscreen lag on the edges?
Not worth it yet. Wait till official lineage and official trwp are released. More risky to use custom roms whose source codes are not released.

as i've seen and read in the forums, the unoffical lineage rom seems to be very stable already. Which problem do you see in flashing this version now?
My bootloader is unlocked in 3 hours and i want to get rid of this EMUI crap and bloatware

You don't get updates on unofficial versions and it's not as well maintained/supported as name implies. I rather keep bootloader locked and secured, and get almost monthly updates from xiaomi. Until official TWRP and LOS are released, as stated earlier. No need to rush and deal with instability or unexpected problems. I debloat unnecessary apps using SAKI program on stock room without root. I honestly think this is the best path to go for now.
I won't install any custom roms before official TWRP support and official LineageOS ROM support comes. I'd not also unlock my phone's bootloader untill those two thing comes.

I switched to Pixel Exirience rom from the global 10.3.5 and touch latency on the edges still the same.
I don't know what custom rom users priorities are, mine definitely having a smooth and proper working device. Most roms I tested in the past simple but most used features, like the camera, were always a headache. It might make sense for a techie or geek, but for daily use I'd rather debloat MIUI for mind peace...

any of you guys installed xiaomi.eu? seems like the better version of miui IMO.

The Evira Kernel is built into the PE, so i just updated it to the last 1.9 version and did not feel any difference.

If you just want to get rid off the bloatware, just use adb commands. No unlocking and rooting needed
If you got the 3GB/32GB variant. then lineage OS or pixel experience should save you some extra GBs of storage and free you some extra ram (MiUI 10.3.5 uses 1.6GB or something IDLE and leaves you with 20GB storage with stock apps)
It is to early. You have latest version of Android OS on your phone, and Xaomi still give us updates with some new features.
Custom Roms are still developing and have some bugs,so .. I will no rush with installing custom rom yet. Thats my opinion.
When Xaomi stop supporting us and giving us updates,after one year that is sure that will happen,than will custom ROMs will be fully developed..and can install it..
I would like to have custom rom ,and Elvira kernel, I like tweaks and mods from Magisk. But also I want to see MIUI 11 and next Xaomi updates for RN7.
As soon as I could, I unlocked my bootloader and installed AOSP (GSI).
I don't really like MIUI, it has a lot of nice features but actually I don't use most of them.
For me, it's worth.
Hi guys,
I am currently using an iPhone 12 as my primary device and looking for an secondary device.
Before iPhone 12, I was using OnePlus 5T and I used to play around by flashing different Custom ROMs since it had a good community support.
Now looking to buy Poco M3 as my secondary device. The only thing I want from a Custom ROM is pure android with no noticeable bugs.
How is the Custom ROM support for Poco M3? Are the ROMs stable enough to use it as daily driver? If yes, Which is the most Stable ROM as of now.
My decision to buy Poco M3 will be purely based on Custom ROMs availability since I will flash it in the day 1 itself. If no stable ROM is available, I am looking to buy Moto G40 Fusion.
And I can see a lot of threads mentioning Phone Dead/Bricked issues. Does that happen only with official MIUI or custom ROMS also?
Can you guys help me out. Thanks in advance.

well, you are talking about a great phone with good screen and awesome speakers, i am also a poco m3 user so, i might be the best to give you the right answer,
let's begin if you want vanilla android try pixel experience rom but it's unofficial for our device, so i would recommend you dot os official rom, it's fast and beautiful
remember, before flashing any rom read the guide carefully, cause many rom including dot os require you to have certain version of miui to be able to flash bug free.
best of luck.
