Hey guys, I love how our community keeps growing and we see more and more ROMs
1. One thing I am interested in, is what is most important for you in a ROM?
2. Like is it rather battery, or performance?
3. Whats the favourite look of you all? (provide links if possible)
4. What are the most important features, you are using the phone for?
Like surfing with a browser? FB? Twitter? Gaming? Whatsapp? only SMS and calling?
...?
5. Do you like a rather clean ROM, or do you want to have as many features as possible on the lockscreen and startscreen?
6. What do you dislike most?
7. and most important, what features (except for OC and UV) do you miss on all the ROMs until now?
Maybe this will inspire myself, or other cookers, to add feature, change stuff or simply create an XDA OB ROM, based on the taste of all users (or at least the majority as always)?
Try to answer as many questions as possible, to give a complete overview and dont turn this in a thread about the best ROM already existing, cause it's more of a survey about taste.
To answer all the Questions myself,
1. Most important: Battery life
2. Battery
3. I love CM look, cause it's nice and clean
4. Mostly XDA app, sms, call and listen to music
5. I love a clean ROM, I only need a single button to unlock, not even the function to mute it, or any other launcher. But music control while music is playing, is nice.
6. I dont like the look of LEZO ROM, way to childish
7. A ROM, that brings as many different settings, as CM, has the same battery life & speed, as Zeus/Marvel ROM.
Now it's your turn

1. Battery life
2. Performance
3. Minimalistic MIUI
4. Camera, browser, XDA, gaming, calling, SMS, pulse, youtube & FB
5. Not a clean rom, but a fast minimalistic rom
6. Laggy and buggy rom
7. MIUI statusbar toggles, theme chooser like checkrom(sgs2) & swipeable notifications in statusbar.
Sent from the Sun.
1. battery life or balanced
2. same as #1
3. tuff one... I always change a theme (CM7), decompile (LG Gingerbread)
4. Browsing the web, XDA, taking photos & videos, SMS & calls
5. Clean one. Most apps clogs the ROM hence some sluggish or poor battery life.
6. When an idea pops in my head and find out it was already taken.
7. DUALITY... An app or program that can choose PERFORMANCE to BATTERY SAVER via implementing scripts and values. Much like a toggle. Example is when people want to play games, they hit the toggle for MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE and after can revert back to battery saver when all the fun faded or just want some SMS and calls.
I believe a script can do that (#7). Much like the Nova Settings of Nova kernel.

this is a one nice thread... let's see...
1.- Most important for me is 0 [zero] lag os it should be performance?
2.- Balance between battery life and perfomance [1 day heavy use is good for me]
3.- Favs looks is clean and minimal like PRADA or ICS like MARVEL
4.- 1st calling and sms, 2nd music, 3rd gaming, 4th camera 5th surf w/wifi
5.- Clean Rom but would be nice to have music control on lockscreen [and maybe camera shortcut too]
6.- I hate when battery loose ~10% over night [8~9 hours sleeping] doing nothing [cm7 temasek's kang w/nova11 barely loose 1% over night 8~9 hours sleeping]
7.- A ROM, that brings as many different settings, as CM, has the same battery life & speed, as Zeus/Marvel ROM.

6. shuffle reboots, SoD, laggs
7. sth like miui toggles (same toggle like gabwerkz suggested)

Hey guys, simple question here.
So far I've seen a few ROM mods for the N1. Which among the popular few are the Cyanogen, Modaco's DESIRE, and ENOMTHER's TheOfficial. I've only used Cyanogen mod so far. Can anyone with the OTHER roms(or have tested them) report in with what advantage/disadvantage one rom has over the other? I'm tempted to switch over, but I don't want to do a wipe to only find out the rom wasn't up to speed with what I'm using currently.
=)
Why don't you just do a nandroid backup and dual boot? Don't like the new ROM? Revert to your old ROM with all your applications and whatnot in minutes!
You got a point there. But it'd take me time to adjust to the rom and find out the advantages here and there. I thought it'd be easier to ask someone who's experienced with ROM hopping
I've only used Cyanogen myself, i'm gonna try Modaco on Thursday
Well, I've just tested Enom's mod, it didn't entirely feel different from Cyan besides the spare parts and the default configs it's been set. Also, it doesn't need SetCPU installed as Spareparts control that as well :O

How's the battery life... Cyanogen is raping my battery

Enom's is what I have on my phone and what I'd recommend. It has a good balance to it. It's smoother enough for me to not notice anything, has enough addons, great battery life, good compatibility, etc.
Cyanogen has more addons and does run smoother, but the battery life was absolutely horrible.
I tired Modaco's DESIRE rom and switched back to enom's within 10 minutes. Sense just didn't do it more me.
With enom i REALLY like the landscaped homescreen, but it works weird because if i were to open up the drawer(That's the one with the 9 icon grid amirite?) and turn the phone to landscape, it jumps back to the homescreen landscape view. The battery seems SLIGHTLY better, but i'm thinking it's just a placebo effect.
The battery life is better. At least, better than the Desire ROM, whose later builds seem to be a bit more battery-sucking than usual.
I've tried Cyanogen's 5.0.1 (yeah, was a while ago), many alpha releases of Modaco Desire, and am now on Enomther's. I'm going to admit that I miss many features of Sense: pinchable homescreens (best homescreen overview ever), polish in certain aspects like search and contact management, the browser, and many more--but the performance greatly suffers. Enomther's brings wonderful configurable options, better performance, and superlative battery life. It's got a few... odd things here and there, like how sometimes in the browser multi-touch randomly stops working, but nothing major. I do like it overall, though I plan to go back to Modaco Desire when the next alpha is released.

Erk, the touchscreen is one of the things i get nit-picky about as i own the 3GS. I know the hardware's limited in the sense of multi touch, but i think it shouldn't be any dysfunctional than it already is. I'm going to give enom another try. I noticed i switched back to Cyan because i had already set up everything nicely, and that i didnt give enom's rom a chance to shine(yet) because it seemed bland without Beautiful Widget.
I'll try to make my comparison simple... Note that I am NOT trying to bash on any of the DEVs, I do appreciate all their hard work, each of their ROMs have pros and cons, so this is solely based on what I experienced. That being said, I suggest you should try em all and decide for yourself
CYANOGEN
PROS:
- If you like flashing, and playing around with add ons I highly suggest this, since most of the Devs base their stuff from Cyan's ROM.
- Cyans ROM is very smooth and responsive, and "maybe} slightly faster than the other ROM's.
- Updates often so flashing is your cup of tea. Then you will probably enjoy this.
- Audio Boost.
- MMS interface is better. Black background.
- More choice of Ringtones on 5.0.3
- Option to save Apps to SD or Internal mem on 5.0.6
CONS:
- Battery life is not great.
- Seems to give me more FC.
- Battery over heats with intensive use of app, specially navigation.
ENOMTHER
PROS:
- Battery life is great.
- ROM is the most stable, and has mostly everything you need in a ROM.
- SpareParts makes the ROM highly customizable, so you dont have to flash stuff over. (Enom's SpareParts ROCKS!).
Here are the stuff included in spareparts:
* PID Prioritizer - A slight fix to the Launcher2 lag
* Hotweiss's Radio Mod - which improves Internet/data speed.
* A unique auto rotating launcher with Phone and Browser.
* Built in CPU settings so you can set your frequency without setCPU.
* LED Trackball settings.
* Swappiness settings.
* Statusbar Options.
* Quick Commands - Reboot / Reboot Recovery / Reboot bootloader / Power off.
CONS:
- Less updates. (Enom wants to make sure its 100% stable before he releases his updates).
- No audio boost yet till his next release. But you can flash pershoot/persiansown kernel to get that.
Good Luck!
I FINALLY rooted my woewtp and flashed cyanogen's latest and my battery life is now horrible. I used my phone for 3 months totally stock and I was bragging about how good my battery was. I went from 100 % to 89 % in 12 hours.
But now I've just lost 16 % in 30 minutes. Why is cyanogen so power hungry? I tried searching for similar threads, I KNOW I've seen them around, but I can't find any of them.
Thanks

Looks promising. To be honest, I'll wait to see "what you see now isn't all" to try this one, but will follow developpement, for sure.
Good luck !

Thanks, I'll definitely add extras to this Currently trying to merge all the different volume levels into one, mainly because I dislike having 4 volumes to keep track of.
Future ideas I'm thinking of are porting the FM Radio support across from the N1 and including this HW video decoding when it's released: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MxNWmKKJ0AA&feature=player_embedded
Any suggestions on what else to add? I'm thinking of a bit of visual changes here and there too.
Wow, this video gives me great hopes about playback of videos on Nexus S. Seems to work a lot better than MoboPlayer everyone seems to love (but why ? yes it "plays" many codecs, but videos are playing so slow...).
FM Radio support is a great thing too. I like Tunein Radio app but it uses 3g, and a real FM Radio would be perfect. I had one on Galaxy S and this is hard to do without it now.
I'm always looking for performance and battery improvements, so I think you could focus on this.
I always remove many things from roms I download, to get it as clean as possible, and to let people install what they want.
eg, in your rom, I'll remove TB, ROM Manager, google apps... Everything is on the market, I just let essential stuffs.
If the rom runs well, I'll post my clean version.
But waiting for FM Radio and video playback improvements now...
I don't know if it's included yet, but don't think so since this is based on AOSP, but buttons on status bar (wifi, gps, 2g/3g...) is quite essential.
Also, having battery % in status bar is needed too.

might as well use a CM7 base then -_- since you just requested every feature from CM
So there isn't any plus feature except "fast bootup".

I'll add an accurate battery mod soon, and I can look into the status controls (it was one of my most used features of CM7 after all ).
I'm gonna put together a list of stuff in the changelog post come to think of it, thanks for all the suggestions.

Not every, just 2 features, maybe just one since if I remeber well, there's an option in AOSP to get % instead of color thing. The option from CM7 just put % into color thing. Well, not sure about that, just tried AOSP 10 minutes when getting phone out of the box, before rooting and flashing stuffs.
And CM7 has bugs : go into SMS app, clic "attachments", take or make a video, clic record button... tadam ! Here's a bug !

Yet I didn't see many AOSP ROMs here so I thought I'd post an early version. Consider it a stable beta (0.1.0) Version 1 will be the release with major features.
wow.. im happy to see new developers for NS.. will support you.. its a bit disapointing when seeing not many developers working on NS since its release..
will give it a try 2nt

Hmmm, sounds good.
There are a few things you could add:
Maybe TV-out (Galaxy S)
The bouncy thing when you scroll too far in a menu (Galaxy S)
A few extra wallpapers (Any source)
Dlna.apk (I don't remember the name :O) (Galaxy S)
The extra codecs (Galaxy S)
FM Radio (If possible) (Galaxy S)
Menu option of darker layout to save battery (My mind :3)
Hardware accelerated browser like Opera Mobile 11
Some thing, its your choice if you decide to add anything, but good luck anyway
This might be the best rom after a while
Great to see a new rom in this section, also look to be a very promising one. I have question which i hope you can answer..why are almost all real custom roms using gri40 as a base...gri40 has limited support for quite a few European languages while gri54 does have that support but also includes full support for English ...on gri40 for example there is no Dutch dictionary for the keyboard also a lot of other options and settings are half English/Dutch ..i could understand the choice for gri40 if gri54 did not support English..but maybe i am missing something obvious and is gri40 really the best choice.

seems like a ROM that is going to stay and take a good share among users!

GRI40 is what comes in the AOSP source as far as I can tell. I haven't seen any AOSP roms (CM7, SuperAOSP, MIUI) with GRI54. Maybe its an option somewhere, I will try and find out. I also read somewhere that a rom switched back to GRI40 for market compatibility. If needed I can try and bring over the extra language support if I find the source of GRI54.
@everyone
Thanks for the feedback and ideas. I'm sure to include some of them, also any possible goodies the Incredible S brings to GB. I definitely wont be ditching my Nexus S any time soon, I usually keep my phones for at least a year and a bit, and I will be supporting this as long as I have my phone
Ill update the features list in a minute, earlier today I was working on an accurate battery so that's coming very soon.

Goal(concept)?
Hmm, The question that I'm going to ask you is weird, but I think this is important.
What is goal for your custom rom?
Fast & Stable, as you mentioned on the title?
If so, I'm gonna use this rom for my daily use because I'm a fanboy of that words; fast & stable.
OK. Thanks for your quick answer. I didn't know about gri40 being the only one showing up in aosp sources (i am quite new to this) it was just something i was wondering. Keep up your great work! Very curious how your rom will evolve..

Some good ideas there, some of which I hadn't thought of because they don't apply to me as such
With the TV Out, how does that work? I've never seen it done with anything other than HDMI and Apple 30pin... do you have some kind of special USB cable? DLNA is very similar, I might try that first.
I can try and add the bouncy thing, I've gotten quite used to the glow didn't like how CM had implemented it, bounced too much too quickly. I did previously own an iPod touch so I know how well it can be done
Extra wallpapers are definitely going to be added, suggestions for ones to be included would be helpful, although I have a few already.
The extra codecs will probably come with the hardware decoding support (when its released). Anything in particular? Eg FLAC?
FM radio is already on the list, but good to know there's interest for it
If I change any more apps to have a darker background, I'll definitely try to include a universal 'dark mode'. So far its only MMS.apk I think?

Hey everybody,
I spent the last two weeks since I got hold of my HTC One with flashing every Rom available, but still I couldn't find an entirely satisfying package.
Since I see all the mods and kind of got to know that a lot of options are available via Aroma Installer I am beginning to question my approach.
Maybe I got it all wrong looking for the one ROM that fits my needs...
But that was what I was used to on my Samsung Galaxy Nexus.
I basically sticked to one ROM for months and applied occasional updates.
Basically what I would want:
Good Audio Quality
It doesn't have to be Beats, but at least equally loud and not cracking like most of the AOSP roms I tried.
This is crucial as it was one of the main criteria for me to buy the HTC One. I want to make use of those gorgeous speakers.
Stock look preferred
I feel that Sense is way to bloated and I kind of like the stock Android Halo Look.
As I am using Nova Launcher anyways I wouldn't be missing the Sense Launcher. I find the Sense Settings Menu confusing, to be honest.
Battery Percentage on the right, no extra icon on the left
Notification Toggles / Horizontal Toggles
Well there are apps (like this one), but they require to display a notification icon permanently.
Power Saver Mode
This one is apparently working quite well...and I wouldn't mind having it in the CustomROM.
But if I can get a sufficient amount of daily use outof it I would be happy enough
Changing Screen-Density to 400 to 420dpi
Doesn't really matter if done via manually editing the build.prop or in a different way. It's just important to me that it can be done withouth making the Framework instable.
Hide IME-Switcher Notification, as I am using SwiftKey permanently
Longpress Back-to-Kill
I really make use of this quite often as I have a lot of apps that I use only once a day, such as banking or runtastic. After using them I am used to killing them, which saves me the detour of going to the recently used apps.
Kill-All in recently used apps
If I have to kill 10 or so apps I endorse having the kill-all button.
Home / HTC-Logo / Sweep 2 Wake
My hands are average size so it is quite a pain to reach all the way up to the power button. (Misplacement if you ask me.)
Something I thought I might get used to, but I just couldn't.
(...seriously, this is what works on the iphone. Waking the phone pushing the home button, while it is placed on it's flat unwobbly back. Hence the HTC One lays better in the hand due to the curved back.)
Some way to wake the phone up without using two hands would be great.
HTC-Logo to Menu or Option to have an onscreen-menubar
I kind of miss the menu button...if the 3-dot menu is just disabled in some roms.
I actually was considering getting the onscreen menubar back and linking the home and back button to apps such as Whatsapp and Google Now solely.
Enough of the wishlist :laugh:
Has anyone any recommendations how to get this jack of all trades stock rom?
I tried the following:
Android Revolution HD, TrickDroid, ViperOne, InsertCoin, bigxie Google Edition, the nandroid of the GE stock image.
PAC-man, CyanogenMod, ParanoidAndroid
At the moment I am running InsertCoin, which is not that bad. But still feels a bit bloated, due to the sense "look and feel".
If I would have to evaluate what bugged me the most and really surprised me on each "type" of rom the baseline would look like this:
Sense based roms:
+ Battery Life
+ Stability
+ Sound Quality
- "messy" Sense look and feel (Settings etc.)
Google Edition roms:
+ Stock look and feel
+ Sound Quality
- Battery Life
- Customizability (Battery-Percentage, Toggles etc.)
Non-HTC Base roms:
+ Stock look and feel
+ Customizability
- Battery Life
- Stability
-- Sound Quality very poor
Please don't get me wrong.
I am not someone who is too lazy to get through all the Roms and read myself into it. :angel:
But I think that I might be missing out on something or just overlooking an option, like a kitchen for the HTC One or so
Thanks in advance :good:
All the best.
Flash the ViperOne
you will have all you want.

That's what I thought as well
And I tried it yesterday evening.
Though it felt bloated. It's not only the overwhelming sense-like UI, but as well all the features it offers.
Viper debloated and Google Edition based, with a leaner approach to all the used icons would be love on the first sight :good:
Thanks for the immediate reply
(just realized I called ViperOne "Venom" in my prev. Post)
You have to do a choise.
If you like the GE Rom, flash this, but the audio, the zoe function and much more there aren't.
ViperOne is the best rom for the customization
Okay Slim Bean for the HTC One seems to be the best compromise. :victory:
Not bloated at all, stock look and feel, true black theme and all the requested and beloved features are available.
The on thing I was worried about was the One-specific things, such as Hardware Key Controls and wake-options, but they are built right in the rom/kernel combination.
A user reported 22h (100% to 2%) with slightly over 4h of screentime, which sounds sweet.
Gonna try to install a sound mod to increase the soundquality.
Even though it is not as bad as on the other AOSP-based roms that I tried before.
Hello everyone
I want to flash a new, fast and nice performance ROM on my Galaxy S5, but i want to keep the stock camera and calendar app.
As far as i know, if i install a new ROM it will delete and replace the stock camera and calendar, so my question is, which ROM Omega or Cyanogen let me do that .
Thank you very much for your help

Omega will let you keep the stock camera. Not sure about the Calendar.
You lose both in CyanogenMOD for sure.

Just out of curiosity, what don't you like about the stock ROM? The performance is on par with any of the alternat ROMs out there, so why risk borking your phone or losing apps that you want to keep?
Just get a different launcher to modify the look and feel of the phone to your tastes.

you're mostly correct but there's one thing that it's very different between TW ROMs (that I've tried) and AOSP ROMs (like CM or Carbon) - the notification and quick settings panels; i'm not sure how much these can be customized on TW ROMs and how easy it is to do so but in their default implementation I find CM's notificaiton and quick setting panels vastly superior to those of TW's

In what way? Been awhile since I used an AOSP ROM...
I mean, the notification panel is such a trivial thing most of the time. Shows battery, clock and basic alerts... To me, it isn't worth the risk of messing up a good phone, or introducing instability or missing features, just to tweak the battery alert or whatever...
I was all into ROMs on older phones like the DroidX, Thunderbolt and some others... because the stock roms were crap. Issues, random reboots, horrible lag, etc... The ROMs got the phones to work properly, they way they were meant to.
But on my LG G2 and now this GS5, I just don't see the need. There is no lag, everything works beautifully, and when I research the ROMs, there is always some bug, some missing feature, something that just doesn't work right... So I don't see any point in switching, when you have 20 launchers to choose from that can make your phone look and feel any way that you want, with no risk and with not having to give anything up...
Each generation of phone and release of Android, makes ROMs more and more obsolete, IMHO... I think that 90% of the people that use them today, do it either out of habit, or just because they want to show off to their nerdy friends.
Nice work!
Well, you are so right, I will keep my stock ROM with the apps I want. But, now I have other question, my GS5 is on ATT and I want to remove the bloatware apps that I don't use, do you know where can I find the complete list for this carrier. Thanks for your time.

What I meant by the notification panel was not just the bar across the top of the screen with a bunch of icons but also the pulled down notification menu as well as the quick settings panel. On TW half of the screen's real estate of the notification menu is taken by a row of toggle icons (which are duplicated on the quick settings screen), two buttons that launch apps that I never used (S Finder and Quick Connect, I don't even know what these apps actually do) and a brightness slider (which in fairness can be disabled, if I recall correctly.)
Then you get to the quick settings panel on which there's also not that many shortcuts that I would use (most of which are for the extra features of TW which I also have no interest in) and there's quite a few that I'd love to see there but they're not available. On CM, on the other hand, the notification menu is clean and simple; it's not bl(essed|oated) with some additional buttons which you may or may not use. The quick settings screen is also much more customizable than that of TW's which only allows for rearanging of toggle icons. On CM you can add, remove and freely arrange all icons on the quick settings screen. And yes, you can add that row of icons to the notification screen and get rid of quick settings altogether, if so you desire.
Some toggles that are available on CM but not on TW are screen time out, lock screen disable/enable or torch. Personally I happen to be using these numerous times throughout the day so while it is only a minor inconvenience to go to the settings and change something manually it adds up quickly if you have to do that often.
To summarize my little rant - the notifications menu and quick settings panel section of the system's interface is used quite often by me (and I'd say others as well) and I simply find inadequate what TW has to offer here. The rest of the TW is either virtually the same as any other version Android or can be easily "fixed", example of which was mentioned by yourself (the launcher).
Now, I agree with you that it may not be worth it for some people to "risk" using a custom AOSP ROM but it can't be denied that by definition such ROMs offer a much greater flexibility and allow one to use their phone exactly how they want (to a greater degree than can be said about TW). Differences can ofcourse be described as "minor" but whether they're significant is for everyone to decide on their own. After all, if there was no need for custom ROMs (whether it's just showing off to nerdy friends or some other reason) people wouldn't create them...

Have a look in this forum. There's a good few "debloated" ROMs over there, and a list of what's removed is sometimes included. As for what to remove the apps with, I would personally recommend Titanium Backup.
Hi people, after testing a couple of custom roms in the search for better performance I have figured out that the official MIUI rom is the best in performance, stability and battery management. (With some tweaks)
First tested the crDroid rom posted here. It is beautiful, simple, lighweight, the first time I flashed it I made the mistake of enabling aditional protection with pattern, then everytime it booted started of asking for pattern before boot (taking more time), getting slow, it crashed once, reflashed, didn't activated the aditional protection and everything worked good, only the proximity sensor where not working, the performance in UI was great, but gaming it didn't.
Second I tested Bootleggers ROM posted here. It's beautiful too, even more, the splash screen after logo is amazing, in my experience it works better than crDroids, all features worked as intended, very fluid UI, face unlock didn't work as in crDroids, voice match did it, but in gaming it was the same, the performance where not as good as it is in MIUI.
Some things to take into account:
-I flashed both of them with Open Gapps Nano from here used ARM64, Android 9, nano, it
worked better than the pico included in both posts because with pico voice match was not working.
-In both roms flashed Evira Kenerl 1.9, maybe isn't compatible with crDroids rom and because of that the proximity sensor where
not working, in Bootleggers rom Evira Kernel 1.5 is included, so there doesn't should be any compatibility issue.
-The game that I tested in both was PUBG Mobile, any of them played it in full screen mode (the notch bar), in MIUI it is played in
full screen mode.
-I use MIUI Global 10.3.5 debloated with Saki/EU tool from here and Evira Kernel 1.9, no battery savers from Magisk
What I saw is that the battery performance is almost the same in any of them, the system performance is fluid in any of them, including MIUI, but games performance is better in MIUI, there are no bugs (for what I know), face unlock works great, the fingerprint recognition in MIUI is better, stock camera offers manual mode, Gcam port from BSG is the best one and works perfect in the roms that I tested, and the most important thing that I noted is that the RAM usage in the three roms is almost the same, in MIUI I get 2+ GB of free RAM as in the custom roms.
So, because all of this my conclusion is that for now is better to stay in MIUI, it has OTA updates, is stable, bug free, and performs really great, even better in games in my experience.
Thanks.

right now, I haven't root my phone yet. based on your experience, I think I won't root my phone (at least until there's the most stable & efficient rom or until the warranty period expires).
you said that you use evira kernel. so, is it worth it to root my phone just for this kernel?

Well, if you unlock your bootloader the warranty will be void, if you decide to do it I recommend you to root your phone with this guide from HERE, with root you can use Adaway for blocking all ads in your mobile, in any way Magisk is required to flash Evira Kernel, and it worth the proccess, the battery will last longer and the performance can be improved; is up to you.
:good:
Yup bro if you need your phone for gaming then it's always a basic rule “Custom ROMS are not made for gaming”
Which means you better stick with the stock rom for the full gaming experience
But doesn't it bother you that you don't see notifications in your status bar and lockscreen?
This is the only reason that made me switch to custom roms..

But if you love your rn7's camera then don't use any of the custom or miui based custom roms... Camera performance is always better in the stock rom.
What I did was, after trying every other roms I've switched back to the stock china rom, flashed magisk and used titanium backup (paid v) app to debloat the rom of useless apps.
I've also tried the global rom but found the china roms camera performance to be superior.

Hello everyone
I Just bought a Redimi Note 7 after a quite long time using Samsung S8.
There is a couple thing really bothering me like
The swipe up opening google search.
I can't sort the apps alphabetically (really sucks)
The camera seems to be a little too dark (like the default cfg needs a tweak)
Infinite screen seems to be in conflict with the swipe up google search thing.
I got a couple of photos to compare the stock camera from the S8 and the Redmi
But the forum anti span wont let me

Hi, it works pefect at 1.9 version, for better battery I use alucardsched for CPU governors and zen for I/O scheduler, you should disable fsync in miscellaneous, I did it and no problem at all, it improves a lot the performance for wiriting/reading process in ROM.

If you face issues using Android auto + Waze and Xiaomi devices .
Set the power saving settings to no restrictions o both Android auto and Waze.
Go to app management and select the app to do It.
The problem I'm having now is .
When I receive an audio on WhatsApp I click play it starts playing on the speaker but it do not transfer to the ear speaker when I bring it close to my face .
Anyone knows how to fix it ?

Settings - Notification & status bar - App notifications - Your app - Notification categories - Your category - Importance - Set on HIGH from Default/Low/Minimal
This also (from my experience) sorts the icons on the status bar, so apps with higher "importance" are shown in the situation, in which you have too many notification icons.

Thanks. I don't have it, I just got MIUI 10.3.3.0 EU. This importance thing must be a MIUI 10.4 feature.
Very good write up. I'm sure there are many people who are sticking with stock rom for now with same/similar experiences or reasons. I'm one of them.
What app should I debloat??

Hi people, after using a couple of custom roms in the search for better performance I have figured out that the official MIUI rom is the best in performance, stability and battery management. (With some tweaks)
First tested the crDroid rom posted here. It is beautiful, simple, lighweight, the first time I flashed it I made the mistake of enabling aditional protection with pattern, then everytime it booted started of asking for pattern before boot (taking more time), getting slow, it crashed once, reflashed, didn't activated the aditional protection and everything worked good, only the proximity sensor where not working, the performance in UI was great, but gaming it didn't.
Second I tested Bootleggers ROM posted here. It's beautiful too, even more, the splash screen after logo is amazing, in my experience it works better than crDroids, all features worked as intended, very fluid UI, face unlock didn't work as in crDroids, voice match did it, but in gaming it was the same, the performance where not as good as it is in MIUI.
Some things to take into account:
-I flashed both of them with Open Gapps Nano from here used ARM64, Android 9, nano, it
worked better than the pico included in both posts because with pico voice match was not working.
-In both roms flashed Evira Kenerl 1.9, maybe isn't compatible with crDroids rom and because of that the proximity sensor where
not working, in Bootleggers rom Evira Kernel 1.5 is included, so there doesn't should be any compatibility issue.
-The game that I tested in both was PUBG Mobile, any of them played it in full screen mode (the notch bar), in MIUI it is played in
full screen mode.
-I use MIUI Global 10.3.5 debloated with Saki/EU tool from here and Evira Kernel 1.9, no battery savers from Magisk
What I saw is that the battery performance is almost the same in any of them, the system performance is fluid in any of them, including MIUI, but games performance is better in MIUI, there are no bugs (for what I know), face unlock works great, the fingerprint recognition in MIUI is better, stock camera offers manual mode, Gcam port from BSG is the best one and works perfect in the roms that I tested, and the most important thing that I noted is that the RAM usage in the three roms is almost the same, in MIUI I get 2+ GB of free RAM as in the custom roms.
So, because all of this my conclusion is that for now is better to stay in MIUI, it has OTA updates, is stable, bug free, and performs really great, even better in games in my experience.
Thanks.
