I'm using Beanstalk and it's pretty stable with stock kernel.

I have tried plenty of Lollipop and MM ROMs. For me, no ROM comes near CAF ROM with stock included kernel. It's fastest and smoothest and heats least than any other ROM available.
For customisations you can use GravityBox, Layers Themes.
This ROM decreased my flashaholic nature

Gotta be the CAF Rom with Stock Kernel.

After reading your comment i went back to the CAF ROM thread and tried to read all the posts there and what i got to know that there is some problem in the battery drain on the latest 11th feb build. Can you please light up some more info regarding battery drain issue?
Right now I am on mokee mm latest build.
Thanks

I'm not the best guy to ask about battery life.
I can't tell if it got better or worse with any ROM unless you ask if there is any overnight battery drain. The battery usage goes unnoticeable for me.
Kindly try yourself!

About Lolipop ROMs...

Hello,
I´ve been thinking about that: Which one is better: Ressurection or NightOwn? And why?
I did a try and both seems like same! (same bugs, same layout - material design, etc...)
Maybe LL Roms could make custom roms a little bit hard to do core/visual changes, or it is just a my mistake?
You should try it first , then you can compare which is better ! Btw i prefer using nightowl for battery life [emoji106]

I have the same confusion! What bugs did you face?
They have similar issues. In latest versions there are proximity sensor issues during call, also users complain about 1080p recording not working, overheating, battery drain, etc. All bugs and solutions are in the original threads. You guys should try both of them and compare. It all depends of what you expect. Both are beta versions so bugs are expected. I have used both and I like Bauner's version a bit more, for no specific reason. I had to return to more stable rom, because I'm currently using N7000 as main phone and I need it to be stable as much is possible.
i tried both and smilar. but nightowl better battery life and smoothness. but you must try and see which one.

Currently I'm on SlimKat (4.4.4), after using NightOwl beta 9.0.1. Still facing some bugs on Lollipop roms and I find this one quite stable for now.

I sugest you go and get lanchon's kernel with the trimfix and the FP bug fix, it's the only truly stable kernel avaliable for the n7000.
Aldo, it supots trim, that helps a lot with the phone's responsiveness

Best ROM for Xiaomi MI3

Which is for you the best ROM at this moment? I have just flashed SlimLP with Layers and seems cool! D2TW working!!
Official miui, it has no bugs at all. but i have tried different roms here, maybe the best non official is unofficial omnirom.
i wonder if the dt2w is really working, and its not eating your battery.

Currently I use Official CM 12.1 and working good so far, the problem I got is, Photosphere and Panorama didn't work on Google Camera.. any clue how to fix it?

I saw some post regarding SOD in latest release , so i didnt tried.
My Daily Driver: AICP v10 20150809 nightly + No SIM bug fix + FM fix.
Except for the unresolved HDR bug everything works fine on this build, no issues at all.
Absolutely smooth and stable. Battery life is very good as well :thumbup:
SlimBit

I completely agree.
SlimBit is lean, stable and fast, my daily driver. So far everything works fine (expect the snapdragon camera in HDR mode, but which does???)
After using a couple of others:
MIUI6 - gorgeous design, stable, but slow, resource hungry and full of features - which I hardly need.
Ivan's AOSP 5.1.1 - fast, lean, functional. no updates and regular call drops.
MinimalOS (Bitti's) - fast, lean, functional. no updates and random reboots.
Latest official cm 12.1 is fast, stable and has amazing battery. Omnirom was my previous daily driver - also superstable. Would use miui7 just for the camera, but I cant stand the notification system...

No idea. I just flashed in extended partition. I planning to flash Alexret v6 kernel
I'm using unofficial CM by kundancool, the battery life and performance are great.
EOS is the Greatest!
For rom cook I prefer EOS, love the slide navigation.
But I am using miui7 08.28 now. Its quite stable, no lag, good battery. May be this time Xiaomi did listen to us
Sent from my MI 3W using Tapatalk
Mokee or Bitti's Omnirom - rock solid stable and reliable performance. Install the ColorOS camera (search xda forums) and enjoy the awesome camera.
Metallium OS R1, using for last 2 weeks without any issues. Stable, fast, smooth... Very much like Ivan's AOSP. My reliable daily driver. Love the extra number row on the default AOSP keyboard, makes typing so much easier. Only bug is the known HDR bug. One of the few ROMs which doesn't have the bottom touch bug. Exceptional battery life (both standby and SOT are great).

Totally agree.
I used miui v7 for the first time since its release. Before I was using different custom roms based on lollipop for past 6-7 months.
About MIUI 7 16.09.
I must tell you that its the best refined experience I am having since I bought this phone.
No performance lag ( not as fast as lollipop , but still its great.), No heating at all, Best bettery life ever, Best camera, Best sound.
Its not powerful in multitasking as compared to lollipop roms,, but still I couldnt find any problem on my side.
So if you are like me using custom roms for past 6 months,,, I recommend you to just try it..
You will feel good.
which :/ custom rom has good battery life more then miui7???
, as it is KitKat based it sucks isn't that smooth as lollipop xiaomi is cheating on us

Suggest Rom

I want...
1) battery life.
2)Smoothness
3)don't have big bugs specially with calling,Wi-Fi,3G etc.
Thanks
1. Wrong place to post this.
2. ROM preference is kind of a personal thing. Try them it to find one that best suits you.
You could go With Tesla for speed, battery life is around 11hrs with greenify and fusion 6.0 for battery life (1day with greenify) , performance is good no lag. .. I use the former as primary rom and latter as secondary because of it's battery life , as I give priority to performance than battery life... I've used cm 12.1, pacman, prudroid, blisspop, paranoid, resurrection remix, ... And I found the above said 2 roms the best, personal choice. .
having tried Cm12.1 , stock 5.0.2 , titan , slim LP and loads of others - I'm currently using nexus experience rom all i can say, its the only custom rom i've kept for more than 2days -- NOT saying others are no good-- just I personally like this one.

I strongly recommentd, Blisspop. BlissPop-v4.0.3-titan-OFFICIAL-20151007-0743
Blisspop has features but bad ram management.. ..
Fusion, Exodus or crDroid
I'm using blisspop with spirit kernel.
Its giving 4 hrs of SOT. Any other ROM which can give more SOT? I'm a heavy user so I need to charge it twice.. Which ROM is best for SOT? Fusion or nexus experience or any else?

Resurrection Remix easily. Been using it for two months now and it works fantastically. Amazing battery life with even better standby. Forgot to charge it last night and am at 22% in the morning. Enjoy!

yes there is one... But it doesn't have any customisatons option.. And my mobile gets easily even in moderate use..
How about Miui V7. Did you try?
I want stock like nexus.. miui lags
There were a lot of stable cm and aosp+ builds of KitKat. Download 1 of them and flash a modern kernel for lp or one of them that has KitKat support and it should work just fine. I flashed carbon rom then flashed xcelerate build 65 kernel without any issues booting or functioning. I never used it long enough to confirm random reboot was gone but as that was related to kernel issue the odds are it wasn't going to ever happen

Me too. I don't really like MIUI. Why don't you try Lollipop ROM like Blisspop. It's quite stable, no bugs, no SOD, customizable, you can use as daily ROM. I used Extended Partition, TWRP and TK Gapps.
It is better than MIUI, I think.
lollipop don't have good battery backup
this is not entirely true ... the difference is about 10 or up to 20% in favor of miui (stable) ... the latest china developer MIUI rom also suffers from poor battery life... sacrifice 1h (sot) use of the phone is quite profitable ... in my eyes.
Sot may not see a huge difference but with standby time KitKat blew lp out of the water unless you didn't flash gapps in lp. That's my opinion and experience anyway. Gapps in lollipop is always a huge battery drain I've never been able to fully control even by turning everything off in app ops and etc.

u can use xposed(gravity box) in Ivan's aosp for customizations

There are any issues with your configuration ?
Only real problem I seen was a slower charge and the back camera didn't work and the front camera quality was crap. If it had a working camera I would honestly still be using carbon KitKat or even pa aosp+ KitKat which didn't have the slow charging issue but didn't look as nice though either.
Sorry my quotes no longer work Tapatalk has to keep screwing up a good thing and turning it into crap
Sent from my MI 3W using Tapatalk
out of all the custom roms i tried, Ivan's aosp kitkat was the most stable and I had no problems with it except the capacitive button light issue which wasn't a major concern for me, for customizations xposed was my way to go. I highly recommend you to try it if stability is your concern ✌
hope this helped you

I wouldn't recommend it because the only good KitKat rom for this phone was Ivan's. Pa wasn't bad but you won't have a camera anymore. I never tested it on Ivan's but I did test it on carbon and WiFi worked fine on it if I remember correctly. The slow charging (which is fixable flashing a boot.img from a rom with faster charging) and not having a working camera kept me from keeping it. I still wouldn't recommending going to KitKat unless you can persuade a Dev to make a fully functional KitKat rom. I seen a couple devs say they would but never followed through and with all the real devs working on marshmallow your not going to see any help there.

On PA with Xcelerate, Wi-Fi didn't work and also there was frequent android.media force closes. Not with other kernels though. Camera of course doesn't work.
I didn't stayed long on the ROM. But I did got a random reboot type once (in PA the phone simply dies and u have to hard reboot). Camera doesn't work of course.
Ivan's ROM is laggy af. The scrolling is laggy everywhere and etc. I don't like the custom kernels as the phone heats (little bit less with Xcelerate). And not quite sure whether the upcoming Xcelerate build will be compatible with MIUI.
Only MIUI is the usable Kitsap ROM quite actually. Would have been cool if Xiaomi upgraded the Android version, which is not gonna happen at all IMO

Which ROM are you using for the Marshmallow experience? How is it treating you.

I'm using Cyanpop V3.0 for Marshmallow, which I'm not so happy with.
BR soak test, pretty good so far.

I'm using the optimized version of official cm 13 by Vatsal. It is way better than all the mm roms out there, no major bugs, performance and battery backup is awesome...
Using CM Optimised Builds By Vatsal with Xposed. Its amazing.
Tested many but always come back to official soak test rom. But it's too early yet to judge custom roms. There is a lot of way to go IMHO.

Next time please use the search function.
Btw, guys this discussion is not worth. All roms out there are special in their own way.
I'm using Cyanpop and have been for a couple of weeks. I've not had a single problem or issue with it. Smooth, fast and battery life is decent.
