I need a stable 6.0 or 7.0 rom - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i need a simple stable rom ... any recommendations ?

The last 7.0 factory image. Should be really stable.

maybe "Pure Nexus" ?

The latest pure nexus is not so stable for me. Adaptive brightness messing up after waking from sleep is bugging me the most. Still, I like pure nexus compared to rest of the roms. Cheers

+1 for this rom

I'm running cyanogenmod 14.1 right now. Its pretty stable, except that there's no viper4android or CM themes yet which I reaaaally really love...
.. Hmfh.... ok I'm going back to cm13. Thanks for the question!

Stock ROM will be the most stable. Sideload it and you should be good to go.

I've tried several of them and at the end... I can confirm Nitrogen OS is the best and absolute stable.

Cm 14.1, DU 7.1.1 and Nitrogen 7.1.1 all run stable and are ready for dd in my eyes.

Arise sound mod works for cm 14.1 so you're good for v4a

Nitrogen is reportedly by some as the most Stable 7.1 ROM. I've used if for over a month with zero ROM related issues as a daily driver. Seriously, not one issue

I was going the busybox way, but couldnt get it installed. Anyway I'm on CM13 now for theaming! Go CM themes!!

I've used stock, pure nexus and CM 14.1. all of them are stable, but for me the best option was and still is CM.
CM has only some minor isues, but they are not a deal bracker for me. This is my recommendation to you.
Happy flashing

Pure Nexus is what I settled on while working as a delivery driver in a city that I didn't know. Stability was essential beyond just "daily driver" levels as any hiccup that might just be an annoyance in my personal life was costing me time and potentially money while working.
(With that said, I did not trial Nitrogen and based on what folks are saying about it above I will look into it.)
Also keep in mind the ROM is just the basis for a stable system. Everything that is installed or modified after the flash will also have a potential or definite impact on the system's stability.

I'm a fan of AICP, has been daily driver for 18 months. Up to 7.1.1 now. I used it on my Xperia Z3 before the Nexus 6.

I have tried nitrogen, rr, octo and a few others and for me all are reasonably stable but for me at least all have horrible battery life compared to a well tweaked 6.x rom

Looking for a good, fast and stable (with possibility of some customisations) ROM

hello all,
I'm looking for a good, fast and stable (with possibility of some customisations) ROM...
I was with stock until last week. I've now unlocked with htcdev.com (S-ON) and rooted.
I'm currently with Android Revolution HD 93.0 for the past 4 days.
but the rom is very laggy, takes a lot of time to load maps in google maps, to switch between apps, to open / close apps ...
not sure what I can do there... so what would you guys recommend?
my m7 htc:
android version is 5.0.2
sense 6.0
build 7.19.401.30
kernel 3.4.10
Thank you
i'm looking for that too, i think the best option we have is to find a stable nougat rom for daily use.

I'm no expert... but I'm not too confident in android 7 for this phone... maybe I'm wrong...
Well, waiting on the expert suggestions.
TeslaOS Rom is the only Android N Rom without any bugs as far as i know.

and Wake Control Kernel https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=673368273298917630
I can recommended AICP Rom also and LineageOS 14.1. Both roms are really stable and fast. If you prefer stock roms than I can recommend InsertCoin rom or ARTMOD with ElementalX or Xceed kernel
Sent from my One using XDA Labs
i think i gonna give a try to lineageOS 14.1 , i saw many good feedbacks...
Lineage 14.1 is the best for me. I tried resurrection remix but wasnt cool as lineage 14.1
I'm happy with AICP. For me it's stable, fast, has descent customization options and nightly updates. I've tried all available Nougat ROMs and have no complaints about AICP.
resurrection remix 5.82 also not bad. one of the best rom with lot of customizations.
I've been running ViperOne 9.0.0 since it started. Runs well with lots of customisation. Can sometimes slow down depending how much space you have i think but overall very stable with ElementalX kernel imo. It's been my daily driver forever.
I've not tried nougut due to no xposed yet so i can't comment which roms for that.
I can attest that the most stable ROM as far as I can see right now for my M7 is the good ole CM 12.1 Lollipop rom with nano gapps. I use a 2015-10-6 build date release I had downloaded some time ago before CM locked shop. I get the longest battery life, best performance in games, most available RAM, and just the most stable behavior overall. I play Pokemon Go so having an unrooted rom is essential for me. However you can unroot CM based roms I've found easily in general. This time around i just installed iSu.apk (root switcher app I found here on xda), enabled it and restarted my phone which causes you to lose root (which I don't mind).
I've tried several of the Nougat ROMS including Lineage OS 14.1, Resurrection Remix N7 and SlimRom. They all have issues surrounding making and receiving calls for my M7. Some persons have said in the forums they don't have issues where that's concerned though. But i see a lot of persons reporting they do. My phone would freeze and restart after I came off a call at times on Nougat. Regarding Marshmallow... worse. So yes i recommend CM 12.1

Do i have any problems when i change to nougat? I don't want bugs. Btw sorry for my bad english i use translate program...
I believe I will try AICP 7.1.1 on the M7 as I've recently tried it on an LG G2 D802 & it was fantastic breath of fresh air. Granted I didn't test every function but the speed great, smooth & not a single crash so far anyway. I'm very pleased with the Stability of N so far as I also have them on some original Nexus 7 Tab's and it runs nicely.

Well I'm no longer passing the SafetyNet tests since Monday and as such I can no longer play Pokemon Go. Google must have updated their code. So I may just end up trying AICP...

The Bug people are talking about only happens if you end a call with speaker active. The next call has no sound until you end the call without speaker (next call will have sound) or reboot the phone. This Bug is present on all N roms.
Any chance to have Android O after release?

best custom rom is?

which is the best custom rom for nexus 6 with good battery life?
There is no such thing as best rom. Go try them all and decide
thats a good question because i was wondering the same thing as new phones come out sadly development for the nexus 6 has slowed down but what are you guys currently running rom and kernel?
I'm running the latest version of crdroid along with sigma kernel and my nexus is purring along smoothly but interested in hearing what everyone else is using
Using Tesla now, was on Dark ROM with B14CKB1RD kernel. Both are great, Tesla has Magisk built into it, so no need for additional flashing and more features. Dark ROM is equally as good and has OTA updates.
Really depends on what your kernel settings are for these two ROMs, but battery life is great.
PureNexus or Dirty Unicorns. Properly updated, a lot of features, stable and the battery life is perfect...

weekly RC or official wich?
I haven't tried some of the newer ROMS yet, but my favorites are crDroid and SIX Rom

Well, PN has only official ones.
For the moment I'm running the (last) official monthly build of DU. Those RC builds tend to have more bugs, so I simply don't use them.
It's all subjective but my two cents is (are) I always go back to Nitrogen. Recently tried Six and that was nice too.

Please suggest a rock solid ROM (Any Android version)

As the title says, Can anyone please suggest me a really rock solid ROM? My mom use this device, So i cannot personally experiment much myself. Any Android version will work.
I'm currently using XenonHD but it have some bugs like Force closing of Google now launcher (sometimes), Bluetooth don't work for me, Wifi keeps getting disconnected after sleep, Some apps freeze.
I've also tried RR rom (both official and unofficial) few months back but due to proximity bug, Apps force close (quite often on official one), I've discontinued it.
It would be a great help if anyone could post their review about bugs and performance and battery backup of Daniel_hk's Lineage & Carbon build and Vibe_UI final (Or other versions) or any other rom you use as a daily driver.
Your help will be appreciated.
Thanks.
Go for lineage
If you need the most stable one than i think the lineage os 14.1 .according to my exp the lineage os has got the minimum number of bugs with no major ones. As i too had the same experience with the RR rom when i used to use it i can clearly say that the lineage os 14.1 is much better than RR rom...

Best rom for mi 5?

i have used lineageos 14.1 on my mi 5 before, but it used to stuck sometimes and was not smooth and it used to lag when i try to record videos so i switched back to miui. i am looking for the best rom for mi 5 which dosent lag or hang and the camera, video recording works smoothly.i dont change roms frequently so i want a rom which i can install and use it for a long time without any problems.can anyone please suggest me a rom?
Thanks
I think the best rom is viperOS
Which build of LOS 14.1 you use? I use the latest build and everything is smooth, much smoother than MIUI.
Masik is awesome loving it i have tried alll the oreo and nougout rom but nothing comes close to that rom only cons are some of xposed modules doesnt work but other than that magisk is a total winner
I think you must install AOSP based ROMs. I am using ViperOS 3.1.1 and it is running smooth.
I recommend you to try Omni rom or dirty unicorns rom with gcamera & ruthless pixel launcher for an outstanding experience on Mi5. Both are fast,smooth & battery friendly.
Lineage is also very stable but DU 8.1 has many useful customizations built in.

Stable Treble ROM

hi i own a mi 4x as a backup device and currently its on PixelExperience (non-treble) ROM. I have to use the device for several days and i would like to flash a Treble ROM. So i dont have alots of time to test various ROMs. So what im asking is kindly point me some most stable Trebelized ROM. i dont mind its weather 8.1 or 9.0. i wanna use a stable ROM.
Thanks
I hope you are referring to Xiaomi Redmi 4X if so then go for DOT OS 2.4 or HAVOC OS both ROM are based on Android 8.1 are much stable and have decent battery life. (haven't tried them with custom kernel but have learned that they give good battery life with it)
Android Pie based ROMs are quite good too but they do have bugs but can be use as for daily use ROM.
I am currently using official HAVOC OS 2.0 based on Android Pie it does have bugs too but they aren't major ones.
Sorry for the off-topic, Oreo Havoc OS is not on XDA, correct? I've searched and couldn't find it, only Pie version. Is this the Oreo version you mean @metelhammer?
https://sourceforge.net/projects/havoc-os/files/santoni/
Yes, this is the official Havoc OS download link.
Havoc 2.0 is based on Android Pie which is -> Havoc-OS-v2.0-20180903-santoni-Official.
All other old zips are based on Android Oreo.
As for now only first zip is Android Pie and all old builds are Oreo ones.
Later they should be named as Havoc OS 2.0.
Everything clear, thank you for your help!
Do you find Havoc 2.0 stable enough for daily use?
Your welcome ?
Yes, it is quite good for daily use certainly it has bugs but they aren't major ones.
Compared to Android Oreo based Havoc OS it has less customization but that's totally fine considering it is first build.
I am using it since when it released.
Battery life is quite decent not that good, I get around 6 hours of SOT and I haven't tried any kernel with it so it might give good battery backup with it.
On mobile data as usual like all other custom ROMs battery life isn't that good.
ROM is smooth though and can be use as daily driver.
Thank you very much for all the info @metelhammer
I've tried Havoc 2.0 last night, but my microphone didn't work, so I went back to Havoc Oreo, everything fine for now.
I think I'll just wait for a stable enough Pie build, can't wait for it though :highfive:
Microphone didn't worked that's strange, it is working fine here.
No problem I am too waiting for future update, cheers!
I have tried most roms on redmi 4x. My recommendation is Lineage 15/14
