Which custom ROM to use with my LG D410? - LG Optimus L90

Sorry for what may be a stupid question, but what custom ROM would you recommend? I am currently running stock ROM (5.0.2) and it is driving me mad, as it is very slow (on Kitkat it was a lot better).
Btw, on antutu it has something like 16700+ score, is it okay?
The custom rom priorities:
1) fast and stable
2) support of the Cost save mode (or contact so sim bind) - Every contact is added along with assigned SIM when adding in phone book.
3) no problems with BT
3) no problems with GPS
4) good battery life
I did not follow the scene, so I feel a bit lost. So what ROM (based on the priorities above) would you recommend?
1) Cyanogen Mod
2) LineageOS
3) Resurrection Remix
4) Android Ice Cold
5) ... something else
Thank you very much!

For me, CyanogenMod 13 works the best. It is the fastest and the most stable ROM and many Roms are based off of it. I have tried other Roms multiple times but Cyanogen Mod is the one I keep coming back to. :good:

Hello,
I have an LG 90 D405n and I want to put a custom ROM on it but I can't get the phone in recovery mode.
I tried everything but the only thing he does is rebooting (until I release the power + Volume down Button).
What can I do?
Second question is: I want the most stable and fast ROM. Which one should I install and where can I find the needed files ?
regards,
Yves

[Q] Looking for custom ROM

Hi.
I'm tired of performance of my I9000 and I don't want to spend money for new phone.
I know that there's thousands of threads like that, but at most of them people recommend kitkat roms, which are really crappy.
I tried a lot of custom ROMs (most of them based on JB).
I'm using my phone as navigation, music player, a little bit web browser (no gaming) and of course phone things like sms.
Now I got GamerzROM based on 4.2.2 with swap on SD card and without OC (when I OC my phone, google maps + 3G makes it really hot).
I don't care of version of android, it can be CM7, stock or something. I need only stable rom for these basic things.
For now, using stock CM SMS app or google maps with swiftkey is almost impossible.
Thanks.
You're wrong about KK ROMs.
KitKat ROMs run faster than any other android version. I suggest doing a full wipe and trying out CM11 with a decent custom kernel.
And this is a question, which should be in Q&A forum.
So which one should I try? One of official CM or custom like SlimKat, MackayROM ? And which kernel ? Semaphore, Mackay ?
Thanks and sorry for posting in wrong category.

Did you try Resurrection Remix?
Sure, I tried it.
It doesn't see my sim card (i can't enter PIN and signal bar is blank). I tried to fresh install (from cm11), factory reset, format /system, clear dalvik etc., and it's not fast at all.
What type ROM do you like most?
for example a rom like Jelly Bean, Kit Kat, Or Fully Customizable roms
I know, why I got problem with Resurrection Remix - my imei was broken after flashing new rom (new partition layout or something), now when I restored it and give RR another try, it looks really nice (highly customizable rom and it's not as slow as I thought). I only got some problems with quick settings selection (it's little bugged ?).

I like customizable roms, but if it is at the expense of performance I would choose rom without any options.
For now I'm testing Resurrection Remix.

Did you flash RR straight from stock?
CM11 with Semaphore at 1.2Ghz Noop should be fast. Dont full the phone with a lot of apps and make use of the privacy settings to avoid apps like facebook keeping alive. If they kept, kill the services and processes of the app. GL!

[Q] Got a few questions about this phone

i can get this phone around $110 under contract, so i got a few questions about it
1. how the AOSP rom with this phone, is it ok for daily use
if not
2. can viperfx and titanium backup be used in stock rom (rooted of course)
and lastly
3. how was the performance with stock rom vs aosp
hi ! the aosp by Ivan is good, fast and stable.
you can customize the MiUi as u wish, no worries
on aosp the benchmark score lower than the stock rom. both are good , fast, battery lasts for me for 5 hours Screen On-TIme . thats freaking incredible .
My advice, if u want u can buy it, its a beast for this price, but the drawback is the kernel remember : no kernel -> no custom roms !
I didn't try the aosp rom, but i can tell you for sure that that titanium backup is perfectly working with the stock rom, i didn't try viperfx but if it is the type of app that is very complex and it modify many android files, it may not work.
And if you want to try some xposed modules, the normal "xposed installer" itsn't compatible with the miui. You have to download another app call "wsm tool".
I am using viper with MIUI v32 stable since its release. No problem.
The good thing is Viper + Dirac is awesome.

CM13 vs Ivan's AOSP & Install Questions

My MI3w is currently on MIUI 7 5.12.4 KK Dev ROM & I want to upgrade.
I need the basics to be reliably working, Camera, Calls, GPS, Gaming, Battery-life, etc.
So what is more stable/bugfree, an MM or lollipop rom? From what I have read, it seems like the marshmallow roms are fairly good at this point so I have been leaning towards either CM13 or Ivan's AOSP or possibly BeanStalk, any recommendations?
I have read a couple of posts that say the gaming & camera performance are better on lollipop, is that true?
I am also a bit confused on the whole partition resizing thing... Does that need to be done to use MM roms or can I flash as is? I read some things that seem to say CM13 works with the stock partition setup & Ivan's/MIUI MM requires expanding it, is that correct?
Also, I am still on the stock recovery so TWRP or CWM?
And can anyone suggest the best guide for upgrading from MIUI 7 KK? Some guides seem to assume you are already on a newer rom with custom recovery installed. And some seem to do the partition expansion while others don't mention it (I would prefer not to if it is not necessary).
Beanstalk 20-Jan build is pretty stable and can be used as daily driver.
AOSP/CAF based MM ROMs are the best. Ivan's one is good too. Though among all the ROMs I found CAF, CandySix great
Haven't used Ivan's rom but Beanstalk and Mokee latest build are pretty good.

1. from the MM roms I've seen, the base is already quite stable and matured, so the basics work on a decent maturity level. (I wouldn't know about the gaming performance though). In general the camera performance should not differ whether you use LP or MM, you can use the camera libs and apps with the same hardware.
I could recommend CAF, Slimbit, Beanstalk as daily drivers. The choice depends more on the additional features you would like to have. CAF and Slimbit has only the AOSP features, so I use Gravitybox to add what I like. But that's just personal preference.
2. the resizing: many roms need the "resized" system partitions already, the MM MIUI/ Ivan's MM AOSP need the "merged" partitions, an important difference in the update procedure.
I'd suggest you update to MIUI 7 5.12.17 CN Dev ROM, this should merge the partitions (better make a backup first). After that you can install any rom or recovery you prefer. (see also http://forum.xda-developers.com/xiaomi-mi-3/general/mi3-4-marshmallow-6-0-5-12-24-alpha-t3280037)
Thanks for all the info! I did not know that installing MIUI MM rom would take care of the partition merging for me. All I have to do is just flash it in recovery in the usual way? I decided to just go ahead and dive in last night & installed TWRP & the latest CM13 nightly. But the main reason I choose CM13 was its support for the older partition setup.
I am stupid happy with the speed & snappiness vs MIUI KK, night & day difference is not strong enough, day & the center of a black hole is a more fitting contrast. The only issue I am having is the camera. Google camera is a buggy unusable mess, it constantly is freezing up and most features like lens blur just cause it to crash, is it the same on other MM roms? Or maybe does it have something to do with me having to flash the gapps pico pack because it is all that would fit with unmerged partitions?
I am also not a fan of the CM13 native camera app, it does not seem to have a way adjust the preview size from 16:9 so you don't know what is actually in frame before you snap. I use my phone for pics & video a lot & I have read some things saying that the camera quality on MIUI is a lot better than other roms, how true is that?
I haven't found a all in one solution for the camera, typically I use "a better camera" or "lenovo super camera" (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2665714)

Alright First thing first... You'll need a extended partition table to install MM roms. The gapps packages are bit bulky so you need to be on extended partition table. Here you can find how to make extended partition table. As for beanstalk rom there is a tweak for the extended partition table, I'm not sure about other MM roms need that tweak or not, because I haven't tried those . AS for camera Beanstalk comes with new snapdragon camera comes with it's own tweak and it's pretty good and yes it's true that MIUI camera is good because of it's secret sauce, unfortunately the source is closed so developers are unable to port that sh*t. As for gapps open gapps pico or banks gapps are good. Rest is upto you and TWRP is recommended recovery.
As far as extending partition is concerned, use this method http://en.miui.com/thread-209941-1-1.html
This method is very easy and reliable and the partition table supports both miui and other mm roms.
Installing miui mm will give same partition table, but the process is cumbersome and you might face soft bricks if not done properly
I am mostly happy with CM13 but it is down to two issues that have me ready to try another rom. I am leaning towards giving BeanStalk a go.
CM13 issues
1. Google Camera is not usable. Can anyone confirm if it is working on BeanStalk or other roms?
2. Bluetooth does not consistently work. It will work a little while & then audio starts skipping & gamepads will not stay connected. The only fix seems to be rebooting but it soon stops working again. So can anyone confirm BT working on Beanstalk or another rom?

Yup!! It's Goole camera on Beanstalk but sometimes it's crashes during mode change.That is due to CM source code I guess, because it was working with previous builds. Bluetooth is also ,but Haven't checked with any gamepad though. It's working with normal file transfer. NFC is broken.
Beanstalk is my daily driver, it is pretty stable so far this is the best android 6.0 rom I have tried.

Easiest and most stable Mi5 setup

Hello everyone,
I have been seduced by the Mi5 and got one. Even I work in IT, I have never flashed a phone and actually didn't plan to do it when I bought the Mi5. I read that the original Chinese ROM had English in it.
So I was happy to just use this ROM in English and that's it (I'm not picky in term of UI).
But I had several bad surprised when I received it:
- many things are still in Chinese
- several applications, even if they are in English, present/search Chinese results (actually I should have thought about it earlier)
- I installed Google Play but some services keep on failing and several apps won't install or update
As a result, I'm finding myself having to flash the phone with a custom ROM in order to get something correct.
As explained in the title I would like to have some advises on which ROMs would be the easiest and most stable to have? I'm not looking the for most fancy or classy ROM. I just want something that would be stable, run smoothly GApps and popular apps (Facebook, WhatsApp, etc...) and works with the most vital/used features of the phone (Wifi, Bluetooth, finger-print, camera, etc...). I have seen threads about several ROMs (Cyanogen, Xiaomi.eu, Resurrection Remix, Official Global Multi, etc...) but don't know which one would suit me best.
Finally, I have done my homework before posting this message, and read how to flash a ROM (especially on the xda-university). Here are the general required steps I have noted:
Enter in USB debug mode
Install a custom recovery app? (I've seen you can flash them too?)
Download you customer ROM into the SDcard
Use the custom recovery to backup your phone (I actually don't need to backup since my phone is empty)
Install the rom by selecting the zip in the root of the SDcard
That said I have seen several other methods and terms on various threads talking about specific stages or the process.
People are "rooting" the phone. Is that necessary for what I want to do? I guess so.
People are are using "flashboot". I read it's another way to flash? What is best for the Mi5?
Please don't hesitate to redirect me to some guides/tutorials if there some fundamentals I have missed.
Thanks! :good:
U also need to look into unlocking the bootloader.

Hi,
I would recommend xiaomi.eu's rom : https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/6-6-30.32496/
It's fully translated, stable, includes the Google apps. I've tested a lot of roms, first on a Mi4c then on my Mi5.
If you're going for a MIUI rom (and not a CyanogenMod based one), this is the best in my opinion.
The roms comes in 2 versions : the stable (no root and updated every month or so) and the weekly one (with root and updated every week).
Installation is super easy, you just need to unlock the bootloader of your Mi5 first : http://en.miui.com/unlock/

Thanks for these helpful comments!
So would you say that Xiaomi.eu ROM is more stable than the CyanogenMod ROM? And it's more stable than the official MIUI Global ROM?
In terms of things not working at all, have Xiaomi.eu and CyanogenMod ROMs everything supported/working? That's what I worried about. I would be happy to flash a custom ROM but I would like to make sure it has most of the phone features working correctly (finger-print, bluetooth, wifi, GPS, camera, etc...).

CynaogenMod is, indeed, a bit less stable because it's a port and the kernel sources haven't been published yet by xiaomi so no optimisation on this side.
But CM is the way to go if you prefer android stock over MIUI's implementation.
Xiaomi.eu's rom are as stable as official ones but richer in features and optimized (see the list on the rom download page) and with much less bloatware. They remove a lot of Chinese specific apps from and make their rom Google apps compatible out of the box.
And yes, everything works correctly, especially if you install the stable version (the weekly is more prone to bugs because it's updated all the time).
At the end of the day, I would say it's the EU/US version of MIUI. If tomorrow Xiaomi want to sell their products in the western part of the world, this is probably the kind of rom they will put on their devices.

Thanks a lot for these advises. It sounds like Xiaomi.eu is what I'm looking for!
I'm glad if I could help. Let us know if this rom fits you
I too would recommend the xiaomi eu Rom. The cm one works well but if you want to use android pay it has to be the xiaomi one.

note 4 samsung sm910f trite qualcom with derpfest rom

i can only find one derpest download here
https://sourceforge.net/projects/derpfest/files/
can a custom rom like this be loaded onto a samsung note 4 SM910F, if someone has to try and its not suitable will it just not load, bits of it not work, or brick the fone. I nhave twrp installed so as long as I can get back to twrp I can go back to another rom.
Senior member please help, my knowledge is low, and really trying to understand this.
.....Has anyone loaded ANY pie style rom onto note 4 sm910F which is as fast as the original android 6.01, and where everything important, CAMERA bluetooth etc all work. If so may I have a link please. THANKyOOOOOO
I doubt it will be compatible with the Galaxy Note 4 but you could do a search from the link below. Good luck

There are 2 types of ROMS for the 910F:
a. stock - original mage by Samsung
b. custom roms AOSP based
Type b can be also divided in 2 -
b1. custom ROMs AOSP based
b2. custom ROMs ported from stock from other Samsung devices - but that involves HUGE amount of knowledge, time and resources spent to get them to work.
I suggest you go and READ and get as much info as you can to be able to understand these terms.
It's not hard, depending on your time and will.
As for your questions of derfest - it is an AOSP based ROM, but if no developer has built it on the official site, it's pretty hard to ask for it for the 910F. I saw no Samsung there.
"can a custom rom like this be loaded onto a samsung note 4 SM910F" - yes, there is Lineage, RR, Havoc, AEX, etc - go check them in the dedicated section of the forum for your device.
"Has anyone loaded ANY pie style rom onto note 4 sm910F which is as fast as the original android 6.01"
There are pie style ROMs (as said above, go check them) faster than android 6. Android 6 was whatever you want, but not fast.
However, there's no pie ROMs ported from other Samsung devices to 910F.
Good luck.
note 4 sm910F custom roms fast stable .. and thankyou
Thank you for reply, appreciated. yes reading as much as possible.
I have rooted, loaded twrp, via odin,
and loaded threee of the four custom roms you mention, Lineage, RR, Havoc, and will look for AEX,
rr res remix is running now, however is slower than android 6.01, 55 seconds for cold start and generally a little laggy, and the camera intermiitntly freezes. Im reading everything I can, but dont understand if the camera problem is , ... a bug on rr, a bug on some camera apps including the one supplied with pico gapps,, an app ive loaded interfering with it or what. Ive seen comments about dirty load and clean load, and wipe with twrp default suggestions before loading rr,.
The reason for wanting a custom rom, is its nice to have both my fones with similar operating systems, the method of getting to app draw, unlocking fone swpe direction, accessing swype down shade are so different android 6 to pie,
and having apps like sonos being able to run
and possibly volte running tho no rom so far has done this.
If the disadvantages of a custom rom outweigh android 6 Ill look at going back to stock, Samsung wont supply the firmware but will do it at their shop!!
Android 6 had one feature better than pie I think, shade accessed by one sype down, and the initial screan names like wifi data in words beneath each item, thats so helpful no pie type rom so far has this
Again big thankyou for reply.

1. camera can't be as stock - original blobs (coding) of the app are Samsung proprietary, not open source, it's very difficult to have the same quality
2. coming from stock to custom ROM it's always recommended to format data (wipe is not enough) - that includes the internal storage, so save it before you do it
The reason for wanting a custom rom, is its nice to have both my fones with similar operating systems, the method of getting to app draw, unlocking fone swpe direction, accessing swype down shade are so different android 6 to pie, and having apps like sonos being able to run and possibly volte running tho no rom so far has done this.
these are your preferences, no comment here - however, volte is quite a specific thing, not all developers are bothered/care about it - so again, take it or leave it
If the disadvantages of a custom rom outweigh android 6 Ill look at going back to stock, Samsung wont supply the firmware but will do it at their shop!!
you can go back to stock if you would have made a back-up of stock with the fresh installed TWRP
or use Odin to flash with PC
Android 6 had one feature better than pie I think, shade accessed by one sype down, and the initial screan names like wifi data in words beneath each item, thats so helpful, no pie type rom so far has this
Again big thank you for reply.
