Which ROM for most settings and customizability? - OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers

Which ROM should I install if I want the most amount of settings and ways to customize things?
Some additional thoughts...
Does one even need a custom ROM these days, or can most things be changed using "Xposed installer"?
Are there any drawbacks using a custom ROM?

1. RR is a good choice IMO.
2. More features to play with. Themes. More updates.
3. Xposed doesn't exist on Nougat.
4. Nope except not be able to use full stock features. Stability? It depends on the ROMs and the maturity of the Android version.

Oxygen OS apps (but you can get a port version for Camera and Gallery)
Dark UI (but you can flash a ROM supporting Substratum)
...
I don't remember OOS well and since I have a preference for custom ROMs over stock firmware I can't give you many reasons to stay on OOS. If you want to have the latest Android version, some day you will have flash a custom ROM.

I've spent ten minutes trying to figure out which one is the official (or best) version of Resurrection Remix. Can you point me in the right way?
The one in your signature says it has a pirate-icon if you install pirate stuff. And while I may not do that, I still don't like the idea of that.
So which RR would you recommend?

Both versions have this anti piracy measure I think.
I recommend the unofficial builds since I'm using them ?
It has extra features such as delta updates, signature spoofing support,... and the dev is always available to help and answer our questions.

You could have just flashed the ROM days ago, and have decided yourself; instead of waiting for others to dictate what you will or will not like. And just because someone recommends it, doesn't mean you will even like it.

Agreed.

Agreed nicesoni ash has the best build in my opinion and the dev is great and very supportive of the rom and it's users. And there are lots of unofficial builds for nicesonis rom but you only need to install the latest one.

There is no "best ROM". These questions are generally frowned upon as well. What works best for me, may not work at all for you. As @simms22 said previously, there are a wide variety to choose from. I suggest reading the OP of any ROM you choose, and seeing if it has the features you need, then flash that ROM and try it for yourself. Also, read the users comments within the ROM thread to see what their experiences are. The only way to find the best ROM for you, is to try several and decide for yourself.
Good luck!

Stock rooted hard coded without Xposed and GravityBox. LMAO
My personal two favorites are Euphoria OS and Benzo Rom (which is based off Euphoria) mainly because it contains Cyanogenmod features while keeping an AOSP base. Also I love how Viper4Android is built in to Benzo Rom. However it comes down to you on what you want to install.
Nice ROM to try
I have installed a Rom called "pure nexus " with modular gapps who have nice preinstalled support of layers and is very stable fast and battery saving and i have personalized with someone layers to remenber playstation.
Euphoria I just try but is very instable, app crash and home crash..
I tryed chroma but isn't a nice ROM for me because have low costumization but is good and fast.. All ROM I tryed have a support for not encrypted I hate it
Gravity and framework i have installed on my all phone but i don't like the release alpha for LP because when i need to install a next release for ROM with bug fix framework need to re installation and all app in the ROM need to optimized..

that was a subjective question and this is an inappropriate response
it depends on what you want out of a ROM and what your stock ROM is like. if a stock ROM doesn't suit your needs, sometimes there is an appropriate ROM for you. i have rooted every samsung device i have ever had and improved my experience greatly.
when you find a good developer, custom ROMs can be better. stock is usually most stable

I wonder what you want out from a rom?we are using/talking about OOS and that's suit my needs(It has all that is missing in stock android).
Sorry but Samsung software is garbage.
Midomad said:
As Android is further refined, there are fewer and fewer reasons to use a custom ROM for most users,custom ROMs will always be relevant to entry-level/midrange smartphone users, or those who still use older devices, that aren't receiving official updates from OEMs anymore.

OOS seems to have everything i want in a ROM too.
that being said, i may find features that i want and don't have. my moto has pretty much everything i could want, but updating to a custom 7.1.1 increased the performance of my device so much that i can't imagine going back.
i haven't used any custom ROMs for OP3T yet, but from what i'm reading we have some really good devs and it is worth a shot. for instance, RR offers customization to such granularity that i will try it because that customization leaves me feeling like i actually own the device (basically the opposite of what apple does with their products)

Best rom for 3T?

Wjat is best rom for Oneplus 3T and why? But I want rom where xposed is working.
No ROM is 'the best'
You have numerous options to test and see for yourself which one suits your needs the best. You can go either for stock (based) or AOSP ROMs, it's all about what you are looking for. Also no choice is bad here - all ROMs for 3T are of really outstanding quality and not a single one will let you down. Just play around for a couple of days, try out different ways to go and pick your favorite.
If it's about me - latest stock rooted with Magisk is just enough. Oxygen OS is supremely optimized and the system is almost pure Android but with all the essential flavors AOSP lacks.
Fully agree with the previous comment. If there was a "best" ROM for everyone, we would all be using it, and there wouldn't be a need for any ROM except that one. What features are important in a ROM, is going to vary from person to person. The performance and stability (often a question "which ROM has the best performance?") is also going to vary drastically depending on how you as an individual use the phone, apply further tweaks, etc.
Your best bet is to browse through the ROMs, select a couple or few that look like they meet your preferences, and flash them, and try for yourself (be sure to make a TWRP backup of your current setup before flashing any ROMs, so you can easily revert); and see what works best for you.

No i don't have, bought this phone on this week's monday. Immediately rooted and flashed twrp, Now I have Resurrection Remix, but it's little bit buggy and not filling my expectations. (Sry for bad english)
I'm looking for a really good ROM, too.
Stability, everything should work fine. Don't want to clean flash every few months.
I don't need to customize every colour of every object. Need a perfect ROM for using it every day.
Any recommendations?
best rom official rr or the one from varun himself (g+)
no rom is the best.
you have to try some of them and choose one !
i tried at least more than 10 roms + defualt kernels and custom kernels.
and compare them together and flashed best based on my usage ! ( your usage may vary and of course other roms is best for you )
but :
if your main concern is not heavy camera usage and want stability + battery + xposed , i suggest you Sultanxda CM13 rom.(which i am using now.)

RR is a customized LineageOS with lots of extra options. The launcher however, you decide over no matter what ROM your running. I'm also using Nova on stock LOS.
Lineage OS from sultanxda. Stable, best battery life, best camera, no bloat, not so many unnecessary options

Ya when I was running it I had some force closes and some lag. But I'm not looking for the "best" ROM BC that's going to differ for everyone I'm just seeing what ppl are running.
I decided to flash sultans linage. I'll give up the customization for stability.

Yes, it is. Call it what you want: most popular, favorite, best ROM. It's still all just the same question. Everyone has massively different preferences and needs, and your experience will vary drastically depending on how you as an individual use your phone. Asking strangers to make a decision for your is not only useless, it is also bizarre. You clearly already have the knowledge/ability to try various ROMs (as you stated you did). So leaving the decision to something as arbitrary as a stranger's whim (or a ROM's popularity) is just strange.
I'd also caution against using a ROM, just because it's widely used and "most popular". Plenty of times in the past, the ROM that worked best for me, was one that was less popular, and more obscure. You do yourself an injustice by ignoring these "hidden gems".
For the first time after using a smartphone, i decided to settle with Stock ROM. For me, it gives the best UI and a lot of useful options. I don't even need to tell that the Stock camera is far better than any other apps used in other Custom ROMs. Battery is really amazing too considering my way to use the cellphone( Facebook app, the great battery villain is full time here in use).

ROM Lover
I love trying out new ROM's.
Fot OP3T i have tried Oxygen official, Oxygen Beta, Lineage & Ressuruction.
To me Oxygen beta since May has become really good, improved battery a lot.
Stock is always better
What about paranoid android?
Dear Sir,
If quick update is the requirement, the Lineage is the best and I have to say unofficial sultan 14.1 is the same as he is also quick but If you are installing sultan 14.1 for only battery back up then I think you should have a look with custom kernel such as franco and elemenatlx which are great in battery back up.
But for me and also with some other friends, stock oxygen is the best as camera is the main priority for me. For other features magisk is readily available.
Thanks to all developers for the support time to time.

[Question] What android 10 roms do you recommend?

Hi everyone.
I have a OnePlus 3T (obviously) running the original, stock, OxygenOS version 9.0.6
I decided to move on to Android 10, using one of the available custom roms.
My question is, what roms do you recommend? in my previous phones, my go-to rom was Cyanogenmod, which I understand has turned to LineageOS. I looked at Lineage but I understood that the android 10 version of it for the oneplus 3t is experimental, so i'd rather something that is "official".
So, which roms do you recommend, and why?
Thanks in advance
Here you have a list of all ANdroid 10 roms for OP3/3T.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...o-roms-kernels-available-3-t3688139?nocache=1
Each of them can be described as "stable". The main question is which features you value. I like minimalist and very battery friendly roms. Customizing is not so important for me.

I remember an old "rule" about roms, and i'm not sure if this is still true, but it's "you can't have them all".
So i'd say I prefer customizing and,like you said, something that is battery friendly. Which rom do you use?

Already I haven't OP3T, but I was using LOS 17.1 and I could use Android Auto. However, I couldn't use my bank app.
I recomend you that you search and read on others ROMs.
I'd like to revive this thread and extend it to Android 11 ROMs. I see there are five in the list that's linked to in the first answer of this thread. Can anyone recommend one, from personal experience? After a terrible time on Lineage 17.1 this summer, I fell back to the official 9.0.6, and I don't want to go through that again with Android 11.
It's annoying to be coming up on a year without support on my OP3t when I'm running Android 10 with the September 2020 security patch on my 2013 Nexus 5. I bought this phone in 2017 because I thought it would continue to be useful long after OnePlus stopped official support, but it hasn't worked out that way.
Any wisdom out there? I don't want to buy a Pixel 5 and throw the 3t in a drawer.
