Hi,
I'm deciding beetwen nexus 5 and xiaomi mi 3. Xiaomi has much better camera and battery and 64 gig storage option.
But I can't stand using MIUI.
How stable are CM and Slimkat on mi3 ? Same as official ROM ? No battery drain or lags ? I can't find how they were even possible to make without kernel sources and what Cancro is.
Leaked AOSP is better than custom ROMs ? Performance and stability wise od course.
Thanks !

hey, CM and other custom roms are still in beta stages. There are quite a few bugs major one being random reboots. But there is a leaked AOSP which i am using currently and is pretty solid & stable. I am coming from Nexus 4 & feel the development is pretty slow due to non availability of kernel sources & not many devs use this devices due to known reasons. Still the devs are doing a fantastic jobs with what's available. I personally recommend u to get an Nexus 5 if you have the budget because it is most dev friendly devices offering endless customizations & very very very long support. :good:
Thanks, there is no price difference for me, in fact 64 GB Xiaomi is 20 percent more expensive.
Random reboots here we meet again... Thats why I rejected buying LG G2.

Go with the Nexus 5. We do not know when (if) MI3 sources are gonna be released to the public and MIUI sucks big time. I am seriously thinking of selling the MI3 because I can't stand MIUI anymore. Lots and lots of bugs and no one does anything to solve them. When I bought the phone, my competitors were N5, MI3 and G2. I regret choosing the MI3.
I would say the exact same thing than reneftw.
I've bought the Xiaomi MI3 on a friend suggest after my old samsung GS2 tried to swim in a glass of water.
I've bought without loking to the rom ... miui is quite surprising to the first effect ... no google play (but the Mi Market) and a bunch of chinese application not translated
I miss my stable Cyanogen
I've tried the beta from Cancro but lot of app shutdown unexpectedly. Then the miui photo app is really nice considering the cyanogen one ...
So take the nexus 5 (I should have done this too :| ).
Go for the Nexus 5 if you want custom ROMs and overall awesome community support...
Go for the Mi3 if you are a gamer and do intensive stuff... The Mi3W (India) I have BLOWS away phones thrice it's price in terms of performance...but sadly, custom ROMs are scarce and buggy, AOSP leak is, well, stable, but too bland for me...As for MIUI, I started out apprehensive, but I've actually come to quite like it...if you like lotta customizability and a "hint" of iOS here and there...
Hey everyone,
There has been a lot of development going on recently for our device. So tell us what ROM and kernel do you use and why you like it.
It will help other people to know the features and USPs of other ROMs.
I am currently using Ivan's AOSP with Stock Kernel.
BTW Thanks @Cancro90 for your index.
I have now swtiched to Paranoid Android. Unfortunately, I cannot edit my poll vote...
Coming from Ivan's AOSP, it sure seems equally fluid, the battery life and performance is really good with Phantom Kernel.
I have used PAC ROM too, and it is a great ROM for those looking for a plethora of features.
MIUI v6? Nope, not my cup of android candy! Though a few people still use it.
I prefer my candy vanilla-like .
I've tried the AOSP and Cm ROMs, but I keep coming back to MIUI. I like the look and feel of MIUI, but the biggest thing is the camera. I can't stand the bad camera quality when compared to MIUI. I will miss the audio quality of AOSP/Cm ROMs as they sound so better. So it's almost a toss up between the two. If/when Xiaomi fixes the audio quality (hopefully with lollipop) I will be truly happy.
Also, for me, I got a Xiaomi phone to experience MIUI at its best, just like I would get a Nexus device to have the best stock Android experience. Sometimes I'll feel like going to AOSP, but I really like how MIUI feels on a Xiaomi phone.

You can use IVAN Rom. Everything perfect except HDR picture. But customization is very less, however you can use xposed.

currently I'm using Ivans AOSP 5.1.1 on stock kernel after using the MIUI6 developer rom for quite some time.
MIUI6 PRO:
- gorgeous design,
- the best camera app for MI3
- plenty of features.
- stable
MIUI 6 CON:
- comparably slow and battery draining
- full of bloat-ware
I'm still testing the AOSP,
so far it seems stable (some random call drops) , is fast and responsive, consumes less battery and of course no bloat-ware
It seems most of the users use Ivan's AOSP...

Ahah yes MIUI Pro rom has the better camera with unleashed function (I posted it monthes ago on miui forum and a way to use it on chinese MIUI rom or other international MIUI. For camera with custom rom I'm using OppoCamera (yes HDR still broken) that allows me long exposure, zero shutter lag, manual iso and so on. Sadly HDR still broken and it's so useful function, Manual focus is broken too.
Actually I'm using Paranoid rom with stuxnet+ kernel, which is a great combo.

I haven't use Cosmic - OS so I can't compare with it.
Currently I'm using AEXmod OREO by DennySPB. It really stable as daily drivers and get routine weekly update, some people report that this ROM doesn't have VOLTE support, I can't verify it because VoLTE not supported at my place.
Sorry for my language too amazing for understanding. [emoji28]

JDCteam 7.1.2 wins hands down as far as speed (and stability) go. I've tried several other roms and always kept coming back to JDC. It's the fastest and most fluid rom by far, and it's bug free. There is also oreo beta version that is equally fast and fluid, but it's still beta and doesn't have all the features so I'm sticking with 7.1.2 as a daily driver. There is also bb kernel for JDC which I have tried but didn't notice a big difference in performance or battery between stock kernel that comes with JDC rom, so I am using stock. Newer firmware as well (v7.12.14 currently).
I am surprised that people here often recommend some roms that either are not fully functional (PA 7.3.1 doesn't have call volume adjuster for example), or that are utterly slow (latest AEX 7.1.2 for example, very laggy). I don't mean to bash the mentioned roms, I respect the people that develop them, but I wouldn't recommend them as daily drivers.

Whats your opinion on LOS? I have used LOS several times and briefly Mokee Rom. But I kept coming back to MIUI Developer. Is JDC better than LOS at present. I use only one phone so stability is a huge concern.
Great if you can share screenshot of this rom for comparing to the stock one.

Yes. From my experience JDC is more fluid than LOS and LOS based roms, and I have not experienced any instability so far.
I always do a clean flash, currently on last JDC 7.1.2 / Gapps pico / v7.12.14 firmware

I almost forget with JDC Nougat, it's been long time since I open xda for searching ROM, it's good nougat ROM with minimal costumization.
Yes the latest official AEX with stock kernel not so good, try with Nagatobimaru kernel and you will get good performance.
What I mean in my post is AEXmod by DennySPB, It does not release at xda but at telegram. Maybe you can try, for first time reboot it little bit slower because app optimization, but after reboot it gives me good performance and battery life comparing with nougat based ROM.

There's official version of RR ROM in xda, but it is final version, so won't be updated anymore. Here is the link :

In my previous post, it is unofficial version. The developers still maintain the ROM and update it if there are any changes on RR base.

last time I used PA ROM, I didn't noticed any annoying bugs, it's stable for daily use.
But it only has little costumization.
For battery life, any nougat ROM have almost same battery life, just little difference 30 minutes SOT usually.

Which ROM do you suggest for battery life? My Mi5 is a year and a half old and the screen time is only 4h on LOS, on a youtube video of 15 min the battery discharge of 5%, is that normal? PS. The bringhtness is set to 30%
I just tried dot os, and im in love with it!! It almost as same as jdc in term of speed, i hope it got a final update where the bugs is all gone, i found a tiny bugs that is not affect performance such as cannot change user's pic, setting in dot extras forced closed when tried to turn off camera sound, and many settings that require to be turned off and on before it works properly, but this is the best rom since JDC in my opinion, hmmmm, havent tried that rr tho, is it so different from that laggy official one?
What I can say, since I want a light but full working ROM, is to go with Xiaomi.eu ROM which has all Miui functions without unnecessary app and battery life, speed, ram management are way better. Unlike other ROM you have not to fix many things not working and set stuff. For example many roms got problems with camera (front or back) so you have to find a solution and since I want things already working I put Xiaomi.eu ROM on my phone and I can be safe.
But actually I'm thinking to try Miui 7 last version because it was the fastest and with better battery consumption. It misses a lot of new features which slow the phone.

I should say that I agree with you. Best ROM considering speed and stability is the xiaomi.eu rom. But LOS and JDC Nougat ROMs are also stable and bug free. If you want a near stock android experience you should try one of them. LOS is better imo as they provide weekly builds. otherwise better to go with the xiaomi.eu ROM.
I have a bad image retention with my display so sadly I'll have to stick with LOS for the rest of the future of my mi5 ....

I'll be using my Mix Max 2 for a GPS device, like in a Tesla. Permanently tethered to power and headphone jack. I usually run a couple Xposed modules to make changing songs easier, and things like that. Would the Pixel Experience ROM suit me best for its stability and lack of tweaks?

it depends what people like to focus on. some people prefer frequent updates, other prefer battery life, others performance or theming options or customization options or stability, etc.
thats why ull always hear different opinions from different users so whenever someone says "this is the best rom!" my first question is always: in what regard is it best?

And also please tell me benefits of using gapps and microg please.
MicroG and Gapps are sets of Google applications.
Any Gapps has nothing to do with performance of game or the device. Gapps are of your choice which and how many Google applications you want in your device from MicroG/nano/pico/micro and so on further.
To have better or good performance you should be looking at the specific ROM and it's performance and how optimized it is for gaming or any other specific tasks.
You can opt out for custom kernel to have little more good performance at gaming.
There are several kernels are available choose the one best suit for your needs. There are kernels which are made for gaming/to have good battery backup/to have good performance or both. So choose wisely if you want to use custom kernel. You should be looking at custom kernel if the ROM provided kernel or the ROM itself doesn't meets your expectations.

Please tell me best rom and kernal for playing pubg.
Currently i am on havoc os .
So which kernel should i use.
I'm a heavy gamer and use my Redmi 4X mostly for games. I have SyberiaOS which is fantastic with games, no changes in kernel or ROM itself, just turned off some apps at boot. I flashed with nano Gapps but I use Google apps all the time so I installed almost all of them from the Play Store. I tried Pixel Experience for a few days and despite less RAM usage I couldn't get used to it, I missed some features and couldn't get as pleasant game experience as on Syberia ROM. I Play Guns od Boom which is also heavy on RAM almost the same as PUGB and got lag on PE.

After changing kernel to wolf kernel
Pubg gameplay becomes smooth
But device heats like hell.
I read the whole thread about Havoc-OS because I wanted to try it and found out that it may cause extensive heating that's why ultimately I didn't flash it. I've never experienced heating issues on 4X but of course it gets warmer when playing games or movies but not that much it should concern me (although that's subjective. My school mate drinks boiling water tea and it's nothing to her. ).
