What's the rom with the lowest battery usage/the best SOT? - Xiaomi Mi MIX Questions & Answers

Hey, I generally don't care which rom I'm using as long as everything works and it's at least Nougat or Oreo.
So all I want to know is, what's the best rom when it comes to power usage?
I would guess it's either the stock unstable or Resurection Remix, but I would love to hear your opinion.

Fastest ROM right now for the galaxy s3 mini (GT-I8190)?

My galaxy s3 mini lags a lot. So I flashed TWRP yesterday.
Can anybody give me a good recommendation?

Virginity v14 is the best rom for gt i8190

Only problem with Stock Roms (Virginity v14, Project Noble, Ronin) is that they all have this unpredictable Snapchat bug. Quite often Snapchat (both pictures and videos) zoom in like 50% which makes the text often not visible. This is the main reason I stopped using these ROM's.
Virginity V14 also drops 10-30% battery overnight when device is turned off.
My answer to the best s3 mini ROM (i8190) is the following: (not in any particular order)
Omni 5.1.1 (20160125)
Snapchat video's are green. But I don't use this often, so no problem to me.
Resurrection Remix 6.0 (20170305)
Both have great battery life, great performance and offer great features since its LP and MM. Don't assume these ROM's are worse than STOCK because they are 5.1 and 6.0, these are part of THE BEST ROM'S I've come across since years.

I installed omni 5.1.1 (20160125) and i saw its camera was not working. It was just green screen. I couldn't test its battery life. But i installed omni 5.1.1 (20160325) which is recommend by some users and I saw it has battery consumption as well. How can I overcome it

Earlier Omni 5.1.1 releases have insane battery consumption in my opinion. Right now I'm using Omni 4.4.4 (20151230) and it's the best one I ever used. Great battery life & awesome performance.
Also I've installed FB Lite and Messenger Lite instead of the traditional ones. These apps BARELY use any RAM. It's like 5-10 MB when it's running, compared to 80mb with most recent Messenger. Big recommendation!

first of all thank you for your recommendation, and yeah I have used omni 4.4.4 (omni gamer version) for a while. It was perfect kitkat rom that I have ever used but I want to use lollipop from now on. Isn't there any lollipop rom which have stabilility and long life battery?

Any ROM with a newer Android version than KitKat is basically getting too heavy for this old device, though it's nice to have
To answer your question, I'd recommend Resurrection Remix 6.0 (20170305) over Omni LP. I haven't used that ROM with FB and Messenger Lite, but I have no doubt it will be even better!

You are right and I really thank you for your advice. I am using omni 5.1.1 now, it is the most stable lollipop rom that I have ever seen but its battery performance is bad. Therefore I will try rr 6.0. But as I know rr is not smooth on our device because of customization. Is this version smooth?

Very!
I always thought of RR the same until I started using it. Ofcourse you shouldn't tweak every option you can find. The only thing I change on every ROM is the battery icon...
The phone lagged very rarely as i remember, but that's probably because there were 5 apps running in the background. Clearing your recents every now and then is probably the best way to keep your phone running smoothly.

then, my the last question is about battery life :laugh: how its battery life? for example I experience a terrible battery consumption in omni 5.1.1. I charged to phone %100 and then I sleep for 7-8 hours. When I wake up I saw it consumed almost %30-%35 of battery. Sometimes it consumes more. Do you have any idea about its battery life?

It's awesome man
For shear performance i'd have to put forward Omni LP with Fkernel with OC and Nova Thor settings. Unfortunately Fkernel takes some configuring (init.d script) to get Nova thor settings to work. I believe Nova Thor settings was removed from latest version. I never quite got the stability with this setup. As for Omni LP and battery issues you must boot in twp and with battery at 100% delete the batterystats.bin. This made all the difference.

kitkat roms would be more stable. 4.4.4 is best i think. upper versions, even lollipop, are slow

Somehow I have always had that issue with all the Nougat 7.1.2 (LineageOS 14.1) that I have tried, even with phone completely turned off it drained so fast!!! For me battery life was OK with Marshmallow 6.0.1 so I keep going back to that one. For my not so fancy needs and stability, I prefer either Resurrection Remix 20170531 or LineageOS 13.0 20170328 stable for now. Also current/latest Nougat 7.1.2 RR 20171220 and LineageOS 20171215 seem to have issues (like not booting) so you'd have to wait for newer versions of those if you want to try. I use a black background and set timeout of screen to 30 sec. instead of 1 min. default.
Fastest ROM 5.1 por superior now?

Best battery efficient ROM?

Hi, i don't know if it's just me(i guess so) but after nougat update, my phone's battery life became worse. I have the 920T version and if with marshmallow i was charging it once at the end of the day, now i'm charging it twice a day and i didn't use any new app after the update. I used once the nougat version of the ported note 7 rom and the battery life was even better than on marshmallow so now i feel a bit confused why the official update for me has this result.... do you recommend to install a custom rom to fix this issue or there is another way(which i don't know why i didn't try) to fix the battery issue? thanks
Dont expect much of Nougat, the firmware is full of bugs, however you can try a custom ROM and see for yourself, everybody has a different phone usage and your battery also depends of your carrier quality in your zone. Ive tried almost every nougat ROM . and the best battery-friendly are NDroid-ModV7(by far, but wait to V8) and DrKetans N8, Hope it gets better

Best Oreo ROM

Heeey Guys!!!! I just want to find out which Oreo ROM is suitable for me to update to as I'm currently on NucleaROM 7.12 which is great.... My requirements are good battery life (like how NucleaROM was), stable and it needs to have the basic functions like FP should be working etc(I dont mind even if features like HDR isnt working and others )
More or less it needs to be a daily driver with good battery life....
I also want to know in which Oreo ROM is the ambient display included? Thank You guys in advance and I hope you guys help me out...
I used and tried several oreo roms and currently on pixel experience.
Oh god, it doesn't have idle battery drain like aicp, lineage 15.
Some less drain in aosp extended and gzosp, but minimum in this one.
Ambient display is same in all, pure nexus type while validus and pixel experience allows always on mode too

For nougat it gives max 3-4 hour SOT, because my battery has ruined without no gaming, only mobile data, WhatsApp, Telegram, Line, Facebook. With total time on 16 hour.
For OREO it gives max 4-5 hour SOT, because my battery has ruined without no gaming, only mobile data, WhatsApp, Telegram, Line, Facebook. With total time on 21 hour.

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.

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 ....

What rom(Pie) do you guys use as a daily driver?

Hey guys, can you recommend me a custom pie rom for Oneplus 3T? I have been reading about Pixel Experience Rom & LineageOS. I'm unsure about which one to go. I mostly use my phone for messaging, calls and reddit/instagram/quora and stuff. I don't use my phone for gaming. So, what rom would you guys suggest for a daily driver.
Thanks!
For a long time Msm Extended. Stable and full of customization.
I'm on SkyDragon and quite happy with it. Very fast due to chip specific optimizations, has enough customization options, no apparent bugs at this point.
Tbh any ROM will do if you're not a demanding user so just try something

Well honestly I like simpler interface that's why I mentioned Pixel Experience and LineageOS. Who among them would be a better choice?

Well, apart from ROM specific customizations menues (which you can simply ignore if you don't wanna tinker with it) they all use stock AOSP interface, so they're all pretty much the same in that aspect.
I haven't personally tried (yet) those two that you mentioned, simply because SkyDragon was first Pie ROM that I tried after a bit of research and then I didn't feel the need to change it. I would assume however that LOS can't be a bad choice; I've used it before (older Android versions) on multiple devices and was always satisfied with it. It is still in beta though so some minor bugs are to be expected.
HAVOC, SKYDRAGON, MSM(next release)
I would highly encourage you to use NLOS 16. It's a stock LOS 16 build with developer's cherry picks to add more stability. There no extra gimmicks or customization than what you will find in a LOS build. Instead, it's more stable and bit better on optimizations that stock LOS build. I would highly recommend you to try it if you want to chose from LOS and Pixel Experience.

Is it stable? - Yes, during my 1 week usage with it, it was a stable ROM.
Battery Life - Your usage is different than mine. No one can answer this question for you. You need to flash and try and then see for yourself if the battery life is good for your usage. Someone who watches a lot of netflix or youtube can have 6 hours SOT and will call the battery life great. On the other hand, with 4G 100% time connected, and lot of location access, phone calls, high brightness usage, i am lucky if I have 4 hours SOT at the end of day. So, rather than asking battery life questions, just try the ROM and see for yourself. It has all basic functions working so you won't lose on anything. It's the beauty of custom ROMs. If you don't like one, switch to other one of use stock till you find the one ROM that works for you.
AOSiP
I have tried every pie rom , nothing can match AOSiP in smoothness and stability
Havoc Os, the best pie rom ever...
Using closed beta. Bugs are present
I use LineageOS 16, and it's the best of ROMs for me.
I like AOSP style OS, and I have ~5 hours of active screen.
DU -> Havoc -> Closed Beta ... I can not decide and jump between this 3 roms...
Currently NitrogenOS...no bugs, very smooth, great battery life
