AOSP, come at a close second, is smoother/faster but lacks the customizability of and the reliable updates of CM. Same goes for nearly all other custom ROMs (besides Mokee).
Honestly, if you want a ROM as a daily driver, CM has to be it.
For now , cm 13 for our mi5 since most of the ROM's are based on it.
Cm13 as of now
Thanks guys
First of all, it's amazing how far Mi5 has come in terms of development and developer attention. There was a time when all this subforum had was 2-3 unofficial TWRPs, and that's it.
Now there are an amazing number of ROMs available. But the increase in variety has brought with it increasing confusion. A lot of the features overlap. Which ROM to flash? Do we just keep on cycling between them till we find the best match for us?
So I would appreciate if we could document the differences between the various ROMs in terms of features, stability, lack of bloat, etc., to help users choose the one suited to them.
@33bca, your input would particularly help, since you've provided almost half the ROMs in this subforum.
Marshmallow:
Official CM 13 (stable snapshots)
-really light
-boots really fast
-no network traffic indicator
AOSP (JDC)
-has substratum theme engine
Dirty Unicorns
PAC-ROM
AOSP-CAF
Paranoid Android
AICP
Mokee
Old ROMs (not recommended):
Hexagon
AOKP
crDroid
BeanStalk
SlimROM
Tipsy-OS
H2OS
BlissROM
ZephyrOS
Resurrection Remix
-quite a heavy ROM (system takes up 10GB )
-boots slower than CM 13
-fast charging LED blinking issue still exists
Nougat: (CM theme engine and firewall missing for relevant ROMs)
Lineage OS 14.1 (Official)
AOSP JDC (OMS) (Official)
CypherOS 3.5.1
AICP (Official)
AOKP
BeanStalk
Resurrection Remix 5.8 (OMS)
Slim 7 (OMS)
SlimDragon 1.1 (OMS) (Official)
Nitrogen OS
crDroid 1.9
Mokee
Zephyr OS 6.1 (OMS) (Official)
XOSP 7.2
XenonHD
DU 11 (OMS)
Xiaomi.eu
UnitedMIUI
In my personal opinion, at this stage, the only Marshmallow ROM you should consider flashing anew is CM 13 because it's the only one with weeklies, and hence actively maintained. The other ROMs will not be maintained as the developers have moved to the Nougat ROM base.
All Marshmallow ROMs except CM13 contain the laggy performance bug below 5% battery.
The nougat ROMs so far are quite stable and usable.
There's just the issue of a missing CM theme engine on CM based ROMs, which is easily resolved by using Substratum Legacy. The OMS compatible ROMs of course can use the latest Substratum framework.
There are little features missing here and there, which probably won't affect usage for a majority of people:
In the WiFi menu, we can't select WiFi frequency between 2.4 GHz, 5 GHZ, and automatic.
Your input is right, having more roms dont mean basicly its better. You have more roms to chose, thats right, but you also have more roms which are basicly the same with the same features.
My experience is, that all the roms with a lot of modifications (like DU, AICP, RR, Beanstalk and so on) are basicly the same, they have an external app for all modifications and near the same options.
Other roms like Paranoid Android, AOSCP, JDC and Cyanogenmod, try to keep the system clean while they still offer some modifications built into the system app to keep the AOSP feeling.
AOSP is AOSP, there i dont have to say much about
Thanks, man. So is it fair to say that DU, AICP, RR and such can be clubbed into the same category, as in "Install any, they're all the same", while it would be more useful to differentiate between AOSP, JDC AOSP, CM, AOSCP and so on?
I'm unwilling to flash ROM after ROM to find out the differences between them. If anyone has the experience of flashing two or more ROMs, please contribute to this thread so that it can become a useful guide to people. I'll keep adding the info to the OP.
Is there a bugs free custom ROM based on cm13 or cm14 so far? What about Mokee?
@selmandeli The best you're going to get is of course the relatively stable weeklies of official CM13. Since it is being maintained by an official CM developer and has had several months to mature, a lot of bugs have been fixed.
Apart from that, most of the 6.0.1 ROMs should be fine, even though they're unofficially built, as the code base is stable and only some kernel changes were needed, which, thanks to the awesome dedication of bgcngm and h2o64, we have.
No 7.1 based ROM is stable yet, since the CM code base is being actively updated. Even here, your best bet is the unofficial CM 14.1, since the developer maintains and fixes bugs himself.
The other 7.1 ROMs depend on CM development, and additionally on whoever their active developers are. The guys we have do a great job of keeping the respective code bases up to date though.

@andy356 DU has some original features built into it. Not sure about the version for MI5 though.
Thanks @mintyx. Could you elaborate a bit so I can put it in the OP if it applies?
@WhyOrean Do you plan to continue with your custom CM 14.1 like you said in the thread? Or will the focus be on other ROMs?

@andy356 you should search for Dirty Unicorns Fling, Pulse and Smartbar. These are their original ideas. I don't know if someone else has used it in their rom. It is open source so anyone can implement them.

Nope. When it seemed like most of the bugs were gone, and devs could then focus on it, Nougat code was dropped. Now there's again a mad rush to get the major bugs out on Nougat ROMs.

@andy356 Thanks for your precious feedback, it helps to understand the difference between the different ROMs. May I ask you to do an update version of your feedback since a lot a things have changed recently.
Thanks man!
@nicoula91 Right now I have a stable Marshmallow ROM that I want to stick to until Nougat ROMs become stable enough. When I'm ready to flash a new one I'll take that opportunity to flash all the Nougat ROMs and look at what's different. That sounds really troublesome, though.
Hello, friends using the Nexus 4.
I installed recently this ROM.
But i heard that the CM will not be supported anymore but I don't know which is the best. So can you please give me some suggestions.
My preferences are the following:
stable, with all functionalities working.
updated nexus 4 rom's
hi,
for my experience have one Rom fully functional and stabil and also frequently updated :
Nitrogen Rom
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ne...-nitrogen-os-n-substratum-10-09-2016-t3459341
maybe saosp rom is good too but unfortunately saosp rom is dead from april 2017 and lineage os 14.1 is still have BSOD's.

Lineage OS is the continuation of CM, so you should just migrate to that if you like CM.
liquid rom and rr remix rom awesome
Nitrogen ROM
There's no such thing as the best rom.

Children like to brag toys.
Nitrogen i think
I think dirty unicorns mako 7.1.1 is best rom most stable and most customizable rom there is also it is regular ly updated it is maintained by nitin chobe best n4 rom Dev in my opinion his ROMs are great any of his ROMs should work well for you just pick the rom that suits your tastes/needs
I would say latest ubuntu touch. Its easy to understand with the swipe and have the (web)apps i need while the rom has a good battery life (walking in the city with gps tracking on).
But what I can see is that Lineage 14.1 will probably be most updated like the old galaxy nexus was/is
Nitrogen is the best rom. Stable, smooth and battery friendly!

Yes, they have regular updates and cool features but from my experience they are using too much ram (a little bit under 1GB on idle) which can be annoying.
Also i want to mention that it's not that all good to jump to android N because it lacks xposed and it's not looking like it will come soon.
I recommend Resurrection Remix
Actually I have Nitrogen rom but is most drain battery withoot wifi, bluetooth and lte. Before i used Krexus (On android 6) and n4 working on battery 2x longer and more stable. I think problem is Nougat.

Try quanta kernel, the default one uses way too much battery on idle.

there is more other Best Rom such as RR , Viper OS nitrogen OS... I'm asking about them
Go to Github and miui forums and cry as loud as you can. Those roms are only available after kernel source is released.
https://github.com/MiCode/Xiaomi_Kernel_OpenSource/
http://en.miui.com/thread-670231-1-1.html
Just enjoy the current rom that mi max 2 dev has to offer. The stock miui roms are solid and quite nice; the chipset itself handles battery life in a very good way that you wouldn't mind changing or getting a custom kernel as of the moment. So please, don't ask for ETA, this Isn't a nexus/ pixel thread so expect a snail update for this device. Admin, for thread close please.
P.s: OP ask for thread close so you wont get flamed in your own thread. Just my two cents.
Nice to meet you ,i using oneplus3 ,and want to find a rom in XDA,because i thing HOS is uninsteresting,i hope someone can recommend a 7.0 rom for me~
em...How about FreeOS、Paranoid Android、Resurrection Remix-N ?
Hello, and welcome to the forum!
I personally recommend Paranoid Android (AOSPA) and VertexOS here. FreedomOS and Remix is quite great, but I like the minimalism and utilitarian interface of both AOSPA and VertexOS.

I'm using the kernel built inside the ROM. I don't particularly like changing to custom kernel if the stock kernel of the ROM works well for me.
Sultan lineage os
I highly recommend the unofficial lineage os of sultan.
I've tried aospa and almost every Rom for the op3 and I had the best experience with the sultan's lineage os.
Instal a rom. See how it is. Install other, see how it is. It's about youre taste, what you use, what you like.
[ROM][2017-11-08] AOSPA Extended 7.3.1 [UNIFIED] Oneplus 3(T) rituj26
[ROM][7.1.2]AOSP-CAF for OnePlus 3/3T [Unified][LA.UM.5.8.r1-02900-8x98] by akhilnarang

Resurrection remix (sultanized) for nougat is great
I'll say stock LOS with franco kernel , best battery life and awesome performance also it is having DCPI -3 color space and burn in protection

To be honest, i don't oos since April, so I can't really tell you anything about the camera quality of oos. But i guess the ported gcam gives us the best photo quality so far.
i recommend ViperOS v3.1+Caesium Kernel
I would recommend Paranoid Android. The camera app is good and takes excellent photos. You can also install the Google camera app.
