[Q] What is a good daily driver?

Decent amount of customization
Good battery life
Stable
No bugs
Thinking of trying Zenity RR again, any good roms that have these features ^^

AOSPA
OOS (nougat since Oreo has some bugs rn)
Sultan's lineage 14.1
And I used legend ROM for a while which is pretty stable.

You cannot achieve all the qualities in a single ROM. You will see decent amount of customization in resurrection remix ROM but you will not have camera quality as close to oxygen OS. You can try Sultan CM 14.1 for good camera but you will have less customization. Hence
The solution to your problem is that you must use stock rooted ROM with msgisk and various mods and change kernel for best battery life.

Decide your priority first. For me I cannot ignore the best camera quality found in stock OOS as I have flashed and used almost every ROM for oneplus 3t and tested the camera quality. Sultan CM 14.1 and paranoid do the job well but not as good as oxygen OS especially in low light.
If customization is your priority, then go for resurrection remix based ROM like zenity OS.

Best cutom ROMs for Santoni

Hi I just got a new Redmi 4x and finally managed to unlock it. What Custom ROMs are best in terms of battery life and stability? Oreo or otherwise?

I think best oreo roms are AOSP Extended 5.3 and Nitrogen OS

I'm aware of the latest Oreo roms and I know recently Xiaomi has released the source code for the santoni phone but still no rom is perfect, specially the Oreo ones, so I'm looking for the closest aosp/stock experience I can get with full compatibility, I think a nougat based rom will do fine but wich one?
I'm planning to install a rom, install greenify, have a good battery life, have more free space and still have full camera, gps and other compatibility with no issues.
Wich rom could you recommend me?
Thanks in advance.

Lineage is not updated. Use latest ROMs like Nos and pe

I had this same question when I bought my Redmi 4X.
I tried a bunch of the custom roms available and now I can say that the best is 8.1.0 Nitrogen OS
It's my daily driver and I have no complains about it

Xiaomi.eu rom

I tried every rom on nougat and oreo roms, and can guarantee that this build of Lineageos 14.1 is the fastest and battery also good, using that with nethunter kernel with enabled autosmp and it gives me 3 days of usage with 7-9 hours of screen usage

Oreo roms seems a lot buggy and not smooth as 7.1.2 roms, amd in 7.1.2 roms i prefer this

Pixel experience

xiaomi.eu is by far more stable one.
In Oreo there a not 100% good roms yet, still on permissive SElinux.
And aosp Nougat based roms.. tried RR/AEX/LOS/crdroid and they are about perfect(rr is my prefered)

Go fr RR NOUGAT. No complaints here

Stable Treble ROM

hi i own a mi 4x as a backup device and currently its on PixelExperience (non-treble) ROM. I have to use the device for several days and i would like to flash a Treble ROM. So i dont have alots of time to test various ROMs. So what im asking is kindly point me some most stable Trebelized ROM. i dont mind its weather 8.1 or 9.0. i wanna use a stable ROM.
Thanks

I hope you are referring to Xiaomi Redmi 4X if so then go for DOT OS 2.4 or HAVOC OS both ROM are based on Android 8.1 are much stable and have decent battery life. (haven't tried them with custom kernel but have learned that they give good battery life with it)
Android Pie based ROMs are quite good too but they do have bugs but can be use as for daily use ROM.
I am currently using official HAVOC OS 2.0 based on Android Pie it does have bugs too but they aren't major ones.

Sorry for the off-topic, Oreo Havoc OS is not on XDA, correct? I've searched and couldn't find it, only Pie version. Is this the Oreo version you mean @metelhammer?
https://sourceforge.net/projects/havoc-os/files/santoni/

Yes, this is the official Havoc OS download link.
Havoc 2.0 is based on Android Pie which is -> Havoc-OS-v2.0-20180903-santoni-Official.
All other old zips are based on Android Oreo.
As for now only first zip is Android Pie and all old builds are Oreo ones.
Later they should be named as Havoc OS 2.0.

Everything clear, thank you for your help!
Do you find Havoc 2.0 stable enough for daily use?

Your welcome ?
Yes, it is quite good for daily use certainly it has bugs but they aren't major ones.
Compared to Android Oreo based Havoc OS it has less customization but that's totally fine considering it is first build.
I am using it since when it released.
Battery life is quite decent not that good, I get around 6 hours of SOT and I haven't tried any kernel with it so it might give good battery backup with it.
On mobile data as usual like all other custom ROMs battery life isn't that good.
ROM is smooth though and can be use as daily driver.

Thank you very much for all the info @metelhammer
I've tried Havoc 2.0 last night, but my microphone didn't work, so I went back to Havoc Oreo, everything fine for now.
I think I'll just wait for a stable enough Pie build, can't wait for it though :highfive:

Microphone didn't worked that's strange, it is working fine here.
No problem I am too waiting for future update, cheers!

I have tried most roms on redmi 4x. My recommendation is Lineage 15/14

Gcam with nightsight

Anyone using the new gcam with nightsight? Apparently eventhough bulit for oneplus 6 by arnov it works better with mi5 but im on miui rom and it won't work. So i wanted to know if anyone has used it before changing roms abd whether it works only on pie roms or anything from nougat.

It needs pie.

its pie only as of now use syberia os if you really want to try of btw its laggy and sluggish but actual camera performance is mind bobbling .

Which Pie ROM is better?

I see that there are 3 custom ROMs for Moto G based on Android 9. Have you tried any of them?

I tried all of them but AEX pie ROM is best of them and also so smooth. I recommend you to use Aex pie ROM.

Try LOS pie. It got updated just today.

I agree, Aosp extended pie rom is the most smooth.
but u cannot make hotspot on that one. LOS 16 has everything working, and RAM management is better on LOS 16.
I would recommend LOS 16, bcz apaart from a little bit of lag in ui everything is stable.
