Already a thread about this, with plenty recommendations. No need for duplicate threads.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3t/help/best-stable-8-1-custom-rom-oneplus-3t-t3788189
The question posed is vague, with no answer. You think devs set out to make ROMs that are incomplete and with lots of bugs? What constitutes the "best" ROM is completely subjective. And how "complete", "stable" and/or "buggy" is vary drastically based on personal usage patterns.

Difference between so many similar ROMs?

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.

best custom rom is?

which is the best custom rom for nexus 6 with good battery life?
There is no such thing as best rom. Go try them all and decide
thats a good question because i was wondering the same thing as new phones come out sadly development for the nexus 6 has slowed down but what are you guys currently running rom and kernel?
I'm running the latest version of crdroid along with sigma kernel and my nexus is purring along smoothly but interested in hearing what everyone else is using
Using Tesla now, was on Dark ROM with B14CKB1RD kernel. Both are great, Tesla has Magisk built into it, so no need for additional flashing and more features. Dark ROM is equally as good and has OTA updates.
Really depends on what your kernel settings are for these two ROMs, but battery life is great.
PureNexus or Dirty Unicorns. Properly updated, a lot of features, stable and the battery life is perfect...

weekly RC or official wich?
I haven't tried some of the newer ROMS yet, but my favorites are crDroid and SIX Rom

Well, PN has only official ones.
For the moment I'm running the (last) official monthly build of DU. Those RC builds tend to have more bugs, so I simply don't use them.
It's all subjective but my two cents is (are) I always go back to Nitrogen. Recently tried Six and that was nice too.

Mi5 ROM comparison

Hello,
I've been on xiaomi.eu's global 8.5 ROM for a while and I've been looking here for a new rom that is not MIUI, but there are so many of them.
So, I write this post to know which of them is better than the others, or at least know the differences between them: CM, Lineage OS, RR, Paranoid Android, Slim7, etc.
Are all this roms working ok on this phone? Do they have bugs?
Thanks

CM has been discontinued, but has been succeeded by LineageOS. This seems to be the most common ROM for this phone.
RR and Paranoid Android offer extra features that LineageOS does not, mostly related to customization. You can read the first forum post for each one to see what to expact.
Slim7 is designed to be the lightest ROM with the least amount of added features, optimized for speed and low memory usage.
No ROM is necessarily "better" than the other - it is all a matter of personal opinion and what you're looking for. I personally prefer Lineage because it's updated weekly, but you might opt for something with more features.
As to which ROMs work/have bugs: again, read the first (or second) forum post for the specific ROM, and it will state whether or not there are bugs to be expected. Since this phone has been out for a while, most ROMs have been tweaked to work well with the phone at this point, but it's always helpful to read through to see what to expect.

[discussion] Which Oreo ROM are you running and why

Hello guys ,
I am currently running oos 5.0.1 Oreo and wanted to shift to a custom Oreo ROM for better battery - performance , so wanted to know which rom are you guys using and how its doing with you.
I'm actually running on NOS
I'm back from cypheros test build because it's have too much bugs 5.1
Omni doesn't have new brightness slider and color manager and screen recorder so I'm not going to flash it rn (I'm also feel bloated by many useless apps like matlog music app and other omni apps)
i tried aex, slimm, candy, pixel experience, cosmicos, los 15.1, aicp but they have too much bugs for me (many of them not have system ui crash or system)
oxygen os as 8.0 is too slow for me i can't even fast type with any kernel on xda for oos (also battery life is bad)
I'm staying with Omni/NOS until AOSPA or cypheros gets stable enough to use it for daily driver.

Few weeks back. Issues with force closes. I know that alot has changed but I ain't a flash alcoholic and OOS currently works for me so.
for people who are asking for DU:
DU builds: https://sourceforge.net/projects/dirty-unicorns/files/oneplus3/
I got that from YouTube review video and it's saying not official !

I was searching for DU Oreo builds to try it out and by luck I found it in the description of this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PVFrUZ9-Krs (Indian review so I didn't watch it.)
I have tested DU and I'm think its slow as Los 15.1 I'm again back to NOS
we should have telegram or whatsapp or xda thread for these discussions.. that'd be great
Omni and nos are the only viable Oreo ROMs. Maybe when they release z unleashed will be great
The only way to get a good DU 8.1 build is to know someone or to build yourself.

I'm actually on aosip.
Its feels stable but only one bug is navbar i can't change it and its too big/black and that hurts my eyes.
camera is really good better than nos IMO.
faster/smoother
i don't know how's battery because i didn't charge my phone to 100% also dash charge doesn't work

Question What is the most stable ROM for this phone right now?

Please recommend me a ROM to daily.
In previous phones I've enjoyed Pixel Experience, PixelPlus and am a big fan of LineageOS.
Of course, I'd prefer to keep fast-charging functionality and be on the latest android.
Thanks!
Hello.
You can try ArrowOS 12.1(Android 12).
This rom is very smooth and stable,fast charge works on it.

This has nothing to do with the stability of a custom rom, but with the hardware of your smartphone.
With every batch Xiaomi change hardware. Not every custom rom can or will follow these changes.

Bumping this thread to ask the same question in light of new circumstances (my apologies):
I've been looking through all these threads lately to find a custom ROM for my usage before unlocking the bootloader, but recently I noticed that almost every Android 12 ROM is discontinued so the devs can work on A13 or for other reasons, so now I can't find any threads that have that in context.
In other words my question is, what is a stable enough ROM now that most are discontinued? Taking into context the spoofing no longer works in the latest ArrowOS 12.1 build which causes extreme battery drain by the Google Play Services.
If it helps, the uses/needs I basically seek are mainly Camera/Audio/Battery. I dont care for gaming one bit in my personal case.
Thank you and sorry for repeating the same question. I just want to drop MIUI and can't find an answer.

If you are okay with MIUI, Hassan mirza ROMs are amazing. He has A12/12.5/13.
