If you want roms with more function, try heading over to the project treble section of xda and flashing some GSI images. Currently using phhusson's stock Android 10 with go gapps but you might like to use a ROM with more features.

Based on my current understanding, project treble aims to make it easier for OEMs (like Samsung) to update android. Here's a more in depth read about project treble: https://www.computerworld.com/artic...ect-treble-android-upgrade-fix-explained.html
A GSI is a Generic System Image that can be flashed on top of existing vendor code. So it makes it easier to change/update your android OS without companies like Samsung having to modify their hardware compatibility code (that's the goal anyways) which leads to faster updates.
For us enthusiasts, that means we can flash the same stock android GSI ROM, lineageOS GSI ROM, resurrection remix GSI, etc. on any phone supporting project treble (all devices that came out with android 9+ & some android 8).That's the same GSI file on any device with a recent version of VNDK. It's not all perfect for compatibility yet, but I've yet to run into any issues.
Yup! As @Roarmaster said you can check out Project Treble page. I too use GSIs and have flashed 3 GSIs so I can recommend you some. In project treble section for AB devices search for Bless GSI, it has lot of customization and works quite well, selinux enforcing, megisk safety net passes and google play certification all by default.

Thank you for the tip, this sounds like an interesting option. I'm looking at flashing a custom ROM onto my SM-T510 in the hope of improving the performance as the multitaking on the stock rom isn't great. Can I ask have you been flashing A, B, or A/B ROMS? I've installed two different Treble checker apps and they gave conflicting results.

Flash the rooms from the A/AB section of project treble. When checking for treble compatibility, use the app recommended on Phusson's GSI page as most GSIs are based on his work. If you want to flash a ROM, make sure you flash the arm32-binder64-ab version (like it says from the treble app) for the SM-T510.
Amazing! Thank you for the info and links @Roarmaster, I really appreciate the help. I've known about project Treble for a while but I've been out of the custom ROM scene for quite a few years, so I had no idea you could flash like this. I'll give one of Phusson's roms a go. Thanks again!

Recently I saw that there appeared a new kind of roms which need a special recovery and, as I could find, have something to do with easier update of Android version. Also I have seen a project: https://forum.xda-developers.com/pr...-development/experimental-phh-treble-t3709659 which claims to have one rom file that can be flashed on a impressing number of roms. I saw the first comment by author which has a method to know if a device has support for treble and it is refered to run "treble check" app from play store on official rom. The thing is that I experimented and installed treble rom (lineage OS) from redmi 4x thread and did the check if the device is supported (the screenshot is attached below) and saw that on this rom it is supported, in contrary to MIUI. The question is about this controversion: is this device supported or not? Can I flash these ROMs from the thread? Are treble ROMs really like a universal flashable file for multiple devices?
If you flash GSI (Generic System Image) it will work on our device. Yes Treble roms are universally flashable if GSI is used, with some minimal modification for device specific. So porting roms will easier, and less time consuming.
Anyone can correct me, if i 'm wrong.

Yes, but follow the instruction there. Our device is A-only device. Use the special recovery here for flashing. Or flash the lineageos 15.1 treble edition first just find in on our device forum.

As far as i know the seamlees update works this way:
In slot A you have installed any OS Example Android 8.1
In slot B there is a backup of the OS Om slot A
This mean you can install the ota of Android P (example) in one of the slots while you are on Facebook for example

Okay, sounds fair enough. The thing is that you'll have to flash ROMs on your own to check what is better for you.
I'll recommend you to open ROM section of Redmi 4X and and in new tab open YouTube and check and compare what suits for you because everyone has different choices and usage.
For me this ROM works great in terms of battery backup, performance and features (which is important to me)
Oreo based...
Resurrection Remix
dot OS
Havoc OS (ignore final build it has random reboot issue)
Pie based...
Arrow OS.
Havoc OS(using currently and it has good battery backup)
crDroid
Waiting for dot OS

Okay, go for Arrow OS then it has very limited customisation and it is close to stock Android You can check its UI and review on YouTube.
I haven't tried lineage OS (both Oreo and Pie) I like feature full of ROM which is can customize the way I want so I can't say anything about lineage OS but it you can check its thread for more details and it's stability, battery backup and bugs related stuff.

I don't get what you want exactly?
Custom roms are usually based on lineage OS and they get modified further by different rom developers and rom community.
There's currently no official Android pie based lineage OS available as I am writing this comment, however there's lineage Oreo ROM available which is nightly build.
If you only want to flash lineage OS then flash it. Pie ROM unofficially available flash it if you want to. They do get updated once developers avails it.
Also I did not get why are you sharing this stuff here, I think it's irrelevant.
There's also many other roms gives ota's and IMO it doesn't matter much if it's ota's or not. One can flash it manually. Only benefit is we get to know new update is available.
Wait for lineage OS pie official or flash Oreo based official lineage OS.
Seriously decide first what you want, I've given much of my time I think it won't be possible for me to do.

You'll find several custom roms official ones and unofficial ones.
Official ones are supported by its rom community and developers here help each other to build builds. you'll often see in credits that several rom community and developers helped to build it.
Unofficial ones are those builds which individual developer(s) built it on their own time they might have taken help from other developers (individual or from community)
XDA is most trusted among android enthusiast website. i can't say anything about other websites.
Custom roms needs to uploaded on their own website or some other cloud storage such as Gdrive, androidfilehost, sourceforge. usually this are download pages you'll be directed to.
If there is any other community or website i can't say anything about it.
Your discretion is advised in such cases.
For your information i've never had any issues with links shared on xda.
it is hard work from developers and community which avails custom rom to us which i appreciate and same goes to XDA.
If any case you are skeptical do not proceed, but it is better than that Xiaomi's MIUI which where they clearly said we will use user data and process it and data will send to their servers.

Do u guys have an Android 8 or Newer 64-bit for SM-G610M/DS? Can't find it anywhere. Is LOSQ compatible?
I am using J7 Prime SM-G610F. You can go for Treble ROM. Right now I flash Treble and flash Arrow ARM64 a only. Everything works smoothly like a charm.

I am writing an article to explain how to download and install Treble project on J7 Prime (especially SM-G610F).
For quick answer, you can check all the links for Treble and many useful stuff here.
Advantages of Treble ROM:
1. I can have many choices of ARM64 Treble ROM with quicker and contunuing updates. I could not find good ARM64 Dedicated ROM for J7 Prime for daily uses yet.
2. I experienced contrast issues with OneUI based ROMs. 80-90% Grayscale turns white. Most Dedicated ROMs for J7 Prime are OneUI based ROMs. Non-OneUI ROMs are discontinued.
3. With Kraken ARM64 Kernal for Treble, Everything is very slick. But when I flashed Kraken ARM for Dedicated ROM, everything is very slow.
4. If you want to try Android 10 (Quack) for now, you need to flash Treble. However Android Q is not stable yet.
5. For A/B Treble phones, Android updates are seamless and the suppliers give support for firmwares of Treble project. (J7 Prime is A only)
Disadvantage of Treble ROM:
1. Easy to get your phone bricked and bootlooped at logo. You can switch back to Dedicated ROM if you want.
2. LED light on top of the phone when screen off can't be activated while charging. I still cannot find patch to fix this yet.
3. Open Camera app in Treble ROMs does not have camera functions such as panorama, etc. I still can't flash any Treble OneUI ROM and get this to work, so I have not idea what happen in OneUI's camera app.
4. Flash GAPPS need to resize /system partition for J7 Prime phone.
5. Flash Magisk needs a bit more work to get some functions to work.
6. Treble project for J7 Prime and related phones has been discontinued by the original author. So there will be no update soon or never. This makes the future Treble ROMs may not be flashed and works well.
7. Treble ROMs are much bigger than Dedicated ROMs because Treble ROMs are supposed to install on any phones that support Treble project. But Dedicated ROMs are specific to one or series of the same model.
8. Treble ROMs don't come with firmwares for the phones. I need to find and flash the phone firmwares by myself. Sometimes wrong firmwares cause malfunctions in phones. I am nothing developer so I have no knowledge about this stuff. :laugh::laugh::laugh:
9. More chances of getting the phone bricked. In contrast to Dedicated ROMs that brilliant developer team supports.
For me, I prefer ARM64 performace so I plesantly take the risks. Right now my J7 Prime is apparently slick and zero random reboot.

Followed the steps for TWRP way of installing GSI in the link of my precious posts in this thread. Normally, boot into the GSI. That's it.
PS - Only Corvus OS allows SafetynetBypass. I have tried it on phhussons GSI and haven't been able to pass safetynet. Even dabbled with magisk hide prop config. Wasn't able to achieve anything.

Yeah, you might encounter some unstability. But overall experience is really good. The phone is responsive most of the time. You could try if you want to see what it is. I haven't gone back to Corvus, ever since Android 12 update came, so maybe the new firmware might have added some fixes.

Yeah, I'm fascinated by the responsiveness of the corvus os. And this new android stock update is eating up more RAM. And I feel one UI 4.1 is not good as 3.1.
I'm thinking of weather to switch to gsi or not.
For long usability, what do you think will be the better option?
Switch to GSI or reset the existing stock rom user data?

Have you rooted your phone? If you have, give the GSI a try. If not, try following ONE UI Optimization guide on xda itself. Then, decide, whether you want it or not. I use slightly debloated ONE UI 4 rooted and with certain floating feature tweaks and build.prop tweaks as well. It has given me good mileage, but not as much as the Redmi Note 5 Pro, when I installed Superior OS A12 on it. But it will be definitely better than factory.

I think you misunderstand the point of Trebleized devices and GSIs.
A GSI, or Generic System Image, is a system image designed to be used with any device, usually with the original kernel.
Project Treble is the idea behind "modular" software such as GSIs and GKIs (generic kernel images), where the "product specific" code is divorced from the kernel and system code and kept in its own partition.
So, to answer your question, I believe the S21U is Treble enabled, which means you can use any GSI.
thanks for reply.
I understand the subject well since i installed the GSI based roms for xiaomi phones (curtana. mojito . vayu . alioth ...) So, my real question is: Why there is no (pixel xperience . evolution. arrowOS ....) roms yet ?

I dont understand this question. Why should be a gsi device specific thread..?
Just Google PHHUSSEN treble experimentions or click this Link. This list is almost daily updated with much of gsi roms like PE or Evo.
Look for haridhayal11's gsi project for exynos 2100, I can't remember if he posted here before but he's the one that enabled us to use GSI on S21s with good stability.
