Hello people,
In the past I had a HTC Magic and a Samsung Galaxy S, and both increased a lot the performance with custom kernels/ROMS, and for me the best was cyanogenmod.
I want to know if installing ROMS or kernels on the GN also increases the performance, or only adds functionality.
In that case, which ROM/kernel or both would yo recommend me?
Yes.
Find one you like though.
I can't recommend.
Kernel:

ROM:
AOKP31 (GSM device): http://rootzwiki.com/topic/11455-aokp-maguro-april-8-build-31-404/
AOKP31 (CDMA device): http://rootzwiki.com/topic/19302-aokp-toro-april-8-build-31-404/
Just my recommendations. Of course others will disagree or recommend something else but this is an amazing combo.

But is there a lot of difference in terms of perfomance? Or only in terms of customization?

Perfomance-wise, I'd say the kernel helped greatly in increasing my battery life.
Otherwise, the ROM is mainly for customisations such as reducing the soft key height, toggles, etc.

custom ROM has plenty of nice feature but i did not find a sinlge one that works properly:
Just to notice a couple of things:
Bluetooth: Only the stock rom allowed me to connect 2 BT headset (One with the "no phone audio") option, very usefull
GPS: not a sinlge custom rom i tried allow me to get GPS sat under 0-15 seconds, only the stock rom allows this.
Again this is my experience only.
Custom ROM has great function like battery stat, STAY AWAKE and more that i need but right now i am purely stock until i get bored i guess...
Just my 2 cents, of course
I know better than to ask what is the best rom out there because there really is never a good answer for that.
However does anyone have any input as to what rom is really stable with all normal functions of the phone working ( preferably a build that is considered stable) and has a good battery life? I really like rom's with status bar tweaks ( normally even if its a very customizable rom its all i fool around with)

Thank you very much. Looks like carbon is probably the winner with the BMS kernel.

That's what I have been using and the battery is awesome.
How many of you are running stock? Would you like a custom kernel with optimizations, governors, schedulers and overclocking/undervolting? Would anyone use it if I released one? If so, what governors and schedulers would you like to see?
Thanks!
Personally, I love running stock. I would definitely like to see a kernel that focuses on battery saving.
Please release the kernel. This phone needs some overclock
I'm going to wait until Nougat source is released to build a stock kernel since I was accepted into the Beta.
A custom kernel for Nougat would push me even closer to the already close edge that is my wallet.
This phone seriously looks attractive for the ~$160 asking price on Newegg/Amazon. Coming from a Nexus 5/Spare GS4, I'm used to really poor battery life and average performance.
I'm currently eyeing the Moto G4 and the Robin. The Robin is much more powerful, but doesn't have a replaceable battery and has a much smaller battery (technically the G4's battery isn't replaceable but it can be done fairly easily). There's also this business with Razer, which isn't too big of an issue as I normally stick with custom ROMs (and stock is getting quite a few updates in the future).
Both are in the high ~$160-200 range. Any input? If the Robin's battery is somehow replaceable that would be amazing, and I'd like an OEM supplier.

It would also be amazing to see some voltage control to control the beast of an 808.
There will be a custom kernel available in the near future for AOSP/Omni on the Robin. It is currently being tested ? and so far it's showing quite a bit of promise.
Some features it'll include are efficient hotplugging, optimized CPU governors, a new I/O scheduler and much more.. Based on Electron Kernel for the Nexus 6p by @frap129

The latest weekly build doesn't boot with Omni 7.1.2, so I'm not sure.
I believe the kernel is meant for Nextbit OS 7.0, not for custom roms. Not sure though.

So dirty flashing back to the latest Omni 7.1.1 build and then flashing the kernel should allow get the phone to boot?

Anybody body know if there's any stock Android Pie builds in development? Something smooth, clean, and silky? Man! I sure do miss Bugless Beast! By Alfonso in Nexus days.
Thanks guys!

Just curious...what are you looking for specifically that is special/unique that doesn't exist in actual Stock Roms provided monthly by Google? Can't get more stock than actual Stock.

Usually that would be a developer that's based solely on stock that would keep the graphics drivers updated with speed tweaks Etc. But it looks like those days are gone.

Back in the OG Droid, Droid Razr Maxx days I used to fully invest time and energy to run custom Roms as I also wanted to take advantage of overclocking CPU to maximize the performance of my device (which typically were underclocked by the OEMs). But, I haven't had to go that route in some time. I find the Stock experience provided by Google to be pretty good from a performance standpoint and the Pixel XL experience as far as monthly updates has also been exceptional. If you still have your heart set on having control of CPU clock speed settings and additional custom tweaks not available in the Stock experience - you should look at some of the custom kernels (or Roms) available. I believe there are custom kernels that will run with the true Stock Rom that will provide you greater flexibility.
Good luck.

Funny, I am currently running an custom Kernel on top of stock Android. You're absolutely right about Google's stock builds and performance. You gave great information because that's in fact what I am doing to date. Custom ROMs today are becoming too bloated with issues and issues. Again, thanks, and have a great day.

I have been thinking about at least experimenting with a custom kernel. Out of curiousity - which one are you running and what has been your experience? Why did you opt for the one you chose? (battery life, performance tweaks, customizations, etc...)?
Thanks

ElementalX Kernel.
Well, I picked this one mostly because he's an OG of the kernel scene. I personally don't do anything extra as far as extra features. But I just keep the script on his preferred settings, and I click install. I'm not into the overclocking, but I'm not too shy to underclock. I usually install custom kernels because of security updates and performance updates that they add due to Google's monthly developer updates.
You're welcome, no worries.
Hi,the source has been released few time ago....but there isn't custom rom,why?
This mobile is crap. The biggest bluf from Xiaomi
A lot of people are really, really dissapointed.I own the device less than month, ans think to sell it, and buy some phone with stock clear android.Any advice witch phone to look?

If you really want to run a stock ROM you could always invest some time into patching up the whyred device and vendor trees.
The two devices are mostly identical and essentially just need a blob swap.

Works fine for me. Whatever the issue is, it must be something you did wrong, or something the seller messed up with your device before shipping it to you.

Can you explain what wasn't good? Did you try resurrected kernel with it? That eliminated lag.
No custom rom yet probably because pocophone just came out. Development has already started for that first than mm3 even though it's released later and I don't think many people like big phones the same as us

If you go to the thread - use my settings for best battery or tweak the max frequencies to your liking for performance. You can also choose between Performance, Balanced, and Battery for governor tuner in L Speed cpu tuner section.
Well biggest difference, 117-119K antutu to 130-132K - big enough reason. Aside from no lag and better battery. Plus, more tweaks are coming with better governors.

i have got 13h of sot on eu
@opasha stop lying. Battery is worse, up to 10h sot and your settings do not work. Ondemand governon works so bad with this Kernel. Interactive + noop + OC gives up to 10h sot. Stock Kernel 13h-15h.
But performance is visibly better.

Go take a chill pill and come back after you've collected yourself. No need to call me a liar for no reason. I never said to use ondemand with noop on the latest kernel. Go check the resurrected kernel thread. My recent settings are there. What works well for me and others on 8.8.9 eu rom may not be the same for you since you're not even on the same rom. The newer eu roms have more battery drain - it's noted even in their forums from members. Everyone's SOT is also different. You stated the most useless information. Grow up, man. If you've got nothing productive to say, move along.
