It might not be the best board to ask about it, but I got my OP3 a few months back, and since then I changed ROMs a lot (like, really a lot). I found myself liking a lot OxygenOS (Oneplus apps like dialer, camera and explorer are really nice, and I'm digging a lot the power menu), but also features from AOSP (statusbar customisation mainly, also Substratum).
So I was wondering if there was any possibility to fuse these roms? I'm a big noob concerning coding on Android, so I might be asking for an absurdity, and I'd like to know why.
Thanks for reading.
Possible? Yes.
Viable? No.
It's A LOT of work to do that. Some things can be easily ported, some are near impossible or won't work as good as they should. For example, OOS camera has been ported to custom ROMs, but some features just don't work.

Substratum is available on freedom OS which is based on oxygen OS
Its important to know that what you want must be based on oos. So you should look for roms based on oos. Because its much more work to get things from oos to aosp roms.

Hi all,
The Dev Forum seems to be pretty abundant with Sense-based ROMs at the moment, and I guess that's to be expected with 3.0 being everyone's new(ish) favourite thing, but not all of us are Sense fans and I just wanted to get people's opinions on the current state of play concerning AOSP ROMs and their latest versions, especially around battery life.
What have you used / are you using, and how do the current suite of AOSP ROMs compare with each other in terms of battery life (but other stuff as well)?
I'd love to hear about people's recent experiences.
Thanks.
This rom is the best aosp rom I've used yet. Blazing fast and amazing battery life.

I tried Gingerbeast, HydrogenMod, Hikari, CyanogenMod and Ginger S and I can't seem to get any of them to be 100% fully functional. I've had a problem with bluetooth not working, not being able to import contacts, the home button stops working, com.android.phone force closing, etc. I've full wiped, reinstalled, fixed permissions, etc, but I can't get any AOSP rom to work. Surely there must be a leak of the AOSP rom that HTC use before adding Sense and other HTC addons?
While AOSP roms are light wight and seem fast they will never compare to roms built off of sense roms. Why you ask. Look at the roms like CM7 and other AOSP roms, they have to use open source drivers that dont make full use of the hardware. Like wifi and blue tooth. Both lose 25% strength because of the Open Source drivers instead of using the drivers built for the Phone like the closed source HTC drivers.
Umm, apologies if I've confused myself out of sheer ignorance, but can't you just flash a custom kernel like Lordmod's excellent one, which DOES contain official DHD phone drivers?

Sense based kernels will not work on an AOSP roms
LM is a aosp kernel.
i don't see any problems with pretty much all of the AOSP kernels i have used (Most CM based ones, quite a few Miui Ones, and the default CM7). The Wifi and BT work, gaming is pretty good, and its also much less laggy (Sense based roms occasionally freeze for no reason. Its annoying with music playing)
The only thing i dislike about AOSP roms is the camera which doesnt have touch to focus video recording, but pretty much every other sense feature can be replaced by a free, custom app (LauncherPro is much better than rosie 3.0/.5, custom video players play more movies, etc.)
you could always flash a sense/rosie/app remover on top of a sense based rom

Unless you needed to connect to a spicific type of network or need BT to work a certain way you wouldn't notice it.

Yeah, not sure about that 25% statement, mate.
I've been running CM7 Nightlies or CM-based ROMS for a while now and, if anything, I've noticed a significant improvement in connectivity (in general) from what I previously experienced on Sense ROMs. I'm sure that Lord Clockan's excellent kernels have a lot to do with it, but anyway...
I suppose everyone's experience is different.
Hy,
I am also a HUGE fan of AOSP. Since I bought my DHD it had Sense for one day because I had no time to flash. I also spent some time comparing Sense vs. AOSP Roms, and can say that AOSP has better performance on my DHD then Sense and always used them with the kernel they come with.
Aosp all the way. My recommended roms:

Hi!
I believe I know the answer to the question, but, is there any way to have both the AOSP dialer and the stock camera?
As far as I know AOSP based roms, such as Cyanogen, do implement the dialer but need LG drivers in order to have the camera working at it's best, which none is implementing at the moment (and looks quite hard to do in the near future).
On the other hand, Stock based roms don't have a way to replace the dialer as of now.
I come from a Nexus device and have been using Lollipop for some months now (since the first preview). I think the dialer is the best overall improvement of Lollipop besides material design.
But the thing about the G3 is that the camera is great. Being used to crappy Nexus cameras this is a whole notch above, and don't want to loose it. Mainly the video recording quality.
I wouldn't mind having either a stock or AOSP based rom. I've tried ChupaChups, Cyanogen, and am using now AN 6.1. All of them are working great.
Anyway I'm sure it's a matter of waiting a bit, development for the G3 is picking up speed.

Cant agree more with you. When im on stock, i miss the G Dialer so badly and when I go with AOSP, I just cant stand its ****ty camera. Now im on Chupachups but still longing for the dialer solution. Hope that one day Google will release its Dialer just as it did with the Messenger recently. 3rd Dialer wont replace the stock interface during call.
Have you tried any 3rd party dialer from Play Store?
So guys, what dou think which one do you prefer and why ?
Would be awesome to read some reviews. I really interested which one everyone likes?
Cause i dont know how to edit the pool, you cann vote here for all cm editions you can found or you have tested on the oneplus three.
There are PureCM, Sultanxda CM, Arter97s CM and so on ... If i miss some edition, just write it down and tell me why its good for you
@ZeNiXxX are you able to edit the poll and add "Pure CM" ?
That is the third most interesting "near stock CM" ROM that I'm following because it has just little modifications from official CM (some kernel tweaks and a couple of useful features added, plus built-in root).
With all due respect I find that custom ROMs like Resurrection Remix or PAC go a bit overboard on merging every possible feature.
Not that there is anything wrong with them as long as they keep stability, but the feeling is that those ROMs are bloated with features that I'd not use anyway.
Ah, and for sensible people complaining for this thread: come on, there's nothing wrong to prefer one ROM over another, it's just a matter of personal taste and of features / tweaks added by individual developers.
Why would anyone be offended if I prefer a Mercedes over a BMW, for instance?!?
I have nothing against other roms, but I would suggest to add all CM based roms (including stock cm) into the poll.
Why leave out others?

i thought that are the most favourite cm roms here. I'm trying to add the other to, did someone know how to edit the pool ?
Personnaly, I tested out sultan and official CM and I prefer official CM cause more updates, more follow-up, and the SuperSU is integrated so I can use some old Xposed apps that used system root and yet still use the latest version of SuperSu systemless
Sultan ROM is great but not enough updates for me, I'm like a flashoholic. The greatest thing that we can do is merge sultan stuff for the camera in the official CM ROM in order to increase the quality.
For the other ROMs, I find that they bring on too many features and they are really hard to understand sometimes, especially where the features are, etc...
Sultan
arter97 with the kernel. Amazing speed and battery life.
@ZeNiXxX, unlike your previous thread this is good title favoring discussion
None of the above roms i prefer Pure CM and jgcaap's rom. The reason is the great performance stabillity and battery life.
PURE CM
Neither. How about stock.

Stock? Nahh
Hello XDA,
I on my past phones I have used a wide variety of ROMs, but on my OP3 the camera quality drops if it is not OxygenOS based.
My question is, what is the best Oxygen based ROM? I have been using FreedomOS/FOS CE for about a year, but now I see others popping up like Experience ROM.
Which of these two has more features? What other O2 based ROMs are worth nothing?
I haven't had much success with mixing CM and flashable Oxygen camera zips, so that's why I prefer to stick to Oxygen based ROMs.
Thanks
They are pretty similar. I'd prefer Experience because I'd use only the debloated ROM with Arise, Adaway, adfree youtube with supersu. I personally use Sultanxda's cm 13 build. It's stable and camera quality is almost on par with OOS.
Experience and Freedom are pretty much the same.
i personally like FreedomOS more, cause nevax always has some interesting new ideas for features. but if you want completely debloated ROM you can also choose it in aroma installer also.

Yeah I like the features and the personalized aroma installer. Seems im sticking to FreedomOS then.
Hi,
So I'm looking for a ROM for my Pixel 2 XL but the problem is there are freaking tons of ROM's available, a lot of which seem to have the same/similar features which is a waste of developers time and not very useful for the community.
Surely it would make more sense if all the developers worked together on a few major builds, one basing on ASOP, one basing on Lineage and any of the other major bases with an Aroma installer providing options to add custom features?
Regardless of that, the type of ROM is either the "best" one that most of the community agree upon OR one that as similar to stock as possible but with extra tweaks/fixes/battery improvements... etc added to make it a fast, efficient, clean ROM.
I assume then I can get a hold of most of the custom features via a Magisk module or two?
Anyone able to tell me what the major differences are and what one sounds like it best suits me? I don't have the time to go through and install every single one of these ROM's :/
Thanks!

Short of actually installing and running the Roms to see which one fits your needs, looking through the "features" list, or following the change logs to see whats been added/removed would likely be your best bet.
Outside of the above, if you want a close to stock experience with a few custom features, look for a "pure" Rom which will have much fewer custom features in the OP.
Conversely, if you want every tool in the shed on your Rom, find the OP with the mile long list of features.
Pure Roms tend to be more stable as they are close to stock, and feature rich Roms can sometimes be a little buggy because they have 21,548 custom features (and all that extra code) to create opportunities for bugs, lag, conflicts, etc.
If you love to maintain and mess with your device, and don't mind the random minor glitch once in a while, go with the feature rich Roms (use what you like, ignore what you don't)...
If you want a daily driver that rarely needs anything other than a security update and is pretty much rock solid stable, go with the vanilla, pure, close to stock Roms.
Really, only you can determine what Rom is best for you. This doesn't even touch the subject of custom kernels (some Roms accept any cust kernel, some are more picky) color schemes, battery life, over/under clocking, etc. etc...
Good luck!
Well there's kitchen sink roms:
Havoc, bootleggers, colt, xtended, liquid, RR
Simple clean roms:
COSP, carbon, abc, DU, Lineage,
Somewhere in between:
Aex, aosip, pixel dust, scorpion,
Finding a rom with the features you want can be a moving target at times. At least there's no shortage of options hey?
