Hi,
I am looking for a new phone and I want then install LineageOS on it and remove the pre-installed Android. But I also want a phone that is working and not one I have to solve problems and looking for new updates every day. So in short: I want a stable LineageOS.
Problem is: I cannot find information when to expect a stable LineageOS version. All I can find at the LineageOS website is, that the current versions are nightlies. So when can I expect a stable version? Or do I something completely misunderstand here? Will there never be one common people like me can use in a more or less productive way?
I hope this questions don't come rude. I know this is a voluntarily project and I have the highest respect for all the developers. I just wanna know.

I am a long-time user of CyanogenMod since I learned the beauty of rooting and flashing my HTC Hero years ago. But over the years of enjoying the benefits of running nightlies, I've always been nagged by the occasional build that is broken or buggy.
As a general poll question, what is the best method(s) of determining whether a nightly is stable for ROMs such as CyanogenMod, PAC-MAN, etc?
Do you have a favorite changelog, ROM rating website, or XDA thread that you reference before you flash that shiny-new build every morning?
Generally I would just check the threads to see what the flashers are saying. Or ask how it's gone for people. Usually if they have a bad experience with the nightly they'll post about it saying that they had to nandroid back to another build, or do so and so fix to get something working right.
Hi guys, need your help. I am coming over from the iPhone. Just ordered a used S3 for my first Android phone and very excited.
It should arrive this week and I would like to have it rooted. I would like to also install the latest stable Cyanogenmod release for this phone. Is it 10.2?
I have never rooted a phone or loaded any roms. I am having trouble finding the CM rom that's the latest most stable one. I just see a bunch of different names and have no clue which one I need. Can you guys recommend something?
Can someone point me in the right direction? I would like something quick, good battery life, and good for a daily driver. I saw a youtube video that showed Cyanogenmod as most closest to stock and very stable.
I would really appreciate your help. thanks in advance

That's a one-stop shop for S3, rooting and flashing custom recovery. Check that thread and follow the instructions there. You need to root your phone first and then flash a custom recovery like TWRP, before you can flash Custom ROM's like CM 10.2
Yes CM 10.2 is the latest version of CM with Android 4.3. CM 11 with 4.4 Kitkat is also in for S3, but dont expect it to be stable.
Also, release that there are lots of ROM's based on CM source, so they should work fine too. There are other very good custom ROM's like Carbon, Paranoid Android etc which offer unique features, while there are hybrid ROM's that combine features from all these. You need to try different ones to see what works best for you.
Also, refer to this video and others from that channel.

I suggest you take time to read, then take time to try all the roms here, as they are all good.
As we do not encourage arguments over which rom is best or is "most stable" I am going to close this thread, please take time to read what is being offered in the development areas, and welcome to android phones.
First of all I don't want this to come of ass disrespectful for ROM developers, if it is so kindly any mod delete this thread.
Since I've updated to latest open beta, overall experience has been very bad.
So guys what is the most stable ROM available as latest oos is crapping on me and this is my main phone so I can't flash ROMs often.
Thank you

Here is where you will run into an issue. Roms are very device, user and area dependent. So What is outstanding for me might be crap for you. So while you will get everyone stating their fav rom (regardless of stability), The best thing you can do is try a couple out and pick the one that works best for you, the way you use the device and the area you live in.
AOSP extended and Resurrection Remix we have is outdated now, please update it. There are lots new feature in newer builds. I hope someone do it. Please make it stable too, I really want to use these ROMs as daily driver. The only reason I'm using stock ROM is due to stability but AOSP we have by Alberto is stable as hell too. And AOSP is the only one I find stable to use as daily driver but it lacks features as in AOSP extended or Resurrection Remix.
So please if anyone can update these ROMs and make them stable I'd be very happy and i think whole community would be happy too.
If this is too much to ask then you can ignore me. I know it takes time and resources to build a stable ROM and not many devs are working on MZP and this device is getting old too. But at least make a last stable ROM with full of features as in AOSP extended or Resurrection Remix. I think Moto has already given up on this phone as we don't have any new security update either.
Thank you.

How can you say that when Android 8.0 w/April 2018 security patch was recently released for the Moto Z Play?

Yes, I want to but unfortunately I don't have resources to do that. A 8-core computer and a fast internet with no data cap. These main things are the one that stopping me. I don't have much knowledge of coding but I've learned how to compile rom from the internet but still I need resources.

We already have 2 major updates as all Moto phones have gotten in the past. Considering the following trend, I don't think we'll get another major update maybe one or two security updates but it's still not confirmed. And this is just my assumption, if we're lucky we might get Android P.

How about you update them yourself or have some patience? Developers aren't here to cater to your needs. Most developers do this as a hobby and only choose to share the fruits of their labor. Show some courtesy.

I already said that I don't have resources to compile one otherwise I'd be making lots of ROMs. And I'm not forcing anyone just asking. I already wrote in the post to ignore me if this is too much to ask. Don't get the wrong idea, I'm asking for update because other phones like Redmi Note 4 is having same chipset but it's constantly updated with newer builds. I was just wondering if devs "would like to" update MZP custom ROMs too. I am trying to Port some ROMs from RN4 to MZP as this is the only thing I can do with my crappy PC. I want to make a contribution too if possible. Again I'm not forcing anyone just asking. Sorry if you think asking for ROMs is bad too.
I have a question about this idea.
Xiaomi.eu team dropped support for the Redmi Note 8 Pro due to issues with bricking that can’t be easily recovered from.
But, we now have cfw antibrick system, does anyone know or by any chance have a way to make miui roma based on chinese weekly beta.
On GitHub we have Multilang project to compile inside rom.
Maybe some one know ingbrzy from xiaomi forum, asking him for tree and other advanced stuff which he adds to roms for other types of phones.
I know we have custom roms, but i like stock miui rom.
Any help is welcome, if necessary and someone knows the necessary things for making roma, and does not want to say publicly, he can call me at pm, to make it for myself even if I make a hard brick of my cell phone. :laugh:
cheers.
i have same question , but the real question is , is it worth it? i mean we all left miui for same reason basic things are bad no nav bar ram management doesn't exist on miui stock compared to samsung m31 great stock one ui , and after all custom roms try to give you the pixel feeling which is imo better than any isheep phone out there , i hope if someone is able to do something like that , unofficial miui rom wouldn't be as reliable as official miui 12 and will take effort to port and get it customized for us.

If you see forum with relased miui 12 for not so small list of phones, and very big list of "ROMs features (Whats not in Global)", i think yes. It worth it.
It was the same rom for our model with all those extras, so if it continued, we would have a weekly update, but there were a lot of hard bricks so they gave up on further release.
That's why I asked, now we have a cfw antibrick system so we're safe.
