Best custom Rom? - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
Thinking of dipping my toe in the water with a custom rom. I'm still on stock H815v20L or something and whilst P is apparently being released I thought I'd check out the alternatives.. Unless P is out, rootable and stable?
Any recommendations for a custom Rom with Nougat 7.1+ pkease?
Any to avoid?
Cheers,
H

I think there is only 3 Nougat roms which are LinageOS/AOSP based which are being activily developed for LG g4. Resurrection Remix, Linage OS and Dirty Unicorns. I personaly use Resurrection Remix, more stable build for my taste for stable daily driver, DU probably also pretty stable but Linage OS releases are pretty much nightlys.
Only thing with these roms that camera performance is pretty bad to stock, doesnt matter what camera application you use. You can get pretty decent pictures with really good sun/day light and maybe small color editing but the noise and grain from like google camera is terrible in darker photos.
Nougat actually doesnt bring anything new for me, I personaly flashed RR and got theme engine on to get different settings menu cuz I hate the blue theme on lg stock.
If you got TWRP and unlocked bootloader , just flash and try

I use LineageOS on a daily use since mid May. I prefer not to update the ROM every week but every month.
So far, LOS is very stable. I change the camera for the Google Camera and works properly for now.
But as Diddymies says, flash and try

Which Nougat Rom?

What do people recommend for updating to a custom rom for my HTC 10?
Ive used Resurrection Remix before on my old S4 but wondering what people recommend now.
Im currently on Stock marshmallow. Ive rooted and installed TWRP and SuperSU.

Can't really recommend any Nougat Roms at this time. Too many issues (at least on my device like the camera not working). Probably the top 2 Sense-based roms are Ledroid and Viper. You could try either of those. I can however highly recommend Viper10 V3.5.0. This is a flawless Marshmallow rom. I'm still on it and will be until the Nougat kinks are ironed out. Good luck. Happy flashing.

I don't recommand a Nougat Rom too, i've been taking a "quick" look at it and they are'nt really optimized.
On my HTC 10 (unlocked version) I'm actually on Ledroid's Rom.
Quick launch, smooth interface, very usefull multi task button and so beautiful notification's section.
BUT
My battery is like ice in summer, like i'm 4H SOT and was 5/6+H on marshmallow stock.
Can't connect on snapchat (I don't really care but you care maybe)
I have issues on the automatic luminosity which get super agressive and is buged (don't set up the luminosity while i'm in a dark room, broking my eyes...)
Sorry for my bad english, i'm French ! ^^'
Hope I helped you !
Thanks guys, ill have a play with ledroid and viper. Resurrection remix seems to have few problems aswell
@aceniz Venomrom or leedroid.. If it's aosp then I'd say RR.. But if for stability id stick with sense based.. Strip it of sense and htc apps then use the pixel or vanilla type launchers, this is what I do and it absolutely flies.
Thanks, Ive gone with Leedroid, everything seems to work on it so far. seems to be the most stable. just need to work out a few tweaks with it to get it working ok the way i want and itll be better than RR

What ROM are you using and why?

I bought this phone and it's really great, I have nothing to complain about it....it's really too perfect
but....I was used to flash all the day, try stuff ecc....things are getting boring, my addiction is healing
I'm a stock guy because I feel stock rom+kernel performance more reliable and consistent, but maybe your experience could inspire me, and maybe others to try different things
Show your stuff!!
Thank you
For AOSP, best setup worked for me was ResurrectionRemix + mini gapps + tabp0le kernel coming with the rom, however in the last builds i got some performance issues are reverted back to sense based ROM. many people say Dirty Unicorns + Nebula kernel is a killer setup. but i didn't really like it because it didn't have pixel launcher and i don't know how to setup it tbh.
the best sense based ROM setup for me is Stock ROM + ElementalX + PnP mod by ivicask on balanced. i am using LeeDroid now + Stock kernel and sometimes i experience some lag not sure why but after a reboot it works perfectly. will try it with custom kernel.
trying ROMs on HTC 10 is good because most if not all of them work perfectly with phone and all of the issues you may face can be solved. just try many roms and see what's perfect for you.
here a sheet i made with all custom roms available for the 10
here
ICE and Leedroid to me feel more stable than stock ROMs on other phones. The 10 is extremely stable
Viper10
It's the most popular HTC ROM on XDA for a reason.
You can stay as close to stock as you want, tons of customization options if you want that instead, timely updates, and a strong community on the thread to help with any issues you may have.

Leedroid and ICE do not use stock kernel, they're including cleanSlate kernel with their builds (I think for mod reasons), so performance/stability issues should not be ROM faults IMO....Thank you anyway, I was thinking about trying ICE, it was my daily driver on M8, I'm just not sure about the kernel

yes.....viper10.....you know, I always had this feeling.....the more mods you include, more the rom will be potentially unstable....and viper has damn tons of mods
The curious thing about viper ROM is that everytime I try it, it's damn smooth. don't know why. but again, it doesn't feel stable....I will try it anyway
thank you anyone
I use lineage os, I like frequent updates, I like the fact that's it's a WIP. It is good and gets better by the week. I like that is very up to date.

the lag i get is in notification panel and i am pretty sure it's not a kernel thing because other than that the ROM is so smooth with 5hours SOT battery. i never tried ICE maybe i'll give it a try this week.
I use lineage, I only switched off stock because they were not releasing a security patch update every month, nor upgrading to the most recent version of android. I like keeping everything updated and its frustrating that you have to wait for them to do it rather than just getting it from google.
I used to be a flashing guy, the htc 10 maked me stop flashing by now, I gonna wait for U11 ports, I think stock rom is stable and wonderful.

Totally agree. Thankfully HTC 10 has massive support in terms of AOSP ROMS. I recommend you to try crDroid. It's so clean and simple with perfect performance and battery life
Resurrection remix with the custom kernel that comes with the ROM. I've tried mostly everything as my DD but I always come back to AOSP. I've tried lineage but it started to stutter.
Edit- I'm back on lineage and it's amazing.

Currently the best rom for Mi 6?

Hi guys!
Im going to buy xiaomi mi6 soon, so i want you to share with me your opinions about custom roms you used. Could you tell me what rom is the least bugged and gives me the most comfortable work with this device? Maybe the global stable is? Generally im looking for the best rom, and them futures.
If you are keeping bootloader locked then go for global beta most likely.
If you will unlock then the stable ROMs are based on 7.1.2.
AOSPA has a good reputation but LineageOS 14 is about to go official for Sagit.
The 8.1 ROMs are stable enough for most uses and so far I had no issues. Just waiting for Oreo kernel sources from Xiaomi for more stability.
There is no overall best ROM. Just the best for you.
Most people here don't like MIUI though.
Its alright but for anyone who's used to AOSP style ROMs they will not feel at home using it.
Its like an iOS splice of Android leaning more heavily to Android.

MIUI gives the best experience for me, most of time I flash weekly ROM's from Xiaomi.eu. They have stable too, if you don't want to flash every week and you don't mind trying new features. Xiaomi.eu team do a great job and sometimes fix some issues with official ROM's.
You have more MIUI based ROM's like Globe Rom, you can customize before downloading and Epic Rom I'm using this week.
If you like AOSP 'flavour' you can try Resurrection Remix (RR) very customizable via settings, and the classic Lineage OS (the old Cyanogen Mod).
Give a try some of them an tell us you experience

MIUI Global Stable - Stock ROM back in May, pretty okay, except battery drain was pretty bad. About 80-100mA drain during standby
Xiaomi.eu - the first non-official ROM I use, but still a MIUI-based. At least they give consistent weekly update and improvement. Battery drain problem was fixed here. But alas, I still hate MIUI's notification handling. The moment AOSP-based ROM pop, I made a switch, which is
LineageOS 14 by Xiaobai - first AOSP based ROM for Mi6. It was pretty good. I used LOS14 on my LG G2 back then, so it was pretty much as good as it can get
Lineage 15.0 by NisseCool/UnknownDev420 - Probably one of the first Oreo/non-MIUI ROM available here. Still lots of bugs, but usable. But phone gets really hot (up to 47c during load). Project is getting less update since December. Then finally I made a jump to
crDroid (Android 8.1) by Verevka - It has all the bugs in LOS15.0 fixed and have the goodness of MIUI camera. The downside right now is that QC3.0 isn't working. You're capped at 1500mA charging instead of 3000mA, which is pretty okay considering it'll get fixed and the ROM is still getting updated regularly.
Thanks guys, you are really helpfull. The roms you described have OTA update future? I like to enjoy with installing custom roms etc. but i dont want to manually update os after all updates.
I think Epic ROM from MrRaines is the only custom ROM we have here that has OTA. Though I've never tried it before.
Which rom do you guys think has the best battery performance?? I am using RR now and getting a SoT of around 7 hrs to %20

Did anyone try the flymeOS that is new for mi6
rn im using MIUI global beta with android 8.0.0 and very smooth here. However, as soon as official Lineage OS is out im installing it. Ive already tested other custom roms such as AEX and another one based on android 8 (not miui) and i was very happy although i left due to poor camera and some bug which didnt allow me to update one app precisely which i used, so had to go back
for now im on miui eu stable.Bugs free battery is very good and ofc is fast.

Hello, i had the pixel eperience rom since 2 or 3 month, but i am studying now and i don't like the lack of smooth/ laggy in the prixel experience rom.
I use my phone only for web browsing, spotify youtube vanced, gps, gcam, messenger...but each app take a lote of time to start and this is not good,.my phone is rooter with magisk and it is realy good to have adaway ...
Which rom do you advice for a guy like me, i don t play game, i want the smoothest rom, i don t care about android version, if i have to downgrade my phone on android 6 marshmallow, no probleme for me and if for your the best is oxygen os, i will return, sory my english is not very good
Of curse I used to changed in pixel eperience 2 month ago because i found oreo and pie oxygyn os stock rom « laggy»
If the thread is not in the right oneplus 3 forum place, thank you to advice me where can i put this thread.
Thank, from Belgium
Anyone can not share his experience or send me somehere with the same ask?
I would say OOS9.0.5 is rock solid when it comes to stability when paired with custom kernel.
I was using it since it released with HDK kernel & never faced any issues.
But if you are into more features & customizations, give it a try to xtended or havoc. Both are pretty stable.
I recently switched to Havoc as I was missing few features on OOS.
Try OOS9 without any kernel
Seems to work pretty well

Thank you, i think i will try havoc because i used oos 9 since the begining of android 9, but the life battery was realy short and the ui laggy.
I heard here or on another websites skydragon and resurection remix are realy good roms ? Is it true from your experience?

Haven't tried RR pie, so I can't comment. But have used skydragon rom & it is also smooth. Waiting for update on skydragon. Till then will stick to havoc.
Hope that helps.

I am doing a backup of the application via titanium backup and my rom via the recovery in case it is fail somewhere, then I will install havoc and even what it is worth, the concern oxygen os and piexel experience ,is that the baterie is catastophic, not very fluid and I very often lose the wifi 5 ghz so obliged to fall back on the 2.4 ghz

What Rom is most stable of 10.x builds?

Hi guys i used to be a active here on xda but since i got my one plus i kind of left all this behind. Im now looking to bring some life back to my 5t but i want something as stable as possible as it is a work device. Thanks!
This is a hard question because most people didn't try all custom roms. I suggest you check each Android 10 rom status here, if it's mentioned "stable", it should be good enough for daily use.
Any rom which doesn't use h2os firmware.

Buggy
i tried pixel experience and OOS 10 beta , pixel experience is a daily driver not sure about oos10beta tho cause i just got it today but it seems stable
Mainly I'd avoid custom roms cause I'll miss OOS features,no matter how good the custom rom is
I've tried Pixel experience only.
The battery life is more or less the same during normal use (if you play game, the battery will empty soon).
Derpfest rom
