I got my new OnePlus 5T today and I really enjoy the Face Unlock feature. It's in my opinion a nice and fast way to unlock your device. But is it also possible to add this feature to custom ROMs like for example LineageOS? Or is the face unlock part not possible to add in AOSP based custom ROMs?
Thanks for your answers, Nils

Any news on the faceunlock in custom roms? Does it would be possible any soon?
The face unlock feature implemented in Oxygen OS is proprietary. I don't expect it to become available in custom ROMs.

The only ROM with Face Unlock so far is FreedomOs which is basically OxygenOs with some tweaks.

Hello friends,
I am quite new to this forum also new to rooting and using custom ROMs on my G3.
I have my G3 for about 8 months now and have already upgraded to android 5.0 (OTA). I want to customize my G3 as much as I can !!!
I have installed G3 Tweaksbox but its not working, it is giving me an error message "Xposed Framework is missing". I have read on some threads that Xposed has not been finalized yet for Lollipop and it is not advisable to install it. So I cannot go through G3 Tweaksbox for customizing my G3.
The second option was to install a custom ROM. For this, I have already rooted my G3 and already backed up my data. I was about to install BlissPop V3.5 when I came across a thread saying if I install a customize ROM, I will lose some cool features of my G3...like knock code, auto-focus and other specific features of LG.
I know you guys are expert in these things and therefore wanted your help on how to be able to fully customize my G3 without losing those cool features?
Your help will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Roy
There are two types of options in custom ROMs: Stock-based and AOSP/CM based.
Customizability:
Hands-down, AOSP wins the customizability contest. Many of the features you would need to use Xposed for in stock-based are already baked into AOSP.
Camera:
Stock-based lets you use the stock camera, the software and drivers for which are proprietary; it's might quick and accurate, even if it does not allow manual adjustments.
The default AOSP camera is okay. Many of us opt to replace it with a port from another device. The Motorola cam is nice and the M9 cam is fantastic (I'm working on a few tweaks to make it work better with the G3). Point is: the choice is yours.
Knock-on/off:
The knock-on code is an LG feature, so stock-based ROMs only.
Some AOSP ROMs allow you to knock on and knock off, but no pattern detection is incorporated with it.
QRemote:
This has been ported to AOSP and works great. The only thing that isn't there is having it in the pull-down menu.
So, it's a trade-off. There is no perfect ROM, unless you find something that is perfect for you. For me, although I sometimes miss the LG camera, the features and tweaking ability of a good AOSP ROM are a clear win. My suggestion is dump stock altogether, install a cleaned up stock-based ROM and play with it for a while. Then make a backup, wipe and install a good AOSP ROM like CyanideL or BlissPop to get a feel for that. Then stick with what you prefer. Heck, I've restored my Jasmine ROM just for the camera on one occasion!
Thanks epidenimus
Hi epidenimus thanks a lot. I think I will go with a stock based ROM that can still contain the g3 features . Another nice feature is the quick circle case all which I assume will still be there in the stock.
Can you suggest me which custom ROM to go for and where to get it?
Thanks again

I do not use quick circle cases, prefer something that can really protect the device. However, I can tell you that CyanideL (AOSP/CM) does have settings for it baked it, so it may well work in some of the AOSPs.

Would need to know your variant (e.g. LS990, VS985, D851...) in order to point you in the right direction. You may start by looking in the more specific thread for that device, if there is one. Generally, the stock-based ROMs are specific to a variant; AOSP sees more porting to different variants and devices.
Thanks again.....I am using LG D855....international and unlocked
Hi folks,
i hope there aren't so much threads around similar to this.
But as you see in the title I'm looking for a custom ROM for HTC M9.
Background is that i consider buying one but i'd like to make sure first that it is possible to flash a stable and supporting custom rom like CM13 or LeeDroid to it.
But as far as i figured out by scrolling throug this forum there isn't a rom available which supports all functions of this device, is that correct?
CM13 is not supporting the camera(s) and a few other things, but no support for the camers is actually a show stopper anyway.
I was not able to find out what LeeDroid is not supporting at the moment, but i'm quite sure it has also a few bugs...
Can someone suggest a stable rom for a daily usage, or can i forget it and do i need to consider using it with the "stock" rom and its bloatware?
My desire would be, having a CM13 or a customized ROM which is alike to it as a compromise. The most i'd like to have a cleaned rom without such performance killers like Sense...
Anyone?
Im using candysix that is based of Aosp with several good features. Id recommend both candysix and leedroid.

Thanks for your reply. I flashed LeeDroid on my One i got yesterday. First impression is nice.
Do you have some experience with it?
Any advice how to setup "Auto Unlock" with a 6 digit Pin ? =)
With a 4 Digit pin it unlocks right if the correct pin is entered, but this wont work with a 6 digit pin. I tried with Xposed Modules "Sense toolkit" and "Gravity Box" but no luck so far. =)

Hello everybody, I will start building Custom Roms in the next few days.
Which one I'm building I don't know yet, I'll try a few to build.
So be curious and wait for new info
Greetings kevte89
Hi @kevte89. I Would love PixelExperience ported to Mi 8 Pro.
Ideally, I would love to have customisations made to Phhusson's GSI ROM to get the non-working bits for equuleus working. (Fingerprint sensor, VoLTE most importantly). Then other GSI ROM developers would be able to integrate those patches to their ROM to instantly give us a good choice of ROMs.
Maybe that could give you some ideas, but a custom MIUI ROM is probably not what most are looking for.... I'm looking for more stock based ROMs to get away from MIUI.
By the way... did you get started yet and do you need any help testing? You can reach out to me in a PM... I have professional software testing experience that may be of benefit.
I'm new to RN8P world, and don't have time to test all roms from this forum.
Actually i'm on stock MIUI 12.5.5, unlocked bootloader, but I heard this device bricks easily, so I don't have time to fix mistakes...
I need help and tips from you guys to choose the more stable AOSP rom for RN8P, I'm counting on you

I want to squeese more RAM and I don't like MIUI too much, I feel spyed...
Then i will suggest some from my experience:
- For customize: AncientOS and Nusantara are good for me
- For camera: If your phone is India one, LineageOS GSI from Timjosten is the best, based on Q-Oss and use Miui Cam with it feature (not ANX)
- For battery/perfomance: Try some custom kernels and find out with are the best for you
- For A11 with A12 exprerience: DotOs A11 is good
- For A12: not stable, but some can use at daily rom (AncientOS), some other A12 roms has some other bugs, Bluetooth issue.... And mostly screen recorder won't work by defauft, need to install other app or do something idk.
- And some other roms with their special you need to flash to find out.
- AOSP has some random bugs. And it's good for me doesn't mean it's good for you. Maybe just flash and find out with one suitable.
- If you dont know where to find these roms and their flash guide, you can try type Redmi note 8 pro Official or Update on Telegram. Idk why they drop many updates and new roms in XDA
Hello, I have a question. Samsung is a good phone, I'm satisfied but I'm switching from Xiaomi and I miss the Custom ROM options. I've only seen RayOS so far, are there others? Thank you.

Not yet. For people wanting to stay in OneUI but with lots of custom options, RayOS is your best choice. For AOSP ROMs, they should be coming once we start booting Lineage and have stable trees. It's currently in the works, still trying to figure out a few things. Once that happens, lots of custom ROMs can be built on top of that, like Pixel Experience, HavocOS and etc...
