I love custom ROMs and, I hate the limitations that OxygenOS sets. But, I'm on OxygenOS because this is the only way that you can get the most out of this device. All the other Oreo ROMs are unfortunately not as snappy as OxygenOS. But, if you guys happened to know a ROM which has fast fingerprint, good performance (or a kernel to flash on a ROM), that'd be awesome!
My recommendation is vertex OS. Overall not too much settings but from my point of view already enough and very snappy also compared to Oxygen.
Until now just for Nougat available. It's under development, ETA unknown. If you are willing to wait this is a very good option to go.
Paranoid android and Sultanxda's cyanogenmod 14.1 are great roms, vertex os is also snappy. I would leave oreo alone for now, they are some great roms but not as polished as aformentioned.

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
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.

Mee too.. but also Xiaomi.EU support OTA update (eve if the download is not incremental, but full zip package).
:good:
Hello,
Guys please I need your help with something, I wanna flash a custom rom I haven't unlocked my device yet so this is my first time I just wanted your opinion.
Xiaomi eu to guarantee future updates.
Mi globe has some extra things and also lets you customize the rom right before downloading.
Epic rom and multirom are also good (epic is in limbo, it's not clear that it'll continue getting updates as it was on nougat but you can try).
But unless you really like miui or prioritize gaming performance I suggest you to install an aosp based rom such as los (or another rom that's based on either los or aosp). Also there're some aosp or los based builds that doesn't suffer on gaming performance.

I just wanted a good decent stable rom and bug-free so i though that any rom based on MIUI would be much better than the aosp based ones.
So what do you think for me i had a sony before and i was changing rom frequently.. and actually i sick of it i just wanted a very stable rom with OTA updates.

Then use xiaomi eu. But to me aosp roms are bug free and stable. No rom side issues with the official ones. So don't worry about rom issues while using them. Just have the recommended firmware version and enjoy.
Suggestions

Thanks for the answers

LineageOS 15.1 is in my opinion the most stable rom.

But... is Lineage OS faster than stock 8.1.0 ?
The main issue is that this device has only 2 GB of RAM... so if Lineage OS takes less, that would be amazing! (maybe you can post a screenshot of the average memory usage?)
I prefer ABC, since I stepped over from stock 1y ago. Pure AOSP +some usefull extra's, no bugs, fast. Latest build. But:
1. best-ROM-threads are unwanted here, because everyone has his own best ROM. Use search function and read earlier threads.
2. Bullhead has BLOD-problem and BLOD is hot up by CPU. So don't prioritize speed.
None, stock 7.1.2
Best one so far

Yes, but it's not updated
In my opinion Slim Rom 6.0.1 is the best ROM you can get for this phone. It is the fastest, quickest, and most reliable.
I personally went back to stock ROM after Pure Nexus stopped updates. For my basic use, stock runs fine, updates regularly (just updated to 9/5 update), and has been totally reliable. But it's not my main phone, so I don't want to spend time screwing around with it.
Hai.. Need your opinion on which one is better in term of smoothness, battery life and etc... I love miui but if android pie is better, i will flash it of course. thank you

Both roms are stable on their behalf on Android pie it depends which rom you are using some roms are buggy or lag sometimes but some are smooth As per now Pixel experience is best stable rom by now and you can try more also
Custom roms, much better than official MIUI rom which is full of unwanted garbage, ads, etc...

There is Mi-Globe which are MIUI ROMs based on official but with all the junk removed (optional). You choose which junk to remove (select expert settings) and build ROM accordingly:

Good to know, I never heard of that before!
I still prefer a AOSP rom, but this mi-globe appears to be very good for someone sticking to MIUI!
MIUI 10
Custom Android 9
Pie worse , graphic glitch common problem. Use oreo as for now untill pie stable enough.
I would suggest either 8.1 custom roms or Miui 9 (10 is just not as great in terms of perfomance etc compared to 9).
Just my opinion.
I get similar battery life between some custom 8.1 and miui9, just a matter of debloating miui9 manually and then its pretty much the same minus the customizations that custom 8.1 roms bring (unless you go LOS)
PIE is still at its early stages when it comes to custom roms but you have Pixel Experience, Liquid Remix which seem to be most stable albeit with some bugs etc
