Well dude the G3 development is extremely slow, and you say, why you say that. Many others devices more older than G3 have p roms not free of bug but enough stable for dayli driver for example motorola devices, xiaomi and many others, if you go and check the lineage Os Page you can see there's no single Lg that have official support for lineage 15.1, even an older device like g3 have 8.1 through Crdroid and is smooth and stable at least for my device D851 variant. So conclusions the G3 development is practically dead, thanks to God for the devs that continue with the development, you know slow but is better than nothing.

can anyone make or port rom like this https://forum.xda-developers.com/hot-2/development/rom-ios-10-clone-hot2-t3571114
for Moto G5
The answer is no, this rom is based on android 6.0 marshmallow and since the G5's source code only begins with nougat, a port would not be possible, the only option here would be to make a rom like this, but I really don't see why you would even want this rom seeing as it has so many bugs already.

It's now possible, but I doubt anyone will do it since the latest roms are now being built on oreo.

But the problem is not in the android version now all ROMs of this phone are the same and miui is something different and has a lot of features to give a different experience than AOSP ROMs
Sorry for my bad English
I always loved MIUI, bad luck there was only one device that I had the opportunity to try MIUI ROM, back in 2011, with my old LG Optimus One p500.
Would love to see MIUI in MotoG5

As far as I have read here in XDA. We have to wait for Android P GSI release, after which developers can start working on ROM for respective devices.
That still hasn't happened yet !! So you have to wait for that to happen before development can start.
There are rumors that LineageOS and Resurrection Remix ROM team has got their hands on that. But then again, I am not sure. It just talks happening in internet. But if that is true, expect ROMs based on those distributions tree to get P sooner than others.
Some flagship devices are getting Android p beta too
Mi mix 2s, nokia 7 Plus... And some others...

They are business partners of Google. So those hardware makers will get much early access to up coming code compare to general public. As far as I am aware, this code is still not open source, so legally also devs cant modify or work on this.
Regarding devices, OnePlus, Pixel, Nexus devices and many more will get much early access to this beta.
As far as I know, code will become open source with GSI release and that will start the development for custom ROM !!

I think the answer may be no mate. This device is getting pretty old now.

even if it is old think that on the part of the manufacturer there was so much support and both the developers share think this device does not have a future so promising had a lot of abandonment of ROMs like Lineage OS and pixelexperience I think I'm almost wanting to change the device by another think there will not be much for this device since it is becoming outdated
Hi!
If I understand things correctly, my Moto G5 phone is born with an Android OS version that only accepts 32bit code, although the hardware is 64bit?
Why did Moto do that? It sounds like selling a car with a 6 or 8 cylinders engine, and only use 4 of them...?!
And on top of that, I discovered they stopped updating that (primitive 32bit) Android 8.1.0 OS in February 2019...
Should I switch to a custom 64bit ROM? NB!: Stability and robustness is more important to me than fancy new features...!
I found 2 lists of 'Best ROMs for Moto G5'. The shortest recommends 8 here:
https://romsx.com/best-custom-roms-for-moto-g5/
So which should I choose?
NB: Moto G5 only has 16 GB.

You will have to ask Motorola for the answer to the first part
As for custom 64bit roms:
Lineage 17.1
Lineage mint (based on lineage 17.1)
ASOP android 10
Are the latest custom roms for this device (see dev section)
All will have the same issue with regards to camera/video recording not working fully

Thank you for your reply!
But what about ROMs that have been more tested in real life, where camera and video etc. work?
Yes - it is Motorola that should answer my first questions. I don't expect any answer from them... But others might have a comment...

All 64bit roms will have the camera issue as Motorola have not released updated camera libs
The roms I listed above are the latest roms which will have the camera bug minimised but you will still experience issues in some apps like only being able to take a certain amount of photos before the app freezes, camera not working in low light, green tint, video not recording/saving and so on. You can use various other apps but nothing is perfect and you may still experience issues
The only fully functioning custom rom with no bugs will be the 32bit lineage 14.1

That is the most useful information I have yet seen about custom ROMs - thank you!
But according to https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5/development/7-1-x-lineageos-14-1-moto-g5-t3611973 LineageOS 14.1 for Moto G5 is:
ROM OS Version: 7.1.x Nougat
Last Updated 2018-03-18
And the 'stock' OS on my Moto G5 is Android 8.1.0 updated in February 2019.
My intention was to UPgrade my OS, not DOWNgrade it... !
So THAT LineageOS 14.1 doesn't really seem relevant.
And on https://download.lineageos.org/ there doesn't seem to be a version for Moto G5(?) There are versions for G4 and G6, but not G5. (Neither under Lenovo - the actual producer.)
But thanks anyway!

Only official versions will be on the lineageos website
There is no difference between an official and unofficial version except the official versions are built on the lineage servers every week with any lineage side changes (not device side unless merged by maintainer)
However official versions have to meet certain criteria in terms of everything that works in stock rom must work in the unofficial lineage build submitted to become official.
As the camera doesn't work as it does in stock in lineage 17.1 it will never become official in its current state
They are listed under Motorola because that is the company that makes the phones
Lenovo is the parent company that owns Motorola

Thank you.
But I am not 100% sure about whether you are confirming that the stock ROM on Moto G5 is the newest available Android OS version where everything works?

All 64bit custom roms have camera issues due to no updated propriety sources

That's sad.
So when I want to buy a phone in the future:
Which other smart phone brands will probably not leave their customers with 'a choice between plague or cholera'...?

Samsung will have the most community support as they are the most popular phones
Google pixel will obviously have longevity
Xiaomi might be the best budget choice other than later Motorola models
