In my opinion you should try HacosOS Mod. Very stable with lots of customization options

havoc os is perfect

If you want customization use HavocOS, great customization, regular performance
If you want performance use Pixel Experience CAF, the best in terms of performance of them all, no customization.
I recommend also PureCoffe Kernel for both roms

BlissPop unnofficial with firmware Pie

try greek miui xtrv rom with extra patches.among with miui pro they are the most customised miui based roms.

[ROM] 6045-ELUGA-DCZ - stock, oc kernel, gapps, root - 1.1

**************************************************
[ROM] 6045-ELUGA-DCZ
current version 1.1 (2016-03-24)
STOCK, STABLE, ROOT, GAPPS
**************************************************​
-I made it just for fun...
-it is not exactly a build. Its more a mod.
-based on latest PANASONIC ELUGA SWITCH (IDOL3 rebranded device) firmware (EB-90S55EWLv1009)
-I exchanged the kernel for the ARDE DEV TEAM STOCK OC one (4x1651 MHz + 4x1601 MHz).I used Group 1 kernel for my 6045Y device.
-including ROOT and GAPPS (latest supersu 2.65)
-added KERNEL ADIUTOR
-removed all unnecessary apps from TCL, PANASONIC and GOOGLE. There is only the necessary basic to run the phone. All other things you can download by yourself. So the ROM is about 900 MB on size.
-Due to source is the avaliable set of languages shrinken to see screenshots. But More Locale 2 app (preinstalled, but removable) will do the trick for you on most apps (except settings).
GUIDE:
-go to TWRP recovery (please make sure you use the @Unjustified Dev version from here
-wipe chache/dalvik/system/data
-install ROM
-If you are on 6045I or 6045K you have to download ad flash at this point the GROUP 2 OC Kernel from the htcmania.com site (see link below)
-wipe chache/dalvik/ (to be sure)
-reboot
DOWNLOAD:
From my google disk (size aprox 900 MB)
Here are all Kernels from ARDE DEV TEAM and the 6045I stock (6045Y stock, 6045Y OC , 6045I OC and 6045I stock)
ISSUES:
I dont know of any, you tell me.
changelog in 1.1 build (2016-03-24)
-just initial build..all as it is on stock, except kernel
CREDITS:
BIG thnax to @franq36 and @acura2201 of ARDE DEV Team for the Kernel, also thank @Grarak for the Kernel Adiutor.
Also Thanx to @Unjustified Dev, @famewolf, @Marionette and all the others who are making a great work for our device.
There is the link to the HTCMania.com KERNEL thread (Spanish)
And of course i am not responsible for any damage you do by flashing this on your device!
please wait amoment..my upload is slooow
nice i will test it

thath means more developers
i think it will be the same like i806...very little people will buy it. In china you can see even on TCL brand many users, many ports and many devs. On I806 there is only one dev in china.
I tried this out of curiosity, it didn't go so well... It freezes, screen shuts off then I have to restart it. Other then the freezing it looked pretty good, and I thought the Boot animation was funny on this phone.

its running on arde dev oc kernel.. try to flash stock kernel. my cpu is capable to maintain the oc frequencies so i had no issues with that. Except the lags that are also on stock firmware on idol3.
I can hold oc on the other roms tho, that's what I've been using for a few days.(and running right now) but I'll try it when I get a chance to see.

Hi guys, ROM very good and stable. But it seems to me that GPS very badly works, badly catches. Advise that it is possible to make to improve a signal of reception of GPS. Thanks
I solved a problem with reinstallation of GPS.conf
Hi DallasCZ,
Love the work you've done. Very efficient and usable, but I do have a stupid question: In regards of performance would you consider this more preferable in comparison to your 6045-i806-DCZ rom?
Also you state that 6045I users need to flash the GROUP 2 OC Kernel from htcmania.com and I assume this is the Nuevoboot_Alcatel_V1_6045I,6045K.img in your google drive as there no longer is a link to htcmania.com but I'd like your confirmation before I commit to this action.
Thank you for all the work you've put into this community!

since this is a stock rom, you can try to boot it with the keel whats inside. Or you can try to backup your boot. img from your stock rom and flash it after you flash this eluga rom.
hello DCZ i would like to thank you for your work, it is from far the best rom i've tried everythig is working perfectly, good performance and good battery life too with the advanced interative gov settings, really it's the best, all the stock stuff that we love about our phone, smooth (not the launcher still need of nova or else),no bugs no random reboot, lighter than the stock rom and with all the languages and the playstore as well. I definitely recommend this rom for those who want to have the best expereience with the Idol 3 6045 and the most stable. The only thing that i miss is the cyanogen theme application which is awsome and all the cyanogen ringtones alarms and notifications sounds but maybe someone can do something about it one day . Once again THANK YOU!!!!!

Too many RR/Resur. Rec. ROM. / What are the differences?

Hello brothers,
I see many, too many RR ROMS. I really try to understand what the differences are.
I read the first post, but it doesn't give me that extra information I looking for.
Please, can you guys tell me what the (big)/(small) differences are?
This one are now availble all: (sorry for my horrible English).
[CAF][Sultan-ized][UNOFFICIAL]Resurrection Remix ROM [5.7.4][May 1]
[LOS][OTA]Resurrection Remix N[UNIFIED][OMS][7.1.2_r8][21 MAI]
[Official Rom][Unified-Builds] Resurrection Remix [OP3/3T][May 10]
[7.1.2]-ZeNiTy-RR-Evolution-[EAS-VOX]-[OMS]-[Magisk]-[MicroG]
[OP3T/OP3][Sultan-ized][UNOFFICIAL]Resurrection Remix ROM [5.8.3][May 9]
So I see some, LOS, OTA, CAF.
But what more? And .. Which one is the most stable with best battery life?
I really don't have the time to install all of them and try it
Thanks in advance, guys.

CAF= provided with drivers developed by Code Aurora Project, which are more reliable than others;
LOS= based on LineageOS, useless wording since CyanogenMod is no longer supported;
Unified-build= developed for both Oneplus 3/3T;
EAS= kernel scheduling system (HMP) aimed to power saving https://www.linaro.org/blog/core-du...core-dump/energy-aware-scheduling-eas-project;
VOX= another kernel scheduling system (HMP) aimed to power saving https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...kernel-vertexos-blazar-zenith-kernel-t3571781;
OMS= means that the rom is provided of Sony framework, so Substratum should be fully compatible;
Sultanized= rom tweaked like the user @Sultanxda does.
I would discourage you to install Resurrection Remix.
With Lollipop it was simply perfect, with Marshmallow it became a bit unstable, with Nougat it completely lost stability.
I hope to get wrong (since my latest RR installation goes back to January 2017, now I'm on Dirty Unicorns).
Personally I would stay on Official build for a better support: Resurrection Remix is a derivated of a derivated (RR-LOS-AOSP), it's already "messed up".
The Sultanized variant should be greatful, but it's still based on Marshmallow.
However there's the EAS-VOX variant, which should be excellent in terms of battery like and provides also Magisk, Substratum support and microG.
So you've to choose: for the best stability go with official RR, for the best experience go with EAS-VOX variant.

Yeah I'm very happy.
The latest stable release (v11.4-20170506) is simply perfect, the only issue is the lacking of USB OTG support.
You have most of the RR tweaks, even OmniSwitch, you have also the useful Op. App menu and Substratum support (that should be absent in official RR).
You have the essential, dialer is provided just because needed in a phone... otherwise they would remove it ?
User is fully master of his device.
The only suggestion is to be careful when installing weekly builds.
They are not so stable as said by developers.
Good luck

Official RR also has OMS support. The first post just isnt updated i think.
I am always looking for the best ROM.
At the moment I use LineAge from sultanxda.
I install Dirty Unicorns, AOSP Extended & Phoenix version, RR official and eliminaters version, crDroid and watch videos about other ROMs.
RR has really everything and every feature of any other ROM I tried. So the all-in-one package is RR. The version from eliminater has TugaBrowser and some extras like Google camera etc. I hope I remember correctly.
But then I go through every feature and compare with LineAge and I saw, I don't use any other feature than LineAge features.
So I try LineAge from sultanxda for battery life now to see, if it is better.
I have no experience with kernels and changing kernel settings and I am not sure, if I want to do that. I hope, sultanxda has made everything automatically.
I think, a comparision thread for all ROMs here would be very helpful for new users, because here are so many ROMs, kernels etc. :silly:

Those two are not true, these are not features but replacement of the whole HMP system from how the CPU handles tasks to frequencie usage. I cant say too much about it but it aims for better peformancr/per watt and yes with the right setup it achieves this. EAS incombination with Voxpopuli did not only increase battery for me. But the magnificent part comes to peformance.
Voxpopuli is a really smartway of input boosting, yes we need input boost for a smooth UI experience. Voxpopuli can detect swipes and touches. The faster you swipe the longer it boosts to be sure it will give the Smoothest experience you can have, touches boost way less then swipes.
Correct me if I'm wrong.

Thanks for making this thread, was looking for something exactly like this!
So are you guys sure that Zenity has the fastest fingerprint? I'm about to flash things I need real reviews guys
Which one's fingerprint is fastest?
Zenity or Official or this one with be delighted text or this one with no indication of what it is?

Alright so I'll reflash Zenity since I had it before with very slow fingerprint and stuff. I won't restore anything this time. I let google play download the apps that I was using before but I won't this time. Don't know if it will effect anything but this is very slow! I can't keep going like dis ;-;
I'll flash a all new clean Zenity and share it with you.
Yes it is laggy the time that passes while I wait for screen to turn on is longer than the earth's existence..

Best stable and batterysmooth ROM 8.1.0 [OREO]?

Hi all,
What is the best, stable and batterysmooth ROM?
I need this future:
Faceunlock
Good battery and stable
Latest security patch
Optional: Gesture pattern/dots 6x6
Any idea's? Tips? Kernel suggestions?
Thanks
Oneplus' Faceunlock is not available in custom roms, have to use google's trusted faces
Every rom available is more or less the same in term of fluidity, and all of them are stable. I'd give a try to LR - Omni/Treskmod - Pixel Experience (and basically every Rom currently in development on XDA)
Battery is subjective and heavily based in usage; however, bluspark and singularity kernel gave me the best results in term of fluidity and battery life
Stick with stock then.

I'm using Xtended with face unlock
Treskmod is pretty stable and battery friendly but you need to use google's face unlock
xtended with tripndroid governor but of course with the face unlock of google.

try pixel experience rom.. its the best :silly::silly::silly::silly::silly::silly:
I am wondering too.
NitrogenOS pie is the best
based on my experience!
i honestly think dotOS is far better than rest
where i have tried the following
lineAgeOs
RR6.1
AOSip
CrDroid
PE &
PE Extended
ArrowOS (second best)
cardinalOS
OMNIROM (thirdbest)
I judge good/bad rom based on following
1. whatsapp calling behviour / volume
2. messenger/fb behaviours on custom rom
3. sound/volume / music
4. Kcal support in kernel given in rom (only dotOS has it)
5. network speeds (found omnirom very slow!)
the following i didnt consider much while judging rom
1. UI Customizations (RR is the best in offering heavy customization)
2. camera to Api
3 ota updates etc
mookee rom is good

I tried pixel experience and had a WiFi problem, WiFi signal was not stable and lost connection once in a while. PE extended was better for me. Just my thought
try MSM xtented, it has the best battery life with stock kernel ,whatsapp video calling works after enabling cam2api , has tons of customizations like resurrection/havoc, substratum works amazingly well unlike dotOs (fav substratum themes - Vacuum/dark,flux/white,spectrum,nineteen)
I've tried all the roms like almost all of them
Aosp based rom 8.1 - MSM Xtented
second choice - Aosp Extended / DotOs
MIUI Base rom - Xiaomi.eu Rom (Currently using)
second choice - Masik Rom
Pie based Rom - PE Extented by far the most stable pie rom
Best Kernel - No Name kernel
second choice - CodeX 1.7
I'm sharing my experience and opinion , I can't guarantee you that you will get the same experience as me but you can definitely try ; )

Its almost stock with no bloats and no ads also it does support third party themes with little bit of customizations,
but you have to flash cam2api from recovery, I'm using this rom because of the camera(using Gcam), smoothness, strong network, great battery life, most of all stability.
I am also looking for a stable ROM. i mean good camera,battery,fingerprint sensor,substratum theme...as i go through this thread,i will try the following 1)dot os 2)AEX rom..any other suggession for my type of use?

OTA supported? Or we need to flash updates through recovery?

It does have updater app after downloading the update you have to flash it via twrp/redwolf , but remember you need to flash magisk, cam2api every time when you flash an update not necessary only if you want root access on your Rom

Future Updates (official) or Custom Rom?

Hi everyone!
I have my OP 5t (8/128) since release date and it is still my favourite phone!
I'm thinking about future update policy from OP... Still running OOS 9.0.4, but how many updates will we get in the future?
Is it better to switch to a Custom Rom for better and longer support in the future? If yes - what Custom Rom do you prefer and why?

Pretty sure they will update 5t to q, dont know what will happen after that.
As for custom roms, try anything you want and see what suits your taste. Resurrection remix is a good example for customizations (or aex, havoc, coltos etc)
Omni Treskmod is kinda a flash and use style of rom. It is almost like Pixel Experience. You can also try diffrent kernel-rom combinations. You can try HMP and EAS based kernels. EAS is the one google have in their phones. You can google it up.
At the moment im trying DerpFest. My top 5 roms are;
1.Aex-Krieg(love krieg aex kernel)
2.ColtOS(Reminds me miui cause of it's diffrent recents style)
3.DerpFest(love it's boot animation and wallpapers)
4.Omni Treskmod(simple custom rom that you will never have a headache with but lacks customization)
5.CrDroid(enough customizations and overall stability.)
Some of the roms have problems with camera2api with WhatsApp and Instagram. I have asked many devs and thankfuly thry have fixed those problems. I would stay close with roms that have active telegram groups as you might need to troubleshoot if you find a bug.
Some roms have outdated xda threads such as ViperOS(saw a comment),ResurrectionRemix(latest builds in their sourceforge). So be sure to check their websites(if they have one) for latest builds before you download an older one.
Hope it helps...

Thanks a lot for your opinion!
I tried different Custom Roms, but all have one or two bugs, so i turned back to stock OOS... The most stable and bugfree Custom Rom for me was Pixel Experience!
Hope we will get a few updates in the future for our OP 5t

What's your opinion about RenderZenith or Weeb kernel? Those two are EAS right? Also franco kernel?

Franco kernel and app feels like too complicated for me. RenderZenith is good if you want only eas and no other custom stuff(it will give you a little bit better results compared to stock kernel.). It is best for people who want to flash and use. Weeb also got better with it's beta versions but still, i would use it if i was playing heavy graphical games. If you want battery and stuff you can set manually go for Aex-Krieg kernel.
If you want pure HMP kernel that is focused on battery i would suggest Mad Kernel. Eas is not really best for battery, it is best for balanced
Dont get me wrong, franco kernel might be good but it doesnt suit me and i really didnt get use to it.
