So, I was tired with RealmeUI and decided to do some experiments with my phone. For the last few days I have been flashing numerous custom ROMs. I'm gonna share my experience with these ROMs. Hope it helps someone decide which one to flash. Earlier this post had some other ROMs mentioned too but I removed them as they were updated recently and I haven't tested them. So, can't provide my review without flashing them.
1. PIXEL EXPERIENCE PLUS & PIXEL EXPERIENCE
This is by far the best custom rom available for this phone. It's been one week and I'm still using it. The UI is buttery smooth. Gaming performance is awesome and battery life is good. The only downside of this ROM is that it doesn't have extra features like the other ROMs. This is purely STOCK. And damn I miss the OOS recorder from Derpfest. I know there's a Magisk module to get the oneplus apps and I did flash it. But the screen recorder was just not there. I tried installing ported apk. But the apk wasn't installed. So I used a app from the playstore- "SCREEN RECORDER". From my point of view this is the best rom for non gamers! I would recommend Evolution X for the gamers out there. I did install only two modules on this ROM - AML and Dolby Atmos!
2. EvolutionX
This is my daily driver now . The smoothness and performance is as good as PE+. But this rom has some extra features which is very essential (to me). If you game a lot and do screen recording, this is the one for you. There's a dedicated gaming mode which turns on automatically when you open games and oos screen recorder. It's a very feature rich rom. The latest version of EvolutionX needs RealmeUI firmware. So flash it first if you're on COS.
3. Havoc OS
Used this ROM for almost two days now and I can tell this is a good ROM. I didn't do gaming though. By the looks of it, I think it will handle gaming just fine. The XDA thread of Havoc is outdated. Join the Telegram Group to get the latest version(which is 3.8). And it needs RealmeUi firmware so flash it if you're on COS.
any bugs in Pixel Exp Plus or should I stick to Realme Ui
I can confirm. Been testing all the three and while I loved them Pe and pe+ are far the best in basic functions like speed, ui, battery, performance. Yet it is true it's very stock android like and missing some extra features but I don't mind for I'm a purist and you can always add extra content, apps, features by downloading and on a rooted device there is no such thing as completely impossible ?
Is there any properly working call recorder in pe+?

Actually, there is one impossible thing- " you can't install the OOS screen recorder (I couldn't). Tried the ported version and the magisk module Oxy-ify. The app just doesn't install.

You have to sacrifice some things. The private safe of realmeui isn't there. You have to use Gcam. Stock camera features(48MP) won't work. Slo mo does work but is kinda useless. The secondary lenses work but the macro is pretty useless I guess.

Well, there will always be stuff that won't install on different ROMs. I tried so hard to get 48 mp on custom ROMs but found out that it's kind of faux yet a good 12 mp gcam shot can be just as sharp and detailed as an oversaturated stock 48 mp shot on stock ROM. So I gave up on it and I don't mind. There are some stuff you can't install but if you're creative enough you can get around them. I'm sure there are good enough screen recorders out there ?

I never cared for the 48MP mode. Even in stock rom I used it only twice. Normal 12MP images turns out better than the 48MP images.
I know there are screen recorder apps available out there. But none of them were as good as the OOS screen recorder so I shifted from PE+ to EvolutionX.!
Best rom, lineageos. But it seems nobody is developing it anymore... But still using it and it's great
Let me use this thread to ask this: is there any custom rom being actively developed, that does not have gapps included? Thanks.

1. DERPFEST
The initial impression of this ROM was great. Performance and battery life was way better than the stock ROM. And the games ran very smoothly(including cod mobile and pubg mobile). And it had great features too e.g. - OOS Screen Recorder. You can't find the app anywhere on the app drawer. It sits quietly in the quick settings. If you don't see it just add from the tiles. But after two days to usage ROM started behaving weird. Occasional lags and stutters in the UI. And some apps were crashing. And sometimes the will go to a bootloop. To get out of the bootloop you have to go into TWRP and flash caches. It is not a solution though as the bootloops would occur again. So I decided to dump this ROM. I didn't know what the reason was. I posted a comment on the post of derpfest but I got no reply. Well, I had installed too many magisk modules, which were useful actually. Viper,ICE sound, Dolby Atmos, Audio Modification Library. Can this be the reason?? Is there something called "Module Overload" exist?
2. POSP
Here I only didn't face the bootloop problem but faced others mentioned above. So I got rid of it before it begins the stucking in bootlogo problem.
3. PIXEL EXPERIENCE PLUS

Evolution X has also a bug, the ported screen recorder doesnt support internal audio recording but great recorder because of 60 fps reolution. Only the default recorder works.
Anyone tried havocOS?
Hi, I was considering installing Pixel Experience plus on my phone. Do I need to have coloros or any specific version of realme ui to install it? I'm currently on Realmeui v11_c.05. I haven't rooted/flashed a recovery yet and plan to do it tomorrow. Should I download coloros before trying to flash this rom?
P.s Thank you for your detailed post, I was quite confused between PE/PE+, evox and derpfest.

I don't know what's wrong with this post but I can't seem to get the edit option. So I'm writing this in the comments-
"The latest version of EvolutionX doesn't need COS. It needs Realme UI firmware. So, if you're already on RUI don't need to downgrade"

I was WP/iOS user and recently switched to Android. Just got my OP3, which is my first Android device. I am wondering, which custom ROM should I get. I kinda need more battery life and SOT so I want to ditch the OOS.
Do note that I have literally 0 use for fingerprint scanner, android pay and camera (well, not fully but any mediocre quality camera/pictures will work).
Also, I would appreciate if there is any guide or video tutorial, showing the whole process of custom ROM installation.
I would recommend Cyanogenmod 13.0 with Elemental X kernel.
Here is a tutorial to unlock bootloader and install TWRP Recovery
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KQoYTvV1PNM
And here is a tutorial on how to install Cyanogenmod 13.0
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mR4NkdHEq20
OOS is a great near-stock rom tbh, but if you still want to try another I'd recommend Sultan's CM
Would recommend you to stay with stock as you may feel all this tweaking thing a bit laggy (coming from iOS , which doesn't let you even customize properly) but for sake of having the taste of tweaking :
Its a 2 part step
1) Unlocking bootloader , installing TWRP , backing up your data (as this will completely wipe out your phone) including whats app (using google drive built-in feature) and messages (using "SMS back up and restore" available in Play Store) . Avoid using links provided in video discriptions

TWRP Recovery : https://dl.twrp.me/oneplus3/twrp-3.0.2-1-oneplus3.img.html
2 ) Installing Custom Rom close to stock with patched Kernal would be better for you to address battery and SOT issue and lot of audio mods , I would suggest freedom OS 1.6 CE ,

I'd say OOS on stock has the best battery. If you want some rock hard stability along with battery, go for ElementalX kernel on OOS. If you dont want OOS so badly, then go for sultanxda s rom.

I've never been interested in securing my phone and thought I would not use the FP scanner but found it is the quickest and easiest way to unlock the phone so I use and love it now. Just a quick press and the phone is ready to go instead of a double-tap + swipe etc. I suggest you get familiar with OOS for a while before you jump.
Resurrection Remix Blackjubel is great
There es elementalx Kernel preinstalled
It's smooth and stable and battery life is also good.
And you have many in build Features so you don't have to install xposed.

Just at OOS, just root it, install Xposed and use Amplify and Greenify. It'll boost your SOT a lot. Also don't use Chrome browser. It drains battery a lot.
No one can tell you what the best custom ROM for you is as everyone's preferences vary, my advice stick to stock for now . SOT will improve over the first week of usage and you need to get to know the device / OS before choosing a rom to mitigate any perceived weaknesses. Take your time assessing new roms, as I said SOT will take about a week to stabilise. Above all enjoy yourself it only takes a few minutes to flash a new rom do why not try them all.
New to android?
Then start reading, you have a hell lot of things to learn, don't blindly jump into what random users says is good, laziness will damage your phone and diminish your trust in Android

Hey there,
I have started using this ROM for a while and the Combination of this ROM and the Kernel is great!
The ROM I am talking is AOSiP. Though this ROM is Unofficial and quite old, the developer i.e. ankit99 {https://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=4924861} has done a fabulous job in maintaining the stability and functionality of this ROM while keeping Bugs minimum!
The Kernel I am talking about is called Jaguar Kernel. If you are in the development of ZUK Z2 Plus, Jaguar ROM is hard to resist due to its mind blowing stability. This Kernel is derived from the very same ROM. Probably the best Kernel I am working with. Dark Moon and Heliox are great without any doubt, just they never worked great for me on any ROM.
Instructions:
1. Take a Nandroid backup first. In case anything goes wrong, you should have some back point to restore.
2. Wipe Dalvik Cache, Cache, Data & System. I recommend deleting Android folder from Internal Storage (sdcard) from TWRP File Manager.
3. Flash the ROM, Gapps (Use 7.1 & 64-bit ones, for Z2 Plus).
4. Flash the Kernel at the last and wipe Cache/Dalvik and reboot!
5. Note, First boot will take some time.
6. Post features, I recommend dpi as 380 to be ideal for Z2 Plus.
Enjoy your Android Experience!

Regarding Fingerprint Scanner, it works simply great! It responds almost 99% of the times and quite fast even more than stock ROM according to my experience. And the fact you say about no notification issue, there is an Option to automatically enable DND during calls in this ROM and it disables immediately after call is hung. So, you should not encounter such issues practically. I am using this ROM for a while now and really in Love with its stability. Go for it!:good:
I have attached a screen shot regarding the Auto DND during call option.

No man, as long I have used custom ROMs, this feature is toggleable in this ROM itself!
Im running PureFusionOS + Jaguar Kernel for about 2 months now, and the feature set + stability from it is perfect. I would wish that PureFusion could have better performance/battery efficiency though
I've justobought this phone. Do you recommend me to flash this rom+Kernel as my first daily driver? Or should I go with aex4.5?

I would recommend this ROM for your daily driver as it is a mix balanced performance and battery life, providing almost stock Android with lots of customizations! Also, a MIUI camera flash would be the icing on the cake.:good:

How is the audio clarity and quality when compared to the stock ROM? I have stopped flashing any custom ROMs - be it Oreo or Pie just because of this issue. Also, could you please share the full camera version that you are currently using - is that without the Portrait mode? Also, how much screen-on time are you getting?
Hello there... this post got my interest too. I have jumped back and forth between stock and custom. It is sad "for me" that it seems most devs have given up on supporting / maintaining Oreo 8.1. Everyone is trying to iron out the bugs in a Pie custom... however, I simply want the stability to be there... especially with the camera features and battery life. I am not a gamer either, btw. With all of that said, I have a question or two please.
1. Why did you quote using an older version of Magisk? Is there a compatibility thing that I should be aware of?
2. With the Gcam mod you referenced, does stability work smoothly while recording video? I have found that in many custom builds the stability mode can be jerky and no too smooth.
TIA
UPDATE: There is a telegram group with latest nightly builds of genom kernel, they are mostly stable, there may be a couple of ussues with some of them (like phantom touches or random battery inefficiency), however you can find kernels that support our touch panel in android pie, and oreo roms, and they run butter smooth compared to stock rom, (thank you rama982 and all contrubutors to Genom kernel). Just download a kernel build you like, and then flash it after the installation of rom. genom_ci
It has been an issue for a long time, since Xiaomi refuses to release kernel sources for this module (or so i been told), anyways, many people encouter the issue with touch screen that doesn't work after flashing custom rom (screen flickering, response lag e.t.c). This issue was brought up in this thread, however there is no answer to a question that excites most of "novatek" owners that are here - "what can i actually install of all roms". I decided to make a list of roms that happened to avoid this issue, i hope this will help users like me, so they don't have to spend literally weeks stalking, testing, looking around at all sorts of places only to find another rom that doesn't work.
1. This is the easiest one, all MIUI roms that are available for our device are working flawlessly, official global roms, custom ones, they all work (i personally prefer Revolution OS MIUI 8.10, since it has an option for the chinese bloatware and spyware to be removed, and i find it the fastest one).
2. Almost all nougat roms ( the ones that are based on android 7.1, (and maybe 7) ). Or at least 95% of them, i had issues with some of them, but it's okay that some roms are less stable than the others, you will have to find what works best for you.
3. As far as i remember, all roms based on android 8, 8.1 DO NOT work with our touch screen, except the ones that were mentioned here.
4. Who wan'ts a piece of a pie? I think everyone, but not all of us can get it, since there is only a couple of pie roms that work with our panels:
Aosp extended 6.0 (only 28/10/2018 release so far, developers told that they will fix it but they didn't so far, this release is pretty stable and snappy though).
Dirty Unicorns 13.0
(I really like the esthetics of this rom, and a philosophy that stands behind it, but release is missing some important features for me personally.)
lineage-16.0-20181115 (As stable as aosp extended, or even more. Perfect rom for a new user that doesn't care about a lot of features, and just wants to do basic stuff without any bugs and crushes) (IMO)
GZOSP from Here, it's even more simple compared to lineage, but a a bit less stable.
Thanks to rama982 we have Nitrogen Os, it works fine, things are strating to change. (Live a like to Rama982).
This list is potentially suitable for EBBG touch panel users, but as i have no device on hands to test it, i can't say anything about it. If you are wondering wich type of touch screen you have, you can dowload AIDA from play store, or any other "sysinfo" type of app.
That's all. I hope this will help you, it's the smallest thing i can do, as i love the community of this place even more than my morning coffee.
P.S. If i missed something, you can comment down below, or send a private message, we all make mistakes.

Try LOS16, Havoc, or Bootleggers - or try the latest Genom kernels.
I tried out AEX 10-28 for a couple of days. i went back to xiaomi eu beta for full screen navigation. i also opted for genom eas nightly for miui. i think i'll stick with this setup for a while.
Can i use genom kernel nightly on pixel experience rom to support novatek panel?

I flashed just now the latest build of pixel experience on my device with genom nightly build for pie roms and it worked... No blinking or screen and the touch is working flawlessly, still checking for small bugs
Thanks for the thread and detailed info!

Yes tried many, including this.
It crashes as soon it is launched.
Try Open Camera... Its open source and pretty good! I use it daily.

In case anyone is interested, nitrogen os is working great on my ebbg display
i've tried pixel experience like @jharone23 said and it's working fine. i also installed genom nightly and it runs smooth. i think they worked out most of the kinks for novatek panel. i haven't tried the 12-31 build of the rom yet. gcam v5 works great. i also installed gcam v6 for better back cam low light and i'm satisfied so far. no problems with gps and lte. no network drops on wifi and data. i have mine rooted and installed kernel aduitor, also installed blex and youtube vanced from magisk repo. google backup works like a charm. played ro mobile for 4 hours straight on wifi. everything is great. note for benchmarkers, you would get lesser score in antutu compared to xiaomi eu rom with genom. i used to get 84k score with that setup but with p.e. and genom i only get 80k with performance setting in kernel aduitor. overall a 4/5 stars for user experience just because i was accustomed to full screen navigation in mi eu rom. A 5/5 stars in stability kudos to p.e. developers and genom. i won't be flashing any other rom for quite sometime as my current setup is stable enough as daily driver. maybe t.s. could include rom in the list. thanks jharone23 for the tip.
i have been installing roms since the galaxy y and s duos moved to galaxy grand and s3 neo however its been an age since i have installed rom and im trying to unlock my mi 11 lite ne 5G and im thinking of flashing a rom but i know roms have their bugs and problems and i really don't want to compromise my phone but MIUI sucks so i want you to speak thoroughly about your experiences with the roms you have installed and suggest to me {im book nerd so i will read any comment no matter how long }
I would recommend LineageOS. I have been using it for several weeks.
LineageOS Device Support Requirements make sure everything works correctly.
one or more maintainers for a rom
OTA weekly update and latest android security update
great support
minimal
open source

I am using it. I don't use Google Pay. Some banking apps mistakenly think the phone is rooted and disable fingerprint payment or exit. I don't know how to fix it.

Paranoid Android is my daily driver rom now it's the most stable , smooth and battery efficent rom for 11 lite 5g ne.
Slow mo video also works with gcam and the stock miui cam is amazing for videos and pro mode. ( i use https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-BigKaka/f/dl22/ this gcam. )
Battery is also better than the latest stock rom no more camera lags like stock in this rom.
And thankgod there is no crappy Dolby audio mods that causes bug aur losses the functionality randomly. Thanks to @Adithya R
I tried other roms also if you want to know my experience. ( these review are based on the latest builds. )
LIneage OS20 ( keeping track of rooting was a hassel in that rom and no camera support so no HD video recording ).
PixelOS has habit of ( slowing down randomly ).
Xperience rom is good but it has a ( bug when you are using navigation the stock google phone dialer gets stuck a lot. )
Arrow os well it's ( interface also becomes choppy from time to time. )
Evoulution X OS well it's broken ( not stable. )
superior OS was good but ( it has no option for heads up display to turn off. )
Awaken OS well rom is excellent but ( the stock miui camera is not stable and the equaliser has bug ).

EU roms are always generally better than stock roms the ui is more smooth than stock miui because they remove a lot of bloatware that comes with the stock miui roms and EU roms gives you more features too. But the development is in past recent years is not that strong in EU roms you can actually live with the stock miui than flashing a EU roms. If you want just a little more functionality over stock rom and a better battery backup or smoothness you can definitely try EU rom. But like i said the development is not strong so updates are slow and the amount of features you get are closer to the stock so it makes no sense to some people to actually flash a custom rom that's just as good as stock.
