Been looking for the most stable rom [OP5T] - OnePlus 5T Questions & Answers

Hi, First of all I'm new to this forum, so i'm not fully known to the rules.
also, if this thread Q is not in the right place please don't go with the bananas on me and move it to the right place. thank you.
I'm here because OnePlus stopped supporting my device and ruined it on the latest OxygenOS version.
I decided its the right time to install a custom rom on my OP5T,
What is the most stable Custom ROM available for OnePlus 5T for daily use? In terms of battery, performance, stability. I don't need anything else.
since the last time I installed a custom rom was more than 3 years ago, I would like to get some information too.
thank you

I like Pixel Extendend
Great battery life

@Adir2016 Your thread was indeed at the wrong location, and it was reported due to the fact that your thread didn't qualify for the development section. I suggest to review the Oneplus device forum rules and the XDA Forum Rules to avoid such issues in future. I've not only moved your thread to the Q&A section but also removed your second post. According to the last bullet of rule no. 5 of the XDA Forum Rules you can bump an unanswered question once every 24 hours but not within two.
I hope you'll find soon what you're looking for.
Stay safe and stay healthy!

Negative, I apologise. I don't own a Oneplus and never have. Just be patient for others to chime in. Please remember XDA is read all over the world, and the members who could assist might currently be sleeping.

2 weeks since i install.
Absolutely stable, no crash or suddenly restart. Average battery time is 1 day and half (flight mode during the night) with 5h of screen (i usually play games for 1h more or less)

I would love to get some more recommendations for recommended roms, is LineageOS stable enough for everyday us?

Official Lineage 17 is very stable and frequently updated. If you choose to install any Android 10 Rom you can't go wrong depending stability but keep in mind that some of them are or might be soon eol. Resurrection remix or crdroid 6 are very stable and still get regular updates. I recently tried crdroid 7.1 and MSM xtended (both Android 11) and stayed with crdroid. Both are very stable and can absolutely be used as daily drivers.

One factor of stability is the gapps package as well. Had some problems with opengapps under Android 11. Switched to nikgapps

Back in the day, about 3 years ago, I could not trust a single custom rom that would give me the "day to day" stability and I eventually I returned to the original rom.

I always did as well. The custom ROMs were ok but I always missed some things that made oxygen os special like the great gesture navigation for example. Back in that time we got regular updates tho. At least in open beta....

1. Try out Arrow OS. It's the most stable Android 11 Rom for now. Tested 5 or 6 diff. 11 Roms and this was my favourite.
I build OTA updater and nearly every day a new build.
2. If you like a really rich featured Rom, take Derfest. It's my favourite regarding features and stability. Nice and helpful people there in the community as well.
A question from my side...
I'm looking for a 11 Rom with working "Android Auto". Seems to be a problem finding one. Tested only Arrows in that case for now, but without success. Anybody with experience here?

Stock because everything works and its not slow wait a week or so then we'll talk
hrm, I kinda agree with what he said .
Super excited for all the work being done though... but as a user with only 1 phone, I need to wait till things are a bit more stable.
best rom is over at android central
No Rom is the best yet lol. They are all the same Rom with apks (apps) added and removed. I mean really at the moment the only Rom that is actually different from any other Rom is my half ass working froyo build. This is the wrong section for this thread anyhow. Please post general question threads in q&a or general discussion, not the development forum.

What toast said pretty much sums it up. Also, I've seen that posting questions like this can cause drama in the community. Be your own judge and try them all. Different strokes...
No such thing as the best rom as every user will have different opinions and like different things.
Usually opinionated threads like these are frowned upon on XDA as they create endless long threads with no real anser due to everyone having different opinions. For these reasons I am closing thread.....oh and moving it to Q&A due to it not being development related

[Q] Best rom for long battery life?

Hey All,
I've got a question.
I need a good clean rom, with long battery life.
Right now I use VJ 4.2, and battery is draining rather quick.
It doesn't really matter which version of android it is, aslong as I can use the phone for atleast a full day (2 or more days would be better though) on a festival with moderate use, reguarly taking photo's, posting them to facebook, and using whatsapp.
Doesn't really have to do anything else.
Any recommendations?
Thanks in advance.

Swearing? the word hell is not swearing imo. sorry if it offended you
I am not asking for a best rom, im for something that would give me a better battery life for a couple of days.
I know each rom is different etc and everyone works hard, but I don't have time to flash 20 roms on my phone and test the battery life on each and every one of those.
So why wouldnt I be allowed to ask a question about it? people have expierences with different roms.
And I've read the forums rules, so those are the rules I use, nothing in there about asking about this.
My join date has nothing to do with this tbh, I only occasionally come here. if they've posted those rules somewhere else and it went to page 23083 or something like that, I can't do anything about that ofcourse.
If there is such a rule, it should be in the rules in the sticky in my opinion.

Well, "best rom" is in the title, so ...
It is covered under Rule 2 in that it is generally perceived as disrespectful to the devs that work for free to share with us. Also, it has been known on frequent occasions to start "spirited discussions" shall we say among supporters of various devs/ROMs. Finally, the experiences others have with various ROMs is generally not directly applicable to your phone as there are small variations in the electronics, your geographical location, cell towers and more that will add up to large overall differences.
Thank you,

Just got my S3 and already rooted. Need afvice

Hi guys, so I just got an S3 i747 AT&T coming from iPhone 4s.
I already have it rooted and would like to load a room as close to stock as possible. I really liked the Moto X however, the camera was terrible... I would like to get that experience..
What's most important to me is battery life. I would like to get the most batteyr life possible. Can someone recommend a rom? I was thinking one of the Cyanogenmod ROMs. I thought that 10.2 version is the stable one but it seems that only 10.1 is stable? Would appreciate some advice.
This should be in the Q&A section.
New ROM suggestion threads tend to get closed very quickly around here by the moderators, as there have been entirely too many that often turn into "what's the best ROM, or just pit one ROM against another.
You should always look in the development section, as there are plenty of ROMs there that you might like. Also, every phone is different, so what might work great on one phone might not work the same on yours. You have plenty of Roms in the development section that you can try, so that you can determine whats the best ROM for you. Just read up on them before flashing and follow their directions, and you should be OK.

Android is definitely not iPhone. As far as best battery life refer to the advice given. Try various ROMs that look appealing to you until you find one that is acceptable on your terms.

Quantum ROM would be the best for your battery buddy.
Well, as previously stated, users are expected to do their own research and make their own determination as to what rom is best for them.
All the roms here are the best, try them all.

Stable 4.4 ROM

I'm looking for a stable 4.4 which would be as stable as possible. The reason for this is that I use my Nexus for alarm clock and it's really unpleasant if I find it in SOD when I oversleep. I don't really need so much additional features, it's a bonus though, but it's more important that it's fast and bugless.
Are there any or should I stay on Cataclysm 4.3?
Well, you can only reliably know which ROM is the most stable by trying them yourself. That's part of the culture of XDA, to try ROMs from different developers and then to give feedback on them.
As for me, I just installed the latest CM11 nightly and it seems reasonably stable. Will test the battery life and stability for a few more days after installing some apps. Will try XenonHD next if this one isn't stable enough or has poor battery life. The phone does get hot when I'm running heavy applications and games, which is the only problem I have noticed so far.
Im running the CM11 Nightlies as well and cant complain at all. Havent had any issues with any of them. I usually update every couple days to the latest nightly.
If it's just using the device as an alarm, then CM11 nightlies would be quite enough. I've been using my own GNex as an alarm too.
Sent from Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE @ CM11
I've read through several ROM threads that a lot of them have have slowdowns and lags. Is that also the case for CM11? How about other CM based ROMs, like CM-remix?
Can't say much about other roms (aside from CM i've only ever tried AOKP jb-mr2 briefly), i'm on CM11 M2 right now and i can say it's smooth and has no hiccups and lags - much better than stock 4.3 and cm10.2 which i had beforehand.
I'm also using the device as an alarm clock and it works well.
Seriously? How many times do people have to be told that threads like this are against XDA rules. If you want a stable rom then try some roms out yourself and decide what you prefer for yourself. This is a development community meant for people that want to take the initiative to learn and do for themselves not a place for people to have others do their work for them.
Do some reading and you'll surely find the answers you seek.

me too. cant find anything. CM blows, pa has graphics glitches and vanir gives me reboots.
tried em all and they all seem to suck.
4.3 is waaaay smoother for me.
a stock 4.4.2 build would be great.
if anyone finds any decent roms + a good 4.4 kernel (Franco/Faux) or two let me know.
Nephilim, sorry, I thought that it's forbidden to open only general ROM comparison threads, but I'm asking only for the ideas of pretty specific needs. You could also take this thread as a discussion if 4.4 ROMs in general are really stable enough for everyday use.
Not all of us have time to test every build of every ROM, because it would take a bit too much. That's why we have a community here to ask others for their opinion and experiences. At least that's how I imagine it, but of course, I might be wrong.

No it isnt illegal. But these threads are pointless... There is no best ROM so these threads will never be solved/answered. And the devs work hard to build a ROM and then some people in a thread will tell him his ROM sucks and the other one is better.. Its personal preference anyway. And every ROM is stable otherwise they wouldnt be released on xda (except when told otherwise or in beta etc.). Thats the whole point. There are tons of these threads. They are just useless. Just try out a ROM and if it suits your needs be happy and thank the developer and if you arent just move on to the next one.

My problem is that if you aren't willing to put in the work and try roms yourself you have no business on a development forum. Asking others is just looking for someone else to do the work for you. Threads like this are basically spam because any info you need can be found in the threads made for each rom. If you are asking in a thread like this you are definitely lazy because you obviously dont want to put in the effort of finding the information by reading the rom threads. Mrgnex pretty much said the rest.

I'd fully agree with your comments, IF this thread was posted in development section, but it's not, it's in the GENERAL section.
So I don't see why NORMAL users(AKA non-flashaholics) can't freely discuss which ROM they prefer, regardless of stability.
BTW
I've tried out a lot of different/newer ROM's from 4.1 to 4.4.2 yet every time I've still went back to using PA 4.1.2 for over a year now, since no other ROM have the exact same great features I enjoy using daily.
Also I don't see why any Developer would really care if certain people dislike their ROM's, seeing as the whole reason they created one would be because they disliked the other ROM's available and wanted to build one them selves to their liking, many using the same features from other developers, just with their own tweaks.
Which is what I'm thinking I'll have learn to do since every ROM I've tested has some feature that's just not working as I'd like.
You suggesting every user go and test out every ROM just means there will be more individual threads created complaining about every ROM they flash/test.
So don't you think it's better to have 1 or 2 main ROM version threads in the GENERAL section to DISCUSS different individual Rom's in the GENERAL matter?
In other words if you don't really have anything to help out in the thread topic/discussion then just don't view it.
I personally enjoy reading about what others have to say, likely saving me time and headache from having to test out every Rom's myself.
I very much doubt there would be as many Rom's available as there are today if nobody discussed them.
Wasn't that the whole point of having an open sourced android OS?

First of all, threads like this would not be constantly deleted by Senior Moderators if they were allowed. Next, I never once said that everyone should go and try every rom. I said that people need to go to the rom threads and READ, if the rom seems like something they would like to try then they should flash it, if not move onto another rom. Next, after flashing the said rom they are trying they can READ the thread pertaining to said rom to find answers to their questions.
You see where I am going here?
There is NO REASON for threads like this. All the information anyone could need can be found in the rom threads. If an individual needs to make a thread like this it just says that they are too lazy to read all the information that is already provided in multiple threads, available to everyone. If you want to discuss a rom then make a community on Google+, I already have done the same. This site is called XDA Developers. If you have questions about a rom then read the thread about the rom and if you do not see the question you have already asked then go ahead and ask it.
If you want to make a thread here in the general section to discuss a rom you have already flashed and are running, that would not be a big issue either but..... Making a thread simply to ask others to tell you which rom is most stable or which rom is the best serve no purpose but to congest areas of XDA with useless spam.
If you are here, you have either rooted your device or plan to, either way if you are here for that then you have enough brains to read and gain knowledge the correct way by doing the legwork yourself.
If the amount of effort you put into trying to debate my legitimate reasons why this thread does not belong was put into discovering roms for yourself then there would never be a need for anyone to make a thread like this.
Bottomline, only lazy people make threads like this and XDA is for forum for adults seeking to enhance their knowledge of mobile development by way of contribution, not a G+ community to request everyone do your work for you while you sit around posting screenshots of your homescreen and icon theme.
Not a thing anyone responds to me with will justify these type of useless threads. Every way you can learn what you need about roms has been mentioned in my posts and none of them require an entire thread dedicated to asking others to give you the answers.

I would respectfully disagree. Not everyone has followed the entire course of development for the Galaxy Nexus from the beginning. It is hard to know where to start if you are just now reading up on things (as I am). People are trying to do their research otherwise they would just flash any old thing and then complain when nothing works.
In many other fields (I work in biology) it is very common to have a review article to get people up to speed on a specific topic without them having to read every primary piece of evidence on a topic because that is a lot of needless repetitive work that has already been done. It isn't being lazy. It is being efficient.
I stumbled upon this thread and found it to be EXACTLY what I was looking for and very relevant. Just a quick guide to let me know if it was worth looking into kitkat roms or if (as I suspected) I should stick with Jelly Bean roms for now since stability is also my primary goal. I can't understand the hostile nature towards people trying to educate themselves that seems to permeate xda sometimes...

Apparently you have not read a word of what I posted.
There is NO reason for these type of posts because all the information you seek on a rom or kernel is in their respective thread. Even if you do not want to use them you still have all the review you need from people on the thread that actually used the rom or kernel, these threads are a copout for lazy people that do not take the time to read where the information is already easily accessible. These types of threads are spam, they are made by people who come to XDA and do not even put a second of time into looking through threads before just expecting that posting a new thread and asking about what is the best will get them all the info they need without any effort.
I have said this many times already, In school, when you have a test or assignment, does your teacher give that test or assignment to you and then immediately hand over the answers? Hell no they don't, they expect you to research and study to find the answers. As adults that is what should be done here as well, otherwise you ultimately learn nothing.
I use the official 4.4.2 gummy build and it is very stable for me and have not encountered any issues.

Unofficial TWRP??

I was wanting to know if there was like a thread like OnePlus 7 pro threads have like a official/unofficial TWRP thread or is TWRP for pixel 2 xl dead
I feel like a lot of the build community has died but also understand people have life's and do this stuff on there own time big thanks for that but the way
Thanks again

First, TWRP for the P2XL is NOT dead. The current version works, which is why there aren't any unofficial ports.
Second, an update to TWRP to resolve the issues uncovered when updating to Android 10 is planned. The developer has a family and is concentrating on that right now, so it will be a while.
Third, take the source and build TWRP yourself. Then you can make the thread you think is needed.

Sorry if you thought I was complaining I just didn't know if I missed the thread somewhere
Thank you for your 3 points there
But I was just asking questions
I thought the xda community was a place people could ask questions
How things have changed

I doubt any insult was intended.
The answers were direct and to the point, but they were accurate. The suggestion to learn to dev on your own is simply that; in the event you can't find the development you're looking for, try and fill that void and learn to develop like countless others here have.
THAT suggestion has inspired innumerable members to learn to develop on their own, and many have gone on to be well regarded devs on Xda. So it's much more of a legitimate suggestion than the sarcastic response you may have thought it was.
