As all of you know there is types of ROMs for this device like RR, LOS, OOS, DirtyUnicorns and many more.
I'm leaving OOS for now due to low customization chances and I'd like to ask your opinions about all these ROM's. There is a LOT of Q&A threads about the right ROM but none of those matched my requirements.
First of all ,the most important and the reason I wiped OOS, the fingerprint unlock should be as fast as OOS. Of course there should be good battery life and performance duo which is impossible to find together.
But the most important ones are customizations and fingerprint unlock speed.
Thanks in advance for helping me out.
I have the same problem to decide, because so many possibilities make decision difficult.
If you want features, features, features and customization Resurrection Remix is the best, you get everything. With the unofficial versions you get some extras like battery optimization and kernel optimization etc. I don't know, how good this is. I only have a short look at the features.
Dirty Unicorns hasn't as much features as RR, but enough for most people. I don't know, how good performance and battery life is. Only have a short look at it.
At the moment I use LineAge OS with sultanxda kernel, it has great battery life and camera should be great, people write, I don't test it really
But it's only LineAge with LineAge features, nothing more. Enough for me, if I am honest, but if you want to customize everything, take Resurrection Remix.
There are many other nice ROMs, but they have the same or fewer features than Resurrection Remix. Here and there some optimizations, other kernels etc. I don't see anything special. Perhaps someone can tell us more.
There are so many ROMs like crDroid, LegendRom, Vertex, AOSP, Phoenix, DarkRom, AICIP, AOKP, Omni, Slim and million more. I test some and watch videos about, but it all has typical features like Resurrection remix has. I think, they are optimized for battery or performance and things like that. Would be nice to have a good comparision, because you can't see the trees in the forest

That decision is very personal, I bought OP3 2 months ago and since day one flashed like 25 roms, now I'm very happy on Phoenix AEX. All I need, no more.
My method was like this, downloaded almost all the ROMs, flashed with basic gapps, make no config at all and just go and see the personalization options, basic for me is center clock, tiles layout, button mapper. No option for that? Next ROM, at the end, with the ROMs I kept, flashed again with basic configs (no custom kernel, akt, tweaks, etc) and tested 2 or 3 days to see the performance, stability and battery life.

I tried all of them too.. Finally settled with experience lite rom

I don't have time to test every single rom so I want to ask the people on here what they think is the most stable rom. I don't really care about features I just wanna know which one has the best battery life, less bugs etc.

Yes stock was ok but I am asking for the custom ROMs
I settled on SAOSP after many weeks of testing many different ROMs. Seems best to me, combined with EX kernel
ABC-Rom, no bugs, stock feeling:

paranoidandroid ROM is awesome!
PureNexus or PixelROM
You could also look at Carbon Rom or Tesla (other GZR Roms are available ) or AospExtended or Slim
Then you have the Lineage based ones such as crDroid
I prefer the ones which are true to the Nexus look rather than Pixel Wannabes. But that's the beauty of the old Nexus phones that it very much whatever floats your boat.
@tactical bacon: that's, why 'best rom'-threads are unwanted here. Finally you get a complete list of all settled ROM.
Features and base are given in each OP. Battery-life depends on your usage.
PureNexus. Great team, solid ROM, nice features, quick updates, and very helpful thread.
I've had a iPhone 6 for 3 years and it's time to update to a OnePlus, a company I've been stalking for about 4 months that I've fallen in love with! Hopefully I can rack up enough Christmas money to snag mine!
I have spent a fair amount of time on the forums. I've read enough and watched enough videos to where I could probably root and flash roms and all that good stuff from memory, but there are a few questions I have...
I think I understand the difference between a modded kernel and a ROM, but can both be flashed? If so, in what order?
If anyone is familiar with jailbroken "tweaks" on the iPhone, what is it's counterpart on Android?
If a ROM or kernel is flashed, how do OTA updates work?
With the latest iPhone jailbreaks, there would be a good amount of instability (restarts, lots of crashes, etc). I see OnePlus phones are sort of meant to be modded, so is it in turn more stable?
Hopefully these questions were clear and not annoying, thank you in advance! I hope to be an active member of this community!
A kernel and a ROM can be flashed but I would flash the kernel after the ROM as the ROM flashes a kernel by itself so it would override your own chosen kernel.
Probably Magisk but Xposed is the equivalent of Cydia Substrate.
OTA depends on the ROM. Normally, you get prompted to download a ZIP and then flash it via TWRP or your custom recovery.
I wouldn't say that the OnePlus devices are more stable, but it has a bigger community compared to other phones. Same as the Google devices but since the Pixel they're insanely high priced. In terms of options regarding custom ROMs and custom kernels, OnePlus is a good choice. For Magisk and Xposed you would only need the right Android OS. No difference or benefits in having a OnePlus device here.
Looking to get this device but noticed not much development right now, is there a reason for this or am I just being impatient? ?
The developers are waiting for the oreo kernel source. Also, why would you want 3000 custom roms based on 3000 sources with 3000 different bugs when you can have 2 ROMs with no bugs?

I second this. I used to have Redmi 3s, the forum is filled with ROMs that hardly got an update after it was released. I'm not saying the development is bad, but development for the sake of it isn't gonna do anything good. We'll get other ROMs after they release kernel sources until then, Resurrection Remix looks really good if you can't deal with minimal nature of LOS. Both work, bugs are few and far.
Device pretty much just came out for Global users and bring up of roms takes time
Hey guys
I previously owned a Redmi Note 3 and flashed so many roms on that phone.
Now i just got a Redmi Note 5 Pro. Unlocked it. But currently I am very busy with assignments and don't have a lot of time.
So i can't keep flashing rom every few days.
Please recommend me a good Oreo rom. It should ideally not lag and have no random reboots. Basically I just want to flash and forget for a few months until Pie roms get very stable.
Thanks to all for their help.

Go for RR it's best so far in my opinion. Good bb ,no lags,no encryption ghost and of course edge gestures work really smooth on this rom.

Lineage OS 15.1 will be the best choice. Most stable & best battery life & no lag at all. Always go for lineage os official rom over others.

Have you tried any other roms? Many people have highly praised MSM Extended.

Bro listen! Lineage os is most widely used custom rom in the world. Your device has official lineage os 15.1. So you should flash it & see if you're happy with it. Only customizations not present in los. After that you can try any other rom you want.

"Bro listen" - This does not sound like suggestion, rather like a command. What is good for you does not really mean that it will be for someone else. For example, on devices I have used, RN5 included, pure AOSP roms performed better than Cyanogenmod/LineageOS ones. They have been smoother and better in battery life.
Just because something is official it doesn't translate to a better than everything else, MIUI is an official rom from Xiaomi yet some releases were a bug fest.
I've tried LOS/RR and than jumped to AOSiP Oreo, that's close to pure AOSP but with additional useful features and it has been more stable, smoother and more battery friendly than LOS/RR and overall performance was consistent. In combination with Insigniux/Derp kernel it's great.
I've seen reports of MSM as great one as well, so that can be considered as well.
Anyway you'll have to try different rom and kernel combinations to see what works for you.

Exactly.
Although I can understand why some newer members are just dazzled by the "official" tag especially in context of LOS.
I especially dislike LOS because of lack of so many useful features. Why should I need to use xposed and 10 modules to get those features when I have root and recovery and I can simply flash a feature rich aosp rom.

Ok. I apologise if i gave someone wrong suggestion. But i was telling from my experience as for me los official always works great with no single bug till now. What i've seen is people sometimes complain a lot about problems in other new roms. So i was saying in that way. Thanks for your suggestion. I'll flash aosip with derp kernel.
One question tho. I want an oreo rom with battery life similar to miui 9.6. can you suggest me that rom? Miui 9.6 is giving me 12 hrs & 13 minutes of screen on time. Thanks in advance.

No need to apologise to me, since your post wasn't directed to me. You didn't suggest anything wrong, but the way you suggested it was a bit wrong. Anyway, AOSiP is a clean rom with good features and a default Derp kernel is great for battery life, I have had up to 14h of SOT (that depends on usage of course) but as far as I remember it was never below 10h.

Use havoc os, it's feature rich, lag free and can be a daily driver for sure.

Neither one, it has Snap cam as default. You can additionally use whichever you want.
