Best rom for helium?

Hello all,
I am looking for a stable fully functional rom for my 3GB/64GB Helium.
I have tried Miui - but when I found out that there are (major) issues with using a smart watch (or more specifically with android wear and notifications) I decided to look for other options (as my watch has to work!)
I am trying now Lineage for Helium - what other options would I have?
What would you all recommend?
Thank you for any suggestions...

I use RR 5.7.4, I have zero problems with it.

I use Global Beta 7.1.19, I have zero problems with it )))

I tried the global ROM and had several issues when using my smart watch:
the silence / DND toggles are mixed up ( I select "silent" and it triggers "DND" on the phone)
no notifications of any kind arrived on my watch.
I did some search and found no solution (other than others confirming they had the same problem).
If I cannot use my watch with the phone then it is a no go.
Or are you successfully using an Android Wear watch - can you please tell me how?

"I use RR 5.7.4, I have zero problems with it."
Thank you for the reply. Do you use by any chance a smart watch as well ? Do notifications work?

sorry, i don't us smart watch.

I'm using the Xiaomi.EU Rom.
https://xiaomi.eu/community/forums/miui-weekly-rom-releases.103/
I've also rooted and xposed without much problem. While I'm interested in LineageOS, Xiaomi.EU Roms are much better than the official ROMs and the development team is excellent.

[Discussion] Has anyone tried Treskmod?

Has anyone tried latest Treskmod (pie) ?
Does it feature Ambient Display - AOD and Music Recognition service?

I've tried the rom and experienced stutters and crashes, but some people have no problem with the rom whatsoever. What I'm trying to say is every experience will not be the same and you should see for yourself, if it doesn't work out then just restore from a backup. Also, music recognition if I'm not mistaken is where the phone listens to music and tells what song it is, right? That's not rom specific but it is a thing the Google assistant can do or many apps. If you have a Google search bar on your home screen just type "what's this song" and itl start listening.

what i meant by music recognition is the feature that pixel devices has, which identifies the song that is playing in the background automatically (in AOD).
but i guess that feature is not there in the Treskmod according to your ansswer.

it's an amazing rom but I don't think it has music recognition may be latest builds have it

Msms next update might have it but I don't recommend using this features as it gonna drain battery heavily. Havoc might have it also not sure tho. Our soc doesnt support offline always on voice thing. The OnePlus 6 above does I believe .

Smart Lock menu

Hi guys,
is there a way to get into the Google smart lock settings manually?
Unfortunately you will only see this menu by pairing a new bluetooth device, then you will get a popup regarding the smart lock settings.
This has been discussed a lot in the xiaomi forum, xiaomi just removed the frontend from all of their roms.
I tried a few apps like Smart Lock Launcher and Quick Shortcut Maker, but they do not work.
The build in feature in the lockscreen settings is only working for xiaomi devices.
Any solution?

No idea?

You're talking about MIUI? For the relatively short period that I used it, it looked to me as if Xiaomi had completely replaced the Android code with their own version that only worked with Xiaomi devices. I never found a way around it. It's one of the many reasons why I only lasted a couple of weeks on MIUI.

same
Likewise, seems Xiaomi only allows their own devices to be able to smart unlock the phone.
Google smartlock seems to be disabled.
I also don't get google map notifications on my lock screen.
Will be my last xiaomi device unless they fix this soon

Just switch to a different rom. Mine works spectacularly well on PE.

Don't really know enough to do that - plus I hate having to tinker with things. Wish I went with the One Plus...only issue I had on my One Plus 5T was the issues with the sound recording on third party apps

On MIUI EU I found that if you pair a bluetooth device it gives you the option to enable smart lock for it then you can press back and setup smart lock for onbody / location however smart lock doesn't work.
Even when connected to the bluetooth device / at home etc it still wants a pin if you just try and swipe up.
Pretty disappointing

Yeah, if I'd bought this and was stuck on MIUI, I'd be pretty unhappy. Have you tried it with one of the supported Xiaomi headset devices?

That's what makes me leave miui every time, you can install smart unlock from play store, everything looks like it's going to work but it doesn't.

It's like night & day being back on stock Android. As soon as I started using the PE rom I was overcome with an immense sense of relief, I'd been starting to wonder if I'd made a very expensive mistake by buying the MM3.

[Discussion] Which ROM are you guys using and why are you using it?

Hey guys,
Just wanted to know which rom you are using and the reason behind it.
I am using xiaomi.eu 10.2 stable, I am basically using it because of stability. I previously used pixel experience for a while, it was a bit of a hassle to boot it up.Since the dev was inactive and the rom had some bugs I had to use miui which I am not a big fan of.
The goal of this discussion is to find out if anyone is using stock android like roms without any issues.
Thanks

I'm using pixel experience, doesn't have any bugs and easy enough to install.
Only downside is the security patch is not up to date

Which version of the phone do you have? (Global/Chinese)
Can you describe how you installed it?
Is the proximity sensor working for you?

+1. That's the only drawback for me, other than that it's close to perfect.

I have the Chinese device, with the Chinese developer vendor image. Installation was just the usual, flash vendor image, flash rom, format data, flash Magisk.

Stock global, because I think MIUI is cool, and I bought this phone for that.

That's about where I was, other than the notification nightmare which made it close to unusable for me. I just couldn't see the point, my conclusion being it's designed for people who like themes, which aren't my cup of tea.

Yeah notifications are a disaster. I thought MIUI was cool and I have all the pixel XL devices too, so I have choices.

There are a couple apps for which I get notifications but no sound, most notably Google Keep and Settle Up. Other than that, I don't have major issue with notifications since 10.2 update.

Stock Chinese ROM with Nova Launcher Prime for me. I like the lack of Google trash, like Chrome, not being needed to use and access the Play Store. Literally the most bloat-free experience after uninstalling the Chinese bloat that isn't needed.

Dev eu rom. Since the first release. Happy with it. No problem at all.

Cn device with global Rom, I like MIUI battery management last all day with heavy use.

Xiaomi.eu weekly with Nova prime on top.
I really like it and notifications work fine it is just a little bit annoying that you have to set app specific settings for them to work properly though.

Guys what's the notification issue you're talking about?
Im on global miui too but i dont know exactly what it is?

Which messaging app are you using? For me, I could never get notifications to work properly with Google Messages, and with the native Messages app, group messaging didn't work, nor does it have a desktop interface. This may have improved with the more recent releases, but Pixel Experience was so good I have no need to bother trying MIUI again (the other big thing it was missing is the smart unlock functionality).

The only thing I'll regret in stock android is the full screen gesture. I love it in miui

Question Can you guys help me pick a stock android 12 rom to flash?

My Poco f3 is my daily driver and I can't test lots of rooms rn and I was wondering if you guys tested different roms and would be so kind as to recommend a rom. My most important feature is to be able to unlock just by fingerprint touch or press (as in without the need to double tap/wake up the screen first). Also a totally black (not gray) dark mode is important
Thank you in advance

What you search in it? Beside the features that you indicate. More raw aosp? More customization?

Yeah features and customization without diminishing stability or battery life

I use Evolution X but it's Android 13.
It has a Black Mode and lots of customization. It's a Pixel ROM so it also has Pixel-exclusive system apps and features. I can recommend it It also receives frequent updates and has a big community on Telegram.
The question is, do you want a simple AOSP ROM or a Pixel ROM with more features and customization.

Yeah more features and customization as long as its stable and has a good battery life. I kind of disregarded A13 bc I assumed it won't be perfected yet but I'll check it out now. Can you unlock from a black screen just by taping the fingerprint scanner?

Try crdroid. One of the most stable roms for our device. And it has plenty of customization

Yes, this is the default behaviour when having set-up a Fingerprint.
Doesn't every ROM do this by default? I think even MIUI. You can also configure to only scan for Fingerprint when Screen on, on Evolution-X too.

Probably yeah. its just that the last few roms I tested on my last device you had to turn screen on first. possibly bc they were early releases and scanner was under display but I gave up on stock android ever since mainly bc of that so I'm sure
