Too many roms, which one should I choose ? Which one is the best ?

I browse XDA everyday and these days there are so many new custom roms for OPX. I'm so confused choosing the one to be flash on my OPX (E1001). So I would like to make a vote so that everyone can share their experience about custom roms choosing. For me, After tried several roms I'm now back to OxygenOS since it's stable. Bluspark kernel gives me a smooth UX and fine performace in gaming. I got 27-29 fps playing Hearthstone on my phone.

Try them, read the forums and decide for yourself. Best rom threads aren't allowed on xda.

Try purity rom. You'll find it on purity community on g+. For me it's perfect. Not a single bug

Yup. That's the best way. Just try em all. I don't even have a favorite. Some are better in different ways. Right now I am running Oxygen though. It's the only ROM supported by the Boeffla kernel right now

I means I just want to find a rom which has good battery and bug free for daily use.

Bro you can use boeffela kernel on h2os also I have flashed boeffela 7 for oneplus x OOS on h2os and it is running smoothly no lags at all and on benchmark it is giving a score of 68k to 69k by doing some customization by boeffela config app

I totally understand this poll.
Following OnePlus X development thread for some time now, it is quite difficult to choose one of the ROM.
For those saying that we need to try them ... I tried most of them and can't figure out why using one compare to the other ...
Most of them are CM based or include exactly the same feature.
I remembered using TeamEOS ROM and this, was completely different (in my point of view). Some extra goodies included but all from them, with some differences (gestures instead of navbar).
I don't want to be rude dev, but except AOSParadox, all are quite similar for "normal" users (not developpers I mean) and when using one, you tried all of them ...

What is so different than all other CM based rom?

too many similar roms, it's quite annoying actually. would of liked some custom Oxy OS roms etc and H2OS debloated roms
all these cm13 roms are the same just rebadged

The biggest thing for me, that there are no bugs. No wifi bug, no invalid number bug, build in superuser works, so no need for supersu etc.
For me it's bug free,

Just tried it myself. No crashes here. I'm running with bluspark kernel 104 BTW.

I tried some custom ROMs but battery life is nothing like OxyOS..
I found screen on time 5.5-6 hr in oxy os & it's great...
So I am Desperately Seeking
Is there any Custom OS based on OxyOS/H2OS ?

yeah i would like a h2os lite version but not holding my breath for it. h2os with boeffla kernel flies. 71k antutu score.
also this vote will only show how many users r using their preferred rom. it will not show the best rom.

I am working on a custom oos rom. Will release when its ready (think about two weeks from now). And I'm still pending on permission from a few developers to use their source.

That's the very good news....
Custom H2OS may be better ..
Any way ???

So for me it's either ashwins cm13 or purity. But what all custom ROMs currently lack is encryption.
That is one thing (I know it is hard to implement) I really would like to see in the next builds as it is for me an essential feature when you are using a custom recovery and an unlocked bootloader. I hope there will be some focus on it within the next weeks.
The only option for now is: stay on stock

The links are to homemade builds. Any mention of them or bugs pertaining to them in the ROM threads will most likely piss of the devs.

I've been about to say the same. It's good you've made Pure Nexus for N BUT if that is home made keep it with yourself. You use github? The sources all yours? If not you are facing troubles as you've likely not been given permissions by the one having maintained the Pure Nexus for quite a while. Nor you quoted him in OP.

Terribly unsafe post. No one knows who compiled this, no source code, nothing. Do NOT flash, just to be safe at least.

Do not flash, Uberstock is not ready for prime time if you need ROMs go to the threads themselves.

You don't get the point. It's not hate. It's called being safe. It's one thing to download an app you don't know where it came from and install it on your phone but to uninstall an entire operating system that you are unsure where it came from? No way to report bugs? What happens if flashing the wrong breaks your device? Where are you supposed to get help at? Are you going to help people? I agree, if you were in need of a new get rom that bad then search the forums

Exactly. No hate but these are rip off roms and unsafe.

I didnt even knew that Uberstock is on Nougat. Thanks.
But after i flashed the latest ROM (08-27) and Cl3Kener gapps, i received dozen of "stopped working" alerts. Guess its still in some alpha / beta version.

Yup. I've been running the first build for the last week. Data & Wifi work 100%.
There is a new build (CM 14.1) that was posted yesterday which also has Data & Wifi working.

No, at least not a major one. Only small hiccup is that you need to wait 1-5minutes for RIL(radio interface layer) to show up.

The best you can hope by "staying" stock is a port of the Pixel ROM for the HTC M8.
GPe devices have stopped since 2015 so the only stock Android 7 ROM is the Pixel one.

Which isn't saying it any differently than you did before. "Stock" means completely different things to different people. To me, "stock" means the software as it came from the factory, in this case that would be official HTC software. Which for the vast majority of M8 devices, also means Sense.
Some folks say "stock" to refer to a "pure Android" experience, such as Nexus (with little or no manufacturer-specific "skinning" or other customization of the OS). But as a tiny portion of Android devices actually have Nexus software, this can hardly be referred to as "stock".
Others may refer to AOSP based custom ROM as "stock" or at least "stockish". But the very notion of a "custom" ROM is contradictory to the term "stock". While AOSP ROMs may be closer to a "pure Android" Nexus-type experience (than manufacturer skinned ROMs); you can hardly call them stock in any correct meaning of the word. CM for instance, contains so many tweaks and custom CM apps, calling it "stock" is sort of a joke at this point.
As always, when asking for something on this forum,; its best to be specific.

Any idea if lineage is working on anything for the bolt?

I'm about to attempt to build lineage for the Bolt sometime this week.
I wanted to port over ubuntu touch but since there isn't even a lineage port to begin with, I might as well start one. It doesn't look too hard, it's just sitting the time aside and having patience. Plus school can be a time consumer itself.

Just wanted to post an Update on porting the Bolt:
Uh, where do we begin? Lol. I can't find any source code for the device. Not sure if I need it, I'm thinking I might be able to use the existing kernel since it shipped with 7.x. I mean, I finally got a Environment set up to port it over but I'm not even sure where to go from here. Nobody seems to want to help, either. So, I'll keep poking around until I find something. Will be emailing HTC about the kernel source a little later today.

Cool i can test things

So all went well but it was a big let down because I sort of expected the same sundream experience or better that I had on my m8.
It was pretty close to sense stock, it was snappy but not notably snappier than stock, I'll miss the not bar icons but that's about it.....
the audio also suffered a hit on the head phones and that's what dd it 4 me 3 hours into the rom...
Xept for the usual rom mods I really needed soft nav buttons and status bar internet speeds ...thanks though it ported and worked seamlessy
.please link me to any other roms I can try lineage, aokp, dirty unicorns, I'm up to my head in research I've looked

If it gives you a message about you cannot download on this device switch to a normal browser and ask for the desktop version of the site. Then it will allow you to download with no problems
