To be honest, best rom overall is samsungs stock rom 6.0.1. All the features (gps, nfc.....) work, you get good battery life, much more stable than any other rom, and even better performance than any cm. Also all the icons in status bar in cm looks retarded and its hard to understand what they do as there is no text below them, you also get a good camera app that no aosp android has. So yes, overall samsungs rom is the best, iam very dissapointed in the whole cm and aosp roms, they try to bring something else, but they fail miserably to bring any improvements, as there is too many bugs that get in the way.

For best overall ROM, stock 6.0.1 is what you want. Performance and battery life is best on stock.
As for custom ROM, my favourite is Resurrection Remix v5.7.4. Battery life is great (not as good as stock) and has all of the customisation features that I like. CM13 is also good and I find it the most stable custom ROM from my usage. Gaming performance however is a hit and miss on AOSP ROMs.

So i am not the only one that has seen even 2d gaming is very bad on CM.

AOSP? Resurrection Remix. Theyve been rockin as of late. TW? MOAR 7.0. Other than the fact that its a bit old and isnt supported by the devs anymore, its a killer TW ROM.

Which ROM do you like most?

I don't see any comparison in this subforum.
Perhaps we can compare and discuss different ROMs
Which do you like and why?
I only really test CyanogenMod 13 and Lineage OS.

Can I add something ---
Which ROM is best for GAMING?

Ah ah I just had the same question. I wondered why there were so many flavors of Lineage Os, and what were the difference. For the moment I have tested only stock (Alxndr's rom) and Lineage 14.1 Official.
- Lineage OS offical is great. The fingerprint recognition is lightning fast, and the rom is globally fast. There are lots of customization and options.
- Stock has however a better battery life, Ultra Power Saving Mode, camera and dialer.
I don't do gaming. However, I can tell the performance in antutu is equivalent (+/- 53.000). Stock had a better 3d score (11.000, vs 8.000 for LOS) and should do better for gaming.
My dream would be a Lineage OS with ported touchwiz framework for edge, camera, sms and dialer. Or a S7 nougat rom with ported LoS fingerprint.

I am running Vaniraosp these days.

And why

I am using LOS at the moment and it blazing quick the only thing is that my phone heats heat up!!

Resurection remix for customisation. Fast and very good battery life base on AOSP.

AOKP seems to have everything working that i have come across and gets nightly updates i like Cr Droid but was still getting rotation issue Kltedv hopefully that will be sorted in the next update

Official linage

Tried LOS, Resurrection Remix and crdroid. LOS is good but seems so vanilla in front of RR and crdroid.
I like features. Resurrection Remix has the most features. crdroid is similar but slightly less features, but excellent battery life of all.
I switched back to RR from crdroid in the hopes of getting battery life improvement with boeffla kernel, forcedoze, hebf optimizer, but not seeing it so far. May go back to crdroid.

@freefourlife
Battery life with crDroid so much better? Any disadvantages?

No. Minor additional features in RR. Planning to switch back, as I couldnt get similar battery efficiencies even with custom boeffla kernel

I feel safer and more stable with official lineage OS, but this is only illusion in my head.

You are in for a treat for v 2.1 when it will be released. They are improving it a lot in terms of performance and battery life.

based on stock mm, great bat life, nice mods on stock SUPERLite MiNi MM *361mb*

i tested AICP, LOS and CrDroid i want to test AOKP, the most developed was AICP, but the battery life and the ram usage was the worst, but it was the better choice, all the things worked, but i prefer LOS, Crdroid it has a lot of bugs in 2.0, i don't tested the 2.1 but a few users said that the sim card is not detected so i will wait, it has the best battery life compared with the other roms but a lot of things aren't working so it's not the best thing and LOS is vanilla but with little customizations, so it's really cool, the dev's can improve the battery life but, i think that if you use LOS is ok for daily use.

I really like LINEAGE OS official. But I use custom TW roms just because I prefer TW camera . So I hope to use LINEAGE OS with ported TW framework for stock or N7 camera .

Never tested AICP, but there are daily updates I see.
crDroid has different problems I recognized that, too. And few updates.
I only have a very small test with AOKP, everything seems working.
At the moment using LineAge OS with (nearly) no bugs. Battery life is OK, but not perfect. Performance seems good, no problem at the moment.
But I'm always interested in other ROMs or interesting features etc.

Resurrection Remix vs Invictus?

I am running Silesh's Invictus (formerly Lineage OMS), wondering what the main differences are between it and Resurrection Remix?
I've checked the OP and looks like RR has a few additional features?

Here's a few I can think of, anyone else can feel free to add/correct.
RR - developed by the RR team (hence the official title) - any feature requests generally have to go to the RR dev team rather than Silesh.
Invicta - as an unofficial ROM, Silesh is the go-to person for features (though if you can find a commit for your feature request, that helps a lot!) This also does mean that Silesh is free to tweak Invicta for performance and battery savings as and when.
RR - boatload of customisation (from Interface to Buttons to Gestures, for example), too many for me to list off the top of my head. I found a lot of them I didn't use, though your experience may vary.
Invicta - more reduced set of customisations, but in my opinion are the very useful ones. Also has the option to permit your fingerprint sensor to turn off the screen and lock (though someone might wish to correct me on this if there is a way in RR!)
Battery wise, I appear to have better life with Invicta than RR though I'm not able to provide a scientific comparison by any stretch. Performance wise, I also found Invicta to edge RR out, though both ROMs were smooth and stable in my experience.
You could back up your Invicta installation and flash RR to try it, then either keep RR if you like it or restore your Invicta ROM

Thanks for the detailed answer!

Looking for Rom like PureNexus, fast, clean and smooth

Hi, i've counted about 30 roms in the roms section... I'm looking (like the title) for a rom like purenexus on nexus but for oneplus 5... For who don't know what i'm talking about, it's not full of customization and it's very fast... Suggestion?

The stock ROM?
It offers a slight bit of customizations, but not too much. And it seems pretty fast to me.
Your only other option may be Slim. They don't have many features and pretty much no bloat.
When I say they don't have too many features I mean in comparison to ROMs such as Resurrection Remix which is loaded.

Dirty Unicorns is on par with PN in terms of stability, performance and features. Sadly is not on XDA but you can grab it from devsbase or their G+ community page.

Omnirom with pixel launcher

thank you all... i really love how fast the freedom os is and no other rom is so fast but i really miss substratum for themes... i've tried the resurrection remix is amazing but too much options for me and it's not fast like oxygen/freedom.... i tried also DU and PA but they're too laggy and too slow for me... I will try Slim7 and OminRom, thank you

Which Custom ROM on Axon7 do You prefer and why?

Simple Question. Got Nuclearom on my phone and am quite happy with it. But I am thinking of switching to DarkRom, Candy or AOSPX. What were you experiences, which performed best etc?

For the g model dark ROM does a good job with the Los thread modem, no call bug, viper works and the delta updates are a great feature too. Battery life is good too.
No lags !!!

Nuclea. all of the others had performance problems not even fixable with a custom kernel. Some (Lineage, RR) had terrible GPU handling when I used them, but that was like 5 or 6 months ago, so maybe they ironed that out. Thing is, radioactive kernel has a very nicely tweaked governor (when it doesn't break your touchscreen, that is )
I'd say you should backup your current install on an SD card if you want to try something else, because you might as well want to go back. Most other custom ROMs are carbon copies of each other for some reason. For instance, RR looks like AICP, Nuclea like those but with less tweaks... and the difference is mostly the maintainer and the name (usually even the 'goal' of the ROM is the same, to "provide with the best tweakability and functionality while keeping performance best" or something on the lines).

Feel you man, Tried Carbon and RR before Nuclea and got disappointed, very slow and buggy in comparison. But DarkPixel looks promising and people are reporting good speeds and more/better features.
Is someone around here who tested DarkPixel with Radioactive Kernel? Or did some other kernel perform better? Or might it even be the best to stick with the Kernel of the ROM? So many options, so few differences :/

Nice to hear that, might try it out. Any Costum Kernel Attempts or nah?

No, not necessary, the kernel that comes with rom does perform absolutely fine in my eyes. Only modded a bit with kernel auditor, read ahead, no big changes. Viper aroma 2.94 and lawnchair as launcher, just using the black ui, no substratum. The rom is smooth, lagfree and not overloaded with features. For smooth browsing I use the chromium swe
here from xda. Magisk 14 with unified hosts just work fine.
No saftey pass issue.
This are all personal choices of course, but it gives me a good performance.

Overall I find there's very little differences between all the lineage based roms. I use aokp with llama kernel but I may switch again if I can bothered. I use war mod too.

Used all of those ROMs for some time and finally settled with DarkRom. It is stable, fast, got its own color engine, so I replaced substratum with daily issues and never ending updates. Delta updates is another plus. I "customized" it by adding viper4android, Omniswitch and Phonograph music player and that's it. I play with the kernel, but return to the built in one, which is unbeatable smooth.
