Best rom for i9505?

What is the best rom for i9505 performance with full working all need feature like gps, camera, bluetooth and other?

For Camera stock based is best. Bes custom for me is JDCTeam 7.1.2 LineageOS ROM. Simply the perfect. Well customised, tweaked etc. Great performance and battery life compared to other ROMs. Only drawback is camera quality (like the rest of any Custom ROM)

I installed this rom. Viper sound equalizer not working for me

That's kinda a known issue. It's not ROM related. Please remove Viper or install latest version. Or just simply use Audio FX (standard). Can be selected during Aroma Installer.

Custom Roms: Nougat vs MM

For those who tested both version of custom roms, what u guys liked and did not liked?
i'm new here and i already tested invicta, rr, viper and aex (aex is the best so far). i will test some mm custom roms for now

I believe Nougat ROMs will be better than Marshmallow ROMs.
Just one reason, time gap between release of G4/G4+ and Nougat is nearly 3 months (so development period will be less than 3 months), when actual development of custom ROMs was started, little after Nougat was announced. So developers haven't got enough time for development of MM. There will be device specific bugs.
I have tried OrionOS, it was fine!

I had tried invicta, rr, aosp extended, viper, aex too, then vanadium, telsa, los. I preferred rr for its customization capability and los for stability. Aosp for simplicity but los is there.
All i had tried were nougat based, and i was not liking mm as there were no significant update in there after lollipop (a major one).

Specific to Moto G4+, the device was introduced at a time when Nougat was nearing official release, so custom ROM development for Athene obviously started with MM - the version phones were shipped out with. Within a few months (Nov 2016 ish) Nougat overtook as the preferred Android version for both devs and users, across LOS and AOSP based roms. This was mainly due to Nougat offering considerable improvement over MM, which just as the last post points out, was merely a refinement of Lollipop.
IME, those who stuck with MM were mostly ones who couldn't do without Xposed, or prolly were ones who cautiously waited for an official firmware upgrade by Lenovo.
Based on my own experience, I find RR N to be far superior than RR M, in terms of performance and stability both. The fact that customization options which lie at core of RR didn't change much over the two Android versions should further point to why N is preferable over MM.
Invicta's fate sadly hangs in uncertainty and that is a huge loss given SileshNair consistently worked to get us stock-rom level stability and robustness on super feature rich ROMs.
Unless you're particular about being on the latest Android version, currently the best combination would be RR N whose recent version come shipped with Spectrum to let you choose the gov profile of your choice. Or you can go step further and get flar2's legendary ElementalX to tweak your phone all the way up! Plus with official Xposed N and rapidly updated stable mods , you can have best of all worlds - performance, features, battery life and functionality.
Tho I did switch over to Invicta Oreo a fortnight ago, I can still vouch for RR N + ElementalX + xposed (with greenify, amplify, xposed edge et al) combo to be most rewarding.

havoc os

Is anyone still on this? Feels like one of the best if not the best custom rom atm for one that doesn't get updated. Smooth, stable, battery drains a bit fast with everything stock it might be better after I test with jojoc or schwifty kernel. It has working oreo Dolby unlike los, pie toggles/settings without being an actual buggy pie, and a lot or the most customizations without xposed. Performance feels faster than aex, stock oreo and about the same as los while looking nicer. los could only work with nougat UI Dolby and i know a lot of people like viper though i prefer oreo Dolby. Stock oreo is good and all but feels like not much of a reason for me to stay on it anymore except for slightly faster charging compared to all aosp roms. Havoc has a different look compared to the other oreo roms like how Chinese roms are except with working root and gcam. No slowdowns yet like AEX had but I need to test more first. I hope there isn't that video recording bug later on if I flash schwifty treble. So far so good for me there isn't anything that hasn't not worked how I wanted it to yet. Sad we lost such a great dev
Stock nougat is probably still ok if people want the best performance, battery, charging and some features like daydream that I never used at the cost of what looks to me like an outdated system, Dolby UI and no gcam. LOS might be best for latest security patches. The only problem havoc could have is maybe the headphone jack audio bug since it's old so I'll use Bluetooth for now if that helps. Also at first boot it was a little laggy then got way better somehow I think after a restart. Dolby app only showed with magisk 16.4 and nothing higher. Open for suggestions if people know more roms like this!

I'm using Nfounds pixel experience havok os Oreo and its the best ROM I have tried so far .it doesn't have Dolby but using neutron it sounds very good . battery not bad with average 4 to 5 hours SOT . I've tried treble pie ROMs and will wait a bit before going back to pie , I see no real reason apart from security updates to change ROMs

Thx I'll try it soon I didn't even know nfound had a PE build. Pie was a little buggy for me too unless I was using it wrong. Hopefully all of us can use them later because this phone being treble compatible should make up for the lack of custom roms
Havoc only problem seems to be slight delay when opening apps like other aosp roms. I don't think Chinese rom, stock nougat and oreo have this problem
Edit - tried dotOS and in love with it now. Feels like an updated havoc

im back on HavocOS treble from NFound,its still very good oreo rom for me...and for now.
I use it with b20 modified splash bootstack

I think I liked havoc mostly for Dolby oreo. Dot os has better performance and battery life is similar in both. Everything else about both is about the same too except that dot os is still being maintained every once in a while. I only got Dolby nougat working with dot os so far thanks to a user on telegram. Viper has been a good replacement for me too but if there's ever a working Dolby oreo I'll use that asap because it's what I'm used to

Stock Vs custom

Hi, now I use stock rom and sometime it is a little bit laggy. So i would like to try lineage Os.
What is the best version (from 7.0 to 9.0) in terms of battery and stability?

Now I flashed LOS16. I will inform you about it

how is it going with LOS16? is the software experience more snappy than stock marshmellow?

LOS16 works like a charm. It is very speed (no lag)

Thank you! Is the camera software any good? About battery life?

All is good. LOS16 is amazing
Use opencamera instead of LOS camera

OnePlus Camera (stock) on custom rom

Hi, can I use the stock camera on custom roms like LineageOS and Paranoid Android?
I tried it on Lineage a while ago by backing it up from OxygenOS but it just crashed.

Apparently it's not quite straight forward as just an APK.
Otherwise every ROM would have it installed.
If you're currently on a custom ROM give pro camera x or fv camera a try, they were the best I could find. Eventually I went back to OOS as it's simply superior to GCam, regardless what people say about GCam it just isn't as good and nowhere near as stable
