You may try Resurrection remix OS, its officially available for zenfone max, RAM management is awesome, there is no lag, i am using since last two months. This rom has tons of customization and pixel feel.
The RR OS is best custom rom in the world.:angel:
Custom roms will void your warranty, try at own risk.

Hello, I got my cousin's Redmi 2, so I was hoping to put Custom ROMs. I've been searching around, but didn't seem to find the best stable ROM. I need a daily driver, and it doesn't need to be Marshmallow, but an upgrade from KitKat would be nice. I love the Lollipop UI. But still, I give my preference to the most stable ROM, since I don't want juggle around every single custom ROM available.
Thank You!
UPDATE 21/03.
Thank you guys for the poll! MIUI was getting all RAM sucky so I needed to get a Custom ROM. I've tried Nexus Experience, Resurrection Remix, HTC Remix, and Kuma's CyanogenMod 13.
Nexus Experience: It has same user interface you get from Nexus, but it lacks multitasking capabilities. Besides most of the ROMs in stock looks like this, so I wouldn't recommend this. Link to Download, Credits:Nexus Exp. team
HTC Remix: This ROM is bulky in size, I've waited for 3-4 hrs for it to complete the download, and when I installed, the recovery ended with an error. But from the reviews, it said it has some camera bugs with the stock cam but Snapdragon cam is working. It didn't have the HTC Dialer also. If you switched from an HTC and want the HTC UI, you should take this. Link to Download, Credits:(--light--)
Resurrection Remix: This ROM was good, but compared to CM13, this ROM sucked battery more and at the first boot, the status bar had some lag issues, but after one or two reboots, it was working perfect. Besides that, no problem, this is the second best ROM. Link to Download, Credits:nick37332001
Kumajaya's CM13: This is by far the best ROM I've tried. Battery is the best, considerable less lag while multi-tasking, good gaming performance, and the basic MM UI. I didn't find any bugs at all. If you're looking for the best ROM, this is the one. Link to Download Credits:ketut.kumajaya
I've also found that, newbies to ROM flashing tend to think Official ROMs and Builds are better than Unofficial ones. This is a wrong perception. Kuma's build's are unofficial, but it had a much better performance compared to Nexus Experience. What counts is how much work the devs put into this.
Hope this thread becomes helpful to both users as well as developers. Great work, devs. Hope you keep up the good work.
Hello Venkatesh, Im using 2014818 too. Can you tell me which ROM are you using? Also, even after I flashed Custom recovery, I still see stock recovery, but from there Im able to access TWRP. is this expected behavior? Please tell stable roms for Redmi 2 2014818

I am on stock miui brother. First root your device, install flashify and flash twrp from flashify. You are done.

Blisspop ROM
I have flashed Blisspop ROM, run smoothly until now ( more than 2 days)
Kumajaya's Marshmellow as daily driver. Using since last december, never crash-rebooted and rare bugs. Battery could have been better. And camera, obviously you can't beat MIUI's stock camera but it's all right.
cm 13 by kuma is already stable because basic functionality of redmi 2 is now working been using till now
Thanks guys! I've updated my OP, with reviews.
@rohitaar I'm too on cm 13 its smooth stable,but have you tried aosp caf,if yes how's it? I like idea of pure aosp ROM on which I could use xposed if I want any feature.Please review it if you can
I must add the (at least) here, none of the MM ROMs has a working adb, and some of has GPS issues

Do not believe this guy, I've been using ADB for like every ROM to batch install the APKs which I've backed up from the Stock MIUI.
ADB works perfectly. Also, I love Here Maps more than Google Maps, and it has no problems at all. Brother, if you have any issues with your phone, you should check it with the manufacturers, or at least other users, see if they have any issues.

@rohitsonone No.. I had a look at it, but the UI seemed too Ice-Sandwich type! You see the screenshots! Guess I'm happy with CM13! You can use xposed in CM 13, no problems, although I don't want any tweaks.
I dont think kuma's cm13 ROM has best battery. I mean it is not to hurt him, but the marshmallow changes which forces us to enable gps for wifi functionality is the thief. It sucks battery like hell. But cm13 of kuma had awesome camera and it had no lags at all !! Very clean and smooth UI. As the kernel source has been released for redmi 2 we will have wait for some good battery management tweaks. PS: I am using kuma's cm12.1 as my daily driver and it has no problem at all except camera quality and the battery management(better than cm13 but still . . .)
can anyone help me with the audio bug? {audio playing with speaker and headphones.} the roms i used tends to work normally for 10 reboots. but after some reboots the audio bug kicks in. audio playing with speaker and headphones. hope thats the bug with roms. I have used Ressurection Remix both 5.1 and 6.0.
Hello guys !
I have been a new member of XDA . (**noobie** tho ) . I own a REDMI 2 PRIME . I have flashed many roms and kernels on my device suggested by xda but until now i have not found anything i.e. any ROM that i might stick onto. I always flash a new rom and within 3-4 days seeing the battery consumption i revert back to MIUI ROM . Please suggest me with links to the ROM and kernels that i should try on and can hold on to a particular rom.
Thanks Guys !
Look....devs are tried or trying to make ROM that is suitable for us .So be greatful to them.
I am using cm 13(official) and du by dual boot and I am happy.
BTW ...u can't get everything work perfectly in anything in this world.....
In my experience if you are going for bugless you should go for stock which is pretty good and especially on prime much smoother compared to 1gb variant.
On other hand any custom ROM come with trade off,most stable ROM on r2 is DU but it won't support Jio,then there is Orion by same dev which is minimal and excellent ROM in itself ,if you are new to custom Roms then you should stick to CyanogenMod which offers AOSP looks with its own set of features and is reliable,

Reply 1 :Your review was awesome ! Will surely try this beta rom !
Reply 2 :The phone is awesome and i dont see a chance that i might be changing this phone because of its compact size and its battery life on stock rom . The wierd thing that happens is that i have seen many people say that a particular rom say CM13 official nightly build is the best stable rom for redmi 2 prime but i used it and saw a pretty lag even when the phone booted up for the first time that is no new apps installed for a day and then i would have to revert back to my stock rom !
Hehe that is what going on from all the roms i have tried . I havent tried tesla rom latest build for miui redmi 2 prime which users say is the best rom until now ! So lets see what happens next
:cyclops:

Bro...I didn't feel the issue on cm 13 ..I am using cm 13 and i have 125 apps installed .But i never face any lagg.dl btw some ROM lags on first boot for few seconds after that it goes smooth.
can someone port oxygen os to Moto g4 plus.. it's a excellent rom with some amount of customisation but in Moto g4 plus stock rom.. there no customisation at all.. and oxygen os is a stable rom.. unlike other custom ROMs like resurrection remix... i feel..
i always wanted a stock rom with atleast some customisation options..
thanks :highfive:
Resurrection Remix is stable, as far as stability of ROMs go.
OxygenOS is only a “stock” ROM for the OnePlus range of phones. If released for another device, it will be pretty much no different from other ROMs. As for the customization, it's already available in most ROMs, so there's not really much of an added advantage in porting OxygenOS for any phone.
With that said, of course, if any developer is willing to take it up, it'll arrive. I wanted to clear your idea of a stock ROM. Cheers.
No ! RR ROM is stable but it has lots of problems ! i used it for 2 months then I had major battery drain Issue. RR have customization but I don't like that ROM. so now I am on LineageOS now
Any update on OOS for Moto G4?

Just bought my mi a2. Have to say its buttery smooth but as history says, i never stick to the stock software for more than a week. As there is no objecticely best kernel and/or rom out there, what i want to know is the most popular configuration being used for this phone. What kernel and rom are yall using and how well does it hold up in terms of battery life and performance?
Also how many of you have tried the new pie resurrection remix? Is it worth trying right now?
Havoc stock

Hex kernel + pixel experience
And resurrection remix has a pure stock look that kind of bothers me. I've also heard of some other problems on the ROM thread.
Havoc + Hex
Moving from MIUI to custom rom . Help me to flash best rom so far .
Pixel experience plus based on Android 9 is best rom at present.
In terms of overall speed, stability, and smoothness I'll go with LineageOS Unofficial by AmyluaX. I came from Pixel Experience, which I loved, but that additional speed and smoothness on LineageOS impressed me. Battery didn't impress me on both ROMs, but then again you can flash a kernel and play around with its settings for improvements.
I need battery + customization.
Even i need help.
Which rom other than miui has face unlock too?
Also i need a good battery back up rom.

Here is the thread for syberia , all instructions are there. Make sure you make a backup of internal storage and of Modem and efs partition too (extremely important). If after installing the rom you see a screen that asks for password , you will need to format data.
Also before putting any security on lock screen , first check if your device is encrypted ( in security menu). Otherwise your password/pattern/PIN will be shown as wrong

I've tried a few custom ROMs, and the best I've found so far for my Redmi Note 7, and the one I'm currently using, is the Pixel Experience Plus Android 9.0 for Lavender dated 2019-09-16.
It's fast, clean, and stable, and offers the full Pixel experience with a few extra features thrown in. The 2019-09-16 build is stable. The 2019-09-12 build is not. Here is the link to the stable build, the one I'm using.
https://download.pixelexperience.org/changelog/lavender/PixelExperience_Plus_lavender-9.0-20190916-1340-OFFICIAL.zip/
Lineageos with Gapps is the best custom rom for me but it has not face unlock
