How stable are the Oreo Roms? - Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers

I am on stock Nougat 7.0 February security patch. I am wondering, Will the Oreo ROMs 64 or 32 bit will improve the performance and battery life?
Stock Nougst ROM has been better and more stable than all Nougat custom ROMs. I am wondering if stock is still the better option or if Oreo custom ROMs will bring a better performance? Anyone who's gone from stock Nougat to Oreo let me know your experience, thank you.

In terms of battery backup, performance and especially stability you won't find any better than stock firmware. As long as there are security updates for stock, I see no reason to switch. This is of course only my personal opinion.

I read that question, but since January there has been many improvements and updates to the Oreo custom ROMs. Many bugs have been fixed and I didn't know if it had become close to stable as stock.

Change Rom

Hi, I want to change my ROM and to ask some infos.
1) At the moment, what is the best stable ROM? I'm interested in longevity and possibly stock user experience (I will personalize it, after).
2) LOS based ROMs has some known issues? I cannot find anything specific about it. I'm talking about battery drain, FP not working and similar.
3) How much decrease photos quality?
4) Is it easy, if so, to go back to MIUI ROM?
Thanks in advice.
LOS is the most stable in my opinion and experience.
You can reveres to MIUI, by flashing ROM from xiaomi.eu .
Validus is the best one,best battery life,good customization and best performance
For both ROM, I can update with OTA or I need to flash manually updates?

No OTAs since none of them is official

Which Oreo Rom?

My Question is, which Oreo Rom is most stable and good for daily use + good/better Performance.
I saw many Threads with Roms and there are some bad bugs there and after reading some answers from other Users, the RENOVATE ICE OREO Rom and the Oreo Beta 2 Port from Alex393.
So which one from this two is the best?
In usage, Performance, Tweaks and Functions?

Marshmallow Build

Hi guys,
Can you please suggest a Marshmallow ROM that I can flash to my phone? I am currently using the Superman ROM v2.8.0 and I have flashed several Nougat ROMs. I am very unsatisfied with the battery life of Nougat ROMs.
Battery life is more important to me and stability of the ROM.
Thank you very much guys!!
Superman 2.7 or 2.6 have much better battery life. I use 2.7 cos it's got bluebourne fix. They are still nougat though. Just letting you know because I'm pretty happy with my battery life on nougat.
There are old versions of superman ROM on marshmallow. Haven't tried them, but they should be pretty good if tkkg1994 made them. Apparently marshmallow has better battery for this phone.
Let us know how you go.
Feel free to ask if any questions or further help required.
Good luck

I want to try to downgrade from Superman ROM Nougat to Superman ROM Marshmallow. Do I have to downgrade to the Official Marshmallow Firmware first then flash the Superman ROM Marshmallow?
Thank you very much for your feedback and idea.
Not sure if the old ones have boot loader and modem included like the new ones do. In theory, if they do have boot loader and modern included then you don't need to.
It would probably safer to flash official firmware first though. I'd just choose the most recent marshmallow for your model. Make sure you look at the change logs and bugs for the marshmallow version of superman you decide.
Let me know if any more questions

Downgrading from Superman ROM Nougat to the Official Marshmallow Firmware is safe right?
Thank you very much!

Yes, it's safe. Just select in AROMA to update bootloader and modem to MM

Just have a look at the discussion section, where you find an rom index thread(amazing) and also this discussion covers your question https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/discussion-stable-oreo-rom-t3792049
If it's better for you, only you can test and decide based on those suggestions/discussion. Stock is stable, Oreo roms have more features and are more up to date :good:

Moto G4 (2016) custom ROM

Good day,
recently I learned that Motorola/Lenovo stopped to deliver security updates for my Motog G4 (without plus) 2016 phone. Since I dont want to throw away a smartphone which is just two and a half years old, the only option seems to be a custom ROM.
Does anyone know a stable, supported, trouble-free, and easy to install custom rom for this phone? I dont mind the android version, I just want to receive the security patches. LineageOS, the only custom ROM I used in the past for other phones, does not support this device any more (it was called "athene" there).
Thanks for any help,
Gregor
The forum for Moto G4 Plus seems to have more options for custom roms (you can use g4 plus roms on a g4, they are both athene).
I am now using OMNI rom (android pie). https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/development/rom-omnirom-moto-g4-plus-t3874452
It is stable, has a similar battery drain as Lineage OS.

Thanks for the reply, I will try OMNI. Is the battery life better or even worse compared to the original firmware? Whats the security patch level on your phone?

The security patch is 5th January 2019.
As for battery life compared to the stock rom I don't know the exact figures sorry (it's been a while since I had stock rom on the phone).
