Most Popular OP2 ROM's - Opinion Based?

So now that we have had FP/LAF working on MM ROM's for a few months now, it seems that the ROM development has slowed down...
So far I've tried the following in this order:
CyanPop by Taker18 - The original best working MM ROM in my opinion, from before FP/LAF was working. This thing was solid and made me begin enjoy my OnePlus 2!
BeanStalk by Taker18 - Ran for for about a month, was great but got bored and wanted to switch it up.
CM13 by Seraph08 - This is what I'm currently running.
I'm kind of bored with the Seraph CM13 ROM and it's time to do full wipe as my battery life isnt as great as it should be.. But I can't decide what to try. I was about to flash TEMASEK'S CM13 yesterday but then hesitated when I saw that they were retiring Temasek after CM13...
How are the OOS based ROM's? I was never a fan of OOS as CM13 is where I'm comfortable but I'm looking to spice it up for a bit.. I'd almost be willing to even give MIUI a go but don't really want to fall back to a 5.1.1 based rom with no FP/LAF...
What are people using these days? and what are the opinions on the current state of OP2 development? I get a sense that it has somewhat stalled most likely related to the delays in the OOS 3.0 OTA..

Use Exodus.
In my opinion the best rom so far.

I would say that your list there was pretty close once upon a time, but I really don't think it is accurate anymore. In my opinion, I would say that the most popular ROM for the OPT would be Seraph08's CM13. Everyone likes stock CM. Then I would say Resurrection Remix, and then Beanstalk and Exodus for a tie at third. I would suggest you try Exodus if you don't want many bloat features. I got over having tons of features. I used to only use Resurrection Remix, but then I decided to try some other ROMs. So far, my favorites have been Exodus (http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-2/orig-development/rom-exodus-android-6-oneplus2-t3333929), Purity (https://plus.google.com/communities...5/stream/8da711ee-6e10-450e-94db-b0ad895d3234), and Validus (https://plus.google.com/communities...8/stream/d0341921-196f-4f6c-8c61-10e6a0c36eb6). The best ROM to keep an eye on in my opinion would be halogenOS (http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-2/orig-development/rom-halogenos-oneplus-2-t3377799). Happy flashing!

[SM-G900F] Resurrection Remix or LineageOS 14.1?

I want to flash a custom rom to my Galaxy S5 900F, but I am not sure what the differences are between RR and LineageOS, and which one is "better".
Thanks in advance!

RR is based on LineageOS and RR has TONS of other features that LineageOS does not have. You even have lots of customisation options when you choose RR.
In my experience, RR is better and I'd personally recommend RR.

In terms of features, RR is definitely bigger and better. Although, in my opinion, that makes it way too complicated. The whole setup of RR is very much unintuitive and most of the extra features involved are just that; extra features. I would consider myself an advanced user having been in android for 5 years, but I barely used anything for the week or so I had RR on my phone. Also, with all tiny bits of customization the menus are very crowded. I mean, some of us don't have a whole afternoon to figure out every customization! And root access, do we really need that in nougat? Not to mention SeLinux. What do you so desperately need that you have to disable that?? LOS on the other hand is smaller, but much simpler. Heck, I'd even go so far as to say that everything just works, and whatever you can customize is easier to access! Also, things like Android Pay work if you flashed the su removal tool to get rid of root. The battery life also is great, and I only need to charge in the evening. I also shouldn't forget that the mantainers for LOS are much more reliable than RR and if you use haggertk's recovery, the OTA update goes seamlessly, like an OEM rom.
Bottom line if you want all the bells and whistles possible, RR is for you. If you want a clean ROM that does everything you need to smoothly, LOS.
Or heck, try 'em both out and see what you like!

i havent made the jump to nougat on RR yet, but its predecessor is pretty much amazing! So much so, that ive been reluctant to switch as of yet. I thought that the nougat RR was released before the CM project died and didnt think that it had switched over to the lineage base.

Resur is better

Which rom are you using and why?

Hi guys,
Thanks very simple I just wanna know what do you think about roms.
My data:
Rom: Stock 6.0.1
Why?: Because I think it's the best in terms of performance

LineageOS. I like it because of its stability and fast updates. It's very close to stock with no unnecessary add-ons.

Latest stock because battery life, smoothness and picture quality.

I just got a used G4 XT1625. I'm staying with stock Nougat until Lineage 15.0 is stable. It works fine for my needs. I used LOS 14.1 on my G3 and that was fine too.

InvictaOS is best in my opinion.
Currently on : 7.1.2 but, soon to be Oreo, may be in a day or two.
Stable, one of the best performing, eduqate amount of features, and fast updates!!

Its all about the personal Choice! 1st of all understand what do you need! Stock or Custom!
The best custom ROM, out of the ROMs which I have tried is Invicta... The beta version of O is out already so you can try that, and it is being updated every week (Almost! Great Dev we have!)
If you want stock, you should use 7.0 with Vegito kernel! It is very stable and gives you good battery backup! Now nothing can match stock, but it does miss out on features so once u have Vegito, u can root via magisk (its my personal choice) or any other, and then install Xposed which is now out Officially and works perfectly with stock. Adds a lot of features and good thing? You can always take stock OTAs as they come along! (you can even try systemless Xposed, I am not sure it will work or not, but it is available)
So its your choice! I have tried both of them and works perfectly! I stay on custom ROM since, it gives me one of the most imp feature that is notification LED, And more ! So, its your personal choice!
Hope this helps!

Same here Stock 6.0.1 with xposed and supersu

InvictaOS because @Silesh.Nair is an awesome developer and I really trust his judgment on what he finds best to put in a rom. And it's stable with features of my liking.

Anyone know which is better for the moto g4 the pixel experience or resurrection remix thanks

It's really more of a personal choice. Try them both out and see which one you like more.
I'm on AICP 64-bit.

Ty ragarianok I'm looking for something to use as a daily driver and I've heard mixed reviews on 64 bit saying its not as good as 32 on our device

Pixel experience has almost no customization options while resurection remix has hundreds(compared). That's the first question you should ask yourself: do I want less or more?

Best custom rom?

Hi.
what is best stable and simple custom rom for nexus 6p?

There's no best and all are stable. For fans of Pure Nexus ABC ROM seems to be the go to for Oreo. Simplicity SuperXe custom build straight from source. I prefer the modified stock SuperXe personally. Some honorable mentions Nitrogen, AquariOS, CrDroid.

I haven't tried it in some time because I just returned to my mostly trusty 6p after several months on an ill-fated adventure with a dud Xperia XZ Premium. However, Dirty Unicorns is still in development and was always one of the better ones IMHO. Particularly if you don't want to flash Viper, DU has OK sound enhancement over stock.
But, yeah, 'best' is basically the ROM you like the most for your purposes.

Almost some custom roms has very options to customize but i need simple official rom with only a few option.like official stock but improved for battery usage and performance

I'm on the latest Lineage 15 and it seems pretty solid. Has a bunch of features that should come with stock ROM but does not.

I tried Carbon ROM but had problems with lag and slowness and now I'm running ABC rom, much better and really fluid plus some nice additions . Recommended

Dirty Unicorns

J5 2016 ROM recommendations (8.1)

Hello, I own a Moto G4 Plus that I have tested various ROMs on and have had experiences with flashing ROMs on Samsung devices, so a friend of mine asked if I could help him out too. So how stable are the Oreo ROMs? Would there be one that could be called the "best" one? Would it be worth for him to switch to a custom ROM or should he stay on the stock one?

Oreo ROMs are very good the best for me are LineageOS and Resurrection Remix OS

Just my personal experience but...I´m yet to see a Custom Rom for J5 2016 that matches Stock Rom. Used all of them from Lineage to Dot OS and although they are pretty stable, performance is a bit hit and miss. Sometimes the phone works like a rocket and sometimes you nedd to reboot it to make it usable again. I have kids and take a lot of photos, so the shutter lag in custom roms is a great con, for me.
This may vary from user to user, which GApps you use, which apps you use, so I would give it a try anyway. From the ones I used, Lineage is by far the best.
