Its quite confusing to choose a android pie custom rom. Can you guys please preffer any custom rom. Which is a daily driver. My main prefference is good camera and good sound quality.

My daily driver is:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5t/how-to/codename-phoenix-oneplus-5t-rom-t3733717

since OnePlus still support this phone, and you want a good camera and sound quality, here the best way :
- Original latest OOS ROM
- Rooted with magisk
- Sound : Viper4droid module with a sony convolver
- Camera : OOS camera app and/or Pixel3 google camera apk. Photo edit with snapseed.
- battery : Franco Kernel with FK manager (reduce cpu 25%). Substantrum with swiftblack theme.

Best rom for me
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/development/stable-msm-xtended-t3761012

I recommend Pie https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/development/stable-msm-xtended-t3761012/page1
use it as daily without probs.

You forgot to mention battery life, smoothness and minimal bloat. Or, are these not important for you?
I get 2 days on my ROM, with medium use of everything, and I have added only Naptime to it. It uses a Krieg kernel. I also installed another camera which is fantastic. So... https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/development/rom-aospextended-6-0-t3870988

Rom & Kernel Advice

Hi all,
I bought OnePlus 2 week ago (changed from Honor 6), and since then i using OxygenOS 2.2.1 i really liked the shelf feature, but i can't live without modifications, so i like to unlock bootloader, and flash custom rom and kernel. I searching for LionHeart or Adaptive Governor, and Zen I/O sheduler, i have it one my old LG G2 mini and gave much more battery life. Also it will be great if the rom will have CM Theme Engine.
I ask you good people users of mighty OnePlus 2, can you suggest me something?
i search a lot of threads and i found one kernel with lionheart, but maybe you will suggest me a couple of good rom-kernel combinations.
Thanks a lot
Have a nice day!

Any CM13 based ROM would be your best bet.
IMO, go with Resurrection Remix. They have their official build up and it is one of the best looking ROMs till date.
As for the kernel, I'd recommend Benschhold's custom kernel. It is a great custom kernel providing a lot of options to fine tune your device. Don't expect lots of governors though. OP2 uses octa-core SD 810, which uses the little.BIG architecture. The governors have to be adapted to properly make use of this architecture. That being said, I think ZZmoove or Interactive should be good enough to give you an all-round performance and decent battery life.
Use Kernel Adiutor preinstalled with the custom kernel for best results. (Do not install it, the flashable zip contains Kernel Adiutor)
If you are a music lover, I'd recommend using XTREMEMusic mod or DivineBeats mod.

Hope this helped.
Thanks, Good to know . I'm familiar with kernel adiutor i use it since my second android device, awesome tool, i see the benschhold's Custom kernel have Lionheart Governor is it good with SD810? i used it one 4 core device, on Honor 6 (kirin 920 big.Little architecture) i used interactive on little and ondemand on big. About music: Yes i'm music lover can you tell me if music mods you are showed me are a lot better than viper4Android with good Convolver (my earphones are Sennheiser CX3.00 i know i should have had better ones)?
By now my combo oneplus is PowerAmp and that maxxaudio, but bass is somewhat strange it is too soft...

It was obvious, I mean your avatar is Audio-Technica's logo!:good:
Yeah, both these mods have Viper4Android bundled in their packages. So you'll get v4a and more with both these mods.
I'm not sure about LionHeart though. I use ZZmoove because ZaneZam has been working furiously on it to make it compatible with SD810.
About the music player, try Neutron Music Player. It's the best if you know how to tune a parametric EQ (not as simple as tuning a graphic EQ i.e. the one which we find in most music players.) and can forgive the retro UI design.

Awesome, thanks a lot, i'll install custom rom (RR or CM13) and Benschhold's Kernel when i come back home . One last question: How's temperatures on Benschholds kernel - is it really OC or unlocked frequency?

It is unlocked, although previous versions had stock overclocking and wasn't reporting much heat.
I don't think that heat levels change with a change in kernel:laugh:
Just asking Thanks a lot
Ok, so i tested couple of roms, and i came back to OxygenOS 2.2.1 (RR was too packed with things i would never use, CM was fine but i feel i miss the shelf feature of Oxygen), now i using it with Benschhold kernel for Oxy and yes it is slight lag here and there but phone seems to be more fluid in apps, so there goes my next question: can i flash sound mods on Oxygen or it will give me a bootloop or some kind of sound distortion? Thanks in advance (im asking, cuz i don't have time to test it out because of my work :/)
Edit: I read that maxxaudio or OxygenOS itself creates a incompatibility with any audio mods and also viper4android alone not working, i tried installing latest Viper4Android and it can't install driver (it says i haven't installed Busybox and/or don't have root - but obviously i do). Maybe i should look for other way out the situation

There are two ways that you could go:
1. Try the new OOS 3 beta. It contains many improvements and by default, it will include the shelf feature that you love. You will be able to install the sound mods that you like and won't get any distortion. The downside with this method is that there is no custom kernel for OOS 3. You'll have to run on a stock kernel.
2. Continue with OOS 2.2.1 and revert to the stock kernel. Then flash the Uber custom build version of Boeffla Kernel and install BoefflaConfig app to tune the kernel. The downside with this method is that you won't be able to flash any audio mods. You'll have to stick to apps like Noozxoide EIZO-Rewire Pro for audio tuning.
Thanks a lot! I'll go with 1st method. You were providing a lot of help, Thanks for that too
I didn't think i'll fall in love with shelf feature, before was only one rom - CM - but oxy changed that for me

OOS vs Custom ROM

The OPX is my daily driver (for now) and photography is a HUGE part of my life. Most stable custom ROMs do have more features than the stock, but the camera app functionality and interface will never compare to the stock software. The 2 main features I use are slo-mo and manual mode. So why don't I use OOS 2.x.x? Simple, the community build based on marshmallow has massive performance fixes (especially concerning the GPU and gaming). If the camera isn't a big deal for you than go ahead and flash a custom ROM, this will add more features to your device and the cost of a great camera app. But I definitely suggest upgrading to a marshmallow or nougat based ROM (my personal favourites are CM and PA, they have many features and are pretty stable) due to the poor performance of the GPU on OOS 2.X.X.
let me know you opinions on software concerning the OPX below?
whats the point?
Anyway i find sultans HAL combined with snapdragon interface better.

Ok.. So why not do both. Use a custom ROM and flash oos 3 camera zip. So now you have best ROM and best camera app. That is what I do.

Thanks for your thoughts and feedback? (camera seems a little buggy tho?)
The problem with the camera isn't the app it's self. It's the photo quality. Sultan hal uses higher iso settings to eliminate low fps during photo capturing, thus creating to much noise in the picture. That's why you can't get best of both. Furthermore that in latest OOS cam the video recording fps is normal now on, there is no need for me to change in any custom rom. ( by the time these lines are written of course, because no one knows what are talented and really hard working custom roms developers will bring us in the future)
Ps: of course I have test for long periods purity, sultan cm13, caf RR, and official cm13 in order to have a reference point.

Yes, I agree. But the interface on OOS is much more user friendly in my opinion than any STABLE custom rom out there. Sultan hal is much more complicated for the “simple everyday OnePlus user". The most noticeable downside between the two is trying to record slo mo on any custom ROM. There would be too much zoom, too much noise and it was hard to make it play in slo mo. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.?

Which Custom ROM are you using and why?

Hi All,
Since acquiring MXP back in Oct 2015, I have stayed away from rooting and flashing custom ROM (something which I did from day one on my Samsung Google Nexus) because I was more or less happy with the out of the box behavior.
But now MXP on Marshmellow has become kind of slow and ofcourse Nougat roadmap is still not clear (whether it will at all come in May).
So now I want to join the wagon.
So it would be immensely helpful if you can mention which custom ROM you are using as daily driver and why sticking to it?
My criteria is primarily smooth performance and decent battery (now it doesnt last 12 hours on full charge).
Thanks in advance
Roy
I tried almost every Nougat rom (Tesla, CM, RR, AOSiP, AOSP Extended) and finally been using AOSP Extended. I feel this is the most stable and smooth one out there. I use Greenify & GlassFish script and easily get over 30-40 hours on a single charge. I don't play any games on my phone, just some web browsing, music, whatsapp etc. It has almost all the customization available too.
Just like you I was sticking to stock
Now after the N delay, tested a few custom roms. From my experience, also in gaming, Aosip with Optimus Kernel and GlassfishCP-Optimus script have the best performance, does not overheat and has near stock battery life.
Instead of Greenify (that's behaving weird and sometimes causing wakelocks) I'd recommend Servicely.
Still not tested but also CypherOS should be worth a test run. It seems like the most stable and lighter rom on paper!
all nougat roms have camera bug,,d camera focus is not so good

Thanks all for your replies - sorry for replying late here.
I have seen Moto G4 Plus camera and I am not too happy with its focus.
Is the same camera app used in Nougat roms as well?
I hope and guess the MXP moto camera app would still work - right?
Thanks again!
i am going to change my stock rom, which custom rom should i choose?
Hello all,
I have been using this ROM with Optimis r20 kernel and latest GlassfishCP script since last 4 days.
This is my first custom ROM in MXP, so I must congratulate the devs who have made this usable as daily driver.
Mostly has been running fine with two odd reboots from Recent screen.
-------------------------------------------- Problem below is fixed ------------------------------
One odd observation-FB is unable to get updates, even within app when in mobile data mode. Works perfectly fine with Wifi. Otherwise mobile data works fine and other social apps work fine in mobile data mode. Any guidance if this makes sense, would help.
--------------------------------------------------- Solution by @manddar --------------------------------
This happened to me as well on almost all ROMs, in my case mms internet access point was setup instead of one which is required for internet, www to be exact for Vodafone India.
Try to switch it and you will be good to go. Alternate method is to remove proxy from access point.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My one of the most important criteria was battery life which has not improved till now. I would still reserve my view on that as it's been only 4 days.
Camera focussing has also been same as before in stock MXP using stock Moto camera app(not g4).
Cheers
Roy.
I primarily use RR as my daily driver. Mainly because it has the most features out of all roms. I like having as much customization options as possible. Battery life is pretty good for me, and the rom is stable and performs quite well.
My second choice would be either AOSP Extended or AOSIP. Both have a lot features as well, and they're very smooth and have excellent battery life.
I don't use any mods or custom kernels.

I don't see such an issue. Maybe you have some hardware issue or a scratched lens. What ROMs did you try?
Any one facing issue with quick charge? It stopped working on my phone
AOSCP because:
-Pixel style;
-Same battery life as stock;
-No bugs whatsoever
I'm on aokp rom since early January and it has been my daily driver ever since. No sudden reboot, no app crashes, everything works fine, bluetooth, gps, moto camera, google camera (I use it only for lens blur effect). maybe someday I'll try the aoscp or the aicp roms.

Touchwiz Nougat VS. Lineage OS?

I need your best advise and/or suggestions. I've been a fan of custom ROMs and switching from Touchwiz Nougat (e.g. Nemesis Reborn) to Lineage OS to stock G900F firmware seems to be what I always do (am I the only one who does this?). I am undecided as to which software should I use as my daily driver. These ROMs are great and have their own pros and cons, but I've been annoyed of the fact that I keep switching ROMs which is somehow a waste of time and could even mess up my device in the future.
Touchwiz: The ultimate deciding factor for me is the stock S5 camera app. If you can find similar camera app on the Google Play Store that gives almost the same results let me know.

Footej Camera has a great user interface but the quality of the photo it produces is not that good; noise, grain, blur -- those stuff. Also, it has no real FAST auto-focus. Essentialy, it just focuses continuously, but it does not really detect objects whether they are near or far. If it ever focuses into something, it's not that accurate, it's blurred.
The stock S5 camera app is not perfect, it does not have manual settings, but among all the camera apps for the S5, it is the best. That's why I'm sticking with a Touchwiz-based ROM.

Exactly! ???
Touchwiz. Working smooth
I personally use an AOSP ROM (RR 5.8.2) for my Galaxy S5 (klte). I don't use the camera too often. Plus, the camera quality isn't as bad compared to stock ROM. As for gaming, I don't​ play games anymore on my phone since the top grossing Android games would force you to spend money to progress (usually) which isn't good. I just want my phone to look like how I want and experience smooth Android experience. But your mileage may vary.
Lineage Based:
-Better performance
-Touchwiz lacks the customization options I want
-Touchwiz feels bloated to me even with the debloated Note 7 or A7 firmware
-Latest version of Android
-The features in Touchwiz aren't very practical (I set up the edge panels and then proceeded to never use them, AOD drains the battery)
-Can have better battery life depending on which ROM / Kernel are used
-I have been happy with the quality from Open Camera
-The Lineage stock apps (other than file manager) are awesome

Thanks bro. I've decided to use lineage because of the same reasons.
Open camera has the same functions as stock sansung camera?
Blur background, etc ?
What customization are you using in lineage?
What kernel is good ? I have on stock lineage

No camera has the same features as stock Samsung camera.
Open Camera is the only 1 I have found that (IMO) takes similar quality photos and has good hdr plus many manual settings. It is also very stable.
I have been trying many different kernels lately:
Smartpack lite - was not happy with the battery life even though it is supposed to be a battery oriented kernel
Boeffla venom - have been using yankactive governor for a day and preliminary results are very good. Will be trying impulse and ondemandplus also.

Footej Camera has a great user interface but the quality of the photo it produces is not that good; noise, grain, blur -- those stuff. Also, it has no real FAST auto-focus. Essentialy, it just focuses continuously, but it does not really detect objects whether they are near or far. If it ever focuses into something, it's not that accurate, it's blurred.
The stock S5 camera app is not perfect, it does not have manual settings, but among all the camera apps for the S5, it is the best. That's why I'm sticking with a Touchwiz-based ROM.

fv camera its amazing with almost total control manual mode inluded
TouchWiz is one of the most modified and conceivably heavy Stock Roms of native android between companies, but its interface is very flashy and intuitive, and the system is very sophisticated, giving an impression of exclusivity.
On the other hand, Lineage OS gets closer to pure Android, has a simpler, lightweight and stable interface, greater compatibility with third-party apps and greater flexibility to system modifications.
Note: Samsung's "Camera" app for example is much higher compared to the same "Camera" app available in Lineage OS, after all, the original app was designed for the original rom itself. If you decide to install Lineage OS, you can choose to use the "Cameringo" app available in the "Play Store", it's the best non-native camera app I know, but it's paid.
Recommendation: Keep using the latest official Stock Rom version available for your device. Only install Custom Roms (like Lineage OS) from android versions that are not officially available for your device model.

Possible Cons of Switching to LOS-based ROMs right now?

Hi, I am planning to switch from an OOS based ROM to an LOS based ROM in the next few days. I want to know, if there are still problems with the camera in those ROMs. Like is the quality (notably) worse than on OOS, do these ROMs support the 2x zoom and the Portrait Mode (the real one, not the [admittadly good] one from GCam)? If there are problems, are there ROMs with the original OOS camera and so on where they might not exist? Are there any other real problems?
And in common: are there any great and not-so-well-known LOS-based ROMs for this phone? I am planning on using some ResurrectionRemix version (was very happy with it on my KLTE).
Thanks in advance

First: thanks for the quick answer, but that's not quite what I'm looking for. I had hoped someone with some experience with tue different ROMs could answer this directly. I looked at those threads of course, but it seems the only fitting answer was that this phoenix rom should work.

Now as you already know that the oos camera is only available on cnp, there's no alternative on every other custom rom you need to use the shipped camera or google cam or other 3rd party ones.
Quality is always a very subjective thing...

Codename Phoenix
Aahh ok thx
I'm on LineageOS 15.1 now, and there's more positives than negatives when moving from OOS.
The ROM is smaller, zero bloatware, no spying, increased speed, increased battery life, & best of all a built-in privacy guard with an updated Trust module: https://www.xda-developers.com/lineageos-trust-centralized-interface-security-privacy/
I'm running without any Google junk on here so life is good.
Only downside is, to make the switch you have to back up all your apps via Titanium Backup and wipe everything off the phone completely. The restore the apps and data after you get the new OS on there.
Make sure you flash the latest version of OOS before you begin (assuming you are not already on it) to get the bootloader and modem updated.
Enjoy!
You don't have to wipe your phone after flashing lineage. Just flash bluspark kernel for custom ROMs, it supports encryption.

Camera quality is largely dictated by the hardware, but the OEM LineageOS camera is okay. I don't play with it much, too few features.
If you use something like OpenCamera, Snap Camera or this one: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/themes/mod-oneplus-camera-jpg-quality-to-100-t3714595
...you can get better results. YMMV.
