Hello guys.
Can any one tell me, who used long enough both stock rom and paranoid rom, simple comparison ? Im all into speed, battery life. Im not into hybrid ui (phablet, tablet and rest...)..
Is it worth flashing the PA ?
Thanks in advance
In terms of speed and battery life they're pretty much equal. The real beauty of PA is the features and how it makes using the phone much nicer (not to mention the calibrated screen).
Battery life is about the same, speed is a bit higher (as if the phone wasn't fast enough before) with bionic krait optimizations. Battery and speed have much more to do with the kernel as well as the rom so you might want to look into that. People just want to flash the best rom or best kernel but its down to personal preference meaning there isnt such a thing.

If you aren't into the hybrid settings then why flash pa? Might as well just flash cm or aokp rom instead. You will get plenty of features that way.

You can always flash a kernel on stock and get most of the speed optimization.

PA over Stock..
-Per App Customization at it's best.
-Per app colors for Navbar and Status bar is great.
-Per App full screen mode especially useful for games.
I could not find any difference in battery life and you always have option to change your kernel
I like the battery life that you get on stock, but the lack of features is what keeps me from running it. I don't like the standard toggles, no fast charge option and gamma control.

I think flashing all the roms available for the N4 is worth it.
You can always install PA rom and run as it is. You don't have to use the hybrid mode and other customizations. It's optional.
I received my N4 back in December, ran stock for about a month and it was nice but featureless. I then flashed PA and did not like the UI, couldn't get used to it. So I was using BakedBean and loved the ROM, mainly because it is all blacked out. Speed and battery life were great on that ROM. Then about a month ago I flashed PA again and noticed how vibrant everything looked, then flashed their contrasty kernel and was amazed yet again by the colors. I learned more about PA and have been a loyal follower since the beginning of March. I first I just used it as is and then started using PIE and I will never go back to any other ROM, unless I am bored and just want to flash something but that usually lasts for less than 6 hours before I restore my PA nandroid. I am getting about 14 to 17 hours on battery and 2 to 3.5 hours of screen on time, which is perfect for me. As someone mentioned in a post above mine it really is up to you to decide what is best for you. Flashing ROM's is so easy that you can flash a few different ROM's and test them yourself.
Good luck :thumbup:
Thank you all for you answers. When i asked about this rom i was automatically thinking of flashing franco or other custom kernel.. I think ill give it a try with PA...
I hope that PA doesn't have any bugs ?

PA is actually a pretty solid rom. Shouldn't encounter any major bugs.

Exciting times are ahead of us, the big Rom developers are already making a Rom and new Roms are coming by daily basis it seems.
In this topic we can talk about what Rom we are currently using and what our thoughts are about it.
I'm still using stock oppo Rom, I had a few problems with flashing a new Rom so I gave up.
I will try again in the future, but I'm not sure what Rom I should install.

The cm10 nightlies!
It works perfectly for me, only issue i have is battery life.... I think its even worse than with stock fw....
But considering how far the developers have come in such a short time one can't complain really
I 'm way happier than with my previous s3!

Just installed PAC-man ROM, and must say i'm very happy with it, fast, nice features and they are updating regularly.
PA all the way! So far I've had zero issues (besides the nonfunctional camera) with the alpha build. In fact, I've been averaging up to an hour more screen on time. Its pretty awesome!

been running CM10.1 for the past couple days.. no problems but no camera.
kinda hope they update so you can adjust the drawer layout. i hate the 4x4 grid pattern
im running stock rooted waiting for cm 10.1 to fix the camera and the battery life. i have aokp on my galaxy s3 so im kind of an anti-stock user.
:victory: happy with Pac Rom , super smooth and camera all working now ( HDR , Recorder , front camera) . I recommend this because It drains less battery than stock . Best rom until FireFly Project done.
CM Nightles. The only rom that has the camera working. My battery life increased considerably. I'm at 12 hours at 10% with screen on for a little over 3 hours. Looked at the battery half way through the day and found a widget NOM NOM NOM on my battery so uninstalled it at 50% so the battery life is even better.
Stock rom has an issue that I can't live with. Submitting a bug report/feature change on OPPO forums to resolve this. On OEM rom and the phone on Tmo, the radio drops DCH/HSPA+42 quickly versus giving it a little timeout period before scaling out. This coupled with semi aggressive power management keep apps like Spotify from streaming consistently without the screen awake and some additional source of data to keep the phone fully ramped up. It does not exhibit this under CM. Love the phone actually enjoyed the OEM software but I use a lot of my battery life for music consumption. Oppo will get it resolved though. TONS of faith in them based on feedback taken and given.

Can anyone confirm if Easy Cover is working as it should on custom roms (tried on cm nightlies and it just wakes the phone but dont lock it)
I just loaded ReVolt last evening and it's quite nice. No major issues thus far either. I am a big fan of CM, and find that this has all the options I miss from a fledgling ROM like Oppo's. In time they'll get there.
PAC Rom nightlys. Woking great so far
Latest firefly "ïnternational" beta
I would call it more like an alpha since is 25% or more chinese, stable enough(few freezes), damn pretty but that's all good things about it.
Oppo still didn't fixed the main bugs on this phone like camera autofocus, poor performance in low light and image stabilization, plus the main functions of the phone that shouldn't be bad from start.
CM nightly only.
CM10.1/Oppo Find 5
I am still on the older stock rom, since the last and final update seems
to deal more damage than good.
Still fighting with myself if I should upgrade to Color ROM. Can you guys
recommend it? I am not interested in the newest features, but an
increase of stability would be very welcomed.

Screw'd Android does have a nougat based rom (7.0), check out their Google + page. It runs awesome!!
I am surprised that u guys haven't used uberstock..
It's the fastest a rom on Android can be.. Super smooth and fast
Nitrogen OS has been my bread and butter for a couple months now.
One of my favorite Roms has to be Android Ice Cold Project.
It has so many features that you can mess around with to customize the experience the way you want it.
Probably the only downside to this Rom is that it drains battery much faster than Roms with less features, so if you want features but don't mind losing battery life, then this Rom is for you.
Another Rom I can recommend is jgcaap's custom CM13 builds.
It has a little more features than stock CyanogenMod 13 has but it saves a ton more battery life than AICP.
I've been using this Rom for quite a while now and I've had no problems with it so far.
Hope I've assisted you in some way
Have a great day!

Have anyone noticed any improvement in a particular custom rom (LOS/RR) in battery life compared to stock N?

Battery life looked better than stock in most ROMs, but the biggest gripe from my side is the sound/volume. For example, Invicta ROM has everything you would expect from a custom ROM (according to me, its the only ROM you could have for the moto g4 plus), but I immediately came out of it as the in-call volume and speaker volume are way too low - which are the BASICS for a phone. After this, I tried out several ROMs and all appear to have the same issue. Stock is the way to go buddy, because at the end of the day, you can live without all those features, but without hearing the other person on a call or unable to hear a sound playing out of your phone will totally turn you off.
Hope this helps.

I have been using LOS on my moto g4 plus since it was officially released (7.1.1 now 7.1.2) and I have seen how the devs take leaps and bounds when making a custom rom stable. In the beginning, LOS was far more stable than any other rom and that's why I used it however it still had significant battery drain. Today LOS is very stable on 7.1.2 and the battery life is pretty much the same a stock rom, however with more power saving features. I am now using resurrection remix official (7.1.2) for the moto g4 plus because, due to it being based off LOS, the battery life is around the same as LOS however it has many more features which is why I use it. If you are looking for stability and good battery life, look no further than the stock rom (at least until the custom roms are stable) because on the custom roms there are still many bugs that need to be fixed and sometimes random battery drain. If you want customizability and the bleeding edge versions of Android, go for a custom rom. I suggest resurrection remix because it is a great mix of stability and customizability, however, most custom roms will be fine (just make sure to look at the reviews and make a backup)
Hope this helped

Battery life is almost the same when compairing the stock rom to the LOS(on Stock kernel). But I must suggest you using the Elemental x kernel with the Lightning Blade tunables. The Kernel tunables give you a noticable amount of battery life increase.
LOS is the most Stable and battery efficient rom available for the Moto g4 plus.
One thing that I noticed on the LOS is that the battery percentage drops very quickly while playing games.

Same happens with the stock ROM too. It's basically due to overheating,

I heard that marshmallow used to give great battery, is it true or just nostalgia? I believe that their shouldn't be any reason why marshmallow would surpass nougat ROM on battery performance. Any clue?

Yes but you'll lose out on other Nougat features and security protection.
Stock Rom has better battery life since the March security update. I was on LOS Invicta, because I wanted to be on the latest Android OS and security updates. But I just got tired of the many bugs, reboots, and updating to the newest release to fix other previous bugs. Stock is now improved and I do miss the Invicta customization, but I like how everything works right on Stock.
On stock the camera works better, for some reason it charges faster, and everything works perfect on Stock. Also Moto has been releasing the security updates faster than any other manufacturer. So for now I am going to be sticking to Stock.

Oreo roms are still in alpha builds, If you want to try oreo you can flash babyfish or frosbiten anyway, but I suggest you to install a nougat one because of battery and stability
Sadly, custom ROMs (LOS and RR) on Moto G4 Plus are really bad in terms of battery and stability. I only tried those two and I had bad experiences with them to the point that the inestability and power consumtion beated the other good things such as customizations and all that great custom ROM's stuff that stop being important when your phone starts rebooting, heating, and cant handle one day without charging constantly. But you should try them, maybe you wont experience those things. What I can say is from my experience with those ROMs.
However, I have LOS on my Moto G2 and it works like a charm on it.

LOS in G2 is amazing, thanks to Luk. Man he's a legend
I am an old time rooter. G1, Vibrant, G2 (what a pain in the ass that was), Nexus 4, OnePlus One. I have rooted them all. My most recent phone the LG G4 I never bothered rooting, I grew tired of fighting with HBO Now, Android pay compatibility.
At this point, I just want battery life and stability in my phone, but I have read here and there that the stock ROM is not all that stable... and LeEco is not on top of the OTA system server so even updating to the "current" version might not happen.
Anyway, I an using my Nexus 4 while I wait for delivery and tried out LinageOS. To my shock it supports Android pay, So I am more inclined to consider flashing ROM's again.
Again Stability and battery-life are my concern. What are people's thoughts on this?
So since I have had about 48 hours with this phone. I think I can safely say stock is fine. Zero crashes, zero lag, great battery life.
I will be just staying with stock for now, but it is nice to know we have an active XDA community I can fall back on if the stock OS pisses me off.
I had stock over 5 months, there are no random crashes.
I'd recommend a modified stock like Turbo's. Removes alot bloat and battery life is great. I'm running his 23mini rom. It's been fantastic.
What is your current version? I was 18s, then manually updates=d to 19s. now trying to get to 20, 21...
I am not getting the auto updates because the ota servers are dead
Using Lineage 14.1 then switch back to stock. Stock has best battery life imo
