I was thinking of switching to a custom rom (Mainly RR or POSP), but I don't know if I should install a custom rom on 6T.
Any thoughts?

Stock or Stock Beta with EdXposed and some Magisk modules.
Let's you do almost anything you can with a custom ROM.
Until recently custom ROMs didn't support the FP scanner.

I tried EdXposed and it is unstable AF and magisk modules just fix some annoyances.
If you are on Verizon, as of now 4-23-19, no custom ROM appears to support MMS. Except for Havoc, and even then, crappy picture quality has been reported.
So I'm going to go back to oos9013. Which is a major pain in the butt because I have to format my internal SD and use a USB drive to revert to the March security patch...

Interesting.
I'm using TWRP 3.3.0, Beta 8, Magisk 19, ElementalX 3.15, Riu Core and Riu EdXposed 0.3.1.2 and my phone is very stable.
I'm also using Nova Prime as my launcher.
I get 0 force closes. No random reboots.
Currently my phone has been up for 2 days and 10 hours.
My phone only reboots only when I manually reboot.

Used the exact same setup and it was stable (however it was like 2 moths ago)
I was (and still probably am) a ROM flashaholic, but for the first time I've been very happy with stock OOS.
I may install a custom ROM in the future (probably Omni or Havoc) but users always seem to report some bug, whether it's big or small.
I haven't had any issues on OOS so I could very well end up sticking with it. Only downside is having to reboot to see Substratum overlays, but no where near a deal breaker.

Nope! And this is coming from a retired ROM Dev. I would keep stock and root it. If I were to make a no nonsense ROM it would be pretty identical to the stock ROM.
And this is not a dis to any ROM Dev either.

Who uses MMS? That's so 2010 ?
No for real, is that still being used? I live in the Netherlands. Nobody uses that anymore since there are much better apps for that nowadays....
I'd rather keep the OEM developers of the phone updating my stable stock firmware well over some stranger online that does it as a hobby.
Pros and cons of custom rom on 6T
Pros:
- Slight interface change (OOS is very similar to AOSP)
- AOD
- Volume rocker music controls
- UI customization
Cons:
- Jagged rounded corners. OOS has a slight border that's smooths the corners/notch. Every custom rom does not have this and will leave you with choppy corners on the screen.
- FP reader isn't as good. It just hit custom roms and is buggy
- AOSP gestures are 100x worse than OOS
- Only a couple of stable roms. If you want a feature packed rom it will be unstable. If you want a stable rom it will only have 1 feature. There really isn't an in between rom.
I would stay on OOS. Custom roms are slowly dying as stock systems have implemented all the old great custom rom features. You're basically adding a few things to your phone while sacrificing stability honestly.

I don't recommend either.
I was on stable ROM and decided to go to Beta based on what I've heard about stability.
I've found my current combination very stable. I've been up 4 days with no unexpected reboots.

Agreed with what he said. I'm perfectly content not changing ROMs.
Everything "works" on OOS.
Battery life is stout.
Volume Rocker can control music both with and without root (easier with) with simple app (Button Mapper). He's a dev on here.

Good luck having a working finger print reader on any custom ROM. I don't see the point of swapping out the ROM on this phone. I definitely see the points to root vs not root (despite initially not rooting this phone the first few months of ownership).

Hi all! Here you can share what ROMs you use on the Moto X Play device. Why have you chosen that ROM, what's the name? And if you want link the download for other users to see! :good:
RR - Best stability, Best customistaion
XDrom, for privacy reasons
1) rr
2) krexus
3) tesla
4) xosp
all with multirom
Just for fun, I'm a flashaholic.
I use XOSP ROM at the moment as big fan of sony xperia software. Might try some of your suggestions as well though.
Custom Rom: RR the best, stability,customitation,battery life!!
Stock Rom: Epsilon v1 : stability like a stock with included squid kernel
Its so personal. I like it simple and clean. Stock or debloated roms only. Mostly i get lost in all the extra settings and menu's and realize I never gonna use and need all this extra stuff that ruins my sot and return to stock the next day.

Yup, its the most feature rich rom. Happy experimenting. Why i chose RR is because there are no bugs for me like the camera hdr bug or inability to store to sd card through inbuilt cam. Also its officially supported by themes.
Stock ROM with Xposed because I like the stability and battery life is good.
Cyanogenmod 13 and RR are good but their battery is really bad,im on stock and is the best.
i always end up back on stock + xposed on all phones i got .
For me the best is plain CM13. Has all the features I use and more and most roms use it as basis for varous thins like security updates.

Dirty Unicorn has been rock solid and I suggest staying away from CM based roms as they tend to have issues. Staying with AOSP based roms will give you better stability and Dirty offers a lot of options and features that limits your need for Xposed.
You can see the Dirty Unicorn XDA thread, but that is limited as it is just a dropping off point. you are better using their Google+ community.

Try them all and decide for yourself. DU is by far more reliable and feature filled than cm. I ran cm for a few days but in the end pound for pound DU for me outperforms cm.

However there is any information about how well the hal3 enable mod works on that ROM...how manual can we get with the cameras nor if the ROM comes with some ported camera app
Two ROMs that I've had the best luck with are DU and Orion.
Orion has issues with the microphone. It seems to have low sensitivity so I have to talk really loud in call and even when using google speech to text I have to speak up. Others have had issues with MMS but it seemed fine to me.
DU seemed to have significant battery drain and random reboots on 10.6. Using 10.5 seems to solve both of these issues so for now DU 10.5 has been my daily driver.
Both are great ROMs and are both AOSP based. Resurrection Remix I've also used for a while but also had microphone issues which was a dealbreaker for me.
Best ROM for me. I'm on the February update.

I have been running flawlessly since I got my MOTO X Pure (2015) from SWAPPA https://swappa.com/.

I have tried most of them (with TruePure being the best "custom" rom) and found that stock with root,xposed/gravitybox, and substratum is the best hands down. I mean honestly, with stock and gravitybox and using substratum in legacy RRO mode really does everything a custom rom does cleanly and bug free. I just recently fastboot flashed the current Sept factory image from Moto coming from TruPure, flashed TWRP, rooted, and set up exposed. The latest radio is already performing better than on TruPure, and the performance/battery is identical. I'd highly recommend this to anyone that's been running custom for a while. A nice factory image flash updates ALL of your partitions to the current build and I am truly seeing better signal performance (I am on verizon) from the "band 12 fix" radio that was really the only latest flashable radio for us.

I have tried various different custom ROMs such as DU, TruPure, Orion, AICP and found TruPure to be the most stable and Orion to be the fastest. However, TruPure started having very noticeable lag so I switched to Orion and the speed difference was night and day. However my one and only issue with Orion was that WIFI was incredibly slow. I constantly had to toggle wifi on off to get the speed back. I found this issue in DU and AICP also.
Now I am running the 6.0 Sabissimo V1 and Wifi is back to normal. Its sad becasue Orion was fantastic in its speed and customization! I really miss the little features such as adding date on status bar, % only battery sign, killall option when recents menu opened, and etc.
I just want stock rom stability with system customizations such as % only battery sign & the killall option when recents menu opened. I dont care for themes at all

If you're looking for a 7.1 ROM, try out dirty unicorns. They are not on XDA, but they have a Google+ page and a website with downloads for Clark. It is one of the most stable ROMS right know for this device. If you wanna stay on marshmallow I'm pretty sure Tru pure is still a great ROM, and you probably wouldn't wanna change.
I've gone back to stock with this device as every custom rom that I have tried has had some issue or another, making them unstable. The Brazilian stock nougat TWRP backup that is available on this forum is working surprisingly well on my device, an XT1572 being used in the UK.

None of the ROM'S do gestures as well as the stock gestures work, such as waving hand to wake the phone..etc..but they still work fairly well. Dirty unicorns also has the other moto gestures such as flip the phone to silence among others.
+1 for dirty unicorns. I'm running on their latest official release and its pretty good.
The latest build of stock 6.0.1 + Root + Xposed.
Stock... pure, untouched stock is the best for stability and speed, no doubt about it.
If you mean what CUSTOM rom is best, BrokenOS for MM or Dirty Unicorns for Nougat... Both are good, but neither one is as stable as stock.

Hi.
I'm about to buy this phone, and i would like to question which rom is the best for hard gaming? Latest stock, los, aicp 13.1 (oreo 8.1) with blackscreen kernel or else.
I will unbloat any rom, plus apply my own tweaks
For now i think the best would be stock or aicp, but... On stock I don't have vulkan api nor custom kernel, and about aicp, not sure how stable is it
If aicp has newer gpu driver and better antutu/3d score than i will chose that.

X722, but i read that i need to flash an old version to unlock the bootloader and than flash twrp and than magisk... And i would like the latest stock rom version.
It will more likely come with a modified 20s image, with multi language, someone in my family just got one. All i had to do was type the unlock bootloader command and flash trwp (make sure to get correct version for the x722). Just don't flash official images with twrp or it will brick apparently.

If you want to sell your parts, there are plenty of people on XDA with hardware issues that could use the components from your broken phone.
Well its not broken as in not working, it works fine. I still have my LG X Power with a cracked screen that works fine, just with some things, I use reasons like this to upgrade, even though it still works, or I could even buy another pro 3, but upgrading things has always been one of my faults, spending money when I don't need to :0. I had the x520 as my main backup/wifi phone, but it got stolen, so I might use this phone as my main backup. But ill keep in mind letting it go on here.
Hi all,
Have been using the 1+5 since launch day, bought this beast at midnight on launch day and since then it's just amazed me....but I've been stuck picking a ROM due to the encryption decryption worry, I'm currently decrypted on xXx
What ROM are you using and why?
Not looking for the best, just for the points of why one over another.
Cheers.
Hi!

What do the other ROMs offer over OOS? If anything? Easier theming?

Different ROMs are build above different sources -- OOS, AOSP, LineageOS... -- and contain various modifications -- theming options, kernel tweaking, features ported from other devices, ability to streamline the system experience, stellar stability or release-early-release-often, etc. Every ROM is different, though at some point they offer more of less similar features -- eck, it's all Android at the core! Still, they represent what their devs feel is important for a joyful experience. Read the first post of a topic, you should have a general idea of what you get.

Thanks, maybe I didn't explain it enough, what I meant was what do you use and prefer and why?
What features sell you the ROM of your choice over others.
I think you can see by the amount of phones I've had that I've seen quite a few.
What are you using at the moment and why?
Benefit over OOS?
I've always been in love with Codename Phoenix, and I still am. I flashed everything there is out there, and every kernel. My conclusion: either OOS, or Phoenix. All the others either have some bugs or annoying problems. I choose Phoenix over OOS because it is just as smooth if not even smoother & faster while providing much more features than OOS. Also, 2 stable builds a month. That's much faster updates than OOS.

The guy deleted all of the G+ and xda threads, because he hated the drama. All he wanted to do at the end of the day is just share the builds he makes with his friends and his loyal users, so he only just has a telegram where he posts fully stable builds around two times per month. MOD EDIT: LINK REMOVED

The rom also has OOS cam working. The ROM itself is closed source, but it's stellar, so I am sure there's a reason behind him making it closed source. I bet he is some ex developer of some other mainstream rom who really knows his stuff.
The rom that give Codename Phoenix a head to head competition is AOSIP, I have used both and settled down on latter.

Aye i was looking at that one, again though it aims towards encrypted devices, I'm currently decrypted and have fallen foul of the memory becoming unreadable and thus losing data before, that noverity is that all you flash after the rom?
ROM / Gapps / Noverity
In that order right?

I am decrypted as well, yes order is correct just flashing magisk after the rom makes sure that you will stay decrypted.

Ok cool, cheers pal.
Will look into it this week sometime. :good:
I went with AICP, firmware 5.1 at this point is needed with it. Modded Gcam working, modded oneplus cam also working. Alot of features, uses LOS and others for base. if your a flashaholic like myself they have nightlies close to every night even. If you want a custom kernel most of the LOS compatble ones (EX, Flash, Franco) work. Battery life is great, and I like the feature set. Eneough tweaking I dont need substratum to have the look I want. Using Magisk 14.4 beta for root. solid eneough to be a daily driver for sure. Bluetooth works perfect for me as well, no wifi issues.
Still using Pure Fusion 7.1.2, as it's aosp-based yet has oos camera fully working(with portrait and slow-mo).

So I am going to do this later...I am on XXX 10.5 right now, Oreo.
I am unencrypted...
To put Phoenix on my OP5 and not lose data...
In TWRP:
1. Wipe everything but internal storage...
2. Flash Phoenix
3. Flash GAPPS
4. Flash Magisk
Done?

Beta as well. It had only one problem for me - stock alarm app is broken so I pulled it from another ROM.

Have to say I'm more than curious about this ROM now, it is also Friday so I have the weekend to spend, no excuse for me now, I'll be doing the same pal.

Not a worry for me that, I've got a Lumie that gets brighter in the morning and tweets at me, wakes me up better than a normal alarm.
How's theming on pure fusion? Been having some issues with my preferred theme lately, in fact so many themes these days don't work.
Google just wants to be lighter and lighter, how they haven't got a dark side I'll never know.
Besides robbing everyone's data
Just like OP, i'm running xXx oos based rom since the beginning, and i'm pretty happy with it.
I'm interested in trying some custom roms, but i've read almost everywhere that custom roms can't get close to camera quality of OOS, is this still true ?
I don't mind flashing any magisk camera mod module if that could help :good:
