Fortunately there are too many roms for our beloved device these days. So the aim of this thread is to review and compare available roms. Please share your experience: battery life, smoothness, depth of customization, bugs, etc.
pixel ROM ，very good，Can try, the core is not very good, you can replace
I tested AOSIP, Derpfest, LOS, Havoc, Pixel, Candy, CRDRUID and AEX. They are all good and promising. Some need more work.
Customization: Pixel=LOS<Derpfest=AOSIP=Candy=CR=AEX=Viper<Havoc<RR
Battery: Havoc, AEX, CR and AOSIP with AFRKernel are better choices.
Smoothness: I liked AOSIP the most followed by Derpfest, Havoc, and CR.

Just out of curiosity, I did the a GeekBench tests for different ROMs for my Moto G. All the ROMs were installed with the same apps, Before each test, the phone was powered off and started again, left to settle down for 3 minutes. Then I did the tests 2 times consecutively, and the results tabulated.
As the saying goes, benchmarking is not reflective of real world, so take the result with a pinch of salt.
where do you think resurrection remix would be?
Since Resurrection Remix is based on CM, I'd expect similar results. Just look at SlimSaber, it's based on Omnirom and they have similar results. When I have the time, I'll try to test RR.

Resurrection Remix has a lot of compiler optimizations added into it which might change the score.
I don't see any comparison in this subforum.
Perhaps we can compare and discuss different ROMs
Which do you like and why?
I only really test CyanogenMod 13 and Lineage OS.
Can I add something ---
Which ROM is best for GAMING?
Ah ah I just had the same question. I wondered why there were so many flavors of Lineage Os, and what were the difference. For the moment I have tested only stock (Alxndr's rom) and Lineage 14.1 Official.
- Lineage OS offical is great. The fingerprint recognition is lightning fast, and the rom is globally fast. There are lots of customization and options.
- Stock has however a better battery life, Ultra Power Saving Mode, camera and dialer.
I don't do gaming. However, I can tell the performance in antutu is equivalent (+/- 53.000). Stock had a better 3d score (11.000, vs 8.000 for LOS) and should do better for gaming.
My dream would be a Lineage OS with ported touchwiz framework for edge, camera, sms and dialer. Or a S7 nougat rom with ported LoS fingerprint.
I am running Vaniraosp these days.

And why
I am using LOS at the moment and it blazing quick the only thing is that my phone heats heat up!!
Resurection remix for customisation. Fast and very good battery life base on AOSP.

AOKP seems to have everything working that i have come across and gets nightly updates i like Cr Droid but was still getting rotation issue Kltedv hopefully that will be sorted in the next update
Official linage
Tried LOS, Resurrection Remix and crdroid. LOS is good but seems so vanilla in front of RR and crdroid.
I like features. Resurrection Remix has the most features. crdroid is similar but slightly less features, but excellent battery life of all.
I switched back to RR from crdroid in the hopes of getting battery life improvement with boeffla kernel, forcedoze, hebf optimizer, but not seeing it so far. May go back to crdroid.
@freefourlife
Battery life with crDroid so much better? Any disadvantages?

No. Minor additional features in RR. Planning to switch back, as I couldnt get similar battery efficiencies even with custom boeffla kernel
I feel safer and more stable with official lineage OS, but this is only illusion in my head.

You are in for a treat for v 2.1 when it will be released. They are improving it a lot in terms of performance and battery life.
based on stock mm, great bat life, nice mods on stock SUPERLite MiNi MM *361mb*
i tested AICP, LOS and CrDroid i want to test AOKP, the most developed was AICP, but the battery life and the ram usage was the worst, but it was the better choice, all the things worked, but i prefer LOS, Crdroid it has a lot of bugs in 2.0, i don't tested the 2.1 but a few users said that the sim card is not detected so i will wait, it has the best battery life compared with the other roms but a lot of things aren't working so it's not the best thing and LOS is vanilla but with little customizations, so it's really cool, the dev's can improve the battery life but, i think that if you use LOS is ok for daily use.
I really like LINEAGE OS official. But I use custom TW roms just because I prefer TW camera . So I hope to use LINEAGE OS with ported TW framework for stock or N7 camera .

Never tested AICP, but there are daily updates I see.
crDroid has different problems I recognized that, too. And few updates.
I only have a very small test with AOKP, everything seems working.
At the moment using LineAge OS with (nearly) no bugs. Battery life is OK, but not perfect. Performance seems good, no problem at the moment.
But I'm always interested in other ROMs or interesting features etc.

Can anyone suggest me the best stable rom ..And a suitable kernel ...I'm flashing for the first time ..So please help
I have been using Validus-athene-7.1.1.Release.13.7-OFFICIAL-20170319-1903! and I have faced no problems so far, it is smooth as butter and substratum works like a charm! It has a built in magisk instead of su which really helps!
The best is subjective. My favorite is Ressurection Remix but for some reason the notification light doesn't work for missed calls and voicemails and that really bothers me for some irrational reason. If you like the Moto camera, it will work without having to remove any system files.
I am using Tesla which has been working great. There is something about RR I like better but have forgotten what it is. Validus is an awesome time as well.
Most of the other ROMs seem really good as well but I can't get the Moto camera to work with them. I have to reboot to get the pics to show up in the gallery, Google photos etc.
The best and most fun thing to do is try them all. A day without flashing is like a day without sunshine.
The only good custom kernel ATM for Athene is ElementalX. Vegito and Quark have very buggy hotplug implementations so there's a lot of jank and lag. ElementalX keeps the 4 powersave cores enabled all the time, but also has a slight overclock, sound control, color control, and a bunch of other features as well.
Custom ROMs are also subjective in terms of UX. The majority of ROMs out there are LineageOS-based, and all are pretty smooth and functional.
Beanstalk is a very solid ROM that I've used. Stock ROM + ElementalX is also a very good combination.
In my opinion, the best in terms of:
1. Customisation - RR, AICP, Validus, DU
2. Stability + useful additions - Invicta, CypherOS
3. Close to stock + Behind the scene optimisation - Jerome's Creampie with Nougat (basically ODE-XED stock Moto ROM) or just Stock ROM with EX kernel
4. Battery life (subjective, but based on average opinion) - Invicta, Oct-OS
I wouldn't recommend LineageOS yet as it still is jittery and unfinished to me - needs more time.
I haven't tried AOGSPX, TipsyOS, Tesla, Beanstalk and Darkness redefined ROM so can't comment. Maybe you should
AOSP-CAF Pure, AICP, CarbonROM, DU development is relatively stunted and unofficial versions so updates aren't as reliable I guess.
In my opinion no kernel comes close to EX. Actually most inbuilt kernels seems pretty optimised. Lineage + EX and Stock + EX seems pretty nice. I also think some of them ROMs have EX commits baked in so not much of a difference.
Have a nice day Happy flashing!
Ok, fine, I'll make a decent list of ROMs and kernels here:
Kernels: Nothing but ElementalX. LOS incorporates EX commits, or vice versa, idk. Regardless, @flar2 's kernel is by far the best if your ROM lacks some TCP config/io schedulers/sound control. Most ROM kernels are generally stable regardless.
ROMs:
So far, I have tested:
- RR- stable, customizable
- DU- stable, customizable
- LOS 14.1- stable, limited in customization, but naturally better than stock
- LOS 14.1 OMS (now Invicta)- stable, customizable with OMS
- AOSP-CAF- fast, stable, great battery life, limited on the customization
- Slim7 UNOFFICIAL- same as above
- Slim6- stable, good battery life, but unoptimized and stuttery
- Temasek CM13- stable, meh battery life, performance is slightly better than Slim6
- CM13 UNOFFICIAL- same as above
- GZR Tesla- fast, customizable
- AOSPExtended- slow and laggy even after repeat flashes and wipes, like wtf? Very customizable however.
- AOKP- meh, somewhat laggy, good customization
- BeanStalk- one of my favorites- fast, customizable, good battery life
- OmniROM- also a good ROM- fast, somewhat customizable, stable
- Stock with EX/Magisk- extremely stable, but it's never been as good as a clean custom ROM. Other people may argue with me though.
My list of favorites are the following:
- AOSP-CAF
- BeanStalk
- OmniROM
Huge shout out to the new PureNexus build that was released today! Will update this list after testing it.

Thanks for the info !
Hi, i've counted about 30 roms in the roms section... I'm looking (like the title) for a rom like purenexus on nexus but for oneplus 5... For who don't know what i'm talking about, it's not full of customization and it's very fast... Suggestion?
The stock ROM?
It offers a slight bit of customizations, but not too much. And it seems pretty fast to me.
Your only other option may be Slim. They don't have many features and pretty much no bloat.
When I say they don't have too many features I mean in comparison to ROMs such as Resurrection Remix which is loaded.
Dirty Unicorns is on par with PN in terms of stability, performance and features. Sadly is not on XDA but you can grab it from devsbase or their G+ community page.
Omnirom with pixel launcher
thank you all... i really love how fast the freedom os is and no other rom is so fast but i really miss substratum for themes... i've tried the resurrection remix is amazing but too much options for me and it's not fast like oxygen/freedom.... i tried also DU and PA but they're too laggy and too slow for me... I will try Slim7 and OminRom, thank you
is RR dead or why is it so flawed?
If you look at the download numbers for the Official ROM it's not great. That could of course be because it hasn't been in great shape, or that people can see it's not being supported well. Obviously they'll concentrate their efforts on devices with a bigger user base.
I use Official RR on my 3T and it's awesome, with weekly builds, so i was a little disappointed too. Fortunately Eliminater is doing a great job with his Unofficial builds, so if you're a fan of RR there's no reason to go without.
