Just bought my 1+2. Currently using 1+1 and thinking if it's better to use cm12.1 rather than oxygen os. How different are these 2 roms? Coming from 1+1,im more inclined to cm12. Please advise.

I'd be inclined to agree if there was an official CyanogenMod 12.1 nightly channel for the 1+2
Pardon my ignorance. In that case, I'm pretty sure there would be one soon since this is one of the flagship. [emoji2]

But there isn't an official CM for the 1+2 yet...
True..but unofficial work fine here. Or u can wait for its release, I don't think it vl take much tym,
I think I'll wait for official cm12.1.... Love the customisation options there

CM has limitations at the moment on the OP2 - eg no fingerprint sensor

How long we'll wait?
We'll wait until native fingerprint scanner support is introduced in Android 6.0 marshmallow.

there is lots of complaints about Oxygen Os in chinese forums. Actually Op didn't have much time to do the test before release the official (or stable) build, because it should be preinstalled on the Oneplus 2. That is to say, so far, there is not much difference between official and preview...

Sure, but that doesn't mean it's less suitable for the phone?
What OS is currently working better on the OP2?
OXYGEN OS until Official CM 12.1 here as well. CM is THE reason why I bought 1+1 in the first place.
I am using Unofficial CM 12.1 on my OPT and it works fine.
Missing fingerprint yeah, and there are several bugs like LED notif, home button response for waking up the phonem double screen tap, little network errors etc, but it's so faster than Oxygen ... It's a great OS but not mature enough. CM is mature.
I hope bugs will be fixed soon and it will be perfect.

this is also another Os named Hydrogen Os for chinese Users...
But neither of these is considered feature-complete.
So my personal opinion is to keep waiting...
Seeing there is no fingerprint support in unofficial cm, I shall use oxygen for the meantime

I've only ever used Cyanogenmod and Lineage, but now there is no stable and good release for J5 (2016). Obviously, stock has so much bloat and is super slow, all I want is fast, functioning and pretty phone. Which is the ROM of choice for you and why?

Am pretty much 50/50 between TW and aosp.TW can easily be debloated mainly stock and just add quasar 1.6 fix and runs fast same as kernel that's in space os and I recommend that one too.Am currently on Havoc which is great looking and saves you a good 1.5gb TWRP backup so yes the aosp are already debloated.All the oreo roms are fast in my opinion.Havoc is my favourite followed by RR 6.0.1 and the older lineage builds are great too.

Not as smooth as aosp ROMs tho. TW is a really heavy skin over android and is known to be slow and stuttery even on the best of devices.
But yes you are right it is the smoothest of the TW ROMs due to the heavy debloat. Especially the SEP 8.5 LITE.
For me though I stick with aosp ROMs because they are a lot faster, a lot more customisable and also better on battery life.
But everyone has different tastes and what suits me and you might not suit someone else.
All ROMs are amazing and we need to give more thanks and donations to the devs

No battery problems for me with Havoc.It can be a bit slow to charge sometimes but not big battery drain.Yes I think bluetooth audio might be problem on some aosp roms if you use bluetooth but I use wired headset and bluetooth works fine in all aosp roms I have tried for file transfers and connecting to externel devices like gamepad which I use.

Be careful with this rom (although link is dead now) so HTCMania calls Redmi Note 5/Pro to Whyred device cause this is the new standard denomination from Xiaomi and our device Vince is called Redmi 5 Plus and it has other different forum in this site than the mentioned here.
This is actually the thread for this rom for our device https://www.htcmania.com/showthread.php?t=1445531 but it was closed too according moderator for no support.
I don't know why there is no one supporting after this rom is so successful. Maybe the devs left it with all the errors fixed and made it pretty hard for us to go back to any other custom rom than this, especially me because I love miui roms and added mods have made this rom outperform every other miui custom/modded rom so far......
guys, just a quick question. did you install the firmware too?
did you do it after flashing the rom and before rebooting?

I didn´t refer to your link, I referred to the link provided by OP in the post #4 and I said that the link from HTCMania fortunately was dead at that moment so this was not for Vince but for Whyred and I guess he took note of this.
Just warning to the users so both devices were rebranded; Redmi Note 5 - Whyred from the link no longer is called Redmi Note 5 Pro and Redmi 5 Plus - Vince no longer is called Redmi Note 5 nor Redmi Note 5 Plus.
Anyway thanks for the new link, just waiting less of 24 hours to unlock my second R5P.

OTA. You can update using the built-in updater located at under System > Updates. Personally I prefer to update once or twice a month, you can choose whether you want to upgrade frequently or leave a certain time gap between updates (recommended since more change logs = more improvement).
I've been using this ROM since January and the RAM management is far better than Pixel Exp/Resurrection Remix. It feels buttery smooth. SOT & battery performance depends on types of app usage (audio/video etc).

I have only used Pie roms (RR, Pixel Experience & LOS) after switching from stock OS. Resurrection Remix had so many customizable options but it seemed too heavy for me, and the battery backup was a lot lesser. Pixel Experience was great though, I chose to stick to Lineage OS due to personal preferences.

Although I do have some complains, Lineage OS doesn't let you disable/turn off a particular sim if you're using a dual-sim phone. I liked that feature in RR (as well as stock Oxygen OS). I rarely use my other sim but staying connected to network drains a lot of battery for me, disconnecting it physically is a lot of work.
Just moved from stock to Pixel Experience. Smooth as, and no bugs yet.

I currently have Unlegacy Android 7.1.2 June 2020 build installed, but i'm planning to downgrade. Is omni roms a derivative of some other rom or is it independent? I don't like Lineage OS 13 and Slim 6 is a derivative of LOS. I have not tried omni 6 as of now.
I just got this tablet from a friend. I tried factory reset on the existing stock rom it had, I installed 4 different custom roms and I then went back to stock rom(4.2.2). This thing is so friggin laggy. Was there ever a time(rom) that this thing worked properly? I just want it for browsing, and it takes FOREVER to load a page(if it loads at all). As is, it is a useless piece of junk.
yeah I've just found it inside a closed. Flashed a few "newish roms" and it lags a lot even in the UI and random issues like Missing the top menu until I go into settings.
Will try to go back to 4.x and see if it lags there too. I remember it to be usable once booted.
It seems to heat a lot. Don't know if these things have a thermal paste.
edit cm11 2020 update works ok. but i need 5.0 up

I'm sorry to hear of your troubles. Out of those 4 custom roms you've tried, were any of them based off android 6? If all of them were android 7 based, then there's the problem. As of now, any custom rom based off android 7 are unstable. If you want stability, then go with Unlegacy Android 6, Lineage OS 13, Slim6 and Omni6(highly recommended).

Andi omni ROMs are quite good for performance and battery just don't install gapps. But I have not tried unlegacy yet but other than that I kind tried everything else

Slim 6 is like the worst for me
And the heating isn't exactly the rarest thing for this thing. If you want to sacrifice some of the apps you may use that require gapps then ditch google services entirely it improves performance and battery
Then for YouTube use vanced and for the app store use aurora

As of now, any custom rom based off android 7 are unstable. If you want stability, then go with Unlegacy Android 6, Lineage OS 13, Slim6 and Omni6(highly recommended).

Yeah, avoid all android 7 based custom roms for this device.

I'm not too sure about it since i flashed gapps, but you would have to flash f droid apk with TWRP. Aurora Store is what you'd use to download the file manager

I currently have Unlegacy Android 7.1.2 June 2020 build installed, but i'm planning to downgrade. Is omni roms a derivative of some other rom or is it independent? I don't like Lineage OS 13 and Slim 6 is a derivative of LOS. I have not tried omni 6 as of now.

slim 6 is the worst rom for me by far i think omni is independent
im using andi's ports of omnirom

Download F Droid apk with another device such as a pc or another android. Send the apk to a micro sd card and put in your GT2.
If your GT2 have TWRP, use it to flash F Droid apk.
If successful, download Aurora Store via F Droid.
I always went with gapps, so these instructions are not 100% accurate, i hope i could help you out.
