Hi,
In this month I have installed almost all the existing custom ROMs for my SM-N9005.
I found three ROMs the best:
LineageOS
MagMa NX
N7 port Phonersis
But I can't decide which one to use.
This is the hardest decision I've ever had.
Please help
Use the one that gives you what you want as opposed to the one that gives me what i want .
Bearing in mind that two of those roms are well out of date and one is a non Samsung rom .
Yes, my problem is there.
I need both of them but I guess I'll just use LOS.
Thanks
But then I have another problem .
LineageOS 18.1 OFFICIAL is released for my device.
And I found a LineageOS 19 with almost no bugs but alpha.
I don't know which one to choose.

After a recent disaster with my S5 I replaced it with a Note 3 n9005.
Am very happy with the phone but it has so much potential to be better. Are there any 7.1 roms that are actively being updated and is there any chance of official builds any time soon.
I would love to put 7.1 on this phone but don't want to get stuck with bugs I have to put up with for extended periods.
Thanks for any advice in advance.

There are always bound to be bugs when dealing with unofficial software like ports or ROMs, they're not perfect. As for an official Nougat release for a 4 year old phone that doesn't even have an official Marshmallow release? I highly doubt it. I would suggest just sticking with stock.
Thanks for the reply guys.
I know Samsung will never upgrade this phone to nougat or above but the custom rom community have done some amazing things bringing the latest versions of android to older phones when their manufacturers stop supporting them to make you buy their latest an greatest phone.
When I asked about official builds I was referring to Resurrection Remix or Lineage LOS 7.1 builds which get weekly updates. There will always be bugs I know but weekly builds help to fix them.

If I may suggest, I would try out a Note 7 port. I know it's not Nougat but in my opinion, Marshmallow with the Note 7 features is just as good and a lot of people have tested them out and are really stable. But as for more Nougat ROMs, RR and Lineage I think are the only options but I haven't tried them myself.
There is an official Note 5 Nougat rom out, so it should be possible to port that. We just have to wait for someone with the knowledge and interest to do it.
I'm running the Note 7 Phronesis Marshmellow rom, and I highly recommend it if you don't want to wait for a Nougat rom.

Thank you am currently trying the Phronesis Rom N7 v5.2 and am liking it very much very smooth and seems very stable.
And if i'm reading the forum correctly there should be a V6 version becoming available in the next couple of days.
thanks for the recommendation this rom will do very nicely until or if someone ports the N5 nougat rom which we can only hope for.
Guy's I need some help here please!
I can't decide which ROM is better for my SM-J500M. I've tried all ROMs available till now and loved every single one of them, but I want to stick to only one.
Which one of these two you guy's think its the most stable and better to keep with: LineageOS 14.1 or AICP?
Both are similar and have the same base but would be good tho have some advice from you.
So, which one you guy's recommend for me to stick with?
I have LineageOS 14.1 by Dyenete. It's very good, no lags. But i will change it because i don't have to many modules and VPN also doesn't work in nougat custom ROMs.
Hello, I own a Moto G4 Plus that I have tested various ROMs on and have had experiences with flashing ROMs on Samsung devices, so a friend of mine asked if I could help him out too. So how stable are the Oreo ROMs? Would there be one that could be called the "best" one? Would it be worth for him to switch to a custom ROM or should he stay on the stock one?
Oreo ROMs are very good the best for me are LineageOS and Resurrection Remix OS
Just my personal experience but...I´m yet to see a Custom Rom for J5 2016 that matches Stock Rom. Used all of them from Lineage to Dot OS and although they are pretty stable, performance is a bit hit and miss. Sometimes the phone works like a rocket and sometimes you nedd to reboot it to make it usable again. I have kids and take a lot of photos, so the shutter lag in custom roms is a great con, for me.
This may vary from user to user, which GApps you use, which apps you use, so I would give it a try anyway. From the ones I used, Lineage is by far the best.
Hi guys,
I'm wondering why redmi note 7 doesn't have official stuffs. Most important is TWRP.
But it don't have pixel experience or Lineage too, the 2 most biggest rom.
I know unofficial build exist, but personally i don't really like to use them. We don't know what they did put into them, what they did.
Is there any technical explanation or just every dev bought a redmi note 7 pro? But i don't think so because the pro isn't launched worldwide.
I'm really missing an official twrp at least
smae with me bro...
there really won't be a difference between unofficial and official. the only "benefit" from official is having the download link available on the rom's official page; daily usage wise they should be identical. if anything a rebase after going official might make the rom buggier in the short term, but roms here are stable enough as they are. it's only your loss if you refuse to use working roms simply because they are unofficial, and sooner or later they will have the official status anyway.
your point about official twrp is valid though, having 3 twrps is really confusing.
Well, official TWRP isn't there but official OrangeFox recovery based on latest TWRP is there.
Also there isn't official Pixel Experience ROM but there is official AOSP Extended ROM, SybarianOS ROM, Evolution X ROM.
You just have to wait for those, which aren't has official support. As far as I know, after a week or two the official Pixel Experience ROM is coming.
Like I said up there, you have to wait. Don't be hurry-ish like that.
OrangeFox is already live, and stable, it´s way better than twrp, abour roms, just hang cus it might take some time before get lineageOs and other going official

1st there's no BEST custom rom. There's only a rom that suits your purposes.
Bugs can be here and there in custom roms since they are made within free time for free,just to remember.
You'll not receive answers just only with one specific rom, cause of individual preferences
I liked msm extended and LineageOS, but just try some of them out, as you did sjrefy already https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/development

Agreed with that thanks for replying
If you search a ROM that has updates, a good battery life, a good stability and that's ready for daily use the answer is LineageOS
