MOST SATISFYING ROM and KERNEL FOR US - Xiaomi Redmi 3s Guides, News, & Discussion

Hi guys! I am making this thread so that we could have a place to tell the community which is the most satisfying ROM and kernel in our opinion and experience that you have used or most probably are using right now. Guys it would be really helpful if you share what qualities make that ROM or kernel most satisfying in your opinion like bb or performance or something unique about that ROM or kernel. Guys I welcome you to share any special settings (ROM or ka) you have done to achieve that satisfaction. So guys do share and help the community and show gratitude to respective developers as well .....
Thank You!

My choice is crdroid nougat official with stock kernel. Super stable and nice bb for my usage. I'm using it right now. No special settings. Just extreme battery saver all the time.

I think that the combination ofofficial RRos nougat and beacon kernel is very stable. I'm using it right now

I haven't used many ROMs but the most satisfying ROM for me is Viper Coral [nouget ]. Its butter smooth and best batter backup. It also doesn't have slow charging problem unlike other Oreo ROMs . It take only 2-2.5 hours to complete charge the device. Since I am not a Jio user I don't know about volte.

for me it's the viper os coral 3.1.1 final by impulsar it even shows certified in device status in play store , it's the most stable rom for me gr8 bb no volte issue nothing it's the best with stock kernel & also with beacon

Both vipers are great I.e. impulsar's and dinesh's both are certified in play store

Extreme performance!

Yup.. True.. Extreme performance.. Butter smooth, excellent multitasking possibilities. Good battery backup (but not the best), but wen compared to performance, this is more than sufficient.. Excellent work by developer.. Kudos..

liquid remix, stock kernel.

I am very pleased with AEX 4.6 and the Spicey Kernel. Great battery backup, responsiveness and performance, GCamMod and everything else is working. The only downside is that it is not actively maintained anymore, so no new security updates. As I had several problems with Oreo ROMs and their GAPPS, I hope that the developers will iron out these issues to make the switch sometime in the future (the unofficial crDroid build was promising, but GAPPS didn't work there for me).

Why? Is there any issue when you were using oreo GApps?
I'm using Oreo and Nano GApps right now, it runs normally without any issue

Yes, I had issues with the 8.1 April 1st release (pico and nano) from opengapps.org. I first flashed the ROM, rebooted and then flashed GAPPS and I got "play services stopped" as soon as I try to setup my device. And as I did mention in the other posts, I've tried other ROMs and TWRPs as well with the same reproducible result and ran out of options there. Hence I got back to AEX 4.6 and even flashing it together with GAPPS went without problems wheras I get bootloops if I flash them together with Oreo ROMs.

I did try even older ones from December, but that did not work as well. Look overe here in this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/xiaomi-redmi-3s/help/flash-oreo-roms-t3743439/page4
Some people found a solution which worked for them, but I haven't tried them myself yet.

Bootleggers and unofficial crdroid by difr

I have used many custom roms with stock and beacon combo (excluding treble as beacon for treble is not out yet)
I vote for Bootleggers ROM.
It's a complete package with 99.9% pure android bug-less experience. All features work flawlessly. Best thing about this rom is Battery Backup. it's amazing, a LOT more compared to any other rom be it Nitrogen RR Firehound Cr AEX LiquidRemix Viper PixelExperience MIUI etc. I have tried them all but finally Bootleggers compelled me to stick with it for Battery Backup and almost NO bugs.

My latest choice - AEX oreo build by Woivod

AEX oreo build by Woivod, hands down.

Here's a link to resurrection remix. It's pretty good. https://forum.xda-developers.com/le-max-2/development/x82x-resurrectionremix-m-v5-7-4-t3542355. Most N roms are stable. You have instructions how to install the rom and what gapps to use in the first post on the rom thread. It's also pre rooted.
For the future, when you want to install root just flash this: http://tiny.cc/latestmagisk
Heyyo, for the most stable Nougat ROM? I'd recommend OmniROM. It's not as bleeding edge in changes such as BlackX or Resurrection Remix but it is built for stability upon OmniROM and Darkobas kernel. Depending as well on the build of Resurrection Remix it could have battery drain issues as you'll see on and off in the thread.
OmniROM also has the advantage of signed builds by Google so they come with official SafetyNet Certification. No need of Magisk and Magisk module workarounds so things like fingerprint unlock with your banking app should work without issue unlike any other ROM I've tried with RBC app... That also means if the Le Max 2 had built in NFC that android pay would have worked without a hitch...
I believe the only other custom ROM with signed builds by Google for official SafetyNet Certification is Paranoid Android but sadly there isn't official builds for the Le Max 2 (yet). Maybe once GalacticSryder receives his Le Max 2 we will see that and built upon is custom kernel as well!
I tried porting it but I suck at it and failed haha oh well at least it turns out I'm good at vehicle repairs
If you want ROMs with as much optimization as possible? BlackX or Slimroms is what I'd recommend. Good device tree and vendor stacks and built with Blackscreen kernel for a good balance between performance and battery life.
Also, Resurrection Remix for Nougat has reached final versions so it won't be receiving updates. As far as I know for Nougat ROMs I think Slimroms and BlackX are the only ones receiving updates still as andr68rus and I believe the same with Shivatejapeddi have both changed focus to Oreo.

You're welcome
It's up to you which path you wish to go. As mentioned OmniROM is definitely the most stable ROM as it tends to not receive major changes as quickly as other ROMs.
The official signed builds are found here:
http://dl.omnirom.org/x2/
Any ROM is super easy to root. Only requires flashing Magisk via TWRP. I'd easily recommend it over any other form of root since it's fully open source software (FOSS) and the modules capabilities is amazing with stuff like Universal SafetyNet fix or other mods like enabling 60fps recording on the Google Camera Mod. I also really enjoy the ART Optimization mod for a little extra performance.
Magisk is found here on XDA and I'd recommend v14.3 right now because v14.0 stable has actually given me more grief heh
You can download and read up on Magisk right here
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=74158225&postcount=31
BlackX ROM is actually maintained by that other dude who posted here, KuranKaname and definitely has the most optimizations of the buch that I recommended. His builds are based on LineageOS with Blackscreen 3.6 kernel which is really nice. His ROM does require special Gapps which can be found in his thread with the ROM downloads as well.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/le-max-2/development/rom-blackx-unofficial-optimized-t3668458
Slimroms was the third I mentioned which is kind of is a balance between the stability of OmniROM but some of the optimization of BlackX.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/le-max-2/development/rom-blackx-unofficial-optimized-t3668458
Since there isn't any limit on ROMs to flash you can always try out a ROM for a few days and if it doesn't quite suit your needs you can try swapping to a different ROM to see how it feels. In the end only you will know which of the three I mentioned is to your liking the most.

Actually, my build are based on a mixture of Lineage + Slim

What is the best rom so far

I decided to flash a rom. But i can't decide which one best for daily driver.
I want to know that.. Please tell me which is the best.. Guys which rom are you using?
Bump
Hard to say because they're all pretty much alike. Pick your poison (Stock/Lineage/AOSP) and read up on the flavours the devs add to each one. Whatever floats your boat. All the active ones - that I have tried - are stable :shrug:

If you want to try out nougat roms first then, resurrection remix is a must try. Now resurrection remix comes with a ton of customisations but if you are more of a stock guy then lineage os or slim rom is for you. However if you wanna directly try out oreo (which I won't recommend) then liquid remix, aosp extended 5.1 and aoscp are roms to definitely try out.

I used cardinal for a week and i must say it's pretty good for daily driver. Smooth and stable. I tried a few oreo roms (omnirom, aex and cardinal) and i prefer cardinal in overall performance + battery. I used velvet kernel in all those roms. I decided to switch back to nougat rr since i like all those customization options and battery life is much better in nougat for now.

Pretty much all the roms are stable enough to use as a daily driver. But oreo isn't mature as of now. That's why i said not to try oreo. Plus since you haven't tried any custom rom for this devce, you "should" atleast have a look what the custom side of nougat has to offer. Don't get me wrong, oreo is good, and it's the best android right now, but there are some bugs regarding wifi and Bluetooth connectivity, and cellular network. However if you are really excited to try out oreo, especially pixel experience, then the only catch in the rom is that, many times the device is being referred as pixel and not Redmi note 4, like the setup says "set up your pixel device" , which for me i am not a huge fan of. Instead the i am gonna share my procedure for the perfect stock experience. So I've used the aoscp rom for about 2 months and it has been really good. It has a near stock experience but includes some tiny features like accent color changer, and button remapping. So what i do is, i install the rom, and along with it i install the micro package (or more recently i had started using the aroma package to install only what i need), and after gapps i install product sans font (attached thw zip in case you wanna try), and the ambient display gesture. Now at this point sometimes i also install the stormguard kernel zip file (stormguard is an overclocked kernel which actually gives nice increased performance, especially in games). Now this is my perfect setup for my device. Maybe you'll have something else? But definitely try this out.

I am currently using Luis Build.
It's the only unofficial rr build that is updated till now afaik, since there is no more official update.
I've tried almost all ROMs that are available for RN4..But when comes for daily usage I'd prefer LineageOS or resurrection remix.
And out of these two if stability and performance where of utmost important to me I'd use LineageOS(obvious isn't it??).
And if I wanted to customize my ROM as per my wish then RR it is. Doesn't mean RR is not stable it's just that Lineage is better in terms of stability.
Happy flashing!!

Nahh that's old now dude, since aoscp became official i feel it has become slower in performance. So right now i am actually using the Treble supported lineage os 15.1, and it is pretty good. However if you want customisations then there are only two roms to choose, and they are Resurrection Remix and cdDroid. These roms are filled with customisation, and both of them are based on lineage os. I've tried both and used resurrection remix for a week or so, so the main difference between both of them is, regarding the ui. The features are more or less the same, but resurrection remix is based on an older version of los rn (resurrection remix 6.0.0 taken in consideration) whereas crDroid is based on newer aources and has better ui control.
And regarding Lineage os, it is pretty good. I always decrease the animation speed to 0.5x to be smooth, and after that it's been real smooth and good. It now has some more customisation and features added. It also has a feature to change the accent color and ui mode. Pretty good. I've attached screenshots for you to see.
(The los now has new icons too)
In conclusion if you want features, go with Resurrection remix or crDroid. (I'll prefer Resurrection Remix), but if you want some aosp rom with decent amount of customisation then go for Liquid Remix or Aosip.
(In below screenshot, keep in mind that i installed the product sans font and ambient display mod
@Arnova8G2 Is there any chance that you are fixing the perennial slow motion crash bug on RN4.. I hope it is done cos it is the only thing that is not working as of now.

Hey sweetie! Lot of thanks,you are trying to make oreo rom! Good work.
Thank you @Sweetie for letting us know that your friend has made the Oreo device tree and kernel!
Looking forward to your Oreo ROM!
Can't wait to run it on my Kinzie XT1580!
great job ,waiting for oreo rom
Works great! Android 8.1 based resurrection remix would be amazing though.
Awesome rom, bro!
I'm using it as my daily driver! Just need to get used to the different gestures cuz I used to shake/wave a lot my xt1580 for torch and camera. and the sim card is worling smoothly in my reteu variant!
greet job bro, thanks for your rom!
Everythng works fine
Been running this rom for some time now, and haven't noticed ANY issue yet. Just wanted to share some screenshots.
Battery life is also great. At least as much as jwchen's LineageOS build.
No Moto Display.It's a pity.
The others are very funny and excellent.
I'm writing this post because I'm impressed with this Resurrection Remix 5.8.5 Nougat ROM for our Kinzie and it is really feature packed and really stable too! I don't know why but this ROM is so much smoother and less buggier as compared to the jwchen119's LineageOS. (Although I miss (a lot) the double twist for camera and chop chop for flashlight! )
Downside of this ROM is just the battery life. Everything else is better. Good enough as a daily driver. But you might need to find a power outlet frequently!
I only sometimes get audio statics from PowerAMP as I experienced a lot in the other ROM.
I have Magisk, Xposed and Substratum installed. Performance is good.
- Haven't test sim card cuz' currently this phone still my secondary device (unless the battery life can be improved! SOT 2.1 Hrs with heavy camera use, SOT 2.9 hours for normal usage.)
- Yet to test gaming performance because Kinzie battery life is really bad already.
@Sweetie!
Saw you updated the first post on this thread with " A friend made oreo device tree and kernel! So, it's time to bring some Oreo roms for Kinzie"! Can't wait to see Oreo Resurrection Remix for Kinzie! Or maybe ROMs (either battery priority, performance priority or both )
I am really thankful of you making so many great ROMs for Moto X Force users! Or else this device might only have 1 third party ROM to survive with! Now we've plenty of it! Thanks for extending the "lifespan" of our kinzie! Appreciate much! :victory:

I can give you oreo rom to use right now, but have few major bugs like Camera and Audio is not working at all. All credits goes to Jwchen119 <3 for his tree!
If some devs can help us in solving bugs then it'll be awesome.

I would really want to use your Oreo ROMs but not at the moment as I need to use the phone camera a lot right now (that's the reason I flash custom ROM cuz' the stock ROM camera was very slow when phone heats up!)
Please keep us posted with your new ROM! :good:
Hello Sweetie,
Thanks a lot for you job. Have you got some news for the oreo rom for kinzie ?
Bye
Hate to bump a somewhat old thread, but I just purchased one of these devices(off eBay for cheap, and ill know more when it arrives) and was wondering if you guys got the bugs on 8.0 dealt with yet, and if anyone can point me to a root method that works the best for this device??? I also want to know, are the heating up issues fixed in the android 7 custom rom, and if not, is there something I can do, like adding thermal paste or something, that will prevent heating up so much???
**edit** I bought the Turbo 2 which seems to not be able to unlock, but again, I'll know more when I get it... Hope I can use it on straight talk, or Visible Wireless...

Help me find best Oreo ROM

Hi,
I've tested many ROMs, but recently even more come. Haven't tested them yet, like DotOS, Havoc etc.
The thing is about stability, battery life, and what is MOST important, I have problems with microphone. I'm not sure if its ROM related or its hardware problem, but sometimes when I do calls, there is problem of hearing what im saying. Not sure, if the phone is using microphone from back of Le Max 2 on my ROM (LineageOS atm) or what.
So, maybe there is good ROM with implemented microphone configuration tool maybe?
Please, help me finding best ROM that will fit me
I used the following 3 Oreo ROMs
1. RR
2. Havoc (Initial Built)
3. DU
All the above ROMs are equally good. Currently using DU latest build.
Initially installed RR ROM and used more than a month since 20/3/2018. I don't face any issue with RR. Later I jumped into Havoc ROM on 26/4/2018 due to not received any updates on RR. But I faced camera focus issue in Havoc ROM. I am unable to use camera due to this. Hence I jumped into DU ROM from today.

Whats the most stable rom for Xiaomi RN4X (Snapdragon)(MIDO) ???

This is my first time installing a rom on a xiaomi, i already unlock bootloader and install TWRP.
I had consider installing Dot Os Rom but there are some comments that said that there is a slow charging issue. Right now im between Pixel Experience Rom and Lineage OS; does this ones have big bugs? i mean i want a daily driver rom . What are your recommendations? Or should i stay on miui?

In general you can say that Nougat is more stable than Oreo and has better battery life.
If you don't mind waiting till Monday and can live with a few bugs, go with LineageOS 15.1 Official (based on Oreo).
Currently I'm using LineageOS 14.1 Official. Bug free for me, stable, good battery life and updates every week.
The problem with most ROMs is actually that at some point the developer decides to drop support for a ROM and moves on the another ROM or phone. You are then left with a ROM with bugs and unfixed security holes.
That won't happen when using LineageOS official builds
