Hello respected community,
I use the 6 gig 128 gig F1 varient and I recently updated to the 0.6 version of MIUI 11. Since then I have been facing major heating, lag and battery life drop. All major. And so I'd like to switch to a custom ROM asap. I understanding asking for a best ROM ain't right because there are a lot of variables to consider. I hate the animation management on MIUI 11 as it just sparks here and there at most time.
I have I list of things that would need to be checked when switching to the ROM. I'm hoping this will make it easier for you guys.
Gaming performance, Smooth Animations, Decent SoT and Minimal bugs so as to use it as a daily driver.
If needed, I can install a custom Kernal with the ROM too. I also would like to experience the new gestures of Android 10 with it.
I guess the ones that I came across were Oxygen OS, Pixel Experience, Lineage OS, Nitrogen and Havoc. Which one might be best suitable for me from your experience?
Thanks a ton in advance. Much appreciated.
AOSP:Evo x Havoc
Lineage:CRDROİD
Miuiort MiRoom ,MandFX or official MiuiPro
11.0.6.0 is an incremental update to 11.0.4.0 which has its own flaws.

Considering ur requirements 11.0.5.0 is an all rounder : root it, change kernel, reduce animation scale to 0.5x by going into developer settings.
Now talking abt custom roms, as u knw devs have limited resources, feedback, data, sample rate, testing etc as compared to xiaomi's.
I am not saying xiaomi produces flawless roms bt u think over the above points to decide.

Thank You, how is the performance for Havoc OS? I've been wanting to test it out for a good while now. I've used Arrow OS and Bootleggers on a Moto G4 Plus and got comfortable with the features they had to offer. I'm guessing Havoc is similar too?

Thank You for the valuable feedback. Also I forgot to mention, I'd like to get out of the MIUI environment. But with the data you guys have, which Rom would you pick between Havoc and CrDroid for stability and performance? And also, which Kernal should I be using for the above said two features?
Thank You both for the valuable responses.

I put OOS on mine and never looked back.
I also use a 6T every day so I'm kind of partial to 1+

I've been using crdroid for about a year (since pie and continued to 10) and i recently switched to havoc (both versions)
I have to say that both ROMs are great.
Havoc gapps version gives a more premium feeling (for me at least).
I'm using it with Optimus drunk kernel and my gaming experience is great ( i play injustice 2 and mortal Kombat 11 ) without any drawbacks in everyday life.
P.s. I've tested almost every option and that's what I liked the most, but bare in mind that if you don't try for your self you'll never know.
wait for couple of days,
official lineage will be released, flash it
u can use a custom kernel to improve performance
other optn:

Thank you for your responses. CrDroid looks really promising as of now to be honest. I'll keep you guys updated on my move when I make it.
Cheers to you all! ??

Hello all good people
Just got my hands on Redmi note 4, cool device, but im not that into MIUI... but the device is working nicely, my concern is how stable and smooth are custom roms?
i see there are couple of popular ones, can you please tell me is there any real benefit using custom rom vs stock miui in battery life, performance.. and witch one is the most stable.
Thank you!

There are a lots of benefits of using custom ROM over stock one. Currently I'm using Resurrection Remix 5.8.3 on my rn4. It's fully stable. You can try it yourself.

For best stability bro, go forward non other than MIUI
Clearly, MIUI are made only for Mi phones, designed to be well..perfectly stable. Now others might against this lol.
Custom roms are stable too, yet miui are far more than that.
Honestly, I see no benefits using stock MIUI against stock rom (or vice versa).
They're just practically the same, only differ in some minimal undistinguishable matters.
Moreover, it the end, just a personal cup of tea.

bro i have tried ressurection remix, lineage os. Only benefit i see in using custom rom is slightly better performance than miui(and that also you will realise after playing very heavy games otherwise it is ignorable), in terms of features manual customisation is more in custom rom(most in ressurection remix)but I still very much prefer customisation through themes in miui(because i am an anime fan and are tons of attractive anime themes in chinese miui theme store). in terms of stability and battery life i didn't nltice much change(maybe slightly better bettery life in custom rom). But overall i greatly prefer miui because it has much more user friendly feachures than custom rom(which you will soon realise after using custom rom) and because of its attractive themes(mostly anime based).

It's really nice do read someone opinion based on experience with custom ROMs. I bet that battery performance on custom ROM with custom kernel should be better but in that case...
I'm currenty running beta MIUI 9 and I really enjoy system because I migrated from iOS and if there is no point to move to custom ROM I am fine with it.

I am using custom roms from a long time ,so i very much used to the looks of customs roms . Then I got mido and miui was the rom installed in that ,i didn't liked it as i felt it lacks the amount of customization and features i needed . I didnt even like the interface of miui and didn't even find it user - friendly ( its user friendly for many users ) . So definitely it was not perfect to me . And updates were very late ( all oems have this issue regarding pushing new updates ) so i moved to custom roms .
If you say what are the benefit for custom rom
1) regular updates
2) tons of customization
3) better memory management ( it can be achieved on miui using custom kernel too )
:silly: that's it from my side then . Thank you

By better management i mean the multi tasking part . Apps remains in memory . But miui is very aggressive when it comes to memory .
And why do you care for ram ? Free ram is a waste ram . You should care if you phone struggles with common apps . And you know right android is smart enough to handle this memory thing thank you
Custom roms can give you more space and possibilities

MIUI works really well, there's no denying that. I installed xiaomi eu rom a little while back and it worked really well, smooth fast and battery back seemed good. Despite all that, MIUI feels very claustrophobic when you try to navigate through the phone. Notifications are a mess. Everything seems to be crammed into that notification shade.
Needless to say, my sojourn did not last long.
Custom roms give you the freedom to choose from a variety of customisations to stock to barebones. They are light, fast and easy to work with. Only drawback is that sometimes things break in custom roms. You need to have the willingness to work around it when that happens. And there will be bugs, known and unknown both.
Battery life should not be a concern unless there is an unprecedentedly high drainage. People get unusually high SOT by limiting usage to WiFi only and staying on 2G. But in real world, with 2 Sims, 1 LTE and other 3G, 6-7 hrs SOT seems like a good bet.
Performance is at par for all. Stability may be here and there for some roms. The more customisations there are, more are the chances for things to break. You can use less customisation roms, my recommendation would be slim, mainstage os & aosp-caf. For customisations, you can pick any of the rest.
Personally I use from among the three, mainstage being the most favorite. My experience has been that idle drain is really low in slim and mainstage. Rest you will have to use them to pick your go-to roms.
And yes, camera is not the best feature of custom roms. :laugh:
Thank you all, great discussion yes miui 8 is pretty cool in its own way, but i think i will explore more stock like android experience and then miui 9

I think I should just add this point (whether it is a small or big point depends on your own perspective on your own privacy). The point is that one should be very careful about ROMs with embedded "dial home" features. Call me paranoid if you want, but, for me, this means that, for as long as there are good custom AOSP/LOS/CAF ROMs, MIUI is a non-starter.
For further information, read the "Skinny" threads on the Redmi Note 2 forums.
These devices are very competitively priced, and so are great buys - but the very first action should be to change the ROM from MIUI.
Miss those days when I was on the HTC Desire and @LeeDroid customized sense so much that it was perfect and very nice for those days.
I miss a good miui rom with stock notification icons and a working Google smartlock.
There are so much roms for mido but most of the roms is all of the same in performance and design.
We got now substratum but that is just layers not a redesign of some system apps. Like I mentioned before.
Why are there no more custom miui roms?
Is it not possible for developers to enable Google smart lock? Or change the statusbar stock notifications icons time right side?
What is the hold up here?
Yea we got xiaomi EU and few mods but nothing that spectacular.
BTW this is no offense to all those devs workings on mido I just asked myself and this is my first xiaomi phone and on HTC, Samsung roms they are modding the **** out of the stock roms.
TBH at the end of the day you will go and use stock ROM so am now out of flashing custom ROM it's now boring stuff! I rather prefer modified stock ROM like miglobe.com xiaomi.eu multirom.me and what ever and I would love to try paranoid ROM once it becomes official cause official has more features. And most important it has a OFFICIAL TAG which do matter. And taking about custom ROM all are same with a slight or little change in name and features every second nerd or geek wants to be a developer. Overall I can say that it depends upon your requirements to go or not to go. Personally if you hate miui I Mean the UI (I hate it too) than you should go with custom Rom and if you want something new and more scope of customisation. Else if you don't give a **** all you want is a phone for face book Twitter and Instagram and WhatsApp and pornhub.com then stock is for u
I have been using various custom roms on my phones for atleast 5 years. One the common hate items for custom ROM is the inferior battery backup when compared to stock ROM. My recent experience is on Asus Zenfone 2 Laser.

so, yes I want all miui gone.. but I really like the second space, dont want to lose that, and like has been said, ignoring the miui bit it is a nice bit of software

Hello Guys,
Could someone please tell me which Oreo ROM is good for daily use and has better battery than others?
Cheers.
You forgot to ask if VOLTE works
I've been using Nitrogen-OS Oreo 8.1 for the last 2 months and I can say it's one of the best Oreo ROMs out there right now
Pixel Experience 8.1 Check this link https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/development/rompixel-experience-8-1-aosp-oreo-mr1-t3716727
Check Flashing Guide here https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=75428644&postcount=1280
So far, its best one when compared with Nitrogen OS & other oreo roms. I haven't faced any problems so far.
Definitely, Nitrogen os 8.
Go for it, I flashed it about 3 days ago and I just loved it. It is also very Power Friendly as well.:victory::good:

Just go for Pixel Experience as I am using it as daily driver about a month and I have never thought of changing my the rom as it is one of the best stable custom rom I have ever seen in these two years! Just got 2-3 random reboots due to incompatible GCam apps but after installing proper supported GCam, the camera become completely stable and no more reboots occured. Just go for it. Completely buttery smooth even after a month and customizations.

i used to change rom in every 2/3 day... because i was never satisfied... but for almost 1month i stuck on pixel rom...i guess there is no oreo rom with great battery backup as i am a super heavy user and i almost all the time use 3g internet and play a lots of games...but there is something magical in pixel rom...just love this rom ?
Is the Pixel ROM more close to stock Android Oreo?
Coz i checked the chain log for Nitrogen ROM and it has so much of stuff going on with it...i don't like too many customizations...more close to stock means more stable.
Also, how stable is the Camera with Pixel ROM?

Tried hard but no bug found. Stock camera works perfect but I'm using port for portrait mode that also is stable af. No fast charging on stock kernel, changed to franco, a bit better battery backup on it too, but not as smooth as it was before...
FireHound is a good option!

I'll Suggest that you can go for Pixel Experience For Poco F1 and check the review of rom on YouTube, it's the most stable and most preferred rom for daily USAGE. Its ok to hate MIUI as its heavily skinned that's not good for those who prefer stock.
I suggest baikal os. One of the most stable rom.Great battery life and great performance. Give it a try

Have you used crDroid? I am tempted to switch over to pixel experience as I dont really use any of the extra customisations that come with crDroid. I was on LineageOS, but only switched to crDroid as the signal quality wasnt great on Lineage, and crDroid had the signal fix on it. Im guessing PE has the signal fix applied?
I am similar like you, i dont like miui, and i want fully stable rom with minimum custmization, can we make group on telegram? People like us who want to stay close to aosp, and stability
Msg me on telegram https://t.me/MrNohara
Im looking to flash reloaded caf, as its close to aosp, and dev assured that he wont add any more features

@falconhossam1, I tested few roms on poco board. And in my opinion AOSiP is the king at this moment (at least for me of course) you can try it. Derp Kernel and theme Black AF out of the box is great
Someone please tell me off for asking this in the wrong place !! I have a similar question as I also want to change from Miui (10.1.0.3 PEJMIFI) and everything I have read seems to suggest the new PE rom is very stable and I would certainly switch. BUT... my question is.... is there a guide on how to flash the PE rom from a clean factory Miui rom, and how to return to the same factory state including OTA if after some time I decide to. Thanks for all responses.
crDroid if you want a bunch of features on a stable rom. Havoc-OS is my next favorite, but it doesn't get updates as often.

Fair enough, I'll stick with it then It has been solid since I made the switch, only the first build I tried had some issues with the notch and notifications icons, and they got fixed on the next one.
Has any1 tried RRemix? I remember it to be a beast for gaming on my previous devices. Is it still the same on the poco?

Sorry Never Tried crdroid but Instead Of flashing Pixel Experience I checked many reviews of youtube and all suggested That nitrogen OS is as stable as Pixel rom with Many features so I installed NITROGEN OS and Man I just didn't faced any mic issue or net speed reduction its Just Fantastically buttery smooth and perfect. I love it.
---------- Post added at 12:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:47 PM ----------
Believe me, These 2 roms(Pixel Experience & Nitrogen OS) are most stable as far as I saw many many youtube reviews. Just before Flashing the pixel rom I thought I will face lack of Thermal battery saving mode that extremely saves battery SO I checked many reviews for Nitrogen OS and I flashed it, Man its damn stable not a single issue for me I rooted with magisk and All banking apps are working. Too. And PUBG works awesome as it would in my MIUI. So go for Nitrogen If you want stability + feature and go for Pixel experience for Pure Stable Pixel Experience with lack of advance features.
hey guys..
this is Anil.
i have tried almost every ROM available for our poco device.
but i found out they all have some kind of issues associated with them like, overheating, lags a lot while playing pubg, network issue, internal audio in gameplay is not available, even i have tried xiaomi.eu rom but still got the same problem as it also overheats a lot.
so finally i installed the official global stable ROM, and now i have everything i needed with the phone. best gameplay experience with awesome battery backup (9+ hours of SOT on normal usage).
so if anyone wants to install custom rom just for the gaming and battery backup so i would suggest you to stick with the global stable rom (10.3.4. update is beast).
Thank You.

no i am not rooted yet, and yes i don't any touch issue with this new update.
but yes sometimes while playing pubg my trigger seems to be stuck and i continuously shooting than i have to touch the trigger again to stop it.
what could it be?
Aside from the rom, can you guys suggest a good kernel with great battery life? I'm not quite satisfied with the built in kernel with NOS.
Stock MIUI is the most stable ROM and always will be.
Second most stable would be the custom MIUI mods (Mi-Room, Xiaomi.eu, etc) with varying degrees.
Third most stable is probably some GSI.
Least stable is basically every other custom ROM. Their kernels seem to be based on newer CAF/Linux tags and the devs seem to have reverted Xiaomi-specific fixes and optimizations.
Custom ROM's aren't ready for daily use yet, IMO. Depends what you use your phone for, though.
I have seen some of the 600 series processor phones with performance in custom roms better than the stock rom.
What's going on with POCO?
I can't directly ask a developer because there is always someone against me saying ' it's his free time hobby that he is giving us time, you should not ask any question regarding his work '. Ok that's fine! But performance issue only with POCO, I don't get it.........
I hate MIUI because of it's User experience, so I search for ROMs with stock experience but I didn't find any , forget about getting better than MIUI but same as Miui's performance. It's no more snapdragon 845 phone anymore with custom roms............. Go compare with other Manufacturers..
Yeah, I kind of see what you mean... Some custom ROMs have pretty bad performance compared with stock for whatever reason. I've noticed that the only ROM faster than MIUI on Poco is OxygenOS. It's been my daily driver for a while now. Nitrogen is also quite good as far as I remember... I try to stay away from custom ROMs because of the unsatisfying performance. I only switch between MIUI and OOS now.

I have used it bro, it's really fast but the only thing it lacks is the touch response or smoothness like MIUI.
If it was I wouldn't had any complaints...
i dont get it, where is it faster? what kind of performance? im using aosip, its much smoother than miui and is totaly fast, no complains at all. i also tried oos, miui eu, mi room, linage, pe, havoc, crdroid, nos and few more others, none had "bad performance". can you tell me what exactly do you mean? i experinced laggs and stuttering only on miui

Which rom do you find fastest? I do not want to try each and every rom

laugh as much as you want, i know what i see. i was using miui for months, now since february on aosip, just love it. miui eu still as primary on multirom, aosip, oos, los, pe and nos as secondary. but most time using aosip, also the only one secured with fingerprint and code.

Crdroid is better than MIUI imo. Especially in the latest updates.
I'm using some magisk modules for increasing smoothness, but all in all its performance is over the top out of the box.
P.S. Hold in mind that the phones you're mentioning are probably older than the Poco.
As time goes by, devs fix bugs and embed new things even from other devices to make the phone run better. So time works in favor of the custom ROMs.

The good thing of MIUI is performance (although as i said, crdroid performs even better imo).
Smoothness is non-existent. The first month i was using MIUI i had started wandering why i bought the Poco, since my 3 year old zuk z2 felt smoother.
The lags and the stuttering are everywhere except the menus.
I'm using LineageOS and I don't notice a difference in performance in day-to-day use. Perhaps in gaming MIUI might be better, but you kinda expect that due to optimization.
Maybe because of the kernel?? Im also a fan of miui because of the custom.kernel that works great on it...
hi everyone, i am still using MIUI global rom. current version 10.3.4.
i do have interest to unlock my phone and switch to other rom. but two things in my concern, the native miui camera app and esim.
in asia, we do have one app that will use the built in esim feature , am i still getting this benefit from custom rom too?

Well regarding the native Miui camera, you can install the port on your custom rom but few features wont work such as 120fps and 240fps slow mo and few more. But all basic features will work such as taking a photo or recording video.
Sadly, No idea about esim though.

I know exactly what you are talking about. Well the only reason why one can feel custom roms to be less snappy than MIUI is because of the optimizations that MIUI has for POCO F1 for it's touch response. You must be knowing about touch response issue of Poco F1 and Xiamoi has done lot's of optimization not only in it's vendor files but also in the MIUI for Poco itself to rectify the issue as much as possible. And this is something AOSP roms or any other roms lack because mostly AOSP roms are universal made and minor tweaks are done to make it work with a certain device so level of per device tweak is pretty less.
Now if you directly compare the performance of a custom rom (I am using Pixel Experience) with MIUI, both open apps at almost the same time and both are fluid. I don't care about the benchmarks because that really doesn't define anything related to personal experience.
So despite knowing this factor, I went for custom rom because I felt like Poco F1 does not deserve that crappy and cheap MIUI experience which is on offer. And Pixel Experience has been a great rom till date.
I think you should give a try to custom roms such as Oxygen OS or any good AOSP based rom such as Pixel Experience (my recommendation) or Nitrogen OS. Also Lineage OS is very good but its too much basic for me.
I just cant agree with this topic, I can feel that every custom rom developed here was amazing. I noticed the most biggest improvement for custom rom was it feel so snappy compared to stock rom. And i managed to squeeze more battery life than stock rom. But one thing stock rom for sure to win was, its picture taken using its stock camera app. I know we can use google camera, but when using aosp camera it the quality was too bad, so much difference from stock miui camera.
What about .eu miui stable releases? They have rectified most of the annoyances of miui global. Anyone tried it?
If someone from asia (india) uses .eu miui rom, will everything work properly without any region related issues?

Maybe stop flashing random Magisk modules and other crap which interferes with the system.
I've never had any issues with MIUI, it was always smooth and performing very well out of the box.

I have to assume that you cannot read English very well.
I mentioned that i use magisk modules that IMPROVE my experience with my CURRENT ROM.
I am getting better performance and better SOT than with MIUI.
To clarify things, I was using MIUI with locked bootloader and without any modifications.

The improvements are slightly noticable, but it's not just a placebo (at least on crdroid).
+They don't affect the battery negatively.
Suggest a stable also less customize opt. ROM

Oh. I meant nevermind as I had wrongly posted in this thread.
Anyway crDroid offers a ton of customization and yet is very stable. Currently on Q builds (6.4). I have used crDroid for the past 7 months without any notable issue. No random reboots,system hanging or app freezing/crashes. Performance is very good and battery backup is excellent.

U r giving me opposite suggestion.
I just want a minimal ROM.

At present pretty much any rom based on Android 10 is stable.
Reloaded OS - performance and battery backup is great as it is a CAF rom. It has minimal but useful customization.
Pixel Experience - There are two variants. One is normal (just stock pixel phone) and the other is plus edition which offers some useful customization. Built-in kernel is okay-ish so better flash another kernel.
Pixel Rom - Authentic Pixel Port. Change kernel for better performance.
Arrow OS
Roms with customization overhaul - Evolution X, Crdroid, Aosip Derpfest, Corvus, Havoc OS and many others.
always prefer try every rom but here's some suggesstion for you
pixel experience because it is very stable and no bloatware also lineage os but for now the android 10 version is not that stable so choose your drug.
Ancient os

Fewer customisations don't necessarily mean better experience on other aspects.
This being said, PIXEL EXPERIENCE has the fewest customisations of all. It's stable too.
