Best Custom ROM For Redmi Note 3? - Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers

There are so much Custom ROMS for Redmi Note 3[QC] . But all of those are much similar to each another there's nothing new in there, not even any unique features. SO THIS IS A REQUEST TO DEVELOPERS TO PLEASE MAKE SOMETHING NEW & UNIQUE. I KNOW THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE OUT THERE WHO WANT THIS, I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS ISSUE
PLUS I MUST SAY ONE THING THE JOB THAT DEVS ARE DOING FOR US I MEAN LIKE PORTING ROMS AND KERNELS, MAKING NEW MODS, FIXING BUGS(WHICH IS REALLY TOUGH) ETC. WITHOUT BEING PAID FOR THEIR TERRIFIC WORK. THAT'S JUST AWESOME AND I AM VERY THANKFUL TO THEM ALL .
And meanwhile if anyone can suggest me a good custom ROM for our Beast RN3[QC] . That would be very thankful:angel::highfive::good:.
Thanx in Advance.

Developers make their rom in their free time without being paid so its really not respectful to demand more when someone is giving you something for free. There are lots of roms for redmi note 3 that you can try many cm based roms, miui roms many custom kernels i havn't tried all of them but its a good thing that so much development happens here.
Now a days You can pretty much add any feature you like to a rom with xposed. So when a dev makes a nice smooth rom be greatful and enjoy what you got for free

Mokee! Release. Notification, FP yet to find bugs and no battery bugs. Nice AOSP style rom. So good I donated to remove ads in mokee center.

i would love to have a stable MM rom... tried some cm12 roms and slim6, all get reboots.
Is Mokee stable?

Can I have the link plz?

There's no such thing as "best rom". Intresting to see peoples comments on various roms though.
I'm currently on bliss, and it's f-ing awesome, especialy paired with arcus for theaming joy.

RR 5.7.0 and 5.7.1 have the -2% or 50% battery bug, both of them.
I tested in 2 units RedMi Note 3 Pro SnapDragon 3GB 32GB and both of them show the same behavior with ResurrectionRemix 5.7.0 and 5.7.1:
After rebooting for first time battery is stuck in -2% or 50%. Otherwise the phone works well, battery actually charges.
If you are luck you will get the 50% instance of the issue, that only results in the uncertainty of "how much juice do I have left?".
If you get the -2%, additionally to the uncertainty, you will have all the annoyances related to the phone thinking it has no-juice: popups, no flash, etc...
If you can live with those, RR is fine and stable.

Since putting Mokee on haven't bothered with anything else, hell I even donated.
IR, notifications, FP all working 76000+ Antutu. Flashed with GApps.
Nice AOSP feel, some extras nothing over the top and stable.

I agree with you. All of the roms are the same. Even mooke isn't much different from CM these days. DU is just a copy of RR. All of them are the same, nothing unique.
I also would like to see something amazing.
Sent from Note 3, Xiaomi Redmi Note 3.

If you want something different you can try flymeos from Meizu. They create official flyme for redmi note 3 snapdragon.
http://www.flyme.cn/firmwarelist-51.html#7
Still beta but ok for daily usage. Imo, quite bloated but its UI is smoother than MIUI, fp work, IR blaster work, gps lock fast, battery comparable with cm/miui.
Minus are a little animations glitch, some not translate to English.

New roms for honor 5x....

Ok, my question is neither a disrespect to any dev working on the device nor i decline all their hard work which they put in bringing us cm and twrp etc... This is simply a question...
After cm, will devs work on other roms, to port them to our phone e.g aokp or pacman....
Sorry if i hurt anyones feelings.. I know u guys are working hard....

Broken and Dirty Unicorns
Du and broken are both supposed to be coming to the 5x after we get official marshmallow. Those are about the only 2 I care about so IDK about any others. Broken already has lollipop for it but they aren't going to release it to the public until it's upgraded to mm.

Broken os and dirty unicorns... A quick Google Search will tell you all you need to know
I hope some custom roms some through fast, the stock really sucks a** and it's just not Android from UX or it's functions! Such crap OS, hell, can't even use basic root apps effectively (like TB) or install straight forward mods (v4A for ex)....all things either screw up the system or just don't work! The CM build by crpalmer seems to be working for most, but it lack fingerprint support something of a factor that made me buy this phone in the first place

Stock isn't too terrible if you use a different launcher. I have v4a and tibu both running great, Just took a little work. As far as dev names and stuff like that... Come on guys you have all the worlds knowledge at your fingertips use it! I won't spoon feed it to you
I'm would love to have Exodus on this. The aosp beauty like omni... And omni too. These best these days are Exodus and omni
Without the correct sources and binaries i'm not seeing any sort of custom ROMs become stable enough for daily use. Even Lollipop ROMs are currently bug-ridden due to Honor releasing ****ty code.

Still not as bad as the source for the Kirin SoC in the Honor 4x, That was an "amazing" experience.

Yea, thanks for the hint though i love all the tinkering I do, I missed the alternative launcher option! I installed Nova and it's much better than the stock Huawei home launcher.
Also, on the V4A, somehow it refuses to work at times and having an "abnormal" status for the driver. Uninstalled it completely now and flashed the Dolby Atmos, seems like my phone has suddenly come alive when it comes to speaker quality and music on headphones.......way better than what I was getting with V4A.

I was having the same problem with the "abnormal driver", then I got the selinux mode changer app and set it to change it to permissive on every boot... Viola! And yes it is much better with a different launcher. I'm running Google Now launcher and now that we have xposed I'm using xposed gel settings to get it just the way I want

Dirty unicorns builders for nougat on honor 5x?
Its months ago , now moved to devs-base

Which is the most favored ROM for OPX? And what makes it different from the rest?

Firstly I'll apologise for making such a thread. Every developer gives their best to make their ROMs, but then there are normal people like me, who doesn't know anything about ROM development :3 if our phones get bricked, we're screwed. This is why I'm creating this thread. Comment away! Thanks in advance
This is why we say do some reading before jumping into flashing and try new things.
I suppose you may not be familiar.
I would have given you a long descriptive answer but I think that will break the essence of testing and some ethics of rom development possibly.
I would say - Start reading the development threads initial posts and try them out. They're quite helpful in finding out how stable it may or may not be.
On the lighter side of it : Ashwin's CM13 or Temasek's CM based ROM might be your best bet.... But like I said earlier there are other ROMS as well.

What is more stable, Ashiwn's or Temasek's CM13?
I planned to ask a similar question about what ROM is least buggy so I can use it as daily driver. (I'm most of my time with no internet away from home)
This weekend I spend most of the time reading those topics of the ROMs and haven't decided which one to flash.

i'd say ashwins, have used both and for now, ashwins has 0 bugs (FOR ME) people are complaining about background noise in calls, they hear the people behind yu as clear as you self etc.etc. but yeah, now you have my opinion.
Hit that Thanks if it deserves it.
for me ashwins is the best also and i have tried most of them.
For me (only my opinion), stock oss is best. Although i hear complaints, personally i don't have any issues. It has been my daily driver since xmas i bought this phone.
Really depends. I recommend you give both AOKP and AOSParadox a try. Both great ROMs.
There really isn't a best.... It depends on ehi you are and how you use your device
Loving the color os experience.. Tried almost all the MM roms available for opx but came back to LP as it is more stable for my daily driver. I need Bluetooth which is better in cm 12.1.
Color os has gr8 battery life and loads of customization... Installation is little tricky though.

If u want smoothness !
After installing gapps and other daily apps , I faced lags in all ROMs except
Purity ROM built 8/4(MM)
Cm12.1 built 11 (LL)
With ecofix!
Acc to me these are the stablest for me !
I use xposed heavily .
I was a bit disappointed after OOS 2.2.1 because Bluetooth is not fix. But after reading this thread, I would more install a third-party app instead of flashing another ROM. OK OOS is not perfect and has less customization than Cyanogen but stability and good camera is a must-have for me. Now, I never flashed my OPX.
Exodus bcoz it use layer + opendelta (no need to fladh full zip when update come) + nightly!

I prefer Temasek's rom. It's pretty much stable as I haven't encountered any considerable Issues so far.

I don't know what to go now, CM customization or go for AOSP ROM and customize it with Xposed. I probably install xposed on both one so idk....

Is ashwins being actively developed? In the thread it's seems stagnant and no updates in the changelog for a while.
mokee coz of aegis (+ the rom is rock stable & smooth)
CrDroid with Blue Spark Kernel. Almost no bugs , pure AOSP experience. Cyanogen Tweaks. The way an Android is meant to be IMO
MoKee has been pretty good to me, and Aegis is an insane battery saver. I don't like to have too much bloat when it comes to Xposed and such so having just one great saver is awesome.
I do want to try out other ROMs though, and ColorOS might be my next stop.

Best OPT ROM as Daily Driver. Android 6|OOS3

Folks, I know there are similar threads but those threads are too old and all ROMS have evolved a lot since then. This discussion is especially for new marshmallow roms.
The main idea is to get the vibe of users preference and of course to determine the best daily driver .
Parameters:
:good: User Interface resposiveness/Performance
:good: Fingerprint Scanner Speed
:good: Camera
:good: Battery

I know but lets see, the thing is I tried Exodus and Sky Dragon, but soon some or the other issue bugged my and I returned to OOS3.0 Beta . With so may ROMS at-least with this users can get an idea of what to try.

You forgot all AOSP Rom , like Tipsy, Validus, Tesla, Broken....
remove OOS from the list hahah
I tested oos3 for about 3 weeks, but the battery was worse than oos2.2.1. After that i used cm13 with Boeffla Kernel, wasnt that fluid as oos3, but battery lasted longer. Now using exodus and it's incredibly fast! Much faster than oos3, battery lasts longer too. @TheCrazyLex did really a fantastic job. Hope he stays that crazy to make the perfect rom
Fingerprint is nearly the same, maybe a little bit slower, camera the same, you can also use oxygen camera zip.

You can try Hydrogen OS and any other ROMS based on Oxygen OS or Hyderoges OS. I am using skydragon based on OOS3.0 the FP sensor is equally fast.

AEX and Slim Or Any N Rom's Stable

Can anyone help me to choose between AEX and Slim?
What is your reason why I should choose (it)?
What about performance and battery?
Does Slim use a small update? Not one full ROM?
Or can you convince me to go with another ROM? And what is your reason for that?
Actually I wait DU / Los-Official but for DU is very difficult. And I hope that Los will soon get Official.
On the other hand, I am very happy with the return of PA and,or GzR_Family. However I see it does not get Official.
Why do I see Official? Because to me that Official is a very convincing development to use. I do not like to move from one to another with fast time.
What about DU? From the first I was so confident with DU. However I do not expect much for other developers who have been busy.
Thanks for your attention, forgive me with language, purpose, and more.

I went through the process you are going through now, trying to decide which custom ROM to move to.
After drawing up a shortlist, I tried Slim 2 days ago. Slim was perfectly fine. Battery performance seemed better than MultiPro 8.2.5.0 (MM) which I had been using. I installed OctOS yesterday. There is much similarity between OctOS and Slim, but I find OctOS more to my liking (for one, it is not so "slim" as Slim, which IMHO, was too minimalistic - but of course, that it how it got its name). I am still testing OctOS, and will give it another day or two.
From my brief experience with both, each of them is pretty good, fluid, etc. I could not see much objective difference, and I do not think that one is "better" than the other - much depends on individual preferences relating to "eye candy" (ie, the "look and feel" of the ROM). If OctOS passes all the tests of what I need, I will probably stay with it. But I do have a full nandroid backup of Slim, in case I change my mind.
The reason I abandoned MIUI is because of my concerns that various things in MIUI might be "phoning home". I will not return to MIUI. So, for me, it is Slim or OctOS. In my view, the core OS in AOSP and LOS based ROMs is not going to be very different. The rest is about eye candy. I don't think I will test any other custom ROM (life is too short ...).

Ohh..Thanks a lot of time you spend.
In your experience above, I see you are not talking about AEX? Why it? Have you not tried yet?
With respect to Oct-os, I think my choice still falls to Slim, helped by your summary above. Because I'm not too close to (sort of Octos, AIM, DnD, and some others). For base Los, I prefer Mokee or Aicp and last RR (I never tried for this). And I've been using Aokp for a long time.However, all ROMs are on the basis of Los, I am not satisfied because Kernel-3rd is not available yet. I do not know since when I rely heavily on (dt2w and kcal).
Finally, I would be very happy if in the next two days, you will describe your experience with Octos.

Why do not you talk about RR? With many features available? And I think there are many users here using RR?
Not yet any rock solid stable AOSP rom for our mido. All of them have some quirks here and there. I've tried RR, Lineage OS, Slim, Paranoid, AEX and XOSP. Slim is the best for me. It's so clean and minimalistic. When all bugs get squashed, it will be the perfect choice. Of course ymmv.
@vyvy I have not tried AEX. It did not make my shortlist (which was Halogen, Legend, OctOS, Slim, and Viper). I am sure that it is perfectly fine - it just didn't make my shortlist (the problem is too many ROMs to choose from - this is a very good problem). As I said, Slim is perfectly fine. It met all my requirements (after my own favorite 3rd party apps were installed) - which is why I have kept a full nandroid backup of it.
I have had plenty of time to test OctOS. It also meets all my requirements after all my favorite apps were installed. The final test was hands-free bluetooth phone calls in my car. I believe I will stay with OctOS.
@mirosz Unfortunately, I am unable to make a list of what was missing in Slim, because I did not keep records. As far as I can remember, there was no feature that was missing - just one or two apps that I expected to find in a custom ROM (which TBH, I cannot remember what they were). It was not a big problem, and I would have happily stayed with Slim. However, I decided to try another one on my shortlist, which was OctOS. And I do like it more.
BTW, in all my ROMs, I always replace the default launcher with Nova ...

Well, there is this 3rd-party kernel.
Brother, use xperience ROM (CAF Based) or ANY CAF Based ROM
its way faster than any LOS based rom
Trust me.

Well, there is this 3rd-party kernel.

Okay, thanks brother. I will try Slim first.
To be honest I only have one phone, and the only thing to do every day, even when I work. Of course I will be careful in choosing, because I also do not really like MIUI, I can not write more details, that's just the fact that.
Yes, brother. I read the comment there that the kernel is for now only support for AOSP-based ROM. I will follow it, and hopefully the future will be many more, available kernels

Lastly I use CAF base, it's with Citrus and Halogen.I think you are right to say so. I'm sorry, but for now, I'm not ready to try it it's because, i see some CAF base ROM is not too many users, and i think for bugs and patching will be very slow.

Then how are the two? AEX and Slim? Can you convince me to move to Slim?

I have experienced longer boot times and occasional lags on AEX. Slim is fast and fluid for me. It is for people who just want a clean and empty rom with few carefully selected extra additions. It's not for RR lovers that desire every extra functionality.

Xperience is super smooth, one of the best among all the custom roms that I have tried.
The only gripe that I had with it was that fingerprint scanner did not work for me. I'm accustomed to waking up the device using the scanner so it became a deal-breaker for me.
Based on recommendations in this thread, I'm trying out OctOS and liking it a lot. It is definitely smoother than RR and AEX. The other rom that I really liked was Legend. Its pretty good and stable in terms of performance.
After a week with OctOS, I have moved back to Slim. The main reason is that Slim seems to have much better battery performance during idle/sleep time (SOT is not too different). But there is another reason - issues with WhatsApp notifications when using OctOS (messages not being received until I actually open WhatsApp) - installing an app "PNF Root" helped somewhat, but things were still erratic and unpredictable. This second reason may just be my own isolated experience, because I have not yet seem any other OctOS user complaining about this problem. However, for me, it was a real pain in the backside. So, I think I will now stay with Slim.
Yeah!

Question Will there be custom roms?

I am thinking about importing this phone but i wanna be sure to buy a phone that is generally well supported regarding custom roms. So far the only custom rom i see for this phone is the xiaomi.eu rom which can only be flashed via fastboot.
So my questions are:
1. Do you think it is worth buying this phone over the oneplus 8 pro (not only regarding specs but also regarding moddability)?
The specs would be nice to have but moddability is more important to me.
2. When do you guys think will major custom roms start to support this phone?
i am coming from the Axon 7 who is known as a "moddable" Phone. There are a lot of Custom Roms for this Device and i am a "flasher" too. But with the Mix 4 this is not needed. The Xiaomi.EU Rom Stable is the best solution i think because i like the MIUI.
i don't think that it is the best "moddable" Phone but it is a great Phone always.

Some custom ROMS in China supported this phone.But Mi 11 ultra is the best.
I consider myself picky when it comes to roms and for the last 4 years I used something very close to aosp. However I fully agree that xiaomi.eu is a very good and I don't feel any need to change it with anything else. That's even more impressive when you consider what a piece of trash is the original CN rom.
Of course more choice is always welcome, but the one option we have right now is close to flawless.
I've always used custom ROMs, GSI, LineageOS, etc.
I got my Mix4 this week thinking there was no way I was gonna use MIUI, but ... gotta say, once you customise it a bit - it works pretty well!
I got my Mix4 and Pad5 about a month or to ago and im kinda really fed up with miui, on the Pad5 there are a few gsis that work really well, but for the mix4 there unforuneatly isnt any aosp style rom, but i really hope there will be some day, im going tonbe flashing it the instant one comes available.
The opinions on this subject are quite split in the middle... as far as i know, they are working on it to create an AOSP-based alternative. I submitted for testing.
Before the Mix 4, i had my Mix 2 with Lineage almost constantly, since MIUI is just not my taste.
A aosp based rom would be awesome. Where can you submit for testing?
I'm on weekly xiaomi.eu MIUI13 A12 and it is amazing. Came from google pixel 6 pro. that was an unusable phone.
Same as me I just made the switch from the P6P on Wednesday. Got a bit bored with it.
For those asking about custom ROMs if you join the mix 4 official telegram page you'll find the info.
