I've tested too, it has a lot of bugs and it's smooth until you open 3 apps.

Hi there,
I recommend using Slimsaber 4.4.4 (Kitkat). You can use the latest greekdragon build which has Isorec (Isolated recovery support required for TWRP) in-built with the kernel. It is one of the most stable AOSP ROMs I've tested and battery life is excellent.

Well, our device is old and has low specifications, so it doesn't support great multi tasking, for example: when you are using Facebook and messenger pop up at the same time, it lags very much, after all, it's an old phone, but it's still my favorite

I'm using CM13 and multitasking and stability is better.

Maybe it depends on the apps installed, for me same apps in 6.0.1 runs smoother in 7.1.1

Excited to try this ROM. If you could release nightly builds with commits from Grarak etc., this ROM would be golden. I'll post soon about my experience with it.

about time that somebody puts and end to that and the worst is that it's not a solution but just a workaround which will keep many people to go for the real thing which is troubleshooting the entire setup. as we all know there a few but as compared to the entire community not THAT many having thouse issues and alone the fact it's always the same group of people hints to an at least part-factor on their side. on guy even posted it works in the office but not at home, that tells it all IMO
Just a heads up that this rom likes to reboot for me when I get a phone call. So that's a thing it does lol

I've got this issue on the last Temasek!
hey guys.,.,this is a great ROM however, is there a work around on how to prolong battery life? It drains too fast in this rom compare to other CM13 roms. Thanks...

My tester didn't face it....But i can assure you that this a commong bug from CM side ( happened after the 6.0.1_r22 merge from cm ) and should be resolved soon.

I can't comment about battery life..But all CM13 roms are based on same cyanogenmod source and hence it can't make a difference ( just that my build has 4-5 features extra over the CM source )
@Santhosh M: Extra features of this ROM looks promising.
Will soon try it on my device.
Loved your work when I had Yureka.

Priority notifications button
Hi, I've tested this rom the last week and I couldn't adjust the priority states to the positions of the left button. In this rom there's 4 priority states and the button has only 3 positions. In other roms this is adjusted with only alarms, priority only and all. Does anyone know how to adjust this feature in this rom?

I am currently using Crdroid rom. Latest build just fixed the tristate keys and gestures and HDR issue. On earlier build, rom was stable, but currently i am experiencing data bug. Mobile data is not stable. I have to restart the device every time to enable data.

Yes. I have tested it. HDR video everything is working. Just data bug. I hope developers fix it soon.
CrDroid is even good, but I prefer Xperience over its stability and could be a perfect daily driver with everything that u want are working.
Cyanogenmod 14.1 by ashwin007 works really well. HDR isn't working yet and I sometimes have to reboot to turn on mobile data, but overall, it's pretty fanastic.
Resurrection Remix 5.8.0 - Most stable out of all with many features, mostly good battery back-up without any modification to kernel. You can give a try.
Anyway, i'm pretty satisfied with the Cypheros (aoscp). Close to Aosp.

[Q] Nitrogen vs Resurrection Remix - Which is better for RN3-Kenzo

I am currently on RR 5.8.3 23rd April build. It is working fine but i feel battery backup is less than MIUI, especially xiaomi.eu.
I have heard that battery backup and Camera are better in Nitrogen but customizations are better in RR. Also, as per my experiance RR has proven to be more stable than Nitrogen, although I used Nitrogen a long time ago. Can anyone suggest which one one of these is better for kenzo?
I am trying to avoid MIUI as it is too much buggy, even the stable ROMs.

Go for NOS. Using it personally and got good battery life (around 7 hours).

Stock kernel
NOS with franco kernel and naptime is a great combo!
After long time on NOS I tried AOSP Extended with umang kernel and now it is my favorite rom. Try it, you don't regret it

There's no doubt, A ROM is not good only if it's battery backup is good. If I need a phone only for battery backup, I would go for Nokia 1100.
Only reason im backing off from NOS nd LOS is coz of their frequent updates... Monthly updates are fine with patches...
Btw im using pure nexus with stock kernel... Pretty good battery backup nd performance too...

It's the default theme that comes with Nitrogen OS. If you're talking about the last screenshot, it is EX Kernel Manager app running on dark theme.

Best LAOS/AOSP based ROM

Hi, since there are enough alternatives based on LOS/AOSP, which do you consider to offer most added value to Lineage?
Covered to poll only those that appear regularly updated.
CR-Droid version 3.6 with the double tap to wake kernel gets my vote and I have tried a lot of them. I should add that the battery life is excellent in the few days I have been using it. Don't use version 3.7 it has a few bugs.
Why do we need this kind of poll? Lol.
Some corrections:
AospExtended and PureNexus are based on AOSP instead of LineageOS, where your poll title is "Best Android for IDO based on LineageOS."
Sent from my Redmi 3 using XDA Labs
I know but they still can be better alternative to LOS and still custom ROM similar to LOS

Thanx for suggestion, I'll probably try next build.
Have you experienced any issues with AICP, AOKP or ViperOS?

They are all great roms with different pros and cons. I prefer CR-Droid because it has all the features and customizations I like with great battery life and it's super smooth with a DT2W kernel.
crDroid has one big flaw, it doesn't work together with Xposed framework from PurifyOS (the only working on Nougat atm.)
I tried LineageOS and AICP for now and both can do with Xposed. So my weak vote so far is for AICP.

Try stormguard. It's an over locked kernel. But then also don't expect much from a 2 year old mid Ranger chip
Pixerl Experience and Stormguard worked fine for me. But im on stock again cause of the camera capabilites

I want to post a thread regarding display kernal.....
But when click on send ....I doesn't work please help:crying:
I wonder if changing the DPI and making the screen 720p will help with better gaming performance. I often did this with my Moto X Style and it helped a little bit. My only worry is that apps won't display properly. Probably overkill but still worth it if you play a lot of online games and want better FPS/battery life.
