As mentioned in the title, I'd like to know which is the best custom ROM option right now.
My device: RN3 SE (kate)
Depends on what your idea of "best" is:
Stability, battery life, speed or having the latest Android version.
You can't have them all in one ROM.
Mokee
there is no "best" rom!
each rom is made for people with different needs from a ROM! in stability and being fast most of them are almost the same because all are based on Lineage OS
Right now I stick to xiaomi.eu ROM. Everything works as expected. Lineage ROM suffers several camera and torch bugs.
Tired of trying Roms ?

You can with LineageOS 13 - latest Security-Level - all is running perfect, camera perfect and battery-life is amazing.
I use LOS13 for over a month now and not only one bug found. It is much better than MIUI!

Camera flash bugs?
No, because it uses same source then MIUI! No bugs at all...
I would recommend you Resurrection Remix, if you want features and customisations, but NitrogenOS is also good, it has most stable camera among nougat roms.

I've tried it with 2nd mm build from this month (I can't remember the exact version) and it was fine. Stable, a bit worse battery life than on LP, no lags, few bugs, new features in camera app, but they weren't working in that build.

do not install miui 8 mm , as after that if you want to revert back to any other rom imei is getting lost (even miui 7 is not working)

ohhh....
Miui 8 MM is gr8 flash the current 6.9.28 version.
*Good performance+ram mangement+battery life(sot-7-8hrs).
*No lags or bugs encountered.
*Volte is also working good.
@tezen03 You are acting like noob,do some research before you post anything.
About loosing imei,flash alka twrp and first backup your EFS partition then flash any custom roms.
If you loose your imei or baseband after flashing roms just simply flash back EFS partiton from the twrp backup,it will be restored in matter of seconds.
In My opinion Go for it! :good:

No need to compare , both are good.
The main difference now, People using Miui 8 is the Volte feature.
As i stated above about miui8 everything's gr8 but it has bloatwares .
Contrary to miui8 , RR is custom rom which is based on cm13 with tons of customization option.
-so if you want stock android experience with tons of customization option go for RR It is the best custom rom out there.
-it is also devoid of bloatwares,so you may get more free ram and better battery backup than miui8
-Con for RR at this time is Volte , Because xiaomi hasn't released MM kernel source , So it's not working on RR.
# nonetheless if you like miui and its customization option stick to it
#if you like stock android experience with tons of customization with base of cm13 and a stable daily driver custom rom go for RR.
^^RR i am talking about is "RR official by war machine"
Hope it helps you

Is it buggy?
aospextended
i have been using AospExtended from more than a month. very satisfied.
before that tried almost every rom but has issues. could not continued to use as daily driver.
also realised most of the lineage based roms are buggy and Aosp based are more stable.
no one can give you honest answer. try it for yourself.
i suggest AospExtended by AmolAmrit.
nitrogen is also very stable

Can you please tell the procedure to flash Slim ROM, coming from MIUI 8 stable? There are many guides and I'm not sure which to follow. I don't want to lose imei and stuff. Can you please?
EDIT: Nevermind, flashed it
Unlock bootloader using the official method.
Install TWRP using the official guide on the TWRP website.
To do both of these, watch RootJunky's guide on YouTube.
After you have TWRP installed, put all these files on your phone or memory card. Use Firmware and Goodix Patch from Slim thread only. Use OpenGapps
Boot into TWRP and then make a full backup, then go into Wipe -> Advanced Wipe, wipe System, Data, Cache and Dalvik Cache.
Then go to Install and install these files in this order.
The latest version of Radon Kernel for Nougat, in balanced setting, is recommended for best performance and battery.
- Flash*Firmware
- Flash*Slim 7
- Flash Gapps
- Flash*SuperSU
- Flash*Goodix Patch*(If you have goodix FP)
- Flash*Radon Kernel (Choose Goodix FP, and Balanced settings during installation)
- Reboot and wait for 5-10 minutes.
Hi Guys,
I'm currently using pure nexus rom.
Compared with Lineage OS & Resurrection remix are those ROM more stable?
Which one should i choose between the two?
Are there any difference?
Thanks,
Use Nitrogen OS instead. It's good. Been using for 3 months.
there isn't any nougat rom stable yet
all of them has some sort of bugs
just study well what are you going to flash to be fully aware
For Dirty flash & OTA NOS stable - Pure stability & clean flash wiping data AospEX - RR ruled out - LOS nil customization & no Xposed - Find which one's for you [emoji6]

No why it should lock? I thought only MIUI Roms can lock the bootloader.
But I don't care about it, because I flashed this ROM with locked bootloader. ^^
using RR since 3 months, tried nexus, lineageOS, nitrogen, and all the other roms.
Go for pixel rom smooth and stable some bugs are their like camera and torch but these can be fixed after installing the rom, otherwise u are good to go.
One common bug of video calling is there with stock app which is there in every nougat rom.
If you want the best signal in Nougat, choose a CAF N based rom. I highly recommend AOSiP rom.
Focused on Stability (daily driver).
Tried them all... The most stable (batery+performance) is Lineage OS15.

Best oreo rom by far that I've used is not even on xda. It's alexey711 lineage extended. Smoothest running and has a ton of features. Bluetooth works great. Pretty much a perfect rom. It's on androidfilehost under his directory.

if you are using latest AEX, then please look at the version 5.4 which is stable for daily usage. 5.6 has some problem as it is based on new device tree .
