Best Xperia Z2 Nougat ROM - Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

What is the best nougat rom for z2? I want stability, performance and everything works. I saw Resurrection Remix, CarbonROM, CypherOS and Lineage OS. Which is the best? Now I have eXistenZ Marshmallow and performance is not perfect, but I like original Xperia look and I want something looking similar to this. What I should to install?

the only one nougat rom has Xperia Interface . here... but it outdated . but still okay ..

Once upon a time custom rom used to be better in stability and usability than stock rom.
But those days are long gone.
Now a days custom rom is just about upgrading and adding fancy stuff.
No single custom rom can beat stock rom in stabilty/performance/battery etc now.
I've tried them all. But now I'm back to stock with restored TA.
Don't plan to go on a custom rom again.
YMMV.

It's not true for EX performance of oreo roms is far better than stock roms
I can't say anything about battery life but i don't think that the deference will be so much

I meant to write stability/usability/battery.
It's true that performance is slightly better in nougat/oreo than stock MM.
But is the performance gain due to "tweaks" and "optimization" done by the cookers? No, it is because the improvements done by Google.
Nougat rom still has the mic issue.
Battery charging takes twice the time than stock.
Battery life is worse than stock.
And frankly, I really don't notice any performance difference in stock MM. it is noticeable only if I do bench.
Like I said, YMMV. So you should try out first before taking a decision.

Some battery friendly ROMS ?

I need some battery friendly rom for my D6503 can anyone suggest some ?
the 100% stock one
My personal experience,
Best in performance and battery and very close to stock ... would be Slim Rom from @Wajk
Its been ported for our Z2 by @RaKesh

Yeah maybe you are right. I'm currently on Pre rooted stock 5.1.1 (.232) and I'm getting 6hrs SOT with more than average usage.

I usually get 5+ SOT with this Rom, however i do use Androplus Kernel V72 with Alucard gov & Intelliplug.
Maybe give it try and see if you like it.
KK was very fine too... If you don't mind installing a 4.X android then you could try one of these, like the kk-version of eXistenz .
( I just kept the kk-Carbon-ROM on my sd-card because of this. First, it was just because no LP of carbon appeared, then I kept it because it ran fine and I think the dl-link is dead now if I remember correctly )
Purex 9&10 gave me decent battery life too.
But I am a user that has BT, location, Wi-Fi, mobile-data always on, so your experience may differ if you use your phone otherwise.
Mx ROM v8.0.0 cc
Great battery life and good all-round ROM

Best Nougat ROM for Condor

It's been 5 or 6 months since our little beast got the Nougat update thanks to our developers who are doing amazing job with our 3 year old device.
I want to know Is there any Nougat ROM which is absolutely stable, and with great battery life like MM ROMs.
Since Xposed for Nougat is not ready at the moment, Greenify and Amplify are not that effective. I am not a flasholic who try every ROM so plz suggest me the absolute best one of them you use. It will also help many other users who want a stable Nougat ROM.
PS: I have tried CM14.1 , RR 5.8.0
Now back to RR 5.7.4 MM

Every ROM is not perfect. I will only be able to suggest you according to your priority.
If you need best battery life & performance then try Cardinal, Aoscp, DU, Aosp-CAF
If you want decent battery life & performance with lots of customization then try RR (by anderson), AEX and LOS (it will give you a better performance but you won't get Theme support).

Cardinal was the best MM ROM I've used in terms of battery and stability but is not for Nougat yet.
I just want a stable ROM with everything working fine(including ROOT) and good battery life( upto 5 hours of SOT) and can be used for a like long time.

Cardinal will be back soon. You can try Citrus ROM made by the same team. Be aware you won't get updates soon. https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=745425885120712605
I would suggest you to go for DU or AOSCP both are great.
The latest DU rom is https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=529152257862719486
And for aoscp wait as within a week you will get updated v3.6.2 on their official site.

From what I have experienced Lineage OS by smartass is pretty fast but it still has some bugs (random reboots,whatsapp call etc).
As a 2nd option you can use MDK v5 rom by lakamel, it is pretty good rom aswell.

If you want only gaming then stock rom of your is best
The best rom is yur stock rom
Gaming
I'd look for a stock custom, or built up stock rom/kernal, I gave lineage a go, was largely unimpressed with everything but the shear speed. There are stock roms close to that fast, I play plenty of the 3d racers, action, and rpg's on mine without issue. I agree with stock, but stock doesn't have to be basic, or slow.

What Custom Kernel Are You Using?

So, there are some custom kernels available for the Poco and I just want to ask the community which of them are you using and why?
Franco kernel.. ever since its 1st release up.to thw latest r17 release.. simply smooth.. fluid for gaming..no hangs or lags or hiccups what so ever.. even though it doesnt give you a high antutu score. Only about 275-280k.. this kernel is stable. And battery friendly without hogging too much battery
Derp Kernel, simply, clean, great battery life and overall feels really smooth I can tell.
I'm coming from FrancoKernel too, and I was getting worse battery life, besides, when I flashed Derp Kernel I felt the device smoother than before with FK, maybe this is a placebo effect, maybe, everyone should give it a try.
Derp or sphinx???
Shadow is good but most of the kernels for poco are

I actually don't flashed any kernel but With my current daily driver Nitrogen OS I got NitroKernel + which gives me actually better battery than Stock kernel when using thermal mode in Nitrogen os settings that help me greatly. I will say try this nitrogen rom with its own kernel and I'll say you'll never need to look for any othe kernel.

+1 for Nitrogen and Nitro Kernel. Stable rom, great kernel. I used sphinx before, also stable and great battery life. But after last update, I'm too lazy to flash another kernel.

I can't choose a rom

Hi, i can't choose a Rom, i can't decide which is the best Rom that are highly customizable, low battery drain and stable with the latest kernel. Can you recommend any rom?
Nothing is best my friend. it's up to you. for good customization, you can go with HavocOS or DotOS. and for good battery backup use Dark Ages kernel.

I really like SyberiaOS and AOSP Extended, although AEX's maintainer will change soon so idk about that in future
According to me the best custom rom is XIAOMI.EU rom.
