Crisbal 26s v5c is the most complete modified official rom imho
Stock Indian rom
I've tried many custom ROMs since I have this phone. The Nougat ROMs are pretty fun to use, they have a lot of features that make this devices a bit more enjoyable, they have many bugs that make you throw your phone away though.
Marshmallow ROMs are much more stable and fully functionals, especially the EUI ones. According to my experiences, Cuoco's EUI is one of the best that is available for this device. Which is also my daily driver and I'm very pleased with it.

Could you please tell me how the camera goes on the Cuoco ROM? Slow motion is working? And what about 360º Panorama on the Google Camera, does it come out of focus?
Thanks!
Heyyo, tbh I'd recommend Marshmallow Mokee as the most stable ROM with LineageOS Marshmallow coming second. EUI for me has always been a little too harsh on app killing plus the user interface drives me nuts.

Actually there is no problem with the working of camera. LeEco's camera app is a crap. Try few other cameras. I feel mi camera works better then any.

Heyyo, RR for the Le Max 2 is supported by Andr68rus here on the XDA forums. He maintains the port of RR and it's very customizable and has lots of tweaks for sure, but this thread asked about the most stable ROM which it is not. MM build some people reported issues with audio problems or front facing camera problems in some apps but MM was discontinued.
RR Nougat definitely has lots of work to be done but it has been coming along really nicely but battery life as even andr68rus has stated isn't very good currently on RR N but the ports he maintains based on ASOP don't suffer those same issues. Some people reporting quick charging also not working for them on RR N.
So yes, currently I'd also say RR N is the most popular ROM for the Le Max 2 as it tends to get lots of updates and tweaks but it's not the stablest ROM I've used up to this day.

so, you said, Mokee MM is stable rom for Lemax2 ? any bug you found in that rom ? I will try tomorrow, i need stable rom for work long time before EUI nougat release (maybe they never release )
Okay, so here is my list with the bugs I've found so far in the ROMs you mentioned above.
- Mokee 6.0: the sound quality is not as good as in EUI ones, too loud even at low volume settings and awful in voip. Panorama picture is blured, couldn't make it work. Battery life is lower comparing to EUI's.
The non-EUI based ROMs share the same bugs (although the sound issue supposed to be solved in the latest AOKP marshmallow, I haven't checked it yet)
- RR Nougat: everything above + camera is bad in general. Most of camera features such as slow motion, 4K recording etc. are not working. The IDLE battery drain is way higher than in MM ROMs. (Google Camera HDR+ only worked with darkobas kernel for me, but I could use slow motion, panorama mode, everything).
- Cuoco 92: everything is working, haven't found any bugs. Camera is fully functional, it's the stock apk. Battery life is good, 5 and a half hour SOT with games. Memory Management could be better.
I'm using it on X822, so it's supposed to work on every type of LeMax2.
I recommend you to test those ROMs that are available for this device, and use them for a while. You might discover other issues, or maybe you don't experience the problems that I have, who knows.
With cuoco the google play services crash. Very annoying.
M cuoco rom
N infrag aicp by far
I'm looking for a rom for my beloved Le Max 2 with the audio configurations of the stock EUI.
Any 7.1 (or custom in general, haven't tried any 6.0 roms) ROM I've tried has the volume way too loud and bulky, making it hard for ears to use the phone with more than 50% of volume. RR, LineAge, AOKP, all have the exact same audio problems!
I noticed that MIUI have somewhat close configurations, but I wanted stock. Then I found AICP ROM from the BlackScreen Kernel, but there's one major downside for me, as I can't play Score Hero (it's a hit-n-miss situation, sometimes it launches but most of the time it gives me black screen). + I can't flash vulkan.
So, any thoughts?

Thanx a lot, your link of Vulkan works like a charm, with just dirty install! I should've looked more than just flash the first I found on the forum
With Vulkan I have no problems with games anymore, in fact some running way better!

Hello everyone!
I've been on smallEUI for a while, and I've decided that it's not worth it to keep anymore. SOT is inconsistent, there are small bugs here and there, and some major that begin to appear after a while.
I've been looking at Mokee and Ressurection Remix (sadly, author has stopped development of a buggy nougat version and moved to oreo)
I'm not looking for spectacular SOT that will blow me away. 4-5 hours is enough for me.
Stability is a huge must for me, i use my phone everyday and I need to be able to depend on it. EUI ROMs have aggressive RAM management (I have the 6gb RAM version and EUI treats it as if I only have 2gb, removing apps from RAM like my launcher). I need basic features like VoLTE and Bluetooth to work without fail.
I don't really care about safetynet, so I'm fine without that.
EDIT: I'm a fool, I said OmniROM instead of Slim. Sorry about that.
Thanks!
EDIT
Alright, I've actually installed Slim. Its superior to SmallEUI in almost every way.
Camera is almost as good as stock, no noticable difference.
Battery life is much more consistant (Expect 4 h 30m of SOT with mixed usage.)
No more crappy EUI RAM management (Its really bad, it treats 6GB of RAM like its 512MB of ram, killling any background processes, including your launcher, forcing frequent redraws)
Slim handles thermals MUCH BETTER than EUI. Way better!
Noticably faster UI, and smoother sustained performance under heavy load.
Nougat!
VoLTE works on T-Mobile US.
Fingerprint sensor works perfectly, and works faster in Slim than EUI, and more accuratly too!
Bug free so far.
And OTA updates!
This is hands down the most stable experience I've seen so far.
Better than Lineage, better than Mokee, and SmallEUI.
Go for this ROM, you won't regret it.

Hi I'm currently using MOKEE and it's actually pretty stable. I haven't found any bugs at all but I'm not sure if VoLTE works and if you download it there will be almost everyday update but you don't have to download them because they don't change anything for our device

If I were to switch to Mokee, should I download the stable version?
The nightlies seem to be auto compiled and they look really unstable.
EDIT: Also, how is SOT?

It's recommend to download the stable and the nighties are almost the same so don't worry downloading them.
Also I'm not sure what do you mean by SOT.

You have never heard of the term?
I'm just kind of surprised. It means "screen on time".

I just haven't come across it but I don't have any problem SOT but I'm not a lot on my phone so I can't say a lot.
I’m in a similar position as you are. Using LOS 14. It’s been really stable. Best ROM i’ve used so far for the Le max 2. Small eui was a buggy mess when I used it. RR was good at first, but more bugs made me switch. Happily using LOS as a daily driver now.

How is Lineage os in general?
Does gps work fine?
Fingerprint scanner can be fixed easily with a firmware update, so I don't mind that.
How is SOT?
Does camera quality match EUI?
Thanks!
Los if probably my favourite flavour android. RR has more options, though seems slower and more prone to issues (in my experience).
Camera is great. I've installed the Google hdr released camera app though, it's excellent.
Not too sure about sot sorry. Phone is usually around 20% when I finish the day. That's from 6am till say 10pm. I'd say average use for anyone that's on XDA.
This phone has never had good battery for me, except for small eui. But that was at the expense of an unusable rom with no SMS or push notifications working.
Finger print works perfectly.
Heyyo, for most stable? I'd say OmniROM 7 or LineageOS 14.1. They tend to not get the newest changes right away which is good for stability.
OmniROM is unique in the sense that it actually gets certified official builds signed by Google so they do come with SafetyNet Certification. It's the only custom ROM for the LeEco Le Max 2 that gets that.
Hopefully once GalacticSryder receives his Le Max 2 he can get his Mach LeEco kernel working for it and get official signed builds of Paranoid Android as that is the only other ROM that I know of that gets Google signed builds. Tbh I'm really stoked for this as I failed to port his Mach LeEco kernel haha.
Oh, if you plan on using MultiROM? OmniROM play store certification only works if you install it as the internal ROM and not secondary ROM as it mounts the system as writeable. You'd then need to do Magisk plus Universal SafetyNet fix module to spoof the Play Store.
The only downside to OmniROM is Andr68rus has moved onto Oreo development so it probably won't get Le Max 2 specific upgrades but thus far from my testing all Le Max 2 bugs have been squashed much like LineageOS 14.1.
If you want better screen on time with OmniROM or LOS? You can always root with Magisk and then install the AKT Profiles App and use something like Project X.A.N.A. balanced or battery.
If screen on time is your goal though? Slimroms I'd say currently has the best balance of screen on time and performance.
Anywho? Lots to choose from and there isn't really a wrong answer except for say the AOKP or other discontinued ROMs.

Thanks for the detailed reply!
Sorry for the late reply.
So, I'm deciding between Lineage and Omnirom right now. Are there are basic features that differ between the two ROMs? Like included customization options or small tweaks that give the ROM it's unique personality?
It's amazing to see that a relatively not that known device has such a large and dedicated community to support it even when the company is going down under.
Thanks!

LineageOS has weekly build updates so it does still receive the Google Monthly Security updates which is nice. It also has a lot more customization options than OmniROM
OmniROM as I mentioned is the only custom ROM for the Le Max 2 with official SafetyNet certification as a main feature. I've also noticed because of it that it's the only ROM I know of where fingerprint unlocking works with stuff like my RBC banking app.
OmniROM tends to not get as many flashy features as LineageOS but it has a few unique ones built into it such as OmniSwitch which is an alternative to the recent apps screen where it slides a small panel from the side of the screen and has the same functionality as recent apps but without the need of exiting your current app.
There's also their open source clock app as another example.
For Le Max 2 specifics? OmniROM has Dolby Atmos built into it for better sound quality and also the LeEco infrared app for using the IR blaster built into this phone so both work out of the box without the need of flashing Magisk Modules or anything like that.

Thank you!
I will be installing Lineage OS and try it out!
Actually pulled a switcharoo at the last moment. I decided to go with Slim instead of Lineage because Lineage doesn't have VoLTE, and users report various problems with Lineage.
If anyone here is deciding on what to install, go for Slim.
Safetynet+Magisk passes safteynet, and everything is very fast.
UI and interface is really smooth, phone tempratures are much better than stock EUI, and SmallEUI
If gaming performance is your thing, expect a 20-30% increase in FPS than EUI based ROMS.
Battery life is a bit worse than EUI, but its consistent. In SmallEUI SOT would vary from almost 6 hours to as little as 1 hour and 30 minutes. Slim has a consistant 4 hour 30 min with mixed usage (Reddit, Gaming, and YouTube).
And best of all, no more annoying EUI RAM management! I have 6GB of RAM in my phone! Stop treating it like its 512MB and killing all background apps! It even killed Nova Launcher occasionally!
Slim is amazing. Simply amazing. I'm glad I made the switch now, and not later. I love it.
EDIT: I'm a fool, I said Omni instead of Slim. Sorry about that everyone.
Yep, tried them all and Omni's the best. Was worried that I'd miss functionality from EUI but everything actually works better. There's no reason at all to stick with stock roms. Do you know does Vulkan work with Omni?
Which performs better in high end games like Injustice 2 and PUBG?
I read somewhere that crDroid Unofficial is the best in terms of performance among oreo roms but crDroid 7.1.2 is even better than Oreo in Games and antutu benchmarks.
Which one do you guys recommend? I want the best performance in Injustice 2 without force close time to time which I faced in crDroid unofficial by difrED even though I manged to get 64k in antutu. It still kept force closing in Injustice 2.
Also I noticed that many games in ppsspp emulator ran smoothly in mm and nougat but couldn't even start in crDroid unofficial. Even after trying different custom kernels (for example Naruto Ultimate Ninja Impact). Anyone else faced the same problems?
Currently I am using LOS official nougat. Not facing any issue but customization is very less in LOS that's why I am asking for best custom rom which has smooth performance in games and more customization than LOS

i think pie roms are still not optimized.
if u use kernel auditor, u will see that cpu, gpu & other settings are limited to a fixed value, they don't have full potential, may be because of increasing battery life.
i have 3gb kenzo, i also face lags on many apps like Facebook on pie roms
if battery life isn't a issue to u, u can modify kernel settings to get lag free experience
increase zram, increase cpu frequency

No lag for multitasking and pubg gameplay is pretty good
Been using NOS Pie for quite some time and tried other Pie ROMs, and I can already tell that NOS Pie is the most stable among all others for Kenzo 2 Gb variant.

Agreed, they are still under development just flash an Oreo then flash Pie after 4-5 months. I flashed RR on December and gonna change in March (When my exams will end ahahhaha)
