Which rom to use for occasional usage? - Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers

I have replaced the Note 3 after almost 3 years, but I'll still use it occasionally for festivals or whatever when I wouldn't want to risk bringing my new phone. Which rom would be the most suitable for occasional use? I have to use Radon kernel, as my phone has the stuck jack problem. I would like to have a great battery life, stability and good performance, the android version doesn't matter. So could you recommend any?

Use Arrow pie. I heard It has jack stuck fix in default kernel may be.
If default kernel doesnt work then use agni kernel pie which has jack fix option.

Which custom ROM is the best?

Hello guys, i'm getting my OPX in about a week and i'm doing some research beforehand. My question is simple; Which custom ROM is the best one out there?
For now i have my eyes on cyanogenmod but i am wondering what your opinion is.
The only thing i need is for the ROM to be MM and it has to have support to use sdcard as main storage
Also i do have an additional question; Which camera app gives the best results?
Can you guys help me with this?
Thanks for the help
EDIT:
I have read some more around the site and i have found some tweaks that makes the camera better and stuff (http://forum.xda-developers.com/one...-custom-camera-hal-4k-uhd-dci-30-fps-t3315382) Is this any good?
Is there anything else i should know about?
There isn't a "best" ROM. Some are good in some aspects while others are better in other things. It all comes down to personal preference. Start by thinking of whether you are going for features, battery life or a bit of both and go from there. If you are a bit of a noob with ROMs leave you telegram, what's app, etc. and I'll be more than happy to help you

In that case, i think im going to be happy with cm13, atleast that is what ill try first. Im going to try the camera 4k fix and see if that makes the camera better. Thanks for the help, i guess im going with what i thought i would do xD
If I can help you, I'm on SultanXda CM13 rom (25/06 build). I'm really happy with it, more than with OOS. I'm not a ''power user'' (I didn't even rooted my onyx at the moment :s). Everything i need work perfectly (GPS, SMS/MMS, gapps, calls, camera, alarm clock, some social media apps) and battery life is pretty decent (i have ~4h-4h30 SWOT with all ''****ty'' apps like twitter, facebook &co).

So how is the rom you are using compared to the official CM13 rom?
And also, have you tested the 4k camera "patch" ?
i can recommend sultan's cm13 as well
If you are going for pure CMish, be sure to give Sultan's Unofficial CM a try. It's basically stock CM13 with a custom kernel which greatly improved battery life and performances plus a few tweaks to make things easier. I get 5:30h - 6h of screen on time with medium usage.
Try it, you won't regret it
Sultans ROM already has the camera HAL included. It is his after all and it does way more than just enable 4k

I didn't try official CM13, the sultan CM13 works well, i stay with it . I have installed it from one week now, have only one issue of heating but only once and for less than 5 min (maybe because of facebook app **** ...). If you want a stable rom give it a try

I will, does sdcard storage work correctly?
mic issues on sultan's?
AoSPa. Was previously using CM13 but the mic seems problematic, tried aospa last night so far everything is smooth.
Yes, Sultan has both mic and SD storage issues. But you can easily fix those: you fix the external SD with either an xposed module or a zip in this forum; the mic is fixed by editing the build.prop
All the Roms are top notch In there own sense. Best way is read forums and ask questions on what your looking for. I keep going back to Xosp. It works flawless and with sparky kernel gives decent battery life. If you dont want the Sony apps you can just choose your own file/music/gallery apps.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-x/development/rom-xosp-5-4-t3372070
Imo Sultan CM13
I am using Purity ROM. I find it quite efficient both in terms of battery and stable wise. Its better to take a poll and ask the users which ROM are they using. In that way, we can get to know the ROM that is used by many.
So which one is good in terms of battery life?
For Battery life

It is far better than the official cynogen mod nightlies.. I have used both... N sultan cm13 is much stable and runs perfectly with nice batyery life( 4 to 5 hr screen on time) but the only iasue i identified is '' OTG'' is not working.

AOSPA was really good, but the camera app ruined it for me. If you flash the OOS camera app it should be great. Not too sure about it's performance/battery life though, I didn't use it for too long

Best rom without lag?

What is the best fast rom without lag and small ram usage?
None exist. Device too old to not experience lag and ram is always used on Android.
Beamed in by telepathy.
I am interested as well. I am forced to use this device for a week untill my replacement screen for my other phone arrives. I know lagg-free isn't possible but there must be something close?

Try this https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/development/rom-s3-i9300-4-3-based-stock-rom-t3338959
Although the S3 is slow itself and there is not much that can be done about it, you could try the Eclipse ROM along with the Boeffla Kernel 6.9 (note that Moro Kernel v1.8 is also an option). I was very surprised, because everything was actually really fast and the battery was decent.
ROM: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/development/eclipse-rom-t3605315
Boeffla Kernel: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/development/kernel-boeffla-kernel-5-2-27-03-2014-t1964572
Moro Kernel: http://www.esp-desarrolladores.com/showthread.php?t=4173
CM 11 is not that bad.Its fast and multi tasking is good enough.But has some problems with codec I guess.But if you want no trouble then use a Sam based rom like debloated 4.3.

Smoothest oreo ROM right now!

Yes! Asking same question again but which is the smoothest oreo ROM right now? Using AOSIP but launchers are no smooth at all in it. Also games cause lags too.
AEX

Let me try! I hope you are honest with your answer..
Aosip, very good rom
Lineage OS 15.1
MSM Extended
miui 9
Dear
please use MIUI9 , this is the best ROM for LeEco Max 2,
awesome battery backup and lots of customise theme you can get in.
only one prob -it is marmallow
but it doesnt care.
rocking this rom,
use it
Those who need smoothness AOSP Extended is the best choice but it has some bugs-
Lags in games
Colour changing issue
Everything else perfect but lags in games is a deal breaker.
AOSIP will be a great choice if someone needs oreo and want the maximum stability with most of your x2, the only bad thing is it lags from last few builds, games are smooth tho.
I'm thinking to going to stock ROM, for better sound, battery, and stable smooth UI, not that laggy. But games lags on stock ROM , even Geometry dash lite lags horribly in stock ROM. Only performance issue is stopping me to use stock ROM, any solution for it?
@ThE_MarD do you have some ideas for my last question?

For gaming? I did link shiva my bardockpro GPU blobs Kang I'm unsure if he saw it or not but they do improve GPU performance.
Otherwise for lags over time? That could be thermal config needs revision... Maybe same with perf stuff
Another vote for AOSPEx. It really is a great rom.
The AospEXtended maintainer blew it when he introduced the EAS kernel - it causes lags and poor battery life. The builds after the 0417 one all became worse. So, if you still want to try it anyway, I'd recommend that one and nothing newer until he comes to his senses and reintroduces a HMP kernel or drastically reworks the EAS one...

Ghost touch/Battery Drain

I have MIUI 10.3.4 Global Stable and i have serious problems with ghost touch and battery drain. I can't play any game because this.
Is ghost touch hardware or software issue? Can Xiaomi fix it with new update?

No, don't even bother on custom ROM as its will give you more problems dan solutions. i'm using stable 10.3.4.0 too (4k 60fps with built-in camera app ftw) with extreme kernel and it works seamlessly. if you're not a hardcore gamer and concerning more to longevity of the phone try franco kernel instead (bc extreme kernel will overclock everything). FK will underclock your CPU and optimize some other settings to make your phone running 'enough' power with minimal battery drain.

Do you have any problems with touch with this kernel?
Same problem here
No matter what rom or beta build or stable build i use .ghost toch still not fix.
I think d best ways to fix the problem is replace touch panel.

Using multitouch test app, if i try to touching the same spot repeatedly it's only detects like only 7/10 touches. But when playing games or typing there's no missing touch though. For ghost touch, i don't encounter any.

Donkey. How will any of this fix his problems? Your chatting crap about how you enjoy Franco Kernel? If he has the problems on a custom rom then it's more than likely a hardware issue

This is the kinda person who start talking rubbish, mocking other's opinion, start a fight in a peacefully thread and thinking they are know abt everything. Custom ROM is just a skin that do a little to none modification to system, and kernel will have more control than custom ROM bcs kernel IS the main driver for the hardware. So if you're pointing out that he just need to test it via software perspective, then flash a custom kernel and he will know if the issue is on the hardware level or just need an updated/modded driver/software. Stop treating others like that, start a debate with manners, smart guy.
Should i sell this phone and buy Samsung? I bought this phone for gaming. I can't play any game because touch issue.
I sell this phone today because bad display. I will use Android emulator for PC.
I had Ghost Touch problem on my Xiaomi mi9 in Call of Duty Mobile and PubG.
This is the only solution which fixed my problem:
xiaomi.eu/community/threads/xiaomi-mi-9-ghost-touch-issue.51043/#post-503263
1. Open settings
2. Activate developer options (My device > Tap 8 times on "MIUI-Version")
3. Settings > Additional Settings
4. Developer options
5. Disable MIUI-Optimizations (at the very bottom).
6. Reboot

Which 9/10 ROM?

Hi guys,
I've got 2x 32GB Note 4's in the family and I want to take the unofficial jump from 7.0 (MIUI 11) to one of the very many, current, custom ROM's posted here...
My question is which one? There are loads
Stability is my primary concern - not that fussed about all the 'whistles and bells,' just stability.
Thanks.
Pixel Experience Plus Edition.
It is well maintained, updated and STABLE.
https://download.pixelexperience.org/mido
I use Servicely and Naptime from the Play Store to reduce battery usage when on standby.
Ideally you can also underclock the kernel using FK Manager, our phone runs normal stock at around 2000mhz when at max speed but I underclocked to 1400mhz and haven't had any slowdowns or stuttering.
If I do play a game, I use stock speeds or set a gaming profile.
9.0 lineage (official but support ended)
10.0 atom rom

I want to try PE out, bUt is there any fix for goodix FP?
Thanks people! Are there any guides going for how to flash a non-gen ROM? I see a lot of mentions of "Wipe System, Data, Dalvik, Cache" . Then having to manually install GApps/Magisk etc.
Thanks.

Just pick one that is often updated so you are not too far back on security updates. Other than that all AOSP based roms are kind of the same with some minor differences in built in customization.
