I can't choose a rom - Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus Questions & Answers

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.

recommendations for stable, lightweight KK rom

I'm looking for a stable KitKat rom on s2. have tried slim (stable) and carbon (nightly) but both seem to lag, FC and/or RR. Can you recommend me some or is it better to switch back to JB? Is the battery drain on KK always higher than on a stable JB?

not yet, my thoughts are: the bigger the rom, the more probable it is, that it consumes more battery. Slimrom seemed to be the smallest rom I found so far for s2. But I know I should try KK since it replaced Dalvik with ART. Nonetheless I might give CyanogenMod a try. Should I go with the M-builds, since there is no stable release since 4.2.2?

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.

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.

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.
