Custom, I have stock, wanted something more customizable. Think I am going with LOS 17.1

I understand you want "custom."
There's a VERY customized ROM based on stock firmware, called A.I.S. Which is why I wanted clarification if you wanted LOS-based custom ROM or stock-based custom ROM. Since you say you want LOS-based, Havoc is probably the most popular LOS 17.1 based ROM with many more options than parent 17.1 itself. This is the most recent update below. Be aware that for all LOS 17.x -based ROMs you need stock Pie firmware installed first as a base for Pie blobs/drivers. You can't be on stock Oreo and jump to LOS 17.x ROMs.

Does your Wi-Fi work at full speed on custom roms? I'm having issues with my Wi-Fi speed and I was wondering if a custom rom would fix it.

You'd have to go to the thread to find out, he has the rooted stock ROM on his main device.

I'm using HavocOS and its WiFi connection seems as fast as the rest of my devices. I just did a couple of tests with speedtest.net and actually got a slightly higher result with my V30+ (240Mbps) than with my laptop (which is also 802.11ac). Obviously, the internet connection is a limiting factor there and results would be different copying within the network, but I imagine that "full speed" to you means as fast of an internet connection as other devices, so the answer is yes, at least in my case.

That's the "Update" thread where other V30 LOS-based ROMs are released -- but A.I.X. is separate from that. However, still may be of interest to you.
NOTE: The instructions are very detailed for installing A.I.X. and when people don't follow directions and blame the Dev it won't end well for them. They will get booted from the A.I.X. thread. A.I.X. is not like installing a "regular" ROM, so don't go in with that expectation.
Having said all that, XDA is still where you will get the most detailed written assistance for LOS ROMs. I am just pointing you to Telegram where you can find more quantity of ROMs.

The x829 which I ordered from TomTop is on its way... and I've only just read about the woes of LeEco in US and IN, where it seems to be a matter of time before both regional ventures go broke. So while I previously thought I'd stick with the phone's stock rom and OTAs, I'm now faced with a foreseeable future with no LeEco official updates. In that case, I figure I might as well start using an alternative rom right off the bat.
So, I need a recommendation for a ROM that hopefully can meet the following criteria:
1. ongoing support with OTA patches and updates from a stable group / recognised devt team
2. all functionality on the x829 should work: fingerprint, VoLTE, 4k video, OIS, EIS, audio, ... and are there any others that may not work in different roms?
3. I'm not so concerned about marshmallow vs nougat. Nougat would be good, but life goes on as long as I get updates on marshmallow.
Based on criteria 1, I suppose that my choices are limited to the following.
a. LineageOS 13.0 - is all functionality working?
b. Resurrection Remix - M - at least VoLTE not working. any others?
Do I have any other options?
c. LineageOS 13.0 by andr68us - only supported by andr68us, would not get ongoing patches right? and if this has extra stuff compared to official lineageOS, does the official fully support the camera, IR remote, etc?
d. LineageOS 14.1 - only supported by cr3pt, would not get ongoing patches right?
d. MIUI??
f. mokkee?
g. stick with stock china rom or india rom?
h. Small EUI by aurel - No ongoing patches right?
Would appreciate your corrections and thoughts.

Use the latest official Indian ROM.
Currently all custom ROMs for Max2 are buggy or incomplete in one way or another.

True, but being able to get ongoing patches is a pretty big plug for me. That's why I seem to only really have LineageOS 13.0 official and Resurrection Remix-M official choices meeting this criteria right? Actually, I've never used either. Is the update mechanism OTA, or manual download-and-patch?
I guess I should add that OTA is nice but not strictly necessary as long as the necessary patches are consistently applied, and builds are being made. I can download and apply the patches manually (but OTA would be nice).

Thanks. Maybe that's what I'll do after all.
on the other hand... which is the least buggy custom rom? If the bugs are something I can live with, and it gives me an easier future migration path (or removes the need to migrate firmware altogether) I might take it.
Actually, all of this was on the premise that LeEco US & IN would go bust and no further pacthes will be available. Does this assumption look correct, or maybe I don't need to worry about this?
LeEco is pretty popular in India. I guess its their most valuable territory at the moment, because their attempt to infiltrate the US market has clearly failed and in China they barely make the list of top ten Android vendors.
You shouldn't have bought this phone in the first place if you expected any decent support for it. Too bad, I made the same mistake.
I'm on mokee, with the Chinese 23s modem and gapps flashed on top of it. Everything works, it has OTA.

The unofficial lineage os 13 by andr68rus is the best and most stable mm rom. Official one does not support ir. This one does. It has all the features and stability of the official one plus the ir functionality and the option for flashing viper4divine beats which actually broke the volte feature in official one. Using Selinux Mode changer app sucks. After some days apps dependent on it stop working after a few days. And regarding ota updates. Y do u need it when everything is perfectly working without bugs??. Heating is the same as dat on all other mm roms.

https://forum.xda-developers.com/le-max-2/development/8-0-0-lineageos-15-0-oreo-t3670377?nocache=1
so my question is this and hope i can get help on it:
i want to flash my le max 2 to either android 7 or 8, which third-party ROM (be it android 7 or 8) is the best and free of bugs?
which is pre-rooted? would love one that has been rooted before installing...if not yet rooted, hope it will be easy to root and help on rooting pls.
is the above link the best or any other suggestions and links...? :fingers-crossed:
would appreciate helpful links and comments
thanks

Here's a link to resurrection remix. It's pretty good. https://forum.xda-developers.com/le-max-2/development/x82x-resurrectionremix-m-v5-7-4-t3542355. Most N roms are stable. You have instructions how to install the rom and what gapps to use in the first post on the rom thread. It's also pre rooted.
For the future, when you want to install root just flash this: http://tiny.cc/latestmagisk
Heyyo, for the most stable Nougat ROM? I'd recommend OmniROM. It's not as bleeding edge in changes such as BlackX or Resurrection Remix but it is built for stability upon OmniROM and Darkobas kernel. Depending as well on the build of Resurrection Remix it could have battery drain issues as you'll see on and off in the thread.
OmniROM also has the advantage of signed builds by Google so they come with official SafetyNet Certification. No need of Magisk and Magisk module workarounds so things like fingerprint unlock with your banking app should work without issue unlike any other ROM I've tried with RBC app... That also means if the Le Max 2 had built in NFC that android pay would have worked without a hitch...
I believe the only other custom ROM with signed builds by Google for official SafetyNet Certification is Paranoid Android but sadly there isn't official builds for the Le Max 2 (yet). Maybe once GalacticSryder receives his Le Max 2 we will see that and built upon is custom kernel as well!
I tried porting it but I suck at it and failed haha oh well at least it turns out I'm good at vehicle repairs
If you want ROMs with as much optimization as possible? BlackX or Slimroms is what I'd recommend. Good device tree and vendor stacks and built with Blackscreen kernel for a good balance between performance and battery life.
Also, Resurrection Remix for Nougat has reached final versions so it won't be receiving updates. As far as I know for Nougat ROMs I think Slimroms and BlackX are the only ones receiving updates still as andr68rus and I believe the same with Shivatejapeddi have both changed focus to Oreo.

whoa, thanks alot for the detailed explanation.....
you really spoke highly of OmniROM (which i like) and you also said this: If you want ROMs with as much optimization as possible? BlackX or Slimroms is what I'd recommend
so which will you advise me to go for out of the three? plus which is pre-rooted or can be easily rooted?
i want to have a feel of a rooted device and see how it goes
would like to go for OmniROM (plus pls help me with links on how to get it) but let me have you final conclusion.

You're welcome
It's up to you which path you wish to go. As mentioned OmniROM is definitely the most stable ROM as it tends to not receive major changes as quickly as other ROMs.
The official signed builds are found here:
http://dl.omnirom.org/x2/
Any ROM is super easy to root. Only requires flashing Magisk via TWRP. I'd easily recommend it over any other form of root since it's fully open source software (FOSS) and the modules capabilities is amazing with stuff like Universal SafetyNet fix or other mods like enabling 60fps recording on the Google Camera Mod. I also really enjoy the ART Optimization mod for a little extra performance.
Magisk is found here on XDA and I'd recommend v14.3 right now because v14.0 stable has actually given me more grief heh
You can download and read up on Magisk right here
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=74158225&postcount=31
BlackX ROM is actually maintained by that other dude who posted here, KuranKaname and definitely has the most optimizations of the buch that I recommended. His builds are based on LineageOS with Blackscreen 3.6 kernel which is really nice. His ROM does require special Gapps which can be found in his thread with the ROM downloads as well.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/le-max-2/development/rom-blackx-unofficial-optimized-t3668458
Slimroms was the third I mentioned which is kind of is a balance between the stability of OmniROM but some of the optimization of BlackX.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/le-max-2/development/rom-blackx-unofficial-optimized-t3668458
Since there isn't any limit on ROMs to flash you can always try out a ROM for a few days and if it doesn't quite suit your needs you can try swapping to a different ROM to see how it feels. In the end only you will know which of the three I mentioned is to your liking the most.

Actually, my build are based on a mixture of Lineage + Slim
How many builds of pir are there? can't any of them be installed permanently or are they all still alpha that will need reinstalled after official launch? i want to upgrade from the original OPX android to to pie for daily use. i also want magisks if that's not all supper outdated now too.
LOS 16 is really stable IMO and the dev announced it xill be the one supported in top priority.
There is no evidence that there will be "official" custom Rom on pie for OPX.
so the custom pie roms will not get updates from google?

?? I don't understand your question.
Google doesn't do anything about custom roms.
There is just one dev that worked on some custom roms on Pie (Pixel experience, AOSP and LOS). He just tond that he will put the priority on the LOS one. Note that it's marked as LOS 16 unofficial as he builds it itself, not in the LOS offcial roaster.
Onyx won't even be in the 15.1 roaster as it has just been ejected from official 14.1 roaster.

when Debian gets updates so does ubuntu and kubuntu and lubuntu and xubuntu. custom rom or not it IS still google android pie, so when vulnerability is found a update is pushed out for pie and all pie devices get said fix. unless phones don't work this way which would suck and mean it's un secure the custom rom dev gets boared or no longer has time.

You are confused, android builds are device specific, every patch needs to be integrated and compiled by the developer or mantainer of the rom you're using and can't be used in any other phone. Google releasses a new version of android and it's up to developers to create drivers and kernel "stuff" that allows the software to funcion in the device.

You are confused, android builds are device specific, every patch needs to be integrated and compiled by the developer or mantainer of the rom you're using and can't be used in any other phone.

AH-HA!!!! This makes sense!
Just want to collate some information from a number of different threads and discuss some of the options moving forwards for H932 users. I've been a long time user of Lineage, but couldn't resist the urge to try stock (TWRP) Pie. Thankfully I quite like it (the battery life is amazing) because now (and correct me if I'm wrong):
The H932 that's been "upgraded" to Stock Pie cannot install a custom rom as it will break a number of sensors including the camera
In order to go back to a custom rom of Pie or lower (Lineage / AOSP) based I must:
Downgrade to stock Nougat by flashing the stock (TWRP based) img,.
Run every update since then
Install the custom ROM of choice, but run it in permissive
Wait for a generous dev to create a H932 cusom rom that makes use of Pie blobs
None of the current Lineage 17 based roms work on H932 despite running Pie Blobs
H932 Converter does not work on any Lineage 17 based roms
It's not a biggie for me, but I'm still kicking myself. At least I've still got Root and TWRP.
Bit disappointed that none of these GSI based chinese Roms will work on H932 but as I'm stuck on stock Pie anyway, that's a mute point.

You merely need to downgrade to T-mobile H932 TWRP-flashable Oreo zip. Why do you think you need to downgrade to Nougat?
But since you have been on Pie, when running the custom ROMs you will need a permissive kernel and some sensors still may not work.

Yes, you were warned in the T-mobile H932 Pie thread...

Dunno - think I read somewhere that people had luck getting the sensors back with that one, but if we can't get them all back then it's a mute point.

Yes - but not in the Stock Collection thread - at least not until later in the thread (by which time it was too late). Unless of course the TWRP flashable stock rom is not affected by this issue. Maybe I've got my wires crossed.
I'm not complaining - such is the life of a flashaholic. Nevertheless, I'm wondering whether there is anything on the horizon and what others plan to do.......

OK, maybe to get all sensors back. Yeah, some EU H930 had to do that, Refurbish back to Nougat.
Not sure how it works with T-mobile H932 and TWRP flashable zip.
While I updated to Pie on my spare US998 V30+ just to know the process to write it up, on my daily bootloader unlocked and rooted V30+, I'm still on Oreo. Nothing compelling about Pie right now, and I don't want to waste hours trying to install all the mods and getting everything set up again. I need my phone for my job.
Hey there, I just wanted to know if there is any development or a guide available for flashing an AOSP rom for the H933 running android 9.0 (rooted+twrp).
The last news I've heard regarding this topic is something along the lines of, It cannot be done as the partitions are completely messed up now for those who upgraded to 9.0. I just want to know if that is where we still stand or if there is any development regarding this issue.
I know that the answer is probably in a thread somewhere in this form, and believe me, I have checked most of the relevant threads/posts and I have reached the conclusion that it is either buried deep in the archives somewhere or that no new development has been made regarding this issue. I made this thread to confirm my conclusions and help other H933 owners with the same question.
Cheers.

There's a dedicated thread to prepping your H933 for AOSP ROMs. Mentioned in the ROOT Sticky Guide.
Answered 100 times before. No need to start new thread. Just search better?
See screenshot for easy Google search. See first result.
That procedure is still how H933 can run any LOS-based ROM.
* For LOS-16 ROMs (more stable, less bugs) you need to be back on LG stock Oreo firmware (with TWRP) first. We just got a new LOS-16 ROM last week.
* For LOS-17 (Android 10) ROMs (more bugs) you need to be on LG stock Pie firmware (with TWRP) first.
Know the LOS-17 bugs first, so you don't complain. See LOS-16 and LOS-17 bugs list here, posts #2 and #3:

Sounds good thanks. Yeah, I should've clarified that I was searching for a way to just directly flash an AOSP rom from stock android 9.0 instead of downgrading to Oreo first. I really dont even want to look at LG up after going through the process that you and a few other amazing contributors here found to upgrade to Pie. Looks like I'll be sticking with the stock ROM for now.

If there was a way known to do that, it would be included in the guide.
Probably best to wait for newer aosp 10 ROMs to get updated(a lot ot fixes coming soon) if you don't want to go through hassle of going back to oreo.
