I am running RR, and it has been insanely good. Running Google camera and OOS camera (OOS without portrait mode for some reason). Battery life has been stellar so far. (Just turn live display off) Bluetooth worked fine.had it connected to Android Wear all day yesterday. Here is a screenshot of my battery (at least, this is kind of good battery for me personally. I think I even drained more because I was restarting the phone a lot when I was testing themes etc. )

I think it's the Chinese. They don't like the do not disturb thing. ZTE Axon 7 was the same way. ZTE strips out other native features as well. Just like OP

Quick update from me:

After trying Liquid rom and going back and fourth between Oreo Beta 3, I am now fully settled with Codename Phoenix. This rom is simply perfect! Runs so fluidly, battery life for me is better than both liquid and OB3, feature rich and makes my device an absolute joy to use :)
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] aleck0112:
Have you tried RR 6.0? How do they compare?

The concern for me with CP is that it seems like it's discontinued and I don't know if the features I needed are in there
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] azsl1326:
I tried RR and prefer Phoenix better. It has all the customizations, more than RR. On RR, I wasn't able to get WiFi calling and I can on Phoenix. There are also other minor nuances I didn't really care for on RR. Phoenix is being updated about once a week. I am guessing while there is no feedback direct to the dev, he does read the threads on XDA as some of the updates directly related to items mentioned in the threads.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] alewis2k12:
I have tried all roms and seems to me it all depends on the user and how you setup and operate your phone... Im running official RR and to me RR with flash kernel is the best... and after that is liquid remix rom and phoenix and crdroid.... you really cant go wrong with either but for me is RR all the way... only bad part about it is I love flashing the phone lol... so now I cant really flash anymore bcuz going to anything else seems like a downgrade...So for me its all Ressurection Remix paired with flash kernel.... But just give them all a try my friend...
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] aleck0112:
thanks for the replies guys.

Just tried to flash CP and got it all good first time which was not the case with RR. Customization seems to be much better in all aspects (simplier and not overloaded like RR).

Battery life was really good with RR and I expect nothing less with all the feedbacks in this thread.

Happy so far and look like I'm staying for a long time :D
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] alewis2k12:
Sweet like I said you can't really go wrong with any thing on this phone it's so powerful and flies thru everything.... Best phone out imo....
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] nadejo:
The best rom is still oos open beta3.

The gesture option is just amazing. i know this is possible with a gesture app on custom roms. but its better if its include in the rom i think.

The next point is that on all oreo based custom roms i experienced the huge wake delays. no matter how the flashing procedure was, i allways had a wake delay when i used any kind of lockscreen. the only workaround is to not use any lockscreen at all. means even swipe only lockscreen causes this issue. i had this issue on phoenix, liquid remix, aicp, dirty unicorn, aosip, and now reading that it happens to some using rr aswell. And i think its ignorant to say it´s stable because only some of us is experiencing this issue where as it clearly happens on clean installs aswell. i think it is some kind of setting which gets restored when synching with google.

another issue is that the current custom roms dont notice wather the device is decrypted or not. means you will have to flash the verity file when you want to stay decrypted. on oreo based custom roms you will also need to reflash gapps and magisk each time updating the rom.

other than that i think its generally more secure to use the official firmwares and see no big benefit in using custom roms other than the sound mods and apps like youtube with background playback. i also cannot sacrifice the faceunlock and camera of oos and cannot risk having the possible instability caused by custom roms. ofcourse these are just my opinions.

But If there is no more wake delay issue for 100%, the default gesture navigation method gets imported and if the rom can be flashed on decrypted&encrypted devices without any additional verity file, i will switch back to custom roms for sure. Then my favorite rom would be resurrection remix, because it allways has the most mod options with the least performance sacrifice.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] cd993:
Indeed there is no active part forum as such, though there is a telegram discussion thread at the least. I say give it a try as for me, it is simply perfect! The battery usage is amazing, and I mean it when I say this!

Agreed, there are usually weekly updates which I look forward to :)
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Hetex:
I've this same issue, seems to be caused by magisks, still haven't figured out exactly why. Looks like I'm going back to OB3.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Duncan1982:
I'm still preferring a Stock ROM (The One) with Substratum for theming, Magisk tweaks, Flash Kernel & Xposed for other things. Not taking anything away from other ROMs, once they are developed a bit further then I will most certainly try and preferably if Dual boot works with Stock Primary & Custom as Secondary.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Xtremelyevil:
I still can't bring myself to switch to a custom ROM (after using custom ROMs 24/7 on my Moto X) , just because none of them seem to have the face unlock that comes on the stock rom.

WIll this ever be ported?

Stock android face unlock is just way to slow.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] aleck0112:
Codename Phoenix has face unlock just like OOS, it's a tiny bit slower, nowhere near slow enough to make it uncomfortable though, so I'm loving it so far even though I stayed with OOS (freedomOS) most of my time with the 3T.

Give it a go
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] OldMid:
Its oneplus proprietary software, porting it wouldn't be very legal...
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] cd993:
For me personally I never got into using face unlock. For the time it takes to wake the screen pressing the power button, the fingerprint sensor in the same time unlocks the screen. Face unlock adds another step in this, but of course each to their own! I'm glad for those that do use it that there is an option at least, albeit not as fast as the OOS one (which when I did try it out was crazy fast and impressive!)
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] darbylonia:
After reading all the comments, I think I'm going to maybe give Codename Phoenix a go, and then also try OB3. With different kernels too. The only true way to know what the best ROM is for your device is to try it on for size. Once I have time, it's back to Flash City for me! LOL :good:
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] cd993:
Dooo iiiiiiitttttt!

Honestly, give phoenix a go. Get it all setup and enjoy - you'll soon see what all the fuss is about ;)
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Simonis:
Hi, how is camera quality of Phoenix compared to Stock camera? Especially with low light?
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] cd993:
To be honest I'm using the gcam port which helps massively. It is possible to have the OOS cam working on this rom but a magisk module that I'm using interferes with it.

I did see on forums today that some progress is being made with the OOS camera and custom ROMs, so I guess hopefully improvements can be made soon
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Simonis:
Any link for that port?

Thanks

Unfortunately not I don't think
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] darbylonia:
Well, I made the jump last night! Still getting things set up, but I definitely see what the hype is about. So far it is a very smooth ROM with incredible battery life as everyone has claimed. I'll stick with this for a bit and probably go check something out for comparison. I am thinking of trying OB3 with just substratum and xposed and see how that runs. Then I can always come back. But I can report that Codename Phoenix is a must-try. :good:
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] cd993:
Great to hear!

Certainly give OB3 a try to cure your curiousity, though I tried that with xposed to bring back certain features and Phoenix just had better performance and battery life with all such features baked in the rom.

For me, it's safe to say that this is a keeper!
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] SlyUK:
How everyone getting along with Liquid Remix, for those that are using it ?
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] alewis2k12:
Liquid remix is a very good Rom...second best in my opinion... I switched to official RR from that Rom...but when I was running I didn't have not 1 complaint.... Very fast and smooth rom...You can't go wrong it.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] darbylonia:
I was on LR till last night. It is an excellent ROM and worth trying out. I only moved to Codename Phoenix out of curiosity and the flashing bug. I may even checkout other ROMs and maybe even go back to LR. Each one has a different feel, even if they are all smooth and fast. It's too hard for me to stick to just one. :good:
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] ps000000:
I moved around everyday.

(Yes I am a long-time flashaholic.)

:fingers-crossed:

mostly ended up with

these three.

LiquidRemix , RR and crDroid
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] darbylonia:
How does RR and crDroid compare with LR? I don't tend to see people ranking crDroid among the top. Just curious.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] gleggie:
Is RR (or any of the Aosp ROMs) as stable as Phoenix? And can RR be run if you're encrypted?
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] alewis2k12:
Definitely I ran Phoenix and loved the Rom...Now running RR it's stable as can be... Super fast...customizations...You can't beat it... Try it out....

---------- Post added at 09:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:07 AM ----------

Imo RR is the best... And LR and CRdriod...is in a tie for 2nd... Basically every Rom we got for this device is good... You just gotta try and see what best fits you...
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] ps000000:
All three are "Customization Rich" ROMs.

(Compared to LineageOS , Omni , DirtyUnicorn)

Some ROMs missing some options but have another options that not found in others. (Not exactly remember.)

[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] vineetjoseph:
Thank you for sharing the GCam setup earlier. I wanna try the pheonix rom today and would request you to kindly share your setup eg which kernel and gapps works best with the ROM

Thank you for your time
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] OldMid:
My set up:

Latest flash kernel

The ROM itself(obviously)

Microg(no gapps)

Rooted with latest magisk beta

When I did use gapps, I used unofficial opengapps pico

Make sure to flash ROM and gapps at the same time, then flash kernel, boot into system, set up, then flash magisk if you want root
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] cd993:
Indeed, latest rom with latest pico gapps and the kernel that it comes with :)

How do you find microg? I've been tempted by this, but wonder if there are any apps that may require the gapps. So I presume Gmail won't work so I'd need to find an alternative to that, along with chrome etc?
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] MsuatafaKhatab:
Can I take screen shot with three fingers as oos on phnoix Rom

If no can do with gravity Xposed
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] OldMid:
Its much more pleasant than I expected, there are multitudes of alternatives to choose from, some even with better benefits than google.

For mail I use bluemail, super useful, takes pretty much any sort of email domain and makes them unified if you want or separate

More apps work than you would expect, the only things I'd probably say people would find issues with is apps that require a license check if purchased or games.

For YouTube I use newpipe which allows background play and pictures -in-picture, which is pretty sick

Screwed ROM will be something to watch for.

The beta dropped last month and looks great, though nothing new recently.

They always have a very feature rich ROM, similar to Resurrection Remix.

It can be found in Google+ (not XDA).
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] SlyUK:
Nice. Do you reckon we could have a discussion forum, similar to what they have for Codename Phoenix, with regards to Screwed Rom for the 5T ?
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] CZ Eddie:
I dunno.

Screw'd may not like having their ROM discussed on XDA?

Couldn't hurt to ask though.

Feel free to go for it if you want.

If not then I may do that if they drop another ROM soon. It's been ~3 weeks since the last one and dev said he's been busy with work lately.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] SlyUK:
The thing I like about XDA is its very easy to discuss things, troubleshoot, provide logs etc...just generally be helpful with everyone. Not sure how this works with Google+ or Telegram, as haven't experience of using either.

Maybe someone can elaborate with using those two, although i'm sure they are both excellent.

[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] musashiken:
Which custom rom has app scaling option? So far only OOS has that option. I tried Codename Phoenix and no such option available. Some of my games get cropped because of no compatibility with 18:9 aspect ratio. If none of the lineageOS or AOSP based rom has this option, then there's no point for me to even try a custom rom. OOS is the best for now except it's not on the latest oreo and that's a slight disappointment.

[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] kagazushi:
Hi,

I've been testing every android 8 custom ROM, and so far, Phoenix seem to be the best for me:

I use it with MGC_1.5.018 camera and everything works:

Face unlock

Games (Need for speed to be precise)

No crash

Very smooth

Last security patch

Pixel Launcher

I'll stick with it now even if i liked AICP for its OTA interface (but no rom since the 18/02 works now with my games).

With Phoenix, Telegram send me a notification when new build it out, so i must download it myself, but i'm always up to date.

Still miss the oneplus portrait mode.... (I use macro mode with MGC_1.5.018 camera but it's not the same).

Hope this will help you to do your ROM choice!
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] iamterence:
Alright guys

I've been kinda looking for a new ROM to flash, because I miss actual stock Android and my favorite Substatrum themes. So here are my questions:

Which ROM is the most stable? I know all of the ROMs available are considered to be generally stable, but if there's one issue I've seen unanimously is camera either not really working, or not being as good as stock. Is that something I would just have to accept?

And also, which ROM has the least amount of features? There's so many ROMs that's packed full of features, but I feel like Android today, especially since Nougat, are in a really good place. Coming from a Nexus device, I ran stock rooted because Android now has a satisfactory amount of features now baked in that back in the day you would have to root for. So now I just want something a bit closer to barebones stock Android.

Thanks for any help :)
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] rayandreas:
Man, best way to roll is stock with root. That way you can roll viper and other plugs with magisk and still have a great camera.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] iamterence:
I kinda honestly think that's the best bet for me right now. I mean my main gripes are limited sub themes and the white navbar
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] skidaway:
Swift Black for the substratum theme, and Navbar Apps to change the navbar to black has been working great for me. Installing themagisk module for the camera by txx1219 has me content to stay on OOS.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] iamterence:
I know about Swift Black, but what about Navbar Apps? Does it make the Navbar completely black throughout the whole system?
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] skidaway:
Yes, it changes it systemwide. The phone was unusable at night without it.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pl.damianpiwowarski.navbarapps
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] iamterence:
I'll give it a shot.

And I'd imagine with navbar apps, you hide the original navbar with jOnePlus tools or something?

Whoops, nevermind
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] skidaway:
It keeps the stock navbar, just changes the color. In the setup, choose 'change the color of the navigation bar', static color, and set it to the hex color #000000.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] bassbounce:
At the moment I'm using Phoenix rom very smooth. No stuttering like on other roms.

Mainly I moved to custom rom because of the abcense of a always on display on the stock oxygen os and the notification led is not so bright in daytime.

Always on display is such a handy feature, and if it is well implemented in drains only 1% of the battery in 1 hour.

And I like the stock layout of oreo but oxygen os has it own skin what looks like nougat.

What I miss at the moment is automatic brightnes when always on display is running. Such a handy feature from Samsung!

1 thing about all roms I tried almost all this weekend, I can't get Bluetooth media streaming track Info metadata to work with my Ford fiesta 2011 radio , when oxygen os has no problems with it.
