[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tomatot-:
LAST UPDATE: 04 March 2019

Hello guys,

Note: This thread has evolved a lot and now I don't feel it's about my personnal experience anymore. So I've just removed all the bits about myself as they are not relevant and appropriate. You'll have way enough information from the Google sheet as well as the summaries made by the community and myself.

Here you can find a nice spreadsheet made by [MENTION=6016024]Macusercom[/MENTION] and improved by [MENTION=432650]blinkin[/MENTION], the community and general and myself

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1OKpuzMbvMLZ8qtyDmbxMUCayUKM3nkuWhH00fRQqfcs/edit?usp=sharing

The spreadsheet is now in read only mode since some funny guys had fun messing with it.

If you want to add something to the spreadsheet, just send a message on this thread and I'll add it myself.

Don't waste my time / Macusercom's time sending PMs about getting the rights to edit it. Thank you for you understanding.

CAUTION: most of the following is outdated, and while it's usually still true, most ROMs are mature enough to be very similar in terms of performance, battery life and even features. So even more than before, it's mostly about personal preference. The spreadsheet should still be useful however, as long as it keeps being updated.

LiquidRemix

​

(https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-6/development/rom-liquidremix-t3840206 )​

★ Positive things

-A LOT of settings and features

-Great performance

-Good support for MicroG (better than OMNI in my experience)

-Privacy guard is useful for privacy and it's working! You also get advanced permissions control (AppOps) which is neat.

-OOS Cam included

-[Official] so you get OTA udpates

★ Less-positive things (i.e. "bad" things)

-Lots of settings but they are a bit messy, you never know if they will be in /settings/display or /settings/liquidsettings/display for example.

-The theme is a little different to stock Pie. I don't like it as much.

-Fingerprint stops working randomly and the only temporary fix is to reboot device, until it happens again. It hasn't been reported lately so maybe it's fixed.

ArrowOS

​

(https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-6/development/rom-arrowos-t3869015 )​

★ Positive things

-Very unique experience as most advanced settings are integrated in already existing menus. You won't find anything like "ArrowOS extra settings" and I think it's much easier to find options like that. Also, all custom settings are listed probably when using the search bar.

-Great performance

-Great support for MicroG (similar to Liquid, better than Omni)

-OOS Cam included

-[Official] so you get OTA udpates

★ Less-positive things (i.e. "bad" things)

-No vibration strength control

-Battery drain in standby is important (11% over a night). It migtht be fixed?

I will try to update this post with different feedback and will let you know about my experience on other custom ROMs.

Enjoy your OP6 and our wonderful community of developers, cheers! :good:
