Currently the best rom for Mi 6? - Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers

Hi guys!
Im going to buy xiaomi mi6 soon, so i want you to share with me your opinions about custom roms you used. Could you tell me what rom is the least bugged and gives me the most comfortable work with this device? Maybe the global stable is? Generally im looking for the best rom, and them futures.

If you are keeping bootloader locked then go for global beta most likely.
If you will unlock then the stable ROMs are based on 7.1.2.
AOSPA has a good reputation but LineageOS 14 is about to go official for Sagit.
The 8.1 ROMs are stable enough for most uses and so far I had no issues. Just waiting for Oreo kernel sources from Xiaomi for more stability.
There is no overall best ROM. Just the best for you.
Most people here don't like MIUI though.
Its alright but for anyone who's used to AOSP style ROMs they will not feel at home using it.
Its like an iOS splice of Android leaning more heavily to Android.

MIUI gives the best experience for me, most of time I flash weekly ROM's from Xiaomi.eu. They have stable too, if you don't want to flash every week and you don't mind trying new features. Xiaomi.eu team do a great job and sometimes fix some issues with official ROM's.
You have more MIUI based ROM's like Globe Rom, you can customize before downloading and Epic Rom I'm using this week.
If you like AOSP 'flavour' you can try Resurrection Remix (RR) very customizable via settings, and the classic Lineage OS (the old Cyanogen Mod).
Give a try some of them an tell us you experience

MIUI Global Stable - Stock ROM back in May, pretty okay, except battery drain was pretty bad. About 80-100mA drain during standby
Xiaomi.eu - the first non-official ROM I use, but still a MIUI-based. At least they give consistent weekly update and improvement. Battery drain problem was fixed here. But alas, I still hate MIUI's notification handling. The moment AOSP-based ROM pop, I made a switch, which is
LineageOS 14 by Xiaobai - first AOSP based ROM for Mi6. It was pretty good. I used LOS14 on my LG G2 back then, so it was pretty much as good as it can get
Lineage 15.0 by NisseCool/UnknownDev420 - Probably one of the first Oreo/non-MIUI ROM available here. Still lots of bugs, but usable. But phone gets really hot (up to 47c during load). Project is getting less update since December. Then finally I made a jump to
crDroid (Android 8.1) by Verevka - It has all the bugs in LOS15.0 fixed and have the goodness of MIUI camera. The downside right now is that QC3.0 isn't working. You're capped at 1500mA charging instead of 3000mA, which is pretty okay considering it'll get fixed and the ROM is still getting updated regularly.

Thanks guys, you are really helpfull. The roms you described have OTA update future? I like to enjoy with installing custom roms etc. but i dont want to manually update os after all updates.

I think Epic ROM from MrRaines is the only custom ROM we have here that has OTA. Though I've never tried it before.

Which rom do you guys think has the best battery performance?? I am using RR now and getting a SoT of around 7 hrs to %20

Did anyone try the flymeOS that is new for mi6

rn im using MIUI global beta with android 8.0.0 and very smooth here. However, as soon as official Lineage OS is out im installing it. Ive already tested other custom roms such as AEX and another one based on android 8 (not miui) and i was very happy although i left due to poor camera and some bug which didnt allow me to update one app precisely which i used, so had to go back

for now im on miui eu stable.Bugs free battery is very good and ofc is fast.

Best custom Rom?

Hi all,
Thinking of dipping my toe in the water with a custom rom. I'm still on stock H815v20L or something and whilst P is apparently being released I thought I'd check out the alternatives.. Unless P is out, rootable and stable?
Any recommendations for a custom Rom with Nougat 7.1+ pkease?
Any to avoid?
Cheers,
H

I think there is only 3 Nougat roms which are LinageOS/AOSP based which are being activily developed for LG g4. Resurrection Remix, Linage OS and Dirty Unicorns. I personaly use Resurrection Remix, more stable build for my taste for stable daily driver, DU probably also pretty stable but Linage OS releases are pretty much nightlys.
Only thing with these roms that camera performance is pretty bad to stock, doesnt matter what camera application you use. You can get pretty decent pictures with really good sun/day light and maybe small color editing but the noise and grain from like google camera is terrible in darker photos.
Nougat actually doesnt bring anything new for me, I personaly flashed RR and got theme engine on to get different settings menu cuz I hate the blue theme on lg stock.
If you got TWRP and unlocked bootloader , just flash and try
I use LineageOS on a daily use since mid May. I prefer not to update the ROM every week but every month.
So far, LOS is very stable. I change the camera for the Google Camera and works properly for now.
But as Diddymies says, flash and try

Best MIUI custom rom

Hello,
Guys please I need your help with something, I wanna flash a custom rom I haven't unlocked my device yet so this is my first time I just wanted your opinion.
Xiaomi eu to guarantee future updates.
Mi globe has some extra things and also lets you customize the rom right before downloading.
Epic rom and multirom are also good (epic is in limbo, it's not clear that it'll continue getting updates as it was on nougat but you can try).
But unless you really like miui or prioritize gaming performance I suggest you to install an aosp based rom such as los (or another rom that's based on either los or aosp). Also there're some aosp or los based builds that doesn't suffer on gaming performance.

I just wanted a good decent stable rom and bug-free so i though that any rom based on MIUI would be much better than the aosp based ones.
So what do you think for me i had a sony before and i was changing rom frequently.. and actually i sick of it i just wanted a very stable rom with OTA updates.

Then use xiaomi eu. But to me aosp roms are bug free and stable. No rom side issues with the official ones. So don't worry about rom issues while using them. Just have the recommended firmware version and enjoy.

Both roms are stable on their behalf on Android pie it depends which rom you are using some roms are buggy or lag sometimes but some are smooth As per now Pixel experience is best stable rom by now and you can try more also

There is Mi-Globe which are MIUI ROMs based on official but with all the junk removed (optional). You choose which junk to remove (select expert settings) and build ROM accordingly:

Good to know, I never heard of that before!
I still prefer a AOSP rom, but this mi-globe appears to be very good for someone sticking to MIUI!
MIUI 10
Custom Android 9
Pie worse , graphic glitch common problem. Use oreo as for now untill pie stable enough.
I would suggest either 8.1 custom roms or Miui 9 (10 is just not as great in terms of perfomance etc compared to 9).
Just my opinion.
I get similar battery life between some custom 8.1 and miui9, just a matter of debloating miui9 manually and then its pretty much the same minus the customizations that custom 8.1 roms bring (unless you go LOS)
PIE is still at its early stages when it comes to custom roms but you have Pixel Experience, Liquid Remix which seem to be most stable albeit with some bugs etc

Smooth Rom

Hello, i had the pixel eperience rom since 2 or 3 month, but i am studying now and i don't like the lack of smooth/ laggy in the prixel experience rom.
I use my phone only for web browsing, spotify youtube vanced, gps, gcam, messenger...but each app take a lote of time to start and this is not good,.my phone is rooter with magisk and it is realy good to have adaway ...
Which rom do you advice for a guy like me, i don t play game, i want the smoothest rom, i don t care about android version, if i have to downgrade my phone on android 6 marshmallow, no probleme for me and if for your the best is oxygen os, i will return, sory my english is not very good
Of curse I used to changed in pixel eperience 2 month ago because i found oreo and pie oxygyn os stock rom « laggy»
If the thread is not in the right oneplus 3 forum place, thank you to advice me where can i put this thread.
Thank, from Belgium
Anyone can not share his experience or send me somehere with the same ask?
I would say OOS9.0.5 is rock solid when it comes to stability when paired with custom kernel.
I was using it since it released with HDK kernel & never faced any issues.
But if you are into more features & customizations, give it a try to xtended or havoc. Both are pretty stable.
I recently switched to Havoc as I was missing few features on OOS.
Try OOS9 without any kernel
Seems to work pretty well

Thank you, i think i will try havoc because i used oos 9 since the begining of android 9, but the life battery was realy short and the ui laggy.
I heard here or on another websites skydragon and resurection remix are realy good roms ? Is it true from your experience?

I am doing a backup of the application via titanium backup and my rom via the recovery in case it is fail somewhere, then I will install havoc and even what it is worth, the concern oxygen os and piexel experience ,is that the baterie is catastophic, not very fluid and I very often lose the wifi 5 ghz so obliged to fall back on the 2.4 ghz

What Rom is most stable of 10.x builds?

Hi guys i used to be a active here on xda but since i got my one plus i kind of left all this behind. Im now looking to bring some life back to my 5t but i want something as stable as possible as it is a work device. Thanks!
This is a hard question because most people didn't try all custom roms. I suggest you check each Android 10 rom status here, if it's mentioned "stable", it should be good enough for daily use.
Any rom which doesn't use h2os firmware.

Buggy
i tried pixel experience and OOS 10 beta , pixel experience is a daily driver not sure about oos10beta tho cause i just got it today but it seems stable
Mainly I'd avoid custom roms cause I'll miss OOS features,no matter how good the custom rom is
I've tried Pixel experience only.
The battery life is more or less the same during normal use (if you play game, the battery will empty soon).
Derpfest rom
