[Q] Stable ROM for my parents? - Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers

Hello,
I bought a new phone so it's time to retire the ZUK Z2. I'll probably give it to my parents since their phones suck, however I'm running a custom ROM that is not very stable, but has a lot of features (that's why I use it).
That said I don't expect them to need all these fancy features, so I'd like to ask you, what ROM is as bug-free as possible? It doesn't matter if it's Android 7 or 9, secure or unsecure, features or without. Preferably not ZUI since they would be coming from Android One and the UI will be unfamiliar.
Thanks!

For Oreo- I found Bootleggers Oreo 3.0 to be the most stable rom(i have used this as a daily driver for a long time) along with Aex Oreo and Even Arrow OS Oreo Final Build is Solid with Prototype Kernel and since they are coming from Android One , Lineage OS Oreo is probably the way to go .
For Nougat - CR Droid is pretty good for battery life along with Viper OS Final for top notch performance , but i think both of these wont matter much in your case .
For Pie - Maybe Arrow OS and Lineage 16.
PS; All other roms are in no means bad or anything , its just that these ones match your requirements in my opinion .
Peace.

Flash stock zui 4

Pixel experience. Oreo build. Not many features and its stable

flash stock zui its the best but since it is heavily modified version of android I will suggest you oxygen os oreo, it is almost pure android with good battery life, or you may try Derp rom based on android pie.

MIUI based on Android Nougat for Redmi 1S?

Good day,
I have a question in mind and I'm hoping that I will get an answer. Excuse me for I have no clue in developing a ROM.
What bugging me is the release of Android Nougat for Redmi 1S which is done only by CyanogenMod (now Lineage OS) with the stock Android UI. This is the same thing happens to other ROMs like the Mokee. However, MIUI ROM for Redmi 1S is definitely an eye catcher which will make you think twice if you really wanted to flash CM14.1 Android Nougat.
My question: Is it possible to develop the MIUI ROM but it will be under Android Nougat so it will not compromise the MIUI UI instead of the generic CM/ Mokee/ Lineage OS UI?
Thanks!

TIP: don't try to install google assistant it will drain your battery, but you can install google app and always use pico package when flashing gapps.

Yes I did and there is no resurrection remix for this phone or viper rom. Plus if there is a ROM out most likely the developer will not relic it.
Most of the Roms for those phones are all final stage Nougat ROMs. There is no Res Remix Oreo yet for any phone. "RR v5.8.5 is the final Nougat build. This is the last update for Android 7.1.2 Nougat and after this you will only receive 8.X Oreo builds. Custom ROM maintainers like Lineage and Paranoid, have already declared final Nougat updates."

I for one would daily drive RR Nougat if someone ported it to OP5T. All the Oreo ROMs have the Bluetooth bug (connections unreliable), and a charging bug when trying to use Android Auto. Until we have official Oreo, those bugs won't be worked out. I hate all stock ROMs.

You are right on that one but for some odd region RR developers from the op5 have quit on there projects so they will probably not being it to the op5t. Said but true. Wish I new how to make a ROM and would make one that's new and exciting with everything RR has to offer plus new things. I also would like to find out a way to mod the op5t to support the 600mhz band that T-Mobile has for there LTE now. My op5t does not work in some places because its not activated on the chip for 600mhz but it does support it.
RR Oreo is coming soon and will most definitely be available for the 5T.
Guys also keep in mind a lot less people updated to the 5t from the others. Most were not falling for that again.
Plus 8.x is a big change so lots of work going into it. Then the whole rebase needed from 8.0 to 8.1.
Check out the Google+ community, Varun just posted a screen of RR Oreo on the 5T. ?

You can try PE Extended. It's based on pie and also got Oxygen OS gestures. Best of both worlds.

What ROM do you guys reccomend?

I just got my bootloader unlocked yesterday, I am currently running pixel experience, Its really slow, buggy and laggy, what ROMs do you reccomend?
LineageOS
I dont know why you guys call Pixel Experience ROM slow.
I dont have any issues what so ever.
Also the performance and battery life is great

Can u help me in unlocking?
My phone is not detecting in mi unlock tool
Based on Pie: Pixel experience Extended
Based on MIUI: Masik or Revolution OS
Based on Oreo 8.1: AOSIP
Just use pixel experience. With the latest update, its good man!
On MIUI side, I can say EU rom
AOSiP Oreo is pretty good.
Using Bootlegger 3.0, it's stable too
RevolutionOS (AOSP or MIUI)
If you like customization:
For pie: PE Extended (Most Stable out of all pie based roms imo), MSM Xtended
8.1: Resurrection Remix, AOSP Extended I liked the most for customization and stability
MIUI based: Masik X
Roms without lots of customization bt stable:
9.0: Pixel Experience
8.1: LineageOS 15.1, Pixel experience
What is the most stable nd customizable MIUI based rom?? (Revolution OS/Masik/miui EU/miui HP/miui PRO)
i like MIUI 10 eu, they dont change system UI like other MIUI based roms,, its faster and smoother than stock MIUI and it has unlocked features from other regions, i tried revolution os and one other and they both mess with system UI elements which doesnt look so good at all, but if you want many customization options, than you can try revolution os, from others i tried, AOSP 8.1 based is best AOSiP, Pie based roms are not ready for daily usage for me, google didnt even finished developement on android 9 and has some bugs, but if you would like then Pixel Experience is way to go

Pixel Experience also seems the best Android PIE (9) based rom at the moment.
LineageOS16 is dead, or going nowhere lack of devs.
Someone shown me a site to customize MIUI rom and remove all unwanted things like ads, etc... If you want MIUI that's seems good.
Anyway, I prefer AOSP based so PixelExperience.
Note: it's also not moving very fast, even if it's probably the most advance rom at the moment.
For Pie: MC-AOSP the best Pie Rom ever
For Miui: Revolution OS

Best Rom for Performance?

Don't want any flashy customization or unnecessary settings. Can do with barebones.
I'm a use of Nova launcher and want a ROM that gives the highest performance and battery life.
Which should I choose? AOSP? Pixel experience? or the Stock MIUI?
If stock is the answer, is there one that doesn't bring back the anti rollback and is pre-rooted as I'd like keep experimenting and delete bloatwares.
On Havoc Official ROM at the moment.
pixel expierence/liquid/bootleggers unofficial/aosip
Havoc mod and rebirth kernel
Go with pixel experience
on OREO, RR6.2 is THE THE BEST! ( you can flash updated version of Derp kernel(s) and have the most out of it)
on PIE, Bootleggers is STABLE strong ! ,, .. I am Using Pie CRDROID and its good too
NONE of the Custom roms can Beat Stock MIUI10.0.0.6 having whole 9 yard of rich user experience! MIUI 10 users haptec habits amd adjusts device accordingly! waiting for PIE miui, which is out for PocoFone Already!

RR is better than other in performance? :0 Are u sure?
As with every other thread people will recommend what they are using. Spend a couple of days and test for yourself. The answer as usual will be that stock or stock based will be the least frustrating experience I guess.
I am using one plus 5T port lastest build and speed snappyness of the ROM I am just loving it and PUBG and other high graphics games just play awesome. With no heating issue .battery back up is also good .
1.Samsung Experience ROM 1.4.1(it's kernel frequency is overclocked)
2.MCAOSP Pie
3.AOSIP Oreo
