Confused on which ROM to choose. Not enough experienced/ knowledge to understand the differences. Need for daily use.
While trying these ROM's felt curious to know Why are there so many ROM's? Why not all develop single/few standard ROM's?
Just ignore the "ROMs" from degrus, they are not real ROMs, they are s-gsi which is like a rom but not device optimised and with a lot of bugs. There is literally one real q ROM for p2. Derpfest from Astridxx

There is already so much hate out there. Please, don't scar this community which helps each other without asking anything. Degrus has done a mistake but he is working hard to push good quality ROMs for P2. Don't blabber wrong info in each thread.

Do not be confused. There are so many developers that they all want to push their own thing but at back-end, all the ROMs are same with same features. Only differences will be found in stability, battery life and bootanimation etc. Android 10 ROMs are in alpha/beta phase at the moment so if you want to enjoy Android 10 features without much fuss then go for most stable ROM which is Bootleggers 4.3 (Android 9). If you want to test Android 10 then go for latest Havoc 3.0. It is the best of all Android 10 ROMs for P2.
And do not pay heed to hatemongers. They are doing nothing but talking bull****. Good luck!
its just that bootleggers doesnt have pixel nav bar and fp hw touch is not used. And at the end Havoc feels stable with a lot customizations. Thanks for the info.

During setup, a restart adjusts all the things. Havoc 2.9 is good but it doesn't have good integration of themes with system UI. That's why I don't recommend it.
Agreed. It's pointless because they are roughly the same, save for maybe an imported function and a fancy boot animation. We should have like two 9.0 and two 10.0 ROMs at most. Instead we have a dozen.
And they all seem to have that damn FP gesture bug.
Hello! I'd like to change my xiaomi.eu rom to any AOSP Android 12 rom. Tell me please the best choice. I need good battery life and without freezes and minimum bugs.
I think there are only 2 AOSP Android 12 roms. Arrow os and pixel extended. I have been using arrow os for almost a week and so far it's great. Minimum bugs and great battery life. I am getting 10+ hours of screen on time. And also no customisation options for obvious reasons.

This is not good, but since there is such a rule...
But it seems to me that a direct download link could be posted here instead.
Paranoid Android Sapphire Alpha (A12 with gapps) - ROM / boot / vendor boot
Paranoid Android Sapphire Alpha 2 (A12 with gapps) - ROM / boot / vendor boot
YAAP 12 Homemade (with gapps)- ROM / boot
p.s. the installation method is the same as on the Pixel OS.
I've been wondering about vanilla roms especially. There seems to be official vanilla arrow os rom. I'd love to hear about it if anyone used it before.
So I have used the Pixel OS for over a week. It is a good rom, no serious problems except:
Battery drains a bit faster
Camera does not work too good
- EIS does not work at all
- 1080p60 does not work with most gcams and while some work, they have other problems like selfie / wide angle camera not working for video... you have to use different gcams for different things
- slow switching between lenses = no smooth zoom etc.
Now I am on xiaomi.eu V13.0.1.0 stable rom.
Problems so far:
No full screen gestures with 3rd party launcher allowed and you can't even hide the nav buttons
- worked around this with Fluid Navigation Gestures and Tasker task that runs on boot to hide the nav buttons (Custom Setting, Type: Global, Name: force_fsg_nav_bar, Value: 1). You might need root for this.
Other than that no problems so far... miui consumes about 30-50mAh less while idle with the screen on (I can get down to 150mA according to Ampere app while Pixel OS was more like 180-200mA after the last update and 240-260 before the update). Difference might be even bigger in deep sleep with the screen off where I had to charge the phone again in the morning with Pixel and I don't have to with miui - battery level now drops only a few % overnight.
Camera is great on miui and appranetly there is some "Miui 13 Camera Mod" that lets you adjust noise reduction algorithm, sharpness, color control, bitrate and other settings. I still have to try that but it is reported to work with 5G NE and xiaomi.eu 22.4.21.
Root / Magisk, ViPER4Android and other modules work with both roms so no problems there.
Added link to LineageOS 18.1 for Xiaomi 11 lite 5g NE (20220515).
Thank you very much for this ROM list. It's hard to find ROMS for this device so I'm glad you've listed the ones you've found.
Thank you for the list. This is the most complete list I have seen so far.
Just for completeness, you could add the URL for the stock ROMs to the list. Useful for people who want to revert for whatever reason.
Having said that, I can only find URLs for individual downloads.
e.g. At the time of posting, URLs for the latest stock ROMs for lisa Europe version are:
https://bigota.d.miui.com/V12.5.8.0.RKOEUXM/lisa_eea_global_images_V12.5.8.0.RKOEUXM_20211209.0000.00_11.0_eea_607b867ac2.tgz
http://bigota.d.miui.com/V13.0.8.0.SKOEUXM/lisa_eea_global_images_V13.0.8.0.SKOEUXM_20220412.0000.00_12.0_eea_d3eb8aafb9.tgz
...but what is the URL for the index page for all lisa stock ROMs?
...or the URL for the index page for all Xiaomi stock ROMs?

I've tried CrDroid, SparkOS and EvolutionX. Arrow OS website is down so couldn't. CrDroid is good but I don't like the look of It, EvolutionX and SparkOS are actually very similar. The reason I picked Spark OS over It is because It actually implemented Dolby Atmos that this phone supports. That's actually the only reason. But I do like that Evolution X has OTA updates. If they add Dolby Atmos I'll switch to It but for now SparkOS It Is.
Edit: Arrow OS not down anymore I'll give It a try and update you on It
I flashed Arrow OS and If I'm honest It's way behind SparkOS and EvolutionX. CONS: Example1: I can't change the size of my icons on the home screen. Example: It's running android 13.0 compared to 13.2 on the other two. Example3: Dolby Atmos nowhere to be found. Example4: Can't disable icons in the top bar like NFC. Example5: No battery health info and no charging info on the lockscreen (wattage, mah, etc.). I'd probably find more with a bit more testing, but I don't like It I'm definetly switching back to SparkOS though there are some PRO's for arrowOS. Since It's so lightweight It has better scores in antutu benchmarks by about 100k and apparently better stability and battery life. That's about It really If you're wondering which Custom ROM to install currwntly, go for either SparkOS or EvolutionX. That's my recommendation. They're both very stock with neat extra features. If you game a lot (more or less just Genshin Impact on Ultra) than ArrowOS is probably for you. If you are a casual gamer (COC, CR, PUBG, COD, etc.) stick with the other two. If you want the newest features sooner get the one of the other two, because the build of android is 2 months newer.
ANTUTU SCORES:
Evolution X and SparkOS: both very close 560000
ArrowOS: 660000
Both results are rounded by about 2K just so It's easier to follow.
And yes these are the best most optimized and most reliable ROM's for POCOF4 out right now so choose between these. Can't wait for Pixel Experience Plus Official to come out. We'll see how that's gonna compare to these three.
Hope this helps anyone who's wondering which one to install.
Edit: I discovered a benchmark and gaming feature under battery settings in SparkOS and EvolutionX which when enabled lifts antutu score to 640000 on SparkOS and to 690000 on EvolutionX. Now It should be a no brainer get the SparkOS or EvolutionX.
PS: I switched to EvolutionX because of better battery life and I just installed Dolby Atmos through Magisk.
Seems no XDA theard of CorvusOS , why?
Hi,
I search a ROM official, encrypted and Pixel based... I hesitate between SparkOS and PixelOS, witch is the difference ? On my old phone I has Pixel Extended and I love the extended features on it.

hi Hardwell , Thanks Alot for your entire experience sharing with use and for your time to spending on testing and posts.
Please suggest best custom ROM for use entire power of this device. Like all Dolby Atmos Vision, Dolby sound,
Lot of official Custom ROM s are appearing in the internet and making lot of confusion. Tried to Pixel Official OS, and MIUI related but for process of installation my phone got bricked. Take lot of days to unbrick the same. due to this experience now iam unable to do dare to experiments without proper knowledge. Please suggest best custom tom will most of the features to blindly follow your suggetions.
and also requesting you confirm is MIUI Chinese ROM is safe?

Waiting for official PixelExperience or PixelExtended
I just bought a second hand Poco F3 6Gb+128 and I would like as soon as I get it to install a Custom ROM because I'm tired of miui, what is your recommendation? I am looking for stability, possibly be years with the same rom installed, and above all a great battery life, I have read some names like Arrow Os, CrDroid or Pixel Experience, and if it were not too much to ask I would like to leave some post to the best gcam for this phone.
Thank you very much for answering <3
If you did a little searching, you would find this:
Best custom rom
Hey, I have a Poco F3, I unlocked the bootloader recently, and I want to know which ROM should I get or is the best for you. I tried xiaomi.eu, but I prefer AOSP/pixel (I tried some, but I can't make a choice). What is the best, I know for now...
forum.xda-developers.com
Crdroid is best for me at the moment. Easy installation and lots customisation.
I'm happy with Arrow OS 13.0, though I'd heard that Paranoid Android (AOSPA) Topaz is even better. I might switch to that soon, myself!
I'm big into battery life. Arrow does great, though AOSPA is supposedly exceptional. CrDroid, as Gurkut mentioned, is great for customization and features, though not so much for battery.

I am a Evo-X patron, Evo-X for me is Amazing and the most polished, but i also like to tinker with other roms as well.
My Favourite roms i keep saved on my USB Stick in conjunction with a OTG adaptor are (in order) No.1 Evo-X, No.2 Voidui, No.3 Nusantara-v5.6,
No.4 crDroid (CRD is also very polished), N0.5 ProjectElixir 3.7
It is great to see new Devs resurrecting out dated roms for our great device.

I've been switching between crdroid and pixel os over the last 6 months and those are among the most polished and complete ROM for our Device. Also crdroid dev has been among the first to provide a custom ROM for Poco F3 2 years ago and keep supporting it which is exceptional. Alas both of them have some tiny bugs (bt or Netflix stuttering) on last releases. Thanks to you johnr64 I've tried nusantara (lots of customisation) on which I had some random freezes/reboots so I gave it up. Now I am experiencing voidui which is quite in the same spirit than pixelos: really close to stock with a few tweaks. It doesn't have Leica cam which isn't a big deal for me since gcam have improved a lot.
Voidui is REALLY smooth out of the box compared to a lot of other roms, it is a pity there ain't any thread on XDA for it (I am not a telegram person). I've installed it via skkk twrp , factory reset , rebooting twrp and flashing DfE then rebooting to system with no issues. Restoring from previous Google backup worked.
Hi Nicky69100,
I never did telegram until i got nagged at by my Family, then after speaking to my girls regarding TG and Custom Rom threads i took the plunge, Signing up to the Evo-X thread first and then crDROID & Voidui.
I am old and first started playing with custom roms (Mods) on a Nokia and then move on to a HTC Wildfire, Samsung's, i gave with sammys after they introduced the 0X1 e-fuse and the awful KNOX, i then moved on to LG.
My FIRST EVER new phone was the F3 (What an amazing device for the price) i looked long and hard before i spent my £££, taking in to consideration the ease of unlocking the bootloader and the DEV support, I am so pleased that i made the right decision for me.
For me the bench mark Custom rom is Evo-X,
Aggelos is a great DEV and is contactable most of the time on the "Early release group" and the Evo-X TG Threads,
of course, Life, University and a GF can some times get in the way.
The customisations i look for are, Smart Charging, Battery Bar, edge lighting, coloured icons in the task bar and the ability to run "Xiaomi Super Live Wallpapers"
below are a few rom i have tried recently,
BananaDroid is looking more polished as it is now a official rom, for me it lacks "Smart Charging" at the moment.
Cherishos (Official) Lacks the Charge bar in the task bar, its great to see that SMART CHARGING is WORKING , Hung Pang is the lead Dev for Cherishos and the F3.
Derpfest by Carrotgarden, Lacks the Charge bar in the task bar and Smart Charging.
Pixel Extended, is to close to stock for me and lacks customisation.
SuperiorOS, Lacks the Charge bar in the task bar and Smart Charging.
Stalix is a nice rom from a new DEV, it can now be installed thru Standard Recovery, it is still lacking in customisation, but it`s still early days.
Rising o/s nice looking rom, Smart Charge is not working, it Zapped 63% of my Battery in half a day, this was the First Rom for me (EVER) to do this.
Skyline is still in Beta and lacks customisation.
Voltage o/s (Unofficial), lacks customisation.
I WOULD LIKE TO SAY A MASSIVE THANK YOU TO ALL THE DEVS FOR ALL THERE HARD WORK AND FOR MAKING OUR F3 AMAZING

I've been switching between crdroid and pixel os over the last 6 months and those are among the most polished and complete ROM for our Device. Also crdroid dev has been among the first to provide a custom ROM for Poco F3 2 years ago and keep supporting it which is exceptional. Alas both of them have some tiny bugs (bt or Netflix stuttering) on last releases. Thanks to you johnr64 I've tried nusantara (lots of customisation) on which I had some random freezes/reboots so I gave it up. Now I am experiencing voidui which is quite in the same spirit than pixelos: really close to stock with a few tweaks. It doesn't have Leica cam which isn't a big deal for me since gcam have improved a lot.
Voidui is REALLY smooth out of the box compared to a lot of other roms, it is a pity there ain't any thread on XDA for it (I am not a telegram person). I've installed it via skkk twrp , factory reset , rebooting twrp and flashing DfE then rebooting to system with no issues. Restoring from previous Google backup worked.

Hi, it's a bit offtopic but can you tell me what version of twrp do you use to flash roms, because The ones I used showed that internal storage "data" is encrypted,and it didn't decrypt even after entering my lock screen pin.

Hi,
I put this little folder together with all the files i use when switching roms, this includes the latest TWRP and a Standalone "Temporary Recovery" that i added a few extra functions to.

Like it was already referred here, it depends on what you're looking for on a rom.
If you like a pixel feel (usually more stable and battery friendly roms) go for arrow, void, paranoid Android (these 3 have the best feedback), pixel os, etc.
If you care about customization and messing around with features, I suggest you to go to CR, ghostdroid (I'm using this one right now. Very cool and promising rom), rising, ancient, derpfest, Evo, nusantara, etc. The list is huge, because we have the luck of our device be one of the ones with more development, probably of ever.
Have to give a huge Thank you to our great developers and maintainers out there
If you wanna get into more and stay fully updated, I too advise to go to TG. There's rom updates on a almost daily basis
