Now that Pokemon Go was released. I was wondering which rom is in fact, the fastest, especially for gaming. Doesn't matter which android it is, 5.0, 5.1 or 6.
Is it omni rom, exodus, slim? CM is a bit slower than AOSP roms, as far as I have noticed.
What's your opinion on this topic? Any help would be appreciated.
I am using CM 13 from about one week and its the fastest for me. But I changed kernel. Now I have KaminariKernel and I overclocked CPU and GPU. Also I change i/o to bfq. Do you want some ss from my Kernel Adiutor?
yes, I play Pokemon GO on Moto G and its working very well But AR MODE is not working :/
ID crisis 6>AOSP CAF > OMNI> Slim>CM
just my opinion.
I did a Geekbench 3 test previously.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/general/moto-g-falcon-geekbench-3-test-roms-t3379663
In fact, I further performed the test on all available ROMs that I can find for Moto G (Falcon) which I didn't post here at XDA as I found out that the difference between the "top performers" and "low performers" is less than 2%, which I conclude as insignificant.
Hence, it's my opinion that there's no fastest or slowest ROM, only stable or not, or whether feature-rich (like DU, RR) or stock-like (Omni, Slim, Exodus).

In my opinion the IDC6 is not the fastest
To be fair, IDC6 includes a Stock Kernel not optimized for performance. To unlock the ROMs potential, you need to flash KaminariKernel. I suspect most custom ROMs include a Kernel that has been tweaked for performance.

but sir, battery drain beside performance is also an important thing I think. id crisis 6 stock kernel does the job perfectly. butter.
Well, since I wrote this, I moved from the latest exodus to the latest 6.0 omni rom. And well, the difference is massive. No offence to the exodus, but this is like a night and day. Pokemon Go runs great, battery life is solid, overall performance is snappy and fast (it feels like a stock rom back in the day). Thanks for the tips lads!
Thanks SlashSpeed, I am using RRemix and I find Pokemon GO unplayable after a short time, overheats and starts runnning really slowly. I will try omni rom. Although I am not expecting miracles, the 1gb RAM will always hold this phone back
I love this phone and it has been the perfect phone for me until Pokemon GO came out
EDIT: I do not see a Omni rom for the Moto G 4g
Anyone know what the fastest rom would be for Moto G 4g (perigrine)?
I am not worried about battery life, mostly performance.
I recently switched to marshmellow, first on Omnirom (with kaminari kernel) and now on ID6 (always with kaminari kernel). Not even comparable, Omnirom is smooth in daily use, but for gaming ID6 is incredible, it doesn't look even like a moto g anymore, compared to the laggy stock or the (speaking about gaming) Omni...

I bought my dad a Galaxy Tab 2 a few years ago and although he barely uses it, it seems to have slowed to a crawl even whilst using it's most basic functions! (I've tried a full factory reset and it's still ridiculously slow - 20+ seconds just to load up the Play Store for example!)
Is there a generally regarded "fastest" (lightweight?) custom ROM out there that I could put on for him to extend the usability a bit?
Thanks...
slimkat slimlp builds are one of the most lightest and speed efficient roms.
Aosp builds are the minimalist builds, pure stock android experience.
Omni builds are good too, with little more features and oc kernel.
Generally CyanogenMod would get the latest updates(with bugs fixes and improvements) and then other rom will follow.
Then there is candy rom with most features than others.
Marshmallow builds are still in development.
Lollipop builds are near stable now.
Kitkat builds won't get more stability than it has already got.
Choose according to your dad requirements.
Thanks for the reply!
I went with Cyanogenmod in the end (10.1.3 just because it looked to be the most recent that was "stable" rather than "nightly" - not sure what the difference is!?!?)
Result - amazing!!!!!
The difference in speed is like night and day!!
Thanks again...

Thanks for the recommendation. Even I'm thinking of downgrading the device from cm13. It simply isn't worth the lag.
I might try some of the other lighter builds mentioned in the previous post first though.
What kind of benchmark tests does one run to know which rom is optimized for a device?
Sent from my Moto E using XDA-Developers mobile app
Try dhollmen 4.4.4 rom
It has got lightening speed
Best rom right now for osprey??

In my opinion...
Stock Marshmallow will offer you best stability.
CyanogenMod 13 is stable too and offers lots of features, you'll miss only moto display...
crDroid offers most customisation, you can try other ROMs like Dirty Unicorns, Resurrection Remix, AICP, Dominion OS, BrokenOS, Mokee...
Check ROM specifications and choose which suits best for you, Stability, more features, Resource friendly...
stock 5.1.1 runs better then 6.0.1
it's a pity
I used the stock rom for over a year but about a month ago i switched to cm13 because I wanted to try something new. I find that performance is so much better to the point that i decided to underclock my cpu to 1152mHz to save some battery. On stock 6.0.1 I had a lot of problems with the camera and torch gestures wich disappeared in cm13. As other users say Moto Display is better than ambient display but i don't miss it that much, and I think it's still a valid alternative.
RR
Resurrection Remix 5.7.3 vastal's build the best rom available for osprey
NB: None of the custom rom supports volte.
Only stock rom supports volte
CM13 works solid.
Best in terms of what? I mean, even the Nobel prize has variants (peace, science etc.)
And even then, you can't find best among all, you will have to try each one, then pick your choice. Nobody can tell you what your favorite snack is. That's my point, mate.
Broadcasted from Zeta Reticuli
For me right now is the Fluid Dark. It is really fast and stable ROM. I updated some apps for myself now it is more updated.
you mean 'Liquid Dark', agree, nice stable rom with less bloat
Hi Folks,
I just wanted to aks whats the best performing ROM for the OPO right now (in your opinion) and why?
Do you notice a difference between AOSP and CM in Speed / Battery Life?
Please always mention the reason why you think its the fastest Rom in your answer.
Thanks for your input!
Best regards,
Dominik
Install MultiROM and try the roms on the secondary slot by yourself....it's more easy and fast than ask and wait answers from other people.
With MultiROM you can install all the roms on the secondary slot according to your storage.
Very easy and useful :good:
Hi!
I've tried a lot of Roms myself.
My main aim with this thread was to get a comparison between CM and AOSP based Roms.
I (personally) feel that AOSP in general is snappier than CM. But it very much depends on the Build.
Thats also why i asked the people to give reasons for their choice

I would recommend Oxygen OS
I'm using DU: http://download.dirtyunicorns.com/files/bacon/Weeklies/
Guys, please also post why you are using which ROM.
And why you think its better in comparison to ther ROMs.
Thanks!
I've used DU which is based on AOSP. It had a snappier performance and was smoother than COS or CM. But the battery life was kinda disappointing. I liked the rom. Then there's SultanXDA's CM13 which is a beast in battery performance. Currently back on Sultan's CM13 again. It's smooth but not as snappy and performing as the AOSP based DU. But then again, Sultan has his rom underclocked to 1.94GHz for battery reasons, so can't blame him for that. :3 He did include a way to get back to max clockspeed. Anyhow, there's another AOSP based rom named Darkobas which I have yet to use but I hear it's neck to neck in battery performance with Sultan's. So that's next on my list.
I would recommend anyone to go for Sultan's CM13. Because being able to survive at least 6-7 hours would get the win from me. And it's not falling back on any features. (not as many as DU tho) That's my opinion.
Fastest: Dirty Unicorn. (Didn't try max clockspeed Sultan's CM13)
Smoothest: SultanXDA's CM13.
Battery: SultanXDA's CM13.
Leanest: Not sure what you meant by Leanest. :3

What's your SOT? Are you on a custom kernel? Mine gives out in 3hours 40-50mins. Even tho I'm always on 3G, messenger, opera mini, Music and a little clash of clans every now and then for attacks. So I switched back to SultanXDA's CM13.
Slimsaber by fusionjack.
Based on omni.
Leanest (no bloatware), battery friendly, smooth and fast.

In my country internet connection is strongly filtered and has very low speed so I never used 2G...
Because I'd like AOSP based (not CM) roms and by my experience and usage the DU is better totally for now!

If I were you I'd tried Jgcaap' and Sultan's ROM.
Jgcaap for performance and Sultanxda for stability.
Note: If you try Jgcaap's ROM seach for Setting.Out (<- user) settings. He's getting 5h sot at 46% (It's just awesome: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/development/rom-cm-12-builds-t3045053/page1911 )
There you can see the screenshots.
Good luck!
Hello,
What is the best ROM for this device? For me is important battery Life and stability. Do you suggest miui or an other rom?
Thanks
For me SMiui, but sadly the ROM is going down (Developer is stepping away), then TS - CM13 is also good, but It hasn't have an update for almost 2 months, TS - OMNI looks like is the only ROM Ive tried and is good and have support.
Slim Rom by far...
miui7 stable
I'm currently using the TS CM13.1 ROM as a daily driver. Pretty much bug free, gets me around 5h SOT every time - heck yesterday I've had data or WiFi on all the time, as well as GPS for 1 hour and a half of screen on and brightness to more than 75% on average and it lasted an incredible 4 hours and 40 minutes!! That said, my device is only 4 months old so I might be that too. It has the most features if we don't count the Resurrection Remix one, which I don't really use anymore due to the high battery consumption. Only let down of this one is that it does not look like it's being maintained.
I've tried Slim6, Mokee, Paranoid Android and Omni as well - smiui was my first ROM, but I'm assuming you're looking to switch away from miui, and if you are not, then I'd say you totally should. Plus smiui is getting abandoned I read.
Slim6 is a light rom which still offers enough features. It has the best battery so I'd go with that one if I were concerned about that mostly. Paranoid Android is also quite full of features, similar to CM in that regard, but it looks like it's still being updated by team superluminal. It's probably just a wee bit lighter so battery life might be marginally better, though you won't notice the change. Mokee is the only official ROM and it's quite full of unique features as well.
Omni is also a complete ROM which I'd say is a good middle path between Slim6 and CM/PA, but since it doesn't have a lot more features than Slim and the battery life is not that much better than the other 3, I'd much rather go with one of the other 4 if I were you, unless something in particular about it doesn't strike you. That said, a new build was released a couple of days ago, differently from the other 2 Team Superluminal roms.
Stability wise, all those 5 are perfect today thanks to the long development they've been through by now.
try use mokee rom dude , its verry good rom for me
You summed it up so well. Pretty much all of the roms above are stable enough as a daily driver. TS's roms are still maintained, but the update cycle is slower (the last update for Omni was just two days ago). I'm using Mokee currently and it has been super stable and the updates (for paying customers) are incremental which makes updating easy. In the end it all comes down to your own preferences. I'm probably going to install TS's new Omni ROM later tonight since I "kinda" liked the Ambient display feature and so far TS's ROMs are the only ones that I've seen the AD feature/gimmick to work.
Obviously, the one all the other CM builds are based on...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-4c/development/source-code-nexus-fy-libra-t3354941
Fully open source ROM and kernel, built by someone other than the main developer, and very stable. The most official unofficial CM13.1 build you'll find.
Try miui.eu for daily usage and game. No lag and more battery backup.
Am using Team Superluminal ROM right now and for my needs it is pretty good. Have tried the nexus-ify ROM but the MTP mode with USB does not work so i have trouble transferring data to my phone. with TS ROM it is fast and stable. Battery life is good, but standard really.
If you have to have more camera control and slightly better camera result, MIUI is the only option but that means stuck with 5.1.1 and it's MRA bug (solvable with Xposed mod i guess but never tried) and no native Doze. But for what it stands right now, even CM camera is giving you many option that can improve your photo quality like denoise/ISO/Contrast/Sharpness level.. except shutter speed.
using Resurrection, no problems, many kernel options; yankactive on last build, no complaints whatsoever, everything works.
if you like costumize rom, use resurrection remix, but if go for camera with stable daily use, use smiui 6.9.29, both of them have good battery life
A team will try to maintain the work on Smiui !
Not the most stable at all though, I'm afraid.
How so exactly? Please file a bug with information.
Compared with MiUI camera, Snapdragon Camera gives equally good results and even more control options. It's just that MiUI has a better UI. You can also control shutter speed in Snapdragon Camera, but you have to manually enter the shutter speed in ms for every shot, which is extremely inconvenient.
MTP doesn't work in my case, so still needs some improvement.
I haven't been testing it but lurking through its thread it just looks like there are too many issues to justify its use as a daily driver. I'm sure it's a great rom which was helpful to further develop the others that were based on it but unstable builds are just not for me.
Smiui lasts one more hour than xiaomi.eu (stable version)
What about the rom with the smallest ram consumption? (slimest rom I assume??). As I am using a 2gb ram version and I need to use those stupid badly developed ram hogging China apps
Hi, I have my OPO running LineageOS right now, it runs pretty good but I have some problems with it. Wi-Fi doesn't work good, even games like CarX Drift Racing are laggy. So, I know this question may be asked 100 hundred times in a row and I'm sorry for asking it again but what config (Custom ROM, Kernel and etc.) is best for OPO?

I've no issues with Lineage Os when Gaming,try tweaking it with a custom kernel.
Honestly there is no right answer. I've tried other people's suggestions that "work the best" and I have problems on my phone. Your best bet is to try out different ROMs with various kernels. For instance people usually recommend to try RR (resurrection remix) Rom and lightning kernel. I'm using it right now and have force close problems and lags.
It's up to the user discretion. Everyone has his own taste, I personally prefer LOS with Boeffla kernel.
I'm also on Official LOS with close to no real issues.
But one thing bothers me: i have the impression, that the camera was better on sultans cm, which i used before. currently i use bacon camera app, but i'm not really satisfied. what do you guys think gives the best camera performance on opo?
e: oh and the flash is not that bright as before^^
NitrogenOS is best, balance battery and performance and camera is good
Camera + Battery + Underclocking
Hi guys,
can you give me any recommendations on a rom / kernel config, which gives you the best battery life &/or better camera results.
I also read about underclocking. Do you recommend doing this when prioritizing a good camera and battery life?
I only use my smartphone for whatsapp and reddit most of the time. No gaming and very rarely social media.
Right now i'm using latest nightly LOS Oreo and get my battery replaced soon.
