Stable 6x Rom for daily driver? With hotspot auth bypass?

My carrier/MVNO is Cricket/ATT. Phone is Honor 6x with EMUI 5. Bootloader unlocked and rooted.
I need to find a stable, everything working, ROM that will also bypass wifi hotspot authentication.
Can anyone point me to what I am looking for?
Thank you!

At the moment, it's really difficult to advise a perfectly stable rom for using it as daily driver, by my PERSONAL point of view. Even if all ROMs are marked as "stable" in OP, browse their relative threads to read some about and make yourself an idea of what you'd like to run as daily driver. There are some bugs, while some of them is common in all the ROMs due to lack of source files, others are rom related only. I immediately look to new roms inserted in this section and until now, I'm still on stock against my motivation to going on custom. The roms that I'm monitoring at the moment are LineageOS, AOSP, OctOS, and crDroid.
Reassuming, i just still miss that feeling of safety that motivates me to going on one of the roms listed here actually; this is my only one phone, and messing up bad would be a real pain in the ***, even if I've done much experience about recovering a bricked phone due various motives, Huawei is a complicated world. Plus, custom camera quality is still incomparable to stock camera quality, so I'll stay on stock for a while, monitoring progresses on custom development. Hope to see the common bugs fixed, sooner or later... devs are surely working hard, and custom development on 6X meshed much lately, so the best has yet to come, developers are making all this just for free, so I'm looking forward for updates

Add this line to the build.prop
net.tethering.noprovisioning=true

I have not yet been able to find a ROM for the 6x that is stable enough for daily driver use. In fact, I've run in to issues even installing most of them. Currently unlocked/rooted on EMUI and even my reflash to stock was broken and EMUI ROM is missing things. I regret buying this phone.
Edit: To clarify, that is the phone's fault. Not the Devs. The Devs are doing the best they can with what they've got.

Been on eliterom for awhile now and its rock solid.

Has it been verified that this works on the 6x? In my research I thought I read where that does not work on the 6x.......But I'll give it a go!
Thank you for the help!

Does the dual camera function correctly with eliterom? (I'll search that thread)
Thanks!

If it's there, delete the ATTEntitle folder in /system/app

Thanks for all the info and help everyone. Unfortunately nothing has worked yet.
The ATTEntitle folder does not exist. That is the mod that worked on my Honor 5x which is Android 5 EMUI 4.1 So my plan is to flash the Honor 6x back to Firmware Berlin-L24HN, C567B110, Android 6.0_EMUI 4.1 US and then delete ATTEntitle.

Custom Roms (Lineage etc)

Ahoi,
the guys from f(x)tec said they would send out some devices to developers of custom roms including lineage to help development of the rom. Did this already happen? Do lineage devs have the phone and did they start porting? Just curious if that happens at all. I'm hoping to put lineage on mine asap.

There are few developers who are making Lineage OS and Sailfish OS for Pro1. Chen showed some alpha build on Twitter previously. Also, devs has the source code since last month.

What I can confirm is that there are 2 senior developers has been working on Lineage OS since a while ago. And they've made some great progress. (All the credit goes to them)
They are awaiting for the official release and can move the porting project into the next stage I believe.
That's as far as I know, and again, it's a great work of Lineage community.
PS: When I tried to flash SFOS initial release onto Pro1 I need to flash a custom TWRP, which is I believe also from Lineage OS devs.

As a member of the proto guys, I can assure you that the fastboot images will get released quickly. We have the shipping firmware, maybe there'll be simply a website for that. A working TWRP exists, but keep in mind system-as-root limitations.

Does backup work now? I'd heard the earliest port worked for flash but not backup.
Any chance you can share? I expect my phone any day now...

Backups require decryption support, but since it's a stock msm8998 platform you can expect that rather quickly. Sharing is what I'll leave to the original creators, we're informed about the shipment progress.

Don't suppose you have a link that could explain this to people who have no idea what you mean?
I think this has something to do with the fact that even as root in Android if you modify stuff in /system it doesn't stick after reboot. But I'm really only guessing and haven't bothered to read up on it yet.

System-as-root means that /system is mounted as /, but it also means that recovery is a part of boot image, so flashing it as the whole boot partition won't let you boot the system. There'll be a need for TWRP installer script.

Thanks for posting this. I've been unable to find any impressions as to the stability of these ROMs. Yes, they are testing roms, but IME there are testing roms and then there are testing roms.
Are these the former (unsupported but mostly stable) or the latter (you don't want any of your real data on it, will crash at random times and missing core functionality)?

It's been stable for some time now. I'll be posting a thread here in the next day or two and making lineage official in the next week or two.

Great to hear it TDM.
Cannot give you enough kudos after lurking in the lineageOS test forum thread and seeing all the work you have been doing.
I may even give AOKP a try once you've had a chance to look at it. Lineage is great but it's been years since the Halcyon days of having _multiple_ viable on-stock Androids!

What ROM setup do you guys use?

Hey peps!
Small and fast question. What ROM is your daily driver for this beautiful device, having a little difficult time picking and must admit a bit interested at the same time. ROM + modules/mods etc.
Have a great day.

I saw your signature, and I see that you have a custom rom. Obviously then you're not concerned with OTA's, because your ROM gets frequent updates, no?
I have my OP7P rooted, and it runs awesome as stock. As a rooter of all previous phones, I naturally want to tweak the phone with a rom or kernel or something different. Or maybe not..
Are there kernels, by chance, that work with stock oos? Perhaps that might be an option for me and others to consider.
Thank you

Since I am using magisk ROMs, they usually work after an OTA (however you need the full update while rooted). As long as everything is prepared right,shouldn't be any issues unless a big jump in version numbers.

I assume there are plenty of kernels that will work on stock. Check out the ROMs and development section to find something that sounds good to you.

xXx NoLimits or Havoc-OS? Why

Hello guys
I decided to root my device and if already I'm doing it I decided to have a custom ROM since I read people like it more than the oxygen OS.
Now I don't know which one to chose?
xXx NoLimits or Havoc-OS? And why?
I'd really appreciate it if you help to decide!
Thank you in advance!

is this Havoc-Oos rom based on stock?

No limits is not a rom itself. It's a powerful tweaking module for magisk with MANY options
I would suggest reading up on it before flashing that or anything in that case

So can I install havoc OS and on it no limits? Will be there any problem?

No limits is good as is Renovate ICE. As far as custom ROMS go, crDroid and Resurrection Remix are the best with crDroid having slightly more options. The Devs are very active and are very good at squashing bugs quickly as well.

I'd certainly try ResurrectionRemix. I had the WiFi drop out issue on havoc and other custom roms, but RR is running perfectly! No issues battery life, as for me, its farsuperior to OOS (6hrs SOT vs up to 8hrs - though your usage, app installations may vary such battery consumption) and its full of settings/tweaks. Plus updates are super frequent, like every other day and the dev/maintainer is responsive to queries.
The only thing I've found is USB File transfer isn't currently working for me, but not a deal breaker by any means as I just reboot to twrp. Plus its working for others.
So yeah, give that a go I say!

Blackcrane said:
Neither one both suck. The only thing worth flashing on this device is bliss but not the official version. And these people telling you that cr or havoc has the most features don't know what they are talking about. Bliss is the rom with the most and best features of all android 10 custom roms for any device. And if you want customization on oos then you should use rice. xXx is just a placebo that doesn't actually do anything. Come on now... Increase Network speeds..... With a magisk module haha that's not even possible. And everything xXx does anyone else could do in their own without an automated script it's basically just all build.prop changes which is super easy to do by yourself with a text editor and you can debloat anything you want from the file system with a root file explorer. Flash bliss or rice is you're staying on oos. xXx literally does nothing it's just a placebo.

I approve this message. Bliss is overall the best Rom with the best battery but it doesn't have the most features because MSM Extended does and there is no debating. Bliss and PA are the most stable. Right now I'm Stock with Renovate Ice. I find no limit overrated because there really isn't much too gain as far as performance on stock and I actually enjoy debloating, side loading apps, and tweaking on my own.

***edited***

go for crDroid. You wont find anything as smooth and power efficient while having tons of customisation.

I think the take home message OP is to give them all a try and see what suits your needs.
You may want all the features that some custom roms offer, you may not experience any of the issues, or you may not need any features and encounter bugs.
I definitely enjoyed havoc, but the WiFi drop out issue was a deal breaker. That's non existent, for me, on RR and so I'm here to stay.
So just give them a whirl yourself and you'll find what's gonna work best for you ?

Haha and what msm builds are your referring too. Cause it doesn't have now features than bliss no other Android 10 custom rom does. I know this for a fact cause I've built every rom there is out and isn't out for this device. Msm is no comparison by a long shot.

There is debating if you are telling a complete fallacy. Unless something drastic has happened in the month or so time since I've used Bliss my statement still stands. Evolution X and MSM trump Bliss in the feature department

No you're just wrong msm never had more features than bliss ever maybe you should actually flash them both. I've built both and still build Bliss. I built msm way before it was here on xda before anyone else did. MSM DOES NOT HAVE MORE FEATURES THAN BLISS! This is discussion is over.

oh my goodness, telegram is an absolute nightmare, can you imagine trying to work out a list of rom features from a telegram channel? surely one of the worst places to get this kind of information.
anyway i don't like to complain, i'm sure the rom is very good, just a strange phenomenon i've been wondering about lately. i would have thought with stock android getting so much better over the years, rom devs would have had more reason to be more explicit about what their roms offer, rather than less. oh well.

Random reboots. Think it's location based as used to happen on my Xiaomi when going outside...
Still nags about update even though it's installed..
Auto brightness stopped working needs reboot.
But I do like the roms battery idle and usage, very good!
