Welcome to GingerNinja.
This is a Gingerbread ROM using the system.img and ramdisk.img from the Google SDK before you ask.
This is HIGHLY experimental and there are still a heck of a lot of bugs to be worked out but I will try to fix the majority of them as time progresses.
I would also like to add that this is temporary until Google drop the official code, which of course then I will update Oxygen.

So, what's all this about?:
After more than 3 weeks of hard work we're finally ready to present you the brand new v17 version. Now with an amazing Aroma installer that, based on your device model, installs the right fixes to make it fully working with your particular Note 3. You can also, if you're using the international Note 3, select from many of the leading kernels out there and much much more. We've also managed to get it even a little bit ram friendlier and have removed many UI errors and annoyances.
But no, we aren't finished yet my friends. We have also included a fully integrated OTA update system that will notify you in case there are some updates (to be found in Settings). Also in Settings there is now - assuming you've installed Xposed Framework- an Xposed button integrated into settings. And right now you're about to ask: "Well, what about Appops?". Well that's there too!
We've tested it for a long time now but if you manage to find some bugs don't even bother to post them here before you have:
A.Used the provided logcat app to gather the log.
B. Searched if someone else already has mentioned it.
ALSO:Please state if you have performed a full-wipe aswell every time you report a problem. And for ota flashing issues use TWRP.
What variants does this rom work on?
N9005, N900T and N900W8
What's missing/Not working?
Bluetooth tethering (?)
Video calling (probably will get fixed, can't promise it)
Display mirroring (update: Well it seems that our provided fix didn't fix it... We'll work on it)
Direct pen input/Writingbuddy (needs major smali editing, would be easier once a new note device comes out)
Wifi-timer(coming soon with ota)
Multilanguage (will also be available as a separate post-installer really soon)
Fully functional S5 themed google keyboard (coming soon)
Download booster/Wificalling toggle (coming soon)
Private mode (won't work because it's deodexed)
ART (same)
S5 camera. It works but it it will forceclose when trying to launch it with a sview cover. Some other functions are missing to, but most of it is trivial. Waiting for @fahadali to fix it.
MHL/HDMI (maybe tyre will be able to fix it)
Possible future additions:
Optional battery themes
Autocallrecording
Aroma installer that remembers your last choices
More air-command themes
Rebase on the newest International firmware
Optional multidpi setting app integrated in settings with respective modded TW apps to fully support true multiDPI
Torch settings
RC-ELITE app with all customisation settings in one place
So with that being said, here we proudly present:
READ THE IMPORTANT NOTES FIRST(below), before downloading!
DOWNLOAD LINK HERE!
MD5: 470d0a60e0a3f5131292462f8a60a3bb
Please take an extra note: Although this IS STATED in the aroma installer. Some users simply do not want to follow it. You have so perform a fullwipe (included in aroma) to make this ROM fully work. Please do not, as some users already have, waste our time with errors that could have been avoided by following our instructions. A fullwipe is only needed once, and won't be needed with the coming OTA updates.

UPCOMING OTA Update:
New settings base app with Wifitimer in advanced wifi settings.
Multilang - which will be offered as a separate optional installation.
17.x.x updates will all be small OTA updates!
Important notes:
IMPORTANT:
Although this should be obvious, you need to be on a 4.4.x firmware first. So update to a new samsung note 3 firmware based on 4.4.x before flashing our ROM. Don't even try to experiment with this. You'll just waste your/our time.
Regarding ROM reflashing:
If you want flash any other kernels or apps since your first install. Just flash the main v17.0 again without performing a full-wipe. You will have to reflash the latest OTA update aswell.
Regarding gps problems when returning to normal rom:
tyre777 said:
(...) MAKE SURE YOU HAVE GPS in DEVICE ONLY or HIGH ACCURACY before flashing any note 3 rom so that the GPS bug/ problem won't happen
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Regarding the THEMED Google Keyboard:
Fixed in 17.1.2.
About Xposed Framework:
Please DO NOT recover Xposed from a backup OR install it in any other way! It's already included in Aroma. IF you install it you will end up with two apks! This is because the provided Xposed apk is modded to not show it's icon. The icon as stated above, is now integrated in Settings.
Regarding the time sync delay:
This isn't our fault. To fix it, go to Settings>Lockscreen and set Dual-clock to OFF. That will "fix" it. For any further complaints about this. Go to Samsung.com
Regarding "wifi is not working" issues:
Update your bootloader to NF4 via ODIN. Google it if you don't know how to perform this task. (Of course I'm talking about the one for note 3, NOT the S5)
Regarding the themes app forceclosing:
If you HAVE NOT selected any themes at all in aroma. It will forceclose. In the new aroma I will make sure that "themes" doesn't even get installed if don't select any.
Regarding random reboots:
This isn't really our fault either. It's a kernel issue. Flash the stock kernel. Most people like @kevin_1351 don't have this issue at all with any kernel whatsoever. But some may have them. Now you know.
Regarding lockscreen related problems like pinlock issues:
We've encountered more than 3 users with this problem. In all cases the solution was to use a pit file to completely repartition the Note 3 (internal SD will also be wiped). Don't be mad if it doesn't work, but we have more and more evidence that it works.
One important thing though is that securelock time only comes up when you have a pin selected and not just set it on swipe. @kevin_1351 fist believed this was a bug due to other v6 ports having it enabled on swipe aswell. After further research though it became clear that it's actually behaving as is should. Also, it is normal in android for the screen to not lock directly after it shuts off. It's made in order to lessen the frustration when you're reading for instance. If you want instant locking you'll have to use a pin and set the proper settings. It's actually not our business to specify this but we taught it might come in handy to know.
OTA updates:
Yes, this ROM provides you with OTA updates, you'll find it in Settings. We initially had problems with this because we were using DropBox. Now @cdmvirt has provided dedicated servers to fix it once and for all. He has payed for this out of his own pocket's (for the most part) so please show him some appreciation.
Also, you don't need to keep the old OTA updates. Just keep the latest one in case you want to reflash some options.
For all issues regarding flashing OTA updates, be sure that you're using the TWRP recovery (v2.7.2.1 or newer). We will not provide support for the other recoveries (although in the most cases you can manually flash it by navigating to OTA folder).
Here is the N9005 TWRP Recovery page btw: CLICK ME!
For issues regarding the OTA download: please delete the OTA folder first and try again.
BETA channel:
With 17.1.2 you will be asked to select if you want to take part of the BETA program. If you choose that you will get faster OTA updates with the downside of them being unfinished, without aroma and may contain some bugs. This is only for the more advanced user. With other words you will have to know how to handle adb, root explorers, being actually mentally able to READ; that sort of stuff. Nothing major but still more than the average joe knows about.
Taking part of the beta program also comes with responsabilites. You'll have to report whether or not the new features and fixes work and be quite specific about the outcomes. The beta versions will contain a "b" at the end of the version number. If you choose to take part, don't complain about stuff not working but instead try to be productive.
Live-support:
Sadly XDA doesn't provide us with any chat system, which we really would love to see in the future btw. Therefore @cdmvirt has integrated a chat system in order for you to get live support from either us or other users. Follow the download link to get there.

Donations:
None of us are into this for the money. But we've got server costs (for the OTA dedicated server) to pay for and we really have spent countless hours on this. This simply is a fact. It's not a simple task to do what Samsung should have done at our place. It requires weeks of studying, trial and error and lots of coffee. We do this for fun and for the challenge that comes with it. But it goes without saying that we also would like some appreciation for our work. Either by just a thanks or by a small donation. As for everyone saying that they're too poor and/or are students. Well 1$ is nothing and if you own a Note in the first place you should be able to spend 1$ more dollar on this aswell. Some of us are students too, so we know what we're talking about. But hey, this is XDA. You're free to use it without paying a cent, but at least try to show some appreciation for it.

Many thanks to @fahadali2315 for the "Hell NO!" vote. lol and for initially helping me getting up on my own legs.
N9005 Specific downloads:
I've added the NF4 bootloader for wifi in this post.
I've also added a PIT file if you want to COMPLETELY format your phone. Use this with odin aswell. Be careful though, and read up on what it does. This is only to be used with a stock Note 3 .tar.md5 firmware. If you have pinlock issues with our ROM for example: this is needed.
The pit file is going to create a >50kb partition. With other words, is gonna make room for all types of csc. As I said though, read up on this.
Please keep one more thing in mind: The PIT will erase the internal SDCARD as well.
About the next OTA update:
Probably, v17.1.2 -or whatever version number it will have- will be my personally last update(I'll be around and help my team but I won't be this active anymore). Until now tyre and I have been the ones working the most on v17, while cdmvirt has been the one who together with stash made v16, the very foundation of v17. Lately his dedication has partially shifted to his webportal instead, and to the dedicated servers we use for the OTA and for his portal. Now when spending that much time on the rom, it hurts to see how cdm is still struggling with serverside issues and has to pay out of his own pockets in order to maintain it. Especially considering the enormous user base we've gathered in only a week. It seriously disappoints me to see people being ungrateful and complaining about something, but on the other hand don't offer the help in order maintain their desired quality.
This isn't the only thing though, I've received over at least 50 pm complaining about stuff that we don't have anything to do with. User errors or even worse, the fact that people can't even spend 10 min of their time on reading the main post through. This considering the 7 weeks we've spent on this. I've been really active in the iOS scene once and I can tell you, THIS was a totally different story. Night and day. I've heard that XDA has changed, that it has once been the place I'm speaking about. Idk. This is not meant to be offensive in any way. There are a lot of grateful and helpful people too. But they are as rare as truffle. And another factor is that I simply don't have this much time to spend on it either.
I won't leave as I said. And I will really try to help my team further, if they feel like they want to continue. But I won't put this much effort into it anymore. Because it's not being answered back.
I hope you'll understand my frustration. I'm surprised that the ones directly involved like cdm himself just take it, and thinks it's ok. For me at least this is NOT ok.
Due to time constraints and the fact that we want to obtain a bugfree experience, there still are some things I need to figure out in order to flash this OTA in the correct way. Therefore it will be slightly delayed. Maybe 24-48h.
Also it's strictly forbidden to post any direct links to our rom here. Or to make any modifications to it without our permission. Thank you.
What I'm doing right now:
-Packing the next OTA
-Kitesufing
very good work man:good:

If the fix works it should also be working I think. But maybe it still isn't fully working. We're close though.

Well it's the stock note 3 one. Of course some unofficial kernels will give you better battery life since they're downvolting/clocking. Still I wouldn't worry to much about it.

Does this mean /storage/sdcard0 is on external SD? If so, can it be an ext4 filesystem or does it have to be vfat?
Can you provide outputs of 'df' and 'mount' ?
Have a nice day
I have Beta4, but trouble with Bluetooth. Is this fixed?
I cant seem to unable 4G.. is this rom related or maybe my sim card ?
btw i'm from Portugal.

Anyone suffering with the battery performance?
I easily got a day on KK roms, and I have tried all the LL roms and they seem to do the same - about half the capacity I had before, get down to ~ 15%, then a few minutes later battery dead.
Can't get past the afternoon with normal use.
Great Build @superdragonpt, really fast and smooth! I only see that some heavy games as Asphalt 8 and Modern Combat 5 tends to be a little laggy on this and other LP builds, in KK is way smooth and no problems, hopefully this will be fixed with more builds!
Regarding NFC, so far that wasn't working for me, I can't even use Android Beam. So no missing point since it's removed to be improved, hope we get it working perfectly as KK soon.
And good news is Xposed is working really nice in your Rom =)

Hi thanks for report. I am still on latest KK S3S version and I am quite happy with it but also want to move to Lollipop as soon as possible. I use phone mainly for calls, Internet a GPS navigation. No Bluetooth, no NFC and no 3D games.
Would you suggest to try this version?
Odesláno z mého JY-S3 pomocí Tapatalk
I'm getting a good day and a half on light use, and a full day on heavy use.
So, just flashed this ROM and seems super smooth and super fast, thank you superdragonpt!
Edit: Unfortunetaly, batter drops from 20% to 0% on this version. Back on KK.
I'm using the beta III - will i lose data/settings/apps etc if I flash this over the top?
if someone can post (preferably ascii) output of df and mount, that would be nice
Funny thing about the LP build, Youtube app just started to support 60fps videos, in KK the phone runs 720p60 with charm, pretty sad it apparently don't support 1080p60, but in LL all 60fps videos resolution goes up to 480p pretty bad, don't know exactly why.
Another is that Google Now does not show the option "Ok Google from any screen" what worked perfectly in the KK Rom.
Not reporting bugs at all, since this is a Beta, but just helping to point some issues.
I know it might not solve your problem, but I've exposed and gel settings installed and I've got okgoogle turned on and it works, and I think in gravity box in advance setting there is a setting that's similar, I can't confirm that gravity box works but exposed gel settings does.
How can I make the alarm clock ring in silent mode. At night, I don´t want to here the notifications but I want my alarm clock to ring in the morning.
Settings, sound & notifications, interruptions. In here I've turned all priority interruptions off.... This works for me, alarm still wakes me, and a star comes up in the statusbar that I presume is the notification that its on.
Hi All,
I couldnt find any thread for revolution OS on this forum hence i have created my own thread. Please note I am not developer of this rom but I am very much satisfied with performance and using it as daily driver hence wanted to share it as good will.

You forget to mention customizations...
Those cool things than make your user experience more satisfying...
This is my daily driver...
This ROM is very stable, battery friendly, quick charge...
Everybody need to try this ROM...
I think it's better than xiaomi.eu...
I'm a heavy user, playing games (light games like clash of clans), listening music, watching videos and social networks...
At the end my battery usage screenshots from 8:30 to 18:00...

I am using default settings and not changing anything, Phone is not heating up while charging. Not even a bit. I am using normal charger , dont have a quick charger so someone with quick charger can share there experience. Charging speed is definitely increased compared to Masik X 1.2 (my previous rom).
Thanks!
Cant wait to unlock bootloader and give this a try... Thanks

LAST UPDATE: 04 March 2019
Hello guys,
Note: This thread has evolved a lot and now I don't feel it's about my personnal experience anymore. So I've just removed all the bits about myself as they are not relevant and appropriate. You'll have way enough information from the Google sheet as well as the summaries made by the community and myself.
Here you can find a nice spreadsheet made by @Macusercom and improved by @blinkin, the community and general and myself
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1OKpuzMbvMLZ8qtyDmbxMUCayUKM3nkuWhH00fRQqfcs/edit?usp=sharing
The spreadsheet is now in read only mode since some funny guys had fun messing with it. If you want to add something to the spreadsheet, just send a message on this thread and I'll add it myself. Don't waste my time / Macusercom's time sending PMs about getting the rights to edit it. Thank you for you understanding.
CAUTION: most of the following is outdated, and while it's usually still true, most ROMs are mature enough to be very similar in terms of performance, battery life and even features. So even more than before, it's mostly about personal preference. The spreadsheet should still be useful however, as long as it keeps being updated.
Lineage OS:(thread link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/development/rom-lineageos-16-0-t3839750 )★ Positive things
-Great performance
-Great battery life
-A few interesting features not available on other ROMs except HAVOC.
-Only custom ROM where Android Auto works.
-Privacy guard now works
★ Less-positive things (i.e. "bad" things)
-No signature spoofing
-Not as many features as other ROMs
AOSIP (Android Open Source Illusion Project)(https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/development/rom-android-source-illusion-project-t3855343 )★ Positive things
-Great performance
-Good battery life
-A lot, but not too many, useful features well ordered, so easy to find.
-OOS camera is included, as well as OnePlus gallery.
-OTA updates
★ Less-positive things (i.e. "bad" things)
?
Havoc OS:(thread link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/development/rom-havoc-os-t3817805)Feedback from @Macusercom
★ Positive things
- Currently, the ROM with the most features on the OP6. Period. (LiquidRemix has about the same amount of features).
-Stable
- OOS cam with portrait & night mode
★ Less-positive things (i.e. "bad" things)
?
Pixel Experience(https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/development/rom-pixel-experience-t3856643 )Feedback from @elmu
★ Positive things
-Great performance
-overall working well
-Low ram usage
-Bluetooth+bullets wireless work very well
★ Less-positive things (i.e. "bad" things)
-Dark theme not working properly?
-Some apps crashes/freezes?
-Camera crashes/freezes?
-Battery stats recording ambient display in your sot alltime (i hope you understand what i mean)?
OmniRom TreskMod(https://www.treskmod.ru/ )Feedback from @dante_nfs
★ Positive things
-Great performance, latency is very good with redflare kernel
-Great battery life
★ Less-positive things (i.e. "bad" things)
-No XDA thread, so hard to follow updates and feedback
-GAPPS included
OmniRom(https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/development/rom-omnirom-oneplus6-t3841813 )★ Positive things
-Great performance
-Feature rich
-Leading custom ROM when it comes to fix bugs etc.
-Great battery life
-OTA udpates
★ Less-positive things (i.e. "bad" things)
?
LiquidRemix(https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/development/rom-liquidremix-t3840206 )★ Positive things
-A LOT of settings and features
-Great performance
-Good support for MicroG (better than OMNI in my experience)
-Privacy guard is useful for privacy and it's working! You also get advanced permissions control (AppOps) which is neat.
-OOS Cam included
-[Official] so you get OTA udpates
★ Less-positive things (i.e. "bad" things)
-Lots of settings but they are a bit messy, you never know if they will be in /settings/display or /settings/liquidsettings/display for example.
-The theme is a little different to stock Pie. I don't like it as much.
-Fingerprint stops working randomly and the only temporary fix is to reboot device, until it happens again. It hasn't been reported lately so maybe it's fixed.
ArrowOS(https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/development/rom-arrowos-t3869015 )★ Positive things
-Very unique experience as most advanced settings are integrated in already existing menus. You won't find anything like "ArrowOS extra settings" and I think it's much easier to find options like that. Also, all custom settings are listed probably when using the search bar.
-Great performance
-Great support for MicroG (similar to Liquid, better than Omni)
-OOS Cam included
-[Official] so you get OTA udpates
★ Less-positive things (i.e. "bad" things)
-No vibration strength control
-Battery drain in standby is important (11% over a night). It migtht be fixed?
I will try to update this post with different feedback and will let you know about my experience on other custom ROMs.
Enjoy your OP6 and our wonderful community of developers, cheers! :good:
I feel like this thread is more about discussion than asking a particular question and expecting a specific answer. If you want, I could reformulate my thread as "Discussion about custom ROMs".

I agreed with you that this is more like a general discussion of ROM, hence it belongs to General Section.

Thank you for granting my request! Hopefully, more people will be interested by the thread. I'm going to try to test other ROMs to see if this thread can get any momentum, when I'll have some time for it. :fingers-crossed:
I use stock with xXx module run into on top of it. The stock ROM has the features I need out of the box and the module on top helps supplement the experience. I'm shooting for a reliable stable experience which is why I'm not going to branch off to anything AOSP like.
The OnePlus 5 and now the OnePlus 6 for me have the been the only 2 phones I've never felt the need or want to put a custom Rom on them. The OOS has had just about all the features I used to put a custom Rom on a phone. What I don't get from the OOS Rom I get with ex kernel manager (increase vibration strength, increase max sound and in call volume). The one thing I miss is separating ringtone and notification sounds.

Sorry for the OT. But I'd like to know how do you flash it? The module of xXx. I'm very interested in that. Also, what you say is right, OOS gives to us the features that we need

Nothing special. Just make sure you have Magisk setup and then you flash it through TWRP. The only hard part is making use of the profile file that is needed for making your individual selections. Most people overlook it and then complain because it's using the default profile which gets rid of most things

Awesome thread idea as I've been meaning to try out some custom ROMs or kernels. As a side note, this is my first OnePlus device and coming from primarily Samsung devices this is the first device I can happily say so far that I haven't felt the need to install custom ROMs on as the experience has been fluid and updates have been quick.
I'm mostly curious about one feature to know whether it is available in either ROM or kernel format. On previous devices Resurrection Remix was my ROM of choice as it offered the customization and performance I needed without much compromise. One feature that I loved having the option for in RR that I sorely miss in OOS was enabling the volume rocker to skip or play the previous track by long press.
I know this is available in the OP6 Resurrection Remix ROM, but I've seen too many bugs reported to consider it a daily driver. I've also heard good things about the Havoc ROM listing it in its description, but from the videos I've seen it doesn't seem to have the fluidity that I love in OOS.
I'm curious if anyone has tried either a different ROM with similar fluidity too OOS with this feature, or if there is any kernel available that has this option. Any information would be appreciated.

Super easy if you can grasp the concept. It's just setting a bunch of 1s and 0s for things you want and don't want

Hi, thank you for your post. I'm actually using this feature on LOS. Apart from the few bugs I've listed, this ROM is very solid. Amazing performance (I can tell you, you won't be disappointed) and good battery life as well. You should give it a try, as long as the bugs don't affect you too much.
The HAVOC Rom seems very well maintained, unfortunately, I agree, there are too many features for my simple needs and it probably affects performance as well.
Using the stock rom with francokernel installed, I love the extra features and to have a awesome look I am using the AOD coupled with viper4Ndroid, lawchair launcher,lawnstep and Google framework.

Well, it actually happened to me once. I've tried since then to use my camera and never got an issue again. Also, in between there's been an update and since the update I didn't have any bug. So maybe it's fixed, I'm not sure.
If the bug is still present, it's not ideal obviously, but it's ok as far as you don't have to take an "instant" picture (i.e. something you have to take on the moment and not two minutes later).
Also, I don't know if that's related but I didn't have any issue since I've been using the OP6T apk.
So, to sum up, I don't know if:
1) I'm lucky
2) it's the 6T apk which works better
3) it's the last LOS update which fixes the issue
Original post updated with my first impressions on AOSIP.

About Havoc OS: (thread link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/development/rom-havoc-os-t3817805)★ Positive things
- Many features even border radius of the screen corners
- Stable and no crashes
- OOS cam with portrait & night mode
- Almost all bugs gone if OB6 is used
★ Less-positive things (i.e. "bad" things)
- Notch hide will return on next build (currently not available)
- Battery life (3–4 % standby drain per hour)
- Security patch says September 2018 but I assume it's from vendor and not from the ROM but I can't tell

Sure thing! I'm searching for a custom ROM with good battery, features and OOS cam. I only used LOS for the past 3 years but I really want the OOS cam

The OOS cam is available on AOSIP, you should give it a try. I can't tell about battery yet though.
