Hi there,
What is the Most Stable Nexus 5 Nougat (Android 7) Custom ROM?
I try to read the latest post messages, but I don't know.
Thanks
Hey
I've been using Nitrogen OS for the past two months and can tell you that it's a stable ROM.
I've been using Fake Nexus for a while now after going through a few of the available Nougat roms and it's my favourite so far. Comes with Google apps pre-installed plus the new Pixel Launcher, the installation method is similar to flashing a stock image instead of a custom ROM as a zip and an upgrade from Android 6.0.1 worked for me without losing my data, like upgrading a nexus 5x from Android 6.0.1 to Android 7.0.
Also after experimenting a bit and getting the kernel settings right (I am using the blu.spark kernel) I got Multirom working correctly and I have CM13 and NetHunter as secondary roms, fully functional with their own kernels.
I'm pretty sure all the Android 7.0 roms use the same AOSP repo for the main build and only a small handful of customisations. It's a mater of personal preference really, all roms I tested seemed equally stable and had the same bugs (camera video issue etc). I chose Fake Nexus because it's the closest to a factory image and the only one I got working with Multirom side by side with android 6.
My advice, if your Nexus 5 is your daily driver don't use an android 7 rom as your primary rom, the video recording bug alone can be a pain.
Good luck!
Thanks for your feedback.
The video recording bug is still present in all rom ?
What settings did you use for Blu spark
Try Pure Nexus
As far as I know the Camera bug is there for all ROMS when using the stock Google Camera app. A few ROMS claim that using a different app works but personally I haven't tested them. My nexus 5 is not my main device (I have a 5x as well) so I don't use it's camera that much. Also I believe the original android 7 port came from Santhosh M as found on this rom here so if he manages to resolve this then it will be implemented in all other ROMS.
About the blu.spark kernel I installed with all default choices through the Aroma installer except the addition of DT2W. I'm also using kernel adiutor for in-ROM customisations but so far I didn't need to change anything from the defaults.
I was thinking about installing Pure Nexus as well but now that I finally have all 3 ROMS I wanted working I'm afraid I'm going to mess it up. When I added Miui from this thread it messed up all secondary ROMS. I could boot into the main ROM which for me is Android 7.0 but all secondary ROMs would get stuck on the google screen and after about a minute the phone would reboot and go straight into recovery. I think it had something to do with the Miui kernel but I never actually managed to figure it out.
So it's October 23rd, is the video and Camera bug still present on all ROMs?
I use this https://plus.google.com/109509643115521921407/posts/1R42n7pzfbP
It may look sketchy because it's not on XDA but I've been using it and believe me, everything works including Google Camera's video recording.
Previously I was on Nitrogen OS and I loved it because of the OTA updates but I don't like to have to find workarounds for my camera needs.
I've tested most of Nougat ROMs for N5:
Santosh, FakeNexus, PureNexus, NitrogenOS, BOKROM and itigr.
The only real daily driver as of today, Oct 23th is FakeNexus.
The others are good, lots of customization, but too many bugs here and there.
FakeNexus is stable, very battery friendly (some of the list above had battery drain issues) and is the easiest to install and configure, but lacks the customizations of the others.
Nitrogen is the one if you want a ROM with many features with that stock feeling, customization options are integrated on Android configuration menu.
PureNexus also has lots of customization, but on a different approach, it's more like AOSP and customization features are on their app.
Fake Nexus all the way. I used it for 1 day it is very stable rom. NO FC, noticeable lags, etc.
But I need to go back to MM stock because of the battery. Battery drain too fast average use only can hold for 5-6 hours.

I've tried most of these ROMs on my phone and have settled on Fake Nexus. It is very similar to what the Google Pixel set up is and I just love it. I've found it to be very stable on my phone.

I haven't noticed the battery drain on the Fake Nexus ROM at all. In fact, I'm staying with the Nougat ROM because it doesn't have the battery drain that I was experiencing on any of the Marshmallow ones.

hmm odd. some ppl on fake nexus thread say the same (battery drain). maybe not all experiencing it. will try again when have free time :laugh:
I agree with the Fake Nexus is the most stable one. I do get 3:45min SOT most of the time from 100% down to 1%. I only get 3->3:15 SOT on stock marshmallow. The phone is aggressively used for online gaming via Data using VPN lol
What about the Octo N ROM? So far I've found it to be really good for me with the elemental x kernel, battery life is great, I love my customization options and the ROM is smooth, I typically use lower CPU frequencies max is like 1574 so I don't worry too much about my phone dying. Here's some screenshots of my setup. I'd like to try the fake ROM tho, it's getting really good reviews and I like that.

Fake Nexus doesn't have root option and if you love customization, you will be out of luck.
how about Euclidean OS?
and which roms is odex?
I was just on Fake Nexus, loved the Stock Google feel with all the Pixel gimmicks, but I just went back to Pure Nexus as I love some customization options and want to use Substratum.. Can't stand all the white ui on 7.1 and substratum wasn't working on it yet
Hi guys,
I wrote some time ago here for a combo of rom/kernel, but then I understood the battery of my phone was dead, so I decided to change it for an lg g4. I broke the screen of g4 and it's too expensive to fix, so I decided to change the battery of Nexus 5. I know this is a dated phone, but I don't have money for a new phone or to fix the glass, so now I have to use it.
Now I ask you for rom and kernel for daily use. I would prefer something Nougat based. I used PureNexus and ElementalX on Marshmallow, the last PureNexus seems fluid and stable, but unofficial.
What do you suggest for my Nexus 5?
Thank you for all replies.

I too am in the position of having to use my Nexus 5 (6P started boot looping) I am running Lineage OS 14.1 and it is running GREAT!
I use my Nexus 5 for a year now. I tried several roms and kernels and purnexus nougat + elementalx is the perfect combination for me, since it offers the best battery life.
I never had any issues with the rom.
If you turn off gps, sync(especially gmail) and undervolt* the snapdragon 800 and lower the clock a bit( i use 1.7 ghz) you can get about 5 hours of sot!
The phone is still very fast if you dont use slow apps. Even underclocked...
* most nexus 5 work well if you set the lowest value to about 700 and leave the steps up as elementalx sets them
best wishes!
I have found in trying most of the current ROMs that if you want Sprint service you must stay with >6.0 versions. The SIM card read of data on SIM is spotty at best. Some one mentioned it is not "Sticky" will work some times and all the various patches installed at ROM first install don't work...in my case never for reboot after setting up ROM app's and using. My way around this trouble is to use a GSM mvno (FreedomPop) or Tmobile just not good coverage in my local area. I like most of the features of Ver 7.0 + roms
I'm currently running Lineage 14.1 CAF and Noncaf....I like the CAF Battery setting slider for different current/battery drain. The Noncaf can use any Kernel if you like that approach to increase battery Life. In the two N5's one has a new battery and the other old...almost a 3 to 1 difference in longevity so best choice is a aftermarket battery replacement too.
DARK ROM [OMS][Pixel features]
i'm running paranoid android and i find it cool, but however, it's the first ROM i flash on the nexus 5.
i love having the nougat notification system, plus the immersive mode, and battery life is better than stock.
sincerely i don't find useful on the spot control and navigation pie, but that's just something that depends on my usage i guess.
can't understand how to activate floating peek, nor if it's still active in this version
sadly i hoped in something snappier, it looks a little laggy sometimes, doesn't support xposed (causes bootloop) and camera doesn't include HDR+ (installing the google official camera and enabling hdr seems to change nothing, so basically is useless) but many users find paranoid camera fantastic.
i'm trying to understand if there is something faster than this without losing cool features (like notifications), maybe with something based on kitkat/lollipop tweaked?
if someone has suggestions, tell me! btw i'll keep you tuned. still loving nexus 5 and it must survive!

I'm new to using anything but stock. My rooted nexus 5 marshmallow runs fine with a new battery and several xposed modules but I would like to escape from Google surveillance. Is lineage a good choice for that? Do I just download it and flash it through twrp? Are there instructions on how to flash and use Lineage?
What rom is best for privacy?
Thanks.

IMO, yes, Lineage OS is a good choice for that. You have to install the Google apps separately, so if you want to be Google-free, you would just not install those. I've been impressed with how well my N5 runs with LOS. Better than with any previous stock version, really. I did keep the Marshmallow camera app, but that was just personal preference. LOS comes with a pretty full-featured camera app of its own.
Are you running the official aosp version or a caf customisation?

aren't nightlies more instable than the final builds?
i heard only good things about crdroid based on lineage, i think i'm about to try that
my rom queue is
-crdroid
-lineage(eventually)
-euclideanOS(waiting for a stable that should come in little time)
if anybody could give some feedback about those, it would be awesome

Theoretically, but I don't think there really are any final builds for LOS (for hammerhead). I kind of want the monthly security patches. I've just kept installing the weekly updates, because I haven't had any problems. There could very well be problems, but I haven't experienced them since installing in...March?...somewhere around then.
BTW, running crdroid right now and it's holy fast, even better than stock, you should definitely give it a try. Wanted to run the caf version to flash also the truesight, but it needed custom bootloader and radio, and I'm still too noob for this.
Right now evaluating flashing the ElementalX, that should work on aosp to get also the fastcharge
If you just flashed the rom, it's usually faster than a rom that you've used for months. The rom shouldnt have too much influence on the speed, the kernel and the cpu governor it uses have the biggest influence. Usually speed comes at the cost of battery life which can have dramatic results on this phone. On caf i could use the charger 2-3 times per day...
I suggest AOSP 7.1.2 + OpenGapps + ElementalX, it's much faster than official Marshmallow, with Magisk you can bypass SafetyNet check and use Android Pay.
Also you can replace the battery with 525666, it's 3020mAh
And you can replace the NAND to 64G
I've tried to enlarge RAM to 3G or 4G, but failed...
The replacement can be done easily only if you're in China, so...

I have found the guide for the battery, but cannot translate it in a decent way via translate
Anyway, could you link them? Are them proven to work?
i think right now there's no real custom rom that surpasses miui in performance or battery life, i honestly hate miui but every other rom i go to is worse in (only) these two category's,
do you think custom roms will surpass miui eventually?
also this is from my experiences so far so if you have a suggestion for a rom or a rom+kernel combo i'd like to hear them (and try them).
really ????????????
Yeah same like me .. i unlocked bootloader and rooted my poco
And i downloaded all custom roms .. but all have problems .. and i hope rom one ui complete cus .. just this rom will be good like miui .. cus i already trying the miui one ui . But not finished... And i try all kernels .. all charge battery very slowly.. not like miui .. fast charge real ..and i trying the mod XASP and this not working on miui 9.5.23 .. please if u found something new or good like charge faster .. and keeping battery .. will be good ... Thanks... And i sorry for my language
Mi-globe's ROM Builder is great for putting together a fairly debloated MIUI. I get the best performance and battery life with this rom, hands down.
As far as non-miui custom ROMs, PE CAF + Stock MIUI kernel, and the latest vendor/firmware is the best combo that I've found.
Next to PE CAF I like Havoc + Canting Kernel as well.

How can I find the stock kernel to flash it on pe caf? I like the rom but i'm getting low SoT on warp kernel
You are right about the battery and it's understandable that it wouldn't be that great on many custom ROMs due to the nature of MIUI to kill/restrict background apps or don't let them autostart by default.
But performance wise, I played PUBG on MIUI and I was devastated by how it performs, forget the benchmarks, they are all pumped on MIUI, but still getting better benchmark score and very very smooth gameplay on OxygenOS+eXtremeKernel. I tried going back to Stock MIUI after GameBoost was said to be improved, but it was not up to the mark in any way.
I used to run Official LOS and had fluid performance and decent battery combo on FrancoKernel before this and would get back as soon as I stop playing games
Edit: LOS+FK is more stable if you are not into games, and you should definitely give it a try. You can use Performance Profiles of FK Kernel Manager(paid app, worth it) to get more battery when needed.
Edit2: Just read the original developer's tweet in eXtreme Kernel thread, going to ditch this, OOS default kernel is also better.

If you like the MIUI flavor, you can stick to stock and debloat it. If you liked PE, you would love LOS along with Pix3lify Magisk Module and some other mods, as this makes it the same with greater performance.
I think I'll try PE with the stock miui kernel don't really want to use magisk because some games I play block it

i'll try, so far i did an antutu benchmark and got a score of 280000 which is decent tbh, i'll try to update about battery life tomorrow, im using this kernel - kernel-beryllium_global_9.5.20-ak2.zip.
I have the same feeling. I have tried almost all custom ROMs on Poco F1, but never got the same level of performance that I get from Miui. And no, I am not a Miui fanboy. Infact this is the first time I am using miui and I just hate it for the amount of bloatware it comes with. I am saving money and as soon as I have enough, I will ditch this device and go for Samsung Galaxy S10e or OnePlus 7 pro.

well i plan to use this device for around 2-3 years so i hope custom roms will get better.
well after using it for a bit the stock kernel doesn't work well for me at PE, idk why but im assuming it just works better with MIUI, im on MALAKAS KERNEL for now.
In my case, the performance only went up, when I'm using custom ROMs. I'm using CrDroid now, which is a hella lot smoother and performs way better than MIUI ever did, I didn't notice a huge battery impact. On MIUI I was using my phone for 2 days before charging, same goes for this custom ROM. My main concern with MIUI were it's features, like the hide notch function was removed in pie, and little things like that, that pi*sed me off.

It is not removed. Just a missing function in 10.2.3. Update to the global latest stable of MIUI, you'll get that option.
Hello all !
I would like to know opinions on different rom. For the moment, I have only tested the Pixel Experience but quickly abandoned it because it was impossible to change the definition, only 1440p ...
I really liked the Paranoid Quartz on my old Mi9T, is it still so good?
I'm mainly looking for something stable, not necessarily thousands of options, just stable, fast and allowing to go to 1080p (and good APN)
Thanks for the answers !
I have been using custom ROMs for 10 years on all kinds of Android phones. This is my first OnePlus (7Pro). The oxygen OS is the first stock ROM I have not customized. For me it works perfectly, and it offers the flexibility that I've only found in custom ROMs, so I have no need or desire to customize. If I may ask, why do you feel it is better to customize? No judgement here, just curious.
Same here, never replaced the stock ROM ever since the OnePlus One. They're doing a great job. Always flashed a custom ROM with any other manufacturer.
Stay stock and enjoy the awesome battery life. If you want to change it up a bit, install the RICE tweaks Rom, xxx NoLimits, and a custom kernel like Smurf.

Awesome battery life ? I've only 6h max sot with 1080p90hz, it's not awesome it's just average. I just have flash Elemental X kernel
I like OOS but i prefer Pixel Experience look, like Settings menu, Gapps...Can switch quickly between light and dark mode, true AOD
I did not understand everything about A / B slots, I have my rom installed on slot B, I can test a new rom on slot A without formatting and lose my current rom right?

then you have other battery drainers, because my battery lasts quite a while. Of course, I don't have many social media crap apps listening. I only have the instagram app and remind - that's it.
Look for the BetterBatteryStats thread, install it, and investigate what drained your battery.
Or, stay with Pixel Experience. Or, get a Pixel
Can i try other rom with A or B slot like multirom ?
I don't know how those slots work either. On my Pixel 2XL I tried that multi rom thing and it didn't work out so I don't do that anymore.
Same here. UI is awesome! I have both pros 7 and 8 best I did cuz I know we all like to play and that's we we're here. Is on the 7pro I went beta and the 8pro I changed the kernel to kirish. 8pro lasts forever and 7pro wonderful to use!
I'm looking for a rom with best battery life for QHD+ and 90 Hz. already tried OOS 11 but found it a bit lackluster, are there any better alternatives? thanks in advance

They all act differently with different usage and different kernels installed. The only real way is to try them yourself, besides that's half the fun.
I just upgraded to Android 11 and the battery life is definitely worse than Android 11 with OOS nd stock kernel. Like @hammered58 said, you'll get the difference by using a different kernel.
Other apps like UniversalGMSDoze (Magisk) or Greenify are not updated for Android 11 yet as far as I know. Android 11 seems to have changed a lot in the battery department.
