I have been using the Lenovo P2 for quite some time now. We have all received nougat on our P2 and we know that Lenovo follows a rather annoying one update policy for it's devices. Hence I believe the future of this device is faded, at least from Lenovo's point of view and would like to know which is the best official ROM for Lenovo P2 right now?
Best official Rom for Lenovo P2
- Thread starter Tahir Baig
- Start date
A ROM which is capable of being a daily driver and has support from the developers

Best depends on your perspective of your usage & requirements.
Though I'd say
Offical LOS 14.1
which is getting weekly OTAs & monthly security patches. pretty stable as stock.
AOSIP 8.1 by Shubham
almost stable may be better in feature than LOS, I've used it for quite a while but its SE Linux is Permissive which causes some apps non functional.
Beside these two i also used LOS15.1 , RR & other Oreo ROMs they are currently under development but can be used as daily drivers because all major bugs like volte, nfc ect. has been solved in almost all Oreo ROMs for P2. But again SE Linux is not Enforcing in these ROMs so you'd need to root to make some apps run.
It'd say you'd try yourself which suits your requirements best use it as your daily driver.

Hey! Have you tried out the pixel experience ROM. It looks promising. Not sure about the updates and stuff as there are not a lot of people talking about it on p2. Hence the stability and reliability of that pixel experience ROM is unsure. Here is the link- https://download.pixelexperience.org/Best depends on your perspective of your usage & requirements.

Is volte, fingerprint scanner working fine? Also is there any other issues or bugs in pixel experience ROM?
I don't use volte,
Yes fp scanner working fine after encryption,
Not that I know about.
Pixel experience is not updated for a while and it is not going to be updated, I think. You can go with AEX or Cardinal rom as these two have developer support now. Cardinal rom is official too, so OTA updates will be available. If it is nougat, only Lineage rom have weekly updates. :good:
