Official miui, it has no bugs at all. but i have tried different roms here, maybe the best non official is unofficial omnirom.
i wonder if the dt2w is really working, and its not eating your battery.

Currently I use Official CM 12.1 and working good so far, the problem I got is, Photosphere and Panorama didn't work on Google Camera.. any clue how to fix it?

I want try PA (Paranoid Android) and still need more reference... do you have experience on it?

My Daily Driver: AICP v10 20150809 nightly + No SIM bug fix + FM fix.

Except for the unresolved HDR bug everything works fine on this build, no issues at all.

Absolutely smooth and stable. Battery life is very good as well :thumbup:

SlimBit

Which is for you the best ROM at this moment? I have just flashed SlimLP with Layers and seems cool! D2TW working!!
I completely agree.
SlimBit is lean, stable and fast, my daily driver. So far everything works fine (expect the snapdragon camera in HDR mode, but which does???)

After using a couple of others:
MIUI6 - gorgeous design, stable, but slow, resource hungry and full of features - which I hardly need.
Ivan's AOSP 5.1.1 - fast, lean, functional. no updates and regular call drops.
MinimalOS (Bitti's) - fast, lean, functional. no updates and random reboots.

Latest official cm 12.1 is fast, stable and has amazing battery. Omnirom was my previous daily driver - also superstable. Would use miui7 just for the camera, but I cant stand the notification system...

Metallium OS R1, using for last 2 weeks without any issues. Stable, fast, smooth... Very much like Ivan's AOSP. My reliable daily driver. Love the extra number row on the default AOSP keyboard, makes typing so much easier. Only bug is the known HDR bug. One of the few ROMs which doesn't have the bottom touch bug. Exceptional battery life (both standby and SOT are great).

For rom cook I prefer EOS, love the slide navigation.
But I am using miui7 08.28 now. Its quite stable, no lag, good battery. May be this time Xiaomi did listen to us

Totally agree.
I used miui v7 for the first time since its release. Before I was using different custom roms based on lollipop for past 6-7 months.
About MIUI 7 16.09.
I must tell you that its the best refined experience I am having since I bought this phone.
No performance lag ( not as fast as lollipop , but still its great.), No heating at all, Best bettery life ever, Best camera, Best sound.
Its not powerful in multitasking as compared to lollipop roms,, but still I couldnt find any problem on my side.

So if you are like me using custom roms for past 6 months,,, I recommend you to just try it..
You will feel good.
