Question Custom ROMs

[harkirtancr7]

Hey all the custom ROMers here. I hope you all are doing great. What ROM you are currently running on your P7/P7P and why? I'm pretty new to android root scene and looking forward to install custom ROM on my P7. Any answers would be appreciated!!

Custom ROM and ROOT is difference
With custom rom, u will get more features which lack from stock, more battery life

With root u will have more control of system ...

Oh sorry for the confusion. I'm fully aware of that but just wanted to know what people are using out there.

I'm on stock. In my opinion don't make sense to flash custom ROM on Pixel. That device is really optimized on stock. You never know when Dev stop development ROM. Yes... They always are sure never will be stopped. Many times I heard that and they stopped. I need really stable software to use daily. I used lot of ROMs. Even now official crDroid was stopped for 7pro. So I don't think so is good choice to flash custom if stock is enough optimized. Off course this is just my opinion.

I thought like you before
But battery life of stock p7 is so bad, i can't stay 1 day without charging the phone.
SOT is only about 4,5 hours. With evolution x, i have about 6-6,5h
Maybe it's the best thing that i want

I can't link the rom I use due to the rules.

You maybe not be able to link it but nothing in the rules stopping you naming it. What people then search for on Google is down to them

True, I am running Crooked. It is made by well known people, good people. I won't link as I said.

Yes. Your sot is really poor and I can understand you switched to custom ROM. My sot is 8 hours minimum.

How can u get it with stock ?

 

[fly_hunter]

you will not get any extras from custom roms if you switched from official system , users who have xiaomi devices with cutting edge specs but poor software like miui might do so , but you have all the things you want in stock android , you might flash custom karnel for more perfomance and longer battery life ,but stock equals stability and reliability especially for pixels

Don't get me wrong, stock lack a lot of things that make your phone better function

 

[fly_hunter]

you have magisk and its modules , you have custom kernels that improve battery life and perfomance , what do you want more than that , this can cover the extras you talk about , custom roms that are heavily modified than the rubbish miui skin is a headache , custom roms devs dont care much about tracking and fixing bugs , when you install custom roms you know that there is a deal , you get those useless extras , in exchange for stability and reliability
note , my words applied just for the pixel stock roms , not for third party rubbish like miui and oneui and their brothers

I'll get from a custom ROM whatever I add to said custom ROM, which, agreeably isn't much over stock, lol

I like the minimalist approach, pitch black, system fonts/icons, and battery styles are the only thing missing from stock, as far as I'm concerned.

It works though, and I love it.

No, no no, It is better on it's own, it just is, no question!

 

[wangdaning]

I have not done the hack for dm and then setting a kernel, no no, it just works

 

[wangdaning]

Crooked is pretty much stock with minimal changes, why we love it

I wondered the same thing.
Pixel devices are known for its Stock Pure Android experience.
I see know reason to install a custom rom on a pixel phone as the trade off isn't worth it.
A custom kernel ill probably flash one day but i really want to keep my Pixel Un-Rooted..
