I'm currently on Pixel dust.

Can't wait for Smartbar to be ported over to Pie roms as I really miss that! I am tempted by Havoc, though on Pixel Dust as it has long press back to kill.

Looking forward to App Ops hopefully coming to Pixel Dust too

Stock, rooted with Sultan Kernel running PK's script. Running amazing at this time. Great battery life and very fast and efficient.

Stock, Magisk, Flash kernel, No Navbar, etc.

I was on stock for a while but now have settled at NitrogenOS with Flash kernel on Oreo.

I want to upgrade to Pie but there is no Dolby Digital+ for Pie and that's basically the only thing that's been holding me back.

I'm enjoying my current setup for now though

I've also got rid of Xposed. Development for it seems like it's reaching EOL and just in case it is, I stopped using it to avoid becoming too dependant on it. I've also noticed my device is significantly snappier after removing Xposed. Not sure if it's a placebo but it doesn't feel like one.

All stock. Still even not flashed. All works perfect. So I don't know but I don't want often flash etc because new update and I have to do this all again. (Setup, install etc). As I said all stock.

I was until I had a random loss of sim card and of failed to recognise it. I clean flashed, nothing. I went back to full stock, then clean flash back to Havoc, nothing. Flashed Nitrogen over it (wiping cache/data), got my sim back....

Is there any other ROM that has so many features?

Tried most of the roms, all great.

Changed from pixeldust because of the edge gestures working wrong.

Now on nitrogenOS (pie, latest), kirisakura kernel, unified script. And it's all good (edge gestures working right here).

Give bootleggers or extended a try. Both have a lot of features; not as many as havoc though. I have found that both are very stable.
