I changed my rom last year, from stock 5.1 to cyanogenmod 12.1 running android 5.1.1.
First I want to tell you my experience with my moto x. At first, although the battery was pretty bad, it was the only downside to it. When I bought it, it was on android 4.4.2 (I think). And it worked very well, it was fast and fluid. So after a while, the motorola forced all the time the android 5 update, which I did not want to do. But I gave up and did. From there, my RAM was always full at 70%, I had delay, it got much less fluid experience. I switched to cyanogenmod, because the internal storage space was tiny, it was my only alternative. I earned my storage space. A week ago i discovered that the voice recorder does not work on this rom, when I had to record a class on a class. Some options inside settings crashes, and close by themselves. The phone started to crash and reboot itself. I've added numerous apks from suspicious sources. I uninstalled all my applications and 5 gbs of internal space is still being taken. The memory is always 90% occupied. I can not put many application shortcuts on the desktop or the phone gets even slower. I recently discovered that recovery is no longer working. I can not access the twrp. i tried to flash twrp again, but when i use the recovery option, it just boot the phone again. I think he's corrupted. Root no longer works. I can not play pokemon go even with magisk installed. The camera image is also strange, it has several black spots as if it were dirty. So I gave up the rom. But I do not know what rom to install. I wanted some ROM based on Android 4.4.2 and it was as fast and stable as possible. I'm multi-tasking and I leave many apps open at the same time. I want some definitive rom so I'll never need to change rom again.
