List of available third party ROMs for the ZTE Axon 7

[QAM]

Hola

Below is a list of third party ROMs that I have found both on XDA and elsewhere. I am in no way associated to any ROM development or developer suffice to say I do have my own preferences.

I have tried to list either the XDA page, or external sites from which the ROM is associated with. If I can't find an official XDA link or external site, I may just list the download link.

Hopefully the ROMs that are only available via a download page will not give rise to any issues from the developer.

All ROMs are based Android v7.x Nougat.

And of course - our greatest thanks to all associated developers, maintainers, cooks, and other folks who assisted us regular users - we're looking at you DrakenFX, musicman5844, among others!

I flashed DARK ROM not knowing one single thing about it. We don't have a thread and I didn't see a Google+ footprint (yet).
ROM is totally bare as far as apps go. Nothing there but AudioFX, files, and Settings. Not even a launcher.
At first I thought it was broken but then realized it was probably by design. Leaving it up to the user to provide their own apps. Nothing needs to be uninstalled, disabled, or frozen (as some folks like to do).
Currently I have a mostly transparent setup (themes, TBO Clear apps, etc.).
Searching some more I found the Nexus5 thread for this ROM that details its features. It apparently has signature spoofing support making it ideal for microG / NanoMod.

The dev does provide his own gapps and extras in the OP. Full support for Viper even with Enforcing.

Found the the following thread after already being setup with it.

Hi. I builded LineageOMS ROM. This is my original thread. You can add first message if you want.

Hi, I'd like to ask which ROM would you recommend

I used to have nexus phone and I loved it. What I'd like the most is stable experience with solid set of features. I don't need root. I don't need the high customisation but just stability and solidness. I want all the features to be working straight after flashing the ROM. I would like to have audio on quality like in the stock ROM. What would you recommend? I don't want to test all the ROMs.

Good support with ota updates is important too.
