Lineage OS
Lineage OS is for people who needs near stock android. Lineage OS doesn't contains any bloat wares. Lineage OS is the Starting point of most of the Roms. Lineage os [LOS based Roms also] can run without installing GApps, but can you live without Google apps? such as gmail,calendar,playstore,smart lock and many more.... https://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-p2/development/rom-official-lineageos-14-1-t3664052 (firlord build)
For latest Lineage os with almost no bugs [My choice - best rom]
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-p2/how-to/fp-gestures-lineage-os-14-1-t3725591 (Highway star build) (last updated: 01-Jan-2018)

Resurrection Remix
If you want all customization from other roms then you should be going to Resurrection remix rom, because it has lot of features in itself. It is based on Lineage os, Omni Rom, Original Remix Rom and Slim rom. It is a all in one Rom. https://forum.xda-developers.com/le...om-resurrection-remix-5-8-5-pranay-7-t3685229 checkout page 7 in this thread for few screenshots in RR rom.

CrDroid Rom
This Rom is similar to Resurrection Remix rom. This rom is a combination of many Roms and based on Lineage OS. This Rom also have lot of features loaded in it. https://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-p2/development/rom-crdroid-android-v3-8-t3689877

AospExtended Rom
This Rom is based on Android Open Source Project [AOSP]. This Rom has moderate customization features which is enough for a most of the users. Basically it doesn't lack any main feature. No Fingerprint gesture support. https://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-p2/development/rom-aospextended-rom-v4-5-t3664496

Final Verdict
# I don't care about customisation, All I want is near Stock
Lineage OS
# I don't care about stock, All I want is customisation !!
Resurrection Remix or CrDroid Rom
# who Cares, Just give me a rom with moderate features !!
AospExtended Rom

Maybe there will no updates for the rom that he built, this can be the reason for closing the thread.

 

[RoyanArt]

to get fp gesture on RR, i need to flash RR over LOS by FireLord. Can I use LOS by highway star?

Yes, you can use any LOS or any LOS based rom to get it

P2 has such good hardware specs for its price point...Unfortunately this device does not seem to have much love from the ROM developers. Just 2 Oreo based roms that too no active development. Maybe I should start looking for my next device...

Official LOS on the way

Oreo based?

 

[The WiTcH Er]

Oreo based?

14.1

 

[salceson]

14.1

I read here and there that people test LOS 14.1 and still report minor bugs.
I guess that we will have to wait for the official version for another couple of months.
But I hope it will be as soon as possible.

Any custom ROM without dark screen video recording issue ?

Any custom ROM without dark screen video recording issue ?

I don't know but you can check moto camera .
At back camera it has a bit brighter view and u can increase brightness of recording (from focus circle) to make it like stock with keeping the smooth recoding in low lights which isn't in stock .
At front camera , its still dark and idk if there is a version which can make us increase brightness there too.
Check it https://www.google.com.eg/amp/s/for...oto-camera-6-0-43-10-modded-apk-t3459690/amp/
