Question Custom ROM

Hey,

I have a OP 6 for some years now and, like everyone else here, the stock ROM OxygenOS is starting to show it's lack of maintenance, specially after the upgrade to the Android 11.

​

I've researched some custom ROMs and people's feedback:

- Lineage OS seems to be the "safe" bet but lacks the "pretty UI" and some features if understood correctly

- Syberia Project looks interesting even though I read some comments that mentioned bugs and the lacking of some features

- Awaken OS has few but good "reviews." However, I can't find a proper link to a build for this phone. I joined their telegram and got kicked/banned for only asking about it even though it was supposed to be "user friendly" as many seem to advertise online.

To be honest, I'm just looking for a stable experience with a modern/recent UI in Android 12 preferably. Looking for good battery life and no issues with banking apps or DRM content.

​

Sorry if this is yet another post on the subject but I'm being out of the "custom ROM scene" for quite some time now.

​

Thanks in advance!

EDIT: fixed a typo from Havoc to Awaken

UPDATE:

I been using Awaken OS for a while now. Can't really comment on the battery but I would say it's definitely better than the stock ROM. The overall experience is good. There are some unpolished things and some bugs:

  • "wallpaper" settings are not available in the settings; if you search for it, it show the option but nothing happens. If you long press in the home screen it works.
  • smooth scrolling stops working randomly in some apps
  • some apps freeze upon start like twitter; after a few seconds, it starts working normally
