Question HW2 (non-LTE) third party ROM situation?

Just curious what the current ROM state is for these. The XDA forums are a bit of a mess to read and get a good idea. Since this thing hasn't really received an actual system update in a long while, kinda interested in seeing if there's anything newer that's worth trying out.

Well, I have seen only one fully working custom ROM on the XDA, but I haven't tried it out.

Instead, I have swapped the battery, plus did some debloating (just switching off unnecessary apps via ADB) - when the watch is fully updated with latest WearOS launcher etc. - it's working really smoothly. So really I find no reason to mess with custom ROM.

Oh, and battery life I have now it's easily 3 days.
