CalyxOS on my Pixel 6a. It works well for my needs with very little compromise.

Evolution X

I miss LineageOS. My current nokia has next to no scene. The thing I miss the most is holding the volume keys as prev/fwd buttons.

None because blackberry locked the bootloader :(

Using GraphineOS on a Pixel 6. It's very nice! I haven't had any problems with it.

GrapheneOS on a Pixel 6a and iOS on an iPhone in the other pocket lol

I miss custom ROMs. I haven't messed with them since 4.4 KitKat.

I'm running a pixel 4a 5g and have thought about switching to a custom ROM. I'm a Linux user and big open source software fan. Privacy is a plus, but I don't know if I need Fort Knox levels of privacy. What custom Roms out there would be a good fit for me? Many thanks in advance

Lineage OS on my pixel 5. I'm looking to set up my environment so I can build and sign my ROM that way I can lock the bootloader.

I have Arrow OS A12L on my Cepheus, been quite good so far.

GrapheneOS on my Pixel 5, and I highly recommend it!

Also, it's "operating system". Not "ROM".

First I tried iode but after a short trip to Ubuntu Mobile I decided to try Calyx. Runs fine on my Fairphone

Grapheneos for years now

/e/OS - I bought a cheap Poco X3 pro, that was probably cheap because they show ads inside the OS. So now I got to have a cheap phone that's also private and fast (a friend bought the same phone, no custom ROM, and now complains about it being slow)

Unofficial crDroid with Poco X2. No real issues, although I haven't been able to get SBC-XQ working which it supposedly supports.

I'm running Evolution X on my Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro and have been for the past 3 years or so. The main maintainer uses this phone so it has always been pretty polished and feature rich.

Honor 10 with some old rooted Lineage Android 8.1 without gapps, wife has Xiaomi Mix 2s running some old Xiaomi.eu I think Android 9 with gapps (plus she has company S20 FE with official ROM), actually upgrading to new phone would bring pretty much zero benefits to my daily life besides having better camera

couldn't be bothered to upgrade to newer one, it's available for wife's one, but there is no point, if it wouldn't improve her life at all, as for me I would need to go to EMUI to have slightly newer Android but I will rather have clean Android, anyway looking for years for replacement compact phone with decent camera (4a seemed great but asymetrical punch hole and crap battery and all other pixels had either this problem or they are too big already, zenfones unreliable hardware without software support), currently Xiaomi 12 seems like best option for 400EUR

I was using Arrow OS Android 13 until 2 weeks and then my bank decided that even though i wasnt rooted and just unlocked bootloader my phone is a security risk and i couldnt access the app so ive had to go back to MIUI for now. I actually noticed on the custom rom that it only ran on V12.5 firmware when Miui is on V14 firmware which I think added APTX Adaptive and other things. So im really on the fence about ever sticking a custom rom on this Poco F3 again
