Since we don’t yet have a specific community for custom phone ROMs, let’s discuss them here. Are you running a custom ROM? Which one? On what hardware? How is it?

    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

      You can normally update the firmware independently (or just flash stock then go back to custom after) as long as the custom ROM doesn’t replace it. See: https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/

      Understandable. I don’t use my phone for anything to do with money, so I can get away with whatever ROM really.
