No android phone has a decent custom ROM scene, let alone a great one. All these ROMs do is changing the wallpaper to some anime character and overclocking the device.
Enjoy no contactless payments, no support for bank, transportation tickets, ID apps etc.
On a custom ROM your phone is essentially a leisure tablet, but even then you can forget majority of games working and limited widevine support means it sucks for Netflix.
Yes, you can make some of these work, but not only does it consume lots of time, it has to be done regularly.
Plus all the launchers I’ve seen so far, all the options available are just crap compared to any OEM skin
I wish there was at least one good ROM, but there never will be, it is only getting way worse each year
You make a fair point but it’s not all doom and gloom. Custom ROMs are a great to way to boost an old phone and run it a bit longer. Your use cases are definitely not mine hence I had a great experience using custom ROMs for the past 4yrs. Agree on it being a time taking process.
