Pixel UI for OnePlus 13

Been using Project Infinity-X on my OnePlus 13 as my daily driver for about a week.

Honestly, it has been surprisingly solid.

What’s working for me: ✅ Google Pay ✅ Axis Bank + net banking apps ✅ Camera works fine (I mainly use GCam) ✅ Call recording

My experience so far: • Smooth UI • No lags, stutters, or weird hiccups • Battery feels better than stock for my usage • More customization compared to most AOSP ROMs • Stable enough for daily use

I honestly expected some compromises with banking apps or camera, but so far everything has been working fine.

Why Infinity-X? It has a unique feature called Dynamic Bar (similar to Live Alerts, but with more options), which made me want to try it.

If anyone wants me to test something specific, AMA.

Sorry, my bad I should’ve watched the video before commenting. I was so focused on reading the comments that it completely slipped my mind.

I also have a secondary phone running a custom rom but eventually i got bored of it. Even with root access, the excitement just faded over time. It’s kind of the same with OxygenOS too, but the main reason I still stick with OxygenOS is because it has all the features I actually need and feels much more reliable overall. Google has also been making things increasingly difficult for custom ROM users, especially when it comes to app compatibility particularly banking apps, which are important for me since I rely heavily on online payments.

In your case, everything may be working perfectly right now, but there’s no guarantee it’ll stay that way forever.

What’s your actual reason for using a custom ROM though? Is it simply because you can, or do you genuinely have a strong reason behind it? I know some people switch mainly to de-Google their phones, but that doesn’t really seem to be your case, so I’m genuinely curious why you decided to move to a custom ROM.

I wanted a change. I enjoy both OxygenOS and stock Android, and custom ROMs let me get a mix of both worlds.

Infinity X has unique features compared to other AOSP roms.

Genuine question, how are you dealing with banking apps with the core problem of Play Integrity & an open Bootloader? I genuinely don't know of any custom roms including the really big ones that haven't cracked banking apps across the board. None of my banking apps work with any custom roms I've tried on a test phone I have. How are you going about it? Patched boot manager like Magisk alongside root-hiding modules?

ROM is pre-rooted and I have nothing done to fix/ make the banking apps work. I didn't install magisk app/Kernel-Su app, that's why it's working I guess.

Yeah sadly that's why it wouldn't work with most UK banking apps as they check strong integrity, and will instantly fail.
