/*
* We are not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
* do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at us for messing up your device, We will laugh at you.
* It is your fault because you chose to do all the modifications on your device.
* Remember projects like these and the work done on them is a hobby to the
* contributors and the team members, no one is working for you nor is getting paid for it.

*/ABOUT
ArrowOS is an Android Open Source Project-based Android mobile operating system started with the aim of keeping things simple, clean, neat, and organized, both for the Android system and users. We added features that will be helpful in the long run, while aiming to deliver smooth performance and longer battery life. We understand the pain of unnecessary and sometimes rarely used mods/features being shipped with custom ROMs nowadays which may end up causing battery drains and/or memory leaks & crashes. This is being strictly avoided on our side keeping everything to a bare minimum, delivering stable performance all the time without destroying the AOSP interface. With users getting more used to tweaks and features, we added just the right features and customisations that will be actually USEFUL at the end of the day.

WHAT WORKS?
- Almost everything (boots, RIL, calls/sms, mobile data, volte/vowifi, wifi, bluetooth, gps, audio, camera, fingerprint, DT2W, wifi display, NFC on willow, etc)
WHAT DOESN'T WORK?
- You tell me
* MiuiCamera and XiaomiParts included
* QuicksilveR kernel v2.5 (latest) included
* Latest Android 11 firmware required
* Encryption is enabled by default
* SELinux is enforcing and SafetyNet passes
* Ginkgo builds are unified for both ginkgo and willow.
