Interesting ROM. Smooth, very fast, it is interesting to choose additional settings (not many, but the most necessary). App start quickly. Nova Launcher, Phonograph, Substratum. No root, strange but no camera (Snap Camera HDR works super). Good firmware, I think many will like it. But RR is better :laugh: (Google translation)

So next week it's gonna be XenonHD.
Finally got to the letter X after about two weeks of flashing almost every AOSP ROM we got.
Man...on your Github thing it's like raining ROMs there. Xenon seems to be right in the middle in terms of custom options. Just enough for me.
It's like LOS but with Substratum and Nova.
On thing I noticed on every ROM is that on startup where you choose language the screen either turns black or sometimes green. You still can choose the languague by tapping the black screen.
Flashed most ROMs with gapps pico 05-20.
Thanks a lot for sharing your work.
Since you're searching for ROMs maybe you haven't heard about ScrewdROM (or ScrewedRom?).

https://github.com/Spookcity/ROMS-G800F/issues/10 There are many roms uploaded, maybe some you like, I'm trying to compile screwdrom, but I had some problems, anyway I'll try

Really like XenonHD. Been using it for the last couple of days and it's running very smooth.
It has Nova launcher, Substratum (which works flawlessly), internal root (but I use MagiskSU 12.0), dt2s on statusbar and lockscreen.
You can turn off the button lights and there is no preinstalled camera app.
Toast symbols work and there also are LED setting. Battery life is great for me.
Thanks for making this work on our device.
Also thanks for the many ROMs on the github page.

After using XenonHD for a week I'm pretty happy with it. Had not a single issue. ROM feels very smooth. Kernel test6 was also running good.
This is a ROM for people who don't need that many custom options. But it has more than Mokee or Octos.
Next I'm gonna try AOSGP from that new Github page, it has a lot of options just like crDroid or RR.
Hard to decide which ROM to use next. From test flashing I also liked Candy, Legend and Liquid.
---------------
@jimmy999x AOSGP has trouble with onboard Pixel launcher which doesn't work (flashed the ROM twice). Onboard Flick launcher does work.
I flashed Nova launcher and after rooting with Magisk Nova was very buggy (flickering and screen reset again and again), so reflashed Nova.
Again same trouble after uninstalling the Pixel launcher and Nova had to be reflashed. And once more after restoring some apps with Tibu.
Now after a day ROM seems very smooth and I will stay on it.
Thanks for the many many ROMs.

Wish you all the best for university. Try to have some fun if they let you. Those were the best years I had, especially when you see what comes afterwards...

Hey, thanks for the update. Did a dirty flash over the last version and it runs great.
Substratum works really fast, Magisk 13.3 works. Spookcity's kernel 3.0 also works.
Battery LED shows when charging with powered off device.
I use the app Android Assistant to show the boot time in a message and here the app icon in the message is colored in the apps color...nice (before only white).
It uses the round icons and could be compared with Liquid ROM in terms of custom options.
Device is now G800 and no F so no certified device, but I don't care.
Thanks for the many ROMS.
BTW Cosmic didn't boot and Carbon showed error 7, am3d is Liquid dark and Emotion looks like AOKP and has some trouble with Substratum crashing also the interfacer crashes.
