First of all THNX for the rom.

Had some installation problems:
First time installing rom it was stuck at 95%
Second time installing rom it was stuck at "next"
Third time installing rom it keeps on booting up everytime (could not go past Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge logo)
fourth time installing rom everything went normal, after 5min on Samsung logo device booted and could go on with the settings.

Will test how the rom performs but everything seems smooth for now, soo thnx again!

edit: and yes I flashed magisk!

3 things I found so far that are not working or working correctly

1. Wifi network is not saved, so everytime I disable wifi, shut down the phone, or connect to another wifi and want to go back I have to login again. No big problem only irritating.

2. Samsung App store not working (but this is no problem for me just letting you know).

3. Samsung theme is not working, probably because of the night theme? (but also no problem for me, I like the night theme again only letting you know).

Have one question "flashing Magisk or superSU is a must", but after that can I unroot? or will that end in a bootloop? because I can't use snapchat now, I think I need to install snapchat and login before I install Magisk to get it work.

Again thnx for sharing the rom, and thank your friend for me!

1.Flash so called kernel.the one I'm sharing now is latest one.and the one that is used in the Rom is old one...
Link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...led-kernel-t3865682/post78125243#post78125243
Note:- you can use other kernel too instead of mine...
2.yes galaxy app is crashing...you can delete it in system/app or privapp..forgot it's location.? But u can delete it there.
3.It's Weird issue. Other users didn't faced it but I'll let him know.
4.to use snap chat while on root is pretty simple.
Goto magisk manager tap on top left corner(side bar)
Go to magisk hide and search for Snapchat and tick it..now you can use Snapchat without issue
Note:- Before doing this you should install Snapchat freshly and do not open it..After installing it from play store directly go to magisk manager and do the steps as I told...now u .can open Snapchat and use it.
Hope it helps....?

Already tried that, but is not working. Just tried to uninstall magisk but could not boot up(as expected but had to try ;)) So no snapchat for me i'm guessing:(

edit: after uninstlling magisk manager I could login to snapchat. and then installing magisk manager again and both work fine!

And flashing your kernel from the link fixed wifi problem ;)

Thnx for your help!

You can try it...only a few times this problem is occurring.
I have installed it on my phone and it installed fine. But after first restart, in initial setup it keeps showing the screen " checking for updates" and never goes on next screen. I have checked reinstalling the rom 2, 3 times and changing the kernel but same problem is happening.

Ok first of all do not connect to internet or wifi during initial setupwizard(first boot) and check it...

U flashed wrong kernel..flash the kernel that supports ur device and go to dialer and type *#2663# and u will see a window and on that there will be a button called touchfwupdate...tap on it...everything will work fine
