Latest stock firmware is recommended before installing this rom, even if it might work with older versions !​
You have to reboot one time after first boot to make mobile data work.​
  • Use the TWRP from the download-link for your device above (needs to be flashed from existing TWRP, or use ODIN version)
  • Download the latest build
  • Put it on your device
  • Reboot to TWRP
  • Take a full backup
  • If you want to be sure wipe the device
  • Flash the latest build

  • Reboot and enjoy

Easily rootable with the great Magisk (stable) by @topjohnwu.​
I use it as daily driver without major issues, except mobile data (see above).
I use microG as google replacement and for push-services, signature-spoofing is already build into the rom.​
If you want to use gapps, be aware that you need the arm not the arm64 builds.

And another build uploaded (see first post for links) with working bluetooth.
Mobile data is the last major issue visible to the user.
A lot of logspam that shows there is more to do and not (yet) enforcing.

Navigation gestures are not implemented (rom-side), phone-calls should work without issues (dual sim not tested, but bot slots work when using one sim).
With last build mobile data works for me after first reboot in 100% of my tests (~10 clean installs with formatted data).
One reboot is needed since several android versions, because we need to create links from old database location to the new one to make our ancient ril happy.

@All can you please test mobile-data after (at least one reboot) and give feedback if possible ?
For me it worked with last build in 100 % of approximately 10 clean flashes.
If it does not work try to switch off mobile data and switch it on again.

I installed again the ROM (clean install) i rebooted and after the first reboot it still doesn't work the phone calls (i can't listen me or the other person on the phone call) and the mobile-data

Please test the latest build from first post, this should work now.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

New build uploaded (see first post for links).

This build should fix phone-audio (I had a not upgraded repo in the tree).

Mobile data should work after at least one reboot.

    No
    he's probably busy with his daily life
    This, and no changes in rom sources since nearly two weeks.
    And I'm stuck on clearing up my repos to finally push them.
    And working on (rarely at the moment) making selinux enforcing.

    A new build with december patch will come soon.
    I finally found the commit which broke the hwcomposer.
    Mobile data is still absolutely unreliable, but drm is fixed, and it should be possible to use the netflix app (at least it installs and starts without issues with microG installed).
    7
    Finally a new build is out (see OP for links).
    The rom sourecs have been rebased, therefore the long delay and the increased version number (14.0 -> 14.1).
    Not all customizations have beem added back and you might need to do a clean flash, but you can try a dirty one before you have to set up everything a gain.
    As always a backup is recommended before updating.

    If you don't mind to stay with february sec-patch there is no need to update, I think more customizations will come, but it's not up to me.

    New build is out, pip is working now.
    Links in OP are updated as always.
    Feedback is welcome.
