When you say you installed using the fastboot way, other than the boot.img, did you flash system.img as well?

fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
Then I disconnected from adb boot into twrp and flash open gapps on my external SD card that is how I did my phone first time what I want to know is when there is new builds on hear how do I update my phone :confused:

Just have a question here. I installed the first build but there were problems with black screen of death during heavy usage. So i want to ask if the problem is still present in newer build?

Also when i have it installed i noticed that this SoD occur not only when using heavy apps but also when the phone heat up a little, so is there a possibility that the new experimental kernel has some kind of temperature protection that is set too low or possibly broken?

yes, this bug does also exist in newer versions...
