[EOL][ALPHA][ROM][8.1.0_r14]Candy8.1 [athene][18 Feb 2018]

This is Candy8. Built straight from source with commits from a variety of different Sources/ROMS. We wanted to give the users a fun, fully customizable ROM. We aim to add more features as this project progresses.

Code:

#include <disclaimer.h>
using xdarules std;
/*
 * Your warranty was void as soon as you unlocked your phone.
 *
 * I am 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 me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
 */

FEATURES:
.

The ROM is in Alpha stage as of now. The ROM will flash only by using my twrp build or @silesh.nair 's TWRP. Many things are broken with a lot of sepolicy denials. The following things are broken as of now:
1. Video Recorder
2. Flashlight
3. SE Linux

Be patient as the project progresses. Bug reporting should be done in the following fashions:

Is Volte working??

VoLTE here and VoLTE over there... It's a damn alpha stage ROM and you expect VoLTE to work? Think that the dev is avoiding cancer for you, having high frequency signals (LTE could be) near your brain can cause cancer, y'know?

PD: RIL is not even working tho

Great to see another Oreo rom rising! Thanks @tywinlannister7!

If RIL isn't working properly how you think should volte work without

Yes it is flash the ROM. Ril won't work but you'll get volte.

P S JUST KIDDING DON'T COME AT ME.

AS FOR YOU WHEN RIL DOESN'T WORK, YOUR SIM ISN'T DETECTED SP NO VOLTE OR 4G OR 3G OR 2G

Thanks for the Amazing Rom, gonna test it out now !!

Alejo2108 · Dec 6, 2017 at 11:39 AM

you see a good rom, it would be great to have the pixel navigation bar with its animation in the home button. Thanks

alvintimothyjr · Dec 7, 2017 at 1:10 AM

This ROM runs pretty smooth for an alpha. Keep it up. Thanks!

The OnePlus cam apk seems to be working...

rajatgupta1998 · Dec 13, 2017

Update: 13 Dec 2017

Changelog:
Fix Camera partially
Quick Setting Toggle for Flashlight now works. (Reboot needed)
Added some low CPU Frequencies.
Merged all the ROM side changes. Check https://gerrit.bbqdroid.org/#/q/status:merged upto 12 Dec 2017.

NOTE:
~The stock camera app now kinda works but gives poor performance so I will recommend to use Footej Camera after you reboot atleast once.

~Please use some Kernel Manager App to set the minimum value of Big Cluster frequency a bit lower than the one which is shipping with the ROM. My current setup involves minimum big cluster frequency as 249 MHz and the minimum amount of big cluster cores online to 0, along with ZRAM disabled and Swappiness set to 0. @lCrD512 's trick :good:

~People have reported that Magisk is causing UI Sluggishness on Oreo. What I did is flash Magisk 14.5 Beta and after booting up, reboot again. Uptil now, everything seems okay.

Glad to see another Oreo project. Hope this grows as a great rom like Invicta ?. Keep up the good work.

EmiAndroid · Dec 14, 2017 at 4:24 AM

Magisk? Magisk? Can I use SuperSU instead of Magisk?

Yes bro, u can use whatever you want! Magisk magisk is due to the fact it is systemless and provides mods are well!

This ROM is awesome!! Camera is pretty fine, I used oneplus camera and everything worked like charm except the panorama. HDR, video, pro mode, selfie enhance, time lapse, slowmotion, flash, everything works perfectly without any lag. Focus is good, minutely sluggish (you won't notice most of the time). Couldn't make panorama to work.
RIL works
Battery is pretty decent as well
No fc
Bluetooth, audio all fine
Volte works and so does quick charging (shoutout!)

For a beta build, its pretty awesome.

Oneplus camera which I used can be downloaded Here

Hope to see tonnes of customisations when you will polish the official releases...

One request (I'm pretty sure it won't happen though)
Can you plz make a flashable kernel along with other files to make FP to sleep work instead of FP to home..?
I know FP2S will break fp2H and fp2w that's why I'm not asking to add it in ROM but if you could make a flashable zip to enable fp2s. Just a request.
