No matter what I do there is not an option to record the call in phone settings or during a call on the phone UI

Did you build the CAF kernel or is this rom still using lineage os kernel?

New update to Candy :)

Changelog
Android N 7.1.2_r33
August 5 2017 Security patches
Add preliminary OTA support (might be still broken across 2-3 more builds, until I find a better way to implement it)
Add moto camera from albus a.k.a moto z2 play but it won't be able to write to external_sd :rolleyes:
Photographs taken from the camera will appear better post processing, increased the memory cap for encoding JPEGs.
Use cyanogen-dsp audio_effects configuration (Stock Music Equalizer won't work out of the box:/ )
Other changes can be found in Settings > About Phone > About Candy > Changelog
Also in Candy ROMs gerrit. https://gerrit.bbqdroid.org/q/status:merged

Some important points:

1. Clean flash is preferred although dirty flashing from the previous build should not be a problem; however please consider a clean flash before reporting bugs properly, the process of bug reporting has been highlighted in the latter part of the 1st post (OP). Jio's infrastructure has been a WIP, so don't necessarily blame the ROM if Jio isn't working, just try clean flashing the ROM again or even flash the modem file or the firmware available here:
https://xdaforums.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/stock-rom-npjs25-93-14-4-march-1-t3608138

2. To make sure Substratum themes and Gallery apps are working fine, before installing the ROM (especially when you are coming from other ROMs), follow these:
a. Do NOT take Titanium Backup of Substratum Themes or the Theme Engine app itself.
b. Delete .substratum folder in /sdcard , Android folder in /sdcard and /external_sd , .thumbnails folder in /sdcard/DCIM and /external_sd/DCIM (/sdcard refers to internal sd card)
c. Wipe Cache, ART Cache, Data and System. (/sdcard if possible)
d. Install ROM & GApps
e. Reboot
f. Make sure that the Substratum app and the themes are updated to the latest available version on Google Play.
g. Do NOT use the Dark/Automatic theme mode available under Settings>Display (Might conflict with Substratum themes and is buggy for sure.

3. Some people have complained about wake-up lag here and on AOSP-CAF. I've too experienced this occasionally . If you are using any 3rd party battery savers or Greenify, check their settings. You're free to use another kernel, but if things break; well then ....
Long story short, the wakeup lag is rare, I'd say.

4. To get MusicFX or Snapdragon+ Audio working , install the attached apk and/or move it to /system/priv-app/MusicFX Clear caches in twrp and then reboot. Audio still works fine on 3rd party music players and Snapdragon Music Player but equalizer may work or may not work in 3rd party apps as of now. (Check screenshots)

5. Themeing might be glitchy for OmniClock, it is being worked upon by the Candy team.

some wise man once said:
make backups, wipe caches and install ROM;
face bugs? clean flash ROM.
again face bugs? learn proper bug reporting and READ things.

    Maintainence Release.

    Merged security patches all the way upto 05 May 2018.
    Changes can be analysed by seeing the commits on github.
    I set up github.com/chaOS-droid to manually merge ASB patches for Candy 7. An up to date nougat custom ROM was much needed IMO. I might try the same approach on AOSP. Next release will have proper changelog henceforth.

    Download here:

    Maintenance Release

    Changelog:

    *Merge December 2017 Security Patch
    *Based on Android N 7.1.2_r36
    *Ship with BabyFish Kernel

    Note:

    The kernel shipping with the ROM has stock frequencies assigned by Motorola, so after you flash the ROM, reboot to system, boot to twrp again and flash the attached boot.img . This bootimage allows you to underclock the CPU. On flashing this bootimage you will lose root so after rebooting to system once more, flash the latest magisk zip and reboot. This multiple rebooting is done so that magisk doesn't restore the boot image backup it generally makes. My EX Kernel Manager settings are as follows, you may set according to your usage:

    CPU governor : interactive
    Max CPU frequency = 1209 MHz
    Minimum CPU frequency = 499 MHz
    Minimum Big Cluster Cores Online = 0
    ZRAM disabled and Swappiness = 0
    TCP Congestion Algorithm = westwood
    Wakelocks disabled

    All these settings are toggled to be active on boot so that the kernel doesn't reset them at boot.

    Final Update for Nougat

    So as Nougat winds up and Oreo comes up soon, here is the final update to Candy on Android N 7.1.2 .

    Changelog:
    1. Do not start livedisplay in the first boot (This reduces device performance at times)
    2. Dexpreopt boot to speed up boot time
    3. Update to Candy v6.0 Final.
    4. Other changes can be found here: https://gerrit.bbqdroid.org/#/q/status:merged

    Broke the OTA accidentally but yes it will be useful for the future updates on Android 8.0 Oreo (MAYBE).
