Note: Candy 8.1 is no longer maintained, as I no longer have the device. I recommend using Official LineageOS 15.1
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.
