Everything runs well. I always enjoy running custom ROMs based off of Lineage.
There are some skips I've noticed while scrolling in certain apps that cause the device overall to slowdown for a short period of time but that could be numerous things. Not really sure.
Pretty great battery life thus far.
Thanks for a great build!

I have a problem that when I use dark theme in the settings, and that I try to edit the QS tiles, I can barely see the tiles below (the colors are all white). I can't attach screenshot tho, is anyone else facing this problem?

Rom is still experimental so expect some minor design flaws for the time. ;)

They're many changes in rom side today probably I'll release a new build tomorrow... :silly:

Sometimes flashing GApps again and clearing dalvik/cache fixes the problem.
Other users reported that, after flashing Magisk, the problem went away.
The problem was that I flashed Gapps after I booted up the Rom, after I reflashed the Rom and immediately after flashed Gapps, the problem was solved.
P.s Does anyone know how to activate root? In developer options it appears but only for ADB
