Thank you.

I have maybe kind of stupid questions:
Is there any alternative for Secure Folder? Or if there is a way to use it in this ROM?
And what about s-pen functionality? Can I type on black screen like if it's Samsung based ROM?
Is there a port for S-Health? And S-Note? Or heart rate sensor now is useless?
Thx

Erfan Efendy · May 15, 2020

Thanks for being honest

VO7T · May 16, 2020

Did anyone test this rom?

How about the camera? I need a stable camera for daily use.

Ferbee · May 16, 2020

Due to this being sourced from the lineageos source code, is it presumable to say that another bug (which is present in lineage os) is that wifi direct doesn't work, or is that not the case?

Thanks

P.S. If it is the case anyone using a galaxy watch, you will have battery drain

The camera app is same as of Evolution X 2.4, but you can add GCam port for your device.
Check out this link - https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-8/how-to/how-to-make-custom-rom-smooth-samsung-t4100001

Default Camera app is Stable for Daily.

No.
But Can Disable Google Services using https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=me.yourbay.airfrozen&hl=en_IN or using lucky patcher.
AND
If you want to Flash Gapps Separately, then it is possible. It will remove the existing Google Apps and replace it with of Gapps'.

rajdeep312 · May 16, 2020

Is android auto working
Or linux permissive

valamer · May 16, 2020

Wow, I'm still in the stages of setting things up and tweaking everything to my liking but my initial impression of this ROM is that it's very smooth and full of features, nice work :good:

How is that app different than using Titanium Backup?

The question was asked because I don't want any google services/apps whatsoever.
