Disclaimer
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.
Some personal thoughts:
You are not allowed to use this base, aroma, or any parts of it for your own "ROM". if you want to make a Q port, "DIY"
Any sort of kang will be reported without hesitation..
This project is here only because of heavy collaboration of my brother @ananjaser1211 who spent very much of his precious time on bringing this port into a decent state, so make sure to send him some love via paypal.
If you like my work and want to support the development, you can always send me a treat via paypal or press 'Like' button instead of saying it - it will keep the thread clean and keep me motivated to do more;
You should read at least install instructions stated in this post - i won`t offer support for any issues regarding installation - for extra questions read FAQ post below;

Installation steps

- Make sure you have latest official TWRP installed (download latest official for Note8 or S8/S8+)
- Make sure your phone is charged to at least 70%.
- Download the ROM, and transfer to your phone / external SD card
- Make sure OEM Unlock is ON in developer settings
- Boot the phone into TWRP
- coming from hadesRom Q v1.0, no wipe is needed
- coming from any other setup than hadesRom, full wipe is mandatory - Dalvik Cache, Cache, Data (or select wipe in Aroma options)- Flash ROM and boot (first boot can take up to 15-20 min)
- uncheck diagnostic data in setting wizard
How about bugs and/or issues and/or requests?
- First read existing issues and the F.A.Q below to ensure its not a duplicate
- Properly report issues by submitting an issue on GitHub
- provide as much info as possible so the issue is not ignored / closed
Bugs at release of v2.0:
- Common - Some camera modes (live focus, super slow motion)
- Common - Permissive kernel (needed to for hw mismatch)
- Common - Encryption (internal/external storage encryption is broken)
- Common - Flashlight intensity (due to fixing iris)
Due to the nature of this rom being a port from a different soc and these bugs being 95% hardware related, the above features have been disabled/hidden with a very small chance of succeeding in fixing them.

thank you
Yep, no hdmi audio :/
When you are in dex mode, leave the apps menu opened. It help with the speed
May peace blessings and security of Allah be upon you, I realised not sure but when i was using WhatsApp whilst charging it got overheated...but on this rom whilst recording on the same WhatsApp it starts clipping. Sorry I don't know why I couldn't help much.How can I solve the problem of overheating while charging the phone?
I meant with XDA...hope you fully understand. Thanks to Allah.@corsicanu (peace blessing of God) could be grateful to you for this from my previous rom(no more over heating) but I must depend on stock s8 as it is wrong to pressure into updating phone continously, however I flashed stock but phone stuck on "Safe Mode" please direct whether I need to do more to return s8 to original?
Is a great rom, you can downgrade to alexisrom easily... But with this rom I have lost two motherboards in a short time, I don't know if the problem is related to this rom, but whit a new motherboard (third) I've installed the Soldier9312s ROM. For me is the best rom for our phone, without any bug nor lag...I am interested on trying this rom. Currently I have the latest Alexisrom with Android 9.
If I install this rom and decide later to install another rom with lower Android version (for example the Alexisrom I have now) , is this possible? Or I can not go back to a lower Android version?
Thanks for the notification! I just saw your message a few posts before mine...Is a great rom, you can downgrade to alexisrom easily... But with this rom I have lost two motherboards in a short time, I don't know if the problem is related to this rom, but whit a new motherboard (third) I've installed the Soldier9312s ROM. For me is the best rom for our phone, without any bug nor lag...
Es una gran rom, puedes degradar a alexisrom fácilmente ... Pero con esta rom he perdido dos placas base en poco tiempo, no sé si el problema está relacionado con esta rom, pero con una nueva placa base (tercera) He instalado la ROM Soldier9312s. Para mi es la mejor rom para nuestro teléfono, sin ningún bug ni lag .
No, is android 9... if you don't find here in xda, I send the link from my cloud
