Read the whole OP! Be respectful to each other and don't ask for ETAs, it's considered as being rude!

I guess there is nothing wrong in reading facts!

-Why no "Incremental/Delta updates" Support?
->The updates we provide monthly are heavily changed and modified than the previous builds. New stuff is merged and added. So we don't provide incremental updates and recommend a clean flash.

-How do I root this ROM?
->We recommend Magisk

-Does this ROM Support Substratum?
->Google killed Substratum support in Pie. You can use it, however, you need to be rooted. We don't support rootless Substratum.

-Which Gapps are recommended?
->OpenGapps and BitGappps

-Will this ROM relock the bootloader?
->No.

-What about XPOSED?
->XPOSED is still in the beta stage. We like Xposed but it messes up with the system so before giving any bug reports make sure you have Xposed uninstalled.

-When Will Be the Next Update?
->No ETAs, please. ROM Will be updated whenever the new build is ready by your maintainer. We generally provide monthly updates with the latest security patches and new features.

-Adaway is not working :(
->Download it from here Adaway

-SElinux Linux mode changer app is not working nor Busy Box installer app is working.
->Everything is good with the sources. You should try other things first and then contact your maintainer.

No Mac Randomization

Known issue. Will fix it when I get spare time.


Please ask it in AEX telegram support group.
Thanks! The Rom is really great, butter smooth and with all the customization, only thing its missing is full disk encryption, as when i tried, it just reboots.
I also noticed that Mac Randomization is missing as well under wifi settings, its a security feature introduced with Android 10, if you can enable that would be great. Thanks again!!

FAQ

1) Will there be regular updates?
Atleast once/month, usually after aosp security patch is merged.
Apart from that, Ill release a new build in case of major bugs that breaks the ROM to be used as daily driver.

2) Reporting bugs
DO NOT Report bugs if
• if you didn't perform a clean install.
• if you're running a custom kernel.
• if you've installed Xposed.
• if you're using battery/thermal mods.

3) How to report bugs?
• Remember to provide as much info as possible. The more info you provide, the more likely that the bug will be solved. Please also do not report known issues.
• Mention what custom stuffs you've installed in the rom, like Magisk modules, etc.
• If the problem disappears after disabling selinux, disable SELinux and grab logs using SysLog app.
• If its a random reboot, grab dmesg. [Do not bother getting a logcat unless you can get it just before the reboot. A logcat after a reboot is useless.]

4) Disabling SELinux
Needs root. You can disable SELinux via the following options.
SELinux Mode Inverter Magisk module
SELinuxModeChanger App
Terminal Emulator App

To disable SELinux using a terminal emulator, run the following commands
Code:
> su
> setenforce 0
5) Taking Logs
Please include at least a few pages of the log, not just the last few lines, unless you know what you're doing.
Using adb
Using MatLog app
Using SysLog app for audit logs

Bluetooth crashing for anyone else? As soon as I try to play some music through it, the service and system app Bluetooth crashes. Logs: del.dog/vihexophev.txt Then immediately the bluetooth turns on, connects to my headphones and crashes again and enters an endless loop of crashing and restarting as long as I try to listen to music. Magisk installed, youtube vanced is the only module I have.

Thanks for report & logs. I need full logs. Please check 3rd post of this thread for more details. Thanks.

You'll have to report it to lawnchair dev then.

Features requests, you should ask to AEX devs.
