Great stuff!
Thanks for setting up the renewed repo (and respect for the nice and clean manifest

), I finally got it to work for me, had to download again. Your build scripts don't quite work for me, but I've just done it the simple way with "lunch" and "make otapackage". I'm quite glad also to see that the camera is working again, on my last build I recently noticed that it didn't work (hadn't tried the camera since flashing Nougat I think). So that's great!
Are you going to push the fixes for the graphical glitch, or have you set up a fork where you're going to push the sources to? Not that they're particularly bothering me, but if they can be gotten rid off, all the better
I'd love to be able to help some with actually getting done anything with this, but unfortunately I'm only slowly increasing my understanding of how this works and my actual programming skills are close to non-existent (actually my long standing plan is to figure out a way to build a version of this for the Galaxy Note 10.1 2014, but so far I've always stumbled over weird building errors).
