Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this Android 7 (Nougat)?
A: Yes, this is Android 7.1.1

Q: What code is Oct-N based on?
A: This version of Oct-N is based on LineageOS 14.1

Q: Why isn't there XYZ feature?
A: Shoot us a Suggestion if you want to see something added. While we are not going to promise to implement, we will always look into it

Q: But all the others have..
A: ROM developers, build something they want to use. The ROM developer that includes something they won't run implies less than 100% effort to ensure it does work. As a team, we have similar goals and objectives. If XYZ ROM has a feature you want, and we don't include (or don't want to include), feel free to use XYZ ROM, or build your own custom version of Oct-M.

Q: What about root?
A: Actually this version of OCT-N uses embedded root acccess which can be enabled in development settings.

Bugs:
Bugs happen. Our testers are very good at breaking things, but no where near as good as the rest of the Android public. In order to investigate and fix issues, we need the help of the users who are going to report them. The Android OS has many nifty features to help us in this, but only if we can engage the user to assist us.

Logs, Logcat, and the Android Debugging Bridge (ADB)
Like any other OS, Android has multiple log files that are generated and record the goings-on of the system. As a user, you have two basic ways to view and pull these to send to us. Without the information in the logfiles, there simply is not a whole lot of information to go on.

Log file APKs
Team OctOs recommends SysLog from the Android Market. This application will allow you to selectively pick any (or all) of the system logs, compress them into a .ZIP file, and allow you to save, email, move to your Copy/DropBox/Cloud Storage account, etc.

ADB Logcat
The Android Debugging Bridge (ADB) is a powerful tool available from Google as part of the Android Software Development Kit (SDK). Used for many things, being able to selectively see, in real-time, what your device is doing cannot be downplayed. While there is more setup involved, if you are doing consistent ROM flashing, you really should invest the time to get setup properly to do it.

So in stock surnia ROM and lineage there is a function where the screen wakes when you pick up the phone is that in your ROM as well? Asking because I don't want to have to erase data then find out it doesn't have it

The rom is great but...

The rom has been working fine. No major bugs. But streaming videos over 4G even for a little time drains lot of battery. This didnt happen with the other roms I have tried. Standby time is great though.

Um, why is this ROM not getting more attention? Solid 7.1.1 performance and interpretation -- excellent balance of features and customization. Well worthy of listing in the top options for this device. Thanks, devs.

Mine has equal performance to RR streaming locally, haven't tried on 4G. The drain may be related to the radio interface and not the ROM. Could test by WiFi.

Great rom but my TV isn't working. Looked for the app in Google store but says my device doesn't support it. Is there a flashfix for this issue? TKS
