What is Code Aurora Forums ?
Code Aurora Forum (CAF) is a consortium of companies with projects serving the mobile wireless industry. Software projects it concerns itself with are e.g. Android for MSM, Femto Linux Project, LLVM, MSM WLAN and Linux-MSM. Code Aurora is basically AOSP plus all Qualcomm specific enhancements and optimization.
​
What is AOSP-CAF ?
AOSP-CAF is meant to join AOSP and CAF projects into a widely usable repository,
stored on https://github.com/AOSP-CAF/. It also benefits from a few LineageOS updates.
Finally, AOSP-CAF Nougat also includes OMS theming implementations.

Does this looks like Stryflex forum to you? No? Then stop trolling the dev and let him do what he wants to. If you are having a hard time waiting maybe you would like to work on Stryflex if you think it's that easy

I tried it on a C2105. What can I say is... Well, it's a good ROM, for sure. Nevertheless, there's some bugs. Fistly, there's a "Mobile broadcast", every time the UI loads. That broadcast, however, is nothing more than another operator's network name! Sometimes it says "VIVO SP 11", sometimes "OI SP 11". Secondly, it always tells me about "navigating the sdcard".

But there are more serious issues, to be honest. One of them is that recovery won't work, at all:
* The CWM android mascott appears and disappears in less than 1 sec*
Code: 
Supported API: 3
E:unknown fs_type "f2fs" for /cache
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_locale
And then it proceeds to a recovery boot loop, only being stopped by me pulling the battery out. Afterwards, it loads the OS normally, though.

Another problem is that neither App2SD neithe FolderMount will work. But it may be a problem with root (I'm using Magisk).

However, it is it... A good work with a few perks to be reworked...

Hi,

Thanks for your review! About the issues you faced-

1. You can disable the emergency broadcasts by going to Settings->More->Emergency broadcasts and disabling all the alerts.
2. About the navigating to sdcard, can you be more specific? As far as I know, it only tells us to use your internal sdcard as an adaptable storage which is a new feature introduced in android nougat. You can discard this notification.
3.Apparently it seems you are not using TWRP recovery in FOTA partition. Kindly visit below link and flash latest TWRP in FOTAKernel partition.

[Recovery][OFFICIAL][UBL] TWRP 3.1.1 Touch Recovery for Xperia L

4. As far as I know, applications like apps2sd are not working on any nougat ROMs. So might wanna consider switching to adaptable storage feature. :)

Thanks and regards,
STRYDER~007
