latest twrp.

nway im flashing back to cardinal os. I noticed that if you have a call in progress your voice has an echo or you hear what u have been said.

screen locked will activate even though your watching movies or videos. supposedly it will activate if u do nothing.. it shouldnt activate when you are watching videos and sort of

thats y im reverting back or flashing back to cardinal os which is created also by @MaheshTechnicals

so far cardinal os has no issue at all.

try cardinal OS. maybe this rom need some polish.

maybe next update they will address the issue. but im glad that there is a new rom.
