About Project:

Cardinal-AOSP is a Custom ROM which was initially based on AOSPB, then was later rebased to AOSP-RRO, to get better compatibility with most of the devices. Now we are based on AOSP on Oreo. The main aim of this ROM is to bring stock AOSP experience as much as possible while maintaining performance, smoothness and good battery backup. I hope that you'll all love this project, and help us, shape it even better. Meanwhile, all of our sources are publicly available on our GitHub. We also have our own Google+ Community, where you can post queries and connect with us. Hope like our work on Cardinal-AOSP.

Reporting Issues!

  • Grab a logcat if you face any bugs. (Attach it with proper description).
  • If it is 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).
  • 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.
  • Please look onto the issue and google it and if still you couldnt find something helpful just drop a message here!

I set it up with microG. It resisted a bit signature spoofing check, but after a treatment with an app that can not be named here it worked. It does not have as many features as RR or Havoc, though most of the relevant features are there. To me it seems the developers put reliability and lower memory footprint above seldom used features and bling bling.

They are all not bad for a relatively early stage of our device. For those interested in a smaller and efficient setup, you guys ought to try it.
