Features:

Download:

Installation:
  1. Backup before you begin
  2. Format Userdata (not entire internal storage) if coming from another ROM even crDroid Oreo
  3. Format System and Cache always
  4. Flash ROM + Gapps
  5. Flash Magisk 18+ for root or Native Root Addon
  6. Reboot and profit!

FAQ:
Can you add feature XYZ?
Probably yes, but it will come gradually. You can request nicely.

Is native root added?
Available as separate addon. Once you flash and reboot, activate on below path System > Developer Options > Root mode.
This may break safety net. Flash on your own discretion.

Thank you for your continued support of v500!!!!
Edit: Dirty flashed from 4.7, SystemUI force closed at first reboot, no other issues so far after reboot.
Useless panic mode is finally gone, now I can tap the back button as many as I want!

Thank you so much @beroid !

I hope you can fix the camera in future. But since it never worked on oreo it seems to be really hard to fix.

Is there a recommend way to use microG on this rom? For now I used the official Los 14.1 builds with microG included on my g pad. Any help is welcome :)

Thanks again!

Many thanks! It's the first of my devices to run Android 9.
I dirty flashed from Oreo & I had black screen after boot logo on first boot. Forced restart using Power & Volume Down & everything working perfectly.
Everything running smoothly & the ui is very beautiful. Feels like I just bought a new tablet :D
The brightness slider is not calibrated though since the first half is just about 1% brightness, but it's not a big deal.
Please add an option for Network Traffic on Status Bar.
Here's a little video I made showing the ui:

Sadly no go for me. Even flashing just the ROM itself caused my V500 to boot loop right after getting to the home screen. Clean flash by the way. Perhaps I can try a dirty flash later on.

Try update to latest twrp ...then try again.
Already running 3.2.3-0 which I believe is the latest. Unless if there's some unofficial version that is more up to date on things than the official version that I'm not finding via XDA and Google search?

Thank you very much, beriod! I was not expecting it coming.
Works fine, one restart while configuring settings.
Clean flash as per instructions and links - ROM, pico Gapps, native root addon (root not activated unless I really need it).
Edit: Twrp 3.2.3

I clean flashed with stock opengapps and had no problems at all. Seemed like an incredibly long first boot but set up worked and haven't had any issues.

Formated user data, system and dalvik cache
Flashed Rom, gapps and magiks
All like in the installation documentation is mentioned.

My tablet installed all very fast and booted quick in to new android 9. Perfect ROM!

Thanks to beroid for his heroic work.

Just donated via PayPal, I hope a few more will do that ?

using cdDroid with microG

So I finally had time to Update from LOS 14 (microG version) to CrDroid 5.1. I made a clean install and used nanodroid to patch microG.
Results: Rom is really smooth and battery life is great. Only problem: It seems that integrated signature spoofing is not working actually. From what I've read this problem is affecting most custom pie roms. I hope this bug can be fixed in future.
Other than that a really great experience for now. Except signature spoofing and the mentioned bugs in op everything runs perfect for now.
Thanks again beroid!

Looks like it might be something kernel related that's not working on some of our V500's. I just tested BR Kernel 2.0 which is for Oreo ROMs. It booted just fine and runs fine except Wifi doesn't connect to the Internet (and more than likely no camera). I've tried dirty flashing with no success as well.
