crDroid is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device also attempting to bringing many of the best features existent today. We're mainly based on LineageOS so use custom kernels compatible with them!

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.

Sometimes on the lockscreen I get a message saying 'Long press power button to interact'

Is there a way to deactivate this as it is annoying and it doesn't work, I have to hard reboot my phone everytime

I'm on crdroid from 2017 as my daily. One bug that bothers me is that when I charge it, it goes to 100% and I leave it plugged for more than, say, 10 min in idle, phone will reboot.
Is this maybe fixed in this version?
Also what is your SOT and discharge per hour when idle (normal usage, no gaming)?

Excellent CrDroid but the battery continues to drain very fast.

To investigate battery drain, look at: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1179809

and also look into your Doze: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=79135309&postcount=74

Um well thanks but battery drain is not my main concern. I think it's acceptable on crdroid based on 7.1.1. I was just wondering what is the new version like in comparison.
But to be honest it's the reboot issue I don't like at the moment...

SOT is battery drain, and someone else touched on drain, and hence I addressed that.

As for random reboots, last_kmsg would be my first avenue for investigation.

Thanks a lot, I'll look into it.

DiamondJohn, urgent help needed, please.
I've just messed up my phone. I've changed media_profiles.xml file. I thought that if I add camera profile for 24 fps the phone would allow recording in this fps. And now it got bootloop.
Anyway I have a copy of the original file, plus I believe path should be root/etc (that's CrDroid based on 7.1.1).

Could you please guide me to some kind of tutorial on how to prepare flashabable file to replace this one file through recovery?
Or if I could trouble you to create such flashable file for me..?

I personally use an app called ZIPMe for one off type zip creation or as a starting point. But you are going to need at least one phone to run it on; ie not in a bootloop. Maybe try safemode?

Always do a Nandroid before messing with your phone.

I know, my bad. I usually do.
Here's the whole story. I tried to tweak mixer_paths.xml file because the lowest volume of a phone call is to loud for me and the highest volume via BT is to low. I tweaked this file many times before and all was fine.
Today when I tried to do the similar action I spotted this other file mentioned above and I thought "let's try it". The main mistake (aside of not using nandroid) was messing with both files at the same time. Now bootloop.

Anyway, your app crushes on me on my other phone (unfortunately other rooted I have is on SGS2).
Do you know any other app of that kind?

v5.7 So far so good.
Stable and fast even in battery save mode (comparing to slow official 5.0.1 ROM). Very nice and full of visual settings (I love Amoled black theme and set of fonts).
Do not forget to turn off NFC after ROM installing - this could fix battery drain.
