Omg, A new rom!! This morning I flashed AOSP (Xperience was giving me a poor battery life) but I don't care, I must try this one asap!

Thanks for this man. I'll report if anything happens.

Good to see new rom - only disadvantage for me that it is arm - 32bit :/ . I prefer arm64 roms since I don't have problems with them .

Hey,

long time custom rom user but lurking here. It's great that you bring a new ROM for this phone. Everything works great as far as I can tell. No magisk boot or battery problems.

2 very minor things I would like to see fixed/added: 1) Status bar icons don't fit inside the box. Wi-Fi and Auto-Rotate flood and get out of border. Also I remember a settings button being present there without the need to expand the menu. 2) Add touch fingerprint for lock option.

EDIT: Mobile network seems to not work (no access point names?)
EDIT2: Added them manually and everything is fine

Always great to have a new ROM, thanks!! Unfortunately it's always rebooting into recovery after some few minutes, even without gapps. It even showed the "Shutting Down" system message . Also the ROM didn't find my SIM and I didn't have any mobile network, i would have tried adding access point names if it wasn't for the constant reboots. I have copied logs from recovery, if that is what you wanted I can share with you.

Very good ROM, no problem so far. Just note that the navbar at times is half, you can not see the complete drawing. The icons in the status bar solve them by shrinking the screen, sorry for my English and thanks

Thank you for new rom! Will try it :)
Edit: Ok, it reboots to recovery after few minutes. Can't use it by now.
Are you using some Magisk module? Because for me that was the issue while using other two roms. The only solution was to avoid flashing any module and the phone worked just fine, no reboots or data corruption.

I had the same problem as him, and no, even without flashing Magisk I still had the reboot...

Wipe Dalvik,System,data and cache
Install ROM and Gapps
wipe cache and dalvik
reboot
I even tried without gapps and it still turned off.
Here is the logs

New update

For you guys and others with sim card problems download the ROM from here or the OP

This build most likely fixes that problem, if not, I'll prepare another solution, thanks :)

Lets see how it works - I am a bit tired with all GSIs ...:silly:

--- Rom boots to desktop then do auto shutdown and return to recovery --- interesting never seen that before ?! (with Magisk 19.2 + gapps nano) .

Clean rom flashed again - it lasted longer before reboot to recovery on desktop - so I manage to see that no sim problem is still there :/
