Sorry, I didn't understand the instructions that's why I am asking how to.. Sorry, I am new to this.
Yes you need to flash the ROM zip in the recovery of your choice, TWRP/Orangefox etc. If you are dirty flashing, in the recovery, first Wipe Cache, Dalvik/ART cache and System followed by flashing the ROM, GApps and/or Magisk if any. This will preserve your apps but it's still recommended to backup your apps beforehand. I use Swift Backup which works exceedingly well. In case of a clean flash you need to wipe the Data partition (NOT internal storage) in addition which gets rid of all installed apps. Do not wipe the internal storage.
Disable Magisk modules if any before attempting a dirty flash as otherwise it can potentially lead to bootloops.
There's also the OTA update way but I have never tried it.
Battery life in 7.14 continues to be as good as the previous version, under 9%/hr active drain.
Edit: Power-off alarm still doesn't work. I guess I will have to wait until crDroid 8 becomes stable enough to use as I really need to avoid a clean flash.

Does this rom supports OTA updates? Also, will I get any problems if I dirty flashes the update?
Yes OTA update is supported. Dirty flash works fine. I have dirty flashed every time since v7.4? without any major issue.
Moving from RR Android 10 I couldn't decided on Havoc or crDroid. After trying both crDroid is clearly further along. Been using for a day now and has a huge selection of customisations and seems nice and stable. Thank you.
Okay, maybe i'll try the dirty flashing. Will it wipe everything on my device? Sorry for asking so many questions.
I already flashed it but with one problem. It seems that Fast charging doesn't work properly. I use a 18w QC-capable charger. It's maximum speed of charging are on 11w but only for a matter of seconds.
I have no issues in 11-12W being sustained for long periods. Could have been higher as I had limited max. charging current to 2.8A.
No idea. Mostly depends on temps. I intend to use the original battery for as long as possible so I go the other way actually.
Hello, I've done a completely clean install of this build as I wanted to try degoogling my device. Everything seems to be working fine except for two things:
1. As I've mentioned before, when the phone is first turned on, long pressing quick settings tiles, or pressing quick settings shortcuts causes the System UI to crash. Weirdly, after about 5 minutes, they start to work normally. Very strange.
Log: https://paste.crdroid.net/kDC9jn
EDIT: I've discovered that this occurs when I hide the navigation bar via CrDroid settings.
2. When I make or receive a phone call and use the speakerphone/loudspeaker function, people can't hear me. This happens in every app I've tested. When I turn off speakerphone, they can hear me normally.
I checked permissions and everything is normal. I've tried multiple clean installs, to no avail.
This is frustrating, as it means I can't safely use my phone while driving.

As crDroid doesn't enforce encryption, you'll have to flash a special flashable zip in recovery in order to run encrypted
Please follow steps below
Warning Warning Warning --- This works only on clean flash
1. Flash crDroid.zip in recovery
2. Mount vendor partition in recovery (for some reason is not mounting with newer TWRP)
3. Flash encrypt zip
4. Reboot to system
Note:
The encrypt zip needs to be flashed after every update
So flash crDroid zip and follow with encrypt zip
Note2:
Recovery that is able to decrypt data is required in order to see data while booted to recovery
