I was really hoping for a dotos update today and you just did it at the perfect time. Thank you. What if we use this Camera app for the vanilla version??

Hi I don't know much about this rom, does it support dual apps natively? Is it good enough to be used as a daily driver?

It has the stable label so I'd imagine it works for daily driver. Regarding dual apps, I'm not sure what that is.

Thanks, dual apps allows you to have two versions of the same app on the device, e.g. Two WhatsApps or Two instagrams?

So just installed this today and using it after 6 hours (only) -
1. The rom on it's own is beta-ish, in terms of UI especially, you'd come across a few bugs/glitches. Not sure if that's due to A11 or the rom.
2. UI is definitely a step down on A11. It does much less occupyin basically the same amount of space (A11 nitpick, not rom's)
3. There are some cool features on A11, but not very big game changing. Basically it's 10.2 - I'd think A12 will be much more "updated"
4. Back to rom, it's stable, performance is good enough (not sure what to expect of such an old device as vince). Can't speak for battery backup (yet)

tl;dr interesting rom, very less customisation options (coming from Havoc), UI is minimal (A11), and I'm gonna stick with it.

Also, good job devs
Thank you!

Were you able to check if this supported dual apps natively?

whats your review on this ROM?

 

[celephrn]

whats your review on this ROM?

It's stable for a daily driver, the only thing I didn't love is the QS and how the brightness. bar is big just like in MIUI but that's just me. I went back to havoc 3 due to lawnchair not being available in R.

Nope, but

ROM seems very smooth, no WPS option to connect to WiFi. I really like this rom, only that WPS option missing for me. I might have to go back to my MIUI 11 rom as I need the dual apps option, very important for me.

very nice rom though @aseelpsathar, if you can add wps and dual apps for this in future updates i'll stick with it. Keep up the good work.

WPS option have been removed since android 10 for all devices.. thats why you don't see it
