(Changelog)
GAPPS: Open Gapps Project
First time installing crDroid to your Nexus 5X, or coming from another ROM:
** Make sure you're running a proper working Recovery (current TWRP recommended)
0) Install Proper Oreo bootloader, vendor, and radio (see above)
1) Copy crDroid zip, gapps zip to your device
2) Boot into Recovery
3) Wipe cache, system, & data (or just cache & system for a dirty flash).
4) Flash ROM
5) Flash gapps
6) Boot up
Root - Magisk 17.1 is suggested. If flashed before the initial boot of crDroid, Magisk will patch boot.img to remove the encryption flag.
Upgrading from earlier version of crDroid:
The only difference between clean flash as above and upgrading is you just wipe system & cache, leaving data. Everything else is the same. ***Remember to always clean flash before reporting problems. Clean flashing is always the best method of ROM install.
KNOWN ISSUES
None yet. If you have problems report them, with logs. You can use SysLog from the Play Store to pull logs.
Don't expect any support if you:
- are not running the included kernel
- have installed any mods such as Xposed! (Seriously, if you install Xposed, you are on your own.)
- have modified system files
Thanks to:
- @razorloves - Without his DT/kernel bringup, this device wouldn't be built. I'm a lowly builder, he's a developer. He gets the credit for the device bringup.
- @monzer for testing the first beta.
- LineageOS
- SlimRoms
- AOSPA (Paranoid Android)
- OmniRom
- NamelessROM
- Many others... (if you're feeling upset being out of the thanks list just send a PM )
