Sorry, but we don't do that. Feel free to just flash a build to find out what we're all about. If you don't want to do that, that's ok too.

Just flashed the rom, it's quite smooth and sleak. The rom is very light and non-laggy as of now. Looking forward to more features and sticking to the ROM. Keep up the good work!

Camera not provided?

Flashed today. Works, no issues detected. Does this ROM not provide the camera? Or It may be caused by mistake during installation?

No, we do not provide a camera for non-Pixel devices.

 

[carlasan]

will give it a try today.. Do we need Gapps for this? What camera do you suggest? thx

All DU builds ship w/ gapps preloaded. As for camera, use whatever works best for you.

 

[Jaduhija]

Thank you for awesome ROM.

It is very smooth and made my Potter phone faster than pixel experience ROM.

Few minor issue I've noticed:
After installing via TWRP, the very first reboot is stuck on the DU logo and does not proceed no matter how long you let it sit.

I had to restart the phone by pressing the power button for about 10 seconds, and on that reboot, phone was able to boot.

On another occasion, attempted to restart the phone through the ROM and it was stuck on the DU logo once again and had to use the power button long press to trigger a restart and then it was able to go.

Notifications do not show up on the very top of the screen, for example even though Bluetooth and other icons are enabled in DU extras, they do not show up (usually they show up where the battery information and Tower signals are located).

searched camera on the Play Store and was able to install a Google camera, older version

 

[pedrohsk1]

need gaps for playstore ?

 

[bluntking]

need gaps for playstore ?

No, playstore is pre-installed.

No reboot problems here.

Been testing this rom from today morning, the only thing which i noticed broken was when charging phone while it is switched off, there is no animation or charging text or anything, only the backlight flashed and the screen was empty and else the rom is good, would appreciate a few things but not necessary-
A gaming mode which shuts the heads up notification and mutes the device or a quick setting for toggling heads up notification on and off.

I had that same problem on boot after installing.

I'm also noticing that the screen doesn't seem to ever turn off. It's black but still illuminated, which is going to kill my battery FAST.

If you go to "Settings" > "Display" > "Lock screen display" there is an "always on" switch in the "Ambient Display" section. Turning that off should allow the screen to switch off fully
