• If you are experiencing issues logging in, we moved to a new and more secure software and older account passwords were not able to be migrated. We recommend trying to reset your password, then contacting us if there are issues.
  • Nearly done! Migration cleanup is mostly done. There are a small number of issues left that we continue to work on, but all the heavy lifting is done. We still would love to hear feedback over at this thread and also check out the new XDA app! Thanks and we hope you enjoy the new forums, and thanks for your support of XDA <3

About Us:
Dirty Unicorns is a project that started out with no name. It was a project that was first based off AOKP back in the early days of Jelly Bean. In the early days it was just a one man show on one device, the EVO 3D. Since then, many others have joined the project and it has grown exponentially.

We have seen a lot of talent contribute to this project of ours. Big or small, the focus was always on contributing to the community. That is ultimately why we do what we do. After Jelly Bean, we decided to move to a new base, OmniROM. While AOKP was fun, OmniROM proved to be even more exciting base because it challenged us to see what we could do with a project that had different goals in mind. We learned a lot and again, gain contributors. With Lollipop, we moved to an AOSP base with a lot of patches from CAF to make our older devices function as they should. We grew even more and learned a whole lot more.

It has been an awesome learning experience and is still not over! We are still learning every day and continue to move forward. Lastly, we DO NOT accept, nor ask, for donations. We don't believe in that. Everything that is necessary to keep this project going is out of our own pocket. Gerrit, Jenkins, Websites, Devices, etc. We will never ask for a dime. All we do ask, is that you have patience, search, read and try to enjoy the process with us!!

They are working into porting it to 7.1 atm so I don't think you should waste too much time with this build.
But still, thanks for your work, I'll gladly use future DU builds if they are avaliable.

Nope, afaik 7.1 ****ed media stack in caf devices, IMO 7.1 is meant for pixel devices. However cm is doing a good job rebasing, maybe they will fix the derps and we'll see a good 7.1 build in the near future. Or we could just wait for the full rollout of 7.1 in December.

Didn't know that, I guess we just need to wait to see how stuff goes, we can't know for sure.
Also, does capacitive buttons work? Do they have backlight?
Cheers

Backlight seems to be a standard issue in all nougat Roms. You can use the app from the play store to control backlight. But the buttons work fine.

You should add that to the second post then mate, knows issues with easy fixes are fine, but we should make sure that users are aware about them, even when they don't look that important.
I'm going to try the ROM in a few hours and I will try to give a smuch feedback as possible.
I'm using a custom built DU ROM atm and the only problem are light on buttons(fixed with a play store app) and torch tile, that doesn't always work, need to test in this ROM.
Again, thanks for your wok, ROM is looking great atm.
