This is where you get updates
If anyone is interested in locking bootloader on this rom and getting rid of any warning messages, i.e., you will have a boot like on stock OEM rom, contact me via PM.
Android 9 offers FBE (file based encryption forced) by default. Jaguar offers FDE (full disk encryption - not forced) by default with FBE as an option. Therefore, there are 3 choices users face: No encryption; FBE; or FDE. Jaguar, as mentioned above, by default, offers 'FDE, which is not forced, which means, you boot un-encrypted, but later, you can encrypt within Settings. That means, if you want to stay un-encrypted or encrypt within Settings, you don't need any extra steps. So, I am going to scream below, so that hopefully this time most would understand:
1. If you want no encryption, NO EXTRA STEPS REQUIRED, JUST FLASH THE ROM!
2. If you want FDE, NO EXTRA STEPS REQUIRED, JUST FLASH THE ROM! YOU CAN ENCRYPT WITHIN SETTINGS LATER! THE SAME APPLIES, IF YOU WERE ENCRYPTED FDE ON ANOTHER PIE ROM! IN THIS CASE, JUST BOOT, AS YOU ARE ALREADY FDE ENCRYPTED!
3. If you want FBE or already encrypted FBE on another Pie rom, EXTRA STEP IS REQUIRED: FLASH MY 'FBE FORCE-ENCRYPT' ADDON RIGHT AFTER THE ROM AND BEFORE REBOOT. YOU WILL HAVE TO FLASH THAT ADDON EVERY TIME AFTER UPGRADING AND BEFORE REBOOTING! IF YOU DON'T, YOU WON'T BOOT, BECAUSE SYSTEM EXPECTS FDE, BUT YOU ARE ON FBE! That's all.
TWRP BACKUP:
Never backup and never restore System or Vendor IMAGES, backup and restore partitions/drives only. I don't know why images are shown in TWRP at all. If you restore system or vendor image, you will soft brick your phone, which may require flashing stock in EDL mode. Also, if you are FBE encrypted, never touch any lockscreen.db files in /data/system/. If you do, you will screw encryption.
Flashing Instructions.
1. Dirty flashing means flashing the rom without wiping anything. Normally, you don't need to do anything else, as both Magisk and Gapps have survival addons.
2. Clean flash means: wiping System/Vendor/Data/Dalvik/Cache; flashing rom; flashing Gapps (optional) and rebooting; then back to TWRP to flash Magisk (also optional).

February 11: Rom updated
THIS VERSION IS FDE - ENCRYPTION NOT FORCED by DEFAULT. I have also posted 2 encryption addons (post #4) for those who want FBE enforced or not enforced. In any case, there is no need for 'no_verity' patch any longer.
1. February security patches
2. Fixed non-booting without magisk
3. FDE encryption (as opposed to FBE) - you don't need to flash 'No_Verity'
Instructions for V2:
9.0.2 or 9.0.3 firmware
1. If you are encrypted on Oreo, you must do factory reset in TWRP where you type 'yes' to confirm. After that reboot in TWRP again
2. Wipe System/Data/InternalSD/Cache/Dalvik/Vendor
3. If you want to stay de-crypted with an option to encrypt FBE later on: flash the rom; flash 'fbe-no-forced-encryption; Flash Gapps and Reboot.
4. If you want FDE or no encryption, follow the previous step, but skip flashing addon.
5. Back to TWRP and flash Magisk 18 or 18.1
You are not encrypted by default in this version. You don't need 'no verity'. You can encrypt FDE within settings
