DPI changer is sortof present already in the ROM.
Just installed it today, quite like it.

 

[kuto232]

no 4G-LTE
working!!

Memory optimization is wayyyyy too aggressive, apps get killed with multiple gigs of memory free.

Edit: I'm starting to think this is an aggressive power saving feature in 8.

Can confirm that 4g doesn't work.

Thank you for this awesome rom! I installed it yesterday and everything seems to be working, it also has an incredible customization! I really like this rom so far, i'll see how is the battery but for now seems similar to LOS.

P.S.: for me 4G works without any problem, i'm from Italy and i have Tim (Telekom)

Figured it out, 4g LTE is disabled by default in this ROM (why???), enabled LTE and now I have 4g.

To fix this,
Settings > Network & Internet > Data Usage > Top right | Mobile Networks.
Expand advanced, Tap "Preferred network type" and select something with LTE ( the first one is probably best ). You should see that there is a preferred network type selected that does not contain LTE.

To prevent apps from being killed quick type in doze in the search bar, select the only option and deselect what should not be killed.
I considered disabling this altogether as I have the 6GB version, but I don't need this + I care about battery life.

Trying to splitscreen two apps where one is not compatible will lock up the phone as such that I need to reboot to get out of the program.

I also notice the device heating up a bit more than normal and the battery draining a bit faster.

Where can I find the "hold volume to skip track" controls?
I like the ambient screen, but skipping a music track wakes the device (due to a notification) and then skipping the song again will instead blast my ears into oblivion (which isn't nice fyi). I tried to fix this with tasker, but using doze_enable just causes my phone to lock. Right.

Did some more digging, appears there is a setting that disables music tracks from triggering ambient screen. That's very close to what I want, only toggle I'd want is that volume rockers can still change track even when ambient screen is on and active. Heck make hold always skip a track when music is playing, I never in my life held the volume rockers down with the intention to increase the volume by much.

As it's supposed to be.

I made a rum installation. Everything works so well until now.I would like to thank those who have done this work.

Another small bug, there is no deadzone for pulling down the notification bar when in expended desktop mode.

E.g. If I have moon reader open and I want to open the notification bar I scroll through (sometimes a lot of) some text.

But aside from all these issues ( which are all very minor ) I am enjoying this ROM a lot.
Thanks Firebird
