"Release 5.1 - Funnel Cake
We're back with our official releases under the oreo platform. Over the past few months, we've taken time working on oreo by applying capability, stabilization and useful features with excessive polish throughout the system. We've come to a peak of stability to begin our official oreo journey.
To start out we've included a set of features that blend well with what we are trying to achieve. These include:
- Color Overlay Manager (ColorOM)
- New Luna launcher
- Quick Pulldown
- Extended Restart
- Tap to sleep
- Partial screenshot
- Wave to Wake
- Double/Long tap options
- Navigation bar animation
- New brightness slider
- Pocket Lock
- Battery/Notification LED Customizations
- Charging Alerts
- Support for Dash Charging
- Traffic Monitoring
- Volume Steps
.. and much more
We could spend the whole oreo cycle adding in features upon features, but we prefer to present what we currently have and improve further. Adding more stuff is what updates are for.
Device Lineup
We've deliberted many times on what devices we should release with. It's a no brainer, we deliver stable devices only, meaning having at least every main fucntion working. So here's our official release roster as of the now:
Nexus 6P - Angler
Nexus 5X - Bullhead
Nexus 6 - Shamu
LG G4 - H811 & H815
This list is small, but that's not what it's about. These devices are stable and work in it's full form. We will not release builds for devices with broken wifi, bluetooth, camera etc. We may release test builds for those devices, but they will not be shipped with official software. So if you're upset your device wasn't included, get it brought up and stable.
We've spent months trying to get help from the community, whether it be submit logs or push commits to gerrit and barely anyone took up on that offer. We got bug reports everyday with no logs and when we asked for one, there was no response. When people flashed test builds and complained, we continued to ask for logs and once again, no response, other than recommending other broken roms to other users or blaiming the rom entirely for YOUR device issues.
So with that said, the devices presented above are maintained by team members and the community around those devices gave awesome bug reports to help us address any issues they've faced. As time goes on, more devices will be added. We have a few on our roster for the new release cycle. These include:
Motorola G5 Plus - Potter
Nexus 5 - Hammerhead
Oneplus One - Bacon
Oneplus 5 - Cheeseburger
Oneplus 5T - Dumpling
The Oneplus 3, Moto E 2015 and Redmi Note 3 are being worked on and maintained by team members, but they have not reached stability at this moment. Once confirmation is given that testing has passed, these devices will be added to the lineup as well.
Website gets a makeover
Thanks to Mati and Adthiya for working on the website these past few months. We present a refreshed interface and stunning downloads page. Our website holds a reflection of what we do and what we want to achieve so this was important to deliver.
Conclusion
With that being said, we're blowing the dust off of our tools and getting back in the saddle for another exciting year for our project. Our team works hard and we do our very best to deliver you the best android experience as possible. There's so much stuff we have planned, we will continue taking our time and doing this one at a time to ensure they are presented properly. "
