This is Candy9. Built straight from source with commits from a variety of different Sources/ROMS. We wanted to give the users a fun, fully customizable ROM, with regular updates and security patches.

We do this as a hobby, and we happily share the Candy of our toils with the custom ROM community, for free. We use what we share on our own devices, most as Daily Drivers, so you can be confident that problems will be promptly addressed.

Thanks for your support and camaraderie. Special thanks to GZOSP, GZR-Roms, LineageOS, SlimRoms, Omni, TeslaROM, AOSiP, DU and the innumerable rest who make their source open. We can't do all of this on our own!

Donations are appreciated, but NEVER expected.

Stay tuned for more Candy!

Special thanks to GZOSP, GZR-Roms, LineageOS, SlimRoms, Omni, TeslaROM, AOSiP and all the rest who make their source open. We can't do all of this on our own.

Flashing Steps:

NOTE: You should also make sure you are on one of the most recent firmware versions shipping with your device. I'll try to provide specific information as needed, and occasional flashable firmware files too.

Coming from another rom
NOTE: If you are coming from OOS, you need to FORMAT your /data partition. This is where TWRP asks you to type "yes" to proceed, and is where you will delete all your personal files on your phone. So, BACK THEM UP!
(As an alternate method, you can put the device in fastboot, and use "fastboot format userdata")
1) Download Candy8.zip (See Post #2)
2) Download Oreo Gapps (optional - See Post #2))
3) Boot into recovery (TWRP)
4) Full wipe (Dalvik Cache, Cache, System, Factory Data Reset)
5) Flash Candy8.zip
6) Flash Gapps
7) Reboot

Updating from previous Candy8 release
1) Download Candy8.zip (See Post #2)
2) Boot into recovery
3) Flash Candy8.zip
4) Wipe Dalvik
5) Wipe Cache'
6) Reboot

-Please give first boot several minutes.
-New additions and fixes being added constantly...
[/B]

IMPORTANT - PROBLEMS/ISSUES:
If you have issues, you need to provide both of the following:
  1. Logs from you (logcat, last_kmsg, dmesg) linked to on pastebin.com or hasteb.in, showing the failure.
  2. A clear description of the steps needed to exactly reproduce the problem.
Please, DO NOT complain about problems and offer nothing to help fix it. We reserve the right to ignore you for not following insructions... XD

NO ETA REQUESTS!

FAQ
  1. As of 11Mar2018, firmware is at OB5 for OP5.
  2. You may find that you have apps FCing after a dirty flash or nandroid restore. Such apps may include Email apps, and other apps that use WebView. AOSP includes their WebView, but it is pretty outdated. If you experience these FCs, and clearing data or even REINSTALLING an app does not fix it, take a look at the version of webview selected in Settings > System > Developer options > WebView implementation, and choose the newest one, in this case, Chrome stable:
    Screenshot_Settings_20180131-113444.pngScreenshot_Settings_20180131-113453.png
  3. Depending on the version of GApps you have installed, you may remove/replace included apps (like Dialer, Calendar) without knowing it. For this reason it's suggested to use the smallest GApps package possible that gives you Play Services functionality.
  4. Screen recording tile:
    There are 3 different resolutions for the screen record tile, indicated by the 3 "dots" that will appear on the icon. 480P. 720P and 1080P, are 1, 2, and 3 dots, respectively. Tap to change them, then long press to record when ready. Tap the flashing red dot in the lower right of the screen to end recording, or long-press it to move the dot to the other side of the screen.


What's not working:
You tell me. I'm running this as a daily driver and it's been through testing. But if a noteworthy bug arises, I'll try to list it here for public knowledge. :)
