[ROM][SPECIAL][8.1][09/02] Dirty Unicorns for Redmi 4x (santoni)

[fir3walk]

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!!

Flashing Instructions:

- Verify that you're using the latest version of TWRP

- Perform a FULL WIPE as described below if coming from another ROM or a different version of Android
(A full wipe is when you wipe system/data/cache)

- Flash the latest version of this ROM

- Flash recommended GAPPS linked below

- Reboot and ENJOY!!


**If you fail to follow these instructions, please don't bother reporting any bugs**

**If you use Xposed, please don't bother reporting any bugs**

**If you use another kernel, please don't bother reporting any bugs**

Credit and Thanks:

We would like to give thanks to everyone that contributes to the Android community, big or small because every bit counts. Although we can't list each and every contributor within the Android community, we would like to highlight some of the teams and individuals that have made it possible NOT only with just this version of DU but throughout the years because we don't ever want to forget where we came from nor those that have helped us!

That said, on behalf of the DU team we say THANKS to....

[love4chat]

nice to see more development,thanks dev

 

[gogyly]

Really nice room for initial release. Some annoying bugs that I found are
- messaging app disappeared after some time
- can't make outgoing calls (temporally solved by rebooting)
- can't change system themes (substratum also won't work).
On the other hand room is absolutely gorgeous, battery backup just fine, super fast and smooth.
Can't wait next update which will hopefully fix bugs.
Thank you
Edit
All this fixed with v35 firmware.

 

[Renaldi Ananda]

smooth, kinda drainy i dunno? probably my battery fcked up or i havent calibrate it yet. anyway its a cool rom, flashed 2 hours ago, havent faced any bug yet

 

[prin2ce]

Fantastic performance with Xprise kernel
Really Nice ROM

 

[zhrlmsdnsho]

Great ROM and DU is my fav ROM :svetius:
Please add feature quick setting to edit status bar toggle line if it possible :fingers-crossed:

 

[gogyly]

I need to say (after using this room for 2 days) that this is probably best oreo room for santoni (and I tried them all). Everything just works, no glitches, no need for custom kernel.
Everyone need to try this and believe me you'll wish to stay here forever. I'm really thankful for this room. Great work once more.

Has it received an update yet?

I'm using 30 march update so I'd go with yes. As far as I know this is the initial build, I don't know anything about frequency of updates. DU have new features and bug fixes at weakly basis so I hope developer will follow their policy for nightlies.

Go to display settings and uncheck ambient display. That should do it

I think that's a common bug on Oreo for now.
