Keep in mind this is early build and many los features are not merged yet do not report those as bugs as they are not device specific and will be resolved
Also here are some screenshots

Also big thanks to everyone who supported this and other projects since lineageos 15.1 since i do this in my free time and donations help offset server cost and get me coffee

Well it works pretty good no reboots that I had happen. I was able to root it with magisk v21 manager v8. All the modules I use worked and to my shock edxposed Android R 5.06 Yafha worked perfectly. We have never had xposed work when android updates to the latest that is mind blowing. However you know I got 1 complaint. SDcard would not read I wasnt about to reformat a 400gb sdcard with everything on it for a rom I wasnt going to stay on. All in all excellent I had to flash rom, than flash gapps and reboot than flash maigsk v21 after opening up developer options other wise if you just line 1,2,3 zips up it wont work. I want to say I used niks gapps but I downloaded both bit and niks and cant remember.

Thanks for the ROM so early. I don't know if what I'm about to mention is a bug or just an error for me, but has anyone else had an issue with the brightness slider? That's my only problem so far :c

Are the microphone issues (not working for audio messages, echo when calling) fixed in this one? Any chance they will be?

KeepassDX biometric issue still exists (issue present in 17.1 as well). In 18, the issue is worse: when I go to enable biometric, a pop-up appears stating "Could not start this feature".

Hoping you can update the security patch and vendor patch to LOS16 version, as that was last version that had no issues

The other guy is right you flash rom, flash gapps , and finally flash v21. I use SHRPS recovery 2.3.2 ltehero 2 and hero 1 actaully I have both phones. Maybe thats different. It wont work if you hit plus zip , plus zip , plus zip. You have to do 1 flash let it finish than flash the other I dont know why. For the first release Its super impressive just the sdcard thing otherwise it would be a daily driver except I didnt check sim card.

ROM wants to format mSD card, even tho the same mSD card works fine in 16 and 17.1

that normal?

edit: even after formatting, 18 won't recognise the mSD card - instead, a notification shows, saying there is a error with mSD card and to fix it, it needs to format... which I did.... and then it showed the error again, saying it needs to format again..... so a useless cycle :(
