@ripee I make roms for myself and share them with others. What's wrong with that? And yes, I'm helpful and generous when you write me pm. Just curious, nobody asked for help in public. And yes, everything is depends on my spare time.
Nougat builds are really abandoned. You don't believe me or what? Or I should to write anything else there when people ask for update builds?

I see you worry about my git. Calm down, please. Why do you think I upload sources for you? I uploaded sources for you and you published your builds just right after that without understanding what exactly changed and instead of help to fix remain bugs. I told you few months ago to choose one author and try to fix something. You didn't hear me. I don't need any credits. But I don't like liars, if we talk about one person here. And I don't want more "we don't care" teams here. I don't need any daily public builds. It will be disorganized development. At least no one else haven't tried to fix anything in my (nougat) sources...
So, in short, I will do what I want. I will upload builds when I want. I will add/fix/change in builds what I want and in my own priority. I spend my own time for that. Don't like? Don't use. Make something yourself. Stop depend from me and let me do my work. Thanks in advance.
If you don't want credit, why do you bother to share your roms with the public? If you find it surprizing that no one asks for help publicly, then you need to take a step back and remind yourself of the obvious: 99% of users don't know and don't care where builds come from, they think they come from outer space or the centre of the earth. I build from whosever repos work at that particular time. As I've told you already, my nougat builds were 100% official repos because only those were able to compile. If you don't want users to wait patiently for your builds, how the hell do you expect to get feedback? This is how the cycle works: you build, we give feedback, you update your repos, and build again.

You may not need daily builds, but at this early stage of Oreo development, having irregular builds is more disorganized than regular builds because with regular builds users can keep track of how your gts2 commits go together with community commits in the non-gts2 repos. If you ask me not to share my builds publicly, I won't.

In short, your repos aren't 100% reliable since you take forever to update them. I get that you're busy, but why not push your updated commits right when you start a new build? Even when I give you good feedback you still take forever to make a change: how long ago have I told you about taking this line out of the gts210wifi vendor repo, which you acknowledged as good feedback because it's necessary for compilation to progress properly, yet we're still waiting for you to update your repo!

If you choose to release your repos publicly, then you have to expect the whole world will depend on them. If you don't want to keep them updated, you may as well not share them at all, since outdated repos are as useful as outdated antivirus definitions.

I get that you want me to make my own threads so that users don't bother you with feedback from my builds, but if I make it clear to everyone that I use your repos, then the feedback is directly useful to you going forward. If you don't want too much feedback too often, ask users to post it in the thread not pm. At this early stage, we all just want the basic functions to work. The deep down stuff can wait.

It's hard enough to learn how to fix these bugs myself, but going between qualcomm devices and exynos makes it that much harder. If I knew how to improve upon your repos, I would have take the time to do so myself already, rest assured. I feel proud of myself as it is to have deduced the rotation bug being fixed by a simple change from 270 to 90.

What does it matter to you why he bothers? You may not agree with the approach @bonuzzz is taking but he has been very open and clear: He makes the ROMs for himself and publishes them in case they are useful for others. Don't expect a particular upgrade schedule or anything else, really.

As a user of a T810, this one is my first real chance at getting Oreo on my device. And if he decides tomorrow not to fix anything further, I'll have to live with it - but I'd hate the reason to be him getting frustrated of people expecting things he never set out to or claimed to provide in the first place.

You don't have to live with it because you don't have to be dependent on anyone. I build daily because I like to have a frequent update schedule. Keep in mind that most improvements are from community commits, not bonuzzz's gts2 repos. My builds are available publicly anyway.

Both of you guys chill.................
Now it's bonuzzz's wish whether:
He wants credit
He wants donation
He wants nothing
He wants to maintain los 15 for Exynos Tab
And many more things i don't know.
So, he doesn't want anyone of those things we can't force him. So leave him @bonuzzz alone i am sure he would take the right decision for everything. Relax enjoy los 15.1?

I flashed the 4/27 build successfully but after booting. The setup wizard keeps crashing and the message is also in the wrong screen orientation.
I also haven't figured out how to power off the device yet. I get the according prompt but it does nothing. T810.

Edit: OK, I was able to switch the device off now. With the screen orientation being wrong, it's just a bit tricky to figure out where the promt is actually supposed to be and tap there :)

I should have mentioned that I came from LOS 14.1. I did wipe Data and Cache before flashing.
Seems I know why setup wizard crashes. I think you flashed without gapps and i didn't test this scenario. I can fix it.
But I really don't understand screen orientation issue...

checked again. setup wizard doesn't crashed...

I did flash without Gapps, my bad - if that is the reason, I'll know better next time. Not an urgent fix I think, as you even mention it in your instructions to include Gapps.

Going back to 14.1 is painless, so if I can help test anything with regards to the screen orientation, let me know - I'll be happy to flash and try again.

As I wrote before, all that's needed to fix the screen orientation is to set all instances of hwrotation to 90, not 270. I compiled a build just to prove that to myself.

@igna.98 @khaberz Thanks, guys, for testing! Rebuilding now rom and will upload proper builds soon
@ripee it was not property issue, but more common issue. I reorganized system.prop stuff and wrong included this stuff. It mainly causes on screen orientation and ril part. So, thanks for advice, but it was not so simple unfortunately.

Just tried installing 27/4 on T815 and it seems to just hang on bootanimation and not progress. Follwed instructions clean flash with open gapps pico straight after. Anybody else?

Thanks for letting me know, I learned something new. :) I hope you will have time sometime soon to push your updates to github, I'd love to see how you fixed the bugs you've managed to fix so far.
