F.A.Q.
Q: When I install the rom, the aroma stucks at 90%. What to do?
A: On aroma installer, don't select to install magisk. Install it separately.

Q: I found a bug not listed. How can I report it to the developer?
A: Quote the OP in the thread and describe the bug. Remember to give the Logcat.

Q: My device is not supported yet. How can I ask to add support?
A: Contact OP on pm giving necessary informations.

Q: Can I install other kernel instead of the one which is included?
A: You can install anything you want on your device. Anyway don't report bugs or issues if using custom mods/kernel.

Q: I get a random reboot. How to fix?
A: Take the kmsg.txt log and send it to the OP.

Q: I don't see an update from a long time. What's going on?
A: If you don't see any update since a long time, it's just because of my studies. I use my free-time for this rom.

Ooooh Christmas is coming early this year :p
Can't test right now, but will try out in the next few days

Quick (maybe dumb) question: wouldn't it be far easier to take a debloated stock A8 Oreo ROM, and port it, instead of a pure stock one? I mean, wouldn't that get rid of some potential problems that might arise down the road? Again, probably dumb question and I don't know anything about porting, but was just wondering if that wouldn't be a bit easier.

Do not install for now TRUST ME

SM-G925F This rom is so bad as in like it is fast but when I turn off my phone in standby when i put it on the screen goes all weird like its black you cant see nothing, so I switched back to my Ultimate nougat rom which im so glad i backed up, i mean its great to see oreo roms for s6 but this one has major issues im not installing this rom till its stable and at its final release when camera and etc are working, so this rom isnt bad but it has issues i hope in a month or two a stable release of this rom is made

Why even post? It boots fine for me.
You've obviously done something wrong. People will be more willing to help you if you explain what you have already done to troubleshoot the issue yourself, and if you give as much information about your device as possible.

ROM looks great and runs fast (on G920F). Auto-rotate doesn't appear to be working but I have a feeling it might actually have something to do with the Camera bug.

You're probably having more issues than I was because the G925F is using an Alpha kernel. Very promising to see TouchWiz on Oreo on S6 up and running though. Nice work Manok98 and others :)

This post is very unnecessary with this stage of a rom...even if you installed this ALPHA rom and decided to post something here it would be very helpful to take a logs and help with further development...

As said in first post rom boots ONLY if you follow steps pinned in relative section.

It is an alpha version, we are working hard fixing bugs. Please be patient and provide us logs to fix issues. Thanks

Hi, I developed this kernel. What we really need, instead of being told every 5 minutes what I already know, is logs.
Please, if you install the Edge kernel, take logs!

Quick question, has anybody tried another camera app, just in case? To the Devs, amazing work!!!!! Is the camera likely to be a long fix or should I just wait for the next version before flashing? There is a newer CRG4 ROM as you probably already know. Perhaps it fixes some of the issues.

Thanks again
