F.A.Q

We do not recommend nor support using 3rd party mods(helix/akt/viper/substratum/greenify/etc), beta magisk versions, magisk modules, and especially not other kernels.

Before issues should be reported:

1. Rom needs to be clean flashed
2. No Xposed, AKT Profiles, Helix Engine, magisk modules, or other mods, kernels, etc.
3. Do not restore any apps with TiBu or Swift or some other app restoring application
4. No Substratum themes installed

If you can still reproduce the issue you're having:
1. Logcat/logs must be provided with your report in order to receive any support.
2. I also need a full description of what happened, what you were doing when it happened, and a way to guarantee-ably reproduce the problem. If I or my testers cannot reproduce it, not only will it likely not get fixed, it likely isn't even an issue with the rom/kernel.
3. Screen record or picture of the issue is also helpful.

If you're not familiar with how to get logs, I prefer that you would use Syslog app from the Play Store as it will grab all necessary logs for you and scrub any personal data from them when doing so.

If you can't give logs for errors or possible bugs, I literally cannot help you solve it. You might as well not even report it.

If you have a question:
1. Please read at least the last two pages of the thread
2. Use the 'Search this thread' function on the top-right of this site

If you still cannot find the answer you need, go ahead and ask away.


Telegram Support Group is closed. Support will only be given here


Common issues:

Q: What does clean flash mean?
A: Wipe system/data/cache/dalvik in recovery and then flash rom, gapps, and magisk if you want it.
A2: If you are doing so in order to reproduce an issue you're having, no other things must be flashed, changed, altered.

Q: What is dirty flash and when is it allowable?
A: We do support dirty flashing SD releases directly on top of previous SD releases ONLY. You just flash new release right on top of previous SD version without wiping anything. We do recommend you wipe cache/dalvik cache however.
A2: If you have slow downs or any other issues tho, you must clean flash the rom and follow the steps above before reporting anything.

Q: You get 'Android is starting' on first boot after using SD-Debloater.
A: You removed launcher3quickstep without having another launcher installed or restored with google. Install another launcher or wait to use debloater until after you've setup the phone and installed a separate launcher.

Q: You flashed magisk zip and booted phone and there is no magisk manager apk in apps and root isnt working.
A: Install magisk manager apk by itself once you're booted, it sometimes doesn't get installed with zip.

Q: My battery life is horrible
A: Stop using Greenify, amplify, and/or other "battery optimization" apps or mods. Stop blocking wakelocks and alarms, just use the rom and kernel as they come without any tweaking.
Side note: Facebook/FB Messender/Instagram/musicly will destroy your battery life.

Q: Can't change QS layout (Rows/Columns)
A: Pull down QS Shade, click 'Pencil' looking icon, click 3-dot menu, enjoy.

Q: What do location icons mean
A: Dot = Sensors only, + = Battery Saving, H = High Accuracy

Q: No Recents options/clear-all button in Settings
A: Quickstep Launcher(Pie recents) uses its own setup so 'Recents' options are hidden while its installed/enabled. If you remove/Disable the Launcher3Quickstep and hence go back to normal AOSP recent style, then Dragon's Den will show a 'Recents' tab with Clear-all button toggle, placement selection, and a membar toggle.

Q: PUBG
A: This game is horribly "optimized". I do not support this game at all and I do not build anything with this game in mind.

Q: Screen flickers/android auto
A: For now best bet is disable HW Overlays in developer options.

Extra stuff

HDK-Mod-v1.0.0

This is my own modified build of Grarak's Kernel Adiutor app.
I have added a few extras that were missing for sound control, pdesire audio, DCI_P3 mode, sultan's battery cycle/charge commits, Boeffla Wakelock blocker, and KLapse-Livedisplay support.
Also changed the theme, and updated some stuff.
Work in progress but needed something to fully control my kernel.
Full credits and much love to Grarak for putting in all the hard work on this app, not trying to take away from his work, I am just posting mine here in case you deleted it from my rom.
My source for it is here.


HolyDragon Recovery Project 3.2.3-0 8/09

*Fixed not saving settings
*August patches
*New decryption blobs
This is my own modified build of TWRP, currently version 3.2.3-0.
I build it with my rom source so same optimization as my rom, Built and optimized specifically for the OP3/msm8996 SOC.
I built a kernel specifically for this Recovery to maximize the backup/restore speeds and lower the battery usage at the same time.
What once took ~140 seconds to backup system/boot now takes ~70. No loss in functionality, encryption and all that still works fine here.
I've changed the default theme and also ported some features from RedWolf Recovery that I found useful like substratum overlay wipe.
Source for this here: device, twrp, kernel

Please no more talk about Gcam and Spectrum they're removed from the rom and considered OT if you need them go to their threads.

Gcam: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/how-to/modded-google-camera-hdr-60fps-video-t3658552

This is same idea only way better, aosp base instead of stock rom

 

[nico933]

Great guy,thanks!

 

[Beedeezy10]

Flashing now!

 

[Mr. Y]

Best battery I have had on Pie custom Rom. That thing is finger-licking, butter smooth. And the team is super chill. Check them out on telegram. Congrats

Exactly this, plus tremendous stability. I've been using skydragon for a couple of weeks now (and omnidragon before that) without a single FC or random reboot. Device specific optimisation works people.

 

[Bearthquake]

Excited!

Going to flash when I get home.

 

[Madhawk1995]

microG support?

 

[Imotep95]

Dragon unleashed!

 

[middendorp]

How is the battery life compared to kernels like madys?

 

[HolyAngel]

microG support?

Yes should work no problem

How is the battery life compared to kernels like madys?

Best around

 

[choiwooyoung]

I am excited that it would be awesome such as OmniDragon. I was also impressee by that fantastic rom having battery life, fast, and also Stable. And now, *Holy* HolyAngel made 9 Pie version. Going to Download
Again Thanks for buildinh one of the best Roms xD

How do you do a restore after a full wipe without using Titanium?

 

[henningsieh]

How do you do a restore after a full wipe without using Titanium?

I try to get in love with this magisk module:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/magisk-module-app-data-keeper-adk-t3822278/

Be careful, read the thread, understand its working method/behavior, make a full sd-backup, read the f**kin' manual again! Just my two cent... good luck
