Same as RR and all other Oreo ROMs, but @fisnevis ( you are Finlay, right?) said all the photos you take are always in landscape, but I think apps like Footej Camera can fix that

Yeah am Finlay finsnevis is google name.The camera takes in landscape but if you open gallery after photo is taken you can rotate it left or right and it saves it as portrait no problem so no need for other camera unless you don't want to edit it in gallery.The only other bug is when running games and only games the hard volume buttons are reversed up button is volume down and down button volume up but only with gaming is ok with music and video.Apart from that really superb rom.

I installed viper4 android through magisk that will let you adjust both headphone and speaker sound and bluetooth if you need it.Yes sound just a little low.I like it loud.

i'm stuck at bootloop, I followed the instructions to do a clean install (except nandroid backup). But when I install it without gapps it boots perfectly, then i try to reboot in recovery and install gapps, it boots but google play services don't stop crashing, I don't understand..

It should boot you need to install gapps at the same time as the rom.Just do 4 wipes dalvike data system and cache.Install the rom and then install gapps I used nano then reboot.Don't install apps after rom has booted.Install both at same time.Some of these roms require gapps to be flashed at same time as rom because it is part of the startup process when rom boots for first time.

It seems to be a problem with Aroma Gapps, pico works fine for me.

Yeah aroma gapps can be very fussy with some roms.Nano is the best with these type of roms because the launcher supports the google feeds by swiping right.It's easy to add other apps through the play store or apk mirror.Pico is fine if you don't use google feed and voice Aroma solves all this but no good if it crashes the apps or cannot launch them.:good:

@JakoDel
thanks for rom. it's great
After a few hours of testing on j510f (clean flash)
I encountered the following bugs:
1.back key on navbar key enable, sometimes it does not work and instead of doing the back action
show the action of recent apps.
2.Sometimes after opening the settings menu, settings gives force close.
3.Sometimes after the reboot, signal actived for operator antenna is too late, and even sometimes for activation requires to reboot phone.

I use MicroG instead of gapps. Battery life prolongs.

Isn't the system usage is abnormal? I installed this rom two days ago and the system usage is increasing regularly. screenshot attachted.

Has it been fixed in the new build?
