Changelog

20.03.2019:

• XenonHD upstream
• updated translations and fixed some XenonHub translations
• updated kernel with rama's changes
• kernel: added KCAL control, disabled some battery-eating wakelocks; added support for lower CPU frequency
• improved battery life
• NoCutoutOverlay improvements; added overlay for masking the notch
• updated f2fs mount flags
• fixed manual network selection
• updated statusbar height
• enabled Wi-Fi MAC address randomization

VERY IMPORTANT! Pie Firmware is now required to flash the ROM! (see post #4)
Also, there were lots of changes under the hood as well as updated ROM with latest Pie blobs so it is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED to clean flash the build if coming from earlier build!

Required Firmware

Since second Xenon build (20.03.2019) we use newer trustzone version & new Pie blobs that's why Pie Firmware is now required to flash the ROM.

Great rom, thanks.

About updates interval...

Will try to keep the ROM updated weekly every Saturday.
After releasing few builds and having ensured the ROM is stable for daily use, will also make my effort to make the ROM Official.
Cheers,

thanks for your hard work.
one question, it is the phone call recording fixture working in this ROM regardless of the SIM card mobile country code.
for what I have been reading lineage OS call recording is controlled by the Sim card country code, witch can be bypass modifying the
android_packages_apps_Dialer/java/com/android/dialer/callrecord/res/

the source code is here

https://github.com/LineageOS/androi...e-16.0/java/com/android/dialer/callrecord/res

and can be modified.
would be great if you can compile the changes.

Sorry man but TeamHorizon dropped callrecording feature since Pie (Oreo had this feature).
You can see our Dialer sources here: https://github.com/TeamHorizon/android_packages_apps_Dialer/tree/p/java/com/android/dialer
Since tulip isn't official yet and I'm not TeamHorizon member I can't do anything for now. Maybe in the future coz I'm planning to make this ROM official after fixing SELinux stuff.

 

[hidroela]

so this ROM don't use lineage dialer :crying:

 

[WakBagasi]

No, it uses Lineage Dialer but with some small modifications - removed call recording, enabled wallpaper as a background and a few more.

 

[geekon]

@hidroela From what I have found out we now use complete paths to LineageOS repo that's why the Dialer app is completely synced with all LOS commits. Call recording also should be there if your country allows it. Any other hacks not present and rather won't be.

ok thanks for letting me know about this. not a big deal I am pretty happy with miui the only thing that I am missing is the smart Lock fixture. good luck with your development brother.
