I installed the rom and it's running fast and perfect, only addonsu installation is a problem. It seems to be installed (as you can see in TWRP) but isn't recognized by rootchecker.
My fault : I forgot to enable root access in developer options - every system is different;
Thanks for your great work :+1:

- GPS: Ok

Looking for battery life now.
Thanks for this build.

Just curious - what is it about the ROM that will make it never work with GCam?​

 

[HelloWorldljx]

Tks for your work for kugo.

 

[betacrypt]

Thank you @Chippa_a! Been hoping we'd see something new for the XC for months now. I still have a couple and will definitely be testing this rom on one of them.

Great performance and battery so far. Curious as to why GCam/Raw camera support does not work on this rom but does on Omni and AOSP? Is it possible for future builds?

Because of the 3.10 kernel.

 

[Pergin]

Thank you for the great job! I'm using this rom, very fast and stable, also battery seems to be good. The only problem I found is not working fingerprint unlock for the apps (for example PayPal), while the phone fingerprint unlock works well.

 

[Spaceoid]

This is INSANE! I just finished my Bachelor thesis and now there's FINALLY an up-to-date-version of LOS for the X Compact, been waiting for many months for this! Gonna flash it immediately!

 

[maluus]

First i want to thank for your work. Everything seem to work properly and smooth. Rarely some slight stutter here and there but nothing to disrupt the comfort. But there is one thing I need to point and that is some battery drain. I've tested two times from 100% to 40% percent. (Rebooted at 100%) And battery stats show that OS consumes 10-12% of battery. All the other roms I ve used so far drains 2-3% for the OS part. Normally usual suspect for battery drain is Google services but this time it is the OS. I believe it's possible to fix it and then this will be a great rom. Maybe a last breath for the dying XC

 

[Spaceoid]

Here also, after around 5 hours of testing, no issues so far! Only thing I noticed - sometimes Wifi disconnects and reconnects. On stock, my phone did not do that. Have to admit, it might be that our router had some problems today. He never did that before, though, and my girlfriend didnt notice anything strange, so I assume (!) its the phone. Apart from that, great performance for the very first build!

The same issue happens on Omni and AOSP roms too, I believe it has to do with the Loire software binaries from Sony, but I could be wrong.

It's also insane how much better this rom performs than any of the others. It's super smooth and fast on my device.

 

[Spaceoid]

So, after the first night I checked my phone and in BetterBatteryStats I saw that it did not sleep at all... 0.2% deep sleep, the rest is "Awake (Screen Off)". Kernel Wakelocks are full with epoll_xxx wakelocks, I am not sure where they come from... I lost around 18% during the night.

Edit: I did some Google research, and it seems the wakelocks are kernel issue. If it helps, I can upload a screenshot of my BBS.

 

[TamarindoJuice]

The best custom ROM i tried so far, what a great job, keep it up.
The only bug i found, is that Deep Sleep is not working, it keeps awake the whole time.

 

[Spaceoid]

The same here. I attached screenshots of my BBS of last night. I hope they are useful. Phone lay untouched for 7.5 h. I only installed Gapps and Magisk, and a few apps that never caused problems on stock. No deep sleep at all, and quite some activity in the kernel wakelocks.

Apart from the deep sleep problem, this ROM is insanely good. Everything works, no crashes or restarts, I am super happy. If the deep sleep is fixable, this phone is as good as new.

Speakerphone issue in calls

I tried LineageOS 15.1, Omnirom and AOSP: this one is absolutly the best custom ROM for kugo!
Thank you for the great job. Fast and stable, it runs seamless and everything works perfectly for an everyday use.

I get only one issue with the speakerphone in calls: once it's activeted the call ends suddenly. Many reboots and changing call app (e.g. Google Phone) didn't solve the problem. Checked app permissions and turned off AudioFX but the issue is still present; speakerphone in WhatsApp calls works correctly.
Did anyone notice this behavior?

Tried now to call to the service number of the operator and another person to check the speakerphone, everything works fine, there is not any disruption of the call.

 

[zokkii]

This rom is very good almost like stock.I didn't have any problem with deep sleep 0.3%per hour.
My only problem is the camera, that's why i went back to stock

 

[eiskusma]

I have a question since I don't have a ton of experience with the various roms. Under the features and issues it lists the radio as NA. Does this mean it does not function on this rom? Is there a way to activate it if it isn't?
