mmm i can't understand if there is something wrong with this rom :'(
in the android configuration process:
sound scratch when i choose a different language
it's very laggy
G4 is very very very hot and it freeze sometimes before finish

if i was lucky and i was able to boot into system: lag everywhere T_T
i tried 4 times (re-downloading, rom and gapps pico) and every time same problems here

is there a 22/12 build to try? i tried with the 14/12 one

EDIT:
i'm trying with a different release date gapps version and something is going better, with pico gapps 17/12 is less laggy in android configuration process, but it give some "play store don't respond wait or close" i'll try with pico gapps 30/11 (the latest one i used with another rom and i hadn't any issue)

EDIT2:
no way, even with gapp pico 22/11 device still lag (less, but lag) and often it can not finish the android configuration steps (black screen or ui don't respond etc..)

i revert back to another rom, sorry i'll wait future update/fix to try this one

Mmm i can't even finish boot from initial setup :'(

AtomicOs2 2.5 and ResurrectionRemix 6 and 6.2.1 don't have these problems :confused:

I'll wait and give another chance on the next release
Very weird.. If you can pull logcat to see what cause your problem.. Others don't have a problem.. First me (H815).. :confused:

I tried again (the 6th attempt), re-downloading all rom and latest opengapps and work (after a reboot during the google account configuration) and i'm really happy about this

Only one thing, in magisk safetynet check, ctsprofile is false, is there a fix with this rom?

No

Another two things:

1) in battery managment at every reboot it reset SOT and last charged counter

2) Midnight Magisk module can't chance boot animation (root ok, it says that it changes it but at reboot nothing chance, i did many and many attempts)
I changed boot animation by manually placing bootanimation.zip in system/media path.

I have the same problem that i had on lineage, all videos freeze for like 2/3 seconds but the audio continues to go, after 3/4 seconds it returns in sync, any permanent fix?

Candy ROM works very well, after one week testing I've not had any problem. Is it possible to switch to enforced mode? Selinux app, setenforce via terminal and magisk module haven't done the job...
Thanks for your work!

and

In Magisk .. is your ctsprofile false?

I've effectively the CTS problem in magisk, while it seems there are no issues in battery stats.
In AICP, for example, sometimes battery seems to be exhausted, but rebooting the percentage increases...

Well nope for now.. SElinux works by blocking access to some components like for example camera.. Unless we specify otherwise in sepolicies.. I think it's built but I used trees just from permissive mode.. Next releases would resolve this problem but for now just permissive.. If you wanna enforced visit updated LOS 15.1 by @steadfasterX .. :)
