Added to OP. It's very similar to RR in terms of options but they have their own launcher (never used it though). This has stock Lineage apps instead of some of the crDroid versions for now. I'm still looking into how to integrate those packages.

I had no sound when receiving call, pressed a few buttons and it worked, could of pressed something with my cheek ?

Yeah, definitely...

A great one. Lots of optimizations, no black screen when receiving a call(without a fix or other dialer), and TSF launcher works(although an unnecessary info). Thanks Gavin.

No problem. Glad to hear it. I used it for a long time on my old Nexus 6 instead of RR. I think the logo is awful but the ROM is great (99% similar to Resurrection Remix to be honest) but I find it to be a bit quicker. I've taken about 6 calls and not once got a black screen (stock dialer).

For RR users, the black theme (not dark) is missing, as is the blur option but dynamic nav bar colour works (nav bar background colour matches app's main colour, e.g nav bar background colour is green in WhatsApp), and the battery icon is also removable (@Super_SU01).

Yes, very similar to RR,. I've also used it on my Lg g3 years ago, was my favourite.

I don't use stock themes, substratum is on. And using the Perfect color bar module for both statusbar(flat color, matching with the app's headers) and nav bar(Im getting used to it).

Off topic; do you consider compiling a custom kernel? Options on a kernel like enable/disable touch boost(to input custom values per cpu), cpu hotplug etc? Tried the hot plug on Pepsy kernel, seemed like helping on battery saving. Just curiosity..

Custom kernels are out of my reach. I'm just hoping for a new Psychedelic/Pepsy or an updated Floppy.

It's working very nicely for me.

It's working very nicely for me.

If I had to pick one of crDroid/RR/AICP to use I would definitely go for crDroid. Can't say why exactly, but it just feels smoother.

I'll probably put an update out tomorrow so it's at least using the latest security patches.

Yes you can

 

[Konstantine34]

How is it done?

Settings » crDroid settings » 'Navigation' tab » Navigation mode » Select 'SmartBar' then
» SmartBar settings » Start edit mode » Long press to any button and replace it. You can also change icon style, add gestures and extra buttons too.

Update - 11/3

- Various dark theme fixes
- Use crDroid file manager instead of Lineage version
- APKs can now be installed from file managers other than stock
- Update to March security patch
- Proximity fixes held back due to instability/unreliability
- Experimental workaround for Expanded Desktop bug - Toggling ED from the quick settings/smartbar will automatically exclude the launcher. The reason being that ED (nav or nav+status bars) causes a variety of issues (battery drain, phone won't deep sleep, slow unlock, slow/no wake with power button/FP/double-tap, lock screen sometimes skipped entirely)
