Do remember seeing the current bugs and instability i wont suggest anyone to try this GSI for now, If you wish to use it, flash it at your own risk and I or anyone else linked to this project will not be held responsible if anything is going wrong with your device. So flash it entirely at your own risk and you cant blame anyone of us later on
