Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this Android 7 (Nougat)?
A: Yes, this is Android 7.1.2

Q: What code is Oct-N based on?
A: This version of Oct-N is based on LineageOS 14.1

Q: Why isn't there XYZ feature?
A: Shoot us a Suggestion if you want to see something added. While we are not going to promise to implement, we will always look into it

Q: But all the others have..
A: ROM developers, build something they want to use. The ROM developer that includes something they won't run implies less than 100% effort to ensure it does work. As a team, we have similar goals and objectives. If XYZ ROM has a feature you want, and we don't include (or don't want to include), feel free to use XYZ ROM, or build your own custom version of Oct-N.

Q: What about root?
A: Root is removed by default (user will be able to flash which ever root zip they want)

Bugs:
Bugs happen. Our testers are very good at breaking things, but no where near as good as the rest of the Android public. In order to investigate and fix issues, we need the help of the users who are going to report them. The Android OS has many nifty features to help us in this, but only if we can engage the user to assist us.

Logs, Logcat, and the Android Debugging Bridge (ADB)
Like any other OS, Android has multiple log files that are generated and record the goings-on of the system. As a user, you have two basic ways to view and pull these to send to us. Without the information in the logfiles, there simply is not a whole lot of information to go on.

Log file APKs
Team OctOs recommends SysLog from the Android Market. This application will allow you to selectively pick any (or all) of the system logs, compress them into a .ZIP file, and allow you to save, email, move to your Copy/DropBox/Cloud Storage account, etc.

ADB Logcat
The Android Debugging Bridge (ADB) is a powerful tool available from Google as part of the Android Software Development Kit (SDK). Used for many things, being able to selectively see, in real-time, what your device is doing cannot be downplayed. While there is more setup involved, if you are doing consistent ROM flashing, you really should invest the time to get setup properly to do it.

ADB Logcat tutorial here: How to create a logcat log

The foundation of the Android OS is the fact that is it open-source. They have all code we use internally in the creation of Oct-N available on our GitHub repositories.

Kernel souce can be found on github at
Kernel Source.

I just switched to this rom after being on Lineage for a long while. The setup was fast, worked perfect, and was very easy. So far everything works great. Chop for light works (although sometimes there is a delay) and so does the twist for camera. :) The only snag I have run into is that there was a quick random reboot when the flashlight was on. Other than that its been a really good start. I will update with any issues I have tomorrow. But so far so good. I love the nexus launcher!

Ok so I can say this the battery life is great. I had between 10% to 15% more battery at the end of yesterday then I usually have and that was a fairly normal day with a few extras. I have not had any more hiccups with the os. This is my new daily driver. It looks like it could be stock and everything seems to work. I don't require root because I like using Android Pay and I like Netflix. The best thing... It doesn't heat up in my pocket like LOS It all just works. Love it! Thank you for this rom.

This may happened to me because of having a very old battery, but I never got those "great battery life" results. They were awful. With heavy usage, i got 4hs of SoT and 6 hours of battery, that was pretty good. But on normal day to day usage, results were very, very bad. Most of the times I barely got to 2:30hs of sot and ~8 hours of battery life, and it drains fast. Guess I'll stick to good ol' and boring stock 6.0 :(

I really liked the ROM, it has very good performance, I do not drain the battery. I was thinking of installing a kernel, but I do not really see it as necessary. The only thing I did was root, and everything is fine. Today all day I traveled, all day the BT connected to the vehicle, the network in 4G. In general the mobile surrendered me 12hrs the day, with 2:30 of screen.I consider q if it is for normal use, nothing intense, it goes very well.
