This is an AOSP-based build with extra contributions from many people which you can use without any type of Google applications. I found a link from some other project that can be used to restore the Google parts, which can be found below or elsewhere in the thread. I've still included the various hardware-specific code, which seems to be slowly being open-sourced anyway.

Extremly fast!

Very fast, great battery life too.
I'm not convinced profiles are working properly but need to look at it more closely.
Great stuff!

With the new 5.7.0 version of Google Maps out this may be of interest...
I can`t download anything bigger than 5M from the markets

That's why the script /system/etc/init.d/06mountdl is included in the ROM. You shouldn't need to do anything.
I've been running RC1 for a week with a 5MB /cache, no download problems (including Maps 5.7).

this is not the right way
"adb logcat" during install
"adb shell df -h" can show your problem

Downloading the new 7.1-RC1 right now. Have run 7.0 before, was quit ok. Now running Oxygen 2.1.6 but somehow that one has a huge battery drain for me, dont know why. So i'm gonna try the new Cyanogenmod later toyday to see if i'm going back to CM

I installed this new 7.1 ROM 10 hours ago. Generally speaking it's a very fast ROM. I like it much. But there are some little problems
1 - there are no notification for number of SMS received (SMS icon)
2 - camera shutter sound is very loud (setting there are for this not working)
3 - wi-fi signal is more weaker then other ROM in the same conditions
4 - GPS lock up need 5 or 6 minute
If you can do something with this, will be great

I didn't have any trouble installing Maps 5.7.0 this morning

So good news to know CM release 2.3.4 roms

Maybe "your" problems are because is still an experimental rom this version and not a stable one. Try 7.0.3, this one is the last stable release.
Cheers!

Is there any plan to use the GRJ90 (Android 2.3.5) base?

Are there already ROM's with Android 2.3.5? Or better said, is 2.3.5 out already ? Didn't heard about that so far. What is made better in 2.3.5 ?

For your long GPS fix, try FasterFix from market(need to be S-OFF). Now it takes me 15 seconds to locate

As far as I heard,the only new thing in 235 will be secure nfc with google wallet.so to me, it's not that important to get it asap.

Upgraded from 7.0.3 to 7.1-RC1 last night with no wipe of any partition, 1st thing i noticed is insane battery life charged to 100% last night when to bed at 12H00 woke up at 06H30 battery is at 99% after 6 and a half hours SICK
Thus far pretty awesome, only other thing i noticed is that in call volume is very low even with the call volume max'd, i am using the XX.XX.XX.23 radio will flash the XX.XX.XX.08 radio when i get home and see what difference it makes.
I havent really tested much as I only have it on for a few hours, should anything come up, i will report back.

Well, only the minor version is changed and the increment is 1! I don't expect major changes in the core of the OS. My point was that when one downloads the source repository, many of the CyanogenMod projects are downloaded from android.git.kernel.org. If Google pushes GRJ99 to its source repositories, then most of the CyanogenMod core projects will be based on GRJ99, unless the maintainer modifies the manifest.xml to instruct repo to download a specific branch.

Assuming that was with 3g and WiFi?
Be interested in what happens! I am new to CM7 (though i'd try it after using Oxygen since it's release!) and liking it so far but went for the stable build (7.0.3) as im away next week! But would upgrade in a second if it is stable and the battery is that good!

Besides JesusFreke, cyanogen is the godfather of Android.
CM exists since the G1/HTC Magic. After cyanogen got his Nexus, the project started to grow big. Atm it's (officially) available for 8 devices with many other unofficial ports for other devices.
No ext partition on the SD card is needed, it uses the Froyo A2SD implementation.
great man!!!!!
I just felt a little bit afraid...
I flashed all the things as you said ( Radio, wipe, CM, Gapps) then reboot...
I was stuck on a little Android robot just close to a white box and a yellow arrow going out the bof and going towards the robot..
Remove my battery 2 times than nothing...
Now, I wait a little bit more, then some stranges things happened ( going to HTC logo, reboot, the box and the android, reboot) and now, I have the boot animation...
All seem correct, but I was so afraid

When you see that the radio is being flashed, it's a VERY bad idea to pull the battery at that point!
Ok, I didn't know that!
So I feel lucky, everything is fine!
Thank for the information, I won't do that again!
just flashing with a2sd.
Fingers crossed it still works
update: It works with a2sd!!
I hope it dont cause problems as that a2sd method was for the nightlys.
Has the bootimage been changed since the last nightly?

Static IP with DHCP router
Hi
I still have problem with connecting wifi to a DHCP router. I tried Wifi Static to set statis ip which worked fine on the other rom, but i have never been able to use it in CM Rom
Besides, I have two APN on my 3 Network, but I can only choose 1 of them hence I cannot swap to the other one.
I'm looking for helps from everyone
Thank you.
I don't understand why you people want screenshots... it's stock Froyo in appearance, other than some blues swapped for cyans.
Can't wait to flash this. Kudos to the CyanogenMod team for all their hard work.
Is wifi sleep issue fixed?
Is vpn issue fixed?
Is that definitely the correct md5 of the Radio image?

thanks to all who made this possible supporting us
contributing with code, donations or even trusting us
thanks to SONY that made all this possible !
the build should be here soon: http://fxpblog.co/cyanogenmod/cyanogenmod-12/
we have enabled daily builds
if your device is not yet in the list will appear soon (1 day,1 week, 1 month) no ETA please
but you have to remember that is an early alpha build
Thread closed until there is a build available
Thread cleaned
 @jerpelea, please PM a mod or report this post to get the thread re-opened immediately.
Now that the daily builds are continued, have you or any other dev worked on CM12 for our device?
I am currently able to compile, but there seems to be a couple of issues that users are reporting,
Problems with com.qualcomm.location.apk
Updater script errors in recognizing proper device
System bootloops after 'starting apps'
Code:
E/installd( 269): DexInv: --- END '/system/priv-app/com.qualcomm.location/com.qualcomm.location.apk' --- status=0x0100, process failed
D/AndroidRuntime( 4634): Shutting down VM
E/AndroidRuntime( 4634): *** FATAL EXCEPTION IN SYSTEM PROCESS: main
It might be that I am not importing all the necessary repositories or the wrong ones (in my local manifests),
I would be grateful if device specific repos can be mentioned in the OP or second post
Thank you
Merry Christmas!

On that topic -- why has this been re-opened if there are still no builds?
 @jerpelea can we get at least a vague explanation of what's halting the builds from being made/uploaded?
Exactly. If they wanted to give us a full working built they can. I dont understand why theyre dragging thier boots, unless they want to release lollipop stock first.

The builds weren't being uploaded because the build server was down for a couple of weeks. Now that it's back up things should be getting back to normal.
They can't give us a full working build because the builds aren't fully working. Even with Sony sources and binaries the modem still isn't working, CM12 isn't fairing much better.

Well then the thread sbouldnt have been reopened. If theres nk available builds yet...
Yeah I'm not sure why they reopened it when they're not doing CM12 builds.
Did anyone flashed first release? What's working and not working.
Using the build from the 28th
Confirmed not working & issues:
*cell service
*camera
*Brightness slider is finicky
*device gets VERY hot
*massive battery drain
Things that work on this CM rom but not the latest AOSP build:
*NFC
*sd Card Support
*USB mounting to a PC
* Location
Notes:
This installs the stock CM recovery so make sure to get rom and gapps installed via TWRP the first go.
I had to edit the updater-script to flash. Removed the first line of device checks as it saw mine as a aries and would not flash
PS, for the love of all things holy, please setup a mirror. The current provider is just shy of torture.
finally we get one build,will flash.wait for my report
edit:lol,saw it,plan is over
edit2:still flashed it,it seems we have baseband at least(not display unknown),on its first boot,i noticed it's searching signal,then disappeared,checked baseband not unknown,tried to search for carrier but it never ends.
did a logcat,before logcat I turned on airplane mode,after its beginning i disabled airplane mode,tried to search for operator,then turned it to lte mode then tried to search again.

the other one is for z3.I think I didn't see more builds..
Just tried the latest renamed nightly for (z3c instead of aries)-
FXP-cm-12-20141228-UNOFFICIAL-z3c.zip
The WIFI radio seems to work - but the LTE and voice radio connects
right at boot and then disconnects and goes away.
On shutdown/restart the same thing happens - LTE/Voice connects at first
and then it goes away.
I saw funky radio issues when testing the pure AOSP aries builds-
so it may not be just the CM12 ROMS.
I also had to edit the z3c zip file to allow the aries product name
so I could install it from doomlord's stock CWM kernel recovery image-
but that was minor compared to the radio issues.

General:
These are UNOFFICIAL CM12.1 Lollipop Nightlies brought to you by Open Desire Project and TeamCodefire as a continuum to CM 11.0 and 12.0 builds. Builds are generated automatically on Mon/Wed/Fri/Sun. Process starts around 00:30 PST/PDT. If it fails, then there will be no build until the reason for failure is taken care of which can take time. Last 7 nightlies will be kept on the server. If you want a longer history of them, you are free to archive them yourself.

FAQ:
Q: I tried to flash the ROM and got this:
Code:
Installing update...
set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed
E:Error in /sdcard/..path od ROM.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.
Or I'm having other recovery issues.
A: Download and install the latest recovery here.
Q: I've used HTC Dev unlock and flashed the rom but it won't boot. What should I do?
A: You need to extract boot.img from the zip and flash it via fastboot. If you don't have fastboot executable anymore from flashing recovery, install Android SDK platform tools (Linux users should find it from distro's package management) and then reboot to bootloader, open command prompt and navigate to the location you extracted your boot.img and type:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
You need to repeat this everytime you flash new version of this rom to ensure everything will work fluently as long as you have just basic HTC Dev unlock.
Q: Where are my developer and performance options?
A: http://goo.gl/jpS8r
Q: Feature X doesn't work, let's make 1000 posts about it to annoy everyone.
A: Please, dont. Use search and then use search again and only then report your problem with necessary logs. [Logcat guide, thanks to MusikMonk for the link]
Q: Hey, my old phone is running the latest Android version, i want to thank someone!
A: Press thanks button here
Q: I hate you for not fixing this issue X!!!
A: I love you too.
Q: How I can build CM12.1 myself?
A: Setup a basic Android build environment.
Code:
mkdir cm12.1
cd cm12.1/
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b cm-12.1
mkdir -p .repo/local_manifests
wget https://github.com/OpenDesireProject/android/raw/cm-12.1/local_manifest.xml -O .repo/local_manifests/local_manifest.xml

Yeah, I fell asleep before the build finished and I had chance to say the same here that I already said on the ace thread:
First build is now on the mirrors. Expect everything to be broken, be thankful for anything that works. There's no schedule for these nightlies yet as I haven't really had time to think how I'll juggle 3 different versions so they don't start compiling at the same time. New builds will come whenever I feel like making one until things settle down a bit and build schedule is decided.

Thanks, I got the same thing as you mention plus android keyboard FC. However, it is the first built, just booted up is alright. The rest is leaving for Mustaavalkosta to take care of. If DHD is working, DS should be working as well. Thanks for Mustaavalkosta hard work.
Hi Mustaavalkosta, CM-12.1-20150403-UNOFFICIAL-saga.zip faced the same issues as previous built, Android keyboard FC, not enough space for the system. There should be somethings wrong because the internal storage still has 1.03 GB available as well as my SDCard still has 14 GB available space. However, front camera is working on this built. I am wondering if it is possible to copy files related to camera from this built to CM-12 and which files should it be replaced. I am trying to produce logcat without success. I am sorry about that. Thank you very much for your great effort.
Thanks, Mustaavalkosta, I got the answer by replacing Camera2.apk from this built to CM-12 by installing using root explorer and front camera is now working on my device, CM-12 Rom.

No, it is not. Front camera is working fine on CM-12.1. Thanks.
Can I perform update from CM12 to 12.1?
@qd42: Shouldn't be a problem since it's a minor Android update. But since this is in alpha state I'd suggest you wipe.
Same for me: "not enough space", keyboard FC on first boot (works good now in German). Front-camera works flawlessly. I'll be testing more.
Well, I'm tried to make update from CM12 and I don't reccommend to do this to others because of various system errors after boot like "android.process.acore errors".
How can i install this rom ?
I am using TWRP 2.8.5.2 as Recovery
I have swiped evertyhing i could on the phone
When i choose to install this ROM i get the Message: script succeeded result was /system
After flash boot.img, the Cyanogenmod-Logo still dont disappear after 10 Minutes ... (while booting)
€dit: Forget it. After 15 mins the Logo disappeared and the system has booted. But my SIM was not detected ...
€dit: SIM was detected ... but the phone tells me, i have less than 250mb free space ... wth ? I thought after a full wipe it should be at least 300mb free space ...

It's a bug. As a temporary workaround remove /system/media/bootanimation.zip and warning should go away.

Thanks MUstaavalkosta. So far, It is working fine. Flashed superSU v.2.48 beta makes it better. Ringtone is good, front camera is good. Just keyboad and google service have stop sign showed up some time. In fact they are still working. Thanks for your kind contribution.
I can't install any apps from the store get an error ’'-504''
Remove Boot animation before flashing as Mustaavalkosta suggested.
Okay,now that ive taken a break from studying,i can post a bug report on this. Accorrding to what ive seen,other than the known,solved ones,there are no other bugs. Much faster than 5.0.1 thats for sure. This is my new daily driver.
Sent from my SM-G900T using XDA Free mobile app
Hey guys, last time I flashed this the opposite side was not able to hear me upon my first call and the call quality was terrible when I returned the call after.
Of course I was in an area with good signal coverage.
Was this solved lately by any chance?
The space (LOL) problem is still unsolved. I believe that
Code:
55d502e msm7x30: use halfres bootanimation
was supposed to fix it.

[ROM] Unofficial Omnirom 6.0 for Galaxy S 4G

Code:
Code:
/*
* Your probably long expired warranty is now void.
*
* I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
* do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you
* and point my finger right back at you.
*/
Installation Instructions
Make sure you have a second partition on your SD card formatted to ext4 before flashing!!!! This can be created with either CWM recovery or with TWRP. gparted on Linux should also work. If you "SD card not supported" try repartitionning. If you get "Encryption unsuccesful" then you need to format the second partition as ext4 (or f2fs, your choice).
If on a BML rom (stock-based GB)...
1. Reboot to recovery
2. Make sure your version of CWM is at least 5.x
3. Install zip. It will reboot a couple of times, don't be worried.
4. If you want gapps, reboot to recovery, wipe data+cache and install gapps.
5. If you want root, flash SuperSU whenever
If on an MTD rom (CM7 and all ICS+)
1. Reboot to recovery
2. Wipe data, dalvik/art cache, system, and cache partitions
3. Install zip
4. If you want root or Gapps, install them now.
The first boot can take several minutes. Be patient. If it takes 10+ minutes, pull the battery and reboot to recovery.
Things to Take Note Of
I actually have a T959P, not a T959V... It was released by Telus in Canada. It is a very similar device (I can run ROMs for the T959V with limited problems - ie sometimes I get wakelocks and the gps never works), it has a different GPS chipset and also uses different cell bands (but I can still use your guys modems but I lose access to the 850Mhz band). I have created a build specifically for the T959V as best as I can guess.
Bluetooth only enables from the notification pulldown, not when you go directly to settings. It does work just fine afterwards though
If you're coming from either the last Lollipop build or the initial pre-release Marshmallow build, there is a bug in TWRP that will prevent flashing anything but the ROM. To get around this, please flash the Marshmallow zip, then reboot to recovery, and then follow the typical instructions.
If you decide to install gapps at a later date (ie after you've installed the ROM), you must do a factory reset first - otherwise you will get force-closes upon bootup
If you come across a bug, feel free to let me know by posting in this thread. I will not be working non-stop on this project, but will try to fix bugs that affect me as this is still my main phone (out of choice, not necessity).
This build is very close to the official omni source code. This means that the recovery is TWRP and there aren't any added "features"
In order to get it rooted, you need to install SuperSu.
Gapps eat up about an extra 30MB of RAM so they slow down the device - tread carefully.
Backup Backup Backup! I'm not responsible for you losing any data.

Semi-Working
Powered-off charging animation - works at first, but then stops working. Seems to be an Omni problem, but it still charges...
What doesn't
SElinux is currently in permissive mode. Will not be going to enforcing, this would require a data wipe as well
What's been removed
TV-Out - It was removed upstream plus I think binary blobs would need a ton of shimming in Lollipop+
Everything else is not tested!!!

Thanks Time!
Thanks Time!
This would not have been possible without the following people:
Thanks to humberos for bringing Lollipop to the first-gen Galaxy S series. This would not have been possible without his work.
Thanks to FB and Dao for their work on the CM-11 device tree. I used several of their fixes.
Thanks to noiphonehere for his device trees and kernel, most of my work was based off of his.
Thanks to the OMAP4 AOSP team for their work on porting CMA to a 3.0 kernel.
Thanks to bhundven and the other members of teamacid for their work on the aries kernel.
Thanks to all others that have helped get this phone to where it is today!
Thanks to vcmerritt. A name you're probably not familiar with, but he was the only one to create something for the T959P and without him I'd still be on stock...
Build your own!
Follow the instructions at http://docs.omnirom.org/Setting_Up_A_Compile_Environment using the android-6.0 branch
Before doing a repo sync, put the galaxy_s_series.xml file from the Downloads folder in .repo/local_manifests folder of the source tree (create the local_manifests folder if necessary).
After syncing the source, open a terminal and in the directory where you downloaded the source code type "./device/samsung/aries-common/patches/apply_patches.sh" to apply the patches necessary to have a working build. Then run "source ./build/envsetup.sh" and then "brunch galaxys4gmtd". For future builds, only the envsetup and the brunch parts are necessary. Please note that you will have to re-run the apply_patches.sh script after each time that you run repo sync. (Note: the patch script no longer runs automatically)
You should be able to use my trees for other first-gen galaxy S devices. You will need to apply a patch similar to https://github.com/xc-racer99/andro...mmit/fe6bc6b82881a12fc4a5647812f3cf0f52f79c6a to your device tree (if coming from Omni 5.1). I haven't done anything to P1 trees and may have broken the kernel for it...

Gapps
Gapps cause the first boot to be very, very laggy. Things do improve after that. The best way to get through the Setup Wizard (IMO) is to skip everything possible (ie connecting to Wifi, settings up a Google Account, etc) and then reboot. You can manually add a Google Account later in Settings. While any (small) Marshmallow gapps should work, I have had success with OpenGapps pico package from www.opengapps.org (untested on recent builds).
SuperSu
SuperSu can be found at http://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/supersu. If on May 2016+ builds, systemless 2.71 works (other systemless versions may work, untested). If you're on an older build, you need to either force system mode (create a file in /system or /data called .supersu with the contents "SYSTEMLESS=false") or use an older version (ie version 2.52 or earlier). August 2016 build updates the systemless to 2.76.
Woooow thanks
As you suggested, Gapps caused lots of problems...made the ROM very slow and laggy, lots of FC's, lots of random reboots, etc. I re-flashed without Gapps. Was able to restore apps with TB and root with SuperSu. The basics...calling, browsing, messaging, camera...are working fine. Haven't taken it for a ride yet, but GPS test picked up 5 satellites and I haven't even taken it outside yet. If I desperately need another app, I guess I can find the .apk somewhere. Since I did a TWRP backup, maybe next week I'll try the pico gapps again and see what happens. At any rate, wonderful work.
Update: Took it out for a spin this afternoon....GPS works fine.
Been running the 1/7 for a few days. loving it so far

I've also uploaded a T959P build as I had a request for one. Let me know if you guys find any more bugs.
New build flashed fine although I had to re-flash the SuperSU zip...no problem since I already had it on my SD card. I'll let it rest up for a day or two and then I'll try to flash the pico-gapps and see if it
will run smoothly....good job.

Sounds good. Do note that when/if you flash gapps, you will need to do a complete data wipe first, otherwise you will get force-closes like crazy.
I've always just reflashed SuperSU manually and never relied on the script to restore it so I can't help you there.
Tried to install over MTD SlimSaber with TWRP 2.7.0.0, kept getting Status: 7 error with updater.sh script.
Any way to fix this?
Thanks in advance.

Hmm, going back to to stock with a OneClick/Heimdall/Odin will work for sure.
Alternatively, check if there is an omni.cfg file on your SD card. If there is, delete it and try again. Also, if you can get me the exact wording of the error output that would be great, along with the omni_mtd.log file from the SDcard.

I will Heimdall One-Click back to KJ6 and reflash the ROM after checking for the omni.cfg, and will quote the output and the log if I get another error.
I'll be back by 5:00pm PST. I have school to take care of.

I typically used the Blastoff kernel, but I have my own one-click as I have a Canadian variant.
Also, the omni_mtd.log will tell which part of the updater.sh failed. Another thing to check is if you have a second partition on your SD card. This ROM requires one as /data is put there.

I'll try out Blastoff if I can find it. But it probably failed because I did not partition my sdcard. I'll see if that helps later.
Thanks a lot.

Hey, xc-racer99, after about four assorted blind attempts at installing your work, I flashed back to stock/AntonX kernel with Heimdall and full wiped, then used CWM to create a 4GB partition on my sdcard. The ROM installed through CWM, then TWRP without an error and booted up after fifteen minutes or so of OMNI animation, and is running on my SGS4G without any issues. The only noticeable lag was for the first five minutes after the initial boot. Now my device is gliding smoothly after a few tweaks in the performance settings and turning off background processes. Thank you so very much.
Next time, I'll read the entire post before blundering through the install process with the assumption that I know what I'm doing [as usual].
Sorry for the trouble, if indeed I was any.

Finally got pico gapps to run...the initial setup took quite a while but now that it's settled in, no problems. It's also interesting to note that Link2SD is running fine while it seems to be a major problem for other Lollipop & Marshmallow ROM's on other devices.

ROM OS Version: 8.x Oreo
ROM Kernel: Linux 3.4.x
Version Information
Status: Alpha

F.A.Q
Q. Why pre-alpha and all?
The reason why this build is pre-alpha, and in other words, simply unusable, is because deep sleep doesn't work, that means the phone cannot be kept idle (it can be if connected to power source). This is a big issue as it renders other (basic) functionalities useless. I wanted to fix this and then release, but have been out of luck. So I decided to release this anyway, just to let people know that work is being done on getting Lineage 15.x work on Xperia L. Even if this fails big time and the project needs to be abandoned, well atleast the people would get to use whatever worked. Ofcourse I am not giving up yet, unless I really really get frustrated. As of this build, flash it if interested, see how oreo looks like, and then flash back the old rom.
Q. What GApps to flash?
I did not use GApps during my testing, but if you want to use, use opengapps (8.0 ARM). Recommended - pico or micro packages. You do need to modify the installer scripts inside opengapps zip, otherwise installation would fail due to version mismatch.

thank you bro. been waiting for this for a long time, many cheers to you
Deep sleep issue was present in every LOS 15 rom, especially lenovo roms, Can it be fixed by replacing libsuspend.so from nougat rom, what's actually the issue

In oreo, earlysuspend got removed from libsuspend, and our kernel uses used earlysuspend. So during initial boot (that is our kernel using earlysuspend, and no earlysuspend in libsuspend), device won't comeback on after I turn off the display, even if it was connected to power source.
An abandoned patch does exist though, which brings back earlysuspend support back to libsuspend. With that patch applied, device did comeback on after display was turned off, and it would function normally as long as power supply was connected to it (just like how it does now), deep sleep still did not work then.
Since the patch was abandoned, and depending on it would not be appropriate, I decided to bring autosleep in kernel, which I eventually did, deep sleep still doesn't work
Great!
Thanks for your hard working and not giving up :good:
It's worth testing, at least we can see how it looks like
wow this is a good news, but i think with more 800MB ram taoshan should use android go
Thank you for your hard works:angel: Corphish :angel:
Hope the bug dies soon :laugh:
Alpha 1
New build is up.
Changelog
Fixed deep sleep.
Fixed proximity sensor, now all the sensors should be working as usual.
Updated lineage-15.1 sources - Switched from staging/lineage-15.1 branch to lineage-15.1 branch. Some immediate changes you will notice are the new icons and the addition of Lineage setup wizard.
Now that this has graduated from pre-alpha, and the device can stay awake in idle, this makes the alpha build way more usable than the pre-alpha build. If you end up using this, and face bugs that are not mentioned in the "not working" list, please let me know by posting about it in this thread. Logs would be welcome, but a proper way of reproducing it would be good too.
P.S - Firefox still doesn't work ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Links updated in OP.
1. device not booting properly using restart in power options, doesn't respond to any action until battery removed
2 flashlight not working, and the flashlight toggle interrupts the music playback.
3 downloads fail using jelly browser

1. It works fine here, does take a bit of time though. :/
2. Because camera does not work. It will work when camera is fixed.
3. That is because, vold assigns our internal storage name as "7384-14B3" (atleast it looks like that in mine), so storage location for internal storage is "/storage/7384-14B3". Turns out that DownloadManager cannot handle storage locations with such name . Will try to workaround it in the next build.
Now that's awesome and quick. Great work @corpish
I have tried it. It's amazing and fast
But there are some problems
1. Phone restarts when phone get stuck, or when starting camera
2. Music playback stopped when flash light turned on
3. Downloading get unsuccessful in the stock browser
I think other users have already mentioned some of the following problems.( I think the real problem is with the download manager )
4. And there was no gapps for Oreo 8.1.
So I installed a unofficial gapps which was created for 8.1 and the setup keeps closing
I have only noticed these problems yet.
But it's a amazing ROM.
Thanks Corphish

I have the same problems
Split screen is not working.it says not supported in any app even sys app.
And casting is not working as well.just after connecting it closes and search for device again
These are not a major problems
But the camera and flash are little impotent

If camera and flash are important then,
Flash Back !
I wont change my OS just to get camera and flash
Working again.
Even while it's in alpha stage I really like this Rom:laugh:
The app's stay in the same position even after long time
And now I'm using mostly Google go edition app's to keep the device fast as possible
