Samsung Pixel Experience PBy CodeFox & OpenSauce9810
What is this?
This is a Semi Generic System Image. That means it's a generic system image that's been optimised as much as possible for our Samsung Devices. This is what differentiates this rom from the one you can find in the Project Treble Forum. I also plan to provide regular updates and improvements very frequently. I'm aiming for weekly if not more.
Why not Rainbow_Dash?
We're a part of the same team and he's taking a break from developing for the moment, so I'm going to do my best to support you with regular updates and support where possible. So his previous version should be considered redundant.
How the heck do I flash this?
It's slightly different than flashing a zip, so here's what you need to do.
Download the image file
Flash the ARH6 Vendor Image to your Vendor Partion from TWRP (Press the Install Image button at the bottom right of where you usually select a flashable zip)
Flash the System Image to your System Partition
Optional if you want root (but reccomended): Reboot to recovery again then flash your choice of Magisk. I use 17.1 as I can get galaxy wear to work with that version.
Reboot your device and you should be good to go! No need to flash gapps as they're included.
What's different to the PE in project treble forum?

I notice that you haven't added known issues to the op? Are you waiting on further testing? Would be useful to have.
Thank you for the rom btw. And thanks to the entire opensauce9810 team. Very much appreciated
MANY THANKS, rom looks awesome!! My screen brightness is set to 100% however it looks like it is on 15% I can hardly see stuff on my screen, is there a way to increase brightness with build prop or something?
UPDATE
Never mind established it was the universal ctsprofile: false that I installed

You need to enable the extended brightness range in phh settings too under Samsung. Will let your screen go brighter

Thanks is there a way to pass ctsProfile in magisk? It remains falls.
Since my Note 9 is still on it's way and I'm on a S9 now I have a simple question.
In 8.1 AOSP ROM's IMS services and the Iris scanner don't work. Do they work on this ROM? And if Iris scanner doesn't work, can we still use biometric unlocking? I hate fingerprint scanner so on the rear as I use wallet cases and can't easily reach it.
I believe smart lock face unlock does not work. I added my face to it but I'm unable to 'improve face matching'. It simply says cannot start finding your face. And nothing happens when I try to unlock my phone using face unlock either.
Other than that, the typing feels a bit slower than stock Samsung roms. Not sure if it's the touch response or what. I disabled the haptic feedback for the keyboard but it still seems a bit slower. Could be just me though..
Apart from these issues, rom is definitely a daily driver so hats off to the entire team

Download hideprops in Magisk downloads. Reboot to initialise it. then download a terminal emulator from the playstore and type the command "props" without the quotes.
Grant SU to the terminal
then pick edit fingerprint. Select Samsung, and choose the s9+ fingerprint (number 22 I think). Reboot and then CTS will pass.

Iris Scanner will never work in an AOSP Rom. The libs are proprietary to Samsung experience roms.

Yeah it's a little quirk with GSI's unfortunatley. The vibration motor causes somewhat of a delay when typing. Turning off haptic feedback completely seems to make it normal for me. I've gotten used to typing without haptic feedback now haha.

I noticed that you mentioned in the OP that you use Galaxy wear?
A bit OT but is there a way to use the Gear with different roms without having the Gear being reset every time? It just seems to get reset every time I pair with it on a new rom.

I wish there was, I'm so sick of having to reset it I literally use my watch just as a watch most of the time because I'm flashing new builds so often. It's a pain in the neck and I don't know why Samsung did it this way, it's frustrating.
Hi #CodeFox thanks for your work I want to ask you something, I know that the answer will be absolutely no but I loved to give it a try
Can you please make a pixel experience p ROM for Samsung galaxy j4
Awesome
Can't wait to try this

Hi all,
Will Dolby atmos work?
Hi there,
great ROM. Flashed it today and so far everything looks very good.
Just tried out the camera and found a weird bug:
When taking videos (front and back camera), the screen flashes green about every second during recording. The video itself is not affected.
Seems to happen for every camera app.
Any way to fix this?

Bugs
Bluetooth won't enable... seems permissions related?
As usual, this wouldn't be possible without all the hard work from @crpalmer and the CM team in general.
In fact he already did most of the bringup for Slim, so apologies for dragging on this one - I know people were waiting for it.
Enjoy! I am thinking I can keep up with the weekly schedule Slim does, I'll try to coordinate my builds with their weeklies as best I can.
Let me know!
OK, audio was easily fixed... just needed to add audio-caf
Other issues are still present.
Good news! Thank you very much for bringing SlimBean to us! ☺

Awesome. Of course this drops right as I'm heading out of town and can't flash, but that's how my life goes. If you're not sure you've got the right repo and such, ask the guys in the N5 thread. They often help people trying to make their own builds. Friendly bunch there. Thanks for your work on this (and of course crpalmer!).

See the post I quoted, it's fixed.
I've also fixed the keyboard issue... I guess I should play with different values, but the values used for CM didn't work... default is 4, crpalmer adjusted to 5... which worked for other ROM's. I just tried 15 for fun, and it worked.
Going to attempt 6 and see if that is good enough. I'm not sure what the negative effect would be of turning up this divider tho?
I finally got a chance to flash this and though I haven't tested everything possible, so far I've not encountered a single issue. I'm just thrilled to death. It's just like on my Nexus 5. I can't thank you, @arrrghhh (and of course @crpalmer for his device wizardry) enough.

I would never use it either if it weren't for my MOGA controller and Dead Trigger 2.

If using the Tab for WiFi calls (Groove IP, &c), Bluetooth becomes a useful feature to have.

I didn't say it was useless, I just didn't see a need for it.
Also, isn't GrooveIP basically dead now that Google removed support for third parties?
I wish Hangouts was as good on Android as it was on iOS... sad really. But I digress, I'll look at the issue...

lol, Slim likes to use a different DPI. I believe Slim is working towards a DPI updater on-the-fly... otherwise you'll have to adjust it in the build.prop.

Understood as to your statement of its utility, inasmuch as one person's feature is another's bloat. As to Groove IP rendered dead, it was given another span of life via the entity Ring.to. Swift to establish, and a host of additional numbers to grab. Works flawlessly.
I as you am dumbfounded by the superior quality of Hangouts for iOS.
Thanks for all you do.

I've never messed with Dpi before, but you learn something new every day. Lookin good now!! Thanks!!
I've noticed apps seem to treat the tablet as though it has a menu button. No three dot button in UI or menu button appears in soft keys. Is there a build.prop edit or something that can fix this?

And it may take till Christmas to get one. The Exynos processor in it makes it harder to work with, from what I understand. The 8.4 has the better supported Snapdragon 800 and is not too different from the Note 3.

Dear LinhPhi9x94,
Thank you very much for BlurOS Release2!
Cool build !!!
Looks interesting. Is this ROM based on CM?
Can't log in to my Google account during setup, if I skip signing in it advances to the groovy blue/purple Blur logo on white background with the network speed and battery logo at top right corner but can't get past here... secret?
OK now, fourth time was the winner with a few manual reboots.
Very nice fresh look, unique.
I like it. Good job.
Does this ROM actually use 3.10 kernel?
Can we flash supersu 2.65 or above for this rom as superuser is a bit uncertain for some apps and is required to ask again and again after every reboot
Edit : supersu is working
Customization KILLS !!!
Just installed the rom via TWRP 3.0.2. The following are my comments:
♦ The customization is simply awesome *Almost every customization from every kind of rom out there is present inbuilt* Awesome work by the BlurOs team ! (P.S I love lockscreen blur, its present)
* The default wallpaper sucks though
* Camera : Snap Camera (better pictures than sultan's, my opinion)
* Root is inbuilt
* Performance is excellent. The off screen gestures are pretty snappy
* The gallery app is quicker than most
* Battery life will be updated in a day or two
* Addictive Rom ! Do try it people !
Awesome work !! Best rom I've flashed till date !! ♥in it !!
BUG :
# The system update says there is no internet connection, even when the phone has one !

If you're a fan of how IOS looks, then this is the perfect ROM for you.
This has the CMTE theme engine installed and has a 4 pre-installed themes you can pick from, one of them is a dark theme which I'm very happy about.
I'm going to keep this ROM on my phone for a few days to see how I like it. I never thought I'd stick with a ROM that replicates the look of iOS, but it's a very interesting idea and It's very refreshing compared to all the stock looking ROMs that are available.
Also, in additition to looking so different from all the other ROMS out there, it has a ton of settings and options that most major and minor roms have, anything you can imagine really.
Edit:
Only downside i've found so far is that there's no way to disable the Capacitive Button Lights.
Edit2:
Can't seem to delete Gapps from the ROM. Un-install them through Titanium backup, but they reinstall themselves after a reboot. Anyone have any ideas?

i installed opengapps as part of the blurOS install process - my regular filters (include/exclude) and things worked well
no major issues. privacy settings, themes work well. Minor issue - phone calls sometimes cannot be picked using the circular green/red buttons and i had to swipe down the notification area to accept calls. Also, the default theme background is white + foreground text also white. Changing to another theme fixed that issue
Hello, what kernel you can try with this rom?
hey guys im getting error executing binary, unable to mount.
im currently using multirom with cm13 on primary and cm12 on secondary.

The ROM comes with the gaps bre-baked, which is why it's so big. I was trying to delete them so I could use MicroG to immitate gapps, but not actually have any gapps on my phone. But the normal gapps kept getting reinstalled when I rebooted the phone.
I installed rom yesterday. I'm liking the customization provided. Also I feel audio output is far better than all other ROMs i tried. Thanks. I will post my battery review later

To God be the glory! Another successful rom!
Paranoid Android meets AOKP and CyanogenMod, all in one rom. That's what PAC stands for. It is a CyanogenMod based rom with cherry picks from AOKP and PA so you can have some really great features. A little more streamlined that AOKP, yet a little more feature filled than CyanogenMod. If AOKP was too much to handle, but PA or CM is too bland, then this is the middle of the road rom for you!

Notes:
Here are some notes about the rom that I thought might help:
Random Reboot issues?
If you are having random reboot issues with the new kernel, you can adjust the settings as follows:
CPU max freq. 2496 MHz
GPU max freq. 500 MHz
CPU governor interactive
GPU governor msm-adreno-tz
I/O scheduler CFQ
That should solve your issue with the kernel. If you want, you may also flash this baseline kernel:
http://www.mediafire.com/file/h9b68aaon1yvr11/aokp_pac-mm-kernel-baseline.zip
This baseline kernel will always work just fine, however the battery life and performance are not as good as the AKLU kernel.
Root access:
Be sure to enable developer options so you can enable root access to apps and/or adb. In the developer options you can also set advanced reboot options!
If the screen looks red-ish, check the settings->display->live display options, you may want to turn them off, it is a low light sensitive display option.
Airplane mode - While switching between WiFi and regular data, on rare occasions, the phone will get stuck where you have data or WiFi with the ! mark and no connectivity. If this happens, you don't have to reboot, just hit airplane mode, give it a second, then hit it again to get everything working again.
T-Mobile users with device model = unknown:
If you are using a N915T (like myself), then after you flash the datazip file, you will notice that your phone reports itself as "unknown" to apps like XDA, TapTalk, About Phone, etc.
The fix is very easy!
-Open /system/build.prop in any text editor
-Anywhere in the file, add this line:
Code:
ro.build.model=SM-N915T
Save and exit, then reboot your phone. You can check "about phone" under settings, you should see yourself as SM-N915T, and apps like XDA should report you as Samsung Galaxy Note Edge.
Setting selinux to permissive:
See @oscarmaldonado post here for one of the many ways to do this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=69235667&postcount=17
Apps:
Side App Bar - This has a semi useful side "edge" bar feel.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=infamous.apps.appsbarfree
Swiftkey Keyboard - This keyboard can be set so the keyboard does not wrap around the screen.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.touchtype.swiftkey
Spen Command - This app cost a few dollars, but enables the Spen to be somewhat smart again, rather than just a pointer stick.

This would be a big change for me . I have the verzion version and little to no development. So looking forward to getting this . Keep up the good work
First and foremost thank you for bringing CM13 to the note edge ......Wanna point out a couple of things, on the PAC man bulid the fingerprint works on the lock screen however not with third party apps (Just tested with Lockdown Pro and assumeing is the same with other third party apps that can utilize fingerprint) On unicorn bulid fingerprint does not work on lock screen nor third party fingerprint apps (Also just tested with Lockdown Pro....) Unicorn has a navbar and Pacrom does not which is important since recent button does not work on both CM bulids.....If interested in using Pacrom cause of fingerprint I would suggest using LMT from XDA as it's a pie navbar and it looks cool just set it up to open recent.....On both bulids you cannot use your headphones to make calls or receive calls unfortunately you won't hear nothing but when you take them out you can hear your call......The battery lights in notification on both bulids doesn't let you pick the colors you want but keep on going threw colors you will find one you like well it's better then stock roms, green and red light I'm currently using a nice yellow light , unicorn rom obviously has way more customize options then pacman but fingerprint works on pacman so that says alot if fingerprint Is your thing if not go with unicorn ....Alternatives for spen
Are using spen command (My preference) or using CM spen add on app from the play store with Note buddy.......Both roms can be used as daily drivers if fingerprint Is added to unicorn in the future I will be leaving Pacrom and coming to unicorn as for now pacman is my AOSP driver of choice......

PoochyX,
Thanks for letting me know! I can't be on both ROMs at once, but I like your comparative analysis!
Yes, both ROMs need a little more "smoothing out", but hopefully we can get those things ironed out soon.
I have never had a phone with a finger print sensor, so making that part work is a learning curve for me.

Response
Alaska thank you for your immediate response, Alaska where do you think the headphones not being able to communicate with the calls is coming from, obviously it's not cause of the 5.1.1. bootloader cause on the T-Mobile resurrection remix bulid which was a lollipop bulid running on the same bootloader rom as your 2 bulids was having the same issue also the same with the 2 alpha CM bulids for this and the international models ......Same issue with recent button either not working or being mapped incorrectly across all T-Mobile AOSP bulids could it just be a note edge incompatibility or you see a fix in the future more for the headphones then recent button cause theres alot of Alternatives for recent button......Again thank you for your time and dedication if I get this job next week I will gladly donate to your cause......

PoochyX,
First and foremost, I do not accept any donations, I do this for fun!
As for the recents/headphones across all custom ROMs on this phone: we are using the great work of Mickey, Deadman, and OldDroid, who worked on this phone a year or two ago. I used their device trees as a base, and now am "pruning" these trees to be more functional. So for these initial builds, the problems that they had is problems that we have. However, it is my goal to work on and fix as many of these problems as I can, good Lord willing, and time allowing.
Currently I am working on the recent button.
Notice that the recent button does light when you press it? This screenshot shows that the kernel does know that the user pressed the button. So that is great news because the button does function, and is seen, just improperly mapped to a function.
While building, there is a file called sec_touchkey that specifically handles the two front touch buttons, so I have changed some of these values, and we shall see if that helps when I build again on Monday.
Hope that helps!

But to the dev of this ROM.. good to have new roms to try.. thank you very much.
Do you recoment a specific kernel?

Also on the pac man ROM if you try to make a 911 call the phone automatically reboots....
Alaska I stand corrected the fingerprint does work also in the unicorn build......Unlike the pacman build right on setup it works....
With unicorn straight from setup it doesn't register you have to go to finger print in settings and do it like 2 times for one print to register also the 911 issue is in this build also so I'm assuming it's a CM bug

New build is up!
Praise God, a new build is up!
So, the OP has been updated with a new build. Not too many fixes yet, but you *should* be able to dirty flash this. I have tested the build, but as a clean flash, since I was jumping back and forth between other roms.
Change Log:
20161024:
-Built with Java 8.
-Added Kernel Adiutor and SELINUX plugin.
-Set kernel to SELINUX permissive by default. (You can use the SELINUX plugin to switch to enforce, if desired.)
Still working on the recent button. This change did not fix it, but hopefully we can get that resolved soon, as well as a few other things.
Also, adding some new Governors to the kernel as we speak!

Huzzah new Governors! Always a win in my book.
I've noticed an issue with no sound in-calls on my n915T region (Australia). I'm going to strip apart the radio fix over the next few days, and check to make sure it isn't a simple case of incrorrect / missing CSC codes.

While I have walked the Gold Coast, and had beets on my burger in Brisbane, I currently reside in a much colder place. However, my N915T has no issues with sound during calls.
Perhaps the N910G datafix file may help you? Or one of the other datazip files?

To God be the glory, my Slim7 Nougat project finally works on the Note Edge!
This is a very slimmed down version of Android Nougat, almost a "vanilla" experience with a few tasteful perks! By design, this ROM comes without root for those who wish to have a "pure" version without the entanglements that come with root, but it can also be easily rooted by using chainfire's SuperSU (see below for instructions and downloads). In it's default form, it is perfect for those banking apps, workplaces, and games that require you to have a phone without root. No need for tricks or hacks, all while having the latest and greatest Android on your Samsung Galaxy Note Edge.
If you do decide to use root, then you will be pleasently surprised to know that Substratum and layering works with this ROM. While not perfect, for the most part it functions well in my initial testing. However, if you find problems arise after installing a theme, please remove the theme to make sure it is not a substratum related issue.
**** This is an UNOFFICIAL ROM. Install at your own risk! ****
This SlimRoms Nougat ROM was built for the TBLTEXX using modified LineageOS TBLTEXX trees. I have only tried this on a TBLTETMO device, using the datazip files, but you are welcome to try it on anything AT YOUR OWN RISK. The updater script would need to be edited for something other than TBLTE, TBLTEDT, TBLTEXX, TBLTETMO, TBLTECAN. Chime in if it worked on your device.
A huge thanks to the SlimRoms Project team!
Disclaimer: SlimRoms is not responsible for any damages to your device.
All of my work is completely available for any who wish to use or modify it. I didn't make SlimRoms, the device trees, or vendor blobs. I simply used and edited existing material. A huge thanks should go to those who actually created this stuff.

Be sure to only choose the SLIM 7 version.
TBLTECAN and TBLTETMO users may use the Data Zip files here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/no...ment/ril-data-fixes-6-0-1-bootloader-t3546110
However, there is a TBLTETMO/TBLTECAN version of this rom in the T-Mobile thread, but I did test that this worked.
This Rom has been stable for me, however, Nougat is new, so be prepared for some little hic-ups here and there. Be sure to follow these installation steps very carefully, as they may be different then what you are used to.
!!!FIRST BOOT TAKES LONGER THAN 5 EARTH MINUTES TO COMPLETE!!!
!!!IF YOU FLASH SUPERSU, IT WILL REBOOT SEVERAL TIMES DURING INSTALL, THAT IS OKAY!!!
Installation instructions ( TO BE NON-ROOTED ) :
-YOU MUST BE ON THE 6.0.1 MODEM and BOOTLOADER!
-Download ROM, and if desired, AKLU kernel, and gapps, and put them on your phone's external storage.
-Reboot into recovery mode - TWRP (I personally installed this using 3.0.0-0).
-Backup what you had. (Just to be safe.)
-Wipe. (I personally wipe everything prior to flashing new roms, but at least do the basic wipe.)
-Install Rom.
-Install Gapps. - Optional
--> OPTIONAL - After first boot, then go back to recovery and install the AKLU kernel. (Note that without root, you cannot change the settings of the kernel, and it is a bit agressive in the default state.... I don't recommend this for non-rooted phones.)
--> OPTIONAL - TBLTETMO/TBLTECAN users can flash the data zip files after the first sucessful boot.

-Enjoy!
Code:
What works:
So far everything that I have tried works, such as
- Camera for video and pictures (use orange camera app, not traditional blue camera app.)
- Phone calls/receiving
- Data 2g/3g/LTE
- Bluetooth
- WiFi
- PTP/MTP
- GPS
- WiFi hotspot
- Multi-Window
- Fingerprint sensor* See notes.
etc....
What doesn't:
- Notification LED only shows RED and YELLOW. To show YELLOW, choose CYAN as the notification color, and it will show up YELLOW. All other color choices appear RED.
- The automatic time zone function forgets where you are alot. Use the manual time zone instead.
- Choosing to reboot the phone sometimes takes a loooong time. It may be better to Power off and then start the phone, which is faster for some reason.
- Built in blue camera app sometimes gets "stuck" or freezes or crashes, I tested several other camera apps, and all worked fine, including the orange camera app and opencamera from the fdroid repository.
- There is no "edge" feature at this time.
- Let me know in the forums if you find other issues.
Main Features:
- Merged with android-7.1.1_r13
- SlimDim, now with 100% more dimming
- SlimAction, Splits screen action (long press app in slim recent)
- SlimRecents, an alternative recents
- Notification log (long press statusbar header)
- Kill app from notification (long pres app notification)
- Substratum support (if rooted)
- OmniSwitcher built in so the kill function works with or without root.
- Advanced reboot (found under security settings).

Notes about the rom:
Fingerprint sensor:
I have successfuly used the fingerprint sensor, but it is a bit sketchy. To make it work:
- Go to register your fingerprint under security settings.
- I registered all 5 of my fingertips all at once, by clicking add another, and only 2 of them "stuck" when I clicked done. I redid it registering one finger over and over again several times, and it eventually registered and stuck.
- If after clicking done, the fingerprint settings says x-number of fingerprints registered, then those fingerprints are working. Once registered, then you can use it in apps, and for the lockscreen, which did work about 1/2 of the time for me.
- If the lockscreen does not show the "fingerprint" icon, reboot to make it appear.
Open Source apps:
There are quite a few really good open source apps included in this build, such as:
Browser app
Amaze file manager app
SatStat GPS app
Camera app (orange one)
All of these great apps and more can be found at https://f-droid.org/repository/browse/. You can also download other great apps there like music players, games, and everything else you might need. The Fdroid app allows you to maintain up to date version control and simple downloading and installation of these apps and is a lightweight alternative to the Google Play Store. that is certainly worth taking a look.
Hello, this ROM is also compatible with all versione / model of Note Edge?
T-Mobile, Can (W8), Sprint, Verizon, USC (R4) etc... ?
Thank you very much for the support!

Good question. In a word, no. However, another user in the data zip thread (referenced in op) successfully used the data zip to flash an international ROM to his us cellular phone. You can read more about it there.
Wow hats off my man !
A very dedicated developer you are mate . And you just cooked us up one of my favourite roms !!
Thanks a lot Al
Ambient Display Issue
I love this rom, yet more great work from AKLU, but a big problem I have noticed with the rom is that Ambient Display stays on, even when disabled in settings. It drains battery pretty bad and causes my leg to press screen in pocket. Thanks for your hard work!

As for the ambient display, it is in the settings menu twice, once under "display" and once under "gestures" do you have both off? Does it still happen if both are off? Thanks!
Actually, I think I fixed it. The gestures and display menu settings copy each other, if I turn off in one, it turns off in other and vice versa. But I found that if you turn it off and on twice, the setting seems to stick and it turns off. If you only turn it off once from it being on after first boot, the setting doesn't stick until you cycle it one more time. The ROM runs amazing though, and isn't nearly as power hungry as TouchWiz; Qualcomm quick charge actually charges quick now! Another bug I have found however is that stuff like gyroscope seems to freeze up along with accelerometer. Google Cardboard for example immediately stops responding to the sensors. And there are times that the device will stop auto rotating, a fix to that is to open YouTube app on a video and it fixes. This is still a fast and amazing ROM though, I just wanted to let you know about these bugs too, so they can be looked at. I appreciate your work a lot. You and Mickey387 are pretty much the only people keeping this dev scene alive. If you need anything like logs or to test something, I would be glad to help!

Thanks for the kind words! Yes, @Mickey387 is the man! I mostly just fine tune his really great work to use it on these other roms.
I am currently testing a new updated build of this rom, so that should be out soon. This is Slim 0.7, and I am testing Slim 0.13, so quite a few fixes, although not much more in the feature department, just keeping it slim. Interestingly, they did change the SlimLauncher to be more like the PixelLauncher, rather than the traditional TrebuchetLauncher style.
It also should fully support OMS, rather than legacy mode, but I am still testing that.
As for testing, yes, anytime that you have an error, please take a logcat, I will be able to help much better if I have logs to work with.... That being said, if you wait a few days for the new release, then test and log if the error persists, that would be great!
I use this great ROM till one week. I use it without the UKLA-kernel, with the hope to get better battery drain.
For me is one little problem. The inactivity display is a nice feature. But when I get a notification, the display is to dark for daily use. When I want to start the phone by active inactivity display, the display keeps dark. I have to press the power button twice to get full light. That's a long way.
Perhaps this is a normal nougut-feature?
---------- Post added at 07:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:07 AM ----------
Part 2 - I have to change the train. [emoji3]
Because of my little problem above, I try to disable the inactivity display, but unfortunately the solution from DaKillaz98 doesn't work for me. [emoji17]
Well, I found out that the solution worked until I rebooted, now ambient display is stuck on. Knickelei, the ambient display staying dark is a bug with Android not restoring brightness values after the screen has been turned on. Another bug I found is that the camera display when taking a picture in Facebook Messenger is really warped and weird. I will provide logcats when I get them.

Currently having issues with 0.13, the sound quit working, so the upgrade/update is on hold while I investigate.
@AlaskaLinuxUser you said no, not all phones will work with this rom. but can you please point out what phones will work?
I have a N915F.
Thanx for the work !

This rom should work on your phone. As long as you are on the 6.0.1 modern and boot loader.
Also, you can use this rom:

Hi there! I'm looking for a custom rom that has the following:
- Android 11 or less (Android 12 is very heavy ) - ( I was using LOS 19.1 by zeelog with A12 and the truth is that the phone suffered a lot with certain apps. Android 12 is definitely not for this phone).
- A good "one handed mode" like original miui rom.
- Stable and smooth and without many bugs. That the features of this phone work without problems. (fingerprint, led notifications, etc)
- Something customizable
- Some built-in tool like closing applications with security (fingerprint, password)
I was looking through the CR "resurrection remix" had some of these features but nowhere did I find if it had "one handed mode".
ArrowOs is another CR that generates me doubt, but I do not know if it is very stable and if it has some features that I need especially the "one handed mode".
I discarded MIUI custom roms because the last one I had (original) was being too slow, I do not want to imagine a more updated CR.

You're absolutely right, Android 12 is too much that mido can handle. Pick A11 or A10.
My all-time favourite custom rom is crDroid - very long time in the market, good opinion. Smooth, stable and customizable. Unfortuanetly I don't think you will find any rom with MIUI-like one-handed mode. There was an Xposed module mimicking this behaviour (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cn.zhougy0717.xposed.niwatori&hl=en_US&gl=US) but it's long gone I think

Hello!
Exactly that custom rom I was trying to install now, it feels smooth but I miss the fact that it even has a one-handed mode. Thanks for the recommendation!
edit: btw that app that your recommend is for root user right?

Yes, but it's obsolete and Im not sure on which Android version it was working fine... But there are some nice alternatives to one-handed mode which doesn't require root. Have you tried something like this perhaps?
Quick Cursor: One-Handed mode - Apps on Google Play
Makes it easier to use large smartphones with one hand by using a cursor.

amazing recommendation! thanks you
I installed the first app, also the xposed module to make it work and it worked only when I opened the app, then when I exited the app it didn't work anymore, I don't know what I've been doing wrong (I'm a newbie) or if the app really doesn't work well for android 11.
But the second application can replace although it is not the same obviously, but to get out of the way serves.

Nice, I'm glad you like it. Sometimes it's even better than one handed mode since you can reach everything while still keeping big screen. I use something similar but root-based, although I'm on MIUI and still have one handed mode
