why is not a small gapps included within this fine rom?

I insalled hexagon on a new x829 and was basically stuck without gapps

had to download&flash gapps before using hexagon

as gapps seems to be needed why not include a basic gapps within hexagon?`

Many of us prefer to select which Gapps package we'll install for ourselves, as everyone has different requirements and configurations. For example, while you might want Pico Gapps, I like the Nano or Stock packages. Also, it's really quite easy to download Gapps separately and only takes several minutes usually... ?

Hello

First I want to say it's the best ROM for the LeMax2 i tried.

Really smooth and beautiful. Remind me of the nexus clean android experience.

It even handles well RTL languages, except small issue of lock-screen clocks which reverts the minutes and hours location.

Fingerprint however is unstable. It is working very inconsistently. Is there a solution for it?

BTW, is there OTA updates to this ROM or do we need to flash it every time?

Thank you for your work, Shiva!

Issue 1. I'm running your ROM and I like it. But I have been wondering whether or not it's possible to hide/remove the Google button in the top left corner of the screen (desktop & lockscreen). My issue with it- it brings up a menu, but only for a split second and then it disappears.

So. I thought, maybe it's because I'm missing GAPPS. Did that, installed GAPPS (arm64, pico for 7.1 ROMs) and it still won't work. If I can't use that button, why is it there?

Issue 2. Both, the stock browser and my preferred browser (Opera) run into the same error. (error: site crashed, reload webage)

So, I installed Chrome... no luck either.

Issue 3. Camera app. Switching from picture mode to recording mode crashes the app.

Newbie question

Apologies for the Newbie question, it's been a long time since I flashed a ROM or rooted a phone!!

I've a brand new LeTV LeEco Le Max 2 X829 (Android 6.0 OS Qualcomm Snapdragon 820, 4GB RAM 64GB ROM etc) which I haven't even powered up yet. I'd like to flash this Rom straight away.

I've downloaded the Zip file but don't know how to get it onto the phone and then flash it. I assume it's via TWRP or similar but I can't find instructions here how to do that.

Would someone mind spoon feeding me a couple of pointers as to how I can flash this ROM on a brand new phone?

Really appreciate the help.

In short, install adb and fastboot drivers on your pc, connect the phone to pc, unlock the bootloader, flash twrp recovery, boot into recovery, take a twrp backup *must* and then wipe system, data, cache & dalvik and install the rom with gapps.
