Some ROM specific instructions

1. On boot, you may not able to use ROM tool or some few features for first few minutes. This issue explained in MustRead.txt file in download area.

3.Since Pie version, OEM is pre-fixed with kernel patch and after flashing ROM, you may find OEM option in developer settings but it will be disable, it is actually because of hack/fix applied. In real case if it is disabled then you may not able to boot rom with TWRP. Simply ignore it.

Read ChangeLog of ROM you are going to flash for any specific instructions. Link to changelog is available in next post below.

Can I dirty flash (without factory reset) ROM?

No, We don't recommend it. If you are able to handle consequences with dirty flash then proceed, but don't post bugs in forum without clean installing ROM.

PS : Who can handle consequences of dirty flashing, they never need to ask this question in forum. ;)
