Recommended Installation steps

1.Make nandroid backup of your current ROM and also advisable to make Int storage backup, though wiping Int storage not require, if you are already on custom recovery

2.Recommended to flash latest Bootloader Modem. (latest Oreo will be fine, You can get from Post#4)

3.Factory Reset (without wiping Int storage is fine if you already did it previously) and Install ROM

From aroma Don't select Modem (read below for more details)

4.Wait for Reboot device.

5.On first boot you may miss Network and / or Magisk (Not happens with all), in this case simply reboot the device. If everything fine then setup the device further. In case No network then you can re-run aroma, skip everything and just flash modem. If magisk not available, you can simply install Magisk.apk as regular apk (Available in download area)

6.Now connect and install SW related to your accessory like Gear wearable/ VR etc For gear wear, you will auto notify with new gear detected option if you keep gear wear ready with reset.

In case using titanium backup location on Ext SD then, in preference - select the backup folder location - storage provider and select document provider storage.

Enjoy the ROM!

N950N users

Aroma have option to select N950N CSC, select that option only if your CSC is either KTC/LUC/KSC, If you are using N950N on other CSC, you don't need to select this option.

Note for OEM Issue

ROM is patched for it already and no need to flash anything extra but while flashing ROM, select OEM Fix option in aroma.

There may be OEM unlock option disabled (and remain same even if you enable, because of it is hacked/Patched), simply ignore it, No test users have reported issue of custom binaries error

I recommend clean Installation only. If you are able to handle consequences with dirty flash then proceed, but don't post bugs in forum without clean installing ROM.

Currently Download area have both Oreo (O17) as well Pie (P*)version available, if someone yet not ready to go with Pie. But Oreo development is ended and O17 is the last oreo version and no any support will be provided for Oreo now onwards.

ROM IS FOR END USERS ONLY, To use as base/using part of ROM or re-releasing with modification is strongly prohibited

Your review and reports will be appreciated

Thank you for reading & patience!
