The issue with oreo and full deodexed roms:

I don't know if you heard about that problem but oreo roms have problems with building dalvik-cache when the rom is fully deodexed. Hence the rom lags and is damn slow all over the place unless you use odex framework. I have patched the sepolicy for this purpose and it works fine BUT (and that's the main problem):

Magisk does replace this patched sepolicy. What does this mean for you as user?

My suggestion is to flash the rom without any root method installed. Then boot your device one time and set up your phone. In this first boot, the dalvik-cache could be built with this patched sepolicy file in the kernel.

When you are finished, go back to TWRP, simply flash magisk root and you are good to go. Now slowdowns, nothing.

I'm sure many people won't follow my advice here and face the laggy system. Please help them with this answer here, thank you dear readers :good:

What else is important to know:

This rom update will be the last one from my side. I don't know if someone else will continue the project or not, this isn't up to me. Why I will stop you may ask yourself now.

Well, I have supported several devices over the last few years and one thing was always the same back then: I had time. A lot of time. This has changed now mainly over the last year (I mean, when did any update from my side took so long like this one? Exactly, never ^^). I can't spend much time anymore on android due to the university and my job. If I could manage it somehow I loved to keep on developing... :(

I will let this thread open for some days/weeks and then close it. Of course you are always very welcome to post on www.grifodev.ch (nothing will be closed there).

As mentioned above, the BatControl Pro is now fully compatible with this rom as well. Sadly our designer has a similar fat as me and was never able to finish his design with the IronControl Pro... hence I couldn't release it. If you still want to support / have the pro app get it from here. Features are exactly the same as in the free app, I suggest you to check out the app on the store and decide for yourself if you need it or not :) :fingers-crossed:
