My opinion is that Oreo in general aspects performs worse and is much less polished than Nougat. And it's not that Oreo has been in the market for a short time, precisely. I honestly stay with Nougat. A pity that Jaguar Nougat does not keep updating, adding all the improvements and new features of Jaguar Oreo.

My review on april 3 build after using it for a week compared to last build- It performs way better in gaming as compared to last build and also battery life improved after installing april 3 build.. I get at least 30 mins more on april 3 build under heavy usage and 45 mins more under moderate usage.. Everything else works and performs as usual.. big shout out for removing omniswitch and also for reducing the toast notification area.. It looks cool now

Hello again! I've managed to sort out most of the issues I've reported in this thread and am loving this ROM. But I require some assistance re VoLTE. I don't think it's working on my device and I've double checked using another phone to verify any network issues.

As far as I can tell, I'm on BB 1.76.

Any suggestions please? Thank you.

Did you enable VoLTE in stock?
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] guyz_ahead:
The issue is random. Last night was good. 100 to 98 after 8 idle hours with network and wifi on. No stereo audio problems facing as such. Thermal problem still exist, i.e. if the device is heated above 60-65C then all games lag, even after setting thermal throttle to 100, and disabling thermal drivers. Cannot understand why is it throttling temperature even after i changed the settings. [MENTION=5075064]optimumpro[/MENTION] fix for this lag? Happens only when device heated.

[MENTION=4802937]rocky459[/MENTION] bro try checking the battery by turning on airplane mode for one night.
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] A331709:

[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] optimumpro:
There are also Qaulcomm and OEM protections that kick in when the temperature goes up above 60 degrees. You can modify /system/vendor/etc/thermal-engine.conf, but it is not recommended.

The point is: when you start a poorly optimized game with the phone idle temperature at 50, you will have throttling, even if kernel thermal protection trigger temperatures are raised.

Hey [MENTION=5075064]optimumpro[/MENTION] , not everyone here wants awesome performance. Some of us like battery more than performance. Can you build us an underclocked and/or undervolted kernel which will not reduce performance that much but improve battery? Similar to what [MENTION=8950490]amog787[/MENTION] did for his Bootleggers ROM. Maybe he can help? I got excellent sot there but here it can be better. Thanks for the ROM!

Edit- could you include pixel launcher instead of lawn chair or make lawn chair user app? I need to uninstall it everytime..
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] Andro Enthusiast:
Based on my experience and based on the changes that developers are doing in recent updates, I think bringing a build with underclocked / under volted kernel will not do good in long run.

I faced kernel panics when the device was in sleep and not in use in AOSIP ROM which I really liked a lot but came with an underclocked kernel. The developer who tried under clocking for reduced heating and also better battery, has reverted majority of those changes in subsequent builds including today's.

I faced kernel panic when I tried AR Beast kernel with arbitrary undervolting as per [MENTION=5075064]optimumpro[/MENTION].

Bootleggers dev is trying with different kernels in every build. He may most probably settle with stock values in kernel in subsequent builds !

I am currently using AEX 5.4 which has a kernel with stock frequencies, I believe. I get good battery life !

I am no Techie and with due Respect to the Developers of the ROMs and Kernel that I have mentioned above , I feel that Stock frequencies are Best !
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] optimumpro:
You can underclock and undervolt to your liking in Kernel Adiutor. Or you can create profiles there (for regular use, gaming, etc).
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] Pulsar.uy:
That's right... in fact this guy: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=76144776&postcount=3371 has underlocked max freq. to 1036 MHz (less than the half of normal clock).

So [MENTION=6911799]GopalKaul[/MENTION] , you can do whatever you want and customize to your needs (for me is like having a Ferrari and drive up to 60 Km/h.... but... :good: )

Check that post! he made a good job for battery lovers :D

[MENTION=5075064]optimumpro[/MENTION] Thats right PUBG, is highly unoptimised for android...I have played it in Iphone6 without any lags or heat at all.

Thanks mate, although I suggested underclocking, but i rarely do it myself. (Only when device is pretty heated) Still underclocking is great if you are a moderate user and want heavy battery. Try experimenting different clocks.

I hate to flood this thread with similar posts but yesterday I've checked how long does it take my device to receive location coordinates in navigation app (maps.me if it matters). It took like 7 minutes ;(

I'm puzzled because it looks like I'm the only one to have problems with GPS on this ROM...

Original ROM on my device was ZUI 2.0.093ST with baseband version 9-00026-M8996FAAAANAZM-1.63821.1. Than I've flashed Indian Nougat and clean flashed Jaguar O (March 7th build) after that. Now I'm on April 3rd build which was flashed dirty. On ZUI firmware GPS worked flawlessly. Didn't check on Indian Nougat build though...

Any thoughts on this matter?

Did you enable camera2api in settings?
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] senthamizhan:
You need gapps for google camera to work. Or you can install gsmcore.apk from microg
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] optimumpro:
You have temperatures for CPU, GPU and battery. Throttling starts at about 65 degrees (first number) and stops at the second number (55 something). You can do there whatever you want, but I don't recommend messing with those numbers.

You didn't say which baseband you have now. 1.63 is an old one and in fact could cause gps problems. The best baseband for Jaguar O (and N) is Indian 1.76. I have 1.76 and it takes about 30 seconds to lock for the first time (after clean flash or upgrade) and about 3-5 seconds thereafter. I don't think you can do better than this. :)
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] pipyakas:
Is there something wrong with the power consumption calculation? Because Im pretty sure that 1400mah is not 15% the battery of a 3500mah phone :eek:
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] pipyakas:
What you've just done is removing that stock thermal engine all together, now you have to enable intellithermal and it would be the only thermal engine
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] GopalKaul:
15% of app usage not device usage!

Device usage has factors like screen, network standby too....

This app usage % doesn't include those factors
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] pipyakas:
It still wouldn't make sense, since I was at 50% battery at that point and asphalt 8 alone in the background cant eat 1400mah of the battery since I was also using other things in the foreground
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] guyz_ahead:
Did you charge the phone again but not till 100 less than that? Coz it me be adding the previous consumption. Also 1400 mah (15% of app usage) its system calculated, these are complex calculations and are almost always accurate until there is a fatal system error. And regarding thermal, i just rename the file as per my requirement. While gaming i dont want any thermal driver coz my temperature doesn't go beyond 60-65. [MENTION=5075064]optimumpro[/MENTION] if you could by any innovation add long screenshots, i would be so very thankful.
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] pipyakas:
Ofc I didnt recharge the phone but dont reset battery usage, this is straight from a charge to 90%

About the thermal, after you remove all the thermal engine conf files the parameters seem to be picked up in KA, since I managed to up the limit to 90C previously, although your tests might be different than mine. Also which game did you test that doesnt have thermal go beyond 65C? Since PUBGM got to 92C on the CPU for me

7.Does offline charging works?

8.Antutu score ?

9.Is it fully customizable like AOSIP ,AEX or is it less subjected to custombility?

Volte has always worked.

GPS works except one user who has issue, check his post above.

Doesn't overheat for me. I don't play a lot games, I feel no lag in normal games, few users say it lags on pubg.

Pip works.

Kernel version - don't bother, a .xxx change to .XXX+1 doesn't matter.

Just clean flash.

Offline charging works on Indian baseband 1.76.

Don't know antutu score.

Highly customizable if not fully. Got themes inbuilt.

Magisk work, why will it not?

Sot - varies.

Only equaliser is inbuilt.

Bugs - ask other users.

Slow motion - ask other users.

But where are the answers that are best to your knowledge?

I can disable fingerprint sensor when screen is off, which would address the problem of false positives, when the phone is in a pocket. You would have to press and hold the button to wake the phone first. This would also improve battery, because fp sensor scans for fingerprint incessantly.
