Hello,

happy to state I have Lineageos 15.1 working on my Honor View 10 BKL-L09.

Thanks to LuK1337 and everyone who has contributed - great work:good:!

Just to give a little back :angel:, let me summarize what I did step by step "for those about to rock":

After 15 days of using lineage-15.1-20180715_120335 as my daily phone, it is

- stable - no crashes so far

- fast

- clean - much much better than the Honor stock rom, where you have no idea what data flows where

- like it one can have rooted or not

- even without AudioFX, the sound is quite good (to my ears)

Findings include:

- Camera - cant get a picture done with a flash. Looks like the flash is earlier than the photo. (Same with 'Open Camera' from Google Play). Anyone the same issue?

- Music - stops to play songs after a minute or so. VLC works fine.

- I miss the AudioFX just for having it. Tested a few Equalizers from Google Play, none is good. Will it be there one day?

- I'd to have the Infrared working, for TV remote. This shows as confirmed broken, what is the reference app to test - for a SONY TV?
