XOS is a new generation Android-based cutting-edge OS based on the Android Open Source Project

What is XOS?

halogenOS, also known as XOS is a new Android ROM which ships with the global aim to

become a modular ROM which keeps as high as potentially possible operating

performance on your mobile device while still maintaining a sufficient feature

base of nice, small and minimal features that would not be available via any

external feature base, extension, mod or plugin.

We hope you have a truly halogenified experience!

Although no data should be lost or damaged by the flashing process,

we advise you to follow the following steps if you are coming from another ROM:
​

* Please take a full [I]Nandroid[/I] backup!
* Please copy your back up to an external device.
* Back up your [I]Internal Storage[/I]
* When completed, [I]clean flash[/I] the build (format using fastboot --wipe-and-use-fbe if your device supports FBE)

Although you usually can dirty flash halogenOS over other ROMs, considering the other

ROM is built upon the same Android version, it is not guaranteed to work.

In case of performance issues or crashes please do a clean flash.

Overall as a ROM, XOS is very stable. Our mission statement has always been of maintaining a clean and properly maintained ROM.

We take proper priority with ensuring that performance and stability are put first, features are considered an extra topping on the cake.
