Features
Click for feature list (helps shorten the OP.)
Always Have a full functional Backup. Just in case!
DOWNLOAD ROM
Vendor image for current build - OPM4 July vendor image - DOWNLOAD VENDOR
GAPPS: For now, open gapps unofficial, also courtsey @razorloves - DOWNLOAD GAPPS
OpenGapps: Not Supported anymore, use @razorloves gapps.
First time installing crDroid to your Pixel, or coming from another ROM:
**NOTE** As you probably know by now, marlin and sailfish are weird. You must be on TWRP 3.2.0.0 to install this! 3.2.1.0 does not allow ROM installation. 3.2.0.0 does not encrypt properly, so you must remove your PIN/password before booting to and / or installing it. These installation instructions will assume you already know and have done that.
**NOTE** You are also able to use 3.2.1.-2 (3.2.0.0 or 3.2.1.-2)(Nothing in between)
** Make sure you're running a proper working Recovery (CWM or TWRP)
1) Copy crDroid zip, gapps zip & vendor img to your device
2) Boot into Recovery
3) Wipe cache, system, & data (or just cache & system for a dirty flash).
4) Flash ROM
5) Flash TWRP ***If you do not do this, you will lose TWRP!***
6) Reboot back into TWRP
7) Flash vendor image
7a) Mount vendor partition, navigate to vendor/overlay and delete that folder
8) Flash gapps
9) Boot up
For root, AFTER you boot into the ROM, you can go back to recovery and install Magisk 16.2
If you like music like I do and want to make it better, see post #3 for instructions on installing ViPER4Android.
Instructional Video
I Apologize about video quality, but this will help get you an idea of the steps involved.
Steps are the same for Marlin and Sailfish. Use corresponding files for device.
https://youtu.be/mmxIrp7BiRk
Upgrading from earlier version of crDroid:
The only difference between clean flash as above and upgrading is you just wipe system & cache, leaving data. Everything else is the same. ***Remember to always clean flash before reporting problems. Clean flashing is always the best method of ROM install.
KNOWN ISSUES
None that stand out, If you find something that is consistently reproducible, do so and pull a log. Without logs, we cannot fix the bugs. Please report any that you run into, assuming you have tested on a clean install. :good:
NOTE ON SUBSTRATUM
We currently do not have substratum commits in the ROM because they have not updated their repos on git for Oreo. As such, if you want to use Substratum, you will be doing so by allowing root and using legacy mode. you -must- make sure whatever theme you try supports 8.1. Even some that say they support Oreo may only work with 8.0, not 8.1. I'd recommend the following:
Suggestion: whenever installing themes, remove your pin/password so you can get TWRP to mount data.
If you get in a FC/bootloop situation, boot to TWRP, mount data and remove the file /data/system/overlays.xml.
That should allow you to boot and uninstall the overlays without reinstalling anything.
Don't expect any support if you:
- are not running the included kernel
- have installed any mods such as Xposed!
- have modified system files
Thanks to:
- @razorloves - Without his device tree and kernel bringup to work from, crDroid for marlin & sailfish would not be possible at all. Apart from the ROM development itself (for which @neobuddy89 bears the largest burden, in addition to the great developers of LineageOS itself), credit for this ROM being able to even build goes to razorloves.

- LineageOS
- SlimRoms
- AOSPA (Paranoid Android)

- Many others... (if you're feeling upset being out of the thanks list just send a PM )

I already said it in my post above, but feel it needs repeating. HUGE thanks to @razorloves , without whose marlin bring-up this ROM would still not be built.
Also thanks to @almightysiman for confirming the ROM functions on sailfish.
Side note: You won't find BETA2 for sailfish. I skipped it so sailfish & marlin were on the same version number.

*** NOTE - We cannot actively support audio (or any other) mods. I'm posting this because it works for me and I use it personally. This is not supported by our ROM team. Only the ROM / vendor / gapps and nothing else is supported by the crDroid development team. ***
If you like music as much as I do and prefer to use Viper4Android, install it as follows:
0) This requires Magisk; install Magisk 15.x (whatever is most recent)
1) Using a root explorer (I prefer FX File Explorer), navigate to /system/system/priv-app/AudioFX and rename AudioFX.apk to AudioFX.BAK. Reboot.
2) Install three Magisk modules:
a) Magisk SELinux Permissive Script (Get it here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/module-magisk-selinux-permissive-script-t3577549)
b) Busybox for Android NDK v1.27.2 by osm0sis (Get it from Magisk downloads in the Magisk app)
c) ViPER4Android FX v2.8 by ahrion, zackptg5 (Also from Magisk downloads)
3) Reboot.
4) Enjoy your better music!

Awesome! :fingers-crossed:

Does this rom have always on display? Didn't see it in the features list

Thanks to all involved who had a part in creating this ROM...

Sorry to be that guy but could someone briefly explain step 7a for me ? I've only flash one Rom so far on my pixel and it did not go smoothly to say the least...

You have to mount vendor (TWRP/Mount/Vendor, back), then go to Advanced / file manager/ navigate to /vendor/overlay. Choose delete, swipe right.

Gotta say, this is, so far, the perfect flashing experience in Oreo ROMs. I had no force-closes at setup, and no issues with the flashing process. So far, it has been great. Gonna use it for a few days, but as of now, this looks like my daily driver. Thanks again for this!

Are GAPPS required to avoid problems? FC's bootloops etc. Just wondering cause I don't run gapps anymore and know that some of our oreo roms need GAPPS to function properly

Did you delete the overlay folder from vendor?
The dark theme auto switcher was disabled by our Dev. It was causing issues. I'm not surprised it didn't switch for you, but definitely am surprised it was enabled at all.

ROM in early development stage, released just for pie preview. needs testing

Awesome! Thanks for this!
Edit: Is it recommended to be on August or September build?

Sweet! Want to give this a shot, but I am a bit unsure how to flash gapps with it. I searched the other build's forum, and couldn't see on it either. Do I flash build, boot, then flash gapps, like on other A/B devices? Or do I just flash gapps at ROM installation?

Is TWRP built in?

Does this use an EAS kernel?

So I attempted to flash, but I am getting the error stating I am using an incorrect version gapps. States I am running 8.1, not 9. Anyone else have any ideas?
EDIT: I was able to modify the installer sh to force it to install, but every copy of gapps prompts and states there is not enough space in the system partition.

Have you tried installing the smallest gapps package? I had this same issue on another device.

Gapps screws up sometimes. Try remounting system and vendor while in twrp, reboot recovery then try flashing gapps again. I bet it works.

How are you guys getting touch to work in twrp...are you using the augest build to start?

I just flash the hyp.mbn from August before booting to recovery, then after installing whatever, go back to bootloader and flash the sept hyp.mbn.. just that file is all u need. Just be sure to reflash the current hyp file or any build based on sept wont work and vice versa.

flashed the 0930 build, bluetooth is broken.
Display setting - Full screen apps is in there, but i open or close the option, it seems doesn't work.. (i test it in my games
The screen became rounded corners, can this be a option for users? or it can be off by default?
some settings seems are not ready for pie, such as privacy guard, expanded desktop...

I already removed rounded corners in the upcoming build. Also it's stated in second post that it's early development stage, so don't expect everything to work properly. It's still experimental and we don't even have official lineage sources for mata. So thanks to @KuranKaname for his work
That full screen apps feature is lineage stuff. I already did what I could to add it on mata. From the comments on gerrit we can read:
I don't have an exact example app in mind but >=O apps can still manually limit maxAspectRatio to lower values like 1.86 or 2.1 (which could be obsolete for future long long screens). (It is not you are >= O so you are good with long screens)

i) <O apps that previously needed the max aspect ratio setting to 2.1 to work in full screen. eg https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.telltalegames.batman200
ii) <O apps that were worked in full screen when max aspect was set to 0. eg https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dotemu.rtype

LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 10 (Q), which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.
LineageOS is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. You will need to provide your own Google Applications package (gapps). LineageOS does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.
Base source code is available in the LineageOS Github repo. And if you would like to contribute to the project, please visit our Gerrit Code Review.
Working:
AOD
Audio
Boot
Bluetooth
Camera
Display
Flash
FOD
GPS
Hotspot
Quick charge (almost 30W)
RIL
SafteyNet gets bypassed without using magisk
Selinux is strict (not permissive)
Sensors
Video Playback
Widevine L1 (for example 1080p Netflix)
Wifi
Wifi Display
Bugs so far:
AOD has a unlock issue (blackscreen) if AntiFlicker is enabled
If you find one take a logcat when the error occurs. If you don't know how to take a logcat, take a look here. Then write me a PM. Also please tell me if you have gapps/magisk installed, which version and how to reproduce the bug.

Sorry, my mistake, appologies to you. Camera doing shots in big size. But not pure stable (sometimes freeze or force closed when switch mods), but other things is fully right in ROM, good job. (I have strange problem, after flash and boot, connect with PC good and transfer working, but after some minutes, if i remove all from backup, connect with PC don´t work, but it is which some my apk or settings, I don´t know...)

upgraded from rr to this rom. works good. testting Gcam from burial v8. for me works nice.

What manifest file should I use to build this from source?

Will this ever become a supported device?

Can anyone recommend gapps with google setup wizard?
NikiGapps has issues with google setup at first boot.
Nevermind, that's sorted.

Nice work. Waiting for Pixel Experience android 11, lineage os is just too plain for me

Very smooth and fluid rom, kudos to the dev.
Only thing fingerprint, which isn't as accurate most of the time.
Thanks for the great work

How is now your experience with Gcam? Is still fully working without freezing and closing after switch between lenses?
And how resolutions of pictures and size? Working with full potential of original lenses or pictures are smaller and not so good?
I try this ROM only few minutes and i have a problem with freezing and closing (Burial, i think) and quality looking not so good like with same GCam on miui ROM? But maybe I am wrong.
I want clear android very much for this device, thanks developers, but MiNote10 is photo mobile, so need fully working camera.
Thanks for your experience.

Could've used the OSS vendors from Arrow, they're perfect for the deep sleep issues that almost all other ROMs have.

Perro

Hello,
Glad to find crDroid on my Note 10 pro (after having it on my Note5 pro and on my Note 8T, both in my kids' hands now).
Small additional information for beginners:
1) after having formatted the data (and answered "yes"), it is necessary to reboot on the Recovery before installing crDroid
2) If you come from "Arrow" ROM, you can't directly install crDroid. Indeed, Arrow OS changes things in the "vendor" partition, while the installation of cdDroid doesn't seem to affect this partition. I tried to switch directly from Arrow to crDroid, but the phone was rebooting on Recovery. The best is to flash MIUI. Then (no need to start on it) you can flash crDroid.
3) Finally, I have already had several issues after updates crDroid on my other phones (dirty flash), because of the encryption. Now, to protect from problems, I deactivate the encryption (especially with the Note 10 pro, TWRP seems to be still in beta). Usually, to turn off encryption, I would use #dfe. But it doesn't work in this case. So, I recommend that you use "rmcrypt.zip" found in the "Arrow" forum, and which I attach to you in this post.
Important note: If you are using "mcrypt.zip" to turn off encryption, turn off OTA updates. You have to update manually, because you have to relaunch mcrypt after each system update.
Otherwise, the ROM seems to work pretty well. With the exception of the camera: as with other ROMs: selfies are limited to 4 Mpixs (even with GCam).
Enjoy
Manu D.

hmm, both of my banking apps working just fine using magisk hide & hide and rename magisk manager app, so not sure why it's not working for you...
check if your device passes safetynet test either with or without magisk, selinux should be enforcing

All in all, love it! Thank you!
Two issues that I found:
Sound is a bit distorted in comparison with Arrow OS or stock.
Brightness lives its own life, needs constant tweaking.

Good sense of humor! Yes, the brightness issue raises its head in all ROMs like birth pangs in a baby.
I'm waiting with bated breath for the OSS version to come up next month before I migrate from Arrow. Don't want to keep backing.restoring my data every other day.

There's issue with ro.debuggable which will get fixed in my next official build, for now you can flash this magisk module - https://github.com/kdrag0n/safetynet-fix/releases

Decided to give another try. Brightness is not that terrible this time.
Stumbled upon non-working Android Auto.
This is a common LOS problem according to the net and might be caused by gapps.

Hello,
I experimented a big issue.
I was under crDroid 7.7 with rmcrypt.zip to be sure to have no problem with encryption.
I tryed to update manually to version 7.8 (with the same rmcrypt.zip) and the system stayed frozzen at boot on the colored eye (colors loop again and again for hours).
After this bad experience, I tryed again to update without rmcrypt.zip : same result.
But after that, my data was unaccessible. The only solution was to format and came back to v7.7. It was impossible to install v 7.8 :-(
Of course, I need to reinstall and setup all my apps. Was it a problem with gapps and my uncrypted system ?
So, is it possible to have a vanilla version of v7.8 ?
Thanks by advanced,
Manu D.

latest CrDroid 7.8 is OSS vendor based, while changing vendors MIUI -> OSS clean flash is mandatory, for decryption you should use DFE, check below...
[SCRIPT][FLASHABLE] Encryption disablers for Redmi Note 10 Pro (MIUI vendor, OSS vendor) [SWEET]
So, here is a little script, which I modified to work on Redmi Note 10 Pro (tested and working on sweet). I didn't create this, only modified it, so all credits goes to ghostrider_reborn. Edit: found another working encryption disabler...

Thank you very much, this information is important to know. I will try again with a clean flash.
NB : but even with this solution, is it possible to have a vanilla version without gapps ?
Thanks by advance... Sincerely,

around a week ago the dev asked on telegram if we want vanilla version and when people said yes, he said "OMK will post after 2 hours" (whatever that means), but so far nothing like vanilla hadn't been released

CrDroid 7.8

Crdroid 7.6 have installed and tested. It is okay. System is bug free and I am very happy. Thank You

Hi snekkill,
Thanks for this refreshing rom! I never thought having A11 on my device
I just noticed one thing regarding the notification led : the message led does not work although it is active in the settings. On the other hand, the call led works well, strange
Does this also happen on your side?
(just to mention I installed nikgapps basic with the rom)
Thanks a lot for your nice work

What gapps do you recommend with the rom?

And why then 2 links? Of course, without mobile data, it will not work without accurate geo-positioning.

I am sorry, but I do not understand your "2 links" comment. What links are you referring to?
I did not realize that mobile data was a necessary aspect to GPS positioning. Also I did not install any GAPPS because I wanted to try it like that first but it seems I will have to do so.
I am not an android specialist so these aspects are new for me. Thank you for your patience.

Hi Snekkill, thanks for the hard work.
Tried this and so far I like it. Stable and no bugs so far for me. Only thing is ringtone volume is too low for me, is there anyway to increase it? I've tried editing mixer_paths but still no effect, gonna try viper4android next...

Hi. Using Xiaomi parts

Hi! Your ROM is very impressive. Please forgive my level of knowledge. How to install magisk? I don't find boot.img in this ZIP file. Thank you!

What kernel do you use for this rom guys? For better performance and battery?

Hello?? Any kernel anyone?
