KatKiss ROM
MarshMallow 6.0.1 ReleaseAsus TF701
This rom is an aosp based rom with my own additions on top of it.
The main motto of the rom being Kiss. Even though the Meerkat mascot could give you a kiss, it stands for Keeps it Sweet and Simple
Which means that just like the other K.A.T stuff, the rom's main goal is efficiency, speed/responsiveness,
while not adding bloated features that will slow things down
DOWNLOADS:
Latest Rom Version: KatKiss-6.0_TF701T_033.zip | Mirror
Gapps: OpenGapps ARM 6.0 Pico
(if you want Now on Tap use the nano version, and activate Now on Tap from google now settings)
Latest SuperSU: SuperSU stable
Install Instructions:
Backup everything !
Boot into the recovery
The first time or everytime you have an issue when dirty flashing (Especially when changing android major versions):
[*] do a full wipe, if you have issues make sure that you format /data (format is different than wipe)
Warning: formatting will remove what is stored in your internal storage, so store the rom /gapps/supersu zips onto an external storage (microSD, SD card..) or make sure you know how to push them back through adb.
Note that sometime with TWRP the partition might get corrupted after format, so you might need to format to ext3 then ext4 again, and/or reflash the rom if it fails to flash the 1st time
Then everytime (even when "dirty flashing") do the following steps:
Flash the rom
Flash the SuperSU zip
[*]Flash gapps
Wipe cache/dalvik
Reboot

ROM OS Version: 6.0.x Marshmallow
ROM Kernel: Linux 3.4.x
Based On: AOSP
Version Information
Status: Stable

Tips
First Install
Make sure you do a format /data the first time you install the rom
(backup your internal storage first if you want to keep something)
The first boot after a rom flash can take a few minutes as ART is slower than dalvik to optimize the applications, but is faster after the 1st time.
(First boot takes ~4-5 minutes without gapps and 10+ minutes with gapps)
Also keep in mind that after a fresh install, it might take a bit of time to get up to full speed as media scanner & google are checking/scanning and restoring stuff.
Wallpaper Modes
Different Wallpaper modes have been added in Settings => Display
** Normal (regular android mode)
** Disable System Wallpaper rendering (set as default)
** Disable Wallpaper service
2nd setting will prevent the wallpaper being rendered by the system making things faster and also freeing resources
That's the recommended setting you want to use if you are using a launcher that has internal wallpaper rendering
The Default included Launcher3 has internal rendering
For Nova: Go to its Settings => Desktop => Wallpaper Scrolling => Force, then set a wallpaper.
(You will see a black wallpaper if you're not using a launcher that can do internal rendering, If wallpaper is important and that you want to keep your current launcher, then switch back to the 1st setting)
Graphic artifacts
Video thumbnails shows green for certain type of videos
Bluetooth audio devices
For bluetooth audio devices that have "phone audio" capability you need to uncheck the box in the bluetooth device settings.
Hardware keyboard layouts
More languages have been added in the default asusec keyboard
Set the keyboard layout through Settings => Language & Input => asusec => setup keyboard layouts
These also allow live switching without reboot with ctrl + space
Global Key Override/Shorcut Mecanism
Available in Settings => Dock => Add Key Override Actions
This will allow you not only to redefine function keys assignment, and other special keys actions,
but you'll also be able to assign global macro actions / app launch to any key + Meta key combination (shift Left or Right , ctrl..)
You can also add multiple actions to one key combination, simply click again on the "+" button for the same key combination.
For example if you want to assign to one key combination a list of action to run before going to bed for example, like: turn wifi off, Bluetooth off, mute sound, and turn screen off, you can do that
Note that starting multiple applications with one key is kinda a miss and hit for the moment due to some mecanism in android that seems to prevent applications to start too close to each others.
Multiwindow
Multiwindow allows you to split the screen in 2, 3 or 4 panes
you can switch an app back and forth between multiwindow mode and regular mode while it's running
NavBar:
- To switch between full screen and split View you can use the
NavBar Buttons
The app that currently has the focus (or the latest used app if you're on the Desktop) will be used for the main pane (left and/or top depending on the mode and rotation)
And it will lay the remaining most recently used apps in the rest of the available 1-2-3 panes depending on the icon you click
- If you press a multiwindow icon again when in splitview mode, it'll bring the focused app back to fullscreen mode.
- To swap the 2 latest focused apps location / pane , long press on the
NavBar Button
- To change focus simply Tap on the app or use the
NavBar Button
That button can also be used in non multiwindow mode to switch quickly between the 2 most recent apps.
Global Actions:
Actions to switch the app between fullscreen / splitview 2-3-4 panes and switch between the 2 most recent apps have been added
so you can bind them to a key / key combination with the Global KeyOverride or long press on navbar button too.
Note: Most apps works ok in splitview mode, but some of them might crash or not refresh correctly sometime.
To manually position an app in one of the pane:
For the moment either reorder your apps before clicking on an auto mode icon,
or you can also activate the default Marshmallow Multiwindow mode to get extra icons to positions an app in a specific pane (activate it in developer options )
Then position the apps with the icons from the Recents screen. (default MM recents icons are for 2 or 4 panes)

TF701 version #030b
New rom version available: KatKiss-6.0_TF701T_030b.zip
Let's get this baby rolling
I also got Nougat 7.1 booting but there are still some issues with surfaceflinger crashing, I hope I can fix that at some point too, so that we can move from MM
But for the moment enjoy some Marshmallow
Make sure you read fully the 1st and 2nd post
Especially the install instructions, and what's not working currently.
Also keep in mind that it's still the first version, so things might need a bit of polishing and there's still lots of space for improvements
So far I'd say that it's fully stable and can be used as a daily driver (pending that you don't need one of the currently not working feature of course)
But I've been using it for the past few days with no issues with what I use here.
Note that as mentioned in post #2 there is some kind of graphic artifact / corruption on the google initial setup "enter your login" screen.
I'm not sure what's causing it yet, maybe something with google webview / rom optimizations, it seems to be only localized in that screen, so simply ignore it for moment.
Changelog:
- First TF701T version
- Update to November Marshmallow release
WiFi doesn't work for me. The list of Networks is empty. Change of regulatory Domain doesn't help.

Shouldn't be related to regulatory domain then
Did you format /data before flashing the rom ?
EDIT: okie, found the problem, use version 030b below:
New rom version available: KatKiss-6.0_TF701T_030b.zip
Any chance you can post a changelog for the not working areas of new ROM uploads. Bluetooth & rotate are deal breakers for me right now, but I do fancy keeping an eye on the thread for when you get them sorted.

And I also post the changelog specific to one version when I make it available
I got WiFi connection. Great!
Thanks a lot. You are bringing new life to my beloved tablet.
Thank you so much to support our Tablet with your wonderful Rom. I am just waiting for fix the Bluetooth and Autorotation Problem and then I will give your rom a try. Thank you
Ooh, yes, thank you for making the effort to modernise our dying device! I want to try this right now, but I use Bluetooth audio quite often. I am sure you will be able to sort it out. Can't wait to try it.
Just a quick question - what recovery are you using for flashing this ROM? AFAIK the KANG TWRP is the latest one but it has some issues (for me) with wiping caches and sometimes even /system. It can flash a MM ROM no problems, right?

Yes I'm using KANG TWRP,
would be good to have f2fs support at some point, I've added it in katkernel but we'd need the recovery to support it too
should help even further the perfs
About bluetooth I've fixed it .. mostly besides audio
Well it's not the bluetooth that is the issue now but the audio hal crashing after pairing to a device
I only have one speaker to test with though, not sure if it's general to all bt audio devices or not.
But at least now bluetooth HID devices (keyboards..) & tethering are working
Now, this might be a silly question, but what happens when you try to play audio from the TF701T to your Bluetooth speaker? Does it start lagging, crashing, and not playing any sound? Because if so, I think I might know how to fix it.
I have the issue on CM12.1 and I think people have it on other CM-based and perhaps all custom ROMs. I fixed it by connecting my BT speaker to the tablet and then turning off Phone audio from the device's settings in the Bluetooth menu. I have no idea how it works and why it is happening, I just "felt" I should do it (lol), but the moment I turned that off the tablet stopped panicking while connected to a speaker and started playing music through it with no problems whatsoever. Of course, you probably can't use any app that is on the Phone channel, but I've never used it anyway. I could be wrong about this, I'm not a dev at all, but could you be facing the same issue that no one has fixed yet (I believe?)? If not, then I hope you can find a solution to whatever the problem is . Maybe I can even use a BT device for calls.

Indeed, thanks for the tip
unchecking phone audio on the device makes bluetooth audio work fine

Really glad I could help! I'm curious, though, what could be causing this strange problem? Something with the ASUS kernel and non-ASUS libs (or whatever it could be, I am a huge layman )? A conflict between hardware and software?
Anyhow, this ROM looks amazing, after you release the next version with fixed autorotation I am going to install this. Starting to backup all my old stuff right now .

once the bt device is registered it tries to route through the audio hal libs , it seems one of the libs cannot handle that type of stream and crashes.
That's the problem with having very old HAL blobs
need to torture them and workaround all they cannot handle.
Anyhow, this ROM looks amazing, after you release the next version with fixed autorotation I am going to install this. Starting to backup all my old stuff right now .

yeah autorotation and DRM fixed in the next version

[ROM] iHackers [MIUI v5], a ROM for the Samsung Galaxy S3 I9300
Contributors
iHackers, Sumedha Kapoor
ROM OS Version: 4.1.x Jelly Bean
ROM Kernel: Linux 3.0.x
Version Information
Status: Testing
Current Beta Version: v1.4
Beta Release Date: 2013-11-8
Created 2013-10-16
Last Updated 2013-12-14
Version Details:
Aroma Version:
Its the Big Daddy of all the other versions and the most ideal version to install for a person who knows what he is doing. It contains almost everything MIUI has to provide along with all the other Modifications, Tweaks, Fixes, Addons, Applications, Kernels, Recoveries, Mods, Bootanimations, Glass Apps, Google Apps, Bloatware Removal Script etc. The main thing that makes the Aroma Version perfect is that everything in the Installer is optional for the user to install, He/She can either install everything or nothing for a clean install. It gives you complete freedom to configure the ROM and your Device exactly the way you like.
Stripped Version:
Stripped Version should be chosen by those who simply don't want to download the whole Aroma Package everytime a new version is released either because they have low download bandwidth or they are using Addons Pack to get the missing features from the Aroma Version. The Stripped Version contains All the Modifications, Tweaks, Bootanimations, Fixes but one Kernel and No Glass Apps or other Google Apps. It does not have any undervolting script pre installed but all the Bloatware is already removed from it. Its simply the Aroma Version without all the optional stuff in it. If someone wants to install something from the Aroma Version He/She should download the Addons Pack and if someone wants any of the deleted apps that were deleted while the Bloatware Removal, He/She can get them from the Official Port or from Aroma Version or from any of the previous releases that he has already downloaded and can extract the apps from.
Minimal Version:
Minimal Version is a new version which has been specially optimized keeping the following things in consideration:
Lowest Possible Size
Battery Friendly
More and More Free RAM
All the Possible Bloatware Removed
No Additional Apps (Except the Most Required ones)
Optimized for best Performance, Speed and Smoothness
Etc ++
The Minimal Version contains All the Modifications, Tweaks, Fixes but Only one Kernel and Bootanimation, No Glass Apps and No Google Apps either. It does not have any undervolting script pre installed but all the Bloatware is already removed from it. If someone wants to install something from the Aroma Version He/She should download the Addons Pack and if someone wants any of the deleted apps that were deleted while the Bloatware Removal, He/She can get them from the Official Port or from Aroma Version.
This Version is Ideal for those who like a very very clean Install and like to customize and add everything exactly What and How they want. The only things left out in the Minimal Version are the Core Apps without which you would loose the entire feel of MIUI and without them there would be no pleasure in installing it.
Addons Pack:
The Addons Pack has everything in the Aroma Version except the ROM itself. It is being provided for Stripped, Minimal and Official Versions because they do not have anything from Aroma Version included in them. So, In case if someone wants to install something from Aroma Version, He/She should use the Addons Pack and as its based on Aroma to, so naturally He/She will have all the options with what to install and what not. This Pack will not only work with my ROM, or any other MIUI ROM alone, it will work with all other ROMs too (Ofcourse, The ones that support the Included Kernels).

English (MarkHUK & iBotPeaches)
Chinese (Xiaomi)
Polish (Acid)
Russian (KDev Group)

In Case You Face Brightness Issues, use Disable Auto Brightness or Velis AutoBrightness App.
In Case You are Unable to Install the ROM, Whether the Aroma Installer finishes in a flash back, or It does not start at all or Unable to Mount System or Data, Follow these Steps: Verify the MD5 Hash of your file with the one listed on the Version's Download Page and in case it does not match, Download a New File of your Desired Version. Then Copy it to External SD Card, Flash Philz Recovery and Flash the ROM using that recovery.
If Anyone Have Problems With WIFI Region Code, Download WifiManager, Install it and Give it Root Permissions.

Sure, Whenever you feel like it. Its late here too. I am always hungry for a detailed review. This is the initial release, So, I did not go for any big changes in this release. I don't own an Galaxy S III but lot of users have been requesting me for very long to make this for their device. I developed this ROM originally for Xperia S, I just added some of the stuff from that ROM and made this build. Lets see how everything works out. I will dive in for bigger changes and improvements once I get some detailed reviews/reports on, Whats working and whats not, What should be Added / Improved / Removed, What are the major issues associated with this ROM and Detailed Reports on Performance, Speed, Smoothness, Responsiveness, Fluidity and Overall Quality. So, Just let me know whenever you can enlighten me with these things.
i was waiting for this rom

Nice ROM. Any chance to have the option to block ringer volume increase/decrease with the hardware volume buttons? Most people I know only really use the volume buttons for media volume anyway. The Galaxy S3 is notorious for bumping the volume buttons when pressing the power button on the opposite side. Its a great feature with the 4.3 ROM's, saves you from silent mode being deactivated by accident. I much prefer 4.1.2 ROM, though, due to better stability with my Bluetooth ERA headset. I will use this ROM and let you know how it fairs. Good job!
What about android version and based build ROM?

I am glad that you feel this way. I am sure users will love this ROM. This is only an initial beta release though, You will bigger and better improvements in the coming releases when I am well informed with what users exactly want their ROM to be like. So, Whenever you install the ROM, take it to roughest and longest test drive and let me know what you feel about it and what can be done to make it even better.

Its based upon JB 4.1.1 and I chose that because some users requested me to as they didn't want to loose the features from the Stock ROM and break a few features like FM Radio (Which is usually the case in CM based ROMs). Well, this is the initial release, I will go on with porting MIUI on JB 4.1.2 or maybe JB 4.2.2 when a stable stock build is available later on. If you guys want me to make another CM based ROM then let me know. Stock Based or CM Based its your choice, I am good with both, Its upto you guys to choose which one you want.

It will be very easy to port that feature on a CM based ROM, I will see if it could be done as easily in this one too. Sure, Give it a try and let me know what you feel. Great suggestion by the way. Let me know if you have more.

Had a bit of trouble getting it to download but now that I'm trying to install it's getting stuck on 0.0% install saying to be patient. Could my download be the problem or is it the installer? Full SD wipe and format. Phone getting hot after 15 mins of no progress. Tried 3 times no success.

no wipe needed? ( I`am on miuiandroid)
I have tested a couple of MIUI ROMS but this one is the best by far.
The only deal breaker for me is that it sadly lacks the Swedish language.
The ROM is fluently without the lag when scrolling through home screens that many of MIUI roms suffer from.
Phone settings are snappy and quick.
The Iphone7 lock screen is a bit buggy in my opinion, it is hard to slide it up and then get rid of it
It would be great if this ROM could be based on Sammy stock so that we could get some of the Sammy features.
Tnx !! job well done !

Sir if you can make the other release based on stock 4.1.2 or 4.2.2 Rom then it would be better & we will get all stock features & apps compatibility without any problem. But on cm base most features are missing & incompatible.
i love new development project and as a matter of fact sir i will be making a video on all the features with this rom and i will post the link very soon...give me 5 days time and hopefully i shall come up with a good video for your rom....downloading now btw
Have a great day sir
Hello,
if you make a 4.3 CM based ROM, i will test it, i don't need fm radio.
Thanks for your work

To God be the glory, my AOKP NOUGAT project finally works!
Greetings from Alaska! I looked around for AOKP 7.1.2 for my new to me T-Mobile H811, and I couldn't find one, so I built one instead. I have been developing roms for a while on the Samsung Galaxy S4, S5, and Note Edge, and thought I'd try a non-Samsung phone. My work is free for you to use, take, edit, and implement any way you see fit. I hope you enjoy using it as much as I enjoyed making it! Feel free to leave comments in this thread, I don't mind a little background chatter or friendly discussion!
This is not a dirty unicorn. This is the original unicorn, the AOKP. Now made out of Nougat! That's right, all of the AOKP stuff you love, plus LineageOS, plus a built in side bar, and more! All wrapped up into one! With tons of settings from status bar tweaks to button remaps, it's all here and ready to rumble!

**** This is an UNOFFICIAL ROM. Install at your own risk! ****
You must perform an oem unlock before using this rom!
Downloads :
Download:
https://www.mediafire.com/folder/fktizc6ieye4o/nougat
Gapps link:
http://opengapps.org/
-Which I personally tested Arm64 7.1 Pico.
The AKLU kernel:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-g4/development/kernel-nougat-kernels-t3622811
Be sure to follow these installation steps very carefully, as they may be different then what you are used to.
Installation instructions:
-Download ROM and gapps, and put them on your phone or external storage.
-Reboot into recovery mode - TWRP (I personally installed this using 2.8.7.0, but newer ones should work too!)
-Backup what you had. (Just to be safe.)
-Wipe. (I personally wipe everything prior to flashing new roms, but at least do the basic wipe.)
-Install Rom.
-Install Gapps. - Optional
-Reboot to system and enjoy!
-- Or, after rebooting to system, go back to TWRP and install the AKLU kernel!
I do not recommend installing superSU on this ROM! SU permission is already built in, and superSU has been causing problems with the rom.
What works :
Code:
+ Phone calls/receiving
+ Data 2g/3g/LTE
+ Bluetooth
+ WiFi
+ MTP
+ Split screen
etc....
What doesn't :
Code:
- I have not found any big errors, fault crashes, or problems yet. Please let me know if you find an issue! (There must be some!)
This AOKP N ROM was built for the H811, the T-Mobile LG G4. I have not tried this on any other device, but you are welcome to try it AT YOUR OWN RISK. You may need to edit the META-INF updater script to accomplish this. It MAY flash on H815 as is, as I added a line for that in the build. Please chime in if it worked on your device!
Code:
Disclaimer: AOKP is not responsible for any damages to your device.
All of my work is completely available for any who wish to use or modify it. I didn't make AOKP, the device trees, or vendor blobs. I simply used and edited existing material. A huge thanks should go to those who actually created this stuff.

Notes:
Just a spot for some field notes about the ROM.
Background:
The awesome background was provided by The Quiet Learner, you can see more of his work here:
https://qlfiles.net/
You can also change the background using SWAGGER, to choose from several amazing AOKP backgrounds. Just long press the background as usual, and choose SWAGGER.
Multi-Window:
Open the app you want on top, then long press the recent button, then select the app you want on the bottom. Slide the slider up or down to choose full screen for the top or bottom app. Note: if in multi-window mode, pressing home goes to the home screen, but opening an app causes multi-window mode again with the last app you had open and the new app you chose.
OmniSwitcher:
You must enable OmniSwitcher to use it. There are choices for horizontal or vertical layouts, as well as the "handle" size and color. You can also enable the "menu" button, which may come in handy due to the long press of the recent button being used for multi-window.
excellent mate!
Few questions...
have you tried Llama Kernel for it?
Which theme engine works? (oms, legacy, etc...)
Oo... and first!

I have not tried the lama kernel, I always make my own, I am working on one now, but if you try it, please let me know how it goes.
As for themes, this is 100% substratum compliant.

Another quick question.. How do you get Magisk to work on this ROM? I have tried various methods. Root works fine, but Safetynet has issues.

So...
Just so you are aware, safetynet does not pass with completely stock KDZ ok?
Secondly, even Magisk will not pass safetynet as of yet, he states it's getting worked on tho
https://www.xda-developers.com/magisk-developer-assures-next-magisk-beta-will-pass-safetynet-again/
Thirdly, the OP shows you that SU is built-in, so you woould need to figure out a way to remove it from the ROM (and probably kernel) first, once you do that, you can probably go and install Magisk.
Hope this helps mate, and good luck.

giving this a test drive with your kernel, so far so very good liking this much more than slim, many more settings and things to play around with. using open camera, so far not missing stock camera too much but im sure i will eventually, its the reason i got the G4 in the first place, but this is some good stuff, thanks so much for the builds, keep them coming!!

Yes AOKP is very feature rich, sort of the antithesis (if that is the right word) of SlimRoms. However it is a bit heavier (space wise), and uses a few more resources. But the G4 seems quite capable at handling it.
These two are very different schools of thought....
AOKP:
Provide every thing you need, and make everything customizable. Don't try to hide root, and offer every amenity. Want for nothing!
SlimRoms:
Give them the very basics, offer a few core features and let them build their app base with the things they truly want. Simplicity at it's finest. Speed through lightness!
I think both have a place. Just like ice cream, everybody likes their favorite flavor. In glad you like the rom!

Just a quick oddity to report, this ROM will not detect my 5ghz wifi, only the 2.4. Not an issue on other ROMs I've tried, or stock.

Usraek,
Thanks for the kind words! I can't take all of the credit though, the AOKP team did all the hard work! Not to mention the dozen or so that worked on device trees and vendor blobs, to which I only edited and slightly modified for this purpose.
Thanks for the heads up on the 5ghz WiFi. I am downloading some source right now and plan to release an update with June's security patches. When I do, I will test the WiFi.
It is working great on my slim ROMs build, so I will have to review it thoroughly if it doesn't work on AOKP.

Well, I can still give you credit for bringing these ROMs here! I just got my H811 that is flashable yesterday, after my H812 that was bootloader locked up and bootlooped. So I'll be honest, the 5ghz *may* work, I'm almost certain it doesn't, but I've flashed like a dozen ROMs to try today so I may have got something mixed up... lol

No problem! But it may still be an issue. Perhaps a channel problem? As you know there is channel 1 through 11, perhaps not all channels are working?

Praise God! Another update!
There is a new download in the OP! Just a sync with AOKP for security patches through June! There is also a new web browser that you can try!
Just an FYI, I have changed the download link to a folder containing the rom(s), its just a little easier, so after an upload I do not have to update the links, as the folder will not change, just the rom in it.
I did test the WiFi, and the 5ghz is working great here.
Enjoy and Happy Independence Day and weekend to my fellow Americans!

I forgot to mention that I also changed the boot animation to the old "lightning" AOKP boot animation.
If you want the new "pony-gear" animation, you can grab it here in the "Official AOKP" folder:
https://www.mediafire.com/folder/o172vzm25q6n3/bootanimations
Or you can poke around the other animations and use any of those if you like them. Checkmate was one of my favorites, although I made these a while back for older phones, so they may be a little "fast" and/or "small" on your phone now.
thank you so much for this rom dev! I cannot live without fling and omniswitch and have been on DU since their last update. it's worlds better than what i was running before. i cannot express how thankful I am for this rom!
can I ask for a couple of feature requests? would be awesome to have the option for some app shortcuts on the lockscreen and the ability to customize the bottom left and right unlock-to-apps. I can totally live without them but just want a little more icing on the cake. to me, those two features are the only thing from a perfect rom for me.

To God be the glory, my Slim7 Nougat project finally works on the LG G4!
This is a very slimmed down version of Android Nougat, almost a "vanilla" experience with a few tasteful perks! By design, this ROM comes without root for those who wish to have a "pure" version without the entanglements that come with root, but it can also be easily rooted by using chainfire's SuperSU (see below for instructions and downloads). In it's default form, it is perfect for those banking apps, workplaces, and games that require you to have a phone without root. No need for tricks or hacks, all while having the latest and greatest Android on your phone.
Also, this unrooted ROM is great if you use a special SU, like a custom SuperSU, Magisk, etc. I don't support those directly, but in this ROM, you don't have to remove root so you can add those. DO SO AT YOUR OWN RISK!
**** This is an UNOFFICIAL ROM. Install at your own risk! ****
This SlimRoms Nougat ROM was built for the H811 LG G4 T-Mobile variant using modified LineageOS trees. I have not tried this on any other device, but you are welcome to try it AT YOUR OWN RISK. The updater script may need to be edited. I did add a line for the H815, so that may work. Chime in if it worked on your device.
A huge thanks to the SlimRoms Project team!
Disclaimer: SlimRoms is not responsible for any damages to your device.
All of my work is completely available for any who wish to use or modify it. I didn't make SlimRoms, the device trees, or vendor blobs. I simply used and edited existing material. A huge thanks should go to those who actually created this stuff.

Gapps link:
http://opengapps.org/
-Which I personally only tested Pico. Be sure to choose "Arm64" and "7.1".
The AKLU kernel:
DOWNLOADING THE AKLU KERNEL IS NO LONGER REQUIRED, IT IS BUILT INTO THE ROM.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-g4/development/kernel-nougat-kernels-t3622811
Be sure to only choose the SLIM 7 version.
Be sure to follow these installation steps very carefully, as they may be different then what you are used to.
!!!FIRST BOOT TAKES LONGER THAN 5 EARTH MINUTES TO COMPLETE!!!
!!!IF YOU FLASH SUPERSU, IT WILL REBOOT SEVERAL TIMES DURING INSTALL, THAT IS OKAY!!!
!!!PLEASE FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY, AS THEY MAY BE DIFFERENT THEN WHAT YOU ARE USED TO!!!
Installation instructions ( TO BE NON-ROOTED ) :

Thanks. The Substratum theme engine works if you root the ROM.
Edit:
Bummer, the Substratum is broken in this build. I'll try to get that going again....
Make sure you set your default ringtone and notification sound. I forgot to give it a default. You only have to choose a ring tone and notification sound once.

It looks like there are a lot of good ROMs in the LG G4 section for H815/H811, I don't want to build "over" what people already have going. That being said, I am open to suggestion, but can't promise anything. Do you have a ROM request?

Thanks guys! Kind words are always welcome!
I have started work on the AKLU kernel:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-g4/development/kernel-nougat-kernels-t3622811
It is very basic right now, but I plan to add more as time goes on. No promises, but my other AKLU kernels typically feature: More governors, more i/o schedulers, FauxSound, voltage control (so you can set your own voltage, under or over), and light overclocking of the CPU and GPU. So be sure to check it out, and take a look as time goes on and I (hopefully) add more features!
cool, something new to try!! thanks for this!! i miss building slim when i had my nexus 5

thank you .. this means more things to try. and this also helps G4 as it looks like its getting dead.. in development. thank you for your time.. and sharing.. no request right now later..
An oddity that I've noticed on this and other Slim nougat ROMs:
Sometimes, when you use wave 2 wake, or press the power button to turn on the screen, the screen does not appear to come on. In reality it does, but the backlighting is not on, so the screen is too dark to see.
This is rare, but when it happens, I push the power button to turn off the screen, then push again to turn on, in which the screen is bright again.
I'll try to look at the settings to see where the disconnect is.

So far so good. Love me some Slim. Odd thing though, the nav buttons have a double tap feel to them like you actually tap it twice, lime a double feedback. Has anyone else notices that? Typing and other taps do not have that, just on the nav buttons

That is true, the nav bar does have a higher vibration / feedback setting than the keyboard. This is the default. I think the idea is to make you aware that you pressed the nav bar and not the keyboard.
Sometimes, while using the keyboard (I swipe to type on the default keyboard) I will get an odd double feedback vibration buzz that is stronger than normal. Have any of you had that?

Yes, currently USB debugging is on by default. You could turn it off of you are rooted by editing your build prop.
On:
persist.service.adb.enable=1 persist.service.debuggable=1 persist.sys.usb.config=mtp,adb
Off:
persist.service.adb.enable=0 persist.service.debuggable=0 persist.sys.usb.config=mtp
And rebooting the phone. Hopefully I'll get that fixed, and you can turn it on and of the normal way. I just have not had time to look at it yet.

Besides the GApps and maybe Root is everything ready for 8.X. The GApps will be updated to the Oreo Ones, once Linage is pushing first official Nightlies of 8.X.

Really? That's new... Is the Touch working correctly or is it screwed up? I will take a look on the AROMA Threads to see if that happened to someone else before. But could also be a TWRP Bug...

First impressions
Installed the light patch after wiping the system cache and dalvik. using a different tarp solved the issue regarding the flipped screen and the touch not working.
My few observations after 1 hour of usage :
1. The audio recording doesn't work on the phone( using any recorder), however the camera seems to be recording the sound. The Google voice assistant can't be setup as it can't hear the Ok Google.
2. The scroll cache seems to be a little laggy, maybe it needs some time to settle in.
3. Audio quality seems good, not sure if it's a Placebo effect.
4. The phone does warm up during charging, seems like it could be because of a fresh install. Without the light patch it was almost the same.
5: Google assistant doesnt work with the audio patch applied.

Thanks for Your Feedback. Well I think all lags and warmups will be gone after some Minutes (There are a lot of Progresses running in the Background on a clean start). Besides that are the Mic Problems known on some Devices. The Problem is caused by a lack of Fluence Audio Support. A well working (But Quality lowering) workaround is the Magisk Module called "Android Mic Fix" which does basically just disable Fluence Audio for Applications which are using the Loudspeaker besides the Mic (Calls, Google Assistant).
I would suggest to give it a try if You want to run the Patch anyways. And about the Audio Quality, there is for sure a plus in Quality. Lot of Qualcomm exclusive services besides the highest possible resampling can't be placebo. The Light Audio System (Including Sony Audio Enhancements UI) is also working as intended (Xloud, Clearphase, S-force). I haven't measurement methods available, but I'm using high Fidelity Audio Equipment to test the differences and My Hearing is good as it should be for a 24 Years old Guy. Trust in a Nerd lol
Just to share some Infos with You. Hope it wasn't to much!

I never used or worked with Zuk Devices, there is a chance that it will work on Stock, but I can't promise that. The Patch is made for 7.1.x & 8.x AOSP based Systems, Problems on Stock which aren't on AOSP happening will not be fixed...

Thanks for Your Feedback. Well I think all lags and warmups will be gone after some Minutes (There are a lot of Progresses running in the Background on a clean start). Besides that are the Mic Problems known on some Devices. The Problem is caused by a lack of Fluence Audio Support. A well working (But Quality lowering) workaround is the Magisk Module called "Android Mic Fix" which does basically just disable Fluence Audio for Applications which are using the Loudspeaker besides the Mic (Calls, Google Assistant).
I would suggest to give it a try if You want to run the Patch anyways. And about the Audio Quality, there is for sure a plus in Quality. Lot of Qualcomm exclusive services besides the highest possible resampling can't be placebo. The Light Audio System (Including Sony Audio Enhancements UI) is also working as intended (Xloud, Clearphase, S-force). I haven't measurement methods available, but I'm using high Fidelity Audio Equipment to test the differences and My Hearing is good as it should be for a 24 Years old Guy. Trust in a Nerd lol
Just to share some Infos with You. Hope it wasn't to much!

Thank you so much for this wonderful patch. I have installed the mic fix as well, the audio recording works well. Would there be any app for the configuration of Light Audio System, like changing the equalizer etc?

Yeah, the Light Audio Option adds Xperia XZ Premium Libraries which will be enabled and loaded by the Xperia Audio Enhancements App. That App is linked as Equalizer on all Music Players like Spotify, Play Music and all default audio Players from ROMs. It does also contain Headphone Profiles and Enhancements, all added on top of the already existing optimizations of the Light Patch...
Think that explains it pretty well. Let Me know how You like it!

What a surprise! I had to fix a Tucana of a friend this weekend, had told him there wasn't much going on for the device, but to experiment running 3rd party ROMs for a while (reluctantly he'd rather stay on MIUI with a locked bootloader).
Since the bootloader was unlocked and you guys had posted this but 2 days ago I decided to give it a spin momentarily, so these are my thoughts:
- Very nice out of the box I must say, went with the version that has GApps built in already (and thank god for that MEGA mirror, Plink wasn't cooperative).
- Installation procedure following the instructions was uneventful, rather confused about needing to format the data partition 2 times, but OK.
- The recovery though... damn, if at all possible perhaps you could try building or re-building any version of it moving forward. The current build of OrangeFox, while functional, does things on the background that I wasn't keen on, and for some reason I couldn't find a way to flash images directly through it! For example, after the Magisk app was installed in the OS and the boot image extracted and patched, I rebooted to the recovery to flash it to boot: no dice. The thing kept on thinking it was a ZIP (dafuk?) so I ended up booting directly from a TWRP build (which as opposed to OFox couldn't decrypt data) to flash the magisk patched boot image.
- Thank God for that Monet override of sorts allowing users to choose a basic color accent
- I didn't see any way to revert from the gesture based navigation to the traditional buttons, is it supported? (just curious, providing an alternative would be nice)
Now for bugs or unusual behaviors:
- Something odd was happening at the beginning in the battery section of settings, look at the following screenshot for more info (no logs, sorry, and it works as expected now, that was more or less right after installation):
Spoiler: Screenshot
- At least some WiFi icons for the statusbar need revisiting, the different stages don't match, look at Xperia's for example:
Spoiler: Screenshot
- The default home app doesn't seem to have permission to display dots over app icons by default from notifications. I wonder if it is at all possible to enable it out of the box, in other devices I've seen some bizarre defaults that leads me to believe it may not be (like... the camera app not having the Camera and Mic permissions enabled, how the hell is it supposed to work otherwise?! )
Spoiler: Screenshot
- I had chosen a different shape for the icons, Teardrop, however after configuring the home screen and drawer through its setting it was reverted back to the default round shape. Perhaps it's not worth looking into since after a reboot of the device my chosen one was applied.
- It was in Magisk and due to the nature of it I couldn't capture a screenshot, but the authentication through fingerprint dialog had the fingerprint icon displayed lower than it should have been. The light and the sensor itself was somewhere half-way up that icon. I wonder if it's app specific or the authentication dialog is baked into the OS and would need to be tweaked, I'm just mentioning it just in case
- The camera app as it is pinned in the lower row of icons of the home screen doesn't work, it may refer to some other package that is not installed because tapping over it by default a toast message appears indicating the app is not installed. Opening it through the drawer worked as expected.
Talking of which... damn that's some barebones app, there's not even an option to choose which camera sensor you want to take the picture from, much less other advanced options. I'd think about replacing it with something more functional. LieageOS' Apperture should be better while still being basic.
Also, I think even in the GApps package having a basic gallery app besides Google's Photos would be nice, something lightweight perhaps, like QuickPic or its mod: https://github.com/WSTxda/QP-Gallery-Releases
I haven't tested the vanilla version of the ROM, but the GApps one was OK, it's nice to see new things coming for Tucana users and I was pleased to see the dialer not being Google's, don't get me wrong, Google's is very nice, but the lack of an option to record a phone call is a pity.

Thanx for the report.
True, tucana community is rather small and at the moment there are only two active developers for that device. But most of the things is happening on Telegram these days (links are given in the OP).
As I'm not the developer, just the tester, I can refer to only some of the issues you have mentioned (maybe the dev will elaborate later).
Actually second Data format is not obligatory, not harmful though but I'll probably remove it from the guide.
I'm pretty sure there is a way to flash .img files in OrangeFox... but I don't have tucana with me right now to check. Anyway, to install Magisk you can simply flash it in recovery. I realize it's not the recommended method now, but in case of tucana it's absolutely fine, working without any issue.
Navigation types should be found in Settings > System > Gestures.
As for permission, I think it's new Google policy introduced in Android 13. They limit permissions as much as possible and even those really needed aren't granted automatically. Actually things involved with privacy are getting more and more difficult with every Android release, not only for users, but for the app developers as well...
Stock camera app is very simple indeed, I think it's a conscious choice, but you can always find good alternatives supporting other lenses. There are good-working GCams with polished XML configs, there are also MIUI Camera ports, but much less perfect. If you have Telegram account, you can find more about camera things here:
Camera group: @minote10photography
APK channel: @minote10apk
XML channel: @minote10xml
Fingerprint dialog mismatch is a known issue and it's present on other devices as well. Probably fixable, we'll see. There are some other minor glitches like those you mentioned, hopefully they will be adressed in the next releases.
Generally the ROM is well done, allowing tucana get a second breath
Not a problem! I testdrove it for a bit and thought it would be good to report back so it keeps getting better, like you said, it seems the Tucana community isn't very engaged since many moved on to a different device. Even the one of my friend had its battery already capable to hold only 52% of what it could at the beginning

I followed it to the letter, since the phone wasn't mine and I just wanted to toy with it for a bit, but perhaps formatting data once (before booting into the system maybe?) is enough.

For the life of me, I wasn't able to do it on the current OrangeFox release for Tucana (11.1_3?), in other devices yes, there are ways to directly flash raw data to partitions, but not here. In any case, after the boot image is patched it could also be flashed via `fastboot`; I'm not a fan of recovery flashing Magisk to be honest, if at all possible I'd like all modifications to be systemlessly in my devices.

That's what I thought, but I've never built an Android distribution before, for me the default state should be consistent, sane, and functional; for me it's the whole experience what makes or breaks a product, something polished grows on me, means attention to detail.
For example, the camera app in some distros that goes without camera and mic permissions by default, seriously guys... what the hell, I *really* dislike having to spend serious time after the first boot to check and set basic things like that. I get the privacy argument, but surely everyone expects the camera app to just show pictures after tapping on it going with the example.
And if it can't be done, well... more patched to Android that are needed to make it so haha, many inbox apps ship with some permissions enabled by default.

I hope it wasn't a conscious decision and it's something that was kind of the default with the current base of the ROM and still wasn't changed, the one that's shipped right now doesn't do anybody any favors. I know there are alternatives, even in the Play Store there are plenty of camera apps, but it's the same as before: sane defaults. This device, for example, has what, 3 sensors + the macro one? And the default app uses just one of them without possibility of choosing? It may not be a big deal for many perhaps, but I think it's big enough for others to look somewhere else.

¡Oh! So it's a known issue an happens in other devices too? Damn... perhaps something to do with the layout? Since I was using the default gesture navigation the height of the button navigation bar wasn't present, maybe that's the thing that needs to be taken into account.
And I completely agree! Granted I didn't use the phone with OctaviOS that much (some 3 hours perhaps), but it was a pleasant experience, I think it can only get better from here with some dedication so congrats for all involved!
As for Telegram, I do use it, but I don't really have a Tucana so those groups aren't useful to me (I wouldn't be able to provide feedback on anything or try stuff) and since my friend wanted pure MIUI (not even Xiaomi.eu's) with a locked bootloader won't be of any help either hahaha but I wish Tucana users the best
Hi,
great rom, my MI 10 feels like a new modern phone now, thank you very much for development!
Everything works fine, except...
- camera crashed -> installed gcam port, not a problem any more...
- bluetooth volume is far too low, PLEASE tell me how to fix this issue. Tried development setting, but volume is still far too low. Any idea?
Thank's!
...seems to be an Apple Airphone problem, JBL box works fine...

Camera has always been a problem on this device for custom ROMs, but there are good GCam alternatives. You can also try to install MIUI Camera port called ANX, but there are some flaws
Thank you for this really very successful ROM. So far I haven't noticed any problems, except the camera which has problems on every custom rom with this smartphone! The interface is fast, and battery life is good.

Great OS, is there a setting for gesture control that allows swiping in the top half of the Phone in order to use in App functions such as opening the menu instead of only getting backwards?

I did not have any particular bugs to note. Fast charging works up to 30W, fingerprint and face unlock works, NFC too, VOLTE too, OTG too, and AOD too.
1.What is latest build security patch date?
2. Is google pay working?
3. Is OTA supported? And when doing update apps settings are not changed?
4. Any bugs?
