i am quitting maintainership and custom rom stuff in general due to personal issues. thankyou for being a part of the community, using the roms and reporting feedback when needed i really appreciated it. Its time to go stock now though

i'll also be getting rid of telegram (nvm i'll stay and still annoy yall :)). thankyou all


i would recommend switching to lineageos or any other rom which suits you best.

Thankyou all again

nvm im back

i pulled a joey moment right there 😔🥀

(stock is fuking awful i cant survive on this shi-.)

Okay for seriousness. what caused me to back off was serious demotivation and pressure, at the time. I didnt feel right and nothing made sense. I am doing better now and in a shape to maintain enough. Might be a lil more busy but i can definitely keep this going. I miss it already. Stock is horrible. (atleast for me. is subjective to users). No where as smooth. No where as good battery life. Lack of monet and lets not talk about the random sony bugs

Forgive me for giving yall a heart attack and for those who switched away. you may flash back or stay idk up to u.

again sorry 😭

most importantly i cant give this amazing community up that we have built together. Thank yall
