In this thread there will be mods which are confirmed to work and/or to increase the device performance I will list the following things:
Current Roms which are in development
System Kernels
Custom Scripts
Preformance tweaks
Firstly before any of these Roms, modifications you will need a rooted device. This means that you will need to unlock the bootloader via HTC-DEV.com I will explain how to do this on post number two.
Before you do any of this I am not responsible for any damages, data loss or anything of that nature by doing these mods, if you choose to do them you are at your own risk, if you follow the steps properly you should be fine
Okay now the word of warning is out of the way lets get started...
Roms
The current roms which are practically finished, and are adding little tweaks every release are considered the most stable at the moment and this roms are...
The Nameless Rom by einstein.frat is based on the stock rom or RUU if you like, but with added speed and features such as 3D rosie:
NAMELESS ROM THREAD
The second Rom is also based one the standard sense rom, just with many less applications and with being de-odexed, and is built by mmmcfc:
SLIM SENSE
In this next section there will be work in progress roms, but bear in mind that these roms are not intended for daily use, as of yet, so be warned!
Unofficial CyanogenMod 9 for HTC Desire C, this rom is built by the developer Munjeni, most features are working such as phoning sms but WIFI and some other connectivity and sound hardware don't appear to work properly:
Unofficial Cyanogenmod 9
Kernels
This section will explain how to flash a kernel and which ones to use, you have to be aware that certain kernels will not allow WIFI or other features to work as it has to be hard-coded into the system. Firstly Before you install any Kernels you need to know how to install them properly so the things you will need are:
HTC Sync Manger
HTC Drivers for fastboot
Android sdk

Hey guys,
This rom works great and with an amazing camera...only seeing is believing.
Has lollipop feel with touchwiz interface.
Use Kingroot for rooting.
As always
1. use camfix and bootfix from Dani, in case you run into bootloop.
2. autorotate fix from Shiv, if needed.
Regards
Rom download available in Downloads Section.
Help Needed : Recovery Problem after flashing
After flashing this rom, recovery mode is no longer accessible, in case, we need to revert.
I tried many methods to get to recovery, but no avail.
This was also reported by satishbeauty.
I reformatted using sptools to flash stock and then a custom rom to get over this.
Can the gurus suggest some method to get over this please.......
Regards
Kannan
Gud But Some Problems
Hi
Kannanrs
This rom Looks Good But Some Problems is There...
No Network Stability...
Always It Shows Unfortunetly Google search Stopped....
Unfortunetly Smasung ime Stopped...
It Didint Shows Keybord On Any....
And One More More Problem If We Want to Install Another Rom We Have to Install Original Stock rom again and we have to install custom rom It Losses Rooting...
Chowdary55,
yes, you are right.
Network stability can be worked around, by pushing the modem.img from any working rom into the system/etc/firmware folder.
Dont bother abt the google search error much, by updating the google search app, this is overcome.
For keyboard, check if you have any other keyboard in your backup, flash that and deselect the samsung keyboard.
Very sorry that the recovery boot is lost, we debated this yday for a while.
Then, i used wiko stairway rom installer, available in the general section, to flash afresh.
Another find is that reducing the dpi, gives a distorted touchwiz and dialer.
I looking at tips and hints from other forums, In fact, i posted the keyboard workaround in the parent forum.
Regards
Hey Guys,
New ROM in the works called PussyFap from A116, by ags34.
Waiting for a new update on this rom from the porter, as i was advised to wait for a while.
Im currently testing the current version which is V2.5..
If things go well, you will have another lollipop themed kitkat rom.
This, will sure, offer better Network Stability,
Mystik is behaving well with modem from other kitkat roms.
Native Lollipop is expected to pour anyway from the Gurus and you can expect some news in the coming days.
Regards
Waiting for new update
Happening asap
Bro Do u have any screenshots ?????
Hi,
Check this link : http://customroms.theswapnil.com/2015/09/galaxy-evolution-note-5-v17-kitkat.html
for screenshots.
Intend to release an update or a new rom with Note 5 features soon, as this rom breaks the recovery
and one cannot install a new rom afterwards.
Information about new rom will be announced soon.
Greetings
Siddharth,
Please apply patches from this thread for get over boot loop with Optimus Rom.

Hi Guys,
S6Edge Rom from A116 is under testing now, working out on some of the simple bugs to make this usable in our devices.
This ROM doesnt need a bootpatch, is a welcome one, the camera needs to be worked on, doesnt work even with the camera patch.
Otherwise, smooth and stable with Lollipop UI.
Hope to see this released soon...
Greetings
Hi
Kannanrs
Waiting For Galaxy Evolution Bugless Rom and With Root Support.... from you....
Work is on the way.... S6Edge Rom might replace this as is getting tested..There are bugs to be cleared...
Major one being, this does not corrupt the recovery.
Other ROMS, that can appear are Windows OS, that needs play-store tweaks plus substitute for chinese apps and Hive OS that is very laggy.
Greetings...

Camera Pictures (fixed in build#3)
Not Working List:
RIL Data
FAQ:
Dont install too many apps obviously
The first boot should be faster than previous nougat roms.. Since I have now used pre-odexed /system.
Known Issues:
Lagginess ofc, due to our device being old
Sometimes SystemUI gets killed due to low memory and we get Black Screen of Death
Install Instructions :
[WARNING]:
You must be already on at least Lollipop/Marshmallow ROM and have latest TWRP 3.1.1.
You must format /data as f2fs in TWRP.
Bootanimation is working since build #3.
You should already been familiar with flashing custom ROMs before.
And know how togo from gingerbread -> nougat.
Please check other threads for that..
If someone wants to contribute install instructions for this ROM.
I will be happy to add here and give credits.
Gapps
I havent tested GAPPS.. but I can guess the performance will be horrible with it.
However, I have included the patch for microG GmsCore signature spoofing. So you could try that.
Additional Info:
Built from latest LineageOS 14.1 Sources.
Latest kernel from @xc-racer99 aosp-7.1 branch
Live wallpapers, LineageOS Updater, Weather Service removed for low memory footprint.

I'm delighted that there's still someone who is working on this device. I'll be appreciated to wait for a more stable version of nougat.
The rom is indeed quite stable.
However, Webview doesn't seem to work. I think you should take a look here.
Also, built-in root with the Su-addon doesn't work.
And flashing a Magisk or SuperSu zip (made by @xc-racer99 ) resulted in a bootloop, but I was able to access the recovey.

Expect lot of stuffs dont work at the moment.. listed in Not working.
About webview I will try to replace it.
Magisk and SuperSu try to patch boot.img and ramdisk.. and our device uses a very hacky way to load ramdisks.
I will create a patched ramdisk with latest Magisk then..
This has to be the fastest Nougat ROM I've flashed on this phone! Thanks for keeping this amazing phone alive. Can't wait to see it become more stable in the future
Full changelog: build #2
Fixed Audio/Video playback
I had to remove ffmpeg codecs as they were causing hardware decoding to not work.
Hardware decoding is working fine and 720p playback is smooth too..
I've tested without bigmem mode.. I havent implemented bigmem libs for 720p playback.
So please try without bigmem before reporting issues with it.
Fixed Webview
AOSP Webview was somehow not working on our device.. as pointed out by @MYEUHD
The solution he linked was to revert to older webview.
But that is outdated and unsafe so I tried with latest Android System Webview.
It seemed to work so I set it to default.
I havent tried but we can also use Chrome as our Webview..
Switched to OpenGL 2.0
We were stilling using OpenGL 1.4 for rendering.. this shouldnt affect much.. but animations should be smoother
Since we no longer get Shader errors with OpenGL 2.0
Let me know if you find any difference performance wise compared to build #1.
Downloads are in OP.
Status Update:
Project discontinued.
Status Update:
You can skip this paragraph if are not intrested in my long story cut short.
So I have been trying to fix stuffs which means.. rebuilding and flashing the ROM.
Wiping data .. getting logs.. testing if something works.. Repeat
I hadnt really used my Galaxy S1 phone.. It was just lying around a corner of my table getting dust.
Until one day I thought, let's build Oreo for this old time phone.. turns out the battery was RIP due
to not charging it for so long.. so I got a replacment battery then booted to see cm-14.1 build by
Coldwindofnowhere and missing IMEI which I sucessfully restored after creating a thread here.
Again thanks for that to @xc-racer99 and @MYEUHD
So I started out device trees and repos based on Coldwindofnowhere and xc-racer99
and made it compatabile with Oreo. And thanks to rInanD0 I was able to pick stuffs necessary on
kernel side.
Then me and @xc-racer99 discussed some stuff and I picked changes from Unlegacy-Android gerrit to properly do some stuff.. I fixed lots of stuffs.. but I couldnt get the display to initialize... so I decided
to wait for Unlegacy-Android for their take on Galaxy Nexus which shares same GPU as us to bring up Oreo first.
In the mean time, I thought again.. why not build Nougat for now.. so I again setup device tree and repos for
nougat. and we are here..
Okay so I havent really used my Galaxy S1 let alone this ROM.
This ROM does seem fast while moving around just after a first boot.
And really I hadnt installed or used any apps besides the one that came with LineageOS.
But today while trying to fix Camera, I had to actually take photos. Oh, and the reason camera was not working
was due to I had disabled building of Camera HAL in Oreo which stuck around... big derp
So camera preview was working now.. Snap camera wasnt savinf photos at first..
so I thought to install Open Camera.. I installed F-Droid.. then Open Camera..
Then I clicked some photos which seemed to be saved.
There were a lot of photos created so I decided to delete them.
But Files app wasnt deleting them.. must be a permission issue?
So i installed a file manager from F-Droid and deleted the photos.
Good enough.. then I thought I need to download these apps again after a data wipe..
Lets backup them.. so I installed an apk backup again from F-Droid.
While it was downloading.. BAM Screen went all BLACK.
I tried clicking home button but nothing.. then I clicked power button nothing.
Then I hold power button.. i got the options...
Now I was reminded of this bug which has been around since Lollipop? or Marshmallow days..
Screen going all black.. back then Coldwindofnowhere predicted it might due to out of memory issues..
And he is right.. I had adb running so I checked free memory and swap.. The swap file was and memory was nearly full.
I checked dmesg for logs... then I saw lowmemorykiller killing all kinds of stuff.. but there was only one time it killed this..
Code:
lowmemorykiller: Killing 'system:ui' (5642), adj 902,
And thats the reason for the black screen.. Now we all know this device doesnt have much memory.
So the option would be to not install many or any apps.. on this option..
Ofcourse I could try to get CMA working properly.. which adds just around 70-80mb I guess..
And we could just white list system ui to not get killed.. but then it would kill other important processes..
So I've decided to stop working on Nougat. I dont wanna give people false hope of *stable* nougat.
I will still upload a build with Camera fixed.. Well video recording still doesnt work.. Looking at logs.. i need to resurrect
the old way of video buffer. which got removed in Nougat.
And while Project Nougat is offically discontinued, Project Oreo is still alive just paused.
I will at least get Oreo bootanimation on this device.
Thanks for trying out this short lived nougat ROM.
Full changelog: build #3
Switched kernel from @Coldwindofnowhere to @xc-racer99
I think xc-racer99 kernel has better memory management. since the lowmemory killer doesnt kill many processes..
However I did make some changes to it.
Disabled CMA
Enabled and set zRAM to 1/4 of total memory
Some kernel build optimizations.
Note that.. this kernel doesnt have BigMem Support so wer'e stuck with 383MiB ram for now.
Fixed Bootanimation
Yeah.. that was a my mistake.. err..
At least you know its booting now.. but since we use pre-odexed ROM first boot shall be done in 5 minutes now..
Fixed Camera
Taking pictures should work now. Video recording is broken.. It needs to updated for Nougat..
Added Magisk in ramdisk
Latest version 14.0. Just install magisk manager AND DONT TRY TO PATCH BOOT.IMG..
We use very differnet system for boot.img and ramdisks..
I will try to update Magisk to latest version.
Fixed a big mistake in updater
https://github.com/galaxys1-nougat/...mmit/a6f51178503a01f6b1e7b0c8222e875392af8a8e
Flashing boot.img would actually result in wiping it in some cases..
If you had troubles installing this ROM or any ROMs in the past.. this might be the case..
The flash over mm dont work for me i have an error 7 i try to reflash and now no twrp i need to restore via odin any help?

Error 7 is assert error... which I guess is coming from updater script..
You dont need to restore whole stock ROM..
I have built a twrp only recovery image... so you can just straight boot to recovery after Odin..
You can also flash recovery.img from heimdall .

How is this Rom compared to the LineageOS 4.4.4?
why cant we have a ROM with all the desired features. there are certainly many android roms but each is unique in its way. how many have you changed a ROM just because you didn't like a single thing about it or a single feature is missing.
is it possible for us to get a single ROM that has features added that the users want and not what the developers think we want.
no offense we appreciate the work you do.
The only way is to build your own rom with all the required features..
Try RR rom which has every single features you are looking for

RR doesn't have a pie rom
There used to be a ROM, that was a combination of all major custom roms avaliable at it"s time
Paranoid Android
+
AOKP
+
CyanogenMod
PAC rom. Unfortunately it's last and final version was 6.0 (MM based) and PAC team made a announcement, that PAC rom is no longer going to be developed and they will make a new rom. This statement is from 2016....
Ressurection Remix seems to be it"s closest friend (it's Oreo based though)
on OREO!
RR, AEX, CRDROID, HOVAC with few nip and tucks they have almost everything you would love!
also if you try each rom with different kernel each reacts differntly with Volume, battery and performance
1. InsigniuX kernel x10
2. Derp 4.0
3. Agni Kernel
4. stormguard and Kirks kernel
so the more different roms are the more choices you have to suite according to you needs, requirement and customization!
thats the beauty!
also MOKEE is good too! very stable! ,

yes and all the other distributions you can think of but there is always this one feature that i missing , that is present one but not in other. overall that ROM is good.

since 8.1 roms have reached to its END! so there is nothing more is going on with them!
but dirty Unicorn released all sorts of system UI tweaks for 8.1 and Xposed working on 8.1, hence i have done my fair share of homework & found out that Satisfactory level of DU tweaks founded in
1. CR Droid (final OREO released Oct2018)
2. Havoc 8.1 (final Oreo Aug2018
3. RR 6.2 ( final , sept 2018) ( currently using) ( no double tap to sleep feature)
4. AOSIP8.1 (very nice, Aug2018 one time build for 8.1, no incremental builds on 8.1)
5. AEX ( similar to AOSIP but have FONTS support , which makes is more attractive)
6. OMNIROM & Linage! both very stable roms! but both vanished after 1 attempt of release on android 8.1 (no UI Tweaks Found)
ALL CUSTOM ROMS USES KERNELS DERP, (few uses stormguard or InsigniuX) however all these kernels are from main tree of ANYKERNEL BY Osm0sis on github. and all roms i had tried on TWO three different RN5p ,,, i found
1. RANDOM REBOOTS when you remove phone from ear and waiting screen to wakup so that you disconnect CALL.
2. same happens with whatsapp call too!
3. when headphone jack is inserted, everything works perfect! no random reboots
4. RR6.2 don't start syncing unless u wake the mobile! ,
5. audio volume on whatsapp call is ALWAYS ALWAYS low! no matter how much you tweak mixer path file! but on CRDOID its little better for uknown reason
6. both CRdroid4.7 and HAVOC on android 8.1 have strange random network connectivity failure, they both just cant read simcards in tray unless u re insert sim while mobile is ON. I network reset many times on areoplane mode and restart device! , sometimes it works! but many times i have to re inserte simcards after rebooting device (tried on InsigniuX and Derp kernels)
now there is MOKEE Rom which releases updated version EVERYDAY! 750+mb to download each day or atleast every alternative day! i used MOKEE for 1month almost and
1. there was update every day! , incremental updates were 20mb but later they removed incremental update feature and now FULL rom needs to be downloaded. WHERE
2. I found out they are only updating preinstalled app versions or updating Kernel version if its releases. so there was never DEVELOPMENTAL increase!. (not that I know off) because
3. I had been reporting that IMO gives some SOUND LIBRARIES ERROR and the other party can hear YOUR "helo Helo" but all you can hear is SILENCE... but till last november build the same bug was there! , whatsapp volume is ok but
4. MOKEE don't have DU tweaks and I wanted to control navbar height so i installed DIMENSIONS EDITOR in XPOSED and SOUND /VOLUME/CALL DIED. it became so low! , when xposed removed and rom reflashed (dirty flashed) , sound became back to normal.
so summing up! its not just rom!
the link between given ANYKERNEL by Osm0sis to enrich end user experience also MATTERS!

ALL CUSTOM ROMS USES KERNELS DERP, (few uses stormguard or InsigniuX) however all these kernels are from main tree of ANYKERNEL BY Osm0sis on github. and all roms i had tried on TWO three different RN5p ,,, i found
1. RANDOM REBOOTS when you remove phone from ear and waiting screen to wakup so that you disconnect CALL.
2. same happens with whatsapp call too!
3. when headphone jack is inserted, everything works perfect! no random reboots
4. RR6.2 don't start syncing unless u wake the mobile! ,
5. audio volume on whatsapp call is ALWAYS ALWAYS low! no matter how much you tweak mixer path file! but on CRDOID its little better for uknown reason
6. both CRdroid4.7 and HAVOC on android 8.1 have strange random network connectivity failure, they both just cant read simcards in tray unless u re insert sim while mobile is ON. I network reset many times on areoplane mode and restart device! , sometimes it works! but many times i have to re inserte simcards after rebooting device (tried on InsigniuX and Derp kernels)
now there is MOKEE Rom which releases updated version EVERYDAY! 750+mb to download each day or atleast every alternative day! i used MOKEE for 1month almost and
1. there was update every day! , incremental updates were 20mb but later they removed incremental update feature and now FULL rom needs to be downloaded. WHERE
2. I found out they are only updating preinstalled app versions or updating Kernel version if its releases. so there was never DEVELOPMENTAL increase!. (not that I know off) because
3. I had been reporting that IMO gives some SOUND LIBRARIES ERROR and the other party can hear YOUR "helo Helo" but all you can hear is SILENCE... but till last november build the same bug was there! , whatsapp volume is ok but
4. MOKEE don't have DU tweaks and I wanted to control navbar height so i installed DIMENSIONS EDITOR in XPOSED and SOUND /VOLUME/CALL DIED. it became so low! , when xposed removed and rom reflashed (dirty flashed) , sound became back to normal.
so summing up! its not just rom!
the link between given ANYKERNEL by Osm0sis to enrich end user experience also MATTERS!

Wow that's alot of info but still all the developer for custom ROM just do the same thing like building a brand and rarely try any cool experiments ... I used to love those custom roms from ICS time they used out any features they could find.
Resurrection Remix Oreo
If you're not familiar with Resurrection Remix (RR), it's a very customizable and feature rich ROM. It's packed with some many great features like a notification ticker (like in the good ol' Kitkat days), styling changes, custom gestures, and more! RR is based on LineageOS. This is a build originally developed on by (russel5), but abandoned in favor of AospEx and Pie projects of his. Personally, I'm not a fan of the direction taken in Pie and will be sticking with Oreo. I'll be developing the rom further with features, bug fixes and enhancements. Any suggestions or bugs should be opened as an issue on the Github.
Please report any issues you have on the Github. The issue tracker helps me keep organized and on top of stuff.
Downloads

Installation
1. Download firmware zip
2. Download OpenGapps/MicroG/Whatever
3. Push to phone
4. Reboot to recovery (recommend TWRP) and do a full wipe
5. Flash RR then whatever else after (Gapps, ect)
6. Reboot

General Info:
If you have issues with the camera being green, make sure you update your firmware to the most recent Oreo one via newflasher. I will update this with information regarding this. It's been months since I did it so I need to remember and hunt the files down I used (which is hard since my last computer died and I switched to Linux). I'd backup your Drm keys before doing anything if you do.
Exclude when flashing:
* fotakernel.sin
* kernel.sin
* simlock.ta (if you have it)
* system.sin
* userdata.sin
* vendor.sin
Forced encryption is disabled. If you want it make sure to flash the boot img attached. Many users have bootloops so use at your own caution. To flash use fastboot flash boot boot.img

Yes, very good rom but i find out on androidfilehost about half year, so old.
USB tethering doesnt work.
Plenty of functions.
Stable, fast, no lags, pretty battery acceptable, more than 1 day of battery life.
Display options from stock, stock camera works very good.
I think, we need upgrade RR to 7 or 8.
I am using it now for about week and its very good as daily.
And at this moment its way better than Q roms.

You can't find the most recent version of the rom on AFH, I had to hunt it down from some random forum and the most recent one before that was unstable so wanted to get it out there for people to have. I really like RR. I'll test tethering, I thought it was fine but haven't really used it. Maybe I'll mess with 7 or 8 someday after I have this one developed alittle. I personally don't have any interest in Pie+.
Edit: USB tethering works fine for me. Must be an issue with your computer. I'm using Kubuntu 18.04 and works perfectly.

I am using Windows 8.1, but in other roms like stock or PE 10 USB tethering works. I push that on and no reaction in computer - networking.
If will be Havoc OS 2.x or BaikalOS, ill start interest in pie, because i had these roms in Mi Mix 2 and they was best. Havoc in general, can be compared with most functions with RR, Baikal from russia brats in battery life, performance and simplicity.
Idk if they dont arrive to XZ1c, but pie i liked was stock, Oxygen, Miui (with some bugs, but with future).
Still, oreo and nougat roms are older, but better in most things except mentioned roms.

No idea, it has to be your computer I'm guessing. Make sure you're running the most recent version since that other versions found on the other thread is very buggy. Noted on them.

Got a new update out https://github.com/hockeymikey/android_device_sony_lilac/releases/tag/6.2.1-2020.09.04
Check it out and let us know how it works. Seems stable on my end from testing.
How does Resurrection Remix compare to CrDroid?

No idea, can't remember testing out the Pie CrDRoid on here. I'm not a fan of Pie+ so it didn't interest me. Should test and report in, looks like they are similar being LOS based with decent amount of customization. CrDroid has signature spoofing, but I'm making a build with that added in for RR as I type. But yeah, let me know and what other features that CrDroid has that looks cool.

Hi, i have tested update of this rom and found out 2 system bugs.
First thing - bootloop. I flashed it like usually with newest BitGapps arm64 8.1.0 v15 and magisk. BitGapps caused bootloop. Clean install with only magisk booted, but magisk app not installed, so i had to install Magisk Manager manually, root installed.
Second boot into recovery and flash BitGapps caused no google store app, like before, so i flashed MindGapps and it works.
It is mine problem, i using alternative gapps but good to notice.
Sometimes not smooth, torn animations. More often than older build.
Red blinkings: Right after successful boot, after some clicks i see weird red blinkings on display. Something similar like in developer options turn on display blinkings after stress GPU/CPU but this happen in random time and is not turned on. Is little bit enyoying, its not happened in older 2018 build.
So my decide will be flash again .228 firmware and stay with Havoc OS, now i used version 3.8 for month and i can say, now is android 10 in lilac flawlessly done. I like more older Oreo UI but fix issue with blinking and i will be your satisfied user.
Thank you and best regards.

What's special about Bitgapps? That's really strange, can you grab a log on boot using adb? If not, go to https://github.com/hockeymikey/android_device_sony_lilac/issues and make an issue and help me track it and I'll get around to testing it. It'll help keep in touch with you and solve it especially if for some reason I can't recreate it for some reason. I got that red outline too and I thought it was just me. It went away for me so might be temporary on the initial install. If you could create an issue for that too on the previous link so I can keep you updated for that too.

So I did some testing. The red blinking is gone, that fix will be included in the next release (which includes signature spoofing and updates so a few system libraries like base, native and lineage-sdk). BitGapps doesn't cause a bootloop for me. It was kinda buggy, which is odd and crashes. I'll see what I can find for it. Magisk works fine for me. Make sure it's the most recent version but I was using old versions too as well as new so I don't know.
Hm, with usb-debugging enabled, it dont ask for permission and dont save the adb-key, so u arent able to adb into twrp. But ADB to the booted device works. Anybody else got this?

That's a TWRP reason. Whoever built it disabled adb in it. I repackaged twrp to allow adb for myself, I can share it if you want.
This will be nice
And... i get this red-frame too if some higher cpu-usage happens. What did u do against it?
Encrypting the device ends in a infinity-loop at the "Encrypting... time remaining 00:00.."-Screen.
Maybe i missed something (tried with and without the boot.img for force-encryption)?

I think this is the correct one, let me know if not. Red frame is an issue I caused with how I built it, building it as a dev build not production. It's fixed on my device. I'll eventually get a new build out, I've been waiting to get OpenDelta done for OTA updates first to streamline the updating process. Maybe I should push one out sooner since the build on here I don't think is really that usable while my phone one I'm using daily. I haven't tested encryption honestly. I'll have to look into. If you could make an issue on github with every little detail to help me track and fix, that'd be cool.
Hmm, same problem -> adb devices -> unauthorized
And there is no dialog for accept/store the ADB-Key if u plugin the PC for the first time.
So.. i was using newflasher to flash the stock oreo rom and guess what... the stock rom does the same... so if u flash the stock rom (47.1.A.16.20) without remove any files from the stock-rom-directory and the adb_key still exists... where can it be?
BTW: i can access the stock-rom with adb add the first start at the "Welcome"-Screen... but twrp cant find/use the key which is stored $somewhere
