Can you test it @maksymx please?

@anon1892 is there a guide about testing? Or I need just open the app and try to test?

Given your profile picture, you're running Linux (don't know how to do that on Windows)
Download the code associated to #341 : https://github.com/anon1892/oai/archive/refs/heads/dipper.zip
Unzip it, enter the folder and open a terminal. Then, type :

• make poetry
• make install
• make app

If you want to start again the app, you only need to type the last command.

And tell us what it does !

The other "easier" way is just downloading the config an placing it in the same folder as the executable repective to the platform. OAI will load this config just as it was included.

Oops 🙈

You can install the flatpak and test that.

I've tried to install the lineageOS on my mi8, but after all steps it went into bootloop

No need to be sorry, that happens to all of us all the time 😁

Thats unfortunate...
Can you upload the log file of the installer here? (How to find the logfile: https://openandroidinstaller.org/faq.html#find-logs)

Merged and officially still untested.
