Flashed expecting amazing performance & flavour. It did not dissapointed its just as good as in LG G5 & HTC One M8. Speedy & light the best combo. Everything is working nicely. @bcrichster have you ever tried porting Paranoid Android to owens?

Thank you so much! And Yes, several times.. The critical parts are closed source, not in github and actually only buildable by their Team since.. LP. I did indeed see a post on their G+ that they're gonna go back to open sourcing the ROM and I asked if their were gonna do the same for Nougat and they straight up said 'Not Likely'

Yo @bcrichster i don't know what magic you did for this rom but dang is it fast. Is missing a few features that are cool on other Roms but Xenon has just enough to have you busy for a bit. Plus having the pixel navbar + animation is a God's gift.
-Reboot are the fastest out of every rom (at least to my testing)
-60+ apps & 5 different Substratum Layers and perfomances does not want to drop at all.
-12+ Hours of Screen on time battery (can go longer if given breaks occasionally)
-Multitasking is fairly better compare to VenomOS
-Boot Time is a snappy as CrDroid 3.8.9
Overall XenonHD is Really balance i would say it equals to this
VenomOS + CrDroid 3.8.9 = XenonHD
