  1. Why can’t you provide useful links for the ROM? The ‘download’ link just sends me to the supported devices list, which leads me back here, while none of LOS 15 device listings seem to show the P1.
    You also list root (before upgrade) and TWRP in the pre-requirements, while not having links for them.
    Is it possible, that this is just a mostly generic article about a non-existing ROM? (there are also suspiciosly no comments)
