BlackX ROM is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 7.1 (Nougat), which is designed to increase performance and smoothness over stock Android for your device.​

* Your warranty is now void.

* We are not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
* do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at us for messing up your device, we will laugh at you.

BlackX ROM is based on LineageOS which is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. You will need to provide your own Google Applications package (gapps).
Anywone who wishes to contribute to BlackX ROM is free to give their feedback in this thread.
All the source code for LineageOS is available in the LineageOS Github repo. And if you would like to contribute to LineageOS, please visit our Gerrit Code Review. Your changelog is whatever was merged into gerrit.
Important information:
This thread is for BlackX ROM builds for LeEco Le Max 2.
If you have problems after flashing any custom kernels please provide a log in the thread where you got the kernel from and not here!
I don't want to see anything about Antutu scores here because it's bs, it's all synthetic
Known bugs:
Any current LineageOS 14.1 official build bugs such as flash desync
Features:
Snapdragon LLVM Compiler 3.8.8 and the latest google's clang for host
Kernel/ROM is compiled using bleeding edge GCC 6.x toolchain based on UBER
SQLite, Skia, Libpng, Libcore, WebP, Jemalloc, ART, Bionic, Dalvik, Zlib, libjpeg-turbo, gemmlowp (mainly from BenzoRoms sources, it is more up to date and optimized).
Kernel with optimizations, additional tweaks and updates (based on Blackscreen and Blu_spark kernel, also I suggest to use this one)
UBER-ified JustArchi's ArchiDroid Optimizations (O3, Graphite, Strict Aliasing, OpenMP, etc.)
SDCLANG LTO implemented and applied on several parts which have impact on performance
Patches related to overall responsiveness, smoothness and user experience
A few additional practical settings/tweaks
Blu_active
Upstreamed kernel
Slim trees
Other things I forgot about

Don't know what you mean about "how's audio". The rom is using BS kernel. If you want better audio feel free to install dolby or viper or any eq

I never saw any difference with all the roms I've tried using my ATH-MSR7. The only difference is if you use dolby or not

If official LineageOS builds support it, then my rom too. I saw it in settings, but my country doesn't support Volte so I can't tell you for sure

Infrag's aicp have custom patch. Try. Is the only rom for the x2, in my opinion, that have a good sound without using any eq.
I use that for this
I've asked because i want to try other rom without losing quality sound
