Nice, Oreo goodness! Question, since my power button's dead : Is there a setting for waking the screen on volume button press? This is what kept me from the AOSP 8.0 ROM, still now on 7.1.2 RR

What is SOT in this rom
And is it fully stable or buggy

Hey! Thanks for bringing this ROM! You've done a pretty good job here! I used it for a couple of days alongside AIM ROM v.2.5 and I must say it's quite impressive. There are some sound notification artifacts and the LED notification indicator doesn't seem to work properly for me (it could be related to some faulty hardware in my Zenfone Max), however, I don't mind those little bugs at all as the whole ROM seem to work flawlessly. As a side note, I would remove the optional Nova Launcher as long as it doesn't break any necessary dependencies. I know it's popular and it can be removed using root, but Launcher3 or any other FOSS Launcher can do the job just great as default. Magisk and Stericson's Busybox works great here. Beware new users, don't try to flash any Gapps above NANO as it will immediately brick the phone.
Great job!
EDIT: After tinkering with lots of Magisk and Xposed modules, and even installing the Aroma Gapps package, removing the original launcher with the Pixel one, this is by far the most stable Oreo ROM for the Z010D to date. It's incredibly fast, efficient and ShadowReaper1's Kernel works great. There are no sound artifacts whatsoever. I'm staying with this one for now
