I have a question: If in the future I want to install the rom stock oreo again, the downgrade of the fingerprint will bring a problem? I downgrade fingerprint before or after installing the crdroid? Great work, thank you!

Excellent, everything working but i noticed an anomaly in battery consumption, more than 4%/h due to wakelock coming from "com.android.nfc", after deleting "/system/app/NfcNci" folder the problem was solved

Everything seems to work fine on XT1795 but I am not able to find fingerprint authentication in security settings. I had this feature on crDroid Nougat but not in this Oreo?

Did you flash downgrade?

No. I came from stock Oreo 8.1. I am afraid that I could hard brick my device once again if I downgrade to Nougat. Recently I flashed on older version of bootloader on the Nougat rom and the result was a hard brick.

I am back on Stock 8.1. I was facing severe battery drain issue, slow charging and random network drops when using mobile data on Jio sim card. I have been a long time user of crDroid (nougat based) but never faced any such issues then.
