No problem for me with 20180124, background task clear works as expected.
Let's wait for other feedbacks.

NB: I did not install the previous 20180105

Myphone was bricked! No connection to the PC PC or Mac!!! I BOUGHT a second one, and hot It yesterday. Installera It! And guess whist?! My brand ner BV 8000, nr 2, Coult not be restarted after sleeping mode!!!! I cam’t reboot Android with Power +! Whafk!!! Blackview you are just clowns!!! I trusted...

I will not provide any download link in this forum untill it becomes official and available through official channel.
Since it's beta it still probably has bugs/problems, I don't want not experienced users to flash this rom and ask for problem solvings in this forum.

Beta of android 8 is out (20180307).
I DO NOT RECOMMEND TO DOWNLOAD AND FLASH THE BETA.

Just to let you know the development is going on by blackview team!

Hello, no it isn't!
Rugged phone doesn't mean the warranty covers damages from falls, immersions and similar things.

You can buy yourself the replacement parts, or ask to a local general mobile repair center to repair your phone (if it's able..).
