          @Caedem These are things I don't tend to use on a device apart from battery life which I generally got around 3 days out of one charge (same with anew battery v older battery). Apparmor as far as I am aware is part of the system and should be patched as per OTA (please correct me if I am wrong).

          Xiaomi Redmi Note 7.... And more...
          I have too many devices...

            I found "Check if keyboard vibration works. This is a good indication that AppArmor has been successfully applied."

            Since keyboard vibration works I'm going to assume AppArmor is in place

                    Video acceleration: played a video for 15 mins and it warmed up, but not what I'd call hot. I'd like opinions on whether I should mark that as working or not, or better yet a more reliable way to check

                      Ok so: wireless external monitor and NFC I can't test. Aside from those two, the only thing I haven't tested is 24 hours battery life but I need to test that again with less intensive usage so that'll take a while. I tested hardware acceleration and got moderately warm, like 40-45ish degrees judging by feel after 15 mins so nothing conclusive there, and I don't have a direct method to clearly indicate if there is hardware acceleration or not: so I'm leaving that as untested.

                      TL;DR: Still need to test 24 hours battery life, can't test the rest. I've marked the MR as ready.

                              Update: also adding a feature list for Noble, 7+ days stability ended up working (must've gotten unlucky), and changed mms to ? cos it seems I don't have mms from my provider

                                  Camera flashlight seems to work on Noble, interesting, but the torch itself doesn't
