No OTA for Sweet

I am unable to see OTA updater in system settings. How do I update the rom?

OTA is not present. Installation instructions are available on the website.

I am unable to update using dirty method. Kindly suggest what should I do.

Read the instructions. Dirty flashing works fine.

One last help! Can you confirm the steps as I previously dirty flashed the rom using orangefox recovery and ended up formatting my phone.

1. Reboot to recovery
2. Clear dalvik
3. Clear cache
4. Install the rom
5. Reboot to system

Thank you in advance.

And also is there any future plans to add OTA support as reflashing the rom is a little inconvenient and a little bit risky as well.

@lakshyarao22 As I said, please refer to the website for instructions. When a clean flash is needed, it is mentioned in the blog or the device changelog, I would refer to both of them. All OTA does is reflash the ROM. It's the same thing, just with having you download it manually, i.e. the "risk" factor stays the same
