What is Havoc OS?
Probably the most customizable ROM out here, the Havoc OS is a rom based on AOSP that is inspired by Google Pixel. It runs on the redefined material design 2 UI and I must say it is the best looking ROM out here. Having used many other GSI ROMs, the Havoc OS is by far my favorite of all time.
Havoc OS has no bloatware, making it smooth and fast with probably among the best battery performances I have encountered. With the addition of a dedicated gaming mode, I must say gaming on mobile has never been better.
Some of the features in the ROM include:

7z is most recommended to extract the files
To install:
1. Backup your important data before anything else.
2. Boot into recovery and perform a "Factory Reset" - NB: Will wipe internal storage
For those who have TWRP already, just head to advanced wipe and tick Cache, Dalvik Cache, Data, and System then swipe to wipe. This can avoid you wiping your internal storage.
3. Reboot your Infinix NOTE 5 into fastboot/bootloader.
4. Extract the ROM files.
5. Open a Command Window in the directory containing the ROM files (The directory already has the necessary platform tools).
6. Type fastboot getvar all and press Enter then check for the current active slot on your device - it will be either _a or _b.
7. Copy and Paste one of the commands below on the command window based on your active slot identified in the previous step and hit Enter Key (Copy all of it as it is one command).
(a) Unified command for devices with _a as the current active slot.
fastboot erase boot_a && fastboot flash boot_a boot.emmc.win && fastboot erase system_a && fastboot flash system_a system_image.emmc.win && fastboot erase vendor_a && fastboot flash vendor_a vendor_image.emmc.win && fastboot reboot
(b) Unified command for devices with _b as the current active slot.
fastboot erase boot_b && fastboot flash boot_b boot.emmc.win && fastboot erase system_b && fastboot flash system_b system_image.emmc.win && fastboot erase vendor_b && fastboot flash vendor_b vendor_image.emmc.win && fastboot reboot
8. Wait for your device to boot and Enjoy!
Once the device has booted, please remember to set GoogleDialer and Messages as your default apps in settings to avoid a hidden CallUI. Also make sure you setup Magisk so as to have root working properly (You can flash Magisk v19.3 in TWRP to achieve the same and is the recommended method)
