Yup.. I get it. I'm a medical student.. been busy lately.. and trying to catch up with all that I've missed at some part of the day. So this is not an excuse.. it's subjective. The reason for me to raise this point is to question about why to take an opportunity to turn everything into a correction!? The thing I hate the most about the forums is not about the ones who ask for ETAs or people like me who ask for links but the response people give. Like what's the deal.. why can't you ignore if you don't want to help? Why do you want to spread negativity by bashing someone. Would I/or someone else personally tag you asking for anything? No! You either help or leave it. Let them learn by themselves. As I've told you I try to catch up with the stuff in XDA and all I see is someone asking for ETAs and 3-4 people ready to bash him up. Like Man.. are you happy and comfortable spreading that much amount of negativity? Of course I'm familiar with XDA rules and know that those guys shouldn't be asking for ETAs.. but does it mention anywhere that whenever someone does someone like that the other loyal XDA members should take their precious time to teach that guy a lesson? These forums are having less helps and more of "you should be doing this" "you shouldn't be doing that"

Forums are there to help, not to be constantly reminded by what I should be doing and what I shouldn't be doing. Peace!
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] zipalign:
I can understand your point of view, mate.

I really do.

but I think there's an important detail you are not focusing like it should be.

I remember that things like this one [people telling other people to use the search function] was less frequent in the XDA's good old times, when we were thousand people less than now, and XDA was a developers' sharing point and not so crowded.

then Android devices became more popular, and people started gathering here, opening their account [even if the major of them wasn't a developer, but just a user], and started writing in forums marked as "android development" like a casual chat forum.

this is the major issue, and the detail you are missing.

this thread is opened under "android development" section.

I don't say you can't write a question, but thread like this one should be clean and simple, with just few topics:

- bug reports [with logcat]

- questions about the ROM itself

- posts that really help the developer to maintain his work and other users to solve their issues

asking something which is so popular like the .zip of a stock firmware is seen as a "chat" subforum, not a development one.

so, if I agree with you that is annoying reading posts like do a search before posting, is also annoying seeing answers like that in a development thread.

today I am in a kind mood, so I provided the link you asked for, just adding a reminder to search before posting.

but I don't want to sound rude or angry. it's just that I miss the old times when development section [and XDA and Android in general] was populated by real developers and contributors.

now it's so often confused with a Q&A thread.

and the most confusing thing, is that we do have a sub-forum like this! where you can find and ask for any help regarding your phone in general [like flashing stock firmwares, for example].
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Subray:
It's not that I don't understand you it's just a matter of opinion.. I also do what you said.. And ignore a lot of them.. But like you said it your self.. There's less help and more people always asking for eta's and reporting the same known bugs.. And worse. They don't even read how to post a bug report..

So unfortunately yeah.. We have to be remind them of the rules.

I am thinking more of the negativity that the OP gets with those posts.. And if we do what you say and ignore them then think of what that would mean for the OP.. If I wore the OP I would stop developing if no one cared about respecting me..

I won't go any further than this post.. I hope you get the why we do it.. But I can't and won't try to change you.

Cheers
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] pops106:
I see both sides and I know this is certainly not the responsibility of the Dev but I guess some stuff like this could be covered off by sticking the link in the first post with the ROM as a catch all.

Just a thought
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Subray:
Nope cause this has nothing to do with this ROM
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] pops106:
When I have posted ROMs I always (think anyway) posted a link for the newest twrp just to keep the thread clean from people coming along with issues.

This could be extended to firmware.

But we shouldn't be talking about this in this thread anyway so my 2 cents/pence spent.
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] kavee.gauravjoshi:
Kthxbye
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Hosh Jk:
I do understand what y'all trying to say. Even I do not further want to extend this. There are some users who respond to the ETAs in a short and polite way and there ends the case. But what I feel is wrong is when I see few people taking the opportunity going against that guy who asked for ETA just to show all the motives they have regarding XDA which I feel looks a lot like show off and that's not bad. But what I feel is that is not necessary to debate for something that's there to finish off with a simple short message. Like when I asked for the link and when the first person asked me to search.. I got it.. i understood it, it's simple and plain. I searched for it.

But why did another 2 members respond to it mentioning what I should be doing? Like there's no point right! [MENTION=4831414]zipalign[/MENTION] said he's feeling bad cause XDA right now is having more questions and not much developmental conversations. But don't you think when 3-4 people respond to one person, like how it happened with me would do anything better? Don't you think it's becoming a forum more of the rules and all rather than the actual development. I hope you understand me.

As XDA senior members we all should try to close the matter in a simple way rather than trying to trigger the emotions of the other individual by forcing our motives on them. I don't think that it's necessary for the rest 2-3 members to join the matter when it's closed in the first place itself. But in case the guy (who asks for ETAs, or in this case someone like me) doesn't understand in the first time and further complicates .. then I think it's fine to teach him a lesson.

Let's keep the forums simple and clean. That's all I meant. I do not intend to hurt anyone or correct anyone. I just think the OP would feel bad reading all our debates. That's all.
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Shreesha.Murthy:
How do you guys manage to write such lengthy posts? Teach me too xD

Anyways, no need to defend your actions or saying you were caught up with something. "Search before asking/posting" is XDA's basic rule. If you don't follow that, be prepared to be pointed out the same. No matter the excuses. Rules are rules, respect them. It's not like that firmware zip was hidden or something. No need to attack the one who is pointing it out for you. I don't want this discussion to go on. EOD

I'm seeing so many bug reports but no one is taking proper approach. I can't be replying to everyone asking for logcat. It's understood. If your post is unanswered or ignored it's probably you missing vital stuff in there. I've started working on LOS 15.1 and it should be ready very soon. Screw 8.0, it's a thing of past. Good stuff coming up :cool:
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Ashik01964:
Hey thanks for ur effort for us. I really appreciate that.

I m glad that u r working on 15. 1. I m struggling with picture n picture mode in YouTube. The process is very confusing for me please bring that in 15.1 in a easy way. I don't know much about karnel or what it does or magisk or how to use that. It's very confusing. Please please bring that mode in a easy way so that I can use that without any problem. Thanks again man for ur effort.

Firstly no need to quote the full post or not required when u immediately reply next cause its understood...

Again, seems like u haven't read the post correctly or you are a selective reader....

Let me help u... type Pip in the search option press go enter or whatever..
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Subray:
PiP in YouTube is a payed service. There's nothing Shreesha can do about that.

This is not the proper thread to talk about YouTube mod but go to this thread and ask for help. (i'am also there) it's not complicated to install it.

https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/magisk-iytbp-youtube-vanced-t3712097

Has for having magisk/superSU better get your reading done on what it means to have a rooted device. There very simple to install either of them. Just download it and flash thru recovery.

If you want the YouTube mod better go with magisk.
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] saravan123:

pip mode doesnt work on youtube it only works on youtube red, fb, and few other apps

if you desperatly needed pip on youtube you can try 3rd party apps

Disable LCD Display throttle

[MENTION=7131520]Shreesha.Murthy[/MENTION]

is there any way to stop the display from dimming when brightness is at 100% by changing thermal config and if so could you change it because when device gets warm the display throttles and CAF based rom has fixed this issue because I like my display at 100% backlit with no dimming thanks.
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] jainpritesh:
Waiting for next build i appreciate your effort but i think we can't use camera when mostly mobile user need
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] quegee:
Alpha is Alpha... W8 for Omega :o
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] CertifiedBlyndGuy:
This is a necessary evil as often the display brightness can lead to throttling and consume a lot of power.

I however have fixed throttling altogether in my kernel by using a slight underclock: https://github.com/CertifiedBlyndGuy/zippy-msm8994/commits/zippy/drivers/cpufreq/qcom-cpufreq.c

In my tests it does impact benchmarks but that's really it. Day to day, it's perfect.
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] OnePlus Two:
[MENTION=5900207]CertifiedBlyndGuy[/MENTION]

Its annoying because when watching movies at full brightness it dims and annoys me because I cannot see all the detail then. Is there a way to disable LCD throttle without flashing kernels etc ?
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Shreesha.Murthy:
Just disable adaptive brightness?
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] OnePlus Two:
[MENTION=7131520]Shreesha.Murthy[/MENTION]

It still throttles if device gets slightly warm and another rom called XOS changed the LCD thermal config to stop display from dimming when warm and works like a treat
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] CertifiedBlyndGuy:
That doesn't sound like a good idea to me
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Shreesha.Murthy:
Definitely. Throttling is present for something good and just for an individual, the process shouldn't be compromised.
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] OnePlus Two:
[MENTION=7131520]Shreesha.Murthy[/MENTION]

I unterstand. Could you Make me a flashable thermal config zip that disables the throttling so you don't have to change it for everyone else ?
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] CertifiedBlyndGuy:
Agreed. Its bad enough that some devices have the a57s die due to heat.

I will say though... The thermal framework on the 2 could use some work. I've got Sultans driver working pretty well and it rarely overheats.

Haven't touched O yet due to time constraints and the fact that I'd like to bring it up myself but nice job.

You are amazing ?. Awesome ...
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] OnePlus Two:
[MENTION=7131520]Shreesha.Murthy[/MENTION]

I deleted the thermal.conf from /system/etc will that disable throttling?
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] pranky.dhyani:
Seems Camera, alert slider and gestures are fixed. Great job man.

Also please look into hotspot and lockscreen notification issue. When are you planning to release the new build:o
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Shreesha.Murthy:
Ok people, wanted to get opinions on certain things and also summary of updates

Update:

- Added FP wrapper and reduced FP delay

- kernel updates and inclusion of KCAL and other great stuff

- Alert Slider fixed

- Offline gestures work as intended

- Camera working partially

- Flashlight works

- Double Tap 2 wake can be enabled from KA

- Minor bug fixes

State of camera:

Currently camera is little buggy. I mean you can capture picture on both front and back sensors but video recording is broken. This is source related(fw/av) and should be fixed only when the required patches get updated.

Sole purpose of me informing you all about current situation is that I plan on taking break for few days and enjoy csgo and other stuff which I'm missing from few days

So this means that I'm left with two options

1. Release a build in current state and call it 3rd Alpha build

2. Take break and come back later to fix remaining issues and directly bumping it to 1st Beta

As mentioned, I'm just asking for opinions and this is not a poll

I hope I've made things clear. Read carefully twice/thrice before asking/requesting something.

Thank you :)
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] sunnynayak:
Drop that update, i know many of us were waiting for camera and though partial i will take the leap. Appreciate your time and effort to make this happen.
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] fabiotasa2:
you can release 3rd alpha, take a break, and when you consider fix remaining issues, its your time and you should enjoy.

ps: i´m watching eleague match Faze clan vs na´vi :laugh::laugh:
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] zxaryo:
Do what's most comfortable for you.

Having the third alpha would be nice since video bug is not a big problem for most. (Don't build if its gonna take a lot of time to compile)

Thanks again.

Hello shreesha.. download link is down..can you plz share alternate link to download ROM
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] jukyO:
Pixel ROM installed.

All good so far.

Noticed that phone slows down once going below 25%....and it slows down even more as percentage goes down.

@op,

Is that a feature or a bug in kernel?

Using stock one.
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] yarach:
Agree with the OP. Thanks for your support! I have no money for a new phone, and those updates you make, make the OP2 feel brand new everytime. I honestly did not think this phone would ever receive an Oreo rom working great this fast.

Hey,

I run the latest build and how do I get the Dark theme like the one in the screenshot?
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] madmadhav:
As mentioned in the rules, please do search the thread for similar points before posting a new reply.

You could find in the first 3-4 pages of this thread as op mentioned, it's a substratum the called Sai's Oreo.
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] zipalign:
install substratum theme engine and apply your favourite dark theme.

but most of all, search for "dark theme" in this thread and you'll find out rainbows!

You can flash before or after, do it before if you haven't flashed the ROM yet.

It is only needed if you haven't had the OOS 3.6.1 OS on before

Both the links - for LOS and Pixel Experience are working fine. Open XDA in browser and try.

---------- Post added at 03:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:21 AM ----------

I don't think that's a feature. Might be some kernel settings... So if you are aware about various kernel settings, try any kernel auditor app to modify them or may be try bluebolt kernel to see if the same behaviour persists.

---------- Post added at 03:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:25 AM ----------

This is something I have understood about firmware. Technically I might be wrong. But I am sharing my experience about using right firmware.

The advantage of flashing latest firmware is basically incorporate changes done by manufacturer (OEM) related with modem, radio or things related with mobile network connectivity.

E.g. 3.6.1 came out while I was on N ROMs. I was using 3.5.8 then. So I flashed the latest firmware zip. And to my surprise, my connectivity w.r.t network strength, internet connectivity, call reception went down instead of improving. So I went back to 3.5.8.

Then came first alpha Oreo ROM by Shreesha. I flashed it. Note that I was still on older firmware 3.5.8. but now, with the same firmware which was giving me good network connectivity on N ROM, started giving me comparatively poor connectivity on O. So I said let me try 3.6.1. and voila, network connectivity went back to normal.

So my personal conclusion is - latest firmware, 3.6.1 works perfectly well with Oreo ROMs, than the previous firmwares. That's why your might need it while using Pixel Experience or any other Oreo ROM

Your second part of question is answered already. It doesn't matter when you flash firmware - before or after or while using the ROM.

Note: this was my personal experience and others might have had diffrent one.

DT2W and OnePlus Gestures are not working on my device, no matter what I do. Tried Delight and Lineage Rom, BB ane Stock Kernals, Tried enabling from Kernal Auditor... Nothing helps.

Is it just me / a hardware specific issue, or others also face this?
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Subray:
All work for me so it's not a ROM issue. Nandroid backup.. Flash stock ROM and see if it works. Don't know if the gestures require any kind of specific hardware.. I have my doubts.
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] sameer507:
Flash BB Kernel.

And disable BCL option in Bluebolt app.

Pixel ROM is more stable with BB kernel and very good battery backup.

Hi Guys,

I am new here and I appreciate all your hard work for creating ROM for out old phones, great job!

I just installed the pixel ROM to my one plus two, clean flash, I installed magisk version 14.4 and the OOS_3.6.1 firmware. Everything installed correctly but I noticed that the GUI for the OS is slow, there is some delay from opening apps, scrolling down from the main screen, even unlocking the phone.

My hardware buttons work fine and home button as well.

Has anybody had this issue, the slowness/lag in the GUI?

Thanks,!
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Subray:
I had lag issues on first installation. Had to clean flash a 2nd time. Then it was normal. And I only flashed magisk after 1st boot so I advise you to only install magisk after first boot and 1st configuration.
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] kavee.gauravjoshi:
Even i had similar experience. I flashed bluebolt kernel to resolve it.
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] neelsolanki:
m also facing this sometime.. wait till next update !
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Harish Diesel:
+1!

Instead of reboot, just go to Mobile Network, Network Operators and Select Search Networks.

After a while you'll get bunch of available networks, just select anyone and you'll end up in network error and after select choose automatically! just that and you'll get the data back:)

Had this strange problem today with Pixel Experience. Reflashed the rom because I wanted to have the stock kernel back. Then the phone did not want to reboot. I get the OnePlus logo, and then the screen remains black. I have also lost all my data on the internal storage for some reason. Had to completely revert to stock OOS. And still after that I am unable to install Pixel Experience again. The black screen issue persists. The strange thing I have flashed Pixel Experience last week without any problems. Flashing LOS15 gives no problems though. It onluy happens with Pixel Experience. Any ideas on what this could be?
