[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] :
No man, Im just pointing it out ~ I develop my own kernel for Marlin, so unlikely that I'm not going to be cloning yours to do that bit of work for you, I have enough on my plate -> It's your responsibility as someone who is providing a Rom and kernel to other users....

You should make staying up-to-date with Security patches / kernel patches every month a priority. there are bug fixes and security fixes for things like CVEs ~ not keeping up-to-date can put users at risk....

LTS = Long Term Stable Release - upstream linux updates to your kernel. this also serves the same purpose, as above (google has been slack on this, but that's changing). Some info on how to set yourself up for LTS; https://xdaforums.com/android/software-hacking/reference-how-to-upstream-android-kernel-t3626913

Also, another important note / advice on providing ROMs to people. Please make sure that you are properly signing your builds (signature signing). ref: https://source.android.com/devices/tech/ota/sign_builds .... I'm not sure how OmniRom does things; if they have their own keys that you can use, but if you are using testkeys from the SDK - that's a bad idea. ~ as your system/platform apps would be signed with publicly known/available keys. That breaks an important layer of Android's security model.

Long Term Support
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] :
thanks Nick - small detail - not enough coffee. lol ;)
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] hardslog:
I figured you were referring to long term support but never heard that terms of android kernels before.

Anyway the homebuilds are likely signed using test keys. When omni has the Jenkins server up and running it has its own keys.

Also I'd like to respectfully disagree with your statement on making sure I keep up to date and that's it's all things I MUST do.

Firstly this is a beta. When we get the weeklies rolling I'll keep on top of CVEs etc.

Secondly if people don't like the security of this ROM I don't really care. I'm not forcing anyone to flash it. This is an open source project for anyone to contribute. It is not my job to be trying to make sure I develop things and merge patches the minute they become available. In fact none of this is my job.

I'll merge security patches when I have time. And if someone wants to add PRs to get them in quicker they are welcome to do so. But if someone has the means to help out but only wants to criticize then please take discussions elsewhere. Not saying this to anyone in particular, but as a generality, as nine you are making valid statemtents.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] :
All android kernels are (supposed to be) based on LTS. Vendors just don't end up patching them fast, if at all. not a good thing.

#1 - I wasn't criticizing, in fact; I said it was great to see some Oreo rom development Happening... What I did was; pointed out that your kernel isn't up to date (by a month, not a minute) * That's not a criticism, it's just a fact.... && I made some suggestions on how to rectify that and provided you with some additional potentially useful information on LTS ~ thinking it may be helpful to you...

I also mentioned the signature signing because in the past I've seen ROMs on XDA haven't been signed properly - because the people who built them skipped that important step or didn't know any better. (not implying you, but; you would know 100% -> one requires generating your own private keys, one doesn't).

#2 - I never said you "MUST" do anything. Please go back and re-read what I actually wrote... I suggested that you probably *should* merge the monthly patches from Google and suggested possibly making use of LTS, As something that *should* be a priority (not *must* be). Monthly patches and LTS exist for a reason.... But yes; At the end of the day, your right ~ It's entirely your choice..... It's also one of the reasons, why I tend to avoid flashing custom roms -> you have zero idea whether the people cooking them up have actually done things properly (again, not talking about you, just a general statement).

#3 - I gave you a valid reason why I wouldn't be doing a pull request; I'm working on my own kernel, I'm busy && It's not my responsibility. What IS my responsibility to make sure that any kernel that I release IS patched and up-to-date. *It doesn't matter that it's not my job; I'm putting it out there for other people to use on their device; which typically contain loads of personal info, mobile banking, accounts, contacts, etc... So even with a disclaimer added; I still put in the extra effort. Because it's important.

Regardless, the whole thing of getting up-to-date and even merging LTS (if you chose to do so) takes maybe 10min. ~ not exactly something that you need me or anyone else to do for you or a pull request for. ~ It would take me longer to fork/grab your sources, pull in all of the commits and do a pull request... See why I'm not doing it now? Anyway, good luck with your ROM.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] hardslog:
You aren't telling me anything that I don't already know :) but thanks for the input anyway as it is good topic for discussion.

You'd think that with this being a google device on AOSP that developing for it would be easy, which certainly isn't the case. There was a lot of bull%##! going on with this device which has caused people to have difficulty getting anything going for it.

Just for info though when the weeklies come out for Omni they are very quick to patch security flaws. The next question though is to see if we can get opendelta working on this device with its weirdo A/B partition scheme :eek:
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] :
one would hope that it would be easy to develop for due to aosp support, but yeah. the concensus seems to be that is not the case...mol.... however, if u look at Copperheados; that's one main developer; he's had their OS working nicely and that's also with a locked bootloader and system updates coming from their servers, etc...

It's a given that strncat (cos Dev) is a smart dude.... but yeah; it demonstrates that it's very doable... if one core Dev can pull it off, a community of devs on xyz ROM should be able to, as well....

BTW, I'm curious, is odexing working on your ROM?

It much. The proximity sensor has to be unblocked to turn on. In fact, the actual "Always-On" feature doesn't work properly (at least for me). For now, it only works to show the AOD screen for a few seconds when picked up or taken out of your pocket.

I installed HTC Doze on HTC U11 (BS_US001) and it does not function at all.

[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] tal_sarid:
No, the truth is still that the lack of AOD is hardware-related, even if it can be installed by software.

Probably the SLCD5 is not efficiency enough for AOD and your battery will suffer for this.

Moreover, it might damage your screen in a long term use.

Use with caution at your own risk!

---------- Post added at 09:14 ---------- Previous post was at 09:10 ----------

This is because the default settings for the apk is Ambient Display and not Always-On Display.

I think it works as it should. I prefer it that way, the SLCD5 is not going to behave well in the long term with AOD, probably..
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] AarSyl:
Yes, I know. I didn't feel the need to say it, but thank you. Less typing for me. :silly: Any app will work by its default settings if you can't/don't customize it.

The great thing is, this HTC-implemented raise to wake function is highly likely using the snapdragon on-board DSP to monitor phone motion saving lots of power, yet third-party app is using CPU to ensure cross-device compatibility.

you can see AOD full working whit setting for costumize in MaximusHD 3.0.0 costum rom for htc u11, is only software e libraries exclusive facture for Oreo no special screen need or mistery hardware component.
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] tal_sarid:
You don't hear me.

If it can be activated by software doesn't mean the screen is fine with it efficiency-wise or survivability-wise.

There is a reason why HTC dropped it from the U11, they don't usually do that.

For example , the minimum brightness of the U11 display is far too high for efficient AOD.

Also, there might be screen issues after a long time of using AOD cause the screen is lit all that time and HTC probably didn't check the display on such scenario.

Like I said, I would not recommend using AOD at all with the U11 but everyone can make their own choices. Do yours at your own risk.

On the other hand, Smart Display on pickup only is far more safe to use with the U11 and it can be also installed easily with an apk on unrooted Oreo stock rom. :D

[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] 5m4r7ph0n36uru:
They need AOD panel drivers implemented into the kernel. As the U11 panel never was intended to work as AOD the drivers in Kernel are missing and AOD won't work on Sense-based ROMs. Can't speak for AOSP based ROMs though. At the end on a Sense based ROM only running it on motion detection will work. Little benefit is the motion detection works flawless and uses less battery on an LCD than AOD would do.

1) I've never used an iPhone anything and I never will. I hate Apple crap with a passion. Their phones especially are YEARS behind Androids in features, specs. They just got Qi wireless charging this year (Android has had it since 2012) and apparently still can't figure out QHD 1440p (all top tier Android have had it since late 2014). They were even years behind just getting regular 720p/1080p resolution. Apple can only do IP67 WITHOUT a headset jack, while LG/Samsung have IP68 WITH a headset jack. Apple's engineers are just incompetent. On the iPhone 4 they gave users an external metal band antenna without any insulation (the infamous Grip of Death), then tried to lie about it. Any competent communications engineer knows you need insulation if you are going to touch the various antennas with your bare hands. Don't get me started.

2) On all my Android phones, I use the camera in WhatsApp, Facebook just fine. Not sure what you are doing wrong? You take a picture and choose it from the Gallery to upload to the app. Doesn't matter which of the dual cameras you use, the pictures are there in the Gallery. Choose the picture you want from the Gallery.

And why is camera quality "horrible" for you? I don't understand.

3) Just a suggestion... next time, please just open a regular thread. Please, don't choose this "Q&A" format again. ;) It's a pain to reply.
