anyone facing huge battery drain after update from OB2 to OB3? almost 30 percent during night
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Terrigible:
I see. That happened to me too. Remember to not mix and match kernels!
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] deedaleet:
It’s funny you should mention that. I’m on the latest iOS 12 beta for my old iPhone 7, and the touch latency performance is orders of magnitude better than the one plus on open beta.

I may end up staying on iOS for the time being as well, for this reason as well as the massive Bluetooth audio latency problems on my OP6 with games, even though android is far more exiting and capable for my needs.

exactly what i reported in feedback link. there is a huge touch latency completely visible. i hope it gets eradicated in future versions. it completely ruins the experience of this rom since its very stable

You could probably flash the magisk img for beta 3 from fastboot , boot into it, then install magisk via direct install and recover from the boot loop
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Devil Trigger:
Yeah, I flashed the modified boot.img and It booted. I will try now to install magisk direct from app.

I can only download the zip from Magisk Manager. I need to flash it through twrp only. So i think it will not work.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] texasaggie1:
I gave up on TWRP for now. You should Put the phone into fastboot mode. Flash the modified boot.img file. Boot into it. Then direct install magisk from the app. Profit.

If you go into fastboot mode will it still boot loop if you flash the boot.img for this ROM? What about with the modified boot img?
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Devil Trigger:
the only boot.img that work are the stock one and the modified one in this thread. The pre-rooted one doesn't work. So there is a problem with magisk.

Edit. It was some module. Cleaned up old magisk module via twrp and now it works :)
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] texasaggie1:
Yes that's normal. So forget about TWRP for now. Flash the modified boot image and boot into it.

After beta 1, 2 and 3 of Android Pie I'm back to Oreo. For me, it's night and day difference. The touch latency in Oreo is much lower and battery life I get 2 full hours more... on the first charge.

What really bother me was the touch latency. Battery life, I still could get one day of usage so it was somewhat fine.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] istperson:
I used the official, others used the Blue. Both work as flashable. You just can't boot the original images.

The modified boot image has Blue TWRP, but flashing offical worked as well.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] justen7723:
Well that was easy. I don't get what all the fuss is about. All I did was

Install beta 3

Install the latest Blu TWRP

Reboot recovery

Install magisk

Reboot to system

Done

Prior to installing beta 3 I was already using the latest Blu TWRP.

As far as all this touch "latency" and "lag" people are reporting I don't know what you're all talking about, beta's 1,2, and 3 have been very good for me. Hotspot also working fine for me on all 3 beta's.

Strange it works for some and not others, I never tested in on 5.1.x/ob1. [MENTION=8957402]thugslug[/MENTION] and I are both in Australia so maybe that's got something to do with it.

Hasn't worked on ob2 and ob3.

Ob3 is a clean install, I've tried on 2.4 and 5ghz... Haven't tried with security off.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] istperson:

[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mike02z:
Wrong thread.....
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] d3vilskid:
Hmm could be location based issue. As for security I used wpa2 psk.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] thugslug:
I haven't touched the WiFi bands or security, but I'll test changes to those today to see if I can get USB tethering and WiFi hotspot working.

I'm still totally stock OB3. Factory reset so it was starting from scratch. I get an IP address and connect to the hotspot or tether, but no pass through to the internet.

And just for the record, I cannot detect any problem whatsoever with touch lag or scrolling lag or whatever. Bluetooth works just fine too.

Funny how things work. I bet tethering works fine for all the people with lag issues. And no lag for me but hotspot and tethering issues. Go figure.

[MENTION=6143932]Funk Wizard[/MENTION] has not had a word to say on the USB tethering and hotspot issue, and I wish he would weigh in even if its to say he hasn't got a clue.

I should open an issue on the bug forum. Will do that today too. Would any kind of log help them look into this issue?

The only other thing that just doesn't work on OP6 on Australia's Telstra network is VoLTE. Neither myself nor [MENTION=3806315]jbm76[/MENTION] can get that working on the OP6, either stock or on renovate ice ROM. But it worked just fine on my old HTC 10 and LeeDroids ROM. There's some mismatch between the OP6 and Telstra's VoLTE config that has us baffled. Anyone with any clues on that - [MENTION=3806315]jbm76[/MENTION] and I would love to hear from you.....

[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] kage00:
Ob3 is running great for me, I haven't noticed any problems yet.

I came from ob2, I did this:

Wipe Data, Dalvic cache

Flashed ob3

Flashed again twrp bluespark

Rebooted to twrp

Flashed magisk17.1

Setup & let it boot up

Rebooted to twrp and flashed xXx no limits 2.9.2

Running nice and fast and snappy
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] XAB235:
exactly, thanks and for the understanding of the others...the TWRP for Beta3 is needed only if you need to root the phone from beta 3. Basically for booting the TWRP in order to flash the BlueSpark TWRP and so on.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] dante_nfs:
For people who say they don't have touch latency, lag is different from latency, many of you don't see it because you didn't used a device or rom without touch latency and you got used to it. It's there and it's a problem. And every one has it, some see it some can't. Latency is different from smoothness, yes it's completely smooth, for latency it's harder to describe, but it's about content not responding to your finger movements in realtime, but with a delay. Most of the time it shows itself in scrolling, actually you can see it in beta 2 , there was a bug that made latency issue much worse that you can see it.

Open contacts app and put your finger on a contacts name or anywhere on the screen for reference, scroll up and down with medium speed (drag up and down without putting your fingers up from the display) , see how much the name of the contact gets behind of your movement, remember it. Now put the device to charger, and test again like you did before, now you will see that the content is getting way behind your finger. This is latency. Sorry my English is not that good to put a well written sentences for this issue. This was working in beta 2 but in beta 3 the charger issue is less noticeable. But the procedure is the same just look how much content lefts behind of your finger in scrolling and general usage, use other devices and you will see the problem. This rom in its core has a latency problem and everyone has it. Again latency is different from smoothness and lag
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Funk Wizard:
USB Tethering and Hotspot issues are reported from my end, please open a bug report on the feedback section for the record. Thanks
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] masterchief_2001:
No one knows anything about the always on display?
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Kiruasan:
Maybe this app will help people to check the latency

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.spencerstudios.screentest

I just compared it with my one plus 3 ( on OMNI btw ) and it is pretty obvious that the OP6 is less responsive that the one plus 3 ...sorry I can't produce a video I don't have a third device to film it ...

If any one can make a comparaison with another device ( other than apple ...let's compare the comparable ...) Could be great !!

Ps : with stock kernel obviously ( but since no kernel is compatible with ob3, I forgot to mention it :))
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] kage00:
I'm not saying there's no touch latency on ob3. What I'm saying is that xXx no limits seems to fix it with the speed optimisations

xXx no limits also lets you enable always on display, it does show small bars around the notch though which is a bit annoying
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Paz9:
definitely notice latency issues
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] dante_nfs:
I think the problem is within framework too, not just the kernel, this app is good, people who want to test, drag your finger on the screen in multi touch test and see how much it lefts behind.

I compared it to other devices, it's completely obvious others are better, anyone with op6 can compare it to others and see the issue. My problem is that it seems they don't have the willing to resolve the problem. If it continues to be like this, this will be my last oneplus device.

Successfully flashed beta 3 and booting just fine. Then, when I installed twrp it keeps rebooting to this Qualcomm Crashdump Mode. I can't get ANY twrp versions to load. I can reboot to the OS as needed, but can't load twrp for the life of me. Any help please, anyone?
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] anupsnair:
How about trying BlueSpark TWRP
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ker~Man:
I tried that one. I install the recovery by using the command in Fastboot "fastboot boot twrp.img," correct? Every time I do that (as I usually do) it goes to that Crashdump screen... Only since on the beta. Thanks for your help though.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] anupsnair:
Try fastboot flash boot xxxx.img ( in my case I used bluspark. So it would be fastboot flash boot beta3_patched_boot.img)
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ankit Chahar:
Use fastboot flash boot boot_ob3.img file... I don't remember the exact name but it's there in this thread. Then you'll be able to run the BluSpark recovery.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ker~Man:
I just did this, but it stays in fastboot mode. Must I flash something else?
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Batfink33:
There's no way that Rom can help touch latency as we don't have access to the panel drivers. Your most probably only thinking it does therefore its placebo.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] iSirCasm:
You mean to say if I flash the patched boot img it will automatically incorporate BluSpark recovery along with Magisk or do I have to first flash the patched boot img and then flash twrp the usual way?
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] anupsnair:
Just flash using that command and then boot into twrp right after flashing. ( Use the volume keys in fastboot and select reboot recovery )

Then u can flash the latest magisk.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ankit Chahar:
Then from fastboot mode go into the recovery. You'll have the BluSpark recovery. Then install the installer zip of the recovery and magisk if you want it.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] iSirCasm:
Hi, I am a little confused. If I flash this modified boot img, would I get twrp recovery automatically, or do I have to flash twrp through fastboot after flashing the modified boot img?

Thank you so much. One more request, I am unable to find the exact modded boot img you are talking about I am confused here. Can you provide me the link?

[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] dante_nfs:
This is a beta, and we can not make a decision based on this, since all of this can be resolved with just one update. But if this goes to stable, I'm done, and i will be vocal about it and will inform others to not buy a OP device again, speed is not JUST opening some apps faster than the others! It's not JUST winning the speed tests! It's about user experience which touching the display is the first thing every user does and OP many times doesn't care about it, they just give the user the placebo of being fast by animation, and opening speed, the user experience is much more than that, and many of this comes from good(low) latency and the OS being responsive. Pete siad many times in interviews that we were using ios devices and said to ourselves why not having an android equivalent! So we created oneplus, i hope they see how much attention apple has to this kind of details like latency and UX overall! But it seems they don't!. to users who are gonna say what lag! I don't have touch lag! Again, please people inform yourself about what is latency, what is lag, and what is jitter, and what is smoothness! They are all different, the problem is there and like many times i wrote how to test just test and see it. Or use a device without this problem and compare it to your OP
