What is the preferred way to convert to treble? By flashing the 8/10 build of Lineage 15.1?
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] piet8stevens:
Imho yes.

Benefits: selinux works, encryption works, leaves data size intact, no PC required.

is there any other warming problem than [MENTION=5334294]raystef66[/MENTION] ?
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] eaponte23:
After the first boot it was a little warm, seems to have settled down after a few hours. Just restored my apps so I haven't put it thru its pace yet. Its running cool now though. Haven't had to charge it yet I'll post if its warm then.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Oki:
Download the PARTY tool to manage the creation / removal of the vendor partition from within any TWRP. Just use the first choice in each option and you will have your device ready to rock. Keep it handy, it can also remove the vendor partition to be able to roll back and flash the previous ROM you had.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] stevecaboose:
What vendor partition size do we need for this ROM?

After a few hours I can only say that I am impressed by the stand by battery use. About 1.1%/h. The standard screen on use is higher than LOS 15.1, but I haven't worked on it so I expect some improvements. I left it for an hour so It could prepare the ART cache. Then I did some tests and afterwards I installed GApps. After that I left then for another hour so it could complete the ART cache for those apps.

I have noticed some annoying problems during the first test:

1. Dark theme not working

2. No way to configure screen DPI.

3. Broken internet browser

4. Broken App installer.

The Gapps suggested in the OP are good, but these GApps are working great. I can say that 9.0, Micro, ARM64 work great in this release.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] raystef66:
Oki, first of thnx for the PARTYtime :good:

Just asking, as I had problems with heating, do you notice any warming up ? I also left it to ease down but no luck there eiher. I encountered the same heating as on PPR1 does. I flashed a zillion times and different roms and I could only notice it here and on PPR1.

Like I said, apart from warming up it ran smooth and some major issues were fixed which is encouraging.

Forgot that to mention too : browser not working, could not install any other camera as on PPR1 Gcam worked perfect.

Anyway, gonna try a new flash later on to see if it CAN settle down.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Oki:
Have you tested it with other bootstack? I don't remember what was the last one I used. But it is the B12 from NFound or the A7LOS. It was working good here except for those issues. It is a good ROM with most of the things already working. Really impressive for a first realease.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] raystef66:
Was planning to test further on other bootstack which could be the only issue I can think of. Let you know...
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] h3ndrik:
out of curiosity: is the provided twrp 3.2.3-0 the official one from twrp.me? (md5sum is different.)

and why does it fail to decrypt my phone? 3.2.1-8_axon7-TREBLE works fine. is this a known bug or something wrong with my setup?
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] blu3wh0:
So I spent about a day with this build, and so far it is running great aside from a few caveats:

1. Adaptive brightness seems to be a problem, as it keeps increasing brightness above the level I'm telling it that I prefer. This was not an issue in LOS 15.1.

2. GCam does not function at all, it was mostly fine in 15.1. I'm guessing the camera that it comes with functions more or less, but I would prefer GCam.

3. Initial boot with the GApps in OP did cause some issues as Google Play Services kept crashing. Connecting to Wifi and rebooting allowed it to update and start properly for login.

4. Did initially heat up for the first hour or so, but this should be expected. I haven't noticed any problems since then.

5. Did not try the browser that this comes with, but Chrome works without a problem. (In regards to the above comment)

6. No problems installing apps either from any source.

7. Some Google Play Store apps were not able to be installed until I flashed Magisk (such as Netflix).

8. Google Play Store is uncertified, but this doesn't seem to cause any issues.

9. Some features appear to be missing, as mentioned in OP. Specifically, I miss the advanced restart options.

10. Expanding the notification bar in landscape seems to bring the bottom edge offscreen (the settings button). I'm not sure if this is the way it's supposed to be.

11. Hi-res audio playback with Poweramp does not work anymore (it did in LOS15.1). Whenever you turn it on, the volume up and down appears to link media and cast volume (?), although I'm not sure what this means. If hi-res is disabled, audio playback works with just the media volume being adjusted.

Thank you for quickly getting us to Android Pie!
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] WesTD:
so is it worth to use daily driver? will you restore your old rom or keep going on pie?
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] blu3wh0:
I'm going to continue using this as my daily driver, most of my "problems" are not critical. All critical functions (phone, SMS/MMS, Wifi, LTE, GPS, FP, speakers, BT, aux, etc.) are working as expected. The biggest annoyance though is getting Adaptive Brightness to cooperate, so I might turn it off if it doesn't get better. I also haven't encrypted my phone, but I will do that when I get a chance as this is important for me.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] piet8stevens:
It is known you need 3.2.1-8-TREBLE if you want encryption. And it is also known that then you lose adb access.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] bornlivedie:
Auto brightness works fine and the algorithm was changed by Google in Pie. Nothing out of the ordinary there.

I'm sure the other points are just design features of Pie and nothing wrong with this build.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] smakdonw:
Migh be since I haven't tested any other pie devices.

In regards to auto brightness that setting is missing completely for me.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Thearrimcx:
In the last build autobrightness is disappeared. There is not the option to enable it in settings
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] mtyler7807:
Thanks for the info. I don't know if I have that year of penny around me so I'll go in the shop and get a thermaltake processor heat sink and check the width of one of the fins. If it is big enough I'll cut it off and use that.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] bornlivedie:
Oh right, I did not flash it because of the excessive list of issues.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] ibphantom:
Here's two more pictures of battery drain.

This occurs on both the stock kernel and ShwiftyV4, so I have reason to believe that it's an audio/DAC, Screen on/off/overlay issue.

If I can provide more details in any way, let me know how.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Choose an username...:
[MENTION=5586933]Masterjuggler[/MENTION] actually measured the gap and used copper sheet instead. The thing is, the space is too variable, for example aftee changing my phone's screen the space was a lot smaller. Once you put the copper piece there, you can put the motherboard upon it and push very slightly, if the whole mobo doesn't sit perfectly on the screen then you'll be in trouble if you fasten it with the screws. Always be on the safer side and sand it down slightly more than the actual gap size, you don't wanna know why i tell you this :silly:
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Masterjuggler:
[MENTION=2089861]mtyler7807[/MENTION] - Yeah, so I did a little experimenting and decided a good size in my case was 0.75mm (measured with a micrometer). I made it so it was about 0.01mm thicker than the gap so the mobo would put slight pressure on it and the thermal paste without flexing much.

I took a section of copper pipe, slit it open, and tapped it to thickness with a hammer and anvil. Copper moves very easily under a hammer, doesn't take much. Then I sanded it to 2000 grit I think, might have gone up to 2500.

It helps to make a little sanding jig. I just took a small piece of plywood and poked some screws through it about 0.5mm to grab the sides of the copper shim so you done grind your fingers. Make sure the paper is against a flat surface like glass or granite. A knife sharpening stone also works. The shiner the copper surface the better.

What I found was that the cpu maintained about the same max temp under constant load, but took longer to get there and dissipated it much more quickly when the load was removed.

You have to remember the heat pipe doesn't actually go anywhere. It's more of a heat reservoir than anything, just gives it more thermal mass.

Hey [MENTION=5027381]OrdenKrieger[/MENTION] [MENTION=4911249]Unjustified Dev[/MENTION] we've been looking at the top command and we're deffo sure that there's still something very wrong with audio. Memory leak seems fixed now, but CPU usage is still excessively high, with audioserver using 40-50% or more. did you know about this already?
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] paketjabbe:
Don't rush him. We need a good stable rom. So be patient.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Choose an username...:
with that thinking then we should not report bugs and let the devs just find them by themselves

Or even worse, let them think that it is fixed while it is not
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Arbelzapf:
I think that bug report was just used as an example why rushing the dev is not a good idea as long as there are actual issues to be fixed.

At least that's one way to interpret it
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Choose an username...:
what do you mean?

if you're talking about the broken audio, they said that they fixed it some time ago. new testing showed that it was not fixed. ergo, report the bug.

If that's rushing for you guys then i don't know what to tell you, keep using broken stuff and don't even report bugs if that's okay with you
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Masterjuggler:
This audio bug causes between 50-75% constant cpu load whenever audio is played through the AUX, which severely impacts battery and performance. This is a major bug that affects everyone, regardless of the app used or phone model. I'd call that an actual issue to be fixed.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Dodgexander:
Apart from those that play audio via Bluetooth or the phone speakers. Wanna rush dev? Donate a lump sum :svetius:
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Choose an username...:
okay, that's it. Think what you want, but that's 100% nfound thinking. We found a bug, the devs fixed it partially. We found that it was still sorta there, so we report it again. (Because that's what you usually do when you find a bug). Do they owe us anything? No, but if they are making a ROM they surely want to know what is broken... ?

Where did any of us rush the devs?

Plus it's not like we're asking for Volte or whatever. This bug affects the main public of this device (namely, whoever uses the DAC or at least just uses wired headphones) and the devs should know that it's there. Let them fix it whenever they want to, I agree to that and never thought differently. But leaving a bug undisclosed just because people think that i'm bothering the devs (that's right, they didn't complain about my bug report) is as stupid as it can be.

Now, let's just delete this pointless thing of a conversation and move on. The bug report is a normal bug report and it stays there, everything else is just whining
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Arbelzapf:
I never meant to imply any of that. I wanted to clear up what looked like a communication error and it seems I created an even bigger one. Let's all calm down.

I just thought that [MENTION=8189404]paketjabbe[/MENTION] maybe used his first post quote as a means to underline his argument about the second post quote : we should wait until the bugs are fixed..
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Dodgexander:
Sorry! Never meant to cause offense!! Never insinuated you were rushing dev. Only that it only applies to wired (probably not even phone calls using 4961 but media using 4490) and wanted to make sure it was reported with this in mind because it helps narrow down issue.

If we don't give all details then the report is made harder no?

Rushing dev was a tongue-in-cheek comment aimed at [MENTION=4513873]PacketJ[/MENTION]abbe. It's true. You wanna rush him then you can donate a lump sum! As you said already they do this for free after all.

If you have the latest NFound-TWRP, find 'Del Inscription' and it'll remove that.

[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] ibphantom:
I think what you need to do is flash the bootloader, then 'Del Inscription' then Unlock PW or Unlock Google(I can't remember which does what), clear cache and dalvik, reboot and flash your ROM if you're going clean. I'm not sure if you have to do clean flash or not for it to work without locking you out.

Try this too.

New bug to report in latest 09.09 build:

I am used to put my phone to Airplane mode during night. But now each morning when I turn off Airplane mode phone does not register to network. It is fixed only by full restart.

Same issue with network registration I noticed also while going to another country (phone registered ok to roaming network) and when I returned home, phone would not register to network. Restart fixes.

RIL related problem [MENTION=5027381]OrdenKrieger[/MENTION]?

Would be great if anyone else can confirm if this can be reproduced or I am the only one seeing this issue. I have the G version on stock kernel with Magisk 17.1.

Many many thanks [MENTION=5027381]OrdenKrieger[/MENTION] for the new Update! :good: Up to now everything works fine and smooth!

The only one Problem I recognized is the mentioned problem with the network reconnection after turning off the airplane mode (as mentioned in the last posts). I was on build 21/08/2018 before and there wasn't this problem. In my case only a full restart helps.

But I don't want to bother you - I'm so glad with your Updates :fingers-crossed:

[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] OrdenKrieger:
Just for everyone to know. If you experience a higher CPU load from the audioserver, that's not because we didn't fix the issue, that's because a new problem with the AudioFX. Just open the app and disabled it for speaker and then again with headphones pluged in, for headphones.

I did a dirty flash of 09/18 on top of 8/21 with OpenGapps and Magisk installed and it went without any hiccups and what I had been using as my "daily driver" (A2017U) worked perfectly as far as I could tell.

I have since wiped the phone and reinstalled, the only reason being to check out a fresh install, and other than the waiting game of reinstallation of apps and settings, no hassles have been encountered..

Many thanks OrdenKrieger for all his time and effort getting this right and also for all the other contributors involved keeping the latest version of Android and LineageOS moving forward on this fine piece of hardware.
