[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] dadi11:
Answering your first question should be the answer for all the next questions too, so Oreo development was already stopped as we have focused on pie and it's already running well and it's much more polished. You'll probably like it much more than this, but I wanted to release at least one stable build to see if anyone wants to have 8.1 builds running as I said before. Security patches and some minor updates will still be added though and I'll look what can I do with these bugs ;)

Holy ****, he is here too... [MENTION=3792100]dadi11[/MENTION] started with lg Optimus g, redmi note 3, oneplus 6 now cool ???
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] castrum_doloris:
Okay, thanks for the answer :)

I don't want/can't to upgrade to Pie for various reasons. One of them is XPosed of course ^_^

So I'm eagerly searching and hoping for an actively supported alternative Custom ROM which could replace my actual HavocOS 8.1.

Beside Xenon, there are only 2 other 8.1 Roms left: CarbonRom and (unofficial) Lineage, which both don't seem very actively supported and lacking some features and are sometimes a bit unstable

I really like Xenon. Seems stable and has most of the features built in I'd like to have on a CustomRom. For sure all the important ones.

The only things which I miss and are coming to my mind spontaneously are more gimmicks than usefull ^_^

Pie animations/Qick Tiles, Complete Black Theme (which I pointed out in my previous post), changing Fonts and custom Status Bar Logo. Especially the last one is quite useless, but I liked it. I tried to mod ROMs by myself to add a simple 'Change Font' and 'Status Bar' Menu but I couldn't achieve it ^_^

However, thank you for the Rom and I will definetely use and test it for a while now :). The best actively supported 8.1 ROM in my opinion.

Looking forward to all minor updates :D
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] lpdavidgc:
Wow! Thanks you for the last build! I love 8.1 for xposed and it's better than pie!
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Totone56:
Well, you made my old G3 amazing back in the day, i always came back to XenonHD :D Hope the OP6 will feel the same !
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] dadi11:
nice to hear that and to see you again guys :o
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] dadi11:
this has been fixed

we won't bring anything from pie to oreo. for theming you can use substratum, it's fully supported in xenon. changing fonts can also be done with some 3rd party apps/modules. and sorry but we're not going to bring, as you said, "useless" features there.. ;)

new official build will be released tomorrow, along with pie release :fingers-crossed:
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] rahul12345singh:
bro plz update it to android pie 9

btw rom is ok
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] castrum_doloris:
Nice, thanks

Oh, I never expected you to add any of these things! :)

As you said before, Xenon 8.1 exists for quite a while now and therefore is already very polished. Also I wouldn't consider any of these things as 'minor updates'.

I did not express myself very well there, I'm sorry. I was just a little bit too talkative, maybe because I have been excited about this new Oreo Rom which works so much better than Carbon/LOS.

If I'd love all these useless features so much, I could stick to HavocOS. But I prefer an up-to-date Rom over these little things.

Fonts are easy to change manually. And I figured that Substratum works unexpected well! In every other Rom I had always problems and bugs (white text on white background etc).

May I politely ask again some little questions:

Just out of curiousity, what you would consider as 'minor updates'?

I'd suppose things as Kernel Updates (egs. merge Linux-Stable), Bugfixes and maybe such things as (OOS-)Camera improvements/updates (just an example, no expectations ^_^)

And speaking of Kernel:

I saw that Xenon uses Flash Kernel. I also read the statement of nathanchance that he'll quit Android development, at least for now. Will you/Xenon still use this Kernel nevertheless?

Concerning bugs:

Especially right after the boot-up I get several FCs of different apps and services. Nothing severe, I don't experience any instabillity or disadvantages. But am I the only one?

'How far' do you support bugfixing?

For example:

- As I install Viper4Android 2.6.0.6 the WiFi breaks.

- I fixed this with installing Smurf Kernel 1.6.4.

Smurf uses Spectrum-Profiles, but Spectrum shows an error that the Kernel is not supported (all other Roms don't have this issue)

Before I'm going to hunt for logs, it would be nice to know if such things would be investiged, despite it's not concerning the Rom directly

I'm looking forward to the releases :)

Thanks for your time and answers. And sorry for the Wall of Text again :angel:
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] dadi11:
device sources (device tree, kernel, blobs) updates, lineage upstreams, android security patches

I've switched to lineage kernel for both o and p

needs confirmation and logs. it might be caused by the things you've flashed with rom

usually I don't care about 3rd party stuff, but I will check if there's something I can do. maybe some of these issues will be fixed on upcoming build or in future
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] dadi11:
new build is up. I've decided to release one more experimental because of the kernel change

fyi, there's no big difference between builds called experimental and official, just the name, time it was built and changes it includes. so you can flash experimental on official and vice versa in future
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] storytellerz:
Not asking for ETA, just want to know will you upload the 9.0 pie version? If yes then I will not update my OB6 to OB7. Hope this doesn't offend you. :)
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] dadi11:
probably later today, but I don't promise anything ;)

I need some testers before pie release, please contact me on pm or telegram if you're interested.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] nickelnine:
Great to see a new Oreo ROM! I'm hesitant to move to Pie because of Xposed like others have said. Looking forward to more releases!
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] OwnDroid:
Can I be one of your testers? Have more then enough experience in bug finding and killing and ROM building :)

Just click my name or Google it and you'll find my history :)

If yes can I have you telegram link for testing?

Cheers
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] dadi11:
yeah, sure. I don't do any selection, so I invite everyone interested, especially those who are experienced ;) I've already shared my tg link before and have it in signature but, well.. t.me/dadi11

[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] dadi11:
any word about the latest build?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] nickelnine:
Don't see any night mode and touch screen seems a bit laggy.

Also, Bluetooth does not stay connected to my car; it connects then car dash shows 'no service' after a phone call or just randomly on the next Bluetooth connection whereas stock Bluetooth was flawless in this regard. Something you can kindly look at?

So far loving it though.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] nickelnine:
Also noticed display timeout randomly goes from 1 minute sleep to 5 minutes and when setting lockscreen notifications to show all content, it reverts to show nothing at all.

Solved the Bluetooth problem with a separate zip.

[MENTION=3792100]dadi11[/MENTION] hi,Will the new update come?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] dadi11:
As soon as December security patch will be merged
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] metaxda:
i've been in love with XenonHD for some time now (using it on Samsung, Motorola phones),

and i just got this phone (OnePlus 6 [128GB storage])... _ONLY_ because of XenonHD :cowboy:

now, i know LineageOS 16.0 (Pie) still has kernel in 'PERMISSIVE' mode,

so i prefer to have it 'ENFORCING' for now and will choose XenonHD 8.1

i have some questions:

- if my new OnePlus 6 has latest firmware, do i need to downgrade Android? (any need to turn on 'data roaming' before flashing?)

- which kernel is best to use - ElementalX ? Franken? Radioactive? CleanSlate ? etc. ?

- any other tips or tricks?

thanks :cool:
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] castrum_doloris:
Enforcing. But this is based on LOS 15.1, Android 8.1. So it has nothing to do with LOS 16.

1. You need OOS 5.11 on both slots. So yes, you have to downgrade if you're running a Pie-ROM.

2. Stock works quite well (if you don't want to install Viper4Android. Wifi breaks then).

I have been using SmurfKernel 1.6.4. But try by yourself, it's a personal thing in the end

3. Uhm... don't know what you expect from this question. I'm not a big fan of NovaLauncher, so I installed Ruthless Launcher
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] castrum_doloris:
Finally I was able to get some logs concerning my already mentioned problems:

1. On stock kernel, after installing Viper4Android WiFi breaks

2. To fix this, I installed SmurfKernel 1.6.4, but Spectrum doesn't work there as it should. (Not a severe issue, it's just a convenient feature of the kernel)

3. On home screen, the volume buttons control the media volume, not the ring volume (no media is playing)

If I'm getting to the FCs again, i'll take logs again.

I hope I've done everything right. If not, let me know :)

I could also be your tester if you need one

Thanks in advance
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Totone56:
Not on this particular ROM, but the best experience i had is with Blu_Spark ! This kernel with blu_schedutil governor gives amazing battery life, and performance is perfect.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] castrum_doloris:
I just downloaded it a few minutes ago to try blu_spark ^_^

If I'm right the r39 is the latest Oreo Version? Did you use his Magisk-Settings or do you recommend to just manually change the governor to blu_schedutil?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Totone56:
Not a clue, I got the phone a month ago and only used Pie ROMs :(

I personally use EX Kernel Manager, does the job ! Didn't try his Magisk injected settings !
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] dadi11:
r52 is latest Oreo release
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] castrum_doloris:
That's very sad to hear. :(

Then there's only CarbonRom left for Oreo Roms...
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] dadi11:
it's already merged in latest xenonhd release for enchilada though
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] castrum_doloris:
What do you mean? The Android/LOS upstreams for December? Yes, i saw that and for this (and several months following) the ROM is (quite) up to date. But after a while it's a bit too outdated (for example monthly security patches)

Well it was fun to discover a new ROM, even it was only for a short time (at least for now). I thank you for sharing it with us.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] dadi11:
What do you mean by "too outdated"? We're always up to date.. even if Oreo is not supported anymore ;)
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] castrum_doloris:
I mean for example security patches. Or to quote you from a while ago:

I think you are refering to the Android 9 releases there ^_^. Then you're right, but I can't/don't want upgrade to Android 9 for various reasons :)

So this Rom won't be up to date at least for me (and all those who want to stay on Oreo)
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] dadi11:
No, I mean security patches like you and like I said before it's already the latest one..
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] castrum_doloris:
Oh then I missunderstood everything. Sorry!

EDIT:

Okay I'm still a bit confused now...

Just that I'm getting this all right:

r52 will be the last release of Xenon (8.1).

Because Google and/or Lineage are dropping their support too (they won't provide any further security patches or development for Oreo)?

Or is the support for Xenon 8.1 dropped because too less interest or lack of time or smth like that?

Or did you mean smth completely different? Like that Xenon has merged in the (current) security patches as well as Carbon? (Which I already knew)

Sorry, English is obvisously not my native language :)
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] chayjinn:
sorry just, not sure this has been ask before? is there anyway we can hide the notch from this rom or app are viewing at fullscreen?

in OOS 5.1.11, for example clash royale, it will run will full screen but the game doesn't affected by the notch, which means they are scaling it properly.

in LOS 15.1, for example clash royale, it will also run will full screen but the game does affected by the notch, it was scaled and the notch was intrusive blocking the view.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] jdgesmlls:
8.1 r52 is the latest released of AOSP Oreo w/ December security patches. This is independent from Xenon HD (or any custom ROM). Xenon HD 8.1 is as was already explained, synced with this Android version in the 12/10 release. It could likely be the last release by Google of Android Oreo 8.1, as focus has been shifted to Android Pie. So if Google does not release new AOSP Oreo versions, there will be nothing for Xenon HD (or any custom ROM project) to update. Interest aside, developers are bound by what Google decides to sustain with previous Android versions.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Lenny2311:
Gonna be installing this ROM closer to the end of the month. Excited to see any differences between this and LOS 15.1. Just need stability/my config for the time being

Ty for continuing 8.1 support
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] castrum_doloris:
Okay thanks, then I got this (mostly) right.

But as far as I understood it, r52 will be the latest Version for Xenon 8.1, independent from what Google does.

EDIT:

Oooh I maybe got the root of all this chaos and confusion!

I asked yesterday the user Totone56

I was refering there to the blu_spark custom kernel releases, not the XenonHD 8.1 releases. ^_^

But dad11probably thought I was asking for the latest Xenon release.

So I thought, dadi11's response

would mean, that the December release of Xenon 8.1 (r52) will be the latest XenonHD 8.1 release ever! (No more further releases)

So, as long as Google/Lineage are releasing Oreo updates, there will also be further Xenon releases? (Monthly I guess)

Did I get it everything right now? ^_^

If I'm right, are bug reports still usefull/wished or rather not?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] jdgesmlls:
Oreo FTW!

The 12/15 build runs excellent, and is the only custom ROM I found so far where VoWiFi for T-Mobile works on the OP6 (including all Pie based ROMs). Thanks for bringing Xenon 8.1 to the OP6!
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Lenny2311:
I can't seem to get android auto to work. I'm using pico gapps and its saying that play services isn't working. Any ideas before I flash micro g?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Lenny2311:
Ended up on pie. Does anyone know what gapps work with Android auto? Tried pico-micro and it would not work no matter what. Even tried gapps from before the December 5th security patch. No luck. I used pico on lineage 15.1 and it was fine once it was setup

I did not full wipe. I tried with just wiping 15.1 but my internal data was still there if that makes a difference

Also what twrp is compatible? I needed to use bluspark custom twrp to get out of qualcomm crashdump mode and flash the full OOS rom
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] chayjinn:
sorry do u mind to share which version of TWRP are u using currently for this rom ?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Lenny2311:
I installed it with 3.2.1 everything worked except for Android auto and my play services error but that could be opengapps or something I did wrong. You need older twrp for 8.1 I believe
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] jdgesmlls:
Latest blu_spark. 9.86.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Lenny2311:
Is this rom working fine for you guys? I'm on open beta 9 and it's been a little glitchy so probably gonna give this one another shot
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Lenny2311:
Managed to get it installed properly and got my play services working correctly

First I needed to fastboot boot twrp 3.2.1

Flash OOS 5.1.11

Flash latest bluspark twrp

Flash OOS 5.1.11

Then wipe and flash xenon

Flash latest bluspark twrp

Reboot and flash Opengapps arm64 pico8.1 11202018. MUST FLASH 11202018 OR PLAY SERVICES WILL NOT WORK WITH ANDROID AUTO AND POSSIBLE OTHER APPS

that's it. The hardest thing was just getting the right version of gapps to work. I assumed before the december 5th security patch and gapps should work but I needed an earlier version

So far so good. Will report back with any issues but so far everything has been great. Only wish I still had the gestures from OOS OB9.... Maybe these can be implemented? :)

Great work and thank you. Pie is not for me yet
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] dadi11:
Gesture navigation is already implemented in rom and works similar to OOS one
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Lenny2311:
Do you think its possible to get the latest gesture controls from the open betas? Where you get the different appswitcher and animations?

In the Xenon settings I used the quick unlock option and it broke unlocking my phone or the unlock with fingerprint after reboot. The phone would just constantly relock itself and would shut the display off.

EDIT: Used an OEM phone cable and all flashing issues went away. Sorry for the spam. Daily driving now :D

First impressions: best Oreo ROM available for oneplus 6 hands down
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Lenny2311:
Absolutely amazing ROM. It feels like lineage 15.1 but much more polished. So much so that I can't even remember the bugs I dealt with on lineage 15.1 besides when dragging and zooming an image it would flip and do weird things but that is fixed now. There was a ton of little things on lineage that would bug me but they seem non existent on this rom

Bugs/notes:

1.The only thing that I haven't been able to figure out is that there are options to get rid of icons on the status bar. But there's no option to remove the VoLTE icon without disabling it.

2. Also auto brightness seems to be on by default if you don't toggle the button in xenon settings. But I just leave it on auto since it works so well and isn't too dim.

3.Also when unlocking the device with the finger print reader it seems there's a second delay before the screen kicks on after it vibrates.

4.Sometimes I'll get an app crash on boot but that most likely is an issue with how I configured my device rather than the ROM itself

This is exactly what I wanted from an Oreo ROM. Id go as far to say best ROM on oneplus 6. A shame everyone is on buggy pie builds when you released the best ROM I've used yet.

I'm using 11/20 pico gapps and radioactive kernel 1.1.6 custom. I'm using that specific gapps because I was having issues with android auto and google play services on later gapps. Radioactive kernel I use because it had the best battery life and performance that I've tested.

Also with magisk modules gms doze and LKT battery life is amazingly good idle. Charged to 70% (I don't charge to 100% to prevent excess strain) on Friday 3:30 PM and recharged at 25% on sunday 3:30 PM

Wish I had more bugs to report but couldn't find any.

Thank you [MENTION=3792100]dadi11[/MENTION] great work. Underappreciated ROM
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] dadi11:
new build is going to be released today ;)
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] castrum_doloris:
Nice to hear :)

But I can't boot it properly. Various FCs (SystemUI, com.android.phone, media, etc), like in the very first build released.

(I did a clean flash with wiping System, Data, Dalvik))

If I'm the only one, I'll try to start over and install OOS 5.11 again before flashing the new XenonHD release. But normally this shouldn't be necessary ^_^
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] dadi11:
ughh, sorry for that. I will recompile it tomorrow. taken it down for now
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Lenny2311:
Last build still running great! Snappy and stable. Always reliable when I need it. Thanks for your ROM and continued support!

Is the new ROM just an upgraded security patch?

Thanks!
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] dadi11:
Ok, I've reuploaded a new build already. It's updated to January security patch, compiled with clang & SD clang, kernel 4.9.129 and contains all fixes and improvements from lineage since the last build, but it won't be showed in changelog
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Lanchon:
hey [MENTION=3792100]dadi11[/MENTION],

thank you for your work!!!

now that XHD Pie for enchilada has gone official, will you continue to push updates to the Oreo version?

thanks again!
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] dadi11:
Yes, there's a build with may security patch already ;)

[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] dadi11:
New official build with June security patch is now available
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] dadi11:
Attention, XenonHD users and fans.

The premiere of Android 10 is behind us and along with it I have some sad news for some of you. The upcoming updates may be the last for your devices and by the last I mean that our project will end with the Pie version of Android. There will be no XenonHD 10 and support for older versions will end soon as well.

From this place, I would like to thank everyone who made this project possible, all our devs, maintainers, supporters and users.

Thank you for 9 years of being with us :highfive:
