This is for the new 6t build? Is it up yet?

Thank you, but where to download?

Doesn't seem to boot up, is it just me?
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Xellotath:
I'm installing the new update using the built-in installer, does it usually take such a long time? After 25 mins it's only this far:
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] toolhas4degrees:
Try going to setting in the update and turning on priority
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Xellotath:
Thanks i did try that, not sure if it made a difference but it's still taking forever. At this rate i'll have to cancel it and do some other time :(

Does this rom have FP on AOD?
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Sredna76:
Same problem happend to me.

But after flashing again it worked.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] cgibbons51:
You can download the zip and flash in TWRP. Just don't wipe data. Then you won't lose your stuff. I'd make sure to flash TWRP again though after flashing the update because I had the recovery go to HAVOC recovery first time I flashed.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] the00guy:
I have a weird issue where whenever I flash a new havoc update & pico gapps, all of the apps that serve notifications won't notify me unless I reinstall the app. Clearing app data doesn't seem to fix it, even for non-google apps.

Also re-flashing gapps causes all of the user-installed google apps to crash until i uninstall and reinstall them manually, but I suppose that's a gapps issue not a havoc issue.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] jguy:
Im also stuck on the boot screen after updating. I can only get back the havoc recovery. not sure what to do from there. Please help
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Jzxs:
Bluetooth headset delay is very high, the official rom does not have this problem？:o;)
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] the00guy:
Try downloading the full zip, copying it to your phone while in twrp, and installing that? Also don't forget to reflash twrp, reboot into twrp, and then flash magisk if you're using it.

What's the best custom kernel for this rom, that doesn't mess up fp or anything else?
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Daveey:
Personally I've used Smurf and Neutrino. Neutrino is the best personally for me!

Where is the neutrino kernel for op6t? Do you have a link?

Question: The feature that makes the screen go bright to light up your face, to make face unlock work better in the dark, is this a OOS-specific thing ?
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] MarcoLK:
Yes, but you can try to create Tasker profiles and tasks that bright up the screen if it is dark.

How to temporarily revert to oos?

I flashed oos+twrp and then it restarted back to twrp...
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] mattyditfc:
Flash OOS

Flash TWRP

Reboot TWRP

Factory reset

Format data

Reboot system

That should boot you into OOS. You can then transfer any rom files etc to your device if you are wanting to then flash another rom
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] fabianocannizzo:
sorry guys but upgrade ota not working :crying:
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] darfri:
So I will also lose Internal Storage? Or will this just overwrite system, vendor, kernel, recovery and wipe data partition? Isn't factory reset and format data the same?
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] mattyditfc:
You will lose internal storage so transfer anything you want to keep to a pc then follow those steps. I don't think you can go back to OSS without formatting data unfortunately
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] carlosjcar:
This last version is the most stable I have seen so far Than you!

How do I set up anti burn in for AOD?
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] toolhas4degrees:
You have to wipe internal storage to go back to oos
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] ALYSKY:
Is this rom better than OOS? If yes - in what? Tell me your opinion! Some bugs?
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] ALYSKY:
Please give me instruction!

What I have done to there:

1. Unlocked bootloader

2. Boot TWRP .img file

3. Install recovery ram disk from the same .img file

4. Reboot to TWRP

5. Install TWRP installer .zip file

6. Reboot to TWRP

7. Wipe system, data, dalvik partitions

8. Flash Havoc and TWRP installer

9. Reboot to TWRP

10. PARTITIONS ENCRYPTED/UNABLE TO FLASH GAPPS

I'm using TWRP UNOFFICIAL BY MAURONOFRIO.

What to do now?

I'm tired! Give me instruction!
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] silver2706:
What is issue here ?
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] ALYSKY:
Encrypted partitions and unable to flash gapps
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] abalam:
Don't wipe system only data and dalvik
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Striatum_bdr:
Never wipe system it causes incapacity of decrypting.

Try to boot the rom once, don't go through the setting process and reboot to twrp.

And no need to install TWRP.img. just install directly TWRP zip installer when you are booted in TWRP.

I have noticed a few bugs.

Ambient display options are listed twice within havok tweaks.

One in ambient display and the other in device ambient display wehn you turn on on it does not turn the same setting on in the other section, seems contradictory to the other switches. Also ambient display does not turn off with the qs toggle. I couldn't find a switch to disable it in settings, even though it says it is supposed to be under display.

One other thing.

Is implemention of double tap to wake ambient stock possible like oos, with the double tap to wake option off

What is the right base to flash this rom..?

Is it 9.0.15 or 9.0.13 or any other..?

Plzz help
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Joern85:
For me a downside compared to oxygen os is that there is no option to trigger the aod by a single tap. I found it very convenient to unlock my phone with two taps.

Fingerprint works fine, sometimes the unlock screen won't disappear after unlock. But it's rare .

I also had issues wear os not being able to stay connected, this issue doesn't appear on havoc :cool:

[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] jamesst20:
Thank you for the reply, it's very kind of you :)

Is the battery life and smoothness just as good ? I must say I have no complaints about the battery life, I can get easily 2 days of moderate use on OxygenOS.

Thank you ! :)
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Joern85:
Battery life is definitely worse, even with neutrino kernel. But smoothness is fantastic!

Can anyone tell me how to change the screen rotation animation speed (without using the transition animation slider in developer options). Right now it seems to be set on something really fast like .5 speed or something. Any help is appreciated.

---------- Post added at 03:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:21 PM ----------

I'd check out Max Lee's channel (High on Android). He does a lot of 6t vids, and has a video on how to install a rom and one on how to root your device.

Hi, when i charge my OP6T (Switched-off) i have a problem it keep rebooting.

I mean when i first plug it in, it seems to "boot" (One small vibration) and give me the charging animation.

However after the screen turn black it come back to first step ... It is endless (Boot,Charging Animations,switch off,boot,charching animations.)

Now i need to charge it switched on to avoid this problem. Is there any way to fix that ? Thanks

Stucked on Fastboot Mode

Hello ! Please can somebody help me ?

I just tried to flash this ROM and I used the method in the 1st page of this topic. I was on the latest OOS and I had twrp 3.2.3-2. I rebooted on recovery, wipe data, system, dalvik, cache. Flash rom + recovery (3.3.1-6) and when I rebooted on recovery I couldn't install gapps/magisk because the files were crypted so I rebooted system and I was able to enter in OS. In the OS I could see my files there so I activated the developer options but I couldn't find advanced reboot so I couldn't go to recovery. Tried to connect the phone to pc and send the files again from there but ddn't let me. Rebooted the phone and my system crashes everytime I put the pin. I turned off the phone and used +- + power and got into fastboot mode, from there I can boot to recovery via fastboot but I still can't see my files so I was reading about installing the same thing on both slots in recovery. I went to slot A and wiped and I thought I could install again but no, files still encrypted, I rebooted system and right now im stucked in fastboot mode. I can't access recovery from fastboot because it says : FAILED(remote: Failed to load/authenticate boot image: Load Error)

I can't boot into system because I don't have it, can't boot recovery because of that, im stucked. Can somebody help me please ?

Thank you in advance.

Hey there bud, one thing you never want to do is wioe system, unlike other devices like Nexus 6P you do need to wipe system but for OnePlus 6T you just don't do that, can you reboot to twrp?
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] d u d a:
Hello, so it was because of wiping system that my files were encrypted by twrp ?

Right now I can't access twrp, when I try to boot the img says this in powershell : FAILED(remote: Failed to load/authenticate boot image: Load Error) and i am sure i am writing the command right.

[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Josh McGrath:
I wipe system after every single rom change. Why does it matter anyway?

The only issue I've ever had was the encryption issue, but data wipe solved that.

Second issue I've only had after wiping system is Xprivacy hangs apps frequently but not on this rom. OMNI was unusable with Xprivacy lua

---------- Post added at 02:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:44 AM ----------

Sounds like you lost your baseband. The only way I fixed it was to flash back via Flashall to stock. Even a rom swap didn't help

Gonna do that now. Thank you for the info.

Anyone else getting abysmal batter like 3.5 to 4.5 hours SOT?
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] darfri:
Yes

This is a new bug with the 2.8 update.

The deep sleep time is normally good but it still drains like hell. Nothing to read from statistics as the wakelocks ain't messing and battery statistics ain't showing abnormal activity by apps

device/vendor/kernel tree for fajita

Hi all,

this rom works really well, congrats.

I have seen that this is an official build.

I cannot find the device/vendor/kernel tree you used to build it inside the Havoc-Devices

Which trees have you used for fajita?

Thank you very much.

Regards,

lopo5150
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Istvan_86:
The rom is absolutly amazing in terms of customization and stability but for me has the worst battery life that I try and I do tests with a lot of kernels and 2.7 version.

Anyway really great work but the rom isn´t for me at least in it´s current state. (and I think other people that do a heavy usage of their phones can have the same issue).

Thanks for the rom and keep the good work!!!
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] d u d a:
Yes that was the only way to solve this problem.

Apparently if you want to install this rom coming from a sock rom you need to flash it in a different way.

Anyway, I have the rom working right now, really great rom, only things that I am still getting used is the delay of fingerprint and facial recognition. They are not as fast as the OOS but not a big issue and of coursw the battery drain, really high. Other than that it is a excelent rom with many features.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Josh McGrath:
The FP delay is so irritating is this new with the latest update?

The battery issue is ridiculously bad. I barely used my phone and I'm already at 76pct after pulling off the charger less than 3 hours ago

How fast is this rom updated? I am debating on switching vs just waiting till next update
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] darfri:
This rom has mostly been good on battery. The 28 update is bad. We get around 4 updates per month and only two have had a bad battery since february
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] mishra_gi:
I am using neutrino kernel, and it does solve the drain issue to a big extent. You can, maybe, look into that
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Josh McGrath:
I am also going to check that out. Thanks

This battery issue is the worst I've ever seen on any Android I've had. I've had to charge my phone 3 times today
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] darfri:
I use neutrino, doesn't help with this release
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] mishra_gi:
On second thoughts, you are right. Even with neutrino- it doesn't help much. Am sure OP will take note and help. Also, do you notice some issue with wifi strength? Just a hunch, it seems it is not excellent even when very close to router now...

Edit- switched to the last version from July. All seems better now
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Josh McGrath:
Did you dirty flash or have to clean flash back to July?
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] zzzhead:
Don't flash if ur encrypted
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Josh McGrath:
Sounds like a clean flash is a must then?
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] mishra_gi:
Yes... So far, it works much better.

Clean flash required quite a bit of effort though?
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Josh McGrath:
This FP reader staying on screen is annoying as well. Is this rom usually have this issue?

I'm about ready to go back to stock but I need AOD and since OnePlus won't enter Even 2009 and add it, I am stuck
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] nsiromani:
same here

the fingerprint staying on is a big issue and then there is the battery drain
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] darfri:
Oh yeah, I was close to losing my data... And ended back in 2.8...

Also, the temp has raised. Downgrading ain't easy. Hoping to see update in few days
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Josh McGrath:
Me too. I just DLed Lineage but like this rom overall. Checked their TG and its a link to all Havoc builds but I don't know how to use telegram just yet either to see if they know about it
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] darfri:
I just tried again downgrade to 2.7:

Rebooted to twrp

Flashed oxygen+twrp

Rebooted twrp

Flashed again oxygen+twrp

Rebooted twrp

Flashed havoc+twrp

Rebooted twrp

Flashed havoc+twrp

Rebooted twrp

Flashed magisk 19.3

(didnt flash custom kernel)

Tried rebooting to system but it crashed as soon as i got over the bootloader unlocked warning and returned to twrp..

There I dirty flashed bacl to 2.8 twice and am running again. On heating battery drainer 2.8

I guess 2.8 changed something on the data partition so the 2.7 gets confused

I think I should have factory reset and wiped data before flashing oxygen but I hate moving back and forth my tens of gigabytes of personal data

Btw what's the point of telegram instead Of xda for the devs...

If it's the security in style then yeah.... App that is tied to ones phone number is far from being secure
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] zzzhead:
As a general rule, you are not able to downgrade from a higher security patch to lower when you are encrypted, without wipe.

It's different if ur decrypted.

I switch back to op6 from op6t. Op6t is a bad flagship of them all, 1st gen in display fp and can't decrypt if u want lock screen
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] darfri:
Well I always remove pattern lock with "yes" to that extra question it asks before flashing. You meant that decryption?

Btw the fp reader is really ok at least with my finger patterns.

[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] zzzhead:
Managed to downgrade w unencrypted on Op6. Encryption messes the whole process, what I've read is some ppl managed to downgrade by removing lock screen security first, but I can't confirm this
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] mishra_gi:
Nope. Removed lockscreen security, yet i had to wipe data later ?? But there is a way: if i have a usb drive with files to flash- it wouldn't matter if encryption renders the files on Phone unusable
