Ah, I forgot to mentioned my bootloader is already unlocked and I'm rooted. But anyways, I just tried flashing it:

1) Wiped System, Cache, Data

2) Flash EvolutionX_4.4_mata-10.0-20200612-2253-OFFICIAL.zip

But it says Error Installing zip file

Apologies, I downloaded the 4.5 instead when that happened. I just downloaded the 4.4 and it flashed fine. However, now when I tried reboot to system, it's telling me that there is no OS installed. What's going on?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MarsyChan:
maybe grab the January essential official flashing tools and get it back to stock then redo it, otherwise idk

I got this device recently and I have installed 4.5. It's really annoyed me that I can't use my stock camera and Taobao (Mainland China version) is unstable... Even twitter is unstable too!

I don't know if 4.4 has similar issues...
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MarsyChan:
I'm waiting for the next update since the new bulletin got released a few days ago I assume 4.6 it's on the way for this phone as it has been released on some others already, do assuming the device maintainer still maintains this device as he probably does it will come in a matter of days. And yes if u want a stable go for 4.4, 4.5 Is unusable for daily use and just crashes all the time
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Cardidi:
Thanks, I will do it tomorrow. Crashes drive my angry:eek:
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MarsyChan:

I upgraded to 4.5 last week and YouTube and Google Music crashes while scrolling, every single time. I did a clean flash of 4.5 and same thing. I dirty flashed back to 4.4 today and everything has worked great. I noticed the interactive governer was removed from 4.4 and replaced in 4.5, related?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Cardidi:
Everything goes fine after do a dirty flash.... That's great

No, it's temporary removed in this release for stability.

I'm on T-Mobile, and 4.6 is showing "Mobile voice network type" is LTE.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] chanh2018:
You should check in Setting - Network & internet - Mobile network, and see if there's an option to turn on VoLTE, if not that means not available.

Another way to check is when making a call, check cell signal, it should stay at either LTE or LTE+, or else, it'll drop to 4G or 3G.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] ramonet666:

Here's the changelog for 4.6
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] kfhughes:
This is what Settings -> System -> System Update shows:

I did a dirty flash from 4.4, but I don't think that matters.

Trying to update this rom. When download 4.6 from update screen, I get verification failed. Any ideas?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MarsyChan:
Same happened to me, it seems like u have to manually flash it via twrp
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Cardidi:
There is still something goes wrong in ver 4.6

First,VoLTE is not working.

Second, camera can't save photos sometimes.(I have tested in 4 apps but still not working)

Last, I can't set my screen brightness in QS panel or Settings sometime.

I am not sure is this same to anyone or special to my device.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Adien:
Having the same no saving photo sometimes too with last version... Need a reboot to fix...
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] lunchbox420:
The changelog says volte was removed in 4.6. I don't use it.

I'm not having any camera saving issues, although I have on past builds. I'm using GCam 7.2.

No brightness slider issues here either. The only problem I have is a random hard reboot every couple days.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Beej1970:
Downloaded and installed about a week ago... Loving it. Smooth, thanks for your efforts. ?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] njsges:
I seem to be having lots of issues getting this rom to load and work properly. My sequence is as follows:

- return to stock Aug 18 so I can install twrp so touch will work.

- install twrp.img then install twrp.zip to slot a (b is the active slot)

- install evo rom and reboot into twrp to install magisk to a and b slots

- switch to active b slot

- reboot to bootloader to flash stock evo boot.img (slot b boot loops from twrp)

- reboot and evo boot screen to startup, but unable to use touch

I am obviously missing something and have tried multiple different times with the same issue. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] gavinfernandes2012:
Bit of a shot in the dark here but try flashing a newer vendor image with Fastboot after all of those steps, either Jan or Feb. From what I've heard, issues with the touchscreen seem to be related to a mismatched vendor image.

Also as a side note, you can control twrp from ADB using your computer as well, so you can avoid the need to flash the August image in the first place by using that.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] njsges:
Thank you Gavin, I will give that a try. At what point would you suggest flashing the Jan or Feb vendor image?

Thank you for the side note as well. I've tried to control twrp via ADB but have been unable to as I've only been able to find how to do that is by activating it through twpr. How do I use ADB if I have no touch in ADP?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] gavinfernandes2012:
Flash the Jan/Feb vendor as the last step.

As for the ADB commands to control twrp, I'll go search up where I found it and get back to you soon.

EDIT:

So the command:

adb shell twrp help

Or

adb shell twrp -h

Or

adb shell twrp --help

Should give you a manual/help page on how to control twrp through adb. If you need further help, you'll need to reply to me with a message showing what that command says ^^^ since I don't actually use twrp on lineageos.

Something like adb shell twrp sideload followed by adb sideload path-to-rom-on-computer.zip should sideload said zip file. Might take a while and stop at a random percentage though, so you'll need to be patient with it.

Hi,

I'm using the Untribium charger (using the 2 pins to mage en wireless charger). After flashing EvoX rom, i'm able to use the 360 cam, but the Untribium charger isn't recognized untill i completely turn off the phone...

Lineage OS seems to accept this charger, but not EvoX. Is this Rom related ?

[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] gavinfernandes2012:
Honestly, I couldn't help you with VoLTE related problems since I don't use it myself. There are likely other folks here more knowledgeable about it than myself. Did touch start working for you btw?

Clear cache and data for the store. That should fix the issue

Have you tried the April Build?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MikeT1999:
Hi!

Yeah, I just reflashed it and booted into both recoveries and its show the 10.0 recovery at stock. Flashing the rom with twrp on slot_a flashes it to slot_b while also keep the twrp recovery untouched for slot_a.

It also reverts back to 8.10 recovery on slot_b.

Let me know if you have other suggestions

[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] shri_chanakya:
So Is the April update creating issues? I don't want to experiment as it has corporate email on it.

Any known work around for this?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] R2D2_SW:
None at the moment. Best course of action is to stay away from the April build for now, and if you are new, flash the March build instead.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Edgehead123:
Glossy I think.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MikeT1999:

I used Stock ROM for a long time so I forgot how to flash Evolution X by using twrp. Sorry this note is only for flash EvoX, not for flash both Magisk and EvoX.

This is my note shows that how I succeeded to flash Evolution X. I don't know other way better than mine but I can say this note works correctly in my environment.

Set up

- Install Essential-PH1-WindowsDrivers.exe

- Enable ADB/FASTBOOT

- Already unlocked bootloader

You need

- PH1-Images-QQ1A.200105.007.zip

- twrp-3.2.3-0-mata.img

- Build of Evolution X

Step

$ adb reboot bootloader

Unzip PH1-Images-QQ1A.200105.007.zip and double click 'flashall.bat' to start downgrade to QQ1A.200105.007 which is 2020-Jan Stock ROM. After reboot, set the device to enable ADB.

$ adb reboot bootloader

$ fastboot getvar current-slot

current-slot: _b

# If 'current-slot: _a', you should need to read a as b, b as a.

$ fastboot flash boot_a twrp-3.2.3-0-mata.img

$ fastboot --set-active=a

Choose and boot recovery. Than TWRP will start. The issue that touch is not working is known issue, don't care about it.

$ adb shell twrp sideload

$ adb sideload EvolutionX_4.6_mata-10.0-20200809-1528-OFFICIAL.zip

Terminal will say the sideloading finished or Failed. If failed. just do again from '$ adb shell twrp sideload'. My environment, the progress stop at 47% but the flashing seems successful.

After you succeeded to flash EvoX, you should go to recovery again, recovery is not twrp, it is EvoX custom recovery, and do factory reset.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] jakenluan:

I'm not sure why Official LineageOS does not have a thread on XDA.

https://download.lineageos.org/mata

The most recently build is 2020 10 26. New build are released weekly. You will need to follow their install instructions and use Lineage Recovery.

Installing Lineage will wipe your user data. There is no way around it.

I was using Lineage up until about two weeks ago when my phone went into bootloop every 5 minutes. I'm on Paranoid Android now but might move back to Lineage for the regular updates.

Well that's fun. All of a sudden I couldn't get wifi to turn on or the sim to be recognized. I think before I just had to reflash the rom and reseat the sim card but now nothing's working, not even going all the way back to stock 7.1.1 (NMK24B). Think this phone might just be done for. Aside from the camera not working sometimes which I had figured out how to fix, I basically had no issues.

New Gradient picker seems to be mandatory. There is no way to disable it. Whatever color you pick for Gradient will also be the color of the switch when it's on. Trying to disable it makes you end up with the switch disappearing. See screenshot.

I would instead like to have it like this (see screenshot). But it can't seem to stick. Any ideas?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] R2D2_SW:
Screenshot was not uploaded on my previous post. But this is how I would like the switch to be but I seems like the Gradient feature prevents it from happening. It's like this while you're in the theme section and then the white switch takes the accent color once you exit "The Evolver" section.
