You guys please let me know if seeing battery drain issue.

I tried it few weeks ago and battery drain so fast.

---------- Post added at 02:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:30 PM ----------

I'm on AT&T and I don't have it, that's mean no VoLTE as well, really suck.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] SirDigitalKnight:
Will keep an eye on the battery for you... I am already down to 20% and the phone was getting very hot but I was also re-installing everything and downloading Whatsapp messages back to the phone so not surprised.

I am having an issue with Contacts not wanting to sync with this ROM and Google Voice is also not letting me read my text messages but I also have it setup to email me the messages so at least I can see them in Gmail.

Need to figure out the Contacts issue now.....

I installed Telegram and tried out the StatiXOS thread and it was a mess and when I asked for help they kicked me out of the group! They all seem like a bunch of kids on there posting silly gif's and responses that make no sense at all. Who would want to try and even use the piece of crap application? Or maybe I am missing something? :confused:
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] chanh2018:
Unless you need VoLTE otherwise, at this moment, the most stable with latest Android security patch ROM and good battery is Lineage OS 17.1

If you need help to install LOS, let me know.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] SirDigitalKnight:
Lineage 17.1 is Android 10. I want to run the latest version of Android which is now 11 which this ROM is based on. I am hoping that they release Lineage OS 18.0 for the PH-1 and if they do I will try it but for now this is the only one that I found that seems to be working good with Android 11.

And no VoLTE down here in Colombia so no need for it.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] chanh2018:
Okay, then please do me a favor by monitoring the battery usage.

I'd like to compare yours with mine, since the battery life in my phone with this rom was terrible.

Thanks in advance.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] SirDigitalKnight:
Por supuesto ChanH2018!

I did manage to get everything working after I did a fresh nuke and pave, so now Contacts and Phone and Google Voice messages are all working correct. I think I might have missed a check box on the wipe/clear option in TWRP so most likely user error.

I am going to do a complete write up on the correct and easy steps to install this or any ROM for future users that might have a Stock PH-1 with locked Bootloader. Thanks to freshlysqueezed and his fantastic automated .bat file which speeds up the process, it was easy to nuke and pave the PH-1 whenever I needed to due to a mistake.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] sebasrock156:
Isn't necessary install Vendor and Modified Kernel for AOSP, you only need wipe all (System, Data, Dalvik *Cache* and factory reset).

Install ROM, Recovery and Magisk (Patched or not).
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] kt-Froggy:
Went through the entire thread, and I really want to try tris one out. From what I can read, it looks like the Eseential camera app is working on this ROM. But can anyone please confirm if 360 Camera actually works? So far, I haven't seen any ROM other than stock supporting it...
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] SirDigitalKnight:
Chrome freezes on this ROM!

Point 2 is still a big problem with this ROM. I installed both Chrome Beta and Edge (Chromium based) and all three apps freeze and popup a message "Chrome isn't responding" !

Firefox works flawlessly! Very strange that Google's own browser will not work in Google's own OS but Firefox does?

Anyone know of a fix for this issue with Chrome?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] SirDigitalKnight:
360 Camera does work with this ROM, Chrome does not.

Yes, I can confirm that the 360 Cam does actually work with this ROM. Just took a picture at 89% battery and it worked. Will try it again at a lower battery % to see if it has any issues.

Only BIG problem with this ROM is the Chrome issue as it is not usable, just hangs/freezes and you have to close the app and open it up and again and it will work another minute and then freeze up again... so it is useless. This Chrome issue also effect the Discovery feed, you sometimes click on a article and nothing happens, so you have to click on Share and select Firefox to open it up... very frustrating. So Firefox works fine on this ROM so if your a Firefox web browser user than no problem.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] freshlysqueezed:
No problem with chrome or edge for me with v4.0-NUCLEAR-20201109-1121. Previous statiXOS versions had issues with chrome.

Don't know if it matters but I'm running android webview version 87.0.4280.66.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Chief Brody:
I've rolled back to the January 2020 stock essential firmware and installed TWRP. I'm a little vague at the actual flash process for this ROM. Do I just wipe and install the ROM zip, or do I need to install ROM + a TWRP zip again? Anything to be aware of with the A+B partitions? Thanks!
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] chanh2018:
The process is pretty simple if you have the boottwrp (that patched version)

1. Back to Jan stock rom - copy Statix rom + TWRP installer zip to phone

2. In bootloader, flash boottwrp.img (don't worry abou A/B, just use command fastboot flash boot boottwrp.img)

3. Goto TWRP recovery and flash Statix rom - and then TWRP installer zip (important, flash TWRP installer right after flash rom)

4. Reboot to recovery again

5. Flash gapps if you want, if not, reboot to system

6. Done

Hi guys, can anyone monitor the battery usage for this new release?

Thanks in advance.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Chief Brody:
Many thanks! I haven't done a ROM in a while and the additional TWRP flash step after the ROM seems new. It looks like the latest StatiXOS rom includes GAPPs as well.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] chanh2018:
oh...forgot about that...sorry, that's right, you don't need to flash the gapps in this rom. Thanks for the correction....I'm getting old :p
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] SirDigitalKnight:
I am running the exact same of both! Wonder why yours is working fine and mine is not. Seems to lock up every minute but after a while it will unlock itself and let me use it for another minute.

Anyone else seen this problem and has a fix?

I cleared cache and data of both Chrome and webview just to see if that would help but it is still crashing with "Chrome isn't responding"

---------- Post added at 01:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:46 PM ----------

Do you have anything else installed like magisk or something else that maybe I need to install?

Going to install TWRP and Magisk and see if that helps with the issues.... staytuned...
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] SirDigitalKnight:
"2. The ruby+ magisk patched boot image from the telegram group didn't pass safety net for me.

So for me, I had to extract the original statiXOS boot.img from the rom zip. (Search instructions on extracting android payload.bin using a payload dumper tool)

After having the rom installed and booting properly, I reflashed boottwrp and went back into twrp recovery and flashed the original statiXOS boot.img followed by the magisk canary zip and rebooted. With the MagiskHide props module, Safety net passed and I had root."

You lost me here on this part freshlysqueezed... when I reflashed the boottwrp.img after installing the ROM I can not boot back into the phone.

I followed these steps to a "T" :

1. Copy Paranoid rom and TWRP installer.zip to phone

2. Boot phone to boot loader

3. Ran flashall from this file PH1-Images-QQ1A.200105.007.zip that loads on the JAN stock and clears up everything for you.

4. Flash TWRP image (you need to find the patched version so you have touch, if not then you need to use USB dongle + mouse to operate because no touch after flashing regular TWRP image)

fastboot flasth boot TWRP.img

5. Boot to TWRP recovery and wipe Davik cache/System/Data, DO NOT wipe internal storage

6. Install Paranoid rom

7. Install TWRP installer.zip

8. Reboot - DONE

When you tell TWRP to go ahead and reboot after steps 6 and 7 it says "there is no OS installed are you sure you want to reboot?" I reboot anyway and it goes into the StatiXOS.

I just followed this process for the 4th time and I did not install anything, no apps, just put in my Google Account info. First thing I tried was Google Chrome and it worked for about a minute and then froze again. :(

The really strange thing is that Chrome locks up at exactly 60 seconds!! I timed it with my stopwatch and it is 100% exact at 60 seconds... then 22 seconds later after it freezes up the pop-up screen "Chrome isn't responding" comes up. I can then select "Close app" and repeat this over and over and over forever... I have never seen anything like it!
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] chanh2018:
Let me make it clearer this time for you:

To be safe, before flash any rom, I just back to Jan stock rom (by run flashall from zip folder of stock), I'm sure you're familiar with this step.

Assume you're in Jan stock rom now.

Case 1: Install Paranoid Android rom

1. Copy Paranoid rom + TWRP installer.zip to phone

2. Download the last vendor image of Essential to your computer (file name after unzip is vendor-QQ1A.200105.088.img )

you can get all files from Essential here https://essential-images.netlify.app/

3. Boot to boot loader, and flash boottwrp

fastboot flash boot boottwrp.img

4. Boot to TWRP recovery and wipe Davik cache/System/Data, DO NOT wipe internal storage

5. Boot back to bootloader

6. Flash vendor to both slots A and B

fastboot flash vendor_a vendor-QQ1A.200105.088.img

fastboot flash vendor_b vendor-QQ1A.200105.088.img

7. Go back to TWR recovery and install (rom first, TWRP second)

- Paranoid Android rom (file you copy in step 1)

- TWRP installer.zip (file you copy in step 1)

8. Reboot and Done

(gapps is included so no need to flash gapps)

Case 2: Install Statix 4.0

1. Copy Statix rom + TWRP installer.zip to phone

2. Boot to boot loader, and flash boottwrp

fastboot flash boot boottwrp.img

3. Boot to TWRP recovery and wipe Davik cache/System/Data, DO NOT wipe internal storage

4. In TWRP, install (Statix rom first, TWRP installer second)

5. Reboot and Done

(gapps is included so no need to flash gapps)

Chrome locks up at exactly 60 seconds

Thank you for the help and the reply chanh.

These are indeed the steps I have taken all 4 times when I have installed StatiXOS version 4.0.

At step 5. there is a prompt "there is no OS installed are you sure you want to reboot", is this correct? I just tell it to reboot and the StatiXOS loads.

I then let Google Play update the pre-installed Apps.

After everything is updated I test everything on the phone, BT works for my Wear OS watch and BT speakers, Voice calls work both on speaker and normal, Camera app works even with the 360 Camera.

The only thing is that is not working is Chrome locks up at exactly 60 seconds. This also effect how Discovery works.

I timed it with my stopwatch and it is 100% exact at 60 seconds, then exactly 22 seconds later after Chrome freezes up, the pop-up screen "Chrome isn't responding" comes up. I can then select "Close app" and repeat this over and over and over forever. I then download Edge and test it and it has the exact same problem. I then download Chrome Beta and it also has the exact same problem. I then download Firefox and it works perfect with no lockups.

The previous posts talk about Chrome not working on this ROM along with other issues of BT and Voice calls but the newer version of the ROM v4.0-NUCLEAR-20201109-1121 was supposed to fix all the issues but on my MATA I still have the Chrome not working bug. I tried going into the telegram channel but it said the channel is private. I sent in an issue report at github but not sure if they even read that anymore. https://github.com/StatiXOS/android_device_essential_mata/issues.

I also did an online search about Chrome Lockups at exactly 60 seconds on Android and came up with nothing. :confused:
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] chanh2018:
For me, StatixOS 4.0 is not ready as daily drive using yet. That's why it's not official and still "NUCLEAR" level, also SELinux is still in permissive mode. I don't think we expect it's perfect until full release.

From beginning, if you want stable rom, I suggest LOS, but you still want to experience with Android 11 features, then here we go....StatixOS 4.0 beta version with some bugs.

I believe developers knew about it as they monitor all threads, but how long to get the bugs fixed is up to them.

Just enjoy what you have or move on.

Darn, the install of the ROM zip fails at step 4. I get ERROR 1: Error installing zip file. Any ideas on this?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] chanh2018:
What zip file that have that error? Possible file corrupted, you can re-download that file and retry (re-download rom and twrp installer)
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Chief Brody:
It was the statix_mata-20201109-1121-11-v4.0-NUCLEAR. I tried again via USB and sideload with TWRP, with no joy. Too bad there is no checksum. I'm reflashing stock firmware and may try again at a later date. Thank you for the help nonetheless.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] kt-Froggy:
Installed the latest release, and played with it a bit. Installation was quick and painless. Very nice feeling overall, fast and smooth, pretty much everything works. I can definitely confirm freezing issues with Chrome and Edge - I assume any Chromium-based browser would behave the same. DuckDuckGo browser and Maxthon had no problems. Came across a weird issue with the built-in Statix launcher - after every reboot, the layout would reset to default, losing all customized icons and widgets. Nova didn't have that issue.

Reverted back to Feb stock mainly due to the browser crashes and launcher reset. Will most probably try Statix again, once it makes it to the official release.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] SirDigitalKnight:
Thank you for confirming this problem! Knew it could not just be me! I ended up installing LOS 17.1 Official as I wanted monthly security updates. It seems to be working good and have not found any bugs yet.

I also really liked StatiXOS and hope they come out with the official release soon, if they do I will be switching back. :highfive:

A friend ordered 2 on launch date , he is selling one for the same price.

What do you guys think ? Is it an upgrade for the mi9t pro ? The only reason i want it is because of the 120hz display.

Some people are saying is that the screen has ghosting tho and the LCD can not keep up with it. I don't know if it's true.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Robbo.5000:
In terms of raw performance, it's definitely a downgrade. Probably not much difference in the camera department. The higher refresh rate can be seen as an upgrade, and it's got a bigger battery and over 20% faster charging.

Personally, I wouldn't trade my K20 Pro for the Poco X3.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] IoIam:
If you don't mind gaming and losing oled it's technically an upgrade. Although I think the camera might be far worse too
