This thread has been so quite for a long time. Any headsup??
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dlads:
Sign of a ROM that works very very well.

Flash any 12 ROM and I'll promise you you'll come back to this.

The new one will be done when it's done mate.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] tejkumarvusirikala:
I didn't want to flash any rom other than this.. so I was just waiting.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dyval:
You're running this ROM now bro? Thanks.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dlads:
At the moment I'm not as I've just had to update OOS and pull the boot image for my thread in guides, but overall this ROM is a beast, 2nd to none
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] tejkumarvusirikala:
My day doesn't end without checking this thread.. lol I'm so desperate. Feels like I'm gonna go crazy.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] ilyshirai:
I think we should wait and don't do things that can disturb the official maintainer and their work or there is an option to report bugs or missing things on unofficial build of Evolution X (snow release) on OnePlus 8/Pro (https://xdaforums.com/t/rom-12-0-evolution-x-12-22-2021-unofficial.4368233), ofc being patient is important too!
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Linuxpenguin:
Unfortunately looks like the official maintainer hasn't even been online for over a month on telegram.

I guess all we can do is wait and see. Maybe the unofficial maintainer will become the new official maintainer.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] tejkumarvusirikala:
Damn!! That's bad news.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] tejkumarvusirikala:
We have got less development when compared to other devices.. loosing the rom which is very good leaves a big hole in my heart. 😭
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] ewong3:
may be because he's working on A12 instead:

[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dlads:
This ROM is a tough act to follow, also has to accommodate a bunch of devices not just one, I'd stick with @AnierinB personally.

Dude you need to chill, you're insinuating that nothing is being done yet you have no idea if that's true...it's just rumour starting.

If it's quiet it's because you have a ROM that works well, not to mention that @AnierinB 's builds run on 3 devices, let the man do what he wants.. asking if it's done, saying it's quiet, it's all the same thing said differently.

Even if this ROM project ended with Evo A11; it would still be a testament to the dev and one of if not the best ROM on this or pretty much any device..it just works so well.

Getting to that level on a completely new base is no easy feat, so let's see what happens rather than speculate.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] FreshlyBaked 420:
This A11 build and the A12 build you posted are not maintained by the same person.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] ewong3:
but could that mean that further A11 dev will likely discontinue given A12 is already live?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dlads:
Not really, we don't have a 12 firmware so it's a missmatch of 11 with 12s system and other required files, but the base is not 12.

Until it is we won't have a real 12 ROM..

At the moment for me all 12 ROMs aren't fit for purpose as the camera is using AOSP sources.

Wait for the OOS cam to be integrated correctly.

Latest oos is 11.0.10.10 until that's a 12 and you have flashed it, all 12 ROMs are going to be lacking
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] tejkumarvusirikala:
Do you mean that, a stable oos 12 is required for the cam to work correctly in aosp 12?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dlads:
Anything's possible I suppose but I would say that it would help to be on 12 as a base prior to attempting to port an oos camera APK and supporting files when it's the same android version.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] AnierinB:
Official A12 builds are coming soon, just ironing a few things out. The constant whining and ETA's are rather annoying, so please refrain from doing so and keep in mind my life doesn't revolve around Android.

do i still need to be on OOS 11 for this alt method to work?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dlads:
You need to be on 11 period mate.

As it's based on 11.

Check my post #76 for clearer instructions
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] GbnrVR:
pretty much your saying i can be on any A11 rom to install this rom? another question what is the best kernel for this rom
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dlads:
No I'm saying you should be on 11. Not betas, versions will have varying results based on how efficient they are but ultimately yes you could in theory be on any 11 ROM, I would update to 10.10 then install it.

Kernel?

There is no best kernel, it's apples and oranges.

I use stock, it works
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] sam00561:
is the Telegram channel locked intentioanlly. I have just moved to Op8 and i found the Evox telegram channel but the very thing of chatting in a chat group is blocked for some reason.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] FreshlyBaked 420:
Yup admins locked it. Too many people asking ETA/ When questions. Rather than ban or kick those people they locked it. And funny enough a couple admins had a bit of a discussion about something on the locked group about something non Evo related. One of admins left TG for some "time off".
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] sam00561:
Oh that's not a good situation I thought it was an unspoken rule not to ask eta etc. I just wanted to know about battery life Sot and if the rom passes safety net without having to root. I'm happy using Android 11 version they seem to be misty stable anyway.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Linuxpenguin:
The admins of the telegram group seem to be on a power trip with the prolonged locking.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] istariwhite:
is anyone having same problem with me? I just flashed this, and noticed fingerprint doesn't work anymore? finger print scanner doesn't show up, nothing even if I move my fingers all around to find it. it actually is convinced its google pixel and trying to do pixel imprint instead of fingerprint. not sure what happened here.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] gsser:
It has nothing to do with power tripping, it is just because some people insist on being overzealous even when they are told to not ask ETA for many times but they just keep doing it.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] gsser:
That was unnecessary tbh, usual xda drama in TG feels bad
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] tejkumarvusirikala:
Just do a clean flash
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] FoxyDrew:
I agree, the group has been closed going on 2 weeks, just because ppl were asking for ETAs. A bit excessive. I know devs HATE etas - and trust me I feel for that - but it comes with the territory if we're being honest. If you think you can stop the annoying wenETA folks you're the millionth to try and will be the millionth to fail.

Not to mention dev said he'd release A12 build on Christmas - over a month before Christmas. Then just kinda ghosted everyone when the 25th came around. Why do that to yourself and put a release date on it at all? I know the dev has a life and has no obligation to release anything for anyone, but when you start the hype for a release a whole month early - for the most popular ROM on the forum - and then completely ghost, are you surprised people were asking about the release? I'm not saying asking wenETA will EVER be okay....but if it were to ever be okay, it would be in that exact situation.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dlads:
They give timelines due to people moaning about ETA's, to make them hopefully stop it.... life gets in the way...so if you need to know who's at fault for the origin of why the dev would assume it's fair to provide a date.... Then look at the people who are asking for ETA's in the first place..

Overall has there been such a difference between android 10 and 11? Does anyone think 12 is going to bring some kind of megalithic update that we absolutely have to have right now? No it won't, it'll be a shell change which will offer very little in regards to functionality, the odd tweak here and there but not much more, in fact battery will probably be worse, maybe performance and we may even lose features; in all honesty asking for an update doesn't merit the absolute crap it brings with it.

If people haven't worked that out by now then they're beyond helping.

Just to be clear, of course I'd like to have the latest and greatest, but someone else is doing this for me, they owe me nothing, I don't even know their first name, favorite colour, if they're dealing with turmoil in their life or if they have a really hard life in general, so until THEY decide to release anything, I'm more than happy with what I have right now.

If anyone is selfish enough to think they're owed more than exactly that then they're very much mistaken.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Timmmmaaahh!:
Before this discussion derails I should probably mention that it has caught my attention.

Spoiler content hidden.

Just please – pretty double please – don't let the Telegram drama seep into XDA threads. Of course, we feel your pain and we all want something shiny and new (even though it's not always an improvement, as stated above) but it's really important to give our valuable developers the space they need.

This is mostly correct. The hairs of seasoned XDA members rise upon reading any "NEW VERSION WHEN?!" comment but there's ETA requesting and there's ETA requesting. A friendly "would there happen to be any new version in the making?" when a thread has been quiet for a while doesn't harm anyone. In the end it's all about respect.

Thank you all, best wishes for 2022 and stay safe!

[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dlads:
I wouldn't advise this, as a friendly "is there anything currently being developed" will soon turn into, "when will it be ready?"

And you're back to square one..

Either way. I think everyone gets the message.

Personally don't think telegram should even be used on XDA, too much information gets lost to it, but that's me.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] FoxyDrew:
Why will it soon turn into that? Why would it unless we as a community let it? That was his point is that if we all keep it civil it's just fine. There absolutely isn't any issue in asking for information in a genuine way. The toxic and unappreciative wenETA people have set a false president on XDA that ANY form of asking for ANY type of info in ANY way is absolutely prohibited because "developers have lives"

That's obviously a simple minded way to look at it. There's a right way to handle things, and a wrong way to handle things. Just because the wrong way exists, doesn't mean the right way should also be prohibited because "it will always inevitability end up being the wrong way" - no I have faith in people.

Unfortunately when a thread has thousands upon thousand of views and hundreds of people daily driving the ROM, it only takes the loud minority of a few people to P a developer off.

[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dlads:
:( Not going to a answer beyond this.

The reason it'll evolve into something else is because that's how the world works, one person sees a simple question written with courtesy and emulates it, another views their question and emulates that, each time a little change happens. Before long it's gone from courtesy to demanding..

Don't ask for ETA's, its rude and taboo, there's no middle ground as it all means the same thing. As nice as people are per person, you can't expect everybody to be thoughtful of others, which is why

rules are created.

As asking for ETA's isn't an actual rule, it would fall under courtesy in my opinion.

I'll continue to not ask for ETA's because I have manners, you do as you wish.

If you need to have the last say on the matter then go ahead, I surprised that this is even being discussed, I'd prefer to not take any more of the thread up so am open to a private discussion if needs be.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] FoxyDrew:

So when's the next update out :D

Jkin
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] tejkumarvusirikala:
Ohh God!! Please don't piss off the dev. Let him do his work. I already asked an indirect eta once and I'm thankful that he replied to that. I'm sure that he is working on it and would not want to release a buggy rom, so he is taking time. Let him take his time, I'm sure that the rom, when it comes out would be damn stable.

My respect and thanks to the dev for putting his free time to contribute to the community.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] istariwhite:
yeah clean flash did the trick. thanks.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] istariwhite:
actually, finger print reader went away when I activated smart lock - and came back when I disabled it. looks like smart lock disables finger print reader - is this known defect?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dlads:
Flashed this ROM back on my 8 pro.

Such a smooth experience compared to OOS, it's just brilliant.

Best ROM on the 8 pro by a country mile.

👍
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dlads:
Just realised @AnierinB you are doing the OnePlus 9 forum too?

Damn mate, that's dedication that bud.

I had a peek over the fence at the pixel 6 pro, apparently plagued with issues, forums are in disarray, physical screen problems, screen colour issues, plus the battery won't be as good as what we have here.

Plus I've been pushing my 8 pro with overclocks and it's comparable if not better than my wife's Sammy flip which I believe has an 888 in it.

So for me, there's no need to jump yet, I think the 8 pro was one of the last great android devices.. sort of ticks every box.

Coupled with this ROM, it's the whole package.

Glad I moved back 😂
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] sam00561:
I noticed this too i think maybe it is meant to be like that because when u have location to keep unlocked or trusted device then FP not really required.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] istariwhite:
Yes, no need for FP to unlock the phone since its already unlocked - but there are many applications that uses fingerprint authentication, and when using smart lock fp doesn't work on any of those applications, it makes logging into those applications a lot more cumbersome. Probably not a deal breaker, but I certainly hope this is in the known defect list so it can be fixed at some point.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] sam00561:
Not here although smart lock is on and I don't need to use for unlocking phone in certain apps im using it still asks for Fp to unlock the app.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] istariwhite:
huh. Not sure what happened in my case. I have smart lock off because of that.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dlads:
It's there a way on this ROM to disable permissions for Google?

I'm getting a little worried, keep getting stories based on things in watching on my TV that are not linked to any account of mine.

For example I've never had any lord of the rings stories come up on my Google feed and have never had to Google LOTR in my life, let alone recently.

I watched the desolation of smaug yesterday and today (check screen shot) coincidence? Maybe... But I've had a lot more than just this occurrence, we were talking about sheep the other week, Shaun the sheep namely and how weird sheep are, was quite funny.

Next day, stories about sheep dogs and different kinds of sheep started popping up.

Anyway, would love to disable the mic for Google if I could, can't remember not being able to do this on OOS.

It's there a way?

Cheers
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] enjoy_life:
You can disable the mic via the app named App Ops (available on Google Play).
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dlads:
Oh really, cheers ace
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] GbnrVR:
does this ROM come with a custom kernel if not what is the best one for the rom thank you
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dlads:
This is all the info I have on the kernel that comes installed (see screenshot)

I tried elemental X and it bootlooped, so don't bother with that one.

I've just stuck with what it comes with, as it's fast and battery's good..
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dlads:
I gave this a shot but it wanted riru to be installed, not completely comfortable with having xposed on my phone.

Will keep digging
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dlads:
I don't personally use AOD but that sounds like that transition from the lockscreen/AOD to normal usage.

I just tested it and it didn't happen for me?

Weird
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dlads:
They're excellent shots..defo share that XML with me if you don't mind
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] nikc0069:
Ah you are THE nrg! Excellent xml files. Your xml for bsg made it something else. If I can get pay issues sorted then I'll be on this too I think. Seems roms have come quite a way in the last few months. Just need some time which I might not have for around a week.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] enerGy:
Hey bud, yea that's me and glad your enjoying it :) I don't use pay so that's not a deal breaker for me for now. Yes it seemed a little slow to start as I said I seen many with issues that I didn't want to move over for but now in this ones case anyway hopefully good to go.I'm off this weekend finally so get a chance to get on this and also look at BSG again to sort Tele color more so
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Imprezzion:
I didn't test on this specific build yet but older builds did have it. OOS doesn't do that. And yes it's related to the transition not blocking touch from AOD which OOS does and you have to let go and touch the screen again to register it which is how it should be.

If I'm bored grinding mining tomorrow on RS3 I'll flash it.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dlads:
They're excellent shots..defo share that XML with me if you don't mind

Yea didn't happen for me man..

Should be ok
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] AnierinB:
No need to delete. I enjoy seeing people converse about the ROM and it's performance overall (along with cams and such). Great to hear y'all are enjoying it :)

#KeepEvolving
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dlads:
Its a beast mate, seriously well done on it.

The CRT was what triggered my interest.. But the rest will keep me on it.

Now finding out about the gcam capabilities it's reopened this phone up for me..

Superb
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dlads:
Ok so the connectivity issues I thought I was having. I think they're router related..so nothing to do with the ROM just a coincidence i believe.

Drainage overnight was around 1-2%

After the first night I think I can improve on that.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Imprezzion:
Shame. Same thing. I was kind of afraid of it. Must have something to do with my locale or whatever..

OK Google / Hey Google not working (neither after update of play servcies). It shows enabled in voice match, it lets me retrain, but doesn't respond to voice commands. This happens in all custom ROM's. OOS works.

Also, the fingerprint from AOD touch stuff also happens as well. It keeps opening Chrome as soon as I unlock with FP from AOD just like all other custom ROMs. It HAS to be something related to my phone since appearantly no one else has this issue.. I just wouldn't know what. It's a stock EU OP8Pro Unlocked, latest OOS flashed everything..
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] rodbacon:
Can you access 48MP res?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dlads:
I don't believe so no. 12MP so far as I can tell.

I'll be honest though. I never used the 48MP, couldn't zoom or use flash (iirc)
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dlads:
Can you explain it again for me please and I'll test it thoroughly.

If the issue doesn't happen on OOS for you then it won't be your phone..

Us replicating it may be the issue.

Have you flashed another kernel? Have you turned anything on like pocket detection?

Or are you at absolute stock (Evo X)
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Imprezzion:
Absolutely stock, not even rooted. Just flash it, wipe, boot into OS, set up basic Google stuff. Then go into lock screen settings and enable AOD. No other options like ppcket detection or horizon lights or whatever. Only 1 finger registred.

Then lock the phoine with the button or let it lock with timeout, place finger on FP icon. let it unlock but don't remove or mvoe finger from the screen, just keep it there until the homescreen shows. Now move your finger without having lifted it. Does the homescreen move? If it does the touch detection block isn't working. It might also open the long press menu if you have an app under twhere the icon normally is. Try this at least 3-4 times as it doesn't always fail.

I tried AICP newest build, it does the same. Then I tried Havoc 4.5 latest, it works fine there. Touch is blocked after AOD FP as it should be.

What also doesn't work at all is google assistent. I can set up voice match, I can set up hey google with the slider, but it doesn't recognize any voice commands at all (hey google / ok google). This also does not work on 99% of all custom ROMs when OOS works fine. Even Havoc with included GApps doesn't work with OK Google.

EDIT: Lineage latest build also behaves normally with AOD and fingerprint. It also does NOT work with MindTheGApps (Lineage's own recommended GApps) with OK Google. Doesn't do anything like every AOSP ROM.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] jdfrye2:
Thanks for this! But I got alittle concerned after sideloading I realized after rebooting into EvoX that in the cmd prompt after sideloading it had only gotten to 47% and said: "adb failed to read command: no error" But im currently booted up and everything seems to be fine. Is this normal or should I be worried about fixing adb and starting over?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dlads:
Haha no worries man.

Glad to help.

Is OK google generally broken on this rom or just for a few people?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] AnierinB:
Ok Google works just fine. Update to the latest beta of the google app
