Quick questions on OTA (I see a new update):

1. Does it keep magisk or do I need to reflash?

2. Does it need EvoX recovery or can it use LOS recovery (I needed this to flash Magisk because it fails the check in EvoX recovery)?

3. Any worries about losing data? Do I need to backup to the nth degree or is this process now smooth and error free mostly?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] :
Hello,

I'm thniking to move to EvoX ROM.

Please, can you let me know if Play Store says "Device Certified" or not and if GPay and banking apps are working properly (without root) out of the box or if I need to root or use Magisk?

Thanks
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] devsk:
I have magisk because I needed root. The play store says certified. Haven't tried gpay because I don't use it but other banking apps work fine. I had trouble with HSBC, which worked only on my P3XL
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] enjoy_life:
Dolby Atmos has absolutely no effect when listening to music in Spotify. Whether it's turned on or off, no effect on sound. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Edit: works after latest update
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] gherbert:
Is there any way to remove the white line in the bottom of display?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] :
At Settings -> System -> Gestures -> System navigation -> Gestures navigation

check "full screen gestures"
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] petes:
You don't need root for play store, gpay, banking etc.. I'm running the current EvoX on my 8T, unrooted and everything works fine. The only slight funny thing is 2 apps (Barclays Bank and the NHS app in the UK) don't like fingerprints - they work fine, but biometrics don't work. GPay and all my other apps work fine with biometrics though.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Julien Gontier:
This rom is amazing wow

After having multiple bug on OxygenOS 12, which was the worst update ever that i had on any phone, i've decided to install this rom for my OnePlus 8, and it freaking amazing.

Really a BIG BIG thank you @AnierinB for this rom, i really like it ^^

One question/suggestion, would it be possible on a future update (or now with root) to have the possiblity to disable Dolby Atmos and the Papers app?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] devsk:
anybody who has done OTA update, got any inputs on this? Really appreciate the help.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] MariusKv:
Unhide your magisk manager before updating)

* When you install the OTA, don't reboot, simply open Magisk Manager and click on the first "install" button then "install to inactive slot" and once it's done, reboot and enjoy.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] devsk:
Thanks for that info. How about the mindthegapps? Never mind....they are in the ROM itself.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] gherbert:
Tried that. But always come back with white line again. Need to select any other type of navigation, and come back to full screen gestures. Maybe, any bug in full screen gestures, or a combination of configurations of my system.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] enjoy_life:
OOS camera works for me on the latest build. Maybe try a reflash?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] enjoy_life:
@AnierinB while watching an HDR video the screen brightness lowers significantly and the original brightness level doesn't go back until the reboot. Is this a known issue?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] antisoma:
Just want to say thank you very much for this rom. What a pleasure to have things like this - thanks for all your hard work. Donation sent.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] AnierinB:
Yes. Will look into it eventually
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] cloudreamer:
I try the latest version today, thank you.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] vip77:
VoLTE and WiFI calling not working in latest build.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] petes:
I think they're working, but the icons aren't working. Try putting flight mode on, turn on wifi, and see if you get VoWiFi - that seems to work for me, so I think it may just be icons. @AnierinB , this seems to be a bug introduced in the most recent build - previous one showed the icons cirrectly.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] vip77:
nah. i checked in call history. No WiFi and HD icons. Also no internet during call.

Rebooted several times. Also tried flight mode. No result.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] petes:
No, I don't see any icons, but I can call with flight mode on, and only wifi enabled, so wifi calling must be working I think
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] AnierinB:
Working fine here on TMO US. Icons show as they should be as well.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] vip77:
What would you advise to do in my situation?

Also ipv6 not working (
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] petes:
Hmm - bit more playing. The icons seems to get "stuck" for me. So, initially, no VoWiFi or VoLTE icons, but I'm connected fine. Then, reboot System UI, and I get VoWiFi icons. Turn off WiFi, and VoWiFi icons stay displayed, and no 4G icon (since there's now no wifi, it should be showing 4G). Reboot System UI again, and VoLTE and 4G icons are displayed. It's not completely stuck though - re-enabing WiFi just now, I got VoWiFi showing.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] vip77:
Not helped :(
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] star7827:
Having the same issue here.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] star7827:
I hope the transparency features of both the QS and lock screen is available again in the next update.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] star7827:
I can't see any difference when I enable the 240hz for all apps in the game mode section. Did anyone notice any difference?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] AnierinB:
That's touchscreen sampling rate, not display refresh rate. Lol
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Flash1337:
You can try settings, display, minimum refresh rate. Or use AutoHz from arter97 (if that still works), its in the play store.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] gherbert:
How can I hide battery icon? Is there any way?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Flash1337:
Settings-evolver-status bar - battery icon
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] gherbert:
Didn't find the hide option. Only to change battery icons
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] devsk:
Has anybody looked at improving battery life on this ROM?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] jiehao258:
Camera wide angle 0.6 can not be used
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] capsali:
It has been discussed before. You need to disable ultra wide lens correction from the camera settings for the ultrawide lens to work.

On another note, would it be possible to have a toggle to disable wireless charging?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] jiehao258:
Thanks for the answer

Turn off the correction of the wide angle

Solved
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] AnierinB:
Yeah, I can make one.

Try running this cmd in an adb shell with root privileges:

echo 0 > proc/wireless/enable_rx

and let me know if it disables wireless charging.

To re enable:

echo 1 > proc/wireless/enable_rx

Edit: Works. I'll code the toggle later tonight
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Maruli:
Yeah, I've read that article but it's not what I mean. The quality is significantly lower if "HD Audio" or AAC is set in bluetooth settings. Even SBC sounds 10x better in comparison. I had no issue with any OOS version and even with the buggy paranoid android alphas. Same phone, same car but different ROM...that's why I was wondering...
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] devsk:
Hey @AnierinB , did you get the chance to look into this? The idle drain is very high on this ROM. I think this may be something that's keeping the phone awake.

With OOS 11, I never needed to charge the phone during the day (it would go from full to 40% or so by the end of the day) but with this ROM, I have to put it on the charger in the evening.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Melcore127:
Does anyone have a problem with the finger print sometimes it just outright says clean ur sensor and doesn't work ,will only work again after a restart

[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] AdmiralKirk:
So, as anecdotal as this evidence is, I'll give it nonetheless. I am currently running the latest version of this ROM, and I usually average around 3-5 hours of screen time in a given day. After all of that, when I go to plug my phone in at the end of the day, it's usually around 40% still (so about 3-5 hours of screen time with about 15 hours total time since last charged). I always see people talking about battery life issues with new ROMs and while I have definitely seen a bug or two in ROM's that can cause poor battery life, much more often (like closer to 98% of the time) it's an app or modification the user has made after the ROM was flashed. I can also tell you with how often this turns out to be a user issue, if you want the Dev's to take it seriously, you'll need to prove that it happens on a completely virgin, unmodified ROM flash with no installed or restored apps or user configurations. Again, that's just my experience, so take it all with the requisite grain of salt.

[OnePlus 8 Pro, Latest Evo X]

1. Feature request: Can we get Pavlova UI icons for status bar? (SS attached from another ROM)

2. Status bar Icon pack doesn't get applied to battery icon.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] devsk:
Fair enough. Although, in my defense, I am comparing the exact same set of apps with exact same settings. So, it is an apples to apples comparison that way. But yeah, its complicated.

Has anybody tried a different kernel with this ROM?

Also, are the kernel changes for this ROM available somewhere on github? I might spin my own at some point.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] AnierinB:
Comparing OOS 11 and a custom ROM is not an "apples to apples comparison". Not in regards to performance, but due to the fact the implementations are completely different between the two as well as the framework altogether. Your ideology regarding this is completely invalid.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] devsk:
That's what I meant when I said "but its complicated". Its apples to apples from apps/settings/usage perspective but underneath a lot has changed with this ROM. And the goal would be to find if something in those changes is what is triggering worse battery life for the same set of apps/settings/usage.

Is the kernel running in this ROM updated to the latest from OOS 11 kernel sources?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] :
I thought the battery life was pretty bad the first couple days after installing it but it seems to have leveled out. I'm getting a full days use and more with sot between 9 &10 hours. For me it's pretty good and I know sot is relative to ones use.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] AdmiralKirk:
I think it's been posted in the past, but a bit of googling awhile back turned up a solid handful of the relevant Repo's. Evo's repo layout is very similar to Lineage's (aren't they all). I'll post a link to the ones I generally keep an eye on. I usually keep an eye on this and Lineage's repo (device specific as well). Thiers also a Telegram channel (several actually) for EvoX and for our device specifically that has occasionally good info on it. I think that's posted somewhere in this thread as well. Again, I only check the repo's to keep an eye on how development is going and out of curiosity, never tried to lunch my own ROM, so you may need more than listed below to accomplish that.

[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] :
Thank you so much for this rom. Been using it all week and its just perfect for me. I love it so much. By far my favorite rom
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] devsk:
@AnierinB I just updated with the 0521 OTA and the OOS camera is still crashing. Any ideas? Do I need to dirty flash it from 'adb sideload'?

Have you even tried clearing the data for the application? It's working completely fine here.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] devsk:
Yes. That was the first thing I tried.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] devsk:

Definitely not. I suggest clean flashing the ROM
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] devsk:
How are you so sure?....:giggle: The crash happened after OTA. Camera was working before the OTA. So, OTA caused the issue, right?

Anyways...I dirty flashed the ROM again from recovery and it works fine now.

It is just me or speaker audio quality sounds worse when playing music than stock oos11?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] enjoy_life:
It's not just you. It's definitely the case, but some deaf people in this thread didn't agree and advised to turn on Dolby Atmos, lol.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] enjoy_life:
Well, you are wrong. 900 Mhz mode is activated only in games. By getting the maximum frequency back to stock you ain't saving any battery %. If you're playing games, be ready for heavy battery usage anyway. I would take higher performance in games over 1-3% of saved battery due to stock frequency.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] devsk:
hmm...but it seems to have used that power state as per state transition data in /sys. In my system, it went from 305 to 900 N number of times, then step-wise went down N number of times to each of the lower frequencies until the target frequency of 305.

I didn't play any games on this ROM yet. So, apparently you are the one who is wrong here!
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Lifusiek:
So far battery look much worse compared to oos11, after 4hours od listening to music @bt headset with LTE on and Galaxy watch connected i lost 32% compared to about 20% on oos11. Hope that battery life improves after a few days od usage.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] :
Mine did. It got progressively better till the 3rd day and I'm personally satisfied. I almost flashed evo Android 11 but honestly was too tired and got lazy. Happy I didn't.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] abdel khalis:
will it works by flashing on adb sideload ?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Lifusiek:
Idle usage is top much i think. I lost 15% in 4hours with everything off and no apps on background.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] devsk:
do you have AOD on?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Lifusiek:
Yeah but its still seems too much
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] devsk:
Do you have Idle Manager on in Battery settings?

> Yeah but its still seems too much

Yeah, that's true. If you have AOD on, the idle usage is high in this ROM, not because of AOD itself. I think there is a driver bug where its firing all kinds of sensors including SMD, which is only supposed to fire when you move the phone.

Basically, doze is not able to freeze everything down during idle.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Lifusiek:
Yeah idle manager was off, will test again later.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] :

I turn on "always on display", if I lock my phone and put it into my pocket, then i can't unlock my phone by fingerprint unless I light the screen. Does anybody face the same problems?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] devsk:
Known issue and no solution so far. For me, even double tap does not wake it up from that state sometimes.

Best solution I have found is to disable AOD (lol) and enable single-tap to AOD shortcut. That reliably works whether the phone is on desk or coming out of pocket. Its one additional tap but at least I don't have to press a bunch of buttons while trying to unlock the phone.

I am currently on Derpfest rom. If I want to switch to different custom rom like Evolution X

1. Do I have to everytime wipe all data including internal storage or it was just when we moved to first custom rom from OOS 11.

2. i don't have to flash patched boot.img if installing this rom? Will my bootloader be still unlocked? Also i can flash magisk to get root access

3. I have orangefox recovery installed currently. Will I be able to flash evolution X from Orangefox recovery

Please someone enlighten so I have a clarity as I want to make sure to not stuck in bootloop again
