Great rom I've enjoy using it...

My findings:

AOD works well for me when I use it. But I do not since it is well known that Pixel has an issue with the Adaptive brightness and seems to be too bright at night and too dim during the day... Works right at times, then it does not. Many posts on the Pixel devices, so my guess is this Rom carries it over since it is Pixel based. I just turn it off

The finger reader is the same with AOD it will not always pick up the finger, although it tells me to press firmly. So there is a Pixel issue with the finger reader. So I turn it off. My screen unlocks each time with a blank screen, but I wish I could keep using the AOD.

This is my on/off experience I am NOT saying this is for all users and their experience
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Staff9643:
Hello. Why does the AOD go out 3-4 seconds after the screen is locked?

Anyone else seen this happened:

When you switch between apps (on recents manager) and you tap on another app, it freezes for about 2-3 secs and then im able to scroll or keep using the app ...is this something I can configure or is the default behaviour? Thanks in advance

Thank you for your help, and also for the work on this awesome project.

So I just have to wait for it to be solved ?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] scorpio76r:
Don't hold your breath, I don't think that this was done by an error. Google does not really like us rooted people. They even have the magisk creater employeed by them.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Staff9643:
Thank you! This solves the problem on 9R. When a new assembly is released, does this file interfere with the update?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] AnierinB:
No, it will not interfere with the update process.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] iplop:
So even if I didn't upgrade, I would have the issue ?

I don't understand what changed that lead Google to flag my device. Maybe if I go back to a previous version ?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] scorpio76r:
Edit *

Are you running anything else besides the rom? I used the Pixify magisk module last week on my phone and, I thought all was good until I got banned from the Pennsylvania online lottery when I tried to make a purchase. I assumed that it was the module. I'm still on the rom build before the latest Feb build.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] iplop:
Thank for your help. No, I use only the ROM.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] scorpio76r:
You are welcomed and, sorry to hear about your issue.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] D€INOS:
Thanks for the early fix, this works good.

The brightness flash in the recent build/builds is a shame, it's less jarring when disabling raise to wake when using AoD always on.

Hello everyone,

So I have a issue with my phone (oneplus 8pro IN 2023), it's freezing 1-3 times a day and after this I have to force restart my phone. I made clean flashing many times with EVOLUTION and after that I tried with different custom ROMS (LINEAGEOS AND CRDROID) to try fix this problem, but the problem is still there... I was thinking the problem was with my hardware issues, I flashed stock ROMS and I used it for a week with no problems.

Does anyone has any idea why it's happening and how to fix it because i tried so many times asking different people in chats but none of them told me any solution about it and I hope I will find answer here
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] moccor:
Since before phones started using "slots" I haven't kept up much with the custom ROM stuff. Does the ROM have to be flashed twice in step 2? I seen a lot of "flash, then flash again" nowadays but just wanted to be safe

Dear Anierin. You made a great rom, thank you for your efforts. I want something from you. Can you add the feature in the link? very important for security. There is no firewall in the rom.

Guys, I have installed this rom on op 8T and I have used magisk 25. Also installed Shamiko & Universal Safety net to bypass. My device is certified in play store and all safetynet passes. However I am unable to see certain apps in play store, even though they are installed in my mobile. For example "Snapchat" & "Instagram". When i search for these apps in play store I sometimes get "This app wont work for your device". What can i do to fix this? Any help would be great!
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Drigio:
Does 5g work on your device if your network is from India region?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] D€INOS:
For me the RAM-managment is really aggressive, don't know if this is a Android 13 issue since I've mostly used Oxygen Os 11 and a bit OOS 13 using pinned apps.

But recently used apps closes regular in the background, this is observed when re-opening of said apps where the cold launch animation is shown.

I haven't found any way to mitigate this but have tried a bunch of things.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] devsk:
This is a google issue. Android is killing and restarting services all the time. This contributes to a big battery drain as well.

Just grep for "Killing" in the logcat and you will understand what I mean. More than 900 Kills in few hours, which means its just killing a service, and starting it right back up a little later, killing it again and starting it up again and so on....This has been done to aggressively reclaim memory, even when there is no memory pressure. One workaround I have found is to Restrict certain apps but Android still finds lots of services to keep doing this with.

And to think this happens on a 12GB memory phone is totally ridiculous! This is something that google needs to focus on. Not a fault of this ROM or this dev.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] D€INOS:
Thank you for this explanation 🙂 , food to know that it's a Google thing.

And yeah, there is no memory shortage looking at the data in development settings under memory, even when looking at cached processes.

How did you go about "Restrict certain apps" ?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] devsk:
Note that killing and later forking tasks uses CPU and hence battery.

Its just about keeping some of the apps out of memory and not having them restart. So, let's say you have 10 apps in your phone. Android is going to try to kill and restart on a periodic basis, almost all of them and services associated with them. But if you put 5 of those apps (which you prefer not to start and sit in the background) in App Info->App Battery Usage->Restricted, you have told Android to not keep restarting those apps. You have essentially reduced the Android System battery usage.

But you have achieved more: You obviously don't want to restrict your favorite app but everything else. If you restricted 8 out of 10 apps, 2 of your favorite apps will now likely stay in memory. In fact, you can put those 2 apps as Unrestricted instead of Optimized, which is the default for most apps.

Be careful with this though. You don't want to restrict apps whose notifications you don't want to miss.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] D€INOS:
Thanks, I see what you mean, it's a bit what I've found as well, but changing a few one-time apps to restricted is a good idea to keep 4-5 of my favorites alive.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Flash1337:
Just use (App Ops) from the store. Amazing app that gives you controle of what to restrict etc.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] ciku720:
I've got the same since about a week. Flashing yesterday's build didn't help.

I discovered this problem with Facebook Messanger. It works fine when installed from apk file, however Google Play says it's not suitable for this phone.

On the latest build for the 8T (evolution_kebab-ota-tq1a.230205.002-02090203-unsigned.zip), Call Screening is missing from the Google Dialer. On the January update, sometimes this would happen and force closing Google Dialer fixed the issue, but now that doesn't work anymore. I confirmed with another person on the 8T this is happening.

Would be a lot more Evox users coming from Lineage if there was a Vanilla build available. Just some food for thought!
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Flash1337:
There's plenty of Rom restaurants on the marked, so it's not about whats missing on the menu, if one does not enjoy the dish, they can go else where. Not really that hard.

The real question is, what makes one enter the front door, just to tell the owner that they think, it need something special on the shelf, when there are flyers of guides (how to build a rom), that they could (or should) put their own free time into instead. Good day to you tho 👍
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] JedidroidX:
I will try the rom and do my best to debloat the Google spyware. I have read very good things about the rom and I like the active development. What I know for sure is that any rom without Google will run better and that's a fact. MicroG has come very far and supports almost all Google dependent apps... Good day to you as well!

For anybody interested in debloating Google there is an interesting script that may give write access to the system partition that will allow full debloat on Android 13 and I believe the Oneplus 8T is supported.

You're fine. Releases are out now, enjoy
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] ciku720:
There is an annoying bug introduced in today's update. When an app is displayed on the full screen, the status and nav bars are hidden but their "collision"/touch area remains above the app. When a button near the top or right edge of the screen is tapped, not only the full screen app doesn't react to it but also when this spot is tapped for the second time, the phone locks (just like I'd double tapped the status bar).

This behavior is confirmed with two different full-screen games and wasn't happening till today's update. Phone restart doesn't help.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] moccor:
Does anybody have a reliable official Oneplus link for the OP8 USB drivers? I am on the Latest A13 and it never shows up as a CD, even though it does show its name fine and it shows up in adb devices, it doesn't show up in fastboot devices so I just want to make sure the correct driver is installed.

All I find are random file hosting links and a sus "oneplususbdrivers" website. I am very surprised Oneplus doesn't have a easily accessible location for something so small. I made a fresh Ubuntu live, but when I would do "./fastboot devices" it the command wouldn't work, so apparently both OS are headaches
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] AnierinB:
@moccor

Use the official google driver's as pointed out in post #3 of this thread.

[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] ciku720:
The bug I mentioned earlier seems to be present in all fullscreen apps. Even in YouTube I'm unable to use any of the upper controls. Literally, nothing happens when any of the buttons in red area is tapped once. When it's tapped twice, the phone locks and the screen goes black.

As I said, it's not a youtube bug but rather any fullscreen app.

Could anyone confirm it also happens to them, please?

BTW. Thank you very much @AnierinB for such a great Rom! I'm using it daily since July, always keeping up to date and actually this is the first issue which I'd consider as "major", at least for me.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] scorpio76r:
Your mention of this issue and, the fact that you are not receiving any feedback on this issue has me hesitant on taking the the lastest update. As of right now, I don't have any issues with the build right before the latest update.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] D€INOS:
I checked with Bromine , vertical fullscreen on a YouTube video, yeah the upper buttons doesn't register

I see that we no longer can delete screenshots in the nottificaion bar...is this a bug or intended? I used to send screenshots and delete them right away
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Nords99:
One minor bug I've found, though I'm not sure if it's just this ROM or OnePlus phones in general:

When enabling grayscale via digital wellbeing > bedtime mode, the lockscreen remains unaffected. Immediately after unlocking the phone, everything goes back to grayscale, but as long as the lockscreen remains locked full color is present. This also occurs using the 'monochromacy' setting under Dev options > simulate color space - so it doesn't seem to be an issue with the digital wellbeing settings themselves, nor the monochromacy setting.

From what I've seen googling my issue, it seems like it's an issue with the UDFPS, though if there's any way to maintain the integrity of that while still allowing grayscale/monochromacy to apply to the lock screen, that'd be much appreciated!

Everything else about this ROM is pretty much flawless, thank you for your work Anierin!
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] AnierinB:
That's not a bug, it's intended behavior. The kernel disables all color transformations (e.g nightlight, grayscale, extra dim, etc) when dimlayer_hbm is enabled, which is enabled on LS when udfps is set up (This behavior also happens on Stock). We do however have an impl in our framework that essentially does the same thing for night light, though we've just reverted it.

Jabashque, the LOS OP8 dev is working on some changes that only disables color transformations when the udfps circle is pressed. That will make it's way into builds sometime in the coming days.

Has anyone else been experiencing issues with video-over-USB-C on the 8T? Based on the research I've done, it hasn't worked on this device since OnePlus released the first OOS 12 beta ROMs on the 8T (still not functional even now after FW upgrade). And if my memory is correct it did still function on OOS11 and Android 11-based ROMs.

Any hope for the display over USB-C feature to return on kebab? Is it something that can be fixed/reimplemented only by OnePlus? (They probably would not do it)

Updated to 7.0 a couple days ago and was very surprised with how smooth and put together it was for being such a new release! I updated to the 8/25 build this morning and it's only gotten better. My phone is running way smoother than it was on the 6.x builds so very impressed. Great job Anierinb!!
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] rjpoisonoak:
Hello everybody. As I mentioned before the 7.0 builds are great! However since going to 7.0 this new icon just left of my wifi icon in the status bar has appeared. I have no idea what it is so any insight to that would be great as well as how to hide it. Hiding all the other icons through the evolver settings works perfectly fine though!

[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] rjpoisonoak:

Yep, flash latest.

[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] rjpoisonoak:
On the latest I guess I'm just blind and missed that toggle somehow! Thanks a lot for all the effort you put into this. One thing I've noticed since the 6.x builds I wanted to bring to your attention is the night light intensity. The scheduling and everything works great but even at the lowest intensity setting the screen has a super heavy tint and turning it up makes the screen incredibly orange. Not a major deal but wanted to bring it to your attention just in case you weren't aware
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Datzi:
Well its been a long time since I used custom ROMs. Right now I am on EvoX 6.7 (Android 12 based, with updated Firmware which was needed for 6.6 to 6.7). First post states when coming from 6.7 I have to "format data" after flashing the ROM. This means loosing all data on my devices, does it? Or do I keep the data?

Thanks for your answers!

edit: Thanks to AnierinB. EvoX is miles ahead of whatever Onplus is doing right now. There a few quirks but overall EvoX offers a great experience and good stability.
