[Google Pixel 6] w_tapper:
yeah i do the same, but some apps require strong integrity, which you cant get without a locked bootloader
[Google Pixel 6] catcatjpg:
the only downside for me is that it comes with some google apps predownloaded :( oh well i can probably find a way to get rid of some of them
[Google Pixel 6] GROOVYJOSHCLARK:
Interesting, can you give me an example so I can reverse engineer it and see if I can get it working? I just need a bank app that uses strong integrity, because I can't find one that doesn't work (and I use a few different banking apps for my business and personal), so ideally you will tell me a bank that doesn't work. Then I'll go through it and see what's up. I have gotten around the BL unlocked (check) many times before, so I want to stab at this as well.
[Google Pixel 6] GROOVYJOSHCLARK:
I am LOVING this ROM, it's been almost a full week of use, not a single bug or hiccup. OTA works as does manually updating through adb so I have tested breaking boot and restoring boot with adb / update manually. This means I have full control over the device and can test/break the OS and boot as needed (to help others) and still return to the OS without a wipe. This is good, very good, and even more stable than I found LOS to be.

Again very well done AnierinB!

[Google Pixel 6] GROOVYJOSHCLARK:
Ahh thanks, I will stab at it! My only concern is that a Vietnam app/bank, I may not be able to replicate in the US, but I'll try!
[Google Pixel 6] dat.97.Vietnam:
Thank you so much.

I really love this rom but the Banking app also very importaint for me.

I changed betwen Stock and Evolution X a lot of time.
[Google Pixel 6] AnierinB:
Not all banking apps use the same checks, and it is a game of cat and mouse trying to fix some that are not working. Most work, some don't.

There will come a day where there will be no way around play api/sn, and users will have to make the choice of what they deem to be more important. Your banking app, which you can still use the browser for, or the entire custom scene.

If it was solely up to me, I wouldn't ship any play api/sn bypasses on Evo in general, so keep that in mind.

Hello, vendor_boot was not working with lastest update stock rom June 13, 2023 TQ3A.230605.010 Global
[Google Pixel 6] AnierinB:
Well, as the guide explicitly mentions, you need to be on stock April or May.
[Google Pixel 6] hrabe.X:
Hi, I was forced to reinstall. Google restore worked for me before. /SMS, call log, Wifi networks.../ It doesn't work for me with the latest version of Evolution X.

Pixel 6a evolution X 7.9.3

The battery icon in the quick settings is pink.

Is there any way to improve it?
[Google Pixel 6] louis-amand:
I think there is a typo for the dtbo.img links:

Shouldn't the URL be

https://sourceforge.net/projects/evolution-x/files/oriole/dtbo/dtbo.img/download

with "files" instead of "dtbo" before the device name? (and equivalently for raven and bluejay)
[Google Pixel 6] yaggayah:
I had this error a couple of versions ago... There is nothing in the settings to fix it, what I did to get around it was to use the dark theme and the themed icons. And restart the device
[Google Pixel 6] GROOVYJOSHCLARK:
Just a heads up everyone, I had issues using the OTA update for evolution_raven-ota-tq2b (06-08) update to evolution_raven-ota-tq3a (06-21).

Changelog does say a clean flash is recommended (which I didn't do with the OTA).

I had no net but had solid connections to both Wi-Fi/mobile, but the system couldnt use the network for some reason (offline across the board, apps, system, ETC.). I didn't bother debugging, and rebuilt my droid this morning using evolution_raven-ota-tq3a.230605.012-06210458-unsigned.zip (6/21). I wanted to rebuild my droid regardless because of a ton of dev testing I was doing, so it worked out well for me (I ALWAYS backup PRIOR to ANY update) so I lost nothing! This worked flawlessly, and solid, then I got the OTA notification for the next release evolution_raven-ota-tq3a.230605.012-06220148-unsigned.zip (6/22 - released 8 hours ago) and took the OTA (with MAGISK to inactive slot), rebooted after the OTA and all is well!

Just keep it in mind before taking the 6/21 version evolution_raven-ota-tq3a.230605.012-06210458-unsigned.zip, I am unsure if this will cause issues or not. The latest (6/22 - 8 hours ago version), works perfectly (with OTA from tq3a.230605.012-06210458 TO tq3a.230605.012-06220148), and works perfectly (with MAGISK installed to the inactive slot, so I also retained ROOT)!

-EDIT, had a few weird things happen (AKA couldnt authenticate purchases in Play Store until I cleared all data) but this shouldn't happen out of the gate so I rolled back to the evolution_raven-ota-tq2b.230505.005 build. Back in business, and I will update down the road.
[Google Pixel 6] TimeLord1102:
Seem to be having 2 very specific issues with the latest OTA, both on the lock screen. First one is changing the color or format of the clock straight up does nothing. Changing the font still works. The other is the blue settings for the album cover background also doesn't work. Unsure if this is because I updated over OTA or an issue with the update itself
[Google Pixel 6] louis-amand:
Anyone else has troubles with fingerprint authentification?

Even right after adding a finger, it is not recognized. Rebooting didn't seem to change anything. Adding more fingers neither.
[Google Pixel 6] GROOVYJOSHCLARK:
I have NEVER gotten a fingerprint to EVER work (even on official Google firmware, LOS, and here, EVO X). Its not just you, it happens to me on ALL OS's for my 6 pro! I even moisturized my fingertips (per Google), nope! Fails EVERY TIME, usually on the fingertips, but can be at any part of the process, then I have to reboot to try again. I just use face unlock nowadays and forget the fingerprint! The only hiccups I have is that my device flags in DUO Security (because it knows I have the fingerprint capability, but none set). This adds a blemish to my company profile as it appears that I am using an unsecured pixel (but it is). It doesn't really matter as I am the senior sys architect (who created the edge security) so its all good but its annoying.
[Google Pixel 6] GROOVYJOSHCLARK:
I ended up rolling back to evolution_raven-ota-tq2b.230505.005, I also had unusual behavior in a few areas so I rolled back, and done. I will update down the road.
[Google Pixel 6] calllke:
tell me how to roll back, do I need a full reset, or can I just flash the previous version
[Google Pixel 6] GROOVYJOSHCLARK:
It was a full reset after first redoing factory firmware to both slots to resize and fix /system then I did the normal ROM install.
[Google Pixel 6] w_tapper:
maybe your device is defective? you should contact support about it, its useful for when your face unlock doesnt work
[Google Pixel 6] TimeLord1102:
Another issue (unsure if rom related), after update Spotify completely breaks on reboot and need to be reinstalled
[Google Pixel 6] AnierinB:
Spotify works fine and continues to work across multiple reboots here.

I'd also appreciate if users posted logs when reporting issues they happen to encounter.

[Google Pixel 6] sronweb:
I tried too, even if I don't understand vietnamese, but it return the error due to phone root conditions. I guess no change unfortunately.
[Google Pixel 6] GROOVYJOSHCLARK:
I'm still working on it, reverse engineering takes time. I need to figure out what's flagging root, but this is fun for me so I'm seeing what I can do to help you.
[Google Pixel 6] GROOVYJOSHCLARK:
Yeah I agree, but I've never cared enough to bother with replacement. I never used fingerprints in any pixel. I use face unlock or macrdroid scripts to unlock when I enter this room, that room, or location. It's never really bothered me other than the fact, I'm an engineer, so there's nothing that shouldn't work or I'll fix it. I gave up with the fingerprint scanner because I just don't use it or care but at some point, I do plan to solve it or reach out to Google. I just don't want another phone, this one is perfect now, with the exception of fingerprint scanner. It could also be my fingertips themselves, I build a lot of engines (for fun) for my Harleys, so I'm always burning my fingertips, all the time. It's so bad that I can't really get a scan from a normal fingerprint scanners (in my data centers for work). That definitely doesn't help with my pixel so it's less of an issue for me.
[Google Pixel 6] dat.97.Vietnam:
Thank you so much. Hope that successful

After the latest update, the apps can't connect to the internet, even though the message notification is still coming. Occur with both Wifi and Mobile data networks - Pixel 6 pro

Did anyone get the same problem?
[Google Pixel 6] daolongnam:
You can blame VNPay for that. BTW, it *might* be fixed in the next update as Play Integrity bypass for non-root will be implemented.

[Google Pixel 6] Kayotick:
The latest update no longer allows battery customization. Anyone else not seeing this option?

It does seem others are having more serious issues. This is the only thing I have noticed so far. Everything else seems to be working fine.
[Google Pixel 6] GROOVYJOSHCLARK:
had same issue, rolled back
[Google Pixel 6] GROOVYJOSHCLARK:
Here is my rollback logs (every step taken). First I set slot A, then manually do the matching Google FACTORY FIRMWARE (flashall.bat). I immediately reboot after it wipes data (slot A) - last step of the update image process, so be ready and quick with volume down + power button. Reboot to BL (not to OS), and I will be on SLOT B (or I force SLOT B). Then I do the same factory firmware on slot B (fixes/resizes /system back to normal for both slots using this method of flashing to both manually). Then I flash the ROM recovery, factory reset, then install like normal (follow ROM steps).

The wipe /system /data is not critical, but I like to do it every time I factory firmware reset so it cleans up everything and resets the /system and /data for a new ROM install:

fastboot --set-active=a

fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-raven-slider-1.2-9883526.img

fastboot flash radio radio-raven-g5123b-116954-230511-b-10112789.img

fastboot -w update image-raven-tq3a.230605.010.zip

fastboot --set-active=b

fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-raven-slider-1.2-9883526.img

fastboot flash radio radio-raven-g5123b-116954-230511-b-10112789.img

fastboot -w update image-raven-tq3a.230605.010.zip

(FASTBOOTD) fastboot --set-active=a

fastboot erase system

fastboot erase userdata

(FASTBOOTD) fastboot --set-active=b

fastboot erase system

fastboot erase userdata

Reboot to recovery, factory reset, follow ROM steps.... THIS WILL WIPE YOUR DATA so BACKUP PRIOR!!!

LOL beat ya to it (I never intended to leave the output) just the commands but I had to edit before it was right. The output logs weren't needed, just the commands but I feared cutting/pasting out an important command so I uploaded it all, then trimmed it back ;)

Thanks for the quick commands though, I didn't know all of them!!
[Google Pixel 6] AnierinB:
This is caused by the smart 5g feature that has since been removed. Please disable it and restart the device.
[Google Pixel 6] counter8086:
Where is the smart 5G feature?

I did Factory Reset, and it solved.
[Google Pixel 6] GROOVYJOSHCLARK:
For others, its under Network & Internet, SIMs
[Google Pixel 6] GROOVYJOSHCLARK:
Check it out, using the latest release of this ROM, PLUS moisturizing my thumbs, PLUS using a different finger (used thumbs this time), and it FINALLY registered and WORKED (after 100s of times failing/crashing)!!

Until today, I was trying to solely use my index fingers (both hands), as thats usually how I unlock. None of my index fingers would register (and I even tried middle and ring fingers), only the thumbprint worked. I am happy, but its awkward to use (in my opinion) and not how I would normally use my fingerprint unlock (thumbprint), but its OK with me as I dont really use it (mainly use face unlock) BUT its FINALLY working so I am happy!!
[Google Pixel 6] w_tapper:
its still concerning that you had to do all that to register a fingerprint
[Google Pixel 6] GROOVYJOSHCLARK:
Oh I know and I'm sure it's some type of internal damage or broken scanner, but I don't care. As noted, I never use it, but now that it works, I have all of my biometrics set for my security profiles. That's all I cared about, flagging as not fully secured by my posturing edge compliance service (my only real concern), I will explain. It checks everything (like BL unlock with ROOT, or missing/not set fingerprints, or no lockscreen --> anything insecure), example would be anything not stock/official OS/firmware. Without a fingerprint added, I didn't show 100% safe/secured so I was constantly being flagged as using an insecure device on my corp network, this is bad for me as an example for my team..

I am the senior system architect so I'm the top of the chain (I report directly to the CTO, he reports to the owner, so I'm 3rd in line). This means I have many senior / junior engineers reporting directly to me and everything funnels through me (as the lead senior system architect / engineer). This means that I CANNOT be insecure or flag anything as insecure (AKA - no fingerprint biometrics enabled/created), and I lead by example so I cant say one thing, then do another (be insecure - but force my engineers to be secured)! This is especially true with security and compliance so it wasn't great the senior lead wasn't showing as secure (and constantly being notified that I was insecure). This in turn will lead to internal tickets (within my company's edge device software) - it creates internal security compliance tickets. Having constant tickets created for me that states I am insecure (as the head senior sys architect / engineer) wasn't a great example! Eventually it would become a compliance issue, and affect our IT certs for IT security, so it becomes a huge issue when this happens! This was becoming such an issue for me, that I almost had to move to another ROM with fingerprint working (or un-ROOT and lock BL to become secured) and use official Google firmware, but thankfully this wasn't needed!! When ALL ROMs / official Google firmware all failed, with the exact same issues/errors, I knew I was in trouble. I then discovered it wasn't an OS/ROM issue, but my device / fingerprints as the cause (I.E. broken fingerprint scanner). I was making excuses daily with my company for why I am unable to add biometric / fingerprint), but but anymore!
[Google Pixel 6] SuperPi911:
after the update today , the home controls from the lockscren no longer work, i cannot root my phone , when i siseload magisk , it gives me error 127, how do i fix it?
[Google Pixel 6] naed3r:
Love this ROM and all it's features, I just setup a parallel space but it seems like it only properly works in the evolutionX launcher. Would it be possible to extend support either through a shortcut or something else to third party launchers? For example I use the Niagra launcher ATM

Thanks!
[Google Pixel 6] andythegreat:
Keep on getting error 21 in recovery when trying to flash magisk?
[Google Pixel 6] fabricio87878787:
hi, u can tell how install magisk on inactive slot¿ thanks
[Google Pixel 6] aimsjahan:
For all devices with A/B boot slots-

Before downloading OTA, Magisk app > Uninstall > Restore Images.

Do not reboot or you will have Magisk gone!

Wait for the system update process to be completed, do NOT “Restart" just yet.

Magisk app > Install > Install to Inactive Slot.

Reboot.

Enjoy!
[Google Pixel 6] GROOVYJOSHCLARK:
Don't flash it with recovery, patch the boot.img then fastboot the new ROOT'd boot.img. Error 21 usually is failing signature check. Even if you get past the signature issues, you may still have magisk issues within the OS. Whenever I tried to install through recovery (not patching boot.img), I had weird issues with always trying to download/install missing magisk data, and would loop. Granted it's been a while since trying to use recovery as I switched to ONLY patching boot, and it works every time.

I'd forget that method and just use the patch method, it's tested, tried and true! Works EVERY TIME for me!!
[Google Pixel 6] naed3r:
I did the recovery method on this ROM a few times and it works perfectly so far

Maybe it was a buggy build you were flashing causing this issue
[Google Pixel 6] aimsjahan:
He was talking about flashing magisk.

ROM has absolutely zero issues getting installed via recovery.

Pls stay on topic.
[Google Pixel 6] GROOVYJOSHCLARK:
No builds were buggy for me, you misunderstood entirely what I was saying but no worries. Based on your status (new member), I get it, newbs often misunderstand steps until they are familiar with doing them over and over again. Its often hard to understand and know whats going on, simply from reading a forum and know/understand what means what without the firsthand experience doing X,Y,Z, so its all good!

ALWAYS sideload the ROM with ROM's recovery installed (no other method without TWRP or using fastboot for each partition). ONLY patch the boot.img with MAGISK, then fastboot the patched .img to the boot. As aimsjahan pointed out, I was only referring to the ROM sideload, but not MAGISK.

Do not sideload MAGISK in recovery, use fastboot and patch the boot.img to gain ROOT!
[Google Pixel 6] hide12:
i am using px 6 pro. after new flash, Everything is perfect but I am getting an error that my custom settings, messages and call history cannot be synced.
[Google Pixel 6] AnierinB:
As per the OP

"Google restore is not fully working at this time".
[Google Pixel 6] GROOVYJOSHCLARK:
I use SMS backup pro (SyncTech), and have since day 1 (very early android - ICS / Android 4). I've used it since it was Carbonite (before SyncTech bought them), but its gotten BETTER since acquired! SMS Backup Pro has saved my SMS/MMS/calls from 2010/11. I have gone through multiple pixels (pixel, 2XL, 3XL, 4XL, 6 pro) over multiple revisions of Android and thousands of rebuilds/reinstalls. I never lose a text or call with SMS pro and it nightly backs up everything so you never need to restore with Google.

Only hiccup is that you need the backup prior to swapping ROMs/devices but once you have it backing up nightly, you're set!

*** I am NOT affiliated with SyncTech Pty Ltd whatsoever ***

It just works and has saved my texts (TXT/MMS) MANY TIMES over the years!
[Google Pixel 6] naed3r:
So was I, I wasn't talking about flashing the ROM, I was talking about flashing magisk.

Hence my reply to that specific comment
[Google Pixel 6] naed3r:
Ok, first that was WAYY too passive aggressive and it really set me off. While yes, I do have a "new user" account, I don't consider myself a "newb", I've been rooting and modding since my first android ~3 years ago and have been jailbreaking since around iOS 5 (yes I know it's not the same thing but it's still device modifications), as well as having a decent background in computer science and programming.

And as I said in my other reply, I was in fact talking about magisk, I was simply stating that magisk has always worked when flashing through recovery on the phones I've done it on. I figured that it would've been implied but I guess it wasn't obvious, that's on me.
[Google Pixel 6] GROOVYJOSHCLARK:
LOL sorry, I meant newb forum user. I have no idea of your android experience. Sorry for the confusion, but let me know what you need help with. Also try to remember that I do tend to overly explain everything due to my day job as the senior system engineer/architect. I mentor hundreds of engineers at any given time. It spills over into everything I do so I do tend to come off in a different way than I intended so don't take offense. I wasn't necessarily calling you a newb to android but I was saying it to the forums based on your status but you shouldn't get upset over it. Mia Copa if I upset you, unintentionally! Not my intention, my only intention was to keep the train from derailing. It must be how I explain things, you are FAR FROM THE FIRST person to say I sounded condescending or passive aggressive, so I will try to be more careful outside of work!
[Google Pixel 6] bl3d2death:
I updated to latest version for pixel 6a and now the whole phone has no internet connection. System says WiFi + mobile connection are active, but no app is getting a connection. WTF is this?

Some apps seems to send notifications... (should be new ones), but when clicking on them, it always shows no connection.

Update worked fine without errors, also magisk is still there and root apps working.

I also tried several times to reboot. nothing helps to get a working internet connection.

Before the update everything was fine.

Trusting the settings and system everything should work... but since reboot from update rlly no connection for anything.

One thing changed with update as far as I noticed. The Mobile Connection before update had a small 4g signal at its side, now there is the huge 4g symbol next to connection status and instead of small 4g symbol there stands HD.

Mobile Calls are working fine.... just everything with internet connection does not. Doesn't matter if connected to mobile network or one of my home wifis.

There are also no more settings I could check. And as the phone says, the connection is active.

Even no messeges from whatsapp etc. are uploaded. The network monitor shows a few kb are sending most the time.

For now since one hour (since reboot from update) system says with connected mobile + wifi -> NO CONNECTION

Need the device full working today and a solution as fast as possible. :(

EDIT:

Tried also: reset whole internet connection: reset works well, system says everthing is connected. Android also doesnt shows up "there is no internet connection"

I really have no more idea what to do instead of formatting the device :(
