All running well for me after 1 day and lots of theming options are awesome because I like to do homescreens but this rom has more options than any rom I've used on any of my pixel or Samsung devices over the years so well done 👍🏼. I booted the stock Jan image and skipped setup and allowed ADB authorisation before going into evolution recovery and flash ROM zip seemed to work for me.
[Google Pixel 6] bbc89:
Awesome! This helped fix it. Best ROM ever 😄
[Google Pixel 6] lil_michelle:
To boost sound without any mod go to Accessibility - Sound amplifier with head phones in USB or Bluetooth
[Google Pixel 6] smorpaket:
At least use platform tools correctly, as per the "error" guide in the post.
[Google Pixel 6] kpirnie:
i tried flashing kiri, didnt work. got stuck in fastboot.

figured if i get sick of stock I'll flash januarys boot, root it, then try flashing again. no biggee
[Google Pixel 6] imna357:
What I did is fresh install of pixel 6 pro image using flash-all.bat on both slots, then flash EVO using his method, then use payload bin after extracting EVO rom, use the boot.img and patched it with magisk, then flash, use EXKM to flash kiri, that's it. So far no hiccups 👍🏾
[Google Pixel 6] Bonez1802:
Great rom, it has everything and above.. installation went smoothly, for me it worked with ucb c to c cable, pixel 6 og, everything works, and i finally get rid off the nav bar pill, thank developers, amen.. 😁
[Google Pixel 6] abalam:
Is the original kernel what comes with the rom the stock google kernel?
[Google Pixel 6] bbc89:
Lol. Can you elaborate on that? As I mentioned earlier I did the same thing I always do and it worked.
[Google Pixel 6] ToLive2010:
I'm a new Pixel used, please, help. Will fingerprint image and battery percent shift on the always-on display to prevent burn-in? Looks like they are stay on the same position all day long.
[Google Pixel 6] jamescable:
i dont understand this ****. fresh install with google images on both slot, followed instructions, rom boots. i used both evo boot and january boot to achive magisk, both work. tried installing kiri and radioactive using kernel flasher on both boot images, everytime i end up in bootloader loop. recovery ends up getting replaced with stock when i use evo boot. pixel 6 pro non carrier unlocked
[Google Pixel 6] Dopamin3:
Small "issue" on the bluejay build. After turning on the option found in The Evolver - Status Bar - Show Wi-Fi type icon it sometimes misreports. In this screenshot it is showing a 6 (indicating WiFi 6 / AX) but it actually should be showing a 5 (rather for WiFi 5 / AC). This screenshot shows the application Network Analyzer indicating that the WiFi is AC (aka WiFi 5) even though it's showing 6 in the status bar. Given this is a minor visual issue that doesn't really affect anything, would providing logs help? I understand not everyone can test between WiFi N / AC / AX aka 4 / 5 / 6. This access point it's hooked up to is older and doesn't even support WiFi 6.

Other than that been running smooth, and this is a super super minor issue. Just like to report what I have found.

Edit: and a few minutes later it is now showing as 5 in the status bar as it should be. Interesting....
[Google Pixel 6] sam00561:
I have found a little issue not very serious. (bluejay) when using G maps if i turn off the screen and use the maps navigation just to hear directions in the background with screen turned off if i then double tap the screen to turn it back on the screen will not turn on and need to use power button.
[Google Pixel 6] jlokos:
I had the same experience; I'm not sure how @imna357 gets it to work on his phone.
[Google Pixel 6] d2xtaimen02:
Honestly loving the rom. Huge props to the devs but I am having one issue. When using reverse charging it'll randomly turn off even tho neither the phone or the device has been touched. I don't use a case and neither do my airpods. Any ideas as to why? Is there a sensitivity setting im not seeing?
[Google Pixel 6] sronweb:
No problem here but I'm using latest version from today. The call log shows the names which are in my contacts.

The OP has just uploaded a fresh release, I may suggest that you try with this one: evolution_raven-ota-up1a.231105.003-12072247-OFFICIAL.zip (this is last)
[Google Pixel 6] sabujbarman:
In latest update unlimited gphotos spoofing not working
[Google Pixel 6] jackhu:
OP already mentioned a while ago in his previous reply that this specific feature will be removed. You need to get your phone rooted and then use this plugin: https://github.com/cuynu/gphotos-unlimited-zygisk

It works for me.
[Google Pixel 6] sabujbarman:
Thanks a lot also work for me
[Google Pixel 6] radaan:
I have a bug. Couldn't find anyone talking about it. Sometimes you open an app on the launcher and the phone instead of opening the app shows the wallpaper without icons. You need to press home or do the gesture and reopen the app. Anyone?

Everything is stock and fresh installed

Edit: been searching and the problem seems to be incompatibility of android 14 and third party launchers. Not a rom problem.
[Google Pixel 6] Hryasch:
Hi, just upgraded to latest version (evolution_oriole-ota-up1a.231105.003-12072135-OFFICIAL) from some old android 13 version of EvolutionX and detected that "force kill app" button has disappeared from launcher/recents. Anyone knows why they removed this useful option or i missed something? (latest magisk already installed by patching boot.img)
[Google Pixel 6] sinkoo1979:
using the latest built and still the same.
[Google Pixel 6] alsartawi:
Hi, i am on stock A14 December release, can i install this rom?
[Google Pixel 6] sronweb:
Yep. As reported on the OP on the first page
[Google Pixel 6] MaHarder:
I have a couple of bugs:

Volume bar is shifted far away from corner.

App switcher button behaves strange. Sometimes it works.

[not Evo bug] Can't root device. I get into boot loop. I patched boot from Evo and from stock but after

adb flash boot boot.img

I got bootloop

I had Evolution X on Android 13 installed and upgraded to Android 14 with help of sideload (from first post)
[Google Pixel 6] alsartawi:
network is not working (sim card) and i can't disable "Automatically select network", any solution?
[Google Pixel 6] aimsjahan:
I beg to differ, please do NOT misguide others. OP says-

"Coming from stock A14 November release with unlocked BL"
[Google Pixel 6] alsartawi:
do you think thats why i have problem with sim card?
[Google Pixel 6] aimsjahan:
If it's the e-sim then most probably, yes. But you can try *#*#4636#*#* on the dial pad & then enabling relevant options.
[Google Pixel 6] d2xtaimen02:
Just my two cents. I have returned to latest decemeber image and from that flashed to the latest evo x rom. No issues with e sim whatsoever. I originally did on evox 13 but not anymore!
[Google Pixel 6] sronweb:
No misguide. The Nov or Dec A14 does not change. I have installed from Dec A14 and I have basically no problem.
[Google Pixel 6] alsartawi:
i will try, thank you
[Google Pixel 6] TimeLord1102:
I have the same issue as 1, volume is in the center of the screen. I flashed Evo from scratch from A14

Also have a second issue with AOD not persisting after restarting SystemUI

Edit: AOD was an issue with aodNotify, not Evo
[Google Pixel 6] MaHarder:
i have noticed that fingerprint sensor is under the icon / picture of fingerprint
[Google Pixel 6] aimsjahan:
Dude, it doesn't matter if NOV & DEC firmware are the same or not. The issue was you misquoted OP!
[Google Pixel 6] sronweb:
I disagree. But it's fine for me.

This custom ROM was firstly released in Nov, and most likely this is the reason it's not mentioning the Dec update. But this is not relevant in the flashing procedure.
[Google Pixel 6] AnierinB:
True.

I don't ship firmware currently, which is the reason for stating to be on Stock November release, as that's what the ROMs proprietary files are extracted from.

False.

Have you ran a checksum difference between the firmware images from both stock payload dumps? I haven't, but I wouldn't assume that they're the same just because things are "fine" without doing so.

Anyways.

Upcoming QPR1 releases will have firmware included again as well as subsequent ASB's/QPR's. Follow what the guide says people. I update my OP's, so it will always reflect the current instructions for the latest build as soon as they're up.
[Google Pixel 6] sronweb:
As mentioned I have started from Dec stock and everything is fine, I have just found known minor issue reported by others for the fingerprint position and the lock screen redundancy of weather widget, so for my experience starting from Dec does not hurt. This is at least my experience so this is why I have suggested to others.

Of course if I don't follow the instructions I will not blame anyone in case of problems.
[Google Pixel 6] jackhu:
Just wondering if anyone whose Pixel has installed the latest version of this ROM has any issue with their Bluetooth headphone/earphone(s)?

Neither my Sony WH-1000XM4 headphone nor my Apple Air Pod Pro(1st gen) got any sound unless I turn up the volume to absolute maximum.

Tried restarting the phone, reset Bluetooth connection, nothing worked for me so far.

Both bluetooth headphone/earphone work perfectly fine when connected with my iPhone or Android tablet, so I had to think this issue might have something to do with this ROM itself other than anything else...
[Google Pixel 6] wilberfan:
I did a successful OTA update and re-root last night. Tonight I noticed there was another update available? The OTA asked for a reboot at around 13%, but I neglected to run magisk before rebooting.

Tried patching the boot.img (from here) -- using the same technique as the night before, but after displaying a google logo for 60 seconds, it reboots into a non-rooted state. Is the boot image at that link the correct, most-up-to-date one?

A little new at this, sorry if this is noob-level.
[Google Pixel 6] AnierinB:
The FP used in the built in play integrity fix has once again been blocked.

Here is an updated Pif.apk. Simply install, reboot and clear data for Play store. Afterwards, CTS/Play integrity API will pass again (until this one is blocked).
[Google Pixel 6] MaHarder:
I have the same issue. If I flash the boot file I get into bootloop...
[Google Pixel 6] AnierinB:
Those images are posted explicitly for the initial installation; They are not updated frequently. Extract the boot.img from the latest ROM.zip using payload-dumper-go as pointed out in OP #3.
[Google Pixel 6] MaHarder:
I did so.
[Google Pixel 6] d2xtaimen02:
I just updated. Noticed some clipping but it went back to normal afterward. Possibly a factory reset for you? I honestly dont have much of any idea lol. Do you use any audio mods?
[Google Pixel 6] sinkoo1979:
I updated the rom through OTA and I notice some of the features were missing. Like: double tap to sleep and can't make the app arrange bigger on the home screen (max is 5x5) before this update I can change to 5x7. Anybody have this issue? any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance
[Google Pixel 6] d2xtaimen02:
Because they changed the launcher.
[Google Pixel 6] sam.balia1012:
You could get another launcher and resize however u like
[Google Pixel 6] alsartawi:
Hey AnierinB, thank you for the fantastic Rom, i want to report 2 bugs:

- Wallpaper & style crashing when using Bold text for Arabic language, crash logs: https://paste.evolution-x.org/0f6xc1

- The Fingerprint sensor is under the icon of any authentication of the Apps when using 3 - 2 button navigation:
[Google Pixel 6] sam.balia1012:
unfortunately after unstalling it and clearing PS data, now cannot update any app.
[Google Pixel 6] MaHarder:
After update to newest version I got bootloop. Computer couldn't recognize my phone. I had to flash to stock A14... a little bit sad
[Google Pixel 6] Insanely_techy:
Double tap at the back gesture is broken in the latest build (clean flash). Cinematic wallpaper is missing too.fingerprint icon is misplaced, but ig that's a known bugs.Other than that, it's all flawless.
[Google Pixel 6] vuongnhatvy:
Hello! I just updated from version UP1A.231105.003 - 12072106 to version UQ1A.231205.015 - 12132255 for Pixel 6A! And I lost the Home settings tab to customize the iconpack, ...! Please fix! Thank you very much!
[Google Pixel 6] AnierinB:
Did you even read the changelog? We switched back to Pixel Launcher.
[Google Pixel 6] Legitsu:
doesn't make pixel launcher anyless FUGLY or Useless >_>
[Google Pixel 6] AnierinB:
This is our ROM, and we will go in the direction we see fit. You guys can either choose to use it, or use something else.

Pixel launcher stays, end of story.
[Google Pixel 6] MaHarder:
does anyone have the issue that you can't receive any call? last two days nobody can reach me. i tried to dial myself from other phone - it went through but my phone didn't received that call

My Bad, before update i had call forward to my work number and this was saved until now 🤦🏻‍♂️
[Google Pixel 6] Esin8785:
This is a nice rom good job, the one issue i do have probs with is the fingerprint scanner, it will indeed scan and authenticate my finger but there are apps that require it for me to log in and it's position where it wants me to place my finger is slightly higher than the actual scanner and it will not work correctly, if I place my finger a bit down from where the screen says to press my finger it will work but other than that it's awesome been going since yesterday and my battery overnight stayed above 96 percent so I'm all happy. This only does this on applications that require biometric, not the start up one to unlock the phone that one seems to be fine as in position and working
[Google Pixel 6] DSDX:
Made an account to give some feedback.

First I'd like to say thank you for all of your incredible work, I've been using Evo since around launch and it's one of the best custom ROMs I've used over the years.

Personally I really like the pixel launcher, my only real complaint is that it's fairly limited with customizability.

Previously I'd been getting around this by using Pixel Launcher Extended:

https://github.com/saitamasahil/Pixel-Launcher-Extended a mod to add additional features to the Pixel Launcher, but that's now not currently compatible with Evo due to Android 14.

I realize this isn't at all on Evo Team, I was just curious whether Extended integration might be a possibility or something.

Thanks.
[Google Pixel 6] Software Guru:
Cannot get my latest Xiaomi Mi 11's bootloader unlocked so picked up a cheap 6 Pro this morning so that I can carry on using this awesome ROM

Did you at any point even bother to go back and read??? 🤦🏽
[Google Pixel 6] sam00561:
Hi does google play integrity Gpay banking etc work without root an the latest build please for P6P.
[Google Pixel 6] sam.balia1012:
That feature has been removed entirely on all EVO builds.
[Google Pixel 6] sam.balia1012:
Google keeps fixing "play integrity" with most workarounds. Fix might be temporary but Google is too persistent. You might consider to live with it.
[Google Pixel 6] lame.exe:
I have the same question, does the KMI of rom still match with KernelSU? Evolution X for other devices name KernelSU support explicitly as a rom feature, this one doesn't.
[Google Pixel 6] dpn025:
why?? :"(

we update custom ROM because that feature.
[Google Pixel 6] sronweb:
You may understand why. It's imply some legal risk, allowing users to get FOC something that Google provide with a subscription.

I don't know if it's working but there should be still a Magisk module for rooted phone to get the same result.
[Google Pixel 6] kubo6472:
Wait, it works for me at the moment... Should I not update? It was removed and brought back every second update. If it was removed entirely, why keep the switch (toggle) in the settings?
[Google Pixel 6] kubo6472:
It's based on https://github.com/KieronQuinn/PixelLauncherMods (it's written in the readme), and PLM works good enough for me even on Evo A14.
[Google Pixel 6] sronweb:
You are right. I see that the option is still there and I have last update from EvoX for raven. But I recall that somebody also mentioned that it should be removed. Anyway I don't know if it's working because its disabled for me.
[Google Pixel 6] kubo6472:
check the latest uploaded photo, if it says: "this item doesn't take up any storage in your account", you're good
[Google Pixel 6] sronweb:
No, I disabled because I have Google One subscription. If I enable it it will conflict with some GCam features.
[Google Pixel 6] Shuhan44:
Settings> Battery> Battery Saver> Extreme Battery Saver> gear icon = it Crashes every time.

[Google Pixel 6] sronweb:
JFYI.

I tried the same menu' but no crash for me in raven.
[Google Pixel 6] sam.balia1012:
No crash here either !
[Google Pixel 6] Shuhan44:
#edit: My bad: Forgot to mention that it happens in P6a bluejay.

(As the developer closed the thread for bluejay and directed everyone here, I forgot that P6 and P6pro users are also here.)
[Google Pixel 6] Stonkers:
The hotspot will only let me use 2.4 ghz. 5 ghz is greyed out. I know I have it because it didn't do this before the update and pdanet lets me use 5ghz. Don't care too much just figured I'd report it. Excellent work!
[Google Pixel 6] Lada333:
Hello! I'm on stock, looking forward to flashing EvoX.

How stable is the A14 build? Should I flash the latest A13 build, or is A14 ready to be on a daily driver?
[Google Pixel 6] sronweb:
In my experience it's already excellent and it can be used as daily driver. If you read the pages back just some difference on launcher coming with the rom, which is anyway just a matter of personal preference (i use anyway another custom launcher....).
[Google Pixel 6] maharotzkie:
still a good rom. but many customization features are gone. like changing udfps icon and animation. some options at launcher are gone too.
[Google Pixel 6] Software Guru:
Nova Launcher is on sale for 10p so if you don't like the included Pixel Launcher then just get that
[Google Pixel 6] Lada333:
Is there perhaps a full list of customization options in the a14 vs the a13 builds?
[Google Pixel 6] Esin8785:
it's a rom in developments, Im sure they are working on getting everything ported eventually
[Google Pixel 6] Lada333:
Fair enough. Flashing each new update shouldn't require a clean flash anymore, correct?

Or is flashing latest stock ROM still the norm when a new firmware (?) gets released alongside it?
[Google Pixel 6] bl3d2death:
Have flashed this rom, everything fine, also Google Photos works well with the fix.

But I cant hide root for installing Netflix.

Already hided Google Play and Services.

What did I wrong?
[Google Pixel 6] Lada333:
I think you also need to install Play Integrity Fix
[Google Pixel 6] bl3d2death:
The fix from second Post didnt worked for me, but the Universal integrity fix
[Google Pixel 6] Lada333:
USNF might still work for that, but you won't be able to use your phone for contactless payments. If that's not something you want to do anyway, you can stick with USNF.
[Google Pixel 6] bl3d2death:
What else fix I should use instead?
[Google Pixel 6] Lada333:
This is the new hot thing, however it's super high maintenance as of now. You either have to be on the lookout for OP to release a new version of the module when Google bans the fingerprint included, or you have to find one yourself that you can use.

Again, if you don't rely on your phone to make contactless payments, I wouldn't bother.
[Google Pixel 6] shakeynath:
Ok So i currently have the Android 14 Stock Android installed. The bootloader is now unlocked and ive tried flashing the boot.img through adb/fastboot but its coming up this error and i cannot find anyway around it.

FAILED (remote: partition (boot) not found)

Anyone could help me with thisi would be massivley grateful :D
[Google Pixel 6] kubo6472:
I absolutely don't understand, just wanna let you know that I also subscribe to 200GB Google One on one account, and use Google Workspace on the other, doesn't matter, no conflicts, it just backups to alleluia.
[Google Pixel 6] Lada333:
Adb Failed (remote: Partition (boot) Not Found)

For those who think it's easier to annoy you than to Google 'Adb failed (remote: partition (boot) not found)' themselves.

[Google Pixel 6] sronweb:
Thank you and I understood. No need here as I have the 2Tb plan but it can be useful for other users.
[Google Pixel 6] Esin8785:
Ticking the OEM unlock is only the first part of unlocking, you have to then unlock the bootloader via ADB
[Google Pixel 6] lame.exe:
Didn't get any response to this, so here is an update from my side. Unfortunately I couldn't get it working with the latest a13 september release and the appropriate Anykernel3 release for KernelSU.

I followed the intructions to patch the boot.img manualy with MagiskBoot, since Pixel phones need lz4_legacy compression, which is not provided by KernelsSU, for whatever reason...

Long story short, I tried various versions of Anykernel3, but non of them could boot the system after executing fastboot boot boot.img for testing it.

I dont know if there are interferences with the evolution x kernel or if I did something wrong. I would appreciate it if there is anyone out there who got it working or could help in another way.
[Google Pixel 6] Stonkers:
Can anyone tell me how to update and keep data and root? Last update the OTA flashed fine and then when I tried to reroot it bootlooped. I had to format data and start from scratch. Not looking forward to that again. I miss twrp. I remember when this a/b partition crap first started. We were supposed to be able to dual boot easier and it was gonna be great.. It's such a pain in the ass now that root and custom roms almost aren't worth it. Almost.. sorry for the rant
[Google Pixel 6] sronweb:
I updated regularly OTA and I keep the root.

When the update is complete, in the background, don't reboot but go in Magisk , home and select install of Magisk (not app) and select install after OTA update), then reboot.
[Google Pixel 6] Lada333:
Nobody ever reads OP...

And if that's the case here as well, no need to bash on custom ROMs (which you get for free) because you cba to read the instructions that come with them.
[Google Pixel 6] Stonkers:
You should read what I said. I didn't bash custom roms. I said it ALMOST isn't worth it. This is an excellent rom. I wouldn't have installed it otherwise. Calm down
[Google Pixel 6] Stonkers:
Yeah I did that and it still looped. Thank you . I'll just wait a while till I get bored again and feel like dealing with it. Right now it's running great.
[Google Pixel 6] Stonkers:
Besides bashing google I could also bash some of the people on this site now as well but since you have comprehension problems you'll probably think I'm bashing XDA itself and start simping for them. Have you ever actually helped anyone on here or are you always a complete douchebag that assumes someone didn't "read the OP"? I can't wait till you run into issueor make a mistake. You're not above it.
