Where is download folder (path) for ota downloads ? Ty for update - great job !!!
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] onderjas:
I wanted to update to the new version but booting to recovery already made me go into a bootloop. Which is strange because everything worked fine before. I guess I did something wrong, maybe decrypting after flashing the rom...

It feels like a hard brick. I can go to fastboot but there's nothing I can do in the command line that gives a response.

I like to use NovaLauncher, but still see the bottom part from the pixel launcher. Does anyone know how to disable it?

I can force shutdown, but it starts automatically again.

Thanks a lot!

I'll re-enable it.

Thank you for the update, it works flawlessly !

I never use OTA, I prefer to download the update manually, copy it on the internal storage, boot into recovery and voilà ! Using Orange FOX, no issue.

Hi! I've waited a little since installing last update, and there seems to be less crashes.

Has anyone been blocked from using Snapchat on their device running Evox? I'm trying to figure out what's the problem as it's device specific

[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] lymbra:
the problem then is that Fluid NG doesnt work anymore. Its an app to configure gestures and is much more powerful then the build in gesture mode.

therefore i need to have the navigation bar selected but hidden...

Any ideas?

But how did you get rid of the dock bar? its there no matter if i have the 3 button navigation or gesture activated.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] Clover_Y5:
I clean installed this version, but it has problems with the audio.

On Wireless headphones, the music seems to go lower than what the volume control shows.

And from time to time, it tries to get higher but returns to a lower volume.

I used a WF-1000XM4 and Poweramp on the HiRes Output at 96kHz 32Bits on LDAC Codec.

"Disable Absolute Volume" option enabled

"Disable Bluetooth A2DP Hardware Offload" option enabled.

[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] bialyikar:
Unfortunately, the phone sometimes hangs and only a restart helps. Once I had a situation where my screen went dark, but the phone was turned on. Pressing the Power button didn't help, and I had to restart the phone.

Several times, after restarting the phone, my wallpaper was reset to the default one.

After starting the camera, it often does not respond, it shows a message that it will restart in a few seconds. Unfortunately, this does not help, and you need to completely kill the application and then run it.

I'm currently updating to the latest version, we'll see how it works.

System version: EvolutionX 8.2
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] nokiagye:
I'm on latest version and unfortunately some times with clean flash the last build do that things, I'm sure jo on next update he will look at it
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] Clover_Y5:
Went from the Audio Issues to Screenshot and Screen record issues.

Screenshots save all in black, the same with screen record.

Also, after watching a video from Facebook, frames of the video hang and appear randomly in the lock screen and home screen.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] Rezzo94:
I've got lot of problems with this rom. Many UI restarts without any reason, non stop problem with Adguard https://paste.evolution-x.org/4aMQ6G - newest log.

Don't recommend this rom for anyone, maybe if you like to think about format in less than few days.

I didn't root Raphael, installed orange recovery, installed rom with instruction (I've read about change to f2s) and I don't like this rom.

Funny thing - I've got the same rom on my redmi note 8t and there it looks like much better. No problems with adguard and any other apps.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] Imperator_Dei:
Hi, how do you find the relevant log for the problem you have? I'd like to help but I don't think that sending thousands of lines of logs will help anybody
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] 28daniel28:
After roughly a week of usage, plus the most recent update from Wednesday, I can unfortunately vouch for this for the moment.

Even after following the storage fix, the ROM isn't too stable and needs a reboot once to twice a day for me. Issues encountered so far are:

MANUAL REBOOT: Crashed/Unresponsive lockscreeen. Sometimes, the lockscreen is just black and shows no content but the status bar. Unable to unlock either, unless you use the workaround which is going to the "ambient" lockscreen, which still shows content - I have set the ambient screen to show after double-tapping the screen.

MANUAL REBOOT: Crashed/Unresponsive system, getting the message "System isn't responding - Close app / Wait" (or similar). From what I've noticed in my experience this seems to be related to using the quick-settings tiles, e.g. press-holding "WiFi" and trying to select another WiFi network to connect to sometimes causes this issue.

MANUAL REBOOT: Sometimes, the issue described in the first point occurs even on the unlocked phone, meaning nothing is possible and/or responsive anymore.

MANUAL REBOOT: Unable to use the swipe gestures to go back or to close an app. Usually locking the phone results in behavior mentioned in #1 & #3 then.

APP CRASH: Rather rarely, but not never, some apps just randomly decide to crash to the home screen. Doesn't seem to matter which app is used, saw this using WhatsApp, Instagram, YouTube and Amazon Shopping.

MULTITASKING BUG: I'm using the Nova Launcher & have it set as default launcher. Still, quite a few times the Nova Launcher itself is shown in the multitasking manager as an app to close and I've also seen the "System" app from the lockscreen popups being shown as running multitasking app.

OS CRASH: It rarely happens that the whole OS crashes and shows you either the EvoX logo or in rare occasions even the vendor logo to reboot. I haven't really found a pattern here, as it even happened once while just being in WhatsApp and typing a message.

Unfortunately I have collected no logs so far, but I have just installed the LogFox app so I'm trying to do that in the future.

Needless to say, but just wanted to mention that I'm not using the phone in any way differently than I was using it with EvoX on A13, but never had any of these issues on A13. But the A14 version is only out for two months, so it's kinda unfair to compare it to that.

Hope this information helps in any way.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] 28daniel28:
Just shortly after installing LogFox, I was able to record this issue - see the video for yourself, not sure how I may explain this issue. I'm not sure if the logs were covered by the recording or not, I at least hope so.

Recovered by holding the power button > Advanced > SystemUI.

This is very well sumed up, I got crash n°3 when reading this post, I just went to the notification shade and boom, unresponsive, here's the logcat for the time period in which this occurred.

I'm sorry for joeyhuab that these builds do not meet our criteria, it must be difficult to maintain A14 on such an old device, but it appears that these crashes are getting overwhelming for everyone

Hello

Can someone please tell me if this ROM have, or had, "app lock" feature? Because it is listed in OP but I had flashed Dec version last month, and now OTA updated to latest feb version and i cant find it anywhere...even search in setting doesnt find it.

So no clue if im blind and it is just hidden somewhere or that feature got removed at some point and OP is just not updated with this info.

If app lock isnt here, i would be grateful for suggestion which rom has it (I'm stuck on old MIUI because i want to use app lock feature)

Thanks dev for effort for our device.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] Imperator_Dei:
I don't find it either, my guess is that this was a feature that was in the EvoX launcher, which has been reverted to pixel launcher since.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] anthidisd:
with the last update i have big probleme with battery dreining. the previus was pefect.

I change Kernel and every is Ok now .Thanks for the help
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] dafk:
I've been trying it for a little while and I have mixed thoughts. In my k20 pro, the last EvoX 7 with A13 seemed way more stable and less prone to crashes or random f*ckeries than this one. On the other hand, on this version i've observed that the frequency limit for the GPU is a chunk higher than on EvoX 7, from 625mhz if I recall correctly, to 770mhz, and I really appreciate it, seeing how this GPU can easily go over 800mhz no trouble whatsoever; it really helps with some games and fluidity in general.

Now for random f*ckeries; yesterday I was amused at my Clock app not wanting to work anymore (got away with easily downgrading through Play Store to make it work), then there's this new "One Punch Man: World" game which, tbh, don't really feel like playing on phone, but it worked ok on the last version with A13 and can't seem to work now, crashing before even opening. Tried different apk's to no result. No reboots yet, but had a couple of crashes that, again, never recall seeing on the last Evolution A13.

Anyway, overall i'd say it is really usable, even with the not-so-usual random bugs, and I'll stay with it for now, seeing how I must reset all again if downgrading to EvoX 7, which I don't know if is going to be easy or problematic.

Thanks Joeyhuab and all EvoX devs for your work, hope to keep seeing this device getting this kind treatment even when I do no longer use it anymore. You guys deserve a lot of support for keeping this and other devices up to date and delivering.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] Imperator_Dei:
Be sure to provide logs if you can, it helps the dev and makes you comment more constructive, even if I agree completely with what you say
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] 28daniel28:
Hey @joeyhuab

I've got a package of a few SystemUI crash logs fresh out of the oven! :D

Hopefully they help you.

There are quite a few with just "DeadSystemException: The system died; earlier logs will point to the root cause", but there are a few which actually have some information attached to them.

I've uploaded those to this message.

There are TONS of other logs from 3rs party apps randomly crashing as well, but I doubt they are of much help. If you think otherwise let me know, then I'll provide a package of them all so you can scrape through them if that helps you.

Thanks for your time and support joey!

You have problems? Flash that kernel

Evo...
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] sob0s:
For me was the same before, so I did a clean flash.

It drastically improves, but some crashes still remain. But I went from 15-20 crashes\reboot to 2-3 per day.

I think that with the next build this kind of issues will be solved. So you can wait a lil bit.

Someone in the telegram group suggest to change kernel (like the bool-x in the post above). You can try it out before clean flash, maybe it helps a bit.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] FlorenceRizer:
If you set the lock screen to none, the screen will automatically light up 5 seconds after the screen auto timeout automatically turns off the screen, how can I fix this?

There is a bug like this in A13 already
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] Imperator_Dei:
I've installed BoolX v1.5 (the file provided with this link), I'll keep you updated on the stability

Edit: almost 24h have passed and not a single system / app crash has occurred, hoping the streak continues 🤞

Edit2: 48h after, still no crash at all
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] dafk:
I don't think the crashes are THAT abundant; I have to admit it is working very well overall, but also I'll admit that it seems like A13 was more... robust? IDK, but all in all, everything works except for that OPM: World game, and I have not had any more crashes that I remember now. Maybe I don't use my phone too much, but I am using it as a daily phone now because my (newer) phone has the screen completely broken and is unusable (sadly :( ) and it really is doing what it's supposed to. It survived (and ended with more than 50% battery) a whole morning of GPS/music/whatsapp intense usage, no reboots, no crashes, no problems.

Just posting this to try and say that the rom is overall great, but maybe we got used to the excellence that EvoX 7 was and this just isn't it (yet).

thank you su much u help me
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] ivanfix69:
I also installed the bool-x kernel 2 days ago and have had no more problems. The rom now is almost perfect.

The only thing I can't do is select most of the ringtones and notifications. But this is a problem that occurs when I do a dirty installation of the rom and has nothing to do with the kernel.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] Imperator_Dei:
Same, this rom would be perfect if long press to toggle lamptorch worked as intended and notifications showed properly in landscape mode.

edit: my fault for the landscape mode notifications not working properly, I had set 2 columns instead of 4, seems like it's back in place now.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] 28daniel28:
Same here, so can completely vouch for this. As stated before, I installed LogFox a few days ago and literally got hundrets of error logs from various apps in the background crashing, plus system crashes 2-3 times a day.

Little more than 48 hours ago I installed BoolX and I didn't have any crashes whatsoever since then; neither the system, nor any app at all.

My advice: Install BoolX. And probably the best if Joey would add it to the next update, this will greatly improve the satisfaction of users. So far it's back to A13 stability. :)
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] Mr-Valdez:
So just flash the boolx zip file in the recovery?
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] anthidisd:
i have many crashes. how to install boolX ?

How can i find for sending logs for the crashes?
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] 28daniel28:
Exactly, just download the file, reboot to recovery (e.g. by holding power on Evo X, then selecting Advanced > Recovery) and then flash the file in OrangeFox.

No need to purge/clear/delete/format anything, just install and reboot.

It makes a huge difference. :)

See above, definitely give it a try. Wish I'd seen this earlier, it's really a night and day difference. Not a single crash after installing BoolX for 3 days straight, before tens to hundrets a day.

If you want to provide logs search for logcat on Google or try LogFox, but in my experience you won't need that after BoolX - literally have nothing to report after the installation.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] 28daniel28:
For the torch I have a hint for you: You can set the torch to turn off & on via long press of the sleep button when the screen is off. Works like a charm.

And camera launches when double-tapping the same button. :)
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] Hellknight00:
Thanks for recommending Boolx kernel, I was already a little frustrated with the random crashes

My phone became a black screen and could not return to the main menu after using android auto. the only option is forced restart.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] Imperator_Dei:
I know, the problem is that, before, the screen was considered off even when AOD was still active, which is no longer the case now, so now on a normal day I want to use my lamptorch while my phone is locked, and when I long press power button, the only thing it does is wake the phone up and display the power menu (when AOD is disabled it works like a charm)
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] Bibstation:
I can confirm that stability has been vastly improved after flashing Bool-X Kernel on my device. I was having more than 15 crashes every day and now I couldn't find any. I've just flashed this new kernel via OrangeFox, no ROM clean flash, no wipe. Just flashed the kernel and it's all good now.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] nokiagye:
Hey joey y missing a long time are y ok?
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] knigflight:
Do you lose passing SafetyNet/Play Integrity by flashing the other kernel?
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] 28daniel28:
Try the BoolX kernel linked a few messages before. It does wonders.

Ah gotcha, I don't use AOD to safe battery, and neither the "raise to wake" feature, but I see that being a problem then. But probably not a too deep issue for Joey to fix once he finds time for that.

Check the Telegram channel; there was some major drama on there the last few days including some doxxing, so some prick exposing confidential data and photos of Joey and his family. Not cool - even if data is technically publicly available, doxxing and threatening people with such research is just inhumane - and completely unfounded in this instance.

From what I've read Joey was really upset by this and thus probably didn't have any time nor encouragement to check by, which I really get - hope grass grows over this soon. There are always pricks like that, but to doxx someone who does essentially free labor is extra low.

Joey stated that EvoX will continue despite this, which is great news & highly appreciated. Don't let maniacs like him ruin your day, there are tons of people really appreciating your work :)

Still passes with BoolX kernel, just checked - no worries. :) My banking and everything also still works and didn't notice anything.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] Kromasm:
Hi !

Will KSU root still work with the BoolX kernel ?

Sorry to hear this story about Joey, I hope everything is fine now.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] ivanfix69:
Yes, the Bool-x kernel supports ksu
