Dunno if its maybe cause the nearby share feature that happens cause of that, I send here the logcats, hope it helps, thanks.

PD: It seems that if I turn off nearby share feature it stops connecting and disconnecting.

Having trouble installing this ROM, twrp gives error 7, KInstallDeviceOpenError. Is everyone just using the standard twrp? Neither that nore the one found in this forum works. I am able to flash other roms without issue. I've already tried to wipe and format.

In my opinion dont use twrp.
I don't think it supports the dynamic partitions for this device.
I was a long time twrp user but now I only use it if official guide doesn't work.
use this:

Install PixelExperience on jasmine_sprout - PixelExperience Wiki

Install PixelExperience on jasmine_sprout - PixelExperience Wiki

wiki.pixelexperience.org

even though it is for pixelexperience it works.

@Immanuel Raj thanks you for work. Maybe an good idea is to abandon 13 and start android 14

is this ROM still gonna be supported?
I see that the developer has released updates for pixelplus but not for this ROM.
I like this ROM a lot and don't need google bloatware from pixelplus.
I also noticed that the developers is a founding member of pixelplus ROM so maybe this ROM is not that important to him?

some hope for future of this great ROM would be great.

Hi. Nothing like that. Its just that i am working on a single code base for fixing bugs in device tree and then asking for issues then populate the fixes to all other roms. So i am working on one

can I make some suggestions?
please remove the gallery app from simple apps.
I cant update it.
also one of the great feature of the ROM is the "Annoying notifictaions" option, which silences notifications when screen in unlocked.
please keep that.

I really like this app and even though you also release pixelexperience and it has more updates, this ROM is way more clean and I hate bloatware of google pixel.
for any deivce I mean not just this phone.

btw, is the reason for PEplus ROM faster updates, the availability of google fast ROM release for pixel devices? if so, is there a ROM that tracks that but removes most pixel bloat?I ask that about any device custom ROM, not this phone specifically.

btw I cant find the "disable 2G" option in setting.
does this ROM supports this?

Android 12 adds an option to disable 2G modem on phones that ship with it

2G is an ancient tech that has a wide attack surface, so Google has added an option to disable 2G modems with Android 12. Read on for more!

@Immanuel Raj

if you any way have access to pixelexperience and arrowos web team can you suggest to them that maybe they should provide bittorrent files for the ROMs?
both pixelexperience and arrowOS download are unstable for me and even with a stable web connection, downloading a 1.8GB ROM is hard for me in one go on my connection.

bittorrent would solve this and checksum checking and also help with hosting cost for you too.

update:
just as I posted this and as I was have way downloading 1.8GB image I got an error and refreshing the page gave this:

Web server is down Error code 521​

Visit cloudflare.com for more information.

please for love of God add torrent support (maybe with webseed ability) to the downloads section of those two sites.
