Some1 already using it? How does it feel comparing to 12.1?
Also can I dirty flash it from latest 12.1?

FMRadio

Wait, but XZ1 doesn't support native FM radio, or I'm wrong?

You can, but i suggest a clean flash.

Just a copy paste from generic pe topics. Don't take it too much for real.

I am already using it and I can say it is a pretty good ROM for a beta. there are minor bugs but its understandable since this is an early build, but i can say this rom is already good for daily use and its much smoother feel than 12.1. so Kudos to Tux111

 

[leminh_81]

Flashed it, but i still can't use SIM since they removed carriers support on Android 12 July update. Other functions work well

What are you talking about? no one removed anything. If it doesnt work, clean flash it.

 

[dieccast39]

Great Rom thanks for android 13.
By far this is the fastest and smoothest Rom I have used so far in Xz1 keep it up

Remember to say thank you to derf elot and the other devs of the device, i'm just an humble rom builder.

 

[Tux111]

ROM updated

 

[Lexх]

Any news on EvoX release?

 

[molorred]

TWRP again doesn't support encryption because of new Android 13?

 

[Lexх]

TWRP again doesn't support encryption because of new Android 13?

No, I'm in the middle of going to 13. Only flashed TWRP 3.7.0 9-0 and all internal files of 12 still encrypted with no way to enter pin-code

 

[Tux111]

Any news on EvoX release?

Soon.

TWRP again doesn't support encryption because of new Android 13?

New TWRP should now. If not, it will in future releases, but twrp right now should be able to decrypt.

 

[Azimutz]

Try the one on LOS 20 thread, 3.6.2_12

 

[Lexх]

Soon.

New TWRP should now. If not, it will in future releases, but twrp right now should be able to decrypt.

Nah. Checked right now with 13 installed - still nothing. It just doesn't ask for a pin to decrypt like it used to on older ROMs

my xz1 device runs perfectly, before that i rooted my device on a pixel rom[10] and unrooted but after installing this rom i had to stop using it because it makes banking apps know my device has been rooted in the past, especially roms like lineageo 20 don't reveal being rooted in the past but the experience is terrible, how to fix this, i really want to experience try this rom

Hello. Мy device is G8342.
After installing these firmware’s (android 13 and 12), 4g and the mobile network constantly disappear. Maybe this is a problem with the modem config. Changing the modem config does not help and I don't know which one works better in Ukraine. How to find out which config works on stock firmware and transfer it to custom?
