  • Nearly done! Migration cleanup is mostly done. There are a small number of issues left that we continue to work on, but all the heavy lifting is done. We still would love to hear feedback over at this thread and also check out the new XDA app! Thanks and we hope you enjoy the new forums, and thanks for your support of XDA <3

Not sure if this is common with non stock ROM, but trying to encrypt the phone from the OS fails and results in a lock out. At least for me.

Is there any way to re-enable encryption?
No bugs encountered after roughly 3 hours of use.

Thanks in advance.

Thank you for continuous contribution to XZ1c!
I would like to further clarify some points as follows:
1. Am I able to use camera button like with stock firmware?
2. How is the camera quality as compared to stock firmware?
3. Does always-on Google assistant work?
Again, thank you and wish you have a nice day!

Think I found a minor bug, the location icon in the status bar sometimes fail to disappear. Indicating it is permanently in use. Turning location on/off does not remove it, nor does aeroplane mode.
Only a full reboot seems to correctly remove the icon.

The toggle to turn location on/off works fine, just the status bar icon dosn'te go away.

EDIT:
Beta version 2 seems to have fixed this, at least it seems to be working correctly after updating.
