[OxygenOS Pie] Closed Beta *** Leaked build available ***

[himsin]

Did you used stock or TWRP recovery?

Flashed in latest twrp (fix3 version)

Magisk is working, I'm now using the closed beta with Magisk 18.1.
At first boot Magisk Manager (the application) was not installed and I had to install it manually. Also, Magisk Manager was saying that Magisk was not installed, but a reboot solved it. Now it is working perfectly.
And, if you were responding to me, I'm sorry I wasn't very clear, I wanted to keep the phone decrypted (disabling force encrypt at first boot), but I have failed and I'm using the phone encrypted at the moment.

Thanks mate. My phone was also decrypted and first boot took around 15 mins. I guess it was encrypting entire storage. I was about to lose patience and then it came up. Anyway, good thing is there are no chances of data lose of internal storage.

For people who are on stock oreo rom, you guys can dirty flash or sideload the leaked build without doing factory reset.

Fix3 version = official v3.2.3-1?

Nope, use unofficial version via our official maintainer https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=1395089523397907195
YOU can read more about it in official twrp thread.

I think it's still a good idea to do a backup of internal storage though. So far multiple sources seem to agree that the leaked build is very stable and daily driver material. I wouldn't be surprised if the official build will be the exact same one as the leaked one. Gonna give it a go too and flash it today.

Yup, I also wasn't sure that this build would work on decrypted storage. So i was prepared for loss of data and did a adb pull of whole sdcard before flashing the build.

Are there any bugs you could see so far with the build or is it rock solid so far?

I'm very impressed so far... Looks very stable.
Everything I use is working perfect!

Just a small tip: if you want to keep TWRP you must flash magisk before reboot or else stock recovery will overlap TWRP

Was your bootloader locked when you flashed it? I just read that if you try to flash the leaked ROM with the new Pie firmware and your bootloader is unlocked then it will corrupt your internal storage and you must then wipe your whole device which means you will lose all your data including internal storage.

Did you have an unlocked Bootloader when you flashed the leaked build?

Yeah I had to do that, not sure if it was because of my unlocked bootloader or because I had encrypted device

 

[BBuZZ]

Nope.. full stock...

But if you have unlocked bootloader with TWRP you can flash it also, but need to do full wipe and format data..

Unlocked bootloader and stock recovery, I don't know...

I think it's both, there is a bug according to the LineageOS dev for our device that if your data is encrypted and your bootloader is unlocked then you will corrupt your internal storage data after flashing the leaked build. Something to do with the new Pie Firmware. Oneplus is aware of it though and apparently is working on a fix.
Did it relock your bootloader after you flashed the leaked Build?

Does Google Pay work with this inofficial release?

 

[jfodra]

Just to clarify the procedure on installing this. Wipe data, system, cache then install via twrp, flash magisk then factory reset before rebooting?

 

[abhibnl]

Guys, if you have an unlocked bootloader, please know that flashing this ROM will corrupt internal storage and you have to format internal storage and it will only run in encrypted status. If you want to stay decrypted, I think we should better wait for next version or directly stable version.
I would highly recommend to keep a backup on internal storage and a OOS 5.0.8 ROM ready if you want to flash this leaked build.

Can you please install "AIDA64", go to "display" and post a screenshot of gpu drivers version?

 

[Scarface1991]

Just flashed it and so far seems good. My data was corrupted at boot but I knew it would happen. Bootloader is still unlocked and Magisk is working.
I'm probably gonna try to install Xposed later on because of GravityBox. I hope it works

* Bootloader unlocked
* Decrypted

1st boot takes more than 10 min

Edit: I didn't lost my internal data.
