adb reboot bootloader (the recovery extract from payload of pa-ruby-alpha-2-oneplus8-20201221.zip)

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

volume botton select boot to recovery

when finish it will auto reboot
reboot to 1st setup screen setting up rom
reboot to recovery Apply update from ADB

adb reboot recovery

volume botton select apply update from adb

adb sideload pa-ruby-alpha-2-oneplus8-20201221.zip

To everyone having issues in installing the ROM I suggest that you extract the payload flash the recovery that was in the extracted payload, reboot to recovery choose apply update from ADB from the recovery and then run the adb sideload command to flash the zip for e.g adb sideload paranoid-android.zip

BTW, if anyone wants to test out a resolution for the crashdump issue, reach out to me on TG. I can't really reproduce the issue too well.

It is still in beta and you will find bugs, if that is not a problem for you then try it and you can help by reporting bugs
I've done this for a long time, unfortunately I can't do it no more because this is my only phone and if something goes wrong I risk to loose my work 😭. I will wait or ask for a backup phone at my family, it's great to help in developing, even with just testing

AOD is fixed, MTP is fixed (maybeTM, only had about 2 people test), will be in Beta 2

    We are very excited to announce the beta of Paranoid Android Ruby, based on Android 11.

    On the first launch, you’ll notice a clean setup with a beautiful wallpaper from Hampus Olsson, who teamed up with us again to create several beautiful pieces of artwork. Hampus is a multi-disciplinary artist whose design stands for itself and we’re glad to have him onboard. We also added further UI touches that we believe enhance the overall user experience. You can find all of the Paranoid Android wallpapers and many more in the Abstruct app, included in our builds.

    Our builds are based on the Code Aurora Forum Android base, which is optimized for Qualcomm platforms and has a higher degree of performance, battery life, and functionality compared to the Android Open Source Project platform. The Paranoid Android team and contributors are focusing on squashing existing bugs, and implementing and improving features, performance, and stability. We are dedicated to providing a user experience with the stability that you can expect from stock ROMs with best-in-class performance and features to help you get the most out of your device.

    Notice

    As we are growing on our list of supported devices in each release, we require of a stronger build environment so we can speed up the compilation process for releases. Based on the actual Quartz 4 list, we support over 30 devices, which takes between 2 and 3 days for all the builds to be completed without counting possible compilation issues or rebuild needs, based on our current specs.

    We kindly ask all of you that are in position to donate anything, to help and support us so we can provide better and faster build releases, as well as increase the download speed of our servers, all looking for your enjoyment.

    You can donate here

    Device-specific issues
    Call related issues on Google Fi
    Miracast

    There are likely many other issues, these are just the most prominent to me. Don't come into this with the expectation any issue you come across will be fixed in a timely manner.

    Note: Custom kernels are NOT supported unless the kernel says it supports PA and GMS is included!

    Requirements

    My preferred logging format is:
    adb logcat -b all -d *:E > logcat-err.log
    adb logcat -b all -d > logcat.log
    adb shell dmesg > dmesg.log

    Then you can upload them to https://del.dog and send me the link for each one.

    Download (Note, OP8 & Pro builds are no longer unified)

    Instructions
    1. Download the latest fastboot zip we released (hint: it has an -image appended to zip name)
    2. Reboot to bootloader.
    3. Flash the fastboot zip with "fastboot update pa-*-signed-image.zip"
    4. Reboot into recovery after it is done flashing & wipe userdata.
    Starting with Beta 4, you must clean flash due to recent commits related to userdata.

    If you already flashed Beta 1, then you can just sideload the OTA in recovery if it is avaliable, although there might be only fastboot images up for the latest version so keep that in mind.

    Fine I knew these developers are not so good. They just released more and more sapphire ROMs alpha for hype but they will never took time to polish perfect them. Dont like them at all. :'(

    I just come here to check if they are great in developing the released roms
    You previously posted messages in the other thread complaining about the lack of update. Not only is your behaviour childish and ungrateful, it is also useless and totally irrelevant. It would be better if you kept your impatience to yourself, and stopped posting those off-topic messages. If you have any useful feedback, or any legitimate questions, feel free to post them. But refrain from posting complains in the futur, you already complained enough.
