Glad I haven't had any such issue. Anywho, you're going to need to do an EDL recovery using the specific package to your phone. Can't recall, but maybe try Google.
This ROM is for the 5G model only. Return to stock with EDL if this is the wrong ROM for you. 5G only.
**Update** -- Odin, I have the 5g. I most likely didn't do something in the right order, but it's working great!
I have the T-Mobile version of the phone, but I can't use Visual Voicemail and the VoWiFi fails, too. They enable, but they functionally fail. (Video calls also terminate after a second or two.) Almost all ROMs with the junkware/spyware removed will be faster. I hate all this complete lack of regulations. Next phone is going to be a primitive non-smart phone. Can't stand the crap anymore.
I've never used any of those features, so I'd probably never notice. Mostly just camera, text, Duo/Meet whatever they call it this month. I'm gonna give them a try right now though and let you know how it works for me.
Yeah, T-Mobile is cheap and refuses to pay for standard software to handle stuff, so they use proprietary means to push their own methods of doing crap. Need the TMO apks. TMO is being pushed rather heavily to adopt RCS, maybe they'll adopt standards. Doubt it, they love spying and selling everything we do.
Yea I experienced that too, but I don't really mind it since I figured which apps I need to avoid which prevents it from happening, still though I will take a crash once a month (when I'm messing around with apps that make my phone crash) over a Chinese made ROM with T-Mobile software on it.
If you don't mind my asking what apps were causing the crashes because when I read my crash logs they blamed the stock camera app (I would tell you the application I'd buy when I checked my log file was corrupted) but even after removing it and replacing it it still blames the crashes on it.
Yep it works, but the optimization built in the hardware causes the phone to shut down around 90-ish percent (at least for me), fast charging also works for me on OOS which I just switched back to for a variety of reasons.
In the PixelExperience recovery there is no "system wipe" option. How can then I do this (step 5)?
My bad, yea in the recovery the only thing you need to do is 'Factory Reset'
Thanks for clarification. I tried this and moved to next point. When I try to sideload rom.zip (point 7) I get the following error:
Step 1/2
Error applying update: 7 (ErrorCode::kInstallDeviceOpenError)
E:Error in /sideload/package.zip (status 1)
