Looks like 5.4 was released today, and 5.3 was outright removed from the download page, rather than being available as an older version.

Anyone have a chance to try it out yet?

@gibranm never released anything above 5.1, has changed his primary device aswell and probably not building EVOLUTION for taimen anymore according to updates.

What download page are you looking at?

Here, but now that I look closer look at the actual filename, "5.4" in the "tamien" folder is either incorrectly named "raphael" but really is "tamien," or it's correctly named "raphael" but incorrectly misfiled in the "tamien" folder and instead should be in the "raphael" folder. Obviously if it's the latter, then it's not for a Pixel 2 XL.

All the other older filenames in the "tamien" folder correctly say "tamien."

I think it's all sorted out now. There's no other taimen release apart from our old one in that folder.
Gibrann is our official builder and his last is 5.2 (Dec).

@deedwar builds his own 5.3, 5.4 etc in his own androidfilehost folder . There's no other publicly available version of EvoX.
You can Google his builds but am not putting link here to avoid confusion to other users.

Is everything working in his 5.4 build?

So I've installed this ROM and have two questions:
1. I see in description it says "4 Statusbar Icon Styles", but i can't find this option anywhere. I wanna change wi-fi and mobile data icon.
2. The "Styles" bar in Google Wallpapers casuses crash of the app, is it ok?
Please help, and thank you!

upd: one more thing... I've noticed that my phone doesn't use fast charging while charging with the OG adapter and OG cable

I updated my pixel 2xl using the "system update" settings to "EvolutionX_5.3_taimen-11". Got the update installed, but now my phone doesn't recognize my screenlock pin and won't unlock. The location is also off so am unable to set a new password using "find my phone". Someone please help. TIA

Edit: can't switch off or reboot as it asks for pin, so can't reset the phone (don't know any other way to reset). Can't switch on location because it asks for pin here as well.

Try holding the power button until the screen goes black, then hold volume down as it boots and you can flash or wipe from the bootloader

    So booted new build on my pixel 2. AOD fixed. Now playing on aod is fixed. Google Assistant 2.0 added. Gaming mode added. Switched over to Pixel's CarrierSettings for apns. So should work the same as stock now. You may need to select the apn on first boot, but after that everything will work fine. Taimen build is compiling right now. Will release later today

    New builds coming soon. NGA (assistant 2.0) and some other pixel goodies coming. AOD should be fixed as well.

    Up and running 3/8 version. Really great.
    But Im not a developer and don't know what Im looking at from a build perspective.

    3/18 installation fails. Consistent from others attempts on Telegram channels.

    Do we have @deedwar's thoughts and input on these builds or his builds more generally? Many are hesitant to use it as 'unofficial' and lots of unknowns.
    Hello. I havent made my releases known because although i do try to regularly build new releases there was a time there that the builds were very unstable. I think i have ironed out most of the bugs and at least from australian mobile networks all the APN's now work without issues. (there were some in the past) As far as the unknowns go i used to be a recognized contributor and all i do is update the device source with new improvements and just build the source as is. I have tended to be busy lately and i do dirty flash releases but i dont have time to do clean installs. So if upload a new release it will work (at least with dirty flash). There was one build recently that gapps got updated and wellbeing i think got removed from the sources and so it kept crashing and i did have to do a clean install. So if you get a app crash from an official app that would be the only reason to clean install.

    If anyone has got a specific question feel free to message me and if i know the answer i will get back to you.
