Hello
Magisk works great with this rom
Personnally I use Magisk Stable V23.0, and with hide feature you'll be able to keep passing SafetyNet

 

[Lil Geeky]

Hello! Thanks for your time.
Is face unlock available in the rom?

 

[LoganDeveloper]

Hello! Thanks for your time.

Hello
Sorry, but face unlock is not yet available, maybe in a future build

Anyway, a new fingerprint reading system from Google is implemented in this build. It seems to work great, even with screen off.

 

[Blociaczek]

Hey. Does fingerprint unlock works on Always On Display? In CherrishOS I couldn't unlock my phone while it was locked on AOD. Sometimes it worked, sometimes it doesn't. Is Google Pay working on that rom?

Hello!
During my tests it worked without any issue. If sometimes it doesn't recognise your finger, try to register the same finger twice


I don't use Google pay, but it should work as the rom let you pass SafetyNet by default and Google pay meets the security requirements

I installed rom but i had various problems. The phone was lazy when unlocking. Instead of the lockscreen wallpaper, the homescreen was visible in the place where I locked the phone. Charging animation turns on late, as if the phone had a lag when connecting. I think there is no Always On Display. I couldn't find the option that turns it on.

what Camera app do you recommend?

I'm sorry you're encoutering these issues, everything is ok for me. Could you record logs when you plug/unplug your phone please? (For example using the mat log app from play store)


To enable Always on Display, go in Settings -> Display -> Lock screen -> Always show time and info

 

[David-Thiris]

Hey! Thank you very much for the rom.

So far everything has worked correctly for me!

I have a question regarding the widget "at a glance", there is no way to deactivate it. Even if it is disabled in the launcher, the time still appears and there is no way to remove it.

thanks again

P.D: sorry for my bad english xp

Yeah, I think you can't remove it from the launcher.
If you really don't want it, you can use another launcher.

Anything I can do to encrypt the phone? Tried the option in Settings and also modifying fstab, but always end in bootloop. Or do I have to wait until the rom is more advanced? Regards

For this moment you can't, there are problems between Android 12 and encryption

 

[bizz4ever]

can we hide nav bar with magisk?

 

[LoganDeveloper]

can we hide nav bar with magisk?

Sure, the "Fullscreen/immersive gestures" module can do that

And it should be integrated directly in the rom next release

 

[deltalein]

I have not ring-back tone .

 

[SamoSempai]

Hi, I have a little problem, I can boot into Evolution x, but storage doesn't seem to be working, I mean when I open storage option in settings or go to google play for updating chrome for example, it is not working, is there a fix for it?
