how to fast charge?All a11 firmware can't fast charge when using not original usb cable.

 

[SamuelChenkual]

Is the a11 firmware to be flashed here?

 

[ConnorSu]

Sir, i just encountered this problem when dirty flashed from evolution_raphael-ota-rq3a.211001.001-10161645-unsigned.zip to evolution_raphael-ota-sd1a.210817.036.a8-11041427-unsigned.zip

I turned on “unlock when i finish the input of the PIN number” on Android 11 EvoX, but after the update to A12, every time I finish the input of correct PIN numbers, the screen goes off and not unlocked. The result is I cannot unlock the phone now.

Who knows how to bypass screenlock in Android 12 or evolution?

UPDATES for cannot unlock the phone.
Here is my method since my phone is unlocked, not encrypted and shipped with TWRP rec.
Flash to TWRP rec, go to Advanced>>File Manager>>data/system/>>delete locksettings.db and locksettings.db-journal
Reboot from TWRP
now the phone's PIN is gone

bootloop to Recovery

 

[Macke93]

Dirty flashing from Evo X android 11 didn't go well
"Phone is starting" is stuck on display, dirty flashing back to Evo X A11 didn't work either. Neither does restore via TWRP work.

I guess I'm going to clean install it and re-setup every app once again
Anyway, thanks for already putting out an android 12 build for us

Dirty flashed from another A12 ROM, all good. The only issue, with the ROM itself, is Monet not theming third party icons. Hope this feature will be added soon! Great ROM, as always.

 

[Rabanero]

Situation: Clean flash, no DFE, Magisk and fingerprint+security pattern.

I found "Phone is starting" bug when entered SIM pincode and before security pattern (and I cannot enter because of previous message). I solved it restarting SystemUI only, so it seems bug is there. Bug repeats always when I reboot, but not when phone autolocks.

Other things: it seems there isn't any recovery compatible with A12 data encryption. So, if you don't want to use DFE (like me) you will need to flash things with ADB or USB-OTG until there will be a solution.

And another minor issues, but they are reasonable things for first release:
- There isn't any customization of inmersive navigation, so the blank space on the bottom and with the navigation pill is again here.
- I don't like the bunch of new preinstalled programs like Youtube Music that are not available to unistall.
- Theme color customization is poor. I don't like default pink and pastel colors and I miss theme chooser with pure black backgrounds (for battery saving also). There isn't any chance by now.

After that... WOOOOW. WE HAVE A12! HURRA! Thx Evolution Team!

 

[Emenaria]

If anyone is wondering how to flash Magisk, you can do it with this method.

Installation

The Magic Mask for Android

topjohnwu.github.io

Basically, I installed app-debug.apk (Magisk Canary) from https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk, patched the boot.img extracted from evolution_raphael-ota-XXXXXXXXXX.zip with the app, copied the patched image to PC, boot into fastboot and flashed it with this command "fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img"

thanks @joeyhuab for the Android 12. this rom is smooth on my K20 Pro. but 1 small thing is missing. can you bring back the option to revert the button layout in case user uses 3 button layout

 

[ovir0ck]

Thanks a lot Team. We are looking for this.

What is the safetynet and root status of this ROM.
Also please let us know the battery backup of this rom. Can it be used as daily driver ?

Safetynet passes by default. Use Magisk Canary for rooting then Enable Zygisk to hide from banking apps. It's stable enough.

 

[joeyhuab]

Gapps included?

Yes.

Yes.

Yeah i think best not to dirty flash here

Correct.

 

[Macke93]

Is there a way to have a working recovery? It can't decrypt, it doesn't even show option to type in passcode.

I can't install. Dirty and clean flash doesn't work fine for me :\ Everytime I have a bootloop to TWRP :\ I don't know what should I do

I don't know if this is related, but I had that issue when trying to dirty flash A12 EvoX from a A11 EvoX. Installing the DTBO file from page 151 in EvoX A11 thread solved this issue for me.

Backup your DTBO before trying.
