This is the thread about the replacement battery that I found and replaced: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/nokia-8-ta-1052-battery-sustitution.4367581/ and I told you that during the process of trying several batteries my Nokia 8 also had a broken screen but I bought another one (luckily they are not expensive, the one I bought cost me about 25 euros). Now I have the mobile with the new battery and it lasts me about 48 hours with not very intense use and with the AncientOs 6.2 Society so I am very happy.

where did you end up getting it? aliexpress sadly can't ship to me, shipping is crazy for it (DHL express only, over 150$, just not worth it) i am honestly fed up of these batteries myself, it has cost me 2 batteries and 2 lcd's now lol

Will there be new update any time soon?

yes, in the next few days actually. i have rather good and bad news though about the next update.

the reason for this lengthy update is simply updates were no longer possible. we have hit our 3GB system limit and builds no longer build, so we had to re-think the whole Tvirus system.

the good news is we just succeeded in making a new T-virus a few days ago, and is now available, as such i will now be pushing the update soon.

however please note that OTA will NOT be possible for this update, because it requires flashing our new T-virus which in turn will wipe the entire device as it will repartition everything. we have increased system size to 5GB successfully which was rather a risky ordeal and took a lot of time to pull off, but we succeeded in the end.

you will need a full backup and T-virus re-install before updating to the latest builds. going forward, builds will only be compatible with T-virus 2.0.

i will post instructions soon on how to flash it too, i will push 3.7 in next few days alongside it. we needed testing from our users before pushing to XDA, but 3.6.5 and T-virus 2.0 is already avail in our telegram support group if you dont want to wait. (in my links on first page)

Thanks so much for detailed explanation of the current situation🥹 Can hardly believe you guys are doing so much for this zombie phone. I'll do the flashing tomorrow. Can't wait! Again, thank you so much for all the efforts and love you're giving to NB1❤️

3.7 build is up, happy flashing!

please note that T-virus 2.0 is a requirement for this build and all builds going forward. please ensure you backup all your data, and flash it before attempting to flash 3.7 or you will get an error upon flashing.

follow this guide to get T-virus 2.0 installed, links in guide:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/nokia-8-nb1-full-rom-installation-guide.4349525/

warning! all your data will be erased, ensure you have a backup of all your data!

Thanks again for supporting this phone so well! Just curious, does 3.7 already support OTA?

no problem. it is my hopes that ill have enough funds one of these days to repair mine (again)..

OTA does work via dirty flash, but there is no OTA updater unfortunately. i am trying to work on a solution for that, but cherish doesn't include an OTA updater (yet) on A12.

3.7.5 build is up.

this build addresses the broken offline charging in 3.7, as well as a fix for the random camera crashing bug. (i hope it truely fixed it now)

OTA from 3.6.5 or 3.7 is fine.

happy flashing!

    CherishOS is an AOSP based rom focusing on a Unique UI with many customizations.

    Known bugs
    - TWRP recovery does not decrypt internal storage with a pin set, this is TWRP's fault, but does not affect OTAs, cancel when prompted for pin it will say its incorrect.
    - Offline charging animation does not work [FIXED in 3.5.2]
    - Loudspeaker is loud and creates some echo in calls
    - SIM2 mobile data does not work (for dual sim users) but the sim itself works fine [FIXED in 3.5.2]
    - gyro sensor creates a drift in some games [FIXED in 3.6]
    - requires flashing atomix zip for WPA2 hotspot to work (attached) < now included, needs test.
    - you tell me

    Please ensure T-virus-2.0 is installed before attempting to flash this rom! follow this guide here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/nokia-8-nb1-full-rom-installation-guide.4349525/

    The Zip installer is used for easier access when flashing roms, the img is there in case you have forgotten to flash the zip and have lost recovery.


    Flashing instructions

    Clean Flash:

    1. Take a full backup of both your data and internal storage as it may be wiped.

    2. Download the ROM from above link and flash the recovery zip

    3. Download the recovery zip of your choosing and flash it if not already on latest twrp.

    4. boot into recovery and either remove rom pin or wipe internal to have it accessible to copy rom zip over (due to the decryption bug) or just use external sd card to flash.

    5. flash the rom zip and recovery zip again right after the rom zip before rebooting , it will reboot you to recovery automatically in other slot. (optional) cherish recovery included.

    6. Flash any mods you may want

    7. run factory reset from recovery, or wipe /data and /dalvik if you don't want internal wiped.

    8. reboot to system and enjoy!

    (flashing Atomix zip is only needed if you flash the .img to fix hotspot, but not with the zip)

    Installing an OTA (Dirty flash):

    1. Download the ROM from above link

    2. flash the rom zip and recovery zip and let it reboot into recovery.

    3. wipe Dalvik cache only

    4. flash any mods you had previously flashed.

    5. reboot to system and enjoy!

    (flashing Atomix zip is only needed if you flash the .img to fix hotspot, but not with the zip)

    I updated to the new build on Thursday and it's been good so far- no freezes yet. Thanks for fixing the H/W lights!

    Anyways, I'll post a log if it happens again but so far so good.

    To anyone else reading, I currently have 0 issues with this ROM- much better than stock ROM which is stuck at Android 9👍

    GPS is fine, it sometimes wants to recalibrate though. I don't know about aptx-HD but aptx works. Minimum screen brightness feels better with "Extra Dim" setting on the rom. Overall pretty stable but you should be cautious if it's gonna be a big deal for you in case of a problem. I was personally restarting phone around once a week on original software but I am restarting it daily with ROM to make sure it doesn't act weird. PS: That HD audio settings became usable when you connect the device.

    build is updated, the only change is that the H/W lights for keys should now work.

    Happy flashing!
