Looks like a very nice ROM, just installed, but VoLTE, VoWiFi do not seem to work with my carrier with this ROM, unfortunately.

@highdro dang bro, thats one massive ****ing overclock on an i7-9700k. is that all cores also?! how do you achieve this?? you dont run every day like that do you?
Yes, it runs like that 24/7. All cores. Other people can hit 5ghz with around the same voltage, so they say, but I can't. I did not hit the silicon lottery with mine, that is for sure. It's about time to upgrade anyway. But let's not derail the thread further.

Took the plunge and flashed... unfortunately it doesn't see my physical SIM in the phone. I'm on ATT. I'll have to go back to stock for the time being, which stinks since I had to wipe the phone. Can't do anything without my SIM being functional.

Another user had the same issue but after few restarts its fixed ( also remove and place back the sim)

Hi, I'm in the same situation as forcing you to go back to stock rom. On the other hand, the unoficial no problems detecting the sim works flawlessly.

I restarted 5 times with no luck. Didn't pull the sim out but shouldn't need to for it to be seen.
You didn't flash directly from a Google Beta, right? That will cause issues.
Nope, came from regular January.

Stock saw the sim right away. I'll give this another go after the next build.

Appreciate everyone's input

Hey guys,

My Pixel 7 black arrives tomorrow! Very excited as I came from the zenfone 8 which went to the repair centre 3 times #wtf. I plan on flashing this AMAZING rom (feels good to see a great dev community) but I saw the thread on PixelFlasher, I know how to use cmd and all that stuff, but since there is a dedicated tool, is it worth using? Has anyone tried it?

All the best

I already tried with custom rom but didn't succeed. But for stock it's a marvelous tool. So I always apply instructions given with a custom rom.

Very strange experience this morning. I decide to give another go and went through the steps again but it keeps getting stuck when sideloading the rom. I've swapped cables and ports on the PC with the same results. I cannot get it to apply the rom now. I've redownloaded everything several times and reflashed stock to both slots multiple times with full wipes during those. Stock installs with no issue but this just won't today.

Anyone have any thoughts?

Completely reflashed stock to both slots, booted and confirmed stock working.
Changed computers completely and the phone gets to "verifying update package..." but my computer stopped at 6% yet again just like it has every time on my other computer. This is so frustrating since it flashed without issue last night but I had no SIM.

Format data prior to attempting to sideload the ROM as per the OP. Apparently that prevents the sideload getting stuck at a specific percentage

I did format data. I followed the instructions to the T. For whatever reason the serving of the file from the computers to the phone was hanging. On one of the random attempts it went through.

Can anyone point me in the direction of shutting off AOD? I turned off everything I can find related to it but I am most likely missing a switch somewhere.

Getting everything set up and seeing somethings hopefully someone can point out the fix for, since incant find them.

First is an icon in the status bar I can't hide but also don't know what it is.

Second is the gap below the icons on the home screen. Already set the settings to get rid of the keyboard selector and hide the pill but the gap is huge. Would love to shift down. Plus when typing I sometimes get this weird white space.

following the steps outlined in this thread, I rebooted into recovery mode to format data/factory reset.

but at the bottom of the screen, I'm told "error: recovery: failed to receive number of sectors for init,system_b,/dev/block/dm1,/dev/block/dm02,/dev/block/dm-0 from snapuserd daemon
error:recovery:initdmusercow failed

    For convenience of anyone wanting root with the 03-07-23 version (Feb firmware) of Evo, here's the Magisk-rooted init_boot.img that is flashed from bootloader mode.

    Can not sideload latest file. No matter what I try I get:

    Code:
    serving: 'evolution_cheetah-ota-tq1a.230205.002-03070323-unsigned.zip'  (~0%)    adb: failed to read command: Success

    I had to load the old version - that worked. Question is why?
    EDIT: The latest file is ½ the size! I'm guessing it's incomplete or incremental.

    Code:
    serving: 'evolution_cheetah-ota-tq1a.230205.002-02122115-unsigned.zip'  (~47%)

    And why have the last two OTA updates taked over an hour to install?
    1. Being fixed as I type this - SF derped my upload
    2. It's normal for sideloading to stop at 47%.The rest of the process takes place on the device.
    3. We don't use performance mode in our update engine, which prioritizes the process.
    3
    Is used EvoplutionX on my last device and i took the step to flash on my Pixel and was not disappointed.
    Thanks to deliver us this superb Rom, flashing was easy.
    2
    Where do I find the boot.img? In the evolution x file I downloaded or the original stock rom file? I'm trying to root
    Maybe read the OP... Spoiler: you can root by adb sideloading magisk.

    If you want to do it the good ole fashioned way of manually patching you have to use a payload dumper utility to dump the payload.bin inside the Evolution X file. And remember, it's not boot.img (that's for older devices). It is init_boot.img that needs patched for cheetah and panther
    2
    Does it include magisk by default?
    No and it never will.

    Commonly asked questions & answers:

    Q: Why am I getting "error cannot read" while attempting to sideload the ROM or are unable to fastboot flash vendor_boot
    Well, you should be using the latest platform-tools and have it added to PATH. A lot of unofficial drivers floating around on the internet install outdated adb/fastboot along with the drivers. Please refrain from installing these as well as minimal adb & fastboot; Use the official google driver and official platform-tools instead.

    Alternatively you can prefix each adb/fastboot cmd with ./ while in the platform-tools folder via powershell or bash, etc.

    For example:
    ./adb sideload ./rom.zip

    This basically tells the shell "Hey, I want to execute this local binary rather than the one in PATH".

    Q: I'm a windows user and my device is not being listed when I run adb/fastboot devices. I'm using the latest platform-tools, what could be the reason for this?


    Q: I'm a linux user and my device is not being listed when I run adb/fastboot devices. I'm using the latest platform-tools, what could be the reason for this?

    Q: Will you release builds in the update.zip format?
    No, we will not be releasing builds in that format due to a handful of reasons; The main reason being that it is not able to be installed via OTA and is incompatible with our official devices infrastructure.

    Q: Why is MTP and/or Android Auto not working?
    Set the default USB configuration in Settings > The Evolver > Miscellaneous > USB Configuration

    Don't see your question? Well, feel free to post a comment in this thread, we will reply as soon as we can. We'd appreciate if users used XDA FIRST and the telegram group as a LAST RESORT.

    To be continued (I'm sure).

    Custom Kernels:

    Custom kernels may be flashed at YOUR OWN RISK. However, we will not provide extended support regarding such and it is up to YOU, the end user to make your reports in the appropriate thread for X kernel, not in this thread.

    Obtaining root:
    Let it be known that we will not assist anyone with bug reports until they have disabled all modules and restored to the default, unpatched kernel that is shipped with the ROM!

    Root can be obtained by either one of the following methods.

    1. Download the Magisk.apk on your pc (you can change the file extension to .zip if you wish, though it is not required.
    2. Reboot to recovery
    3. Navigate to Apply update -> Apply from ADB
    4. adb sideload magisk.apk (replace "magisk" with actual filename)
    1. Download the full rom.zip from post #2 of this thread
    2. Download payload-dumper-go that corresponds to the architecture of your pc
    3. Run payload-dumper-go against the rom.zip
    4. Grab boot.img from the extracted folder and transfer it to your device
    5. Patch the boot.img with the magisk application and transfer the patched image to your pc
    6. Reboot to bootloader
    7. fastboot flash boot boot.img (replace "boot" with actual filename)

    When an OTA update is available, let it download and install. Before rebooting simply open Magisk Manager and click on the first "install" button and select "install to inactive slot". Once it's done, reboot and enjoy.

    Reporting bugs and submitting logs:

    In most cases logs should be provided when reporting bugs. This can be done by enabling USB debugging in developer options of the device, connecting it to your PC and running one of the following cmds depending on the type of bug/issue while reproducing it:

    General system log
    adb logcat > logcat.txt

    Kernel log
    adb shell su -c dmesg > dmesg.log

    Please provide a detailed description of the bug/issue as well as link/upload the log you had taken.
    There are exceptions to this as some issues are unable to be caught in logs. In this case, it is expected that users provide clear and accurate steps to reproduce the issue.

    Getting involved in the development:

    We've set everything up in such a way where all you need to do is install AOSP build dependencies, initialize a repo client, init the tiramisu-pixel branch of our manifest, sync the code and lunch your device (e.g lunch evolution_cheetah-userdebug); Roomservice will automatically sync all device specific dependencies for you to compile without error. There is no need to manually clone anything due to this and applies to Pixel 6, 6 Pro, 6a, 7 & 7 Pro (oriole, raven, bluejay, panther & cheetah).

    Device and ROM source changes can be submitted on github to the appropriate repositories by making pull requests via comparing forks. Please follow the google patch format for commits and triple check your changes by compile testing and verifying they're correct. Please retain proper authorship if you are not the author!

    It's a server side issue on googles end regarding CTS since this morning on multiple device, not just p7 series running customs. Please keep in mind this is separate from SN not passing by default without modules (which was already fixed, but now there's this).
    Anyways, this was resolved. Builds will be out sometime tomorrow.
