8T owner here.
is updating the firmware a necessity for the latest update? I Think I am still on F15.

Do I keep magisk root after adb sideloading the f62 firmware?
[ UPDATE] Yeah I read that it does, and it does. I just wanted to make sure

Easiest way is to right click the zip in file explorer, click "rename", the name is highlighted automatically, then press ctrl+C, then in Windows right click to paste the name. If its a zip, you need to add ".zip" to the end of it without quotes
Hello
This needed if i in latest oxygen 13?
Mean ddr5/4 check needed anymore if someone in oo13 latest?
This maybe not related to Evolution X but I'm recently noted a subtle display issue along the whole edge of the screen where the power button i located.
It keeps doing this minuscule shift in brightness, easiest notable using dark mode and observing the dark color bg shifting at random.
Looking at it overall I've noted a uniformity issue where that part of the display is slight brighter. So it's possible that the whole display is shifting but it's more notable at that part of the screen.
I've checked this of course with auto brightness off and at a few different brightness levels.
Any thoughts or similar issues?
[UPDATE] Disabling "Smart Display " seems to remedy the flickering, probably caused by the display going from 60-120 back and forth.
I've enable force 120hz in the developer settings instead. Might cause a slight raise in battery usage but that no real issue.
The uniformity issue is this there though, it might be a slight green tint. Reading about those dreaded green bar issues got me thinking that the uniformity is a hardware issue and that it could get progressively worse in time.

I noticed that no one replied to you. Yes, this should work, since the fix for that was merged some time ago.Has anyone tried a USB C to HDMI adapter with the OP8 and this ROM? It seems like on OOS11, it worked fine for everyone. And then apparently newer OOS it no longer worked. I don't own the adapter so I can't confirm that, but many people say it. So I wonder if it was something Oneplus broke and never fixed, which might work AOSP ROMs
Hello, thanks for the awesome rom VoLTE doesn't worked on any official rom but worked on your rom . One minor thing is how to make Netflix app work it just stays on the logo and then give error device failure 500.-172.Google is of no help
In my experience with the volte issue on other official roms, I found that once you boot the rom and notice volte not working if you flash the rom again it usually brings volte back. I have noticed this with custom kernels too. I first noticed this on the oneplus 6t and, later on the one plus 8. You are correct though that this rom works out of the box on first install.
Thinking about going on this rom from stock oos13. My main question is how is the phone performing in terms of heating while normal usage ? Also does it heat using on stock 65w charger(before stock oos13 I was on derpfest and never experienced phone heating this much it all started after going to stock rom) so I would like to know how is on evolution x?
Thanks
Thanks
I have not experienced any over heating issues on the oneplus 8 at all. Also this rom is 100% better than stock. Just my 2 cents.
I see myself charging twice a day, similar ROMs behaviors are the same with manual brightness
Yes, if you know you have both slots with the correct firmware, that step isn't necessary.
I read that Evolution launcher is replaced with Pixel Launcher, which is a shame, is there an option to apply custom icon packs to the Pixel Launcher? I know that it isn't natively supported but my question is that if the new rom build have an option to do that?

Same thing happened to me after update to 7.9 today. Never happened before.2
Unfortunately, I have this same issue to,o found my phone off twice sitting by itself now (v7.9). If this happened to you on Lineage, must be something in the shared code. Unfortunately i'm rooted (no modules) so can't blame rom. Wonder, are you also rooted?2
I also haven't had this since updating to 7.9, which is typically longer than I went prior to updating before having the issues. I'll keep a lookout for this, but based on what I can see it seems like 7.9 may have fixed the issue! Awesome and thank you Anierin!1
1. That fc is due to users not clearing data of the app to remove old saved preference states as I have mentioned here 3 times now.
2. Hotspot works completely fine on my end and you're the only person who's said anything about it so far.
3. Smart charging is making it's way back into upcoming releases.
4. Select from recents is a proprietary feature of pixel launcher. So that's why you can't use it anymore, because we switched back to our Launcher3 fork, Evolution X Launcher.1
You can't access the apps info panel from recents as it is injected into settings via IA and launched from there, so it will show up as Settings. You need to go into the actual app list for system apps and find OPlusExtras, clear its data and reboot. -

1. Those builds for OnePlus 8/8Pro were updated to use qcom wrapped key encryption changes (which was clearly in the changelog). It should be a given that any changes to encryption would result in having to format data. I also intentionally mismatched the hashes in our OTA updater system so OTA would fail due to such. You know, there's a "Device Support" link in the OP thread you also could have joined to ask.
2. I've explained my stance on OOS cam multiple times. Just because "other ROMS" include it doesn't mean I have to. My ROM, my rules. Use something else if you have an issue with that as you're under no obligation to use my ROM, just as I am under no obligation to add anything I don't want to. Also, there are very impressive GCAM mods (with the appropriate XMLS) for OnePlus 8 series and we now ship Aperture from LOS, which just added support for OIS as well as 4k/60fps video recording on main lens + aux lenses.
3. "What I'm saying is that this one In particular isn't stable and feature-rich enough to be a daily driver." The ROM is pretty stable and full of features, so I don't understand what made you come to that conclusion though you are entitled to your own opinion (emphasis on opinion, as it isn't factual). I believe my user count, the amount of work I put into squashing bugs & working directly with OnePlus LOS devs to fix issues in the base device trees, etc shows the complete opposite of your "opinion".12Commonly asked questions & answers:
Q: Why am I getting "error cannot read" while attempting to sideload the ROM
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 runadb/fastboot devices. I'm using the latest platform-tools, what could be the reason for this?
Use the official Google USB driver
Q: I'm a linux user and my device is not being listed when I runadb/fastboot devices. I'm using the latest platform-tools, what could be the reason for this?
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).
Firmware update:
FLASHING THE WRONG DDR TYPE WILL SEMI BRICK YOUR DEVICE. THE ONLY WAY TO RECOVER FROM THIS IS BY PURCHASING AN EDL DEEP FLASH CABLE AND USING IT IN-CONJUNCTION WITH MSMTOOL!!
1. Check your DDR type using the following command:
adb shell getprop ro.boot.ddr_type
0 = ddr4
1 = ddr5
if getprop returns an empty value, use the following commands instead (requires root):
adb shell su cat /proc/devinfo/ddr_type
DDR4 = DDR4
DDR5 = DDR5
1. Download and flash the firmware zip that matches your device and DDR type:
8 (instantnoodle)
8 Pro (instantnoodlep)
8T (kebab)
9R (lemonades)
2. Reboot to recovery and then sideload the ROM.
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)
Retaining root across OTA updates:
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 branch of our manifest, sync the code and lunch your device (e.g lunch evolution_instantnoodlep-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 OnePlus 6, 6T, 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro, 8, 8 Pro, 8T, 9R, 9 & 9 Pro (enchilada, fajita, guacamoleb, guacamole, hotdogb, hotdog, instantnoodle, instantnoodlep, kebab, lemonades, lemonade & lemonadep).
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!
