Hello, I found 2 major bugs for me:

- Firstly, I wanted to link a new bluetooth device on my Pixel 7 pro, but the phone was not able to find any bluetooth device, the scan was not able to start. I activated/deactivated the airplane mode then the bluetooth scan worked again.

- Secondly, I'm using a Samsung Watch series 5, I was able to link to my phone, but after the first issue (bluetooth scanning issue), I was not able anymore to connect/link my watch to my phone, I was able to scan the watch but the connection failed every time. I reinitialised my watch, now the watch is connected, but if I will activate/deactivate the bluetooth again on my phone, this will broke again the connection between my watch and my phone... It seems that the phone is not able to keep the association when bluetooth is disabled and activated again (no issue with the original rom)

I second the Galaxy Watch 5 issue! It seems like that's exactly what's happening.

But as I'm using sensitive data, like bank apps, google Pay... I reinstalled the stock firmware, you never know, someone can implement a malicious code or a backdoor in a custom firmware..

Great ROM, thanks.

Is there a way to adjust the double tap gesture sensitivity? I have mine setup to take a screenshot, and it's incredibly sensitive. To the point I can just set the phone down on a table and it will take a screenshot. My gallery is filling up with screenshots :ROFLMAO:

I had to turn that feature off lolol. So many random screenshots

Thank you for the update!

Question: the function to separate notifications and ringtone sound was from evolution, or from the aosp ROM? There is no more that function!

Cheers

    Day two running the latest build. I've been running this phone hard and messing with absolutely every mod and customization option possible. I cannot find a bug. I'm trying, and I just can't find any lol. If you're on the fence and coming from stock and your reading this, just go ahead and install!

    Kernel can be flash after the EvoX? Also, what kernels are peeps using that they like?

    OP says to be sure you're on April firmware.


    There are no differences between April/May firmware.

    So far, I really like the Evo X. But one thing caught me... What do I have to install or do to have live wallpapers again?

    You mean the pixel live wallpapers? Google limits the ability to expose them to Pixels wallpaper/theme picker only. However, there are ports of the wallpapers scattered across the internet, including xda. Though most of those packages do not include all the wallpapers. Just something you'll have to cope with when running a ROM that doesn't use pixels wallpaper/theme picker.

    This is the first custom I've ever flashed on my Pixel 7 Pro due to being very content with stock rooted and ASOP Mods to fulfil my customisation needs.

    I must say I am very impressed! Installation was smooth and I didn't even need to 'faff' around with patching Magisk due to the simplicity of adb sideloading Magisk (note: for some reason the apk renamed to having a .zip extension didn't work, I needed to simplify it's name to "magisk.zip" which flashed perfectly. I was able to flash Kiri kernel via FKM (either perhaps because May stock had the relevant disabled flags or maybe EvoX just allows custom kernels to be flashed out of the box?).

    There is a wealth of features which is great to have and everything just works! With the Kiri kernel everything is super smooth and even on the first overnight settling it was pulling 0.5% p/h battery, which I presume may only but improve over time.

    Highly recommended, a big thanks to all involved in this rom :)

    You tell me :cool:

    DO NOT FLASH GAPPS, ALREADY INCLUDED

    VvzRh0K.png

    Please note that the required April/May firmware images are shipped with these builds. However, you will need to be on STOCK stable April/May prior to following these instructions, not QPR BETAS OR A14DP! This includes having custom kernels installed. STOCK MEANS STOCK!

    First Time Install
    1. Download vendor_boot & rom for your device from here
    2. Reboot to bootloader
    3. fastboot flash vendor_boot vendor_boot.img
    fastboot reboot recovery
    4. While in recovery navigate to Factory reset -> Format data/factory reset and confim to format the device.
    5. When done formatting, go back to the main menu and then navigate to Apply update -> Apply from ADB
    6. adb sideload rom.zip (replace "rom" with actual filename)
    7 (optional). Reboot to recovery to sideload any add-ons (e.g magisk)
    8. Reboot to system & #KeepEvolving

    Update
    1. Reboot to recovery
    2. While in recovery, navigate to Apply update -> Apply from ADB
    3. adb sideload rom.zip (replace "rom" with actual filename)

    4 (optional). Reboot to recovery to sideload any add-ons (e.g magisk)
    5. Reboot to system & #KeepEvolving

    OTA

    1. Check for update. If available, select "Download and install" (approx 10-15 min)
    2. Reboot & #KeepEvolving

    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 init_boot.img from the extracted folder and transfer it to your device
    5. Patch init_boot.img with the magisk application and transfer the patched image to your pc
    6. Reboot to bootloader
    7. fastboot flash init_boot init_boot.img (replace "init_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 & 7a (oriole, raven, bluejay, panther, cheetah & lynx).

    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.
