*EDIT* So i headed over to the official telegram for this rom and asked them about the issues.. I only flashed jan 5 update on one slot.. lol. so issue 1 and 2 aren't issues.. this ROM really is that good. Install, find out yourself. 3rd problem is because I guess google locks the wallpapers to their official roms only.

Okay, been running this for a few days now.. couple of issues.


1. I don't know if I somehow botched my adb update rom processs (highly doubtful) but I do not have an option for using my fingerprint. Theres the usual manual lock options, like pin and pattern, and it even has face unlock... but no fingerprint? weird.

2. I have google fi and I don't have a sim card. Strictly E-SIM. Which it is beginning to look like this ROM doesn't' support at all.

3. Very minor issue as it can be manually done with patched apks, but the live wallpaper updates aren't on there. Not even the live bloom ones. Really not that big of a deal but whenever you install patched ones it creates 2 'Wallpaper and Styles' apps on your phone which really bugs the **** out of me lol.

Overall though the most feature-rich and customizing ROM to date. Although, without the first two points I made, since my P7P is my daily driver, prolly going back to stock for now. This maintainer obviously knows what hes doing, because every feature WORKS in this ROM. What i mean is, fingerprint and e-sim is not even in the settings.. I'm guessing they caused issues somehow and so he debugged and decided to remove. pretty obvious this maintainer has put many many hours working on this masterpiece. too bad this wasn't my backup phone or i would definitely stay. in system settings this rom has stuff I've never seen before.. Like a parallel space app for installing multiple instances for apps.. it has a ticker to tick on or off the option for google services function and core apps.. literally just one tick away from lineage, how awesome! it has a netflix and google photos unlimited storage spoof! it has jitter analyzer built into the settings.. it has like 9 different button styles for the clear all icon in the notifications bar... and that's just a few that i could think of off the top of my head.. TRY THIS ROM OUT! (presuming my first three points i made aren't a deal breaker for you)

Good job Evo Team/AnierenB/RealAkito!

Fingerprint is definitely there so I'm not sure what happened on your end. Maybe an issue restoring? I never restore anything.
This rom won't let me flash after installing the recovery. What the hell? Straight up error.
You seem to have a lot of problems. Adb sideload stopped at 7% for me the first time. Unplugged it and rebooted back into recovery, installed fine.

Working very well with Kirisakura, screen off time includes YT music playing on Bluetooth.
The only tiny issue I encountered is Night Light won't turn off automatically in the morning, but other than that fantastic rom!

This looks awesome! I haven't had the urge to flash a ROM on this phone yet but little quirks with stock are starting to bug me. How many of the pixel features do we sacrifice by putting this on our phone?

Awesome work, much appreciated.

I did the directions. I flashed the vendor boot and made the recovery, after re installing the January stock firmware. I did a factory reset and got an error no adb. It wouldnt even attempt. Did I download the wrong file or something? I made sure I'm using cheetah which my phone is pixel 7 pro. It's being stubborn to the point I'm giving up trying to install stag os or evolution x.

Well you should be using the latest platform-tools and device drivers from google; See post 3 section 1. Something is obviously not correct on your end, everyone else is able to flash just fine.

This is something I'm looking into for some carriers, should be resolved on the next build

    i have flashlight bug too. also random ui crashes after qs pulling down.

    Yeah I flashed May Stock before flashing this.
    Should I try Beta stock?
    Nooo, not as far as I'm aware... Will have another read of OP but pretty sure it says to NOT use the beta builds. If you're gonna try another stock base rom, could try April.

    EDIT: this is from OP '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!'

    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?

    No doubt most are aware but a brief note for those of you rooted and want to keep root....

    Update via ota (settings/system/system update.
    DO NOT REBOOT once the install is finalised.
    Open magisk manager app, select install magisk (not app), choose 'install after ota'. Reboot.

    This will install magisk to inactive slot. Root will be maintained
    3
    OP says to be sure you're on April firmware.


    There are no differences between April/May firmware.

    I flashed the evolution ROM twice now in the past 3 weeks. I gave up the first time cause the phone does not have a mobile connection. I tried it again now but with the same issue - no mobile network. Is anyone facing this issue on Pixel 7PRO?

    You're the only person I've had mention that so far, everyone else seems to be running the ROM just fine on 7, 7 Pro and 7a. Make sure you have the proper firmware installed prior to flashing the ROM, as the latest 7/7 Pro builds may not have it included.

    Also, please do not quote the entire original post (op) next time.

    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

    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.
