The services that are started by the legacy blobs we are using don't start at the right time at boot. This leads to several HALs not functioning correctly after boot. The one with the most issues is the camera HAL. I'm sure you've seen it yourself that the camera is unavailable after device boot on some other ROMs if you've flashed them and somehow a reboot fixes it

Encryption restarts several of these services, we need these restarts to get certain HALs to start correctly. I've never seen anyone with encryption report issues with the camera HAL or any other HAL because these are made to restart several times during encryption and are available after boot the way they are supposed to be

Also as per Google's CTS, Amy device that can support encryption at a speed higher than 50 Mbps should encrypt before the user sees the welcome screen. In our case the encryption performance is 150 Mbps+ (speed of the chip)
Thanks for the info :). I recently installed this ROM and all is OK so far except when I make a call the dialler force closes and the reopens fine on it's own. Is this a known bug or is there a fix for this?

It's a common issue on cosmic-os. All dual SIM devices are affected. You might want to message them for the fix

I flashed the modified TWRP, then did a full wipe & installed cosmic OS. Didn't even get to the boot animation. So I decided, lets go back to stock TWRP.. bad idea. It couldn't recognize/read sdcard or data partition at all..

Ended up having to manually push the "modified" twrp via ADB drivers from PC.. Why is this TWRP not letting me go back to the official one?

You should have used the TWRP suggested in this Thread to revert back not the stock...

How come? I am using cosmic OS v3.1

I don't have this what you call known bug with cosmic-os. It is only with latest build!View attachment 4569104

Didn't the version of the ROM get incremented?

3.1 -> 3.2

There were huge changes between these versions and the calling issue you're reporting is being reported on several other dual SIM devices. It's not just the op2

that's like a bandaid fix & there should be a warning on the OP in big bold letters stating: f this "modified" TWRP is irreversible. going from one modified TWRP to another modified TWRP isn't reverting back to the official in any way

Official is just a tag

Also I'm known on XDA to ignore people who nag

Anyway all you have to do is flash the other ROM you want with my enhanced twrp and boot. At boot the ROM will run an fsck on data and remove all disk quota structures. Once you boot your other ROM you can use fastboot or the inbuilt twrp flasher to go back to official

Be careful that you don't accidentally flash a nougat ROM or oxygenos, this is obviously not supported. The ROM you're switching to has to be an Oreo ROM. It doesn't matter which

Read this

Also if you use the search button on this thread you'll find a similar explanation by me

TWRP needs to be updated for that feature which is why the older official TWRP can't mount /data at all

Also I'd like to add

The next build will add hardware accelerated encryption and enforce it at boot

You can't switch from cosmic-os/glassrom to any other ROM because of 2 things
Platform signatures will change and the keymaster might recycle your key. Be careful because this means that data can't be decrypted even with the password

No ROMs other than cosmic-os and glassrom support hardware accelerated encryption so they'll have a hard time decrypting data

So if you want to switch from the next build onwards you'll have to format data in TWRP

Is this my problem? No, other ROMs should have followed the CTS and enabled these features on oreo as directed by Google. If they wish to use the "but we're not a manufacturer ROM" reason it's their problem and I couldn't care less if you switch to a ROM that doesn't follow the CTS carefully

I've followed these instructions as written, using the latest build, but I never saw an encryption screen. I do not know what is wrong, or if my installation didn't work properly. The ROM still booted. The only thing I can think is that this is caused by something I've installed along with the ROM. I installed Magisk 16 for root, and OpenGAPPS. If either of these may have caused the problem, I can redo the process from the get-go and see if that fixes anything. Thank you for you time.

We had a mess and 2 branches with pulsar-release and pulsar_release were created for op2

The build system didn't pick up the change correctly. Should be fixed next build

So then everything is working properly? Alright thank you very much for your help! I look forward to the next build! I do have one more question if that is alright. I can't seem to find the update function in this ROM. Now I know this feature was present in previous cosmic builds, so I guess I would like to know if this feature was removed or if I'm just being stupid
