I flashed this firmware and everything is fine. But when I flashed magisk, the screen seemed to move a little to the right. The screenshot is OK, but it can be seen in the photo.

This issue showed at one or two latest StatiXOS Android 11 builds for mata, after installing Magisk. According to Anay, one the team devs, it could be related to "the kernel thinks you’re in recovery, so it shifts the whole framebuffer 64 pixels".

The fix was to use a kernel from previous builds not affected or to wait until the issue can be fixed with StatiXOS Android 12, because Android 11 builds were EOL.

Currently in use, the problems found are that the night light mode is invalid, and the hot spot is opened, setting the password, and others' connection fails

I noticed that, even in previous versions of statixos 4.x, there is a wifi performance gap. On the aosp version, for example, the test is passed with about 300mbps in download, while on statixos it is around 100mbps. Have you also noticed this?

I love this ROM and am very appreciative of the work you've done to keep my favorite phone off all time going. Magisk compatibility would be a nice addition. And maybe a pixel launcher version that allows the 2X2 grid pattern and super large icon folders on the desktop. Old people approved. Good work.

is it that good? I've been wanting to install it but I fear of bugs and battery issues (since my battery is already trash because of age)

It is fast. I haven't noticed a difference in battery life. Chrome doesn't work. I use the 🦆 browser. Even the 360 mod works. The screen and battery are really easy to replace. I did it on the PH-1 here. My white one is stock and it's 🔋 is a little tired. The ROM probably fully works on Verizon. I switched to Visible and it only partially works. It fully works on my Mint SIM.

It doesn't really have any customization options other than the normal A12 stock ones. I also noticed yesterday that I can no longer flash boot images or even restore it to stock firmware. The AB partitioning seems to be gone. Love the ROM but there should be a way to leave it. I may have just not figured it out yet.

I haven't used this rom yet but as far as I know, a rom can't remove the A/B partitioning on a device

This awesome ROM is flashed just like flashing the stock firmware using flashall.bat. When I try reflashing the stock firmware, it says NO NO. The size of some file is too large. If I try to flash just any boot image, including the one from this ROM, to _a or _b in fastboot... It says AB partitioning is not supported by this device.

    There's a new StatiXOS 6.1 build for mata, under TIRAMISU brand, both OTA and fastboot packages: https://downloads.statixos.com/13-TIRAMISU/mata/

    I tried to install it in a hurry and there were some errors, so I decided to wait until I have some more time to do it properly.
    Thanks for pointing this out, I no longer use this as a daily driver but this flashed without any issues using the fastboot image. I have no comment on functionality aside from wifi works.

    As promised here: The StatiXOS build for mata with all the Pixel goodies is here! This build is a proof-of-concept build which demonstrates how optimized software (and basically 5 year old flagship hardware) can keep a phone going long after a manufacturer (Essential in this case) abandons them.

    This build contains most if not all the latest and greatest Pixel features that you would come to expect from say a Pixel 5. A lot of optimizations I made to the kernel over the months has led you all to this smooth experience and I hope you all like it! Cheers :)

    Download: Nope.

    You would need a full wipe to boot this up and have things work correctly so make sure you backup your device.

    P.S. I apologize for the late release. Had uni finals to deal with 😁

    Oh and by the way, December SPL with Pixel feature drop build is now up and is compatible with Magisk!

    Note: I highly recommend you switch to F2FS; support for which has been included in this build. To migrate userdata to F2FS, simply type the following in a shell prompt:

    Code:
    fastboot format:f2fs userdata

    Magisk request fulfilled. Builds soon :D

    i'm on bliss rom android 10 custom rom. what is the whole process include magisk to switch and install this rom?how do i know about F2FS?
    I basically followed "How to Flash" instructions at OP, but before I started the upgrade process I patched the boot image from the 2021-12-20 build with Magisk and then I created a new StatiXOS zip with it. This way, the installation of the ROM gave me root access since first boot.

    In order to switch to F2FS, I just used the fastboot command posted here, right after the fastboot -w command at "How to Flash".
