@drpradsms
as mentioned above, I installed latest update just today.
no issues so far, as expected as I used a previous version of PiXeN until a week ago [when I decided to get back to OOS].

but in this latest update too, I can't scan QR codes to use whatsapp web. camera focuses the QR code, but there's no association with my PC.
I also tried to rotate the camera [from portrait to landscape], but no success still.
maybe you can look into it.. :)

I quote myself just to pop up the solution to this [if any other user is experiencing it].
I installed GCam on my device before trying to pair my phone with whatsapp web.
tried to pair many times but to no avail.
it finally succeeded in pairing as soon as I set the OOS cam as default in phone settings.
hope this helps.

thanks a lot for your work @drpradsms

Hi. Great experience so far, made me like custom ROMs again!

I got one bug I couldn't find anywhere in the thread - sometimes my pin simply won't work and I need to restart system UI a couple of times before I'm able to unlock the phone. Any way to get rid of that ?

Also some of you mention OTA update - I don't see an option in settings, am I missing something ?

dont' have the PIN issue you mentioned. did you wipe everything [except internal storage] before flashing pixen?
try to wipe and flash again, but before flashing make sure you remove Android folder into your internal storage [it's the place where many apps put their files, it may be something your phone doesn't like and restart your SystemUI on PIN input].

about system updates, check this video out: https://streamable.com/r72mk

Thanks,

I did wipe everything but also did a format after installing, because I was looping back into recovery.

Something must've gone not totally right with flashing as I'm also not seeing system update option in system (that's where I looked in the first place, simply not there).

I'll try clean install sometime later :)

I listed the very steps I followed to install PiXeN onto my device which ran latest OOS previously flashed via fastboot and used for a few days. no issue at all.

Is there a way to have ambient display without touch? At the moment it allows you to swipe up from ambient display into the unlock screen and I absolutely hate this. I keep accentually touching it while the phone is in my hand when I use it as a flashlight or just generally carrying it.

Also any plans to incorporate the OnePlus gestures? The side swipe is ok but the OnePlus is soooo much better.

    With 7th March 2020 Update, I have introduced Flawless updates through updater app.
    
    When an update is available, you’ll get prompt for it.
    
    From the Updater, Just Download it , Install and Reboot.
    *
    After download it just takes 15 minutes if encrypted and 10mins if decrypted all happening in *Background
    You can use your phone during this.
    As simple as that.
    
    If you are rooted, root will be retained. No worries.
    
    For flawless updates to work on decrypted system, make sure you’re decrypted on both slots.
