[S][CORAL] [Mayl] Descendant 12.1

[GROOVYJOSHCLARK]

I am back on descendant for a bit to help others (test a few things I was asked about privately), but I just noticed there is a June update (but it still shows MAy in OP) so you might not know. My ojnly point is if you didnt update (or see it), theres a 6/10 update (Descendant_coral-12.1-20220610) available. I am about to test this new ROM update (in depth), but so far, I kinda like this ROM a lot! My only other DD is LOS, but I kinda like these features so I might remain for a while.

Same her. I keep finding myself coming back. I've been able to use other mods to get just about as many features as crDroid, but up to where I want it. Everything also just works within Descendant with Balls being preinstalled(live translate, all the Google dialer features, etc).

One feature I really like is the double tap your phone gesture, and apart from that. Really makes me miss my Pixel 2 XL swipe down on the FP for notifications.

Yeah I like it too but I'm back on LOS already, there were annoyance that couldn't be overcome with the current ROM so I'm back on LOS. I'll keep testing the ROM as it matures but for now, I'm back on LOS because of stability and performance.

What's soli

What's soli

From Google:

Google's Soli is a purpose-built chip to track your motion on a microscopic scale. It uses miniature radar for real-time motion tracking of the human hand; it's able to track sub-millimeter motion at high speeds with great accuracy.

Short version is hardware that helps with tracking movement verses the older method of using software-based tracking.

Great resource here. Pretty much useful.

So it's like a fitness tracker?

Does Google call screener work?

Known bugs:
With default PPI the DnD button on top of the volume slider doesnt show. This is being worked on.

What is the dnd button?

 

[93fuelslut]

Fastboot flash boot boot.img (the one from descendant download)
Boot to recovery
Then adb sideload the ROM.
Sideloading from stock recovery won't work, so flash custom boot.img first

Shouldn't 2nd step be "fastboot erase userdata"?

well so much more than that, its used for many things

I always do + erase system when switching ROMs but the factory format (reset) in recovery does the same thing and most LOS steps say that instead.

DND is Do NOT Disturb

nice! I am more of a classic car / Harley Davidson guy (I built 12 over the years, first one still in HS at age 14)! No joke, I have physical pictures of them builds (even at 14), but this predates cell phones and camera (late 80s), first build was a 78 shovel, but I have had just about every model HD makes or made. On the classic car front, I am not where I would like to be, meaning, I dont have a classic car anymore, my last one was an old caddy (the ones like Elvis had), but my DREAM car, is a 69 SS Chevelle! At some point before I die, I will either buy my SS, or a helicopter (real heli), I am a pilot in training on the side (but still have MANY MANY MANY hours to go before I can fly on my own).

There's just not enough time in the day to do it all so I help with Android enthusiasts to help with my car withdrawals!

My phone just did the same thing. Annoying

I can totally relate to the procrastination part myself. I to like classics myself. I like old early 70's Datsuns

Did you ever try to switch active slots and see if that fixed it?
