Development [UNOFFICIAL] LineageOS 20 for the Motorola Edge 30 Ultra (eqs)

[_Hinnie_]

I've been using the rom for a few days now, and so far it's been running great, except for that night light and extra dim don't seem to do anything. I haven't noticed any other bugs though, seems very stable.

Has anyone done any performance tests? geekbench5 or 3dmark?

Just ran a few benchmarks for you:

motorola motorola edge 30 ultra - Geekbench Browser

Benchmark results for a motorola motorola edge 30 ultra with an ARM ARMv8 processor.

Yes, night light and Livedisplay (also color profiles) are under investigation atm.
I know it worked back in october (have a video where that is in use), but at some point broke in november without me noticing at first.

Hello Markus,
is this project dead? I have not seen any updates for a longer time. Or is there a different place where you share info on this?

There is a telegram group https://t.me/MotoEdge30Ultra, and the project is far from dead. There are 2 devs working on the device. Markus, and Cosmin

 

[SGCMarkus]

Added a new link to the download section, which leads to the builds of @Cozzmy13 (gapps included there).
Changelogs include an OSS kernel, NFC working on chinese units, SMS should work on all (including chinese) carriers now!

Just a food for thought, if LineageOS can be booted on this phone, why not a Pixel Experience ROM ?

Nobody said it can't be done.
Someone just would need to work on that (not me, no space for another ROM), and probably get the sm8450 platform patches to PE...

I own the phone and can provide testing support! Just in case some Dev wants to do it.

Hi I follow the system flash procedure up to 46% then it ends what should I do to flash this system

File transfer in ADB goes to ~47%. Afterwards the installing on the phone happens (Step 1/2 and 2/2). After everything is done, adb should switch to "successful" (in rare instances that doesnt happen, for that please check the phones screen, if there is an error or not).
If no error appeared, it should be installed successfully.

If you have the X30 Pro with the latest stock firmware, install the one with gapps 20230219. Older images will fail because the recovery cannot downgrade the newer SPL version found in the stock firmware.

there is no easier procedure to install, flash twrp + swipe flash rom

I flashed latest build from cozzmy and its doing fine. On top with magisk and the AFWall+ is running. The only thing I did not figure out was twrp. When I want to have it but our device is still not listed, which version should i pick? Could somebody share a downloadlink? And could you guys answer how long it might be take, round about, to go official?
Thanks in advance and keep on doing this great work.

I seem to have an annoying glitch. At least once a day, the touch screen stops responding. Can't answer calls or anything. I have to Hold the power button for about 10 seconds and reboot. Is this happening to anyone else? or is there something I should be doing to stop this happening?
