Tested on : cosmic os , RR and LOS.

What's different here than official twrp and arsenic r32?

 

[CheckYourScreen]

There's no point of releasing a new one unless it has some more fixes.
Fyi I'm already working on twrp, aroma is almost fixed, only some graphical glitches are remaining(which doesnt appear in screenshots), will release as soon as its fixed.

It actually works on the new revision of the oneplus X.
Alot of people had trouble getting a working twrp to flash a custom rom on a E1003_15 oneplus X . Since almost no roms came with a kernel that supported the E1003_15 , i figured i'd patch arsenic's kernel since it supports both AOSP/CM roms.

This is by no means a replacement for any official release and merely a temporary solution until everything gets released officially.

It only has the fix for the e1003_15 devices. It's merely a temporary solution and i do suggest people use the official Twrp/Arsenic kernel once it's released.

Ps: Nice to see aroma installer will be available to us soon. Any repo where i can find these changes? I don't mind testing it

This version is for the newer oneplus x devices. Currently the official version doesn't support them yet.

@ChzeRub, Is it possible for this patched TWRP version to mount USB-OTG so that I can install Arsenic kernel from there.
I only copied RR Rom and gapps to internal storage, flashed them, flash boot.img, now I am stuck in RR booting animation.
Tried to push kernel from ADB with no result. Device not found error.
Or could you make the boot.img version of arsenic, so at least my opx pass RR booting animation.

You can boot into recovery , connect it to your computer and copy the files onto the sdcard.
