Release Notes / Change log

Yes, rotation is a problem. If I remember rightly it is the same issue as with other custom ROMS. Try locking the screen rotation in the correct aspect then running open camera again. The app should then appear correctly.

Thank you for your tip. It works.

Woohoo!
Initial findings after a quick 15 min test:
- clean flashed (Thor) with Xposed 23; booted fine (wiped system/data/cache/dalvik)
- installed a handful of essential apps from Play Store - no compatibility issues
- installed GravityBox 6.1.6 and tested a few tweaks that tend to be problematic on some devices/roms - no issues
- big test: installed my preferred messaging app which hates everything including no-SIM devices - worked perfectly!!
Very excited on first take! Sadly, rom hangs w/dirty flash or if CM 12.1 data partition restored after initial boot. Will need to fall back temporarily until I have time to perform a manual migration of existing app portfolio. No ding against the rom; dirty flashes are always a crap shoot and I have been bringing this one forward since Jelly Bean (yikes!). I have an old Fire Nexus KitKat build I may try too. Hate rebuilding from scratch.
The only (minor) suggestion is to include recovery and soft boot options to the Advanced Power Menu. No big deal as I can easily get this from Xposed; just seems a natural as it was noted in the feature set (not normally part of AOSP). Love having GAaps Nano and SuperSU built in; avoids many initial flash headaches and simplifies upgrades.
Really nice work, @ggow. Clean and simple.
Edit: I did need to enable 'all rotations' in GravityBox as expected on this device. Likely could achieve the same result via Nova or other third party tweak. Native setting was largely ignored.

Good to hear Xposed is working and your problematic messaging app

I would expect CM 12.1 data restore to not work. The framework in this ROM is very different from CM 12.1.
You might also run into problems dirty flashing from the KitKat build of the ROM.
Clean flash would be recommended in both cases when coming from an older or different ROM.

Kids sometimes use my tablet so having the reboot to recovery options etc can be a problem.

Thanks for the detailed feedback :good:

Thank you for nexus rom.
Thank you for nexus rom.
It works almost good for me, but google contacts cannot synchronize gmail account.
In nexus5 (6.0.1), it can be synchronized by contacts->settings->accounts->google.
In thor, contacts->settings->accounts->(not shown google).

Will the install work with twrp 2.8.7 or is 3.0.2 a requirement?

FWIW - install worked fine on 3.0.0.x (3.0.2 has permission issues)

ADB Backup/Restore
May have found a bug: adb backup and restore commands are ignored. Command is accepted (Win 10 x64 host) but no response from device. Other adb commands appear to work fine. Tinkered with the various USB modes but behavior is always the same. Also tried setting/clearing device debug password. With no password there is a 3-4 sec delay before returning to command prompt; with a password exit is nearly instantaneous. Did some searching online but not a lot of good info on the net. Works on CM 12.1 build (Thor).
Anyone else experiencing this?

I had no installations problemes with TWRP 3.02.

Thanks. Two reasons for wanting this:
- transfer apps and all associated data between devices
- create targeted backups or nandroid clone on devices with limited internal storage
Titanium used to be the go-to choice but it hasn't been updated in nearly two years (struggles on Android 6+) and also utilises adb functions for transport.

FYI - I was able to get this rom to dirty boot a CM 13 build but that's as far as it went. Processor pegged on lock screen judging from heat and sluggish response (5+ sec per key press). Obviously a clean flash is highly recommended by dev but was looking for a path to bring my existing CM 12.1 build (apps and data) forward. Probably hang out on Lollipop for awhile as it meets my needs with no meaningful loss of functionality vs Marshmallow with Greenify, Nova and a few Xposed modules thrown in.
Might give Nexus 6 another whirl once adb backup/restore is working (see previous posts for background). I do miss AOSP ...
Also sad CyanogenMod can't get their act together and fix the ridiculous bug that throws up a fur ball when SIM access is requested on CM 13 if there ain't no SIM card installed (hello...tablets!!). Regression was introduced in a nightly build last March and never resolved.

Camera isn't working on apollo

@ggow Nice to see the work you're doing for the hdx. I'm just curious - before I decide to upgrade to this- are there any plans to get Bluetooth stable on this ROM or is it going to have the same issues as on other ROMs. Thanks.

I have been looking into Bluetooth as I need this working too. But with these new versions of android running with old binaries, it becomes really difficult to get everything working as it should.

Installed with 2.8.7, Apollo, with no issue!

My Apollo was on 4.5.5.1, then installed with Safestrap v4, and then Fire Nexus KK ROM. After waiting weeks for the 1-Click bootloader unlock tool, I finally decided to go for the step-by-step unlock procedure and managed to have my Apollo unlocked yesterday afternoon.
I clean flashed your TWRP 3.0.2.0 and this Fire Nexus MM ROM immediately after unlock and am really pleased with the new ROM and the newly found freedom. The ROM works quite well so far except for 1) camera (tried Snap Camera and Camera MX), 2) Google Contacts cannot sync with Gmail account.
As I came over from SafeStrap v4, is there any old files and folders need to be tidy up?

To God be the glory, my Slim7 Nougat project finally works on the Note Edge!
This is a very slimmed down version of Android Nougat, almost a "vanilla" experience with a few tasteful perks! By design, this ROM comes without root for those who wish to have a "pure" version without the entanglements that come with root, but it can also be easily rooted by using chainfire's SuperSU (see below for instructions and downloads). In it's default form, it is perfect for those banking apps, workplaces, and games that require you to have a phone without root. No need for tricks or hacks, all while having the latest and greatest Android on your Samsung Galaxy Note Edge.
If you do decide to use root, then you will be pleasently surprised to know that Substratum and layering works with this ROM. While not perfect, for the most part it functions well in my initial testing. However, if you find problems arise after installing a theme, please remove the theme to make sure it is not a substratum related issue.
**** This is an UNOFFICIAL ROM. Install at your own risk! ****
This SlimRoms Nougat ROM was built for the TBLTETMO/TBLTECAN using modified LineageOS TBLTEXX trees. I have not tried this on any other device, but you are welcome to try it AT YOUR OWN RISK. The updater script would need to be edited. Chime in if it worked on your device.
A huge thanks to the SlimRoms Project team!
Disclaimer: SlimRoms is not responsible for any damages to your device.
All of my work is completely available for any who wish to use or modify it. I didn't make SlimRoms, the device trees, or vendor blobs. I simply used and edited existing material. A huge thanks should go to those who actually created this stuff.

If you want the AKLU kernel - Better performance and battery life:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/no...droid-development/kernel-aklu-kernel-t3558419
Be sure to only choose the SLIM 7 version.
This Rom has been stable for me, however, Nougat is new, so be prepared for some little hic-ups here and there. Be sure to follow these installation steps very carefully, as they may be different then what you are used to.
!!!FIRST BOOT TAKES LONGER THAN 5 EARTH MINUTES TO COMPLETE!!!
!!!IF YOU FLASH SUPERSU, IT WILL REBOOT SEVERAL TIMES DURING INSTALL, THAT IS OKAY!!!
Installation instructions ( TO BE NON-ROOTED ) :
-YOU MUST BE ON THE 6.0.1 MODEM and BOOTLOADER!
-Download ROM, and if desired, AKLU kernel, and gapps, and put them on your phone's external storage.
-Reboot into recovery mode - TWRP (I personally installed this using 3.0.0-0).
-Backup what you had. (Just to be safe.)
-Wipe. (I personally wipe everything prior to flashing new roms, but at least do the basic wipe.)
-Install Rom.
-Install Gapps. - Optional
--> OPTIONAL - After first boot, then go back to recovery and install the AKLU kernel.

Code:
What works:
So far everything that I have tried works, such as
- Camera for video and pictures (use orange camera app, not traditional blue camera app.)
- Phone calls/receiving
- Data 2g/3g/LTE
- Bluetooth
- WiFi
- PTP/MTP
- GPS
- WiFi hotspot
- Multi-Window
- Fingerprint sensor* See notes.
etc....
What doesn't:
- Notification LED only shows RED and YELLOW. To show YELLOW, choose CYAN as the notification color, and it will show up YELLOW. All other color choices appear RED.
- The automatic time zone function forgets where you are alot. Use the manual time zone instead.
- Choosing to reboot the phone sometimes takes a loooong time. It may be better to Power off and then start the phone, which is faster for some reason.
- Built in blue camera app sometimes gets "stuck" or freezes or crashes, I tested several other camera apps, and all worked fine, including the orange camera app and opencamera from the fdroid repository.
- There is no "edge" feature at this time.
- Let me know in the forums if you find other issues.
Main Features:
- Merged with android-7.1.1_r13
- SlimDim, now with 100% more dimming
- SlimAction, Splits screen action (long press app in slim recent)
- SlimRecents, an alternative recents
- Notification log (long press statusbar header)
- Kill app from notification (long pres app notification)
- Substratum support (if rooted)
- OmniSwitcher built in so the kill function works with or without root.
- Advanced reboot (found under security settings).

Notes about the rom:
Notes about the rom:
Fingerprint sensor:
I have successfuly used the fingerprint sensor, but it is a bit sketchy. To make it work:
- Go to register your fingerprint under security settings.
- I registered all 5 of my fingertips all at once, by clicking add another, and only 2 of them "stuck" when I clicked done. I redid it registering one finger over and over again several times, and it eventually registered and stuck.
- If after clicking done, the fingerprint settings says x-number of fingerprints registered, then those fingerprints are working. Once registered, then you can use it in apps, and for the lockscreen, which did work about 1/2 of the time for me.
- If the lockscreen does not show the "fingerprint" icon, reboot to make it appear.
Open Source apps:
There are quite a few really good open source apps included in this build, such as:
Browser app
Amaze file manager app
SatStat GPS app
Camera app (orange one)
All of these great apps and more can be found at https://f-droid.org/repository/browse/. You can also download other great apps there like music players, games, and everything else you might need. The Fdroid app allows you to maintain up to date version control and simple downloading and installation of these apps and is a lightweight alternative to the Google Play Store. that is certainly worth taking a look.

Thanks for the kind words! I also use Slim as my dd on the note edge. Simply elegant. Thanks to the slim team.
I do find the led color for notifications to be an interesting problem.
When setting notifications: If I choose red, it shows up greenish. If I choose yellow, it shows up red. If I choose cyan, it shows up yellow.
But the first flash is always red.
I'll have to work on that.
Does it work with tbltexx

Other than that its top work fella.
any reason why certain applications force close? Like skype for example. Starts, loads for a brief second and force closes
Hi,
I flashed this rom on N915W8 through TWRP. All went well but no sim card was detected. I am very new to this stuff and this is my first post. I really like the rom so would like to know should I do to make it right.
Thanks.

YOU are doing modifications to your device.
YOU are responsible for what you do.
We are not responsible for any damages, data loss or any type of unexpected,
bad or damaging results! If you have SERIOUS problems with this software,
please contact the developers or maintainers. We are not liable for anything
bad that happens to your device.
As long as you are responsible, some companies such as OnePlus
WILL HONOR IT. Some people occasionally describe them as heroes.
Don't be stupid and bet on that though, please be responsible for what you do.
We prohibit you from overclocking to 1337 GHz thinking, that an OEM would
replace your glorious space heater etc.
We recommend you to take the advice above regardless.
halogenOS Checklist
Although no data should be lost or damaged by the flashing process,
we advise you to follow the following steps if you are coming from another rom:
Please take a full nandroid backup!
Please copy your back up to an external device.
Backing up your Internal Storage is also recommended.
When completed, please clean flash the build!
XOS is a new generation cutting-edge OS for Android based on Code Aurora Forum releases.
What is XOS?
halogenOS, also known as XOS is a new Android ROM which ships with the global aim to
become a modular ROM which keeps as high as potentially possible operating
performance on your mobile device while still maintaining a sufficient feature
base of nice, small and minimal features that would not be available via any
external feature base, extension, mod or plugin.
We hope you have a truly halogenified experience!
Internals of XOS
At core, the ROM is composed mainly of components from CodeAuroraForums (CAF),
featuring only extremely minor set of components from CyanogenMod (CM) which
have been added to source in order to allow for better cross-device compatibility.
Our LOVE to others
A huge thanks goes to those behind the CodeAuroraForums (CAF), the CyanogenMod
organization and all of its
contributors for the sources used in the development of the base ROM which we
started with inclusive of all the work and dedication their team puts in order to
keep us updated on the awesome contributions that they make.
We will be keen on ensuring that we be up to date with the code from our base sources,
with regular ROM updates hopefully coming from time to time.
Please do not ask for ETA's (else you shall be spooked by Mr Skeltal). Almost all of us are
students, and with the current lifestyles and routines we have, it is not that easy to acquire
time to develop the ROM, though we'll be sure to keep you updated and release OTAs as
soon as they are available and ready for publication. If you want to be really updated quick,
then join us on Telegram: http://telegram.me/halogenos
Visit our website for features such as: Downloads, Information etc.

(Not finished yet)
​
Common stuff
The ROM is super stable as of now and we'll maintain a clean and proper ROM.
Known issues are going to be fixed as soon as possible. We don't have infinite time.
Highlights :
Substratum
Full media support (FFMPEG, video codecs, ...)
Great Audio quality, no distortions, no crap
Optimized many portions of the system including surfaceflinger, inputflinger, System Server, and more
Super fast boot
Superuser-capable
Great battery life
Soundmod support (not all soundmods work on Nougat, it's not our fault)
addon.d support (backups your gapps etc. when flashing new build - don't wipe system before flashing!)
init.d support
BusyBox
Disabled Access Time for all partitions (We don't need access time. When access time is enabled, it will store the exact date of the access when a file is accessed, what just wastes write cycles (in theory) and has impact in I/O performance.)
Super smooth
Signature Spoofing toggle (Support for MicroG)
Support for trusted third-party WebViews like Chrome
Long press on home for assist toggle
Security Patches in kernel
OpenGapps (Mini/Micro/Nano recommended) and Banks GApps support
Full KeyHandler & KeyDisabler support
Dexpreopt for faster (first) boot time and less space consumption on data partition
Upgrade & Boot the ROM in just 5 minutes - no more endless waiting for flashing a new build
Very high compatibility with other ROMs
How to update the ROM:
Download the latest zip
Reboot into TWRP (Please use official TWRP)
Do not wipe anything
Flash the ROM
Flash SuperSU 2.79 or newer if you want (Download 2.82 here)
or
Flash Magisk v13.1 if you want from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445
Reboot
You don't need to wipe Cache/Dalvik.
You don't need to flash gapps again. There is some magic going on which keeps your GApps. Just make sure that you don't wipe system before flashing.
You don't need more than 5 minutes.
How to install the ROM for the first time:
Download the latest zip
Reboot into TWRP (Please use official TWRP)
Wipe system, data and cache (If you want to try a dirty flash, dont wipe anything)
Flash the ROM
Flash gapps if you want
Flash SuperSU 2.79 or newer if you want (Download 2.82 here)
or
Flash Magisk v13.1 if you want from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445

I should mention that you'll have no nav bar when you first boot. You'll have to go into settings and enable it. So don't freak out when you get stuck in an app, just go into settings from quick settings. I'll try to enable it and upload a new build asap.

I was stuck in the initial configuration because I did not have a lower navigation bar, I restarted the power button for a long time and I started the bootloop. I tried twice to blink the rom and I could not get out of bootloop. Waiting for new construction .... thanks, nonetheless. good job.

That's strange. I flashed a few builds and didn't have that problem. I'll see what I can do.
I'm running a new build now, the nav bar should be activated on first boot. If so, I'll post it shortly.

Great job
My steps
All wipe
Flash ROM
Flash gapps
Flash supersu
Reboot
Init and freezing then reboot and bootloop
Reflash only ROM and gapps
Run
This ROM is fantástic
Just an observation, try to install it from the official twrp 3.1.1 and after doing the backup I was unable to access the recovery. Nor restarting in recovery mode even from the fastboot. I had to put back the squid twrp through adb ...
Sorry my bad english

Thanks man rom works perfectly ! No issues on first boot!
Has anyone else noticed a bluetooth connection failure?
Connecting to my smart clock turns off in seconds.
I regret not being able to attach the log, but due to bootloop problems when installing supersu I do not have it rooted.

I forgot to mention some Bluetooth issues, but I haven't had any trouble staying connected to anything. I thought the only problem was inbound file transfer. I'm working on it. I've been using Magisk without any issues by the way.
After installing magiks v12 I play the connection to my smartwatch and the same problem is disconnected in seconds

I think you misunderstood. I didn't mean installing Magisk would fix your Bluetooth problem. You can take a log now though right? I don't have a smartwatch and I haven't had problems staying connected to devices I have so a log may be helpful.

There is an updated SuperSU I see. https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/supersu/stable-2016-09-01supersu-v2-78-release-t3452703
I haven't tested it yet though.
New build is up. Bluetooth should be all fixed now. @ENRIQUEMM I don't have a smart watch to test with if you want to try again and let me know if your problem is fixed.
Hi. You guys work hard I know it. I couldn't get past the get started screen no matter what I tried.

Sometimes old Gapps or a bad data connection can make the setupwizard hang. If you weren't using up to date Gapps try updating them. I'f that doesn't work. Try selecting not using any data or WiFi connection on setup. It worked fine for me with 6-17 Open Gapps before I uploaded the build.

PixelExperience Plus for ASUS Nexus 7 2013 [Flo/Deb]
What is this?
Pixel Experience is an AOSP based ROM, with Google apps included and all Pixel goodies (launcher, wallpapers, icons, fonts, bootanimation)
Our mission is to offer the maximum possible stability and security, along with essential features for the proper functioning of the device
Based on Android 9.0 PIE
DON'T FLASH GAPPS, ALREADY INCLUDED IN ROM!​
Installation:
1. Download the ROM and Magisk from the links below.
2. Wipe everything except internal storage.
3. Reboot recovery you will have no OS installed but that's ok i promise your device will boot back into recovery.
4. Flash the ROM and DO NOT flash GApps as it is already included!
5. Flash Latest Magisk to get root access.
6. Reboot and Enjoy!
Known issues:
- You will be required to repartition your device to at least 1.3gb. If you have anything higher or exact than 1.3gb than your fine.
- Navigation bar glitches sometimes.
- Deep Sleep does not work when NFC is enabled so i recommend you disable it when your not using it to get your tablet to go in deep sleep.
- When you boot up the ROM for the first time you may notice that the boot animation will freeze and then your device reboots back to the google logo. This is not a device side issue but a ROM side issue but let the tablet reboot a couple times if necessary & your tablet will eventually boot to the setup wizard and into the ROM. This is normal.
- Use Latest Official TWRP recovery below for Flo which is version 3.3.1.0 and you won't have the install supersu thing when you reboot recovery.
- You tell us!

Thanks dude, I have a LTE version, will you help to release Q for DEB as well? Thanks.
Reserved for future use
one more just in case
Thanks very much for making time to maintain this.
May I ask which blobs are used for this build? If Im reading it correctly, it's the same ones that @followmsi has switched to rather than the previous QC ones?
I'll definitely install this and give feedback but am of the current belief that the previous blobs provided much better performance,(on deb at least), than the ones used in the other most recent build.
Hadn't mentioned it yet as was still trying to pinpoint why it feels less responsive. Not sure if it's GPU or disk IO or even CPU because the numbers all look fine but the device feels noticeably less responsive when playing something taxing like PoGo.
Edit: just saw the blobs link.

I am using followmsi's latest pixel and pie aosp sources which includes fixes for hardware decoding and compass. I don't have any slow downs when i tested the build however i wouldn't know how to even fix it if there were slow downs because i am just building using his sources. There is nothing changed or added besides those sources. You can expect a new build from me every month with new security patches because i am currently the one mantaining pixel experience
Cheers and have a good day

Issues
Latest build (05/02) borked all the sensors (gyroscope, compass, accelerometer). After dirty flashing it over an earlier build they all stopped working.
Had to go back to stock 6.0.1 and it's all ok now. 6.0.1 feels like a rocket by the way. I don't know about your experience with these pie roms, but for me it's been high battery drain (especially when watching youtube) and overall intermittent choppiness.

The only thing that shouldn't be working is compass and I will hopefully fix it in the next build but gyroscope and accelerometer is working for me on my flo with no problems however I can't say this for deb as I don't have that device to test. But I would do a clean flash wipe everything except internal storage and try flashing the ROM again. Also remember to not flash gapps as its already included

Actually I saw the same thing when dirty flashing to the changed blobs build from the other thread.
An additional restart was required to get them working.
Haven't had a chance to try this build, (deb), yet but it's likely the same.

You can fix deep sleep by flashing this zip I provided and I tested it and now my tablet goes into deep sleep. This zip add-on works for all pie ROMs except unlegacy because its already included. Huge thanks to @followmsi for providing the fix
Download here and flash in recovery:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=1395089523397959956
Tested deb for a few days, ( with the patch linked above), and it's pretty good.
Dirty flashed, wiped cache and dalvik, installed ElementalX kernel and then the deep sleep patch.
My early concerns regarding the changed blobs and performance were unfounded. Everything appears to work and the rom runs smoothly.
Did experience an issue with sensors no longer responding after a couple of days and although easily resolved with a reboot, I rolled back to an earlier PE build to avoid a repeat.
Looking forward to trying any further builds though. Hopefully will have time to troubleshoot, or at least a grab a useful log next time.

Ok no probs will have a look at the update script.
I've given this rom a try, and I am also receiving an error 7 from twrp-3.3.0-0-flo
Code:
BLKDISCARD ioctl failed: Invalid argument

new data receiver is still available after executing all commands.

E1001: Failed to update system image.error: 1001
Updater process ended with ERROR: 7
This device must be re-partitioned before installing this rom
Otherwise works just like it was stated on the original post.

which Kernel did you use ? tried both 6 and 7 EX - soft brick
Custom setting
@JT Your Havoc ROM has custom status bar settings, etc., but it seems that this ROM doesn't. Why?

Because havoc is more customizable and feature filled compared to pixel experience. Pixel experience is meant to give you the same experience as if you were to use and buy the google pixel phones its the same ROM basically as what the pixel has. There's nothing I can do about this pixel experience is meant to be more of a stock bare minimal experience rom compared to havoc which is more feature filled and customizable.

Apologies man.
Sometimes I completely forget that not everyone here is up to date with development for our devices.
I should've made clear that kernel build is by @followmsi and found in his online file repository.

To God be the glory, a working AOSP ROM for those on both the 50.1 and the 50.2 firmware, Pie flavored! There may still be a few bugs here and there, please read this entire post before using!
**** This is an UNOFFICIAL ROM. Install at your own risk! ****
WARNING: This build SHOULD work on both the H3213 and H3223, but I could only test on a H3223.
Disclaimer: I am not responsible for any damages to your device.
A huge thanks to the Android Open Source Project and Sony Open Devices Project!​
The Sony Open Devices Project (SODP) is an initiative to build Android for phones while being as vendor binary large object (blob) free as possible. There are still a few vendor blobs used in this project, but the goal is to one day be vendor blob free. I don't know if that will ever fully happen, but it is nice to move in that direction. That said, all of my work is completely available for any who wish to use or modify it. I didn't make AOSP, the device trees, or vendor blobs. I simply used and edited existing material. A huge thanks should go to those who actually created this stuff.
This Unofficial AOSP ROM was built for the H3223 (discovery), but may work on some of the other variants, please try at your own risk. However, if you do try it on another variant, please be sure to let me know in the comments how well it worked.
Downloads:
Rom Download link:
Note: This is designed to work with any firmware version of the XA2 Ultra, because you flash a custom OEM partition. I've tested this on 50.1 and 50.2 firmware phones.
http://www.mediafire.com/folder/dl8dcra6ojog5/Sony Open Device Project
IF there is an ENG build, it is marked "ENG" for testing purposes only. It's your phone, you can install anything you want, but I do not recommend installing the ENG build. Use the "USER" or "USERDEBUG" builds.
There are two versions of the project, a vanilla AOSP without Google Apps, and a vanilla AOSP with Google Apps. I have tested both on my phone. If you want Google Apps, you cannot use the gappless version and then flash gapps, it doesn't work, you must use the gapps version if you want Google's apps.
Installation instructions: (DIFFERENT THAN NORMAL! DONE THROUGH FASTBOOT!)
- Download the zip file for AOSP 9.
- Unzip the zip file, and you will find 5 images.
- If using Windows, put these in your folder you use for fastboot, if using Linux, you can do this from any folder.
- Reboot the phone into bootloader/fastboot mode.
- Flash them to your phone, like so (example for Linux)
Code:
$ fastboot flash boot ./boot.img
$ fastboot flash oem ./oem.img
$ fastboot flash system ./system.img
$ fastboot flash userdata ./userdata.img
$ fastboot flash vendor ./vendor.img
$ fastboot reboot
Your phone will now boot into AOSP Pie!
If you plan to install magisk, then let the rom boot once, then go back to TWRP and flash magisk. I recommend making a backup of at least the boot partition first. Magisk is optional, of course. And you do so at your own risk!
What works:
Code:
So far these things that I have tried work, such as
- Display/touch
- Camera (front and back) for pictures and video!
- Phone calls
- Data 3g/LTE
- Bluetooth
- WiFi
- Sound in system, in calls, over bluetooth devices
- MicroSD card (external SD card).
- GPS
- Fingerprint sensor
- Camera Button launches camera and takes photos
- MTP file transfer
etc....
What doesn't:
Code:
Gappless version:
- FM Radio does not work
- The built in Gallery app cannot play back recorded videos from camera. VLC or other apps work fine though.
- Nothing else that I know of, but let me know if you find something!
Gapps version:
- FM Radio does not work
- The built in Gallery cannot play back recorded videos from camera. VLC or other apps work fine though.
--But the Google Photos app can.
-The built in Google Camera app does not work, however, Open Camera, or other camera apps do.
- Nothing else that I know of, but let me know if you find something!

Changelog:

- Fixed camera turning green or crashing
- Fixed general stability.
20191003
- First build, a bit unstable.
- Camera turns green.
- PTP, MTP cause crashes.
- FM Radio does not work.
Notes:
This ROM is very, very, vanilla. It is straight up AOSP. No frills, no mods, no extras. Just pure source.
I personally don't use Gapps anymore, but I did test that the gapps version boots up and connects. That's about all I test with Gapps, though.
I also don't use social media except XDA, so I don't know how well every app works. But if you have issues and have logs, perhaps I can look at them and see what is wrong.
Can I flash back to firmware 50.x.xxxx after flashing this?
Yes, you can. I flashed this and then flashed back to the 50.2 firmware several times while testing. As always, you assume full responsibility for your device, but it worked for me.
Issues/workarounds:
- Video playback from camera. Any camera videos you record work fine, but the built in player can't play them. I downloaded and used VLC app to play them and they work just fine. You can get VLC or other apps from the play store, or here: https://www.f-droid.org/en/packages/org.videolan.vlc/, or if you are using the Gapps included version, you can use Google Photo.
- If you are using the Gapps included variant, the built in Google Camera app does not work. However, using the playstore, I downloaded a number of camera apps, such as Open Camera, and they all worked. I'll try to look into it if I get time.
The only thing i didnt like about aosp is that you cant add features like gravitybox does. And Unfortunatly I need snapchat cause my woman uses it. lol Breaks the safety Net

I installed AOSP, let it boot, downloaded 64 bit nano opengapps, fastbooted into TWRP, flashed the gapps via adb sideload, and rebooted. It didn't crash or hang up on me. However, I've noticed that it doesn't install the playstore app. I'm very confused. I tried this several times with pico, nano, micro, and mindthegapps.

Thank you for looking into it? but yeah same I'm very confused as well but I believe I have found something that I'm not at all familiar with. I found this link that has someone that has a similar issue with the responder saying they can use "adb pull" command to flash Google factory images so it might be worth looking into?

Whoo-hoo! Praise God! Good traction on Android 10! After some tinkering with XOSD source, I've got a booting version of Android 10 with the new 4.14 kernel! Certainly not a daily driver by any means yet, but I'll keep tinkering. I'll add a few teaser shots as well. :victory:

Hell yeah man. Thank God we still got one developer on the xa2 ultra threads.
So I've messed with aosp a bit and have found a way to help make things easier. I've installed nanodroid which will give you micro g and it's service and more!
https://nanolx.org/nanolx/nanodroid
I haven't been able to figure it out but it has a setup wizard as well which does give you the option to install the official play store. If any one else can't get that to work then perhaps install osm(gapps) with fdroid and install the "fakegapps" xposed module to get signiture spoofing. Hope this helps?

Great work, and good find!
I am currently building this ROM again with built in gapps ... Hopefully, I can have that and an updated version of aosp that is gappless available tomorrow or the next day (so I can test it a bit). I spoke with a few guys on the SODP telegram channel, and they make aosp with gapps built in, so I thought I'd try that to see if that helps you guys who want to use this ROM with gapps.
Good news!
I was able to build AOSP 9 with Gapps built in, and will be posing that once I get it uploaded. (It will take a long time, because I have slow internet.) I'm testing it out on my phone now, everything seems to work here. I will also be posting an update of the gappless version as well.
Thank you so much! I have been waiting for this but when do you think it will be available?

Good news! It is up and posted. Be sure to fully read Post #1, and Post #2 before proceeding.
I tested both the gapps included, and the non-gapps versions on my phone, both worked. With the Gapps version I was able to connect and download several apps, my emails synced, as did photos, etc....
For this rom, the things that I am actively working on are MTP/PTP computer connections.
Also, Android 10 is still in the works, it's just giving me a few fits at the moment, but I will keep working on it. I don't want to release a "half baked" rom, I would like it to be 95%+ functional before putting it up for you to use. Hopefully, that will not take forever. :fingers-crossed:
Love it I did notice the ctsintegrity was false but I fixed it with a magisk module other than that it's great!? I understand from your last post you are working on Android 10 but any idea on when your roms will be updated to 5.0.2 version?
Great news! Praise God! With some great guidance from @MartinX3, and a post by @oshmoun, I was able to apply a patch to the kernel that fixed MTP communications for transferring files to your PC! I have the builds now, and will upload them. My internet is really slow, so it will take a while....

ROM OS Version: Android 10
ROM Kernel: Linux 3.x
Based On: AOSP
Version Information
Status: Nightly

My feedback about CR8.0 (weekly build 20200513-0206) with gapps pico, magisk 20.4 and ~75 user apps.
Using TWRP 3.3.1-z3c-20191212-sar from here
Xposed (RiRu 20.2 from magisk repo, EdXposed-YAHFA-v0.4.6.2.4529 from here) works without problems (1st screenshot).
I'm not using internal data encryption because of compatibility problems between ROMs/versions, tired to restore backups each time I flash new ROM.
About 700MB of RAM free just after boot, with stock launcher.
Battery drain fast, but my battery is very old, no complain.
Pros:
+ reliably fast
+ everything works including GPS, BT, calls/data, hotspot and all my apps
+ no problems with audio routing and mic sensitivity
+ camera is ok but I use OpenCamera anyway
Cons/bugs:
- still no 5ghz wifi in Russia (I use my magisk-patch to fix this, may also help with other regions, try if you meet this bug)
- ongoing call can be hanged accidentally by double-tap in any place of turned off display (e.g. by cheek) if tap-to-wake feature is active (here is my workaround using Automate tool, works like a charm). I'm not sure if this bug belongs only to my phone or to any z3c, but it was like forever on any AOSP-based ROM, starting with Android 7.
- broken size for "Aeroplane mode" button/icon in power menu (see 2nd screenshot)
- ringtone sound become a bit quieter after half a second from start of incoming call
- overall loudspeakers volume is not loud enough
Features I'd like to have in this ROM:
1) choose clock position in statusbar (only at left in CR8.0)
2) brightness control by sliding in statusbar without opening it
3) mess up digits on the PIN unlock screen [Carbone Fibers > Buttons > Scramble PIN]
4) unlock instantly when entering last digit without confirmation
5) long press power button to turn on/off torch while display turned off [Carbone Fibers > Buttons > Toggle torch]
6) restrict/disable power menu while phone locked
7) disable notification panel while phone locked
8) set minimal time between notifications on per app basis
9) wake by volume rocker buttons
10) increasing ringing volume
11) debugging over network (settings in devs options, absent in CR)
Most of this stuff available in LOS and AEX roms, but also all (except: 7,10,11, with bugs: 6) can be achieved in CR by using GravityBox xposed module.
Thank you @Myself5 for continue work with our lovely z3c.
Thank you very much for supporting our cute device
Did anyone tried edxposed with xprivacylua, Viper4android, Netflix. Do they work?
Found a BUG: can't set PIN/pattern to lock screen, getting bootloop after try to set it and reboot.
I use z3c as my daily driver, so I need screen lock, can't use this ROM until fixed. Hope I'm not only one who faces this bug.

Not sure about these apps, but at least GravityBox[Q] and App Locale 2 I can NOT get working on this ROM with EdXposed v0.4.6.0_beta(4471) (YAHFA). As well as on latest february build of LOS 17.1 (but worked fine on january build). May be I should try some newer versions of EdXposed (like ones from "canary" repo or something), but I need screenlock bug fixed first to use this ROM and more of free time. Btw, everything works perfect on LOS16.

Wiped all except micro sd. Stuck at "Setup wizard keeps stopping", system unusable. With and without gapps.
Ok I just clean-reinstalled ROM and made first boot WITHOUT SIM CARD INSERTED and it's boot fine. Btw my SIM card PIN-locked (if it's important) and it never caused any problems in LOS17.
Also I reserve this post for my review.
Thank you @Myself5 for continue work with our lovely z3c.

The Setup Wizard is still work in progress, and we just discovered nobody tested it with a SIM so far. We'll take care of it, thanks.
As for your screen lock issue in the other message: are you encrypted by any chance? Also I assume that's not happening on the lineage17.1 builds you mentioned?

Tried with and without encryption. With and without Gapps. With and without SIM card. Always same result. Everytrhing fine until you set screen lock PIN either from Setup Wizard or from Security settings. First of, unlock method stays "Swipe" after set PIN. And if you reboot, system's boot to desktop and auto-soft-reboot (without sony logo) after few seconds. And yes, this not happening on LOS17.1
Installation immediately fails for me.

Tried to update from your previous CR7 build (CARBON-CR-7.0-OPAL-UNOFFICIAL-z3c-20190819-2110), using TWRP 3.2.1 from here. Nothing actually got written, so previous installation is fine.

Try 3.3.1 from here, it support Android 10 with "system as root". And I'd recommend wipe all except internal storage and perform clean install.

Doesn't work for me, just blackscreens and reboots. Tried installing it both via TWRP app and fastboot (although strangely enough, even though adb worked, fastboot didn't in Windows, had to boot to Linux), no dice, so went back to my previous TWRP for now.
Would be nice to know what's up with that, but I haven't fiddled with any of this in a long time. Ever since CarbonROM appeared, my Z3C pretty much "just worked" and I never had to do much of any fiddling.
New build uploaded just now has the SetupWizard fixed. The lockscreen bug is getting looked into right now.
Uploaded a new build. Contains some additional lockscreen clocks but more importantly, the PIN issue is fixed.

I can confirm this. Also Google' Setup Wizard passed fine with SIM. Thank you!
What is bother me - the Carbon Fibers menu - as I recall, it usually have much more settings than I can see in this build (see screenshots). This is only to me or some global restriction?
Also camera app not working, this is odd. Though I didn't try it on fresh system (before google's backup restore). Someone please check.

the camera was not working for me as well, but after some restarts it fixed itself. i dont know how that happened (even tried the xperia camera port from magisc) but i cannot confirm weather that did the trick..

You could try if the camera starts working after deleting the folder /data/credmgr with a root file explorer and then rebooting. By doing this, the credmgr folder with the credmanager files are rebuilt by the system, which can help fixing camera issues.

Thanks for the tip mate. But it didn't help in this case.
Btw, today I installed (again) latest LOS17, tuned it, rebooted many times, played with microG/magisk/xposed modules - camera worked fine all the time.
Next (steps to reproduce): wiped cache, dalvik, data and system, installed only CR-8.0 (20200225), rebooted to system, skip anything, camera WORKS! Did nothing, just rebooted again, and got "Can't connect to the camera"! I think this is a BUG and hope I'm not the only one who faces it.
I still have a question about Carbon Fibers menu, why it lack items/options? I can't even reposition statusbar clock to right without using "third-party" apps like GravityBox xposed module.
Also, kind of "feature request": time to time I use adb from PC (we all do i think), and I hate to connect cable to micro-USB port, cuz it's weak and can break soon if use freqently. I use magnetic port/cable for charging and "ADB over network" toggle in Developer Options for ADB operations. One of the reasons why I prefer LOS is because of this "must have" thing, they even have tile in QS for toggle it quickly! Can it be added to CR?
the "cant connect to the camera" returned unexpectedly..
Hum this new OP looks interesting.
And what is this Twitter Post?
And did someone say May Security Patches?
Thank you for your hard work!
Does encryption work properly?
What works
Viper4android works
Sony Device Dummy works with official Sony apps

Great, this looks interesting indeed!
Today cr-8.0 also was offered as an OTA update on my Z3c which so far I still have on cr-6.1 (because everything is working well and rock stable on this older version and thankfully you still release monthly security patches for it.)
Have you done some thorough testing of cr-8.0 on the Z3/Z3c devices before making it now official and is everything working (e.g. full camera support and proper in-call audio, which had problems on shinano devices on Android 9 and 10 before)?
If so, I might give it a try this weekend.
Thank you and keep up the great work! :good:

I tried dirty-flash on my cr-6.1, but without success - I can't boot my phone because it stuck in boot animation.
