As a non-tester are Oreo ROM's worth the bugs? - Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

After trying the LineageOS latest alpha 15 I found that the new features are not really worth the hassle of making things work. I just tried the new action launcher on LineageOS 14.1 and basically the only thing I can see that is missing is the very limited picture in picture.
What do you think?

You see one thing...Oreo is not a big update....only u can say it is an improved version of nougat...remember the marshmallow one...it is not a huge update from lollipop---just doze mode improved ,some visual changes happened bla bla bla....same thing happens with Oreo...settings menu visually changed,u can now officially use substratum theme engine,battery settings is new,doze is improved,autofill api added etc..you see these are not big changes,but it enriches the user experience for sure...that's all...maybe u get a much improved battery life,maybe your notification reading experience changes a little bit..that's the fact...
So my advice is as u are not a tester just stick with nougat(aex has given a fantastic nougat support throughout its journey)...once Oreo stable is released try it..

I am proud to present to you BeanStalk Builds put together by myself. This is a build composed off of the CM builds and i have added alot of features on top of it. So you get speed, stability, and ultra customization ability. Many of the additional code additions came from slim ROM and also Derteufels build and have been modified to work with my current setup. A huge thanks to Derteufel and the Slim ROM guys for their work and dedication. Also a big thanks to everyone involved with CM as that is the building stone in this project. Thanks to skyliner33v for the bootanimation and upcoming wallpapers!
I plan on updating this and adding features on a pretty regular basis, so if you happen to like this, keep checking back.

Yeah, I've been seeing gradual decreasing support for MDPI devices. Hopefully I'd be adding back most of the 'resized' drawables (which would fix any FC's that you might face), but till then, please stay put (or gimme a hand in resizing them drawables )
Also, I've fixed up two lines in BoardConfig.mk (thanks to galaxyfreak), which might have been causing the "Can't connect to camera" error randomly.
And, reverted back two commits in kernel disabling lpa audio. in case lpa audio was causing the call issue
Anyways, this is a discussion thread. Please feel free to report such issues.
Rom & gapps can be on nand? I don't wanna use any script on startup. I just use mount2sd & move App+dalvikvm but not the data of the apps for speed purposes.
Btw I'm once again hoping great work from your side. :good:

same opinion with u。Number is not so important in roms as a fixed quality rom.
wish author's work become better and better.

I agree with yu both... Bt these bugs may take a lot of time to solve...
And users can try different roms instead asking ETAs and all and each have its own features... Am not opposing anyone... Just telling what i feel.. :thumbup:
And gud luck bro... Love your work bro.. . Pico now got a lot 4.4 roms..

I remember my first work, around 7 months ago, which I released on XDA (before that I was just working on some random tools, scripts and stuff, making custom themed CM ROMs, naming them "Zeta ROM" etc), which was Cyanic Sense. Before that I had my first experience "making" a kernel. It took 40 minutes on my pre-pentium 4 processor. I remember Rishik999 who I worked with. I remember releasing a flashable zip for the Stock ROM v1.43.720.2 with the combined efforts of me, rishik and racerroney, with help from explorerman.
Back to cyanic sense, Though it was just theming, it was difficult, for I didn't know where to start. I quit that, because of two reasons.
1. stock, was buggy, and slow.
2. there wasn't any "real" developing that I was doing.
2.5. I had got a new computer, so, no longer did I have to wait for ~40 minutes to get a kernel compiled.
Now, looking back to about two months ago. The end of october. Cyanogenmod ICS was the first ROM that I compiled, just to test the specs of my pc, build times, etc. Still, I was making builds at the rate of a build per hour and half, or so. Looked at MiniCM, there was great potential in there, for it. I was starting to learn things.
MiniCM was THE greatest project (IMO, until now) ever that I worked on, that I can be proud of (till this day), just because I did it, and It was my first work. No matter, I decided to "stabilize" the ICS ROM with k3.0.101. I remember that day, when @rcane had released a flashable s2w zip update for it on the thread. I flashed it, didn't work. Decided to make it work, and voila! That was the first build, with very few changelog.
First, started out with cherry-picking, (too many of them), most useful ones had been abandoned by them cm-gerrit, just because ICS was outdated. decided to create repos, and implement some real useful features into ICS, making it "rock stable", and stuff as you'd say it. User suggestions started flowing in (those who did care for ICS). Had a hard time keeping up with all the features that the users requested (not many, as only a few used ICS). I wasn't able to fix up all their requests, but still... Anyways, I was still learning. Collaborated with Umair (omerjerk), and went on to add toggles and stuff... Finally, went on to create CodyROM, (with some more great collab, with Vaibhav (#Superuser), and Dhruman (dhrumangajjar)) just because of two things:
1. It was over with the MiniCM brand name, as it limited my functionality.
2. Users really didn't think any different of MiniCM, and i was just the guy, providing builds, and they neither do that now, either.
I also did a few builds of cm10, cm10.2, but never really released them. just because there wasn't anything that I added or so :\
Did anyone bother? Nope. Except the ones who used ICS? Nope. Did I bother? Nope. Because I knew I was outdated, and Kitkat had released too, so none really bothered. Did I care? No. Because I was learning. That project gave me both the headstart and confidence, experience and a little knowledge about the android build system.
Without it, I wouldn't be what I am today.
Finally, went from "I" to "we". Then, there was quite a some pressure from "people" regarding, "ICS is outdated", "move on", and so on...
So, decided to work on my first kitkat ROM, Omni. Thanks to the experience that I gained from MiniCM, and CodyROM, I was able to get it booted at first attempt (using the really outdated device tree at picokat) (the tree's still the same way).
Ok, so Kitkat booted. Problems: audio not routing. RIL didn't work. black screen in browser. dang outdated, because pico was using ION. and mainly: incompatibility of sources. AOSP doesn't simply make sources compatible. Even now, for CM, we use a hacked display-legacy, media-legacy, and frameworks/av. hoepfully, there were certain commits in the gerrit of omni, that helped me along the way. I'd like to thank sachin thomas for helping me get ION booted in pico, and cute_prince for enabling ION in the pico kernel. This fixed some of the issues. Also, few others like Nihar, and galaxyfreak helped, and RIL, camera working. That was Omni, for Pico. That was the ever first release of TeamCody, in kitkat.
At this point, i'd take a timeout to say how the ROMs itself are made:
First they add the features (keeping in mind to add compatibility later)
ROMs are compatible for nexus, voila! great! bravo!
And, at some point of time, it slips out of their mind that they have to add compatibility too.
One common example of it would be missing drawables. When adding new featues, mostly these are tested in XHDPI devices, like the Nexus? So, another problem faced: I really wouldn't know what's missing, until I boot the ROM, and get hell lot of FC's.
Meanwhile, ROMs were releasing in the Development section. Ported ROMs. I was never with the idea of ported ROMs, because I have a blind belief that ROMs built for the device would be stabler, and bugs can be more easily fixed that way. (not that I don't use ported ROMs. I do use them, in cases inevitable, or when I don't be able to build them from source)
So, decided to make them ROMs, so that I could fix bugs, along the way, thus helping the community back, and in the course, learning more. If you'd have seen, Carbon, AOSPA, Beanstalk, AOKP was already ported. I'd done only Evervolv, and Omni.
AOKP was a request by Amal, who said that he couldn't get AOKP booted with ION by porting... Evervolv, I did it for the legacy support (they're teh best at that). Beanstalk, I had a strong feeling to get this one done. because of the customizations available. Carbon, had to be done, because its another great ROM. Omni, was my wish to do.
Now, there's one thing that *most* of the custom ROMs lack today. Legacy support. I decided to use AOSPA-legacy repos, just because one can't build from the official AOSPA repos for older hardware. its built FOR nexus. Carbon, NVM, had a tough time cherry-picking commits. AOKP, was equally difficult. Omni, please. They said that legacy support would be their prime aim. now, all that vanished into thin air.
On the other hand, Cyanogenmod, says you. Great! Functionality at its best! Reason: solid legacy support! legacy support at its best. ALL phones are likely supported. You just need to hack device specific repos that are hardware oriented like media-legacy, display-legacy, and frameworks/av to get it working. Its easy to just sync the cm repos, and make fully booting, working ROMs, "without any bugs", as you say.
But, that's not the case with all other ROMs, both cm-derived and otherwise.
It takes time to find, merge support for legacy devices like ours.
It takes time to find missing drawables.
It takes time to hash out all changes that are "device specific" breaking builds, or so.
It takes time for me to build kitkat. 3 hours, for the first compile, with ccache, and a hour and half the next time. Not to mention, 3 hours, if the build doesn't break. and the build doesn't boot? then, derp around with frameworks, and hardware repos a bit more to find why it doesn't work, and how to get it working.
I don't have a build server that churns out builds every half an hour, so that I can test it, rebuild with fixes.
Beanstalk's frameworks/av was almost not synced with CM's for the past few days.
Also, Beanstalk had missing drawables, as said earlier, just like Carbon did. Sorry, if it seems like I'm repeating stuff.
And yes, users seem to be very very biased to names, ROms, and otherwise.
Cyanogenmod, yes. A build by a "recognized person", yes. I remember joilaroi, the person who was responsible to making a very stable cm-10.2, was first recieved with "doubt" when he said that he'd fixed them bugs.
Ok, this post's gone too far. Spoke too much.
I ain't saying that I am a great developer or anything. The real great people are the poeple who work on the ROMs, and its features. I am still learning stuff. just that it's taking too much of a toll on me, my health, and my academic life.
I've still got a lot to learn, and won't be *not* doing it, just because people say so.
Finally, I quote scott again.
I am doing this for fun. It is my CHOICE to share my work with everyone. If you decide that you do not like my work, good for you.. Move on and flash something else. I will not tolerate ungrateful people in my thread.

Don't like what I said? Go on, report this post. Report me. Just to let you know, that I don't give a damn.
so long the post。Thnak u 4 your efforts first,and then your work。
some people ask for the roms to be fixed mainly because they like it,with eager。
they can ask for the work,but cannnot ask u to do the work。
if tired,just take a break。
it is really a outdate device,but it has to be the goood one with the effort of “the android masters” 。
it is a miracle itself just for the Roms。Thanks for all people who work hard on it。

Call audio Bug fix
Download patch_callaudio.zip from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=49483706&postcount=23
This should fix the "user at other end not able to hear your voice properly" bug
If it doesn't work, reboot once?
p.s. This *should* be flashable on all of my kitkat ROMs, but I need testers for them all.
Hey @thewisenerd these are some bugs I faced in this rom
1. Okay frankly speaking the ROM is damn laggy I know cuz of many customization options.
2. Video recording not working ( I didn't use the cam fix cuz u said it deteriorate the image quality )
3. When playing the video in hw mode the video controls disappear but video plays fine and in sw mode everything is good
4. Sometimes the Google play music doesn't play music after reboot but other music players work just fine
5. Screen recording gives reboot
Other than this the rom good for those who love customizations but can do with a lag
I hope you update this rom soon

1. idk why or how, but might be due to its laarge size and many many features
2. dunno why
3. upstream derp
4. idk... apollo's working fine
5. screen recording ain't completely supported for our phone yet.
6. see below:
Beta 2:
Changelog:
upstream changes
fixed apollo
fixed in call audio
fixed games
fixed memtrack spam in logcat
fixed some other randome shiz (see, i don't really remember all of it now )
bugs:
video recording doesn't work (lemme first find a way to get logs first)
see, the motive of this forum si that people report bugs, and there's interaction. this is a forum. not a place where one just keeps talking to themselves. if ain't gonna get bug reports/logs, that bug is probably not going to be fixed. also, know about the kind of bug. if its an upstream bug, probably just wait for them to fix the bug.
notable upstream changes:
multiwindow, anyone? (though ain't much useful on a 3.2" screen, helsp to show off )

Slimmer the ROM, somehow, and flash GApps :cyclops:
It already has a Sweep2Wake kernel (?).
Yes, you may. But I ain't responsible for anything that happens.

almost zero bugs trying hard to concentrate on performance with out compromising battery
my opinion: keep the rom updated with the latest builds of miui
as u hav added too many languages it will increase the size of the rom. poll it for the language required for the users
i have heard redmi note 4 has a slow motion camera .. so is it possible to port it ?
ram optimizing is must
instead of changing the default font y not including the font changing feature from china dev rom ?
include this multiwindow feature : https://forum.xda-developers.com/xi...trick-add-multiwindow-feature-miui-8-t3568148
(as i didnt tried this rom im giving suggestions blindly so u can bear with me )

Thanks for your valuable replay. .. due. To hardware limitation. We cant get slow motion video recording in your device. ... And my point is that to provide a rom with useful features. The.

Installation script to.. am stress testing the. Moded firmware.. in. Many ways.. to ensure its. Stability... Will try. My best to provide you a best. Daily driver with. Zero bugs

One thing ypu mentioned here about the font will try to update it on the 2nd build thanks for the. Suggestions
If possible Just need the maximum performance dude. I tried octos rom tweaked with kernel auditor to provide max performance. Which is far better scores than stock giving 45k(octos) vs 40k(stock).
Though secondary or optional Substratum/layers & DT2W feature.
i hardly belive that those synthetic bunch marks can only be written on papers
reallife perfomance is entirely diffrent from those in papers.. we may get 50k score but real life perfomance of miui (38-40k) may far far far better than 50 k

1) Make sure there is no problem signing to mi account.

3) Please include this https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/soundmod-axon-7-dolby-atmos-t3412342
4) Having multi window could be better.
5) If possible include option to change network band.

When will it be uploaded?
any exfat support?
Waiting for it!!!!!
Will just request two feature apart from all these what you are compiling:
a) Don't include viper arise or viper atmos, as it then crashes the miui default audio and headphones settings, which is much better than both of these IMO, instead just let it be default and give link for dolby atmos as it works perfectly fine with miui default equaliser.
b) Can you please include chinese rom package installer, not the google package installer as found in global rom, as chinese one is more beautifully themed, also like globe rom, can you please add Xylon animations in your rom?
Hope you will consider both these request of mine.
when u give the new build .. bro waitting lots
I think dev just uploading rom for days

[Reviews] [Feedback] Comparison of the different CUSTOM ROMs (features, exp, bugs)

LAST UPDATE: 04 March 2019
Hello guys,
Note: This thread has evolved a lot and now I don't feel it's about my personnal experience anymore. So I've just removed all the bits about myself as they are not relevant and appropriate. You'll have way enough information from the Google sheet as well as the summaries made by the community and myself.
Here you can find a nice spreadsheet made by @Macusercom and improved by @blinkin, the community and general and myself
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1OKpuzMbvMLZ8qtyDmbxMUCayUKM3nkuWhH00fRQqfcs/edit?usp=sharing
The spreadsheet is now in read only mode since some funny guys had fun messing with it. If you want to add something to the spreadsheet, just send a message on this thread and I'll add it myself. Don't waste my time / Macusercom's time sending PMs about getting the rights to edit it. Thank you for you understanding.
CAUTION: most of the following is outdated, and while it's usually still true, most ROMs are mature enough to be very similar in terms of performance, battery life and even features. So even more than before, it's mostly about personal preference. The spreadsheet should still be useful however, as long as it keeps being updated.
Lineage OS:​(thread link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/development/rom-lineageos-16-0-t3839750 )​★ Positive things
-Great performance
-Great battery life
-A few interesting features not available on other ROMs except HAVOC.
-Only custom ROM where Android Auto works.
-Privacy guard now works
★ Less-positive things (i.e. "bad" things)
-No signature spoofing
-Not as many features as other ROMs
AOSIP (Android Open Source Illusion Project)​(https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/development/rom-android-source-illusion-project-t3855343 )​★ Positive things
-Great performance
-Good battery life
-A lot, but not too many, useful features well ordered, so easy to find.
-OOS camera is included, as well as OnePlus gallery.
-OTA updates
★ Less-positive things (i.e. "bad" things)
?
Havoc OS:​(thread link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/development/rom-havoc-os-t3817805)​Feedback from @Macusercom
★ Positive things
- Currently, the ROM with the most features on the OP6. Period. (LiquidRemix has about the same amount of features).
-Stable
- OOS cam with portrait & night mode
★ Less-positive things (i.e. "bad" things)
?
Pixel Experience​(https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/development/rom-pixel-experience-t3856643 )​Feedback from @elmu
★ Positive things
-Great performance
-overall working well
-Low ram usage
-Bluetooth+bullets wireless work very well
★ Less-positive things (i.e. "bad" things)
-Dark theme not working properly?
-Some apps crashes/freezes?
-Camera crashes/freezes?
-Battery stats recording ambient display in your sot alltime (i hope you understand what i mean)?
OmniRom TreskMod​(https://www.treskmod.ru/ )​Feedback from @dante_nfs
★ Positive things
-Great performance, latency is very good with redflare kernel
-Great battery life
★ Less-positive things (i.e. "bad" things)
-No XDA thread, so hard to follow updates and feedback
-GAPPS included
OmniRom​(https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/development/rom-omnirom-oneplus6-t3841813 )​★ Positive things
-Great performance
-Feature rich
-Leading custom ROM when it comes to fix bugs etc.
-Great battery life
-OTA udpates
★ Less-positive things (i.e. "bad" things)
?
LiquidRemix​(https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/development/rom-liquidremix-t3840206 )​★ Positive things
-A LOT of settings and features
-Great performance
-Good support for MicroG (better than OMNI in my experience)
-Privacy guard is useful for privacy and it's working! You also get advanced permissions control (AppOps) which is neat.
-OOS Cam included
-[Official] so you get OTA udpates
★ Less-positive things (i.e. "bad" things)
-Lots of settings but they are a bit messy, you never know if they will be in /settings/display or /settings/liquidsettings/display for example.
-The theme is a little different to stock Pie. I don't like it as much.
-Fingerprint stops working randomly and the only temporary fix is to reboot device, until it happens again. It hasn't been reported lately so maybe it's fixed.
ArrowOS​(https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/development/rom-arrowos-t3869015 )​★ Positive things
-Very unique experience as most advanced settings are integrated in already existing menus. You won't find anything like "ArrowOS extra settings" and I think it's much easier to find options like that. Also, all custom settings are listed probably when using the search bar.
-Great performance
-Great support for MicroG (similar to Liquid, better than Omni)
-OOS Cam included
-[Official] so you get OTA udpates
★ Less-positive things (i.e. "bad" things)
-No vibration strength control
-Battery drain in standby is important (11% over a night). It migtht be fixed?
I will try to update this post with different feedback and will let you know about my experience on other custom ROMs.
Enjoy your OP6 and our wonderful community of developers, cheers! :good:
I feel like this thread is more about discussion than asking a particular question and expecting a specific answer. If you want, I could reformulate my thread as "Discussion about custom ROMs".

Thank you for granting my request! Hopefully, more people will be interested by the thread. I'm going to try to test other ROMs to see if this thread can get any momentum, when I'll have some time for it. :fingers-crossed:
I use stock with xXx module run into on top of it. The stock ROM has the features I need out of the box and the module on top helps supplement the experience. I'm shooting for a reliable stable experience which is why I'm not going to branch off to anything AOSP like.
The OnePlus 5 and now the OnePlus 6 for me have the been the only 2 phones I've never felt the need or want to put a custom Rom on them. The OOS has had just about all the features I used to put a custom Rom on a phone. What I don't get from the OOS Rom I get with ex kernel manager (increase vibration strength, increase max sound and in call volume). The one thing I miss is separating ringtone and notification sounds.

Sorry for the OT. But I'd like to know how do you flash it? The module of xXx. I'm very interested in that. Also, what you say is right, OOS gives to us the features that we need

Nothing special. Just make sure you have Magisk setup and then you flash it through TWRP. The only hard part is making use of the profile file that is needed for making your individual selections. Most people overlook it and then complain because it's using the default profile which gets rid of most things

Awesome thread idea as I've been meaning to try out some custom ROMs or kernels. As a side note, this is my first OnePlus device and coming from primarily Samsung devices this is the first device I can happily say so far that I haven't felt the need to install custom ROMs on as the experience has been fluid and updates have been quick.
I'm mostly curious about one feature to know whether it is available in either ROM or kernel format. On previous devices Resurrection Remix was my ROM of choice as it offered the customization and performance I needed without much compromise. One feature that I loved having the option for in RR that I sorely miss in OOS was enabling the volume rocker to skip or play the previous track by long press.
I know this is available in the OP6 Resurrection Remix ROM, but I've seen too many bugs reported to consider it a daily driver. I've also heard good things about the Havoc ROM listing it in its description, but from the videos I've seen it doesn't seem to have the fluidity that I love in OOS.
I'm curious if anyone has tried either a different ROM with similar fluidity too OOS with this feature, or if there is any kernel available that has this option. Any information would be appreciated.

Hi, thank you for your post. I'm actually using this feature on LOS. Apart from the few bugs I've listed, this ROM is very solid. Amazing performance (I can tell you, you won't be disappointed) and good battery life as well. You should give it a try, as long as the bugs don't affect you too much.
The HAVOC Rom seems very well maintained, unfortunately, I agree, there are too many features for my simple needs and it probably affects performance as well.
Using the stock rom with francokernel installed, I love the extra features and to have a awesome look I am using the AOD coupled with viper4Ndroid, lawchair launcher,lawnstep and Google framework.

Well, it actually happened to me once. I've tried since then to use my camera and never got an issue again. Also, in between there's been an update and since the update I didn't have any bug. So maybe it's fixed, I'm not sure.
If the bug is still present, it's not ideal obviously, but it's ok as far as you don't have to take an "instant" picture (i.e. something you have to take on the moment and not two minutes later).
Also, I don't know if that's related but I didn't have any issue since I've been using the OP6T apk.
So, to sum up, I don't know if:
1) I'm lucky
2) it's the 6T apk which works better
3) it's the last LOS update which fixes the issue
Original post updated with my first impressions on AOSIP.
I'll follow your first post
About Havoc OS: (thread link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/development/rom-havoc-os-t3817805)​★ Positive things
- Many features even border radius of the screen corners
- Stable and no crashes
- OOS cam with portrait & night mode
- Almost all bugs gone if OB6 is used
★ Less-positive things (i.e. "bad" things)
- Notch hide will return on next build (currently not available)
- Battery life (3–4 % standby drain per hour)
- Security patch says September 2018 but I assume it's from vendor and not from the ROM but I can't tell

So
Is this the final, final one? And, that new kernel that popped up in this section, shall I give that a go? I tried it with a Pie back up and that went into a real tight loop of maybe 2 seconds in between boots.
Anyway, thanks. I don't think I'll be doing the upgrade next week and this project is better than what I'd get, AND just saves time adding in extras.. No reason to pretty much downgrade (in my eyes) with the official. Hope that screen freeze gets worked out eventually so I can stop talking to my phone like a puppy when it boots.
k I see you added the kernel. No freezing on boot. Did a couple reboots but nothing weird.. Just got a nice Samsung logo display here and... yup. Welcome screen. Here we go.
Alright! Great work with the ROM and kernel addition. Still getting a bit of the freezes but not even close to as bad as it was a week ago. And if it freezes, it doesn't do it as the S or SA of Samsung starts. A little more crash friendly for the eyes. Really trying to like this update... but when you see the attached images it's almost like someone wants you to hate it. Once that panel fills out the screen there's 2 swipes to put it back, if you want to swipe. Speaking of progress, the stock weather app is coloured like you're not supposed to look at it.

lol there's still a long way to go with this rom, this isnt final
the only way the screen freeze will get worked out is we wait for official pie to come out for a530w and see lol
ye i kinda hate the fact that it fills up the screen and how it wastes space, but you get used to it, the thing i hate the most is the brightness slider location, its the very bottom and i prefer it to be on the top

Yeah what's up with that? I am wondering if there's something bigger in the making because it seems like this is not a complete OS.
Reminds me of getting a new Playstation and EA Sports makes hockey suck again and each year adds in the things they already had from the beginning so you buy it each year. But not with 2 thousand dollar price tags.
No matter what phone, i will not be on an unaltered OS for a while. I got a friend of mine to upgrade one of her S9+ phones and it kinda works for the bigger screen but still crud. Crud on speed. Keep on cookin'!
Battery life good, I think this rom smoother than the stock. Maybe you can add more custom content like that ringtones. Can you add tweak to change screen resolution like in the samsung flagship phone too? To preserve battery life. Great rom it is my daily driver. :good:

yep oneui literally was only here for like idk 3 months so it still needs some improvement
Slightly. The latest, or the one i downloaded last night hasn't had any freezes/reboots yet. Haven't cut out any apps yet but installed a few Magisk modules and usually would have had an issue at boot by now.
The brightness slider can be applied up top but it's bulky... of course.

Samsung released a buggy Android pie update so until they fix it all pie will have issues.
Yeah i haven't tried any video yet but i am prepared for that to freeze and this is an excellent version as far as an unfinished ROM goes. I didn't flash the module to maintain bluetooth in my vehicle either as of yet, but once again that functions flawlessly if i just accept the pop-up when starting my car. Not a major concern. What's vastly improved and most important is when re-booting it will not freeze at the Samsung logo if installing a module or for any reason... as of yet and hopefully always. Going to purge some apps now and let you know how that goes. Also, for anyone that wants, you can add camera shutter toggle, call recording and remove the security menu from the battery health section (not an uninstall but just omitted).
Here's the 3 entries for the cscfeature.xml described above that are working: I am getting spaces when i post so make sure to fix it.
<CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>TRUE</CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>
<CscFeature_SmartManager_DisableAntiMalware>TRUE</CscFeature_SmartManager_DisableAntiMalware>
<CscFeature_VoiceCall_ConfigRecording>RecordingAllowed</CscFeature_VoiceCall_ConfigRecording>
Most of you probably have them already but it's easier copying and pasting if you don't Be careful as there is a space in the code for some reason.
Also, not really anything required, but you can have a data on your power off menu and take out the auto-spacing in your dial pad entry. These should already be there and only require changing "FALSE" to "TRUE"
<CscFeature_Common_DisablePhoneNumberFormatting>TRUE</CscFeature_Common_DisablePhoneNumberFormatting>
<CscFeature_Framework_SupportDataModeSwitchGlobalAction>TRUE</CscFeature_Framework_SupportDataModeSwitchGlobalAction>
Nothing new, but working if you want them. Still trying to get blank texta but I think it's not able to be tweaked anymore. Not from the mentioned file.

Cool I'll check it out
Do you really get 8 1/2 hours screen on time with 50% battery left? I only get 6 hours 25 minutes with 15% left with my current rom.
Does this ROM support WiFi tethering? I feel like I need to ask this because some roms don't.
Uhhh that's the best thing which could had happened to our Pixel 4 XL !!

Usage with my Proton Kernel is recommended to get the most out of your phone. The ROM does not include Proton Kernel, so you will need to flash it yourself. The ROM will still work with other kernels, but you will not get the benefits of Proton Kernel.​

Which one is included instead? As the standalone Proton kernel is only available for the Pixel 5, right?

My guess is the picture in the "screenshots" otherwise I have no idea. I do not see battery anywhere else but I was also very curious when I read this myself.

Based on the screenshot, no mobile data and last charge was 3 days ago, it's probably a screenshot from a device that's not the daily driver and has been sitting on the desk for a bit, lol.
Android 12 is nice, but I want the full use showed in screenshots, so I'll flash back to 11 and run this tomorrow.

I am hoping someone using Proton now will see this and post a real life battery screenshot showing the actual battery estimates. Of course there's a billion factors that can cause battery life to suck and 1 user to get better than the next user, but a general pic would be nice.
I'm finishing up testing on the Bliss ROM 11 then I do plan to test the one next but it won't be right away.

I stopped worrying about battery life unless my phone is hot in my pocket for no reason, lol. Some people expect to get 8 hours SoT since one user achieved it, but 75% of that could be from watching media.
I don't average any crazy numbers for SoT unless I'm watching videos for hours.

I actually find that my pixel 4XL has much better life than any other device I've owned. My HTC10 was that only 1 that almost compared. My pixel 3XL and 2 XL did not get anywhere near what my 4 XL gets but I'm also not a battery watcher myself. I just disable apps I don't want running, or remove the "boot" service for apps I don't want running, and limit what apps can do what actions (network/keep alive / wakelocks / etc) and my battery life is stellar in my opinion.
My original reply comment was more for a general idea than anything sound with facts.

It's from my daily driver, but I don't charge to 100% all the time or bother to clear battery stats. I don't share examples of battery life because it's highly personal and I don't want anyone to complain about it being worse than expected. My personal usage is very light compared to many others, so it's not a very good example to use here.
Hello. Does this ROM support pixel shifting future like in stock ROM to prevend oled burn-in

Mine too for right now and it's really really good, battery is awesome so far! Check this out, last charge 12 hours ago and 86% left! I do prevent all apps I don't want running in the background from starting (SDMaid) and I do prevent many apps from using the internet (iptables). These help but even without them, the battery was really good!
Been running the ROM for a couple days now and I really like it. The new sounds are also very pleasant to the ear. I even set my transition animations to 1.5x speed and the animations make everything look better with my eyes.
Starting with barely any apps installed, instantly started off way faster than stock. Besides features missing due to be special to stock and tedious to port over, the only issue(graphical) I found is with the text clock on always on display, the icons overlap with the bottom text depending on what time it is.
Other than that, amazing work.
