Hello fellow OP3 owners;
I recently rooted my OP3 and am a noob when it comes to Layers. I've only ever used CM theme engine. I'd like to stay on Oxygen until the binaries for dash charging are released.
My question is, does Oxygen support Layers? Now that I am rooted is there anything special I might need to do to get it working?
Anybody with expertise to discuss is appreciated. Hope everyone is enjoying their new device as I am
Cheers!
Just installed layers manager and layers showcase from the play store and it worked. Sweet. It also doesn't trigger the safetynet check so if you are using systemless root, Android pay should still work. The downside though is that many layers on the play store don't list compatibility with the OP3 so many of them are harder to get from the showcase app.
Edit: Should mention I'm on OOS 3.1.2 with systemless SuperSU.

Every theme *should* work but I've noticed most ones that theme the "Framework" have issues such as not booting or rebooting when you get power menu style popups.

Have the same exact prob.
In December I installed MaximusHD ROM and Substratum. I tried out multiple theme packs and settings until I'm not getting bootloop nor constant "Settings has stopped working." error. Before every changes I had to do TWRP restoring backup to get rid of bootloop.
I know HTC 10 original ROM is flawed so not really compatible with Substratum. I would like to know if anyone has some working setting that one would be so kind to share. Thanks in advance!

Any system overlay that you apply with substratum WILL crash, since stock sense does not have the necessary OMS commits. This also applies for the settings overlay. Rest are fine i guess.

As it appears StatixOS is going to no longer be maintained for whatever reason, I'm stuck with a soon to be outdated ROM on my, to me, expensive phone. So I have a simple question...
What ROMs are there for this phone? I'm aware there are some that aren't listed here, but I'm looking for one with the same features as Statix (plus some other features). I'd also prefer it if the ROM were official, as that tells me it's receiving proper support and likely won't be dropped for some time.

Stock is so good now days that a custom rom is not needed anymore.
Use the stock rom with a custom kernel and you can find find a few addons to your liking.

Unfortunately I don't find that to be the case - the stock ROM doesn't offer the options that I like, such as navbar/statusbar cust., custom fonts, and precise DPI control, among others. Addons and third party apps can accomplish a lot of it, but very imperfectly, being more prone to bugs and issues than the same feature built into the ROM itself.
After having given Bootleggers ROM a try, I was VERY unimpressed, running into issues with it just minutes after booting and, even later after setting some things up, facing frozen apps, UX not responding properly and some rather suspicious activity (such as it somehow knowing what email I originally logged into my phone with, despite doing MULTIPLE full system wipes prior to install and being the ONLY custom ROM that triggered a "Severe security alert" from google upon trying to sign in), I've decided to stick with StatixOS until the LineageOS devs get off their butts and make an official ROM for this phone, as the unofficial one doesn't support eSIM which is required for Google Fi. StatixOS has the features I want, it's actually stable unlike Bootleggers "stable" build, and GPay works on it.
Note that my gripes with Bootleggers and the unofficial LineageOS are not meant to say you're not working hard at making a ROM - it's entirely a subjective review, and as a ROM enthusiast I understand the time and effort that goes into making a ROM even run partially right.
Have you tried Dirty Unicorns?
Or stock with edxposed and GravityBox (this is what I am currently using and it has been working perfectly for the last 2 months)?
How do you get GPay to work on StatixOS, I have tried using Magisk hide but it still detects root?

It may be an isolated case, but I had all google play services modules hidden along with google pay and other google apps (just in case they talk to each other), along with the safety patch module from magisk.

I'm using the latest DU official for bonito right now, and at first everything was working wonderfully - except Google Fi is running into some issues on it where I can't send messages or make calls without being connected to wifi or enabling mobile data. I might reflash Statix, or I might just live with having to keep mobile data on when I'm not at home or work until they patch it up.
ProtonAOSP
Android 11 ROM
ProtonAOSP is a minimal Android fork (custom ROM) focused on UI/UX and performance, with a touch of privacy.
Screenshots
Screenshots of the latest version
Installation
This ROM is currently distributed as factory images, similar to stock. Flash it the same way you would flash stock factory images. Don't forget to wipe all data using "fastboot -w" before booting the ROM.
Firmware is included, so there is no specific requirement for which version of the stock ROM you are coming from.
You can also use the quick & easy web installer, which allows you to install and update the ROM from any computer or phone without using the command line. The installer works entirely within your web browser and completes in as little as 4 minutes, depending on the speed of your internet connection. Consider using the web installer instead of installing manually.

Looks so tempting, downloading as I type.
Quick check - for the updates in future, would we still need to wipe data before booting if already in the previous ProtonAOSP version .
Thank you for bringing love to our pixel series !
Love to know what you have changed to alter battery usage before i download it, every other 11 ROM drains like a bathtub, even at idle
According to the Pixel 5 thread this ROM passes safetynet w/o magisk. looks interesting. Downloading now!

Hello. Proton is incredible. Very fast, smooth and tenacious. Tested it from the first version. Thank you very much. I want to clarify something else for myself: Do I need to flash in both slots if a stock is installed?

No, you only need to wipe data if switching from another ROM.

I didn't do anything specific for battery; it's just that battery tends to be better on custom ROMs than it is on Pixel 2 stock, partially due to being less bloated.

My ROM reports a fake security patch level to SafetyNet so basic attestation will always pass. However, I've observed that Google has started to roll out hardware attestation for the Pixel 2, so I also modified the model name with an invisible character to revert it back to basic. The Pixel 5 name is not used.

Sorry for the inconvenience, the problem lies in a botched SafetyNet fix that was missed in testing due to not flashing all partitions. You can make it boot temporarily by flashing the stock boot image. A hotfix that boots out-of-the-box will be up shortly.

No, ideally the latest stock ROM would be installed in both slots beforehand but that's only because this build is missing firmware. A hotfix will be up shortly with the latest firmware included.
Nice, got gpay working with magisk.
Unfortunately stuck on splash after installing edxposed. This is definitely an unreasonable request but if xposed edge features could be built natively into the rom I wouldn't need xposed

Xposed will never be supported, you are on your own if it's broken. I wouldn't recommend using it because it can cause all sorts of weird bugs.
A hotfix update has just been released to fix issues with a botched SafetyNet fix that caused most apps using HTTP outside of a browser to break, including Google Translate, SMS/MMS, and many others. I've figured out a new way to fix SafetyNet that doesn't come with those pitfalls, so SafetyNet is still passing out-of-the-box and apps will no longer break. A bug with sensitivity in the Active Edge settings has also been fixed, and missing firmware has been re-added so there is no need to flash the latest stock ROM first.
Re-download v11.2.0 from GitHub for the fixes. I've decided to re-upload it rather than bumping the version because the previous SafetyNet fix was very broken and also caused boot failures if boot.img wasn't replaced.

Great work, and thank you for the fast updates. Really looking forward to using the ROM when I clean format next time. Waiting for Google to release the last Security patch in December before making the jump, don't want to clean install every month. I usually stick with a ROM for a few months at a time.
Just to clarify if anyone is confused: this is an Android 11 ROM, not Android 10. XDA DevDB has no option for 11 so I had to put 10. I've just edited the DevDB info out of the post now and added 11 to the header so there should be no more confusion.
I am testing proton, so far its fast, snappy, and stable, one word of caution for anyone who uses my recommendations. Do not patch the boot.img as I always recommended, this landed me in a bootloop. Once I wiped the device clean, and started over (installed ROM+GAPP), then setup the device, then once setup, reboot to BL/TWRP (ADB TWRP), and installed MAGISK zip version from within TWRP, it booted fine. It only has an issue if you patch the boot.img from within MAGISK itself then ADB the boot.img. Normally this is the only method I use, but it will not work properly with this ROM (which is perfectly fine as the zip works great and passes safetynet out of the box)!
This ROM doesnt have all the goodies I am used to, BUT its a VERY decent, and stable 11 ROM so I DO recommend users to at least try it if you are looking for a decent 11 ROM. Battery life for me is on par with 10 so I do not see any major show stoppers using this as a DD. I will run it for a few days and report anything found (if anything is found), otherwise, its great.

thank you very much for your assessment! I also find this rom to be very stable, snappy and the slight changes to the stock rom are very well thought out - next to perfect! big thanks to the dev krag0n!
I'm coming from an Android 9 Custom ROM and I wanted to switch to this, the instructions states that it should just be a simple flash. Should I still start from a clean reinstall of stock Android 11 or does flashing this come with that already?

fwiw, there is no evidence that Google has or plans to force hardware attestation on Pixel 2/XL. i monitor reports of these things over in the magisk threads, and as part of my own magisk module, and theres no suggestion it will happen to Pixel 2/XL, more likely it will happen with 4+ than the old Pixel 2/XL....
Ill probably change the fingerprint back to Pixel 2/XL and Android 11, personally i dont see the point of spoofing another device when the Pixel 2/XL is still officially supported...just my opinion, no offence meant

My Pixel 2 XL has been getting hardware attestation in all of my tests recently if the model name is set to "Pixel 2 XL". It's possible that I'm being A/B tested and most users don't have this problem, but either way, I haven't been able to pass SafetyNet without changing the model name because of it.
Either way, I've added hacks into the system in my ROM to avoid spoofing the model name while still defying hardware attestation and passing SafetyNet despite being on a mismatching security patch level. I agree, I don't want to change the model name just to pass SafetyNet, so I've been coming up with other solutions to avoid doing that.

I don't know what could be the issue, maybe try to google or try disabling and enabling the fingerprint lock again.
I have tried few GSI Roms. Here is my summary:
Android 13
- AOSP, Android 13, No image with GAPPs pre-installed and cannot seem to install it. Tried NikGAPPs, and LiteGAPPs, both didn't work
- Google GSI, Android 13, same issue
- Pixel Experience, Android 13, GAPPs pre-installed but Fingerprint sensor won't get detected.
Android 12
- AOSP, Android 12, GAPPs pre-installed, Fingerprint sensor detected (changing color to white). Will stick to it unless there is an issue detected.

I got the image from AOSP under the official Android 12/12L section. You can find release here. The exact image I got is the system-squeak-arm64-ab-vndklite-gapps-secure.img.xz one since the standard gapps one came with an app called "superuser" which I couldn't seem to uninstall (I tried the scripts to remove supersu). This caused my banking apps to not run. That is why I installed the "secure" one and then installed Magisk and added my banking apps to the defylist.

I think VoLTE was available as an option in one of the ROM I tested but I don't remember exactly. Currently AOSP 12 doesn't support it. Hotspot worked on every ROM just fine.

I have been using AOSP Android 12 for the past week or so. Most of the things just plain works but somethings don't. Here is the list of things that are not working so you can decide if the hassle of installing GSI is worth it or not.
- Proximity Sensor is worse than it was in OneUI. Yes, it is a virtual sensor but on OneUI, it worked better. Now, it is worse. More often than not, it turns on the screen during the call. It would have been better if it simply didn't work.
- The viewport of default camera App in the AOSP displays picture in 4:3 but the camera hardware is giving out 16:9, so the viewport was squeezed. After installing GCam everything is good.
- Fingerprint Sensor simply doesn't work in-app like those in banking apps. It works on the lock screen but nowhere else.
- USB Audio Devices don't work. I have a USB-C to A OTG where I used to insert my headphones. On OneUI they used to work but here they don't. Storage devices work.
- 120 Hz felt smoother on OneUI.
Hello everyone
I managed to install LineageOS with working GApps and camera using this guide, so a big thanks to everyone who worked on flashing this phone
If anyone wants to install it, you need to:
Chose a bgN package (I installed this one : https://sourceforge.net/projects/an...UNOFFICIAL-arm64_bgN-vndklite.img.xz/download). It includes the GApps. You won't be able to install GApps after installing a vanilla (bvS / bvN) package. For some reasons, the /system partition is too small.
For unlocking camera and install magisk, just flash this kernel : https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/kernel-12-13-a528b-n-mesas-custom-kernel-r4.4490653/
I also installed magiskhide prop conf module, but I'm not sure it changed anything and the camera fix was probably already in the MCK. You can find it here anyway : https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...safetynet-prop-edits-and-more-v6-1-2.3789228/
