June 2023 security patches have been merged into Evolution X! 👌🏻

Version 7.9.3 is Bulalo! (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulalo)

Updates for officially supported devices will start to roll out this week! 🎉

Just to clarify, several removed features after the June 2023 security patch release are

- QS date/clock/battery customization
- QS panel styles
- QS header images
- OOS clear all button
- Per-app network restriction
- Status bar lyric support
- Status bar old mobile type icons
- Lockscreen battery info
- Lockscreen media artwork fade percent
- Proximity check on wake toggle
- Pocket mode toggle

Most of these were removed as the code changes by Google have made it near impossible to re-include them unless a rewrite of the code is made. We do have plans to bring them back, however, some have been broken entirely such as Proximity check on wake and Pocket mode. We're omitting them for now until we get them working again. Lockscreen battery info will not return as it only leads to misconceptions about charging time and temps.

Regarding the inclusion of OOS camera, it is still not allowed for future OnePlus releases. Meanwhile, MIUI Camera support will definitely return once the source commits to support them have been re-included. It will take some time but we do intend to release updates with Leica cam pre-included again, replacing GCam GO/Aperture camera.

For those experiencing QS lag from Evo v7.9.3-7.9.4, kindly turn off QS data usage. It will be removed in newer builds.

July 2023 security patches have been merged into Evolution X source! 👌🏻

Version 7.9.5 is Chicharon! (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicharr%C3%B3n)

Updates for officially supported devices will start to roll out this week! 🎉

Several useful features have been brought back with the latest source changes.

These include:

- Status bar brightness control
- Status bar lyrics
- Combined signal icons
- Pocket mode
- Prevent accidental wake
- Double tap to ambient display
- QS battery customization
- QS brightness slider haptic feedback
- QS footer text customization
- Reticker landscape only mode
- Kill button in notification guts
- Less boring heads up

Expect them to be included in the upcoming releases. :)

Latest Evo version is now 7.9.6 Pares. It's based on the latest Pixel Fold security patches (r66).

Android 14 will either be released by next month or September, in which case we will be in rebase mode once again. We hope you can stay patient during the following months as we will have to see which features can be kept or will be removed.

Thanks for staying with us. We appreciate all the support and we hope we can minimize the issues in the next releases. We will also try to support more devices officially.

- If you encounter internet connection issues coming from an older build with Per-app Network restriction, wipe data once.
- If you encounter issues with miui/leica camera, try turning off the Parallel processing function in the settings of the app, then restart the app once.

Our team wholeheartedly agrees with the crDroid team's statement.

We also provide updates there, as well as interacting with users and answering queries too. Would really help us grow and reach more potential users especially with Android 14 right around the corner!

As Poco F5 users were able to help fund us a device to build official updates for them, it's our turn to give back to the community.

Let's give this more traction and visibility. We can only hope the higher ups at Xiaomi notice the noise.
