Cyanogen OS 13.0

Cyanogen OS 13.0 is rolling out now for the OnePlus One
Cyanogen OS 13.0 has started rolling out, beginning with the OnePlus One and will be followed by other devices. Here’s a look at what’s in this update.
Tastes like Marshmallow
Cyanogen OS 13.0 is built on top of Android 6.0 Marshmallow. Marshmallow offers a number of useful features that Cyanogen leverages, including:
Doze
Doze increases your battery life by putting your device into hibernation mode when the device is not in use. When in Doze mode, your device will limit CPU and network intensive tasks to conserve battery life. You can now forget to charge your phone and still have juice left for the next day!
Permissions control + Privacy Guard
Marshmallow brings new privacy features to the operating system, enabling the user to allow or disallow a particular app from accessing certain device information, such as your contacts or camera. Permission control is complementary to our ever-popular Privacy Guard, which gives users more fine-grained control of what they share and with whom.
App Standby
App Standby determines which apps have not been used recently on your device and then puts them into sleep mode so that these apps no longer consume precious battery.
Quick Settings tiles
An existing popular feature of Cyanogen OS is Quick Settings tiles management, which has been added to Marshmallow in this update. This allows you to customize layout and options directly via the Quick Settings panel, using configuration items such as ‘enlarge first row’ and ‘show weather’ which are now present on Quick Settings panel while in edit mode, and live reordering of tiles.
Truecaller mod for Messaging
Cyanogen OS is already integrated with Truecaller for an enhanced dialer experience — you are able to screen calls via caller ID and block unwanted spam directly from the native Dialer. This global partnership now extends the Truecaller mod into the Messaging app. The Truecaller mod is available only on Cyanogen OS. With Truecaller for Messaging, you can:
Know who is texting with the power of the Truecaller network containing over 2 billion phone numbers.
Identify spam and block them directly from within the Messaging app.
Protect others by reporting spam to the Truecaller community.
Truecaller is integrated directly into the Messaging and Dialer apps. To enable the Truecaller mod, users can accept the Truecaller permissions from Dialer or access the Truecaller settings in Dialer. There is no need to install a separate app and you can turn Truecaller off at any time.
The Truecaller mod for Messaging is available on any device running Cyanogen OS 13.0 and up. The MOD platform is discussed in our previous blog post.
There are plenty of other new and improved features in this OS update on top of the hundreds of features you have come to expect from Cyanogen OS. Among these, you will also notice an emphasis on performance improvements that make the experience even smoother than before. We are looking forward to bringing Cyanogen OS 13.0 to users around the world beginning with the OnePlus One.
Must be nandroid back up and put it somewhere in a safe place. Just incase there is a problem you have your own back up.
Must be stock and fully unroot.

Need Oreo Rom for Nubia Z9 mini device

Hi devlopers,
I need latest oreo update for my nubia z9 mini. I want feature like listed below:-
ZTE Nubia Z9 Mini owners can now update their device to 8.0 Oreo by using custom ROM. Android 8.0 Oreo comes in with many improvements and features such as:
✔ 2x faster: Get started on your favorite tasks more quickly with 2x the boot speed when powering up.
✔ Background limits: Android Oreo helps minimize background activity in the apps you use least, it's the superpower you can't even see.
✔ Autofill: With your permission, Autofill remembers your logins to get you into your favorite apps at supersonic speed.
✔ Picture-in-Picture mode: 8.0 Oreo allows activities to launch in picture-in-picture (PIP) mode. PIP is a special type of multi-window mode mostly used for video playback. PIP mode is already available for Android TV; 8.0 Oreo makes the feature available on other Android devices.
✔ Notifications: 8.0 Oreo redesigned notifications to provide an easier and more consistent way to manage notification behavior and settings.
✔ Android Instant Apps: Teleport directly into new apps right from your browser, no installation needed.
✔ Emoji: Share the feels with a fully redesigned emoji set, including over 60 new emoji.
✔ Autofill Framework: 8.0 Oreo makes filling out forms, such as login and credit card forms, easier with the introduction of the Autofill Framework.
✔ Wi-Fi Aware: 8.0 Oreo adds support for Wi-Fi Aware, which is based on the Neighbor Awareness Networking (NAN) specification. On devices with the appropriate Wi-Fi Aware hardware, apps and nearby devices can discover and communicate over Wi-Fi without an Internet access point.
✔ Smart sharing: 8.0 Oreo learns about users' personalized sharing preferences and better understands for each type of content which are the right apps to share with. For example, if a user takes a photo of a receipt, 8.0 Oreo can suggest an expense-tracking app; if the user takes a selfie, a social media app can better handle the image. 8.0 Oreo automatically learns all these patterns according to users' personalized preferences.
✔ Doze Mode 2.0
✔ 8.0 Oreo VR (Virtual Reality)
✔ Multi-window support
✔ Direct Reply Notifications
✔ 3D Touch support
✔ New quick settings menu
✔ 8.0 Oreo multi-tasking
✔ Unicode 9 support
✔ Comes with the Android Pay feature, which is a mobile payment platform.
✔ A more efficient management of RAM.
✔ Support for fingerprint identification.
✔ Overall smoother, more powerful and faster computing experience.
✔ An overhauled Android extension pack and OpenGL 3.1 support put Android devices alongside cutting-edge graphics rendering, making it a serious contender with the console and desktop-type performance.
✔ A smarter notification bar that provides an intelligent ranking based on the medium of communication and who it's from. You can easily see all notifications packed neatly in one area when you tap at the top of the screen.
✔ Updated protection against device vulnerabilities and malware with the new SELinux enforcing software.
✔ And many, many other little but equally awesome features!

Just to help out a bit, if possible:
Camera seems to be fine on my P2XL - though I have not enabled any HDR+ or raw settings.
Now Playing is working for me, grabbed the theme song off the show I was watching last night.
Markup "edit" button can be fixed. Clear data in markup, open photos and use markup from within that; you should get a permission request. (simply going into permissions on the markup app and enabling any/all may work as well, but is untested)
In dialer/recents, tap the number, and choose block from the drop down menu. I am in the beta for the Google phone app - so that may be part of it. Dirty flash may also affect this.
Clarification only: Photos is broken in dark-mode, but only in that all options dialogs/drop-downs are white text on white background. Other than that, you can still browse photos/albums, etc.
For clarity: My device is the Pixel 2 XL and Q was installed via factory image with full wipe (no dirty flash), and I did not restore from any backups.
Camera is fine for me on 2xl. Nothing different. HDR+ works as normal so does raw DNG.

Now playing is working for me - just not displaying on the lock screen. I just got home form a birthday party, and every song the DJ played is in my NP history;
In addition to the charging time estimate, the estimate in the pull down notification area is completely off base compared to the estimated time left in Settings --> Battery;
My built in screen recording works for me, and has worked since I enabled it from the Features flags in Developer Options;
No issues with Google Photos with dark Mode. Caveat: I had dark mode enabled in Pie, and took the Q DP1 OTA over that Pie install;
I found that there is a microphone icon at the top left when selecting Panorama photo mode that I never saw before (was that introduced with Q DP1, or just a very recent Google Camera update?)
I've not noticed a discernible slowdown in the Camera app (and I always use HDR+ / Night sight for my photos), but I have noticed that when I try to view a picture / video, particularly like an MMS in Messages / Google Voice, the phone is extremely slow and laggy.
@eBENdre just got xl 2 ,prerooted,one question,if i install Q 1 will it owerwrite twrp magisk also,will there be problems maybe? Thanks
For years used htc,this is new for me.

Yes, it will overwrite twrp and magisk.
There are always potential problems with any update to beta builds, however, many are running Q without issues. Best advice I can give is to familiarize yourself with fastboot commands, since you'll need to install twrp again, and read, read, and read again all of the information in the Q threads so you know what to do and expect :good:

Huge thanks mate,and there is problem for me,as keybord not working on laptop...
You'll probably need access to a different computer - or else need to buy a cheap USB KB to use, because use of a separate computer / laptop is pretty much essential to get this working (root + Q, not to mention installing TWRP by using fastboot boot to boot TWRP, then installing TWRP from inside the booted TWRP).

You should get the next update fine, provided your on stock recovery without root. I don't run betas personally, but my info comes from reading about others that do. As with anything android...YMMV :good::laugh:
Android Q Beta Experience
I've been on Android Q beta for almost 3 weeks now. It is used as a daily driver since I have only the one Pixel 2. I flashed the new image myself using TWRP rather than opt into the beta with Google. Other than a problem with now playing not always showing up on the screen and a slight delay when I go to the Favorites page in Phone app everything seems to work alright. I am getting roughly the same battery life as with Android Pie. Oh, and my banking app (ICICI Bank, India) is not working. It doesn't send an SMS to activate the app. I thought this might be as the phone number is shown as unknown. I understand that Vodafone in India does not show the phone number in the SIM information in Settings. I have activated dark mode and even photos and camera app work without a hitch. I have rooted with Magisk (Canary channel) and that is working without any problem.
OTOH, I've also been on Q since the day it came out (my birthday, coincidentally - love being an Ides of March baby lol).
I've had some issues crop up here and there, but nothing really serious. I was on Pie, rooted, and used the uninstall routine inside of Magisk to de-root my Taimen before taking Q, and then rooted it again with the (then latest) canary build.
What I'm hoping is that the Magisk procedure to de-root the device, take the OTA, and then before rebooting, applying the patched boot.img to the new partition will work, the same as if you're rooted on Pie and get an OTA.
Time will tell.
My notifications is coming like this only.. is this a bug?
or the clock is missing?
My device is not rooted. I'm not using any module or theme.
Clock missing - have you rebooted?

Yes I have. Atleast 2-3 times.
Wonder if it is System UI Tuner related?
You could give this a shot and see if the System UI is set to hide the clock, though the last time I actually tried to hide the clock, it didn't leave that space there....
