OnePlus 7 Pro issues

Thanks to the links here and resources on XDA and elsewhere the sensors are now working on my Op7Pro using latest /e/.

Device:

  • Op7Pro, GM1913
  • Software Base: Initially on Stock 10.0.? ROM, having installed /e/ e-0.7-p-2020033047438-dev-guacamole on top, everything fine with the exception that sensors are broken

Idea:

  1. Try to revert to stock pie rom, get sensors working
  2. Reinstall /e/ from there

What did not work:

What worked:

  • Steps exactly as described here: https://gitlab.com/LineageOS/issues/android/issues/1522#note_274265612
  • This gives the desired stock pie 9.5.11 rom with sensors working.
  • Install e-0.7-p-2020033047438-dev-guacamole, which gives /e/ with working sensors.
  • Then use temporary TWRP “fastboot boot ” only, do not try to persist TWRP with “fastboot flash boot ” & install twrp zip
    • fastboot flash boot & install twrp zip: Always resulted in ROM bootup becoming corrupted upon “install ”, leaving OS bootable, but fingerprint sensor and WLAN broken.
    • Tried standard trwp twrp-installer-3.3.1-4-guacamole.zip and Mauronofrio twrp-3.3.1-79-guacamole-unified-installer-mauronofrio.zip
  • TWRP Install of current Magisk installer zip works fine

Adaptive Brightness and Auto-Rotation are now working. Sensors are coming up fine.
