General GSI for our phone Corvus OS

So here's a ROM that i would recommend even tho it's in beta Corvus OS it's android 12 and everything works even the Camera but sadly not the greatness of Sony's Camera app...i personally haven't tried it with the Custom Kernel Kirisakura just yet but i will and report back on here if they place nice together...Magisk also works great with this ROM you just have to be careful what you flash...

Hopefully our device will be fully supported soon.

Just putting down some thoughts here.
  1. Double tap to wake is borked, the setting already hints that it is unlikely to work and I can confirm this.
  2. Forcing native res works rather poorly. On reboot I need to reset the dpi to make the GUI play nice, but some things remain iffy. Such as:
    1. Gesture navigation still thinks preview windows should be the lower res, not native (looks poor, see attached images)
    2. Some random visual glitches that cause a silent crash + restore, it's not critical but you can see it happening
  3. No built-in battery health (as in limiting it), have to use something external (AccA)
  4. Camera quality is way worse compared to stock. I don't mind as much as I don't care a lot, but quality regression is very significant (if I have to quantify it, I would accept 20-30%, but this feels more like 60%)
  5. The GCAM's I've found that don't immediately crash (not many) all have serious bugs
  6. No camera app found that plays nice with front camera, hope you weren't planning on taking pictures with the front camera
Edit: For 6 you can actually use the native app. Performance is super bad though.


To not sound too much like a downer I'll also put in some "niceties" compared to stock.
  1. Holding volume button to seek is now native
  2. OTA work again
  3. Good visual eyecandy for charging, locking and more
  4. No bloatware galore
  5. Much much finer control over lots of little things, especially status bar is very nice
Other things:
The default launcher is a bit lacking, so I installed Nova 7, but this still has some shenanigans with force reloading and short unresponsiveness with gesture navigation. Very annoying, but I'm quite sure this is not the fault of the ROM. Just hoped this was improved (suggestions welcome)

If someone found a good GCAM please share, the ones I've found are either broken or seriously lacking.

It seems that sometimes the phone does not respond to my finger until I press the button. This could be intentional to prevent accidental unlocks / phone being locked for X seconds because lots of "bad" fingerprints detected.
