Where Does Evolution X Store Updater Data?
Evolution X updates through its forked updater package, with SeedVault handling system backups here.
Last updated
Evolution X is a Pixel-flavored custom ROM with its own updater forked from Lineage. The updater package holds OTA state under standard private storage. Staged zips sit there before reboot. User data lives elsewhere. The path matters when OTAs stall or downloads repeat.
User backup runs through SeedVault, shared with several privacy ROMs. Quote the updater ID to support when OTAs stall. Dirty flashes keep data; major version jumps want a clean backup first. Check the updater screen inside settings after clearing to confirm fresh state. Keep a USB or cloud target ready.
Where Evolution X stores this, by platform
/data/data/org.evolution.updater

Frequently asked questions
How do I update Evolution X?
Open Settings, System, Updater on the device. The app ID is org.evolution.updater, forked from Lineage. OTAs download and stage there; sideload zips through recovery as fallback.
How do I back up Evolution X?
Through integrated SeedVault during setup, to USB or Nextcloud. Evolution X ships no custom backup package of its own. The updater dir holds OTAs, not user data.
