Can you put the GPS working in both original and cloned pokémon go app?
[Android Apps and Games] fedex_742:
yes, i miui 9/10 works great...
[Android Apps and Games] CapimPT:
I thought that you manage to put working on OP5
[Android Apps and Games] fedex_742:
in oneplus 5 the app pauses when you change the windows...
[Android Apps and Games] CapimPT:
Yes, but my only goal is to have a complete working clone app that I can change quickly with the original app
[Android Apps and Games] fedex_742:
in that case works fine...
[Android Apps and Games] Flying Scotsman:
The root files issue is related to Magisk (which has been fixed if you flash the nightly and delete the MagiskManager folder as it's no longer required). Go isn't using file permissions (which is what Island would be blocking) but an exploit in Linux/Android itself to check whether a file exists, and if it returns "access denied" (it exists) - then it'll block you. Island can't do much as that's an exploit it Unix and short of blocking all access to storage, not much can be done (and Go won't work if you go that far).

Updating your MagiskManager version to 5.0.4+ will however fix this issue (as long as you also delete the MagiskManager folder).
[Android Apps and Games] Kumczak:
Wow, thanks for such a detailed explanation! In the end, I did exactly what you just said. I repacked Magisk and then deleted the Magisk folder. The game works now.

However, there are many players claiming that sandboxing the game in Island worked for them. Maybe they have already deleted the folder anyway and then sandboxed the app?
[Android Apps and Games] anndrenaline:
Wow it works thanks!...after searching every app permission and gps settings, it turns out to be Battery optimization.

It's ok, the Xiaomi is able to run both at the same time in split screen but Island still can't do that.

Is this true today? I tried to restore a WhatsApps backup created in TitaniumBackup (Mainland) but TB (Island) said that it wasn't able to get root, which is needed to restore the app data! :(

Would I have to clone gallery and also have to duplicate all media in Island gallery or is there another way to access system gallery for apps in Island? E.g. For Whatsapp
[Android Apps and Games] Flying Scotsman:
Oh my god this actually fixed it! I've turned off Optimisation for Go as it kept disconnecting the Gotcha, but turning that setting on still fixed it for some reason. OP5 on OOS 8.1.

Need help to setup Island

Hey everyone, so i hope i dont mess up. I searched google and this threat several times but didn't find a solution that worked for my situation. I hope i didnt miss the answer im seeking. Anyway here is my problem:

im running Note8 SM-N950F with android 8.0.0 , rooted via Magisk 17.1.

I tired installing island the regular way with the app :

get the message that it cant creat the profiles as im running a modified OS.

try to run in anyways (with the setup island with root option) get the error: Sorry, something went wrong in Island setup. Stage 1.

Then i tried the adb variant of the setup.

but im unable to create the user profile. using the normal

pm create-user --profileOf 0 --managed Island

command gets me the error:

Error: Couldn't create user.

trying to fix this by using the command:

setprop fw.max_users 10

ends up giving me the error:

setprop: failed to set property 'fw.max_users' to '10'

I do get the right device shown when using the 'adb devices' command. debugging is enabled. doublechecked my root and it's working just fine.

CMD is run in admin, using Win10

i really dont know what im missing :(

Any help would be greatly appreciated! thanks in advance :)
[Android Apps and Games] JudgeDread11:
I have the same issue. I think it might work if you use a root solution that is not systemless and don't the management app to island. But I haven't tried it.

It would be nice if the titanium backup dev would implement support for duplicate apps right from the tibu app in the mainland.

Other question, does anybody have a suggestion for a firewall all that plays well with duplicate apps and uses the hosts for rather then a VPN service?

I have been using afwall+ for years and am very happy with it, but it doesn't handle apps in the island very well.

It doesn't see apps that only exist in the island. And it assumes that every app in the mainland has a duplicate. So all apps show up double in it's app list.

A work around is to set it to block selected. Any app it doesn't see, like apps that only exist in the island will get full network access that way.

This means it's less secure and it writes a lot more rules. 12xx compared to 2xx rules.
[Android Apps and Games] NayaDove:
I also have the Amazon Fire HD 8, I haven't uninstalled any of the Amazon apps and in fact, I tried installing Island before even touching any of the Amazon apps and I'm unable to use the create-user command. When I try I get "unable to perform this action on production builds". I've been unable to find anything about it on google. If I try to use Island without doing manual setup it says that Managed Profile isn't supported on my device, so I'm unable to use Island without a solution to the create-user issue.

WhatsApp backup/restore

[MENTION=5993745]JudgeDread11[/MENTION] - I found a solution: I used the backup feature/restore feature included in WhatsApp to archive the goal! I was so used to TitaniumBackup that I wasn't thinking about the easiest way at all! :D I transfered the WhatsApp backup files from '/WhatsApp/Database' via the Island shuttle feature.

---------- Post added at 11:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:47 PM ----------

You should rethink if your really want to sandbox the WhatsApp app if you need the app to access all the media in the Mainland. Maybe XPrivacyLua is better suited for your needs?
[Android Apps and Games] ~~Tito~~:
How can I use titanium backup to backup/restore apps from the mainland to the island? I'm trying to isolate many apps, but it's currently not fesable to restore the data from app onto the island.

I can transfer files to the island such as a backup file, but titanium doesn't detect root. I don't want island apps to be able to see that I have root access anyways.
[Android Apps and Games] JudgeDread11:
You can't. :(
[Android Apps and Games] ~~Tito~~:
Not even with adb?
[Android Apps and Games] bnwg:
Sorry to say that but it seems what you are looking for is contradicting each other. While you don't want apps in island see root you want TB that needs root working in island.

Maybe one thing you can test is to have Magisk in island and hide root from the apps you want in island. Not sure it will work or not. And hiding too much apps will cause unstable according to John Wu
[Android Apps and Games] ~~Tito~~:
I tried to use Magisk temporarily in the work profile. Doesn't work. I will probably have to redo the app.

I searched and didnt find anything so I'm asking here . When I have my work profile enabled if an app updates through the work play store the normal play store is unable to install or update any apps related or not to the application that was updated. When I removed my work profile my play store worked normally again . Is there a setting I'm missing ? . Phone is Moto Z running Android 8.0 no root.

Hi guys,

for me this app is very interesting and I tryed to install on a new Oneplus 6 rooted with twrp 3.2.3 and magisk 17.1.

First of all I tried simply to download and install without any setting and Island seems work. But if I try to open android settings in Island area I have an error "sorry there is an error launching this app".

Can I try in God mode?

[Android Apps and Games] Donkarz:
Ok, could someone link me to a page that describes how to use Island? I installed Island without problems. So, lets say I would like to run Instagram in the Island work profile. I go into Island and install it as Island Version. What do I do afterwards? How do I run the Island Version of Instagram? Alsways by going into Island and than clicking on Instagram? Or can I make a shortcut for the Island Version?

And is there a way or an app to see which Apps are calling home?

Thanks for your help

I found the wrong setting in my Magisk config. Now root can be used in my Island! :good: You need to enable root for all users. I tried 'seperate rules for each user' only. No need to install the Magisk Manager in the Island.

[Android Apps and Games] difto:
I tried to run Island on a rooted Galaxy S7 with "stock" rom. Now Samsung says that the system is custom and so cannot run another environment. So I tried to setup with root, says that he fails "stage 1". I tried the adb method, I get "Error: couldn't create user", then I execute "setprop fw.max_users 10" as recommended in this case but still gets the same error. Not sure how to continue from there...

# getprop fw.max_users

10

# pm get-max-users

Maximum supported users: 10

So it's not that

Edit: in fact in the command specified in the troubleshooting guide, no user name was given. I put the username "Island" and could create the user. Now running the next command:

dpm set-profile-owner --user <user id> com.oasisfeng.island/.IslandDeviceAdminReceiver

[Android Apps and Games] jabu:
First off, thank you. This app is incredible. I am running it on Android 6.0.1 Huawei rooted with magisk. It works well and setup was easy. The only issue I have had was with that monster catching game. If the game runs for hours, when opening Island to force stop it, the Island isn't there. The first few times this happened I deleted the Island and made a new one. But I eventually found that if I simply close the game then relaunch the game, the Island is back to normal.

Oops, I spoke too soon. Just tried to update this on Google play store and it said app couldn't be updated. I uninstalled and tried to reinstall. Got the 504 can't install app error. Cleared data from play store, play services, removed Google account, and rebooted. Same error code. I downloaded the apk from the op link and the new 2.9.1 gives a parsing error when I try to install it. In file explorer the apk has generic Android icon. 2.8.2 apk seems fine.

The problem seems to have changed a little bit. When i use a OpenVPN connection, instead of the build-in Android VPN Client, and connect to the OpenVPN Server, i use the OpenVPN connection in mainland. But in the island results are mixed. Sometime, i have generally no internet and sometimes i have internet without a VPN tunnel. I can test this, since the VPN uses in both cases a different DNS server. This other DNS server is in effect in the mainland, but not in island, according to dnsleaktest.com. How can i use the same internet connection in mainland and island?

[Android Apps and Games] 513263337:
Huge thanks to the author for the amazing work. Both Greenify and Island have been a god send for me.

I'd like to report a bug - it may not be an Island bug, could be just how Android handles the separate work user profile, but still I think the behavior is wrong hence I'm reporting it:

Island version 2.9.3

Android 8.0 Oreo

Essentially, some of the app specific settings such as "Allow background activity" and "Can change system settings" for apps in the Island environment do not persist and revert to defalut "On" after Island freezes the app.

Detailed steps:

1. Let Island set up the work sandbox automatically (did not set up God mode).

2. Clone an app from Mainland to Island.

3. Remove the app from Mainland (this step is probably optional).

4. Go to the app settings of that app in Island, go to "Battery", turn off "Allow background activity"; Also scroll down to "Apps that can change system settings", turn it off too.

5. Freeze the app in Island (either directly in Island or through Greenify).

6. Go back to the app settings of this app in Island, observe that the two settings that were previously turned off are turned back on again.
[Android Apps and Games] ShocWave:
Is there any way to have the "work" apps compatible with Samsung's implementation of split screen in Android 6.0 and below?

The reason why I ask, is because Google's implementation will pause inactive apps as you switch between the two, while Samsung will allow both apps to run in the foreground.

I'm able to use any app in split screen, but for some reason, the ones with the work icon do not have that option. Any ideas?
