hi guys! trying out Island for the first time and it works great so far.

unfortunately I'm having trouble with file shuttle support on non-rooted Pixel 3a, Android 10 with latest updates (march security patch).

went to 'Discovery' tab to find that, after granting the according permission via ADB, I can activate file shuttle feature there. afterwards I installed and cloned FX File Explorer as suggested and the 'Discovery' info entry for file shuttle went away.

however, in Island I can't get access to Mainland files at all. With FX Explorer and 'Connect to Storage' it does not give me anything else than the file system dedicated to Island. also classic 'Files' app doesn't see more files but I'm not sure if its supposed to.

could it be an issue with my non-rooted device, OS version or maybe a bug? do you know if there is anything else I can try except for reinstalling everything which I already did? thanks a lot in advance for your suggestions.

nice app!

I tried to solve my problems the last 3 days, I cant open my camera app on my xiaomi mi 9t pro in my normal profile. If I clone different camera apps to the working profile, everything is working.

I tried to reinstall island and my camera apps but without success. Error message depends on app: "Camera is already used by another app"

I restarted my phone many times.

I use a inofficial Lineage OS with Android 10 and Magisk. Any suggestions? I also removed the working profile in settings and dev admin. Is there a file-path where everything is stored? So I could try everything manuel?

Thanks, Farin

How to use FX file manager to access files in Mainland?

Can't find the "File Shuttle of Island in the side menu". After granting access to Island using adm and installing FX file manager and connecting to storage, still can't figure how to transfer files b/w island and mainland.

Edit: Device "Pixel 2"

anyone here on custom android 10 aosp rom succeeded in creating work profile with google account ?
[Android Apps and Games] laclac:
Hi, I have a problem with Island. I have the google play in the work profile (samsung stock), everything is working.

But when I download a big application on the google play (ex: 1Go), I have the message : space missing. But I have lot of free space (4Go).

So it's impossible to install of important appli/game with island. Could you help me please ?
[Android Apps and Games] bnwg:
I've installed a single app with 1G+ from Google Play Store in island without any issues. So I can confirm you it's no problem to do that in island.

The other workaround could be installing the desired app from mainland and clone to island with island app.

By the way, HTC U11+ stock android 9.0 here. Root with Magisk 20.3.
[Android Apps and Games] laclac:
Thank you for your answer. I can install the apps via google play on the island, but not the big ones.

Currently, I cannot put it on the main space and clone it, because the application that I want installed, isn't free. And I removed my google account on the mainland. (the google play is only in the island).
[Android Apps and Games] selfishjelly:
Hmm, you can give Aurora store a try (foss g play client, lets you log into your g account, downloads apps directly from g play)

When I clone an application from mainland to island. The application in the island has no data.

It's annoying when it's a game and I no longer have my save, or an offline application whitout export function.

I would like to know if there is a method to migrate the data.

I tried to restore the backups via Titanium Backup in the island. But Titanium Backup is not compatible with work profiles (it crashes/no manage).

I tried to copy the data from /data/data/com.myappli to /data/users/10/com.myappli but it didn't work.

Do you have an idea to migrate the data from an application to the island?

Does anyone know if installing and running Island is affecting battery in a noticable way?

Lets say with 0 apps running there.

I mean, how much affect on battery does this solution have alone?
[Android Apps and Games] neodymium60:
Hey, I've just found Join App by Joao and I'm setting it up on my devices. I have two devices running Island, a tab S5e running Android 9 and a OnePlus 7Pro running android 10. When I went to enable notification access for the work profile in the tab s5e, it all went fine, but when I've done the same on the OP7P, I get "Notification access is not available for apps in the work profile" - any idea if this is an android 10 thing? Or if there's a workaround? Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] neodymium60:
Actually, just tried installing Join in the work profile on my old OP5T, running android 9, and it worked no issue - was able to give Join notification access. So it looks like it's an android 10 thing. I've done a lot of googling and can't find out any more information about the change or if it's undoable :(
[Android Apps and Games] mindstorms54:
IDK, it wouldn't let me create work profile.

even the manual setup won't work(knox will stop island from opening when tring to launch the app)
[Android Apps and Games] vip5912:
KNOX and Island uses the same Android for Work profile.

You need select KNOX or Island.

If you like Island you need remove KNOX.
[Android Apps and Games] mindstorms54:
hmmm but I don't have secure folder setup, will it still interfere each other?

plus I still remember that, before I have my phone rooted, I use secure folder and island on the same time.

but anyway I'll give it a try.
[Android Apps and Games] vip5912:
I think YES.

How did you rooted your phone with active KNOX?

I didn't try secure folder only My KNOX.
[Android Apps and Games] mindstorms54:
nope, that's before I rooted my phone

Because I can log into snapchat with my work profile but not my normal profile and I want to move the account over

EDIT: Or is there a way for me to access the island apps with another app so I can backup the preferences of the app using Preferences Manager

EDIT2: Or a way to use apps that require root in the island be wise they all say can't find root when cloned to the island

[Android Apps and Games] Makavelli-:
My initial problem is that i want to install a GSuite work profile from my work to receive company emails.

As this does not seem to work becasue of a custom rom i looked for any alternatifes where i found Island.

I already read a lot threads and I'm not sure if this could solve my problem (if i ever get it running), but the root cause of both topics should be the same.

Not sure if it is becasue of knox counter or anything else but it semms to be a Samsung Problem as i do't have it on any other device.

So, i would be really glad if someone can help me getting either GSuite or Isrund running.

Does anyone knows what system information does Island hide from the apps it clones? I have a rooted OP7Pro, SafetyNet passes just fine but a banking app from my country still detects the device as being rooted.

Would be interesting to know what island does to mask the presence of root.

The banking app start detecting root since 2 days ago when it was updated.

Hi,

I can't hibernate apps in the island.

I installed island hoping to stop apps like messenger lite from auto-starting, wasting battery and data. I cloned the app then deleted the mainland app.

Now when I open the app, greenify shows 2 entries pending hibernation but it fails to hibernate (normal mode). If I select hibernation by island it works but then when I next open the app I have to re-enter the login details and all the settings have been lost.

Does anyone have a solution, I just want to stop the app, not clear all the settings.

I have also noticed that under "running services" there are many work profile processes and services running, probably using more battery than the app I'm trying to stop. How do I stop these when I'm not using any island apps.

Thanks

SIM card stopped working under Island

I tried Island on my OnePlus 7 Pro (GM-1917) running OOS 10.3.3.

As far as I know, I believe I correctly followed all of the installation instructions, and I did not set up God Mode. After going through all the steps, my device seemed to be working fine, except for the fact that it no longer recognized that I had a SIM card, and I couldn't make calls, send text messages, etc. After rebooting, the same problem continued.

I then uninstalled Island, but upon subsequent reboots, the SIM-card problem remained.

Luckily, I had taken a TWRP-based nandroid backup right before installing Island, and upon restoring my old system, I got my SIM functionality back.

Has anyone else encountered this SIM-card issue? Could it possibly be due to my having done something erroneously during the installation of Island?

UPDATE: Just to be clear, the OnePlus 7 Pro has the capability for dual SIM cards, but I always only use one. When I had the SIM-card problem with Island, the device always showed the icons for two missing SIM cards in the status bar. In other words, with Island installed (and even after uninstallation, as I mentioned above), the device couldn't recognize the presence of a SIM card in either slot.

Thank you in advance.

There are frequent updates on github, the latest at the moment v4.5.4 was released just 6 days ago. Its working fine for me on OP3T, OP6T and Samsung Tab with BLISS ROM.

[Android Apps and Games] btb55:
I saw your previous post regarding the SIM issue and hesitated before installing Island on my OP6T. So I installed it first on a spare OP3T, got familiarised with how it works and set up a few apps and all was good, then made a back-up on the OP6T and installed there too.

Which version of Island are you on?

After installing all i did was go to phone settings and give the 'work profile' its own security settings, PIN and fingerprint setup, (without doing that apps in Island couldn't use fingerprint logon), then run PlayStore under Island and login. After that I cloned a few apps to Island and they just worked. I also use AFWall+ so had to enable 'Island' in preferences and enable the Island apps separately to allow in them in the firewall.

At no point did my SIM not work.

PS My OP6T is still on Oxygen Android 9
