Hello everyone, I'm trying to install Island in order to play multi-screen. Has anyone successfully installed island on a samsung (S8+) with magisk root ? I've used several methods but it fails at the secondary workspace level. Island is locked and I'm asked to uninstall it. See photo 1

What's more, in the island app, I have the discovery and mainland tabs, but not the island tab. See photo 2

Here are the adb logs, as you can see, the user doesn't start and i need help to fix it:

No I didn't have this problem but I tried because someone recommended Insular, saying it was de-googled and minus analytics and things.. and somewhat more secure. Come to find out it was the exact same thing it's made off of the same repo except it doesn't have access as well to like greenify and all of the other apps that the developer here made. I was able to grant it permission at one time and then I uninstalled granify within a problem and I was unable to grant the access to freeze things using island again because it would flag the package name and won't to install Island I don't know how I got it the first time it was in a notifications. I have the 8S Pro as well red magic, it ran fine however created the profile fine. My issue is that after getting rid of insular just out of wanting it to be better suited to greenify and all of the other apps, recreating that profile. I removed it manually from users deleted the work profile, it was still saying Island was installed when I was trying to install it after uninstalling insular, it took a reboot to fix this. And it won't let me set it up It does create a work profile and I can go through and remove it again, but it is not working with the app it just keeps telling me unable to creste work profile contact your IT administrator. I'm going to dig and see what I can find, I think it's something to do with the users or the permission where I had insular and managed mode before I'm unsure at this moment

Any current instruction how to get any of the cloning apps work on Galaxy s8?

Tried magisk hide - did not help, neither enforce deny list.

Installed KnoxPatch module

Changed Multiuser mode and Mount namespaces

-> did not work

Installed Shamiko module to hide root: https://github.com/LSPosed/LSPosed.github.io/releases

Added app in magisk > settings > deny list (have not enabled DENY LIST ENFORCEMENT)

Hid magisk app from settings as well

Installed https://github.com/kdrag0n/safetynet-fix

None of this helped. Once I launch Shelter/Island, I get the message "cannot create work profile"

Any advice?

If I recall correctly, oasisfeng say apps with gcm push will not work correctly if apps repacked. But gcm push will work under island since it isn't repacked.

Ops sorry, i just remember something. Those apps in island will not take space for APK file. Apk file is shared between main and island. It's proved by blazing fast clone installation. Android for work (island) separate the data only.

I don't think all of gapps and sytem apps. It's only playstore, google service, phone, messaging, downloads (maybe i miss some apps).

I can't give estimate :(. I don't use island anymore for now since I'm rooted. I use island to silence some apps which always running in background. That froze feature really useful.

Edit: anyway you should install file manager which have capability to count folder size to get rough estimates of used space

Great app. Smooth and at least at my side i dont have issues running it. My only concern for now is how to backup data files using titanium. Is there an accessible path where user can select files to backup?

---------- Post added at 12:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:34 PM ----------

I noticed that when you freeze an app like fb, the app also in the mainland gets frozen. When defrosting it will only unfreeze the clone. But restart will do the job.
[Android Apps and Games] oasisfeng:
No need to uninstall Island for OTA update, since it works as Android for Work which should be fine across OTA updates.

To completely remove Island, select "Destroy Island" (or "Deactivate Island" in God mod) in main menu.
[Android Apps and Games] bnwg:
The accessible path to folders for mainland is under /storage/emulated/0/ while the path for island is /storage/emulated/10/ (maybe different path for different users, the point is 0 and 10).

I think the file should be backup by titanium in island, not from mainland. And the backup folder could be under /storage/emulated/10/ or sdcard.

Multi-user should be enabled from SuperSU and SuperSU should be cloned in island as well.
[Android Apps and Games] oasisfeng:
Sorry, I'm not sure whether Titanium Backup supports Android for Work. Apps in Island residents within the secondary user space of your device, which can be located at /data/user/<user ID>/...

If you activated both God mode and normal mode, there're some known issues freezing apps. I'm working on a fix right now. Sorry for that.
[Android Apps and Games] ebautista:
Thanks. I felt ashame for not looking to that path. :D

Now that i know where it is. I will transfer my stuffs from parallel space to island.

[Android Apps and Games] ebautista:
I am thinking the same thing for Titanium. But I think it is best to try to clone Titanium to Island and then start the backup from there. And I can jsut manually backup /storage/emulated/<USERID> folder If I need to.

By the way [MENTION=4376588]oasisfeng[/MENTION], is the Share feature be implemented here. Like, I can see the clone app in the share list so that I can share from Mainland to Island?
[Android Apps and Games] oasisfeng:
If Island is working as expected, you will see a "Work profile" (or "Owner user") button in sharing dialog, which will give you option to share stuffs across the Island space.
[Android Apps and Games] oasisfeng:
Apps are cloned shallowly, that means only the data of app will use extra storage space. The app executable and resources are shared across users.

On some devices, the Storage setting may be showing incorrect app storage estimation for Work profile (Island space).

How to use it with system apps? In my note 5 N920I, Facebook and Skype are system apps, I can copy them to island, but I can not remove the mainland one, because I have no root, if I disable the mainland apps, island skype crashes on startup , and island facebook does not start( touched icon but nothing happens)

if I enable mainland facebook, the island one still does not start, it shows "You areusing this app in your work profile, missing required apps", If I enable mainland skype, still the same it crashes.

When I disable these two apps in mainland, it says you have to uninstall any updates and restore to factory version of them, so I clicked yes. Is this related to the error? How can I fix it? Of course if I open mainland apps, they do not crash but just say they are out of date, and needs updating.

[Encore Music] tuxdude143:
So after downloading this and firing it up I ran into this bug almost immediately which sadly makes the app near unusable for me.

You see I listen to a lot of music which does not have one universal album artist. Instead thee are multiple artists per album (basically a compilation album)

The problem arises when I want to open an album. Instead of getting all the tracks in an album and having the artist name underneath each track only 1 song gets displayed for each album which is usually either the first or last track.

It isn't like the songs are split into different albums either (although that would be probably worse so please don't so that if you work on fixing this). They are just completely absent from the album section.

It seems the grouping criteria involves the folder and ARTIST to be the same in order for something to get grouped as an album which isn't ideal for someone like me who listens to mostly compilation albums.

What might be a good solution is implementing a feature I have seen in another music player called rocket player. With rocket player you can actually select how you want albums grouped. For example I have it set so that songs which are in the same folder and are listed as being from the same album are grouped under one album. The artist tag doesn't actually come into play in this way which stops this issue with the sorting from actually happening.

I really do hope this gets fixed soon as for me it is a major drawback which makes the app almost unusable. At the very least implementing an option so the user can set how albums are grouped would be ideal.

I have attached some screenshots showing this issue below. (I have also attached a screenshot of what the album should look like when seen from another music player as well as a screenshot of that album grouping feature I talked about with rocket player)

Attachment Key:

First Image is what I see in Encore

Second and third image is what I was supposed to see (I.E those are all the songs that should be displaying)

Re download Odin and tar file. Have you gotten Odin to flash anything or does it fail or do you mean Odin itself isn't working? It sounds like you didn't extract Odin files and just opened it.

I had installed jasmine rom and ended up having problems with certain apps not working due to the modified framework he was using. I used odin to flash the new OB6 & pit (returns to locked boot loader with stock lollipop rom). I took the OTA to OF1, then used the yemen 1 click root. At this point the only issue I have is trying to get a customer bootloader installed. The TWRP version 3.0.2-0 just leaves me stuck at boot loader and I had to reinstall the pit file to get phone to boot again. Hope that helps you. I like stock rom but am trying to get native tether to work, without customer bootloader I can't flash anything.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
[threadjack]

I was fooling around with flashing custom recoveries from within a rooted ROM today, and found something useful - when I "got stuck at bootloader" because TWRP failed to boot. So long as the main ROM is still bootable and is rooted, you can clear the "always tries to boot the recovery" behavior the following way:

1) Pull the battery (and plug back in after a couple seconds)

2) Vol-Down+Home+Power (as if you are trying to enter Download mode)

3) When you get the Custom ROM Warning menu, choose Cancel (not Continue)

This clears the BCB (Boot Communication Block) in eMMC and the phone will thereafter attempt to boot normally, rather than continuing to try to boot the recovery again. The sequence #2-3 does not work if you don't start by pulling the battery - if you soft-boot by holding the Power button down (~ 15 seconds), the phone will always attempt to boot the (broken) recovery, whether you enter Odin mode or Cancel.

Well, that's the way my phone behaves at this moment. (I am using a older bootloader however - it is always possible that this is a bootloader behavior that changed in later versions). Anyway - if you get "stuck" again, this could save you some labor, rather than having to go back to Odin, flash everything, and re-root.

Having said that, I'm not sure what you would use as alternative custom recovery. You could do something like pull just the stock kernel from the OF1 and re-pack it into your own customization of TWRP to see if that changes anything. Thing is, I could have sworn I saw a report from someone who said they are using TWRP 3.0.2 with the OF1 bootloader successfully.

Are you using "twrp-3.0.2-0-hlte.img" ?

[/threadjack]
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] santas16:
I get a different kind of stuck, I'm not going to try it again but it said the phone has detected software that is not authorized or something along those lines. I cannot just pull battery as it just repeats over and over. I actually do not ever get to enter any recoveries at all, it automatically detects that's it's not the original bootloader and tells me such. anyways, I had to reload the image and take the OF1 update again... all is working back to normal.

I had used "twrp-3.0.2-0-hltevzw-4.4.img" from the twrp manager app, flashed via app, restarted to end up having the error message immediately on bootup of device... no recoveries or anything could load. I would have to assume the 4.4 means kk version and that's why it didn't work?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
Hmmm. Maybe I was reading something into your post that wasn't there. I assumed that you had also performed the retail-to-dev edition CID change "unlock" after you gained root on OF1. Is that wrong - did you simply flash a recovery after getting root?

In my case I flashed a non-bootable TWRP (dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p15...) onto the recovery; doing this tripped my Knox Warranty flag, but otherwise the bootloader didn't complain about unauthorized software. After figuring out how to clear the "always try to boot the recovery" near-disaster, I used a 2.8.x TWRP series custom recovery successfully (In addition to flashing the stock recovery back into place and verifying that it still worked) But this is on a truly ancient bootloader (MJ7), so maybe all bets are off about expecting later bootloaders to behave in this same fashion.

Still, the point of developer edition functionality is to allow for custom boot (& recovery) partitions, so it's surprising that you were getting warnings like that if your phone was in developer mode.
