Update

Due to feedback, we have found issues with our implementation for supporting Substratum themes. We aim to have them working correctly again for the next release, however for now we don't support or endorse using Substratum themes
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Megamix71:
Hey guys,how can I download the beta 0.16?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] shhnedo:
Normally, by reading OP carefully, but it seems they've pulled 0.16 build because of the theme engine implementation(read above your post).
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Andreagia1994:
Now substratum working?

Beta 0.17 is up
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] asparaz43:
I'm noticing the lag in opening and closing of the various applications with this beta 17

Hi!

I am trying to flash beta 0.18 but it requires a vendor ending with *26T, can anybody help me?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
My derp :) updated the OP
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] phaleg:
Which one is the right vendor for build .18 ?

When I first booted up, system told me that I was running the wrong vendor...
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
Should be this one:

ROM Firmware Required: N4F26T vendor
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] phaleg:
Ok, I am downloading N4F26T vendor from HERE

I was following the instruction at https://slimroms.org/#/support/install

and there was no mention to install a specific vendor...

I have noticed that it is something that changed over the time, with my past devices flashing vendor separately was not required... in other word flashing is becoming a longer process

when I first started with an Orange San Francisco, ROMs included gapps

same with Nexus one and maguro

then they started to do not include gapps (flash separately I)

then they started to do not include default root access (flash separately II)

now you often require a different vendor (flash separately III)

It is not a critique, just to learn, why is it evolving this way?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
It's complex. I'll try to explain, so bear with me for a while :)

1. There are several gapps packages. Some people prefer opengapps, some prefer dynamic gapps (ex- Banks). ROM developers don't limit their users. You have a choice, and that's a good thing.

2. Users are divided into 2 main categories nowadays: Android Pay (Pokemon Go, etc.) users and root users. And there are several root solutions out there as well. So, again, it's all about choice.

3. For separate vendor images you can thank Google, but I kinda like this thing - less trouble with blobs during a ROM build.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] phaleg:
I understand the point 1

about the 2nd, which root option works with android pay?

about 3rd, what is BLOBS?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
I heard, magisk works. Haven't tested, AP is not available here.

Blobs are proprietary binary files.

[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
Is it mentioned in the OP?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] asparaz43:
The next update will be based on 7.1.1 or 7.1.2?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] prbassplayer:
7.1.1. Hopefully we can get 7.1.2 merged for next week.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
[MENTION=4750792]phaleg[/MENTION] just got local banking app working with magiskhide ;) AP should probably be good too
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] phaleg:
I will keep it in mind!

I am trying to figure out what AP is

ATM my banking app does not bother to be on custom rom...

Not sure if I am rooted now
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] odunke01:
AP is android pay.

Magisk is good, unfortunately magiskhide doesn't work on all banking apps.

*Shakes fist @ starfinanz group*

Looking forward to 7.1.2 slim. I hear the battery is better.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] phaleg:
Deja vu :highfive:
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] odunke01:
The hype is real.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
Beta 0.19 is out with a new feature Proximity Wake. Still 7.1.1 (next one will hopefully be 7.1.2)
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] asparaz43:
Vendor.img N4F26U ? :)
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] indian84:
March Vendor...
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
N4F26T
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] phaleg:
Same as the previous one then!

Could we have the link of all required files in the first post?

On slim website you don't find the vendor for example :D
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
I can do that in the first reserved post, if people really need it :)
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
Please DON'T download the 0.20 build. I will fix it ASAP and report back. Sorry for the inconvenience.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] tuhinxp04:
What is the problem of the build...?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
It has stock AOSP kernel, old vendor and device parts
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] tuhinxp04:
Then Please Update those...we want to use Uodate Build...!
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] asparaz43:
No need to ask, he is doing it in his spare time for us
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
As of now, all that left is the kernel
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] buffer overflow:
In that case we could use a custom kernel, right ? ??
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
It needs to be rebuilt, still :)
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
UPD: all the proper sources have been merged, I'll get you guys a build tonight
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
Here it is guys: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=529152257862722077

Built by me on my home PC (not via Slim jenkins), so labeled unofficial.

Vendor image link: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=745425885120722182

Build was completed today and I haven't had the time to thoroughly test it so please make a nandroid and report any issues :)
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] asparaz43:
For now no problem gesture finger works. ;)
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] nifotc:
I'm having issues with the finger print scanner with this new build 0.20. Doesn't seem to be working. I did a dirty flash by deleting system and installing after and wipe cache/dalvik.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] indian84:
If you read Victor's post on last properly, you will not have this issue.

He has linked a vendor image that you have to flash.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] nifotc:
Thanks for your help! All working after the vendor flash. Didn't realise the vendor image was so important. Have been using different versions this ROM for a while now and every release improves on the last. Great work! Thanks all for your hard work.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
Beta 0.21 is up, minor fixes this time :)
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] phaleg:
Same vendor as 0.20 ?

Usual flash process?

Not sure if moving from 7.1.1 to 7.1.2 requires additional steps
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
Yes, the same vendor. I always wipe /system when flashing a ROM and never encountered any issues.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] phaleg:
Normally, is it coming a beta build each week correct?

In this case I wait and flash the next build coming :D
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
Yea, it is called weekly for a reason ;)
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] phaleg:
Awesome :D

---------- Post added at 07:35 ---------- Previous post was at 07:13 ----------

Coming from your 0.18 and I am going to dirty flash the next one,

should I flash gapps as well?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
Beta 0.22 is up, May security patch merged.

[MENTION=4750792]phaleg[/MENTION] it is a good practice to flash fresh gapps after a new security patch ;)
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] phaleg:
ROM Firmware Required: N2G47O vendor ?

I know that I asked it already, but I have seen a difference between first post that states "ROM Firmware Required: N2G47O vendor" and the last time you provided a vendor in post #499 that you link to vendor-bullhead-N2G47F.img
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] asparaz43:
First upgrade vendor to N2G47O ;)
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
Vendor version changes with every security patch

finger print issue on privat24

Victor,

thank you for a great ROM, I like it a lot.

But there is an issue with fingerprint on the app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ua.privatbank.ap24&hl=uk

it doesn't see a fingerprinter registered. When I run stock or other custom ROMS, like pure nexus etc., fingerprint login works.

Do you have any ideas why? is it related to slimrom or it is better to contact app developers?

P.S. last time I tried it on slim 0.23.

Thank you
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] prbassplayer:
Provide a logcat?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] indian84:
Howdy stranger?

Long time no see. :P
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
Indeed logcat would be nice. Any other problems with fingerpring scanner? Like, phone unlock, other apps that require it? I mean, is it a ROM wide or a particular app issue?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] xorwin:
logcat

thank you for a prompt response.

please see logs attached. I wiped the whole system, installed slim 0.24 and 2 apps to test. privat24 and PayPal. Paypal fingerprint login works, with privat24, it doesn't.

https://drive.google.com/open?id=0Bwl8OAlkT_RjYVRxODlHRDYzN1k
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] prbassplayer:
Hey man, still around :)

That logcat doesn't show anything except sched_policy is unhappy :p

https://slimroms.org/#/support/report-bugs
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
Unfortunately, the log is pretty much empty :( I've checked the device tree, and it's identical to PureNexus fingerprint scanner wise. It works for me with Play Store and Sberbank Online. I can't really suggest anything else to test and debug your issue...
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] nirogu325:
Your presence brings back lots of very good Samsung Vibrant memories. Cuídate :highfive:.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] zunk:
I just did a clean install of 0.24.

The fingerprint scanner does not work when you do the first setup, neither later on through the settings. I don't know what more to test or what more to provide you.

It worked on 0.15 and later when I updated to 0.19.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
I'll check
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
Beta 0.25 is up, minor changes again.

P.S. Still looking into fingerprint scanner issue, time is very short
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
Check if /system/bin/fingerprintd exists
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] zunk:
I'm really sorry for being a noob, but how?

Usually the root-rabbit hole make hours become days (or "factory resets", depending on how you measure "time") ans so forth. I don't really have time for that at the moment.

1. I can only read /system with root?

2. Then how's the easiest way to become root?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] prbassplayer:
No you shouldn't need root to read system (you need root to write to it). But simplest way to root https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] zunk:
Okay. Ehm, how do I read /system?

I've tried ES File Explorer (I unlocked "System hidden files" and also checked "show hidden files" in settings), can't find /system.

Also "File Commander - File Manager", doesn't find anything.

I also connected to my computer but nothing.

Lol, I feel really stupid. I'm usually quiet computer savvy :P

---------- Post added at 03:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:05 PM ----------

I installed a terminal emulator and "ls /system/bin/" gave me this line at the top (among many others):

"ls: ./fingerprintd: permission denied"
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] prbassplayer:
Like a said you don't need root to see system. For example solid Explorer, go to settings enable show root folder and navigate to /system/bin and should show, screenshot of a un rooted stock sgs7
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] zunk:
Oh that worked. Thanks.

With terminal emulator:

EDIT: Sorry for the highres....
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Cilenco:
I would like to install the ROM today. Is N2G47O (or should I use N4F26O or NPG05D (which one is newer?)) the right vendor image and is NMF26F for Radio & Bootloader okay?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
Correct vendor is in the OP. Radio should be ok, bootloader probably too, it's just my personal preference to always flash the latest
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Cilenco:
Thank you for the quick reply! Isn't NMF26F the last Radio & Bootloader?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
There was a newer bootloader, if I am not mistaken
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] buffer overflow:
Version for baseband is M8994F 2.2.37.21 and bootloader BHZ11m.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] phaleg:
I agree!!!

Could you add links for them in the OP please?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
Don't have them handy, factory image for the rescue
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] phaleg:
Ok, whenever you will have the chance,

could you put updated links to have bootloader, radio and so on latest version please?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
Next chance will likely be at the June security patch drop :)
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] phaleg:
Different issue which I would like to ask for help...

I am on the latest build and I realized that there was a new TWRP, so I flashed *.img with previous 3.1.0.0 to 3.1.1.0 but now cannot boot to recovery. (not from advanced reboot and not turning device on with 2 buttons).

Since I normally flash recioveries from previous one and I am not rooted atm

how could I fix it?

Thanks
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] prbassplayer:
Sounds like your recovery flash went wrong. Either the img you used was bad or something went wrong while flashing. I'd recommend dl new recovery img and replace using fastboot. Just a fyi I don't own this device, just guessing based on other nexus/android devices I've owned.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] phaleg:
In the end, I used [MENTION=894259]mskip[/MENTION] toolkit to save my a** :highfive:

It was weird that flashing went wrong, for the first time I downloaded twrp-3.1.1-0-bullhead.img.asc as well that should check for bad files?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] a8962383:
Home button issue

This ROM is great. So far I have found only one issue and that is the home navigation button. It doesn't work on the first tap right after unlocking the the phone. From the second tap, it works fine. Please note that I have enabled double tap to screen lock and long press to Google Assistant for Home button. Except that, everything seems in good shape. :)
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
Beta 0.26 is up, meet some SlimDoze additions by [MENTION=2033478]Yank555[/MENTION] ;)
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
Beat 0.27 is up, with June security patch. Links for vendor/radio/bootloader images are in the second post
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] phaleg:
That's amazing ^^

---------- Post added at 11:57 ---------- Previous post was at 11:48 ----------

Any preference in the flashing order related to rom and gapps as well?

For example, I would do

backup

wipe cache, system and dalvik

flash vendor

flash bootloader

flash radio

flash rom

flash gapps

is it correct?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
[MENTION=4750792]phaleg[/MENTION] b/l and radio are not ROM related and can be flashed anytime
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] phaleg:
I understand,

is that possible flashing sequence correct?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] asparaz43:
You can install the bootloader and vendor then the classic wipe and flash roms and gapps :good:
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] phaleg:
Is it ok to flash radio and b/l in TWRP?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] indian84:
You can't do that. Unless someone has made a flashable zip.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] asparaz43:
You can do it .... with the latest twrp you can install .img files ;)
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] phaleg:
So just to understand before I start...

I know that you can install img files with TWRP, so for example when I flash vendor, I flash a img file to vendor partition...

if I do the same with radio and bootloader, I expect that I can flash those img files to radio partition and bootloader partition? Am I right?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] buffer overflow:
Only vendor img can't flashed on TWRP because have specific partition. Radio & boot don't have that. Do not mess with that. Some guys make zip package for radio & bootloader for flash in TWRP, but i not recommend to try. Use fastboot.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
But you still can't flash those. Fastboot for the win :)
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] asparaz43:
Excuse me only twrp vendor :silly:
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] phaleg:
Ok, I have [MENTION=894259]mskip[/MENTION] toolkit and I should be able to do with it

(I've pro version)
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] buffer overflow:
[MENTION=4750792]phaleg[/MENTION] Is so easy with fastboot, but maybe you feel much comfortable with that tool. :D
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] shhnedo:
[MENTION=4750792]phaleg[/MENTION] Here's google's flash-all.bat:

PATH=%PATH%;"%SYSTEMROOT%\System32"
fastboot flash [COLOR="Red"]bootloader[/COLOR] bootloader-bullhead-bhz11m.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
ping -n 5 127.0.0.1 >nul
fastboot flash [COLOR="red"]radio[/COLOR] radio-bullhead-m8994f-2.6.37.2.21.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
ping -n 5 127.0.0.1 >nul
fastboot -w update [COLOR="red"]image-bullhead-n2g47w.zip[/COLOR]

BL goes first, then radio. Vendor image is inside the image-bullhead-n2g47w.zip, which goes last.

Personally, I don't know if the order if flashing the .imgs is specific, but that's how google does it, that's how I'd do it.

[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Nil253259:
I will tell you what i have tried..i assigned smart pulldown on middle swipe down gesture through Slim actions..but every time i do the gesture, settings FCs..may be I'm doing something wrong..

P.S. And nova doesn't need root for that..there is a bug post MM which causes the animation to be slow..like a slow motion version...to fix that Nova requires root
