Hello!

Do custom roms support Moto Display / active lockscreen? I mean this:

[IMG="Moto Display"]http://i.imgur.com/dsE7vZ1.png[/IMG]

Also, is battery life better or worse on custom rom, f. i. CyanogenMod?

Cheers!

Custom roms do not support Active Display.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flipz77:
Can't you guys just read existing threads.

Custom ROM = google now = NO moto voice, which means no custom launch phrase, no advanced commands (such as "what's up" to read notifications aloud) and, most important. no voice activation with screen off (even worse if you don't live in an English-speaking country, thanks google for crippling android this much)

Custom ROM = Ambient Display = NO moto display. What's the difference? The latter uses less energy, it's more convenient to use (information is streamlined rather than being a b/w lockscreen which lights up way too easily) and it acts as a notification led (it will blink until notifications are read or cleared)

Clear enough?

[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bzeimen:
Custom ROMs do not have any of the Moto baked-in features, but often have similar equivalents,

On 7.1 CM14 using the build.prop tweak to get the Google Assistant, you can use "OK Google" from any screen

On any version of CyanogenMod 5.0+, you can have a moto display-alike feature using wave to wake in Android's Ambient Display feature

Installing Android Auto from the Play Store gives you a better experience than Moto Actions's driving mode. It is a dedicated driving screen with easy shortcuts to music and maps. This can be set to auto-launch when you connect to a specific bluetooth device as well. Combine this with the Pixel build.prop tweak and you have a good driving interface.

Do not Disturb hours based on calendar events and set times is available in CyanogenMod (at least 7.1, maybe lower versions too) under the Do Not Disturb setting in the settings app.

Chop Chop for flashlight and Twist for camera are also available on CM 6.0+ in the Gestures section of the settings and can be tied to any camera app.

I thought of making a new thread because although I found a lot of threads asking similar questions, I didn't find answers that were as in-depth or complete as I'd like. So I'll just hijack this one since it seems somewhat active :P

I get it that none of the Moto features are available on Custom ROMs, I mean that's what you'd expect from a custom ROM, that it doesn't contain any of the vendor stuff. I also know that there are alternatives to (most?) of them out there. (I think I'd like to compile a comprehensive list at some point, since information seems rather scattered).

What I don't know and am curious about is:

- Why can't we just get (sideload) them on any ROM?

- Do these alternatives make use of the special sensors / auxiliary processors in the X-something (whatever Motorola called their fancy chip+extra sauce package) - ie do they work properly and/or drain the battery?

My reasoning behind these questions (why I'm genuinely curious) is: I thought Motorola released the sources for this device - so we should be able to make the "sensors and stuff" work; and then it ought to be just a matter of stealing the APKs from somewhere / making that work with the alternative solutions.

So is it actually not possible or has just noone spent the effort to make it work (is it difficult / a lot of work?)

Thanks for your insights
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flipz77:
I appreciate the way you wrote this, but there are a couple of substantial differences I mentioned earlier. Not to be an.al, but I think these are pretty significant to the user experience.

First of all, android's ambient display is tied to the system lockscreen and it's much more prone to accidental unlocking; it will also stop blinking after a couple minutes or less, so it's not a real substitute for a notification LED.

Moto Voice is simply irreplaceable. It's much more reliable than google assistant, it's got more useful features and it doesn't greet you with a stupid wannabe-human robotic phrase.

The headache of making Assistant "work" (sort of, because it will never have the efficiency of Moto Voice) is honestly not worth it.

And, sorry sir, but "from any screen", assuming you can get it working in the first place (thanks google for making android fragmentation worse!), doesn't mean "with screen off, locked, unplugged". It's not a minor difference for someone who bought a moto x for its features!

Thank you for your interest, but it's still half-baked.

I'm staying with what I think is the best setup for keeping this device up to date without losing features.

Stock 6.0 firmware, krait kernel and xposed with N-ify are cutting it for me and I'd recommend it to anyone ;)

Downsides? Only one, but it's not minor by any means: security updates :c

Still stuck at May 2016
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] songs354:
yeah you're right i know that...i miss moto display & moto voice pretty bad :p but you still get the chop chop and twist gesture on cm or cm based roms, anyways so i was trying a way to make it work but you saw that post right, it is possible but you'll be needing a system dump all those frameworks and stuffs and then the source code of cm or cm based roms and coding etc so its kinda time consuming i guess and so i wanted someone who knows more than me or an expert

so yeah i do miss it but if you try custom roms or for example RR rom on your beloved victara then you get a ton of features and some tricks to make it look cool & stuffs then probably you wouldn't want to go back to stock just try it once :p and also you get security updates plus you get every android updates as well as new features

and i've been using GA on my victara running RR rom with some cool tricks like i said and trust me it does feels really good

you might wanna check on this thread too incase if you wanted to try or wondered :p

[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] teostar:
Hi, I'm new here however I've read on a few rom threads about an echo on voice calls. Today I started experiencing the echo for the 1st time and I think I have and idea what's the cause.

I am running freedomos ce v1.10 but I've seen the issue as a known bug on other ROMs and it doesn't affect everyone.

I think it affects those of us who flash the pixel dialer, maybe other dialers as well but in my case it's the pixel dialer.

Why do I think so?

Today it started, i received a call and I noticed the call screen was the default phone app screen not the pixel screen. (I've disabled the stock app). but somehow its still activating when there's an incoming call.

Also after accepting the call I notice 2 phone icons in the status bar suggesting maybe that there's 2 phone calls active.

I've checked and the stock phone app is still disabled so there may be an OS level trigger still allowing it to accept incoming calls.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] dpryor88:

[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] siankatabg:
In which threads you have read about the echo issue? This issue is mainly present on the nougat roms and it's due to the audio hal, however workaround was found and now everything is fine(when you flash the fix ofc). I have never had this issue on MM roms and especially on stock(ye, freedom rom is stock based), so maybe the problem you have is really somewhere with the apps you use. And can you tell how did you find that you have the issue?
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] teostar:
As I stated I noticed that incoming calls seemed to come in the stock phone app not the pixel dialer. But because the stock app is disabled think that may have been the issue.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] teostar:
Here's what happens for me.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] siankatabg:
Do you have root? If yes, just go to the system folder, find the app that you don't want to use and rename it(add .back at the end), so you can revert to it later if you want, then reboot :)
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] teostar:
I'm not sure which is the stock phone app. Apart from "Google dialer" there's "OPincalui", "phonesky", "telecom" and "telephonyprovider"

I'm not sure which is the actual phone app.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] F4uzan:
I would eliminate Phonesky (Play Store), and TelephonyProvider from the list because those are not directly tied to the phone app.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] gbegus:
I have the same problem. Freedom OS, stock kernel and google dialer and contacts....
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] siankatabg:
Actually you should be able to see the app icon when you go to the folder, so try with some other file manager that support this function. I can bet that OPIncallUI is the dialer, but to be sure, try with other manager :)
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] teostar:
OK, with solid explorer I see this. It gets even more confusing...
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] siankatabg:
Rename the OPIncallUI, don't touch the other apps, that should do the job :)
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] teostar:
OK, just rename the apk, not the actual folder?
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] siankatabg:
Just the .apk, rename it to .apk.back and if you get problems just rename it back to .apk :)

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wild_dog:
Hi.

I recently got a HTC one M8 second hand from my father.

I decided that i wanted my next phone to be rooted, so i started working on that before anything else.

I have followed a youtube guide located at /watch?v=wpFpmAQa-40 (new user, cant post links) to get my phone rooted.

Unlocking the bootloader went fine, and i managed to boot into the OS from then on and managed to make a back-up with TWRP while unrooted.

Getting into the OS with the bootloader unlocked, i downloaded SuperSU-v2.37 onto the phone.

However, once i tried to use TWRP to install this it went wrong.

After installing this, the phone would no longer boot, and get stuck on the initial white boot screen with the HTC logo.

i tried to restore the backup i made using TWRP, but to no anvil.

The bootloader shows *** Software status: Modified *** at the top.

I suspect that becaus this flag is set, the OS reuses to load.

Some more info: the phone in question is from Vodafone, and i used the AT&T/T-Mobile/international TWRP recovery from the site mentioned in the above youtube video at link (site here)/cwmtwrp-recoveries/ (again, new user, can't post links).

As such, it had a bunch of vodafone stuff (like a vodafone boot and shutdown animation), so i also suspect it has some form of carier lock, though i have not been able to find a guide which mentions a vodafone lock, only AT&T, Verison and Sprint.

I someone know how to get my phone working again (preferably rooted, but at this point i would also settle for unrooted, locked and s-on).

I don't really want to go messing with s-off since i aparently already borked this up.

EDIT:

OK, so i tried to do a restore again, seems that restoring does indeed work, but getting SuperSU does not.

I'l look for a more up to date version of superSU.

EDIT2:

It went even wierder now. I can no longer download files on the phone, nor can i transfer files from the computer.

EDIT 3:

Well, didn't fix it, but got aound it. got an sd card in the phone, downloaded SuperSU from the site, and installed it with TWRP from the sd card. access to the internal storage is still blocked/buggy.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] todorkaravalchev:
First! - The flag ****MODIFIED**** shows when you have custom recovery

and second - in my opinion the best thing you can do is to lock the bootloader using "fastboot oem lock" when in bootloader and then instantly reflash the phone using RUU which should be the Vodaphone version and then use KingoRoot to gain root. Use the PC Root method!
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
That Youtube guide is outdated. Its says published Feb 2016, but I thinks that is misleading. I believe the video was made much longer ago. The phone being used has KitKat OS version from the M8 release back in May 2014. And as such, the root method is just as horribly outdated.

If your phone was on Marshmallow OS version, the general process in the video is okay, but you need should use TWRP 3.0.2 and a relatively current stable version SuperSU (which is currently 2.78, that's right 41 versions newer than what you used). TWRP version and SuperSU version is dependent on OS version, but what I"ve stated probably applies to most folks at this point (since Marshmallow was released some time ago, Dec 2015).

Using outdated SuperSU version is the most common reason for no boot after trying to root. And flashing the proper version SuperSU is the fix. So good work figuring it out.

---------- Post added at 11:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:00 AM ----------

This would be an incorrect assertion. Software: Modified has no bearing (in itself) on whether the phone boots into OS or not. As another mentioned, it just means a custom recovery is installed, and/or system modifications (root, etc.) have occurred.

---------- Post added at 11:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:05 AM ----------

Also, nice work (honestly) making a TWRP backup before trying root. Many folks skip this simple (yet critical) step, and then are in a panic on how to recovery after a failed root attempt.

---------- Post added at 11:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:07 AM ----------

While technically valid, this is overly complicated solution; considering the fix was to flash the proper version SuperSU (and bootloader already unlocked, and TWRP installed).

Also, while kingroot works for some folks, others have had issues with it. Rooting with the more common method (TWRP and SuperSU) virtually

always

works, as long as the proper version SuperSU is used.

Just some constructive comments. Your contribution is appreciated nonetheless.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wild_dog:
And i apriciate the help, todor.

Although i have gotten this working, i have run into some small things (don't you always... SIGH).

I have not gotten the block on coppying files to the internal memmory fixed yet, but for what i wanted to do (remove factory deafault bloatware) it apears i have to do s-off anyway, and i suspect doing so will fix it.

So that will be a nice project for next weekend.

I do have to point out though, that king root, which you referenced, in a listing i found, currently does not support the HTC one M8 with android 6.0, which i have.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
This may be a matter of internal storage being corrupted. In TWRP, try going to WIPE, select "Format data" and see if that helps.

Obviously, you will lose your data, so backup before hand, accordingly.

Incorrect, you don't need s-off to delete bloat apps. The issue is that the system is write protected (from deleting bloat apps, etc.) on this device, even with root. You need the kernel mod to disable write protection, in order to delete bloatware.

The wp_mod zip attached to the following thread should work on most or all Android 6 Sense 7 ROMs. But backup your current ROM in TWRP before flashing, just in case it doesn't work properly:

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] todorkaravalchev:
I'm not so sure about what I'm about to say, but if you have root and use this file manager called "Root Browser" you should be able to delete the bloat. The only thing that you have to do before you delete something is to mount the /system partition -rw (read, write) and there was such option tn the file manager that I told you about. And make sure you have busybox installed for this option to work.
