[MENTION=599722]niaboc79[/MENTION] Hello again :) I really like the XZ2 features in this build! Great work and I really appreciate it!

I have a quick question here, would you consider making the text size of traffic monitor adjustable? I find it a little bit too thin and small to look at, it would be really lovely if there could be an option to adjust the text size. I am sure that this would be beneficial for some other uses as well :) Again, I really appreciate your awesome work!

I've been using this method since Nougat, and it still works on v4.0:

https://xdaforums.com/nexus-6p/themes-apps/mod-navbar-height-changer-android-nougat-t3447956

It doesn't apply instantly tho, I restarted system UI, and rotated my screen as well, and then navbar disappeared. It just takes time to apply, good that it still works ;) Hope it's useful to you and whoever wants to hide navbar.

[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] niaboc79:
Guys, before somebody ask, you will notice that sometimes you're not able to slide to unlock if you try to unlock immediately after an ambient display notification. This is because XZ2 doesn't support double tap to wake.

If you have that issue, wait a few second before to double tap or use power button to unlock.
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Pandemic:
Nah all works fine :) if it wasn't working i told my bro [MENTION=599722]niaboc79[/MENTION] in private when i was using the test version but nope all was good except change systemui to white what was crashing but that ls fixed in this final form of v4. So the problem lays down by yourself ;)

[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Darren_J:
Great that it worked for you too! I had a hard time struggling to get this to work when I first tried it on Oreo too. Previously I tried all methods to apply it until I accidentally rotated my screen and it worked, but I didn't realize that it was because of rotating. It worked right after I rotated my screen so I learned lol, it's great that we can still hide navbar this way :cool:

Cheers!
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Mazellat:
Yes "Ambient Display" and "Tap to Wake Up" aren't used together. I tried to wait a few second but no luck, tap to wake doesn't work if ambient display on. So we must to choose; ♦ Tap to Wake or ♦Ambient Display :)

hello guys! for me it wont work. Flashed 4 diferent ftf.99 Flash recovery,flash existenz,drm,magisk,safetynet. when it should enter to setup my phone,bang: reboot.

Guys, sorry for my english, but how must work ambient dislpay? Only when notification came? Sometimes when i lifted my phone ambient work without notification? 1-2 times i press power button and i see ambient display, not lockscreen. Mb who has instruction for this ambient display?

[MENTION=599722]niaboc79[/MENTION], meybe you can port camera from xz2(version 2+)?
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] jitz975:
CHeck this post. Already replied. https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=76070123&postcount=2792

lift to wake won't work. It only works for notifications. Lift to wake is kernel related and there is no double tap to wake on XZ2. Double tap to wake works only on ambient display for XZ2 and it is different for our device.

And my personal opinion, there is no point in using ambient display on XZ, which is for always on display :p

Which problem ?

Flash fw 99 with flashtool and follow instructions -__-
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] esps:
In my case, I always use this orden:

1- Flash latest Oreo ftf with Flashtool.

2- Flash latest TWRP in recovery partition.

3- Reboot in recovery Wipe Data, Cache and Dalvik/ART Cache.

4- Flash the patch.

5- Flash Magisk.

6- Flash Safety net patch.

7- Flash the DRM fix. (always the last... if I flash first fo all... I get bootloop)

[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] DrJoint1991:
I did follow steps from OP and worked without any issues. Also added Pandemic mod as a last step. I always do everything without booting. First boot always done after all steps are finished.
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Pandemic:
Flash drm fix 1st then magisk and then safetynet patch after eachother without reboot and after those zips then reboot ;)

Hey Niaboc79. Once again, great rom (patch). Really appreciate you taking your time to release your work.

I've run into another issue. I have a 64GB microSD card in my phone. If I go into the "storage" setting and tap on the SD card, the settings UI crashes. I don't have another microSD card on me to replicate this. This is occurring on v4.0.

Here's the logcat. I think I copied the relevant info; please let me know if it looks like it's missing anything. The output file was large and this seemed like the most pertinent.

I had to do a clean install for this one to fix the storage issue of F8332 variant not showing the whole 64GB storage but it was totally worth it. The new update with this mod runs the smoothest by far among the Oreo patches you've released. Thanks niaboc79! :good:

The only issue I've encountered so far is that the subtratum themes I previously have is no longer supporting this update version even with the help of andromeda for some reason. I'll try to get a fix for that and post answers here for others as well once I have it.

After Existenz Oreo 2.0.0 released, and so on Oreo 3.0.0, I used well with Uri-Bank app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wooribank.pib.smart&hl=ko)

But as soon as I flash Existenz Oreo 4.0.0, it doesn't work.

Well, as you know I used this app with O 2.0.0 & 3.0.0.

Although I followed official install instruction and passed safetynet tast(google play store recognize my device accepted(certification), this app(https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wooribank.pib.smart&hl=ko) doesn't run at all.

Well, I'm sure I check this app for magisk hide list but it doesn't work with only on O 4.0.0 .

While I was using O 2.0.0 and O 3.0.0 it worked well, but after I started to use O 4.0.0 I can't use this app, unfortunately...

Is there anyone who know the reason I can't use this app?

Well, of course, I wrote comment for app review, and I believe I can't find reasonable solution here. Thank you.

I'm totally on this with you.. I was never really concerned about these security updates, while the patches prevented me from using Xposed, what a bummer. As you mentioned so, is there a way I can flash your 4.0 and even future patches on .75 firmware? Is the kernel the only essential difference among these patches? It would be really awesome to have Xposed with your latest patches! I don't really care about fw updates as long as it's not Oreo8.1 update lol.
