Hi, I did clean flash of LinageOS. And it seem that I can't download pixel launcher from store, says: "your device isn't compatible wit this version". maybe someowe knows why? i did use it before on LineageOS

And also for some reason updater shows the same rom version for update. Why is that?

Adding the screenshots

observation about wireless data

I know there's been much discussion about whether or not LTE data works well or not, and since I've observed some apps seem to only connect or update over wifi, I did a little test.

I restored a twrp backup of the stock image, and tested weatherbug elite and the Amazon kindle app, and both behaved the same as under lineage os. They only update over wifi.

So it seems as if the problem is more hardware specific.

edit: moved my SIM to slot 1 and at least some apps will now update using cellular data that did not seem to previously. Weatherbug Elite does not - seems they stopped supporting the app some time ago - and I hate the new "free" version of weatherbug
[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] Alvarofuchu:
Mmm... Since the last version of TWRP now is 3.1 (if I'm not wrong), shouldn't the info be updated in the first page? Or should we keep on using 3.0.2 version? I read something about 3.1 for installing the ROM with a different files system, but I didn't understand it properly.

Hi,

If you have updated marshmallow, then you have to downgrade the marshmallow 6.0.1 to marshmallow 6.0 i.e base marshmallow of honor 5x. Then any custom rom will be install.
[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] MadCow809:
Thank you, I'm gonna give that method a shot.
[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] Alvarofuchu:
Whose business? I'm just speaking about the description of "how to install the ROM" en the first page of this thread. My question is... What's indicated is to use the last twrp version (indicating 3.0.2). Since 3.0.2 is not now the last version, should we use 3.0.2 or 3.1?

Sorry if I didn't explained myself correctly
[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] muradulislam:
Updated to 3.1 before the latest nightly and the update went smoothly. So no worries if you wanna upgrade.
[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] westenthor:
Can confirm. :good:

No problems when flashing actual nightly with updated TWRP 3.1.0.

You can still flash without even wiping anything before.

twrp error 7

I try to flash rom but get error 7... I found on internet that deleting the version check from the img script would fix the error but now i have error 6... any Ideas how to resolve it?

Its not posible to download and update newest ROM May 10, 2017 via OTA update. Message is: "Download of file is unsuccessful" !
[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] Guichinga:
Retry or make the download on your PC. I did the update yesterday without any issues. Sometimes the download server may be a bit overloaded and then a retry later may already fix your issue.
[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] Babazaneti:
I was wondering can any of the devs fix "Vibrate on answer" options. It was fine untill one of the past updates, and its not working anymore? Also, after i remove suggestion in settings menu, suggestions appear again after a while. So, can you fix that to please? :)

Don't you think the version check is there in the first place to avoid a wrong flash on an unsupported device? Please check the OP for supported device variants

Well yes but because what i checked on internet and here on the forums there should not be a problem.... I will get my cellphone spec tonight to try and get more information... I will post them here....

Hello,

At the weekend I could not set up my H5X after a Werkreset (over TWRP).

During the setup I got the error message that the setup assistant was finished.

The error always appeared in the same place, when asking whether you want to restore the mobile phone via Google or reinstall everything.

No matter what I chose, he was finished every time.

Current Nightly from 10.05.2017 / TWRP 3.0.2.0.

The same happened with the current Resurrection Remix OS from 07.05.2017 after a full-Wipe.

Had someone ever the same problem or knows someone why that is.

I had during installation both SIM cards and my SD card in the phone.

Update:

Lack of updates in this thread doesn't mean we were not working on it - so here is what we have achieved recently:

- We have merged our kernel to the latest stable 3.10.105 release - this increases security due to fixes being included

- We have closed a bunch of kernel security vulnerabilities - and a few more to come next week

- The browser was replaced with another (better, more updated) one - if you don't like it feel free to install another one via Play Store

Also feel free to check our official website @ http://www.lineageos.org regularly. A "What happened" is posted there every few weeks (This week: https://www.lineageos.org/Changelog-9/ ).

This week's build will be available in a few hours.

Have fun

Not sure if it's known or not, but the new browser, while sleek and very nice, doesn't allow you to move up a page. At least for me. Swiping up moves the page down, swiping down reloads the page. Tried it quickly and slowly and every speed in-between, and it's the same issue.

a) No discussions about Stock Rom! (Up- / Downgrade, ...)

b) No, this ROM is much worse than stock, thats why people flash it...

How long should the first boot after a dirty flash take? I've waited over 12minutes so far.. about to just hold power down and hope for the best....

updated through the updater...

another 12mins down... 24 minutes waiting on boot so far....

extremely non-modified system here... no root, no file manipulations, no themes, nothing modified.... what's the deal? this device was working beautifully for the first time in many months before this 'update'.

I don't see anyone else reporting issues with updating...?

After another 10 minutes I just held the power button down... give it another go I guess...

Error: 7

I've already searched the entire website and the Error 7 issues I have been having do not correlate to others error 7's.

Since I can't post an image, I'll write it out. When I go to install lineage- 14.1-20170517-kiwi-signed.zip, I get:

"E3003: Can't install this package (Wed May 17 03:35:24 PDT 2017) over newer build (Wed May 17 20:56:05 UTC 2017). Updater process ended with ERROR: 7 Error Installing zip file '/external_sd/lineage- 14.1-20170517-nightly-kiwi-signed.zip"

I am on 5.1.1 all stock, B130 KIW-l24, Rooted, TWRP ver. 3.1.1-0. I don't understand how I have a newer build when I am coming from bone stock. Any help would be appreciated.
[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] Dead_Dude:
Well, it never did boot properly, so I wiped and flashed with latest opengapps. Upon initial boot, the only keyboard available was Google voice typing.

Couldn't figure that one out, so I proceeded without setting up a Google account.

Downloaded and side loaded hackers keyboard. Set up Google account. Now I can disable voice typing and Gboard miraculously works.

[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] Dead_Dude:
I think everyone having these weird issues (including myself) got bad gapps for whatever reason.

I tried three different sized opengapps, all errored on me.

One resulted in boot loop. Micro or mini

The other two resulted in an unusable install where the only available keyboard is voice typing. Stock/Nexus & Full/Maximum

I wonder if having only a gigabyte free when updating could be related?

Just an observation; no gripe, no blame, no fault.

Why would they want to go out of their way to prevent users from downgrading? I can think of many, many times where I've had to downgrade, and stay at an old version for quite some time, while waiting for something to be fixed throughout CM's (now Lineage's) history. I just got down rolling back by Nexus 5X and all my N7s actually.

Thank you for your post though, I was getting ready to try and modify the update-script to make it so I could update my wife's Honor 5X, but it looks like I can just reflash the older TWRP and that will fix the Error 7 issue...
[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] droidbot1337:
i don't know why everyone is overreacting to this error 7 issue. the rollback twrp fix was suggested since back in november. i had this issue as well with another device and fixed it by a simple xda search back in december.

the devs already know of the issue and it seems they are getting annoyed so please just stop *****ing about it. if you cant do simple search and dont do proper twrp backups before you flash an update, then maybe you shouldn't be modding.
[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] OhioYJ:
Perhaps you meant to quote someone else? My primary complaint was that patch / code that caused all this issue is designed to prevent users from downgrading... What is the point in that? I've had to downgrade many times. As mentioned I downgraded, two types of devices this week because I did not like changes that were made. Ill advised changes happen all the time, that's why people need to be able to easily downgrade if need be. This is a change that just makes no logical sense to me. Even changes that I don't like that have caused me roll back to previous versions I can understand, this one I can not.

I take it the work around here is if you want to downgrade you just delete the BuildProp first? Or Modify the build.date in the BuildProp?

sorry, i should have phrased my opening statement better. anyway, i was just adding to your post. im currently on Resurrection Remix and was thinking of going back to LOS so i decided to check out the latest feedback. all the talk of the error 7 kinda got to me seeing as how this issue has a really easy fix.

i was hoping to see posts about bugs being fixed and incredible new features being implemented but sadly its more how to flash 101 which i honestly clutter these threads. thankfully i have an LOS changelog app that keeps me informed. anyway, sorry if i came off as a bit of an asshole OhioYJ. i meant no offense.

Do you mind if i ask you how on earth you got Andoid Auto working?

I've even reflashed back to stock before moving to LineageOS, which im on the Nightly for may 18th, and it still doesnt work.

Also, i was going to post a bug in JIRA about this, but i really don't know what information to include or how to fill out a bug properly. Anyone have advice or details i'd need?

That being said I guess if your display breaks and you cant see anything I should also care because you can't see "my" ROM anymore.

Read the first post, it clearly states two things:

a) you must be on a stock mm rom before flashing

b) anything stock related doesnt belong in this thread

So apart from the fact that every phone once had some stock rom installed this is not to be discussed in here

I have installed all weekly updates after publishing.

Just ram consumption is still exists.2days after last restarting the ram is almost near 70%.even with killed applications.

Anyone had the builtin Email program slowly gain huge amounts of cache? I don't use it, but I first noticed on my wifes Honor 5X as it gave her an error that she couldn't update anything because she was out of space. Email's cache had grown to 3.5 GB, while data was only 11 MB? My co-worker comes to me with her Nexus 5X (so this seems to be happening across all Lineage devices?) and says her battery is draining very quickly all the sudden and I look at it, and it's Email using most of the battery, cache was at 900 MB, her data was at 8 MB. Clearing the cache on both of these phones doesn't clear the emails, and seems to have no ill effects?

Clearing the cache temporarily fixed the issue. I've also split up her SD Card between internal and external storage and moved some of her apps to the SD card to help gain some space. However I'm still not sure why email grew to such a large size to begin with.

I know about the ram management. But the main results for me is: if i open 2 application inside each other and want to move between the phone goes laggy.

This problem was worsted in last 2months updates.
