Can someone help me out please. I am on the latest lineageOs 14 and for the past couple of days my wifi is giving me problems. It keeps reconnecting and disconnecting constantly.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] afef:
hi people ,Can someone upload

lineage-14.1-20180919-nightly-axon7-signed.zip ?

and the last bootstack universal for naugat

am stuck on

thanks
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] jimbo77:
That's a known issue. Read the first pages of the thread
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] edfuhr1:
I have build 2 of lineage working and booting, unfortunately I'm one of those unlucky few where no sensors are working. I have tried several times to flash the b29 zip from zta's website with no luck. I just get a bad file type error while trying to flash in twrp. I'm on latest twrp build with an U device. Do you have to extract the b29 zip prior to flashing to downgrade?
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] machetie:
I don't know how you managed to get it working!!!

I'm running 2/2 version and tried to install multiple themes, but after applying to all apps I get forced reboot.

It works once after applying the theme and rebooting the phone but the minute you open any app it just reboots and then it reboots in a loop. It starts up you can unlock the phone and get to the home screen and then reboots.

Anyone have a solution?

Its a waste of the amoled screen without the dark theme

Edit: Looks like it has to be LOS 14.1 compatible theme for one, 2. If the theme is not compatible to the OS and runs in legacy then disabling android system theming helps Substratum. I installed swift dark theme which is compatible with LOS 14.1 and everything works now.

Just my 2 cents

.

Maybe try fresh install, running 2/2 version freshly installed without the bug on A2017G.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] jimbo77:
If you downloaded the zip from ZTE website, then yes, you need to unpack it and flash what's inside once unpacked to get back to stock B29

What's the bar next to the Bluetooth symbol in the status bar when you are connected? Is it battery level of device connected?

"So what you want me to do 'bout that?"
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] cms062407:
Yes, there is a zip within the zip. You are looking for a file called "update.zip"

Like I said. I'm not rooted, I don't have my bootloader unlocked and I dont have TWRP yet. I need my stock recovery to get that. I cant flash it.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Twiggy000b:
So, i replaced recovery.img with twrp, i do NOT reccomend this... (unless placing the update.zip in internal storage and just flashing, dont wipe.) Messed up my internal storage and had to use axontool to get recovery back.

[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] EasyTiger6x13:
Absolutely, the only issue I've encountered is the speakers and that will be fixed, everything else runs absolutely perfectly that I can tell and the battery life is vastly improved as well.

One more question though. I'm on b29, how do I unlock the bootloader? I don't see any clear guides on
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Teet1:
Has anyone experienced low signal with this rom? I don't get a single bar at home where I used to get full bars. LTE is also slower than usual so it's not a visual thing
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] doyou37:
If anything, I experience the opposite.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] bkores:
You have to downgrade the firmware to B20 and then apply the B20_boot ota. The entire kit and instructions is in the Official TWRP thread.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] EasyTiger6x13:
[MENTION=4911249]Unjustified Dev[/MENTION] two quick questions for you, I'm genuinely curious. The speaker issues with this ROM, do you yourself know what the problem is and just can't fix it without the proper tools and without the help of ZTE/Others, or is it something you can't figure out and need the help with? I remember reading that it's ZTE that has to fix it so what exactly does that mean?

Also, you mention that the kernel is now more streamlined with the OP3 or more in sync or in line with it or something? Does this mean we could use or import kernels from the OP3 to this phone in the future?

Thanks.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] haerwu:
I sometimes have just Back button. Disabling on screen buttons sometimes help, sometimes not. Not found why.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] haerwu:
Other issue: my primary sim card was not recognised yesterday. Sometimes it was but pin entry pad was gone after 2 or 3 digits.

So I exchanged simcard to brand new one. It works. Or not. Or works.

And this is huge issue as this is my primary number.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] TheBigG:
that is not a issue of the ROM. That problem apears on stock after some time too. Seems to be a construction issue, if you get your SIM with luck the right way in the phone than it does work flawless.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] bullet25:
So right now, if we don't have LOS installed at all the proper steps would be:

Wipe

Install bootloader/Modem

Install the first 1/27 build

Install the 2/2 build

reboot

or do I need to reboot between the 1/27 and 2/2 flashes?
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] haerwu:
Hm. Then why I do not have it with other sim cards? UK Three nano works. UK Tesco nano works. BE Lycamobile nano (cut from micro) works.

PL Orange nano (cut from micro) works or not, PL Orange nano works or not... And that cut from micro one worked since I bought phone.

PL Orange nano works fine in other phone...
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] WesTD:
don't have to flash first build. they are full ROM, so install second build directly.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] NadavCE:
That's exactly what I did, no reboot. Actually, what I did was even more convoluted, as I have the G model:

Downgraded to B03 from B08.

Followed the A2017G guide to flash TWRP and unlock BL.

Flashed Nougat BL/Modem.

Flashed 1st build (1/27).

Flashed 2nd build (2/2). No reboot between the three flashes!

Lineage now working flawlessly (except for the media playback issue, which I don't mind).
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] bullet25:
Unjust said the second build had a bug and to not clean flash. Dirty flash was okay though. I just don't know if not rebooting between the two flashes actually counts as a dirty flash or not though.

Wait you say that crossflashing OP3 kernels works? Any source on that? This would be news to me, I can't really believe that...
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] jimbo77:
I don't think this is doable, different drivers, mount points etc... Probably if the kernel is alligned to CAF it will be easier to port some of their stuff over but not the entire Kernel. I'm gonna wait for unjustified to release his kernel sources to see if we can port some of the OP3 stuff over :)
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] nolimit78:
Nope, It'll cause boot loops.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] TheBigG:
because it is just half a millimeter or less why it doesn't work in this phone. So you can have luck that after some attempts it will work and work than constant, or it will work for a short amount of time, till there was a little force to the phone. Or it will just not work and you will have to put the SIM in again and again.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] weustenbakker:
Rom 27/01 is running smooth as butter.

Only one problem0 i've encrypted my phone with a password.

I can boot perfectly with that password, but i cant backup or flash anything in TWRP without a password. None of the previous passwords work including default_password.

Should i format data again and factory reset?

Yeah, because of this mobile signal is eating battery than it usually would. It's not a significant battery loss though but its still going through the roof.

I'm also experiencing an issue with USB. I'm sure its been noted before as the daemon timing out. USB doesn't work at all and only charges until I reboot the phone. Then it works again.

Well I have the option selected, can't tell if the call I just got was via WiFi or the network. It said HD next to the callers #.. So I'm thinking that was voLTE actually. But the option is there for me and I can toggle it et cetera
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] doyou37:
Turn airplane mode on then turn on WiFi and try making the call
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] *mj13*:
Good call. I did that and the call does not initiate, I get the dialog that the phone is in airplane mode.. So looks like it may not be working.

I'll try later with kernel in permissive see if it works then.

Update: no difference with kernel in permissive mode.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] doyou37:
Oh that might just be the phone app doing a check for airplane mode and declining to even attempt it. Not sure how else to test other than being in a bad signal area then? It probably does the same check if you manually turn off the sim

[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] jawz101:
I don't know if that's a bug.

http://www.pcworld.com/article/2594...ice_quality_coming_soon_to_your_4g_phone.html

LTE is a data-only band unless your carrier supports VoLTE which is like a high-def phone call. Besides, you're screwing yourself on reception if you mess with preferred bands. Telcos own mixed equipment and even make agreements to use each other's networks to economically provide coverage. Limiting to the fastest band isn't as good as letting your phone pick the best signal wherever you are at the moment.

[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] gpz1100:
Please clarify, where *EXACTLY* are you making the change to lte only? In settings/cellular networks/preferred network type, or in the *#*#4636#*#* menu?
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] machetie:
Yes through settings/cellular networks/preferred network type.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] gpz1100:
Depending on the rom, that sets the network differently than LTE ONLY through the *#*#4636#*#* menu. In the setting menu, LTE settings sets the network mode to lte/gsm(auto), which means lte with gsm/hspa/wcdma fall back.

I believe in this rom, the LTE only sets it to the correct, LTE only mode, with no fall back to the other modes.

You can verify this by setting the respective mode in settings, then go to the *#*# menu, scroll down to preferred network. You'll see the current setting. Don't make any changes in this hidden menu unless you understand what you're doing!!

I'm getting a weird problem. First, I'm so happy that my exFAT microSD card works in LOS. It didn't work back in CM13 and I never bothered to format it to another format (it was formatted by the stock ZTE firmware).

I tried to restore my apps using Titanium Backup, and oddly, it only shows about 50 of my 150 or so apps. When I checked the backup folder, a lot of the files had invalid characters at the end of their name. I thought they were corrupted, but I was able to boot into TWRP and copy everything over to my computer fine with everything still intact. So I'm pretty sure it's the OS having a problem reading those files.
