Hey I wanted to use the recent swipo mod which enables zui's swipe to change apps in the ram. But for that there needs to be a custom activities section for the app which lets me choose a part of the app that enables the function (I suck at explaining sorry). Here I'm able to choose the app as a whole so when swipe the fingerprint sensor the app itself opens not the function the app enables... I dunno if you've used AEX, it used have that option in the hardware button settings.

So to summarise for release r12.1 I flash ROM, then Gapps, then restore data from r11.1, then reboot to system, then flash Magisk. Is that right?
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] abudabi:
Please make standalone next release, i bet that easier to make that, than read all those posts about troubles with installing

Also vanilla Chrome force crashes if use additional greenify settings, Dev Chrome working, back to AEX :\

After searching for 15+ hours, I've come to a conclusion that i can't edit number of tiles, yes i was able to find wakelock and and charging info settings but not for quick settings for notifications bar ,toggle the position of clock on status bar and ,their fonts and also pure z theme is not applying on nav. Bar buttons(all i need to apply it is because to change nav. Bar to resemble them more alike sony xperias(old user ,love their virtual button style, have seen jaguar on z1 ) one which i was able to do successfully in aex, is it due to incompatibility of this theme engine with any themes(big example is swift black or any else reason?)

Yes +1 advantage of this rom is virtual+ hardware button option which you've mentioned earlier which i wasn't able to find in any rom!?

I switched to jaguar because of its performance and more security and stability(I also love aex but recent update of changing its kernel make the device more hot and lagging(imho)

Hiccups and glitch that were earlier are gone magically!

I'm using afwell file with no internet problem just due to your move of adding in this rom (i separately flashed it on v12.1 )which i personally think is a big move and excellent move?One question more:- can we use afwell crashdod code zip present here in any other rom by flashing it ?

But at the end all my concern is very few customisation feature present(not that any of those useless or never used feature which always intervene with system, but rather good and useful extensions eg

Editing fonts on lockscreen ,edit no. Of rows and columns of qs tiles,Hide Clock/Date/Alarm text from lockscreen

Lockscreen Clock's Font customizations,StatusBar brightness control,Lockscreen Shortcut,Customize small QS Tiles,QS Tiles Animations,

Also sound output from the bottom speakers is very low compared to stock,aicp or aex

*Note that ,as I've mentioned earlier and will mention again(I'm not complaining)

Neither I'm scolding you nor I'm pointing you for your work,You know better how difficult is to create and maintain a rom, I'm just giving my opinions and suggestions

And also if these features will be available in next upcoming updates, i would be too grateful for all of us users and to this good rom!
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] optimumpro:
You can't use crashdod on any other rom, because you need a command to execute it in ram disk. Theme engine is different from Substratum and the latter will never be supported, because it contains Google Firebase, which spies on users. It also collects your contacts and sends them to no one knows where. Moreover, their 'privacy' policy tells you that you, not Substratum or Google, are responsible for obtaining consent from your contacts to share their info with Google.

I disagree that a lack of customizable fonts or screenlock shortcuts constitute insufficient customization. Shortcuts on lockscreen represent a security hole. Theme engine is a young development and it is already more secure than Substratum, which in my view is a trojan horse...

When can we expect the rom with new camera blobs?
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] prajwal998:
Firstly, i apologize if your are feeling offended!

Secondly, my main concern is not just fonts rather qs tile settings and many other customisable things that are present in other roms but not here

Ok, i got your point that lockscreen shortcuts are a threat on security {about substratum,, I'm following you since your jaguar kernels, 9th july, and today ,i know about substratum very well and i know the security risk of it because of you}

Theme engine:- it works sometimes , sometime not, or work with half things applied

If theme engine develops,no need of trojan horse, i and many other will surely consider it but it ll take time and I'm ready!

'One can't guarantee that if a rom has more customisation , it'll have more good over all performance and vice versa.'

All i want to suggest is some more customisation or tweaks (like qs tiles,status bar tweaks(whatever you can call them) to be present if you can make your own or take it from any sources and give them credits(****! I think it is not legit or is it?)

You may have seen many users eg. Resurrection remix( giving full respect and credit to hardwork of devs. Working on it,Hats off!!!) like"Hey look , I've this feature in my rom to make you scream and cry"But they themselves actually don't use them ever or don't understand its working

Useful to some, Waste for many!

But thats their speciality ( by giving a ton of customisation features)

And i was talking about that features (not all, rather important to many one and useful ones ) which if you are able to and think will be relevant to the common "flash and use users "to add in this rom.

So , in my conclusion, i just want to give my opinion not forcing you to do add them right in the next August built!

Still, I think you are not understanding my point clearly??:()or I'm not conveying it right:eek::crying:

(ok i got it no fonts ,no need of it, i was giving you just an example,you know better than me)

But what is the reason behind to not to include them?(qs tiles , status bar tweaks,qs quick pull down,qs animations etc etc...)

Security or something else?(interference with system)

If you don't want to include them, sure , no big deal but

Can you please elaborate them and what are the reasons to not to include them? And I'm sure you will

(Oh hoo, I'm just feeling that you are seeing my comments as disgrace or complaints :/ please forgive me!, Irespect tour work further you can judge~ )
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] optimumpro:
I am not offended at all. Next release will have more qs rows and columns. You can always edit qs by pressing a pen icon. Status bar and qs are virtually impossible to modify, because they've been moved into slim framework and are no longer a part of systemui or android framework. And I don't want to touch slim framework, because it has unmatched options for virtual and hardware buttons. As far as animations, I am reducing those to have a faster interface. I'd rather have an immediate response, than some kiddy animations (no offense). Also, keep in mind that Jaguar is not using CM/Lineage SDK, which slows down Android. Also, unlike AEX, which took ready to go Dirty Unicorn (a great development with all the features already there), made very few changes and called it AEX, I started with vanilla Android plus slim framework. So, everything you see in Jaguar today, was implemented by me.

About du, i don't know where are you from, but when i first tried it 1 month ago , it was better than any rom,even then time famous aicp but with one flaw, its utouch feature was not that responsive to mine device and Volte was not supported then( for reliance jio 4g network,in india)

So, i dropped it and went towards aicp(err....)

I still think sometimes , why many great rom went towards okeyish direction~~~:rolleyes:

I earlier thought that aex main contributor is davidevinavil so was of du, so whats the problem if he took features from du to aex by giving credits?(No grudge on any developers, please remember)

But things about zuk z2 xda are getting really messy:eek:

N i don't like these kind of things:crying:

Anyway, again a huge :good: for taking my opinion into act, Good to see that everything in Jaguar is implemented by only you and that's your Speciality;)

Hoping more features will be coming soon in jaguar : }
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] optimumpro:
With all due respect to David, but he was never the main contributor to either DU or AEX. People confuse working on device tree and pushing/pulling commits in kernel on one side and developing rom sources on the other. David has never brought any feature to either DU or AEX (taking everything from DU was done by AEX long before David). He works on device tree to make DU or AEX features available on Zuk Z2. He can't take DU features to AEX or visa versa. You are not going to find any commit by David in DU gerrit and you can see 1 or 2 of his commits in AEX all related to Z2. People think: Oh, look, AEX has Wakelock blocker or any other good feature, thanks to David. In fact, David has NOTHING to do with any of the rom's features. But he can apply newer blobs and port the latest driver from Lenovo, which make Z2's camera work better. .

If you are coming from another rom, flash r11, set up all your apps and save data in TWRP. Then when the new release is published, you will do a fresh install and then restore your data. There are build errors with some of August security patches. When those are resolved, r13 will be posted. Maybe later today, maybe tomorrow.

Working on a device tree cannot even remotely be compared to working on rom sources.. One can even say that the former is not a development at all. That's what people are confused about when they think: look how many features AEX has, thanks to David, while David has absolutely NOTHING to do with those features. Then this device maintainer/compiler (david) out of the blue opens his big mouth and calls others fake developers who use his 'hard' work. LOL.

Hey dev. As you have said always never RESTORE SYSTEM FROM TWRP~

Why is it so?(i think it'll create too many problems)

But let say , i before jumping towards custom rom, have backed up all my stock rom (data, system etc) in twrp (have done a backup in real)and wants to flash stock rom again~ so what will i do to flash it again?

Because system restoring will create errors

Or should i flash deodexed stock rom~

(Will it work as a pure stock zuk made rom?)

(If ever in future i want to relock bootloader, will that deodexed rom be enough?)

Is there any guide about it?

How to restore original system and relock bootloader on zuk z2 plus_....

Please don't mind about my lack of knowledge on this above stated topic~!
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] Magz Heaven:
Yes, I never said he brought those 'features' per se, but he IS one of the major contributor in making the ROMs useable in the first place. Just don't judge him base on what he said, there are times when we unintentionally utter things that are very ugly to listen to. He has done so much in making this device much stable in terms of custom ROMs. Drop the 'fake devs' and ****s. Just help each other to make the important things work out for each other. I'm pretty sure he didn't intend to hurt anyone.

On our Z2, you should always flash the rom clean and then restore data for that rom previously backed up in TWRP. If you want to relock bootloader, you should either flash with qfil or use a stock rom that replaces firmware and not all of them do. So, I wouldn't risk anything and just flash original rom with qfil.

2.isnt z2 nougat source released. So why is stock camera app not ported yet
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] capoooro:
Both problems are source related.

First - one part of camera app is inside zui framework, so is quite impossible to have a stand alone app.

Second - is zuk that use API 1 and not API 2. We can say that is a driver problem. We have blobs but not source hardware code.

Ok, guys. Every little problem has been resolved and tested. The rom is being rebuilt as we speak. This update will include:

1. EAS in kernel, credit to [MENTION=7030080]Star_king12[/MENTION]: but you still have Interactive, Nightmare and Impulse governors

2. Voltage table for cpu cores, so you can increase voltage to burn or decrease to have random reboots (up to you) :)

3. Latest camera drivers ported to kernel and rom sources

4. Increased rows and columns in QS

5. August security patches

6. All network choices in Cellular menu (like in testing menu) and your selections will hold

[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] optimumpro:
It is entirely possible that r13 is standalone. However, the issue with simcard not recognized on clean install may be related to encryption. In other words, if you are NOT encrypted, you probably can flash r13 stand-alone. If you are encrypted, then there is problem with fresh install, as on boot, you can't make calls. This is my guess, because people on other roms were complaining their simcard was not recognized on encrypted device. So, to anyone, whose data is not ecnrypted: try to flash r13 clean, reboot and check if you can make calls to confirm my guess...
