[Wileyfox Storm] Zugschlus:
Hi,

two weeks ago, my Storm received an OTA update with Android 7, moving away from CyanogenOS to something with a Wileyfox label. The phone continued to work for two days, and then simply stopped dead in its tracks. Rebooting brought me to the point where I could enter the unlock PIN, but immediately after my home screen is displayed, the device stops dead and eventually reboots after a few minutes. Lather, rinse, repeat.

I opened a ticket with Wileyfox support ten days ago, and have never heard back from them other than the automated message that a ticket was opened. So i need to help myself. To make things worse, I haven't done a backup in months. The bootloader also is still the default one from Wileyfox, as I was unable to unlock the boot loader to install TWRP when I got the device a year ago and never bothered again. Therefore the prioriy is to get the device into a state that allows me to back up my data before doing a factory reset (and probably moving on to lineage OS in the process).

I can get the device into the bootloader (kipper-N-g2253387) and into an "Android Recovery Wileyfox/Storm/kipper 7.1.1/N6F27C/83dbe1d738", and the device seems to be fine in this state. So I reckon that the hardware seems generally fine and that I have a software problem.

As I haven't been able to find the original factory image on the Wileyfox site and my question has stayed unanswered, I did some research and found a file named kipper-7.1-TOS125B (fastboot).zip on the network. When I unpack this, it looks like an Android image. Flashing from an SD card didn't work ("Failed to mount /sdcard: No such file or directory"). adb sideload makes the device spew a few messages including "E: footer is wrong".

So I tried fastboot erase system, fastboot flash system system.img, which did something that took the appropriate time to flash the device, but the behavior didn't change: Bootup until the lock screen, displaying the home screen after entering the PIN, and then dead, eventually a reboot.

I did not try anything more radical since I'd really really like to save my data first. Is there any way to do so?

Please advise, thanks in advance.

Greetings

Marc

have you notice about this problem?
[Wileyfox Storm] Zugschlus:
I saved my data with TWRP booted to RAM and then upgraded to LineageOS. That solved the issue for me.
[Wileyfox Storm] isla_blanca:
Sure, i do the same but lineage have more problem or no feature...like

BT problems in whatsapp audio recording and bt disconnect when using second sim

Haven't switch for turn on/off single sim ( important for me because second sim is only for work )

Battery drain, with lineage my battery dead at middle afternoon ( using 2 sim, bt, data connection ON, Moderate use ).

Sometimes reboot....

Actually with wileyfox os 7.1.1 have no problem but no root and no twrp :(

Governors only for XPerience project

Alessa:

A less aggressive and more stable ondemand modified by TeamMex. A good compromise between performance and battery. It can be used with the complementary hotplug governor.

This governor is a balance between performance and battery.

XPerience:

The governor aim for an “ideal frequency”, and ramp up more aggressively towards this freq and less aggressive after. It uses different ideal frequencies for screen on and screen off, namely awake_ideal_freq and sleep_ideal_freq. This governor scales down CPU very fast (to hit sleep_ideal_freq soon) while screen is off and scales up rapidly to awake_ideal_freq when screen is on. There’s no upper limit for frequency while screen is off.

This governor is a balance between performance and battery.

Ascarex TCP congestion driver:

My new TCP congestion driver called ascarex

Ascarex employs end-to-end bandwidth measurements to set cwnd and ssthresh after packet loss.

The probing phase is as the original Reno .

Have a modified control mechanism for use with large congestion windows.

A table indicates how much to increase the congestion window when an ACK is received.

ROM June 2nd

Everything working normally. Very stable, beautiful icons, nice visual.

Bugs:

* Icon that sits next to the brightness bar, which toggles between Automatic / Manual does not work. You must manually change the settings.

* Magisk works, but root does not. Soon the ALESSA does not work.

To make it work you need to flash the "addons-arm-signed.zip": https://download.lineageos.org/extras

After doing the ROOT, ALESSA does not change at startup the CPU and I / O parameters, even marking the option. But, it can start "entropy" and "virtual memory" normally.

[General Questions and Answers] Pawprints1986:
I've been starting to look into adding ram to one of my devices by using an sd card. But, can you still use the rest of the sd card as regular storage at the same time? I keep all of my photos on my external, and ringtones, notifications, many things.

I'd love to figure out dedicating part of an sd card as ram, while still using the rest of it as regular storage

I looked around a bit, and I've seen YouTube tutorials about using sd as memory... But none mentioned using as regular storage at the same time.

Anyone more experienced who could share further info would be awesome :) or if there's some place better I should be reading, feel free to share that link with me too
[General Questions and Answers] Pawprints1986:
Can anyone help with this??
[General Questions and Answers] Pawprints1986:
Still need help with this... As far as my research shows, you can only see your sd card within your phone and can't use an sd card reader with your sd card as windows won't see it.

Is there some way to allow windows to see it as well as having it partitioned for ram??

I'd really really appreciate the help on this!!
[General Questions and Answers] out386:
If the first partition is fat32/exfat, both android & windows will recognize it. The 2nd partition can be the swap.
[General Questions and Answers] Pawprints1986:
Thanks for the reply :)

I did try that idea, but to put it into the phone, at least the rohesoft test program only saw the partition meant for storage. In this case I used a 16 gig (which is actually about 14 gig), I decided to set aside 2 gig for the swap, but that test program only saw the regular storage partition of about 12 gigs. How would I set it so that the ram program will see the second 2 gig partition as well? I tried them both as fat32, is that a bad plan?
[General Questions and Answers] Pawprints1986:
I have a new observation... My phone, running 4.0.4 does not see any swap files. My tablet running 5.1.1 does see swap files, using the exact same sd card. First as fat 32 and tried 2nd as ext4. Is there another option that will work for ice cream sandwich??
[General Questions and Answers] Pawprints1986:
I haven't tried it yet but would ICS see ext3 or ext2 better?
[General Questions and Answers] Pawprints1986:
Officially can't get my phone to see the other partition at all!! I can get swapper to create a swap file on the *same* partition as I want to use for media only!! I thought the whole point was that only part of your card was dedicated to ram use?

To go into recovery and go into mounts and storage, it shows unmount sdcard, which means it is already currently mounted. That was why I thought maybe my tablet could see a swap partition but my phone could not. That theory is garbage now as they're both mounted. I can't even manually create a swap file on the 2nd partition in my pc cuz the computer won't see it except for in the mini tool !

I'm getting so frustrated. I'm so afraid to do so unpartitioned and run the risk of files like irreplaceable pictures deleting themselves in favor of ram space.

Is this just plain not possible??? Help....

I can't even see the ext3 in es file explorer, or even as a choice to have the roesoft tool manually create/test a swap file there

I'm running out of ideas that I have any clue at all of what to do. Could *really* use the help....
[Xposed General] organophosphate:
Presuming no Xposed framework will ever be available for Android N or later, what hardware would you buy today? I will not run an Android version without Xposed (due to the need for XPrivacy). Therefore, I seek opinions on the best available, future-proofed hardware to run Xposed. For example, it seems I should still be able to buy a new OnePlus 3T, nuke the Nougat it presumably ships with, and "upgrade" down to Android 6 w/ Xposed. I doubt that path will be an option with later hardware releases.

What's the best, cutting edge Xposed-compatible hardware—presuming I might still be running it 5 years from now?
[Xposed General] shadowcore:
None.

Also hardware isnt the issue. Software is.

A one plus will stipl run great after 5 years.

But probably new security issues will arise and there won't be bug fixes to those things from anyone.

Maybe there will be other alternatives to exposed, but personally speaking, my current nexus 6 wipl be my last smartphone.

I will either not use one in the future or simply continue using this phone until it dies.

Appart from being utterly disgusted by the regression of technology (removable batteries gone, headphone jacks gone, lack of support),

I also cant stand the privacy issues.
[Xposed General] organophosphate:
I disagree, unless you were making a reference to Wirth's law. My Nexus 5 crawls today in comparison to how it ran years ago, and I'm constantly short on RAM when I wasn't in the past. Most of this is the bloat caused by apps. It will help, of course, that the OS wouldn't be upgraded.

I also perform the hardware repair on my N5 myself, so that's a factor. Things like battery replacement come into play after years of use.

That's effectively where I'm at now. The OTAs won't apply, and I don't care enough to go through the gyrations to update the OS with the patches.
[Xposed General] kkn_13:
Agreed I have Nexus 5, Redmi Note 3, Redmi Note 4, Moto G5 Plus, Mi5 at home

Nexus 5 feels ancient now though I love the form factor and the occasional times when it runs smooth off late

Im guessing EMMC might be degrading
[Xposed General] fishersfish:
Then I should buy more Android Phones, at least one for shopping, one for apps at sixes and sevens. I am in China and most of the apps don't want to obey the rules...

Plus: less pleasure for personalizing
[Xposed General] xanthrax:
Guys !

Please keep on topic and refrain from xposed lifespan assumptions , the OP is asking for a different opinion

thread cleaned and be nice one with the other

thanks for understanding

Dan - forum moderator
[Xposed General] droidbot1337:
you pretty much already have my suggestion.... a OnePlus 3T. since you seem to need xposed (imho, just move on) all new phones will obviously be shipping with android 7.xx+, the 3T is the best phone to get. i doubt there will be an update to xposed so eventually you will need to update and its obvious that later android version will have superior memory management to make use of the 3T's memory.

if by chance, xposed does somehow live you will still be left with a great phone that is only further made better by whatever android version is available. a few weeks ago i helped several classmates switch ROM's. they all bought 3T's due to my recommendation. all are very happy. i suggest you get one while they are still available. i hope this helps! cheers!
[Xposed General] organophosphate:
Thanks.

Well, I *need* XPrivacy and not only is that dependent on Xposed but I subsequently found out that development likely won't support anything later than Marshmallow. So, that's where I'll be indefinitely until someone replicates that.

It does. Thanks. The largest concern is battery replacement, as it seems there are no genuine replacement batteries. Maybe that will change in a few years, though.
[Xposed General] droidbot1337:
well, if privacy is your concern their are many apps that can help. your familiari with AFWall+ so there's that. you could also use Island by Oasisfeng. i mostly use it to hide my friends titpics and my snapchat, kik accounts but the app will eventually be able to do so much more.

i dont know what type of privacy concerns you have but a firewall should be enough unless your either a spy or just paranoid.

you can find parts for this phone with an easy google search. i purchased a replacement screen for a friend that accidentally dropped her 3T from a balcony at school.

i truly suggest you move on to N. soon there O will be released and with it so many worthwhile features. if your lucky enough to get the chance to use it i suggest you do and not pass due to the lack of xposed. while i agree that xposed is great, its not worth passing over on updating to a better android release.

btw, now that there has been more info on the 1+5, i suggest you wait. give island a try and then i hope you go for the 1+5. cheers!
[Xposed General] organophosphate:
In addition to XPrivacy, I'm already using AFWall+, AppOps Xposed, and an always-on VPN.

Cool, I'll check it out for consideration to be added it into the mix. Thanks.

A firewall is necessary but insufficient due to in-band privacy leaks. I require XPrivacy to intercept calls and feed apps fake data. There is really no substitute for Xposed for this type of approach; you may remember PDroid and how clunky that was.

Hm. I was unable to find a genuine OnePlus 3T battery. I found a few obviously counterfeit batteries from dodgy ebay vendors, but I would certainly appreciate it if you could point me to a source for a genuine new replacement battery for a 3T.

Thanks for sharing your perspective, but I'd rather not have a smartphone than to go without XPrivacy or its equivalent. I certainly need XPrivacy a lot more than I need some new UX. I already disable all the "cool" creepy google **** like google now cards and I deny the google app access to my mic & location (well, location services is disabled altogether, but you get the point). My smartphone on MM does what I want it to do, and I really don't need it to do anything more—especially if it comes at the cost of losing the fine-grained control over apps one has via XPrivacy.
[Xposed General] FenrirMX:
Hijacking the thread, since you posted some nice alternatives. What about us that can't live without Amplify and Greenify?
[Xposed General] Face_Plant:
Greenify doesn't require Xposed to work, just for the "boost" features. It works just fine on my 6P running 7.1.2, which means I have no Xposed.
[Xposed General] Garock:
another thread hijack since someone mention xposed module alternatives

can someone create a thread specifically list down all the alternatives for xposed modules? I am switching to S8 which is nougat only so I need to find alternatives for my xposed modules

- app settings: no alt

- appopsxposed: no alt

- boot manager: no alt

- nekosms: samsung default messaging app block feature (although not as complete)

- rootcloak: magisk

- xtouchwiz: manually deal with csc xml
[Xposed General] ldeveraux:
Does Magisk directly replace Rootcloak? Doesn't Magiskhide only hide Magisk, not root?
[Xposed General] josephcsible:
Magisk hides its root.
[Xposed General] ldeveraux:
Right, not SuperSU though.
[Xposed General] Garock:
not sure but I thought magisk hide will also hide root from other apps

but you're correct, magisk hide needs magisksu and cannot work with supersu
