switched to unofficial TWRP yesterday, while having bugs with PE ROM :D

so I must say, even with official TWRP I still can't play no music with PE.

not a big issue, BTW. flashing V4A does the trick and now PE is good.
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Subray:
Wish I could help you more but sincerely don't know what else to do..

It doesn't make sense to me but I'm not a experienced developer specially in Android development.

As long as V4A gives you a work around your problem is solved.

upgrading from LOS 14.1 to LOS 15

Hi All,

Anyone one has pointers on how to do upgrade from LOS14.1 to LOS15 without loosing already installed apps ? basically i want to upgrade my OP2 to LOS15 without loosing any data?

any pointers/suggestions appreciated !!

Thanks and Regards,

Yogesh
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Subray:
Backup your apps with titanium backup.. But i won't guarantee all app data to be able to be restored. You are gonna change Android version and some data may give some errors..

But I can only see this backup being needed for single player unsynced games..

What do you wanna backup in particular?
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] yogesh_thirthappa:
Hi,

Thanks for responding, probably i don't call it as back-up, i have couple of apps installed in LOS14.1, now if i intsall LOS15, all i have to do is install them again( and there are chances that i may miss couple of them) so am looking for a way where i can get already installed apps from my previous version to latest version.

is it possible to do ??

Thanks and Regards,

Yogesh
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Subray:
Not that I know of.. But if all those apps are from Google Play Store then just use the "library" from your account.. It registers all apps you ever used on an android phone..

That audio thing stuck with me and I've been thinking about it. Can you do me a favor and install the app "Device Info HW" and check on the main page what audio reference it shows you?

Attached screenshot with my info.. Thinking they might be different.. Meaning that PE didn't have the audio driver for your hardware pre-installed.
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] gothsk8er:
This is why I installed V4a in the first place, I figured out it was driver related.
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Subray:
Is yours different then mine?
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] zipalign:
screenshot attached.

remember I flashed V4A.
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Subray:
The app shows hardware not driver info. So flashing V4A won't change the info the app gives you.

It's the same.. Damn... I was sure it was because of this..
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] gothsk8er:
IDK now, because I went back to Los, I had more than 15 soft reboots in one day because of network drops (network signal is not so great where I live).
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Subray:
It's hardware info m8. The rom won't change the info so you can check it anyway.
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Hosh Jk:
Yes.. even I'm facing the same issue. Sometimes the phone reboots for the second time immediately and then gets stuck in bootloop and I would notice this when I feel the heat in my pocket. Are you sure this is a better related issue? Cause I have strong network in my place... And the bootloops come even when I'm traveling.
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Astrogabba:
yup thank you so much, that worked.. i wonder what's the logic behind that doe..
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] gothsk8er:
I just assumed it was that. I hope it will be fixed. I didn't think about heat issue, the reboots were even drastic when the phone was charging (and ofc it is heating during that time).
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Hosh Jk:
I faced this problem even when I'm on LOS15. I thought it would've been because of dirty flashes after every update. But now I've cleaned flashed and it was fine for a day and yesterday I had like 2 reboots and this morning I had close to 15!

Help with Magisk

I have been trying to get magisk work with this rom but no matter what i do it doesnt seem to install properly. Would be glad if someone can help me install it and get running.

I have been reading various intall procedurs and seen videos. even after following them step by step it doesnt seem to work.
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Subray:
There is nothing to it. Just flash ROM boot to rom make first configuration. Reboot to recovery and flash latest magisk from official thread.

https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445

Note: unlike SuperSU you don't have an app installed with it. You have to install it manually. And it's called magisk manager.
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Astrogabba:
I'm too having problems with magisk, the first it that even if I've managed to install and root (checked with root checked) it still says "install" and not "re-install". The other problem is that I'm unable to install "injected youtube background playback vanced", it keeps saying installation failed.
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Pranay Kamdar:
Did this various times. but once the modules are installled and i reboot they are not there anymore and then it starts giving eroor and does not install any modules. unable to understand what i am missing in the installation process.

Pixel experience ROM: my fingerprint scanner/ home button stopped working last night.

Due to the panic attack I wiped my phone and flashed back to lineage 15.0 which didn't solve the issue either.

I ended up flashing stock oxygen os. The home button is working fine now.

I don't plan to flash this ROM back anytime soon till I feel it's a bit more stable for my use(lineage 15.1 hopefully :) ).
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] gsarwar55:
I am new and English is also poor. I used many nougate roms and resulted that better and stable ROMs are purenexus, RR, and Los 14.1. I want to say some words about pixel experience ROM. I am using it for some days, I found that this ROM is more stable than Los 15. it is working smoothly, no problem at all in listening music with 3rd party softwares, etc. However, camera is creating some problems. It is the IST release I hope it will be the best ROM for OP2. This ROM need of advance reboot.Thanks to shreesha.
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Pranay Kamdar:
Wipe Data and cache in twrp

install Os and wipe cache

install gapps and wipe cache

reboot and initial install

reboot to twrp and install magisk

install magisk manager

i figured if i dont update the app to latest release the modules work but if i update it doesn't work anymore.
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Subray:
Well I would say too much wiping in the middle and not enough wiping in the beginning.

First wipe everything except internal storage. Then flash os. Don't wipe anything. Flash gapps. Don't wipe anything flash magisk. Don't wipe anything. And reboot.

The above is for LOS 15.

If you flash pixel experience rom don't install any gapps since they are included. And boot first and make first configuration before installing magisk.

The biggest problem on this custom rom is when you change from wireless to gprs then change again to wireless 2 or 3 times the gprs stop working, just with a phone reboot resolve the problem

Dont want to write but RIP Update schedule :(
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] kavee.gauravjoshi:
Don't want to write but better go back to OOS...

How many times one has to mention that Shreesha had exams... Dude, if you really want the update so bad, why don't you build it? Let the guy give his exams properly and take some break. C'on man. And whatever builds he has given are stable enough to be used as daily drivers. He also gave oreo 8.1 build for us by taking out time from his schedule which is also awesome ROM. Please, don't be impatient and remember none of us is entitled for anything. Let's enjoy whatever dev community provides us. You are free to try other ROMs if you want and there are plenty. So relax and enjoy Oreo on OP2

Edit: sorry if i sounded harsh or rude, but i feel we must respect the devs who have kept our OP2 alive after Oneplus abandoned us. We have Oreo even before OP5 or OP5T has it, even have Oreo 8.1... only Pixel has it. who would have thought a 2 year old device can have latest Android? Such an awesome feat achieved by all the developers. Lets just give them freedom to work on their own terms. Let's not rush or expect anything. Technically OP2 should have been dead as of yet. So i just feel we all should show that gratitude through our actions, that's it. Peace...

Pixel Experience - Loving it with BB Kernel and OOS 3.6.1 firmware.. Super fast boot, super smooth performance and loooonnngggg battery life.. Couldn't ask for more :)

But FYI... I had to clean flash thrice.. First, same setup worked and I used substratum and after reboot, phone app started FC.. Second time also same setup with substratum and same issues.. Then after another clean flash, same setup except substratum is working perfectly..
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] sameer507:
Pixel experience is more stable experience with BB kernel.✌️
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Adrianturingan:
What do you mean by oos 3.6.1 firmware? Did you flash oos 3.6.1 first? or did you flash over los 15?
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Varun V Kashyap:
I love lineage os.. was a fan of cyanogen mod.. I'm desperately waiting for official release of stable nougat/oreo version for oneplus 2..
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] mukeshp7867:
There are several stable nougat roms. Lineage 14 is one of them and very stable. I have also used Slim and Mokee which are also equally stable and battery friendly. Try them.
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] gothsk8er:
Not sure about that! What about network drops and random reboots? Los 14 has those. I heard that Carbon is good.
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Aks:
I'm not using los but using Pixel Experience. And yes, I flashed only firmware on pixel and not entire OOS. You can search for it in forums
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] cmahendra:
thanks . I think by BB you mean blue bolt but I found its xda thread with only nougat version. Can you please route me to exact link of BB for OOS 3.6.1 (marshmallow) version? Thanks in advance

PS: Or anyone else post the link?
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] matsalka:
All in all I have found LOS15 more stable and faster than latest 14.

14 had reboots sometimes while navigating, but it never had network drops though.
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] chauhanajay4u:
I don't have button settings in LOS 15, I want to enable onscreen nav buttons, but even if I use the search button in settings, and click on the buttons result, it just displays a message saying "LineageOS Settings has stopped working" and returns to normal settings page. Anyone has this issue?
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] fonfox:
Tab (long time ) in statusbar on the settings Icon( circle)

Under settings ,system , new systemUi Tuner apears , there you can Go

[MENTION=8792956]chauhanajay4u[/MENTION]
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] chauhanajay4u:
That will work once I enable the Onscreen nav keys. But there is no option to do that !
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] zipalign:
I flashed PE ROM several times like you, and every time I had com.android.phone process FC after some time.

I was figuring out the issue and trying to fix it. then I came across a possible solution:

- issue is substratum theming phone app layers, which makes the process to FC.

try to use your substratum theme without theming phone-related apps layers.

I am using swift dark theme since yesterday and themed only some layers [system settings, messaging apps, instagram, keep, etc., leaving unchecked phone-related apps. no reboots or FC 'til now]. give a try with your substratum theme and report back.
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] kavee.gauravjoshi:
That's a known issue. Button customisations need to be implemented from LOS side.

However there is a workaround to enable onscreen navbar if you are rooted. Add following lines to build.prop file under root - system folder and reboot

qemu.hw.mainkeys=0

This will enable onscreen navbar and then you can use ui tuner settings or any 3rd party app like custom navigation bar to customize these keys
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] chauhanajay4u:
Thanks. I'm rooted, so that will work, just wanted to confirm, whether it comes inbuilt with LOS
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] fonfox:
Tab this Button to enable systemUi tuner
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Aks:
Thank you, that's exactly what I did and it's working fine now
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Subray:
Sorry but I think Blue Bolt Kernel is only for Nougat or Oreo. (I even searched the forums for it and couldn't find it)

And honestly you should try Los 15 or even Pixel Experience ROM. ( Marshmallow is so old school :) )

Both are very stable and worth using as a daily driver.

How to get Volte in LOS 15?
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] sameer507:
Enable enhanced LTE mode in network settings.

But dont forget Volte works on 1st sim only on Oreo builds.
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Subray:
And it's carrier dependent.. In my country for example there is only one operator with voLTE and they only allow it with certain brands and models. Oneplus is not one of those brands...
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] christyrajie:
i am Sorry... like i have not been into this LOS 15 lately but just like you said! that we have got 8.1 update like do we really have an update and whats with this pixel experience rom? its just a additional zip file right or do we have someone extra? **just new some noob questions**

We wants to now the difference of LOS and pixel experience ROMs..

Thats my take on it :)
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] zipalign:
he wants to know the difference between an apple and a pear.
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Subray:
8.1 Oreo was officially released for Pixel 2.. And not for any other. (I think) Our beloved devs have ported it to our phone..

Basically it will have bug fixes from 8.0 and some UI changes.. And in this case it's not lineage... Yet.

And no it is not a simple "install a zip" to have the difference from 8.0 to 8.1. It's an updated version of the OS.
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] kavee.gauravjoshi:
The 8.1 update is not for LOS, but there is another beta ROM created by Shreesha for those who want to taste Oreo 8.1. That's Pixel Experience ROM. Read the following post by dev to know the details:

Buttons feature missing in settings-> system menu

Hi,

First of all, I would like to say big thanks for providing Android Oreo on Oneplus 2 :)

I am pretty much happy with current beta build except "buttons"

Actually I have problem with my buttons of my device. So I am using navigation buttons on the screen from past 6 months.

After updating with Lineage OS, the button feature is not working (Currently I have installed some third party app for buttons)

I have tried to search in settings menu for buttons, then I am able to see that option, but if I opened it, then it shows error popup to close :(

I hope in your next lease this will be fixed. I know you are very busy with exams. So please take your time and come up with next update.

Thanks,

Naresh
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] kavee.gauravjoshi:
Hardware buttons and navbar customizations need to be implemented from source side i.e. on LOS side. However, if you are rooted, and are open to use 3rd party apps, you can customize your hardware buttons as well as navbar as per your requirements.

If you let us know what all button customizations you are looking for, then may be we can help :)
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] nareshkondala:
I need back button, home button and swap button (Button controllers)

My oneplus 2 button controllers are not working, earlier I am enabled these buttons bar on the screen (bottom side) in Andriod 7.1

But this feature is missing :(

Hope you understand what I am saying :)

Thanks,

Naresh
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] kavee.gauravjoshi:
If you are rooted, add following line to the build.prop file. You will find this file under root - system folder.

qemu.hw.mainkeys=0

Save the build.prop file and reboot. You will have onscreen buttons. You can use 3rd party apps like - Custom Navigation Bar to customize these onscreen buttons. Hope this helps.

Edit: Do let me know if this works :D
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Subray:
If I understood correctly what shreesha said earlier he is not responsible for having the buttons option removed. He ports lineage distribution to Op2 and the buttons menu was removed in one of the merges he did to the main lineage distribution. It's a source problem so. Shreesha will not be able to do nothing about it.
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] nareshkondala:
Sorry, I did root earlier. But don't know what happened, again it shows unroot the device.

I am trying to do that, But, in developer options-> OEM unlock is not enabled :( (I am trying to enable it, but it was not)
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] kavee.gauravjoshi:
That's also a known aesthetic bug. Don't worry about it.

This ROM is not pre-rooted, so you will have to root it using Magisk or SU. How did you root your device? SU or Magisk? Check the root status through any root checker app from playstore.
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] nareshkondala:
I have checked with root checker and it says like "Sorry! Root access is not properly installed on this device"

Earlier I did it using "twrp"
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] Subray:
If you are in Los or pixel rom don't try to enable it again. Just follow what kavee is saying.

---------- Post added at 10:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:46 AM ----------

TWRP is your recovery.. For root access you need to install superSu or Magisk. I advise magisk.
[OnePlus 2 Android Development] kavee.gauravjoshi:
So, if you had flashed SU in TWRP, you will have uninstall it - and reinstall to rectify this error / to get proper root access. I am not sure about this procedure because I have not used SU.

However if you have flashed Magisk, then I am not sure why are you getting this message. Either follow Magisk support thread - https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/mod-magisk-v1-universal-systemless-t3432382

to get support

Or if you have not flashed anything (SU / Magisk) in TWRP, then follow Magisk release thread: https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445

Download latest Magisk and flash it through TWRP.

Once you root successfully, then follow the solution i had written earlier.

Note: If you are not experienced with rooting, i suggest you read about it in detail. And whatever you do, do not forget to make nandroid backup. This can cause your mobile to brick, hence it is always advised to read thoroughly before doing anything.

OR

Another simpler solution is - if you don't mind clean flashing again: Clean flash the ROM + Gapps + clean delvik cache--> Reboot --> Do basic mobile setup--> Go back to TWRP and flash latest Magisk + clean delvik cache --> Reboot --> you will be rooted, check root status --> Update build.prop file --> Reboot and you will have navbar
