[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] OrtizFerrari:
I have one OP5T sir. I bought because its an awesome phone, but I want to watch my series in their full resolution too.

Greetings.
[Magisk] fatino:
Hi,

I have a nextcloud server on raspberry pi on my local network. I need to dynamically switch hosts when I connect to my wifi so my phone knows to connect to local ip from my domain(lets call it mydomain.com) which is configured in every app that uses nextcloud. So on cellurar use DNS server and on wifi use hosts' file entry.

On my previous device that ran LOS 14 I had a Tasker configuration that looked with scripts like this:

wifi_in.sh

#!/bin/sh
mount -o rw,remount,rw /system
echo "192.168.1.21 mydomain.com" >> /etc/hosts
echo "192.168.1.21 sth.mydomain.com" >> /etc/hosts
echo " " >> /etc/hosts
mount -o ro,remount,ro /system

wifi_out.sh

#!/bin/sh
mount -o rw,remount,rw /system
sed -i '/mydomain.com/d' /etc/hosts
sed -i '/^[[:space:]]*$/d' /etc/hosts
echo " " >> /etc/hosts
mount -o ro,remount,ro /system

It worked perfectly. I made it that wifi_in.sh triggers on being connected to network and wifi_out.sh when it disconnects. By adding white space to hosts file it made it so whole system read hosts file again and it was fluid.

Now I'm using systemless hosts file with AdAway. They work fine and I modified the scripts to use correct file:

BTW I'm on official LineageOS 14 with Magisk 14(point releases caused boot problems so I kinda stopped on 14)

wifi_in.sh

#!/bin/sh
echo "192.168.1.21 mydomain.com" >> /magisk/.core/hosts
echo "192.168.1.21 sth.mydomain.com" >> /magisk/.core/hosts
echo " " >> /magisk/.core/hosts

wifi_out.sh

#!/bin/sh
sed -i '/mydomain.com/d' /magisk/.core/hosts
sed -i '/^[[:space:]]*$/d' /magisk/.core/hosts
echo " " >> /magisk/.core/hosts

Well the problem is that it kinda worked once when I added hosts, but it doesn't update hosts anymore. So it stays 192.168.1.21 mydomain.com even if I delete every mydomain.com entry from hosts file.

Do you guys have any idea how to fix this?
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
That's interesting...

I ran your scripts and see the same thing. It works once... The hosts file in /magisk/.core updates every time, but the mirrored one in /system/etc doesn't.

Putting this one down on the "investigate" list.
[Magisk] topjohnwu:
Thanks for reporting this issue. However, this issue is not a Magisk bug, rather it is caused by the fact that it is mounted, the file is not actually in /system/etc

For some reason, the sed -i command works by first read stuffs to memory, delete the file, then recreate one. However the "delete the file" step is actually what causes this issue.

A workaround would change all sed -i commands:

# Change this
sed -i '<pattern>' '<file>'

# To this
sed '<pattern>' '<file>' > /dev/.tmp
mv -f /dev/.tmp '<file>'
[Magisk] fatino:
I modified the script and rebooted. Everything works as it should. Thank you very much for your help.
[Magisk] NegativeOne:
I don't even have a /magisk folder. did this path change? I'm on beta 16.4
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] greygene:
I tried to search for this topic over the Internet but got even more confused. Can someone help me with the following question?

Does Essential phone have LED notification?

I know it has a charging light and it is working fine.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] tomzefi:
Yes
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] Barsky:
Weird. You have more settings in that screen shot that I do. What version? Just got mine a few hours ago. It received two updates and is on nmi81c

Nevermind it is getting an update that adds that now :)
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] greygene:
I'm on NMI81C too. So that explained why I don't see those extra settings either. I only see "Pulse Notification Light" and "Battery Charging Light". I'm wondering what does "Pulse Notification Light" mean? ;)

BTW, when did you get your update?
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] Barsky:
Got the phone 3 hrs ago. Just got what should be the 4th and last update
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] greygene:
What build version are you on?!
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] tomzefi:
Oreo beta. Sorry.

---------- Post added at 03:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:58 AM ----------

Sorry I didn't mention. It's the Oreo beta build
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] greygene:
hmm...it looks like I have to wait for the next update.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] greygene:
Well, today I found the LED notification does exist but not consistent. I saw the LED lights up and flash slowly (very slow!) for some applications and sometimes. It does not always light up for the the same application as my Nexus 6P did before. It looks like the ROM needs some work.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] DaveHTC200:
I think with O you have to set the choice for each app. I believe it's in the notification settings for each app
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] hs911:
someone tried lightflow? otherwise i will do in the next days..
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] greygene:
I tried. Not working well either. I'm with NMI81C though. I will try to load Oreo beta today.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] arya9901:
I am using Lightflow with no issues. I am on the oreo beta, but did have it working prior to upgrading. That was on the original build as I am on sprint, and once I sideloaded the other 2 builds I decided to go for the beta as well.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] greygene:
I sideloaded Oreo beta. Everything went smoothly. But the LED notification has not changed. The charging light is still working. I enabled "Allow notification dot" and Blink light". But LED notification does not light up when a text message arrived (using Textra).
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] greygene:
I just side loaded Keep beta. I saw settings on "allow notification dot" on each app and they are turned on. But I still could not get LED notification. (For example, Textra). It worked well on my old Nexus 6p.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] FallN:
The Essential phone most definitely has a notification light. It's hidden under the left-most portion of the tiny speaker grill. You'll only notice it when you have a notification or it's charging.

It has multiple colors. I've seen blinking blue for notifications, green for charging and I think red for low battery, if I remember correctly.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] greygene:
You are absolutely correct. The LED light works fine when changing. But as for notification, it does not work persistently. For the same app, sometimes it worked but the other times it didn't. Also for some other apps they never worked. (Those apps have notifications and worked well on my old Nexus 6p, like Textra, Facebook, etc.)

Another thing I found is that the blink interval seems to be too long.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] tjablonowski:
try turning off the ambient display in display settings. once I did that the led colors and flash rate started working...
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] combat goofwing:
I'm using light flow and it works fine for changing colours ,have different colours set for

Text

Missed calls

What's app

Low battery ,charging ,fully charged

Emails etc
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] VennligFiende:
Same here, running Oreo beta and Light Flow. No issues.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] vergilbt:
Are you guys able to set an LED notification for apps they don't flash on stock (e.g. Tapatalk)
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] combat goofwing:
Got it set for what's app and it's working ,that's the only app ,rest are system alerts like new text message ,missed call etc
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] VennligFiende:
I have it set for system apps and a few others (Threema, BBC News, weather apps, Outlook) all of them work. I have the XDA app installed but don't have it set up with Light Flow as I don't have the need to be notified for it.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] teostar:
I just installed lightflow. But it does not work. Those saying it works, are you on Oera?
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] Caltinpla:
It works for me...running Oreo beta 2.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] VennligFiende:
Works for me as well. Beta 2.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] teostar:
Guess the leds only works on oreo.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] hs911:
No. Lightflow is working fine here with Nougat.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] combat goofwing:
Working fine here on nougat
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] RoccoN4:
For all those who have light flow working, or an notification light app, are you able to adjust the blink rate? I'd like it to bloom blink faster then it is now. Every app I try the blink rate stays the same. I'm on Oreo Beta 2. Thanks
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] Caltinpla:
Yes, I'm on stock Oreo beta 2 and unrooted.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] VennligFiende:
Same. Blink rate can be adjusted.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] RoccoN4:
Mind sharing your settings? I can not for the life of me get the blink rate to change. I've been using Light Flow nice the Nexus 4 days so I'm familiar with using the app
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] Caltinpla:
I'm not sure if it makes the difference but I have the lightflow pro/paid version installed. What version are you installed?

Try a flesh install: uninstall the app > restart your phone > and then reinstall it to see if it fixes it.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] RoccoN4:
I've had pro for years now. I've uninstalled. Cleared app data and cache. Just won't work properly. Had issues when I had a OnePlus as well. I've even tried light manager and still nothing works properly.

So you just installed the app and just set the colour and blink rate for each notification? You didn't mess around with the settings in any way?
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] Caltinpla:
Yes, that's correct. Just set the color and blink rate for each app, and it worked.

I don't have any problems with the blink rate, but some of the colors settings sometimes don't stick. So, I have to close the app then start over again to make it working.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] VennligFiende:
LF Settings backup attached.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] RoccoN4:
Thanks for both your help however I still cannot get the blink rate to flash any differently then stock. Oh well.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] cas239:
What are your settings? I've tried and tried again to get Lightflow working on this phone with nougat. I've emailed the Dev, he says he's aware it the issue and states it's a driver issue with the phone and that he was going to reach out to Essential to come up with a fix
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] teostar:
Seems like I hit or miss on the essential phone. I couldn't get it working either.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] blakksmiff:
Good evening all. I have flashed my Mogul succesfully with Nexxvisions ROM (thanks to him as well as DCD and Dogguy) and I have been running for about a week and a half and have had no difficulties. So I have been showing off to my collegues about how grreat my phone is and of course I get requests to flash their phones. So I flash three phones (against my better judgement) and within 24 hours 2 of them are having the same exact issues. They said they did a soft reset while attached to the charger, and when the unit reboots it freezes. The only way to get out of it, is to reboot and quickly go into comm mngr and go into airplane mode. Once they got out of airplane mode, the phone would go back to normal. This is odd, because as I stated, I have had no trouble in almost 2 weeks. Now I was thinking what is different about my unit and theirs, and then I realized that they are both using the ATT version of Telenavand Im not. So my question is, has anyone else had trouble with their Mogul like the issues I explained above.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] rmancl:
I had the same issue with GPS today plugin, i had to remove the program to get it to work right again. I am not currently using the nexxvision rom but i am using a rom based on dcd 2.2.0.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] blakksmiff:
Interesting. Maybe there is an issue with DCD 2.2.0 and some GPS apps.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] rmancl:
actully just read the post on gps today and the developers have released an update addressing the issue i had. see the new download here:http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=1945477&postcount=32
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] blakksmiff:
Cool. I'll try that new one. GPS today seems like a cool app. Anyone having issues with Telenav though?

Vote on thread poll, and in fee days we'll have a decision.

Also one more thing, you can give a suggestions for profile names, adding new profile and it's parameters and update current one.

Thanks a lot for suggestions, and have a good day. ;)

Yes, Definitely.That is the term I have seen more frequently. If you do a search, you will see seeder used also, in older info.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] Pinktank:
Hello All,

For systemless root on the latest magisk, can I just install latest magisk manager and let it do its thing, or do I have to flash a custom boot image first?
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] GuestK0037:
if I'm not mistaken, magisk manager will need magisksu...

so you will flash the magisk zip, it will patch your kernel with magisk / su support... (I don't even know what u mean by 'custom boot image')...

then magisk manager will work.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] Sgace:
-Be completely stock

-Install Magisk manager 5.4.0

-Let it patch boot image

-Flash patched boot image in fastboot

-Done and profit;)

Good luck.

Cheers

Edit: make sure you're bootloader is and stays unlocked offcourse.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] KittyRgnarok:
Just flash magisk zip through TWRP
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] Pinktank:
Thanks! thought so with the latest version, so I don't need to flash TWRP, I can just unlock bootloader and let Magisk do the rest right? As you can see in this thread, people post conflicting stuff, mostly from before when magisksu was unable to deal with the A/B partitioning
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] Sgace:
Yes, unlock bootloader if you haven't already (this will factory reset your phone) and then follow my first post.

No need for twrp anymore.

Cheers
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] Pinktank:
Thanks a million, somebody should sticky this as people are still going with the other methods. I'll straight flash the image before unlocking to iron out possible kinks from various updated.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] GuestK0037:
ya, sorry for any confusion, I may have added. ***I was not aware of using this newer method, seems handy fir some people... however; ... it's still rather pointless to use for some of us and doesn't obsolete using twrp;

1. I'm a kernel Dev, so I'm frequently flashing builds.

2. using magisk manager to patch a custom kernel, just would add unnecessary steps to the process.

it's much faster to just fastboot into twrp. flash kernel and magisk in one go, reboot...done. ***this would also be true for anyone flashing zips, that aren't magisk related.

still though; easy great tip for people who only need magisk.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] Pinktank:
no problem. The nice thing about the magisk method is that it actually slips in the necessary changes during boot without static patching, keeping the system the same. Not sure how it would roll with custom kernel booting
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] GuestK0037:
Yeah, I'm not too sure either. It would require probably changing my workflow, unpacking / repacking stock boot.img, adding in my init rc scripts, then using the magisk method ~ that sounds less automated, at first glance...

Right now, I build the kernel, then pop it into into a folder, zip it and flash it (all of the other parts are taken care of / setup).... I love magisk though; great root / systemless method. glad to see it opensource nad always improving ;)
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] Sgace:
You're welcome. Let us know how it worked out for you.

Hello,

Can anyone confirm that the Prime Video app on the shield works with primevideo.com subscriptions?

This would be a subscription outside of the main Amazon prime sites (US, UK). I have a primevideo.com subscription for Ireland.
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koriflame:
Not a straight answer.. but I would think if the fire tv app or android app work with it this one should as well, inversely if one of those doesn't than this probably doesn't.

Would like to know this too.

Hello everyone! I have issues about doze.

I have a Wiko Fever (android 6.0) since march. Every night, the battery goes from 100% to 90%.

So I installed GSam. And the doze time was 0s in 8 hours of inactivity. I tried to check if I have the doze. Checked, and the test said that I haven't the sensor support. Looked from the doze requirements, found that I need a significant motion detector. As I understood, the accelerometer and gyroscope are significant motion detectors. (I have them both).

My two questions are: can I use doze? If not, there is a way I can use it?

Sorry for broken English, I hope it is enough clear

I have an Ulefone Power T875d. There are no custom ROMS, no modding presence for this phone at all except TWRP. It doesn't even have a subforum here.

I want to build Nougat for it but there is no device repo or anything like that. Is it possible? Could I maybe extract what I need from the official Marshmallow ROM? I found this https://github.com/ulefoneofficial?tab=repositories but it looks like they are being lazy with uploading their sources...

I noticed that the Ulefone Metal https://xdaforums.com/t/ulefone-metal has VERY similar specs - same chipset/CPU/GPU, slightly different camera etc. Couldn't say if the modem etc is the same. Is there anything useful there?

[Xperia Z5 Premium Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dirty_waif:
Hi all,

New poster to the forums - I tried searching but no identical issues or solutions were found so sorry if this has been solved multiple times before..

My Z5 E6653 WiFi is not working - I go and turn it on and it will say "Searching for Wi-Fi Networks" however it never stops this or finds networks - even when there are many networks around.

I tried factory resetting, also flashed to stock 7.1.1 as per https://xdaforums.com/xperia-z5/general/ftf-e66xx-patched-kernels-google-drive-t3688365 (steps 1-14).

Phone diagnostics say that wifi is working correctly. I tried repairing with sony pc companion tool however apparently my device is a "prototype" (bought off ebay) and repair is always cancelled by an error message.

With mobile tethering I can turn it on but the network is not found by any surrounding device..

At this stage I am leaning towards a possible hardware issue, as wifi was previously working at least a few weeks ago..

Would unlocking bootloader etc. and flashing a custom kernel help possibly?

Some further info:

Android Version 7.1.1

Kernel version: 3.10.84-perf-g99119bc

Build Number 32.4.A.1.54

Thanks

I was thinking it would be convient if there was a locked sticky that would summarize the most popular WM6 ROMs. In addition to this, linking to the threads for the most recent releases. Just a thought, it would make things easier for a lot of people. (yes me too, so I'm being rather selfish with this request :D)
