Just a follow-up for others if they run into this. I tried a lot of different things, re-pairing, changing settings, resetting bluetooth by deleting files under root, etc. It turns out it seems to be an incompatibility between older bluetooth devices I own and the OP5's Oreo. I borrowed a new BT headphone and there is no skip at all. That doesn't rule out an issue with OP's BT stack, but I may have just been unlucky and this is actually rare. My headphones and car worked with Nougat, so something changed, but it's apparently uniquely affecting those devices. I don't really know that there is anything they can do since their support isn't too willing to really dig into this issue and I'm sure now that I had a successful use they will too since they will likely only use known compatible BT headphones at the depot (were I to send my phone off).

So, if anybody else runs into this, try a few pair of headphones. You might have to upgrade yours...

So for the 1st step which basically says to go to bootloader and then boot twrp from your pc, can't you just reboot into twrp?
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] weiquata:
I have the same issue, and it might due to SELinux permission (when upgrading from nougat) does not comply with new system :rolleyes:

Still not able to get a solution for this..

This is the main issue:

>> 03-10 23:51:49.807 22701 22701 W hostapd : type=1400 audit(0.0:73769): avc: denied { write } for name="hostapd" dev="sda13" ino=1769613 scontext=u:r:hostapd:s0 tcontext=u:object_r:wpa_socket:s0 tclass=dir permissive=0

if you run "setenforce 0" in terminal to disable SELinux, the hotspot should work.

but it is not recommended for your system security.

found the solution for hotspot issue, just wipe dalvik-cache/cache and all done.

For anyone else having wifi tethering troubles. Backup /data/misc/wifi/WifiConfigStore.xml and /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf. Delete /data/misc/wifi and reboot to android. Test tethering, it should work now. Go back to recovery and restore those 2 files. Set permissions 600 on WifiConfigStore.xml and 660 on wpa_supplicant.conf. chown system:system WifiConfigStore.xml and chown wifi:wifi wpa_supplicant.conf. Reboot back to OS. Your saved hotspots should be restored and tethering should work again.

Thx :svetius:
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] benjimoore:
Thanks! This guide worked perfectly for me! Only exception is that I had a permission denied error when I got to the steps of trying to pull files via adb, so I did that all manually (including pushing them back). Went from 4.5.10 to 5.1.4 (Android 8.1) on my OP5. Seamlessly! Lost zero data. Awesome, everything just worked exactly as it was before but now with the big update. Thanks a lot OP!

Edit : also, was having issues with bootloader in general, kept losing it after updating it etc. Did not use codeworkx twrp. I ended up using the latest blu_spark twrp (3.2.3 treble - I think) with no issue.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Andsie:
questions...

Hi,

THX alot for this detailed instructions.

A few questions left:

1. What is the purpose of the following code?

C:\> adb shell
~ # cd /sdcard
/sdcard # tar cvf twrp.tar TWRP
/sdcard # md5sum twrp.tar
<< md5 checksum of twrp.tar >>
/sdcard # exit
C:\> adb pull -p /sdcard/twrp.tar

2. Can I upgrade to the latest Oreo Upgrade, anyway?
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] zdimension:
1. That code is user for transferring the TWRP backup (that contains /data). Since a TWRP backup is made of a lot files, it's faster to put everything a tar file, transfer that and put it back later (it's faster to transfer 1 big 10 GB file than 10 small 1 GB files, because of how computers work).

2. Well yeah I guess

[MENTION=6833258]zdimension[/MENTION] I've finally upgraded to Oreo using your procedure (from a linux machine even), and everything went smoothly... I've even upgraded to Oyxgen OS 5.1.4 then to 5.1.5 in the middle of the procedure using the built-in system updater, just before doing the manual restore of /data and the sdcard. Thanks again.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Seppel007:
Ok first thanks for this guide and the knowledge collected in this thread. After one year of avoiding this update i finally did it during a rainy weekend. Running OREO 5.1.5 no issues after 12h. A few infos from my side:

- First clean your phone. Took me some hours... (huge thumbail file, gmaps data etc...) but with the poor data rate every mb is time. I used a usb stick (OTG) for the major twrp backup/restore process.

- Updated from 4.5.15 to 5.1.4 then did the OTA Update to 5.1.5. once the system was running (before all the data recovery)

- I first wanted to jump directly to 5.1.6/5.1.5 but I struggled with the missing misterious vendor partition (which wasnt present at my device, googled it loosing lot of time) - I used the newest recovery which reminded me of this in every step (twrp-3.2.3-0-20180822-codeworkx-cheeseburger.img)

- btw OTA 5.1.5 created the partition Vendor now (https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-5/help/upgrading-5-1-0-to-5-1-6-t3858725)

- Un-tar-ing of the sd.tar also failed in my case "KILLED". Failed via PC Console and inside TWRP. Couldnt figure out the reason, md5 was fine, caused some bloodpressure. I unpacked finally everything using ZArchiver when the system was running.

- Did a Titanium Backup. Moved the files, wanted to recover stuff, TB found nothing and needed this workaround: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=61152889&postcount=18

- Used TB to recover wifi hotspots. Must made a little mistake somewhere although every line of code was entered but there were still no hotspots in saved wifis
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Unfathomability:
Failure....

Got big troubles while updating and still have. Starting with wrong twrp in the beginning -> twrp 3.2.3.0 was too high I guess; changed to 3.2.1.0 as suggested.

Flashed Version 40; Android 8.1.0 after at least 20-25 error 7's and tries to get rid of it by removing stuff from the update_script file inside the .zip.

Still no luck. Now, an initially working Android 8.1.0 is installed (twrp.tar extracted and sd.tar copied), so I saw my apps which were not running of course.

Rebootet to twrp (which was uninstalling a couple of times changing back to default recovery), extracted the sd.tar after renaming the "Android" folder and got the "Killed." message.

Did the workaround as suggested with extracting and zipping it. Costs A LOT of time as everytime 14GB has to be moved.

Now the phone boots for 2 minutes, crashing to twrp. That's it.

What can I do?

Kind regards,

Mave
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] medwatt:
I bought this phone a couple of days ago for my mum and updated it to Miui 9. I'm currently waiting for my 72h waiting period to end before I unlock the bootloader. Since this phone is for my mum, she wouldn't care about the ROM installed. The only reason I'm rooting the phone is to enable camera api2 so that google camera port can work. What I'd like to know is does google camera with portrait mode work on the Miui 9 ROM because if it does I wouldn't see the need to install a custom ROM ?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] MyNameIsRage:
Short answer nope. Only hdr works in the ported cam, and video recording. Trying portrait mode or slow motion force closes the app. The only app in which portrait mode works, is the google camera app which you get with gapps. The background blur feature in it works absolutely fine.

I guess by now almost everyone know about the huge design flaw that's affecting almost every processor available. The ARM inside our Z2Play may also be vulnerable.

With these exploits, malicious code can extract basically anything from our phones, from passwords, to certificates, files, you name it.

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] M4XSUN:
I found a great deal on a new original Google Pixel XL so i decided to pick it up however i'm having this really strange issue with Gboard that's making it extremely annoying to type on without disabling haptic feedback which i prefer not to do.

Whenever i use Gboard and tap on the edge of the screen (q and p) the input will get registered and the letter will show up but i won't get any haptic feedback. I've tried resetting the device, I've tried almost all version of Gboard, I've tried different languages and they all produce the same result. I've also tried using other phones and all of them have worked perfectly normal giving me haptic feedback every time.

This would seem to be a combination of a hardware/software issue but i'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this issue and if it's possible to get an RMA?

So I started fiddling with Bk Package Disabler on mostly bloatware and following advices. So long I've only disabled Sound Detection, AASAservices and just tried Smart Capture.

The problem, is I had the idea to be sure that package disabler (not uninstaller as far as I'm concerned) worked as intended, meaning that of course the package or services are not running anymore, but also that I could re-enable those packages if need.

And it's the panic: I tried to re-enable Smart Capture, reactivated it in settings but when I god into the Apps listing it's showed inactive and neither can I Force Stop it nor enable it (since you can't disable it anyway).

Edit: I simply though taking screenshot only needed a quick button push, you actually have maintain the button that's why it "wasn't working". False alert.

[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] Caney:
Hi guys, I'm new here and I just wanted to know if someone else have had this issue too and knew how to solve it.

Yesterday I was playing pool on my phone when suddenly it turned off. I though the battery was very low but I had barely charged it. When I was trying to turn it on it didn't respond, I connected the charger and noticed that the only thing that was working was the LED and the screen never turned on again, I realized that it was a hardbrick.

I guess the cause was that a few days ago I changed the kernel, I installed Elemental X kernel, but I didn't like how it was working on my device so I restored the backup with the RR ROM I always use and everything was normal until yesterday.

I've been all the last day trying to fix it and I just have got blankflashed. Then I've tried to flash around 6 firmwares from 4 different sites and they all fail throwing me a "FAILED (remote failure)".

I use a zip file as help through adb commands on my laptop and the Fastboot Flash Mode (Secure) on my device.

I don't know what else to do and the problem is unknown for now.

Would it be the bootloader?

Is there a problem if the OEM is locked?

Is the non-existent IMEI interfering?

Am I doing things right?

What else should I do?

PS: It's obvious that I'm desperate and I know that is possible to save it.

However, I would caution against just using these files, and suggest that you update fully by flashing the entire stock September or December 2017 ROM. Your bootloader is from the November/December 2016 firmware (B1:03) so just updating your bootloader isn't a good idea, especially when it comes to OTA updates.
