Thank you for the ROM [MENTION=2903821]xlxfoxxlx[/MENTION] stoked to see more AOSiP down the road! ?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] TJSteveMX:
Unless he means from how to unlock bootloader, for that there's a few guides under essential phone guides, news, & discussion

I have issues with Nova Launcher. I need to touch hard to get my gestures recognized, like sliding the drawer up and the notification shade down. I went back to the default launcher since it was not usable. Have any clue what could cause the issue ?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] ralphoberholzer:
Sorry for the noob question. If I am currently online stock otro beta 2, should I flash first the provided firmware or can I flash ontop beta 2?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] TJSteveMX:
You can flash it on top... I did that on last test build without issues
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xlxfoxxlx:

[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] cjbr0wn:
root

Do I have to follow the root instructions when I'm dirty flashing an update or can I flash the update and magisk at the same time? Thanks
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] blakeatl:
Dirty flash ok?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xlxfoxxlx:
na still not able to do both at same time

dirty "should" be fine
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xlxfoxxlx:
and mishaps happen again lol, if you use password lockscreen then make sure to redownload or as of now download has been replaced as there was a last minute derp :(
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] aamadorj:
Thanks a lot for the update, [MENTION=2903821]xlxfoxxlx[/MENTION]. I see there are two different versions for today: FoX and Official. Which one is the recommended for the update?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xlxfoxxlx:
Woops use the official the test build must of accidentally got copied
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] ~~Tito~~:
Is there a way to set the status bar size to how its setup on stock? Some apps wont let me touch the top area properly.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] UN5EEN:
Accidentally installed the FoX build, trying to reboot into TWRP but can't seem to figure out how. Please assist.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xlxfoxxlx:
Fox is fine unless you plan on using a password for lockscreen, all others are fine
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] UN5EEN:
Alright thank you for the quick reply. I was able to boot back into TWRP to flash the Official build, however I had to use my ADB program to re-flash TWRP to then boot into it as I was unable to boot straight into TWRP from the Recovery option within fastboot itself after I had initially installed the FoX build.

Upon flashing the Official build within TWRP I got a notice before rebooting that no OS was installed. This alarmed me so I re-flashed the Official once more. Still got the "No OS installed" warning but rebooted anyways. It booted up just fine and is currently running.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xlxfoxxlx:
Yea the no os happens on these devices but its fine as long as it doesn't fail when flashing
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] hypnz:
I have the same error as [MENTION=2882666]UN5EEN[/MENTION]

But i didn't succeed to boot at rom.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xlxfoxxlx:
With this device twrp is removed any time you flash a ROM/kernel because recovery is now part of the kernel(boot.IMG) so it requires you to flash twrp again if you need to get back in to it.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] hypnz:
Well i tried to install your boot.img and then magisk.zip it gave me error about boot.img and then said no OS installed. When i changed slots via twrp and tried to boot i didn't had the no OS msg but i had bootloops.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xlxfoxxlx:
That was after you flashed ROM and set it up?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] UN5EEN:
So I had attempted to flash TWRP again before seeing this reply to see if I'd be able to have TWRP readily available, in doing so the phone has gone into a bootloop when attempting to boot back up. TWRP no longer shows the Official install anywhere so I am also unable to just do another install. ADB is also not reading the device so I'm not exactly sure what to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also, cannot access TWRP, when choosing the Recovery option in fastboot it just sits at the original Essential Powered By Android splash screen.

Edit: After reinstalling the Essential drivers to my laptop I was able to use ADB to install TWRP once again. From there I used the ADB Sideload feature within TWRP to force install the AOSiP-8.1-Official-mata-20180211.zip. In the process of setting it up and restoring apps. Will update with functionality after it settles.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] mhajii210:
Couple of things to mention guys. Root is working perfectly with Magisk 15.3 and Wi-Fi has no problems. Make sure to setup the ROM first and then reflash twrp, flash current build's boot.img, flash Magisk 15.3, and then go back into the ROM. Couple of bugs I've found on today's build: 1) Google app is nowhere to be found in the app drawer. 2) Google Now panel is slightly choppy when scrolling up or down even though it has finished loading stuff to cache. If I open up Google app, scrolling up or down is MUCH smoother when viewing feed. Any ideas why Google app is missing from app drawer? I have no way of adding it to my home screen. That's usually how I like going to my Google feed. Otherwise, so far so good!

Trying to get Gravity Box installed... I can't get xposed to install with out causing bootloops... Any specific version I need to look for?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] HiM@L:
[MENTION=2903821]xlxfoxxlx[/MENTION]

clean flashed the latest build and it force closes in fingerprint setup screen.

i though i would skip it in setup wizard and set it up after the setup but it still force closes.

i guess because of that none of the backup was restored.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xlxfoxxlx:
forgot to try a clean myself could be a issue with gapps update, did you try fingerprint/password by chance?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xlxfoxxlx:
gonna run some test and possibly have a new build up will let ya know
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] aamadorj:
Just got my PH-1 updated with the newest official build by dirty flashing. Thanks for adding the option to hide QS on lockscreen, [MENTION=2903821]xlxfoxxlx[/MENTION]. This is one of my favorite custom ROM features.

I notice adaptive brightness works fine when the device is not rooted, for example when it booted first time after update, but as soon as I installed Magisk 15.3 the adaptive brightness breaks. I unrooted the device and it fixed the issue and it happened again as soon as I rooted it one more time.

I tried with the kernel from last Sunday, which I liked a lot with the maple I/O Scheduler and an impressive battery life.

Because I dirty flashed newest build I shouldn't be reporting bugs, so please don't consider this report as one. I'm just curious if the adaptative brightness is working fine for other users (maybe after a clean flash).

EDIT: WiFi works fine with the kernel from last Sunday. I made a mistake to tried the newest ROM build with a much older kernel and that was the cause of the WiFi issue.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xlxfoxxlx:
if others are fine with the last kernel i can try going back i flash so much i can never get a accurate tell on life of battery

and by adaptive you mean chaging depending on light around you or the brightness slider doesnt do anything? ive had other reports but havent really had a issue here but im usually not rooted
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] networx2002:
I flashed the latest version no issue so far.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] ~~Tito~~:
Nevermind. Xposed works fine... Had to wait.. and you have to flash through the 3.1.5 installer not magisk.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] aamadorj:
I edited my previous post because it was inaccurate: I made a mistake when I tried the newest build with an old kernel. This Sunday ROM build works fine with the kernel from last Sunday.

It seems another reboot fixed the adaptive brightness issue I reported earlier. Sorry for the confusion I created, [MENTION=2903821]xlxfoxxlx[/MENTION].
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xlxfoxxlx:
ahh i think i know what ya mean, the brightness slider moves from 2 diff spots when enabling/disabling auto-brightness. if so yea that seems to always happen as far as i can tell.

edit: lol ok yea root seems to have some small side effects that a reboot fixes been looking into it but was working on more rom this week then device
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xlxfoxxlx:
looks like it doesnt show because it is now integrated into launcher3

[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] fftlambet:
The ROM is awesome. I am still having the issue of lockscreen security essentially breaking my phone and did not see it in the listed known issues thread. Everything works great until I set a PIN and fingerprint. Once I do, I am getting the issue that reboot works through the boot animation and immediately gives the dialog that the phone is shutting down. Anyone else having this issue? Also, is there a way to add multiple users to the phone? I go to users/accounts and can add accounts but not another user.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] ~~Tito~~:
Password and Fingerprint works for me. Have never used PIN.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] indian84:
Are you using correct firmware? You should be on OB2 or OB3 firmware for things to work perfectly, especially fingerprint and other sensors.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] UN5EEN:
Is there any sort of dark ui theming for the settings?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] ~~Tito~~:
Gonna remove Xposed and Gravity box to see if auto rotate is broken.

Anyone else have rotate issues?

EDIT: Played with some settings in Gravity Box... Rebooted thrice rotate is working again.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] indian84:
Substratum can do that. Nothing built in..
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] UN5EEN:
Thanks for the info. I'm unfamiliar with substratum. Is this an app, or exposed module? Will I need to root my device before being able to use it?

Edit: found the substratum app in playstore but no themes seems to stick.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] indian84:
It needs root to work.

If you are unrooted, you can use amdromeda app along with Substratum to theme your phone.

Google should get you around with how to use andromeda. There are few tutorials on YouTube too.

Hello, I have a root problem (For the installation of recovery (partition a) before rom, clean and flash rom, then installation of recovery after setup (partition b).

My question is the following 2 partitions must be identical or not?

Magisk manager did not install

Thank you in advance for your information

Regarding previous builds I did not have this problem

I'll make an attempt tonight.

Good evening, I redid root procedure, this time it happened,

Edit: delete this comment. I misread when trying to answer.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] fftlambet:
I am coming from OB3. The sensors work great. However, when I use a pin+fingerprint security, I cannot restart the phone. It will boot through the animation to the lock screen and immediately shutdown and restart to the recovery.

I might try reverting to OB2, do a fresh install, and see if that corrects my issues.

Hi, I need help, I updated my Essential Phone to the new Lineage OS 15.1 Oreo 8.1.0, but when I did it deleted my TWRP Recovery mode and now I can't put the back into recovery mode anymore for some reason. I tried to flash twrp-mata_11.img back on to the phone but it says something about a partition error failed. Is there any to get back to stock or is there a way to flash TWRP back on the phone so that I can update Lineage to the latest version? Please help!!
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] HiM@L:
ROM has full rootless substratum support so you dont need root.

I am using without root.

---------- Post added at 08:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:26 PM ----------

you are using lineage and reporting issue in AOSIP thread but let me try to answer you.

as you know in a/b partition you are not flashing twrp you are just booting twrp thats why when you are in bootloader you use:

fastboot flash boot twrp-mata_11.img -------> boot being the key word.

you can adb to bootloader and try the same command again.

it might give you warning for read only mode or something like that. just swipe and you will be in twrp. PROVIDED you dont have security lock setup.

Hope this helps.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] UN5EEN:
I installed substratum from play store, downloaded a couple of themes and was unable to get any to stick upon applying them.

I'm not sure if I was possibly doing something wrong, as it was my first time using the app.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] chris_stan:
Good evening, as it was said by the developer in this post the situation is studied, I advise you to root, uninstall substratum and reinstall to check the layers present via the manager then to transfer the layers, and start again with a single theme , do not forget to allow all applications of substratum before
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] HiM@L:
that doesnt necessarily mean substratum is not working. I have the same thing...nothing is there in "Manager" tab although I have fully applied theme.

:good:

---------- Post added at 09:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:38 PM ----------

I would clear substatum app data/cache and try with just one theme at first. try rebooting after applying theme sometime rootless method need that.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] chris_stan:
you can be a little genious with the UI float (at least I was);)
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] HiM@L:
[MENTION=2903821]xlxfoxxlx[/MENTION]

I like running rootless and having substratum rootless is awesome but I would like to request two things so that I can completely forget about root :)

but again, this is just request and its completely your opinion.

1. the major reason I root is to use adblocker...do you plan on implementing ROM side ad block hosts file.

2. Since, its given that GCam performs better than Essential Camera and the only way to have GCam is using Magisk for now. Do you plan on implementing GCam ROM side.

Thank You.

I am having issues with black screen , even when I press power button ...No double tap to wake on this rom ?Any help please ? I have clean updated to this rom and not rooted.

If this issue was addressed on previous pages , please let me know Thanks
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xlxfoxxlx:
If you have pocket judge enabled or if using expanded desktop as described in current issues then disable and see if it helps screen not waking. Might need some tweaking.

As far as double tap to wake, this phone doesn't natively support it even on stock so if I was to add it could cause issues and could impact battery.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xlxfoxxlx:
1. I'll look into adblocking if its something I can do with not forcing it I probably will.

2. Have you tried the other gcam mods since last update? I have one I been using without issues
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] kakabobo:

the whole conversation here is to use without root.

Latest Build running great after putting it through its paces. I haven't had to reboot since yesterday, but I will test rebooting a few times to see if the rotate, or auto brightness issue crops up again.

On a fresh boot, those two features didn't work in the last build.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] asanford:
Did you clean install? I did the dirty, and neither of those are working for me on the latest.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] ~~Tito~~:
I haven't wiped since two builds ago. I always wipe system and cache before I flash. I cant really do a full wipe as I have apps dependant on IDs, cant keep generating new ones. Going to try and see if Titanium will back up everything so I can try and run a full wipe.

Edit: Rebooting again brought the issue. The only current fix for me is rebooting until it works.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] hovnovice:
Thanks fixed , was on extended display, also fixed the ambiant display at same time..
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] TJSteveMX:
On advance reboot, choose hot roboot, always work for me, instead of multiple reboots

Just my two cents there
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] chris_stan:
Hello, something troubling, the double tap to wake seems to work (vidéo) only with display at test

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1v2Y88OB9oticMVNvC_uPi23-DVKVWIG2/view?usp=drivesdk
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] ~~Tito~~:
I'd rather do a full reboot. I tested a shut down then I powered on again and the issue didn't crop up. Reboots might be the cause?

I think hot reboot only clears the ram and other caches?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] TJSteveMX:
It's close to a system restart, it doesn't clear cache and it's effective for not forcing a complete reboot. Since this issue specific happens on a full reboot
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] ~~Tito~~:
Hmm. Its not a huge issue, and it sorts itself out eventually lol. I like the performance that I am getting now.

Finally has time to clean flash the latest version, media FC is nowhere to be seen so far, awesome work as usual [MENTION=2903821]xlxfoxxlx[/MENTION] :good:.

On a side note, I start to notice the rotation bug as other guys mentioned, so I would like to have a quick check, [MENTION=524396]~~Tito~~[/MENTION] [MENTION=5137082]TJSteveMX[/MENTION] [MENTION=5560598]asanford[/MENTION] I assumed u guys also face that bug in the recent build, so please help to confirm u run through similar setup as mine: clean flash 11/2 version, root with Magisk 15.3, restore data only with Titanium Backup, flashed Gcam module (13E), also using Gboard (not sure if this matters, cos the media FC seems to be fixed in the latest build). I'm asking this because I want to pin down if the bug relate to any of above mods/procedures, and as [MENTION=3146842]HiM@L[/MENTION] mentioned, I'm also willing to sacrifice some mods in favor for stability, cos the performance is so awesome in this Rom already.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] TJSteveMX:
The only issue I found on latest builds was the brightness not working properly, when that happens I also have the rotation issue, but a hot reboot seems to fix the issue.

Unfortunately I can't speak for titanium since I don't trust on restoring data from such app anymore (since nougat).

Restoring data (specially from system apps) can guide you to lag issues and apps to FCing.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] ~~Tito~~:
The only bugs I have are the ones that are already present in the rom. I was only going to backup the data from a couple apps, but I never backup all app data. Bugs do occur when you restore.

I am running the latest build with Magisk, Xposed, and Gravity Box. When I flashed the latest build, all I did was format system and cache in TWRP. Then when it booted I deleted app cache with Titanium.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] killer86th:
Agree, I also avoid backing up & restoring system apps, I only use TB to back up data only (none apk) and restore them after redownloading from playstore, thx u guys for the input, I'll just toggle hot reboot as a quick fix for now.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] hovnovice:
I have some issues with Play store not installing or downloading full apks.

It does automatically it only after i reboot the phone ...Anyone has same issue please ?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] HiM@L:
just close Playstore from recents and open again.

kinda known issue in this phone but will eventually stop doing that.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] hovnovice:
Thank you, I did but it didn t help...In the settings of Playstore they say something loke this rom not certified and that s the reason Playstore dont behave normally.

Maybe I should disable and re enable...
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] HiM@L:
that's normal.

did you close the Playstore and also remove it from recents ?

usually close and removing Playstore from recents and opening again fixed this.
