I found the issue, it is cause when you select not to install chrome, you must include it and then it will be fine

It is cause for not having chrome ?same happened to me

Aha ... finally my Google Backup is doing something ... after approximately 24 hrs it has now backed up my contacts.

Let's see if it can do more :p
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] zxspectrun:
I am noticing laggy animations, could it be due to the swap option and could I disable it without reflash?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
No, nothing to do with swap. Nothing has changed in this area.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
OK ... OK ... now my Google Backup is also running. Seems it failed due to deleted /data/log/ directory.

I can see the backup in my Google Drive.

Full fix will come in next release. See screenshots.

android@localhost[/]# bmgr list sets
37093bffc3a649c0 : Pixel 2 XL

I removed accuweather from the phone, then installed it again and then:

android@localhost[/]# bmgr restore 37093bffc3a649c0 com.accuweather.android
Scheduling restore: Pixel 2 XL
restoreStarting: 1 packages
onUpdate: 0 = com.accuweather.android
restoreFinished: 0
done

So it succeeded in restoring my accuweather app settings !

Thanks for the response, but I already figured out that this was the problem. :P

I think this v build is a painful one? and not on side of foobarr. I have ****ons of updates here and there daily. Thanks google imo. When i push googlewizz rom, 1st day's best day.

But these updates messing the work.

Don't know but i feel i'm Wright.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] alan9820:
I faced two problems

1. Before i am using older build, there is no problem with flashing SmartMirroring, but now i got FC after flashing it.

2. I found whatsapp issue everytime when i reboot then open whatsapp immediately, it prompt that i need to restore the last backup. But if i wait for around a min. after reboot, it works fine.

Did i do anything wrog?

Thanks

hello everyone, Idk if this was asked before but i cannot mount data after flashing the rom.

I did format data before installing the rom, which let data mounted; But after I set up the phone (no additional app install yet), I went back to recovery and see that data cannot be mount again.

Hey, guys! Thought some of you might find this interesting: https://www.google.com.au/amp/s/9to5google.com/2018/11/12/samsung-one-ui-galaxy-s8-note-8/amp/

Looks like we're getting One UI with Pie. :D No porting needed. I imagine this might be a tad difficult for you, [MENTION=3463514]foobar66[/MENTION], if you decide to upgrade the ROM to Pie if you're still working on the ROM in half a year's time. It'd be a pretty big overhaul.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Journyman16:
Try a Search in the thread - this has been discussed and AFAIK, resolved.

Is the Google Assistant bug specific for this rom?

I tried searching, but couldnt find an answer.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Journyman16:
You'd have to search on other ROM threads and see if they have an issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] KnoxOx1:
Hey foobar,

this may get off topic a bit but I got curious about a statement you made a few months ago. You claimed you would stop this project for the S8/+ once you would get your hands on the S10/+. But now I wonder why you wouldn`t go for the Note10. I myself still am deciding whether to buy the S10 or wait a bit longer for the Note10. As I`m pretty vacillating right now, I would also like to know your, a developer`s, perspective. ^^
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Journyman16:
I'm not a dev but I'm thinking very carefully about my next phone. They are locking them down too far and given many of the companies are NOT selling to mostly enterprises, I don't trust the reasons.

Already there is code in there which means your phone can be tracked when off, turned on and functions activated while not actually showing any signs it is on. I think I'm going to have to backpeddle and look for the best phone I can get where I can still drop the battery out.

I'm not any kind of crim (criminal) but our pollies (politicians) and Govts (governments) are, and I'd rather NOT have them able to track my every move and transaction.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] alan9820:
Do anyone facing this issue? pls... i really love this ROM but these two issues seriously on me...:crying:
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Barthlon:
quite unlogical to think that you can't be 'tracked' with another choice of phone. and uhm, i hope you only pay with cash, you don't have any customer/discount cards and you always go on the street with a hoodie/cap?

sorry for the offtopic:eek:
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] :
I have a small question.

I'm used to Google wallpaper changing everyday using the wallpaper app. However on the latest release. There's no option to have the wallpaper replaced automatically.

Am I missing some setting?

I hope someone can give assistance.

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] mfitm:
Just wrap your phone in aluminum foil when you are out doing your non-crim activities :D
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Journyman16:
:fingers-crossed: :fingers-crossed: Well it may never come to pass, but it's also part of the reason I like this ROM so much - anything that distances me from the 'official' SW from a company determined to lock away their phone from the majority of their users is a good idea.

And how hard would it have been to simply release an 'Enterprise' version of their phone - say the dual SIM ones.

/OT

In the meantime... latest version is working well - I had some strange results dirty flash on v87 & v88 - things like TiBu failing to find superuser, PhoneINFO FC'ing repeatedly and other weirdness.

No idea what was going on but clean flash of v89 sorted it. :D Well, most of it - Device Management has disappeared again and smartmanager =1 is in the config file... le sigh...
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] gzdc:
On your next update (cause November patch is out) please check this think with screen mirroring also.

This is a great rom but the camera doesn't work for me. It always says camera failed. Any fix?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] :
Search.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] GeorgeChilian:
I did but I couldn't find anything to help me. I clean flashed 3 times and every time the camera would say camera failed. Would a log cat help?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] mfitm:
Have you flashed the latest firmware?

If not you can download it from http://www.renovate-ice.com/firmwar...Flashable_G95xF_FD_Firmware_TWRP_CRJ5_r13.zip
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] GeorgeChilian:
I flashed the firmware and reflashed magisk but still no luck. :(
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] :
Reflash kernel. Then Reflash magsik.

Reflash kernel. Then Reflash magsik.

Kernel is not firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] GeorgeChilian:
I fixed it by dirty flashing v82 then reflashing v89

This is the fastest rom I've ever used on an s8. Made me realize how much bloat Samsung adds to its phone.

Not going back to bloated rom ever! :) keep it up devs!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] _sbth:
I concur. The work [MENTION=3463514]foobar66[/MENTION] and the community have put into this without even a donation is extremely commendable, and I'm thankful every day when I unlock my phone to see a buttery smooth experience.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] ole12:
Yo. Anyway to make autobrightness adjust more often or better?

I often have to untick/tick the auto brightness, because the screen is often to dark or too bright.

That something i have problem with a few release. And it starting to get annoyed.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] mfitm:
Try resetting the auto brightness usage pattern (under settings -> display -> auto brightness)

[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] ruben1502:
I have the same issue
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] GeorgeChilian:
Install V89 then dirty flash V82 then dirty flash V89 again. This worked for me and the camera seems to be better, especially in Snapchat. This is a brilliant rom!

[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Baalzeph:

[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:

[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
Well ... bad news ...

I broke my S8 screen over the weekend ... bummer ...

There was a very small bump in the screen on the side (nothing major) and suddenly it became a very big crack.

Official price for a new screen: 259€ ... repair by Sammy service center in Brussels.

That is almost ridiculous ... one can buy a new S8 (mediamarkt) for 439 in Belgium (not the cheapest price, first one that comes up for me in a google search).

I'm ditching Sammy ... once more ... love and hate at the same time.

I will make a release with the November security patch tonight.

Not sure what will happen after ... I'm thinking of switching to another phone ...
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] AndrzejDwo:
No way man, we can't let You do that! ?

[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] xxxPLETTIxxx:
I would donate as well for this fantastic Rom to keep it alive. Tell us what you think of it, [MENTION=3463514]foobar66[/MENTION]
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] gzdc:
I would donate also, but if there is a possibility that today's update is the last one please give us preinstalled the mirroring ability thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Journyman16:
Is it just the glass? i.e. does the screen still work?

If so the replacement is about $40+ AUD plus labour. You only replace the LCD digitizer if the display itself is cracked and your description doesn't sound like that.

I fix screens for a hobby and while the digitzer for an S8 is expensive the glass isn't.

And if you open up a gofundme I'm pretty sure we can get you the money to get it fixed - I can't afford much but I would donate and I think most of us would.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
The screen is still working. I will check with the Samsung service center on Saturday. See what they say.

To be clear: it's not about the money ... I can pay for a repair ... but paying €258 (officially quoted price on the Samsung vice center website) for a phone which I can buy for €420 looks a bit ridiculous. Then I'd rather spend that €258 on another phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Barthlon:
wow. whatever the outcome is: please let us (or at least me :) ) know what your next phone will be. i will take that into consideration while choosing my new phone! :)

v90 (2018-11-20):

- update: Google: pay, play store, dialer, maps, files, news, dialer, photos, chromecast, calendar, contacts, slides, messaging, play services, youtube, search, plus, trips, chrome

- update: Samsung device maintenance

- update: Samsung camera (v8), CMHprovider

- update: dss script for disabling services

- new: PixelBridge app (for Rootless Pixel Launcher left swipe)

- camera supports taking selfie by touching heart rate sensor (enable in camera settings)

- change in build.prop for Google Backup to work

- add /system/bin/bmgr to interact with backup manager via cmd line

- fixes for Google Backup

- pixel style navbar instead of AOSP

- November security update (G950FOXM4CRK1)

If you do not want to use Google Backup, put "googlebackup=0" in the googlewiz.config file.

Phone, contacts, messages now have their own dark theme. Note that these might conflict with some dark substratum theme. Not much I can do about that for now. Wait until the substratum themes get an update.

https://mega.nz/#!fdYBHIga!IH-yTP9xNrG4LjPe2_Rzy_145wcBnHQDTv23QG2-xIo

Since this is a new base, suggest to do a clean flash.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] _sbth:
Well, I understand where you're coming from. You can afford it -- especially if we were to donate -- but you don't want to support Samsung by paying such a dumb price. That makes sense. I'm with you on that one. I'd still donate, though. You've made my day-to-day life much more tolerable, and I'm extremely grateful. Thank you, foobar.

One last thing... ;) Magisk Hide doesn't work (according to some sources, it's because it's a system app, and one in priv-app no less. Any advice for that one?

EDIT: Specifically, the "Hide Magisk Manager" button in settings. The one that repackages the app.

EDIT 2: Looks like an old bug has returned. Calendar and Inbox won't set up or sync. They error out. Any knowledge of how to fix this before you pull the plug on the project? Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Journyman16:
Well it's a curved screen to remove so that's a bit extra work to ensure they don't damage the digitizer (LCD) but a decent repairer should be able to do it for around double the cost of the new glass - maybe 100 Euro tops.

Sad news, loosing our favorite dev...Anyone to continue this amazing work?

Any advice for a similar rom ?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] ole12:
I had to pay 350uds to fix my broken screen (got a refurbished phone in return) few months ago. If the 6T where out then, i would deff buy it.

Using that kind of money because the screen is curved, dont justify it since S8 is an old phone now.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] tRIACTIs:
Well... I cracked my screen just jesterday and loosing GoogleWiz is another reason to get a new one (after 3 months... wow, good job Samsung, never ever broken a screen before...).

Just in case the whole thing proceed quick, thanks again for your amazing work! I allways buy my phones by technical and optical criteria since there is allways a custom ROM matching my needs (and yes, I always check ROMs on XDA before buying).

Last thought: OnePlus hm... interessting...

[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] gdfpkcng:
I need some assistance, I did a clean flash from v78 to v90, before flashing, I updated my TWRP to 3.2.3-3 (I also flashed the no-verity-opt-encrypt 6.0 though) then I flashed the v90, after I flashed the v90, it just went dark, it doesnt want to boot up, only black screen after the "Samsung S8" logo, did I do something wrong or I missed something, thank you
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Baalzeph:
Me since V89.

All google backup deleted..

Unknow phone in google settings. No sync Agenda. My apps in playstore were unpaid :( (for playstore, reboot twice, my paid licence is ok), strange.

Tips : i rolled back this morning to another rom (my bloody eyes, cry), with google backup fully functionnal. I backedup directly.

Returned on Googlewizz, my apps are correctly updated now.

I think that removing googlebackup past month had deleted all (except maybe contacts) our datas on the side of google (ie passwords).

Maybe, my issues are due to my jump on newest samy firmwares (CRJ5 then CRK1). Dont'know

[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] zartlas:
Dirty update to v90, lot of issues (magisk freeze, gmail open & closed stating google play services have issues) ... rollback to v89 with TWRP backup so will stay with this version.

I'm aware you recommend clean install with v90 but as google backup seems not working (option is available but seems on hold trying to backup and when trying manually, it says "unable to backup"), i don't want to spend too much time to reinstall/setup everything so i'm happy to stick with the nice v89 :angel:
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Baalzeph:
V89 was in same state, freeze for magisk, but calendar shows past events, V90 no events at all (even 1st january is a common day :) ).
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] AndrzejDwo:
In my case clean install v90 things that doesn't work:

-Google backup/restore,

-call recording,

-play store certification,

-Gmail and calendar sync,

Everything else seems to work fine.

Edit:

Call recording works after reinstalling the app (before it was restored with TiB)

Syncing fixed with updating GP Services

Still working with G backup and play store certification.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] AndrzejDwo:
You are not an edge case because repacking magisk manager wasn't working since I remember... Maybe it's because magisk is patched in this ROM. What do you need that for? Magisk hide works perfect for me, no need to repack the manager...
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] _sbth:
Ingress Prime. It runs on that same stupid engine as Pokémon Go, which does some super suss stuff to discover root. The only that stops it is repackaging the app. Using the old version of Ingress won't be viable when they phase it out.
