Flashable package for Google Backup.

I think it should work ... but I did not test it since I don't use Google Backup myself ...

So someone should try it ...

Just flash on top of the ROM. It will only add things.

Can someone help me with the Configurable installer file.

the steps I made:

1. Made an wordpad document with the apps I want and dont want and named it googlewiz.config (automatic makes it an .rtf file (also tried .txt), or should it be another file format?)

2. booted in recovery, and wiped everything for clean install

3. pused the goolewiz.config file to sdcard through adb (adb says ..mb was pused on sdcard so everything seems good)

4. installing rom

5. but when setting up, I see that it didn't work.

I know it's a bit of a noob question, but i'm pretty new to this way of installing.

flashed the rom over and over tonight hoping I got it working I didn't.

Thnx for the help

Mag ook in het nederlands ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] AndrzejDwo:
Once you've installed the rom the GoogleWiz.config file is created automatically on /sdcard. So you can edit the file (open as text) in the way you want using one of those file managers:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lonelycatgames.Xplore

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.alphainventor.filemanager

At first make a copy of the config file to another directory than /sdcard, then edit (do not leave empty spaces), reboot to recovery, move your edited file to /sdcard and dirty flash the rom. Now it should work.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] :
Haha yeah.. That's what I was thinking.. Btw.. I think 5 hrs is more than OK... Never had more

[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Barthlon:
it shouldn't be .rtf or .txt or any other text format. it should be .config :) when you're saving the file choose the option of 'other *.*' or something like that. and if you're on windows, make sure your explorer shows file extensions. that will come in handy ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] AndrzejDwo:
I have tried the backup zip and it seems not to work. After flashing the zip I cleaned cache of Google services framework, Google play services and Google drive.

Google backup remains unavailable.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
Make a TWRP backup and try a clean install; on the first install screen it should ask you if you want to install from a backup ...

It might be that a dirty flash of this package simply does not work ... but I have not tried it ...
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] AndrzejDwo:
Ok, I will test it another time. Just wanted to confirm if it works or not. I will give it some time and check if there is new backup copy in GDrive. Personally I rather TiBu it's saving a lot of time compare to GB.

Hi

Sorry for this noob question. If I dirty flash v82 over v81 will I lose my app settings, Nova home screen layout, etc? My main reason is I'd like to get back the galaxy effect AOD, and I see it's updated in v82.

Thanks in advance

v83 (2018-10-05):

- update: Google: maps, translate, play store, dialer, messaging, photos, music, plus, youtube, drive, keyboard, drive, play store, calendar, dialer

- update: Swiftkey

- add init.d script for scsi cache control

- trim caches during boot

- disable the lookup logic involved with IO merging requests

- optimize read/write wakeup thresholds

- small wifi optimization

- gps.conf file update

- updates to LS99sysctl script

- moved ramdisk patches into init.d scripts

- extra clean script at boot time

- set swap to ON by default

Previous releases had swap disabled. I have re-enabled it at the cost of a small performance penalty. But apps should be held longer in memory. If you want to disable swap, then put "swap=0" in the googlewiz.config file and reboot.

It should be possible as of this release to install another kernel.

I have only tried with the stock kernel.

After flashing a kernel you will loose root. You must reflash the file Magisk.zip (this is included in the ROM in the directory called "root"). Unzip the ROM zip file and you will see that directory.

https://mega.nz/#!nRh2BISa!oo_RwChVPm7InZuWr10F82X36ri8hVRjRVyWFQeebLA

If you flash v83 then you must flash the zip file in attachment on top.

Yup, was just about to report, kernel issue indeed:)

LOL :laugh:

selinux (and I was interested in playing with kali nethunter....) Although, Nethunter seems to work fine on NX as well...so... guess I'll stick with NX :)

Opps, forgot to mention, upon install of NX; swap=0 does indeed work great!

Cheers:good:

Report on swap: I spent the day using swap...For now i'm proceeding with swap off; for me, it's very close race between the two settings, but I do feel like it is ever so slightly snappier with swap off AND because I haven't run into any issue where swap off has disrupted my multitask usage yet.

I do appreciate though having the option to toggle between the two though as I may decide to change my mind again in the future. I didn't encounter any lag with swap on either.

I am on v83 and magisk manger don't open?!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] cantenna:
I ran into that issue as well; for me it was caused by a module update. There is a Magisk Manager tweak by VR25 for enabling/disabling modules in recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] imzaki1994:
so how can i aplly this tweak or is it a different magisk manger apk ?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Baalzeph:
Its just a feeling. I think the rom is more responsive with swap zero.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] cantenna:
Bugger; swap just re-enabled itself after a subsequent reboot. This is with NX kernel installed. Will VI it next

Edit 2; still rebooting with swap enabled.

Will try vi next

Update;

tried

$ su

# dos2unix /sdcard/googlewiz.config

# reboot

still boots with swap on.... Maybe its just me though (I did dirty flash...)

Same problem, after installing YouTube Vanced
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Baalzeph:
Hi,

I push stock rom to latest cri5. Then, after installing v83 : camera is broken. Googlewiz config didn't install all instructions.

After installing v82, wipe/data/sys and factory reset (not format data). All is ok for v83. (i didn't update my twrp to the last version, don't know if the patch is required.

Just want to give feedback after my issues.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
Uninstall and reinstall...did you do clean flash?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] cantenna:
I use substratum here; no issues at all after upgrade.

Try checking SU access for substratum in Magisk

update; swap=0 is working for me now.

Had to jump through a number of hoops but it all seems to boil down to the brief affair I had with velocity kernel.

To fix, I had to;

1) Disable slinux enforce by re-flashing velocity kernel and setting to permissive option (had to delete velocitysettings first)

2) Install NX kernel, then Magisk

3) Revisit my googlewiz.config file (I moved swap=0 to 1st line and I did notice I had a trailing space on one option as well that needed deleting)

All good now on NX :fingers-crossed:

Anyway to disable swap by other means? I tried

Does the system auto force enable swap in the event ram is used entirely? Maybe I have added too many priv-apps / enabled accessibility for too many apps.

Very cool xposed tweak that can be used for this; sudo hide.

Use it to hide any app from google play service or play store; select an app, the select google play services & playstore. I use it to freeze updates on substratum and it themed apps.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
It's perfectly fine to get updates from the play store for the Google apps which are in /system/

If you use substratum however, it might be that the existing overlays conflict with the updated version of the upgraded app (or even substratum theme not supporting the upgraded version yet).
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
That can be done a lot easier ... go to play store; click on installed apps; select an app; then click on the 3-dot menu (upper right) and unset the "auto update" flag.
