[MENTION=6296775]Dinolek[/MENTION] I flashed this rom now.Thanks for all guys behind firstly.

Physical Homebutton is still not running?Why?It is frustrating.Flashed faq zip.Any idea to hide this navigation keys?I like full screens.

Is this new Oreo twrp is capable of flashing noughat roms ?Is natural su add-on support for root purpose?

[MENTION=5913672]murtaza1326[/MENTION] location always on for Jio .It might cause more heat.Is it fixable on next update?

Checked some videos.Speaker output is ok.

UI and bootup screens is great.Nice speed.

More reviews after some days.

Loved this rom?
[Meizu M2 / M2 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] murtaza1326:
ok lemme answer all your queries

1) Due to some reason Softkeys can be enabled just by disabling hardware keys

or if hardware key (M back key) is enabled softkey will never work

2)yep you can flash Any rom on this TWRP (don't know abt flyme) but I don't think ? it will make any issue

3)modified magisk is available to fix this issue will be available by next update (don't know) but for now if you flash Los via treble GSI image and use los super su addon it will work

4)I said in P.s in my post that enable battery saving mode it will work still which will use wifi+mobile data instead and lower usage of GPS will be result in low heat+long battery life ???

Thanks for other review ???

1) Hmm that's an issue.

Now another issue,i am facing.Connecting phone to power bank ( mi 2i) loses charging connection within 5 seconds.I thought it is problem with my new power bank.I checked it with other phones.No issue.Why this is occurring? Another ?

How can i cover a day without power bank.Please I need a fix.?
[Meizu M2 / M2 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] murtaza1326:
well i have no idea regarding this ? neither i own this device anymore ? but i will forward this issue to dinolek ?

[Meizu M2 / M2 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] adarshm4you:
[MENTION=5913672]murtaza1326[/MENTION] Ok fine.Some nice thing is this rom is,phone is now identified by Google as gionnee M2 or meizu M6 note and playstore is shown verified

So new twrp is capable to flash all rom zips right?

Bro what if hardware(m home key)key is enabled and softkey is disabled.I don't need soft keys.Recents can be controlled by other apps.?
[Meizu M2 / M2 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] adarshm4you:

Today rom itself power off at 22% of charge.It happened when i off and on airplane mode today morning at 22.Issue with power bank is solved now.I think a battery fix may be needed.I will try to get log next time if I can.:fingers-crossed:
[Meizu M2 / M2 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] adarshm4you:
OK guys whenever flashing this rom, always know that this twrp not support connection with computer.So no files can be copied directly for flashing if you do direct twrp flash.And no otg file is detecting in this Oreo twrp.So if any issues encountered with this ROM,always caution about abow.From my use I am in a battery down issue.So I have to get back to RR until that issue is fixed.I don't know whether anybody facing it or not as said on my previous comments.

I've meant the binaries (libs) are 32 bit. Am I wrong? I've unpacked the ROM and did not find any lib64 folder in system or vendor.

Do you mean I can build these custom libs by myself?

One more question is - patching means I have something to patch. Do I have it? ;)

Clone this repo in srcs folder

Carrier unlocked XT1687, bootloader unlocked and with rooted stock potter 25.137.35.

I never allowed the Motorola Security Update to load, I 'd been tapping "Maybe Later" for a week.

On Friday I noticed the "Maybe Later" option wasn't there, so I simply "backed-out".

Saturday morning, the update was shown as completed. WTH??

I did still have root (was able to use root permission apps) so I rebooted but it kept going into TWRP recovery.

Using "start" would allow the phone to boot normally.

I tried a few non-destructive things, no joy.

I finally reflashed the stock potter. As a phone it's working OK

But now..

adb and fastboot seem to function OK, but when I try reboot bootloader commands I get "bad boot" state.

I also noticed the OEM unlock in dev options is gray-out, it may have been that way after the bootloader unlock, I just never noticed?

When I boot into recovery, TWRP 3.2.x main screen just sits there no way past it.

I'm now in way over my head,

Any help/advice is appreciated.

I'm having some screen issues with Firefox. Sometimes the bottom of the screen goes black and the tabs at the top disappear. By using split screen mode I can repair this but it does seem to come back regularly. Strangely enough I can replicate this behavior by using the volume down button (wtf?) when a video is playing on a website. It seems some kind of screen resolution thing, in Firefox it's reported as 1195x747x24 but in Chrome I see 1205x753x24.

Is anyone else having these screen issues with Firefox, and am I right in thinking that it is Firefox that somehow gets the resolution wrong and that that's the cause? Why its also related to the volume button is beyond me.
[Huawei MediaPad M5  Questions & Answers] AsItLies:
I don't know the answer, sorry, but curious if you've tried the jelly (for lineage) browser? You can find the apk by searching xda if you didn't know.

I ask about that because jelly is using the system html rendering, so it may work and be very minimalist. Aside from that, and hope u don't mind my asking, why not use apps when available? I'd expect the app for netflix etc to be able to function no issues. If not, there should be support from them. But ff not playing a video properly? not sure there's much support available for that?

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] thechaoz:
I use my phone for business and it absolutely destroyed my phone. I am losing 15% on idle with no SOT and have tried everything. Letting it "settle", clearing dalvik/cache, et al. I'm not sure if it's apps I use for calling and business haven't adjusted. Either way, I can literally watch it tick away when I'm actually using the phone. GPS, BT, SYNC make no difference and didn't before. My phone was perfect before the update and the only thing that changed was taking OREO.

It's been a long time. I go back to the Beans Roms on Note 2, but I can't brick this phone. Is there any possible way to downgrade from the OTA back to Nougat.? I've spent two days googling and it's pretty unclear between, here, reddit, other android forums. Randomly non ESL speakers saying "yes, did, this software, odin, success"

Can anyone give me a quick rundown of the steps and software versions/Odin versions etc that are known to work. I've flashed many times before but it's been a hot minute since Sammy shut down all our fun with custom Roms. I took my phone off the charger an hour ago, checked a few emails, and it's already down to 72 percent. The thing I show most is "android" system but it doesn't give me any more info. I give up, I have to go back.

Thanks a ton in advance!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] rrupert:
Factory resetting your phone is probably your best option.

If you Odin back to a previous os, it has to be a "3" version. Only issue is the phone will always prompt you to update, and that you will be stuck at that last security update. Which as a business who needs would be undesirable.
