[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] 850T5m:
It's twice now I try to flash this ROM, every time I do I get a bunch of force closes and issues with all my apps.

Anyone else having this problem?

My currect error is: com.google.android.gms.common.app.GmsApplication won't run unless you update Google Play services.

Half my apps in the App Drawer are called com.google.xyz

Webview isn't isntalled, nor can it be updated/installed from the Play Store

I tried reflashing completely 100% stock OOS img, then flashing XXX with no debloating options. Still same issues :(
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] UniX1rm:
I don't have this issue, however, I did a dirty flash on OOS that was rooted before.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] 850T5m:
That's what I did the first time, had a bunch of other issues like missing keyboard, no webview, couldn't install webview, chrome wasn't being seen as webview, all my apps were force closing

Weird :/

Hey guys I messed up.

Was trying to install ROM, but wifi was broken. So I began to mess around and now...

I'm in bootloader mode and not able to flash anything.

info is:

Bootloader Version - BLANK

Baseband - Blank

did try to flash signed stock.zip but always shows:

Updater process ended with ERROR: 255

Error installing zip file

:crying:

Okay bro fine...
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] xXx:
thanks very much for that hint! :good:

Also for all others who installed the Google Dialer and don't get the popup window on incoming calls or don't get any caller picture and other issues.

Please follow this:

- make it the standard phone app. Otherwise there will be no popup when receiving calls.

- enable permissions in Android Settings > apps > Phone, including Modify System Settings.

- allow "draw over other apps" permission.

- wipe Playstore data if Playstore don't provide Google Phone updates

I will also add those to the Important Notes in the downloads section.

in TWRP, click on reboot button and it tells you which slot you are currently using and the choice of booting to A or B.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] xXx:
xXx NoLimits is independant from a/b partitioning as it's purely a Magisk Modul. The Magisk modules are located in the Magisk image file which is located on the data partition. As there is only one central data partition for both slots it doesn't matter on which slot your system is currently active.

BUT, without a correct working Magisk, non of the Magisk module will work. So you have to make sure that Magisk was flashed on your current active slot.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] magnamentis:
i think he takes xXx as ROM when someone said flash ROM while in fact it's not a ROM, flash ROM means flash 5.1.8 again including all the necessary steps like re-flashing TWRP etc.

[MENTION=3826312]M@zik[/MENTION] you have to provide way more details
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] M@zik:
Thanks I understand now. Got the option in TWRP. Some knowledge to me.

STill the issue with installing xxx Limits module is there.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] amulbaby:
Can you post what steps you are following, exactly?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] M@zik:
I understand. Thanks for sharing this. I would like to actually understand where I'm going wrong in installing this..

---------- Post added at 06:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:56 PM ----------

Thank you guys for trying to help me. below are complete details of what I am trying and steps I'm follwing:

I am new to this thread and OnePlus 6. I had installed Magisk and TWRP and Xposed already. And now trying to install this xXx NoLimits 2.3 ROM/Magisk Module.

1. I have installed Official TWRP for enchilada from dl.twrp.me/enchilada/

2. I have MagiskManager 5.7.0 app installed and I have installed Magisk 16.4 zip from the Magisk Manager app. With this configuration itself I had flashed the xXx.NoLimits 2.3 module but I don't see any changes at settings>About Phone. Also everything is at the same OOS 5.1.8 as it was before flashing this module.

I noticed whenever I install Xposed zip; Magisk Module Safety check fails. Is this normal?

3. I downloaded the 240MB package kept in my sdcard. Downloaded the xXx.limits.profile file edited as per my req and kept in sdcard/xXx folder.

Now rebooted to twrp and flashed the xXx No Limits 240MB zip simply. I noticed it flashed successfully going through each and every configuration setting as displayed in the console. I also noticed at the end saying something like Flashed successfully. Result [ ]

Now I tried both the steps one by one:

3.1 Then I rebooted directly to System without flashing anything and it started. I see no change. In Settings>about also there is no change. Its still on Oxygen OS 8.1.0 and Build Number A6000_22_ 180614. Screenshot attached.

3.2 This time I flashed Magisk 16.4 zip just after flashing the xXx 2.3 module in twrp and rebooted to system. Still No luck. I see no change. In Settings>about also there is no change. Its still on Oxygen OS 8.1.0 and Build Number A6000_22_ 180614.

I would like to actually understand where I'm going wrong in installing this..

Additional Info:

When I click on TWRP>Reboot: I see Current Slot: B and asks me to boot to which slot A/B? which I'm not sure.

-- I tried clicking on Slot A and noticed It's stuck on One Plus boot logo. Help me understand why?

Now I went back to TWRP using the hardware button combination and this time selected Slot B.

Please help me understand where I'm going wrong. What else I could try? What other information I should share here..

[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] foomanjackel:
If magisk is installed, then open magisk manager app and in the menu, click on modules. If xXx was installed succesfully, then you should see xXx NoLimits and Busybox modules listed there.

Also, in "about phone" > under "Build number", it would say "xXx_NoLimits_2.3_OP6_Oreo8.1"

Also, as was explained already by xXx and magnamentis: xXx is actually a magisk module (difference being that it MUST be flashed via TWRP instead of just in the magisk manager app).... so do not install magisk again after flashing xXx ! After xXx installs, just reboot phone without flashing magisk.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] SelfElevated2:
Waiting for my OP6 in the mail. This will be my first A/B partition phone. Seems really stupid you cant dual boot it. If you could i wouldnt be seeing all these soft brick posts.

Seems much more complicated than the old days when you had

Boot image

System

Data

Cache

Dalvik

And you could flash all you wanted in twrp without over writing twrp.....

My question im wondering now is does wiping data wipe your internal sd card? Ive always kept a folder on my SD card specifically to hold Rom zips and if i ever bootloop i could flash another zip or restore nandroid. Is this not the case anymore?

But this is also my first phone with no ext SD card. Samsung locking bootloaders means no more Samsung for me.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] magnamentis:
i still don't understand what your problem is and i still suspect a wrong understanding of what you're flashing here, so i try:

a) OS is 5.1.8 not 8.1.0 _ 8.1.0 is the android version not to OS version

b) why do you expect a magisk module to show/alter anything in about ?

if your only issue is that there are no changes in "about phone" you just expect something that will never happen and doesn't have to either.

if you want to know whether changes applied properly you have check the features and settings where available and see whether they are there in the first place and if yes whether they're set properly.

THIS IS NOT A ROM, it's a MOD, perhaps this little difference which BTW is well explained in the OP is key to better understanding?

since this misunderstanding it it is one, evades me a bit hence i'm a bit afraid that i got your point wrong. to me all looks well from the distance, what you did was ok and how things you mention look like appear ok to me as well.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] amulbaby:
From what I can understand, slot issue has been since u flashed TWRP.

What I would do : Backup stuff, Download an Flash stock OOS 5.1.8 , temp boot to Twrp, flash Twrp.img and Magisk 16.4. Ensure it boots up on both slots. Flash xXx 2.3.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] AshraafAzhar:
When you click wipe data from TWRP, its only wipe data partition excluding /data/media/0 which is the directory of your sdcard, so your rom,kernel,magisk zip in there will survive.

Tried it already when im switching rom earlier.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] M@zik:
That exactly is the problem... Once I reboot after flashing:

I see both Busybox and Xposed installed as modules in the Magisk. This is expcted bcoz I selected both these in the xXx.NoLimits.profile. However, I don't see the xXx.NoLimits as a module installed in Magisk. Neither I see other settings configurations as per OP. Also, at System>About I see the same Build Nos, Oxygen OS 5.1.8 and Android 8.1.0 . No mention of xXx.Limits anywhere. I noticed Samsung Gear installed. I am still not sure whats happening. This is very weird.

Sorry, if I'm sounding novice, I actually am here at OnePlus 6 thread was earlier using OnePlus X and used to seamlessly flash install cutom ROMs Lineage\AOSP using TWRP. I understand those well.

But with OnePlus 6, I am facing trouble.

I'm simply trying to install this xXx.NoLimits module to start off with my XDA adventures in my OnePlus 6. and I'm not able to.

As mentioned above, I don't see the changes as mentioned in the OP. No xXx.NoLimits module installed in MagiskManger app.

Could you please point me to the thread where I can download and follow the steps to flash the Stock OOS 5.1.8

[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Dioser:
TWRP can be flashed after stock to keep TWRP. In advance of first reboot, as Will stay in TWRP after stock flash. If you do not flash TWRP here. Then you have to fastboot
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] LazerH:
Do i have to boot up a clean installed OOS at least once before flashing it or can i just flash it right afterwards?

Would like to: Full Wipe -> flash OOS -> flash Magisk -> flash NoLimits -> Reboot
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] champ_goblem:
If you have twrp installed, you can do all of that and then after flashing OOS you can reflash the twrp zip from their official site and then you can keep twrp really easily rather than needing to use fastboot.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] LazerH:
So u mean to do it that way: Full Wipe -> flash OOS -> flash twrp.installer -> reboot recovery -> flash Magisk -> flash NoLimits -> Reboot because else i would be stuck with stock recovery?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] champ_goblem:
Do you want to do a full wipe because its not needed, if you do you might need to have a usb and otg because if you wipe data partition you will loose the files you put on the device or youll have to sideload the files in twrp and adb or reboot to clean oos, set it up again and the sideload via usb as normal.

The fastest way for a fresh install is to have all the necessary files on a usb stick that you can access from twrp then you can simply:

Reboot to twrp, wipe partitions, flash oos, flash twrp installer, flash root, flash NoLimits and any kernels you want.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] meistr91:
TWRP wipes external storage (download, and everything else) only if you select so. You can select to wipe everything but exclude external storage which is having all your necessary files .

I have another question, can i wipe randomly dalvik/art cache or cache in twrp?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] XsniferX:
Hi does anyone have the same problem. When someone call me it doesn't show it only vibrate. And when I make a call noting hapend on the screen but the call is make. So I end up with any possibility to hangup the call
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] meistr91:
My google dialer acts the same now... When i try to call nothikng is changing no caller screen, but the call is going i can tell it from a earpiece. Yes, and there is no possibility to hang up.. my dafault app is set for phone app. All premissions enabled, over the apps and everything whats needed.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] champ_goblem:
Yeah you should be able to, when you install xxx it wipes dalvik anyway, but sometimes wiping dalvik solves a few problems with crashing apps and such.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] magnamentis:
there is no dalvik, it's ART
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] XsniferX:
Definitely there is some problem going on with the 2.3...

Went back to 2.2 and the problem is gone. I have a working OOS dialer
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] amulbaby:
I suspect it could be xposed that's causing issues.

Can you try not to have xposed n flash xXx 2.3?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] ramihtp:
Upgraded from 2.1 to 2.3.

Might just be a placebo but wow! Seems to be a huge performance improvement! My OP6 runs butter smooth!

Getting great battery in conjunction with Franco Kernel. Everything is working great!

I originally flashed Dalby sound but it was too inconsistent for me, so I dirty flashed again without it, and now the phone runs like a dream!

Thank you for your incredible work!

New Oreo based Version 2.4 is available for Download

Simply dirty flash over previous version

Changelog for v2.4 [for Oreo 8.1] Rom base:

xXx ChangeLog:

Updated Google Dialer to latest stable v20

- now automatically make the Google Dialer the default phone app

- now automatically set all necessary app permissions

- Google Dialer should now work out of the box right after flashing NoLimits

Fixed the individual bootanimation.zip flashing option

- just enable the "Bootanimation in xXx Folder" option place your custom bootanimation.zip file in the xXx folder

Added an information line when flashing which indicates which xXx.NoLimits.profile is used

Important Notes:

xXx NoLimits must be flashed with TWRP

Working Magisk in place is a must requirement

OOS Stock Rom with basic android setup must be in place already

Sometimes you selected for example Google Maps to be debloated but it's still there. In fact, the system files are actually debloated but the Playstore already found an update for Maps and installed that as user app. In this case just manual deinstall it and it will not appear again.

[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] jajaj01:
I noticed that if flashing xXx at the same time as flashing OOS update, if on slot_a, OOS would flash to slot_b, but i would be flashing xXx to slot_a. therefore booting into b and having no xXx module. after flashing OOS, in twrp, reboot, reboot the other slot to twrp, flash magisk then xXx.zip, reboot, worked for me

Hi [MENTION=1030560]xXx[/MENTION],

May i know how to get live wallpaper to work?

Thanks.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] xXx:
I just restored a clean 5.1.7 installation and then flashed 2.4 and everything worked fine. Also Google Dialer and Contacts was named and working fine. Playstore updates worked as well.

Then I restored an older 5.1.8 installation where NoLimits v2.2 was in place and did the same check and all worked fine.

So, either your installation is messed up. You might have other Magisk Modules running which don't work together with the NoLimits modul. Or you flashed zips which are directly modifying the system partition. In this case you need to dirty flash the 5.1.8 OOS installer again to come back to a stock like system partition again.

EDIT: Also, a general advice. If you want to flash zips like fonts etc. in TWRP from other device threads it will most probably not work and even might make you system unstable as most of the zips are not designed to be flashed to a/b partitioning devices. To be on the safe side stay with Magisk modules. They flash to the correct folders and don't modify your system or vendor partition.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] xXx:
Install Google Wallpapers from Playstore

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.wallpaper

then Download the PixelWallpapers apk from PranavPandey and install it as user app

https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=673791459329059021

then goto Wallpaper setting of your launcher, select Live wallpapers and that's it
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] xXx:
that is correct. If you flash OOS, it will always be flashed to the other slot. So in order to flash Magisk on the correct slot you would have to reboot to the other slot after flashing OOS and flash Magisk there.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] JahSam:
All good for me, V20.0.198798071, picked option 2 for google dialer only.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] XsniferX:
With the 2.4 only the Google dialer work. For those who want the OOS dialer how to get it work?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] xXx:
don't install the Google Dialer and use the phone as you always did. The OOS dialer is the default dialer when you don't install the Google dialer. Except enabling call recording nothing is touched by NoLimits on the OOS dialer.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] XsniferX:
OK. Currently i have : GoogleDialer1 = 1 ; GoogleDialer2 = 0

I will try unistalling the GoogleDialer App from the Phone and set Both value to 0 and see if the OOS working

Thanks
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] xXx:
you don't have to remove anything. Just set both dialer options to 0 and reflash NoLimits. Then everything is back to the OOS default dialer
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] XsniferX:
Ya perfect it working fine now. thanks :good: my bad i though like in the 2.2 the Google Dialer can working along side with the OOS Dialer.

Did you guys figure anything out? I'm getting the same and have no other modules installed.

I followed the steps but when I click on the live wallpaper it says app isn't installed. Weird.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] magnamentis:
that makes totally sense, everything except roms and os updates that you flash will be flashed to current slot while as hinted, roms are flashed to alternate (non-current) slot.

solution is first update the rom, boot into system and flash everything else after that, that way you shall have everything in the right slot

EDIT: Ninjad obviously already mentioned in the mean time, however a reminder of this little fact can't happen often enough at current state of A/B learning curves ;)

I just remove it with root uninstaller. Installed Google dialer from xda thread. V20. Working good. Something is weird with latest update. I got bootloop, but when I removed one of magisk module - Dolby axon7 bnc its booted normaly. So I cant use dolby bnc magisk, always got bootloop. I can use integrated dolby in v24. But it is older version. Axon7 bnc was better with more options, nicer and newer look. Maybe dev can update it..

If I am on custom rom(renovate ice 3.2) and i want to clean flash to xXx, what are the steps to perform a clean flash? If it just enough that i do factory reset, wipce cache, dalvik cache and system and the flash the rom?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] magnamentis:
this is not a rom, hence all flashes are dirty so to say

Closest thing to a clean install would be to clean flash OOS 5.1.8, root with magisk and flash xXx over that if that's what you mean
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] aswinrulez:
If I am already on latest OOS, is it enough i factory reset and then flash xXx?
