Hi,

I have an issue with the ROM. I tend to disable mobile data when I'm not using the phone to save battery and disable notifications from apps (my phone's wifi is broken so I have only mobile data). However, when I want to use the phone again and turn the data on, I notice that some of my apps can't connect to the internet (I've seen timeouts in logcat) but everything is fine after I reopen the app. Does anybody know how to fix that?
[P8lite Android Development] milotmorina31:
Can i install this rom without unlocking bootloader?
[P8lite Android Development] tralph3:
No, you will never be able to install anything without unlocking the bootloader. I made a guide that explains how to do so for free if that's the reason you're asking.

Is there a way to do check of md5, a link without OTA with md5 for example? Anyway I have always trouble with updating in twrp. I must do more caches clean and often re-flash. 1st time I had panic because stuck on logo and no boot. While battery going low and without system it don't charge. Wonder if wrong md5 and not old flash file because I must cancel it for space.

It's working for me. You must have done something wrong. You should always make backups, and you should always blame yourself if this stuff happens. It took my phone a while to boot, be patient.

Yes i test every builds before release. Automatic installs from ota updater might break something, so I suggest to download the packaged and flash it via twrp... It is stored in /data i think.
[P8lite Android Development] Dan Sufho:
I had the same problem as you, but I restored the backup I made before updating and then tried to update again and this time it worked. The first time I tried to update, I had my phone connected to the computer, maybe that caused the issue.

I'm sorry for overreact, yes I flashed again, this time clean flash. Just lost some accounts and logins since Google cloud restore don't restore all data in apps... Thanks man, this looks faster
[P8lite Android Development] DarkJoker360:
My advice is to save the previous build and in case of bootloop just dirty flash it. This is a tip I use on every device when i flash something ;)

Hi all!

I am trying to get microg working on this device but cannot, I have problems with signature spoofing. I am using the NanoDroid method: https://gitlab.com/Nanolx/NanoDroid .

I manage to deodex services.jar and pusht back with adb, but then when I try flashing the NanoDroid patcher, it gives the message that services.jar is correctly deodexed, but then I get error 1 and it exits.

Has anyone managed to enable signature spoofing with this ROM and got micrg working?

Thanks to the dev BTW, the ROM is perfect!
[P8lite Android Development] zkoz:
Do deodex manually or use patcher not both.

Ps: fdroid store has great app to check if signature spoofing is enabled. Name is Signature Spoofing Checker.
[P8lite Android Development] ghoppa:
Hi zkoz,

Yes, I didn't notice that the patcher now has the deodexer included. In the end I got help from the Nanodroid official thread , which gave me the advice to try the Beta version.

From my previous log I had this error: "CANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE "/system/bin/patchoat": "/system/lib64/libcutils.so" is 64-bit instead of 32-bit".

Strangely enough when trying to apply the patcher without deodexing I got the same error, I then tried to manually deodexing the services.jar, as I did before, and then the beta version of the patcher worked!

Hi. I have Huawei P8 Lite ALE-L21 (not 2017), Android 6.0 and EMUI 4.0.3, I want to upgrade to Android 7 but I don't know how.

Hi everyone:

The first thing is to thank [MENTION=7019289]DarkJoker360[/MENTION] for the EXCELLENT WORK for this ROM that for me is the most stable and functional that I have tried not only for the P8Lite. My thanks and respect to [MENTION=7019289]DarkJoker360[/MENTION] ..!

I come from the European ROM stock with dual SIM. I am using kernel 3.10.108-gb021b368 with the LineageOS 14.1-20191224-UNOFFICIAL-alice. I have not had to flash additional firmware, everything works correctly.

I have only installed the pico-OpenGAPPS ..! The rest of APPS that I have needed, I have preferred to install via Play Store, for example Google APP, Google Maps, Waze, etc. .. this for makes Android Auto work correctly. I connect to the car, and use Waze / Google Maps or make calls using Google Voice without problem, everything works correctly. Also calls works using bluetooth, not only by cable..!

I tried this phone that already had something abandoned. In a couple of days of intensive work with two SIM cards, (work SIM and private SIM). Two trips of 300 kms each, using Waze, Google voice to select routes and make calls, more than 4 hours of hands-free conversation without any problem. FULLY FUNCTIONAL ..!

I am impressed by how well this ROM works ..! Thanks [MENTION=7019289]DarkJoker360[/MENTION] ..!

However, a simplicity was lacking that could allow me to turn OFF the SIM of work outside working hours and to continue enjoying this rom with the personal line. I dare to ask if this option would be possible to have it, :fingers-crossed: because out of working time it is not pleasant to be contactable. And if it were possible to automatically program the ON / OFF hours it would be a reason to lose your mind .. :D

I do not want to extend more, THANKS, THANKS for spending time so that others can enjoy.!

By the way, the donate link does not work ..: :confused:

From the south of Spain, Greetings ..!

[P8lite Android Development] DarkJoker360:

Nooo, of course there is no option for automatic disconnection scheduled. It was a wish or a dream (I used an emoji in the little joke), but I would be happy to keep at least the option of being able to disconnect it manually. :o :angel:

Bluetooth LE Not supported

I installed the ROM lineage-14.1-20191224-UNOFFICIAL-alice.zip

Everything works fine except BLE.

It cannot discover and pair with my watch.

I have installed the Bluetooth LE Scanner app and it says "Bluetooth LE Not supported".

When I had the Huawei ROM (Android 6), the watch pair well.

How do I activate BLE?

Thanks.

[P8lite Android Development] Boeserfleck:
thanks for the great rom!

1. My phone don't get into deep sleep if wifi is on but not connected. Is that "normal" on this rom?

2. "System (media.codec)" is the top battery consumer on my phone. does anyone have the same problem? any advice?

3. The scrolling on the twitter is very laggy/not smooth. on my old moto g (2013) it was much better. can I do anything about that? (It's not important. Twitter lite works fine.)

Also, writing on my SD card with my phone is busted for some reason? I can read the data of the sd card no problem, but any app that tries to write to it crashes. It's specially annoying with file managers. I find the problem to be that the windows that needs to pop up in order to give the write permission never pops up. I'm talking about this by the way:

That never pops up, so it's normal that when an app tries to write to it, it crashes. Any fix for this?

---------- Post added at 05:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:44 AM ----------

Well bootloop happened (was lazy to flash again) after 20 minutes booted to system, just need alot of patience and I guess no bootloop
[P8lite Android Development] doctor-who:
What is this??

Never saw that before in battery usage
[P8lite Android Development] doctor-who:
It drained my battery from 86 to 44% in less then hour
[P8lite Android Development] tralph3:
If you connect headphones that have a mic, when disconnecting there's a chance the phone doesn't detect them as such, and the rom gets stuck in a "headphone in" state. So, all sound is directed to the jack meaning the speaker doesn't work until you restart the phone to get it unstuck. I know this is a known bug that was mentioned a while ago, but it happens very often and its really annoying. Any fix planned soon?
[P8lite Android Development] tberma:
I can't install this firmware, is it because I don't have Vodafone model variant?
[P8lite Android Development] DarkJoker360:
You have to flash it via TWRP !
[P8lite Android Development] tberma:
So I need an unlocked bootloader via DC unlocker `cause I cannot downgrade the android version of Huawei/ALE-L21/hwALE-H:6.0/HuaweiALE-L21/C40B515 to android 5 to root it without flashing zips since there is no rolling back package for this cust.

p.s: I replaced motherboard last time when I bricked my phone trying to change the device model while the problem was from TWRP version that had not the function yet for installing stock firmware. YOU GOTTA UPDATE YOUR TWRP LINKS TO BETTER TWRP VERSION LINKS, That caused Hard Brick to my phone and I got to replace the motherboard and now to repay for a bootloader unlocking code.
[P8lite Android Development] tralph3:
I think it's rather stupid to worry about this, but in any case, do you know if Lineage security updates cover this?: https://news.sky.com/story/a-billio...eing-hacked-claims-consumer-watchdog-11950927
[P8lite Android Development] rusiu559:
Which one is for ALE-L21?
[P8lite Android Development] davidkejzlar:
ALE-L21 is unlocked version for Europe (and can be both, single or dual sim), other types (ALE-L02, ALE-L23, ALE-L04, ALE-UL00) are for other markets, or branded versions.

Odds for single, even for dual, so if you have single sim, ue B895, for dual B896. You can also change single to dual sim, but it's little bit complicated.

That's a known bug of the rom, it happens on all Android 7 roms, DarkJoker is working on this rom still so it may or may not be fixed at some point, but there's nothing you can do at the moment other than flashing the stock rom or an Android 6 one.

I'm back using your rom.

So far it seems like you haven't been able to fix the two biggest issues I had: crappy recording videos even when using Footej and weird bluetooth behavior when connect to my car stereo and to my HiFi.

Any way of working around any of these two issues?

Thanks in advance.

Can you make update to work without bootloop? And why offline charging can't be fixed?
[P8lite Android Development] john3voltas:
[MENTION=7019289]DarkJoker360[/MENTION]

Could you please clarify, in detailed steps, how it is we are supposed to install an OTA update?

I believe you mentioned the download would go into /data. Well I've pushed the download button watched the download finish successfuly but when I press the button to update, the rom kind of does something for a few seconds (unpack a zip?) and then the phone reboots but the update doesn't apply. Done it twice in a row and I am still on February's rom.

Then I decided to reboot to TWRP and do it manually but when I go to /data (internal storage or SDCard???) there is no *.rom or *.zip or *.img file.

So what is the proper procedure? How is it supposed to work?

BTW, another 2 question that are not related.

1) When I flashed the rom I forgot the wipe steps.

If I wipe now I loose everything installed so far, right? What is the proper way to backup the apps settings? Usually the phones come with a backup app. Lineage doesn't. Is there a way to backup, wipe the phone, reinstall the apps and restore all their settings?

2) I see that there's no FM radio app bundled. Is there a free open source app that we can use? If not, what would be my next best choice from Google's app store?

Thanks in advance and stay safe.

Cheers
[P8lite Android Development] DarkJoker360:
Updates are stored in /data/lineage_updates

U can use TWRP backups or Titanium backup

Tunein radio was a great app when I was using FM

For dirty flash you have to wipe only cache and dalvik

Rom never had a single bootloop as of now.

For off charge, well, I never try to debug it but will grab a logcat in April.

OpenGL 3.1 or 3.2

Hi DarkJoker, can you please add OpenGL 3.1 or 3.2 to the Mali 450 MP GPU on ale-L21?

The post meant that [MENTION=2335078]surdu_petru[/MENTION] made a change into alice's code after a lot of time !
[P8lite Android Development] tralph3:

Hi, I've just finish to flash the ROM and can't get more than 1 line of signal. Anyone has having this issue before?

I've follow this steps for installing the ROM:

1. Flash B896 from TWRP (with Dalvik and Cache wipes before the flash). Then reboot to load the ROM.

2. Flash Lineage ROM (with all the wipes instructed in the first post). Reboot again to load the ROM.

3. Flash Magisc and Gapps.

Is the only problem I'm having so far.

Looks like it's a really great ROM.

Happened to me also. You need to download stock firmware and put in sd card, then to open back of your phone (gently) remove battery then put it back, hold those 2 buttons to upgrade (flash stock rom) now I forgot in which folder you need to put that firmware but you need to create it on sd card, please someone help about folder name

Dload I think should be named folder.

Update us with your result and don't panic. Once again let someone correct me if Dload is not ryght name for folder where firmware should be

And you will need screwdriver for removing battery, its not big work but you must be gentle :) and remember where is which screw been
[P8lite Android Development] tralph3:
The folder mus be called "dload" (all lowercase) and inside there must be a file caled "UPDATE.APP". Then, press all three buttons of the phone from power off state and let if flash.
