[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DragonFire1024:
It's really sad Amazon is misleading customers with this hack job. This can really screw things up on a user app level. Anyways, they butchered the apps to external sd card option by removing the values in /system/etc/permissions/platform.xml. to fix it, you have to edit the platform.xml file, and can only be done with root...for now. Copy the file to storage and use the text editor in your root explorer to make sure WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE looks like this.

About DireWolf Kernel

DireWolf Kernel is a new kernel and it works on both Redmi 4A and 5A. It is developed to give the maximum in every aspect of the device. I added governors, i/o schedulers, various other things to get the maximum out of the device. It supports spectrum profiles and also has a lot of other stuffs that tweakers like.

Infinity got vacuumed, but we're saved by DireWolf! Long live [MENTION=9105890]LordShenron[/MENTION]! :good:
[Xiaomi Redmi 5A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] syndrm:
Bro do you already have the best setting for our riva with this DireWolf kernel?
[Xiaomi Redmi 5A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] LordShenron:
Infinity will be missed a lot :(
[Xiaomi Redmi 5A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] ezrawk:
Nah mate, I haven't found my sweet spot yet. Well Dire is spectrum compatible so for the meantime go with spectrum. I'm not using spectrum though. The only significant thing I've done is just set the max freq to 1651 and min freq to 200, deactivated CC (core control), turned on autosmp Hotplug and rewrite the the interactive governor's target load to "1 200000:90" to make sure it drops to 200Mhz when my phones idle. Maple was set on default (thank LordShenron for that) and now we have westwood (total bliss) as TCP. Oh I did change entropy settings, I don't know why in Infinity it had a big difference in snappiness, but when I changed the read_wakeup_threshold to 80 (def 64) it speed up my 5A a lil. Haven't seen major difference in Dire though, maybe it's not needed, but still I'm holding on to 80 :D

I don't know if this is right (havent have the time to read the logs or dmsegs) but I think with autosmp on, sometimes it makes the device hard to wake up (from sleep) and there was this one time (yesterday) that when I was on the road with music on, the player just played choppy sounds as if the my phone was slow (no heating issues though). So I rebooted and it didn't happen again. I don't know what happened back then, but I don't see it as a bug because after that it didn't since I rebooted the phone.

Try finding your own sweet spot on dire and post it here, I'd love to implement it too :) :highfive:
[Xiaomi Redmi 5A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] LordShenron:
It got spectrum support, i already implemented the best settings in that, so just download spectrum app :D
[Xiaomi Redmi 5A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] ezrawk:
Agreed my friend. But I'm really grateful that you showed up. We would've lost updated kernels without your DireWolf. Will be rooting for any development from you. Keep it up, and stay happy mate. I expect nothing more than you doing your hobby. If you got to leave the devs, thats fine its your life and its way much important than anything else. :good::highfive:
[Xiaomi Redmi 5A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] LordShenron:
Yes AutoSMP is little bit harsh. I also found it makes device wakeup a difficult task. But since i found its quite efficient in battery saving so i kept it. Now the choppy sound will most likely be fixed if u add some speaker gain (as i tested). And for the death sleep i think autosmp after wakeup doesn't let the cpus come online, so if after wakeup all cpus come online at the higest frequency there will be no issues. :eek: I will test this soon.
[Xiaomi Redmi 5A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] ezrawk:
Take your time mate, thanks for the quick reply, If I got issues I'll PM you on Telegram or I'll just chat on Catalyst & Dire group. :) :good:
[Xiaomi Redmi 5A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] LordShenron:
Then i think u won't be much happy coz direwolf will also be closed soon as i will be changing device :( But i really hope that someone will continue it.
[Xiaomi Redmi 5A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] syndrm:
Thanks for the info guys, really appreciate it :good: respect!

[Xiaomi Redmi 5A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Che0063:
Thanks for the kernel!!!

Is there any hope of increasing the CPU speed past 1651MHz and overclocking the GPU? I only just installed DireWolf and am going to test the battery life.
[Xiaomi Redmi 5A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] LordShenron:
Unfortunately no, coz i am not a big fan of CPU or GPU overclock, i just overclocked till 1651 coz some users need that. :)

[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Questions & Answers] Eragon.:
I've recently bought a Zenfone Max Pro M1, 6gb, updated all ota and security patched to latest, and it's not rooted.

Now after installing some apps from Google Play Store, and opening them some of the apps freeze and an "app not responding" error a little while later. Outside the app everything is working as usual.

Clearing the data or cache of the app, reinstalling the app, restarting the device or wiping cache partition data didn't help. I've been trying other apps and found out that there are a lot of apps where this is happening. I did some searching but didn't find many others having the same problem on this model.

Anyone else having the same problem?

Try Simple Gallery from Play Store for example. No images are shown in the gallery and it always stops responding for me when I try to go into settings in the app.

Games like Nautical Life or Eden show a black screen whenever the apps are opened and stop responding.

Remove sd card

I had the same problem. Remove the SD card and everything will work as it did before.
[Magisk] rfgamaral:
I have developed this module which replaces /system/priv-app/ContactsProvider/ContactsProvider.apk with another file. But after rebooting, the device is really unstable, popping "android.process.acore has stopped" all the time, the device is unusable like this. The easiest know fix for this is to just dirty flash your ROM, this will fix something (not sure what) and my module will work just fine after this (so far, no other problems have been found).

But this "fix" is cumbersome, makes the module installation complex and time consuming, it sucks. Does anyone have any idea why this is happening and how could this be fixed?
[Magisk] DanGLES3:
This happens because the original apk and the modded one have different dex files thus conflicting with each other,a dirty flash helps because the dex cache gets wiped after an update and the original dex file gets replaced with the dex of your modded app,so my suggestion is to create a script thats executed at your module instalation to remove the contacts provider dex file that is located on /data/dalvik-cache
[Magisk] rfgamaral:
But isn't removing /data/dalvik-cache the same as wiping dalvik/art cache in TWRP? Because I tried wiping all the cache and the problem persisted, if I'm not mistaken. Or is it different?

I'd like to go back to where I was. I have a full twrp backup. I cannot restore that currently due to the aosp being encrypted. You get a bunch of errors.

What is the easiest way to get back to a place where I can simply restore my twrp backup?

TWRP is installed. 3.1.1 I'm assuming I should upgrade to 3.2.2. Curious if that will let me just restore from my twrp backup.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] sefrcoko:
What model do you have? And what firmware version were you on before trying to downgrade? Some firmwares include bootloader updates which cannot be rolled back.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Kenchinito:
I have a N950F and this is the Oreo image I succesfully flashed "BL_N950FXXU3CRC1_CL13094739_QB17155977_REV00_user_low_ship.tar"

I can flash "COMBINATION_FA71_N950FXXU3ARA5" without a problem which is 7.1.1 But I think it's the bootloader that is giving me issues and since the combination file doesn't include a bootloader (AFAIK) it goes through, but when I try to put in any bootloader from Nougat, the flash fails.

I tried flashing:

-BL_N950FXXU1AQI1_CL12007350_QB14830234_REV00_user_low_ship.tar

-BL_N950FXXU1AQHB_CL12007350_QB14652984_REV00_user_low_ship.tar

and both failed. It's important to note that I'm trying to flash the whole thing, not just the "BL" file. I just pasted the BL file name because I think it holds the information you need.

Trying to uncheck the BL, I get another error but also not able to flash. Maybe my phone has a newer version that doesn't allow it to in theory "downgrade"?
