PIP mode on the Magisk "YouTube vanced" works great. Even playback with the screen off, and zero commercials! Highly recommended, I just did a backup of my original YouTube with titanium backup (necessary or not)... Then flashed it through TWRP. And turned auto update off in the playstore

---------- Post added at 06:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:55 PM ----------

I installed this ROM based on this comment. And i can 100% agree, super fast and a ton of features! I actually have not had 1 app crash yet on this ROM either.

I also installed the extended kernel to be able to adjust a few things on top of the Roms features! Only thing I noticed that doesn't seem right yet, which will just take some tweaking is: HDR+ through the Google camera makes my photos black and white. I'm sure I just need to adjust exposures, or tweak something. Not a big deal to me because I didn't buy this phone for the best photos regardless.

Fantastic ROM overall!

Has camera been fixed?
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Banana Joe:
Use the correct Arnova port of Gcam and you will find it wasn't broken.
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] wastedige:
It may or may not be the fault of the OS but it's definitely faulty if not broken. I've tried quite a few versions of ArnovaG8 and focusing is messed up.
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] debdeep98:
Focusing was always messed up. Even on custom oreo roms.

Okay guys need suggestions!

Since i see there are tons of NFC users, and the issue I can't fix it is that its my Dad's phone and no way to test NFC for me,

For the quick fix part we may have to move back to Nougat base? What do you think should i or not?

Also, can anybody go to Nougat base and flash latest build and try NFC please?

Message me at : Telegram (@kubersharma)
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Maxious:
You don't need an NFC tag to test, it's just the NFC service fails to start on startup of the phone even if you have oreo base and you can't enable the NFC option in settings:

It is showing on Sourceforge (below link) that u have updated several ROMs including potter's

https://sourceforge.net/projects/arrow-os/files/arrow-9.x/

with the build name "Arrow-v9.0-potter-OFFICIAL-20181118.zip" dated 18th November '18.

You have not declared it here on XDA, so wondering whether it can be flashed right now or wait for u to make it official.:confused: or announce it here.

:good:love u bro.:silly::laugh:

You should do a clean flash again. Mine's working fine on WhatsApp and Messenger. I'm using the pixel2mod gcam it does have some focus issue but no crashes so far in almst 2 months. As for the jhenrique minimal mod, i used it for a day or two wasn't that bad.

Just do a clean flash and things might work out.

New update?
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] TGHH:
There is definitely an issue with AF on PIE Custom ROMs / Arrow OS. Auto AF is mostly fine but if you set the focus to a different area it starts to fail. Not always but very often. This happens to all Apps I tried (Stock, ProShot, Footej, GCam etc.).

This is not an issue on Stock Oreo.

Should I download the version released today? Are there many bugs, has anyone tried it?
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] hukinni:
I just flashed the stock of oreo, then I made an arrow installation normally (I deleted cache, dalvik, system and data) but the nfc still does not work, the fingerprint works 10/10 but the nfc can not get it to work, I have to do ? It should be noted that I only installed the stock but did not initially configure only the installed maybe that's what I did wrong?
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Bailey4545:
why did you install oreo first? I'm about to clean flash this ROM but I'm on stock nougat. is it only because of the fingerprint? also, what is Potter? how do I know if my phone is Potter? and can I keep my sim card in the tray while doing this process?
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] wastedige:
I've tried it, along with v6, and a few other versions. Focus is unstable regardless. I can provide logs if someone provides me instructions on how to do so
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Dahenjo:
Flashing stock Oreo first upgrades to the fingerprint & NFC firmware that's also used in Pie ROMs now, otherwise those features won't work. See post #3 of this thread for more info & options. Potter is the device codename for the Moto G5 Plus which has three models: XT1684, XT1685, and XT1687, you need to have one of those. No need to remove sim.
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] hukinni:
Do you help me?
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Venomous Viper 119:
Try this... Even night mode is working for me on it and focus is on point too. If camera force close sometimes, just reboot your device.

[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] johnd123321:
When Motorola updated to stock oreo they changed some of the firmware. This rom uses the oreo firmware so flashing the stock oreo rom first makes sure you have that firmware first or your fingerprint scanner and nfc won't work. Potter is the codename of the Moto G5 Plus (NOT Moto G5S Plus). You can keep in your sim card.
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] catharsis724:
NFC was never reported to be working on Pie ROMs reliably. Please try an 8.1 ROM for NFC.

same problem on 11/19 build

at least on the new update the volte icon shows up
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] kash664:
Volte icon showed initially

The latest update showed volte and HD icon immediately after flashing, but after few minutes it is not showing.

Also sometimes call don't connect from sim2. I have to disconnect and call again, then it starts ringing.
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Ookamix:
Ok so I should clean flash stock oreo, and then dirty flash arrowos over it? Or clean flash arrow os again? I mean ore will be gone if I clean flash arrow os after that. So how does that work?

Is anyone else experiencing "CALL FAILED" immediately popup when trying to make a phone call? It seems to have been introduced with the 11/18 update. It usually works right after reboot for a single call. Trying anything after that will lead to failure and require reboot to work.

Agreed. Focus looks much more solid than anything else I've tried recently. Thanks for the referral!

Wiped everything from TWRP. installed latest TWRP for g5+(3.2.3.1) I installed your latest ROM, the opengapps nano from telegram group(20180905 version) magisk 17.1. I am getting super slow wifi and the wifi stops completely when i am streaming audio through bluetooth. earlier, in the kubersharma version, i got FC in google app but i dont face that issue here. I had similar issue with the last kubersharma version as well. And also i dont get autocorrect on the AOSP keyboard!!

So, i installed the first version of the rom yesterday. Till now it's smooth and bugfree for me. The volte patch also works. Hungarian Telekom and Vodafone. Battery life is good, better than the 8.1 based RR or the stock rom. I'm happy with it. Perfect as daily driver.

Running Nick's latest: no recents crash using lawnchair launcher, have full Wifi connectivity & speeds while streaming BT music/audio (haven't tried w/calls), default camera is working, and the default kernel is Optimus_Drunk_Potter for those asking. Thanks to all the Devs involved.

My only problem with all versions of this ROM was texting suggestions were only proper names from Contacts with no common words. Couldn't find anything in settings to fix that, so installed & switched to Gboard keyboard which solved the issue.

i have the same problem with making a second call and i submitted a log

update: i reverted to the 11/12 version and now i can make a second call but the data connection drops completely during the call.

also i tried to revert back to stock nougat, then clean flash the newest arrow and it was still unable to connect the second call.

update #2 use fastboot to flash & erase the modem from the stock nougat fastboot files using these commands to regain calling but you will loose volte.

fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin

fastboot erase modemst1

fastboot erase modemst2

The funny thing happened.

18.10.18 New update has been released.

I manually searched for updates on my phone, but the system found nothing.

I downloaded and installed it manually and searched again. There was not any update.

20.10.18 The system gave me a notification, that the new update from 18.10.18 is available.

I downloaded and installed it again, but notification is still not disappeared, even after manually searching.

i used fastboot to flash the modem files from stock nougat and calling works fine minus volte.

these are the commands;

fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin

fastboot erase modemst1

fastboot erase modemst2

this is the guide i copied the commands from

https://xdaforums.com/g5-plus/development/twrp-flashable-stock-builds-t3813351

you could try the fastboot oreo stock rom or installing the firmware from the flashable stock oreo rom but i didnt try that method yet.

update, after fastboot flashing the oreo modem i dont get the call failed error anymore but my speakerphone didnt work.

I flashed a previous Nandroid of my Arrow OS setup that is actually from 11/13. Everything working. I'll update my Google apps sans Phone from Play Store going forward, methinks that the error is likely stemming from recent updates to the Phone app and it isn't widespread enough for Google to either care or fix it since the pct of people on Pie is likely still negligible.

I've been using arrow for about the past three weeks and it's been great. I've been on the 11/19 build since 11/20, and didn't get the "Call failed" bug until about an hour ago... About an hour after I read about it on here! I'm also not getting phone calls.

I'm super frustrated, since if I can't reliably user my phone for phone calls, it's just not going to work for me and I'll have to roll back to stock or find some other way to make things work. If anyone knows a way to fix this short of an updated future build, I'd love to hear it!

I love the Android ROM community and I've really loved lineageOS and Arrow OS, but I always end up having to go back to stock because of pesky little things like this. Fingers crossed that this will somehow get fixed soon. Maybe I'll just have to reboot my phone after every call for a while?
