it is a very nice looking plugin, but is it possible to change the tabs like contacts to another launcher?

If 2 or 3 tabs (on a total of 6) aren't usefull on a non-phone device, I won't have it on mine.

ok worked until I changed the theme color with mobile shell 2.. now only a seperator and free space where the plugin should be.. but I think there are better programs out there right now especially ultimate launcher ;)

Hello

I've looked through the settings many many times, and I can't figure out how to get notifications from apps (whatsapp plus, Bluemail, Textra) to appear on the sleep screen- the black screen that shows the clock and battery percentage. The stock messaging app will post an icon to that screen when a message arrives, but no other.

Does anyone have any suggestions? I have a bla-a09 US variant running version 119.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] mhamdto:
Only stock apps (message, email, call etc) appear on the Always Display Information screen. Other apps like WhatsApp, Facebook etc won't show there. This is how Huawei's software works.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] TeenaKohli1986:
Its absolutely catastrophic to see that how Oneplus 6 customer care is looting their patrons. I bought oneplus 6 on launch date in India and one fine day while music was playing , screen went blank - Absolutely blank.Those all rest of functions are working fine. It wasn't dropped anywhere - There are no scratch even on the screen and now when i sent to customer care - they found some broken LED inside and putting a blame on me . I asked them that screen doesn't even have a scratch or there are no impression on body anywhere on this which they mentioned that its my problem and shamelessly denied to replace the fault LED and asking me thefty amount to replace the faulty device.

I am so upset to hear on this and I am planning to file a law suit now , because its upsetting to see that even if mobile doesn't have any kind of physical damage proof how can company put a blame of user on internal damage . There are no scratches, no imprint and display just gone !!!

I feel cheated and looted and I am seeking help to escalate this matter further .
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] v4uluv2004:
You don't have accidental damage protection enabled which came complimentary?

I never had any such issue with service of oneplus.

I had complimentary adp on op3 and intentionally broke my screen after 6 months of usage to see how things work with servify.

Registered request on app and they mailed me an insurance claim form.

Submitted the phone to service centre and got my phone back after 3 days with a new display.

Bill was of Rs 9600 but all I had to pay was Rs 750.

Zero hassles no questions asked.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Rishwanth:
Me too

I too claimed accidental replacement plan.......but i didn't intentionally break it
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] TeenaKohli1986:
How to do that ? I bought the mobile from Amazon .. I dont remember having such protection policy coming as complimentary !
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] -Ric-:
The issue is, displays CAN 100% crack on impact even if the glass itself doesn't get a single scratch. There is no way to know for sure if you dropped it or not and it is physical damage so you're out of luck... Also, let's be real, you ain't filing any lawsuit lol.

I'm sorry but I don't think there's anything you can do.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] TeenaKohli1986:
Yeah I am being real .. that I will be in couple of days if i wont get the required !!! Aint up for this kind of money and sick device manufacturing !!!

Thanks for Empathy
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] -Ric-:
Don't take it the wrong way. I definitely hope that somehow they fix it without charging you. However what I told you is true. Displays can crack underneath the screen even if the glass itself is 100% like new. You might be telling the truth but there is no way to verify it. They have absolutely no way of knowing so yeah... Maybe try reaching out to their social media staff through Twitter or FB and politely ask them if they can help you out. Other than that.. there aren't many options.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] TeenaKohli1986:
Hi, I am not taking it in a wrong way either ... and I understand the technicality also .. What made me frustrated is there customer support is even worse.. I asked them to give me atleast some waver off since its not my fault either as my phone has no impression of fault and its a big amount to ask for.. but they give a dead ear .. Its so upset .. I never had any issue with iphone before ... This incident left a bad taste in my mouth . On other side yeah I am trying to escalate on social media .... Let me know if you know other strong medium of escalation where they can act on my plea
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] v4uluv2004:
Well Oneplus provides ADP with every phone. It started with Oneplus 3.

But you need to register that within 15 days of your mobile purchase.

No matter you buy from Amazon or Oneplus site you do get that ADP with both.

Just visit the oneplus 6 page and see the offer section you will find the ADP one listed there.

[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Gr8man001:
OP Customer service in the USA is a joke. Luckily, I had a much smaller issue of ordering a new OP6 along with a tgsp directly from OP but I ended up receiving the screen protector all shattered (possibly damaged in the transit, phone was fine). Customer service tried to blame me. I countered their blame by asking how do I know that you did not send me the broken screen protector? They said, " We will never go this." And I said if you don't trust my "never" why should I trust yours? Filed a claim with Paypal and got the refund. I don't think their customer service reps are properly trained or have an actual authority to make decisions. Well, when you buy a top notch phone at a cheaper price point, something got to give and in this case it's customer service.

Common Issues

Thanks to [MENTION=2557531]starcms[/MENTION] for helping with the instructions.

No touch in TWRP in Step 9.

Keep your phone connected to computer. Open command prompt/terminal/powershell.

Now we are going to install TWRP installer zip.

Command Pormpt

adb shell twrp install path/to/zip

So, let's say you have twrp installer zip (named

twrp-installer-mata-3.2.3-0.zip) in root of internal memory.

adb shell twrp install /sdcard/
twrp-installer-mata-3.2.3-0.zip

This should flash TWRP to both slots. Now, you can reboot using

adb reboot bootloader

and go back into TWRP. Check if touch is working and then set your slot to one noted in step 5.

If touch is not working use fastboot (step 8) to change the slot to that noted in Step 5..

Now boot back into TWRP using volume rockers and proceed to Step 10 (flashing Magisk zip)

Terminal/Powershell users please add ./ before the adb.

[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] aer0zer0:
Nice write-up. I would also maybe add (to your discretion ofc) that if you flash the latest P BTS, it flashes to both slots, making touch unusable in twrp and will need to follow your addendum.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] munchy_cool:
Done. Thanks for the advice :highfive:
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] YunolexDDP:
Uh I...have a new problem. I use "adb shell twrp install" to install twrp-installer-mata-3.2.3-0.zip and it seem to work...but later I flash the stockboot and flash magisk. Than I cant boot into the system. It reboot itself to the stock recovery when it finished booted. And told me cant start up the system and two options down below "try again" "factory reset"

Is my stockboot file is incorrect?
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] munchy_cool:
recovery is part of boot image. if you flash stock boot, twrp is removed.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] YunolexDDP:
Yeah i know but now i wonder where goes wrong with my phone

Seem my English is not very good so....I dont know how to search the key word

So..I wonder if you have seem this situation before.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] munchy_cool:
after installing twrp zip, if you instal stock boot or new kernel it will remove twrp.

you have to flash twrp zip after installing new kernel.

to root, boot into android once after instalinh twrp zip.

then boot back into twrp, and flash magisk zip.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] YunolexDDP:
I am pretty close it. Now i have my twrp install in one slot and the system can boot from another slot but uh..

do I need to flash stock boot before I flash magisk?

cus now I still cant boot the system from twrp..

the official website said "use the devices as normal" hmm..

I need to change the slot if i want to boot the system. Is that normal?
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] munchy_cool:
NO you don't need to flash stock boot to instal Magisk.

yes, you need to change slot to boot system.

all of this is mentioned in first post.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] DeimosPhobos:
i have a question, is there a way to just boot into TWRP to just flash magisk? without flashing TWRP itself? i want to recive OTAs still and all i want is just magisk installed, i tried the ,ethod of patching the boot.img but that was a huge fail please help!!!
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] aer0zer0:
No.

We don't have fastboot boot
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] DeimosPhobos:
Ahhhh ok,

I figured out the patched boot image method, although when I tried to make my own patched boot IMG, it didn't work, I found a Reddit thread where someone had done it, I used theirs and it worked....although the command was supposed to be fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img and Everytime I did that it sent it to B, but failed on the write, they yelled at me saying that's the command and it should work lol, but I had to actually put fastboot flash boot_b patched_boot.img....the damn A/B partition stuff confuses me Alot lol
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] munchy_cool:
sometimes older fastboot versions dont work well with Essential.

for ab slots, if you are want to flash magisk pre-rooted boot.img

just do

fastboot gervar current-slot (say you get a)

and then flash boot.img to current slot.

fastboot flash boot_a nameofboot.img
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] aer0zer0:
essential's driver package for windows doesnt require _a,_b unless you are being specific

fastboot flash boot whatever will work and flash to the current slot if your using essentials (which is an older version) if your using a newer version from google or minimal, it gives the __a or b error trying to append an extra underscore
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] munchy_cool:
true, but not everyone is on Windows :highfive:

Anyone can install magisk from twrp in 8.1?

I had following the instruction to install twrp. (find current slot a, flash twrp.img to b slot, change to b slot and press down to recovery, install twrp.zip to both slot, change to a slot and reboot to android, reboot to recovery and install magisk 17.1 zip,reboot)

Everythings is good except install magisk 17.1 or 17.2.

No any error in twrp when installing magisk but I can't go into android. It stick in circle more than 10 minutes! (that should be bootloop?)

update:

16.7 can install in twrp:good:

and can update to 17.1 using magisk manager lol

No idea what problem is it lol
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] munchy_cool:
glad you got it worked out.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] izzyfanto:
Thanks munchy for your video, I commented a few days ago about unrooting by flashing stock boot.

-Flashed stock boot for my Jul-Aug build

-Then flashed the TWRP img and then switched to other slot for zip installer

-Tried booting, just sat there and spun.

-Wild guess, went into TWRP and flashed Magisk. Rebooted fine. Whew. Why is that?

Next I tried updating:

-Flashed Oct OTA zip in TWRP update. Install went fine.

-Tried rebooting immediately into TWRP to flash Magisk, but TWRP was gone

-Repeated TWRP install procedures, reboot and all my data present.

-Rebooted to TWRP and flashed Magisk

So overall successful, but

1. confused as to why it wouldn't boot until I reflashed Magisk

2. confused why TWRP vanished. I thought this was supposed to be permanent. Did I do something wrong?

Thanks again for your help, finally updated to Oct with the notch settings back :)
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Twrp is in boot, so if u update with an ota zip, it changes the boot.img and then one must repatch the new said boot.img aka kernel with twrp and or root. So, it is permanent to whatever kernel you patched with it. So, new kernel, new twrp patch must be installed. You can modify your fastboot script so it never changes your patched boot.img if u want so in theory your twrp is forever, but why do that...
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Alaric323:
Hi everyone, after attempting to install TWRP over the October update, I'm having a few issues. After flashing the boot image, TWRP doesn't have touch support, so I follow the touch-less install method. However, even after rebooting via ADB, TWRP still doesn't support touch afterwards, so I can't use it to change my main slot. Attempting to change slots in Fastboot reports "the device doesn't support slots" and shows a current slot as nothing.

Any ideas?
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] munchy_cool:
are you sure you have the correct fastboot? you were able to flash TWRP to inactive slot, right?
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] galakanokis:
I will add that my fastboot seems a little off on the new October update, I no longer get slot info like I did yesterday before I installed the update using the fastboot images. But, when you are done sideloading the twrp installer zip, boot to the bootloader and switch slots (fastboot set_active other) and then boot back into recovery. You should now have twrp on your active slot with touch.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] izzyfanto:
Gotcha, thanks for the info! So after flashing OTA, then TWRP installer to patch the opposite slot the update went to, and then Magisk after that, then reboot and done?

Also, does this mean the OTA flash activates the opposite slot that I'm in, which would mean the just deactivated slot still has TWRP and the new active slot doesn't until I patch it with the zip? Still learning this A/B thing :)
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] munchy_cool:
TWRP flasher zip patches both slots.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] izzyfanto:
Ah yes you're correct. I knew that though, I was just meaning since the new active slot had the stock boot that the zip re installed it. The TWRP I'd be in to flash the OTA already has TWRP since I'm in it, yes? Or does the OTA screw that slot up too?
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] munchy_cool:
AFAIK you cannot take Essential OTAs once you flash TWRP.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] izzyfanto:
Are you referencing the actual OTA through the official updater? Because I'm not talking about that.... I'm talking about flashing the OTA in TWRP
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] munchy_cool:
yeah, I was talking about taking the OTA from Essential and not sideloading from TWRP.

I have not tried sideloading from TWRP so I cannot comment on that.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] spotmark:
The Fastboot files from Essential are sideloaded. The OTAs come in the form of a zip and can be flashed in TWRP like any custom ROM.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] aer0zer0:
Works like a charm actually. Super convenient.

Flash ota in twrp

Flash twrp zip (you have to patch new boot.img)

Reboot to recovery on new side

Flash magisk and or custom kernel

Reboot to new OS

Persistent TWRP makes life easier
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] TheBurgh:
Do you need to reboot to recovery on new side? I did all but that and all was good.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] izzyfanto:
Yep that's exactly why I did, very simple process. It automatically updates the active slot so when you reboot to recovery it'll take you to that new slot's TWRP.

What's the main reason people are using fastboot to sideload the img? It seems like that is more steps than just using TWRP and the zips
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] aer0zer0:
Mostly it's scorched Earth all of the images, in case you get superhosed.

I myself do it.

But yea, it is easier
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] izzyfanto:
Gotcha that was my guess but wasn't sure. And I assume that fastboot is the only way to flash a custom kernel, right?
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] aer0zer0:
You can flash .img files in twrp too. But in order to get twrp, you need to flash it first in fastboot. Once you have twrp, you can do just about anything in twrp.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] izzyfanto:
Ah that's right I knew that duh! Sorry for the dumb question.
