Which dolby version? (Where did you get the zip) I'd be surprised if you find a dolby version that works. Maybe dolby+

The issue may be the apps you're trying to install. Anything other than dolby?

Dolby version Arise Sound System Dolby Atmos And Viper for Pie.

This dolby? https://xdaforums.com/android/software/app-dolby-atmos-axon-7-oreo-port-t3740508

That definitely won't work on Pie. There are no Pie ports of Dolby. If you read that thread you'll find out why - it's not that they haven't tried. Even on Oreo it's hit and miss, some devices/ROMs work, some don't.

For Viper your best shot is probably https://xdaforums.com/android/apps-games/app-viper4android-fx-2-6-0-0-t3774651

Just download that one from XDA Labs.

Personally I stopped using Viper and use JamesDSP instead. That + Narsil (and AML to tie them together) sounds fine.

[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] sliding_billy:
I will be happy to, but I will not be able to tell a difference in decryption since that phone has not had a full reset since the key change. It has decrypted fine through updates.

Flashed boot.img to get back to unrooted and stock recovery. Pin for security. Fastboot boot twrp-3.3.1-0-blueline.img. Decrypted fine, but as I said this phone never lost decryption since it was never factory reset since the key change. Installed twrp-3.3.1-0-blueline.img with ramdisk method. Booted to recovery. 3.3.1-0 present and decrtpted. Installed Magisk 19.3, and booted with root. Installed ElementalX 1.10 with EX application. Short of factory reset, I can confirm that all is working as expected. Thanks [MENTION=2638973]bigbiff[/MENTION].

P.S. 3.3.1-2 for Crosshatch worked the same. I have done a reset of that one, but have the test version you posted a while back on that one so Decryption wasn't an issue on that either.

[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Surge1223:
Same issue, in fact it says that it can't decrypt 3.0 blobs or whatever when on 4.0

Then adb logcat shows it looking for keymaster 3.0 but can't find it present, while keymaster 4.0 is.

I know that vague af, but It was the first boot after compiling for Aug patch and I wanted to see if did blobs right.

Fwiw it twrp does work and decrypt...sometimes. Other times it will ask me for a pin even when I've never ever set a pin lol I tried the default pin, that was a no go as well.

BTW I CAN access /data/media and that's where twrp thinks my internal storage is now? I think that was intended iirc for logs.

I'll send logs in a bit.

While upgrading to the August security release, I decided to also upgrade twrp to the latest 3.3.1-.2.

In the last few days, I've discovered that when I go into TWRP -> Wipe -> and swipe to factory reset, occasionally, TWRP deletes the contents of /data/media, rather than only /data/. It doesn't happen every time though. Are others experiencing this? If so, does anybody know if the TWRP devs know about this?

Thanks!

[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ktdt00:
I had something very similar using 3.3.0-0. I did a swipe-factory-reset prior to a TWRP restore. Restore failed writing the /data partition. Rebooted to recovery to try again and TWRP no longer asked for my pattern. Restore failed again as before. Best I could determine from a couple hours poking at it was that /data/media was still there but either encrypted, or more likely corrupted, either by the factory reset or by the failed restore. Had to do a factory image with -w followed by the restore. Got my system and all apps back but lost a little data but most was cloud sync'd.

[MENTION=2638973]bigbiff[/MENTION] is there a test version for Android Q? Since TWRP got updated for Android Q on OB1 and since the two phones are using A/B partitioning, was wondering if you managed to make significant progress including the ramdisk option in order to install TWRP through magisk.

Thanks for any info and good luck!
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] slothdabski:
I'd imagine there going to be quite a bit of bringup that will take some time due to Q switching to logical partitions

Holy crap... Thought it was already kinda worked around... Was thinking of buying the pixel 4 even ^^' without TWRP, gonna be really hard to deactivate the magisk modules that bootloop and all... Snif... Im sure they'll find a way :)
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Tulsadiver:
I hear you. I'd be okay without it if I could manage those magisk module bootloops. Factory reset is just about the only way for a SystemUI mod bootloop.

Edit: well, you can sideload the magisk-uninstaller.zip
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] slothdabski:
Can't you flash stock boot image so the magisk module causing the bootloop don't get mounted? That doesn't require twrp since it can be done in fastboot
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Tulsadiver:
You can get back to stock but as soon as you root again, you bootloop again. As I edited in my last post, you can sideload the magisk-uninstaller.zip. That should do it.

Edit:. No, that still doesn't work. I just tried it.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] sliding_billy:
I also thought (though I haven't done it) that you can push a Magisk reset file with ADB that runs on boot?

well nothing i do has worked so far...

nothing i do will get me back to recovery... fastboot boot twrp.img doesnt work, brings me to bootloader... using the button to get to recovery, results in bootloader again.

Looking like a flashall is my next step, unless someone else has any other ideas?
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] bggold:
Go simple first.

Try first flashing stock boot.img to both slots.

Fastboot twrp

Flash twrp.zip and magisk only and see if that works.

If it does boot use Franco app to flash the kernel if possible.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] c_86:

[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] spotmark:
As I mentioned earlier, until recently, that's the way we had to do it on the Essential phone. I've become quite content doing it that way. I've had phones in the past that I tried to flash on the fly and something went wrong. Then I had to go without a phone until I could get home. So, being plugged in when you flash something definitely has it's advantages. Also, with the Essential phone, I could flash the factory OTAs in TWRP. It doesn't work with the Pixel so I need the stock recovery to flash the OTAs. I like to flash those because they install without wiping. It's not a big deal to edit the -w out of the image files, but it just goes a little quicker with the OTA.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] old_fart:
I did not have touch on twrp reboot. Could not put the pin in

Touch works for me but not every time.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] superchilpil:
I get what you're saying but TWRP has everything to pull you back out if you bork something. If you get flash happy then you can just flash the base rom back on, or use a backup to get back where you were. As far as OTAs it might not work now but TWRP is fully capable of flashing OTA zips. I've been using TWRP since they started implementing Touch on older HTC devices, and since then I've only needed a computer for two things. 1) to flash twrp in the first place and 2) to update the firmware.

[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] sliding_billy:

[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Didgeridoohan:
Are you talking about /data/cache/.disable_magisk (to enable Core Only Mode)? That won't work on a stock recovery.

As far as I know [MENTION=4470081]topjohnwu[/MENTION] is planning on including some way of resetting modules/enabling Core Only Mode without TWRP, but I have no details or ETA. Until then, be real careful and be prepared to wipe /data...
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] sliding_billy:
I think you are right. Thanks for the quick reply.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Didgeridoohan:
There's also the possibility of building your own Magisk version with Core Only Mode enabled by default, patch the boot image with that custom Manager and then fastboot flash the patched boot image.

[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] KilgoreTrout71:
Forgive the lack of specificity, but I believe I had this problem once and solved it by using the file manager in TWRP to delete some files in the magisk folder.

I can understand that. I'm trying to figure a way out of the bind a person is in when a bad module is flashed.

I'm in the process of trying to build a magisk version that boots core-only so a patched boot.img can be flashed that disables the modules on reboot but I'm stuck on how to set the flags.

is twrp worth installing on P3 XL?
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] jcmm11:
Assuming you have Android 10 installed there's no currently working TWRP.

Once there is a working TWRP then, in my opinion, it's not worth installing. I just boot it when I need it, which isn't very often. I can flash most zips with FKM or EXKM, which cuts down on my need for TWRP drastically. Mostly just when I want to make a nandroid.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ktmom:

You cannot flash zips with TWRP on the Pixel 3's

Edit: Looked around some more and apparently a different cable can fix it? Im using the usb-c to usb-a cable from my mum's samsung as the pixel's cable is usb-c to c and my pc dosent have a usb-c port.

Could the cable be the issue?
