[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LPW00:
I wish, what the OP meant with "MUST" is not from his pov, but based on how the community acts towards new and/or inexperienced people. If that were so, he'd be right. To not get flamed and treated like a piece of s h i t by at least some, ur ROM would have to be perfect (we all agree that perfection is impossible, do we?), which is made obvious by the fact that even the best devs and projects have to deal with people like [MENTION=9779519]jm206[/MENTION]. But after further looking into it I don't think that was what he meant.

True. The community just grew too big. Every community that grows to big starts to attract assholes and to turn away the good people that started it and made it popular.

Reason for edit: reality check, also grammar

Oh wow. I can't even imagine. Maybe it isn't that bad that mom won't allow me to mod her phone.

Yup, I 'member. That's what he said. An iPhone user shot him out of jealousy.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riahc3:
Then they shouldnt release the ROMs, that simple.

If it is enough for their daily use, then thats fine. Like you mentioned, if I want something fixed, nowadays I can make a ROM very quickly, much quicker than the WM days.

Im not knowing on developer's hard work; I appriciate it like the next person.

But, this isnt 2002 anymore; There needs to be standards set for software quality for you release ROMs for the general public on XDA. If not, keep them to yourself and daily usage.

I dont see this as a complaint; I just see that developers are sadly lowering the bar on quality ROMs and on top of that, some (not most) abandon projects without saying anything....

Also that "no pay" statement....A lot of ROM teams have their own website with ads so.... Lets not get carried away :)
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SethGeckoXDA:
Well, it is not like you have to install each and every custom ROM which gets uploaded on XDA. Just download those you deem worthy...

If it is so easy to compile and maintain a custom ROM nowadays, why complain? Just compile it for yourself in your own free time and leave the rest...

Yeah, right. These ad revenues are probably worth a cup of coffee or two each month. Next time you hire someone or purchase an item, tell them you pay by clicking ads on their website. Tell me how this works out for you.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jm206:
I didn't realize working wifi and mobile data were "unrealistically high standards" for a mobile device whose main function is accessing the internet. That's an extremely low bar to set. And you can save your "but what have you done for the community" with your 13 total posts.

I have enough on my plate programming at work and programming at home for work to even think about starting my own ROM, but neither me nor any of my colleagues would ever release the quality of some of the stuff that gets released here. Imagine going to your bank to get cash from the ATM and it just can't even read your card number. Now imagine 5% of the bank's ATM's do work, but the bank doesn't even know which ones they are and you have to drive around for hours looking for it. Downloading ROMs from here is like that. You're playing Russian roulette with 5 chambers loaded. A huge portion of the developers seemingly have zero pride in their releases, or do so for ulterior motives like resume padding. I've lost count of how many ROMs have come and disappeared as soon as the developer found a job. "Thank's for beta-testing my ROM that never worked at all guys, but I can't maintain it anymore since I'm too busy with work." That works the first few times, now it's like a repeating echo. Maybe that's harsh sounding, but that's the reality of the situation.

The bottom line is, there are talented people in the community, but their works are being flooded and drowned out by an ocean of garbage. In traditional trades, this was solved easily with apprenticeships. When someone wants to become a blacksmith, they'd apprentice under a seasoned blacksmith who would teach, followed by managing, followed by advising. Nothing leaves the shop without approval of the blacksmith, and by the time the apprentice leaves, they have learned how to be a proper blacksmith. No such system exists here. Complete novices come and pound out a thousand knives that fall apart on the first use and their knives are placed right next to knives made by master craftsmen. Good luck trying to pick one to use.

Traffic is cheap, web storage is cheap, wasting everyone's time releasing non-functional software is not cheap. There honestly should be a separate forum section for people to learn if that's their primary objective, or a section for known excellent releases to be highlighted and pinned. Instead, the front page of the development sections are pinned with 30+ ROMs, of which maybe 2-3 work without problems.

Semi-abandoned, he's left it in good hands so far, so it's still getting the monthly security updates with denser's builds.

My sentiments exactly.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Feinzer:
Yeah okay and which ROM has wifi and mobile data issues, because as far as I am concerned I'm using one with pretty much everything working.

Do I need to be active on XDA to help a developer? Either way it seems like you didn't read my post correctly cause I didn't say anything about your contributions. As stated before, I honestly do not care.

I do dislike that they abandon some projects pretty quickly sometimes but this is NOT a shop and they can do whatever they please with their work. You are not buying anything here, you are taking everything for free. You're also free to test whatever you feel like or stay on whatever ROM you like.

My God, you do not have to try every ROM that gets uploaded here. Your time is for you to use, no one else's. How can you blame anybody else for "wasting your time"? Do you not know how to say "No."? Hell, I probably gave a big number of ROMs a pass because I simply didn't want to use them. It really is not that hard, buddy.

Again, this is NOT a shop. You are not buying anything. They can share the ROM however they feel like. Guys this is a FORUM, did you really forget what a forum is? you DON'T have to use every ROM or help every developer, just stick to whatever you like, nobody cares.

Is that an excuse? and even if it is, please tell me WHICH ROMs are doing this because I can list a whole lot of those sites and they run 0 ads, hell, even the code of the website is open source on GitHub dude. Whatever an excuse of you paying them is, you're not. This is not a shop and every ROM is available for free because IT'S A FORUM, it's meant for sharing.

To finish with all of this, I do understand that you are frustrated but that is not how things work, you knowing programming or not doesn't give you the right to judge them, this is an OLD device which for your information Qualcomm LONG AGO deprecated. Even the graphics drivers are dead. But people are still trying to keep this phone working. you cannot have that good of an experience when running stuff like this on a phone this old, it is actually amazing how good Oreo runs on this, it's pretty much flawless. So you can keep complaining of issues you having, that's okay, talk to developers and help them, or just don't and keep lying to yourself. But please refrain from insulting people's work like this, if you seriously want to do so, go make your stuff yourself.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riahc3:
Do you buy every single phone, test them out and then rebuy the one deem worthy?

Kids have time for that stuff. A grown working adult with a career doesnt. He wants solutions, even if he needs to pay.

Compling a ROM is easy; Takes most people....a hour. Fixing, etc. takes more than a hour and just like above, a normal working adult does not have time for that. Working at McDonalds is not a grown working adult with a career. Its a respectable job but thats it.

Since when? The ad revenues arent going to buy them a benz but some of them live ok.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riahc3:
Amazing post. Reddit should give you gold.

IMO, he abandoned it. If someone else is putting out builds, they should make their own fork and release it.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SethGeckoXDA:
I think your understanding is almost there. It basically boils down to this: you pay someone for their work, you have every right to voice demands. You get something for free, you be rather thankful and ask nicely.

I do not believe you can make a living from website ad revenue on a low traffic site.

Since money does not seem to be an issue for you, please consider donating to your favourite project/dev. Donation links are usually attached to their signatures. This might actually motivate people to do work in their free time (as opposed to your posts).
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] Leechoonhwee:
Hi everyone,

I've been seeing many people having issues with installing Google framework on the AL00 variant.

The fact is that Google framework is already baked in and it is just a simple update to enable it.

1. Open app gallery and change country to China

2. Search for Google play store and click update

3. After update, click on open

4. The usual setup will appear

5. Done.

After the above steps, the majority of Google services and sync, etc should all be working.

* Update - OK Google does not work out of the box.

Have a good time with your new baby ?

Cheers!

Vincent
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] BigDisplay:
Now u mention Google services, i think Google assistant does not work properly... or is it possible now?

Right now i still have my hn10 and here is still not possible [emoji848]
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] Leechoonhwee:
I should say Google framework instead of services. I need to test out Google assistant as I don't use it but "OK Google" might not work at all due to Hivoice.

I'll update this thread to reflect more facts.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] pipereta:
I just used the browser to look up "Google play store" and it gave me an option to download/update it, I've never opened the app gallery and everything works fine ??
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] oleg_lap:
I do the same? thanks

I do the same, thanks

Chinese ..but you do have to press the assistant
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] behnam27:
Hello all. Every time I restart the phone, the Google assistant stops working. Is there a way to keep it as default?

I know thx. And i don't have the problem, i have bought the L29 version[emoji1303]
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] richiriccardo:
Does the location history of google (on maps) work with this solution?
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] Leechoonhwee:
For my case, history is disabled but somehow it still works
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] Pointmanipo:
Since this will be my first Chinese Huawei phone, how does Hivoice work? and is it just as good as Google Assistant?

Thank you in advance.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] Leechoonhwee:
I didn't try it lol
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] Pointmanipo:
So then you're using Google Assistant.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] Leechoonhwee:
Not using Google assistant either :)

Chinese Mate 20x - location is China - I'm buggin

Hi Vincent,

Thanks for the suggestion above. I have legit fried my tiny brain on all aspects of getting google play to activate/update install what have you.

My location in the App Store ALREADY says China - and I am still unable to open or update the Google Play Store.

Any other suggestions? I am also unable to create a Huawei ID for the phone, it keeps saying "Restricted" and won't let me. Any work-arounds for this?
[ZTE Axon 9 Questions & Answers] synapsesburned:
Anyone know what level implementation it has for each of the back cameras?

Hoping it has has Full or Level 3 support, especially for the wide angle (and not Limited or Legacy - like on the Zenfone 5Z).

This requires root?
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Akilesh_15:
Obviously. Read the title, it's a Magisk module
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Rajeev:
Fantastic work bro. Useful for Global users. Keep up the good work... :good:
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Akilesh_15:
Thank you bro :o
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Emad tober:
Can you help me howto installing it on my nokia 7 plus?
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Akilesh_15:
You need unlocked bootloader firstly. Then root your phone using Magisk. Now you can flash the module via Magisk manager app.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Emad tober:
Will this deprive me of air updates?
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Akilesh_15:
No. But you have to unroot before installing an OTA update (you can root again after updating) and you must not alter the system.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Emad tober:
Thanks alot....
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] jazzzzzzz:
I have two issues..! one is in lockscreen clock text there is a square character istead of a colon, and for network speed indicator the color is always white,so when using chrome we cant see the network speed as new chrome uses white color status bar,hope you can fix it soon

also how can i open taskmager and all
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] zohaibahd:
was wondering if I could somehow get the screen recorder apk only? that's all I need ?
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Akilesh_15:
Yes, you can. One of the highlights of this module is that you can select only the files you want to install. While flashing via Magisk Manager, use the volume keys to select only screen recorder and say no to others. :D
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] jirka607:
Will it work on pie?
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Akilesh_15:

Once your phone is unlocked, it will no longer be covered by the manufacturer's limited warranty provided by HMD Global.

Will this work with stock Android?
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Aftab_khatri:
Will it work on other Android one devices ? Or stock roms ?
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Akilesh_15:
[MENTION=8052027]adityaon[/MENTION] [MENTION=4834659]Aftab_khatri[/MENTION]

No, it won't work on other phones. These are stock apps in the Chinese variants of Nokia phones.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] VonCrisp:
Well done on the module OP.

Someone mentioned that one of the apps on the Chinese Android version allows for phone call recording. Seeing how google is phasing it out for pretty much everyone else besides ODMs/unlocked phones it is good that you created this Extension.

Will try it out at some point!

It is, but nothing in status bar
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Akilesh_15:
Well, it's sometimes not visible when apps have a white background on the status bar. Is it an issue like that or is it not visible on any screen?

[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Akilesh_15:
Give the logs of the crash. You can use this app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pluscubed.matlog). Open it, keep it in the background and open NEX Launcher app. After it crashes, come back to the Matlog app, then click the pause button at the top -> 3 dots -> file -> save.

How to enable double tap to sleep ? I have substratum installed and set.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Akilesh_15:
In the substratum app, change overlay state for nex (disables nex) in the manager section.

Go to settings - system - gestures.

Enable nex in manager section. Come back to gesture settings.

Video demo
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] ban.codrut:
Ok, I already have them set and I can see new options in gesture section but not the Screen Off one.

Here is a screenshot

It only adds One Hand mode , Navigation Bar and I think Direct Call
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Akilesh_15:
Version v2.6

Changelog

New features - Full-screen navigation gestures(yay!) and Glance screen.

Double tap to sleep setting should be visible now, in fact, there will be a new gesture section in the Settings app.

Substratum is no longer required. The module will install the pre-built overlays. Nex substratum app will be removed if it's installed.

Refactored install script.

The theme store from China ROM works too. It offers some themes (icon packs & wallpapers) and some fonts. But I felt that it was not good enough. So, I haven't included it in the module. Let me know if you want that in the module.

@ban.codrut, try this version.

Is there a way for Nokia 7.1 users (TA-1085) to install this module? Or change our models into global variants?
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Akilesh_15:
This one doesn't work on 7.1. I can send you a test module if you're interested.

And Nokia 7.1 has only a global variant.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] usernamedoesnotexist:
Sure, that would be fine!

and my bad, I had assumed that the US version of the 7.1 was different than the international variant for some reason.

I joined the telegram group if you need me to test.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] :
Hey man great module. Works great on my TA-1083.

When I uninstall the module, It still leaves behind the Nex Launcher and the settings entry Gestures and Advanced. How do i remove it?

Cheers.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Akilesh_15:
NEX Launcher is installed as a user app. You can manually uninstall it like any other app (I'll update this in code later so that it's automatically uninstalled). The other two were enabled using overlays. Try rebooting.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] :
I re-booted my phone prolly 10-20 times today(Newly experimenting with Magisk, :p) and the entries are still there. If you can give me the location for those overlays, I can delete them manually from the system.

Edit - NEX launcher is already uninstalled. The entries are still present!

Cheers.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Akilesh_15:
Those overlays are already removed. (Files injected by the module will be removed when the module is uninstalled).
