[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] appye:
Hello,

I recently got my young daughter a used Verizon Galaxy S7 and am running the latest oreo image on it. It will not have any carrier plan attached to it for the foreseeable future. She is getting her free phone number through Google hangouts and google voice.

I am using one of those apps on my own phone that creates a proxy with wifi-direct to provide a hotspot that my carrier either does not see or does not enforce limits upon. We have been happy to use it within the limitations that it does have.

I am trying to figure out a workaround for google hangouts sms/mms notifications. These notifications appear normally when the app is in the foreground, but not when it is in the background. On a regular (no proxy hack) wifi network, things work as expected and notifications appear whether the app is in foreground or not. I am not a network guy, but my guess is that proxies don't work with push notifications?

...Is there some way to keep it running on the phone in the background? Perhaps a widget the keeps hangouts active? Maybe a script I can run that will make hangouts check in every five minutes or so?

Thanks for your time!

(Tried searching but couldn't find anything relevant)

I like the navigation gestures implementation by OP, specially with 9.0.5 update where the gestures are much more responsive and reliable. But I miss the force screen rotation button that appears when using the actual Pie style navigation buttons. What are your thoughts on the pros and cons of navigation gestures vs buttons with respect to force rotation feature of Pie. Are you guys using some third party app to fill in this missing feature?

I would have retained to using the Pie style buttons, but the unreliability of the color and transparency of the buttons (with respect to major color of the app) just pisses me off. More than 50% of the time, just the navigation buttons would be of a contrasting color. Sometimes they would be transparent for some apps, while solid for others. Moreover, I hate the humongous height of that bar. It could easily loose another 10+ pixels of screen real estate.

The only light bleeding I see is between the notification LED and the sensor that is right next to it. (But not the one right next to the speaker.) It's kind of hard to even tell anything is there during the day.

Hi!

I have installed "lineage-16.0-20181019-UNOFFICIAL-hlte" (now also tested with latest lineage-16.0-20181108-UNOFFICIAL-hlte)on my N9005 and have a Problem...

1:

After encryption and following password setting, the phone starts normally, encryption was finished and seems OK!

(When I set a passphrase before encryption was done, the phone interrupt encryption and starts immediately TWRP -> so I have to do like listed above....) Is this normal!?

2:

When i activate secure boot, the device starts always new, after around 5sec. the input box appears!

No matter you are able to finish the password input or not.... So it's impossible to turn on with enabled secure boot....

Is it a bug or do i something wrong?

3:

Also i want to no is following:

With latest TWRP (twrp-3.2.3-0-hlte) formating system-partition (Ext4) always 36MB are still used, is this correct?

I ask this because my read is that encryption does not correctly finish his work because partition is not accurate

Reporting bugs

Important: Read the bug list before posting. Anyone can add bugs to the list, just follow the rules.

If you have questions, ask them in this thread: Xperia XZ Pie ROMs Questions and Answers Thread

Don't make me ask you for logs every time!​

I will repeat the rules again here:

Rules:

New bugs must include version where error popped up and which oem version you are using

Only reproducible errors

Should include adb logcat (linked in a pastebin service like https://del.dog)

Must include clear description what is wrong

If it is a visual/SystemUI bug, only report it here

If it is an internal bug(e.g. fingerprint crashes device), report it to the Sony bugtracker as well!

Always try to fix the bug yourself first! Then submit a pull request to Sony

Must search if error has already been reported (bug tracker, this document, dev buglist)

If you've reported the issue somewhere else already and just want to track it here as well, add a link

Before reporting a bug, always make sure to isolate it. That means, wipe everything, install only the ROM without GApps and Magisk and see if the problem still exists. Only then report the bug!

Update 2018-11-16

Some new developments are happening.

Oem binaries version 3 are out. This should give improved power management. The SODP team has also worked on getting audio handling during calls to work. A big thanks to oshmoun for his work on the audio manager. This change was introduced on the 11-15 build. The issue of no call audio when a bluetooth headset is connected is still present as of now.

Changed IRQ handling (PR by Angelo/"kholk"). This should give better battery life and maybe faster wakeup from deep sleep. But could also lead to instabilities and crashes. Send logs & pstore, see post #2. This change was introduced on the 11-15 build.

Testing kernel 4.9.137 i in progress (we are currently on .103). This means stability and security enhancements from upstream linux. Thanks to Nathan Chance who opened this pull request..

But some of those upstream changes might be incompatible with our Sony kernel, so we have to test that. Send logs & pstore, see post #2. This change was introduced in the 11-16 build. If the 11-15 and 11-16 builds are unstable, revert to an older one. But please be brave and run them for at least a day to get us logs of potential crashes.

---

Your phone software is made up of many layers. The ROMs like omni or this AOSP-based one only modify your /system and /boot partitions.

But when you update your stock firmware via flashtool, you also update your phone modem firmware, your qnovo charging controller firmware, your lower-level bootloaders etc. That is why we instruct you to update to the latest stock firmware. You could theoretically skip flashing /system in flashtool(because it will get overwritten anyway, as you've already discovered) and directly flash a custom ROM afterwards.

When you're coming from omni, there is no need to flash stock firmware again in between, because your other partitions stay the same. Just a new /oem is needed.
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] local__hero:
Again, please keep this thread about development for AOSP. The omni builds are not meant for you.

If you have trouble installing then simply don't use it.

General update

Newer builds will have selinux set to "enforcing". Most denials should have been fixed or are irrelevant. If you encounter any problems, selinux-related or anything else, please report them to the Sony bugtracker or - even better - submit a pull request to the selinux-policy repo.

Update 1: vendor blobs aren't binderized correctly atm, so no network. You can set selinux back to permissive to fix most issues atm.

The Wi-Fi hotspot has been fixed thanks to oshmoun. In newer builds, it should be using less battery.

Next thing we're going to tackle is deep sleep and battery drain. Big pain point and one of the last blockers, apart from the camera and bluetooth in-call audio.

You might have noticed that the omnirom device trees have been updated to 9.0. Nightly testing builds work fine, but they have the same issues as the AOSP-based ones.

Work is also under way to get a Pie-based TWRP recovery stable, with support for FDE encryption(this means that you will be able to back up your encrypted installations). Mounting /userdata works, but the builds are not ready for public release yet.
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] local__hero:
