[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] elfulus:
Thanks for still working on it! Unfortunately I had installed my S4 mini already a week ago. Not sure how upgrading to the latest version would work without restoring all data and app configs again & again and if the new release would be worth the effort (is there more to it than security patches)

As for the current release I am glad it works and sensors seem to be recognized well. Thank you very much for your great work!! I am struggling to keep the last 4-5" display device with quad-core and decent specs for a non-gaming device.

However, I do have some mixed emotions with this version since the following issues appear:

* Open Camera makes good pics and is extremely configurable but unfortunately always crashes on HDR & DRO save and instantly checking saved pics in its own gallery icon works very erratic

* Quite often during the day the entire system starts to behave extremely sluggish. Often only getting a keyboard or trying to swipe out apps takes ages or nothing happens on the device for 10s of seconds or longer. Seems to be triggered by some regular up-to-date apps that make use of a stem webview?

* One cannot even check which app is causing the issue because Android 10 won't allow checking CPU usage at all without rooting

* Samsung/Google apks even though designed for Android 10+ often not installed after parsing the apk files with error: "app not installed". Perhaps they also check for System or hardware??

*Mime types apparently not recognized from webviews (such as Youtube, Wikipedia or Google Play links will never trigger the app)

* Launcher backgrounds were not installed but downloadable via play store. However, the Pixel Launcher does not make good use of the entire desktop leaving lots of areas unusable (as if customized for round edge 6+ Inch displays. This renders display content very small. Icon titles are cut to about 5-7 characters.

I appreciate that some of the above may be due to Pixel and/or Android 10 specifics or my lack of skills. Also many issues can be overcome with 3P apps or different launchers but it would be great to have a camera with working DRO/HDR that produces good results. Google& Samsung cam apps won't install.

Beat regards elfulus

1. You can see all changes at gerrit.pixelexperience.

2. Make a backup of your current system (just in case) before you install the new one.

3. I cannot say anything about the HDR function of the camera. Don't use that. I'll have a look at it when I have enough time ( this has no priority for me). With open camera the pictures can be stored on the SD card:

Settings/More camera controls/Use Storage Access Framework.

4. To the system:

I have updated all apps via play store. System runs stable and smooth (for this five year old device).
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] elfulus:
.

I did a very clean install on my S4 mini value edition with advanced complete wipe and updated apps afterwards too. Perhaps it is one of the other apps causing these issues (though my apps are not too special). Will monitor it or re-install latest version. I do appreciate your work a lot. It was interesting however how much time glitches and sometimes extremely sluggish system can start to be annoying. So many small things add up: e.g. timer often does not beep although it's already counting into minus. An installed autostart step counter does not start in some days but in others. Unlocking SIM card upon reboot takes extremely long, telling android to reboot sometimes really reboots but often just switches off the device instead. Lots of tiny little things lead to a generally mixed and apparently not reliable behaviour, though I do not understand why that is. Would be interested to hear other testers.

Thx [MENTION=9489673]mernurisha[/MENTION] for your great work !

I've been running PixelExperience_Plus_serranovelte-10.0-20200418-2025-UNOFFICIAL on my S4 mini VE for 3-4 days and I will soon test the new release.

I have noticed that :

- the system needs a long time to boot (screen displays "set warranty bit : kernel" and device restarts many times before the google logo appears)

- the installation of twrp (q-3.3.1-0-serranovelte, with heimdall) has changed the value of knox (it is now 0x1)

- it is not play protect certified

- I can't change the wallpaper
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] mernurisha:
- Something went wrong during the installation.

Make a full wipe before installing new rom

-- wipe (system, data, internal, art cache, dalvik)

-- install the new rom.zip

-- thereafter wipe cache/dalvik and reboot

After reboot, the Google logo appears only once until the system boots.

- The value of knox changes if you install custom recovery and rom.

Once you install the original rom( and recovery ) via Odin, the value goes back to its original value.

-I don't know what you mean.

-Changing the wallpaper works here.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] antoine8168:
When I want to reboot system at the end of the install process, twrp says "no os installed...". Nevertheless, pixel experience starts.

Now, my device seems to be certified by "google play protect". Perhaps, it is linked to the security patch update.

Thx for your help
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] Nokono:
Very sorry but what is above is wrong. Knox value never switches back. There is no way to do it.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] antoine8168:
Hi,

Even with the new release, my phone still needs several restarts before booting to pixel experience.

I don't know what I did wrong during the installation, this is what I made :

- I installed first twrp-q-3.3.1-0-serranovelte from the aospextended thread, with heimdall

- then I booted in recovery mode, made wipe->format data and wipe->advanced wipe->checked dalvik, system, data, cache, internal

- I installed pixel experience .zip

- finally, I wiped dalvik cache and rebooted

Confirm Wifi 2.4GHz severe throughput issues vs 5GHz when using Bluetooth

I have also issues with 2.4Ghz Wifi on PixelExperience_Plus_serranovelte-10.0-20200418-2025-UNOFFICIAL.

Connecting is not an issue. However, when Bluetooth is activated at the same time Wifi throughput goes down extremely. Using Wifi2.4GHz only, I am reaching my DSL maximum (60MBit/s / 12MBit/s down/up via Wifi<=>Router<=>DSL). With Wifi 2.4Ghz + Bluetooth turned on it drops down to 4 to 0,2Mbit/s down/up. Using 5GHz band at home I am not having any issues. The error with bluetooth is replicable switching Bluetooth off and on.

I had been wondering why my sometimes extremely lagging performance seemed to be mainly related to networking apps. It turnes out this could partly be due to me using Bluetooth and 2.4GHz Wifi at the same time in hotels and at home (for our family mobiles, leaving 5GHz for laptops and demanding devices). Though not being a huge issue (I can use 5GHz at home and 3G/4G on the road) it is an issue when you may only use Hotel 2.4 Wifi. You then have to stop using bluetooth at the same time.

I am wondering if this might have been adressed in your latest update PixelExperience_Plus_serranovelte-10.0-20200724-1340-UNOFFICIAL. It is not easy to spot this under gerrit.pixelexperience.org.

=> By the way, would you consider it somewhat safe to install your latest updated ROMS via TWRP

without full wiping the device again each time?

Otherwise, re-customizing device and applying all data back every time to it is a cumbersome process.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] mernurisha:
This is very detailed feedback.

I don't want to talk nicely about the rom here.

I can only say -

Everyone has to decide for themselves what is good for themselves. Nobody is forced to do anything here.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] elfulus:
Hi mernurisha,

Don't get me wrong. I like it a lot how you are working on providing unofficial support for officially not LOS/AOSP supported phones. Also, I'm aware my response was rather detailed and I am not forced to anything:). I deliberately decided to give it a try after reading so many encouraging replies in this forum.

That is why I say: very good attempt and many things work fine,

but

: I would still

not

recommend this to folks who do not want to play around a long time not caring for issues but want to keep using their phone for day-to-day stuff after the custom ROM installation. Plus, I am very, very sad it is so, because I will now have to go with a new TV size / brick weight phone just because nobody produces decent phones these days that have good hardware and camera but a screen size around 5":(. Only compromise in the Android world would be an overpriced S10E or not yet available Pixel4A (without SD). Or any other 5.x" phone with bad camera and low specs (don't want iPhones).

Argh it's so annoying. I did install yout last ROM (PixelExperience_Plus_serranovelte-10.0-20200816...). Formated external sd as internal. Configured the whole system to my needs, settings, Apps, everything ... worked fine. At the end I would save my hard work using twrp. Backed up all partitions to external sd, done. Rebooted phone to system, external sdcard is broken. Means TWRP backup has broken the "external sd formated as internal". Now I can begin at the beginning or can the backup help me?

hi, thanks for your reply

i installed pixel experience 10 on an i9195 (serranoltexx) from member [MENTION=6005084]ripee[/MENTION] and there is face lock, i think it must have some idea. before I had also rr Android 9 on (serranoltexx) with facelock and it worked well too. but on the pixel expérience rom 10 of the serranovelte no facelock. it would be cool if the member [MENTION=6005084]ripee[/MENTION] could give us his opinion.

Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] ripee:
I have no opinion to give in the matter of face unlock. As you have noticed, this function is specific to the rom you are using, and as such is a decision made by the developers of each rom.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] cemoibob:
hi, thanks for your reply.

the two rom are pixel expérience 10, one for serranoltexx with faclock and the other for serranovelte without facelock. is it just missing files on the serranovelte pixel rom?

if so can we add them?

[Sony Xperia XA1 Ultra Questions & Answers] JuicePuncher:
So I tried to root my XA1 Ultra, but without luck. The bootloader is unlocked and twrp is installed but root? From all the methods the internet gave me I only have one left to try (unless I oversaw something). I use Magisk Manager so my option is to either get the boot.img file for my phone and let it patch or flash the zip thru the recovery which needs a data wipe and I am tired of setting up my phone just to see that nothing happend (I mean I can ignore this point). But I guess that the encryption system (also in twrp) is my enemy.

My question is: Is there a solid way to root my devices? It is stock rom and has Android 8.0 NOT 8.1.

thx
[Sony Xperia XA1 Ultra Questions & Answers] mchlbenner:
Flashing magisk zip file should not requirer a data whipe.

I have never heard you should whipe data but when you install twrp you need to reformat your device.
[Sony Xperia XA1 Ultra Questions & Answers] JuicePuncher:
Even with reformatting it said that it needs a custom kernel.
