its stuck no boot while removing secure_storrage module from majisk

Oddly having tried the suggestion above of removing the majisk module the device no longer boots it gets stuck on the Samsung logo. For some reason the vendor partition is no longer able to mount.. Completed a restore eventually to get it to boot. Disabling the module yields the same result. no vendor partition and no boot. Going back to an earlier backup prior to the module being installed

The plot thickens

Today i'm still trying to find a fix for disappearing Bluetooth devices. Using the Magisc module cases my Tab to stall during boot on the Samsung logo similarly trying to replace the /vendor/lib and /vendor/lib64 binaries manually also causes the system to freeze on the Samsung logo. looking at the binaries and some path file references there in. It would appear as though my tablet is missing some key files or folder so far the following are missing

/data/system/secure_storage/ls_data.db

/dev/.ashem.secure_storage_ashem

/dev/.secure_storage/sd_socket.ro

any of you have any thoughts
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Questions & Answers] ashyx:
You actually only need to replace the libsecure_storage.so libs and set the correct permissions.

Add the following to the build.prop:

ro.securestorage.support=false

Boot failure when LIbs replaced

No matter how i do this, the device failes to boot and gets stuck on the samsung logo.

Install the majsik module through majisk reoot when prompted = device brick

making all the changes manually including the changes to the build.prop in the /vendor partition = device brick on reboot.

Tried Using instructions and librarys from the following post

https://xdaforums.com/samsung-a-series-2017/how-to/guide-fix-bluetooth-losing-pairings-t3798262

Although, the above post says to replaces the libs in the system folder which serves no purpose but replacing them in the vendor partition causes the device to brick at next boot.

Thanks far the suggestions, Still looking
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Questions & Answers] ashyx:
Is this happening with only the storage libs or does it happen if you make any other changes to vendor?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Questions & Answers] c6pea:
Thanks for the assist

It occurs only when the Libs are changed.

Originally using the majsic module to install the libs it couldn't overwrite the files as they are in use. modifying the build.prop seemed to resolve that but as soon as those libs are change either manually through terminal or via the installer i end up with a soft brick LOL

its Bugging me!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Questions & Answers] c6pea:
Interestingly

Once the device hangs.

Simply restoring the vendor partition doesn't fix the boot issue.

In order to get the device to boot I have to restore /data (you don't need to restore /vendor just /data)

oddly restoring the /data partition restores the 2 library files in /vendor to their respective originals

Majisk zip extraction issue

so I have resolved the Bluetooth issue, Rather having majisk install the module i just downloaded it and extracted the contents and discovered that upon zip extraction the contents of each file were appended to themselves. see screenshot "confused.jpg" of the readme.md - so in relation to the library files, the files being installed were double in size hence corrupt.

ie /vendor/lib/secure_storage.so should =308kb the file being insatalled in my /vendor/lib partition was 616kb the 64 bit library was also double the size it should have been.

infarct all the files within the Zip had the same issue.

so i extracted the Zip contents on my pc and transferred the library files via usb. made the relevant changes to build.prop and stopped the secure_storage deamon. Machine now boots and Bluetooth pairings are retained across reboots.

Small Wins :)

Any one have a clue why the files would double up on content??????
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Questions & Answers] c6pea:
built in zip extractor

the issue i have is with the stock zip extraction tool.

extracting the zip file content on the tablet with winzip. the files are as they should be
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Questions & Answers] ashyx:
7zip is the extraction utility you want. Winzip is pants.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Questions & Answers] c6pea:
Use winrar on the PC used it for a 15 year haha

only installed winzip to test another extraction tool on the tablet, low and behold the extracted content of the file is as it should be. Unlike the tablets stock zip extractor utility
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Questions & Answers] ashyx:
Same for winrar, closed source bloated rubbish.

7zip supports practically every format and totally ad free.

Nice rom ever. But i got this kind of blank/black graphics on games and Notification. And i cant find that QS transparency settings... Thanks for the ROM
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Mr.Ak:
That notification is for app updates; connecting to WiFi and updating apps should make that notification go away. However, I forgot to write it in my previous post, but considering the system UI changes the latest build contains, a clean flash is strongly recommended.
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Feltea:

Also the icons in the status bar disappearing. Means network, WiFi and alarm icons is not appearing simultaneously in the status bar. One of'em getting disappeared.

A suggestion is that notifications could've been easily distinguished if they had some outerline especially in black theme.
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Mr.Ak:
The black theme has some minor issues for now, which will be fixed soon.

[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] zack1175:
I know it might be a little to early to talk about Android Pie on V20 when some devices are not yet receive Android Oreo update. However, I still have some hope on V20 receiving official Android Pie update some day.

Does anyone think that your device will eventually get Pie or stuck at Oreo?
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] cnjax:
With LG's track record come back in two years
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] ozkaya:
v20 qualifies for Pie update on paper, Pie was released within the 2 year update window and almost all flagships receives 2 major updates, whereas v20 only received 1, at some lucky regions that is.

However LG really abandoned its mobile devices; shuts down services, releases devices partly (not worldwide) and very late.

Not releasing Oreo for US996? Come on, they used to blame carriers for everything, but not releasing update for your unlocked variant even months after carrier devices are updated? They haven't pushed even security update for months. I think they dropped the ball real bad and totally deserve to go out of business, sorry.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] tech_infinity:
I am a time traveller, I went 1 year into the future. There are no signs of PIE for V20 yet :p

On a serious note,

LG's preference will be

LGV40

G7

V35

V30s

V30

G6

V20

So even if V20 gets pie(it probably won't), it wil be at least 1 year before we see any variant of v20 gets it
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Redline:
Pie also requires eligibility for Treble support, allowing Google to update devices with this themselves, and requiring OEM's to only maintain a partition with what they want pre-loaded onto the device.

This would expand the lifespan of the V20 indefinitely, we'd be able to get updates at a similar speed to say a Pixel or Nexus (the latter being like the V20, an older class of flagship).

But I wouldn't hold my breath for LG putting the hours into a device that's now so low on their hierarchy.

One LineageOS 16.0 gets stable, that's about the only hope we have.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] AhmedQatar:
Few days ago i received the Android Oreo update on my V20 so i don't think LG will upgrade to Android Pie any soon .. but i can hope!
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Nightmode:
LG almost never go further than 1 major update.

I've owned 5 LG phone, they never receive version V3x.

So I say there is no chance LG V20 will have another major upgrade....especially it's one of the first LG phone start with Nougat.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] jpmaster012:
well the g7 got it in korea..
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] D Mob:
LG actually confirmed awhile ago that v20 will get pie, apparently LG is trying to fix their image. Most likely we will get the update by the end of this year.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] goulash2011:
What about security updates, we had 2 on nougat for the TWN version.

On Oreo no updates since october/oreo hit, i would much rather get a few more of them until pie.

Security updates is abysmal from LG.

Don't put your hope too much on this, LG might release Pie but it might be for korea only.. just like how they did for LG G4 by releasing Nougat for korea only..

If it does happen, we hope you get the time to continue the Awesome Alpha Rom into Pie (again, if you have time, since I know it's alot of hard work).

If not, we'll continue to use your AWESOME Alpha Rom on Oreo! Again, thanks for all your hard work on it.

As an aside, if LOS 16.0 (Pie) is perfected on the V20, we might test it out.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] gandyprakoso:
im already tested that LOS pie. its working great, and even our 2nd screen is working just like additional screen, so we got a bigger screen after all..

but the cons is,

the camera result is not good as in stock based rom and the built in DAC is not working.. for me, that 2 point (camera and DAC) is the bigest reason why im still using v20 in 2019..

for now on im just hoping in future, the stock camera and built in DAC can be ported into LOS pie sonwe got running pie also with perfect camera and V20's DAC..

[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] yplim2300:

Hello guys. Coming from a Sony phone I just couldn't get used to the MIUI launcher. Every app that's installed, is on your desktop. I rather have them in the app drawer instead. If you're like me, here's a collection of Xperia apps, that work just fine and without the need of root. I haven't ported them, just found them in the xda forums and got them together.

List of the apps:

Xperia Launcher 11.3.A.0.17

Xperia Launcher 11.0.A.0.7 - square folders on desktop

Sony Launcher beta 12.0.A.0.15 - the old weather widget won't work - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=1395089523397909042

(thanks to Ben Ling for the links)

Clock 5.2.0.243 - Play Store widget that mimics Xperia's clock and shows the alarm clock correctly.

Album 9.4.A.0.24

Album 9.5.A.0.30 - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=1395089523397903554

Music (Walkman) 9.4.2.A.0.0

Photo Editor 8.0.A.0.11

Xperia keyboard 8.1.A.0.12

Calendar 20.4.B.0.5

Weather widget 2.4.A.0.5

Link in Google Drive.

[Xiaomi Mi 5s Themes, Apps, and Mods] unicastbg:
I've done a repository that keeps the most recent versions of the mentioned Xperia apps. There are also some other apps like Telegram and Chrome. This repository is based on F-Droid and uses their app to connect and sync. So if you want to give it a shot, add the following repository in the F-Droid app:

http://unicastbg.ddns.net:801/fdroid/repo

This is in testing mode, no https at the moment and I can't get the descriptions metadata to work. But if you know the apps by name, you should be fine.

The server runs on a virtual machine and it's scheduled to shut down once a day for a few hours. This shut down is usually during US working hours.

Anyway, if you want to test it, give it a shot. I haven't edited the apks, for which their original signature should prove that. It's just something I wanted for some time and finally got it working.
