[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] lukeflegg:
Hi everyone,

I'm not much of a techie person but my lord I am hating Android 9. I really badly want to go back to the perfect Android 8 Oreo, and I'm searching for a detailed tutorial how to do this on my OnePlus 5.

Any tips?

Thank you!
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] strongst:
I recommend to read the entire tread, there are tips.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] lukeflegg:
I have done.

As I said, I'm looking for a detailed walk-through on how to roll back my OnePlus 5 from Pie to Oreo, and there's no detailed walk-through in this thread (nor linked to from this thread)

Thanks
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] strongst:
Post 2,3 and 4 gives you everything you need to know. You can simply downgrade but use an Oreo twrp since Oreo needs Oreo ready twrp. What are your concerns?

What about details of your device?

Is there any way to use Viper4android while connected to Android Auto through a USB cable?

I'm using a Pixel 3 on Android 9.0, and a Mazda head unit.

It looks like it's not possible, and that the phone basically acts as a flash drive only in this case. But I figured if there is a way someone here would know. Thanks.
[Android Auto General] Tiemichael:
Viper4Android has tabs for Bluetooth, USB etc - so you should be able to use it.

My phone (Xiaomi A1) does not act a flash-drive at all (good or bad?) - but uses Google PlayMusic if connected via Bluetooth, and uses this as well as some other players (e.g DoubleTwist) is connect via USB and Android Auto
[Android Auto General] cmo220:
At least on the Pixel 3 this doesn't work. I tried using the USB tab but it doesn't change anything when using Android Auto.
[Android Auto General] joedajoester:
Set viper to compatibility mode and then change the song, then viper will activate. I wish it didn't need compatibility mode cause skipping into a song has a split second of unprocessed and I have a negative gain so it blasts the music for a split second.
[Android Auto General] cmo220:
Yeah. This works sometimes, but only for some apps. It doesn't seem to work with Audible. Also, since it requires compatibility mode, the newer versions of Viper don't work. Hopefully one of these days someone much smarter than me will come up with something.

Nice, I wish I could figure out a way to get it to work on Audible.

Just wanted to mention, cause for me viperfx didn't work with spotify(did not try other apps) for ages,

maybe in this combination some magic happens..

I definitely appreciate your response, I didn't mean to come across as being dismissive. Unfortunately it I haven't found any combinations of anything to make it work on Audible. Thanks though!

Hi, would like to push this topic since its becoming relevant for me & and i love viper4android.

As far i understood android auto, it was designed to transfer only the data and that the headunit is overtaking the soundprocessing.

In my case, I would like to connect android auto to A-Class MBUX and im wondering if i can benefit from viper4android somehow?
[Android Auto General] BostonDan:
It has been stated that people can get v4a to work through Android auto on other threads, by using compatibility mode, and that v4a uses speaker output as the source.

I have repeatedly tried to replicate this but v4a does not process the audio when connected to AA no matter the configuration (using session 0, using all sessions but 0, compatibility mode on, compatibility mode off).

Has anybody gotten this to work? I would love to use v4a on AA when driving as the music processing is superior to any Google's equalizer.

Any assistance is appreciated!

Cheers,

B.D.

Greetings, Devs,

I am experiencing an interesting behaviour with my G7 Thnq. When I call someone and the other side is busy, I get the "busy" signal, which automatically switches to loudspeaker and beeps there. Have you experienced such behaviour and how can I solve it? It is very annoying, when you call in a quite place and beeps switch to loudspeaker, everyone is unhappy, myself including. If needed, I can record this behaviour and present a video.

Thanks,

Hello, I'm new here and I need help, let me explain...

I already have it unlocked with TWRP 3.2 (latest) with AEX rom, but I can't install any rom on it since I have some issues:

On TWRP:

When I try to install it can't mount /data and /cache. I have already tried to make them ext2 then ext4 and format data. System, Vendor and Firmware is mounting fine, just cache and data not.

Tried to install stock rom via but is also not working, I don't know about those errors but also seem like permissions (maybe?). It finishes download, but when I start the phone still there AEX and nothing changed, stuck on the logo just loading...

I have a 5ghz wifi at home and tv connected via chromecast 2.0.

Sometimes i want to watch movie casting it from my op6t to tv but there are some major problems when i use either mxplayer or vlc.

Movies drop frames, sometimes audio stops, sometimes phone doesnt connect to chromecast.

I didnt have those issues on less powerfull phones like nexus 6p and huawei p20. I think it might be oneplus problem.

Hi guys, I Uninstalled game suite because it was old version 8 and I want to install version 9. It was supposed to come with the firmware emui 9 update gpu turbo 2.0 but I didn't. I have to install it the manual way to make it work but first I have to find it. The only bad thing about honor is that they don't tell you how to reinstall system apps and it's really hard to find those apps. Anyone with gpu turbo 2.0 version? How you made it work after emui 9 update

Hi All,

Happy new year. I had been struggling to root the S9 and getting the following error

"only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed(recovery)" while ODIN flashing of TWRP 3.2.1.1.tar

Also tried OEM unlock option. Still cannot succeed in rooting the phone.

Kindly help me with the files and procedure to root and install stock rom. Thank you all in advance.

When I try to connect to ExpressVPN using their app or using one of the OpenVPN clients on Google Play my Ethernet (I can't test WiFi) internet connection is disconnected. OpenVPN reports no network detectable and I can't use the Internet until I reboot the box. Any help appreciated.
[General Questions and Answers] ChrisNI:
Same issue here

I have the exact same problem. Thanks for posting your findings it will save me a day messing with powerline adapters and ethernet cables. I was able to successfully use WiFi with ExpressVPN but really need the ethernet connection to be working. I expect I'll be returning it to Amazon.
[General Questions and Answers] RobPitt:
I bought a T95Q instead. This works and is faster but Ethernet breaks if you put the device to sleep with a VPN connected over Ethernet (haven't tested WiFi).

No HD Netflix though as it's only Widevine level 3.
[General Questions and Answers] ChrisNI:
Thanks for the info

Thanks for the info, shame the T95Q has vpn issues too. Strange, I've never had any problem with ExpressVPN on multiple other devices. My X88 Max is on its way back to Amazon and I'm going to give the H96 Max+ a go. (I've had a H96 Pro+ for many years, still working well and was recently able to upgrade it to 7.1.2 via a firmware upgrade)
[General Questions and Answers] RobPitt:
It's not just ExpressVPN it's all VPNs. I emailed a vendor to ask them about Ethernet and VPN on the H96 Max Plus as it was the first alternative box I considered too and they told me I can't use VPN with Ethernet on it. The problem with sleep on the T95Q is minor, just disconnect the VPN before putting it to sleep or reboot it if you leave it alone for ages and it goes to sleep itself. It's a minor inconvenience.
[General Questions and Answers] ChrisNI:
Darn

Oh dear, wish I'd seen this before ordering the H96 :rolleyes: Looks like I'll be ending up with the T95Q. I'll let you know how I get on with the H96 (not too hopeful)
[General Questions and Answers] RobPitt:
It seems to me the Ethernet screws up when the device goes to sleep regardless of whether the VPN was connected or not. At over £100 cheaper than the Nvidia Shield I guess I can live with that.

Can fastboot be used to fully restore stock everything? Bootloader, Recovery, FireOS.

I tried to use Kingroot on my Kindle Fire HD 7" 3rd gen (Soho) and it softbricked it. I can't get past the white n orange "Kindle fire" logo screen.

I've tried the directions for putting twrp on and such but I still can't get past the logo. I followed the directions for restore on the TWRP Page but once I get to the last part right after the sideloading of the update.bin file I cant get past the logo screen.

adb sideload update.bin

adb reboot

THIS IS WHERE I CANT GET PAST. It stalls at the logo screen.

adb wait-for-device

adb shell su -c 'mount -o remount,rw /system && rm /system/etc/install-recovery.sh && mount -o remount,ro /system'

[MENTION=5594845]spudowiar[/MENTION] I know this device is really old and its likely youve forgotten how to do some things but I really need help with this. The directions on the TWRP page arent working, or well, they work but its not working. I have tried to sideload the latest amazon update file as update.bin, update.bin.zip, and update.zip. None of them work or it seems. After the sideload of the update and SuperSU I reboot the device and then it goes to the faint white kindle logo then the kindle fire logo in white and orange with the glimmer scrolling across the screen. Thats where it stops. I have left it on this screen for 2 hours or so and no change. I am at a loss of what to do to restore this device to working condition now.

[SOLVED] Format Data ERROR - TWRP: "failed to mount data" "device or resource busy"

I've tried to install Lienage 15.1 ROM but I did not get it.

I installed the 3.2.3 v. TWRP and then followed the steps of the installation guide in the Lineage official website.

I tapped on "Format Data", but I found these messages:

"failed to mount data" and "device or resource busy".

Then I tried to reboot the device and go into TWRP again and it is not there anymore. Instead, it is the xiaomi recovery.

What am I doing wrong?

EDIT:

Eventually, I could format data and install the ROM.

I am not sure what was the problem. I think the reason was the conection with the PC. When I repeated the process without the USB connected, all was fine.

Thanks.

Hello everyone, could anyone help me to migrate from ROM xXx to Android 9?

I am currently using the ROM xXx but when trying to switch to another ROM I have problems with bootloop.

I tried following the procedures outlined in the last comments of the original thread but did not succeed, could anyone help me with a step by step to get out of the ROM and go to version 9 of android?

[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Dirk:
You'll need to be on your PC for this. Make sure you backup anything you want to keep from Internal Storage:

OOS:

https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-5/how-to/oneplus-5-mirrors-official-oxygen-os-t3628190

1) Wipe and Format everything in TWRP.

2) Move OOS 5.1.3 (Full Zip) to Internal Storage

3) Install 5.1.3 and nothing else (You will lose TWRP, but don't worry abut that now)

4) OTA up to 5.1.7

5) If you don't get offered OTA to 9.0.1 use full zip from here: https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-5/how-to/official-oxygenos-4-5-2-7-1-1-ota-t3627003

6) Once on OOS 9.0.1 you can use Fastboot to flash latest Codeworkx TWRP: https://sourceforge.net/projects/cheeseburgerdumplings/files/16.0/cheeseburger/recovery/

If you want to install a custom ROM after that:

7) Wipe and Format

8) Install Pie ROM/Gapps etc

Thx for Help dude, but i have a problem.

I backed up my stuff and joined TWRP, after joining TWRP I went to WIPE> Format Data.

[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] josebeserra:
I downloaded it again and tried the installation but again I got the same error when trying to install.

I am doing the download again but this time I will try to download without using download managers, in the previous attempts I used the Internet Download Manager (IDM) to do the downloads, do you recommend some download manager or browser?

I will also download via mobile data on the 4G network.

Please give me your opinion, is there any version of TWRP that is recommended for installation? is it not the version I'm using that might not be reading the file?

Anything else, do I need to install 5.1.3 exactly or can I get a version prior to it?

Are you on xXx No Limits 4.3 (Nougat - 4.5.14) or xXx No Limits 4.3 Magisk Rom?

If you are talking about the Magisk Rom then we need to know what OOS version you are on to be able to give you the right advise.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] strongst:
Maybe you can try with this recovery: twrp-3.2.3-0-20181031-codeworkx-cheeseburger.img

And see if it works.

Otherwise I would recommend to download OxygenOS 5.1.4 and try to flash that.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] josebeserra:
I'm currently in version 4.3 Magisk, I think this can make it easier to find a possible output or end up making it more difficult.

I will test with the one that recommended me and I will also download version 5.1.4
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] strongst:
4.3 xXx magisk means you're running a stock oxygenOS where xXx 4.3 mod is running. Do you remember which oxygenOS version it was? 5.1.4 5.1.7 or whatever?
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Z-Blade:
It could make things easier. If your phone still boots into OOS, go into Setting and scroll to the very bottom and select About Phone. Look at what Oxygen OS you are running. What you need to do is get that version all the way up to 5.1.7. Once you are there, you can just flash 9.0.2.

[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] strongst:
Ok, so you're on a patched xXx rom not stock rom with xXx mod. Weird setup :rolleyes:

Anyway, did 5.1.4 sucessfully flash without error 7?
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] josebeserra:
I have not tried to install 5.1.4 yet, I was trying to 5.1.3 as it was suggested, I will download version 5.1.4 that is in this repository (https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-5/how-to/oneplus-5-mirrors-official-oxygen-os-t3628190), and I will try to make the installation clean, ie format all the data, move the ZIP into the internal memory and try to see if it works.

I will try to clarify about the patch in case I try to reinstall ROM No Limits I need to install the full version which is 12.0 and patch 4.3 is just an update patch for the latest version and I can also go back to version 12.0.

Version 5.1.4 I have not yet tested if I can install it without errors, I will do it soon and I will come back with the result.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Z-Blade:
I think 5.1.4 should do the trick. I would highly recommend you wipe everything including systems, internal and data. This will pretty much give you a blank phone. Connect the phone to your computer and copy over 5.1.4 to the internal storage through TWRP, it should be the only file you see in your sdcard. Flash it and you should be good.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] josebeserra:
Okay, I'll do the test and I'll come back soon with the result, I'll change the version of TWRP too, this may be the problem.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] josebeserra:
Bringing the result of a few more tests, I first changed the recovery version, I went to the twrp-3.2.3-0-20181031-codeworkx-cheeseburger.img as suggested and after that I formatted all the data and started to appear a new one Error that was Failed to mount '/ vendor' (Invalid argument), I tried to install the 5.1.3 ROM and also to 5.1.4, which it was indicating was installing but at the end of the installation again I returned the error Failed to mount '/ vendor '(Invalid argument).

After that I reinstalled ROM No Limits 12.0 v. 5.1.3.

Does anyone know how to solve this new error?
