It seems eXistenZ 4.0 has include the second feature (allowing to choose whether to show LTE or 4G).

However, the first issue seems different from what I found out later on. It's actually not a misbehavior when setting the "Inactivity threshold" to 0kB/s. It seems the status bar itself doesn't honor that option and would

still hide if both directions are 1kB/s or below, while it is properly honored in the expanded statusbar.

critical issue : When turn on phone, display to enter password. Even other methods set. (display to enter PIN even though i have set the pattern. when i set pin, phone asked pattern Even if the locksettings.db is deleted the android still requires a password when start phone I reset and clean install my phone more than 10 times cuz of this problem\

I have tried various attempts to solve the problem, but it has all failed

If eXistenZ is not installed, the operation was normal

Is there any way to turn this feature off?
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] LSS4181:
Current existing versions of TWRP have problems with encryption (I encountered it myself as well). Use this script to disable forceencrypt so the phone won't be automatically encrypted. To use: clone the repo, put the files in the repo into a zip and flash it with TWRP. You'll need to format data to completely remove the encrypted data partition (back up things first), and you'll need to flash the script every time you flash a new kernel (boot) image.

Or if you still need encryption, you may try iovf's recently released TWRP build which is supposed to have fixed the encryption-related issue. It's available on eXistenZ's telegram channel.

EDIT: It seems the issue's been reported in the telegram channel as well, and appears to be related to encryption type ID. For now, if your phone's encrypted, AVOID setting any screen unlock options. If you really need an unlock option, format data and disable forceencrypt so the phone won't be encrypted, effectively avoiding the issue.

followed every step correctly but after booting existenz rom i went back to twrp by [MENTION=3410564]iovf[/MENTION] (dwnlded from tg channel) whenever i flash magisk 18.1 the existenz rom gets into bootloop, so in order to boot the rom again i have to uninstall magisk and reflash the v3 [MENTION=3410564]iovf[/MENTION] kernel. i didn't even use a lockscreen based on pin, password or pattern and most of all when i try to flash the dm-verity disabler cloned zip i get error 127...

nevermind wrong post
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] LSS4181:
Not sure how to describe the procedure accurately...

If you download zip directly from github, the stuffs would be inside a folder, which is not correct. You need the contents (like the META-INF folder) at the root level of the archive. If you git cloned the repo, just enter the folder and put everything inside that folder into a zip file. If it still doesn't work... you probably need to perform a zipalign on the created archive.

It shouldn't be difficult if you know well about the structure of a flashable zip. The mandatory META-INF folder at the root level of the archive is where the recovery looks for the entrypoint (update-binary & updater-script).

As for Magisk bootloop... for me, with Magisk 18.1 the ROM doesn't bootloop, but with Magisk Canary it does. Not sure about the reason, but in any case, to use disable forceencrypt, you need to flash it right after flashing the kernel, before you flash Magisk, to be safe.

Where is 4.0? Can't wait to get my hands on this... :)
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] LSS4181:
Can't allow USB debugging, "because an app is obscuring a permission request".

Currently on eXistenZ 4.0 (from Telegram channel). I'm finding myself unable to turn on USB debugging. When I try pressing OK it complains.

Because an app is obscuring a permission request, Settings can't verify your response.

Some suggested disabling permissions to display over other apps. I've disabled everything except SystemUI (which can't be disabled), and the problem's still there.

EDIT: Solved. It seems disabling Side Sense (or maybe also one-handed mode) fixed it. I don't use those features anyway. (I believe Side Sense might be what was called "Edge Gestures" on other phones which was known to be a culprit)

I installed SF Font from the apple site, and they have otf extension. Everytime I change the fonts in my phone, I edit the fonts.xml and change the ".ttf" to ".otf" and it works.

In this ROM, after the change, the phone works very well until SystemUI begin to freeze and force close a lot. Even if I get back to the old xml file, SystemUI still freeze. ¿Can you tell me what's wrong?
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] Vaith:
You need correct kernel to change font.

i made this zip from the given git repo but it ain't working, check it please and i wanted screenlock so enabling pattern is fine, but on bootup it asks pin so i enter the pin in the same format of the pattern and boom the android starts fine..
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] LSS4181:
Were you previously encrypted? From the looks of it your data partition is still encrypted. Did TWRP prompt you for password?

After properly applying this zip you need to format data (not just wipe). Make sure you back things up before doing so. If the zip's been properly applied, after formatting data, your phone won't be encrypted upon initial setup (you can confirm it on Security section in settings, it should read "Phone not encrypted").

You said it ain't working... did it output errors when flashing? From the look of it you compressed the zip correctly so you probably have already patched the kernel image. If it's reporting errors, zipalign it (search the forums here for how... I couldn't remember well).

And since you can unlock the phone by inputting PIN the same way as you draw the pattern... it seems the patterns can be mapped to respective PIN numbers just fine. Which version are you on? The 3.5 from here, or the 4.0 from Telegram Channel?

I think you'll need to join the telegram channel, download the 4.0 version of the zip and the latest TWRP build for our device from the channel, and test if the problem's still there. If the problem is present with the latest versions, ask [MENTION=3410564]iovf[/MENTION] about it. Since the problem's already been reported (more than once) he might be already working on it.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] khanhesham:
i'm on existenz 4.0 and i've joined tg channel and i got [MENTION=3410564]iovf[/MENTION] twrp and 4.0 addon..
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] LSS4181:
So you're already on latest. It seems from the talks in the channel the problem's still not solved yet. It looks like eXistenZ doesn't map boot-up security options correctly: If you set a PIN, it thinks you set a pattern, and vice versa (NOTE: If your PIN has 0 in it then you're out of luck).

If you already flashed the zip and succeeded, check if the phone is not encrypted. If the phone is indeed not encrypted, you're safe to set any security options.

You can flash over 3.7.0.

If your existenz settings is named incorrectly/has a weird icon -

Using a root explorer go to system/priv-app/existenz_settings folder and rename the apk inside as existenz_settings.apk.bak and reboot,

then go to same folder and remove the .bak and reboot.

I would recommend a clean install using the same instructions as the original patch, below.

It seems the new TWRP couldn't flash certain zips.

I just tested flashing things with iovf's TWRP build, but it appears to be unable to flash things. It gives me Error 1 on several files (such as Zest kernel, NanoDroid). I reverted to Sjll's TWRP for now.

As for the Disable dm_verity zip reporting error 127... I'm also having it, and this one could be fixed by replacing update-binary with the one that comes from Magisk 18.1.

[Sony Xperia XZ Premium ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] TjNiko:
what i did flased FTF booted the device fully once flashed twrp 3.2.1 and then deleted data, chace and dalvik flashed the v4 zip. it just bootlooped after that.

I install 3.5 patch and see if that works, maybe the v4 ist just a patch and not standalone.

Edit: flashing 3.5 works.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] Beetle84:
v4 is a standalone or update, i have upgraded from 3.7 to 4.0, and done a clean install of 4.0 from stock.

Flash ftf, flash twrp, boot twrp and flash magisk BEFORE booting.

Boot, set up to homescreen, power off.

Boot to TWRP, factory reset (wipe data cache and dalvik), then flash 4.0 (and any kernel if you want) and magisk.

Reboot

If you get bootloops, wipe cache and dalvik only and reboot.

I have done flashing. Everything is fine. But I am facing a problem with SECURITY LOCK. After flash, I have Pattern Lock with fingerlock. But when I restart device the lock changes to Pin Lock. And if I set pin lock after Factory reset in Twrp, the lock changed in Pattern lock. Any solution?
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] Beetle84:
Use the pattern screen as a pin screen, or the pin screen as a pattern. If you had a pin with a 0 you are buggered

Envoyé de mon G8141 en utilisant Tapatalk
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] Beetle84:
Its not twrp, i think if you set a pattern or pin for lockscreen, the phone shows pattern screen when you set a pin, and pin screen when you set a pattern.

If you use swipe to unlock you will never see this.

The trick is if you use a pin, DONT USE A 0, as the pattern screen only has 9 dots (1 to 9).

How to delete this information?
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] LSS4181:
This only happens if you're requiring password to unlock data partition upon startup (same as the password prompt for TWRP). I've disabled forceencrypt and formatted data partition so that the phone won't encrypt my data partition, and I don't have any problem with using the PIN afterwards. It's already clear that the problem's not with TWRP, it's because eXistenZ got confused with PIN or Pattern.

And it seems iovf's recovery has some other issues which resulted in "error 1" on several zips I have, and all those zips flashed properly after reverting to Sjll's TWRP build (meant for Treble) which I was previously using. However, Sjll's TWRP couldn't mount OEM properly unlike iovf's (which I need to remove a few bloatware from there, and surprisingly, after debloating, the OEM partition's contents take only 6MB). Bloatware on OEM partition can only be deleted by hand as I can't systemlessly do so using NanoDroid.

I've done a rebuild using Customized CN 47.2.A.6.30, whose base doesn't contain GApps (they were added later systemlessly using MagicGapps), and used NanoDroid to systemlessly debloat some other stuffs, but some apps were missed by the debloat as they were present under a different name. I'm having issues with a notification sound happening whenever I open an app. It's a minor issue, though, as everything I've been using are working fine.

EDIT: It seems the homescreen app T-UI is the culprit for notifications. I'll check for settings and report bugs there then.

[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] Sinko_:
Hello, I'm interested in purchasing the Mi 8 International version and I was wondering how is it performing on the long term. I would like to know if there are any issues concerning it software wise as it seems like a great phone specs wise. Please note that I intend to keep the phone fully stock so I would appreciate to know if there are any serious issues present on the latest stock rom. I would also like to know if any battery drain is present and how much SOT it can pull out.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] catalindobre:
Actual Stock it is very good and the most stable in my experience. You shouldn't worry to much about choosing wrong because overall it is a very good package. My only small gripe was/is about its single firing speaker not up to my expectations and by that I can clearly tell you that MI A1 and A2 single firing speaker are waaay louder and sound better. GCAM works perfect nowadays on stock and returns very good photos comparable to best in class.

SOT for me in the last updates is ~5 hours, been much better on OREO for sure.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] rafaelcss:
I've always been an android user(always with flagships), but in last year I switched to the iphone 8 and by the end of the year I switched to mi8. My Phone is 100% stock, 0 mods.

iOS was insanely fluid, so my expectations before buying the mi 8 were that I was gonna have a laggish and sttutered interface, not always but sometimes, like all my past Android experiences.

When I got the phone right out of the box It was with android Oreo (MIUI 10), and I did confirm all of my expectations. Luckly few days later I got Pie update and everything became amazing, it's the most fluid Android Phone I've ever had.

In the first Pie (MIUI 10.1.1.0) update I used to have 8h of SoT and everything Else was Working great except for Google câmera, that was a crap.

The phone got another updates and the battery life decreased quite a lot, now my SoT is around 6 hours but Google câmera is Working Fine besides few bugs that are not gonna bother too much.

Comparing to the iPhone

•back facing camera is on par and maybe better in some situations, specially with gcam Nightsight, with stock or gcam

•Front Facing câmera is terrible with stock câmera, it's very hard to take a Sharp picture even with good light condition, luckly It turns out that gcam is always doing the pixel binning stuff and the pictures are Just great, better then iphone's front facing camera, even with Just 5mpx, against iphone's 7mpx

•Screen - it's a good screen, maybe better than any LCD on the market, but not the best OLED

•Speaker - i'm not the kind of guy that uses phones speakers, só I don't care, it's louder than iPhone but with less quality, and much easier to muffle.

The only thing that really bothers me is that the status bar is not alligned with the notch

My final thougths: this is probabbly the best value for money Android Phone, and even better than some much more expensive flagships
