[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] cyberage29:
So what everyone is saying is that noone really knows. Im in Miami using T-Mobile and i just installed HardSPL and it worked like a charm. Now i want to install a new rom and theres a bit too much info for me to untagle at this point. So far i gather that some rom's come with different and changable radio versions built in while others work with only 1 version. Now im curious.... how does one install and change these radio settings?

can i just download one and install it?

is there any thread or some sort of complied radio proformances by region? how do these radio versions differ by regional location? i have so many questions....
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] RizwanKhan:
seems like everyone has got a radio question today :) but here is my answer to help u:

u need to flash a radio like u flash a rom. when u download a radio it has the customruu.exe w/ it. key is to remember one thing: wm6 roms work w/ wm6 radios and wm6.1 roms work w/ wm6.1 radio only. most roms will work with different radios unless the chef specifically has it matched to one radio only.

for more info plz read kaiser wiki.

p.s. while flashing radio ur phone has to be sync w/ pc

>> I have ended up going back to 1.56.405.5 (radio 1.27.12.11) standar HTC rom version. I like it the best

radios 1.27.xx.xx are the only that will be compatible with WM6.0 ROM. Newer 1.5x.xx.xx and 1.6x.xx.xx radios will cause the following issue:

You are going to lose multimedia sound completely: no ringtones, etc, etc.

In call sound will be likely still functional, but I don't belive that this is something you are looking forward to anyway.

I cannot recommend you the best radio for you ROM, but some would say that : 1.27.12.32 is the one.

I hope it helps.

I'm using dutty's rom WM6.1 WWE Rom. I havent changed the Radio yet. I've been using the ROM for about 2 months now and everything was working fine. But recently my phone won't ring. I can still make and receive calls though. Could the problem be because I haven't changed the Radio?

Is there a way/app to tell in a given area what LTE bands your carrier is actively using? Trying to choose a phone and would like to steer away from phones that handle almost any band, they either cost way too much, or would be a downgrade from my existing phone. I use an app called LTE Discovery but that seems only to tell you what band you're connected to. And there's also OpenSignal, which seems to give you coverage stats per carrier, but still, not the answer i need.
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DragonFire1024:
I have been saving this for a while because it can be a headache when you forget about it. Also this seems to stop at least one headache now that most of have TWRP.

Basically Amazon removed a permission from the platform.xml that allows apps to write to and be moved to external storage (sdcard) PROPERLY.

There is a couple of cons to this (isn't there always lol). When you uninstall an app, the data will persist in the external storage which means you have to delete it manually. This can be a headache if you forget about this and need to reflash stock. So make sure to format your card before doing that.

The second con is you have to make sure all of the toggles for Amazon's external storage settings are turned off. So if you have Amazon apps still installed, they're going to get lost. Just delete them, their data folders and sideload them from adb from somewhere like APK Mirror (some are in the play store).

Instructions:

1. With a root explorer, navigate to /system/etc/permissions and open platform.xml in the native text editor, or copy the file to your sdcard then to PC and open it in Notepad++.

2. Look for the following permission: WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE and add the following line to the with the others, above sdcard_r:

<group gid="media_rw" />

3. Look for the permission WRITE_MEDIA_STORAGE and add the following line under media_rw:

<group gid="sdcard_rw" />

4. Save the file and reboot to recovery and wipe the cache. Reboot the device. If you have flash fire working, wipe the dalvik and cache through the app.

5. Now you have the ability to use nearly all of your available storage, without anything screaming at you every few minutes. Thank me by hitting the thumbs up button a million times and get rid of that bottle of aspirin.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers] TheDeviantFox:
Hi, until few days ago I was getting 6h of on screen time without a problem(including some gaming), however 4 days ago for no reason i was surprised by having 19% battery left with just 1h20m screen on. It did not deteriorate over time, it was just one night fine and other night I was late to work because 50% was not enough, and it has shut down. Has anyone been affected by something similar? I am using xiaomi.eu rom, and did not make any update during past week. I tried rebooting and wiping cache but it did not help.

Thanks for the feedback!

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers] TheDeviantFox:
Yes, i did full wipe but did not attempt dirty install beforehand so I cant say whether it would work or not.

To be honest I don't think you should do it if you are still on stock rom(and I assume you are) as you would need to factory reset your phone in order to unlock bootloader(and probably lose warranty), flash recovery and then flash one of custom roms. If you are having similar issues with battery drain, I would first recommend factory resetting your phone, and only then looking into custom software. If you have decided to go for it I would recommend following this guide: https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/how-to-flash-xiaomi-eu-rom-tutorial.40557/ and getting xiaomi.eu rom.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers] lukigoes:

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers] Schumi_wk:
To be honest I don't think 5 hours of SOT is bad. You have SOT where you game hard and screen gives bright light and you have SOT where you watch youtube in a dark room. SOT will be a whole different thing than.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers] Goldi6:
I need help! I have stock rom with locked bootloader and I only get about 4 hours SOT. NO gaming, just some apps and youtube, webbrowsing. I am familiar with unlocking bootloader and flashing twrp recovery. So how can I fix my battery drain problem?

[Wileyfox Swift] paai:
Hi,

yesterday I installed lineageos 15.1 on my Wileyfox Swift plus (lineage-15.1-20190117-UNOFFICIAL-marmite.zip). SInce then, the screen says 'Charging rapidly' and reality says 'no-no, you will need a day before the battery is full again'. I tried different USB cables to no avail. Not only the phone is not really useable this way, but it also makes it more difficult to tinker with various builds, as you need a full battery before you can experiment.

Is this a known issue with 15.1? Should I go back to Android 7.1?

Paai
[Wileyfox Swift] paai:
After some more experiments I found that a Huawei super charger would rapidly charge the LOS 5.1 phone. The old charger, a 2..1 Amp charger that worked before, now only would charge very slowly. A charger in the cigarette lighter socket of my car, that used to charge relatively slow, now discharged the phone real fast. But all would have the message 'charging rapidly' on the screen.

I think I see a pattern here.

Cant hold any apps in ram, even with just chrome and messenger it happens to refresh

Is it just me or its a problem of Pie itself?

Yes it's just you. I tried testing mine just now.

Gallery in a specific photo

Facebook messenger in a spefic chatbox

Facebook app in a specific photo

Netflix in a specific movie

And now Im typing this stuff and tried to ope them again and they were all still in the same place.

What I'd suggest you to do is a factory. Senior member XDA Detection mentioned, major OS updates leaves bugs, requiring a clean fresh restart.

[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers] Sanatus:
It have been almost a year since mi max 3 came out. Why there is such poor development, people are not interested in it compared to max and max 2.

There is no single custom rom for mi max 3.Xiaomi is way too slow with updates.I have a feeling that for an average Joe in Android community the better option is ios ecosystem.At least you can't go wrong with os support and regular updates.And there will always be an jailbreak if you want to go custom. Apple or jailbreak community have insanely way way way better support compared to Android. Did also anyone noticed annoying ads on Miui that xiaomi is pushing on their integrated system apps ,is driving me crazy.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers] Spillunke:
The xiaomi.eu rom is custom, isnt it?

Something developed just for the Mi Max3 is always better than a GSI

I'm using HavocOS right now and there hasn't been a real update to it since last October.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers] SUPERUSER:
Yes, there are some things that don't work as good with a "vanilla" treble instead of a rom with blobs just for this device.

Some of which are bad enough for me to go back to xiaomi.eu rom instead.

The most notable things are

Viper4android, when the screen is off there is a stutter and change in volume when the module is killed and started again and this happens every few minutes which gets annoying and I instead played music from my laptop while working.

This was a common thing back with lollypop and kitkat on other phones back in the day but not as annoying as with the mi max 3.

On xiaomi.eu this is nonexistent which is kind of unusual, the rom is unusual stable with Viper4android.

Volte does not work on treble of course, but on pie based treble you will get hsdpa data connection when calling.

On aicp-mordiford the data connection shut off completely without hsdpa data while calling.

How is GPS performance for you on havoc?

For me I get four satellites in a village with poor signal to all off them which is not enough for a position lock.

I have been driving one time and I lost GPS several times.

On Xiaomi.eu GPS is working flawlessly with a lock immediately even indoors in a concrete building.

If you have a generic board like a pixel device or one plus you probably can get a fairly working device but xiaomi does things differently and depends on a custom rom for working volte
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers] Jirv0id:
I generally don't care, stock ROMs used to be terrible and lack many feature. The stock Xiaomi rom does exactly what is needed for me so I find no need to flash potentially unstable ROMs on my device. I used to flash weekly even daily. I don't need to anymore.

Thank you for your effort. Will there ever be an official release? If not, why do they not release even a 8.1 official?

I find it strange that LineageOS has still official nightly builds for even the very old nexus, but for the pixel2 there is nothing official.
[Google Pixel 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] leqacy:
Thanks for your interest.

There will be an official release if a maintainer submits a request for an unofficial build to become official and gets accepted by LineageOS. Maintainers are people like me, who do this as a hobby, not the LineageOS team. So at some point my builds could become official, if I submit a request for review and my request gets accepted. In order to pass the review, the items on the quality control checklist need to be met. You can read more about the process on the LineageOS Website. This could be a starting point:

https://wiki.lineageos.org/device_requests.html

These are the device support requirements:

https://github.com/LineageOS/charter/blob/master/device-support-requirements.md

If you are interested in getting the Pixel 2 on the list of officially supported devices, then assisting me with the quality assurance is a great way to contribute.. Thus, I am grateful for everyone, who flashes my builds and posts feedback in this thread.
[Google Pixel 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] munchy_cool:
great stuff.

personally i dont understand why people want official builds of roms, unofficial are just as good as official. they may not pass the official standards or requirements but as long as everything is working it should not be a problem.

official is just a stamp these days, people need to understand that. the code base is same for official or unofficial. Plus, official means a responsibility on people who do it for fun and for free.

heck even devices with official los members working on them (moto x4, poco f1) dont have official los builds.

Here is an unofficial build of lineage OS 15.1 for walleye. (Not by this compiler). If they decide not to support 15.1 then this build is relatively stable.

Regarding PNG vulnerabilities: These vulnerabilities exist(ed) in both LineageOS 16 and 15.1. They were patched with the February 2019 security patch. This patch is contained in my build, which is linked in the first post.

You can check for the patch level in Settings->About phone->Android version. The current status in my build is: February 5, 2019. The link directs you to the list of monthly updates. If you select February 2019 in the list, you will see the 3 PNG vulnerabilities you are referring to are already patched.

I hope that addresses your security concern with the LineageOS 16.0 build.

Thank you for testing. I just tested with the data transfer tool on macOS. I was able to transfer files to and from the device without any problems, after setting USB Preferences to "File Transfer".

What problems were you having exactly and on which OS?

I'll address other points in later posts.

[Google Pixel 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] bleh815:
First of all i'd like to thank you for your efforts in building this ROM and sharing your work with the community! It's really cool to have recent updates of LineageOS for the Pixel 2.

You have picked up the great work from Jorgen2009 as it seems but unlike the original thread you do not provide any details on wether if and how this ROM is dependend on a specific(?) version of the vendor partition. I assume that one has to flash Google Factory Image from february in order to use this ROM?

Furtheremore i'd like to know about what Jorgen2009 has called "the Pixel specific bits for unlimited photo upload for instance". Unsure what this means in technical detail but it's definatly something i would want to preseve when moving to this ROM. For example, the ability to install original Google Camera from PlayStore and use all of its Pixel related features seems somewhat tricky to achive. Is this solely related to GApps or is there some relation to the ROM itself? And if so, is that included here?

Last but not least about GApps itself. As i have understood from the former maintainer getting them work with this ROM was also some kind of a challenge. I'm going to install MindTheGApps on top of this so any hints are highly appreciated.

I guess i'll create some backups now and then just give it a try to migrate my device from Jorgen2009's november release to this ROM.
[Google Pixel 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] bleh815:
Wow, that was easy! I've successfully migrated my existing installation (almost) without loosing any data. :D

So here's what i did:

1. Install february factory image walleye-pq2a.190205.002-factory-781881b5.zip without wiping data

2. Boot into twrp 3.2.2-1 via fastboot

3. Flash lineage-16.0-20190210-UNOFFICIAL-walleye.zip without wiping cache nor data

4. Flash twrp-pixel2-installer-walleye-3.2.3-1.zip

5. Flash Magisk-v18.1.zip

6. Flash MindTheGapps-9.0.0-arm64-20190122_071653.zip (official MindTheGapps-9.0.0-arm64-20190203_191233.zip did not work for me probably because of this)

7. Reboot

Only a few Google apps kept force closing such as Maps, Google Camera and YouTube (i dont use any other Google Apps) but PlayStore worked right away so i simply reinstalled them. :victory:
[Google Pixel 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] leqacy:
At the moment my focus is on 16.0. If there is more demand for 15.1 I may consider running a build.

Thank you for your feedback! This is an important point and I edited the installation instructions to include this. I had February 2019 stock installed before flashing my LineageOS build, so I did not encounter any problems with regards to the vendor image, but if you have an older vendor image on your phone you may have problems, since there were some API changes lately.

So far my build does not contain the modifications from jorgen2009. I started my build on a clean plate, so in terms of modifications my build does not have a lot in common with jorgen, the LineageOS and device tree is in common, of course. My build does not contain Pixel specific modifications at the moment.

I went down the microG path and got GmsCore working.
[Google Pixel 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] OrangeFlare:
Does this contain the squeeze for assistant functionality?

I doubt it but honestly, this is the one feature that's keeping me from switching to a custom rom

Additionally what else would I lose in terms of base features or is it everything?

(Sorry I have a decent amount of experience with Lineage and Custom Roms but this is the first time I have ever been able to get a phone with an unlocked bootloader)
[Google Pixel 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] nolimit78:
