[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] mymagicmyhero:
Hi guys,

I am wondering is there a tweak or some way to tweak the size of the icons in OneUI Home?

I wrote this in Reddit, but I still haven't received a working solution, so I decided to post my question here:

I've recently bought S10e and when you switch the grid from 4x5 to 4x6 the icons are getting too small.

Honestly, I think that's a bug, because there is plenty of space left on the screen, especially between icons and at the bottom, and beside this, folder icons are staying bigger, which should be the case in the app drawer. Looks very ugly, unfinished this way.

Already tried 3rd party launcher but there isn't any which is allowing to place icons in the drawer in custom order( most of them sort alphabetically).

I've also tried changing the dpi in developer options to from 411 to 450 and that did what I wanted, but there's a problem with the font in app drawer getting too small...

I would appreciate any help!
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] marcomatocci@gmail.com:
I Have same problem too! Icons are too small in s10e i hate this. Before update i think that icons were a little more bigger than now. It's really sad that in 2019 doesn't exist any tweak or APK for display resolution and One UI icon size. Any way for resolve this ?
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] riggerman0421:
Can't help with a custom app drawer layout, but Nova launcher will allow you set custom icon size both on your homescreen and in your app drawer. You can increase the size up to 150%. And yes, I checked and it works with the stock icons.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] RobboW:
Also Lawnchair Launcher.

I don't bother with any other now. It's very good.

I'm using Samsung galaxy gear s3 for almost 1 year and want to change to android watch so which one better Huawei watch GT vs Huawei watch 2 ?

and why ?
[Huawei Watch 2] dersie:
Watch GT is only a tracker, no smartwatch. Just basic notification (no action) and a weather screen. Otherwise 0 app and 0 watchface.
[Huawei Watch 2] ecko2010:
thank you [MENTION=3860278]dersie[/MENTION]
[Huawei Watch 2] csritian:
I also changed from gear s3 to hw2. The reason was better integration with google, like google now, google fit etc. Hw2 is lagging compared with gear s3. But I hope for a good update from Google. I can say that gear s3 is more "colourful" than hw2. Cant really say that it worth the change. You can better wait for sw. updates from Samsung in my opinion.
[Huawei Watch 2] aindow:
I've just bought a Watch 2 and whilst I did consider the GT for the better water resistance and battery life, I chose the Watch 2 due to it supporting extra apps and Google Pay.

What root and Xposed Setup are note 9 960F Dual sim users using ? Oreo+Root+Xposed OR Pie+Root+EdXposed.

I managed to get root , magisk , edxposed working on Pie On March Security Patch. But the system became unstable after i restored titanium backup data restore. The SystemUI stopped responding frequently and after some troubleshooting i was not able to find a solution.I managed to use a stable system for a brief period of time and it wasnt impressive at all.

The second problem i faced is listed here (unable to setup IRIS,Fingerprint lock)

After a full odin flash , root , I failed in replicating root and magisk due to various problems like : unofficial binaries,etc.

I am thinking of sticking with Oneplus5T and selling the Note 9 . Oneplus speed and setup is addictive. I can live with the inferior hardware.

Before the switch i am thinking of trying root+xposed setup on oreo
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] bandario:
How did you go about this? Using the old root methods listed in here? Once you have achieved installation of TWRP, you would be far safer to just flash one of the various custom roms with a good rep and go from there.

Are you on Snapdragon or Xynos?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] abs0lut3z33r0:
I did not buy note 9 for using it with custom rom. Custom rom has its own set of problems. The biggest jolt would be a reduced camera app. My old phone would be better than a custom rom

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] abs0lut3z33r0:
After using Note 9 for a brief period of time , i understood samsung devices are not for me. My last Samsung device was note 4 . The dual version performed horribly with 16gb memory. I can live with the inferior hardware of OP5T for now and will probably upgrade it with OP7. Oneplus opmtization is the best and its addictive. Also on note 9 i missed "Island " Android for work support. Even with all the modification i have on my OP5T its super fast.

Hi. Well I speak Spanish and I used the Google translator.

Well here is my dilemma. I had my Mi A2 with Miui 10, root and twrp. I download from xiaomi.eu la rom 10.3.14 for Mi6x and the i try to falsh but i didn't delete the folder firmware update. (I do not know if it matters) when I power on the phone remains in boot loop. I did not have access to the recovery or twrp. (vol + + pwr) only to fastboot mode. The Mi Flash program error with the original rom of Mia2 (android one) and the rom mi6x (miui 10). And touching blocking the bootloader. From there I see "the system has been destroyed ...". from that moment I did everything. Test point edl and Mi flash recognize as COM# but the flash error. I tried with the screen in fastboot also skips error. flash rom Mi a2 and mi6x. I try directly from the .bat but close immediately. xiaomi my unlock does not work. I do not know what else to do. I have installed all the usb drivers and nothing. I try with 3 pc's. really the one with the solution is a God.

Yes. With the .bat but didn't work. The cad Windows close quickly.

Flash Hex or RA kernel.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] jesan9:
thats because the fastboot is not in the same folder as the .bat, and you hast to flash hex v288 for wayne in order to 9.3.14 to boot.

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] jimmyrs1:
Hi everyone, I have a question about Pocophone Roms...

I saw exists stable and beta, so what is the best rom I should install?

For example, Motorola has stock and soak test (beta) the stable have all the improvements of soak test and it's the better

Pixel has Developer preview and final. final its the best rom

So, in this case, which is the best rom for pocophone? MIUI stable 10.2.3 or MIUI 9.3.18 beta? best performance, best camera, everything better, and Netflix HD haha
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] santiagoruel13:
Hmm. If you want an advanced features,, more updated.. then choose global developer roms.. these roms have features that are being tested for weeks and months.. if it wont produce any bugs.. now if it didnt have any bugs.. it will now be produced as a global stable rom... But global stable rom took about 1-2months before it was released in an open.. so global beta or global dev roms will be having new features again to be tested.

Follow these easy steps

Makes sure you have the GSI image on your sdcard before starting this.

1.Unlock Bootloader

2. Boot into bootloader, check your slot if on B switch to A and vice versa.(fastboot set_active a/b)

3.Download twrp and flash it (fastboot flash boot boot.img)

4.Boot into twrp,Format data or in bootloader run this command "fastboot format userdata" to get rid if encryption else gsi wont boot then go to reboot switch slots to your opposite one, go to "install" navigate to your sdcard where you place the gsi , look for 'select image" then flash your gsi.

5.To flash gapps if your using a aosp gsi go to twrp then go into /wipe/advanced wipe/ select system on the options then "repair or change file system" then press on "resize file system" this will resize your system partiton back to 2.7gigs and allow you to flash gapps.

6.Go back to "reboot" and select the opposite slot that you selected on step 4, then reboot to system ignore the "no system image detected" message

7.Boot back into boot loader and run "fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img" updated link with .45 update vbeta.img https://www.mediafire.com/file/by0s4xv6op9so0d/vbmeta.img/file

8. Your gsi "should" boot

Thanks though.

To my knowledge and by the guys on the telegram group, oxygen os boots and has some bluetooth issues same with hydrogenOS fyi its one the most stable gsi's from erfan, Pixel beta Q also works but has quite a lot of issues, i havent tested sony/miui or any of the other gsi's sorry.

Ok.

So today being a holiday, gave hefty 10 hours to try every single GSI mentioned in this thread. And here are my findings:

1. MIUI port - Boots, buttery smooth, no mobile data or VoLTE, as mentioned in the OP, ims.apk doesn't get installed, hence unusable.

2. OOS port - Bootloops, tried multiple times, no success.

3. One UI - Unable to flash the image, says unable to write in the system partition.

4. Xperia Port - Again, boot loop.

5. HOS - Unable to boot.

Did not try Android Q.

One more thing, as per the instruction, when I try to 'Format Data' through TWRP, it says unable to erase data, data partition busy.

I followed step by step for all the mentioned ROMs, can someone help me?

Also, ims.apk is uninstallable, tried many times.
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] rafyvitto:
1. The app has to be pushed to /system/app should work that way.

2. You should be able to wipe data if you go to bootloader switch to slot were trwp is not installed then switch back to were it IS installed then boot twrp and wipe data, thats what i do and it works.

3. Try the updated gsi's from the link i posted a few post back.

Also, i added lates .45 vbeta.img and patched boot.img for root on first post, enjoy guys.
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] hamzasr:
I tried so many times, but the results are unchanged, only MIUI boots.

But when I pushed the ims.apk and added the lines to build.prop it got stuck at bootloop.

I tried everything, I just need OOS to boot.

Also, one more thing I noticed is, MIUI boots only when I don't flash permissive2.zip, when I flash this zip even MIUI fails to boot

I donwloaded all the newest GSIs and followed the instructions properly.

Tried flashing nubia red magic os but the system.img is to large for our system partition, im gonna extract it and see if i can make it smaller so i can flash and see if it boots and what not.
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] rafyvitto:
Manage to make the nubia redmagic gsi small enough to flash it but it wont boot =/, on the bright side i booted OSS without formatting internal storage, dint flash permissive zip ether, but had to flash osshdrfix.zip, once it booted up got a message saying system was corrupted and had to format userdata this time, so from what i can gather its better to leave asus stock on your active slot and then flash gsi's on twrp slot without formatting data this way gsi's boot up and once they bootup then you can go ahead and format userdata, and i have no sound at all on OSS =/.
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] hamzasr:
No audio from headphone jack either.?
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] rafyvitto:
Did not try that, sorry, since i had no sound i didn't test much at all.
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] hamzasr:
Guys...!!

Finally..!!

I got everything working on PE9 GSI.

Audio from speaker, audio from headphone jack, data, VoLTE, fingerprint, everything.

The steps are simple:

1. Unlock bootloader and install TWRP in opposite slot to that of your stock slot.

2. Boot into bootloader (default slot where stock room is installed), format user data using fastboot command.

3. Disable verification by flashing vbmeta via fastboot.

4. Flash ROM into system by fastboot flash command. (Don't flash permissive.zip, it breaks the system).

5. Change slot and boot into TWRP and flash GApps (optional)

6. Boot into system, install Magisk Manager, ES file Explorer.

7. Reboot into bootloader, flash patched_boot.

8. Reboot into system, open ES File Explorer > Root Explorer > Grant Root > Mount /system as 'rw'

9. Install ims.apk as installing an app (Don't push it into /system/app).

10. Edit the build.prop as mentioned in the OP with ES Note Editor > Save and reboot.

Voila!! You have working VoLTE, Wi-Fi Calling and Data.

Ok guys.

So here's the update.

I have tried a lot of GSIs, here is the list of GSIs that work well with VoLTE on ZF5Z:

1. Pixel Experience.

2. MIUI (Works in my phone, but many of the users have reported that it doesn't boot, also VoLTE is tricky, few of the times data stops working, needs reboot and sometimes re-flashing of ROM solves it).

3. Resurrection Remix

4. HavocOS

5. Zirconium

6. Arrow OS.

7. Phh Treble

I guess all AOSP GSIs might work with our phone.

Also, VoEnabler Magisk Module works with almost all the ROMs perfectly to enable Internet calling (VoLTE).

[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] T_ReKT:
To install a new GSI on an existing GSI do I have to flash stock first or can I just directly install the new image?
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] rafyvitto:
No, no need to go back to stock, just wipe system and data and reflash your desired gsi image.

Or do you mean update existing gsi, if that's the case just flash the updated gsi over the current one and your all set.
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] hamzasr:
Updating the GSI with dirty flashing has never worked for me. I always have to Wipe Data to flash newer version of GSI to work.
