How can i disable this 'thing', I know when i first installed this existenz (xz1 pie), I had found some setting.

I forgot the name / Location of setting and to me it is only in my way ;)
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] beautiophile:
I don't have volte in my country ATM. So no clue.

It's called Side Sense. You can go Setting>>Display>>*expand the Advanced*>>Side Sense then turn it off.

can't i install this on 47.2.A.2.33?
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] jutphaas:
Thank you so much. I like xperia/existenz roms, but some things i don't need so much ;)

I May have asked this question before, I believe since aandroid 7 weer have the split screen, dual app functionality.

At this point since i installed existenz for xz1, there is a modified navbar, which is fine, I choose the more traditional lay-out (plus left and right cursor) but how do i get the 'split screen' function back with the right (square) button? Or via another way.

I hope someone knows.. :)
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Beetle84:
Change to oreo recents style in settings/existenz settings/recent panel. Open recents menu (square button) and hold and drag to the top.

When your eXistenZ Pie have new version, Do I need to update to the new version of the original rom then can I install the new version eXistenZ or install directly on the current original rom?
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Jetbear:
Help me to install correctly this rom

Hello, can anyone help me? Tell me I need to have root to install, right? Is there any guide you can take into consideration without having difficulties with the camera? I've seen in other post that the camera stops working, and what would be the root process and installation of this rom? :good:
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] theflanker:
1 the camera never crashes

2 you have to flash magisk 18. 1 to get root and then update magisk

3 find the guide a page 10 post by beautiophile

hei niaboc79, but it is possible to have in this rom the lockscreen clock as XZ2 and above? thanks

Edit: I'm sorry I found it in lockscreen options:D:eek::fingers-crossed:
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Jetbear:
One question more

Thanks man, well i need unlock bootloader first and later root with magisk right?
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] theflanker:
Sure. Before unlocking the bootloader, save the drm keys

Yesss:good:
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Beetle84:
On xzp we have different instructions since 6.1.0.

Flash .45 firmware, dont boot.

Fastboot flash twrp

Boot to twrp, wipe data, cache and dalvik

Flash rom and magisk 18.1, reboot.

So no running through the setup steps first, and all works fine. Not sure if the same applies to XZ1 but might be worth a try next time you upgrade/reinstall.

Hey [MENTION=599722]niaboc79[/MENTION]

First of all thanks for the stellar ROM man it's excellent; very fluid and responsive. I wanted to ask about the double tap to wake feature. I see that it is present in the settings but does not work; I gather this requires a kernel tweak or a specific kernel? Any suggestions would be helpful.

Cheers
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] beautiophile:
I wish I knew the reason with XZ1 & 6.0.0. I just posted what worked for me after several trial-n-errors.

Maybe there are some conflicts between a certain stock firmware (customised) and the rom-patch. When I first tried by dirty upgrading firmware to 10.45 from 8.24, the default (your) procedure worked just fine. The second time I freshly flashed my downloaded 10.45 firmware, I found the issues of the /data partition as said above.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Beetle84:
If your steps work, then theyre right ;)

I use an older 3.2.3 twrp, latest seems to have data mounting issues for some.

Where you wrote 'no magisk here', before rebooting/formatting did you try to install the manager apk? With xzp the same happens sometimes, magisk is installed but the manager app doesnt get installed. You can find the app in the magisk zip in the common folder.

---------- Post added at 02:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:48 PM ----------

Yeah you need a double tap enabled kernel mate.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] beautiophile:
Yes. I installed the manager app and it said I didn't have magisk/root, simply reflashing magisk fixed that. Magisk disappears after the /data formatting, anyway; so that letting the reflash at the end makes sense.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] buzzsaw891:
Hey i try this and my xz1 got to bootloop

Version ok

Twrp 3.2.3

Unlocked bootloader
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] gilnfld:
Yes I thought that was the case. Can you kindly suggest a Kernel that supports DT2W for the xz1, I have looked around here on this forum and it's not entirely clear to me which Pie kernel has it.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Beetle84:
I dont think there is one, im not positive on that so maybe ask the existing kernel devs nicely if they can add it.

[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] jutphaas:
Ok Thanks.

I got a bootloop, update from 6.0.0 up 7.0.0 (flashed dirty the New ftf, plus magisk 19, plus v7 existenz)

While flashing dirty again without existenz v7 i still got it working with magisk v19

I guess my best option would be flashing clean, but if I do that, with what magisk version?(and must magisk be After or before existenz?)

Successfully upgraded from eXistenZ 6 to 7. Thanks for keeping this already awesome rom updated!

I did run into a bootloop the first flash. After re-flashing version 7 (delete cache, install rom, install magisk) and letting it bootloop a few times, it ended up booting without data loss.

Magisk 19.2 works fine on my device with existenz pie 7.0. I have updated from 18.1 to 19.2 through direct install in magisk manager.

You had to install magisk 18.0 first then existenz pie 7.0.

Edit2: There is a bug when using Dark/light themes (check attachments).

[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] yinnx1008:
I don't know where else should I open this topic. But this problem seems to be pretty consistent with all available roms for MI A2.

First post of rom topic contains section Issues/Bugs, however it's almost always empty or "you tell".

Few pages after there are numerous reports of the same bug and and even developer confirming bug exists. In most cases those bugs are not on critical components of device, but they could be on feature which some people use daily.

I for one couldn't care less if Netflix doesn't work and I would install rom anyway, but we see about 15 posts in a row people complaining about it. Developer responds 10 times with same message.

Couldn't you just put it in the first post? It would greatly reduce spam and save you some time explaining the same problem every 2 pages. Even many of well known bugs which did get fixed, screen bleeding for example were never mentioned in first post.

Please add bugs to first post after you confirm them. It saves a lot of time scrolling through 50+ pages topic that usually consist of posts from people that don't read instructions or don't know how to install roms in the first place.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] john3voltas:
Hey there.

I am not a novice to Android but by no means do I understand how it all works in the background. So I need a little help understanding something that to me is not so obvious.

I have a phone, Huawei P8 Lite, which I haven't installed any GApps after I flashed a LOS 14.1 rom.

I mostly use F-Droid apps on it but occasionally I install a random Playstore app using Aurora Store (fork of YALPS).

Now, while most stuff on F-Droid is pretty seamless to install&use, the same is not exactly true regarding Playstore stuff which usually mentions the need for Google Services Framework (GSF) if memory serves me well. And since I don't have GApps, I don't have "GSF".

I know that some apps that require "GSF" still work apparently fine without "GSF".

But there are some other apps that mention requiring "GSF" and that actually fail to work. Regarding these latter apps, is there any workaround to make these apps work without installing GApps?

I know there's a pico and nano version of GApps, but even those install stuff on my phone that I really would rather not have installed in there.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers

Thanks for your work! :cowboy:

I have a question. Is there anyway to prevent OOS Pie Community Build from corrupting the /data partition on Unlocked Bootloaders with Encrypted /data partition? They specifically designed the builds to do so. It doesn't cause it if the device is locked. Can the boot image be patched for that too?
[OnePlus 3T Guides, News, & Discussion] Xennet:
That is the duty of twrp (recovery) I suppose because with stock recovery it doesn't seem to happen and it probably doesn't have anything to do with boot image as such...but u can very well try with the patched boot image..either u can flash the patched boot image immediately after flashing the zip file and try rebooting back to twrp and see

Or replace the boot image in the OOS zip file with mine and try flashing...but no guarantees buddy...

ALWAYS BACKUP BEFORE DOING ANYTHING...THIS IS A NEW OS ANS WE ARE STILL LEARNING...
[OnePlus 3T Guides, News, & Discussion] DarkSJ1998:
Alright thanks! :)

Let's see if anyone tries it out [emoji14]

I'm not in the urge of risking getting my /data wiped as of now ;)
[OnePlus 3T Guides, News, & Discussion] a0879:
View attachment 4744868thanks [MENTION=7874870]Xennet[/MENTION] ...:good::)

I followed all the steps from procedure 1 ( PROCEDURE 1: This is applicable only to people who have their data currently NOT ENCRYPTED AND KEEP IT DECRYPTED ) and for everyone out there who are confused or fear of loosing data , I successfully booted OOS Pie beta/community build without loosing any of my data/internal storage (everything regarding data is intact).
[OnePlus 3T Guides, News, & Discussion] Yudh:
Don't try because if your data is encrypted and you follow the old steps with pie files for just not triggering dm-verity

Twrp cannot decrypt the data if you reboot after flashing oos community beta and then immediately patched boot image for pie

Luckily i saved myself (from loosing data) by not booting into system and again dirty flashing stable oreo rom using the guide for oreo and patched oreo boot image.

I had to dirty flash OREO Rom patched boot image and magisk all using OTG since i couldn't access data partition.
[OnePlus 3T Guides, News, & Discussion] Xennet:
Did u have your bootloader unlocked and on what OOS were u on, before u upgraded...
[OnePlus 3T Guides, News, & Discussion] Xennet:
That's in line....

Hmmmmmm it's a Twrp problem...the problem is with decryption of pie data by twrp...as stated earlier by [MENTION=7440207]a0879[/MENTION], the patched boot image works perfectly with already decrypted data partitions without losing data...

But [MENTION=7150737]Yudh[/MENTION], the patched boot image did it's work by not letting twrp being overwritten by the stock recovery or else you would have been in trouble...
[OnePlus 3T Guides, News, & Discussion] a0879:
Yes, my bootloader is unlocked from time immemorial and i was on havoc 2.4, twrp 3.2.3-10, magisk v18.1 just before flashing oos pie beta today.

Earlier i tried the leaked version and the one3tos also a few days back which ultimately wiped whole of my data/internal (though i backed it on pc) and replaced it with the stock recovery, i was unable to do anything other than just using it as it was but then also my bootloader was unlocked.

So i was searching for how to use pie by remaining non encrypted and not formatting internal storage and saving then Finally after going through your post i decided to follow each and every step as told, and "B A N G" !!:) , it worked as told by you !

thanks again..:good:
