Could you please tell me how to revert to TWRP?

Thank you.

For info I updated my Swift to 17.1 without problems. After selecting the recommended Wipe in TWRP, I flashed the latest ROM and OpenGapps Pico (all other versions too large to fit the available space) and rebooted. The phone booted up with my previous desktop settings intack, marvellous, and time saving. To get root I copied the latest Magisk (v20.4) zip and the MagiskManager-v7.5.1.apk to the phones sdcard. I then flashed Magisk.zip, rebooted and installed Magisk manager. This all worked well giving root and enabling me to use the hide option.
[Wileyfox Swift] 115ek:
Installing TWRP is quite easy: enter fastboot mode and

fastboot flash recovery YOUR_TWRP.img

You can enter fastboot via different ways:

from Lineage via advanced restart (developer options): choose bootloader

from recovery: choose advanced -> reboot to bootloader

from powered off device -> connect USB while holding volume UP

from powered off device -> power on while holding volume UP

EDIT: And yes, gapps pico is the only fitting package. Actually this was all explained in the LOS 17 thread. But it disappeared and until now xda wasn't able to bring it back.

Perhaps I should start a new one to not spam this one...
[Wileyfox Swift] oliverjames:
Thank you for your speedy reply.

On the subject of Gapps I'd abandon this completely if I didn't use Google services so heavily. It imposes such a big resource hit. I've an original HTC Desire which again becomes a very useable device without Gapps, F-Droid gives all the functionality needed. Must explore that more on a more powerful machine, using Firefox as the Google portal.

A question, I had twrp-3.1.1-0-crackling installed and that worked fine. Do you know if the latest twrp-3.3.1-0-crackling version is also compatible with the Swift?

Thank you.
[Wileyfox Swift] 115ek:
Omitting gapps indeed increases performance ;)

If F-Droid isn't sufficient you can also install Aurora (directly from F-Droid) to get access to apps from the playstore. In most cases the apps will work. However, some rely on the google playservices framework and won't start at all.

Well, crackling is Swift. I don't see any reason why it shouldn't work. But I think some users reported the /data decryption is broken (Just as a reminder...)
[Wileyfox Swift] FtCat:
Alternately with a rooted device you can use the official TWRP app, select TWRP FLASH.

If you already have the crackling TWRP image stored on your phone, choose Select file to flash and browse to the file select it and hit FLASH TO RECOVERY.

To download the image hit Select A Device, search for Wileyfox Swift and select the image you want, confirm the download and proceed from there.
[Wileyfox Swift] oliverjames:
Question re. Install 17.1 from recovery

The site https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/crackling/install states:

Installing LineageOS from recovery

Download the LineageOS installation package that you would like to install or build the package yourself.

Optionally, download additional application packages such as Google Apps (use the arm64 architecture).

If you are not in recovery, reboot into recovery:

With the device powered off, hold Volume Down + Power.

Now tap Factory Reset, then Format data / factory reset and continue with the formatting process. This will remove encryption and delete all files stored in the internal storage, as well as format your cache partition (if you have one).

Return to the main menu.

Sideload the LineageOS .zip package:

On the device, select “Apply Update”, then “Apply from ADB” to begin sideload.

On the host machine, sideload the package using: adb sideload filename.zip

My question is why the insistence on sideload?

I did this install by copying the ROM and OpenGapps to the sdcard. I then booted to recovery (TWRP), didn't wipe anything and used the "Install" button from the (twrp) recovery package. This saved a lot of time by conserving my desktop and other settings and installed packages. Having rebooted and checked that the update to Android 10 I then rebooted to recovery and installed Magisk to get root.

---------- Post added at 09:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:40 AM ----------

Can anyone point me to a reference document describing the function and interrelation between the Android bootloader, recovery, and OS?

I assume that these are analogous to the Grub2, Clonezilla imaging tool and OS, from the Linux systems that I work with?
[Wileyfox Swift] quho:
I've upgraded to 17.1 using TWRP sideload. After the first boot it froze in the "finishing installation" phase and then entered a boot loop. But after a power cycle it booted fine and seems to work nicely. Not sure what went wrong there. TWRP can still decrypt the data partition.

The issue with screen freezing that I reported here few weeks ago is fixed. That's great. Another issue I had in 16 was with something related to GPS eating battery even when not used, which only reboot could fix. I'm curious to see if that was fixed in 17.1 as well.

I just miss the addonsu package. I preferred it over Magisk.
[Wileyfox Swift] maxic_g:
Didn't know that and revert back OranfeFox recovery just flashing zip file in Lineage recovery.
[Wileyfox Swift] didyou:
Hello there. I am currently using the latest version of LOS 17.1. There is no problem throughout the system, but when I try to use one application, the phone resets itself. While opening the application, it stays on the white screen and the phone is reset. Application;

Has anyone ever tried to integrate qti-telephony-common into LOS 15/16 builds? (/cc @115ek)

PRODUCT_PACKAGES += qti-telephony-common
PRODUCT_BOOT_JARS += telephony-ext

Motivation: Test manual SIM provisioning feature (enable/disable SIM cards in settings) – see this screenshot from another device/user.

So far it successfully builds and I'm able to disable one card. But I'm unable to fully enable the card again. It's enabled at the GUI, no errors visible, but it's offline (empty triangle icon) and there's no mobile network connection established. The SIM card remains offline until device gets rebooted.

hey folks everyone loves batti i was wondering if it was possible to make an app similar to that with signal strength..it could still fit with batti if you could change size....any ideas?? sorry for english i am from texas

Brievly tested first build and not very good performance, i've not tested all things cause was laggy.

HUGE THANKS to compile android 9 ;D

I have testes android 9 on multiple devices like galaxy tab a, redmi 5 plus, one plus 5t and elderdriver's xposed work great but not on wileyfox storm. Someone can telle me why?

When i reboot with xposed installed it make a blackscreen but phone is booted.
[Wileyfox Storm] ghertas:
did you Wipe and Format Data ?

Installing LineageOS from recovery

Wipe

Now tap Format Data and continue with the formatting process. This will remove encryption as well as delete all files stored on the internal storage.

Return to the previous menu and tap Advanced Wipe.

Select the Cache and System partitions to be wiped and then Swipe to Wipe.

[Wileyfox Storm] vel_tins:
For some reasons, the /system partition is resized from ~2.5GB to ~1.5GB after install, so not even the nano-gapps fit (insufficient space).

The /system partition can be "resized" back to 2.5GB via TWRP (you have to do it twice(!) to see the result), but I think, this shouldn't be hard to fix... ;)
[Wileyfox Storm] RastHacker:
Magisk say my data is not encrypted, i really need to format data?
[Wileyfox Storm] vel_tins:
After updating to "lineage-16.0-20190513-nightly-kipper", the /system partition was against decreased to ~ 1.5GB and had to be increased to 2.5GB from TWRP!

nothing

I can't find a refresh button to refresh the cast page to find my tv

i think the cast is not in the lineage rom package (kipper)
[Wileyfox Storm] RastHacker:
You're tv created an other network named by your tv, it's look like "Bravia-XXXX" for sony and other for other brands. Connect to this network and now you can cast
[Wileyfox Storm] jrior001:
Wifi-direct casting does not work at all in 16.0 for most legacy devices. You can still cast to Chromecast devices but that's about it. Unfortunately I don't see this getting fixed at all as the back end for WFD changed quite a bit in P and only newer devices (with at least stock O blobs) have been able to get this working.
[Wileyfox Storm] hjr06:
Hi,

have the same problem on my Wileyfox Storm (arm64-v8a) with Pie (OS only - no other apps installed jet) I installed.

I have testet every up to now available pie version for Storm.

Magsik v19.1 with Magisk Manager v7.1.2 (also tried v18.1 and v7.1.1)

Riru core 18 (also tried v10, v11, 15, 16)

EDXposed v4.1.2 (also tried v3.1.2, v3.1.7 and v2.9.6)

EdXposedInstaller_v2.2.4 (also tried some other Versions)

I also tried different Lineage Pie versions.

The Problem: immediatly after the boot is finished the ui becomes black and freezes completly.

For a second I could see the message Smartphone ist starting, but then it becomes black screen.

About very 5 seconds the screen flashes very short the status bar and becomes black again - seems to be a loop.

one Time, after wiping all partitions and installing lineage from scratch Xposed seems to be running fine,

but after the first boot I have the same problem.

In all cases - after removing EDXposed via TWRP Pie works fine again, but I need Xposed.

Please anybody can help?

Thanks
[Wileyfox Storm] RastHacker:
There is news, i finally booted with xposed 4.x elderdriver version sandhook, edxposed manager say it's working and active but any modules seems to work, they say 'module not active' even if it is. :/ and phone is laggy. (sorry for my english)

This doesn't work for me. I'm on TWRP 3.2.1.0 and whenever I let /system be resized, nothing changes.

The image has been installed by ADB Sideload. I also have rebooted the device to recovery multiple times, but the resize-operation doesn't show any results.

[Samsung Galaxy Fold Guides, News, & Discussion] mastibeta:
What color combo/carrier did you order and what are you most excited about for this phone?

I personally preordered in the martian green with the silver spine. I placed the order shortly after pre-sale went live, while watching GoT. I can't wait to get my hands on new tech, i have been very impressed with my s10+ and hope to have a better experience with the fold.
[Samsung Galaxy Fold Guides, News, & Discussion] sharingan5791:
Sweet. What's the estimated ship date for you?
[Samsung Galaxy Fold Guides, News, & Discussion] mastibeta:
By May 1st, but imagine it will come in by the 26th. Looks like they sold 4500 each of att and tmobile.
[Samsung Galaxy Fold Guides, News, & Discussion] BarryH_GEG:
I got Martian Green with the gold spine. I figure a futuristic phone would look cool in a funky color. I specifically wanted the gold spine and it's only available with blue and green. The carriers are only selling black and silver with a grey and silver spine so I figure those will be the most common combinations. CNET just posted 70 hands-on pics and a lot of them are green. I don't regret my choice..
[Samsung Galaxy Fold Guides, News, & Discussion] sharingan5791:
Really that's surprising considering people were making a huge deal about the price and crease issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Fold Guides, News, & Discussion] edgarzin:
what about unlock status? i want to buy one, but which is unlocked?
[Samsung Galaxy Fold Guides, News, & Discussion] mastibeta:
Gotta pay to play....and the crease is likely a result of first gen tech, I'm sure it will improve. That said, most reviewers are saying it fades out of sight as you continue to use it...much like a notch.
[Samsung Galaxy Fold Guides, News, & Discussion] sharingan5791:
Seems like there was more demand than everyone expected. I just so happen to check my email on a whim and saw the Pre-orders now open link. It was an hour after they sent them out too. Once I saw that some colors were already gone I figured they were selling fast. Didn't expects those numbers though

---------- Post added at 04:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:55 PM ----------

Right now its only AT&T and Tmobile. It's possible they will release the phone to other carriers later on with the 5g variant. They still haven't said much about that model
[Samsung Galaxy Fold Guides, News, & Discussion] rockstar95:
I just pre-ordered the T-Mobile version. I'm planning on buying a pre-paid T-Mobile SIM, load it up with $100 worth of minutes/data, and then request an official unlock code from T-Mobile, as per their unlocking policy. Then I'll test out my Verizon SIM. Verizon is shutting down it's CDMA network at the end of the year, so as long as the Fold can handle LTE bands 2/4/5/13/66, it should hopefully be able to work on Verizon. If it ends up not working, I guess I'll be getting a refund from Samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy Fold Guides, News, & Discussion] cheapshot789:
How are you going to get a refund if you would have used it for a while
[Samsung Galaxy Fold Guides, News, & Discussion] rockstar95:
You can get a refund from Samsung if the device is returned to them within 15 days, as long as it's in like-new condition. https://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/phones/standard-device-trial-policy/

But if for some reason they won't accept the return, I'll just sell it on eBay.
[Samsung Galaxy Fold Guides, News, & Discussion] burrzoo:
I also ordered a Martian Green with a Gold Hinge. I know that there will be many shortcomings with the Fold but I just couldn't resist. I do love being an early adopter and with that being said if I am totally dissatisfied with the Fold, I'll return it and just use my Note 9 until the N10 comes out. I think that I'm going to really like this phone and I'm so anxious to get it and hopefully won't want to return it.

On another note, when I ordered on Samsung.com, I took screenshots of each page as I ordered. Only the final confirmation page **did not** state the Martian Green color, only the gold hinge color. Also, my confirmation emails didn't show the Martian green color either (and the Shop Samsung app doesn't).

Did anyone else have this same experience? I chatted with two different Samsung Agents (one today, one yesterday) and they were worthless. Coldn't find any information. The one tonight said to wait until they are in stock to verify. WTH?!?
[Samsung Galaxy Fold Guides, News, & Discussion] neovalkyr:
Damn I'm on T-Mobile and was only able to choose between silver and black. it sucks i wasn't able to choose the Samsung exclusive colors.

ended up getting the silver would have preferred the blue though with gold hinge
[Samsung Galaxy Fold Guides, News, & Discussion] GallardosEggrollShop:
AT&T here, I was apprehensive about the phone but after watching the hands-on videos, it made me really want one. By then it was too late and Samsung.com was already out of pre-orders. Like you, I settled for the silver but really wanted the blue with gold hinge. My estimated delivery is the 24th, so we'll see how true that is. Super excited though, even with it's shortcomings I'm just ready for something super different. I remember when the Galaxy Note originally came out and people were going crazy at the size of it. I can only imagine the reactions when I pull the Fold out hahaha.
[Samsung Galaxy Fold Guides, News, & Discussion] neovalkyr:
that's weird because during ordering if i choose the At&t version I was only able to select the blue/green colors but only silver/black with T-mobile.

and you say they were out of pre-orders but you were still able to get one?

Yah I also cannot wait to see the expressions on peoples faces, you will definitely get some looks lol
[Samsung Galaxy Fold Guides, News, & Discussion] GallardosEggrollShop:
Oopps, sorry I didn't specify. Samsung.com pre-orders were already gone, I had to go on AT&T's site to pre-order instead. It looks like the pre-orders are still up for them with Silver and Black being the only colors.
[Samsung Galaxy Fold Guides, News, & Discussion] neovalkyr:
Ah I see, you're lucky mine is scheduled to ship by May 1st.
[Samsung Galaxy Fold Guides, News, & Discussion] sharingan5791:
Yeah he should be able to return it within 15 days

---------- Post added at 04:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:33 AM ----------

Yeah i believe evryones is like this who ordered from Samsung . On mine it just shows hinge color as well. Ive even seen screenshots of others preorder and its the same. So no need to freak :good:;)
