I think I see the issue. It seems it is more of a space reporting error. A: it is odd system is only 1.1 GB. Attached is from LOS on a different phone. Most of the apps in your image don't show up for me because your space reporting is showing the files as apps instead of normal system stuff.
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] widjkf832uj3:
same issue here. the numbers don't even add up what is this bull****.

probably gonna return the phone. the breakdown's even more wack
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] nickmv:
You guys sure about that? I think it's telling you how much space each app is consuming for its data storage, NOT how much room the app itself (APK) occupies.

Apps require storage space beyond the app itself.
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] Uzephi:
Yes, seems it is reporting something. The term storage in the screenshot implies what you state. Honestly, the system partiton is usually 16Gb or larger, so system apps "using 15Gb" could just be the remainder of the /system partiton. Android has to report that data as not user accessible. 1Gb and 15 GB does equal the system partition size of most P smart phones. I haven't bought my 3a yet, but will have one in a month to verify partitions.
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] GuestK00262:
It seems either way it is still an error as it should report that figure in system amd not apps.
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] nickmv:
Alright so this is interesting -- I just checked out my /system size in Root Explorer, and it's currently at 3.06GB.

Other Apps current size in settings? 18GB. That's 3GB over the 15 everyone sees. So the question is, where the heck is the 15GB coming from?

Is there a way to effectively hide the navigation bar on the Pixel 3a so that you are in immersive mode? I've tried the Tiles app but I found that it causes issues with the keyboard and I also noticed that it causes active edge to not work consistently.

If you're rooted you could use this. Or if you root and have Magisk, you can install GravityBox and that has it too.

not working well across all applications. Microsoft OneNote is an example. when you go into a particular note to add text the keyboard opens and then shuts down right away.

Hey guys, I really need some help here. I've posted this question in the original Kitchen forum , and on the individual ROM forums over at PPCgeeks, but there so crowded now that no ones helped. But I know one of you geniuses can answer this with no problem. So here goes.

I've tried to use PPCgeeks Vogue Kitchen for the past week. I've tried three different, I guess there the ROM selections, from three different people, plus the one that's with the kitchen. I've run the updater every time I start it up, so I know it's not that.

As soon as it loads up, I pick which ROM selection txt file I want to use for my selections. Then I go thru and pick the stuff I want on my ROM. When done, I click on the icon in the toolbar that says "BUILD ROM". It brings up another window that says it's scanning the files and creating a bunch of things. This all works just fine.

When It gets to the end, it pops up a error message and says that it cant find a file. Then it goes back to the Kitchen part. Thats as far as I can get. I have no clue what the file is, or where to get it or make it. The file it says is missing is located in ,

C drive/ Document and Settings/ "my user name"/ Application Data/ hIq INC

It wont let me upload the ROM straight from the Kitchen to the phone either. I guess that the ROM has to be built first huh? But anyway, Someone please help me here. Tell me what I'm missing or doing wrong. I may be leaving out a step, but if so I dont know. PLEASE guys , someone, anyone, help me out here.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] bp328i:
These are just the steps I took and not my files and all credit goes to everyone except me.

You need ADB installed on your PC, this guide is assuming you have ADB up and running and know how to flash TWRP or other things to other phones. I don't have time to list all that.

You take full responsibility if something goes wrong.

I used a USB OTG because of TWRP decryption issues.

To start you need to be Sim unlocked from T-Mobile and received your unlock token from OnePlus, once that's done unlock your bootloader.

The files you will need are:

9.5.3 OTA full zip found here: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=79545506&postcount=3

TWRP found here, I did not end up using the installer: https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-7-pro/development/recovery-unofficial-twrp-recovery-t3931322 I always rename it to twrp.img so it's easier/shorter to type in cdm later.

Transfer the 9.5.3 OTA zip to your USB OTG

Once your bootloader is unlocked you will need to boot the OS and enable developer options and USB debubbing,

From command prompt (CMD) on your PC type "adb reboot bootloader"

Once the bootloader loadds type "fastboot getvar current-slot" this will tell you which slot is currently active.

Then change to the inactive slot by typing "fastboot --set-active=a or b" so if your active slot was a then it would look like this "fastboot --set-active=b"

Now type either "fastboot flash boot_a twrp.img" or "fastboot flash boot_b twrp.img" based on which your inactive slot is. Thanks [MENTION=4668255]twinnfamous[/MENTION]

Once done TWRP should boot. Once in TWRP unplug from your PC and plug in your USB OTA swipe to allow modifications

Select install

Select storage from bottom

Select USB

Select the 9.5.3 OTA file you saved on your USB OTG, let it run (takes a few minutes) once done DO NOT reboot.

I did have a few errors but it was fine for me

Select the home button, once in the TWRP home screen select reboot and switch slots then back to TWRP home screen.

Select install

Select storage from bottom

Select USB

Select the 9.5.3 OTA file you saved on your USB OTG, let it run (takes a few minutes)

I did have a few errors but it was fine for me

Now you have 9.5.3 installed on both slots, reboot

At this point my phone boot looped back to stock recovery (TWRP was replaced, expected) where I selected English - Wipe data and cache - Erase everything (Music, pics, etc) once done my phone booted into International 9.5.3 OOS.

Again I take no credit for this I'm only posting the steps I took.

Thanks and credit goes to:

[MENTION=4668255]twinnfamous[/MENTION] for posting the steps he used and what I followed and this is based on.

[MENTION=4712355]mauronofrio[/MENTION] for the TWRP I used

What is the reason for flashing it to both slots? Does TWRP need to be installed or is it just used for initial install and then OnePlus's recovery will be used?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SmileBigNow:
I'll just sit here and wait till the MSM Tool comes out!
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Bradl79:
it appears he just used it for booting, TWRP is not mandatory for an OS to operate, its just an option. He is flashing to both slots b/c if you get updates u won't get the T-MO update U will get the Global Updates. So when the update comes out it is going to install on the inactive slot so it will overwrite the Global instead of the T-Mo which could cause problems. So overall u want Global on both Slots.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] UniX1rm:
So something weird when I was trying yesterday and not sure if someone came across that.

After I flashed oos rooted and was working just fine, while I was messing with substratum and magisk, the phone would boot, lose TMobile signal, and show the two empty simcards and won't get data.

I am finally back on 9.5.3 running just fine rooted but not sure what that has happened.

If you are coming from T-Mobile software and don't flash to both slots you will end up in Qualcomm crash dump error. And not be able to boot
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] bp328i:
When updates come out there is no waiting for them. You download from the OnePlus site and do a local upgrade.

Also the ROMs that are based on Magisk modules don't work on T-Mobile software.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Beachbum2049:
What did you do to get back? I'm on international by another method and have this issue.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] UniX1rm:
I tried a bunch of things, my highlight was the following

flashed twrp on slot A and B using "fastboot flash boot twrp.img"

Then downloaded the oxygen os OS 9.5.3GM21AA

https://support.oneplus.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/4312

Flashed that via twrp and my OTG usb. Regardless of decryption and data, all good.

Then, went to the oxygen os recovery "it flashes itself after you flash the oxygen os firmware instead of twrp" and erased everything and started fresh.

ALSO I am on this one now and it is working fine, and flashed via fastboot. Make sure you know your slots or pay attention to what happens.

" 9.5.4-GM21AA-OnePlus7ProOxygen_21.O.08_OTA_008_all_1905230032_1ef7fd0dc3-FASTBOOT.zip"

https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=294300

to find out which slot you're in

fastboot getvar current-slot

to change slots

fastboot --set-active=a

or

fastboot --set-active=b

then run to verify.

fastboot getvar current-slot

Does TWRP stay installed or does it go back to the OnePlus recovery after both slots are flashed
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] tech_head:
Yes.

You can only flash the active slot.

You need to have twrp installed on both slots.

You want both slots to be on the same OS.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] UniX1rm:
If you flash OOS via twrp, then you get OOS recovery, you need to fastboot flash boot twrp.img on both slots, then it sticks. I am using the decrypted version.

You can relock the bootloader as long as everything is stock. No issues, also dual sims work on the T-Mobile variant, but I think it shares the same IMEI so you not sure if you would be able to use two sims from the same carrier.

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] gimpy1:
I am a rooted Verizon vs996 user (also use the us998 twrp rom as well (currently on vs996). My wife and I are going for a 2-3 week cruise next week around the British Isles. I am wondering how people use their Verizon LG v30 overseas so as not to incur huge phone/data minutes and bills?

A couple of suggestions are to buy a pre paid sim card once we have arrived or I also know that Verizon offers different plans, but they seem quite expensive ($10.00 per day per phone as an example?). Not sure of the pricing on pre paid sim card. Other ideas? (remembering we each have a phone +my wife's new apple iPad).

Or plan is not to use the phone for a lot of calls or emails, but to be able to periodically check emails and texts from family mostly and I have to be able to surf the internet (read xda[emoji3]).

I have the rooted LG v30 and my wife has an iPhone.

Any suggestions, recommendations or advice?

Thx

As I recall, VZ offers international roaming, and IIRC it wasn't that badly priced, so you may want to look into that: https://www.verizonwireless.com/solutions-and-services/international-travel/

Of course, local SIM-carding is certainly going to be lower cost, if you can figure it out. I think it just involves plugging in a local SIM and off you go? But I'm not sure as I've never done it.

When we went to Jamaica, I simply disconnected the cell radio, and relied on wifi for everything. That worked fine for us (I try to remain disconnected on vacation anyway)... and if I had to make a call, I used Wifi and Google Hangouts Dialer to make the call at no cost. Sounds like this may work for you, overall, since you're only planning to use email/text anyway. Note, I used Hangouts for texting as well, since it worked on Wifi too. I believe the new Google Messages will do that now, as well, so you may be able to just use that (makes it easier than explaining to people why you have two phone numbers).
