Good signal, recognizing LTE+ data speed, but no service? Anyone else have this problem? I'm not sure if it's a software or hardware issue.....
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] CamoGeko:
Probably neither, just your network not supporting LTE+?

I get data on everything.

Neg. I've had it go 60+ before. I'm wondering if it's just being picky on which cell tower it likes.:silly:

Honestly I think son of these Essential radios are botched. I get pretty weak signal in places where it should be stronger.

Does voice assistant work? When I tried to load it just says "please wait" and gets stuck there.

It works but you have to use the home button or the pill to activate it by a long pres.

Google Now voice match is broken on all custom ROMs on our mata as far as I know.

TWRP full screen work around:​

For those of us that are annoyed with the right side of the screen being cut off in TWRP I found a work around. Just switch to the slot opposite your system, and reboot back to recovery.

1. Boot into TWRP

2. Reboot menu

3. If slot says A switch to B, If it says B switch to A.

4. Hit the recovery button

5. Profit :cool:

Note: I'm not 100% but it might have to do with Magisk Manager since it only installs to the system slot.

Does this rom will have this function?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] bylee:
Hi everyone,

I've flashed phones before, going all the way back to a Samsung Omnia on Windows Mobile and up to a Moto G5plus, but this is my first time flashing an a/b phone, and I'm stymied...

If I fastboot flash the twrp img to slot A and then use twrp to flash aicp and reboot, it works. My understanding is this automatically flashes aicp to slot B and boots it. However, with this approach, I don't have twrp on slot B and can't go back and flash magisk. If I start twrp on slot A, magisk insists on flashing to slot A and won't flash to slot B. I realize now you're supposed to use the below approach, but just saying I tried it and got aicp working so my fastboot/adb/cable all seem to be good. Whew!

If I fastboot flash twrp to slot A and then use twrp to put both the aicp and twrp on slot B at the same time, then slot B doesn't boot anymore to either twrp or aicp. I can use fastboot to set slot A active and return to twrp, but slot B is dead in the water and just goes straight to fastboot.

The only part of the instructions I didn't follow is the f2fs conversion. I decided to stay with ext4 for now just because it's more familiar. Is that the problem? What am I missing?

Thanks!

Ben

I have it running and don't see the essential notch settings.

If I search "notch" in settings, there's a "hide notch" option, but I tried toggling it and don't see a difference?

Ben
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] _tru_:
I stayed with ext4 too. Here's the process.

1. Go here and download TWRP installer, and move it to internal storage

2. Boot to recovery if you can. Go to and Install the TWRP installer you downloaded.

If you can't boot to recovery

1. reboot fastboot

2. switch to the slot with TWRP already installed.

3. Reboot into recovery

5. Go to install, and install the TWRP installer.

The TWRP installer automatically installs to both slots.

Also if you want to be lazy, you can install Magisk right after AICP by adding it to the install zip queue.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] bylee:
Really appreciate the reply.

Following the above, I went back into the twrp recovery on slot A and flashed the freshly downloaded copy of the twrp zip. But when I reboot into slot B, it gets stuck in the bootloader again. I can't boot recovery or system on slot B. :(

One curious thing is I just went into fastboot and tried to flash the twrp img file to slot B, thinking I would try reversing the process, loading twrp onto B and flashing aicp onto A. But it didn't work!??? It still gets stuck in the bootloader.

Any idea what's wrong with slot B? I went back into fastboot to make sure slot B is correctly unlocked, and it shows as unlocked. Is slot B corrupt in some way?

Thanks!

Ben

Edit:

I don't get this. I just tried again to install twrp onto slot B with fastboot, the exact same way I put twrp on slot A, and it's still not working. Does that make sense to anyone?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] _tru_:
Try this:

1. Boot to fastboot

2. fastboot getvar current-slot (make a note of the current slot)

3. fastboot set_active other

4. fastboot flash boot (your recovery img)

5. fastboot set_active other

6. fastboot flash boot (your recovery img)

7. Reboot recovery

8. Install Rom

9. Run TWRP installer zip

10. Run Magisk

There's also a prepatched twrp-magisk.img

Let us know how it goes.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] bylee:
Thanks for taking the time to write up the steps, it's much appreciated!

For whatever reason, my phone's slot B still craps the bed every time I flash the twrp image. So I've reset the table and flashed back to stock Feb 2020 which appears to have redone all of the partitions. I'll try flashing with your step by step next but have to pause for a couple days. I'll be back! :)

Ben

PS. For those contemplating AICP, my issues with twrp aside, it's very nice!
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] _tru_:
Ok. I understand now. You're on the Feb 2020 build. What I wrote was what I did for mine, but I'm still on the Jan 2020 build. I should've paid closer attn... ??*♂️??*♂️

It works well but chrome crashes.(I tried to reinstall it and canary/beta/dev, but none works)

I also updated Android System webview, it works well but chrome doesn't.

And I want a round corner in notification.....Can anyone tell me how?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] bylee:
I didn't specify I was on the Feb stock before, so my bad. For anyone seeing similar problems, this issue with twrp is widespread along those on the Feb build. Some are dropping back to the Jan build to get twrp working. I may do the same so I can then flash AICP! :)

battery problems pt 2

No idea what's going on. Battery now shutting down randomly. I was partially able to replicate it. I was playing Final Fantasy XV Pocket Edition. The game was supposed to download 1.78GB of data, so I set the display to turn off after 10 min then let it be. About 30 min later I came back and of course the screen was off. So I turned it on and loaded the game again. Right after the game loaded it shut down. Dead battery. So I plugged it in and rebooted. It booted and had around 26% battery left.

I haven't used my phone in a few hours, but whenever I load the game it shuts down as soon as the game fully loads. Check the screenshots. You'll see what I mean. Oddly enough plugging it in, letting it charge for a minute or 2 as I play the game and I can unplug the phone and the battery will discharge as it usually does.

Interestingly enough, if I don't load the game, the phone doesn't shut off. Weird.....:confused::confused::confused:
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] gavinfernandes2012:
Could you check if this happens with the battery full? Also could you install kernel adiutor and check what the mV supply is from the battery in the battery section?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] CamoGeko:
TWRP doesn't work with the Feb firmware. That's why everyone is staying on Jan for custom ROMs.

I'd you flash Feb Novendor while on Custom ROM + TWRP you'll send your PH1 into a bootloop. If that happens just download the Jan Novendor and flash.

Looks like you're right. If you look at my ? info you can see on the left side where my phone was charged to 100% then died at +/-80%. It was then "recharged" to 70ish% but has yet to shut down. *knocks on wood*

Overheated ? maybe ? :confused:

K.A. mV attached
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] feligoni:
Our phone doesn't react well to neither hot or cold temperatures. It just shuts down.

Also keep in mind the battery might be starting to die.

[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] dragynbane222:
Actually, not all roms suffer from this, only ones using Kuran's trees, Anay on Telegram fixed that issue with his trees, and him being a maintainer for PA, Carbon and Statix, those don't have the issue described. I can give you links to his trees if you want, either reply here, or shoot me a message either here or on Telegram.

[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] gavinfernandes2012:
Ahh mine is at 4197 mV, 3400mV seems very suspicious, I'll check to see what mV my battery reaches at 17% but I don't think a drop of nearly 1V should be happening.

Anyways I'll reply back when I hit 17%, currently at 100. Also high temps and maybe even low temps decrease the battery voltage AFAIK, so that might cause system instability/a power cut from the supply unit in our phones.

Edit: Also, a greater current draw, which happens when your processor is working harder if I'm not wrong, will also cause a drop in voltage for batteries. Now I don't know if this is significant enough to cause problems, but it might.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] rignfool:
4.197 is almost fully charged...

3400 is critical shutoff...

When taxing the system... And going for max processor speed while at low battery....with the age your battery is... It's.gonna shut off...

The math your processor does is.not.reliable below 3400 mv
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] gavinfernandes2012:
Mhmm yeah, by greater current draw I meant what you mean by taxing the system. Also am familiar with said unreliable math, used to undervolt my laptop before the pludervolt fix came and spoiled my fun.

Didn't know 3400 was critical shutoff for us though? A user on reddit was reporting 1700mV, but I doubt the accuracy of the report because I don't think our phones can operate as such low voltages at all.

Netflix bug:

Don't know if other users have reported this, but it looks like Netflix isn't playing nicely with AICP. You can watch a movie full screen from beginning to end, however try to access the notification bar, flip landscape modes (so you can get that pesky charging cord out of the way), or occasionally even if you press the home button you won't be able to leave Netflix. Only thing available is a forced restart.

Anyone else having problems with play store? This morning I randomly couldn't add accounts or update...

Works fine on the interwebs, but not on my phone. I'm going to see if they're updates on the interwebs play store
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] nijohnson:
With regards to the In Call Volume, if you run the volume up to halfway, then back down during a call, the volume adjusts. What I've done is create a profile in Tasker that takes the volume up to halfway then back down to 1 when the phone is Off-Hook. Works fine.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] dragynbane222:
as to the Netflix thing, it's something caused by vendors that aren't the vendor overlay which Anay Wadhera implemented in several of his roms (Static and Carbon are the ones that come to mind), anything else that isn't stock had those crashing issues with several apps (CBS, Netflix, strangely enough Duo and Facebook Messenger video calls also experience the issue)

This is the clear example of why many developers abandon the development of Roms. They do this as a hobby, they keep many devices alive and the least we users can do is be grateful by reporting problems properly (logs) and, if possible, donating economically. If you don't know how to take logs or how to show a little respect, don't install roms or root.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Legitsu:
how about you do your research before going and slapping that built-it button

because whatsapp is unaffected(and afaik has never been affected) its a hal problem and its more then just this rom is a problem with any rom using these particular trees and certain other roms with the problem commits from CAF.

don't ask me what they are because nobody at caf bothers to properly document there commit when merging,hell nobody documented the specific fixes to the audio hal, when they where committed 3 months ago,so they keep getting lost

the audio hal problems and Bluetooth crashes (which I didn't stick around long enough to see if that was still broken) have been known issues for at least 6 months

I will say I'm having one mildly annoying issue. Apps keep getting closed, some while they're playing audio in the background (GPM, Amazon Music, Ambio) as if the device is running out of ram.
