[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] ARey1212:
First off shoutouts to all the devs here who have worked hard on their own or preferred custom roms.

Just curious to know why no one hasnt or no longer interested in having ParanoidAndroid on the 7T?

I reached out to them myself as they released their Quartz 5 and preparing for Android 11 and was surprised they not only responded back, but their response itself.

I appreciate any insight from any devs and before I get the sarcastic "well why don't you do it"... I wish I was as talented and awesome as you guys with a speck of knowledge like yall.

Thanks everyone
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] brisseau:
I agree, it's a shame that Paranoid Android isn't able to get any developers or moderators to help port it over. PA is, next to stock Oxygen OS, my favorite ROM.

It doesn't help that the 7T partition system makes it difficult to even get an "official" TWP installed (there is an unofficial version you can install but from what I've read, there are still a few minor issues with it). If an official TWRP happened, you'd likely see much more development for the 7T. Mad props to mauronofrio for all of the work he's done for the 7T. His All-in-one tool is awesome.
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] a g bell:
Yes indeed but it's not the Android 10 partition system on the 7t which is causing the issue. It's the fact that OnePlus won't fix the broken decryption on the 7t. Oneplus need to fix the issue then twrp will come. But they don't seem to be interested in supporting devices just churning out new ones.

Hey,

Since soli radar is gone, anyone know if the face unlock feature will still be there? Same for the screen on functionality (doesn't turn the screen off if you still look at it).

pre-ordered, upgrading from the pixel 2 xl.

i hope the fingerprint sensor is better on the 5, found it can be a bit flaky at times on the 2 xl.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] Morgrain:
It is a shame really. Fingerprint sucks when you have gloves on or sweaty fingers, plus cuts on your hand make your life miserable. Still in corona times I miss fingerprint. We should get both. Noone should need to decide.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] jimv1983:
Really? How often do you have issues? The fingerprint sensor on my Pixel 2 XL. I can't say that it's never missed but it's at least 95% reliable.

I think bring back the fingerprint sensor is my favorite thing about the Pixel 5. Having gloves on or having wet/sweaty fingers certainly can be a problem but I'm almost never in those situations. Especially the gloves part. I do however wear hats and sunglasses and spend time out in direct sunlight and in those situations the face unlock of the Pixel 4 was terrible. Having a mask on because of the pandemic would make it even worse.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] deadite66:
hard to say how often it's random but i haven't had a problem since android 11, maybe they fixed it or maybe made it less secure.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] gwils:
Where can i get a good deal on purchasing a replacement screen for the L29.

What's wrong with it - The screen is black, it is not frozen or bricked, because i hear notification sounds, ringing and the phone vibrates, just can't do anything. I tried everything there is try but to no avail.

Also, do you think I'll need a screen only or digitizer also?
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] ptr21:
I have replaced several Xiaomi and Huawei screens (not Mate 20x). You have to replace SCREEN. Replacing only digitizer needs special equipment and not every phone service is qualified enough.

I'm actually trying this image, and I think it's pretty good :)

But, I cannot find anyway to update Havoc in the future (no update rom found)

Is it impossible to update in the future without reflashing it everytime ?

[Moto Z2 Play  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] marcost22:
As we are not official Havoc (notice the Unnoficial tag) we cannot use the OTA system that Havoc has in place, so the only option is reflashing everytime

And... nope! Last version (20201207) didn't change a thing - still setting app crashes... This rom is SO close to perfection. This above setting app issue, and lack of fingerprint pad configuration - if someone would like to use it for example to sleep/wake the phone.

One way or another - the rom is great, congratulations, I was nearly crying when I had to go back to my previous fully functional daily driver... ;)

I need a good N7+ rom for battery backup

(Think it's fire kernel based)

don't know what to choose

Thanks in advance

Wow, looks awesome. Will try soon.

Thanks a lot for building this project.

This is exactly what i was looking for.

edit: 06-10-2020

OMG! , last night i installed this rom.

My startlte (S9) was already unlocked and installed with TWRP 3.3.1-1

So i wiped my phone and installed the ROM.

It was a breeze.

After installation the phone boots up really quickly and oh my god, this phone feels fast.

Faster then i have ever experienced it.

It takes a few minutes to get everything set up the way i like it.

But it is a new experience.

The phone responds blazing fast and it does everything i want it to.

Calls, GPS, Wifi , LTE / 4G , its all perfect.

This is , to date, THE best de-googled ROM i have seen.

The only sidenote i have is, i would really like to see the smart cover support for the Samsung Case.

But other then that it is amazing.

I highly recommend this rom for anyone who wants to have the best performance and increased privacy on their phone.

Also i want to give the creators a shoutout for this amazing project.

Thanks a lot, keep up the good work.

My phone is better then new.

Thanks!!

[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ Cross Device Development] HazardsDE:
i just installed the first star2lte build it's an impressive rom but i still have some questions not answered in the FAQ. Why did you choose Qwant browser it only has 1 search engine which is not really good like startpage. And also how can I add more hosts to the iode adblocker? thank you
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ Cross Device Development] vince31fr:
Thanks for you comment!

You tried it before its official announcement, but that's not a problem ;)

When we decided to embed the Qwant browser, there was the possibility to add any search engine. Unfortunately in the last Qwant version, whose UI is however nicely remodeled, that possibility has vanished. We're a bit disappointed too. We had long discussions about which default browser to include, and maybe we'll discuss again! Any motivated suggestion is welcome...

We'll probably add the possibility to customize the block list and white list thought the UI. In the meantime, you can play with files in /system/etc/snort : 2 of them are unmodified energized lists, the two other contain the customization we make (just one actually: we whitelist iphone-services.apple.com because it is needed by the Apple NLP backend, and should be painless unless that backend is used - and even if it is used, I don't think that the information gathered by Apple would be very useful..).

[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ Cross Device Development] quitnau:
Had the same problem, I hope you made a backup of your data partition ^^
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ Cross Device Development] xavier66:
Current TWRP builds are not compatible with Android 11's encryption, this is why it fails to decrypt the device. You should try flashing lineage's own recovery. You can download it at https://github.com/iodeOS/ota/releases/tag/v2-starlte .

@vince31fr: it might be worth updating the download links to point to the recovery image, as many people might be coming in with TWRP installed.

I personally went back to ArrowOS + microg (installed with MinMicroG) because I want to keep TWRP.

[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ Cross Device Development] Tom1369:
@Pierfranc

Please see the update note of vince31fr below. I think the answer to your question is "yes, it will encrypt your phone".

Of course, I do not know, why you would like to avoid encryption, at all. When I got me my S9 one year ago, I also did not want to have it encrypted. The reason for me was to be able to create backups with TWRP (TWRP cannot access encrypted data partitions of S9/S9+, yet). In the following weeks I learned, how difficult it is to avoid encryption. And since I want to protect my private data, I finally decided to drop my wish to avoid encryption and encrypted my S9 myself. I found ways to backup my data without using TWRP and I did not encounter the problems reported by some members of this forum during the November update. In fact, I created a backup before the update (as I always do) and then ran the OTA update without any problems and any need to recover my data afterwards.

Regards

Tom
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ Cross Device Development] Pierfranc:
I don't want encrypt simply because I have too much data and files to wipe the partition so I don't want lose anything and making backup would be slow. Also because if the ROM doesn't work well for me I have to change it and decrypt again. I could encrypt only if I would be sure that I will not change it. I am in a testing phase. I have to find the lightest ROM with best camera, Aosp based preferred. So I want leave the device untied.

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ Cross Device Development] heintosz:
Hi everyone,

I updated to the latest version and lost ALL data! As described in previous posts: beware of the 2.2 update! Through the encryption during the update most apps were simply gone. The ones that remained weren't working.

So i thought: ha i'll just go back to my nandroid backup. But that didn't work either since TWRP couldn't write the encrypted partitions propperly. So yeah, everthing gone, bootloop then stuck on iode screen, nice!

I installed latest BL and CP through Odin, then installed iode recovery through Odin (had to convert the .img into .tar cause Odin flashable file is not availyblee on github). Went into recovery and installed iode2.1 which i still had in my sd card.

On first boot i was asked for a password, which i never set, so i couldn't boot. It did a factory reset automatically, which didn't work, so i ended up going to recovery doing the factory reset mself.

After successful boot to iode 2.1 i updated to 2.2 OTA latest version, rebooted and now at least the OS and apps that i newly install are working.

So, yeah that update was ****. Apps and data gone, lots of unnecessary work to set up everything again, root gone. Not amused...

But on the bright side (is there really one?): knowing that safety net won't pass anyway with magisk, i will not root again and try my best without it. So at least the things, that didn't work before due to rooting are now working. and i guess i'm encrpted so yay...?
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ Cross Device Development] heintosz:
I fully understand and in your case just stay away from 2.2. Read my post above if you like.
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ Cross Device Development] heintosz:
If you are on 2.1 you can install any magisk through TWRP. But note that safetynet won't pass and some apps will break like Netflix.
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ Cross Device Development] Pierfranc:
yes, I didn't flash it for that reason. So the 2.1 doesn't encrypt anything?
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ Cross Device Development] heintosz:
correct, encrytion was added in 2.2. I had TWRP plus iode 2.1 both rooted and non rooted before and it worked great. everything before the november update should be fine.

why did i take the risk to flash 2.2 then? i guess the urge to have the latest version :) and the added blocking capabilities and working DRM for netflix.
