[Asus Zenfone 5Z  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] ThE_MarD:
Heyyo @iShaKinGameR and @HtMawia , the step after ROM flash and reboot to recovery is very important for us as Z01R is an A/B partitioned device. The ROM always flashes to the inactive slot and then it tells the bootloader to switch slots which requires a reboot. So the reboot to recovery is to get recovery to reload onto the slot that the ROM was flashed so that you can then install gapps and such.

Devices that are A-Only, such as the Lenovo Z6 Pro (Zippo) do not need this step as there is only one slot it can flash to. I think the Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 (X00TD) Is only A-Only as well.
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] iSKGtm:
So far everything is OK and more fluid than ZenUI. I just realized that the ROM doesn't seem to have a Camera Wide-Angle, I tried to activate it through build.prop and went into bootloop. I am trying to use it daily. :cowboy:

Edit: The HDR DCI mode does not activate on YouTube.
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] greves1:
Hi, the rom is great, but I have no mobile network. It should just reigster on the network automatically... Any ideas? I think maybe it has something to do with the vendor file. How do I update this? Which file is correct, and at what point do I flash it? Thanks!
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] ThE_MarD:
@iShaKinGameR , the LOS snap camera app only supports the main rear camera. For the aux rear camera I recommend switching to a different camera app like OpenCamera or better yet, the Wichaya GCam mods which I link to in my first post.

There's no need for that aux camera app prop as I used the newer prop that just exposes the aux camera to all camera apps ;)

Z01R: Expose aux camera globally · LineageOS/android_device_asus_Z01R@22dbb34

Switch out vendor.camera.aux.packagelist for persist.vendor.camera.expose.aux Change-Id: I7295184a001d4c851b2d147bd35399b06a185bc4

github.com

Tbh I'm unsure of any HDR DCI videos on YouTube, but I do know that HDR itself does work for me on the LOS official build...

If it doesn't work for you, can you please provide logcat?

@greves1 , can you please provide logcat? There is no need to modify anything in the vendor partition as we use a source-built vendor partition which includes everything needed to make our device work on LineageOS 17.1.
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] iSKGtm:
I was able to access the aux cam in a GCAM, I just didn't know her ID. (y)

While the question of HDR, I realized that even watching videos with HDR on YouTube, it seems that it made no difference in color, looking like an SDR video with weak colors.

Other than that, LOS is quite stable. How do I send the logcast?
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] ThE_MarD:
@iShaKinGameR you can either attach the logcat here or PM it to me. You might need to zip it to attach it here. Otherwise you can share a Google drive link or something is fine too
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] ThE_MarD:
Heyyo, I just tested the seamless upgrades to the Jan18 build and it works good (y)

I'll try to figure out how to make a TWRP installer for us and I'll also apply for TWRP official build co-maintainer too and merge that FBE commit so we can just use the official TWRP builds. All Android 11 ROMs are using FBE since they use our source-built vendor too, so FDE on Z01R is becoming a thing of the past anyways

I think i messed up the active a/b,and proceed to flash on both,then I sucessfully flash the LOS ROM,but now im stuck on booting up the LOS,is there anything I can do to fix this situation?
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] decentguy49:
can you just boot to recovery and factory reset all and then flash again?

[Asus Zenfone 5Z  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] hotpepper1999:
Hello. I am very excited that there is finally an official LOS !!! Thank you very much!

I have some Questions:

1. Is it possilbe to use FDE (Full Device Encryption) or do i have to use File Based Encryption?

2. I allready have LOS 16.0 and a FDE enabled TWRP installed (Here from this Forum). How do i proceed? Just download the New TWRP & LOS 17.1 and install it? Or do i have to go back to Stock Rom and upgrade to Vendor Q ?
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] ThE_MarD:
Heyyo @hotpepper1999 , yeah I'm glad Z01R has official builds too :)

1. For FDE? I have no plans to support that as FBE is superior. If you wish to modify your builds for FDE? You will need to redo it anytime you upgrade builds.

To do this? Reboot to recovery, make sure adb is enabled, mount vendor and then run..

adb shell sed -i -e 's|fileencryption=ice|encryptable=footer|g' "/vendor/etc/fstab.qcom"

And then test it by rebooting to system.

For question 2? If you want to switch to FBE? You will want to backup everything important off of your device and then format data / factory reset.

You can use either TWRP or LOS and follow the instructions as they are in the first post.

There is no need to go back to stock ROM as official LOS 17.1 for Z01R includes the necessary device firmware and source-built vendor. (y)
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] hotpepper1999:
Thank you very much for the fast & in depth reply.

I just hoped that FDE was still a "standart" option......

I prefer FDE for security reasons, the downsides of FBE (mainly metadata related) are discussed elsewhere in great lenght. BUT it seems that the future in Android is FBE. And having regular upgrades to the system with no manual interaction is way more important! So i gonna stick with FBE (for living in peace with my "weaker self" 😂 ).

EDIT:

i just figured that another mayor (!!) downside of FBE ist, that it does not allow seperated Passwords for boot & unlock. (Please: Correct me if I am wrong.)

I just love my setup: STRONG bootpassword and easy unlock pin. In combination with the an APP "reboot after 3 wrong PINs" my Phone is kinda hard to break in, but still easy to use as daily driver.

Perhaps i have to kick my "weaker self" into his a** and do it the

way.
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] ThE_MarD:
@hotpepper1999 yeah, FDE has become legacy, so potentially supporting it in the future might become a pain too...

Tbh I always hated the boot password lol, FDE doesn't allow for power-on alarm where-as FBE does as it allows it to boot all the way up to the lockscreen.

I wish we had a metadata partition just to make our FBE more secure, but even still? It's not like FBE is so easily hackable, otherwise Google wouldn't be slowly depreciating FDE.
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Prakharbharti:
I have a few questions

1. Can I enable 'ask for password at boot' in Lineage OS?

2. Can't someone change the recovery or ROM and access data even if data is encrypted in Lineage OS?(since bootloader is unlocked)

3. How do I get CTS to pass in magisk?
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] hotpepper1999:
Hi There,

Here is are my 2 cents:

Question 1:

If by "password at boot" you mean the FDE (Full Disk Encryption) which was standart until LinageOS 16, the Answer is given in Posting #29 (see above)

This ROM comes with FBE (File base encryption), which needs a password at the moment, just when yo have to enter the PIN of your SIM-Card. And every time you want to unlock your phone.

Question 2:

The Userdata ist encrypted (as long as the device is locked).

Anybody could only copy the encrypted data from your phone an try to bruteforce the password.

I am not a crypto expert. But i suppose the encryption is stong enough for the most cases you want your data to be protected. (I suppose the are ways for Organisations like N.S.A. to get it anyway. But: if you are on a list of special treatment from Oragnisations like this, you are in trouble anyway.)

If someone installs a new ROM the encrypted userdata have to be wiped to make it work. So this is not a way into your data.

I don't know if the system (root dir) is also encrypted, if not:

Someone could change some files to put any kind of spyware (like keyloggers/remote access tools) onto your phone (when he/she has physical access to the phone).

Question 3:

I have no clue what CTS is... Sorry cant help here.
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] hotpepper1999:
Hi ThE_MarD,

at the TWRP download link i found a posting saying:

but i can't find it, just the initial TWRP-file '...-test10' is there to download.

Can you Please check this out. Thanks.
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Prakharbharti:
Hi

Thanks for the answer and just to be clear' 'aslong as the device is locked' means it has some pin/pass or does it mean screen off lock?

I guess if someone installs TWRP and tries to access my data he/she would have to enter my pin/pass first?

About question 3 - how do I make device pass safetynet so I can run banking apps and Netflix?
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] hotpepper1999:
You have to set a PIN/PASS which is asked for at every "turning on the screen to use the phone". In in this case your data will be encrypted.

Right guess.

I am not really into this stuff. But i suppose you should try using Magisk. Any deeper Info about safteynet should be found on the XDA-Thread over there.
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] ThE_MarD:
@hotpepper1999 , if you want to try TWRP test 11 build with the installer zip you can, but I don't think decryption works with the installer... So work still needs to be done

[Asus Zenfone 5Z  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] aqua_hopps:
Encountered a minor issue cold booting 20210208 official nightly LOS.

If I let go of the power button right after the boot vibration, the device will shut-off after the bootloader warnings.

I have to hold the power button until the warnings are displayed for the device to boot into LOS.
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] ThE_MarD:
@aqua_hopps I think that is a limitation of the fac bootloader that we have to use as it isn't the most up to date one, but it ensures anyone using either the official or unofficial bootloader unlock methods can use the official LineageOS 17.1 builds.

So I've gotten a report that for some users with certain devices that support Bluetooth a2dp have had random restarts during voice calls either via telephone or VoIP apps. If you experience it, can you please logcat it up to the point the Z01R reboots and submit a log to me either on this thread or in PM?
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] ThE_MarD:
Heyyo, new test build going up! Link as always in the first post. lineage-17.1-20210407-UNOFFICIAL-Z01R contains some fixes to Bluetooth properties so anyone with Bluetooth a2dp offload issues please try this build. I also updated the vendor blobs to the latest build 100.10.107.123 so please test all functions like camera and performance.
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] ThE_MarD:
Heyyo, a new test build is going up! Link as always in the first post and I'm uploading meow so it'll be ready in about 10 minutes. lineage-17.1-20210408-UNOFFICIAL-Z01R contains the Bluetooth prop fixes from the last build for those having issues with Bluetooth A2DP offload. There's also the blob updates from our stock ROM 100.10.107.123 and also device firmware too! Boot times should be a little more snappy and @aqua_hopps that annoying power on issue you mentioned is fixed with the updated device firmware! So please test this build out. It also switches us back to QTI Power HAL as we never properly switched to the Pixel power-libperfmgr... so the camera perf hints should work correctly for us (smoother camera performance, mainly in dark environments). The last build I accidentally broke the fingerprint sensor lol oops, so anyone on the previous build should definitely upgrade.

If you have a Oneplus 8t purchased for Tmobile your imei is blocked. You will not be able to obtain any of the Oneplus Care services like extended warranty, accidental damage, screen repair or even use the Oneplus Care application.

I have spent the last eight days speaking with various departments at Oneplus and Servify (Oneplus internal warranty company) to confirm this.

I am fairly disappointed that this was not communicated in any way and in fact the Oneplus website will lie to you once you enter your IMEI with an error that "Oops, the store is too crowded. Please try again later."

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] KITPUNK:
Greetings!

Hope this is the right place to post this. I've installed ElementalX kernel in hopes of charging my Nexus 7 (2013 - Android 6.0.1) while having USB devices plugged in (charge during or plugged in after). My ultimate goal is to have a USB accessory permanently plugged in (mouse, SD, whatever) and be able to plug in my charging cable whenever needed without unplugging the OTG cable.

When I was on stock, any USB device plugged in functioned normally (as expected). After going over to ElementalX, the USB port only recognizes charging and not devices, even if I'm not using charging and plug a mouse or thumbdrive directly in, it reads nothing anymore. I've tried plugging the charge cable in before and after plugging in the devices, nothing.

I've tried several OTG cables and adapters, USB devices, tried wireless charging + device, still the same issue persists. If I disable the OTG feature, the USB port works again for devices (just not simultaneously with charge of course).

I've tried various builds of ElementalX, Kangaroo, Glitch, anything that has Nexus 7 OTG+Charging support (haven't had luck installing Timur kernel without crashing). Not sure what I am doing wrong or if there is something I am missing.

Any help would be appreciated.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] k23m:
