Pls be sure you've done steps 9-12 as in the original post (patching vendor?), without doing them I had the same.

I installed it and almost everything works fine, but Google sync doesn't work at all, I still can't identify the failure, I used different recovery, other than that everything works fine.
[Asus Zenfone 5 (2018, ZE620KL) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] Reick7:
probably not installed Vendor custom, as said by the developer, if it's in Beta Android 10 it should also work fine.

remember after installing reinstall custom recovery, otherwise it will return to stock recovery:

1- move the stock to ExtSdcard

2- enter on your custom recovery

3- install the zip

4- install Twrp or OrangeFox again

5- reboot to the recovery (if you press reboot system you have a high chance of losing recovery)

Hello, what is your error ?
[Asus Zenfone 5 (2018, ZE620KL) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] hotmatua.parulian:
Dear @MLZ94 the error is below, im using twrp 3.5.2-9-0

Invalid zip file format!

Error installing zip file '/sdcard/Download/Magisk-24.1.zip'

And also audiofx blank when open, is it possible to uninstall it? Thank you

[Update] I think i already know the answer to magisk issue, just read the installation guide, i have to created patched_image from the boot_image, then flash the patched image
[Asus Zenfone 5 (2018, ZE620KL) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] MLZ94:
Make sure the zip file is not corrupted. You might need to redownload it.

You can uninstall audiofx either by using a system app remover from play store (root required), or you can use adb with the following commande:

adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 org.lineageos.audiofx

Mr @MLZ94 i have a problem, i always set wifi and mobile data on (as i always do in A9 stock), theres no problem if wifi is available, but if theres no wifi then the mobile data wont connect, in order to make mobile data works i have to on-off airplane mode first.

Is there any solution, or i have to activate only one connection?

And another problem, recently nothing happened no error message but the phone turned off by itself
[Asus Zenfone 5 (2018, ZE620KL) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] MLZ94:
Well, this shouldn't happen, as it works fine for other users. I don't know what is your issue due to. I guess you already tried to reboot, but if you didn't, then try it. You can try to enable the option to keep mobile data on over wifi from developper settings.

Btw, has this issue just come or it was there since the first flash ?
[Asus Zenfone 5 (2018, ZE620KL) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] hotmatua.parulian:
I just checked, the mobile data over wifi setting is already active
[Asus Zenfone 5 (2018, ZE620KL) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] hotmatua.parulian:
Another thing just happened, the phone in idle mode, then theres phone call coming, the incoming call screen is displayed for a second but then back to off/black again and i cant answer/pick the call
[Asus Zenfone 5 (2018, ZE620KL) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] hotmatua.parulian:
So far it can be resolved by installing google dialer and set it as default dialer, as for mobile data connection i have to on-off airplane mode twice to make it enable
[Asus Zenfone 5 (2018, ZE620KL) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] hotmatua.parulian:
So far it can be resolved by changing the active APN, hopefully its the answer to the problem..thanks anyway

Hi, I followed all the steps.

The only thing that doesn't work is the fingerprint scanner. Even installing custom firmware v1.

Everything else works perfectly.

Is there any other custom firmware?
[Asus Zenfone 5 (2018, ZE620KL) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] MLZ94:
Hi.

Your issue is definitely due to the firmware. Sometimes the custom firmware zip doesn't work as expected and you may need to flash it again. Try to reflash the custom firmware v1 zip again. It usually eventually works.

Wonderful ROM for my 4 year old device!

One problem though, I have noticed problem with Netflix and Disneyplus playback

I suppose that would be related to the DRM Widevine certification

Any plan of including that in upcoming updates?

I followed the instructions and succeeded after a lot of fiddling to make it work. It was quite a big pain in the butt though, rooting my Android 5-6 back in the day was much easier.

FOR PEOPLE WHO DON'T KNOW, YOU NEED TO DO THIS IF YOU'RE ON A ZENFONE 5 ON ANDROID 9 AND YOU WISH TO UNLOCK THE BOOTLOADER = Unlock bootloader Guide for Zenfone 5 AND FOR THE LOVE OF GOD HAVE AN SD CARD IN YOUR PHONE OR YOU WILL CAUSE YOURSELF PROBLEMS.

So far it's a good experience, I had to fiddle with some settings to get it how I want it and so far so good, I'm getting roughly the same battery life as on Android 9 but not like when I was on Android 10 AOSP (It was better).

I definitely appreciated being able to switch my "Back<Home<Multi" to "Multi<Home<Back" as I used on Android 9, I was unable to use this on Android 10 AOSP.

I've also struggled a little bit with the camera(s) showing being "In Use" as I open the camera app, seems to have gone away quite a bit after disabling the camera on multiple apps or making them "Ask For Permission Each Time". Bluetooth has also been struggling a little bit with connection to my car as sometimes I have to enable/disable it a few times at first connection to get it to work, once it does there are no issues.

Aside from that, please let me know if you have other questions, I attached a PDF of the link in case it goes down.

Thanks to you, devs!

EDIT: I used NikGapps Omni for all my Google needs, you can restore data from your previous device, HOWEVER,

you must both Backup manually at System > Backup AND (not 100% sure about this one) you may not be able to restore data to a version of Android below version 13 if you backup data from an Android 13 installation.

Hi,

Thanks for this rom. everything works well, the only thing is that 4G calls work, but for wifi calls it puts the logo but doesn't work at all.

Can you sort this out please?

Or maybe to set for Android 14, but I think it's a real shame, because I'm in a place where the network goes exclusively through wifi so I need it instead 😅

So I don't know if anyone can help me, but I don't know how to build the Kernel. I have read this post:

[REFERENCE] How to compile an Android kernel

Introduction Hello everyone, I will be going over how to compile a kernel from beginning to end! Prerequisites: A Linux environment (preferably 64-bit) Knowledge of how to navigate the command line Common sense A learning spirit, there will be...

xdaforums.com

But it looks like you need a Linux system to build the kernel, and I don't have a Linux neither know how to use it.

Theres a way to build the Kernel in Windows? Or download the already built kernel? (Dont know if its possible)

I remember installing a custom rom in my zenfone 2 and i didnt need to build a kernel.
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] draymond1987:
Hey guys and gals!

So I don't wanna keep posting on other ROM threads to be annoying, so I will create a thread of my own. How do one flash the system_ext.img coming from Stock (root) ? I absolutely cannot get any TWRP versions (Chinese or English) to function. I take my passcode off and it's always 0mb. Doesn't matter if I am on a custom ROM or not. It's just something I cannot get to work. ONE time, it seen my storage but it would not flash a ROM. SO how can I flash this image via fastboot?

Global version of OOS. Although, I am currently on EXTENDED. I said Stock because I'll always have a Crash Dump, and need to start over. It's also tiresome to flash YAAP (12-18-20) then use the updater to create the image. Again, some things with this device, I'm getting used to. I'm all for learning and testing everything. I just cannot find a way to flash this image or get TWRP to function.

Have a great day!
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] lil_kujo:
So I would suggest you update your fastboot tools, because once you have the partition created assuming you are coming from a rom that has the system ext img it shouldn't be a problem. For example this is what I did, I was on RR remix so twrp chinese was working ( by the way I don't know why it wouldn't work for you if it works for everyone else) from there its just a matter of flashing the zip that contains the img. You can try derp,evox, yaap etc. After that again just flash what ever rom you desire it shouldn't be any issues. Also to keep in mind that a11 with twrp does not work with a pin only with a pattern, even tho I have read you said you have no pin lock. Wouldn't really know why your device would be the case but you can try that out .
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] draymond1987:
Sorry for the delay. Wish XDA would alert me, better. So Chinese TWRP is working now, on XTEND. I dunno, sometimes it works and sometimes I get 0mb. I think that point, to go onto a ROM WITH that image, should be fine. Since I always had troubles, I'd only fastboot flash to different ROMs. Trust me, for all my time on Android, this device is making me needy and a big newb. I just waiting for that "then don't bother to flash anything and shut up" LOL! BUT then again, I'm not on r/jailbreak. So once the partition is created, I can go to a ROM without that image? Do you know how I can check? Because I would like to just flash Hydrogen but don't wanna jump to stock. I think I can just flash a ROM with it and reboot back to the bootloader without setting up, right?
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] lil_kujo:
That img will always exist is part of android 11 so it will be the norm. Every rom in the future will have it as seen on some custom roms right now, I flashed the h2os from twrp since I was coming from derp. So I didnt go back to stock. When you flash that img a partition will be created so the space will be available for when you flash another rom. So in the case that for example you were on derp and decided to fastboot flash h2os 11 you will not have issues flashing with fastboot commands the system_ext to both slots. ( By the way you need to specify which slot so I recommend you have a custom rom prior on both slots better if it's a11 rom.) The command fastboot flash system_ext_a system_ext.img and system_ext_b system_ext.img is to be used when doing it with fastboot command from fastbootd. If you decide to go with twrp from any custom rom a11 like the ones mentioned before just flash and right after you flash format data. You will lose twrp since the zip has the new recovery from oneplus. Reboot to recovery and again format data reboot enjoy. If you want to use just regular fastboot method you have to flash every img in the zip like 23 or so don't rememeber in order for it to work. So to make it simple for you. Flash a custom a11 rom with twrp if you are on a custom rom already. To both slots. After reboot and have the rom settle by letting it start to home screen. Save the zip of h2os to the phone reboot to recovery flash h2os zip not don't reboot but in twrp go to wipe format data. Then reboot to recovery again it will reboot to stock recovery format data again reboot and enjoy.

You will still have a custom rom in the other slot and if you want to have the stock on both slots just use the ota system update form stock rom local upgrade

There you go it should be simple and quick it took me like ten minutes to set it up and flash yesterday. By the way despite being a beta I really enjoy h2os 11. Do expect some minor bugs since it's a beta build.
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] lil_kujo:
I'll leave a link so you can read about system_ext and android new partition going forward. https://source.android.com/devices/bootloader/partitions
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] draymond1987:
You're a wealth of information! Thanks for helping me to understand!

Edit: I tried the installing of two ROMs but I couldn't get it. I tried XTEND and Derp. But I had trouble with Xtend not being able to boot after setting up Derp. I had to wipe data for it to boot. Then lost everything. Bleh.
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] draymond1987:
Can I ask you for your recommendation for an A11 ROM to have on a slot?
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] lil_kujo:
So just to give you some more context, when you have to different rom on each slot is normal you have to format data, one : because they might have different data format , example oneplus only supports ext4 while derp is f2fs. So when flashing derp and the other slot is xtended is expected you will have to format in some occasions it might boot but you will have a buggy experience. So now that you have two custom roms and twrp try flashing h2os and again always format data and format data again in stock recovery since that will change the data format to ext4.
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] lil_kujo:
Derp works perfect, that is the one I was coming from.
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] draymond1987:
So I can have derp AND Hydro running? But like, when I format data, it was a full data wipe. I guess what you're talking about, right? Like I said, both ROMs kinda worked but it force a "fastboot -w". Maybe since I can get TWRP to work, I can wipe data there, and not touch user data?
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] lil_kujo:
On 7t there is no such thing as dual boot you can have of course one rom in one slot and another different slot on the other slot and it would work, also when you fastboot -w you are not erasing the imgs, you are erasing user data. The imgs from the rom will always be there until you change them. There is no way of saving data because of what i mentioned before of the different dat file ext4 and f2fs, when you are on stock it will "make data work for it but not for other roms" because of the decryption issue for one and second because of the format ext4. The only two roms i have tried so far that you can have dual boot are EVO x and Derp because there code is so similar coming from the same dev. SO to answer your question, Yes you can have two different ROMS but the rom that you use for setup that will be the one that will take over, in this case stock will take over data, which means you wont be able to use the other slot till you format data again and get rid of the encryption so that the other rom can use data partition. I know it sounds complicated but it really is very simple.
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] draymond1987:
It is rather simple. I did notice a few people using those ROMs in slots. I mean, it's not a big deal if I can have two ROMs. I do miss the days of dual booting though.

May I ask, and this isn't to make a ROM work with Stock on a slot. Can you convert the file system to F2FS? I stumbled across a ROM that said it was better on this device but I can't find that post.
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] lil_kujo:
yes you can, it depends, if the rom supports it. the fastboot way is way to complicated so twrp is the best option, when you choose wipe you will see a setting that says advanced, from there you choose data and click the option change format or repair then you will see some options. do note that when you change the type it will erase your data. do note that only data will change your system data will still be ext4.
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] draymond1987:
Ahh okay, I think I understand a little better now. Thanks for everything so far!
