Does this only work with a stock rom? ProtonAOSP?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] ForForkSake:
Hey dude,

i loved your Samsung work, so much I even paid for your rom control

Anyway you've made my day. Only just got this device and went straight for Android 13 beta 2... Any plans for developing A13?

I'll downgrade if need be
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] mwilky:
Hi mate, good to see another old face back here!

I may take a look at adding support for A13 in the next release. Not really a fan of supporting betas but if a few people are asking for it then I may consider!
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] ForForkSake:
Nah

I understand .. hard to debug whilst still beta..

Not a whole lot of difference either.

In fact, I'm Only here because I couldn't boot anything else... Later worked out to be magisk.

I'll downgrade tomorrow :)
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] finshan:
Hey dev, good work here but I have some bugs on an otherwise stock but rooted pixel 6 pro on the latest update:

- square and circle icons have no description below them

- disable quicksettings on lockscreen doesn't work, you can swipe them down like normal (but the animation is jank and broken) and the buttons still work

I've tried enabling/disabling in different combinations and with reboots in between.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] mwilky:
What version are you on? Latest version definitely had the labels in quicksettings.

I will take a look at the quicksettings pulldown
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] finshan:
App version 3.3.4

ROM version 5.0

One pic shows the quicksettings icons with no labels (same if they're square). The other shows quicksettings work on lockscreen even when disabled, but they look bugged until you release your finger and then they expand (suddenly, no fluid animation) and look normal. They don't look bugged when I'm not on the lockscreen.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] mwilky:
Are those the quick quick settings or the fully expanded quicksettings? There are no labels on the quick quicksettings prior to Android 12 which is what style these are. I guess I could make a toggle for this if you like.

The animation is a bit glitchy yes, it's a tricky one but I'm aware of it and I am trying to fix.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] finshan:
Oooh I see, they aren't all the way expanded. Nice 👍. Still recommend to show labels before expanding but I guess that was my misunderstanding.

Regarding the quicksettings on the lockscreen, the animation is jank but that's not the problem. The problem is that they show even after disabling them on the lockscreen in the rice app.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] mwilky:
Can you still click them though? I changed it so that they aren't clickable, but this doesn't seem to be working for everyone.

What screen lock options do you have? Can you send me a video of the issue?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] finshan:
Ya, can still click them. The app itself may be bugged because I just switched to it and it was a light theme that has extra lockscreen options about album art, but when I closed it and went back it's dark theme again and those options are gone.

But here's a video. At some point in this, it stopped bugging the pulldown animation so that appears normal in the video.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] reaper000:
Thanks for your hard work, especially appreciate having QS tiles >2 per row...

Can I request a feature? Network traffic on the status bar!
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] finshan:
Made some progress on this.

The lockscreen buttons can be pressed if you swipe down in the middle of the screen, but not if you swipe down from the top of the screen. Probably overlooked that when coding this feature.

Note this isn't about whether the quicksettings are fully expanded, as you can still press the buttons after expanding quicksettings if the drawer itself was pulled down by a swipe on the screen rather than from the top of the screen.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] reaper000:
Just wanted to note that there's an updated build of both module and apk for the Jun update (incl VZW) available in the Telegram feed.

This module is causing me a bootloop... I remove it and all works again, I haven´t installed others modules... any ideas?

Boot into safe mode is needed to get the system working again, restart in normal mode remove this magisk module and install any other reboot and all works well.

reinstall "RENOVATE ICE 6.0" and I get a bootloop again...

any ideas?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] mwilky:
You flashing over the stock pixel ROM yeah? Can you get me a logcat when it is looping please before you it reboots to safe mode?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] spinoza23:
Sure...

after install and before reboot?

if I install and reboot it can't boot..

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I couldn't find a relevant search result in this thread.

@mwilky or anyone else who might know, for the options "In background as a service" and "Change background checking frequency", two questions:

How often is the default (once a day?)

What quantity is the frequency (does 2 = every other day?)

Thanks!

I currently have the Cricket model which doesn't allow for unlocking the bootloader, but I love the phone so much I might pick up a 6GB unlocked version if there's development going on in the background somewhere. Stock 11 (on Cricket) is terrible, even after disabling as many apps as possible. If so, what are people working on? Thanks!

Edit: I should clarify -- I mean ROM development.
[Moto G Stylus 5G] ShayBox:
Not that we know of, everyone seems to be working on GSI, which imo isn't as good as a TWRP & ROM

I dug around, and apparently @Electimon has a group over on Telegram and is working on Lineage. Doubt XDA wants a TG link, but you can find it by looking up electimonrel, has 260 members atm.

Hey! I work on LineageOS Modded and AOSP for this device, i'm planning on releasing builds here at XDA, after its stable.
[Moto G Stylus 5G] Deleted member 4197323:
Super excited about this! Just picked up the 256GB 6GB model in mint condition without a stylus for under $200. The old cricket version is going to come in handy after all, lol
[Moto G Stylus 5G] k1darkknight:
Woo! The pen will finally be joined with a usable phone!

Sarcasm aside, what is the deal with phones these days? I have the 4GB/128GB Cricket model, and I play podcasts on Spotify, while working with Doordash and Uber Eats.

Occasionally, if I'm running both, using GMaps, and have to send a text to a customer, Spotify will stop playing, as if there wasn't enough memory (out of 4 GB!) to support "ALL THOSE" apps! Hell, 4GB is enough to do HEAVY multitasking on a PC. Are we really demanding more of our phones now than we do of our Windows-based systems??
[Moto G Stylus 5G] LinuxAndroid4evr:
These aren't phones nowadays their computers with a phone function I see these going way beyond a handheld device 10 20 years from now.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] DS1000RR:
I'm sure I am not the only one who feels like the S22 Ultra is a Galaxy Note...and replaces the S for this year. I'm worried that this may be a permanent thing, and I really hate the design of the S22 Ultra.

Are we going to see a return to the more curved design of the S21 Ultra in the S23 or am I doomed to abandon Samsung in the future and take a bite out of a manky apple?

Any thoughts?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] blackhawk:
Last great Note was the 10+. The 20U had some improvements but Samsung didn't do as good a job. Samsung has been wasting too much of its resources on the Fold series.

Worse Android 11 and 12 just suck. Then Samsung decides to pull SD card support and the native spen on its flagships. Almost an iPhone at this point. Less features, better price tag.

Perfect. Except I hate iPhones...

Solution, got a 2nd new N10+ running on Q. It will be at least 2023 until Samsung and Android get their crap together is my guess.

Got a device I wuv in my pocket and don't have to deal with their bs; I'm good for 2+ years.

Not my problem anymore🤣
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] beserker15:
What do you mean? Samsung has never pulled native s-pen support on its flagships. All note series obviously has it. They added S-Pen support to the S21U and now the S22U will functionally be a Note with the built in S-Pen slot. Android is moving away from SD cards as a whole, Google is making it harder and harder to support it with increase security measures that affect performance.

I disagree with less features. There hasn't been a release where they have only removed features without also adding something new. Shifting focus on features isn't the same as just removing them.

And to the point of the OP, it depends on how sales figures are. It's weird to completely switch ecosystems and phones just because of a square vs rounded corners but I guess everyone has different priorities. The design is fine to me but I am disappointed that there doesn't seem to be any hardware upgrades to the camera system.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] DS1000RR:
For me it's very much like buying a car. I wouldn't buy a car I didn't like the shape of. The great thing in past years is I could choose between a note or an 's' device. Now with the merge Samsung essentially takes the choice away from me, and I really don't find square edges aesthetically pleasing.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] blackhawk:
The Fold series never had native a Spen or expandable storage.

Samsung biggest R&D and capital outlay to date has been their Fold series.

It's been their worst flagship seller too, they are still aren't generating a net profit from it, not even close.

Sd Cards are more secure than internal storage. If you used data drives you would know that. Cloud storage wastes money, power and bandwidth especially when you have over a 1tb of data. Memory needs are increasing not decreasing with 8K vids, higher resolution images and higher resolution media

I can do a full reload from my SD card, no internet connection or Playstore needed. No need to reload all my data if forced to reload. Not using a data drive on a PC or smartphone is just plain inept.

It's a lick on you.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] beserker15:
The Fold series is more or less still an experiment. The Z Flip 3 was actually a better than expected seller for them but the Fold will never be mainstream until it becomes cheaper and more durable. It's the reason why they canceled the Note 21 and kept the Fold series...because they would not have been able to keep up with demand. Hell, they're still struggling with supply shortages in the S21 series.

I disagree with your view on SD Card security. By default, modern internal storage is encrypted. Most people who put in a passcode and biometrics make it very hard to get access to. The majority of people I know who even still have an SD Card in their phones do not encrypt them (and at that point, you can then just pop out the card and have access to everything without needing to unlock the phone). Even if you do encrypt them, performance would be affected. Google's scope storage and future changes to Android makes it more and more difficult for apps to access SD Cards.

Besides, we can debate cloud vs local storage for days, everyone has differing opinions and usage patterns. What isn't going to change is the fact that those features are being used less and less over time (even if your point about higher data usage and bandwidth is true). I believe that it is important to you. I also totally understand that it and the removal of the headphone jack are deal breakers for some people. However, just to say that all Samsung is doing is removing features is not true at all. To me, the S21u's addition of variable refresh rate to have 120hz when needed but dropping down to save battery when isn't is very important. The addition of the second telephoto camera is the single feature that I value most so far and it would be my own personal deal breaker if their future phones do not have the same reach.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] blackhawk:
Unfortunately the Fold3 is an experiment too. Delamination issues have predictably already shown up again. The materials aren't up to the task.

I never encrypt data drives or anything else because you are the most likely one to be locked out. Or lose all your data. In over 17 years I never had any malware breach the data drives. It's not impossible by a long shot but in actual usage it rarely happens. Of course some of that depends on how well you mind the store.

Security is handled best by having redundant time staggered backups that are physically and electronically isolated from each other and the PC.

Accounts/passwords can reset, bank accounts are insured.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] varcor:
The logic you employ regarding features is flawed. When a feature is removed you lose that feature regardless of how many different features are added. If you liked the feature you're not pleased.

Internal Storage isn't encrypted by default, access to files is protected by passcodes or biometrics only IF the user sets these up, not encryption.

Removing MicroSD is Samsung's stragity to increase profit. The 512GB variant is USD $400.00 more than 128GB and 256GB variants, whereas the added expense to Samsung for manufacturing the 512GB device is likely less than $5.00. Transferring data, videos, music, photos and documentations from my S10 to the S21 literally took HOURS! One would think If External Storage is outdated why does Samsung continue including the feature on almost all of their lower price point devices? Less Internal Storage also compels users to pay for Cloud Storage (more profit). Cloud Storage offers less privacy and security since all major providers have already been hacked.

Note 20 worldwide sales came in at 3.2 million units while the S20 sold 17 million. The S21 is even worse at 13 million but the S10 and S10 Plus with MicroSD and 3.5 Jack weighed in at 25 million units. That's a 47% decline from the S10 to the S21. You and others may believe External Memory isn't important but that's not what sales metrics are exposing. With the S22 Ultra now essentially a Note no one should be surprised Samsung's flagship sales decline will accelerate.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] beserker15:
I never said that those features aren't removed. All I'm saying is the statement "Almost an iPhone at this point. Less features, better price tag" or the common statement that says all they're doing is removing features is simply false. The pitchforks didn't come out when they removed the FM radio or the IR blaster. People obviously care about the SD Card more than those two but it doesn't change the fact that the number is shrinking. If all they did was remove things without adding anything else, then I can agree. However, they're merely putting more resources elsewhere and focusing on other features.

Again, we can debate on the merits of cloud versus local for days, but you must also realize for your sales argument to be true, OEMs that still have those "desired" features should have seen a boost and they have not. Samsung is not the only OEM to remove the SD Card from the flagship. Google did it, Huawei did it, OnePlus did it, etc. The Pixel 6 is probably Google's best selling phone in years and it has neither an SD slot or a headphone jack. LG and Sony are the only ones who still kept both features, and LG has dropped out of mobile phones and Sony is still barely scraping by. What is true though that the S20 got significantly more expensive and both the S20 and S21 were released during the pandemic.

Also your profit margins statement is also incorrect. The S21U with 128GB is $1200 MSRP, with the 512GB model that also has 16gb of RAM at $1380, a difference of $180, not $400. And no, it doesn't cost them less than $5 to quadruple the storage. Hell, they struggled with the chip shortage and have basically discontinued the 512gb model because they couldn't keep up with the demand. Samsung has also exited the cloud storage business so it doesn't directly benefit them if people move to the cloud.

And yes, internal storage is encrypted by default. While on a phone, you can't really just rip out internal storage and move it to another device or read it on a computer, the idea is the same. Encryption is enabled by default and decrypted once the phone is unlocked. If you never setup a passcode on your phone, that just means that whoever has the phone can just unlock your device and have access to your data. If your device is powered off however, or in some state where you can't turn on the phone, another person can't just dismantle the phone, grab the flash memory chip, and put it in another device to read it.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] blackhawk:
With Android 11 and up encryption automatic as I understand it.

Lol, I just raked Samsung customer service over about expandable storage and consequences.

Just because "everybody" is doing something doesn't make it a good idea. Thinking like that can lead to a thrombosis epidemic in today's world.

You're only as good as your last phone... the manufacturer doesn't dictate the market, they cater to it.

Samsung deserves the profit crater their Fold excursion caused. Wanna go for sloppy seconds, again, Sammy?🤣
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] varcor:
Please share a link where someone can buy a new 512GB Ultra for $1,200 USD. How can Internal Storage be "encrypted" when after you use a passcode or biometrics everything is there to be taken. Who cares if the OS is encrypted? Thieves want your data, not the source code for the OS or anything else. Your explanation that the pandemic retarded sales seem at odds with the reality that governments were throwing around lots of cash. I bought the S21 Ultra and a new laptop, all with government handouts. People can rightfully disagree over External Memory, myself and millions of users would take advantage of it IF it were available. I passed on the S20 Ultra and will pass on the S22 as well. If Samsung doesn't make sense by the time they release the S23, TOODLES!
