[LG G5 Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
You may not like my thoughts but she needs to backup her photos and vids independently of WhatsApp or they will likely be lost, sooner or later.

I won't allow WhatsApp or any social media app to be installed on any of my phones. They are a big fat security risk especially for those that aren't tech savvy. WhatsApp is a mecca for scammers and hackers, easy pickens.

If I can't login and use a site completely via browser I don't use it. A browser like Brave provides a buffer zone.

All critical data needs to be redundantly backup to at least 2 hdds that are physically and electronically isolated from each other and the PC. Never encrypt, clone or compress media backup data drives. Verify backup by folder count, data size and that the data is readable.

Regular critical data backup and good security practices are the only ways to help prevent data lose. After it happens will be too late...

A phone with an SD card slot would give her all the memory she needs. The SD card is then used as a data drive. It in turn is then redundantly backed up.

Address her backup plan asap if you haven't already...

Clearing app and system caches will free more space. Check the largest disk users of the 3rd party user installed apps to determine if they are really needed, uninstall to free space.

[OPPO Find X5 Pro General] OnePlus2Oppo:
Title says it all. I will keep it short and sweet.

Upgraded from an OP8. The Oppo definitely feels heavier in the hand and pocket but can attribute this to the ceramic housing. Feels good in the hand, even with the stock case. I did receive the gift pack which had the Kevlar case and that is lovely but the top, bottom and side buttons are exposed to the elements and that has put me off using and I am continuing with the stock case.

Camera - good. Better than the OP8. Better than a Pixel6 Pro? No, almost as good. I am no camera expert so I don't tinker with all the settings, I am more your regular point and shoot user. I rarely shoot video so can't comment much but again no issue, playback is nice and crisp, sharp smooth quality.

Good battery - charges quick, although I'm not convinced the wireless charger is as fast as it claims i.e. 50W.

User experience - this is where I have some gripes. On the whole it is fine and slick and snappy most of the time but...

1. Sometimes there is a moment of freeze/lag/sticks when I have tried to leave an app or switch to another app- not snappy.

2. When I am listening to YouTube via Bluetooth in the car and somebody calls me, the YT playback continues so I hear both the caller and YT. The caller does not hear the YT playback but can hear me. I have tried the various permission settings but no joy.

3. Screen sometimes wakes up with fingerprint. What I mean here is I can place my thumb on the screen and it signs in. However sometimes I have to double tap the screen to wake it up THEN apply my finger to unlock.

4. Power button - does not power down. Have to use volume up and Power button. Not a biggie but quite annoying.

5. No lockdown mode. I badly want this, but again this works in tandem with the power button.

6. No alert slider like the OnePlus range (which I hear is ditching the alert slider which means they will be using and rebranding Oppo hardware going forward). I usually have my phone on vibrate or silent, very rarely on Loud/ringtones. A helpful XDA user advised me to use the vibrate button to switch between silent and vibrate.

7. I use the Podcast Addict app. The player appears in the banner (pull down) even after I have closed the app. Annoying. This did not happen on the OP8, ever.

Appreciate 6 of the 7 above are software issues and this might be a ColorOS thing and needs tidying up. If anyone has answers to the above that can help me, please do let me know.

I like my phone. Is it significantly better than my OP8? No... better camera but on a day to day, that's it. Again this comes down to what people use their phones for. I am not a gamer so the new SD8.1 will be of use to others.

Thanks all
[OPPO Find X5 Pro General] blackhawk:
I trust user reviews more than the mainstream glowing it's great reviews...🙂

All Androids need to be optimized to get the best performance. Workarounds need to be found for issues.

Try modifying the notification settings for Pod Addict. For badly behaving apps I will turn off notifications for them completely... or just take out the trash🤣

Stock firmware from Tecno smartphones. Although our smartphones are practically brothers, their firmware seemed to me more interesting than ours, and it works faster. In the firmware, all system partitions are transferred to RW.Added more fonts. Put it through a custom recovery:we make a backup, flash the file,make the data format, and rejoice in the new firmware

bro when i install it in twrp, which option i select to flash image? system (logical)? or what?

edit: ah i selected super and its fine now thanks
[Android General] arraki:
Yes, it is necessary to flash in the super section. A little later I will give another link, I have changed the firmware. By the way, since these smartphones are brothers, I got one interesting trick:you can make a backup of the data on the stock, and then restore it on this firmware, and everything works fine. But the backup data from this firmware, for some reason does not want to load.But it's even more convenient, it takes up less space.One backup for two firmware.
[Android General] Malzadar:
Wow thanks. This firmware really smooth and looks cool. I like this firmware more than the stock 🤣
[Android General] arraki:
Updated the link
[Android General] Malzadar:
what changelog in the new firmware? or you only update the link?
[Android General] arraki:
This firmware is based on a different version.I corrected and replaced something. There are new functions, such as RAM expansion, although it does not work for us, it seems that support is needed in the kernel.DTS has also appeared, it works

Installation method?
[OnePlus 9 Pro] danielmurphy:
Hi everyone,

I'm using LineageOS with a OnePlus 9 Pro.

I'm trying to install the OnePlus camera app downloaded from here: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/onepl.../oneplus-camera-6-2-117-android-apk-download/

When I try to install it with the built-in installer, it just says "App not installed."

If I try installing it with the APKMirror installer, it displays the error message "The parser did not find any certificates in the .apk"

What is the reason for this, or how can I fix this?

Thanks!
[OnePlus 9 Pro] warangekar:
Is that. Apk file?
[OnePlus 9 Pro] danielmurphy:
Hi @warangekar!

Yep, it's an .apk file downloaded from here: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/onepl.../oneplus-camera-6-2-117-android-apk-download/, it's com.oneplus.camera_6.2.117-26211918_minAPI29(arm64-v8a)(nodpi)_apkmirror.com.apk

(This is the version for which the Notes say "Extracted from OnePlus 9 Pro", that's why I chose this one. But afterwards I tried a couple more different versions of the same app, and I got the same error message for all of them when tried to install.)
[OnePlus 9 Pro] warangekar:
It's extension is exactly. apk something like .xapk, .apks
[OnePlus 9 Pro] danielmurphy:
@warangekar It's exactly .apk
[OnePlus 9 Pro] warangekar:
Download Mirror Apk installer and try to install it with it
[OnePlus 9 Pro] danielmurphy:
@warangekar I did, as I wrote in my first message:

>If I try installing it with the APKMirror installer, it displays the error message "The parser did not find any certificates in the .apk"
[OnePlus 9 Pro] warangekar:
May be that Apk file is corrupt
[OnePlus 9 Pro] warangekar:
If that file is not corrupted then you should try following,

This error is thrown by adb when we use it to install the application on a device/emulator. There are a few things you can try to isolate and resolve the issue.

Try on a different device/emulator. If this works, it is most probably an issue with the device configuration - check that USB debugging is enabled in Developer options.

Try killing the adb process. The CLI will start a fresh one on the next run.

Try to cleanup the configuration and artifacts directories - rm -rf node_module hooks platforms. Then run the application again.

Try installing Android SDK Tools version 28.0.3 and Android SDK 28

If the issue persists, you can run the project with tns run android --log trace > out.txt command and send us the out.txt file that will contain the full output log of the NativeScript CLI.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] Oneplus#:
As the page says :

- "Note: Sideloading this APK may not work, so you may need root to install. Click here for more info.

For some reason, some manufacturers sometimes forget to sign some system APKs with APK Signature Scheme v2, while indicating that these APKs are indeed v2-signed. These APKs are usually signed with only APK Signature Scheme v1 (jar signature), so we can still confirm the signature is valid, but Android will refuse to sideload them due to the missing v2 signature."

So most probably signing it will do the trick.

I signed it with a debug key, see if it work.

EDIT: tested and working on android 11
[OnePlus 9 Pro] warangekar:
Okay
[OnePlus 9 Pro] JohnTheFarm3r:
You can't install the APK on non-OOS ROMs. It needs to be ported (modified) in order to work on non-stock ROMs. And no, there is no ported version of it.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] Oneplus#:
What? Is not true at all, I tried this apk and I've successfully installed it on a Samsung....android 11 stock wiith one ui core
[OnePlus 9 Pro] JohnTheFarm3r:
I'm talking about OnePlus phones, try checking next time in what Sub-Forum you're in.

Oh, wait, and it must be fun having a non-functional camera installed into your phone. khm khm
[OnePlus 9 Pro] Oneplus#:
- First, he have a one plus 9 pro and lineage.

- Second your answer say that it can't be installed on non oos-rom ... so not right.

- Third Maybe will be not good, maybe on some phone will crash but the apk definitely install itself because it was only missing a signature.

- And last I'm not using it, I've installed only to be sure that the apk install itself.

So "You can't install the APK on non-OOS ROMs." Is not right, it can be installed.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] madcapfrog:
Is your 4X or 8X slow motion videos working?

Used to; after recording slow-mo video

Go to Gallery > Albums > Camera and select a slow motion video.

Touch to play the video. During playback, touch the video to display the editing screen.

Drag the sliders to adjust the part you want to be played back in slow motion.

Other parts of the video will be played back at a normal speed.

When you are finished, go to > Save slow-mo file to save your edits.

Now;

Only option is the cut of length of video and save as 1X video.
[Google Pixel 6] nutzfreelance:
im rooted. and for some reason yesterday i got a update (25 mb)available notification. and now it is bugging me every few hours to connect to wifi and update.

im not interested in new bugs and the april update has no benefit for me, so what system app is resposable for this and how do i , disable it, clear its cache and data. so it will go away?

maybe ill update in may, but it will be manually. or i will go to proton or some custom rom if google still does not fix dirty pipes by then
[Google Pixel 6] blackhawk:
Disable OTA updates... if rooted you have many apps to choose from to do it.

On my stock Samsung phones it's the first thing I disable.

Autostarts can be used to find it, and presumably kill it on a rooted device.
[Google Pixel 6] nutzfreelance:
that was the first this i did, and its still disabled in developer settings.. and i STILL got this notification
[Google Pixel 6] blackhawk:
If you have the option to clear the system cache try that. Try temporarily toggling Developer options off, sometimes it goes buggy.

Sometimes it's another system app doing it. Google play Services is always a menace...

From time to time I explore settings looking for things I missed... still finding stuff after over 2 years🤣

With notification issues I eventually track them down. I don't upgrade and rarely update in part because I don't want to go debugging all over again.
[Google Pixel 6] SomeRandomGuy:
From my experience on OnePlus, Google Services (e.g. play store and its system components) is used to push OTA updates. Sometimes you get this notification, sometimes you wake up to root being missing and a new, unwanted OS loaded.

Its a long jihad to get rid of all the Google stuff (and still have all your other apps work), but it can be done...
[Google Pixel 6] blackhawk:
On Samsung's firmware upgrades/updates come through these 2 apps.

View attachment 5616093

If the updates are coming through Playstore you can either disable Google play Services temporarily or use a firewall to block Playstore.

Has anyone had a problem of their Genie continuously wanting to switch off, and I mean really off so next time the HTC logo comes.

I also cannot press the on button quickly to put the screen off with phone on standby.

I constanly get a pop-up saing: Warning: Power will be turned off, and you may lose data if you have not saved them. Do you want to continue... YES NO

If I press YES it shuts down, if NO it continues like normal and about 5 minutes later comes again.

Has anyone had anything like this before? I am running WM6.1 Professional

- Use at your own risk.

Introduction:

This is the Official Lineage OS 19.1 thread for the Essential Phone.

Please follow the install instructions in your device's Wiki page linked below exactly.

mata - Official builds

mata - My unofficial with Google Apps/Pixel goodies included. Passes SafetyNet by default. OTA's roll roughly once a month. Support not guaranteed or implied.

If you don't follow these instructions, or use 3rd party add-ons (like Magisk) please don't expect support here.

Known Bugs:

Find any? Report them according to this guide.

Notes:

The only supported GApps package at the moment is MindTheGapps, linked on our Wiki page about gapps - GApps are included in my unofficial builds

Firmware is shipped in the ROM package for this device, so no need to worry about updating it on your own!

Kernel Source: https://github.com/LineageOS/android_kernel_essential_msm8998
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MuddyDog:
I have been running this build for 4 days (today is the 5th day), and it has been very stable & smooth... thanks Nolen and Lineage.

The one bug that I have encountered is: "Android System Intelligence keeps stopping". ASI used to be known as ‘Device Personalization Services’. It is used "to send updates for features like ‘Now Playing’, ‘Live Caption’"... etc.

MindTheGapps has been notified of this bug, so hopefully it will be taken care of.

In the mean time, I just disabled it Settings/Apps/All Apps and select Show System from the 3-dot menu.

The build has run happily without it.

Really grateful to Nolen, Lineage, and for other builds Tommaso
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] npjohnson:
I fixed this. Next build will be fine.

Appreciate this! will try this week. Which Essential factory image is recommended? 090 or 007, thanks in advance.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] npjohnson:
As per note in OP - firmware is shipping so it gets overwritten anyway.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] lasuazo:
Rom feels good so far, I second the previous reported bug with Android system intelligence, and I found a glitch as well on normal phone calls, was on a long call so placed my phone on speaker, tried returning to in ear and the other person could not hear and I noticed the phone app to lag for a bit. All else is looking awesome.

Cause it works here.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Angrydr0id:

Hey all! The final 19.1 unofficial are rolling right now.

From here on it will be 20 builds for these devices only when it comes to unofficials.

The device will continue receiving official 19.1 for some time, but 20 will launch soon enough, so get ready to migrate using the upgrade guides!

[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Tomoms:
You are probably forgetting to reboot to recovery immediately after flashing the LineageOS build. It seems dumb to be in the recovery and having to reboot in recovery mode again, but it is a crucial part of the installation process.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] malerocks:
There is a valid reason for rebooting to recovery. That is how phones with A/B partitions work. It's not a lineageos thing.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Tomoms:
I know this very well :) I am just saying that for a not very knowledgeable user, it might initially seem a silly thing, to be in the recovery and to have to reboot into it again. In fact, when I first got my PH-1, the first time I installed LineageOS I made exactly the same mistake.
