I'm coming from an Exynos Note 9 with a bixby button remapped to an ultra bright torch that works with screen off or on, I find it incredibly useful. I'm already losing a true notification led, I really don't want to give up my torch button. Does anybody know if button mapper works with the...

It's in post #2 under the changelog. Está en la publicación n. ° 2 en el registro de cambios.

Yeah, I agree with the other poster, this sounds like just a bit of bad luck and a dash of PEBKAC, You said ENCRYPTED but I'm going to assume you mean CORRUPTED. Honestly let's look at it this way.. You're asking the phone to do something it wasn't designed to do, you're unlocking the...

Mine says 2.1 and I'm running Rom 1.8 ETHB

Quite possibly.. Though if it comes down to a battle between an unlocked bootloader and Netflix, I'll choose bootloader. Honestly I don't even understand people using Netflix, most people smart enough to unlock a bootloader, put on a custom rom, root their phone, install Edxposed probably also...

Strange, almost sounds like a L1 Widevine licensing issue.. A lot (if not most) cheap Chinese tablets will only cast or play Netflix in SD because they don't pay the L1 licensing fee to Netflix that gives you HD or FHD. ---------- Post added at 12:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:35 PM...

Can I ask a stupid question that's probably obvious to a lot of people. This rom came with the stock kernel, I flashed WHITEWOLFS kernel because I fancied the idea of double tapping the screen to turn it on using Ex kernel manager. But I suffered a constant problem where the screen would become...

Your picture didn't work but did you do it this way. Download these manually and install them from inside Magisk https://github.com/RikkaApps/Riru/releases/download/v21.3/magisk-riru-v21.3.zip...

We're just going to have to accept that as Google becomes more security conscious as they're market share increased that they're going to start closing off all those little holes that made Android so exciting and open.. Unfortunately it's a side effect of owning 70+ % of the market :( The free...

Same thing for me, I've had to turn seconds on, occasionally you'll see it blink as the day/date vanishes and reappears, it never did it on Android 8.1. I've found the expand all notifications to be really unstable to the point of stopping the phone from booting since Samsung Touchwiz nougat I...

Ditto, my friends on stock Android just don't seem to understand how handy it is to have your power button turn into a torch, or long hold the home key to take a screenshot, long hold back to instantly kill the forground app. I'm on stock Samsung Android 10 so the quick settings gui changes...

Have you tried password or pattern to see if it's ONLY the pin that's failing, I use a pattern and it never fails.

Hahaha, not the safetynet I was referring to, I meant safety net as in "safety net like a tight rope walker uses", you know.. You do something root or xposed related on your phone and pfffffft.. Instant boot loop.. But not to worry.. You made a twrp image prior to trying whatever it is that sent...

I have a quick question I couldn't find an answer for in here. I've used Gravitybox for years and love it.. I don't use the ultimate notification or Advanced tuning but bought the unlocker to support the devs. I'm totally happy using Lightflow but as an experiment I thought I'd try the Ultimate...

I'll have to live without my TWRP safety net I think, because as I said, I tried 3.3.1.0 many time, I even went to great effort to do quick installs not even bothering to put in the wifi or Gmail during setup, then making a twrp backup. Restoring the boot resulted in permanent boot loop...

Which one does work. TWRP 3.3.1.0 or TWRP 3.4.0.0... They are BOTH on the official site. I've actually tried both many times ending in bootloops.. Sadly.

Ahhhhh, no, That's obviously the first place I looked. They have TWRP 3.3.1.0 & TWRP 2.4.0.0. I was told to use 3.3.1.1, now THAT TWRP I can't find.. I was hoping Alexis would point me in the direction I'm not looking in.

Actually, after actively looking, I can't find a TWRP 3.3.1.1 for the NOTE 9, not even an unofficial one :confused:

Thank you for replying, Who's TWRP 3.3.1.1 do you recommend I use, there's no official 3.3.1.1 so I'm assuming it's an unofficial. Mind you, I used 3.3.1.0 to install your rom as instructed. Haha :laugh: I can't say I'm dying to try it out, I really don't want to start again, AGAIN (like for...

1) Since updating from Oreo 8.1 to Alexis rom 1.8 slightly debloated Android 10 ETHB, I've found TWRP backups no longer restore, I'll be left with a bootloop and have to start from scratch, I've tried TWRP 3.3.1.0, TWRP 3.4.0.0, Yarpiins patched TWRP 3.3.1.0.. All result in a boot loop, so I'm...

Haptic feedback. Has anybody noticed that the haptic feedback in these custom roms be it aosp, Los based is totally different to the stock roms. I'm on Android 10 stock and I'd love love LOVE to use a custom rom like this, but I'm one of those people that needs haptip feedback when I type...

Sorry, I haven't been around in here for a while so pardon the stupid question, but I was under the impression that once we flashed PIE onto the s9/s9+/Note 9 that it updated the boot loaders to U2/U4 etc and you can't go back again to Oreo... Am I mistaken? I'd love to try Pie on my note but...

So it's based on Samsung Stock rom but lineage OS and the camera is as good as it is on the roms based on Samsung stock roms.

You implied there are stock roms based on AOSP, you said "APART", meaning apart from stock roms based on AOSP all other AOSP roms the camera is noticibly worse. Did you actually mean the camera is noticibly worse on any rom that's not a stock based rom.

Wait, what.. I'm confused.. There are stock based roms based on aosp :confused:

Ahhhh no, I'm not from the USA, and neither the S9 or the S9+ had been opened or activated prior to my purchase, they were both sealed in shrink wrap plastic.. What you described might need to be done to a phone used in the USA or China but not in the rest of the world... Also since I'm in...

Which OS, Pie, Oreo, which revision Are you running any of the YouTube add blockers via Magisk or anything

I had hoped to find a few extra settings might have worked such as removal of the brightness slider, expanded notifications. Also on the Note 9 running OREO 8.1, NAVIGATION KEY ACTIONS- LOCKSCREEN TORCH ON POWER LONG PRESS doesn't work, but BUTTON MAPPER maps the bixby button to a torch anyway.

SMH, sometimes I'm such an idjit :silly: ---------- Post added at 02:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:09 PM ---------- 24 hours with stock kernel is up, identical results.. Also exactly 30% battery used... So the dt2w didn't have any noticeable battery usage. I used ex kernel manager...

ianmacd asked me to try out A PRETTY GOOD KERNEL which I've installed over Alexndr's Oreo BLR3 on my S9+ which is no longer my daily phone, I've had no issues with WiFi or Bluetooth. I'm currently testing the DOUBLE TAP 2 WAKE battery usage since it's not a supported feature and would have to...

Methinks I'll be sticking to Oreo for a while yet. Stable, supported, familiar,compatible. It's the Windows 7 of Android :laugh:

Faffed up your urls I think mate

OK, let's make a quick TWRP backup and have a play. I'd be interested in what Gravitybox settings you play with, I've only found one single setting that crashes Oreo and that's the EXPAND ALL NOTIFICATIONS in the status bar tweaks. I don't see it as off topic, it's a conversation about his rom...

I've just swapped over to a Note 9 so my s9+ is sitting idle running BRL3, so I can quite easily test. What are the advantages of APK kernel, and have you tried it in conjunction with Gravitybox (that was where I always had the issues) ---------- Post added at 03:04 PM ---------- Previous post...

In the past I've always used Topjohnwu's own custom xposed installer 3.1.5 (pictured), then recently a new universal auto detecting version came out, however I found that a bit unstable.. Plus it installed 2 xposed apps with different icons and gave me a strange message about it not being...

Works great on my S9 and S9+ running OREO BRL3, but Sadly crashes the system UI on my Note 9 running OREO ARL3

Yes, it works fine with Magisk, it's default install is automatically rooted with Magisk and I've had zero issues with it. ---------- Post added at 10:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:48 AM ---------- Which one is it? ---------- Post added at 10:56 AM ---------- Previous post was...

Looks interesting, but of course no Gravitybox support yet. Skyolinhelper might work... It's good for those people that want to run their phone in a high DPI but hate how small the keyboard gets.. You can independently control the keyboard DPI.

Oreo is popular with Xposed Framework users and contrary to popular belief, Gravity box works great with the Samsung Experience. Probably the only two features I can't get working are HIDE BRIGHTNESS SLIDER and AUTO EXPANDED NOTIFICATIONS (This one particularly will cause your OS to crash if...

:laugh: Gaaah no, come on, I just finished setting up his latest Oreos on the S9, S9+ and Note 9.

Yes, that's right.. They can indeed access the pictures of my cat and any other files since TWRP supports MTP... However they can't access your OS with TWRP... Yes they can wipe it completely and start again without the phone being locked by the google ID and that's fine with me because once...

I'm not a spy, cia agent, Russian informant or even an agent of CONTROL, I'd HATE to have my data encrypted. I'm not a hacker either, but I am a computer technician and encryption is a PAIN IN THE ARSE and easily the best way to lose all your data. Just one thing goes wrong, just one freaking...

The latest /last Oreo he made is the same one he recommended for me.. I'm running it on both my S9 and S9+ but with Magisk.. You can put NOROOT at the end of the file name and it won't root it then you can use SUPERSU if you want >> G960FXXS2BRL3_DevBase_v6.0.zip << (Android 8.0, updated...

OK, well shiftr182 is absolutely correct. I got my Note 9 512 gig today (Sunday) via DHL, it came ridiculously fast. Though it was supposed to be brand new, the box had been opened and when I turned on the phone it booted directly to Android sans any account, not to the welcome to Android set...

Sure, I'll clarify in about 1 week when my Note 9 512 gig phone arrives. I'll try his way first, however what I stated about being ready is vitally important. Make sure you have everything you need on an SDCARD AND on a USB stick if you have an OTG adapter. You can't put any of it internally...

Naaah, I love a fresh start, there's nothing quite like a new install, smells like a babies head ;)

Thanks very much, It won't matter that Rom is an S2 and I'm running your BRI3 which is a U2 (I plan on doing a complete wipe)

What's the last Oreo rom he made, I use xposed with this rom and there is no Xposed support for Pie. I'm running his BRI3 on both an S9 & S9+ and it's been rock solid. The only thing you can't do in Gravity box is expand all notifications, that'll cause Android to start flicking the screen...

Is there any way to make it not identify as QuickPic when being installed, honestly I have /had zero issues with the original Cheetah QuickPic and I'm hard up finding another gallery app that supports progressive directory structures. It's be great to have QuickPic installed as my standard go...

Anyway, honestly I accidentally updated my spare S9 to U2 forgetting it can't be rolled back and I had a little bit of trouble finding a firmware that ran fine with gravity box, but now I'm running a custom BRI3 rooted with magisk running gravity box where 99% of features work including lock...
