I had been looking for a non-Magisk way of getting Bromite WebView onto some of my ROMs after the package name change. I just tried this on a crDroid Oreo ROM on a Moto G5s Plus. Method 1 didn't work. Flashed without error but apk didn't get placed. Method 2 worked out great. Bromite WebView...

After updating to the latest build, microG has lost SMS and background location permissions. Tried to force them on using App Manager but they revert. Quite a few things came down from OOS in this build and wonder if latest security patches are the reason. Just want to confirm if it's just a me...

Actually, the updates do continue to be offered via F-Droid BUT going by the description, it may now be just the vanilla Chromium version. [screenshot] Given that none of my older ROMs run Magisk (a root method I never cared for) I'll just continue on with the provided updates. On newer Android...

Yeah, I'm kind of bummed out. I mentioned it works great on crDroid but when I went to CarbonROM I had no such luck. Despite the inclusion of the permissions file, App Manager shows that some of the necessary permissions have been "revoked". Oh how I dislike modern Android. 😑

I see there is a new build available. I've seen the "technical" changelog but wondering about generic changes. Anything that would warrant considering flashing.

Just wanted to say, very nice recovery. Working fine on my KB2007 kona (T-Mobile, switched to Euro firmware and thus, kebab). Was on crDroid, decided to go back to Carbon, going back to stock first. OrangeFox failed to flash the OOS OTA zip for some reason. Used regular TWRP to flash it. After...

Ah, yes. That is exactly what's going on. Once I removed all the USB drive bookmarks it was as you said. One of the bookmarks was from when using the OTG driver (usb://...). As soon as I removed that one it triggered Storage Settings immediately.

Thought it was just me. Also annoyed as heck by this behavior. I have MiXplorer on several devices and Android versions (7, 9, 11) and found the annoying behavior only happens on my OnePlus 8T device (currently running crDroid Android 11). Doesn't seem to be an Android version issue as this...

I was missing OmniSwitch when I finally went custom ROM on my OnePlus 8T. In the past crDroid has always had OmniSwitch but I guess things have changed since "my old days". I tried the various items attached by ThatDamnFrog. The standalone apks didn't work. The flashable zip...

Nothing shows up under my /sdcard either (A11) but that's just a minor inconvenience. Navigate out to /data/media/0/ and everything is there, including zips I adb pushed to /sdcard/. Not sure why sdcard shows empty. Could be a mount issue or something(??).

crDroidAndroid. Termux Expert Launcher. Unexpected Keyboard (swipes instead of long presses for extra characters).

LOL. I have to let go of the old ways. I think I may have found what kept the phone awake but I'll have to reproduce the setup. This last 10 hour idle period had almost no drain. Deep sleep like a baby. BBS still running just so i could check the summary. 😏

The kernel manager, SmartPack, isn't being used for anything. Forgot i said no tweaks? No tweaks, no changes, no nothing. If you're saying just having them installed causes problems that seems odd. Either way it's uninstalled. Also, it wasn't the kernel manager showing the cores. It was because...

Hmm. No GApps, just microG with no Google features turned on. Running the same mostly FOSS apps I had with OOS. No battery optimizers other than Android itself. Kernel manager used only when trying to figure out the little cores at 100% thing, otherwise no tweaking. Won't let me change anything...

Question. Battery life is quite bad. It was in the 80s before I went to work (I take it with me though it's not my daily driver). Work was busy so I didn't check it until after work. It was dead. Not the first time. It seems my little cores 1-4 are at 100% all the time. Is that normal? Min and...

1. Ah cool. 2. Yes, of course. Always flashed to both slots as per the OP instructions. I told myself I would never use Android higher than Oreo or Pie and I wind up with an A11 device. Ugh. Getting used to new ways of doing things.

Excuse the late reply. No, not too versed on this device really. I searched for that error and got a lot of hits but didn't have the time to read up. Sorry.

Okay, just updated to 15.2. Still a problem with the Jaguar recovery. Using the new one posted along with build 15.2. In the console (Windows 7), as before, it reaches I think 47% and fails. Error on the phone says 7 (ErrorCode::kInstallDevice OpenError). Flashed Lineage recovery and tried...

I just installed Jaguar and also had the same issue with Jaguar recovery. Seems there's a signature verification issue (among another). With the Lineage recovery one gets prompted to ignore the issue and continue on. I don't thing the jaguar recovery does that. Either way, all good and finally I...

I have the T-Mobile variant. There's more support and options available so don't be discouraged. Normally, you have to be SIM unlocked before you can do anything else, like bootloader unlocking. If the phone is being paid for or financed and you haven't been a long time customer you may or may...

OnePlus 8TTMO. Nova Launcher. Outline icon pack. Weather widget from Chroma icon pack. Google apps disabled, replaced by mostly FOSS alternatives.

You don't say which version of the zip you tried, arm or arm64. Maybe try the installer below. It does a good job of detecting architecture, root method, etc. https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3697756 Xposed Framework [UNITY] Moto G5 Plus XT1687, halogenOS ROM, microG...

crazy4jack, so I checked it out on my Tipsy Nougat ROM. For s&g I first tried Lawnchair 1.2.1 and then 2.0-2506. As you described, unthemed icons are not masked with KasatMata. Sticking with the black & white I tried Whicons. Same thing, no masking. I only had two icon packs before, LimeLine...

Ah, I have that icon pack installed on a couple of ROMs. Cool. Will see how I fare. Moto G5 Plus XT1687, Tipsy ROM v6.8, NanoDroid, MultiROM, XDA Legacy

Ah, yes. I don't run Q so that bit didn't register in my dusty brain. Mentioned here... https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=80535933 I will assume the standalone webview installer is also updated so that might work. Moto G5 Plus XT1687, Tipsy ROM v6.8, NanoDroid, MultiROM, XDA...

crazy4jack, I'd like to check it out but you still haven't mentioned the name of the icon pack. Moto G5S Plus XT1806, Validus 8.1.0, microG-NanoDroid, MultiROM, XDA Legacy

Care to elaborate? ROM, installation method(s), etc. No information included for folks to comment on. Moto G5S Plus XT1806, Validus 8.1.0, microG-NanoDroid, MultiROM, XDA Legacy

Does the icon pack have masking? If not then that's the result you'll usually get, regardless of launcher. Or maybe it doesn't quite support the launcher. What's the name of the pack? Moto G5s Plus XT1806, OmniROM 8.1.0, NanoDroid, MultiROM, XDA Legacy

Agreed. Most of my ROMs are microG-based. Haven't seen much though. There's one item on F-Droid but it only supports Estonian out-of-the-box. To get other languages working seems quite involved. Kõnele (Speech-to-text provider) - https://f-droid.org/app/ee.ioc.phon.android.speak Also spelled...

Greetings all. On my ASUS Zenwatch 2 sparrow I noticed something. I still have Wear OS on the watch so I'm dual booting. If I fastboot boot AsteroidOS I have Bluetooth. When I boot via the TWRP method (boot image backed up and restored when I need it) Bluetooth is off and can't be turned on via...

A dirty flash of your ROM _should_ fix that up. Wipe system, dalvik, and cache. Then flash ROM. You won't lose any data. By the by, you said you have Lineage 16. No signature spoofing on that ROM so microG wouldn't have worked out too well anyway. Moto G5s Plus XT1806, OmniROM 8.1.0...

Squeeto, not sure but I believe Google App/Search handles that function. If that is the case then you'll have to add it. Also, IIRC, Google App should be a system app for full functionality. It's included in the nano package. Moto G5 Plus XT1687, Desolation ROM v0.3, MultiROM, XDA Legacy

Why are you patching the Play Store? What is it that you are trying to do? Either way I'm quite sure it's outside the scope of this thread. ZTE Axon 7 A2017U, AOKP 7.1.2 ROM, Radioactive v2.4 Kernel, microG (NoGapps), Multiboot, XDA Legacy

Search the thread for pie. Something you should do first before asking. [emoji6] ZTE Axon 7 A2017U, AOKP 7.1.2 ROM, Radioactive v2.4 Kernel, microG (NoGapps), Multiboot, XDA Legacy

That's not entirely true. It has more to do with SElinux Enforce vs Permissive in some cases. On my Moto G5s Plus the Oreo ROMs I use are permissive by default. I have system mode SU on a few of them (I multiboot). Even on other devices running older Android, Marshmallow and Nougat f.i, system...

No. The Bromite browser is a separate item unrelated to the webview. Meaning it doesn't use the webview to render pages. Bromite/Chrome/Chromium, and related render pages internally. Essential PH-1, /e/OS 0.7-n ROM, microG (NoGapps), XDA Legacy

microG is a replacement for gservices (core). As far as gapps go, not all of them work well since microG isn't a 100% replacement. Not all Google functions and features are available. ZTE Axon 7 A2017U, AOKP 7.1.2 ROM, Radioactive v2.4 Kernel, microG (NoGapps), Multiboot, XDA Legacy

Hmm, no one read a couple of posts back? Might be the reason. Essential PH-1, /e/OS 0.7-n ROM, microG (NoGapps), XDA Legacy

mozdem, since Oreo, maybe Nougat, I don't ever restore apps between Android versions. Usually winds up with issues similar to what you describe. May have something to do with enhanced security of recent Androids. Best bet is to install the apps normally and just restore the data. That usually...

In general, yes. If the signatures aren't different or changed. Add the microG repo and it should show updates. https://microg.org/fdroid/repo I believe. ZTE Axon 7 A2017U, Candy7 v5.2 ROM, Google free - no microG, MultiROM, XDA Legacy

Oh, I thought you meant Fulmics as a secondary. Fulmics as a primary "should" have no affect. It should flash and work normally. I'm not exactly sure what you're doing. Can you tell us what items you're using. MultiROM-TWRP 3.2.x or Artx twrp should work fine for flashing Fulmics. I have a...

Oops. Mis-post. Deleted.

Yes, it should. I've had Fulmics as a secondary in the past on my D851. Currently Clean ROM is in use (as far as stock-based goes). Moto G5S Plus XT1806, balanceOS 2.0, MultiROM, XDA Legacy

Gurkirat_Singh, although not related to the "No such file or directory" issue shown in your logs, I wanted to point out something about Vanced YouTube. Going by the filename you mentioned earlier and in the log, it seems you have the root version of Vanced. To my knowledge and experience that is...

Adrian1983xda, I assume you are on an OEM stock ROM. If so then you more than likely cannot use Bromite webview as these ROMs seem to support only Google's products. More info here... https://github.com/bromite/bromite/wiki/Installing-SystemWebView Since you are not rooted you cannot try...

For the first, the NanoDroid package includes the Google sync adapters (calendar, contacts) as an option. SMS is SMS. Tied to your phone number normally. But the desire to bring over all the other Google stuff is, well, depends. Chrome should work I guess. Given that microG is not 100%...

Yeah, but at the moment the blocking of home screen ads is labeled experimental in the settings. Also mentioned earlier. In the past, not having ads before videos is all that really mattered. These home screen ads are a _fairly_ recent annoyance. I finally got those too and they're not related...

For the first time I get ads on the home screen. Ads that try to hook me up with women. LOL. giosaxda, you say that Vanced is not supposed to have ads but the one thing folks seem to forget is that the blocking of Home ads is labeled Experimental. That word alone means no guarantees. As long as...

Using the new Translucent with the half transparency. Lookin' good here on this "old" balanceOS Oreo. Will try out the black theme later on another ROM that is blacked out. Moto G5S Plus XT1806, balanceOS 2.0, MultiROM, XDA Legacy
