    Post [ROM][9][Pie][jfltexx][UNOFFICIAL] crDroid 5.11 (2/8/2020)

    Not quite, I use smartpack kernel manager and left it on gaming. That is drain due to cpu running at full speed! On balanced much better..... I went gapps free before micro g was a thing and it is a noticeable difference in both responsiveness and battery, but I've not got time to bugger about...

    Mine stops charging on gaming too, and often have to reboot to regain mobile network access. Using guest mode for kids if it may be relevant? Power consumption is worse, my kids do YouTube on guest and 100% to zero has halved over 8.1 (and worse than earlier pie too). Subjective and no logs but...

    Post [OTA][OFFICIAL][PIE] CrDroid Android 5.12 [04.06.20]

    The bugs described are entirely DUE TO DIRTY FLASHING THE ROM OVER LINEAGE! Because it's the same base, does not make it compatible. System ui crashes and settings issues are due to the inherent differences in the roms you're flashing. Do a clean install, stop being lazy, and it will work. I've...

    "EdXposed is currently in Beta stage which means it may still have many issues. Experience can vary across devices/OSes significantly." This.... And if selinux is solvable please post the solution and don't try to provoke a confrontation. Many thanks.

    Post [GUIDE] [ROOT] Install a Linux OS alongside almost any Android device [DECEMBER 2017]

    Try right clicking in Thunar and opening a root-privileged window ("open root Thunar here" iirc). It won't work. There is a way to set a root password I believe to allow this functionality using the passwd command, not sure of usage though. If you want to manipulate system files of install apps...

    Post [GUIDE] [ROOT] Install a Linux OS alongside almost any Android device [DECEMBER 2017]

    May depend on the application, if it requires root to run (synaptic for instance) then it must be started from the command line, ie. "sudo synaptic" will start synaptic, but running it from the applications menu will not.

    Having a similar problem here, but not identical. My touch will randomly freeze up every so often, but a screen off/on sorts it out. I have posted a logcat of this a few pages back but had no advice on the issue, don't have the ability to interpret the logcat myself! ?️?️

    Should I expect error 7? Never happened with previous builds. Seems a bit of a pain to flash official recovery, then presumably reflash twrp?

    Post [ROM][UNOFFICIAL][OREO] LineageOS 15.1 for Wileyfox Swift 2/Plus/X

    That screen is there because you unlocked the bootloader, it's nothing to do with recovery. The easiest way to get root is to boot twrp, not flash it. Can't remember the exact commands but once twrp is booted it can be used to flash magisk. Then simply reboot system and use flashify to...

    The only sure way I believe is to relock the bootloader, there is some discussion on a Motorola forum to replace the background with an image that "covers" the text. It is actually still there but barely visible. It involves fastboot flashing of a certain partition, but I don't know if it is...

    I dirty flashed crDroid, from the same source as lineage, no issues. Wipe cache and dalvik then flash the zip. I didn't have to reflash gapps, everything worked as before, even fingerprints were still saved. Obviously make a nandroid backup if there's room on your Sd card (mine ran to 8gb+!!).

    OK. Didn't bother flashing boot, stuck with vm03 kernel, sound is fine so far. Bluetooth file transfer now works. Music app still crashes, Sony magisk still works so no worries, still a bug though. That's it for now I think, phone's only been up for an hour or so, will report any further...

    Thanks for the reply, sound works fine for me with the stock kernel, Bluetooth speaker works too, just music player won't open, says "no app can perform this action". Sony music magisk module works though. Strange. Of course I understand the language issue, I will check 4pda more often. Going...

    AFAIK this is from the same source as lineage by vm03, so updates should correspond. Last things on lineage thread indicated issues with vm03 kernel, which is now in this ROM. Just would like some communication with the dev, pointed out 2 issues now but no response, will gladly supply a logcat...

    Been running this for 3 days now, only issue is with magisk xposed not working. The framework will install but it warns of not being compatible with arm64 something or other. On reboot got force closes on a variety of apps and had to remove the framework to rectify it.

    No mate, use twrp as "allow modifications", then mount system. Shouldn't be necessary really but best to ensure it is actually mounted, twrp can be fickle at times I've found!

    I've recently stumbled upon the USB type-C spec and USB to rgb is supported apparently. Swift 2 is not listed on MHL compatibility list however. Has anyone tried MHL to TV at all(rgb or HDMI)?
