Attached patches.zip if for rom devs only

 

[celeron1]

Thats exactly what i was looking for before upgrading. Thanks a lot!

 

[haiha2001]

Just only one version for g8341 ? . DSDS can't use it ?

Sent from my Sony G8342 using XDA Labs

 

[boa05]

Hi, thanks for the amazing ROM! I've used your treble based ROM, but then switched to derf elot's los for more stability, now this is perfection!

If I may have a feature request: would it be possible to add an option to have the old Oreo style (vertical) recents menu?
Also I feel like nowadays most apps unfortunately need interNet (why capitalise the N btw) so can we have a switch for default state of the internet permission. It was a bit inconvenient to always go into settings and allow permission for every single app.

Sorry if I sound a bit greedy, your patches are already awesome!

 

[JimKatsanos]

Quick question... How stable is this LOS? Is it more stable than derf's rom?

 

[boa05]

Well it's stable enough for me, but if you rely heavily on gapps, then I don't recommend it. So for example Google classroom didn't work, had one app that couldn't enable push notifications and some firebase related crashes - stuff you'd expect from using microg. I had a few crashes at first but I think that's just because I didn't allow certain permissions. Since it's based on derf elot's build, I think it's mostly the same as if you'd have his build with microg and signature spoofing patches.

 

[boa05]

Found a bug with the boot animation being scaled wrongly, luckily bootup time is super fast.

 

[JimKatsanos]

Real quick question does love caption work on here? Also can I dirty flash it over my LOS17.1?

I'm now testing unified build method from Carbon, but can't get all FingerprintedPartitions_system equal ( @Myself5 https://github.com/derfelot/android_device_sony_poplar/blob/lineage-17.1/lineage_poplar.mk#L28 missing in CarbonRom process ?); also I'm not sure if it is crucial for microG integration, since safetyNet is still broken (?). @haiha I'll pm you when I'll upload a unified test-build.

The fingerprint is stored on /odm. As I dont touch the stock odm, the vaues are loaded and set via init_yoshino from there. Therefore theres no need to set them inside the device sources

 

[7hr08ik]

Woohoo. Just dirty flash over top?

 

[7hr08ik]

Dirty flash and she's running like a dream ?

 

[7hr08ik]

Few days now, and all is good. She seems smoother than before. I used to get the occasional lock up, in the launcher. But none recently.

Great work dude. Thank you for keeping my phone relevant ?

i tried to install this ROM after wiping everything (previous was Carbon rom - Android 10) with twrp 3.3.1-0, the twrp says UNABLE TO DECRYPT FBE DEVICE but it shows it installs the ROM. But when I restart the phone after flashing with TWRP I get continuos boot loop, I see the SONY LOGO but the device restarts to TWRP, I enter twrp again, wipe everything again and install lineage beta 17.1 but the same things happen, the same message UNABLE TO DECRYPT FBE DEVICE and boot loop.
Then I go and wipe everything and install Carbon ROM again, everything seems fine. Why I cannot install Lineage?

Update: it seems that twrp remembers the security options to unlock the screen from the previous ROM, even after wipping everything, including internal SD, I have a 4 points pattern. After I installed Carbon ROM again, I entered twrp again and wiped everything and the error mesage is no more (UNABLE TO DECRYPT FBE DEVICE). Then I tried to instal this ROM again but still no succes, I see SONY LOGO, the device cannot boot and enters TWRP again (and with the same error mesage before flashing UNABLE TO DECRYPT FBE DEVICE). Something is not quite wright.

Make sure to format data, and wipe everything except SD when you install. Not just flat over the top

That's what I did, multiple times. But with no result

 

[7hr08ik]

No idea then. Trying to think back.

So, for me the process was

TWRP - format data (type yes)
Reboot into recovery
Full wipe (slide across for data, cache etc)
Another reboot into recovery
Then install
But at end of install don't reboot phone.
Go back to TWRP main menu.
Shutdown
Power back on

Are you using derfelot latest twrp ?: https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=295816

The fingerprint is stored on /odm. As I dont touch the stock odm, the vaues are loaded and set via init_yoshino from there. Therefore theres no need to set them inside the device sources

@Myself5 , on Lineage, I also have system_fingerprint different and same as odm (checked via Build.getFingerprintedPartitions()) : any hint about possible downside effects with init_poplar.cpp modified, such as:

void target_load_properties()
{

    std::string model = GetProperty("ro.product.vendor.name", "");

[B]+    std::string fp = GetProperty("ro.bootimage.build.fingerprint", "");
+    property_override("ro.odm.build.fingerprint", fp.c_str());
+    property_override("ro.system.build.fingerprint", fp.c_str());[/B]

    if (model == "G8342") {
    ... ...

(btw, didn't follow 100 extreme value for swappiness value on both Lineage & Carbon : 25 instead ?)

Yes
