new CrDroid build from today has still no gapps included right?

Read OP. Gapps is included

 

[RealMooni]

It has Gapps included. Don't flash gapps. If you were on a build that didn't, you will have to clean install this. If you prefer no gapps, I can work on one for you

No, no with gapps included it's better for me lmao thanks for fast reply

Ok then that's all you need. It will prevent force close issues on updates, and faster update installs than installing through system updater. Just install ROM and your done unless you want root then reboot apply magisk.

yes sir, thank you

Hi folks, I think this is common sense but someone sent me a personal message stating that I broke their phone because of my rom. They flashed my crdroid based rom, rebooted to recovery and then flashed my lineage based rom. NO!!!!!!!! I thought this was obvious but apparently not. You pick one and only flash the one version then reboot to system and your done unless you want root. Just clarifying this so no one else tries this. Apparently by my report, it causes a crash dump and you have to MSM back. This was user error. I test my builds before I publish them to prevent such things but if you don't follow instructions, things like this will happen. I have crash dumped my phone in the past but never published the build. And also, they both include mind the gapps minimal so do not flash gapps because that will cause problems also.

I'm having the same issue. At first I thought it was only on the lock screen but I noticed it most when i'm using a screen that is white.
still rocking with it tho

Must have something to do with the included gapps package. That's the only thing that changed from last build. I'll look into it.

Also having screen flickering. Additionally, having issues on boot with static screen. Same with recovery. I'm assuming the boot.img included in the build is messing something up on the phone.

Initially extracted boot, dtbo, and vendor boot, then flashed those. Gave me a static screen. Then went back to fastboot and flashed firmware flasher, formatted, then sideload 2/05 build. After stock oneplus boot image, screen is static until I lock screen, then unlock again.

The previous version had a boot screen issue, it appeared as if there was a problem with the Lcd and the screen would flicker. If new build doesn't, then its fixed?

Thank you so much for this rom, it is really amazing.. I just have a question, what would be the steps to take to flash magisk? Do I need TWRP or can it be done with the current recovery? If so, what would also be the correct way of flashing TWRP?

Thanks again

You can use the a12/a13 twrp located on other thread. You can also use custom recovery also if you want. With twrp, you would boot twrp first.
fastboot boot twrp.img
(or whatever the name of the twrp file is.)
When you enter twrp, you would select install current twrp if you want to keep it permanently. With my crDroid version with gapps, you can put magisk.apk on your phone and install it with twrp. On my lineage version with gapps, you can't install it through twrp, you will need to either sideload it with twrp or custom recovery. What I think is easier to install twrp permanently is to sideload magisk in custom recovery and then use the twrp.zip file from that thread and install it as a magisk module to install twrp. That will also install twrp. Then you can install magisk again through twrp to have both root and twrp.

Perfect!!! Thank you so much, I thought that was the way of doing it but it is my first time using this ROM and I just didn't wanna screw it up, I appreciate your prompt answer and the hard work you've put to make this awesome ROM, I love it. Oh one last question, is there any way of enabling the seconds on the status bar?

Yes, settings, crDroid settings, clock & date

Alright so everything was fine until I installed a LP modded version of Play Store... Now I broke the play store, any suggestions on how to get it back to working?

I can't and won't provide support for illegal software which lucky patcher is to get it working. That also goes for custom kernels, which is the case for most developers anyway. My only fix is to do a clean install because dirty flashing I can guarantee will not fix the problem.

I appreciate the answer, I uninstalled LP and reinstalled a regular playstore apk, it still won't work, so there's no way of flashing gapps to make it work without having to do a clean install?
