This is great. Seems to run well - but can't get it to play nice with Viper4Android.

No issues with viper4Android here.
Check if you've rooted properly?
Or maybe you are using a mod version of viper4Android.

Been using it for half a year and it's the best Android 13 rom I tried (not that there's many that are up to date)

I used the repackaged v4a from github. Clearly something went wrong here if it's working at your end. I'll try again later when I'm home as I'll need to install from scratch having reverted to A12. Guessing maybe I just needed to reboot again or something. Here's the version I used:

GitHub - programminghoch10/ViPER4AndroidRepackaged: A refined ViPER4Android installer.

A refined ViPER4Android installer. Contribute to programminghoch10/ViPER4AndroidRepackaged development by creating an account on GitHub.

I have to say the smooth responsiveness on these new A12/A13 ROM builds is surprising given how often A11 would lock up for me. Maybe my device just finally needed a reset idk.

droident · Nov 25, 2022

OK. Mystery solved. Turns out that Viper4Android does indeed work - it just needed an extra reboot.

So I flash it > reboot > v4a App appears on next boot but doesn't work > reboot again > v4a works.

Weird but makes sense. Sorry for the confusion.

I couldn't receive this kind of google login authorization on this rom "is it you trying to sign in". Device wasn't appearing in google account double verification. No problem in a13 elixir.
Also sadly no option 2g connectivity.

Rom itself seems smooth. ATM moved back to A10

Hello İ installed latest Spark OS gapps build on my a205f i loved the rom but it has a bug phone screen freezes cant close the screen no reaction to calls,notifications,holding down the power button the only solution is to wait for the battery drain it happened 2 times what can i do i guees this build is laggy

droident · Dec 12, 2022

This is possibly a long shot but any chance of modified files for higher quality audio on Bluetooth SBC (or AAC)? It used to be you could patch it in via Magisk but the module no longer works on newer android versions and if I'm correct the edits need to be made before a ROM is built. If you're able to, any chance of some experimental files for me to try out?

I think the values are in a2dp_sbc_encoder for SBC, a2dp_aac for AAC. A2DP_XXX_DEFAULT_BITRATE 000 where XXX is SBC or AAC and 000 is the bitrate in kbit/s.

Hi,
I installed this rom, until I see it I'm liking it, but the screen rotation doesn't work.
Any idea?
Thanks...

Hello everyone, just flashed this ROM on my Vince (coming from Elixir 3.3 - A13).

Since I use this phone to debug my apps, I need to connect Chrome DevTools to it.

What I've done so far:
- wiped everything
- installed Spark-13.3-Official-vince-20230105-gapps
- installed Magisk 25.2
- registered my Google account
- updated all apps (through Play Store)
- enabled Developer options, then USB debugging

Now, when I launch Chrome DevTools on PC, I can see the phone but the webpages list is empty; it also doesn't show any WebView instance (see the screenshot below).

Remote debug was working with Elixir 3.3 on the same phone and PC, so I suppose the difference is in some ROM setting... something to be changed here, but I'm out of ideas...

Does anyone have any suggestions about this?

First, make sure you have enabled auto rotate screen option. It is disabled by default.
If it's enabled send a screenshot from sensor test app (available in playstore). ROM doesn't have issues auto rotates screen.

Can you send logcat?
I am not using this feature. I will test this later.

Seems like you messed up persist
So flash persist.img via recovery (in persist partition) and reboot into system. Do not wipe anything.
