Ok This rom is now better then stock. Hands down. IDK what you did to the Bluetooth but it now connects faster on this phone over my fold 3. Shocking to me none the less. I am having one issue. When I reboot it sometimes fails it seems and will go from the google logo being all animated, back to the just bootsceen logo and proceeds to boot normal. The flash was a full flash when the OS was installed , and have yet to try a factory reset see if the issue goes away. Thanks again!

Just faced another issue, I just found the video will freeze after few seconds of playing youtube video, but the sound still goes on, did anyone face the same problem?

Which type of youtube , app or on Chrome webpage, and what video it is (link pls), and what resolution (4k hdr?)
the YouTube app download from google play store also chrome webpage, all kind of videos (tried 720p, 480p, 1080p, 2k... didn't try hdr), probably because my razer have been left behind for quite a time. And I remember the android version is 8 before flashing PE13.

Then try clean flash to stock 9 then flash PE, can't confirm that issue, both on webpage and app

Here's my OCD update process. It's probably redundant and unnecessary, but this method always works for me without any issues or errors.

- Prepare -
01. [Razer] Download Recovery.img and patch with Magisk
02. [PC] Download rom.zip and Magisk.apk to adb folder
03. [PC] Copy Patched.img from Razer to PC adb folder
04. [PC] cmd "adb devices" and verify serial#
05. [PC] cmd "adb reboot bootloader"

- Update boot/recovery on slot a -
06. [PC] cmd "fastboot devices" and verify serial
07. [PC] cmd "fastboot getvar current-slot" (a)
08. [PC] cmd "fastboot flash boot Patched.img"
09. [PC] cmd "fastboot --set-active=b"
10. [PC] cmd "fastboot reboot bootloader"

- Update boot/recovery on slot b -
11. [PC] cmd "fastboot devices" and verify serial
12. [PC] cmd "fastboot getvar current-slot" (b)
13. [PC] cmd "fastboot flash boot Patched.img"
14. [PC] cmd "fastboot --set-active=a"
15. [PC] cmd "fastboot reboot bootloader"

- Update/install ROM on slot a -
16. [Razer] enter recovery and apply update from adb
17. [PC] cmd "adb sideload rom.zip"
18. [PC] cmd "adb sideload Magisk.apk"
19. [PC] cmd "adb reboot bootloader"
20. [PC] cmd "fastboot --set-active=b" and reboot bootloader

- Update/install ROM on slot b -
21. [Razer] enter recovery and apply update from adb
22. [PC] cmd "adb sideload rom.zip"
23. [PC] cmd "adb sideload Magisk.apk"
24. [PC] cmd "adb reboot bootloader"
25. [PC] cmd "fastboot --set-active=a" and reboot bootloader

Unfortunately despite it being one of the fixes mentioned, I'm still experiencing major lag spikes on the home and app switcher screens, already did a system format and clean flash and have I am running unrooted to not interfere with anything.

Try Nova Launcher 7, 0% battery drain, fast and highly tweakable.

I am facing a error that I did on Pixel Experience 12 as well. I have tried dirty flashing and I have tried factory reset. The issue persists with and without root. I cannot turn off RTT mode on my phone. Phone app shows that RTT is turned off but still during the calls RTT mode gets enabled. I tried switching to a different dialing app as well and issue persists. This causes the callers to get muted when they call (iPhone primarily) but it shows RTT to all callers. Is there a way to fix this? Any way I could share logs etc to help?

I tried to access the settings via dialer (and a 3rd party app, Network), *#*#3282#*#* but it is missing code and won't open. I'm unable to change any radio settings related to the LTE modem.

    FAQ:
    1. Verizon carrier out of service
    Here is step to solve

    2. Can you update GPU OpenGL and Vulkan driver?
    NO. Cause Razer used a modified a630 gpu firmware, Qualcomm generic new gl and vulkan can't compat with it. The only hope is Razer get revived and update stock rom so we can take it.

    3. Can you fix resolution switch
    NO. Razer kernel switch painful. Tried lot's of times and the only way to use 1080 is kill 2k and set 1080 as only one, same as the only 2k now
