Do a clean flash

 

[theeffinggamer]

Cannot set a fingerprint lock for my work profile. Any solutions?

 

[Spieva82]

Hello after updating Redmi Note 8T no internet
evolution_ginkgo-ota-tq3a.230605.012-06280800-unsigned
the same problem
evolution_ginkgo-ota-tq3a.230605.012-06212124-unsigned

 

[kamillo1009]

Hello, new firmware is totally the best! I have only one bug ... I can't connect with wifi WPA 3... It is working maybe two minutes and disconnect. Also this one wifi can't be remembered. Rest wifi with WPA2 is working great. I have tried wipe cache/dalvik but without any success. Can you help me? It is only one problem, rest it is totally best

 

[gjongbloed]

I'm using a Redmi Note 8T (willow). Today, I have installed EvolutionX. For that purpose, I'm using an 32 GB SD-card, with evolution_ginkgo-ota-tq3a.230605.012-06280800-unsigned.zip file on that card. As recovery, I'm using twrp-3.7.0_12-1-willow-TeamWin.img. Installation with a 'clean flash', i.e. after a normal wipe caches/Dalvik and a 'format data'. Installation and subsequent connecting to WiFi, preparing the phone via Google back-up etc. All went well; have setup the phone to my preferences and now everything works fine. Superb ROM!
Initially, I experienced problems with Smart Lock - Trusted location, but after reinstallation, these problems are over.

 

[Tejas_Singh]

Is it better than Arrow?

Both have their own use case!

any A12.1, whteher twrp official or ofox unofficial by me both supports decryption

 

[Tejas_Singh]

what info you need

Do you have any informations after checking

I am facing issues with the lockscreen , when I lock the phone, the screen wont turn on, any one know this issue

normally locking the phone means putting off the screen right?

 

[frankkips]

normally locking the phone means putting off the screen right?

Any kind of pre rooting is not done by default, so if you had anything like magisk it will get overriden after dirty flash due the normal boot.img replaces the patched one you had. So you have to reinstall magisk after drity or a clean flash

Yes, like normally just pressing the power button once - to lock the phone. I have clean flashed with multiple Roms and I still get the same issue

 

[Tejas_Singh]

Cannot set a fingerprint lock for my work profile. Any solutions?

did you forcefully delete SecurityHub Application?

 

[theeffinggamer]

did you forcefully delete SecurityHub Application?

No i did not. Although it is interesting because if i use thirdparty settings app that shows hidden settings then i can reach to the fingerprint setup interface but as i scan my finger it keeps scanning until the last scan, after the last scan it errors out. I have also tried removing my fingerprint from my main profile. Then it sets up for my work profile but then i cannot add it to my lock screen as i encounter same failed error.

hello, @Tejas_Singh, it's Chris, I have a little problem with some sensors, see the ss and sensors with red spot, Joey told me it was about device tree, Could you watch this please ?
