Damm! That was fast! Just getting used to Oreo. I may try it soon, but will download to pc, and put it in my arrows folder. Got to get the nerve.

 

[BobbyCurry]

Finally!!! Thank you so much!

Haven't seen this coming. Thanks a ton.

Everything's near perfect. As of now

-> Fingerprint doesn't detect while registering, even after a couple reboots

-> System UI Restarts

-> Performance while opening an App is laggy, while IN APP performance is butter smooth

-> Default launcher always reverts back to Quickstep launcher provided (after setting another launcher to default) when pressing recents button

(I get it why. It's with the Android PIE Recents. Anywhere from the phone we can go to access the AppDrawer of Quickstep when we swipe up)

[Solved by making another launcher default in Settings]

-> Camera doesn't work. (#Cant connect to the ) (only Rear Camera)

Fingerprint doesn't detect
Trying to view the IMEI causes settings to crash
cant open camera
changing most of the options ( in this case status bar related ) causes the system ui to restart

I knew you were working on it, but at this point I figured you'd hold it back till Christmas Eve. Thanks for not waiting. Dirty flashed. Had to re-toggle some of my customization options and re-pair my Bluetooth devices, but otherwise it's running great. Would like to see smart bar navigation like in the Oreo build, but I figure either it'll show up in future builds, or I'll survive. It's not a big deal. A few bugs theming with substratum, and I don't know if it's an Arrow issue or a Pie issue, but either way it's certainly not your fault. Battery is noticeably better. It still discharges faster than it charges when I'm plugged into my car and running navigation, but it's tremendously improved over Oreo. Great work, and thank you so much for sharing.

Thank you for making Christmas come early. This is a very exciting time. I will dirty flash and give my experience in 24hrs.
Thanks for awesome work.

If someone needs Screenshots

Thanks a ton @coldhans

Which gapps did you use? I recommend pico because our /system doesn't have a lot of space. Larger gapps caused me to have similar crashes. If you want the Google Assistant or other Google apps, you can always download them from the Play Store.

Trying to view the IMEI causes settings to crash

How many SIMs do you have, and which slots are they inserted in?

Please grab a logcat after reproducing these issues! I haven't run into these bugs myself so I can't fix them without it.

In that case, can you grab logs during both of those crashes?

I would love to help; But unfortunately i had to revert to a stable backup because this phone is my daily driver and I do my job stuff with it

This is for the camera

Let me know if this works or should I root my device and then get the logs right

Sorry, no, that doesn't tell me anything

Sorry, no, that doesn't tell me anything

I'ld want to help with this.
Does rooting with Magisk v17 cause any issues?
I'ld root it so I can provide the logs needed.
