Thanks
Sorry if I reply to you guys quite late, I didn't check this thread for about 2 years. You guys probably don't even use this ROM anymore but well there we go.
This issue actually traces back to a simple CSC line (well, probably my fault...). Locate to /system/omc/customcsc_v25.xml and remove the following line:
This should restore the default in-call volumes
This issue actually traces back to a simple CSC line (well, probably my fault...). Locate to /system/omc/customcsc_v25.xml and remove the following line:
Code:
<CscFeature_Audio_ConfigCallVolumeSteps>dummy</CscFeature_Audio_ConfigCallVolumeSteps>This should restore the default in-call volumes
I can't really remember the method to remove the private key lock. iirc you have to locate to /data/system and remove one or two files ending with *.key. The last resort would be, as @drnightshadow metioned already, a factory reset.

The ROM is EOL (End Of Life) since 4-5 years and won't receive any further updates.wow thanks for the response.I still have the rom working on my phone.I want to ask if you have an update for me.The phon lags and i cant open google map and whatsapp same time.i will exprience black screen.
If you face any lags, blackscreens or the device doesn't response due to unknown reasons constantly then it may be possible that Android Zygote didn't optimize the (system-) apps installed on your device. Thus running your apps without optimized images which causes the symptoms stated before. This usually happens (since?) Android 7 if the dalvik-cache and cache were wiped in Recovery before (probably a bug in Android I guess).
To fix this boot into TWRP Recovery, locate to Advanced > File Manager > data > property > persist.sys.zygote.early > Delete. After that just reboot to system. This will force Android to reoptimze your apps which could take a while, similar like after an OTA update.

F.A.Q
Q: How to root it?
A: Grab Magisk from here.
Q: Splash screen gets more and more greenish when I try to boot. Is that normal?

A: Download GPS Test app from Google play, run it, go outside and wait 10 minutes.
Q: Do I have to clean flash when there is a new update?
