Thank you for not only this rom but also the custom website!

What does ' Error applying update:15 ( ErrorCode:kNewRootfsVerificationError )' mean? I don't know how to solve it.

I would appreciate some help. I took a FI X4 and installed Arrow with no issues. Then I tried to re-install with gapps and things went south. Maybe I'm being bitten by the A/B thing.

My current state:
SCENARIO 1
* Clean install Stock FI for X4 works
* Then "copy partitions" and reboot to System fails and reboots to Recovery. <-- Not sure why this happens
SCENARIO 2
* Clean install Stock FI again -- boots and works fine
* fastboot boot twrp, wipe, install Arrow -- install gives no errors
* Reboot to system results in endless Arrow boot animation. I've waited for a couple of hours, so it's not a matter of time.

Suggestions on what I can try? Is "copy partitions" really necessary? (I've put Lineage on two other X4's without using 'copy partitions' -- I didn't even know about it at the time.)

Clean flash stock firmware
Then flash twrp format in f2fs and reboot
Boot to twrp and Flash copy partition and take persist efs backup
Then wipe data system dalvik
Flash rom+ twrp zip
Reboot recovery and flash magisk if you want...(you dont need to flash gapps BECAUSE it is included in rom)
Just reboot to system

Have look on this website for issue https://motox4custom.jimdofree.com/instructions/install-a-custom-rom/

Trouble installing

EDIT: Got it working!

I gave up waiting for the animation. Switched /data's file system to e2fs, formatted, re-installed Arrow+TWRP and badaboom! Arrow started up successfully. I think I was missing the "format /data" step after switching its fs.

Thank you

Thanks for the quick help and reference. I'm not sure if it worked yet or not... It's been running the Arrow boot animation for 20 minutes so far. I'll report back.

Questions:
  1. Is TWRP's warning of "No OS Installed" something I can ignore? (see attached photo)
  2. Why do you recommend a backup of efs and persist? I don't see it used later.
  3. I did not switch /data to f2fs this time because it completely failed (Stock wouldn't boot up). Is f2fs required?
  4. How long should I wait while the boot animation runs before giving up?
  5. Can I capture a log that would be helpful troubleshooting what's going on with the boot?

Here's what I did:

  1. Clean flash stock firmware (XT1900-1_PAYTON_FI_9.0_PPWS29.69-39-6-2_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip)
  2. Reboot to "Get Started" screen - SUCCESS
  3. Boot to twrp
  4. Flash copy partition
  5. Reboot to "Get Started" screen (confirm all is still working) - SUCCESS
  6. Make backup of persist and efs
  7. Wipe data, system, dalvik
  8. Flash Arrow (did not flash magisk or gapps) File: Arrow-v10.0-payton-UNOFFICIAL-20200119-VANILLA.zip
  9. Flash twrp installer (zip)
  10. Reboot to system --
  11. - twrp warned of "no os installed"
  12. - arrow boot animation

What does ' Error applying update:15 ( ErrorCode:kNewRootfsVerificationError )' mean?

I tried both TWRP-payton-3.3.1-Syber-v2.2_11-02 and official twrp

step 1/2...
step 2/2...
Error applying update:15 ( ErrorCode:kNewRootfsVerificationError )

Update -- I went back to stock and now can't get any mobile signal. No voice, no 2G; it's dead. The SIM works fine in my other (Lineage) X4. Looks like bad hardware.

----- end of update -----

Hi all. I'm taking my Arrow-powered new-to-me X4 out today for the first time and just realized it's not getting 4G. In fact, it's all the way back to Edge. My network is set to Global and I'm on T-Mobile USA.

Is LTE working for others here?

I can switch to stock later to check the hardware on this device but that will take some time.

Doesn't work for me, I do even get 3G, only phone calls.

Sorry to hear.

I acquired a different X4 and installed Arrow without incident and I'm getting 4G on T-Mobile USA fine now. Maybe you also have bad hardware? Does LTE work on your phone with different firmware?

How does the Updater work?

In Settings, I can search for "update" and see "System updates" in the search results. Tapping on that brings up the System menu but there is no "System updates" listed.

I flashed 20200119 a couple of days ago and I thought it's been updated since then.

    I got the no os message too. I just rebooted and it loaded. As long as msg says successful after flashing, I assume it's safe to reboot. Worked for me.

    Can anyone confirm whether Voice Match (OK Google) is working in this ROM? It appears that it might be causing mic issues in other Android 10 ROMs. Thanks!

    Working fine

    Ah, yes i do. "com.android.phone keeps stopping"

    I haven't noticed this, but I generally have WiFi enabled so that may be why. I'll try that later when I have more time.

    I have not noticed this. Again, maybe it's because I have WiFi on most of the time.
    I have also encountered this error "com.android.phone" stopping.
    Anyone got solutions? Keep Update.
