[ROM][Moto G5 Plus][android-11.0] ArrowOS 11.0 [OFFICIAL]

[daniml3]

Hey everyone!
ArrowOS for potter is coming back, one of the fellow CORE team member recently got potter on his hands and will support arrow-11.0 from where I left

https://review.arrowos.net/c/ArrowOS/arrow_infrastructure_devices/+/13972

 

[fix4all]

Yay!
Compass/magnetometer in version 10 did not work. Will that eventually be resolved in 11.0? Or any workarounds?

 

[artician]

"...I don't plan to release the device sources for 11..."

Does this essentially mean the project is closed-source? Can only privledged users review the code? Sorry if I'm misunderstanding.

ENCRYPTION does not work and results in bootloop (from the flashing A arrow logo). (i'm using Arrow-v11.0-potter-OFFICIAL-20210902-VANILLA).

You can get the phone running again if you go to recovery and format the internal storage. (Of course your storage is now blank and unencrypted).

I tried encrypting both without screenlock or pin (i.e. fresh install no setting changes), and then with screenlock/pin. Same result. If somebody has gotten encryption to work and I'm wrong or they know a trick please describe how you did it.

NOTE (interestingly) that Arrow v10 rom (dated 20200830) from this OP thread WILL encrypt:

https://xdaforums.com/t/rom-potter-arrowos-10-0-official-stable-android-10.3994403/

however the v10 Arrow rom (dated 20210310) from the official Arrow site will NOT encrypt:

ArrowOS - Downloads

Hey I just tried september 2nd's ROM and encrypted my device with it. Everything went well, I set up my pattern after I'd encrypted my phone though, don't know if this changes anything.
I use the latest TWRP.

Hello the Rom is bugs free or having some more bugs?

Hi,

Yesterday I did my first ever non-OTA OS upgrade and put ArrowOS GAPPS onto my Moto G5 Plus. It took a while (I was trying to follow the guides at https://www.getdroidtips.com/android-11-moto-g5-plus/ which bounce around and cross paths rather a lot and maybe do things that aren't needed) but ended up with a booting phone, running Android 11 with Nova launcher. Finger-print reader gestues work nicely.

Fails:
- Where my cats? The easter egg launchers (kicked as Nova activities) can launch the food popup but the power menu doesn't have the easter egg options... Got it working - seemed a bit fiddlier than stock Motorola 11 on my G9 Power.
- Torch, in the pull down bar, says the camera is in use...
- I keep getting a media service fail report... "android.process.media keeps stopping" - it clears itself from the display quite often before I can do anything. See explanation below.
- Battery use seems a bit high.

And is there any way to get around the "your device has been unlocked" 5 second delay on boot?

Camera usage generally seems okay... and I thought I'd force stopped everything that was using it but I'll give it a go. Thanks.

So, I disabled "Download Manager", forced stopped it, cleared its storage. Restarted the phone. Went to Play Store, which said it really would like Download Manager running, so I let it start it and restarted the phone again. I've not had the error since... (yet). But I've not updated or installed anything, either... Well, now I have and still not had a problem with the android media service....

Just got the 9/22/21 update! Thanks to whoever is still maintaining this ROM. This was always the best one I had found for my phone.

...

...

I've been using it for a while now and battery usage seems fine. I think it must have been the data transfer from my other phone that worked it a bit harder, keeping the display on solidly.

Still haven't got the torch working - even though the camera happily does flash, nothing else seems to be able to use the flash light (not just the pull down).

Camera usage generally seems okay... and I thought I'd force stopped everything that was using it but I'll give it a go. Thanks.

$ ps -A | grep camera

camera         3619      1  187776  10252 poll_schedule_timeout 0 S mm-qcamera-daemon

So with only those three - two "server" processes and a "daemon" - the problem persists.

Does this apply to everyone with ArrowOS on Moto G5?

Can't post a video to Instagram after Android 11 update
After doing android 11 update, re-create the instagram video post is there a problem solution please??

 

[JohannesL2021]

Still new here: Is this ROM working with Potter *XT1685* (EU-Version, 3 GB RAM, 32 GB ROM, Dual-SIM; Android 8.1.0) and the ROM is not rooted, right?

 

[badtlc]

Thank for the October security update!

 

[Mohit8696]

I came from evolutionx 4.0 unofficial and my banking apps do not seem to be working on Arrow OS(10/11) no matter what I do. The apps(Phonepe/Gpay) do open but can't activate/verify my bank account. I have tried magisk hide and hiding the app plus denying Telephone permission for G Play services.

Any heads up would be great.
