I updated every time an update was up , and no problems what so ever , except with data , but i guess it's more firmware related

Hi, I'm using arrowOS on my gingko since August; I'm on vanilla build. I'm using latest TWRP official recovery. I updated system twice but after every update I have bootloop; to solve the problem after every update I must Flash DM-Verity-disabler, why? How can I update to last builds without flashing DM-verity disabler?
(I also have magisk23.0 installed and I don't uninstall before update -- in magisk app I saw the device has ramdisk in recovery, so I think magisk always patches boot image to force the device to boot from recovery: if I try to boot in recovery with combo power+volume up I always boot the system; to enter recovery I must use advanced reboot settings..)

Just wanted to say that it seems that the Latest Sept 14 update broke the fingerprint I tried deleting and adding the fingerprint it doesn't seem to work

Hello.

Can I please ask what is the Recovery to use to make the OTA update install itself after downloading ?

I am currently using this Recovery: https://orangefox.download/device/ginkgo

I have a Redmi Note 8T ( Willow )

Thank you.
I use OrangeFox without problem, you have the latest build ?


I've try to rollback 24 August build and I can't... I've try 12 and 14 September build, same problem, finger print doesn't work anymore. NFC work fine.

Do you have any Idea ? Better than clean flash ?

Hello.

Thank you :) for your reply.

I am using OrangeFox version: R11.0_1 and everything works beautifully :)

Otherwise, as far as the fingerprint is concerned, yesterday I updated to version: GAPPS build Date: 2021-09-20

And the fingerprint works properly.

So I would try to do a clean install again :)

Fingerprint problem here too: I'm on the latest GAPPS ROM, I deleted all the fingerprints and when I try to create a new one as soon as it finishes capturing the print it says that it didn't work.
Any idea on how to fix this? Tyall

I faced similar situation with the secondary user profile. But it happens for me with any A11 ROM for ginkgo. Do you have this fingerprint problem with primary profile?

Yes, and even more strangely it occured as I was downloading a big file while not having enough space so it may not necessarily be an update problem

Hi,

Latest build Arrow-v11.0-ginkgo-OFFICIAL-20210929-GAPPS breaks encryption in my Xiaomi Redmi Note 8. Back to Arrow-v11.0-ginkgo-OFFICIAL-20210924-GAPPS solves the problem...

    Its working, but battery must be above some percentage of charge, I don't know exactly how much.
    More than 10% or 15%, if you do have less than that, it will say that you don't have enough battery to use it

    ABOUT
    ArrowOS
    is an Android Open Source Project-based Android mobile operating system started with the aim of keeping things simple, clean, neat, and organized, both for the Android system and users. We added features that will be helpful in the long run, while aiming to deliver smooth performance and longer battery life. We understand the pain of unnecessary and sometimes rarely used mods/features being shipped with custom ROMs nowadays which may end up causing battery drains and/or memory leaks & crashes. This is being strictly avoided on our side keeping everything to a bare minimum, delivering stable performance all the time without destroying the AOSP interface. With users getting more used to tweaks and features, we added just the right features and customisations that will be actually USEFUL at the end of the day.
