Does it have vanilla setup wizard with QR code provisioning of a device owner?

Just installed this ROM and unfortunately wasn't able to initiate QR code provisioning at all. Is it something that is not deliberately included, or it's just missing?

So you did successfully install the rom but are just having a qr reader problem, is that correct? Thx

Yes, correct.

 

[mad4some]

Yes, correct.

Hey, did you do the firmware updating as linked in the OP?.....if so, heimdall or odin? I'm concerned about the bright red warning about only using on Lineage 19.1....

 

[iloveco]

I see in the install instructions that it says to use crdroid recovery. Is this a requirement or just a suggestion?

 

[maathimself]

I successfully installed using latest lineage recovery, and MindTheGapps-12.1.0-arm64-20220605.

Really hoping there can be another crdroid release soon.
I had a bit of trouble getting my bootloader unlocked and LOS recovery installed. I managed to do it and then installed latest LOS. But I really want to be using crdroid. Problem is LOS recovery sees the latest crdroid as a "SPL downgrade". Can I overcome this without having to flash stock?

 

[mad4some]

I currently have an older Lineage recovery on my tablet and am trying to flash the crdroid recovery from the op. ADB/fastboot is not working for me while in download mode....what is the procedure to flash recovery? Damn I am missing twrp!!

EDIT: Ok, got it flashed by changing to .tar and using Odin

 

[d4dave]

No sooner did I ask about a new release than one appears on crdroid.net. thanks @DarkJoker360

 

[mad4some]

Ok, absolutely hate the new taskbar ......anyone know how to get rid of it?

 

[sirreddot]

How can I find CRDroid Recovery?

How can I find CRDroid Recovery?

It's in the first post. Look for "crDroid Recovery" for the links.

 

[sirreddot]

Ok, absolutely hate the new taskbar ......anyone know how to get rid of it?

Go to launcher settings, misc and turn on and off taskbar.

 

[sirreddot]

Thank you for this ROM.
Is there a way to hide pen cursor?
