dynamic refresh rate activated/deactivated?

dynamic refresh rate activated/deactivated?

Deactivated.
Turning on dynamic refresh rate causes screen flashes all the time so I don't use that

How is this rom? Is it good as a daily rom?

How is this rom? Is it good as a daily rom?

So far everythings seems to be good; but it is just my 2nd daily mobile. GCam highly recommanded.

OK. Do I need to flash any DFE so that I can do OTA in future?

Found one bug:
In some parts of the UI in certain applications, and in some images, the picture/or UI becomes abnormally tiny, to an extent where you cannot see anything. So far I've found these two examples.

• When I click on any image in Reddit (not just the post, the image) (1st screenshot). This also didn't happen in other ROMs or devices. This does not happen in browser mode either. Saw someone reporting this for PixelPlusUI A12 as well, any problem with Pixel Experience? Workaround (not fix) for this issue described here
• Update: This also happens with the imgur app
• When I use the Pick to Wake app, the settings UI gets too small (Screenshot given, 2nd screenshot). This did not happen with previous ROMs while using the same app version. I suspect this might take place for any other app using an older UI instead of the modern UI

I did not change any "spacing" options in settings.
Is this fixable from settings or some bug? Kindly fix this if its a bug

Issue fixed in v4.1
Thanks a lot devs

"Show media art" is not working on v4.1
It used to work on v4.0
I have it enabled in the snowhouse settings with max blur set, and it doesn't work even after turning it off and on.
Example:
In v4.1:

The background is the wallpaper background, not the media art.

Whereas the same song in same app (spotify) in v4.0:

The theme colour mode was the same (basic colours).
I tried with other apps like SoundCloud, still doesn't work, so spotify is not the problem. Restarting doesn't fix the issue either.

Apparently media art doesn't work from v4.1.
Kindly look into this

Found a bug.
In apps that requires tap back two times to exit (Like Mixplorer) doesn't really exit, but just get swiped to next tab. Dialogue box for press back again exit shows and on second swiping we go to home screen. But later when we reopen the app, it opens to next tab of last position. Doesn't ask for any password even if we set it. Observed in multiple apps.

In another app, on swiping it gives the option to press exit, yet even after pressing that exit, app just minimize and allow us to go home only. No asking for any password.

But when we swipe up and hold to show recent and clear the app from recent, it exits for real and asks for password on next opening.

I've enabled gestures.

Hi all,

with v 4.0 Google Play Services is draining my battery very fast.
Is v. 4.1 solving this issue?

Also, Is there a way to dirty flash 4.1 over 4.0? I can't afford a clean new install as I have many specally configured apps that needed a lot of work.

Cheers

I tried to make a backup with TWRP but the data partition can not be read. Trying to decrypt failed. How can I backup the data partition of this ROM?
Twrp says "unable to mount data" and when I select "decrypt data" I get "invalid argument"
I'm using twrp-3.6.0_11-0-sweet.
Cheers

data partition can not be read

no one recovery at this time CAN'T decrypt A12 data partition. Use swift backup with root or similar to backup applications/calls/sms

I see, thank you!
Too bad. Hope all my settings, eg. for Island working profiles can be backed up with swift.

Dirty flash of 4.1 over 4.0 worked like a charm. Great room, no more battery problems. Thank you!!!

The description says that face unlock is available. Where can I find it?
