As far as I know, that was a Play Store bug. Happened to me as well. It got fixed by itself.
[ROM] [ Z00ED/Z00RD] [Unofficial] [Unified] [LineageOS 14.1] [AOKP]
- Thread starter audahadi
- Start date
Got booted on Z010D.. Don't know if it will the same for this device.. Still lot of work to do though
I had exactly the same problem with lineage-14.1-20180729-UNOFFICIAL-Z00ED.zip.
I resolved it by downgrading to the previous version.
Guess I missed a news about this ROM for like... a very long time. Since last download with version 20170921, I wanted to install and jump over to the latest one (20180729) because the OTA fails.
Kinda silly question, though. What caches and/or datas should I wipe before installing this again (or upgrading)? Do I need to reinstall OpenGApps?
EDIT: The first post says that I can simply reflash the ROM. I'll keep you updated, doubt if it's totally safe to do that.

Latest update review: no noticeable audio stutter in some apps. Let's see if my Class 10 SD card can handle this fast enough as internal storage.
@audahadi, thank you very much for your work.
Do you have Z010DD device to test with?
Anyway, I have and willing to test
It happened to me as well. Have no idea to workaround through it other than manually downloading apk and installing it...
Is it safe to just flash the update with encrypted external storage (as internal storage)?
Hi, I have found a couple of fixes for the low volume problems.
They worked well for me, so I'm suggesting them here to you.
The first one involves modifying file /etc/mixer_paths_mtp.xml
You have to alter the lines
<ctl name="RX1 Digital Volume" value="84" />
<ctl name="RX2 Digital Volume" value="84" />
<ctl name="RX3 Digital Volume" value="84" />
Bumping up that 84 value to something else. I'm using 95.
I had a couple of issues finding an app able to write that file correctly. Some of them were silently failing, letting me believe the modification happened while it wasn't really the case.
After a reboot, you will find the maximum volume way higher, to the point that at maximum is slightly distorted. The internet suggests that if you use a value that is too high you are risking to damage the speakers. I don't know. Try it at your own risk.
Another possibly simpler thing that worked is an app from the store that works straight away, no reboot required and you can even turn it on and off while an audio file is playing so that it's easier to notice the difference between when it's on and when it's off.
The app is this one https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.goodev.volume.booster&hl=en
I'm not a fan of having an additional app always running, but I suggest you to try it because of that instant feedback that you can get.
I've got the information mainly from this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FHhvaEtDJvA
The only difference is with the content and the name of the xml file that on this distro is slightly different than the one in the video.
I hope this works for you just like it did for me.

Many applications on the Play store are incompatible with lineage-14.1-20180729-UNOFFICIAL-Z00ED

I'm thinking to install this rom to this my z00ed device. There is many messages on this topic.
What is the known issue for this rom? Low auido? Bad battery performance? etc?

Instructions :
After flashing the custom rom and gapps , do I need to wipe data the and reboot?
- Marshmallow bootloader is a must!!
- Update stock rom to latest (UL-ASUS_Z00E-WW-13.10.10.44-user) - preferably
- Unlock bootloader
- Install custom recovery
- Download the latest build and gapps (arm64)
- Reboot to recovery
- Full wipe (system/data/cache)
- Flash the latest build and gapps
- Updating rom (no need to clean flash if from same rom for ex. LineageOS >> LineageOS) - reflash any mod if any
- Reboot
After flashing the custom rom and gapps , do I need to wipe data the and reboot?
For the 5001st time: there is no definite need to unlock the bootloader. My bootloader is locked and I got the latest twrp and RR ROM.
My suggestion: try without unlocking - if t does not work: unlock or if it appears important to you, search for a prerooted stock rom which should enable you to flash twrp without unlocking. However rights now a locker bootloader does not give you lots of benefit since warranty for all of these devices should be over
Install TWRP
Unlock BL
Wipe everything
Reboot recovery
Flash Modem 13.10.7.1
Flash Lineage 14.1 (error in flash system unconditionnaly)
Flash gapps 7.1 arm64
Reboot
Bootloop ???
Where is my error ?

Use boot.img from lineage-14.1-20180526-UNOFFICIAL-Z00ED.zip
After flash boot.img try to factory reset
Sorry my language is not good
Where's Android Oreo? Many MSM8916 devices have already Android Pie like the Lenovo A6000 or Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime?
