Great Job thanks my friend

 

[riveraghost]

Great job I have been using it for 2 days and it is perfect I love this rom

Thank you for the ROM, I am testing the ROM on SM-J730F and found one problem for now

First, thank you for the ROM, the problem that I have now is that the phone user interface(UI) is not showing when somebody is calling me, so I can't answer the call.

Does anybody have this problem?

Edit: It seems that now, the UI for answering call is showing now, I will continue to test the ROM.

First Boot (Time)

Is it normal that the first boot takes several minutes? It's been about 10 minutes I've flashed it on my J7 Prime G610M, using Project TreBlue Vendor on my TWRP 3.2.3 and I was running Havoc OS 2.9 (Pie)?


Edit 1: After 15min waiting, stuck on CrDoird logo colorful, I am going to restart (vol down, home + power) to see if it starts and gets the Android setup.

Can somebody tell me how to take a NANDROID backup of this ROM properly?

I created vendor partition and installed this ROM using OrangeFox.

I also took full Backup(partitions selected: Boot, Cache, Recovery, System, System Image, Vendor, Vendor Image, Data, Modem, EFS) using OrangeFox.

I tried restoring the backup(selecting all partitions previously from backup), it did restore( i think phone rebooted while it was restoring the backup), but the ROM is not booting(it is stuck on crDROID logo)

So, how to take a proper backup of a crDROID ROM, or generally, of any treble ROM?

Edit: There is one approach to solve(partially) this problem: First, install crDROID as you would normally do(using the official guide on the first page on this thread), then don't restore the full backup, restore only the Data partition and crDROID will boot successfully.

Still, I wonder why full restore is not working, as the phone is rebooting while it is restoring(could be there a problem with the selected partition System Image and Vendor Image?)

 

[tilkifatih]

what is main differences between havoc and crdroid?

 

[death.by.confusion]

what is main differences between havoc and crdroid?

Havoc OS uses Project Treblue, while crDROID uses H-VENDOR(which is included in the current flashable ZIP of crDROID)

You can install either of them, it will be good.

I personally use crDROID, it is stable for now(everything that I tested is working: Camera, Wifi, Hotspot, SIM, Fingerprints).

My phone is J730F

....

Well, it seems the problem was in fact in System Image and Vendor Image

When you restore, don't restore System Image and Vendor Image. Only restore Boot, Recovery, Cache, Vendor, System, Data.
