So far so good. Using Magisk root, and Xposed beta, and micro g, and all working well. WiFi did disconnect once so far. Hopefully a fix coming... Thanks
 @oshmoun - can you add option to switch nav buttons, or enable nav bar tuner? I can't get my apktool working on O, and no Gravitybox for O yet either...

I can register new fingerprints, but i cant use them to unlock my phone or to login on apps.

I installed TWRP https://forum.xda-developers.com/x-compact/development/recovery-twrp-3-1-1-xperia-x-compact-t3640914, the OEM image and I'm testing OmniROM now, thanks for your work, where can I report bugs?
OmniROM work greatly on my device, I'm using since 14 Jan without any problem! Really Thanks!

Lost mobile data today. At first boot, working fine, then installed AfWall and changed dns, and still working fine yesterday. Then this morning, no mobile data. Signal shows bars, but no 4g/lte, etc, and won't connect. Tried disabling and uninstalling tweaks and many reboots, but no change.

I am testing now. I haven't checked it enough to saying it's a rom issue; just wondering if anyone else has had it. It worked find with AfWall yesterday, but now in and out. I remember the same issue with AfWall on certain CM 12 roms...

oh man, thanks for making these ROMs, but the updater of 7.1 recommended this update and I just pressed install. Recovering from a brick now…
I'll come back to it later, when I have time for all the prerequisites.

OpenDelta
Nice work. OpenDelta advertised this update which I naturally installed without checking the requirements here. No requirements were stated before the update. Bricked my phone in a place where I couldn't do much about it. Just ask to please be more considerate since I more or less trust the update tool.

FYI: I dirty flashed from 7.1.2 via opendelta too. Once I flashed the oem partition using fastboot, the device booted again (only a handful of apps force closed and needed their data cleared to function properly again). Not the best choice to make this update available for installation with opendelta, no...
edit: forgot to mention I of course also had to update gapps to an 8.1 supporting version. I downloaded an unofficial pico opengapps from here

Good to know flashing the odm image helps when updating from 7.1
About opendelta, i don't have much control over it to filter out the 8.1 build. It's all done automatically.
Besides, it did do its job well. It notified about the new version.
The requirement to flash a seperate ODM image is similar to how it's needed to flash a vendor image, and not just system and boot images, on Google devices. Guess that's new for Sony devices, hence this confusion.

@oshmoun - how about kcal support? Here's my tests with kppd - https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=75200267&postcount=64 (and forward)

@oshmoun: Yeah I was kind of surprised to see 8.1 was available through opendelta, and I didn't think it would work. So I backed up everything before upgrading. Which is probably what people should do before upgrading anyway
Flashing the oem partition was a relatively easy fix, so it's all good.
Thanks again for your great work! It's much appreciated as the number of custom roms for kugo is really slim pickings.

Latest stock ftf compatible is 34.3.A.0.252, right?
EDIT: It seems so. Flashed it and this build works great with it, so far.

I've performed a clean install after full wipe and also don't have mobile data working. Wi-Fi works, though.
Strange issue I have is the lack of sound over bluetooth ONLY in calls. Playing music/video works otherwise. It's quite baffling. This was working as expected on 7.1.

beta 2 uploaded
dt2w works, bluetooth audio works, camcorder works.
wifi still partially broke and is a wip. after that its on to lineage os 15 for the h631

wifi works now and the end? of lineage 14.1 dev is here. everything seems to work now
release 1 is posted in the op.

Awesome work! I've finally got me a full featured daily driver

I still got my OG Stylo lying around somewhere. Guess I'll give this ROM a try...

After attempting to reboot after installing, I got a "Kernel Crash!" error. Now my Wi-Fi won't work after restoring a Nandroid backup. Good thing the OG Stylo isn't my primary phone, anymore.
EDIT: I just realized Bluetooth is busted, too.
EDIT 2: After reading from sources outside of XDA, the firmware should have definitely been on v20k before flashing this. Oh well. I might check into attempting to fix the issues, one day.
But ever since I moved on to the OnePlus 5, I only use the OG Stylo as an alarm clock. As long as that still functions, at least it won't end up in the dumpster.

Gave this ROM a go. VERY pleased! WiFi had a hiccup but now working. I can connect to Bluetooth but can not hear audio. Any others come across this? I'm on the metro version of the Stylo.
Thanks in advance.

I have a MS631 (MetroPCS).
S/W : MS63120p
Is it possible to install and any plan to post Official Release (14.1 or 15 later)?
Thanks..

This is cool... hoping to get a Google-less minimal fernsprecher going, but this time (compared to your other 14.1 build) I can't see any providers-- just 'error while searching for networks.' Now I'm guessing the reason is the same in both cases-- I started from wrong official ROM. Can anyone point to a 63120k kdz? All the old links I found yet are dead
ed: Tried to prove to myself that a kdz was even useful. I have a few wrong kdz sitting around still-- 10j, 20b, 20l. LG Flash Tool wouldn't actually change anything, ever, no matter what. ("Consult your system administrator". Well, he's me... baka.) And LGUP looked like it was doing great the first time, right up until it gave me back a shiny brick (QHSUSB__BULK), so ...maybe later?
:: phasepalm ::
ed-2: found https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-ms631-firmwares/ so now all I have to do is get QFIL to do anything.

I love this OS. I removed the Nexus launcher and installed the new pixel 2 launcher in its place though. Every now and again I have to disconnect and reconnect Bluetooth. But that's not really a problem for me. WiFi sometimes drops but reconnect. I can't wait for the new lineage OS.

Any update?

Nope, because the OP's phone was destroyed.
On another note: I was also able to get my OG Stylo up and running again with LG Bridge yesterday, with the latest official update (Marshmallow). I might try this ROM again, one day.

Like I said, I finally found https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-ms631-firmwares/ and v20k is on there but no promises unless you can find the known good MD5 hash somewhere. I couldn't just try it because again, this ms631 is bricked in 9008-mode.

Hey there I got it. What I did was I hooked up to LG Bridge and let LG do the repair from the upgrade repair button and it got my phone back to square one which was fine. From there i unlocked the bootloader and booted from TWRP 2.8.7.1 image file and then once inside TWRP I installed version TWRP 3.2.0-0 recovery from the zip file. At that point I then was able to do an advanced wipe and wipe out the system and then do the lineage install from there. Once that worked I wiped it out and installed CyanogenMod just to see if it will go on as well and it did. So I went back and wipe that out and put the lineage OS back on there with the opengapps and it's running flawlessly! I also installed magisk to root it and everything is running fine. The only thing I miss from the LG part of the software was the knock on knock off feature. And I downloaded a tap on tap off app for that but you can't use any other locks with it. but I'm good, and thanks! Because I hated that stock operating system with all the bloatware even though MetroPCS didn't have as much garbage as the T-Mobile or other versions but still now I can control Play Store and everything else. I in fact use APK pure to get most of my apps if I can find the software there.

Hey I got my LG g Stylo and might use it again with lineage on it. I need to understand you're flashing a nougat custom rom over a mm stock room and it works? Also, I have 20o and in reading I see 20k is the requirement? Hope to hear feedback, thanks in advance. And can anybody tell me how they got twrp 3.0.2 on the stylo? I can't seem to do it with an unlocked bootloader via adb.

Your best bet is (very likely) to back up stuff and wipe it all out. I use SMS Backup Restore, manually export contacts, copy the files to SD, etc. Then to answer your other question-- root using apk from Kingroot.net which works but it loses root every time you reboot. So before you do, you can use Flashify to flash TWRP onto recovery, also run TitaniumBackup once and put everything on SD card. Then with TWRP running you could install SuperSU zip onto the stock rom and it actually sticks, but you would (make yet another backup and) wipe the phone before starting fresh with Lineage and then restoring your stuff piecewise. That was last year, though, might have forgotten something. Like it's hard to remember but I *think* you can skip the Kingroot & Flashify routine altogether, just reboot to fastboot and on the computer 'fastboot boot twrp-x.x.x.x.img' to boot it once-- even though it won't flash it directly. Then 'adb push twrp-x.x.x.x.img /sdcard' and then inside TWRP, flash it using [Install Image] under [Install] instead of the usual zip file. HTH

The phone is bricked now. I did a fastboot boot twrp and installed magisk zip. Then installed flashify and flashed twrp image. Then formatted data and installed the lineage os and it didn't go through. I was in a hurry so I didn't backup the stock ROM. And so I pulled the battery and put it in download mode and flashed kdz. And when it finished the screen went black and shows no signs of life no matter what I do.

Lineage 17.1 is available now

So this morning I went to check on lineage OS news oh, and I found out that they released today for all pixels. I am running it with no issues although I would recommend to download the micro gapps package cuz if you do the Nano or anything below it will give you issues with your phone reading SIM card. Aside from that I had successfully running the rom with magisk installed.

Which versions of gapps did you try? Only nano/micro? I was thinking of selecting pico. Also, can you update via their in house ROM updater app while rooted?

Will there still wait to check to see if the updater works but it looks like everything is fully functional within it and right now, take a look at the picture that I'm going to attach to this that is her updater and it looks like it is completely 100% functional but I cannot be sure because there is no updates to test it with.
As far as the gapps go, don't use anything smaller than micro. There is something pixel 4 needs in telephony to work that is in micro+ but not in nano or pico ... If you flash rom without gapps , your phone will work to make calls, if you flash any gapps before micro, you will get a " insert SIM, emergency calls only " message.
After you flash rom, MAKE SURE TO REBOOT AND THEN FLASH GAPPS,! otherwise if you try to do it in the same session that you flashed ramen you will get a message telling you that you have insufficient storage to flash and it will fail to flash gapps!
A few things that I wish and I hope they do fix would be the 90 hertz implementation switch as of now there is no switch for it and the screen flickers at low brightness.
Soli gestures would be great, I know DU has them working so it's a matter of time before lineage does as well.... Same goes with the squeeze for assistant,.... It is also not working ..

Thank you for the detailed response!! I greatly appreciate all the info and I'm sure others will as well!:highfive: I will probably try it when the ROM becomes more stable. Currently on DU myself and I don't mind waiting until the project improves further. Would you mind letting us know in the thread how your first update goes while rooted? Thank you again for trying the legendary ROM and letting us know it was released!

Yeah, so after I installed it and set it up, I then adb sideloaded magisk canary on its stock kernel, it went thru like knife thru butter.
I then rebooted into android, finalized the magisk set up, rebooted and voila... I was rooted.... I then tried Kiri Kernel, since it has the necessary things for TWRP, flashed it within ex kernel and then tried to boot TWRP in bootloader only to get stuck on TWRP splash screen...
I was honestly trying to have lineage working with a working TWRP but unfortunately it did not work as such. So I gave up on the TWRP and I've been running the ROM with magic and modules installed with no hiccups The boot time is amazing battery life is really really good...
Viper worked first try... This has has to be one of three good roms out there with little to no issues.

this is the first release so I did expect it to not be fully fully functional but I know that within time it will be one of the best roms out there

90hz works, 70% plus brightness on coral gives 90hz, below is 60hz. flame has some different tunings percentage wise, but same concept.
RefreshRate will work as soon as we have an official R image I can steal a single APK from.
We won't be implementing Squeeze or Soli most likely - it's RE, and given scrutiy over large projects and reverse engineered code, we likely won't see it unless it's reimplemented OSS (DU reverse-engineered it, but didn't clean room re-implement).

Smooth display is auto switching between 60hz and 90hz that's why I asked if just 90hz was working

It works.

ok well i went back to stock aug firmware and then flashed the img file, then sideloaded the rom, rebooted right into recovery and flashed gapps ... stuck on the lineage boot animation .. do i need to let it boot up then reboot into recovery and flash gapps?
tried again, flashed the image then rebooted to start menu, rebooted to recovery and flash mini gapps and rebooted ... still stuck on the boot logo
what am i missing?
somehow i got it to boot and had a trebucket error, installed a different launcher - FIXED.
can not finish setup, keep getting data transfer crash
anyone get TWRP to load? im using fsociety kernel and it worked on another ROM

You're going to have to skip that by disabling the app when it force closes . It should let you proceed from there on. TWRP won't work and idk why... Trebuchet launcher will FC as well but since Google home launcher is installed via gapps it should be a fail safe. As far as kernel, I am running kirisakura and it has the necessary things to work with TWRP but I won't. Trust me I tried.... Make sure to root with magisk canary .
To fix cts mismatch in magisk download termux
SU
props
And select option 2 forced basic key attestation
Select y for yes and proceed... Reboot and you should pass safety net checks...
Hit thanks if I helped .. one love

thank you sir for the reply. However i could not get it to be stable. The initial setup failed no matter what i tried. The error of data tansfer tool would fail. I want to run this as it seemed very smooth, however i think i need to wait for another update or something. i followed the OP to the t and nothing seemed to work properly for me.

I use this daily, and am entirely unsure what you're doing here.
Are you using the wiki guide? If not, follow that to the tee, use nano opengapps preferably, and everything works like a charm.

I'll try again thanks for the info
Seems the wiki says you can sideload gapps right after sideloading the OS, the OP said doing that causes issues lol. But he'll I'll try it anyway

Got this running great, with gapps. Was wondering if you're getting the issue I am with google assistant. It seems to freeze up and not be usable.

followed the wiki directions and used full gapps not nano ( missed that 1 bit of info ) im STILL getting data tansfer tool keps stopping when trying to finish the setup going to try a reboot and see what happens. it shows just a sec then saying looing for updates then installing updates and crashes ... then back t connect to wifi . does this have to do with the gapps?
SO ODD ... reflashed and used nano. asked to connecto to mobile data, nothing as showing up, hit skip, tried wifi and nada .... hit skip then same damn error for setup .... insane. maybe ill just cancel the setup and do everything manually
retied all steps and got the no space error when doing gapps, switched to slot b and tried again and it worked ... waiting to see the data tansfer error ... i dont think my phone wants to play nice lately, or ever.
went back to stock firmware, loaded the 9/6 lineageos and have NO mobile data with nano gapps loaded. doing the update currently and will update shortly what happens
i can officially state i am up and running with so far NO issues, i have mobile data, wifi sent texts and made a call. now going to root and swiftbackup restore all my apps and blah blah

Anyone tried the new 13th nightly? Hopefully they fixed the screen flicker.

You do remember I said micro right? I specifically explained that by using nano you would have no cell phone connectivity and upon transfer tool just put no transfer

New StatiXOS OFFICIAL 4.2 build for Essential PH-1

StatiXOS
Download StatiXOS for free. StatiXOS is a homebrew distribution of Android. StatiXOS is a custom ROM based on the Android Open Source Project aiming to be minimal and clean, while providing quality of life improvements and up to date security patches. This page is to provide downloads for...
sourceforge.net
4.2 has been release
"Introduce our OTA Updater!"

For those with the Chrome issue of freezing I have a fix that another user in another ROM thread accidentally found!
If you download
PH1-OTA-PQ1A.190105.090.zip
and then reboot into recovery (TWRP, be sure to disable pin on phone before hand and backup everything) then flash the above (I wiped everything first but DON'T wipe internal storage) then I did a second wipe of everything but internal storage and then I flashed 4.2 of StatiXOS and then I flashed TWRP, then I rebooted phone and set it up from new and restored everything from Cloud backup and I can confirm that I no longer have the Chrome freezing issue.
You can thank seungbaekm over in the Evolution-X 5.4 thread for this fix as he is the one that accidentally flashed the older PH-1 factory image and discovered Chrome then worked again! This should fix the issue for all the new Android 11 ROM 's out there for us folks that have the Chrome browser locking issues.
I did not even test the new 4.2 ROM on its own to see if it happens to fix the Chrome issue but I doubt that it does since it is not mentioned in the release notes. Also I have no idea if any of the other original factory images will also fix the issue, I only downloaded the one they he said he accidentally flashed and used it.
Hope this helps everyone with this issue as I know how frustrating it has been. Sure, there is the Bromite/Brave/Firefox work around, and I have been using and enjoying Bromite since 4.1 but I like having things working the way they are supposed to work.

Thanks you very much
I will test

Following this great insight about the fix of the Chromium issue, I only flashed mata PQ1A.190105.090 NOVENDOR firmware from this old thread, without wiping anything of my current StatiXOS 4.2 installation, and after booting Brave is working perfectly.
So, it seems the issue was caused not by the ROM system or vendor, but the mata QQ1A.200105.007 firmware.
As a consequence of flashing this old no system nor vendor firmware, my device baseband was downgraded, but mobile data seems to be working just fine. I guess it's possible to test newer firmware available at the referenced thread, like PQ1A.190105.112, QP1A.190711.107 or QP1A.190711.148, to identify the latest firmware free of the Chromium issue.
More good news: now Netflix is working fine, also.
UPDATE: I tried all the these firmwares and Netflix worked fine only with the Pie ones. So, PQ1A.190105.112 is the more recent mata firmware that I can use on my PH-1 with StatiXOS 4.2 in order to keep Chromium browsers and Netflix working.

This is some great news, thank you and SirDigitalKnight for the research! I haven't tried this fix yet, but I'm planning to when I flash this week if I do run into the chrome freeze problem. You mentioned this downgrades the device baseband version. I'm not too familiar with that, you did say it's working fine so far, but do you think that could cause issues in the future?

Just a question, does StatiXOS have slim recents included?

I have no idea if using a.Pie firmware could have side effects in the future. So far, I haven't seen any.
Using the StatiXOS Telegram support group, I shared the information about the different firmwares to the devs, so I think they'll tell us if something can go wrong in the future.

Double Post

Just reporting that I did a clean install - "Fastboot -w" on the latest working firmware (JAN20 FW, FEB20 Vendor iirc) and I'm very impressed.
Plus replaced the screen, battery, and buttons cable and now the phone is "essentially" new. Parts are actually quite cheap.
Chrome is working without issues.
360 Camera is working without issues
Haven't tried sending SMS with VoLTE On yet.
Amazing that we still a maintainer.

The March 10th update they pushed out through the OTA updater worked perfectly. It is nice to see we still have good support on this great phone.

Thank you for this! And also thanks to @aamadorj for the further investigation!
It's too much of a hassle for me to do this fix right now, and I admit I have adapted to using Bromite and Firefox, but I'll definitely keep this in mind for some other time when I feel more like it... BTW, I did check, and Chrome stil freezes on the latest 4.2 update, no surprise here.
This ROM has been working great for me, very stable, no issues, and the updates are a breeze, especially with the latest OTA updater.

You should be able to flash the older Pie firmware without wiping from what I have read but I have not tried that yet. I might try it with the very latest firmware of Pie, PQ1A.190105.112 and see if it screws anything up without wiping the phone. Anyway I always to a backup of the phone to the cloud and also of Whatsapp before I start messing around just in case I have to wipe and so far all my restores have worked perfectly, but yes it is a pain to have to setup wifi's and add back in BT devices and setup security and any double authentication apps you use. Getting used to it now though.

Flashing the contents of the attached files using fastboot should make your device to use last firmware for Android Pie, without losing your current ROM installation.

OK, here is my update... Noting your comment in the other post about the downgraded baseband, I decided to exclude the modem from flashing. Flashed everything else from PQ1A.190105.112-NOVENDOR via fastboot, rebooted, and... Chrome froze again. Ugh... :\ OK. I went back to fastboot and flashed the modem - this time after the reboot the problem was fixed.
So, I'd say it's safe to conclude that the modem (baseband) is the actual component that was screwing up the Chromium-based browsers. Go figure...

This ROM is great on the PH-1. At the moment I can't get the LED to blink when notifications arrive. The setting is toggled on.
I've installed magisk, nanodroid and microg (not tried that sort of thing before!). Could that have anything to do with it?

Even with stock rom LED is not blink if you're using stock messages, try Textra and see if it works for you.

Help with nexus 7 (2012) rom

Hi. for 2 days I have been googling and looking on this forum on which rom is best for nexus 2012, but I can't find anything at all. most posts are for 2013 version or outdated with dead links.
I was able to get lineage 14.1 on it, but it was missing google play, after following some guide here and installing Gapps, it then stopped booting. it got stuck on the google logo and that's it. lineage 14.1 itself worked fine, installation of gapps succeeded, but simply won't boot. tried several times. always gets stuck on google logo (waited over 15 minutes).
before that i had some kali version on it, but out of the blue it stopped working and wouldn't boot anymore, that's where i deciced to try lineage. i dont want kali on it anymore as it was sluggish to start with.
so I thought I'll just put original rom on it and was looking for original 2012 rom download, but it seems like it comes in pieces like system.img boot.img ..etc and I don't want to overwrite my bootloader or lock the device again or cause other issues. I just want a working rom that can be sideloaded.
can someone please point out which rom is actually working with nexus 7 2012 and can be flashed using sideload or twrp loader.
I already have everything working, such as twrp, fastboot ..etc. I can easily sideload any working zip or img, but I simply can't find a working one.
I find only dead links on this forum and elsewhere, such as this one "xxxxxx" which is suppose to be for some nightly version. and some dead gapps links that point to dead domains or link just doesn't even exist.
please dont start suggesting to buy new tablet. i'm poor and i have no money and i only need this tablet to use with my smart plugs and camera. i'm not going to buy new tablet just for that. i just want to keep it on charger 24/7 so i can monitor my plugs and camera. that's all.
but for that i need working android rom and google play store so i can download and update apps.
I don't have any backups nor important data on it, however i want to keep it unlocked and keep the twrp.
any help would be appreciated. thanks.

it was bit sluggish and got stuck couple times during boot, but it worked.
I think better question to ask is: does any of the ROMs comes with gapps?
It was like 5-6 years ago so i don't remember much, but i installed some version of kali on it and it had everything included (play store and other stuff). however as i mentioned before, for some reason it got really, really sluggish and at some point it just stopped booting completely.

so your question is about gapps. ROMs always should provided without google apps for licence violation.
use older installer. check recovery.log
