Hello there!
Today I'm presenting you the latest update of my ROM, Xperia Z5 STYLE 4.6.
This rom has a unique feature, and it's that it's made for both locked and unlocked bootloaders, having some advantages and disadvantages linked to it...
Based on the latest Xperia Z1 Compact deodexed base by @Gaurav007, with SuperUserMod and ZipAlign.
Implemented with a bunch of updated Sony Xperia Z5 apps, such as Camera, Weather, Contacts, Dialer, some themes, etc.
No bloatware: All unuseful Sony apps were removed. The system has been optimized at it's max.
Tweaked: Some tweaks have been implemented to improve your Lollipop experience, such as TRIM for NAND, ART Tweaks, and zRAM Tweaks.
You can install Xposed on top of it if you want to. Just Google Xposed For Lollipop and follow the steps.
Custom ROM OTA Services: A OTA Update system has been implemented, independent of Sony's FOTA, so that I can send you over there the latest patches and updates of the ROM.
X-Reality & Bravia Engine 2 come preinstalled to enjoy a better image quality.

- Reboot and wait until the system completes the upgrade.
All bugs and faulty apps, excepting some Sony camera apps were removed or fixed! (Thanks to some tweaking and modding)
Settings app functionality has been extremely improved! Now, the 3 main required-add-ons of the ROM, APN Config, YAAB and OTA Updater have been integrated directly into the Settings, and thus, removed from the launcher to avoid duplicate functions. (APN Config is under Settings → More → Install new APNs, YAAB under Settings → Screen → Automatic brightness, and OTA Updater under Settings → About device → System updates). Also, the Settings icons have been replaced by the new Xperia X ones.
New BootAnimations. Yes, you read it well, bootanimations, since now, in the first boot, you'll be presented with a color-changing bootanimation to let you know if the first boot is doing well, or frozen. When first boot is done, it's replaced with regular Xperia X bootanimation, which I'm quite sure you'll love it
New Android-N-style notification shade and Emojis from Developer Preview 2! As I already previewed some days ago, here you've the flattish Android N style notification shade, plus some new emojis right from Android N, featuring support for Unicode 9!
Support for XPERIA Companion (and PC Companion) added!
A small Stagefright patch has been applied to the system, to avoid MMS RCEs. For those upgrading from older versions, in order to activate it, please, wipe data of the Xperia Messaging app.
New Number Assistant app included, letting you block unwanted calls and SMSs.
Updated launcher (Xperia Home 10.0.A.0.40), featuring slide-down-to-search function right from the desktop and app drawer icon rearrange (if wanted).
New Xperia X system sounds added, featuring new ringtones and notifications.
All System apps, and SuperSU package were updated to it's latest version as of today.
And some other things I can't recall right now...
Old versions:
Version 4.5-MU1 and 4.5b-MU1
Beta release channel it's going to be considered 4.5b-*** from now on, instead of the old 4.5b3, which is now a non-sense.
NotoColorEmoji font has been updated to use Android 6.0.1 emojis. You'll need an external keyboard to use the new emojis, such as Fleksy.
Settings has been slightly redesigned, following Xperia X series look and feel.
The gap between the network indicator and the battery icon has been reduced considerably.
A better PS4 Remote Play port has been included. I've no idea if it works , so if anyone owns a PS4, please test it and report.
SEMCcolorExtraction was faulty, making multimedia LED to stop working in Album and Video app. Now that's fixed.
Xperia Home has been updated to 10.0.A.0.24, featuring Double Tap to sleep in the launcher.
Hosts updated
Version 4.5 (Full changelog since 4.0)

New launcher! Launcher has been updated to 10.0.A.0.5, featuring more translations, and some other cool features (plus, sliding down from home screen to show search has been disabled). Also, it has been set in 'Classic Mode' as default. You can go back to the automatic one in Xperia Home Settings.

Version 4.0; Initial version.
Apart from some faulty camera apps, like Sweep Panorama, and video mode in AR Effect, everything is working as intended.
Any sporadic bug might be easily solved by reinstalling the ROM, or by wiping Dalvik cache and/or Data.
For example: Camera app crashes → Wipe Dalvik and it should be solved.
WARNING:
If you experience any major hardware issue during XPERIA Z5 STYLE usage, please, check here and proceed as described.

Known bugs:
My APNs are not downloading automatically, what should I do?
Configure them manually... I'll try to fix that for the next one
My screen is not working to touch anymore after flashing the Zip?!?!
That's a Sony's Kernel bug present in all 0x0800 screens, and I can't fix that.
The solution for me is to lock my device, and after 3 seconds, turn the screen back on and it should be working ok again.

Quality is almost the same than stock, but, IMO, it looks decent enough. I can upload some samples if you want to. And in night conditions it has improved way much. Give it a try. BTW, the UI is the Z5 v2 camera so at least it's something fresh.
//EDIT: Check this sample I just took:

The patch should correct that, use it if you need it.

Z5 v2 Camera UI Test - Working fine here.
BTW, recorded using SCR Screen Reocorder 5+ for Lollipop. This one.
Remember to: Disable MIC Audio or will crash & to Set a path for Non-root recording saving, or will crash.

Wow, great job guys!

Edit: If I'm on Lollipop atm, do I need to do the first step of installing, to be exact, flashing the 5.1.1 ftf?

If you're on a clean Lollipop installation, you can skip flashing the FTF.
I just added that step in case you're on a custom rom like Omni or CM

Only issues I've encountered:
1. Auto downloading network settings is not working (but it was mentioned and easy to handle).
2. Auto screen dimming is not working on my device (D2303).

Please note that this version is made for and tested on the TF101 model.
This rom is an aosp based rom with my own additions on top of it.
The main motto of the rom being Kiss. Even though the Meerkat could give you a kiss, it stands for Keeps it Sweet and Simple too
Which means that just like the other K.A.T stuff, the rom's main goal is efficiency, speed/res ponsiveness,
while not adding bloated features that will slow things down

Tips
First Install
Make sure you do a format /data the first time you install the rom
(backup your internal storage first if you want to keep something)
The first boot after a rom flash can take a few minutes as ART is slower than dalvik to optimize the applications, but is faster after the 1st time.
(First boot takes ~4-5 minutes without gapps and 10+ minutes with gapps)
Also keep in mind that after a fresh install, it might take a bit of time to get up to full speed as media scanner & google are checking/scanning and restoring stuff.
Bluetooth
Bluetooth might require to be turned on twice before it scans and displays the available devices.
Wallpaper Modes
Different Wallpaper modes have been added in Settings => Display
** Normal (regular android mode)
** Disable System Wallpaper rendering (set as default)
** Disable Wallpaper service
2nd setting will prevent the wallpaper being rendered by the system making things faster and also freeing resources
That's the recommended setting you want to use if you are using a launcher that has internal wallpaper rendering
The Default included Launcher3 has internal rendering
For Nova: Go to its Settings => Desktop => Wallpaper Scrolling => Force, then set a wallpaper.
(You will see a black wallpaper if you're not using a launcher that can do internal rendering, If wallpaper is important and that you want to keep your current launcher, then switch back to the 1st setting)
Youtube
Depending on your network and tablet load, 720p videos might not play or take longer to buffer.
Switch to 480p in that case.
Some videos are also 720p60fps so you might need to switch back to 480p for these too.
You can also try an older youtube version and disable auto updates: youtube-v5.0.21
Google Play Movies
Our current Widevine DRM libs are not compatible in MM.
So you can't play a movie on the tablet with Google Play Movies as it requires that.
Starting a movie to play on chromecast should be fine as the drm will be the chromecast one in that case.
Now On Tap
Now On Tap requires the nano opengapps version, however our default /system partition is too small to accommodate them.
So if you want to install the nano or bigger opengapps version, you'll need to repartition the storage space first using Bigwheelie for extended partitions
Then activate Now on Tap from google now settings
Hardware keyboard layouts
More languages have been added in the default asusec keyboard
Set the keyboard layout through Settings => Language & Input => asusec => setup keyboard layouts
These also allow live switching without reboot with ctrl + space
Global Key Override/Shorcut Mecanism
Available in Settings => Dock => Add Key Override Actions
This will allow you not only to redefine function keys assignment, and other special keys actions,
but you'll also be able to assign global macro actions / app launch to any key + Meta key combination (shift Left or Right , ctrl..)
You can also add multiple actions to one key combination, simply click again on the "+" button for the same key combination.
For example if you want to assign to one key combination a list of action to run before going to bed for example, like: turn wifi off, Bluetooth off, mute sound, and turn screen off, you can do that
Note that starting multiple applications with one key is kinda a miss and hit for the moment due to some mecanism in android that seems to prevent applications to start too close to each others.
Storage (fstrim) and Database optimization:
Fstrim is native since 4.3 and will happen in the background if your tablet is idle / sleeping and that your battery is > 70%
There is also a script to run it manually in the rom: /etc/kat/optimizestorage
To optimize the Database: /etc/kat/optimizedb
To run both, open a terminal and run:
su
/etc/kat/optimize

MultiWindow
Multiwindow allows you to split the screen in 2, 3 or 4 panes
you can switch an app back and forth between multiwindow mode and regular mode while it's running
NavBar:
- To switch between full screen and split View you can use the
NavBar Buttons
The app that currently has the focus (or the latest used app if you're on the Desktop) will be used for the main pane (left and/or top depending on the mode and rotation)
And it will lay the remaining most recently used apps in the rest of the available 1-2-3 panes depending on the icon you click
- If you press a multiwindow icon again when in splitview mode, it'll bring the focused app back to fullscreen mode.
- To swap the 2 latest focused apps location / pane , long press on the
NavBar Button
- To change focus simply Tap on the app or use the
NavBar Button
That button can also be used in non multiwindow mode to switch quickly between the 2 most recent apps.
Global Actions:
Actions to switch the app between fullscreen / splitview 2-3-4 panes, swap, or switch between the 2 most recent apps have been added
so you can bind them to a key / key combination with the Global KeyOverride or long press on navbar button too.
Note: Most apps works ok in splitview mode, but some of them might crash or not refresh correctly sometime.
To manually position an app in one of the pane:
For the moment either reorder your apps before clicking on an auto mode icon,
or you can also activate the default Marshmallow Multiwindow mode to get extra icons to positions an app in a specific pane (activate it in developer options )
Then position the apps with the icons from the Recents screen. (default MM recents icons are for 2 or 4 panes)

First
Many thanks, Tim, for keeping the Tf101 alive!

I'm a little afraid to try, but I know I will
Officially my Transformer is one of the oldest devices I own and should really show its age.
But it just doesn't, it sets itself apart from the two other Tegra 2 devices (Notion Ink Adam and Acer Iconia) by being a thoroughly enjoyable device, which reacts very promptly to all input and still is mechanically perfect with great battery life.
Some hardware ingredients like DRAM and Flash seem to be made of better stuff (some benchmark show twice the memory bandwidth than Acer Iconia and NI Adam and the eMMC is lots better than Acer (Adam is notoriously terrible)), but mostly it must be the constant tweaking you (and Google?) have put in, because the performance only got better and better, even if the applications typically got fatter and fatter and 1GB of DRAM is no longer as plenty as it used to be with Android 2.2.
I surely can't say the same for my Nexus 7, which started being somewhat snappier than the Transformer and turned out pretty bad with LP even after turning off the journalling on ext4.
Marshmallow has disappointed me so far (only Nexus 10 migrated yet), mostly because my standard launcher SPB shell 3D no longer works on it and I just like it better than stock or any other.
And then I just don't see any significant improvements beyond Lollipop or rather CM 12 with all the privacy stuff already included. And I just love the fast task switching, which is part of the multiwindow support and which I have on a keyboard shortcut (hope it comes soon).
Somehow I also doubt that Nougat will be better in any sense except "better" Google integration.
But since I'm very much afraid of operating anything without the latest security patches, I'll just have to make the switch.
And I'm sure it will be as perfect as the current LP by the time Nougat comes out.
Thanks Timduru for making it possible

Link is ready, downloading :good:

Thank you. what I've failed to understand, do you need to install a separate root tool? Or is it included in the recommended recovery tool? It's still as i bought it in 2011... Thanks!

Thanks so much Tim gonna test this out

Just follow the procedure from the 1st post:
once you have the recovery installed:
the first time: format /data
then install all 3 zips at once: rom + supersu + gapps
then reboot.

Thank you Tim! Awesome as always. Gonna try ASAP.
One question...
What is the downside of not having omx codecs working?

No omx codecs means no gpu video acceleration, so it'll use cpu to decode instead.

It sounds so easy... First I don't really know how to install the recovery (hence, i have been spending 'only' app 7 hours on topic by now). I would assume from PWR+VOL- then Vol+ goes to recovery mode, but the device gets stuck with a android red expression mark. I then tried to install the Easyflasher 0.8.3 and managed to first delete the drivers and installed new universal ones. Rebooted and continue to follow the procedure and the Easyflasher on my Windows tells me i have successfully unbricked my Asus Stock. However, when i reboot, it looks all exactly the same, no data lost, no new installation. Then I could, or should?, flash a recovery. However, if i try to do it from the Easyflasher there is only the old TWRP 2.2.1. available and i fail to make use of the downloaded TWRP 2.8.1.1. CLick the Root, doesn't work either.
Then, the frustration goes up and the progress goes down... please advise and push me in the right direction! MUch appreciated!

Installing the recovery is not really the focus of this thread, and it has been a really long time since I installed on mine
But what I would do, since you seem to have easyflasher and drivers working:
- Install TWRP 2.2.1 from easyflasher
- reboot to that TWRP 2.2.1
- Install the TWRP 2.8.1.1 flashable zip from TWRP 2.2.1
- reboot to the recovery and it should now be TWRP 2.8.1.1

Flashed all 3 zip ROM+su+pico but can't boot to Android.
After the Asus logo screen turns black and nothing happens.
Any ideas?

sounds as if the new kernel didn't flash or something.
What recovery are you using ?
Even if the screen goes black you should get adb working after a few minutes, it's still doing things in the background normally.
Try to grab me a logcat + dmesg at that point.
EDIT: Found the problem, yeah kernel not flashing:
Flash it separatly for the moment: Tim_KatKernel_122_MM6.0.zip
that will be fixed in the next version.

Unfortunately me too.
The only step from install note was the "Format" because of lack of time and data cable to copy everything from internal sd to my pc (only way for me is over the air with My Phone Explorer right now).
Tried 19 & 19b together with SuperSu 2.52 and gapps-arm-pico in one flash.
Backlight of screen is on, but then nothing happens over an hour.

Sounds like a plan, i tried and Easyflasher tells me it runs Wheelie,NV Flash then 'finished new reboot into recovery'. I do so, but android gets stuck in the recovery with an red expression mark, then it'll boot normal again.
Might it be that root access is blocking it? The Easyflasher root access tells me to first falsh recovery and put the superuser on sd.
I have installed both TWRP and SuperSu but both run into issues: the first tells me 'root is required' then closes, the second tells me 'no SU binary installed' then closes.
I then decided to go for a very crappy 1-click root access, see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1689193, with an even worse http://www.4shared.com/postDownload/ja5cFLAL/1-Click_Transformer_Root_11.html. This seems to have succeeded and i got root access (!) and the above described issues on TWRP and SuperSu were not gone.
Then in TWRP i couldn't select the zipfile TWRP 2.8.1, and after telling TWRP i had a TF101 i could select an older version like 2.3, which he was going to download. I had to confirm a path but decided to abort. I then tried to boot recovery but unfortunately, and not as i expected, it run into the same red expression mark. I then decided to run APX mode again and see if easyflasher could access root now. Also negative. Then run normal ABD mode and checked if i could do something with SuperSu, also negative.
So it seems my problem is that TWRP doesn't allow me to select the right zip file and as a result i can't run any recovery... any idea?
UPDATE: going back to apx flash the default TWRP2.2.1 then reboot to recovery succeeds in Easyflasher but the same red expression mark with Android. so also negative

A bit of OT in here:
My M2, as you may know, is broken, and I had to send it to Sony some weeks ago in order to see if they could fix it. However, the warranty coverage date on it's page was wrong, and they refused in first instance to send me back my device without paying for the postage. After explaining them the problem they were about to cause me as an active developer, they agreed to send me my device back without paying for the postage, but still not repaired.
Now, after several weeks since that, my device is starting to fail again, it refuses to charge in any way until the battery is somehow below 5-10%. I have to constantly wipe the batterystats.bin and restore my TA Partition in order to get it charging a bit, at least until ~ 87% of it's capacity, but I think it's not going to survive for much time any longer. If I wish to keep this going, now that this project has been released, I'm going to need to repair it on my own.
I know I used to say it before, but, if you've a spare buck and you wish to help me get my device repaired, please, consider tipping in (you've links in my profile & signature). Of course, it's not mandatory in any way, but, each and every single contribution is appreciated, since I'm going to need a new motherboard and battery combo and, as a student that I am, I can't afford it so easily.
Providing this, here's a list of the donors who participated:
- BlackenedEDIT
- junk031
- karlmorgan92
- ariadnaps
- furankuM2
And, here's the amount left to fund until I can buy the new motherboard and battery: 63.12USD (from 100USD start price)
Thanks so much for everything, I really wish this didn't happen, I'd not need to do this, and thanks for all the past and future contributions, they'll be all invested in getting the device fixed

I'm downloading now, and will install very soon. I can't thank you enough for your work on this device. I guess you got the Sony repair issue sorted out too!
I'll report back as I use it as my daily for a while

Unfortunately, not. The issue still happens, but at least they sent me back my device without charging me for the shipping, which wasn't cheap...
I'm going to need either a new Xperia M2 or a new motherboard/battery combo if I wish to keep this going
Also, just a small reminder, those who aren't betatesters yet (from Xperia Z5 STYLE), will need to register through the Google Form steps, or the download link will throw an error.
I personally need to add you all one by one, and I'm not 24/7 in here unfortunately, so please, if I drop the ball on adding an account after few days, kindly let me know

Awesome ??
Installing in few hours ???

You can perfectly go from Xperia Z5 STYLE, but, the installer will warn you that it will wipe your data, since it's mandatory after a full rebase... Just keep that in mind.

Is it weird that I'm suddenly really really excited to flash this? It's like getting a new phone every time you release something.

This mod will turn ON data_writeback for all 3 partitions - system, data and cache. This will drastically improve I/O performance (mostly on write operations) at the expense of file system integrity in certain situations, like unexpected system shutdown. The risk is not extreme, but still bigger then regular. Use this to improve your system performance, but you flash it at your own risk!

PhoeniX ROM Control Pro
Alot were worried about it. You shouldn't.
PhoeniX ROM Control Pro, is an option to donate to me via play store. As a thank you from me, it will unlock several more options in ROM Control.
How it works?
In order to enable pro features, you will have to install PhoeniX Pro Key from the Play store.
This applies to all feature updates, ROMs, etc.

Quote:
DO THIS BEFORE INSTALLING THE ROM - ONLY FOR G900V:
This is only for G900V, if you do this on other S5, you might brick your device!
Must already be on this firmware!
G900VVRU2DPF4_BL_G900VVRU2DPF4_MODEM_LTE.tar
If you are coming from other ROM or older version, full wipe is needed - super wipe is recommended.
Use latest philz or TWRP 3.0.0-0 or lower
Flash v14. Choose your mods, etc.
Reboot.
Quote:
Fingerprint- doesn't work on S7 settings & UI due to different sensor. Therefore, is removed.
Do not update SVoice to the latest .115 update. It uses S7 location sensor and won't work. The SVoice in the ROM is perfect.
Do not update any of Camera modes from the Galaxy Store because it will give you FC to camera due to S7 camera modules.
If you want to fix Youtube 1080P 60FPS lag, you have to change your device model from SM-G935F to SM-G903F. If you do that, you will lose the option to download S7 theme or update S7 apps & Edge apps.
If you have bugs, report in this thread.

JrKruse modified International ROM Patch:
Patch download
This is a G900F ported rom for the verizon S5 and i in no way developed, all that credit goes to Tamirda for the PhoeniX ROM as he definetely deserves it for the hard work he put in creating it! Also the patch is from JrKruse but with some files deleted out of the original to work specifically for this ROM>
Directions:
-You must be on marshmallow PD1 or PF4 firmware, baseband, and bootloader or you will brick your device
-you must have an unlocked bootloader or you will brick your device
-You must use 3.0.0-0 TWRP recovery or Philz custom recovery to flash
-Boot to custom recovery, wipe system, data, cache
-Flash V14 ROM
-Flash ROM Patch
-wipe dalvik/cache
-reboot, may take awhile BE PATIENT!!!
-Profit:good::victory:
this is a link to the original thread by Tamirda to go and say thanks for allowing us to use his ROM or make a donation, and i highly suggest getting his pro key app from the playstore as it unlocks a lot of features: Play Store
Tamirda's thread
Also you may be able to flash the update v14.2 linked in this thread successfully, works for some, not all
i nor Tamirda nor JrKruse are responsible for what you do with your device, YOU ARE!

Looks good. Good luck!
Sent from my SM-G900F boosted by PhoeniX ROM

Working perfectly for me! Thank you both so much! FYI, I'm on the PG2 baseband/bootloader and it worked great.
Is there any way to control the audio focus? I couldn't find anything in the ROM or in the other V12 thread for this ROM. I'm trying to disable it for Pokemon Go. So annoying...

I don't know what you're referring to when you mean "audio focus"?

Hmm... I guess it's a permission thing where switching to an app "focuses" the audio to that app instead of whatever apps are currently playing audio. So in Pokemon Go's case, it pauses all music as soon as you switch back to the app. Very irritating.
Apparently there are some music players that have some kind of audio focus override built-in, but I'm using Spotify, which doesn't. On CM-based builds, there is a setting in Privacy -> Privacy Guard -> Advanced -> Media -> Pokemon Go, and you have the option to untick "Audio Focus".

Pre flashing checklist
Hi all,
This looks like a great ROM to try!
Just want to make sure I have got this all straight before I flash.
I have a SM-900V, PB1 Baseband running CM13.0 snapshot and TWRP 3.0.2-2-klte installed.
Questions:
1. Looks like I need to downgrade TWRP to 3.0 or less
2. I need to find G900VVRU2DPF4_BL_G900VVRU2DPF4_MODEM_LTE.tar and flash with TWRP or Odin depending on what style file I find?
3. Then in TWRP – install
a. Phoenix rom
b. Jrkruse_modified_ROM_patch
c. And my Update.zip from Titanium Backup.4. I am no longer with VZW and using this phone on GSM only. Do I need to install the Jrkruse_modified_ROM_patch? Not sure if the patch is just to setup the vzw radios?Anyway – if you can help me with a link to the PF4 file and any other tips or mistakes I am making I would appreciate it!
Thanks in advance!

No, you have to also be on a mm bootloader, pd1,pf4, or pg2. here is a link to update to pf4 bootloader. If your phone is a 900v then yes you would have to flash the way instructions are set to get it running on your phone, you may just have to set your apn's manually. Let me know when you've upgraded to pf4 bootloader and I can help you further. @wantpizza

Thank you thank you for your help.
I am not going to fiddle any more tonight. But I have downloaded the BF4 bootloader and rom. It is .zip file = so it is a TWRP flashing file. I have no problem setting my APN's manually.
Good question is - do I have to downgrade TWRP to 3.0 to flash the Phoenix zips?
Anyway - thanks again for your help and I will plug along and report back.
Regards,
Wan

To flash Phoenix zips yes you must downgrade to 3.0.0-0 because its aroma installer, i would even suggest using philz custom recovery but only if it doesnt flash correctly with 3.0 twrp the first time. Reason being 3.0.2 twrp doesnt do aroma installers correctly. Also be sure to follow the instructions on updating your bootloader to mm as it must say Samsung official on your download screen before you can flash bootloaders.

So I ended up installing this ROM (v14.0) after doing a full wipe and am having an interesting issue - I can't seem to send any text messages. I can receive messages all day long, but always get a failure sending them. Here are some things I tried to do to fix the issue but with no avail:
- Clearing cache
- ROM reinstall (+another complete data wipe)
- Using different apps (default message app, signal, and verizon messages all get the same error)
- Modifying the selected APN (VZWINTERNET) to include an MMSC that points to http: //mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms and APN type to include mms
- Upgrading Phoenix ROM to 14.2 (from the original thread). It works fine, except again, not sending text messages.
The only other thing I can think of is I'm currently on the PD1 bootloader. I could try upgrading to PF4, but before I do, is there anything else that I might be missing that I could try? Not sure how much effect upgrading the bootloader would have.
EDIT: Updated bootloader to PG2 and still have the same issue. Also, when I roll back to 12.0, texts begin to work again.

What about PG2 bootloader?

Yes, I'm on Verizon in the US. I have tried flashing it three ways now in TWRP (3.0.0) using Phoenix 14.0:
- ROM only
- ROM, then reboot, then JrKruse international patch
- ROM and JrKruse international patch in sequence before reboot
Still a problem sending text messages. I've switched over to the stock PG2 ROM for now which is working for me.

Supersu no, Magisksu [emoji5]
You can uninstall magisk and install supersu if you prefer, but we don't recommend.
All the necessary in the repository of Mega.

when i go to security options settings app crashes
cant setup fingerprint id
oh now it works after playing with the instalation settings

I got an error during installation and start bootlooping, latter with more time I'll try again.
Thanks to share your work with us.

Error finishing the installation:
set_perm: some changes failed
Other problems:
-Does not detect micro sd
-You can not configure a screen lock method (settings close when you try to enter that section)
-Developer options can not be activated (the settings are closed when you press compile)
Those problems are what happened to me, I followed the installation instructions exactly as it says in the post

same problem with me

The rom is working or not?

thanks for the rom!
followed the install instructions except i didn't install the TWRP321_OREO_P20LITE.rar because i previously installed it following these instructions.
chose to install the custom kernel and SuperSU. not sure right now what else. i will write it down when i try the next build.
i encountered the following issues:
-error finishing the installation: set_perm: some changes failed during flashing (could this be because i didn't install your modded TWRP?)
-unable to set the lockscreen options
-unable to set up fingerprintid
-settings crashes when attempting to enable dev options
-sd card isn't detected within the fw
once i saw the sdcard isn't detected, i tried to recover from my latest backup but TWRP wasn't able because /system was only mounted as read-only (could this be as well because i didn't install your modded TWRP?).
ended up having to reflash stock from erecovery, rerooting and reinstalling TWRP in order to restore from my last backup (maybe i did something wrong?).
after reading the features list, i personally would use it as my main rom. i'd love to see it with viper4android included and with an all dark theme though but that's just me.
thanks for your work! looking forward to more!

Well, if you eliminate the fact that the fingerprint reader or any other screen lock method does not work, you can not use the micro sd and the developer options are not available. So yes, the rom works.
You can try to urge it, maybe you're lucky and do not have mistakes.

If i try to uninstall an app, the system reboot.
I've installed the modded kernel

Anyone with no issues? Can be used as a daily driver?
Please report back testers ^_^

Nope, so far I haven't seen anyone reporting positively. No fingerprintid and no security features makes the rom pretty much unusable as far as I've tested and seen on the thread. I'm awaiting to see how this develops..

Success
This rom is working prefectly.. i have keep on trying to re install the rom.I always follow the exact instruction, and i have found out. You will have a set_perm: some changes failed. IF you mark check the navbar, and status bar while in aroma installer.. I have able to use everything. Ill try to make a screenshot of it.

Thanks for the feedback!

YES. I HAVE FLASH THE RECOVERY. AND WHEN YOU FIRST DO THAT... AND YOU SHOULD PUT THE ROM INTO YOUR SD CARD..
YES, IF YOU MARK CHECK THE NAVBAR ANF STATSBAR. WHILE CHOOSING YOUR DESIRED APPS. YOU WILL SEE THAT IN THE VERY LAST PAGE OF THE AROMA INSTALLER. WHERE YOU HAVE THE OPTIONS. NAVBAR STATSBAR, SOLID EXPLORER, KERNEL AUDIATOR, AND the QUICK REBOOT. SO JUST MARK CHECK THE SOLID EXPLORER,KERNELAUDITOR,AND QUICK REBOOT..
SO TRY IT NOW. AND GIVE ME SOME FEEDBACK IF IT WORKS IN YOU. ALSO KINDLY TRY TO DO A SCREENSHOT. I DONT HAVE OTHER PHONE TO TAKE A SHOT ON IT. KUDOS THANKS

ok so i flashed the provided recovery and the rom following the instructions with the following options in aroma installer:
Kernel: Morfu2kernel
Root: SuperSU
Camera: P20 Pro
Music: Stock
Kernel Auditor
Quick Reboot
the installation went through except bootimage patcher failed at decompressing ramdisk (failure, aborting).
edit1: after a cache wipe, i rebooted the phone. the phone boots but no root.
tried to flash SuperSU through TWRP but failed.
wiped data/cache/dalvik/system & reflashed rom with Stock kernel & Magisk no bootimage patcher errors. after a cache wipe, rebooted & phone has root :victory:

i had that plus overheating but after what i did in edit2 it was gone and the phone runs smoothly.
on another note: is it possible to make this rom have init.d support somehow? it'd be cool for stuff like Liveboot..
