Downgrading from 7.1.2 public beta issue - Google Pixel Questions & Answers

Hi guys and gals I have a small issue/ question . I wanted to downgrade to official build from 7.1.2 so I flashed the latest official image but there are at least three issues I found. The notification panel doesn't pull all the way down nor does it display new notifications. Also the fingerprint scanner does work. It says something about hardware not being available. Also home and recent buttons don't work. Is there something I can do without factory reset. Maybe resetting application's data or cache? Any ideas please?

[Q] Push Notification Issues

Hi all,
I recently updated to 5.0.1 using the RUU, ever since I do not get push notifications. I am hoping it is something simple and not related to the 5.0.1 firmware.
I tried turning off the sleep mode to see if that fixed the problem, but it doesn't seem like that is the issue because I still don't get push notifications. I also checked all my in-app notification settings and they seem fine.
Does anyone have any ideas what the problem is?
Your help would be greatly appreciated.
It is most likely a ROM issue, firmware shouldn't effect is. Maybe make a backup of your current ROM and do a factory reset to see if that fixes the problem

Issue - Automatic Screen Locking in Oneplus One

I am facing the issue of my OnePlus One screen automatically locking itself while using apps or camera. for the past 6 months. This has been frequent especially while playing games or watching movies in landscape mode.
Issue still persisting even after the last 2 OTA official updates.
Please let me know whether there is a solution to this issue. I could not find any solution thread for the same.
Oneplus One
Official CyanogenMod ROM
CM 12.1-YOG4PAS3JL
Android version - 5.1.1
Kernel - 3.4.67-cyanogenmod-g223b093
Build Number - LMY48B
Its a software issue, which you could maybe be get rid of if you would root your phone and wipe dalvik and cache in recovery.
When this not help you , you can factory reset your phone in recovery mode.
This is definitely a software issue.

Sensor hub

Hello
I am having a hard time with my n920p since a few days.
All sensors are down. *#2663# gives a FAIL, updating the hub fails. MCU name: NG.
Flashing different roms nothing. Deleting cache data anything deletable.
21 sensors detected through cpuX. Though no data received.
Opened the bugger nothing visible. All Cables in place.
Read somewhere that reballing the MCU was the key. Though i don't want to mess with the electronics yet, because i still hope it's a software issue.
Any Thoughts?any ideas?

I am also having the same Issue and am almost certain that it was due to a ROM that I installed on the device that wrote over a key component of Samsung firmware. I have unrooted and gone back to my original stock 5.11 to no avail, I then upgraded to Marshmallow OTA with my fresh, unrooted factory firmware to no avail. I even went as far as installing multiple different versions of factory sprint firmware (closely following double install instructions) and I'm still stuck with an issue that I'm sure is only software related.
I am more than willing to do whatever it takes to get this problem fixed so if there is -anyone out there who has some insight please contact me back!!!!!!

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.

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.

Yup, that worked. Thanks mate..
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.

Got a bootloop to TWRP after downloading latest update from Arrow OS and installing it

Dear all,
Hope you are doing great, I was downloading and installing automatic updates just fine and the other week got a notification about a new update of over 1.4 gbs and the automatic installer was not possible to do and requested me to download it and installing it manually. I downloaded the Rar and everything was going smooth and when I enter TWRP I installed at first shoot without doing any wipe or clear cache or data.
All was installed and it told me to restart the phone, I did that and vroom a vibrating sound happen and got me back to the main screen of Poco and then to TWRP and show me 3 workarounds to clear data and cache and the last resort do a clean flash rom.
I had to end with the last option since I was unable to install the update. What could be gone wrong here? I am back at stock now and I am very sad that this fricking update break all the custom firmware and got me bootlooped
I look for your inputs and maybe I can try again.
Thank you!
You must install Android 11 firmware for newer versions of Arrow as it has switched to OSS vendor.
I was on arrow os 11 so Android 11 was on there, the issue was when I was installing the new update from surija I believe si called the developer.
Do you guys have an idea what did I did wrong? Should You recommend staying vainilla stock miui 12 with root privileges or arrow 11?
Thank you!
I was able to flash the latest version update but I am having a System UI is not responding and got WIFI broken so if anyone is installing this update be careful, does anyone installed the last arrow OS update?
I am currently having issues with the last update, I think I will stick with no updates on the firmware
Sorry I am posting multiple updates on my thread, but I tested it and definetly the last update from Surya break the OS when you login you do not have WIFI and is showing the error I mentioned UI system unresponsive. I installed the version from April from Arrow OS and all works like a charm.
So if anyone reads this be careful with latest release from Surya 5/14 version
Yes, i can confirm. The version I used initially was from april 30. The update from may caused bootloop. I'll be turning off updates when I restore it with miflash.
The main reason I went with arrow is that it is selinux enforcing and supports safety net. But this really makes me think..
@SebixWolf The problem may have been that you flashed arrowos from the wrong miui version. I just miflashed back to the original regional version, flashed twrp again and flashed the R firmware. See https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ng-flashing-custom-rom.4274891/#post-85002889
