C3C076 or one of you who are more familiar with this than I might be able to answer this...only I can't post in the proper thread due to thread post count....
Couple of things about this mod for the ThL W8. I have it running just fine but have some issues with it.
1. How do I get rid of the circle battery mod and go back to the stock battery icon?
2. How do I change the font on the lockscreen 'clock' app? The bolded hour looks terrible.
3. How do I stop the lockscreen from showing the left side box temporarily? It is showing that you can slide left to install widgets on the lockscreen but I don't like how it unbalances the look of the lockscreen.
4. Version 1.4 changelog mentioned that empty sim card slot notifications would be hidden....I still see a message for sim slot 2 being empty until I click the clear notification button.
5. Now that I think about it, could I just replace the digital clock app in 1.4 gravitymod2 with the stock clock app from android 4.1.2? If so, how?

1) You have 3 options a) learn to live with it b) decompile SystemUI and edit resource XMLs to hide circle mod and unhide stock battery c) flash different ROM
2) You can replace clock with another clock lock screen widget. There are many of them on play store, e.g. DashClock
3) There's no option for it. It's default Android 4.2 feature. There's an app called "lockscreen policy" which can disable side lock screen pages so it is maybe capable of hiding carousels, but I'm not sure.
4) it's not about disabling notification but hiding second signal icon in status bar
5) see 2)

Thank you for your reply C3C076.
Lockscreen Policy killed 3 birds with one stone! It disables lockscreen widgets, which also gets rid of the 'carousel' or box borders that show then fade for a second on the left side of the screen, and also disables the bold font on the clock hours! Nifty app and does just what I want there. Thanks for that!
6. There is a major bug that I and other uses are running into in the current version of GravityMod2 (1.4). My phone recent list and also text message contacts are getting split up. I send a message or make a call and it goes through fine. Then a return message or call is received and it shows up in my call log or messages as a different contact/person. It shows up received with the country code (+1) in my case and if I go to click on the profile/contact icon next to that number there is a message about an invalid number couldn't save contact. When I place calls by clicking on these received calls, I get a invalid number error message, click ok to dismiss it and then it will go through fine (using gv or not using gv in both cases).
I think that has something to do with the country code being added...I don't really know except it is kinda frustrating. Is there anything you can do to fix in an update to GravityMod2?
Ok Back to the topics above.
4. The missing sim icon is indeed gone (i didn't even really realize it because it never bothered me). The notification, other the other hand, really bugs me. I mean, that TRIANGLE CAUTION EXCLAMATION POINT! just BEGS for my attention and the notification comes up every boot or every airplane mode disable (cell radio on enable). I haven't tried this yet but I thought maybe freezing the specific sim toolkit app using titanium backup might cause this notification to not show up....unless the notification is from the OS itself in which case, any way you can disable that?
1. Thanks for the pointers. That will get me started towards changing the battery icon to suit my preferences.
7. Possible updates for the next version of GM2 to consider:
In version 1.4 of GM2, the file /System/etc/permission/com.android.sip.xml has the feature android.software.sip commented out (as per this topic by gmincca). I checked the other file: android.software.sip.voip.xml and the permission was not commented out. Maybe you missed that first one? Or it doesn't matter? I understand those permissions relate to the built in internet calling capability of this phone. I probably won't use it but I uncommented those two permissions in those files anyway using FX Explorer rooted to save the files after remounting as rw.
Volume levels for the earbuds while playing media (headset, media) were killing me ears! I used engineering mode to adjust the volume levels here under Headset mode, media, to be max of 112 and levels 0-6 to be 40, 64, 80, 96, 102, 108, 255. The last setting is for when plugged into a car speaker or external speaker you can still get max volume and the previous settings allow for actual listening with earbuds at a comfortable level. I do not know if these settings are on a per speaker basis and your mileage may vary with the usefulness of these. I thought it helped out a good bit. I also made some minor adjustments with the sound levels for the speakerphone (loudspeakermode, sph, level 6 to 160) to be able to hear the speakerphone better while on a phone call.
8. You got the auto brightness setting for the dark just right in your latest change. 0% brightness matched autobrightness just perfect! Only minor thing is in full daylight auto brightness was a little bit under 100% so didn't work as I thought. If the auto brightness % for full lux can be adjusted I'd like to know where, or if you could update for the next version of GM2 that would be awesome!
Thanks for all your hard work on this custom ROM for the ThL W8! Kudos/Karma/+1 to you!
6) This is a standard feature/bug of all mtk6589 4.2 roms. I can't do anything about it since we have no sources and messing with anything at java disassembled code level (smali) is a pain in the ass. Easy solution is to keep all your contacts with country code prefix and it'll be OK in case your operator sends the same caller ID for calls and messages. You should keep your contacts with prefix anyway to be able to call while roaming.
4) I might try removing that notification in the future
7) you're right about SIP. I missed that file. If you uncomment it SIP options will appear in Phone settings.
8) I didn't adjust upper levels, just lower ones. It would be helpful to measure light sensor values under different light conditions with some app and adjust levels. So if you like to experiment, any input will be welcome. I can send you current values.

6. I can say it is not solely 4.2 roms but also 4.1.2 as well. On the stock rom and on the update line brush package FH4, 4-28-2013 (4.1.2 and 4.2.1 respectively) both of those roms also experienced this issue with the contacts being added country codes on incoming calls/messages.
After I went through my google contacts and used UltraEdit32 (similar to notepad++) with regular expressions to remove parenthesis, spaces, and hyphens (and a bad contact that was gumming up the works), I was able to make calls again without it erroring out with that message. It would still give the error message but then the call would go through. I didn't add the country code at that time but I guess it wouldn't be to difficult to export/download my google contacts again, turn off syncing, fix/add my contacts, then delete the contact stores on my phones and resync with added country codes.
With that said, if I use the dialer to directly dial the number which isn't in my contacts I still get the "Call not sent, no valid number entered" error message. I have found this problem is related to Google Voice and the Dialer (Phone) app. If I turn off using Google Voice to make all calls or to ask every time and set it to do not make any calls, the calls will go through no problem, I need Google Voice though so I guess I'm left wondering if I can use a different dialer...perhaps the stock 4.2.1? I have no idea how to get started changing that though.
My phone's dialer is from GM2 currently: version 4.2.1-eng.zhangshuangshuang.1366707806
Other's who have had my same problems with GV integration had similar issues with Samsung's replacement/custom dialer causing issues. Can I get a stock dialer/phone app somehow?
4. Please! And thank you! Of note: using Titanium Backup to freeze the simtoolkit application didn't do anything. I didn't see stk1 and stk2 like in 4.1.2 and in the 'line brush update official 4.2.1 rom. I only saw the one simtoolkit app and freezing had no effect on the notification). When I long press the notification, and press 'app info' it brings up the phone app. This means the notification is coming from the phone app directly I guess.
8. I'd be interested in what the current levels are for the brightness. I can use GPS status to measure the current lux however it doesn't report the current screen light level brightness setting, just the incoming measured lux from the light sensor.
9. Developer mode is not enabled by default in GM2. I had to google to find my usb debugging setting. (Go to Settings -> About -> Press 7 times on the Build number). Maybe this is an easy toggle to enable this by default for the next build of GravityMod2? I mean we are flashing a custom rom after all Not a big deal really if not.
6) Using alternative dialer from vanilla Android is impossible "thanks" to dual sim extension. The changes in framework and telephony are too vast.
4) it's coming from telephony subsystem in the framework.
8) I'll provide lux/brightness pairs later today (hopefully)
9) My opinion is that it's OK how it is now. Most of the users don't need it. Those who do, already know how enable it or can find out easily.

I did some testing in direct sunlight.
Anything over 8000 lux needs full brightness to be able to see the screen (even when the screen is set to 100% brightness in anything over 8000 lux it is still kinda of hard to see but that's why it needs to be full brightness on auto for 8000+).
In shade, but still bright out, the lux read about 6000 and the auto brightness setting was good.
I in framework-res.apk, changing those last two lux levels I think would help.
<item>6000</item>
<item>8000</item>
...
<item>230</item>
<item>255</item>
I tried decompiling and recompiling framework-res.apk after making the changes but couldn't get it to work. I wasn't sure how to install it. I used apktool and apkmultitool to decompile framework-res.apk and then change /res/values/arrays.xml and saved the files. Then I compiled and also tried signing them to produce the new apk. So far so good.
I then tried installing using apkmultitool install apk and it didn't work. It just said waiting on device. I tried rebooting my phone, tried recovery mode, tried regular just plugged in and turned on mode and nothing. USB debugging is enabled.
I also tried copying the changed apk directly to /system/framework (after first mounting as rw and changing the permissions of the new apk to match the permissions of the current framework-res.apk) using copy and paste on FX "file explorer." It would freeze when I gave it the paste command (yes it had root permissions).
I don't know how to install the changed apk or how to update this to get the new brightness settings. As the copy operation had froze the app, even pressing home did not work so I had to use my nandroid backup to revert phone to a useable state again.
When you compile modified apk in multi tool, say yes when it asks you if it's a system apk. Then say yes to create "keep" folder and delete resources.arsc from it, and then finish compiling process.

6. Great. Perhaps an alternative dual-sim dialer is available...I didn't check...are the stock 4.2.1 (FH4 4-28-2013 official update) dialer and the Eastcom/GravityMod2 dialers the same? Could that kind of change be made and fix up these crazy errors?
4. Does that mean it is also impossible or just kinda difficult to fix?
9. Agreed and hey, thanks for taking the time to answer all my questions. Hopefully I can help in some way too
I managed to solve 4) already. I mentioned it in GM2 thread.

Apkmultitook didn't prompt me about this, possibly because I chose the decompile system apk option at first. In fact, the compile process finished just fine with no errors. (Hopefully it was a good format for being a system apk but it didn't ask about that so...)
Once I have the compiled apk...I wasn't sure what to do with it. I was able to verify I had changed the xml file by decompiling the new apk but couldn't get it installed on my phone. I was probably doing something wrong. Is copying and pasting correct?
Have you tried wiping dalvik cache?

In what order would I do that?
Wipe the dalvik cache from recovery....then what? Try copying and pasting the new apk again? How does wiping the dalvik cache help here?
OK. I wiped the dalvik cache and then rebooted. Tried replacing my current framework-res.apk again with the new one (after setting permssions on the file first) and I still get a freeze at coping files. I might try again later with a different app with root access that can remount the /system as rw. Or maybe look into creating a update.zip and trying from recovery if that is possible.
I typically use "adb push" while in recovery (system partition must be mounted)
Good new everybody.
Looks like I fixed the Caller ID issues. At least for phone calls now.
This means that contacts stored without country code will be matched to caller ID sent by operator containing country code.
Messages seem to be handled differently (damn it) but I will try to look into it, too.

Thanks. That was part of the problem.
The other part was since it was a system apk, I signed it thinking that's what it needed but I read a comment that stated that system apks shouldn't be signed. All I had to do was make my changes, compile it, then copy over meta-inf and AndroidManifest.xml from the original to the newly compiled apk. Then, adb push was correct as you stated for system apks.
On a side note I had to manually put in my java jdk path for android's sdk by editing the \adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20130219\sdk\tools\lib\find-java.bat file with my jdk path....and I had to make sure I had the adb driver installed which was another hiccup. Once all those settled then I could use adb and apkmultitool etc worked fine.
I pushed the changed framework-res.apk to my phone verifying the changes were made and testing the light sensor values with 'GPS Status' which shows the lux...AND IT WORKED!! I can now leave the brightness on Auto and it works just fine
The change made was to framework-res.apk\res\values\arrays.xml
Changed lines 554 and 555 to be 6000 and 8000 respectively instead of 8000 and 10000.
Can you incorporate this change into the next version of GM2 C3C076?
So, new topic:
10. What files in SystemUI.apk or framework-res.apk are for the Cyanogenmod circle battery? I looked all through those two and couldn't find the graphics of the circle battery?
Thanks again!
Great I will include it in today's release.
CM circle battery is not image based. It is a self-drawing ImageView. It's in CircleBattery.smali in statusbar/policy.
It is referenced in layout xmls. The change would be easy. Just remove references from 2 xmls and remove visibility="gone" from standard battery references.
@C3C076, sir could you share how you were able to fix the Caller ID problems of your phone/rom. I currently own a ZTE V987 and have been trying to look for a fix for the same problem. I currently have android 4.1.2 Thanks!
I decided to create this thread so that people don't need to hunt through the large discussion threads.
Note that this is *not* a thread for discussing the ROM.
I will update these posts based on *confirmed* bugs. By that, I mean two or more people confirming the bug on pure cm 10.2 - not using other kernels.
Also the ROM must have had a clean install (wipe data, cache, system) and not flashed over a previous install.
It's also worth reading what CyanogenMod have to say about the 10.2 nightlies (http://www.cyanogenmod.org/blog/this-week-in-cm-aug-16-2013) as it gives you an idea of what to expect from the ROM at this stage.
ROM is available here: http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=jfltexx
The official ROM thread is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=42387383
The discussion thread is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=41851449
Only flash the ROM with the latest CWM (http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager), TWRP 2.6.0 (http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/jfltexx), or the latest PhilZ (http://d-h.st/users/philz_touch/?fld_id=16685#files)
DO NOT use earlier versions of PhilZ (prior to 5.13.9) or you will have boot (no animation, hang on updating apps) and installation (no signal, no baseband) problems.
DO NOT use TWRP 2.6.1 as it fails to flash the ROM.
First time cm 10.2 users please see post #4 for some useful tips.

Bug list
Bluetooth
(Does not affect all users and may be related to BT 4.0 devices)
No audio on BT; doesn't connect/disconnect properly.
Compass
The compass doesn't work "out of the box".
Solution:
- when first using an app requiring the compass (Google maps, GPS status, etc), the compass is "frozen" until it is calibrated (rotate the phone 2-3 times about each of its three axes).
- the compass will then move, but very erraticly, often going around in circles
- if you exit the app and then reopen it, the compass will work properly from then on.
DSP
DSP distorts sounds. This affects music play back.
Workaround: freeze DSP using TB
Mobile network modes
(Not everyone has this problem as it is language related)
- It is set to: GSM/WCDMA/LTE, but when opening the drop-down menu it selects the option LTE (which is two above GSM/WCDMA/LTE).
- Selecting some options may cause an FC.
Network operator name
Name shows correctly on the notification shade, but only numbers are shown in Settings/Wireless&Networks/Mobile networks/Network operators
Apps
Camera
- HDR doesn't produce a proper HDR image. It only takes one low exposure image.
- Some people have been getting occasional green lines on photos taken using the front-facing camera.
- In Scene or HDR mode, touching on the screen does not refocus.
- (0908 ) Video recording at 1080p will cause the phone to reboot.
- (0908 ) Exposure is locked at the value of the first photo taken (if taken without flash). Subsequent photos use the same exposure as the first photo.
Workaround: change the flash mode to automatic then change it to none. Then it will work properly. But this needs to be done each time the camera app is started.
File Manager
(1113: reintroduced ) In root access mode the bookmark for the internal SD card points to /storage/emulated/0 which doesn't exist.
Workaround: bookmark /data/media/0 or /storage/sdcard0
Terminal
- su doesn't inherit PATH if it was previously modified by export.
- Arrow keys don't work properly in su mode.
Fixed
List of fixed bugs (version fixed)
Headphone mic doesn't work (20130818 )
Phone picks up sound from the phone microphones.
Workaround: keep the phone close to you.
Home key long press (20130818 )
Changing the option in Settings/Buttons/Home Button:Long press doesn't actually change the long press behaviour of the Home button.
Key backlight (20130827)
There is no longer an option to disable the backlight on the menu and back keys.
Workaround: flash this http://db.tt/evvZLhkx. Note that if you wiped /data then you must flash this file *after* the ROM has booted for the first time.
Lock screen (20130924)
If the icons of the shortcuts are changed, they must all be changed at the same time otherwise the ones that were previously changed revert to the original app icon.
Quick Settings panel
- (0924 or earlier) Orientation tile: it doesn't lock/unlock screen rotation immediately. It needs a screen change (such as bringing up the recent app list) to take effect. (20131001)
Random reboots
(0909) Some users get random reboots.
Root cause: bug in Chrome beta. See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=45642265
SELinux status (20130818 )
Repeated taping on the SELinux status in Settings/About phone will freeze the phone and cause it to reboot after some time.
Sound recording (20131011)
Volume is very low in Sound Recorder and video recordings.
Partial workaround: use Smart Voice Recorder https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.andrwq.recorder and disable automatic gain control.
Workaround: use ktoonsez kernel and faux sound control app to increase the microphone gain.
Super user (20130815)
Does not work properly after a clean install.
Workaround: change Root access to Apps and ADB in Settings/Developer options
Apps
Camera
- No option to save to external SD card. This may be by design rather than a bug. (20130821)
Workaround: use Gallery2.apk from cm 10.1
- (1017) Note: cm are working in the camera. The camera will sometimes hang, often after using video. Force closing it results in a "Can't connect to camera" message. A reboot is required to reactivate the camera. (20131021)
File Manager (20130918 )
In root access mode the bookmark for the internal SD card points to /storage/emulated/0 which doesn't exist.
Workaround: bookmark /data/media/0
Trebuchet
- Icons in folders disappear after a while. (20130817)
Workaround: use a different launcher
- When icon labels are hidden, the label on an app will reappear if it is updated. (20131001)
Terminal
- (0918 ) In su mode, /sdcard points to /storage/emulated/legacy (/data/media/legacy), which is empty, instead of /storage/emulated/0 (/data/media/0). (20131011)
First time users
A few things you need to know:
Developer options
Only shows up in Settings when you tap 7 times on the Build number in Settings/About phone.
Reboot options on Power menu
Check Advanced reboot in Settings/Developer options.
ADB
For your PC to get ADB access, enable USB debugging in Settings/Developer options.
Watch your phone when you first run ADB and allow the PC access to your phone.
Internal SD card
With Android 4.2.2 (or was it earlier?) the internal SD card is now mounted at /data/media/0 in order to support multiple user profiles. Your files may still be in /data/media/legacy.
Sorry for repeating, but this information could be useful (cwm 6.0.3.6, cm10.2 nightly 14/08, previous firmware - cm10.1 nightly 13/08).

Workaround: change Root access to Apps and ADB in Settings/Developer options
OR
Install SuperSU from Play Store and install binaries
TB will work fine then...

Just did a clean flash. Noticed directly that LTE didn't work. It says LTE in status menu. But no LTE in data connection. Not even HSDPA. Calls and Sms works.

Went to the mall and saw LTE appears which I didn't expect to work since I've been on AOSP for a while without it. Quickly did a speed test and got 8 Mbps down and 3.5 up and this is with Sprint.

There is a bug in Trebuchet launcher. After reboot some of icons in folders simply disappear
two bugs I noticed:
Alternate action of 'long press Home button' doesn't stick (after closing settings It's back to app-switching when I long press, where I selected Search-app)
Mobile network modes set to: GSM/WCDMA/LTE, when opening the drop-down menu it selects the option LTE (which is two above GSM/WCDMA/LTE)

For me, the network modes work properly. And I don't have an LTE option on its own.

Hi all,
Just out of curiosity. I have a 3rd party app on my phone (not available on the Google Play Store, obviously)
I am currently running Android 7.0. When accessing the settings - - > apps--> theApp--> permissions where one can adjust the permissions on demand, I noted that the "Telephone" permission for this specific app cannot be switched off.
When selecting to switch it off there is the usual prompt that the app won't work as intended and I "continue anyway". The slider goes into the off position. Then when clicking back and then opening the permissions, the Telephone permissions switch is back into the on position.
What do you make of this? I have suspected that the app is "spying" somehow for quite some time. Reverse engineering on the apk itself had some very strange permissions logged in the Android Manifest file.
I would really like to hear your opinion....

With firmware device, you need to understand all the risks. Neither I nor the website is not responsible for your actions and possibly killed devices! Everything you do - you do at your own peril and risk.
Before installing the firmware, be sure to try to get into the Recovery (I have this method - I press the RESET button (RST) and hold the buttons on the front panel of the device until the buttons blink - I release the RESET button and immediately press the RESET button again for a short time 1-2 times ).
IMPORTANT!! : You cannot change the firmware versions in the system partitions - System, Vendor, ODM and Product (this is due to the fact that in 10 android these sections are dynamic and protected by the android itself from changes)- otherwise you will have a BLACK SCREEN after reboot and you will have to go to RECOVERY and reinstall the firmware from there (you can without deleting the data).
How do you know if your device is suitable for this forum thread? You can see the device in Settings - System - About device: look at the photo

Hello master,
I updated my PX30 android 9 with mod installer (from Hal9k)
I had to flash a stock android 10 rom first and let it boot (your zip was aborted with mod installer on android 9)
All is fine, I'm updating OTA paid version now.
For other users, why don't you build your own recovery to update from 9 ? (just a suggestion to update more easily and if it's possible ! :fingers-crossed: )
Thank you for great work again :good:
Sorry for double post.
After 2 days , its great rom , I really like your Mal dark launcher :good:
I have 2 problems for now :
1- no FM or AM signal (I checked everywhere my antenna is ok, I don't understand)
2- no mp3 pictures with music player. Tags are oK with songs and artists but no pictures. I downloaded Poweamp and it's perfect ( Stellio or default player from plastore don't even see mp3)
Good job
Edit: problem with volume bar too. When higher than 9, it shows only 1 instead of 10 11 ... see pic
I'm so grateful that I found this ROM!
I upgraded my ISUDAR from the stock Android 10 to your ROM few hours ago. The option to upgrade didn't pop up after inserting the SD card but it was possible to upgrade through recovery. I was a bit nervous, but it worked no problem.
My main reason for trying an alternative system was the fact that the stock is really slow, especially Spotify and Google Maps. After the upgrade, I think everything became about twice snappier. Still not 100% ideal, but way better and more usable (honestly, I regret not buying PX5, I wasn't informed).
As for hardware, I haven't found any problems. Audio works, Bluetooth works, WiFi works, GPS works, Steering Wheel buttons work (next and previous song button is swapped but that's okay, I can remap it, same problem with the original ROM). I can't test FM reception yet because my antenna is not connected (I have a Ford and haven't bought the FAKRA pigtail yet) .
I need to test it more but I think I will buy the full version from you!
Nice work!
Hi,
I have another problem with BT calls, when I call someone, discussion starts and 2/3 sec later I have black screen and bootloop
I checked BT in factory settings, the only one works is SD-BC6
BTmusic is working as it should, BT connection is ok, I don't understand
Hi, I installed the lite version so far. The ROM works fine. I have two or three issues.
1. The parking radar display does not work at all. I'm not using backup camera, I'm only using the parking radar display with the parking sensors and it does not show.
2. The Bluetooth app has a delay, when you dial it takes a few seconds untill the phone actually starts dialing.
3. When you are in a call and you have the green phone icon flashing in the down right corner, the touch screen is not responsive in the lower part.
The last two issues are common with the stock rom also. Can they be fixed?
So for the ROM feels smoother than stock A10, haven't tried bluetooth yet since I use CarPlay so I wonder if the other issues reported would also occur.
Possibily will purchase the full version too.

Nice! Than you very much. What about the Parking radar display? Is it possible to have a proper Canbus app with a proper park pilot image in full screen. For now the parking radar image with the parking sensors appears now and then.
I must report that BT Calls bug was my fault ...
Not really but the problem was my SDCard ! when I inserted my 16gb sdcard in "GPS" slot and configured "only for media and transfers", then bug was appearing and when I started a call, 2/3 sec later, unit reboots.
I found if I move my sdcard to 2nd slot (ext-sd) then I can make calls without any problem :cyclops:
So I don't know if my sdcard 16gb sandisk is buggy (it works fine on 2nd slot) or if it's bug with config sdcard program in android10
:victory:
Hello. Do the "Accessibility Options" work in this rom?

Hello I don't know
Yesterday, I had big issues when unit restarts itself after lots of popups " system not responding" or rebooting when I started to listen music, I tried to remove sdcard (w or w/o, it was the same :silly: ) I wanted to try MTCDialer but it was not a good idea
So back to android9 and waiting patiently for next update :fingers-crossed:
Finally my sdcard is not in fault and is working as it should in A9 (with mp3 tags) :good:
Hello Everyone,
I installed the LITE version and it is working perfectly except the mobile stick. I tried 3 different sticks with the same result: the signal strength icon showed up on the notification area and then dissappeard. (these sticks was working with the stock android 10 roms)

Hi,
I installed the latest full version. The system did not boot at the first boot, it went into recovery and asked for a factory default. I did the factory reset and the system eventually started. There are a few issues:
1. it seems sluggish, it doesn't seem as fast as the lite version.
2. The unit does not go into autosleep, even if it is set to go into autosleep. This is very annoying.
3. Every time the system boots, it doesn't see the usb. I have to unplug the data stick and reconnect it in order to make it visible to the system.
4. At every boot it doesn't keep the mod settings. For instance, I set it to hide the status bar, but after the boot it is not hidden, even if the setting is set to hide it.
5. The issue with the Bluetooth call is still present, when I try to make a call it takes seconds until it actually starts making the call.
6. Please fix the issue with the lower part of the touch screen, wich is not working during the calls.
Hi, where can I find the download link for Lite version? I wanted to download Android 9 Malaysk Rom. For that I found link and instructions. In this topic I did’t find. Or maybe I’m just blind

Yes, I’m blind. Found it
New phone, Pixel 5. Trying to disable the annoying shutter noise when a picture is taken. Phone is rooted (and confirmed with rootchecker), can access the root dir. Found the camera sound file (to replace with silent audio file).
No file browser I've tried (5+ of them) will let me change the permissions so I can write to the folder/file. It's moved in Android 11 to root/product/media/audio/ui
Any way to change the permissions there?
