INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:​Since YouTube v14.41.52, Google has moved to split APKs format. The Android package installer doesn't support Split apks yet, so we are now using Vanced manager for installing all vanced apps. The steps to use the vanced manager are below:​Especially for MIUI, there's a separate guide that can be accessed using this link. For all other devices, please follow below:
For Non-Root:
Install Vanced Manager
Open Vanced Manager and tap the blue arrow in the lower right corner.
Begin installing Vanced microG. (Without which you won't be able to install Vanced (or Music Vanced) or use login)
Then install Vanced (or Music Vanced), log in to your account and enjoy!
For Root:
Install Vanced Manager
Open Vanced manager and tap on the "Magisk" icon to grant root permissions.​
Once you are in, begin installing Vanced (or Music Vanced).​
Important information:​
We replaced our root installation with vanced manager, which directly mounts vanced on top of Youtube in the /data/app directory, making it easier and faster than before.
Vanced will not block ads while casting since when you use the casting feature, it doesn't send the video from your phone to the Chromecast/TV. Instead, your phone acts like a remote controller for the youtube app in your Chromecast/TV. That is why the advertisement is displayed.
Purchasing items in the non-root version of the app will not work as microG doesn't support it. Hence, it is preferable to use the original YouTube app or using the web version for any purchase.
If your videos are lagging or the application starts to crash while watching live videos, please enable VP9 codec from codec override present under vanced settings. Google forced the ExoPlayer v2, which is highly experimental and unstable on unsupported devices.
YouTube has dropped support for Android 5 (Lollipop) with v17.xx.xx. Hence, the minimum supported version is now Android 6 and above.
Known bugs:​
Swipe down gesture for refreshing home feed breaks randomly. It's an issue with litho that only Google can fix. There's nothing we can do to fix it. (Tap here to learn more)
As of v16.16.38, casting won't work due to an upstream microG bug. (Tap here to learn more)
On portrait/vertical videos, preferred quality options do not work.
Swipe controls triggers when swiping either upwards or downwards to scroll through description or in live chat when in landscape mode.
On new action bar layouts(server-sided feature), the new toggles won't work.
Info cards toggle is broken (Temp fix: Disable it through your Google account settings. This setting disables info cards everywhere.)
App crashes with java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError while playing some video outside of vanced.
Manual codec override is broken and very experimental.
Some users might face geographical ads on YouTube Shorts tab.
SponsorBlock segments at the end of videos in playlists causes playback on the next video to start where the previous one ended.

BUG Reports:​
Steps to do before reporting a bug:
Do a search and see if it has already been reported
Check that the bug is actually a Vanced bug and doesn't happen in the original YouTube.
Steps to do when reporting a bug:
Make sure you are being enough descriptive of the problem.
Take a logcat (Google search if you don't know how). Especially if the issue is a crash.
Taking pictures of the problem doesn't hurt.
If the report is vague (missing information), it will most likely just be ignored. If you are not going to show any effort in resolving the problem, why should I?
Bug report template:
Vanced exact version number (Do NOT say latest).
Download link used to download Vanced.
Installation method (whether user SAI or Vanced Manager)
Device.
ROM (optional may not help).
Any applied Substratum/swift overlays.
Logs if there are any crashes/force closes (upload to Pastebin or hastebin or katbin) and paste the link of it with your report. [Check here to know how to get logs]

Good job guys!
Non-root FAQ:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=79661381&postcount=10743
Microphone permission not found:
If you're wondering why there is no microphone permission in the root version of Vanced, that's because the APK used to modify Vanced (minAPI17) is missing the microphone permission. The other APK has it (minAPI21) but that lacks the translation. Why? Ask Google ?*
Workaround: use the non-root variant, or stock YouTube
App not appearing in app drawer:
If YT Vanced app is not visible in your app drawer, follow these steps:
• Install regular YouTube app from the Google Play Store
• Open the app until your front page shows up (not sure if this is necessary. Just reconstructing what's been working for others all the time).
• Go to Settings > Apps > YouTube. It should show "Uninstall" on the top left. DO NOT Uninstall! Just see if it says that there!
• Reboot
• Go to Settings > Apps > YouTube. Now it should say "Disable" or "Deactivate". DO NOT Uninstall! Just see if it says that there!
• In the same menu; tap on the three dot menu button on the upper right corner and tap on "Remove/Uninstall Updates".
Now the YT Vanced app should show in your launcher.

Try making sure system is checked under mount in TWRP. If that's already I checked I found rebooting to recovery over and over till it isn't all correctly also works. I think it's just some kind of bug with TWRP.

When I tried flash it few days ago, twrp showed me "apk file doesn't exist". Check how mb has this zip. You should install it via magisk or create in system/app, "YouTube" folder and give it 755 permissions. Next move YouTube.apk file to this folder and give it 644 permissions. Last step is reboot.

Do you have the APK in internal storage? Probably should put the zip there too?
Did you unzip and rezip by any chance?

Thanks! Installed magisk module black, but apparently it's white.

Software Development [CLOSED] [ROM] [CUSTOM] [INTEL JOYING] GTX joying ROM V9a3 2018-04-22

========================================ACHTUNG===================
=================WARNING==========================================
=====================================================PELIGRO=======
AS WITH ANY UNSUPPORTED SYSTEM MODIFICATIONS, USING THIS MAY LEAD TO A BRICK
IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING ( HAVEN'T BRICKED MY SYSTEM YET! ) PLEASE
BE AWARE THAT NO ONE ON THE INTERNET IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR
UNIT. ANY PROBLEMS WILL BE CONSIDERED ACTS OF WHATEVER GOD YOU BELIEVE IN.
======PELIGRO=======================================================
================================WARNING============================
===ACHTUNG=========================================================
For FYT SoM (5009/6011/6021/6022/6023) based JOYING / Intel SoFIA units ONLY!
Hello, here is a custom rom based on the SYU Stock Build [sofia3gr_car_64-userdebug 6.0.1 MMB29M eng.bsp.20180110.181524 release-keys]
Your Head Unit MUST ALREADY BE ROOTED! You must be able to obtain Super User access within Android!
Due to Bluetooth, WiFi, and as well as nvram patches in the ROM and bootloader, you must be running Joying 6.0 firmware dated 2017_12_15 or later to install this ROM.
Why this ROM? Simple answer: It's makes your Head Unit faster than running the stock ROM's, has updated Google Apps, and has the bloat removed! It's pre-rooted also!
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
Step 1: Unzip the contents to the root of your USB flash drive on your computer, then plug the flash drive into the Joying unit via USB.
Step 2. Use the Android helper application "custom" to install. Download from link below, either on the Head Unit itself, OR on PC and transfer using ADB. Once installed, open the program, and grant superuser privileges when prompted, you'll be presented with screen as here:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Step 3: Click INSTALL CUSTOM. Wait for output to say recovery successfully installed!
If you wish to preserve your /data, AKA dirty-flash, click on "Do not wipe data" at this point to prevent your data partition from being wiped.
ALL EXISTING DATA ON UNIT WILL BE ERASED. THIS IS A CLEAN INSTALLATION!
Step 4: click REBOOT TO INSTALL GTX ROM - Your Joying unit will reboot, and installation will automatically proceed through TWRP.
(NOTE! The ROM automatically re-installs stock recovery during installation, so if something goes wrong, you can always restore to the original JOYING firmware.)
Recovery options:
RESTORE STOCK - Restores the original stock recovery
INSTALL CUSTOM - Installs superdave's custom recovery (needed to install this ROM)
VERIFY RECOVERY - tells you which recovery you have installed
Rom Utilities:
(all options on this menu work only if you have custom recovery installed)
"Do Not Wipe Data" Switch - enable this to prevent your /data partition from being wiped when installing the ROM. (Your results may vary. Works for me!)
REBOOT TO TWRP - Reboots to TWRP home screen allowing you to do things
INSTALL GTX ROM- installs joying_gtx stock rom from installation media
Exit - exit custom

Reserved for TWRP instructions.
Q / A:
Q: Do I need to worry about what MCU version I have before I use your rom?
A: Maybe, GTX ROM doesn't touch the MCU, which shouldn't be re-flashed with each install anyway as it usually doesn't change. Whatever MCU version you have, this ROM will work for you, as long as you have an FYT based SoM unit. If you encounter errors, you might need to change the "ro.build.fytmanufacturer" property in /system/app/fyt.prop to match whatever your unit ORIGINALLY came with.
Q: I have a RK3066/RK3188/PX3/PX5 based head unit. Will this ROM work for me?
A: NO! This ROM ONLY works on FYT based head units. This means all Joying Intel units, as well as some from other brands.
Q: I like Live Wallpapers. How do I enable them?
A: Use the built in terminal. type su and hit enter. You now have root. then type in:
Code:
cp -R /system/vendor/oem/LiveWall* /system/app
hit enter again, then reboot!
Q: I don't want to use this ROM anymore, what do i do?
A: Use the helper application, custom, open the program, and click RESTORE STOCK. This will restore the STOCK RECOVERY. Go on Joying's website [link], download the firmware of your choice, and follow their instructions.
Q: Can I use google voice to make hands free calls?
A: You sure can. Use the "Voice Search" app to dial a number using your voice, once at the Google App screen, click on the hamburger menu, and then select GV CallHandler 4 Joying. Make sure your unit is set to a DPI of at least 161dpi or greater, and then clear data on the google app. After you reboot, you should be able to make calls.
Q: How do I view my front camera?
A: If you are using the analog RCA video input, on the back of the unit, you can use the RIGHT CAMERA app to view. Note, than unlike the AUX program, this one will NOT mute the system audio.
Q: How can I fix my GPS speed to calculate 1/kmh or 1/mph steps instead of the default 4 steps?
A: Go to XPOSED INSTALLER, and enable the GPSSpeedFix module. Reboot, and the steps will be fixed.
Q: How can I enable different DPI settings for each application?
A: Go to XPOSED INSTALLER, and enable the App Settings module. Exit the installer, and open the App Settings to make your adjustments. Reboot, and your changes will be visible.
Q: This ROM is fast, but I want more speed, what do I do?
A: Add a fan to your unit, preferably a FAN + Heatsink. Then download an app like SetCPU to lock your CPU to MAX speed. Be careful.
Q: How do I re-assign the hard keys on my unit? Joying says that DVD and EJECT don't work! Is this a lie?
A: Yes! There is a way to re-assign keys, and the DVD and EJECT keys do actually work, the software that comes with the unit is not very good. Check @surfer63's XSofiaTweaker thread for more info on how this works.
Q: I want to send and receive my text messages on my Joying unit...is this possible?
A: Sure! Use third party app like Pulse, or Pushbullet. Works like a charm. I personally use Pulse, it's got the look and feel of a stock SMS app.
Q: Installing the Joying Factory Rom takes like an hour...multiple reboots, then it starts over, then it reboots, then it optimizes apps, then it starts over, again. jeez. How long does your ROM take to install?
A: Installation is less than 4 minutes. First boot is timed at one minute 53 seconds, and there are no crashes or reboots. It just works.
Q: Xposed says there is an update available! Is it safe to update Xposed?
A: NO! Do NOT update Xposed, it will make your unit non-functional! Just say NO!
Q: Am I able to "upgrade" from an earlier version of the ROM to a newer without loosing my data and apps?
A: Yes, read the first post on what option to select in custom. Many others and I have tested, and it works for almost all people, still there is a chance that it could not work.
Q: I need to download the stock Joying firmware so I may use your ROM! Where do I get the latest updates?
A: See here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1nF5Pgn95_WWGk8S2byb8rR5ko0ss5F_S
Q: is there a video where I can see you install the ROM?
A:
Issues:
-Unable to send text message via google voice app using Pulse SMS, error is "Message couldn't be sent" // If anyone has a fix for this, please let us know
-Google Assistant doesn't work, launching activity manually results in "The Google Assistant doesn't work on this device" / You can fix this by changing the resolution to at least 720. use the command wm size to change the screen resolution or another tool that can change DPI

Actually it is one and the same app with different screen-layouts and functionality depending on the hardware.
The digital amp software is included.

As soon as I have time I will try this rom
the russian hackers at 4pda are using the following build.prop mods, anyone care to chime in? if they actually do something, I will include them.

ro.wifi.channels=14
media.stagefright.enable-http=true
media.stagefright.enable-player=true
media.stagefright.enable-meta=true
media.stagefright.enable-scan=false
I have no idea about the build props.
The custom V3 app did install the recovery image in one go. I do not know whether you improved something or the previous time was a glitch on my system when it gave that verification error.
I installed the V3 ROM. It works fine. It seems indeed faster than the original joying stock rom.
From what date are the GAPPS? The unit is trying to update all gapps. It is not really useful to have everything pre-odexed for a quick start (and it really is a quick start), when it immediately starts updating once you have finished the Google account setup.
(I myself also prefer the GAPPS micro package. I don't need and want google photos, youtube, google fit, etc. on my head unit.)
My JET apk is only partly working. At this moment I do not know why.
Replacing apps with mods (radio, BT, sofiaserver) works again now the apps are installed in /system/app
Copying the launcher.sh to /data does work. The launcher.sh works with the SofiaServer keymod as well as with the Xposed module sofiaservercustomkeymod (the one that uses the launcher.sh).
Installing a newer version ór installing one of the xposed modules currently doesn't work as it requires the package installer. The default package installer has been replaced by the googlepackageinstallers from the gapps. As such I can easily work around it by simply writing the apps to their folder in /system/apps. As soon as I upload my modules to the global xposed repository it is no problem anymore anyway as the Xposed installer can install it. I will still looking into why that one can install and my app not. I will also uninstall the google installer and replace it with the default package installer and see what happens.
And with regard to the customkeymod xposed module with settings screen: The settings screen itself works fine, but I still can't use the settings from my app. They stay empty.
Ok, if you think the microgapps is lighter I can cook that in.

You might even consider nano or pico gapps and let users just install whatever else they need manually.
I'll do nano on v4 release which will be out tonight.

Is Viper4Android working on this ROM?
Some time ago you said that you will investigate why is not working on the stock Joying but you never returned with an answer, can you please share your findings if you have any?
Thank you !

[Root] 5/5T Dynamic Change Library for GCam without Breaking OOS Cam. {DEPRECATED}

{DEPRECATED}
This project won't release a new version because I see no reason for that since modified lib v.2.3 is working fine on OP5/5T without breaking OOS functionality.
Hi guys,
After intensive try. I’ll glad to tell you that I just found the way to fix GCam Front facing camera portrait mode without using Magisk module. (which break Face Unlock functionality in OOS)
Instead, my method will dynamic change library only when needs to use GCam and you can revert to default binary, then you still can use Face Unlock.
THIS MOD WAS TESTED WITH OXYGEN OS OREO ONLY
Warning:
Your warranty is now void.
I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, your phone won’t boot. Use it at your own risk
Prerequisite:
1. Root with Magisk (My app/script only test with Magisk)
2. Busybox NDK (Magisk Module)
3. My file.
4. Disable all lib fix module. (prevent confliction)
5. Recommended Gcam APK: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-arnova8G2/
How to:
Ver 3.5.1
1. Download my file here View attachment FixGCam-by-aillez-Unified-V.3.5.1.zip and don't move to another folder. (should be in Download folder or XDA folder)

4. Open the app and tab Read me/Tutorial button and read it first.
5. Tab Create required file button.
6. Wait until it shows toast about "Required file has been created"
7. Auto-Mode is Fix binary and automatic revert after screen off. (It'll ask for root permission)
8. Manual Fix and Revert is for a user who wants to trigger it by their design time. (It'll ask for root permission)
9. Pick GCam dialog will show after you fix binary (either Auto-Mode or Manual) PS. Only supported for Pixel2Mod and Pixel3Mod by Arnova8G2
10. If you think this mod helps your life better and it worth for some donation. Please help donate
Troubleshooting.
1. If you get "Archive not found" when tab Create required file >>> Download My file first.
2. If you get "You don't have a required file" >>> Tab Create required file button.
3. If you get "Busybox not found" >> Install it.
4. If Create required file doesn't say anything to you. (report by some users).
You need to create a folder name "FixGCam-by-aillez" in internal storage and extract file from archive to there. (As a workaround) Folder structure should be like this.
and you should not tab Create required file.
5. After I fix binary Gcam still don't work/Capture Pink image. What should I do?
Sometimes Gcam already running before change library and load default binary. Fc Gcam and try again will help.
Updated: Should be fixed in V.3.5.1

how do I Import project??please make a step by step video of how to install or atleast write a step by step guide please
Hey! It works amazingly well....
So, I was thinking about triggering the revert task to exiting Gcam rather than screen off. The only problem is that it detects exiting Gcam if you go view your photos from within the camera app. I can't figure out how to make it work. Anyone with more Tasker knowledge know how to make this work... I.e. tie the fix to launching the app, then get it to revert on closing the app? I know there are downsides either way really.
Working great! Thanks ?

I use Nova launcher and I've set it so that if I swipe over the Gcam icon, it launches the Tasker fix. I modified the Tasker fix to launch the app after it successfully patches. So to run Gcam I swipe. To use it again before I turn off the screen I just tap the icon.
in my case the camera app doesn't take any picture in portrait mode with the front camera
No errors when the task is execute and works well the restore for the face unlock...but I can't take the photo
OB3 + Arnova's v6_beta15
EDIT: It's necessary to enabled hdr+ front camera
Thank you very much man I really prefer face unlock over fingerprint and I often use my camera (thank God we have gcam to replace stock camera) and it was a pain to have to reboot to get either gcam or face unlock.
It's working for me on OB3 with arnova Cam and other version of gcam.
Good to see it's working for you
I'll try to write a script to run without needs of Tasker since not everyone using Tasker.
But I can't give you ETA.

FAQ​A: Player becomes laggy!
B: I cannot fix bad processor of FiiO M7. Lags because you start use player another way. You update FiiO Music, install Playstore. Apps require more performance hardware. Try reinstall with old FiiO Music and without Gapps
A: How to go back to original firmware
B: You can easily go back flashing stock rom for FiiO M7 from here - M7 Firmware or for fiio M6 from here - M6 Firmware. Just flash it from recovery like my firmware
A: Why, when entering Magisk, there is a notification about an additional installation?
B: Since the magisk was installed "by hand", he did not unpack the files he needed to the Data section. To fix the problem without the module and install this module
A: Why is there only only my language in the keyboard?
B: Settings - Language & input - Virtual keyboard - Simple keyboard - Language
Uncheck the system languages and put them in the languages you need
A: Stuck on logo/bootloop!
B: Hold the power and pause button, after the screen turns off, press the button down, in recovery, select Wipe data.
Thanks for this, though I've been meaning around with it, magisk doesn't provide proper root, no root apps request and get granted root ever. Am I missing something?

Did you select magisk app in installer? You have M6 or M7?
tried this on a m9 and no luck im afraid, just stuck at the fiio logo on bootup, left for 30 mins, rebooted to recovery and wiped data again, left for an hour and no difference.

M6, it seems userdata doesn't mount so the magisk data files don't install. You have the correct platform etc for mounting, but I'm not sure why it fails. Otherwise it all works great.

Just tried today's version but it dows not install.
after installing statrs after 2 or 3 seconds it reboots
I seem to have the same issue as Mentalmuso and Paris333; Magisk isn't giving out root permissions on the M6. When I try to flash module.zip via the modules tab in the magisk manager app I get:
Code:
! Unsupported/Unknown image format
! Installation failed
The magisk debug log is only full of:
Code:
su: request from pid={XXXXX}
su: request from uid={XXXXX}
su: request rejected (XXXXX)
for all of the root applications I tried to test it with
but when I go to the "superuser" tab it aggravatingly says "No app has asked for superuser permission yet."
My magisk app is the default non-updated version installed via the proshi_m6_en aroma installer. I did do full factory reset via the debug menu and followed all instructions, so the installation is very clean. Everything that doesn't need root works perfectly fine, xposed even shows up as active. I've tried a few things, like updating to the new v22 magisk app via the v22 magisk manager, but I always just run into the same boot.img unsupported error as above. Maybe I've missed something, let me know if you need anything tested, as I do have a few M6 to play around with that I don't mind bricking.
On an unrelated note: your paypal says you are not accepting payments.

try installing magisk manager v7.5.1 , im using that one with success. Getting root access now. I think half of it is actually the super lag we are getting with having play store, i have put together a very stripped down version of the stock firmware, removed a load of useless apps that all take up precious ram. I am simply downloading my preferred streaming app (deezer) and a couple of other useful apps (terminal, root explorer, magisk manager) and storing them all on my ext sdcard to install after clean install. I seem to be having a pretty fluid experience now.
anyone can fix da M9 file? it does not install any file to the device...

_____________________________________________________
Are you wondering whether it is safe to use?
Spoiler: Read Safety Note
Is it safe to use?
This whole project is open source. So, yeah, it is safe, just like any other app installed from the playstore.
[Make sure you installed the MRVPatch Manager from the official github link]
Is it safe for your Facebook account?
Absolutely, that's why you need to install ChatHeadEnabler. It enables chathead in a clean way with a method provided by Facebook internally.
What safety measures are taken for apk files?
The manager downloads your selected app from various apk servers and verifies it against the original facebook signature, which makes sure you are patching an official app pulled from the playstore. It will prevent you from installing any unsafe apps if the verification process is failed.
Spoiler: Problems and Solutions
Note: This patch doesn't mess with original messenger code, that means any feature related bug you experience is probably from messenger itself (or maybe from your ROM). You should try different messenger versions in that case.
If something is wrong with the patch, it will crash or simply chat head will not work.
Here are some known issues that are not caused by this patch:
-> Screen freezes for 1-2 seconds whenever interact with chat head?
This is due to security restriction of A12.
Solution (PC Required):
-> Go to "Developer options". (find from your phone Settings)
-> Enable "USB debugging" option
-> Enable "USB debugging (Security settings)" option [for MIUI].
-> Run this adb command from PC:
Code:
adb shell settings put global block_untrusted_touches 0
[If you don't know how to use adb command, please find a tutorial from xda or youtube]
-> Facebook links are not opening in facebook app?
Solution (PC Required):
-> Go to "Developer options". (find from your phone Settings)
-> Enable "USB debugging" option
-> Run this adb command from PC:
Code:
adb shell pm set-app-links --package com.facebook.katana 1 all

I have found you dont even need an alternate app, just go to your phone settings find display over other apps and enable it for messenger. You will automatically get chat heads instead of Bubbles

Hello,try this:
-open Messenger
-tap on your profile (top left)
-scroll down
-enable Chat Heads toggle
This worked thanks alot! I hope you will push to create the app that you mentioned that would patch(one click) the latest fb and messenger app.
So that we'll still have the latest versions of the apps(fb & messenger) while maintaining the chat head function.
All while waiting for messenger to fix it with android 11.

No, the OEM Messenger doesn't work for me. I'm still using the patched one.
Hello, it appears Messenger (332.0.0.11.117) does not patch correctly using the Self Patching Instructions.
(infinite crashing loop upon startup, must revert to self patched Messenger (330.0.0.12.116)
Messenger (332.0.0.11.117) - September 29, 2021.
Messenger (330.0.0.12.116) - September 21, 2021.
I am able to patch the new Facebook (337.0.0.32.118) properly with no issues at all, it seems the newest Messenger update has been /Zuckerburged/.
I am currently running Messenger (330.0.0.12.116) just fine with no issues (minus the weird chat head cropping issues that I believe is just facebook being facebook). - issue occurs on my siblings Samsung s10+ (native chat heads)
I am unsure what to do as I am only reporting an issue and have tried installing it different methods which simply do not work with Messenger (332.0.0.11.117) - September 29, 2021.
as a result I am sticking with Messenger (330.0.0.12.116) - September 21, 2021. (working)
UNTIL FACEBOOK FORCE REMOVES THE EDITING BUTTON DUE TO "OUTDATED" APP.
Thank you for your hard work, it is much appreciated!

Yes, this is the first time it has happened.
It will not work at all beyond Messenger (330.0.0.12.116).
I am unsure of the cause.
I patch through PowerShell as Command Prompt sometimes throws zipping errors. (but seems to patch fine)

It might be due to weird file naming system of Windows.

Can you share the steps you used to get microG to work? I am having a hard time getting them to work on LOS 18.1 and This ROM as well!

Well the steps can be different on Los 18.1 because Signature spoofing is not built in to Los but it is on Crdroid which makes it was less of a pain because you don't need Xposed for things to work correctly.
So starting with Crdroid go about your normal setup and install Magisk per normal. Afterwards you're going to need to select a package from this link normally minimalAP or the Standard package should be just fine. These packages have everything you need to get MicroG working with the Google Play store the only difference between minimal is Aurora Services and the location backends which a tablet doesn't necessarily need but it depends on what you use it for.
After flashing this through recovery follow these steps..
Initial Setup:
- Complete the setup wizard actions as you prefer
- Open the app drawer and long-press on Play Store to choose the App Info button
- Go to Permissions, then Additional permissions and change Spoof package signature to Allow, go back to home screen afterward
- Run the microG Settings app — The rest of these instructions are taken almost directly from https://gitlab.com/Nanolx/NanoDroid/-/blob/master/doc/microGsetup.md
- Choose Self-Check at the top of the list, and start tapping on the second item, System grants signature spoofing permission which should prompt a permission request
- Everything should now be checked on the Self-Check screen, go back to main microG Settings screen
- Choose Google device registration and enable the Register device switch, then go back
- Choose Cloud Messaging and enable the Receive push notifications switch, then go back
- SafetyNet doesn't actually work or pass right now, but you can try enabling it in the same manner as above
- Choose Location modules and enable at least one "Network-based Geolocation module" and one "Address lookup module". I usually only turn on Deja Vu Location Service from the top list; it seems to work well enough for driving directions here, and of course choose Nominatim from the lower list because it's the only one there
- This is important: Reboot now before you add a Google account or do anything else to the Play Store app
- After rebooting, go back into microG Settings app and make sure that all of the Self-Check items are still checked, and then make sure that Google Device Registration, Cloud Messaging, and SafetyNet are still enabled — if they were not, enable them.
- Now get app info for Play Store, clear cache (yes, again), then launch the app
- Add your Google account, and verify that it will show your app library — Purchased apps won't show as paid-for yet, this will take approximately 24 hours until Google decides it likes your new Android ID
- Open Settings app, then Accounts then choose your Google account, then chose Personal info & privacy, and make sure Allow apps to find accounts is enabled
- That should be everything!
Then after a few hours (a day or so) you should have complete access to you paid apps and you're good to go. Let me know if you need anything else!

you need to use the Exkernel to enable dt2w. Here's the latest one: Link.
I am running an old 7.0 Resurrection ROM on my N7.
TWRP is installed & bootloader unlocked so I suspect I would just need to repartition & install?
No clue why ADBgives me these errors in powershell.
fastboot : The term 'fastboot' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program.
Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.

For those who have partition with a different method like me that is NOT flox so they can flash other ROMs, replace this in the ROM zip. All I did was remove assert get prop that checks to make sure your tablet is the right one for the ROM. It won't flash if you're not using flox repartition so I changed it to allow it to flash. I have 1.6gb of system space and am able to flash this ROM, opengapps pico, magisk and custom kernel with no issues running a non flox repartition.

Hi!
In the known issues I descrived:
When scanning the face unlock the camera shows left side of video Ok but right side darkened, cameras seem to work ok on other apps.
Can anybody please confirm that this is happening also for you?
And if you know why it is failing or even better, how to fix it... that would be great
Thanks in advance.

Hello all,
I follow the guides and the installation went smoothly, thanks for the really good job you've done.
I'm new in the crDroid world so sorry if the question seems stupid: As the power button of the Nexus 7 is not easy to access, how can I activate the double tap to wakeup ?
Some years ago the tablet was installed with aicp, and the DT2W was working. So I'm a little bit disappointed if it is not working now.
Thanks.

If you have a patch or pointer to the code that makes it work... just let me know and I'll try to add it.
I'm testing a patch for the charge current to be shown ok, seems to work, if all the tests are ok I'll ship it in with the next release.
No I don't have any patch to propose, I just followed the links provided by @lyushiK.
As far I understood, to work you have to recompile a kernel with DT2W hability and you have to activate it with the right flag in the kernel.
From my side what I've done:
Installed Magisk (patched boot.img)
Installed this kernel: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=7161016148664820402
And to finish added to magisk this module: https://github.com/ipdev99/mModule_dt2w
Reboot and it works !
In Magisk I see the module is looking in /sys/ for "doubletap*" or "dt2w*" or "wake_gesture".
If it found one of the files then activate it (echo 1 in the file)
But still, you have to have the right kernel !
Thanks very much, this Rom is so smooth and running great. The only thing I've noticed is that the icon size and text is very small when using the tablet in landscape mode but fine in portrait mode. Any changes I make to the icon size from the settings apply in portrait but when switched to landscape stay as really small, is there any setting I have missed to enlarge them?
Thank you for the great work!
Just for feedback: I can confirm the camera issue, too, though it doesn't bother me.
Another small thing I noticed: during the initial setup my device was called Pixel 6 Pro (first I thought, I chose the wrong image) but in the settings it says correctly "Nexus 7".
