HD8 2018 6.3.1.5 (and 6.3.1.4) issues
HD8 2018 OS continues to present never ending issues (seems like a poorly supported product compared to the earlier Fires ...)
I flashed 6.3.1.5 (6.3.1.4) on top of 6.3.1.2 via TWRP (+Magisk/systemless Xposed), and, ended up with a weird WiFi crashloop that took a few tries to understand. Essentially, the moment it connects to a WiFi network, it reboots. If I set WiFi to off, it's stable (have to do it quick before it connects after a reboot!). If I disable Xposed module, it's stable. Neither Xposed 89.3 or 90beta work correctly.
On 6.3.1.2 Xposed worked more or less OK.
I tried to downgrade back to OS 6.3.1.2 or 6.3.0.1, but apparently the settings are not compatible once you load 6.3.1.4 on it. It never reaches the launcher, and keeps sitting at Fire screen. I could not even boot 6.3.1.2 or 6.3.0.1 without Magisk. Doing a factory reset was not in my plan yet. So I had to go to 6.3.1.4 again where it booted fine. I now run 6.3.1.4 with Xposed disabled.
Anybody has 6.3.1.4 with Xposed & WiFi working properly out there? I wonder if this is also a similar issue with Fire 7 2019 (mustang) - @Michajin
HD10 2017 40.6.5.0_user_650601220 issues
Well, what do you know ... I finally took the plunge to do the unlock and install TWRP on my Kingoroot rooted HD10 2017 (thanks @k4y0z !). I backed up all the apps via Titanium Backup, and then backed up the internal sdcard via Total Commander to a zip, which later nicely restores things back with the proper timestamps (yay!). It's very difficult to restore timestamps, but Total Commander with root can do it.
In my optimism, after getting TWRP, I immediately installed the latest FireOS, 40.6.5.0_user_650601220, with Magisk, and Xposed installed into system (xposed-v89-sdk22-arm64.zip). And, just like HD8 2018, the moment I activated Xposed modules, the tablet started rebooting when WiFi was on. If I managed to hit WiFi off button before it did so, it seemed stable. So both HD10 2017 and HD8 2018 appear to have the same Xposed bug in the latest FireOS versions!!! I wonder if it's related to the fix of MTK-SU issue.
I also ran into Google Play & battery drain issues. Tired of several attempts of troubleshooting, I actually ended up backtracking all the way to 40.6.2.6_user_626533320, which is the version I started with. Once Google Play went south after my 1st restore, I could not fix it over multiple tries, and I had to do a Factory reset again and restore apps via Titanium Backup a bit more carefully, starting with the latest versions of Google Play apps without data (rather than just all at once). Now everything appears to be working as before, with TWRP, and the same old FireOS version that I already had
The battery drain issue was an interesting one, apparently, Vanced Youtube helper app, microg_YouTube_Vanced_0.2.6.17455, creates a lot of battery drain via needless Wakelocks, which can be fixed by running the following commands:
Code:
adb shell
su
pm disable com.mgoogle.android.gms/org.microg.gms.people.ContactSyncService
P.S. A week ago I unlocked HD8 2017 (OS version 50.6.3.6_user_636558520), and successfully cloned HD8 2016 to this 2017 via TiBa & Total Commander. That attempt went without a glitch, and that's why I thought I could also do HD10 in no time, but HD10 gave me all kinds of issues.

you will have to refresh me where i had on the mustang. I am using los 16.0 on the hd8, dont really have a need for xposed. Seems like i had this on the mustang right after root when on stock? i will look into it and try and refresh myself if you cant point me into the thread...

I am trying to remember but it seems i had to flash full xposed from TWRP. I think i had issues with the systemless version from magisk. I didn't know people would chose to run FIRE-OS once anything else was available (no offense) with 14.1 and 16, both being decent... lol

You have a point here regarding LoS I thought I was gaining stability by sticking to FireOS, but this version has been anything but stable!
I need Skype to work - is the camera working in either LoS 14.1 or 16? The issue is that some of these ROMs seem to be in eternal beta, once the low hanging fruit is done, the polish is not applied further.

The camera works on both 16.0 and 14.1. But 14.1 is by far more stable at this time. Bluetooth and headphones (plus more- see thread) issues on 16.0. The only issue on 14.1 is the headphone jack doesn't work (but i think someone has found a fix for it but it hasnt been updated in the rom). Backup in TWRP and install 14.1 and give it a shot, i am on 16.0. 14.1 was working really smooth. I have not tested skype on either. 14.1 seemed smoother and less buggy than fireOS right at Beta.

Observation regarding custom ROMs is one reason I typically hang with 'stock' and tune to my liking. LOS 14.1 for this device/gen (and a few others) is an exception; worth considering. LOS 16.1 is less refined ATM with no meaningful advantage over 14.1.

I needed to have headphones working, so I didn't try LOS 14 until recently. I'm extremely happy with it. It's so much snappier than stock for me, and videos load so much faster, like in Netflix, for example. I'm also using Magisk and Xposed with no issues.
I didn't realize the new build is up with fixes... Going back to 14.1, I think he is working on 17.0 (Kaijones23) 17.0 was updated last night....

Noob question - how do you flash lineage-16 or cm-14.1 onto the device? I downloaded the zip files from the link above, but they are way to small to be a complete rom. Is there a different location where I can download the roms?

Have you unlocked the bootloader (prerequisite):
https://forum.xda-developers.com/hd...nlock-fire-hd-8-2018-karnak-amonet-3-t3963496
I have unlocked the bootloader, for which I had to open the tablet up in order to short a pin. I was able to load the FireOS 6.0.0.0 and 6.0.0.1, and was looking if there is a way to load 6.0.1.2 or 6.0.1.4, when I came upon this thread, and saw that it may be possible to load lineage or cm, but I don't know how to get my hands on the ROMs. The downloads from the links above are way too small.

Supposedly renaming .bin to .zip allows flashing from twrp. I'd be wary of other partitions such as recovery and aboot which could trigger a bad day.
Headphone fix for LOS 14 has been applied in the latest version of the ROM. If you don't feel like reflashing entire ROM, there is a flashable zip containing only the headphone fix (module). I don't have the links handy but it's all available on this forum.
Updated post #1 and described HD10 '17 Xposed WiFi crashloop as well.
Updated with the same HD8 2018 6.3.1.5 WiFi/Xposed issue.

Hi all,
I'm looking for a custom rom that still has builds available from before the Nov 2016 security update.
Very specifically, I'm looking to run xposed and still passing safetynet, the last time I was able to do that was running an OS version that was that old. I was running CM 13 at the time, however I can't find an osprey build of CM mirrored somewhere from that time...
Any suggestions?
Edit: I still have a .zip file for a version of CM from before then, however it's for a different device... How different are the builds? Could it conceivably work? (other device is a Xiaomi Mi5)
I don't think you understand how safetynet works... it will autoupdate itself and it checks an online database, it doesn't matter if your ROM is prior to november 2016 or not.

That may well, be, but until I recently changed from my old version of CM 13 to LineagOS, I could run pokemon go with xposed installed! I no longer can...
I'd like to at least try it again, hence need either an old mirror of CM builds, or another custom ROM that keeps available old builds...

You can try, you need CM13 (or other Marshmallow base ROM), CM14 is Nougat based and uses a more advanced Safetynet API... In the Pixel with Nougat, just having an unlocked bootloader but otherwise purely stock will not allow a SafetyNet API verification, but I can't say it's the same for other devices.
Most custom ROMs don't work with Xposed anyway, it isn't supported so other than finding someone with an old CM13 build around you might be out of luck.

I use LOS, when I want to play Pokemon I just boot into recovery and flash the unroot zip. When I'm done, just root again. Sure it takes a couple minutes, but you get the best of both worlds.

I can play pogo on my rooter LOS device without a problem. Magisk takes care of it perfectly, no flashing required. Xposed is another story though!

I'm level 10 Ingress (played since the beta)
This is not a guide as such but more of direction to other peoples hard work and effort. I am not a developer, just an experimenter!
Main Credits - @MishaalRahman and @phhusson.
For me one of the main selling points of the Mediapad M5 was being Project Treble enabled. Being a big Nexus/Pixel fan I am not particularly fond of EMUI.
So after reading this detailed and clear guide by Mishaal Rahman http://www.xda-developers.com/flash-generic-system-image-project-treble-device/, I was able to successfully install an AOSP Generic System Image by phhusion http://forum.xda-developers.com/project-treble/trebleenabled-device-development/experimental-phh-treble-t3709659
My device - CMR-W09 (10.8" non pro wifi).
I flashed v17 with Gapps and SU and apart from an Android System error upon boot it seems to work ok. I have not had much time to play with it but so far Wifi, Bluetooth, sound, camera, fingerprint sensor, MTP and SD card appear to be working. I had issues with google play not downloading apps but worked after clearing data/cache on google play and google play services. Also have issues with superuser force closing.
For the nervous and unsure, you can easily return to stock Huawei firmware by flashing your devices stock system.img in fastboot.
Obviously bootloader needs to be unlocked see guide - https://forum.xda-developers.com/mediapad-m5/how-to/bootloader-unlock-guide-t3781275 by @Apo11on. You can use Apo11on's root guide to download your firmware to get your stock system.img.
OEM needs to be disabled in developer options.
It is best to factory reset via recovery mode and then boot straight into bootloader to keep FRP unlocked.
Do this at your own risk but please read all the available information and guides on XDA.
pphusion has made other Project Treble roms but I have yet to try them. Hopefully it would be nice if someone could fully develop Lineage for this device.
which rom did you use ? the A/B one or A only ?
It's an A-only device.
I tried AOSP with GAPPS and SU but SuperSU shows the su binary as being occupied through several reboots. Getting the Lineage GSI now and will root with magisk.
Edit:
Blah... Lineage is not an option until we have twrp :/ (at least for me) No way to install GAPPS.
Edit:
SU works with phh's super user available from the play store.
Yes i have the AOSP one now on my AL-09 and it works fine till now. Bugs : home Button not working but fingerprint works, supersu with the phhs one works. Bluetooth sometimes gives an error message. Battery drain is a little bit high. I installed the Huawei camera apk from treble forum and This works also good.
Another Bug is Apps sometimes force closing but Not often.
How is Lineage performing?
A little bit off topic, but how did you unlock the bootloader on the Wifi only version since the website for the code is offline for a few weeks now?
Thanks in advance.
Fantastic to see that Treble works.
On my AL09(ASOP with gapps and su) bluetooth never connects to any of my devices and fc on pairing.
Lineage was a non-starter, since I was unable to get gapps running. I was also getting a vendor mismatch toast. I'm back on the stock .125(C00), no working tether is infinitely more useable than no BT.
It was nice to be able to flash something that didn't brick it and was partially useable.

I think so, if you look at the github comments there is a huawei phone having the same problem, so as long as a phone is having problems it should get fixed
We would like some screenshots to see if this is real @AndDiSa @rcstar6696 @phhusson @MishaalRahman
Just installed it, attached a few screenshots. Haven't tested it a lot, but it boots.
Wie are Not joking, its real ??
Delete, double post
I will be getting my Mediapad M5 8.4 tomorrow and will be flashing the AOSP treble build straight away. Just a heads up a updated build has just been posted with some Huawei related fixes.
i flash it now, and give feedback tomorrow
I flashed the new one with gapps and su, and for the sht-l09 there is no working bluetooth, so that's as far as I go. It will be nice when the BT is fixed for this device.
Works good with dirty flash, Home Button is working now and also Automatic Brightness, but battery draining is really high and it gets hot.

Might be worth experimenting with. Try conservative or ondemand if they are available. You can always change back if it doesn't make any difference.

Originally, this was thread was centered on the LineageOS 17 GSI by AndyYan, however, CodeF86 has so very generously made a working GSI for the Moto G6 which you can try out now!
Unlike AndyYan's generic GSI, for this you do NOT need to flash johnaltg1's LineageOS 16 image (if you do, this GSI will NOT boot). It is recommended you use stock Pie firmware. Oreo firmware has not been tested and may result in bugs.
Download here—Compiled Feb 22nd, w/ working LTE!
See CodyF86's thread post
Some notes:
Unlike the generic GSI, calling works.
Also unlike the GSI, the colors don't invert randomly.
Magisk DOES NOT work at the moment, neither phhuson's nor regular Magisk. Flashing it will cause a bootloop.
Bluetooth audio has been reported to not work
As with many Android 10 GSIs/ROMs, Chrome freezes or crashes because GApps packages currently are missing the new Trichrome WebView implementation which replaces Chrome as the default WebView. This being worked on (see OpenGApps wiki and issue #773 on their GitHub.) For now, use another browser (like LineageOS's default browser) if you install GApps. —As soon as Trichrome is added onto the ARM package just as it has for ARM64, Chrome should be stable.
For now, that's all I can think of. However, if you notice any other bugs or caveats, let me know so I can add it to the list.
This is a GSI based on phhuson's prereleased GSI work and also based on the prereleased LineageOS 17. This is a pre-release so please be careful and don't use this as a daily driver. Things may break randomly, whoops, so please be patient! If you see any bugs, report them here.
Extremely huge shoutout to CodyF86 for this GSI!
The developer of this ROM has moved on to another phone and the community now has a full fledged 64-bit ROM which has much better support for things.
AgentICS said:
The LineageOS 17 GSI works great on the Moto G6. There are some caveats however for anyone willing to try it:
You MUST first flash the LineageOS 16.0 ROM first or else you will bootloop.
Use this Magisk from phhuson's official GitHub
Your screen may change colors and look weird, when this happens, go to Settings > Display > LiveDisplay> Color mode and change it to the value under the value selected on the menu and then back to the original one and that should fix it
If you flash GApps before first boot, follow AndyYan's suggestions as the Setup Wizard is broken for some reason on most GApps packages.
Calling while not on WiFi is broken for now.

Just to reiterate, you are stipulating that this pre-release build doesn't permit me to make an outgoing phone call (nor possibly receive any) unless connected to a WiFi network? Please pardon my not-so-subtle-sarcasm ... but, why would anyone release this with a bug (or limitation) which inhibits the core functionality of the device? I could see a million other issues being permissible but not being able to make normal phone calls (or possibly even receive them) doesn't warrant any kind of release for testing. That being said, I'd be happy to help if possible and eagerly await a usable version of Android 10 to put on my Moto G6 which I only got a month ago (happily unlocked at a great price on Amazon). However, it is (currently) my main phone for making calls.

It is pre-release so not all the bugs are ironed out, I should have added that this should not be used on your daily driver. But yes, it's dumb to use a phone that can't make calls without WiFi. Just as a note, you can make and receive calls however if you're not using WiFi, the caller can't hear you. I have filed a bug upstream with phhusson as this affects every GSI built using his work (Pixel Experience, Lineage and AOSP which I've tested). I hope this gets fixed soon so stay tuned to that GitHub issue

Bluetooth is horribly broken for now, it causes the app playing audio to lag and crash so please stay away from it.

Ok, so I installed and flashed Lineage 16 first. Then I flashed Lineage 17 GSI in system img, but then when I did that I go into twrp and it said an os was not installed and wouldn't boot. But if I just flash Lineage 16 it would boot. Am I doing something wrong?

First off, are you unzipping the file? The standalone uncompressed file is unflashable. It needs to be decompressed from it's .gz (or whatever it was compressed to) form. If you have, have you tried using fastboot flash system <lineage file name> from a PC?

It is pre-release so not all the bugs are ironed out, I should have added that this should not be used on your daily driver. But yes, it's dumb to use a phone that can't make calls without WiFi. Just as a note, you can make and receive calls however if you're not using WiFi, the caller can't hear you. I have filed a bug upstream with phhusson as this affects every GSI built using his work (Pixel Experience, Lineage and AOSP which I've tested). I hope this gets fixed soon so stay tuned to that GitHub issue

Just wanted to jump in here and say I'm seeing same bug on xt1925-6 with callers not able to hear me on any 10 gsi's and speakerphone does not work at all. Phh aosp 10 build 209 with stock pie 55-37-7-2 boot vendor boots fine, other gsi's will only boot using the Ali lineage full ROM boot- vendor but call audio is broken as well. Thanks for submitting the bug report, hopefully it will get fixed in future builds.
Hello friends,
It's been a while since i've posted on XDA. I was the person who originally rooted the g6 play. I managed to build a GSI image of 17.1 with the latest code as of today if anyone is interested I can upload it to gdrive or something, didn't feel like making a new thread.
It boots, mobile calls work, dark mode works (which is amazing), it all seems to work.
Getting it to compile was just short of a miracle...lol.
Only bad thing is I cannot get it to boot with any version of magisk even the version specifically for phh / Android 10, but with just the stock kernel with the ,verify removed it boots fine.

GSI-Lineage-17.1-2-16-2020-system.img
It seems it only connects at 3g although it lists a different apn server on lineage, I may be able to fix that, and I couldnt get the sd card to format as anything but adaptive storage, but everything works more or less. going to recompile in a week its still pretty early in development stage of lineage.

Huge thanks for this GSI!!! I've been using it and it works flawlessly, I have also observed that only 3G works for now but regardless of that, everything works fine.
Again, I can't reiterate enough how thankful I am with you for this GSI!

May have a fix for LTE compiling it now, using the stock apn file with the adjusted mcc mnc numbers.
If I could get root I could get it for sure, but I can't get it to boot with a magisk flashed kernel, even the android 10 special version of magisk.
I got LTE but now mobile network stays disconnected although there is an LTE connection. It's an apn issue will work on it. if I get it working will make a thread...not sure why magisk won't work with my builds / kernel though yet.

I've noticed that restarting always restarts to the bootloader. I don't know if it's just me but that's weird
Could you provide a link to the kernel source used in the rom?

It's on his GitHub
The kernel is actually just the stock kernel from the latest firmware with the ',verity' flag hexedited out to disable encryption. (You also need to change the fstab that is in all the guides ever made including my original one), but I'm working on building the kernel and making it work...but I got LTE to woooooork with some changes to the stock apn file lineage provides ! lol.
Only thing now is that it thinks my external sd card is corrupted and wont format right unless i set it to adaptive storage, so make a backup of your external sd card for now. Going to try using TWRP to format it with a couple different file systems.
Here she is boys.
Lineage-17.1-02.22.20-treble-arm-system
Still working on getting it to boost with magisk not sure why it won't when it was fine in Pie.
Still playing with the apn file the apn its using says sprint ehrpd but not sure what makes it pick which apns to show on the screen, but the apn is set to x.boost.ispsn which makes LTE work. I'll clean it up soon.
(All of this is assuming you're on Boost / Sprint)
Or wait a couple of months for them to tweak it a bit?
I only run Magik and not Xposed, not that it matters!
I'm not rooted, but I've been running R since the first public ßeta.
It's been the smallest update so far in a long time for Android. Very little has changed, compared to previous major version upgrades.
If you can root (and from what I read i think you can with Magisk), make a full backup and try it.

I don't really know what you'd be waiting for. I don't think a non-rooted person would notice much in terms of drawbacks. Magisk modules level, there were some issues... but I think most things are getting worked out. Xposed technically works, but more than half of my modules broke in a way that probably won't be fixed for a while. I still feel like I'm at a net-negative in terms of phone features. A11 brought little and broke a lot of my QoL tweaks that used Xposed.
I make no claims about SafetyNet as I use no apps that even check it.
I think A11 has been released formally by google and most of issues have been fixed or addressed.
I used magisk and edxposed. That's not a problem for me(I used Edxposed for fingerface only). Regarding of safetynet issue, it also has solution to make it pass by magisk modules and kernel side.
Until now, I'm happy with A11.
I ended up doing a full wipe and upgrade to Android 11 Oct 2020.
I have Magisk running with the SQL Lite mods for Google Pay and obviously I have root so I'm basically back where I was on Android 10.
I hadn't use Xposed yet and I don't know if I will yet. I was using Viper Audio mod but I don't know if I noticed a major difference, mostly I just stream bluetooth in my SUV.
So far, so good.
I tried it and reverted back to 10 - as mentioned didn't gain much but broke a lot. Even in stock form I can't get videos to load a subtitle file because of storage permissions and what not. A tweaked out install of 10 is faaaar nicer imo so that's what I'm running, probably until a new phone comes out sadly.

can i ask how you upgraded to A11? Im on 10 rooted with magisk and keep hearing mixed messages on upgrading. And is it necessary to wipe? I really don't want to.
A11 is not too bad, but as others have said little things here and there that break. Like for me I listen to SiriusXM app on mobile and for some odd reason it will stop playing all of a sudden and close. It's like the aggressive memory management kills the app for no reason. I even have battery optimization turned off and still does it.
Thinking about moving back to A10 from August, not really much I have to have to stick with latest A11 updates.

Flash the factory image, but remove the -w in the flash-all file. Then in Magisk Manager switch tot he beta channel and patch the boot image with that. Flash it and you're done.

You do know the latest version of magisk has a11 support?

Ok so I shouldn't install it via the ota? I keep getting the pop up to update every day.
Does using Magisk to dl / install the OTA, then patch the non-live and newly flashed partition, then finally rebooting not work?
When I was rooted that was always the easiest way.
And based upon the post 2 above this one, Magisk now supports A11 without ẞeta, right?

How is 11 for you going so far, I am thinking in reverting back to 10, battery is awful on 11
Hi,
kinda new to custom ROMs and running into my first real problems.
I installed TWRP, LineageOS 20.0, BitGApps Basic and Magisk 26.1 on my Samsung Galaxy S10e Exynos.
After setup everything works extremely well and fast. I installed Universal SafetyNet Fix, Viper4Android (programminghoch10/ViPER4AndroidRepackaged: A refined ViPER4Android installer. (github.com)) and Universal GMS Doze (gloeyisk/universal-gms-doze: Patches Google Play services app and its background processes to be able using battery optimization (github.com)). The phone still works fine and Viper4Android works too. SafetyNet also passes.
Now the problems arise. A few hours later and some reboots later, the phone won't boot anymore (maybe 20 reboots). I didn't even change any settings before the reboots. The boot animation plays and the phone is getting reset by a watchdog maybe. Also cannot use ADB during boot and the safe mode button combination doesn't work. I'm not experienced enough to understand the log files correctly. I already flashed the phone twice and the same problem occurred.
I attached some logs I could get from TWRP, but the main data partition is encrypted.
Full log files are here: logs.zip
Otherwise I'm extremely impressed with Lineage and would love to use it as my daily.
Thanks a lot for helping.

If it is an issue with the ROM itself, you will need to post your issue in the ROM thread where you got your ROM and see if there is something in the ROM that the developer of the ROM needs to fix in the ROM itself.
Hi, kinda new to custom ROMs and tried out Lineage and later Crdroid on my Galaxy S10e Exynos.
The OS works fine but after a few restarts the phone randomly bootloops and I can't find any way to fix it.
Currently installed is Crdroid recovery, Crdroid latest (the same problem happens with Lineage) with Android 13, MindTheGapps, Magisk 25.2
Magisk modules are Zygisk, Viper4Android and Universal SafetyNet Fix.
I attached some logs but I'm too inexperienced too read them correctly. It looks like the file
Code:
/data/misc_de/0/apexdata/com.android.permission/runtime-permissions.xml
is corrupted after a few restarts?? The bootlogo just repeats and nothing is happening. The logs say that the zygote process has crashed.
Does anyone know what to do? Thanks a lot!
Logs: log.txt
This used to happen on my Galaxy A50 on another ROM too, and since it's not an S10e problem it's probably a Magisk module
