[announcement] SailfishOS for the m7 (GSM variant) - One (M7) General

\o/ yey thanks to the moderator for letting me post links!
[update 25th February: modem now semi-working! Here's a pic ]
Hi all,
I'm excited to announce the availability of the inaugural release of SailfishOS for the M7 (GSM variant).
Instructions, information and download links are available here.
The adaptation is very much a work in progress: modem and camera not yet functional being the largest of the issues but we're actively working on them and hope to have functionality in place in the coming weeks. Regarding the US variants, the Sprint version has been successfully tested but public images for this adaptation are not yet available. There is an outside chance the 'vanilla' M7 SailfishOS image will function when paired with the appropriate Cyanogenmod 11.0 release but I wouldn't necessarily recommend it and don't have a device/am in the wrong continent to test.
So if you have an M7 kicking around that you don't use as your daily or are keen to see what is going on beyond the world of Android please take this for a spin. Who knows, you might even like it.
We chat about all* of our hardware adaptations on FreeNode in the #sailfishos-porters channel if you want to drop by.
Cheers,
Steph ([email protected], @chucisteph)
* if you're interested in other devices we're currently working on over 35 hardware adaptations and are actively engaging communities for more.

I wanna try sailfish OS

Could a mod *pretty please* let me post links? (or post them for me, or another user post them, don't mind, I just want to share the info)

Never mind. Found it myself: https://wiki.merproject.org/wiki/Adaptations/libhybris/Install_SailfishOS_for_m7
Could you say how long it will be till we can expect a ROM with gsm working or are there problems you can't say how long it will take to solve them?

Days hopefully but probably weeks. The modem is there and detected but I'm having difficulty turning it on. Once that's solved it should (hopefully!) Just Work(tm).

I am installing this rom on my HTC m7. Thank you so much. Will love to assist you people in any way possible.
Update:
Everything works perfectly except, GSM, camera and store. Have played with it for around half an hour. There is another bug with power off menu. It got stucked when i tried to do so forcing me to soft reset my mobile. And i tried adding my sim card and after the reboot it get stucked in boot loop.
Hoping to see fully working SFOS in nearest future.

Touch screen not work my device :crying:

Hi all!
Happy to say that I have managed to get some modem support working this afternoon. I'll do my best to bake an image tonight. Where we're at at the moment:
* Modem functional but currently not showing SIM status correctly in UI
* SMS sending and receiving works
* Mobile data works (and shows correctly in the UI
* Call functionality works: can make and receive calls, however call audio not currently working
These are all problems that other devices have had in the past, and they all have solutions so I am going to work as quickly as I can to get them resolved and make an image in with fixes.

Sorry to hear. Your device is definitely a GSM m7? could you try re-flashing and see if it persists? if it does, are you happy using linux tools? we can debug it together.

That's great to hear. Once I have the modem properly working I will need help both for testing but also to enable store support (I need to send two IMEIs to Jolla so they can verify that the port works properly. Regarding your boot loop, the SIM should make no difference but I have noticed that the boot can sometimes be upset if the phone is started whilst plugged into a computer:- the GUI sometimes never comes up. I'm working on that but it only happens to me maybe 1 in 10 times so it's low down my list of priorities.

ok so sailfish is a fully blown linux distribution, means that once it's booted, even if the gui is messed up you can still SSH into it and ask it what it's doing (similar to adb shell). I just need to go RTFM how to make Windows recognise the USB network that your phone is presenting when you plug it in.

I tried 3 times,
I'm doing the setup with the following steps
1- Full wipe
2- İnstal "cm-11-20141112-SNAPSHOT-M12-m7"
3- Shutdown and Powered up again by launching android
4- Reboot Recovery and instal "sailfishos-m7-release-2.0.0.10-sg-rel-201602180750.zip", and reboot again
5-Normaly boot but touch does not work in the language of choice
Sorry for my bad english

Your English is fine!
ok so your steps 1) and 2) only need to be done once:- Sailfish relies on the CM version for hardware support but once CM has been installed, when you install the SFOS zip it goes next to the CM /system and /data.
4) You're using an older SFOS image: does this one work: http://images.devaamo.fi/sfe/m7/sfe...s-m7-release-2.0.0.10-sg-rel-201602191147.zip
Out of interest, in step 3, does touch work?

No am sorry
Perhaps in a different firmware version required, because the power button works. Maybe that's enough for tonight I'll try again tomorrow. Thank you, good night

[ROM] Unofficial CyanogenMod 9 [BLECM9 0.02]

Current status: CM10.1 in the works and this version will not be updated.
Got started with the project in January, I'm now ready to present you my first custom ROM (and kernel) - BLECM9!
First of all - BACKUP! This is not stable for everyday use just yet.
It also includes my own kernel, based on the latest CAF source code (ics_chocolate). The kernel gets frequent updates from CAF and me. Kernel version is 3.0.8. It's not as stable in the beginning but a better choice in the long term.
It won't include Google Apps, you need to manually install gapps package, as any other CM rom is by default.
Prequisites
U8800 upgraded to 2.3
ClockworkMod Recovery v5.5.0.4, not tested in v5.0.2.7
Instructions for Installing
Download the latest version of BLECM9 (Downloads below).
Copy the package to your internal/external SD card.
Reboot to recovery.
Flash the update package.
Optional: Install Gapps package (Downloads below).
Reboot and wait. The first boot takes around 2 minutes.
Downloads
My Google Code Page
Google Apps @ goo.im
Additional Notes
Report issues.
Changelog.
No, this won't work on U8800-51 or U8800Pro.
Atmel TS users, 0.02 will not work for you. I am establishing a new driver, to make the driver standard. Please standby as this is my top priority.
Everybody, send me logs if something does not work. This kernel is under heavy development. On computer with ADB set up: "adb shell dmesg > dmesg.log" and send the dmesg.log
Major Bugs
No Atmel TS support.
RIL issues (does not detect all SIMs)
NT35510 seems to have issues when turning on the screen (confirm?)
Unstable backlight on low values.
Wifi MAC address is 00:11:22:33:44:55
No Camera.
No Bluetooth.
No FM radio.
No audio (except ringtone/alarm)
Sometimes glitchy hardware acceleration.
No sensors.
More...
Credits: Huge thanks to dzo - without the proprietary blobs from him, this would've not been possible.

awesome. lets try
edit: when i try to write wifi password... see attachement. i can still write password, but i can't see what i am writing. everything works good in messeges
2nd edit: common cm problem... error while searching for network
Thanks for sharing.Looks good.
Been waiting for this. I will try it asap. I'm sure it will be get better day by day. Many thanks.
First of all Thank you!
First Impressions:
Touchscreen feels really responsive.
Rom feels very fast too.
Wifi is working good.
Bugs that I've found:
Screen flickering (unstable backlight)
Can't mount SDCard.
RIL isn't working on my u8800.
Overall it looks very promising!
Logs attached.

Yes, It's related to HW acceleration, causing some UI glitches.
Have been waiting for this for a long time, even if can't even use it because of Amtel TS.
Keep up with this awesome work
Thanks for this!

Great! Been waiting for CM9 a long time ago too... Blefish, you should post some rules as to what we should and how to post in this thread, maybe instructions on how to post specific logs and what kind of info you need. The rest of the discussion should be posted in the general section. I would really hate for this thread to become a mess like Aurora's...

Unofficial announcement of CM10.1/10.2

UNOFFICIAL FAQ FOR CM10.1/10.2
DOWNLOAD AND INSTALLATION
Q: Where’s the download?A: The initial FXP release had an incorrect kernel – you can download a working version of ROM from here. http://d-h.st/TPT
This ROM has since been updated a download can be located here. http://d-h.st/i3V
If you wish to try a CM10.2 (that’s Jelly Bean 4.3 – have Sony actually released a 4.3 ROM yet?) one can be downloaded from the link above.You can also download the correct version of GAPPS for Jelly Bean 4.3 here. http://brintaylor.info/Android/CM/gapps/
For the CM10.2 build you should use this link to report bugs. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/185s...9UINQ/viewform
Uberlaggydarwin plans to take a 'light touch' approach to support via XDA, so don't necessarily expect an answer to a query if you post in this thread
It seems like FXP have delayed releasing for our device for now, but information about CM builds that are being actively supported and developed can be found in this thread for now.
Q: How do I install?
A: You need an unlocked bootloader and an installed recovery. BACK UP your current ROM to your external SD card. Put the ROM and GAPPS on your external SD card. Boot into your recovery, do the necessary wipes, flash the ROM, flash GAPPS, reboot, victory. Disclaimer: if it breaks your phone, it’s your fault.
Q: Do I need to install the supplied kernel before installing the ROM?
A: No, unlike older xperia models CWM is able to flash both the kernel and the ROM at the same time. There is no need to use fastboot or flashtools to flash the kernel first, just a working recovery and an unlocked bootloader on your phone.
Q: Can I use another kernel instead?
A: No, for now only the supplied kernel will work.
Q: I’ve installed the ROM but can’t find the play store?
A: Immediately after installing the ROM you should install the 4.2.2 version of GAPPS (Google Apps) – this installs the play store and several other applications that Google regard as essential to the Android experience. This can be found here – http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20130812-signed.zip
Q: How do I update to the latest version of the ROM?
A: Once you’ve downloaded the latest version to your SD card, boot into recovery. No need to wipe your data, though you probably should wipe cache and dalvik cache (I don’t know whether this is done automatically as part of the installation but it can’t do any harm). You don’t need to install GAPPS again as this is a firmware update, not a new installation.
However if you’re moving between versions i.e. 10.1 to 10.2 you should definitely do a factory reset – the ROM may well work fine without a data wipe, but it may not and any problems might not be immediately noticeable (making bug tracking difficult). I would advise you NOT to report bugs if you’ve moved between android versions without a factory reset.
Q: When will they release a version that works on a locked bootloader?
A: Never. Some the features of the ROM simply won’t work very well/at all on a stock kernel. If you are rooted you can simulate some of the features with apps and mods though.
POST-INSTALLATION QUESTIONS
Q: I’ve installed the ROM – I can use Titanium Backup to reinstall all my apps right?
A: Yes and no. They may work fine, they might not – you are better off letting Google’s back up service restore all your apps. If you restore an app using Titanium or similar software and it’s buggy, there’s no point reporting it – re-install the app instead, perhaps even the ROM.
Q: 4G isn’t working – what do I do?
A: It’s not enabled by default on CM10.1 so you must do the following.
Go to the dialpad/phone.
Dial in the this number: *#*#4636#*#* (This will bring up "Phone info").
Tap WCDMA from under "Set preferred network type".
Select "LTE/GSM/CDMA auto (PRL)".
The 4G LTE network should now be activated.
Q:Where’s USB mass storage?
A: After ICS Google stopped including it in their Android builds, as such mass storage mode is not a feature that was kept by CM for Jelly Bean. Individual manufacturers do what they want though, which is why Sony, Samsung and others still have it. Skilled modders may be able to add to ROMS based on this development, I reckon they might be able to patch this one to include it too
Q: This ROM is buggy as hell and drains my battery – how do I let the developers know?
A: Logcat and/or a kernel log - or it didn’t happen for bugs.
Better battery stats for battery drain.
There are lots of guides out there showing you how to take logs and how to record battery stats.
Anecdote – I activated Google+ yesterday as I like the auto-photo upload feature but wakelock detector revealed it was killing my battery (I think it’s dodgy on stock too). The choice was the app or the ROM, I chose the ROM.
Q: After installation something random doesn’t work – what do I do?
A: Check the thread to see if other users have mentioned the issue and to see if the developer has posted a solution. Also, you’re on XDA, you’re an advanced user, you have unlocked your bootloader, thrown out your warranty and accepted the consequences. So please try to resolve the issue yourself. In general if you are having a problem and no one else is, it will be a problem with your phone/download/installation.
Phone - obviously a hardware fault can't be foreseen by the developer and have you unlocked your bootloader!
Download - Most downloads are fine. But I've flashed enough ROMS to know that sometimes a file gets corrupted and sometimes they say they are complete when they are not. Sometimes I've been careless and clicked on the wrong download, sometimes the website hosting the site is haveing a a bad day, sometimes the developer puts the download in the wrong place too The first things to check are the name and size of the file - if these tally you're probably fine to install. If you want to be extra cautious you can check the MD5 hash to see if your download matches. Sometimes the file gets corrupted on upload - nothing anyone can do about that...
Installation - (Please back up your orignal ROM). Typically you'll be installing this ROM using a recovery from another ROM/kernel/MOD - so if you have problems installing , it might be that you have a bad recovery.
The wipes really need to be done to ensure the smooth running of your phone, but as you've backed up, the 15 seconds you spend properly wiping should not be much of a chore.
If you're one of the first downloaders, I guess there is some merit in saying you couldn't install, but if it's been out for a while and there are loads of posts saying 'what a great ROM' there's little point posting 'won't install'. Describe exactly what you've done and someone might help.
Bear in mind there are apps/hardware that the developers of this ROM won’t have heard of/care about - so if something doesn’t work properly on your phone it could be for numerous reasons. Either way, this may be something you have to live with. Alternatively, if the app is essential to you, you’ll have to return to a backup.
Remember this ROM is in development, there are no promises of perfection and no one is forcing you to use it. However, the right kind of feedback is always welcomed by the developers and may be acted on – the wrong kind will often be ignored.
Q: What does a perfect bug report look like?
A: Go here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=46935640&postcount=313
Q: What are the known bugs?
A: FM radio doesn’t work.
A: Attempts to offline charge cause the phone to boot.
A: 4G activation is not remembered between boots for CM10.1.
A: For 10.2 there is a known battery drain issue related to WiFi. See the solution here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=46923723&postcount=301
The following issues have been reported by some users, but others say it doesn’t affect them. They are regarded as hardware issues – anecdotal ‘me too’ posts will be ignored. However, supply a log and your phone’s date of manufacture and the developer may look into it (this might help you prove that your phone is faulty, so it’s a worthwhile exercise).
Erratic touch screen response.
Reading external SD Card in recovery and in use.
As others have said this is possibly the most stable first CM build they’ve encountered and I agree – it’s definitely suitable for daily use. I've been using it from release and haven't had a single reboot/app crash or freeze.

Screen Flicker
Hi @Rajeev
I didn't experience screen flickering at ALL in ANY test builds so I find this really difficult to believe but I'm happy to take a detailed look at it ..
Log's plus video(so I can see what you mean) would be useful so I can get this possible ?issue? and if it is an issue then I'll get it resolved.
None whatsoever for me so this is a really weird issue....
Thanks
I have the flickering too ! And the phone often soft freezes. Seems like the app isnt updated anymore on screen. It can also be just the keyboard for example. Hiting recent tasks unfreezes it but systemui sometimes freezes until reboot.

Hi Bro @uberlaggydarwin
Yes i am saying truth only.
1) While Scrolling in settings Its flickering like waves. But its not coming after Click the " Disable Hardware Overlay" Function.

Bootloader
Just wondering if you are guys are using locked or unlocked bootloader? I'm locked with CWM and I'm wondering what the process would be of installing... (e.g. wiping /data...)

Hey, Make a backup, you need an unlocked bootloader for this. Then wipe all cache and data etc. then flash the rom on your phone

LOG"S OR IT DIDN"T HAPPEN . I'm serious.
I'm downloading this release to test but I can't help much if you don't provide logs.
Are you sure its not auto-brightness being turned on as auto-brightness doesn't work very well in stock so the changes are probably more noticeable.
Reboots work perfectly fine for me..
On the recent test builds I haven't had a reboot issue but as you know the kernel is temporary so I'll redo it when 4.3 comes out....
WE NEED LOGS.

RIL is not working

I know you just sharing for the hype, but, at least on XT1078 (dual sim) RIL is not working, the system did not recognize a SIM card in any slot, don't know if it's because the dual sim stuff... The rest seems to behave just like you mentioned, so thanks for sharing anyway!!
Edit: By the way, I managed to install without Titan's Recovery... To be honest, when I tried to boot in titan's recovery my phone kind of bootlooped... So I decided to modify updater-script and change the match names to thea (XT1078), it installed flawless and booted just fine.
Okay that's sad to hear but I can't do much at the moment. But thank you for trying.
EDIT: Multi sim fixed in 07.11 build.
Where is the original thread ? I can't find it. You should give a link in the first post as it is not your ROM but thanks for sharing !

I saw cyanogenmod so my post does relate to this thread...
so basically i unlocked my bootloader on my Moto G 2014 LTE, I rooted my phone and then installed and flashed using TWRP:
tk_gapps-stock-5.1.1-20151004-signed.zip
Full-CM-12-21-03-15-Bacon-modem-flashable.zip
Both successfully installed and flashed and then I rebooted the system as per the instructions and then my phone screen, instead of rebooting with cyanogen, it went black and wont turn on.
Please could someone tell me what I need to do to get it up an running, I have tried the following:
- holding down power and volume down button for two minutes whilst on charge
- leaving it on charge for 15 minutes and then repeating the above step
- I have plugged it into my computer and it has picked up that there is something plugged in, but my phone drive never shows up.
Thank you

For titan it would be this file : https://s.basketbuild.com/filedl/de...M13/titan/cm-13-20151021-UNOFFICIAL-titan.zip
But because XT1069 is a dual sim phone RIL (Calls, SMS, Data) will not work. So I wouldn't recommend you to install it. I'm sure it will be fixed soon.

Everything works except the things in What's not working in Post 1. The biggest bugs at the moment are that you can't select an other language than english and that Screenrotation is sometimes buggy and you have to restart the phone to get it working again.
I only use English so that's not an issue. I had the screen rotate bug in "stable" roms on two phones. Does it affect games and movies (auto rotated apps) or only switching rotation on and off?

No it doesn't affect games and apps with only one orientation available. But I had to download an app called "rotation control" to rotate my screen when I'm in apps for example browser or apps.
How is this CyanogenMod? This is AOSP with the CM launcher and wallpaper, that's it. And what are these weird search and browser apps?
This isn't CyanogenMod. There is not even advanced reboot menu. This is 100% stock. And no xposed of course. I'm going back to RR.

This is only for testing and development purposes my friend, it is not even a nightly!
It is just an early build and a really good one!
My bad. It is a great build. The only issue is gapps. All the ones I found for 6.0 keep FCing randomly and having permissions issues, even when all permissions are allowed
I had the same problem Ace2213, so I've reverted back to 12.1 for now and wait for a proper Nightly of 13.

Ubuntu Touch for OPO

https://devices.ubports.com/#/bacon
Apparently stable has been released, unfortunately i don't have the means to test it yet.
Anyone tried out the release? Cannot find proper material on the functionality and or features.
Site claims it's good for daily use, therefore if anyone can test it and report, would be awesome.
Edit. Build does not work daily
How is this a daily driver when the release clearly states GPS & Camera still doesnt work? ?
https://devices.ubports.com/#/
Here says :
Active devices are devices that are fully working as daily drivers, it requires to have wifi, call, sms, data, OTA, apparmor and sound to be working to be an "Active device".
Only bluetooth is not working according to the list on that website.
Camera and GPS "work" but still have major issues.
Extremely buggy. Not stable.

Notice you didn't list camera or GPS on that list. 2 things still not completely working. If you click on the device it has a list of features in red and green on the next page.
Camera & GPS are in red but listed, meaning they work, but are very buggy. I've used these builds before man...you clearly haven't as you are asking someone to test it for you.
If you're idea of a "daily driver" is no Bluetooth & barely working camera/GPS you don't understand the meaning of "daily driver." From a technical standpoint all that is required for the Ubuntu dev page to be a daily driver is if everything works, not if everything works flawlessly...
I'm all for people testing this but its not good to convince people to install this on their phones with false pretenses.
*TO ALL AVERAGE USERS. FEEL FREE TO TRY, BUT THIS IS NOT A DAILY DRIVER. DO NOT LISTEN TO THIS GUY EXPECTING THIS TO FUNCTION LIKE A PERFECT ROM BUILD.
I've been using Ubuntu on my PC for years and I really want Ubuntu phone to carve up its share in the market. I installed Ubuntu Touch via multirom and it is barely an OS especially if you are coming from XDA and its riches. It was buggy, the camera didn't work and even if everything were to work flawless, you'll be still lacking the apps to make phone a bit smarter.

You have to install the Multirom-recovery from February manually, the lastest one doesn't work with Ubuntu Touch on the OPO. Also make sure to have everything ext4 formatted, had problems with f2fs and Multirom.
Once Ubuntu Touch is installed it's pretty stable and somewhat fast (not as fast as Android MM tho). But the lack (and quality) of apps really is a problem

[WIP][DOWNLOADS] A new take on a graphical installer for LineageOS

Hello!
Usually I mainly consult this forum to get unofficial builds of LineageOS or look for support when occasionly something goes wrong. Some time ago I wondered, why it has to be so annoying to install LineageOS (or most of the other custom ROMs). There have been several attempts to create a graphical installer for LineageOS (most famously this one) and some installers for specific ROMs like calyxos. But support for devices is rather limited and hard to extend.
So I decided to give it a try myself and create a new attempt to build a graphical installer for alternative Android ROMs.
Repository: https://github.com/openandroidinstaller-dev/openandroidinstaller
Features:​- Graphical installer with instructions.
- onefile executable.
- adb, fastboot, heimdall and some drivers included.
- Works on Linux (mainly tested on Ubuntu 20.04), MacOS (not on ARM, M1, M2) and windows (you might need to install some drivers manually).
- some checks if the selected LineageOS image and recovery works for your device.
- Installation steps are based on config files to add support for new devices.
- written in python
Supported devices:​- Currently, the alpha version mainly supports Google, Samsung, Fairphone and Sony devices, but should be fairly easy to extend to other devices.
Alpha version release download:​https://github.com/openandroidinstaller-dev/openandroidinstaller/releases
How can you help?​All kinds of feedback are useful! Let me know what you think in this thread.
If you have a unused device that supports LineageOS, perhaps you could try out this tool and report your results in this thread! I bought a bunch of different android devices, but more testing on all kinds of devices is needed and very welcome! Also testing the tool on different platforms (windows, macos, etc.) would be super helpful.
Note that:
- It may screw up your device. No automatic restore process is implemented yet, so make sure to have some sort of recovery tool handy.
- When you report back, please include the version of the program you used (as identified in the Downloads section), along with your device.
- Read the repository's README for further details!
- This installer is not associated with official LineageOS.

Thanks a lot! I'm looking forward to your feedback!
What phone are you getting? I might be able to help you with support
FP3. Was hoping it'll arrive today... alas, didn't come, so probably I can check not before the weekend.
Great! I'll make sure, that there is support for the FairPhone 3 on the weekend, but note, that it hasn't been tested yet, since I don't have a FairPhone 3. So I'm super happy about any feedback I can get
If you have questions, let me know!

OK, it works with FP3! Awesome! Actually, that might become a nice little helper for flashing LOS!
Ran into some problems:
Had to OEM-unlock first. Could be little bit more elaborate (I usually forget to reboot the phone after that and authorize my PC, lol)
First 2 times it hang, only the console told me it looks for https://lineageosroms.com/fp3/ (not official, is it?)
Had to unlock with fastboot flashing unlock
That can be a big problem for beginners if you face it the first time
A little bit more feedback during flashing would be nice, console (and phone) showed more than the installer
Overall very good approach! Well, except for the lack of feedback (errors/progress from console). Is there any logging?
PS: Used it on Debian Bullseye with KDE.
PSPS: Perhaps an overview of the steps would fit in there as well (so one can see past, current and future steps)?
Awesome! Thanks for giving it a try!

In the next release it will point to the official page. I wasn't aware that this page is not at all related to LOS and not so well perceived in the community as some of the devs pointed out to me. The check is done, to find out if there is an official release of LOS and then recommend the download. There might be a better way to guide users to find an appropriate image for their device, but that was simple.

That was my bad... I didn't read the "unlock bootloader" instructions of the FP-support page carefully enough and stopped after part 1. This should be easy to address by updating the config. It will be fixed in the next release.

That's very true! I'm trying to figure out, what kind of feedback is appropriate to keep people informed, but not scare them. A progress bar for flashing is in the making. Optimally, the installer can also show images of what should be going on on the phone. But that will mostly rely on community contributions for phones I don't own.
Thanks a lot for the detailed feedback! I will try to address most of them in the next release, especially more information and feedback for the user.
PS: Are you using the FP3 as your daily driver now, or would you be open to test the installer again in a few weeks or so?
PPS: I'm thinking about moving away from LOS recovery all together and only support TWRP since it allows for much more automation. What are your thought on that?

Hmm, I would certainly appreciate the "real" output as provided in console. Without it I wouldn't have really known what your installer is trying to do.
Putting some pictures wouldn't hurt but I really think that a "map" of steps is useful, too. Besides, one can see the whole progress at once (so far it's a somewhat nebulous process in my mind... and I always! tend to forget something).

Awesome! A recovery without backup (like LOS) seems moot anyway (seems like a must have to me). Was thinking to switch already but wasn't sure about any implications (A/B vs TWRP, didn't fully grasped the A/B stuff yet)...

No, other phones also require this step. Since the fairphone 2 doesn't require it (as far as I know the bootloader is already unlocked), I assumed that could be similar for the Fairphone 3.

So far, it works kind of okay with TWRP I would say, but I'm having weird issues on the Google Pixel with it and wasn't able to find anyone who might know anything about it. Using twrp commands in the adb shell seems to be not so common...
Either way, I would try to get away with just booting into TWRP, wiping and flashing from there. This is an approach that seems to work fine with A/B-partitioned phones as far as I can tell.

It's not on the short-term agenda. But definitely something I'm thinking about. I should probably put a proper roadmap on github
Soooo, now there is a new alpha Release
Release Alpha release v.0.2.1 · openandroidinstaller-dev/openandroidinstaller
This is an alpha release of the OpenAndroidInstaller. Linux, MacOS and Windows are supported, but the testing is mainly done on under Ubuntu 20.04. Note, that currently there is no support for ARM-...
github.com
This time mainly visual improvements and more automation. This is mainly achieved by switching recovery support completely to TWRP (currently only booted, only flashed on samsung devices).
There is now an option to get advanced output, printing commands run and terminal output in the tool. This is still early stage and needs a fair amount of improvements, but gives some more hints about whats going on.
Logs are written in the same directory you run the tool in.
...and support for quite some new devices!
@SigmundDroid : Now the support for the Fairphoen 3 should be fixed and TWRP should work A/B devices (tested with google pixel 3a). Give it a try, if you want!
I would be grateful about any feedback! Let me know how it works for you!
Just tried the 2nd version:
+ Nice, comes with log now, good!
- failed at fastboot_oem_unlock twice... but actually it was the "fastboot flashing unlock" (not the oem). Not sure about the proper names for these two unlock (one in dev settings and the other one per fastboot). So, I set both correctly and restarted but it kept hanging here (and no way to skip your test).
The TWRP install worked well... just, how do I start it later? It was installed on A and on B is the LOS recovery - is there some easy way to use TWRP? (really don't have a clue as A/B is fairly new to me)
PS: Shall I drop you the log somewhere?

That's a very good catch, I noticed an issue there. I followed this official tutorial from Fairphone: https://support.fairphone.com/hc/en-us/articles/360048646311-Manage-the-bootloader-of-your-FP3-FP3-
And they used `fastboot oem unlock`, which I noticed now doesn't even exist. I fixed it now.

Ah, right now, I just boot to TWRP recovery, not flash it for A/B devices, since I was not sure how to best do it for now (without potentially destroying stuff). For Samsung devices it will be flashed.
Do you think this is an issue in general? I might try to add it as a feature for power users, that can also handle the risk a bit better. What do you think?

Clean shot, eh!
No, really, worked like a charm! No hickups, nothing, just awesome! Thanks!
PS: Fun fact... Yes, one hickup: Was trying to use LOS recovery three times in a row until I realized it should be TWRP

Great! Thanks a lot for testing again!
Looks like the thing is slowly moving to a more stable state. Maybe moving to beta next year
PS: Good point! In the next release I will try to make it clearer. At least you could not use the LOS recovery

In any case, thanks so far and Merry XMAS

Hey everyone!
I did some work in the last weeks and now the OpenAndroidInstaller is available in alpha version 0.3.1, with improved user experience and newly supported devices.
New features:
new images to guide in the process
steps indicator header
remove step-progressbar and move the header to different column container to keep it attached to the top
pop-up box to explain custom recovery and OS images.
dialog to help finding the android or firmware version
5 New devices (now 32 officially supported devices):
Sony Xperia 10 (kirin)
Sony Xperia 10 Plus (mermaid)
Sony Xperia XA2 (pioneer)
Sony Xperia XZ3 (akatsuki)
Sony Xperia XZ2 (akari)
If you're interested in trying out alternative ROMs on your device, now is the perfect time to give OpenAndroidInstaller a try. Over the holiday season, you might to play with OpenAndroidInstaller on your old or new devices and see what it can do.
Thank you for supporting open source software and giving OpenAndroidInstaller a chance. Happy holidays and happy installing!
PS: There is a brand new, shareable website now! https://openandroidinstaller.org/
Hey you all! I have been quiet for while here, but the work continued!
Now I'm happy to release the first beta release of the OpenAndroidInstaller.
The major new feature is the option to install addons like GApps, MicroG or F-droid with the Installer. Also there are now 52 officially supported devices and more to come!
If you want to try it, I'm happy about all kind of feedback (positive and negative). Have a great day and happy flashing!
