Widgets in custom launchers (experience/nova) broken due to Fire OS? - Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey there
So I've managed to do everything on the checklist to my hd8 rooted and running a custom launcher. I did read somewhere about putting the launcher in a certain system folder which I haven't done, but it seemed to work just fine have a few installed and disabling the fire launcher and then setting another as a default.
Unfortunately Widgets don't seem to be working on any of them. Am I correct in thinking this is because FireOS fundamentally doesn't have the right frameworks to support this, so there's nothing we can do about this?
cheers

Custom ROMs for Yoga Tablet 2?

I'll be looking to root my tablet soon, but are there any custom ROMs for the Yoga tablet 2?
Hi,
I'm searching also for custom ROMs for my Lenovo Yoga 2 (1050F), because it would be a good start to build a custom ROM for Marshmallow (6.0). I would like to get the new "Doze" standby feature, because it's perfect to save battery for tablets.
There are some instructions to root the tablet, but I haven't luck to find a custom ROM. Has somebody found a custom ROM?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Nova

Add me to the list. I'd love a custom ROM for the Yoga 2 Tablet pro. Get rid of the bloat and speed it up.

it always wonders me... why a custom rom? or more exactly what is a custom rom?
if only the bloat is the problem (and i guess you cannot uninstall on normal interface) then open a shell (as root) and try playing with the package manager tool pm
on my 1380f i have disabled these packages:
com.lenovo.weather.theme.dreamlandPad
com.lenovo.deskclock
com.lenovo.lenovodaydream
com.lenovo.paperdisplay
com.google.android.play.games
com.google.android.apps.messaging
com.lenovo.fingerpaint
com.lenovo.videoplayer
com.lenovo.anyshare.gps
com.google.android.youtube
com.lenovo.lps.cloud.sync.row
com.google.android.music
com.google.android.talk
com.google.android.apps.magazines
com.google.android.apps.genie.geniewidget
com.lenovo.email
com.google.android.apps.docs
com.google.android.apps.books
sure thing you can disable more or not so many as i did
to view a list of all your packages:
pm list packages
the command to disable is
pm disable package_name
if you want them back enable
pm enable package_name
to completely uninstall
pm uninstall package_name
but you should play with enable and disable only imo, and after i disable a package i leave it there (i don;t unintall, it's only a dead apk file now, and not that much space)
take care the command can and will break your tab if improperly used (it basically doen;t limit you at anything)
you can play with these two to see what your tablet will behave, also watch the logcat *:E for errors, you get the ideea, don't just disable and expect good things to happen (with what i have disabled my tab is basically "lenovo free")

Thanks for the tip, man! I just found out they'd updated the UI and the new one is sooo much more pleasing. What I didn't like before was how uncustomizable the standard interface was. Also, I could not play Hearthstone on it. But now it's so much cleaner and I've disabled all the unnecessary bloat as per your recommendation. :highfive:
i have a LENOVO YOGA Tablet 2 Pro 1380F.
So there will never be a Release from CyanogenMod for the device?
and add me to the list
All,
I've posted about my forthcoming Yoga Tab 2 830F ROM. Called SleepyBear. Please check in Thinkpad General and come show your support.
I'll have a test ROM on deck this weekend. I need some testers.
The challenge is that we don't have native recovery. I've been using tethered CWM which works fine on identical models.
More to come. If you can test, PLEASE let me know

You can also enable/disable system apps via Titanium Backup. This would be a much safer means of trial and error. Uninstalled apps that cause instability can be restored tout suite

@ionioni - In my experience, most custom ROMs are usually built to create a faster, more power efficient and lean system. In the case of my ROM (SleepyBear), it contains a modified init.d with a host of performance enhancements: fstrim (recover space and increase file access), sqlite (group file history and tasks in a faster queue), cache reclaim (often frees up 400-600MB of RAM without disturbing the active system) and weekly cleanup tasks (e.g. Dalvik cache).

or is some special message hidden in the way your words are ordered ? if so please guide me more because i dare to think i know what a rom(even a custom one) is.

Oneplus launcher on Nexus 6p

Oneplus's​ most recent beta update introduced an update to oxygenos's launcher which made it look and feel almost exactly the same as the pixel launcher. Which got me wondering for us 6p users with the death of Google now launcher could we get this running? Many may be asking why not just use the pixel launcher well one massive reason native icon pack support. (Not the biggest fan of nova) so this seems the best option for me personally any help would be appreciated

How to remove gapps from stock ROM? (Qualcomm)

Hi, I'm curious if I could get the following: the stock ROM on the xt1768 US unlocked version of the phone, but I only want basically the Google stuff that's included in the Pico or Nano opengapps packages. This would entail removing all the included Google stuff from the stock ROM, installing compatible versions of the plain ol' vanilla Android versions of the apps that Google replaces (Messaging, Calendar, Browser, Launcher, etc), and then flashing one of the minimal opengapps packages on top of that.
Anyone have any insights on this or where to start? Thanks!

You should be able to remove/replace all the google apps other than chrome, the chrome homepage provider, velvet and anything other than the ones like GoogleExtShared,GoogleExtServices. Play music and google calendar and all those can go with no issues. Chrome and the others I listed can be removed, but if you do a data wipe, you'll have force closes form what I've found. I'm not sure how flashing gapps will work out. That doesn't normally work so good on stock ROMs.

Yes, they are in oem/privapp, but you can only modify oem in twrp. You also have to change some xml files. You can't just delete them.
If you're trying to get rid of all that (Google and moto apps, which will strip functionality away) why not just use a custom rom and micro g?

Why bother responding with ridicule if you weren't at least going to fully answer the question? Some people like stock without google and moto crap. Especially when there are no custom ROMs fully suitable for a daily driver for everyone.

I forgot that was you, lol. Hopefully you noticed I wasn't being rude here. I was just posing a query. And letting you know not to try to modify the oem partition unless you're in twrp, the phone will freeze if you do it while booted into Android.
P.S, you can change your nav bar buttons with a substratum theme called navigate. I have a bat symbol as my home key now. You can also use Xposed to change the location of the buttons (gravitybox). I use the systemless Xposed in magisk.

Google dialer and aosp dialer look very similar. Look in it's settings, or check the package name to confirm.

Look in oem/priv-app and see if you have a folder named GoogleDialerOEM, or something similar. It may be named different on your device, but it should be the same. If you don't see any GoogleDialer at all there, it was uninstalled. Do you see a green dialer icon in your app drawer? It's really not hard to figure out how to change those other apps you mentioned. You just need to delete the ones you don't want from /system/app or /system/priv-app and replace them with what you want. Some apps like some keyboards and galleries require additional files in /system/lib and sometimes symlinks to certain libraries to work properly. If you swap an app and get force closes that is probably why. A little tip, use this file manager: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1523691 You can just grant it root permissions and use it to copy the apps you want to system, and it will automatically set all permissions for the app, libs and all folders correctly without having to set the permissions manually. If I do much more for you, I might as well just make you a custom stock ROM.
Edit: make sure any updates for google dialer from the play store were removed. I thought I added lines to remove them no matter what they were named but I may have missed a possibility. I use a different google dialer and don't update it on the play store so I don't know exactly what it is named when it's installed to /data/app.
Edit-2: I just updated my google dialer from the play store, and the correct lines to remove it should be in the updater script of that zip. It should have removed it unless yours is named different in your oem partition.

I noticed earlier today that the new APKs for both the Oneplus 7 Pro Camera and the Oneplus 7 Pro Gallery apps are now available to download. The story says these APKs are compatible with all Oneplus devices running Android Pie.
I have a Oneplus 6T running Android Pie stock OOS 9.0.13. I have Camera 3.0.16 and Gallery 3.1.32 on my 6T. Is it perfectly safe to update the apps on my phone to the new Camera 3.2.91 and Gallery 3.2.7? I would sure like to hear from someone who has done this and hear all about your experiences either good or bad. Please advise me, and Thanks to all!
I will probably just backup my existing APKs to my computer, then install the new 7 Pro ones and try it out. If it doesn't work, I assume I can delete the new ones and restore. If that won't work someone please stop me! I really need my camera to work!!! Thank you
I'm on beta 10,camera is 3.2.91 & Gallery is 3.2.7

So maybe those new APKs are coming to the stable channel of OOS soon anyway! That would great.
Have you not tried to install these from APK mirror?

From my experience, slow motion is choppy on newer app and You can't lock AF/AE in Video/Slow motion anymore. I think that HDR is working diferent (More agressive???).
I'm installing old version because of not working Expo and Focus lock in video.

The 7 Pro has 3 cameras and the 6T only has 2. I have downloaded the files but not installed them just in case the hardware differences made camera crash.
I can install them, I just wanted to make sure I can go back if these new apks do not work on 6T.

That is exactly the kind of info I was looking for. Thank you so much.
Anyone else have same or different experience?
Front protrait mode doesn't work. Once you press it it gos black and freezes.
I installed the OP 7 Pro camera on my 6T. I am not rooted so I can't restore previous apk. I cannot revert back to original 6T camera. As such, can someone please post the 6T camera APK? Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee?
Thank you.

You can just go to the app info of the camera and tap the button on the top right corner and uninstall update

Go to Settings > Apps, find Camera, disable/uninstall updates, then enable it.
Download last version from : apkmirror version 3.0.37
Install like a normal app, and you are good to go.
But how can I meke it look like the op 7 pro has it.

Notifications bugged on rooted OnePlus 6T

Hi folks,
I've been having this problem with notifications for certain apps (facebook & discord in this case) ever since I rooted my OnePlus 6T.
In the case of facebook: notifications will come in after booting the app, maybe even twice.
In Discord's case: Notifications won't come in at all, and will come in after I've actually seen the messages or they do come in, but come in again after reading the message.
I thought it might be one of the Magisk modules I've installed, so I'll list them too.
Technical info:
Android Version: 9
Kernel version: 4.9.106-perf+
"build number": xXx_NoLimits_7.4a
OS: OxygenOS 9.0.16
Magisk version: 20.1
Magisk manager version: 7.4.0
Magisk modules:
App systemizer v17.2.2
Busybox v1.30.1
Debloater v17.2.1
Swift Installer module v4
Systemless hosts v1.0
Youtube Vanced v14.21.54(b01.40.20)
Substratum
xXx NoLimits 7.4a for OnePlus
I've messed around with the Swift themes and app systemizer to see if they were causing the problem, but no.
I'm not sure what other modules might be messing with the notifications, so there's that.
if anyone has an idea as to what might be causing the issues, I'd love to hear from you.
If not I might try to flash a custom OS and see if that works :silly:
(and yes I am kinda new to this all )
I know this is an old post and I see no one has replied. But I am having the same issue. Unlocked, rooted, using magical modules and only one app OfferUp is not getting notifications.
Did you ever find out what was causing this problem?

Hey Danny,
I never ended up finding the cause sadly.
I flashed Resurrection remix on my phone and that fixed all the issues.
Not the solution I wanted, but the one that worked.

Yes I read that too. I was going more for PiXen OS. I really like OOS 10, but it seems to be the actual problem. Was going to try factory reset, but I think it may be a waste of time.
I read on reddit and other places that this is an issue with OOS 10. I have read many have done everything from disabling deep idle sleep magisk module, turn off battery optimization, turn off adaptive battery and you name it..... Non resolve the problem.
Some say factory reset work and other not. What I have read it's a sure fix is going back to OOS 9.0.9 or installing a Custom ROM.

What's your opinion about Hydrogen OS?
Not sure 10 is the culprit, as OP was on 9, and I'm on lineage 16, which is 9 based. Maybe double tap to wake is the prob. I just turned it off. Report back in a few.

Notification problem solved by installing PiXen OS. Really nice looking Rom, easy to install if you are already on 10.3.4 OOS. Has stock camera, which was my concern and I will be installing the Oxygen launcher since I like it better. Basically it will be almost like the OOS, but with updated security updates and mod options.
No luck installing Op launcher. The only way is by downloading a op launcher port old version 4.10 and using quickswitch. The issue is that it doesn't switch to dark mode and goes to default icons after I restore my op launcher backup.

I don't like the lack of options the Pixel launcher has. The only other option would be the Nova launcher.
Edit:
Was able to learn how to get the OP Launcher in PiXeN OS. The latest patchable version QuickSwitch is able to patch is version OnePlus Launcher 4.4.8. Its stable and it has Google Feeds automatically. So far its stable and everything is working as it should....... Cant ask for more, Stable custom rom with stock OP camera, gallery and now OP launcher.
I figured out how to get the latest OP Launcher 4.5.9 working on PiXeN OS. Everything is working great.
Just got OfferUp notifications working and it seems I am getting more notifications now. I did a couple of things, but I think the one that fixed this whole notification issues was installing a custom kernel.
I installed ElementalX Kernel and after that I got notifications from the apps that I was not receiving it. I also disabled RAM Boost from system settings. I did noticed better performance with RAM Boost disabled. I believe ElementalX Kernel improved my OnePlus 6T overall. I am in Stock OOS 10.3.5 rooted with Magisk and TWRP permanently flashed.
