Strange internal storage issues

When installing apps the storage manager is not registering the correct size to start off with. For instance a 1.5gb app is showing as total size of maybe 59mb. Under data for the apps it shows maybe 200kb.
Now the worse part is when uninstslling apps it does not race the data for the app. In order to remove the data and get my space back I have to boot into recovery and wipe cache.
Tried removing external SD card and trying it again and it's th deer same issue.
Also when attempting to move data to SD card it doesn't seem to really move anything but takes at least 30 seconds to do it and still requires the SD in the 0hone to run the app
Does anybody know what's up here and willing to tell me?
Thanks maybe.

Ok. Finally installed TWRP on the phone and made a backup.... I could just do it from there right?
Also considering trying either your rom or cm.. I had a couple more.precautionary questions if you could help..
1. When installing Rom I have found conflicting inforation on what needs to be wiped first ... most say just data, dalvik, and cache (so factory reset option in twrp) .... some say I need to wipe system as well. Witch is it?
2. Some roms seem to include supersu with them. If I have already installed it will that be any conflict ??
3. Installing stock rom require same process right?
4. Is there any version of cm that comes with kernel allowing over clock that is safexactly to flash from my current firmware ok3..?
I'm still not too sure about doing this but I can't figure another to solve the issues I am having with this phone, I got it used and it's off of warranty anyways.
Thanks...

1. Some ROMs, like mine, have the austen wipe built into the ROM.
2. No
3. That depends on if you are using Odin or recovery
4. I don't use CM, too unstable for me.

So that means at this point you wouldn't really need to wipe before installing wicked rom anymore?
Also decided against any over clocking now, changed to performance governors and things are working great now, especially games. No hitching, we're I was getting 10fps or less I cod strike team it's now 30.. so if I install a rom it will be wicked, especially the function on it "fix external SD write" fixes my storage management issues than that alone would be great and the debloat and performance tweaks would be a great bonus.
Thanks.

[AIO][SUB] How to pass SafetyNet

How to pass SafetyNet on unlocked Bootloader and custom ROMs
in this guide we'll go over how you can pass SafetyNet on custom ROMs, you need to have Magisk installed, check AIO guide for that
you need to pass basic integrity first, this guide will not help you if you broke that
Code:
Your warranty is now void.
We are not responsible for bricked devices, bootloop... Please
do some research if you have any concerns about mods
included in these GUIDES before using them! YOU are choosing to
make these modifications.
if you're on Stock and only have an unlocked bootloader, simply flashing Magisk should be enough to pass SafetyNet, if you're on a custom ROM, you need the following extra steps.
NOTE: if you just need to pass SafetyNet, follow the guide, if you want access to all Google Play apps which you can access on Stock, use this instead
Open Magisk Manager and go to the Downloads section, search for "MagiskHide Props Config" and install it, also search for "Busybox for Android NDK" and install it, then reboot.

install Terminal Emulator and open it
type the following commands, grant root access when asked
Code:
su
props
then follow the prompts to edit your device fingerprint by typing the corresponding command shown on screen
Edit device fingerprint
Pick a certified fingerprint
Xiaomi
Xiaomi Mi A2
y
and then reboot
After rebooting, clear data for Google play
You should now pass SafetyNet

updated to access all google play apps that you can access on Stock (Netflix, Asphalt 9 etc), you'll need to use another module

odd. May I ask what application you're using to show the status of your storage so I can try it out myself. I'm rooted running a custom ROM and kernel. Maybe its the app misreading/analyzing your storage?

I am on stock OOS 9.0.13 and only have 80MB free on my /system partition.
Since the /system partition is supposed to be read only then it wouldn't really matter if it is full, nothing will be writing to it anyway.
I have never had issues because of this and I remember even with my 5T the /system partition was always 99% full.
So there's probably nothing to worry about.

Apps that need root to modify something, give problems. For example, I use the Switf Installer to change all colors to black and I have problems. It was not like this before.

If you look in the OB11 thread there are a lot of people with your same issue. I don't think there's a fix, other than using the MSM tool and going back to stable.
Oh, and FYI, if you use TWRP to extend the storage of your system partition, you'll lose everything.

I just checked and it does seem that Swift installer modifies the /system partition. I have never had any issues with it though.
If you need more space in /system delete an app you don't use like Google Movies or Google Duo or something.
Or if you want all the space you can get then use this debloater script from Tomatot ( https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...ol-tomatot-debloater-basic-script-to-t3869427 )

It won't be a problem if you use systemless module for it:

I'm using systemless substratum themes and have no problem with little space.

Samsung pay on watch when rooted

Hello, I have a new one plus 8 pro and I am rooted. I also have a Galaxy watch and when I install Samsung pay on the watch it says call customer service device has been compromised even though I have magiskhide for all the Samsung modules. Does anyone have any ideas how to get this working?
Thank you in advance...

I have the same problem. Completely stock. So I wonder if it's a Samsung issue. I had the 6t rooted and I was able to use Samsung pay without any problems

Okay, I think I found the answer. In magisk settings, you need to rename the package to something else. It is the third option down in settings. After I change the name it worked like a charm and of course you have to hide the for Samsung modules in magiskhide...

Is this still working for you? It's definitely not working on my end with my Pixel. The newest Magisk Manager also does not allow you to select any apps to hide, it's a simple toggle on or off for Magisk Hide and renaming the Magisk Manager didn't do anything.
Did you have to reboot after the rename?

UPDATED Post : see next post for my solution that worked.
Hi aaronc_98,
Hope this is actually still working for you on your OP8 Pro!
When you say you need to rename the package, what are you referring to exactly?? The Samsung Pay app or Hide the Magisk App (renaming) in App settings?
Please provide more details on a step-by-step process you did to make it work on your OP device...if still working.
I have OP6T and it has stopped working recently and can't find a way to get back.
My setup:
OP6T, OOS 10.3.11
Galaxy Watch 46mm, latest OS installed (Jun 15, 2021)
Galaxy Wear App, SPAY Watch Plugin up to date. (Jun 15, 2021).
Thanking you in advance!

UPDATE,
Got it all to work!
Preparation:
- Install Galaxy Wearable
- Update Watch to the latest
- Install SP Watch Plugin (do not launch it at all)
Magisk Setup:
- Hide the following apps in MagiskHide: Hit the shield, Hit "MagiskHide" and select the apps:
a) Google Play Services
b) Samsung Health
c) SP Watch Plugin
* You can add banking apps here as well

}
Next, recommend hiding the Magisk App itself for the setup. Here is how to do it:
- Hit "Settings" (within Magisk App)
- Hit "Hide the Magisk App" (I used MGKSettings).
Magisk will accept it and repopulate itself.
For good measure, I rebooted my device to recovery (TWRP in my case) wiped "Dalvik / ART Cache" and rebooted to system.
Once rebooted, go to the SP Watch Plugin App INFO (Do not launch the App), got to Storage & Cache & Clear Storage & Cache (should be 0 on both) for good measure!
Launch Galaxy Wear and (Strongly Recommended) scroll down to setup Samsung Pay and follow the steps. **(I don't recommend doing the SPay setup through the Watch Plugin.)**
If you get a notice within 10 seconds saying that the device is not secure (can't remember the message), you may have missed something and you need to start over with clean install of the SP Watch Plugin (storage & cache cleared).
Worst case they may have updated the Samsung Pay, Samsung Health Apps & OOS and it's been blocked again. Therefore we would need to restart the whole process from scratch or find another workaround.
PS. Some of you would probably like to restore or Un-Hide the Magisk App, so I went ahead and did it....so far SPay seems to be working. I have not reboot my device neither, which I rarely do. (I have rebooted my device several times since this post)
For any reason, in the coming days, there is an issue of any kind, I will report back here. If not, it's all good!
Hopefully this can help some of you out there!

worked for me, thanks a lot

You shouldn't change anything in such partitions unless you're a Linux wizard. Or a classic wizard, like Merlin. Why would you even do that if it can be done systemless? There are plenty of ways to change your bootanimation via Magisk. I'm personally using Chainfire's LiveBoot.

I am a new to all this. I just wanted to change the boot animation so i did a google search and it showed that replace the bootanimation.zip file from /system/media.
So when i tried doing that, i was getting a storage full error.
How can i do it systemless, can you help?

Well sure but it's pretty straightforward. Before beginning you should note that flashing always contains the risk of data loss (BACKUPS!!) and/or device malfunction, even though the risk is much smaller when you approach things in a systemless manner. But as you have already unlocked and rooted your device, you've pretty much overcome this. System manipulation is usually not as simple as 'just replacing a file' because there's also file permissions to be set, file size limits and plenty of other variables to take into account.
With systemless flashing, it's much easier and safer because the original files are untouched and the correct parameters are set for you. Your system is rerouted to the patched files in the booting process. Take away this process (eg. by flashing Magisk uninstaller) and things are back to normal. Well, most of the time.
A good place to start for custom boot animations (and other goodies) is here: OnePlus 6T Themes, Apps, and Mods
In that section it's safe to say the mods will be compatible with your device. You may also find a thing or two in OnePlus 6T Guides, News, & Discussion.
Some things – like the LiveBoot I've mentioned earlier – will work universally but it's best to do your research before you throw anything at your device. You will find these in the more general sections of XDA.
If you found something you like, just read the instructions in the OP (Original Post) and follow them step by step. Also, if you're smart, read the last few pages too, to make sure it's still a working mod or if deviating instructions should be followed. You don't need to make the mistakes others already made for you. It's mostly just dropping a module in Magisk or installing an app and give it root access. For this MacLaren mod, which replaces the boot animation, fingerprint animation, etc. it's the first method: flash module and reboot. However, last pages reveal that functionality on Android 10 is either erratic or non existent. So best only flash on Pie. I hope this helps you on your way.
