7.1.2 Dirty Unicorns Rom

This is just a heads-up about a 7.1.2 Rom by Anderson Mendes. Saw it somewhere and downloaded it, works very well. You need to flash a zip called motoactionfix with the Rom. Latest beta SuperSu works, as does 7.1 Gapps.

well, but I get a configuration error on the start screen ...... what happend.... I flashed the pico gaaps

Yes. Its working well. I am using it from 2 days. Only one random reboot initially after installing. Till now all basic things working.
Installing ROM and gapps together gives setup widget fc.
But Flashing ROM, reboot, flash gapps works fine.

Installed it, works really well.
Was able to install Substratum with 7.1.1 Themes.
THANKS!

You CAN'T' post any DU roms on XDA. Ffs, take this down.

Pulse not working properly & equalizer too..

That's not actually true. An "Urban Myth" perhaps.

Any bugs?

Well the only bug, and it seem to be common on AOSP roms, is that the Navbar Editor is listed in Settings but it can't be invoked.
Anyone know a workaround to change the order of the navbar buttons?

Same error

I didn't get any problems with 11.2 , used without gapps.
Today I've installed 11.3 build made by @Kranoner, In this I didn't have apns , I've created manually but I get 2G connection only.
Pulse doesn't show up with poweramp .

Flash Rom + Supersu

Network location in Android 7.1.2 [tasker]

I tried now lineage, xenon hd and resurrection. In every 7.1.2 ROM I am unable to get the network based location.
Unfortunately the only way I I know to read this battery saving location is by using tasker(which need to work for me)
Google maps is working without GPS. But I think just because near WiFi.
Can anyone check to read the network based location with tasker in a 7.1.2. ROM?
I already checked my APN settings,my sim card and the android right policies for tasker.... No luck at all

It seems that you have similar problem like me and others:
"Network Location Provider" doesn't work with up-to-date Google Play Services
Location not correct when indoors

Thanks for the links. And indeed, it seems like the same problem.
What surprises me is that this bug dont appeal to this community here. For me it is an important feature of google service which we cant use with our OP2.
Furthermore i dont understand why this bug seems to be a bug according to our device.
For me it is ja software bug with no relation to our hardware?
I hope this error gets more pushed soon

For me, this is also a big problem, because I often need to see geotags in my picture where I made this or that photo. But geotags are not recorded in photos, but if they are recorded, then only one place even if I have already passed 2 kilometers.
There are two solutions - to put Google-camera, but there is very dark video in case of insufficient illumination, the second - to put another ROM. I tried almost all the firmware and only two did not have problems:
Resurrection Remix M [5.7.4]
LineageOS 13.0
But one more problem because of which I will soon change my OP2 is a poor autonomy.

Thanks. As far as i know the 3.6.0 updates is based on Android 6.0.1. and therefore no android 7.1.x
However you are right, it seems to be the only fix for now. No Android 7 With this feature.
I am just wondering why

Downgrading from Pie ROM to Stock Oreo?

I just found out that Oreos starting to roll out to retus today, and while I've had ArrowOS on my phone for about a month, it's starting to become unstable in some places. I'm going to move back to stock since most of the features I wanted from Oreo are still here. Can anyone tell me what I need to do to ash it?

You can flash Oreo flashable zip for TWRP. If I remember correctly your data encrypts or something so you need to format data to get read and write access to storage. Remember this wipes everything ! I did this yesterday successfully. I'm running Pixys OS with Oreo firmware. I think you also need Oreo firmware to get a LTE signal.
Good luck

Nokia X6, now 6.1 plus with SKUID CN, still on 8.1... shall I try Pie?

Hi,
I got a Nokia X6 TA-1099 in September 2018, with Custom Oreo Rom (locked!) and rooted.
I unlocked it, loaded the Global Oreo one for Nokia 6.1 Plus few months ago and prompted to upgrade to Pie 3.45 right after. Once I did it, I noticed screen issues (much large screens, going out of the edges basically). One of the members of this forum told me that this happens when the SKUID is CN instead of WW. I checked and mine was CN. The phone is also recognised as TA-1103 now.
since I need a locked phone for banking, certified etc... I downgraded to Oreo Security Patch August 2018 and locked the phone "forever". I then disabled the automatic updates.
do you know if newer releases of Pie (like V3.54H which I am prompted about) will "fit" my screen properly even though I have SKUID CN? Or shall I just wait for Android Q that perhaps does not have this issue?
I am worried I will need to downgrade and I won't be able to do it anymore.
Thanks!

The SKUID will always trouble you. Because starting with Pie. parts of the OS rely on the SKU to enable/disable certain services. You're better off with either of the two:
1. Be on CN ROM and keep your CN SKUID.
2. Be on WW ROM but change your SKUID to WW.
3. Stay on Oreo (bonus lol)
The broken Status bar will continue to bug you when on Pie with CN SKUID. Also, some system features will remain missing/broken, including double-tap to wake.

Hi
Can I change the SKUID to WW now that I am on Oreo 8.1 August 2018 patch?
I am not finding any info to confirm this, but I appears that Nokia is now allowing unlock.
I would like to:
- change SKUID to WW
- relock
- upgrade to Pie and follow all the future automatic updates
Do you think this is possible?
Thanks for your help as always.

Nokia does not allow unlock. You will need to resort to the paid methods.
Sent from my Nokia 8.1

Please can you send me some links so I can proceed accordingly?

Looking to root Moto G7 - XT1962-6

Hi,

Model - XT1962-6
Software - retin
Build - QPUS30.52-16-2-7-7
I simply want to get LineageOS with TWRP and Root. I have searched but have not found anything related to my model. I don't want to brick the device so if anyone can assist me by directing to the correct method, it will be a great help!
Thanks in advance

Hi dcybergeek,
Welcome. I have the exact same than that you do. I started here looking to do a twrp/magisk root like I did back with my Motp G5 Plus...was np prob find everyone did it. NOT SO for our plain G7. Being a novice, I gave up.
Now I drop to look and ask (beg) to see if anyone knows of magisk root...with or without using twrp if need be. The silence has been deafening...no yes or no or maybe...after nearly begging.
No pne could be bothered to give a simple reply...over n over as can be seen all over! And I thought was THE PLACE on to net for help, but no.
Luckily YES...Lineage 17.1 does work on our phone!! I'm about to just give up on on findi ANY FORM of a Magisk root, I guess.

Hi Zaxx32 , thanks for putting this up for me.
True that regarding the pixel 4a. I am thinking of moving on to that or even if I could get a better deal on the 3a.
I am still thinking to try out these guides. Worse scenario, dead phone and a chance to buy a new one

Update for someone else if looking for help/advice:
The LineageOS 17.1 nightlies works well. Managed to install Lineage OS 17.1 from XDA with TWRP. Next up will try Magisk and share the progress

I wish u the best of luck...unfortunately, you're gonna need it...esp if u have questions. When I asked just the BASIC question 'if river could successfully be magisk rooted via twrp now that a new version of twrp for river had been released?'...the silence was...still, deafening. Either there are still issues or it now works but those who know how have taken an oath os secrecy OR they just can't be bothered to help those of us stil 'learning android'...I dunno which! My point being...if it doesn't work...JUST SAY SO! lol

Yes, that adds as a contributing factor. But I think it's still well-supported (at least for now).
Anyways, back to your original question. The first thing you need is to unlock the bootloader.
But before that:
1) Take a backup as everything will be erased during bootloader unlock.
2) Download and set up Android SDK platform-tools on your computer.

Omg...DJBhardwaj...do you know how to root the G7 via twrp + Magisk??

IMO, always be ready for a brick when dealing with such things for the first time. It's not like it's bound to happen, but it could. Especially with all the confusion because of all the different tutorials out there.
Rooting/TWRP/ROMs only deal with non-critical partitions, so even if it gets brick, you can easily recover.
LOL no, please. No need to compensate for anything. It's a public forum, and we all are here voluntarily.
Just hit me up on PM, Telegram, or Discord.

Sure. I will try and help as much as possible. It was confusing at first to me as well, but I managed to wrap my head around with enough reading (thanks to some awesome members of the community).

No doubt...I was 'mentored' thru my first root by Wolfcity. The kicker was I'd never used a smart phone til about 8 months b4. Always been a Windows Desktop PC guy n feature phone (burner) user. Leaned a lot...quickly..lol
Ttys...need some rest atm.

Have you tried shifting to a custom kernel? Are all users of LOS 17.1 facing sudden hangs?
As for K-9, I believe it's more related to syncing issues. It could be that the K-9 app is not able to run background sync.

Zaxx32 as stated above by both me and DJBhardwaj the very best rather than PM, offsite links would be to go through any XDA related thread.
I understand you are looking for root on stock and not lineage and or any other roms.
If it is to regain privacy I still recom you simply go lineage and or other rom.
And if you still want to root on stock, then there is a high chance it won't work based on the -6 model you own. The best I would suggest is disable unwanted apps if unable to delete. Keep google to the bare minimum (do not sync them all). Use unrooted adblockers, set permissions accordingly and set custom dns under network settings.

I cannot speak for them all, but yes I too suspect kernal issue as the lineage is supported for my -6 model but I suppose not to a full 100%. Other than this, I am not facing any hard errors just sometimes random freezes for 2-3 seconds but to me it is bearable.
