[Q] Question about CyanogenMod Installer And ROM Update?

Hi,
I've just install from the new installer CyanogenMod the ROM, after 2 automatique update, now it's tagged:
11.0-InstallerXNPQ32P
I think (from the note above the version) it's a M8.
What about the M9 and M10? It's comming in automatique Update (OTA) or I need to install it manualy?
Is the Installer version are something different as Mx?
ps: it's a very stable ROM (version), and I don't want change from a M9-10 right now, it's about know if updates are avaible from the Installer version and if a CyanogenMod 12 (Android L) comming, it's possible by Automatique Updater (OTA).

Hi, same question, please?

Me too ?

Personally, I would install TWRP, create a nandroid backup of your current ROM, manually flash an updated ROM and test the new ROM for a while. If the new ROM is unstable, restore your previous ROM from TWRP.

I think I have an even better question.
I hope this is a good question. I have loaded the CM installer version and to my delight I was back on 4.4.2 KK. I did not like the official 5.0.2 L update everything was slow and sluggish and I wanted to get back to root. Upon setting up my deb-razorg and after all apps were re-installed I had received a CM Installer update and I am now on 11.0-InstallerXNPQ32P aka 4.4.4. Click check for updates under system updates yields nothing it simply shows your system is up to date however during the process of updating google play services and I am sure frameworks somehow in my notification shade it shows System update available (Android 5.0.2 System update). I do not want to make this mistake again as this is what I saw using stock ROM right before going to Lollipop. The question is why would I get a separate OTA from Google why would I get an official OTA or AOSP update at the same time I had been getting back to back CM Installer updates? They appear to be two separate updates so not only do I not want to go back to Lollipop I am scared that would brick my tablet since I am on CM Installer. I cannot get rid of the official update from notification shade. Please help the question is not specific to the device I would just like to know why I am getting two different update prompts one official and one from CM installer?

Why can't I add all widgets to the homescreen?

I have tried updating my F to three different, new Lollipop ROMs (for different reasons), and none of them will let me add Go SMS and a few other of my regular widgets to the home screen. Is there a general bug with this? I came from the first Lollipop ROM from around March or so and had no such problems with that. But it was getting so full that I couldn't even update apps, and there were a few other things that didn't work as they should, so I needed an update. I have the latest ROM Kies wanted to give me, which is from May, for some reason. There are several newer versions, but that was what Kies gave me. The Nordic update from June didn't help either. Any idea what this can be?

Try installing Nova Launcher and setting that as your default launcher, see if the widgets will add to the homescreen then
It's a million times better than the stock touchwiz launcher anyway

Thanks! I tried that, but it crashed when I put in Go SMS. But Apex worked.

Newer versions of pixel launcher crashes instantly

I installed Pixel launcher via an APK file on my Honor 9 (from APK Mirror) and when I installed the newest version, it crashed. I tried to install some other versions of it and now an older version (7.1.1-3359438) is working. Has this to do with the Honor 9 running Android 7.0 instead of 7.1 or is there a way to fix it and get newer versions to work?

Try
Rootless Pixel Launcher. (Lawnchair is even better if you don't want to stick on stock Pixel Launcher)

Oreo Keyboard on Nougat?

We have had the latest unicode emojis forever without a working Samsung Keyboard and I'm tired of having to use Gboard. Now I see the lastest Oreo keyboards support the new unicode but it cant be installed on nougat despite being api level 24. All version 3+ and betas not installing as system apps or user apps for me on AQDG, can someone on the latest build see if they work?
Link to beta APKS here- https://www.apkmirror.com/?post_type=app_release&searchtype=apk&s=samsung+keyboard
EDIT: I downloaded the Oreo Beta roms and extracted those keyboards and got them to install, no new emojis in it.. I also swapped over the Noto/Samsungcoloremoji.tff and still no new emojis. Also tried swapping messaging app but no go, must be in the framework. Damn you Samsung!

Updating error - how to update for OxygenOS 10

Hi.
I just got my hands on a Oneplus 5. It's running OxygenOS-version 4.5.5 and Android version 7.1.1 in danish.
I want to update to newest stable OxygenOS version 10 but I get an error when trying to install it.
I downloaded Full OTA to OxygenOS 10.0.1 from https://www.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5-finally-gets-oxygenos-10-0-1-bug-fixes/.
Is it the newest version to install and why does I keep getting an error?

You cant update like that, you have to go through ver. 8, 9 and 10 seperatly. You can just jump to 10.
Is it an unrooted phone running 100% stock? if so go and download Oxygen Updater and let that update everything for you. You are going to have to go through all the updates but at least you can download each one after an other.
