LineAge OS Developer Mode Missing - LineageOS Questions & Answers

Hello Everyone,
Some weeks back I installed latest version of LineAge OS : 14.1-20170209-UNOFFICIAL-onyx on my one plus X phone. So after playing around with it found that there were lots of issues so I decided to uninstall it and tried it by tapping 7 times on the build number and guys nothing comes up. I am not able to activate Developer Mode on my phone. Need your help ASAP !!!
Build Number : onyx-userdebug 7.1.1 NMF26V feaeeb615e test-keys. So guys need your inputs because it contains lots of bugs. No notification feature etc. So please I don't have any idea what should I do so please post your suggestions.

Guys any inputs ?? Pls help me

One more thing guys... Below are the things which are not working on my phone

Which setup wizard ur talking about ?>

Download https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sika524.android.quickshortcut
•search for setup wizard and launch it.
Problem solved.

It didn't work for me. When trying to open Setup Wizard, it says App isn't installed.

For me, the Setup Wizard also didn't work. I used TWRP to wipe Dalvik Cache, System, Data and Cache and then re-installed the ROM. That is pretty much a factory reset (didn't lose any photo's and other files), but it worked.

One plus one - lineage OS devolper options location.
if you are googling this in 2019 then it is a bit more hidden in Lineage OS. After tapping the build number 7 times. select system (It's above about phone) > Tap Advanced and it's the second last option. It took me a while figure this out.
If you come from stock rom it normally is in the main menu of settings. Personally it was a bad design choice to put it there instead of the default location.

Change USER everything stops

Hey all,
I'm running the Last Paranoid Android Rom witch includes awesomes features like Pie controls/ per app DPI and different user sessions (the reason i chose PA).
The thing is, when i create a new user, i go to configure it, lock the screen, rotate it, select the new user, unlock the device and then boum ! Black screen, hundreds of pop ups show up like "Gmail has stopped" "Phase Beam has stopped" "Android Keyboard has stopped" and as i press ok, a new pop up shows up ! It's impossible to use another user so i Just lock the device and go back to my session.
So my questions are :
- is it an experimental feature ?
- Am i doing something wrong ?
- does some of you make it work ?
- if you do, what Rom are you on ?
Thanks in advance for your answers !

You probably didn't do a Factory reset before going to the Paranoid Android
Either that or the Nightly/rom you are using isn't very stable.
Hy,
I was on the PA 3.10 4MARCH First. When i flashed this rom, i did factory reset wiped data and caches. But then the update PA 3.10 6MARCH came out. I dowloaded it and flashed it. Since it's an update, no need to factory reset ou wipe data or cache.
Maybe that's the problem ?
I don't think it is cause i followed instructions from the official thread...
Thanks for your answer tho'

Google has limited multi-user support to tablets. I can't speak as to whether or not devs have gotten it working on phones since I spend most of my time on the N7 scene.

Bug Report: [ROM][WIP][PORT] CyanogenMod 11 M8 4.4.4 [BETA]

Hi there,
First off I would like to thank AngSanley for his work on the 4.4.4 CM 11 ROM, absolutely excellent development and keep up the good work. Hopefully I thought I would make a bug report here since i still can't post in the X development section:
1. Phone.apk problems:
a. Operator and Caller names coincide with each other (Issue was mentioned before in the thread however still looking forward to hearing from @AngSanley for a reply)
b. Repeated Missing Calls crash the com.android.phone process and the only solution is to call the missing call to get the phone app running again. To emulate that leave the call until it ends twice and see what happens
2. System Processes
In Jelly Bean and Ice Cream Sandwich you were able to disable system stock apps such as Browser, email, messages and it was possible to install the playstore apps as a replacement. I was wondering if it's still possible to enable that in the current ROM or it's not a bug as of the new releases.
Note: This also includes Trebuchet since I'm not currently using it.
3. Reboots in some cases disables the home button action in UDNB and prevents the lockscreen process from running properly which requires me to reinstall the ROM and Gapps while clearing cache and Delvik or by force stop and enabling lockscreen (which gets me to problem 2 sometimes).
Thank you again for the ROM and looking forward to hearing about upcoming updates with the ROM.
For the first issue, the problem is known. I mentioned it but it's difficult to fix.
For the third issue though, I found a solution. I disabled UDNB and installed Soft Buttons app. If the buttons crash, I disable them from the app and immediately enable them again. I reboot and... that's all!
(as for the second, I use some stock apps, so I can't tell you for sure)

Hopefully it gets addressed because it makes the phone literally unusable. The current list by AngSanley doesn't show it so I hope it's addressed to him.

No problem it's fine. The imitation of it can be made if you even disable messages for example. It shows immediately that the phone loses functionality especially in the lockscreen process.
I'm really looking forward to hearing from @AngSanley on these. Especially on the phone process issue .

Unfortunately I won't be able to do that since I just bricked my phone while formatting to the original stock version lol. I'm currently stuck on Nokia Emergency Connectivity and will be sending it to the Nokia care center next month haha. I'll be doing a fresh install when I get it back.
PS: I'm guessing no solutions for this problem outside the warranty am I right?

I'm also facing same issues..is there any fix available?
Same issue in Yureka Plus
Screen locks for a few seconds while using and sets wallpaper to default wallpaper .. Cannot believe it is an official ROM. How can a company treat its customers like **** ..Powerful specs ,only to be destroyed by the worst software optimisation :crying:
screen getting off while using mobile
I'm also facing same issues..is there any fix available?
It is the common problem facing by most of the members in cm12.1, the solution is use the system theme rather than any other theme.
My yureka is on CM 12.1 and Android 5.1. Now when using the device it locks automatically and wall paper changes to default automatically. The screen locks freequently. I cant use the device or cant even set a wallpaper for sometime as it changes automatically.
Same problem with me
When I contacted customer care they stated me to do flashing. But still it has not gone away. After that they said that we will replace your device. I don't know whether they will give me a replaced 2nd hand mobile or a new one. Should I go for exxgange or is it a software problem that will fine in future.
Hey I have got a solution for this . Go to your device settings and then Privacy. Then go to privacy guard. There are three dots on upper right corner. CLICK ON THAT AND SELECT SHOW BUILT IN APPS. Now search for Google play services and hold on Google play services. Scroll downside and search for auto start and keep awake. Turn them off. But keep sure that (keep awake ) is enabled.
If it help you please thanks me.
If Finally your Problem is not solve then install Flash File of 12.1 from Below Link and again Flash then use without any issue.:-----

I've been using this with Ting. Seems more stable than the CM-11 build that I was using. Mms & cell data are the two things that do not work out of the gate for me. Wondering how this shapes up with Sprint. I vaguely remember cell data working, but I don't think the default mms app did. However, I was able to use a third party mms app for pictures.
If this works well for people I'll see what I can do about getting my changes pulled upstream.

What gapps version to use?
Thanks for providing this! I've installed it, to replace my cm-12-20151108-NIGHTLY-ls970.zip ROM. But I haven't been able to find a gapps download that will work with this (all Google services keep crashing) or fail to installed (Status 6). Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks!
gapps version
I was able to get this working. After battling through a barrage of pop-up messages telling me that various google apps had crashed (repeatedly for each one), I got into Play Store and did an update all. I had to uninstall/reinstall Keep and Messenger, and now all seems well.
The only thing I'm currently having a problem with is Titanium Backup, which keeps crashing no matter what I've tried.
Otherwise, all seems to be working well. I'm hoping that a the flaky problems I was having with the previous CM-12 ROM will be fixed with this version.
For whatever reason, no matter what version of CM12 I install, wifi does not work. I'll put in the password and then it times out "failing to authenticate." Have you run into this issue? Any known fixes?

My wifi is working. With the previous CM12 install I did have a problem where wifi would stop working after it was connected ("!" next to the wifi indicator), and I'd have to turn the wifi off and on again to fix it. I haven't experienced that problem yet with this build, though it's too soon to know if that problem has gone away.

Yeah I just went through unrooting and going to stock (where it worked fine) and now tried again to install without luck. I don't understand this problem or what could possibly be the issue at this point.
Edit: I have noticed that I'm not seeing my 5 GHz network although it was available in stock.
Profile switcher
It seems the option to switch profiles from the power button is gone. In the settings for buttons, there's an option to show "Airplane Mode", but not the profile selector. I do have multiple profiles created, so it's not because of that.

Hey geodosch, same experience here with pop up errors with one difference, I was not able to get into Play Store... I only have four com.google.* green droid icons, and after clicking them I get 'App isn't installed'. Which gapps did you install, any other tips?
Many thanks!
I tried quite a few, but the one I eventually used was downloaded from opengapps.org. Select ARM; 5.1; Micro. You may want to use a different variant based on your needs. The details of what's in each is here.
The filename for the one I used is 'open_gapps-arm-5.1-micro-20160304.zip'
I don't recall anything else special I needed to do. I hope this helps!
A couple of issues
I've found was appears to be a bug in the call log. Whenever I make an outgoing call, the call log shows an incoming call at the same time, with the ID of "unknown".
The other is an intermittent problem, which I haven't been able to determine how to reproduce. Sometimes the screen will go black, with the exception of the top status bar. I've had it happen when unlocking the phone, and also when opening a new app. Once this occurs, I've only been able to recover by rebooting. Holding the power button does bring-up the reboot screen, and as mentioned the status bar is fine, so it doesn't appear to be related to the display driver. I also took a screenshot when it was in this state, and the image is what the screen looks like: black with a status bar.
Sorry for the seemingly silly question, but where is the download? Following the link leads me to a wiki which leads me to a nightly build from mid 2015.

Did you click the "Downloads" tab near the top of this topic? (Between "Discussion" and "Reviews") There should be a link there to "cm-12.1-20160127-UNOFFICIAL-ls970.zip", dated 2016-01-28.
Thanks for the tip on where to find the download. This is actually a really clever thing to do; integrating the download into the forum navigation itself.

I'm having a lot of trouble getting Google Apps installed. I get the messages about the failures, but no Google Play store appears. I've tried on the latest "nano" release -- I'll try the exact file you mentioned.
One difference may be that I'm on TWRP 2.8.3.0 -- what's your recovery? Mine cries foul about no SELinux context support in the kernel, and I also noticed the Gapps blob said something about fixing SELinux permissions (it doesn't report success or failure). After installation there are 4 or 5 "google logo" icons that don't do anything, labeled com.android.google.whatever that don't open, instead claiming "XXX isn't installed" where XXX is the name of the app. Another poster here said the same. Anyway, I'll try that particular file and cross my fingers!
Edit: nope. Transferred the Gapps zip to the storage, booted into recovery, wiped everything except internal storage, flashed the ROM, flashed the GApps, reboot. Still get a bunch of green lifeless icons that won't load any app. What to do?
Ah, looks like I was right. It's the silly SELinux thing. The trick is to go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2524485 and set the phone to permissive. Which you can totally do because you can go into the build info and click build number until you get "developer mode" enabled and enable root access in apps. Then everything works perfectly, even from a seemingly glitched install, regardless of GApps version. Pretty nice eh?
I'm gonna let everything update and then try reenabling SELinux, for kicks.
[edit]Ah, rebooting screws everything up again until the SELinux changer finally loads and changes things to permissive. So it doesn't exactly stick at boot. Still looking for a permanent fix...

I'm running ClockworkMod 6.0.4.7. It's been a while since I originally installed the CM ROM, but I know I didn't have any luck with TWRP, though I can't say for certain that it was at fault... it may have been due to some other issue which I later fixed, and switching to CWM may have been incidental.
I've found that using the official CM recovery fixed my gapps woes.
On another note, GPS isn't working for me.
So, I totally didn't see any notifications that this thread was active. I've been working on trying to get Marshmallow up and ran into a dead end. So, I came here.

Same here, although it doesn't do it for all callers, I'll rebase on the newest code and see that does the trick.

I experienced the same. Although, I haven't in some time, since I stopped trying to use multiple profiles, that must contribute. adb still works as well, and I tracked the error in the code and it was right next to a TODO item. Go figure. If you see it again and are next to a computer, see if you can't get a logcat so I can check on that code again.

On another note, GPS isn't working for me.

I read somewhere that you may need to get a lock in a ZVC build before flashing. Try that. It sounded like hog wash to me, and didn't work when I tried it. But, after updating the libs, all was fine. So, maybe both conditions must be met. On a positive note, I rarely have GPS enabled, but when I flip the switch, it comes on. So, it's not like you need to leave it on across reboots.

So, I totally didn't see any notifications that this thread was active. I've been working on trying to get Marshmallow up and ran into a dead end. So, I came here.

Same here, although it doesn't do it for all callers, I'll rebase on the newest code and see that does the trick.

Glad to see you taking I look here. I really don't want to replace my Optimus G, since all phones now seem to be either low-end performance or over-sized. So I'm glad I can still keep mine going with these builds.

I experienced the same. Although, I haven't in some time, since I stopped trying to use multiple profiles, that must contribute. adb still works as well, and I tracked the error in the code and it was right next to a TODO item. Go figure. If you see it again and are next to a computer, see if you can't get a logcat so I can check on that code again.

I hadn't tried adb before rebooting (Murphy's Law: whenever it happened I was often doing some time-constrained task, so I just rebooted as quickly as I could.) But the next time it happens I'll connect and check the logs. It's interesting that you mention multiple profiles, because it seems to have happened several times in my car, and I have profiles set-up to switch when the car bluetooth connects/disconnects.
If you're going to be poking around in the code, another issue that I've been having is the default app for the browser no longer seems to work consistently. I know this worked on an older CM12 build, and think it used to work on this one. But when something launches a browser I'm very often prompted for which one (Chrome or Browser.)

In the power menu, I see an option to switch users (which is disabled, since I don't have multiple users set-up), but I don't see an option for Profiles.

Lineage OS 16 - Pixel Launcher Keeps Stopping

Finally figured out how to install Lineage... I think... it's installed for sure but not working. When at first startup it asked to choose a launcher, I picked PIXEL because had no idea which was which, and now I have no desktop, just the wallpaper and every 10sec the message pops up saying Pixel Launcher Keeps Stopping.
Went into the app, force stop, cleared cache and data, reboot and no change. No icons or anything so can't get into Play and download another launcher either.
Any ideas? I have 0 rooting/image/lineage type experience. My old tablet was a Nexus10 and Wugfresh did everything for me so, kinda new to this.
Thanks

Looks like you have a strange lineageOS version. Normally there is only trebuchet launcher. You can always restart installation at the step in twrp wipe system and data.

I followed howtogeek.com/348545/how-to-install-lineageos-on-android (I'm too new to post links).
Maybe it's the GApps? was vague on that stuff and were like 8 options and no idea which to choose so went for the Stock version
I need to redo it again anyways... followed directions but SuperSU not working right... tablet does show rooted but when I went to install Pokemon Go, immediately says won't work on rooted devices. Stupid Niantic. Doesn't matter, I never used anything that needed Root anyways. I'm a pretty basic user. Just want the games and Chrome to work really... but ever since 7.1 downloaded to the tablet, quite a few people with the same tablet can no longer play Marvel Contest of Champions because of the insanely long load screens and lag. From what I tried so far, this fixed it.
I'll try the install of LineageOS again but leaving out SuperSU and GApps.

There is a XDA'er playing Pokémon go without GApps. Search for @Setialpha and his nanodroid project.

All working now... tried without GApps and didn't like it, couldn't figure out where Google app store button was etc... so redid it again, same way as before with GApps but, left out the SuperSU which is what rooted the tablet, and works fine now. Just made sure when started up, not to choose Pixel as a launcher.
Need to figure out a few things... hoping a way to switch around the clock... time in the top/left corner is weird... never had a phone/tablet where it wasn't top/right. But small issues like that... just happy that certain apps are running properly again. Have playing games on a phone, I have big hands.
One issue I can't sort out yet... when I hold down on the background I get options for home settings, widgets and wallpaper...when I click to change wallpaper it just says app not installed

How did you get it to work all over again? I have a similar problem with no idea of how to boot my phone back in recovery mode (TWRP) and flash another GApps/ROM. I was using ADB command and honestly, I'm green on this.

Can't recall... spent hours on this thing to make it work and now that it does I haven't touched the installer since.
Fixed
I rebooted into TWRP, copied on my computer the file "/data/system/packages.xml" edited under <package name="com.google.android.apps.nexuslauncher" ... and <perms>, I added the following lines:
<item name="android.permission.STATUS_BAR" granted="true" flags="0" />
<item name="android.permission.MANAGE_ACTIVITY_STACKS" granted="true" flags="0" />
(watch the screenshot)
saved the new xml and put back in /data/system/ with TWRP file manager... and the crash was fixed, no need to install other stuff!
wrong forum. Delete
