Great, friend! Congratulations!

Just when you think "Nexus development is no more" along comes Vartom. Thank you

Everything seems smooth. A couple of observations so far:
- Lost Vulkan. Not sure if I will miss it though.
- LiveDisplay can't turn on. The setting doesn't stick.

Thanks for putting up your work. Greatly appreciated

Thanks for your work. It works well for the most part, performance is good.
2 issues I've found so far:
- LiveDisplay doesn't work
- Setting screen lock pattern makes SystemUI unresponsive for a long time (it will finish eventually), and when unlocking first time after setting pattern, it may also stuck a little while. Pin or password not tested, but I guess they would be same, because this also happens after reverting screen lock to just swipe.

You can install the wifi version. Testing the LTE version does not make sense. It is already clear that the drivers for supporting the LTE modem do not work correctly.

thanks will take a look. again do i have to decript to install this build as i have an unofficial lineage 14.1 build on the device, but i am not sure if its decripted or not. how do i go about decripting it to isntall your build. thanks again for keeping he device alive with the issue it had with HW video playback.

I used opengapps for arm64 8.1 micro. Regarding decryption, I did not check the performance of encryption, but judging by the reports of a problem with unlocking, encryption can also be a problem. I did not check this moment.

I've installed it tonight from 14.1 - booted into TWRP, factory wiped, added 15.1 zip and gapps, installed, wiped caches then rebooted in less than 10 minutes.. Amazing the difference in speed, very quick. All my apps installed a lot quick than previous version did.
I'm not having the slow down at the lock screen (using PIN).
I am however unable to install Netflix from the Play store (not compatible with your device), and using the apk results in an error "This device is not supported by the app".

I think that it is connected with DRM, I will check it.

For some reason, I can't get past setup. I'm stuck at the voice assistant step of setup after flashing and factory resetting.
If I accept to use Google Assistant, I am required to train it to my voice with "ok Google" except nothing happens. Or I can tap no thanks, which should skip this section. Only, no thanks loops back to the beginning of the voice assistant setup. How do I move forward?

I have no problem installing and using Netflix. I had to select Google Play Services in Magisk Hide for Netflix to appear on play store. Alternatively, IIRC, the APK from apkmirror worked too.

But how? The voice training step won't accept my voice. I speak ok Google and nothing happens. I try to skip it and it loops back to the assistant settings again. There is no passing it. Every time I say no thanks, it loops back again. I've tried countless times. And I don't understand why it won't accept my voice either.

Yes, tethering worked. I had a reboot after exiting out of ES, and restoring my backup for Rom Toolbox hangs every time in Titanium, but the rest of my 50 or so apps restored and seem to work fine. I've seen reports of Youtube and various other media apps not working but also others claiming they were working find, so YMMV.

I Wonder
can we use rom from International Note3 directly without changing any lib or other ?
ROM itself works very well, WiFi seemed okay, wasn't able to test calling, BT, or GPS unfortunately.
Anyone else get a crash followed by a bootloop after enabling Google Now (happens a few seconds after switching on in google settings, repeatable)? Happened to me twice, both on clean flashes. Had to go back to my previous ROM because I needed my phone.
If no one else can reproduce the problem, I'll try to get last_kmsg.
If you have t-mobile note don't change anything
Just flash it and gaps and then flash supersu.zip

Great work but mega still is a pita. Won't open the email confirmation link to setup an account.
I was running this for a bit last night, the following gave me reboots:
Google Plus - instant reboot when opening
Google Play Music - Instant reboot when opening
Pandora - Instant reboot when opening
Netflix - Instant reboot when opening
Entering settings and attempting to reconfigure wifi - Reboot
All in all, it was AWESOME to see lollipop on my tmo note 3, but had to switch back to temasek's CM11 rom because I stream LOTS to my chromecast using the above programs....and without those, I can't use it as a daily.
Thanks to Tony for building and posting a link though!

[Guide] Install official ROM and Google Playstore

Hello,
I found a tutorial on how to install the google playstore on the Nubia Z17. It's to long to repeat it here. Anyway for me it worked. I first unlocked bootloader, then I installed the official ROM V2.44 and Open Gapps. After that playstore works until you reboot. To get it working there is a small workaround that takes only 1-2 Minutes and includes activating the airplane mode. Unfortunatly you have to do it every time you reboot your device. The good news is that the Google Playstore finally works. You can find the tutorial here:
https://www.china-phone.net/nubia-z17-playstore.html
Hope this helps other Nubia Z17 Users too

My phone is working normal.
1. Reinstall the original ROM 2.44
2. Unlock bootloader and install TWRP
3. Root the phone
5. Install Open Gapps Arm64 7.1 Full
6. The phone restart and do the Factory Reset
7. Open Google Play and insert your Google account. It will take several minutes for Google to work.
8. Press the circle-home button to start multi task. Pull down the Google Play until you see 'lock icon'.
9. You're done
Note: when your Google stop working, just go to Flight Mode for 1-2 minute and try to authenticate again.
Always keep your Google running by lock it on multi tasking.

Some aspects of Google apps still have bugs. For me, Google Calendar doesn't work and Photos doesn't sync. For full function we'll just have to be patient (or try a custom ROM maybe)

I tried today and i found that after updating to 2.48 we should do clean install after unlock botloader, root and installing gapps. If not the google play wont be working properly.

Hi,
Yes I'm a newbie... We have to begin one day
I just received the phone.
After the first power on (plugged) and Wifi connection, the phone automatically did two updates :
original (2.39 ?) to 2.44
2.44 to 2.48.
When I bought the phone, it was mentioned that gaps are not available at that moment (GeekBuying)
Now, they do not mention this limitation on their web site (and the price goes lower )
Is there a new "international complete official ROM ?"
Thanks

Android Auto Broken for me since Oreo! Problem persists across OOS and Custom Roms!

I am having major issues with android auto since Oreo
Essentially, what is happening is that the Android Auto app itself will work with two and only two apps. They are Google Maps and Google Play Music.
My problem is, none, and I truly do mean no other 3rd party apps will work with Android Auto.
I should also restate that this is a problem with the Android Auto app itself, so let's pretend no head unit or car is involved. This can be replicated on just the phone.
Here's the behavior:
-Open android auto
-Open any 3rd party app (Let's say IheartRadio)
Either one of two things happen next:
-Instantly get a screen that says "IHeartRadio Doesn't Seem to Be Working"
OR
-IHeartRadio starts like it should, and is able to play music for about 15 seconds, and then I get "Doesn't seem to be working" screen
-This happens for every 3rd party app, not just IHeart, but Plex, TuneIn, Radio Scanner, EVERYTHING except Google Play Music and Google Maps.
I should also state that Android Auto and 3rd party apps worked without a hitch, absolutely flawlessly in Nougat.
And, I've asked around the OP5t forums here and nobody is having the same problem.
-------
What I've tried so far (And hasn't worked)
-Re installing Android Auto
-Re installing every 3rd party app and re-trying
-Installing a custom ROM (Oreo) (Same exact behavior right after factory reset flashing new rom )
-Tried installing 3rd party apps from a non google play source
-Flashing OOS 8.0 Stable, as well as OB4 thru factory wipes
What I haven't tried:
-Re-locking the bootloader and flashing back to OOS nougat (Would this even help?)
I'm totally at wits end here, folks. I bought the OP5t to accompany my new car as my old phone couldn't handle android auto, this is one of the most imporatnt features to me.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Would flashing back to nougat and locking the bootloader like the phone was brand new help me? I've never seen such a problem that persists through clean flashes.
Thank you kindly everyone,
Hey!
I had this exact same problem.
I managed to solve this.
I am on OOS Open Beta 4.
Install latest:
Android Auto:
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/android-auto/
Android System Webview:
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/android-system-webview/
Google Maps:

Google Play Services:
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-play-services/google-play-services-12-2-21-release/
After installing all the apps, reboot your phone.
Android auto should work smooth again!
Just FYI, the bootloader status (locked/unlocked) has nothing to do with this.

Ohh that is really weird. Make sure you install all the Google Beta apps, and also the latest Android Auto version.

Yes, I'm using the dash cable that came with the phone, but this problem is isolated within the android auto app. I don't need to connect it to the car to get the issues I'm having. Just launching the app on the phone itself and starting up a 3rd party app will trigger the "seems to not be working" screen.
If I connect it to the car, the same behavior happens. No issue with the connection to the car since I'm still able to use Maps and Play.
I'm considering flashing back to nougat to see if it works and OTA'ing til I get stable 8.0 and dirty flashing OB4 today.
UPDATE!!!
I got it working, and how I fixed it was a total PITA, but it works and I'm on OOS OB4.
Here's what I did:
1. Download the first available nougat OOS and flash it. Factory wipe from stock recovery. Once booted, install android auto and 3rd party apps. Test if it works, if so...
2. Sign in google account and update to 5.0.4 via OOS updater
3. Once rebooted into 5.0.4, take OB4 and stick it onto root, and reboot to recovery again
4. I dirty flashed OB4 over 5.0.4 and it seems to work fine!
I haven't tested this in my car yet, I will be on a long drive tomorrow and update results.
Waze on android auto
Waze is working parallel to google Maps without any problems. When you open navigate both programs are shown.
Damn I just noticed it. My maps work but I tried to open Google play music and got the same error.
That was the one thing that consistently worked for me. Which rom are you on?

Android Auto - Something went wrong. Google play services doesn't seem to be working

I have had a problem loading Android Auto (AA) on my LG G4. I have rooted with Steadfaster's UsU and installed his Lineage 15.1 rom, opengapps nano (Sept 30) and the phone is working great. Prior to rooting the phone AA worked fine with MM 6.0. After rooting the phone, when I open the AA app on the phone I get the error "Something went wrong. Google play services doesn't seem to be working right now". The error comes up immediately and then the app closes. I tried plugged into in the car as well (Pioneer AVIC 4200 deck), but the error stops the phone when opened.
I have been through Google's forums and there have been lots of posts about this error and no real solutions for me posted. I have also tried other "fixes" I have come across, including this one - https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help/delete-disable-downgrade-prevent-update-t3091832/. This method involves:
1. Download and install System App Remover from the Google Play Store.
2. Put your device in Airplane Mode in order to prevent auto upgrade of GPS.
3. Open System App Remover and select "System App" from the menu.
4. Find Google Play Services in the list. It should be marked "Should keep", which is a suggestion from the publisher. Select it and press "Uninstall". Ignore completion message.
5. Using Settings/Apps, verify that Google Play Services has reverted to the factory-supplied version. It should be <7. "Force Stop", "Uninstall Updates", and "Disable" buttons should no longer be grayed out.
7. Reboot device and toggle Airplane Mode off.
I followed these steps, but unfortunately stock seems to be the version that came with opengapps which is current.
I'm out of ideas with this problem and need some help. AA is a great app for me and really handy on long trips. I would like to get it running if at all possible.
Appreciate any help you can provide.

I have had a problem loading Android Auto (AA) on my LG G4. I have rooted with Steadfaster's UsU and installed his Lineage 15.1 rom, opengapps nano (Sept 30) and the phone is working great. Prior to rooting the phone AA worked fine with MM 6.0. After rooting the phone, when I open the AA app on the phone I get the error "Something went wrong. Google play services doesn't seem to be working right now". The error comes up immediately and then the app closes. I tried plugged into in the car as well (Pioneer AVIC 4200 deck), but the error stops the phone when opened.
I have been through Google's forums and there have been lots of posts about this error and no real solutions for me posted. I have also tried other "fixes" I have come across, including this one - https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help/delete-disable-downgrade-prevent-update-t3091832/. This method involves:
1. Download and install System App Remover from the Google Play Store.
2. Put your device in Airplane Mode in order to prevent auto upgrade of GPS.
3. Open System App Remover and select "System App" from the menu.
4. Find Google Play Services in the list. It should be marked "Should keep", which is a suggestion from the publisher. Select it and press "Uninstall". Ignore completion message.
5. Using Settings/Apps, verify that Google Play Services has reverted to the factory-supplied version. It should be <7. "Force Stop", "Uninstall Updates", and "Disable" buttons should no longer be grayed out.

Even when it sounds obvious but have you installed AA clean so without restoring data from a backup? Do you have tried to completely factory reset the phone? Do you have tried to format data in TWRP? Obviously you should have a backup of your internal storage when doing so .
You should also catch a logcat when starting the app

After rooting with UsU I followed sdembiske's recommendations for installing Lineage. This included a factory reset and formatting data with TWRP. I then installed Lineage 15.1 UsU and opengapps nano and then installed the apps I wanted. AA went on clean without restoring data. I will capture a logcat and post.
Thanks

My first attempt at a logcat. I searched in Notepad++ and used carservice as the keyword. Some errors were shown. I don't know how to interpret them and would appreciate your help

I just searched a bit regarding the errors of your logcat and found this:
https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/nexus/-N8jJo7A8nI
maybe something there helps you out.
It seems definitively an issue with google play app/updates..
btw: I have just installed AA here without an issue, running LOS 15.1 on my h815..

I have been through that forum and tried the last post just now - uninstall updates, clear cache, open AA - and I immediately get the error.
I'm thinking about doing a Titanium backup on apps and data (minus AA) then wipe, reinstall LOS 15.2, TWRP, Lineage SU, do a reboot, reinstall AA first and if it works then run Titanium restore for apps and data.
Make sense?

Sounds like a plan
Nevertheless I would to a titanium backup of play and AA BEFORE restoring as well..

Well I wiped cache, Dalvik, system and then formatted data, installed the 15.1 UsU rom, then installed Gapps, rebooted to recovery and installed the Lineage addonsu. I rebooted, went through setup and the first thing I did was open the Playstore install Android Auto and run it - immediate error again. Also the addonsu did not root the phone. And to top it all I did not disable the pin code.
Back to the drawing board.

I have been beating the bushes and looking for a solution. None so far. You mention AA worked on your phone. Are you running LOS 15.1 and if no, which rom? Also re your install can you look in apps and notifications and see if the more options * is shown on the AA app. I have it, but when I select it nothing happens. My old Nexus 5 the * works and Android Auto opens no problem. LOS 7.1.2.
Thanks

I run LOS 15.1 build 20181002 and at the time of installing that ROM version I used this opengapps version: open_gapps-arm64-8.1-nano-20180705.zip (download)
AA works here yes. I run it now for several days, daily, no issues here.
My version of AA is 3.7.584044 (attached: View attachment com.google.android.projection.gearhead-ffadc269cc39417e152ffcdd22183045.apk)
Not sure what you mean by "the more options *" but I've attached 2 screenshots of the app settings which may show what you meant.. if not show a pic of that setting.
oh you may meant the gear symbol at the top right? Here it opens fine but as that opens google stuff it makes sense that it fails on yours

Isn't mine basically the same as yours, other than H815? That gear icon will not open up the more options page. On my Nexus 5 with LOS 7.1.2 it opens a page with Settings for AA ie: Limit wifi, Connected cars, phone screen settings, etc.
If not the same maybe I should run your version of LOS.

I've mentioned and linked the opengapps version, attached the AA version and mentioned the exact build for a reason yes.
The idea was that you try the exact same setup.
btw: which model do you have?

H812 on the UsU Oreo build H812 build.
So I can copy what you have, other than I'm using the H812 versus the H815 LOS rom.
Thanks steadfasterX
steadfasterX, is it necessary that I format the data when I reload this rom. Takes a long time to restore everything.

Use my latest preview version of TWRP then you can backup your data AND internal storage . you can first try without format. if you still have issues try to format it and if it doesn't fix anything you can restore by TWRP but ensure that you use build 144 or higher

OK, thanks again. Will give it a go. I have your latest TWRP, 144_g4_0.
On the positive side after all kinds of failed troubleshooting my G4 has all of a sudden decided to connect with my PC. It shows as H812 in Explorer and in Device Manager as Lemobile Android Device with Android Composite ADB Device driver. A lot easier than using Cloud.

Gave it a go, but as soon as I tapped on AA the error came up. I did format data to start from clean and used the older versions of AA and Google Play.
Update - I reinstalled all my apps via Titanium Pro (not AA) and set things up. I decided to tryy AA one more time before removing it and bingo it opened. Kinda waking on broken glass here and unsure whether or not the app will continue to function. Hooefully this fixed things.
Thanks again steadfasterX.

Netflix does not run on rooted global rom 10.3.5

Hello all,
I have received recently an (ebay bought) Mi Max 3 4/64.
The phone is the China version and came with a global rom.
The phone immediately at first launch updated itself to miui global 10.3.5
I rooted it via TWRP (ignoring the password prompt) using the Magix zip and all seems to be fine. (I did not install TWRP itself, just used it to flash the zip)
However I tried to use now netflix and it does not work.
First the app was not showed in the app store: I found the apk at a different source.
But when launching the APK it now consistently crashes.
I installed the "liboemcrypto" plugin in magisk - but that made no difference...
What can I try now?
Thank you for any pointers

Thank you, will try. My issue is not about getting the netflix.apk. That is easy to find.
But the app crashes 100% of the time on boot. That is my real issue. Lets see if the one you suggest works better
Heres the app

I do not get that far. I never get the "open" to show as it does not install.
I enabled root - and all I get is install failed. I have removed any old versions too...

Hi, if you don't mind me asking. I have the lastest version also. 10.5. What was your exact steps to root your phone. I'm trouble rooting this phone. Thank you

It was actually quite easy (I assume your phone is unlocked, right?)
You need to download the ADB tools to your pc
Get TWRP for Mi Max 3
Copy Magisk ZIP to your Mi Max (most recent version)
Reboot Mi Max in Fastboot mode
Boot TWRP via fastboot on the phone (no need to install)
Disregard the password comment
Flash the Magisk Zip via TWRP
Reboot - you are rooted
If you need more details feel free to PM me.
PS: You may need to find a slow PC as some people (including me) have issues when using a current, faster PC with USB 3
