[Q] Reboot Button problem

OK, I'd appreciate some help here. I Just downloaded Zenmaster's Reboot button app. I probably made a mistake by going to ROM manager and its install from SD card option.
The install started out fine, but just stalled at installing update. Left it there for 30 minutes.
I did a battery pull and the phone went into recovery except it says at the bottom of the screen:
E: Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk01p1
(Invalid Arguement)
#MANUAL MODE#
The upper screen has the typical
reboot system now
Apply sdcard...
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
Nothing happens with either reboot system now or apply from sdcard
So I really would appreciate...what now.

Are you rooted? Do you have Clockwork Recovery installed?
Are you hitting the "Home" soft button key on the Reboot option? That's the "Enter" key for the stock recovery screen, not the Power button like it is for Clockwork.

Thanks for your response.
Yes I'm rooted and yes I have CWM.
This is embarrassing now, because I WAS NOT hitting the home button, which I should have known to do, but obviously forgot. Did that and I'm back up. Old Droid habits die hard I guess.
My apologies for using up bandwidth and thank you again.

That's okay, I believe I freaked out the first time I was in stock recovery as well not getting any response from the power button

Yeah, that's not gonna work. The app is a .apk file, which gets installed via adb or Root Manager/Astro. It's not a flashable zip.
It's also now available on the market .

Bonus. That is fantastic news.

Well naming the .zip to .apk worked and Reboot Button worked. Sort of. I think what happened here was no fault of the app, but something related to the relationship between my phone and voodoo. I had never seen any particular problem on my phone, but I just wanted a way to disable the thing as I was contemplating flashing jt's ROM.
Well the disabling of voodo lost root on my phone. I use Launcher Pro and that was gone too. So I tried reinstalling that and entered a force close loop from hell. After installing the LP, the phone regressed to the same opening screen it had when out of the box, different from the static wallpaper I had.
There is a thread on this here:
http://forum.androidcentral.com/fascinate-roms-hacks/38029-how-escape-force-close-loop-hell.html
I followed that and got back to the out of the box Fascinate state. Only part of my apps, and not all of the paid ones showed up in Market, even after an overnight wait. The significant missing one is Documents to Go.
There was 0.00 space left on internal memory, so I did a factory reset.
This would not be a big deal, BUT the phone will not root, so I can't use Titanium Backup to restore stuff. The Samsung Drivers are installed, the USB cable is the one that came with the phone, and the computer recognizes the device. However, Odin seems to think the device is not connected.
So, I'm not sure what is going on with this phone of mine. Again, I don't think it is the app.
Edit; All is back to normal

Change '"Menu" button to "Recents".

Hello guys,
I installed G2 Xposed module to change some things on my G2.
After the installation and first reboot my "recents" button (it was by default) changed to "menu" button.
Is there a way to change it back to "recents"? It really drives me crazy i can't find any solution.
My Rom has an option to change button combination but it always FCs (Since forever).

Reinstall xposed

flashed twrp on the naked phone and installed the backup from this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/help/oxygenos-4-5-1-backup-t3626167 (made a misstake and wiped system).
so device should be stock. no apps installed. real naked phone

I guess you have to wait for the original stock firmware straight from OnePlus and then make a clean flash. If it worked of out the box it should work after original firmware.

dont knowif it worked out of the box. powered on and flashed twrp. but will try a clean flash

Same issue here. Before restore the backup my home key worked very well.

Wait why do you guys erase system? Is it just a habit before installing custom roms. xD I do the same thing. I erase everything except for internal storage.

Well, at least we know that this isn't a hardware problem. We just have to wait for the full zip.

wiping data with the twrp backup solves the problem. home button working now

In my case the "gaming do not disturb" mode was on (I dont know how ... ) anyway if you have the same issue you can go to Settings->Advanced->Gaming Do Not Disturb and uncheck Lock Buttons.

Pie has started rolling out!

Posted this in the other Pie thread, but here is the OTA link for those left out from the fun: https://android.googleapis.com/pack.../e2152a2c966d6c0950ae58c5360bdf0d49f949a0.zip

Magisk works well. Im so happy

Where's the Recents button?

When will update start in Korea?

I just got this phone and I like it a lot but I am wondering does it get regular updates? Regular security patches? Thanks

How did you update and keep Magisk? Just OTA?

1.Magisk Manager → Uninstall → Restore Images). Do not reboot or you will have Magisk uninstalled.
2. Now Update the system and let it install completely. Do not press the reboot button.
3. Go to (Magisk Manager → Install → Install to Inactive Slot) and install Magisk.
4.Once Magisk installation is done, press the reboot button in Magisk Manager.

Thanks a bunch. I want to update it, but I am at work and have a PCI compliant laptop. I don't think I could transfer my TiBU files to my computer, or even run fastboot if I wanted to lol

Anyone else having issues with the single home button gestures not working fully?
It is on by default, and if you long swipe up or swipe up when recent apps are showing, you don't not get the app drawer. The whole point of this gesture is accessing your app drawer from anywhere...

Do I understand correctly that there is no need to lock the bootloader before performing the factory update (since it is not mentioned in your instructions)?

Don't know if you want to trust me, but yes. I updated mine to Android Pie using the OTA with an unlocked bootloader and did not re-lock it before I updated... worked fine.

Gone, by default, due to Pie's multi-gesture button. I've tried it out, and am really not a fan of the gesture control.
To disable it, and get the Overview button back:
1. Go into system settings, then go to System all the way at the bottom
2. Select Gestures
3. Select "Swipe up on Home button" and disable it
You'll get back the classic three-button layout. The icons are now filled in, instead of just outlines.
Overview and enabling multi-window is so much worse than it was in Oreo and earlier... And moving the clock to the left corner was stupid (unless you have a phone with a screen notch, I guess). Stop copying Apple, Google...

No need to lock your bootloader for OTA. Just follow the posted instructions and you will be fine. I can confirm that the method works.

Will this work without root and a locked bootloader

no gestures after update

I have IN2023 latest OTA oxygen OS 11.0.1.1.INI11BA.
After rooting on magisk canary (as well as beta) I can neither enable gestures nor hide the Navbar (in system buttons and gestures). (see picture)
Hold powerbutton to open the menu also doesn't work (it simple turns the power off, changing to google assistant does work)
How to solve this, did I do something wrong or is it a bug?

What modules have you got installed??
I noticed my center clock mod broke gestures too.
Also if you have frozen or uninstalled the OnePlus launcher this too breaks gestures.
Chances are it's a mod that broke it or freezing the OOS launcher..
But then again it's only just came out so who knows what's going on at the moment

Thanks for the reply. The centre clock mod works fine. I use nova launcher and indeed freezing the OOS launcher when switching to it
It all happens before any mod is installed.
Your answer sugests there's a bug in Magisk comparing to the latest OTA

In regards to the centre clock mod no it's due to the apks used not being the most up to date.
In regards to your issue, the only way to find out what it is is to remove modules then try again. If it goes away then install one at a time, obviously unfreeze the OOS launcher too

Maybe you've been to quick: I wrote it happens before any mod is set. It doesn't happen without root. (and everything else is the same)
As long as I'm the only one I have to start from scratch, otherwise I'll wait till a solution is found. (I guess from John Wu)

Oh really??
So you're not running any modules, and no other mods or changes?
Then youre alone with this problem..
It's possible that some modules were left behind before the update. Beyond that I'm not sure buddy, mines working fine unless I make the aforementioned changes.

Bit of a long shot but try this
1. Connect your phone to your computer.
2. Reboot the phone, then during the boot animation have this command ready and run via ADB.
adb wait-for-device shell magisk --remove-modules
3. Reboot, cycle the gestures to nav bar and see if it works.
That'll eliminate any left over modules, just incase, even if they're disabled from magisk they can still be left behind, have seen this a few times.
