Need help, Call connect vibration on stock - Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers

Hi guys,
Tried several pie custom roms in the last 2-3 months however now I am back to stock i.e. "potter-twrp-flashable-OPS28.85-17-2-aroma" I am rooted with latest magisk also have twrp. Viper4androidFX is working excellent.
On stock 8.1, I am facing below major issues:-
1) there is no vibration on call connect/disconnect, call waiting. (I have root but how to enable?!)
2) I am in the process of "enabling wireless display" through build.prop editing.
3) the volte icon on status bar is taking up imp space, tried system ui tuner but there is no option to simply disable/remove it.
Have some more issues but those are minor I can work with them because stock has excellent battery and stability also no "Force Close" $hit.
Edit: I have successfully edited build.prop and enabled wireless display, it works even after reboots.

2 problems I have

First of all I would like to state that I am running echo-rom, I would like to have posted in there but the thread is closed.
My first problem is that the expandable volume menu does not work, this happened to me before with other roms (all on TW) but I couldn't be bothered until now. Whenever I click the gear icon which should expand, it doesn't work. It works before (until I do something?). Anyway I flashed the rom yesterday and didn't bother configuring/customizing it until today. I will try to describe anything I did until the point I noticed it broke again.
I enabled xposed framework, with the modules: wanam xposed, enable battery stats for kitkat, gravitybox, app-settings and xposed torch.
I tweaked some stuff in wanam xposed and in the echo customization center.
Anyway I don't really know what caused it, if no one knows why I will try to pay attention next time when it happens.
The second problem is that whenever I try to swipe down to open my notification bar it doesn't want to work half the time. On my home screen the statusbar turns black (instead of transparent), so there is some sort of registration of touch? I proceed to let go of my finger and and then try again. I also thought that I could have misplaced my finger but I don't know why the statusbar would turn black then.
If anyone knows or has encountered this problem before please share,
much appreciated.
I dunno know but i tried exposed once with a slimrom and it messed my phone up really bad upto the point everything was force crashing. To me i think exposed is your problem. Try wiping data, cache, dalvik, and format system and boot with cwm recovery then flash official firmware for you phone. DO NOT USE 4.3 FIRMWARE IF YOUR ON A 4.4 ROM!! Look for 4.4 rom instead. Sammobile good site but need registraion and slow download for free users (about 1hour) after that try instakking. Your fav rom without xposed. Im 80% sure it will work
So I fixed it, I disabled both gravitybox and wanam xposed and after the reboot volume expand worked again, then I enabled wanam xposed again and it still worked. Either way gravitybox caused it, or it was caused by a conflict between the two.
Also the statusbar problem, my rom has an option where you double-tap the battery icon to change the style of it, I noticed by trying to swipe down from the battery icon it doesnt work. So there you have it. Problem solved
The reason is really simple. You don't read before you install the modules.
You can't use Gravitybox on a TW based rom. It's states that in the description. Gravitybox is for aosp only!
Same applies for the post from 189cutter. Wanam Xposed is only for TW based roms. Slimrom is clearly no TW based rom.
So if you want to use the modules, read if they are for your rom. Also make sure that there is no overlapping in functions, because that could cause strange problems as well.
Point taken but im never ever ever gonna use xpose or such things like it lol now im using cm m9 and its perfect lol

Great ROM
Hey guys, new to the forum. The best ROM I tried so far, took a while to get used to the many features that this rom offers, but is fast and stable, never had any problems with it. Though you need some basic experience to customize you phone using Phoenix rom, you'll end up with a device more efficient and great to use. I'd like to ask you one thing about the Ultra power saving feature (by the way is a great feature, it makes the phone battery in standby extremely efficient), is there any possibility to schedule this feature for example at night? It would be great to set it automatically between custom hours. I was impressed about how low consumption the phone has with this feature on. In my case during sleep, after 8-9 hours the battery percentage remained the same. Thanks and keep up the good work !

Not being able to check/uncheck "Restricted Background Data"
Folks,
I've searched several threads for this one and could not find the answer, so I hope someone can help. I've got the Phoenix ROM - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2349584 and it works great! The only issue I am facing since I got the ROM is that I do not receive notifications regularly when using data. I only get them once in a while. As soon as I switch to Wi-Fi though, I am flooded with messages. I have checked and wanted to make sure that background data was not restricted, but when I got there I realized this option was not clickable. It's there but I don't seem to have a choice. Is there a way I can get this one active or is there a way I can fix the issue? Anyone faced same issue?
Flashlight issue
Hi there,
Just installed PhoeniX 10, it's just awesome! Big thanks to tamirda
Regarding the flashlight issue mentioned by several users, I think I have it too. It has something to do with turning the flashlight on from the power menu. Steps to reproduce:
1. Open power menu and turn on Flashlight
2. Open notification toggles. Bug: flashlight toggle is off even though flashlight is still on
3. Turn on flashlight from toggle (now flashlight is still on and the toggle is on too)
4. Turn off flashlight from toggle. Bug: toggle is off but flashlight is still on (it can only be turned off from power menu)
The torchlight app behaves the same as flashlight toggle when flashlight has been turned on from power menu
Funny stuff to try: turn on flashlight from toggle and then turn it on from power menu. The flashlight intensity diminishes! Turn off the flashlight from power menu and it's still on, but back to high intensity. Turn it off from toggle first instead of power menu and the flashlight remains the power menu one.
It seems like the flashlight from toggle/torchlight app and the flashlight from power menu are 2 different things. And that the power menu one has precedence over the toggle/torchlight app one.
I hope this helps! I'm a first timer with this rom so I hope I'm not saying complete crap
I have a SPH-720 on Sprint and would love to get a couple of things fixed on my phone with this ROM. I read the first 300+ posts, then read the last 10 pages of posts and I don't see anyone else having this issue. So I wondered if someone here could help. Here is what I have done so far
1. Installed v10 ROM
2. No 3G or LTE data, WIFI worked fine
3. Flash stock NG2 KERNEL for Sprint SPH-720
4. Lost ROOT somehow in the process installing new kernel
5. Tried to flash SuperSu.zip file to get ROOT back no go, tried Towel Root method but said it was an unsupport device
6. Couldn't find out where to enter in APN settins. I went inside the Settings/Mobile Networks but there wasn't an APN setting, so I installed a third party app called Change APN
7. Gained carrier data 3g & LTE after entering APN settings for Sprint
8. The only other issue I have found is I can't send text messages but I can recieve them just fine
I am wondering first how to get root back, I flashed the SuperSu.zip file in TWRP but I don't have root after reboot. I thought about flashing the v10 ROM zip again but then I would have to put the stock kernel and then fix APN settings again.
The other issue I have is sending text messages. I have tried other SMS apps and none can send, only receive. Same with Google Hangouts, I can receive but not send.
Is there something I am missing? I am not a experience ROM builder, but I have customized my phones for years. I am interested in trying to get a ROM for one carrier to work on Sprint, and I have a bit to learn still. Besides these two issues the ROM is awesome and for me it actually is worth it to stay on it even with these issues.
I am open to trying anything, even erasing everything and trying something new.
I cannot install V10
Hi,
I have V9.4 on my Samsung S4, I have downloaded new version V10. When I am trying to install it, everything is ok, I choose what I want to install but there is a problem in last point of installation. When I push INSTALL, after just ONE second it is done and there is written than V10 was installed and phone ask me to reboot. But offcourse It is not installed and everything is same as before installation.
Please help. Thank you
First of all congratulations, great rom !
Bugs: in the initial configuration dropbox crash
Normal power saving bug: settings app crash when power saving enabled/disabled
Been using the Rom for almost a week and so far the experience is great the performance of the phone even with touch wiz is superb the battery life is also better. Would just like to post this short feedback and show my thanks to tamirda for the great rom.
I just have one issue with the car mode always poping up I might have disabled it incorrectly still trying to check on it.
stuck in samsung logo
im coming from GE 45. i used CWM and philz recovery but im stuck in samsung logo and not going anywhere. i thought it was an aroma issue and tried to install the ROM again without wipe but same thing happens.. any help will be greatly appreciated. thanks in advance!

Issues with gravity box and keyboard and possible restarts

I have three separate issues:
1st issue ->
Installed gravity box on the HTC10 unlocked grey, it was first flash with the vzw radios with s-off and root/su. then later it was flashed with the RUU and maintained s-off along with root/su. I installed xposed framework and xposed installer successfully. Then i installed gravity box.
The problem is with the status bar on the home screen of nova launcher. it doesnt show anything(i.e. blank) but i can still access it by pulling it down, however on other screens it is visible and working.
2nd issue ->
There seems to be random restarts because i have to use my pin randomly to unlock the device.
3rd issue ->
When i switch to another installed keyboard the touchpal sense keyboard resets itself as the default keyboard. Sometimes this is immediate and sometimes it is randomly within a minute or while i am typing/texting.
Phone setup:
HTC10 unlocked carbon grey
S-off
Rooted
vzw radios were flashed first

Peculiar Issue with Bluetooth + Other Issues

I searched around and couldn't find anyone with a similar issue.
I'm running the most recent Bliss build on my G900T Tmobile S5 using the stock kernel. I've tried (and love) Boeffla's klte kernel for CM13 on both Bliss and stock CM13 (as per his recommendation). On both builds, I encounter the same issues after flashing Boeffla kernel, and I was just wondering if anyone could offer some advice. Both test flashes are completely clean. I've tried flashing the kernel with and without gApps on both ROMs.
When I flash the kernel, I lose all of my pull-down toggles (Wifi, Bluetooth, location, etc), as well at the "gear" icon in the status bar. Additionally, no incoming notifications are displayed in the notification bar from any app, although the notification sound still fires off. I dug through the settings and the options to restore them have disappeared as well.
I also lose Bluetooth functionality and root. I tried to grab a log file to see what was happening, but the Bluetooth Share FC's would not let me do anything in the ROM after a few minutes of being powered on. Bluetooth will work fine for about 30 seconds, then start producing errors from the Bluetooth Share apk. Eventually the seetings toggle itself freezes and only restarting the phone "fixes" it. I tried re-installing root with many different apps (Chainfire's, SuperSU, etc), but to no avail.
For now, I'm back on Bliss with the stock kernel, running smoothly.
If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know! Boeffla Kernel is excellent, and I really miss intellidemand >.>
Thanks!
The Bluetooth issue is from the upstream cm13 code base it came about around 06/06 on the nightlies there are posts scattered throughout all of the builds based on cm13. So far haven't heard of a fix.

Need help getting LineageOS to be stable (15.1 UNOFFICIAL, hltevzw, TWRP 3.3.0)

I have an SM-N900V (Note 3, Verizon variant, hltevzw).
Detailed timeline:
- I flashed it back to firmware OB6 using Odin 3.09.
- I rooted it using ArabicToolApp.
- I used this tool to unlock the bootloader
- I installed a build of LineageOS 14.1 for hlte
- It didn't recognize the SIM so I did a dirty flash of this build of LineageOS 15.1 for hltetmo on top (hltetmo actually has different hardware than hlte, and the correct one for SM-N900V)
- Messed around with the APNs until it recognized and connected to Verizon's network. I DO have functioning SMS and LTE data, but I have not tested phone calls yet
- Messed around some with SuperSU in system- and systemless-mode. Bricked my device more times than I could count, then unbricked over and over using SuperSU's impeccable installer. Messed around with this quite a bit
- Also messed around with Xposed some. The OS is too unstable to run Xposed Installer correctly, so I uninstalled it
- Removed SuperSU, installed Magisk. Phone now passes SafetyNet
So, my phone now runs 8.1 and a Lineage build from 9 days ago. Cool. But, if I was satisfied I wouldn't be making this post. There are multiple instances of the same kind of "app freeze" - App screen freezes, sometimes it'll go completely black. Interactivity doesn't work, obviously, the app is completely frozen. Hold Back to kill doesn't work (Application Killed toast shows, but nothing happens). ANR (when it comes up) Close doesn't work. Home button works and brings me away from the app, but it's still there. Swipe away in Overview doesn't actually kill the app. Even in App Info, Force Stop doesn't work. The app is forever frozen. Tapping the icon from the launcher no longer does anything, it doesn't even bring up the app. The app is permanently crashed and inaccessible until a reboot.
Issues:
- Sometimes when booting the phone will not recognize the SIM until a reboot. As in, "No SIM" message and everything
- Sometimes it will get stuck at boot, I have foxy-boot installed, so I can see the logs. I don't remember what it was all about, if it comes up again I'll update the post
- Google Chrome sometimes crashes when trying to download a file. I've gotten my phone to self-host before, but this issue always seems to come back, and when it does Google Chrome ALWAYS crashes when trying to download a file. App Freeze
- Netflix installs and logs in but freezes at the "can't connect to service (-9)" message. App Freeze
- Certain apps like NativeScript Playground get stuck at the splash screen. App Freeze
- Xposed Installer did this when opening the Settings, whether Xposed was installed or not. App Freeze
- F-Droid also sometimes crashes, although it's somewhat arbitrary, I can't reproduce it reliably. App Freeze
I have tried reflashing the ROM, flashing Xposed uninstaller, reinstalling Magisk, none of it seems to work. I have TWRP 3.3.0 so I can do pretty much anything that doesn't involve the SD card (the SD card is probably broken in hardware, it's so read-only that Android and TWRP both can't write to it at all, but they can both read the same half-broken filesystem).
I fear that this OS is just too unstable for the phone and there's nothing I can do. I sincerely hope this is not the case.
Try other ROMs or perform a clean installation.
Make sure you are on PL1 bootloader/modem.
Currently using Resurrection Remix v5.8.5 Nougat because it was the last Android version for this device with working Bluetooth calls but if you don't use that feature you could use their Pie version as well.
RR ROMs are solid and work extremely well.
Do a clean installation via TWRP if you go this route.

I did a clean installation of RR 6.0.0 (Android 8.1) and it works a lot better than LineageOS did, with even more configuration options. I really really hate Pie and its gesture-based gimmicks (Screw you Google for copying more of Apple's bad design decisions), so I assumed Oreo would be more stable, but the ROM I installed still has crashing apps. Google Chrome still won't download most things (I've gotten it to download before), trying to change the accent color crashes the 'LineageOS Settings' app, and F-Droid is seriously messed up, but most other things are stable, including the Verizon network which required no pesky APN setup.
I'm on the OB6 bootloader/modem, is that a problem? I doubt that would be an issue, but I can always back up and reflash via Odin. The cool thing is that I installed a patch to TWRP which backs up /data/media along with everything else, after installing the custom ROM. So, really, I can do anything and be perfectly fine. There's, AFAIK, no way to ruin the phone unless something exploits the eMMC brick bug.
If there's another ROM you'd recommend me install, I'd be happy to try it out. I would really like to have a stable OS on here, where Chrome will work and download files. I'd also love Camera2 API since the phone has the chip for it (Snapdragon 800), but none of the ROMs I have support it and there's been no discussion online other than some years-old threads with no answers. I know there have been some articles online listing Note 3 as a phone that'd support Camera2 API with a software update. Would updating the bootloader/modem do anything on that front?
I would upgrade to PL1 bootloader/modem for your device. This is what I have and have had 0 issues. I'd recommend you trying the Samsung Internet browser over Google Chrome; it's much better in my opinion.
You can find the modem here:
https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=160694
As far as ROMs are concerned you can either try the Nougat version of RR which is what I am currently using as my daily driver with no issues at all including Bluetooth calls:

See here to check whether or not your phone has the Camera2 API capabilities; if not use OpenCamera.

Excuse me but custom ROMs don't have "the Samsung Internet browser". Additionally the modem shouldn't cause app crashes (if it does, correct me please).
I might try the Nougat ROM. Bluetooth calls don't matter to me, but stability does. I just kinda really like Oreo and all its customization options but it may be too new for this old phone from 2013. It still works as a phone though, Messages and phone calls work fine, so I may just deal with it.
I use Open Camera, and I've tried multiple Camera2 API enablers. The phone has a Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 and the necessary links (in hardware, between the camera/other things) to support Camera2, but nobody seems to have tried it. Probably because the Verizon Note 3 is really locked down, and can only be rooted on a special version of the samsung ROM, and can only be bootloader-unlocked via the eMMC brick bug... There are Magisk modules for Camera2 on Exynos-based devices, but none for the Verizon Note 3 AFAIK.
I just found out that RR 7 officially supports `hltetmo`, but RR 6 doesn't. That's kinda sad, I hate Pie, but I might try it...
I've had the SEPL stuff before, that's the one that can't be rooted. I suppose I didn't consider upgrading again after I unlocked my bootloader. I'll try SEPL1 firmware again, but with a custom ROM...
You can install the Samsung browser from the Play Store. Again, highly recommended.
As far as SEPL1 just update the modem to it; that shouldn't cause any issues but it will ensure your SIM is recognized and data works with the latest ROMs. That is one requirement you will see listed on all of these ROMs.
Not sure which one you are trying to install but here are all the Resurrection Remix versions:
Nougat:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...-resurrection-remix-n-v5-8-3-vanilla-t3615227
Oreo:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/development/rom-resurrection-remix-n-6-0-0-t3748689
Pie:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/development/rom-resurrectionremix-v7-0-0-t3894244
If you don't care about Bluetooth audio during calls then you can safely use Oreo and Pie options.

Yeah but, data and calling worked fine on the LineageOS and RR roms, so there's no reason to update the modem.
Besides, I flashed SEPL1 6 times using Odin (multiple times by flashing, rebooting directly into download mode and flashing it once more) and it doesn't want to update. Still on OB6. On the latest (official Pie) RR rom, data worked on first boot but doesn't work anymore (I'm going to mess around with the data settings until it works), but I have no reason to believe that my phone needs a modem update to function.
I did, many times, make calls to various phone numbers and they all worked flawlessly. SEPL1 is therefore not needed if that's all it does.
And I do know about all the Resurrection Remix versions: One is Nougat from their archive, one is the Oreo version I had installed just yesterday before flashing Pie, and the other one is Pie which is now officially supported.
I am currently working on getting RR7 to work, it's only crashed a few times, and I don't even remember what those times were (I think it was using the Back button in Overview/Recents at the same time as the Overview button?)
When updating modem via Odin you have to pull the battery and don't let it reboot the phone for it to stick (disable that option in Odin) and flash it again and then reboot. If you look at the ROM threads for anything newer than Android v5 they all recommend updating to the latest bootloader & modem for your device which in this case is PL1. This can be to prevent crashes/no signal /no SIM, etc...
Are you dirty flashing these ROMs? I have never experienced any crashes with any of the RRs on my phone but I always do a clean install and make sure to also delete the "Android" folder on my SD Card via TWRP after doing the "Advanced" wipe and deleting everything listed there except for the External SD Card.

"pull the battery and don't let it reboot the phone for it to stick (disable that option in Odin) and flash it again and then reboot"
So...
- Reboot phone into Download mode
- Pull battery while in Download mode
- Flash thingy
- Reboot back into Download mode
- Flash thingy again
? That will be very difficult to do with my dodgy charging cable that doesn't like being repositioned...
I do that without pulling the battery, but I could try it with.
I'm downloading the full SEPL stock image to flash. Once that's done, I'll flash it, reflash TWRP, restore my backup, and see if the baseband has updated.
And no, never dirty flashed the ROM. Always completely wiped data, system, cache and everything. I always backup first. I currently have 3 backups: Lineage OS (before installing RR), RR6 (Oreo), and RR7 (right now before that stock image I'm going to flash).
My external SD card is nonfunctional and read-only with some trash files from the previous phone.
I flashed the stock SEPL ROM. Baseband still didn't change. Restored from backup, SIM now works. Network is detected, SMS and data both work reliably on all reboots.
I will mention that I did brick my phone by using Odin to erase the eMMC, but I fixed that from TWRP, and now everything works flawlessly. There are still some app crashes, but most things are very stable. Camera2 API still nonexistent, which is sad because I got used to it on my old phone, but I shouldn't hope for it.
