Hi, I've encrypted my alpha ( 5.0.2 lollipop ), but i can't use fingerprint for unlock my device, only the alphanumeric password that i use for decrypt the phone. can someone use fingerprint for unlock his phone?
I think its made that way. So no fingerprint if you have encrypted phone.
Sent from my SM-G850F
I've read that the galaxy s5 and note 4 can use fingerprint after lollipop update, so i thought that the same thing would happen whit alpha.

Hi everybody. I've recently installed on my Xiaomi Mi A3 the last version of Pixel Experience. I'm really glad of this Android 10 rom, but I've spotted a very pesky bug with my fingerprint reader. I can't use it, because my phone let me only register the fingerprint but not unlock the phone with it. Also the Smart Lock function Reliable Device doesn't work and there's no trace of Face Unlock (neither the default one nor the Smart Lock one). I find very annoying not having the possibility of keeping the smartphone unlocked with Smart Lock or locked with "quick" unlocking methods. If you have the same problem or you know how to solve it, you're welcome.
P.S. I write from Italy so sorry for my English
Hey @prakaship78 's fingerprint runs smoothly in patch 01182020
If the developer shares it, you use it.
And I heard the February patch pixel Experience roms won't boot

So I have to use it and there's no solution? And also there's no update with February patch?
I have also another two problems. No one app can write, modify or delete anything on my SD. I already formatted it and then I re-copied my files into it, but there's no solution.
Last problem, wide lens in GCam. It works in no one of the version I tried.
Hi all,
I'm considering to get a Z5C, but I need VoLTE working. I know that VoLTE is working with the stock ROM, but how about Lineage OS or other custom ROMs? Does anyone have hands-on experience with that? Any suggestions much appreciated!
Cheers,
r.
VoLTE is definitely not working on any LineageOS ROM, no matter what version you are using.
Ok, thanks for this info. Here's two more questions:
1. You wrote "LineageOS" - do you know of any other Custom ROM where VoLTE is working?
2. How about VoWLAN aka Wifi Calling: Will it work with custom ROMs?
Thanks.
r.
1. No. My guessing is, that some IMS related stuff is missing. We (unofficial LineageOS devs) have tried it, but we failed. The normal telephony function has been compromised.
2. I don't think so (see above).
I'm sorry.
Ok - thanks for your efforts anyway!
VoLTE works mostly only with T-mobile firmware.... but you have to flash this firmware... stock z5c dont support this.... if you flash it "with your country local operator firmware"..... will VoLTE work...100% T- mobile speciallity....
You can flash it by yourself, but be sure you dont have phone with unlocked bootloader.... if you make it after, you loose IMEI and mobile is 4 parts only....
Thanks for that info and the warning! Did you try it yourself with LOS? I have already unlocked the boot loader to ...well, install LOS. But afaik it is possible to lock it again using flashtool. Is that what you did?
I have had many Z5 compacts.... first was with unlocked bootloader.... I did know nothing before.... so I have tried flash it..... not finished, error.... started phone, No IMEI at all.... only Wifi worked No Simcard read, so I used it 4 parts - crashed display.... and for study how to dissassamble all. It´s nice when you know how to dissassamble hole Z5 compact and reassamble new one
Since then I buy only Z5 compacts with factory locked bootloader, OEM locked, from normal users....VIRGIN phones they are perfect 2 flash.... also i have had one piece, there was Lineage os before to anroid 7.1.1 returned, opened bootloader... and it has non functional cameras and flash.... no hardware problem, it was because of unlocked bootloader and this Lineage OS. Somebody bought it from me to use it as a bike navigation
I have relocked the bootloader via Flashtool... but cameras were still kaput 4 ever.
Installing Lineage OS or unlocking bootloader can (or relocking bootloader after - I dont know) destroy cameras and flash lighter..... on 7.1.1 android. It will not destroy cameras on android 9. Fx sony XZ1 compacts..... but you will still loose some functions of cameras + codecs and so on.
If you do so, there is no way to fix it back....
Unlocking the bootloader no longer breaks the camera on Sony Xperia devices running Android Pie
Unlocking the bootloader of Sony Xperia devices running Android Pie no longer totally breaks the camera like before, but not every feature will work still.

THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH for getting and keeping this device going... IN SPITE OF Samsung's crap!!!
Now all we gotta do is get our Xposed tid bits in order... This is FANTASTIC!!!
Can I just say, before I even install this, how fantastically awesome it was to see jkruses profile photo when I checked the boards today! It's been since the s7 since I've had the pleasure. F-in A!
Thank you jrkruse, your work is appreciated

This will only wipe if you have encrypted data. This Can Only Be Used On U firmware

Only U or can U1 use this too?

If you are flashing U1 firmware you must use the force wipe. There is no way around this unless you want to repackage the AP file of the U1 firmware and remove the userdata.img thats in there.
This is probably a dumb question but after installation of the tar file does it force a reboot of the phone or does auto-reboot need to be checked in Odin?
Thanks

Mine forces a reboot and then boots to twrp twice. Life is good after that.

Thanks for the reply. I just bootloader unlocked my Note20 SM-N986U1. I currently have Android 10 installed and would like to stay there for awhile. Is the file USERDATA_AIO_N986_FORCE_WIPE_NO_BL.tar.md5 the one I should used to install TWRP/Root?
OP... I unlocked BL yesterday and did a fresh set-up with your USERDATA_AIO_N986_FORCE_WIPE.tar.md5 for my N20U1... SWEET having everything loaded for us all at once!!!
This morning, after setup and restoring files from Samsung SD (Smart Switch), I attempted to TWRP back-up but got an error each time and no back-up... Has anyone else here gotten errors with TWRP back-up after flash and setup???
Update: Looks like I can back-up Data and Super... Fine enough for right now I guess... I also have TWRP logs as well...
This is failing in ODIN with the following details:
<snip>
This is with the N986U1, and using the USERDATA_AIO_N986_FORCE_WIPE.tar file.
Scratch that. Apparently it was an issue with my USB port. I changed to a different port and was able to flash this. Thanks!

Just wanted to say thank you again and again. Just used your AIO for the first time. I used the first link with 3.0 bootloader for U1, and it worked perfect for flashing from 3.0 U1 XAA fw to an updated 3.0 fw for U TMB. Amazing work jrkruse

Then you need to pay to unlock bootloader.
Then come back here.
Hey everyone... I scored a t-mobile branded s6 tab (sm-t867u) that came into my hands running Android 11, build # RP1A.200720.012.T867USQS7CVB1, UI 3.1... from my understanding of samsung nomenclature this means it is already at a bootloader version of 7?
I see there actually is a vector to unlock bootloader on these devices these days, but it stops being available at version 4 I think? Is there any chance I'll be able to ever unlock this devices bootloader in the future or should I give up that hope now?
On a related side note it is desperately trying to update itself to Android 12 apparently, and not seeing any good way to stop that... I assume that will push me to an even higher bootloader version? If that's the case, I take it there isn't a way to stay on android 11 then? Tia..
Ok so I got a issue, I got a samsung phone, it has a optical fingerprint sensor and I am porting one ui firmware from another phone which would be S22, as you know this phone has a ultrasonic fingerprint, I managed to boot the OS already but the fingerprint would not register, I tried replacing librariers from my stock firmware to the S22 firmware but no luck, if anyone here knows how to fix please write a message in this thread.
