I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
Installation steps
- Make sure you have twrp 3.x installed
- Make sure your phone is charged to at least 60%
- Download the ROM, and transfer to your phone / external SD card if you have encryption active
- Make sure OEM Unlock is on in developer settings
- Boot the phone into TWRP
- Do a FULL wipe: Dalvik Cache, Cache, Data, System
- Flash rom and boot (first boot may take 15-20 min)
- If you face any lags/hangs at first boot, reboot 2-3 times and it will be fixed
- If you want you can flash Magisc 17.3 to root your phone
Press thanks if you like the rom

in my case, after i delete even only one app (with file manager romtoolbox) then restart. all become messed up.. message FC, romtoolbox file manager unable to copy/delete anymore, magisk become FC when try to download madule. i have to restore my backup up to fix this.
i just curious if this just happen to me or not. try delete any app that you consider bloatware, then restart and see if u have the same symptoms
definitely i need (we need) custom kernel with removed all protections (RMM, knox related, dm verity etc.) if we want fully modded stock rom..

for your information..unstable or crash of my phone its not because i deleted some app and their dependencies.. even replacing god damn xml file triggering that weird thing :silly:

Hey Guys, I want to ask whats the reason for bootloops. I'm sick of them, I get them too often now.
I change themes sometimes, and suddenly all I'm left is bootloop. I change screen-lock type and again bootloops.
What my idea is, One can go into CWM recovery, mount the system and push/over-write some files through ADB & restore bootloop-free OS. What I don't know is list of files which can be reason for these bootloops.

No. I'm talking in general. I also had these problems with other ROMs. Lucky I always had CWM Backup ready to restore them. But no-one is free enough to take CWM backup daily. So it's better to have solution of it I think.

Then its not a ROM problem is it?!
Make a backup
Try flashing newer official samsung firmware and then restore backup.
Doing this will update modem and some suff in the phone that a ROM can't
The only way is running on the bootloop adb logcat and look on the log what crashes the system. For my I made a SMS backup every day, and CWM backup one in the week and deleted the old backups.
every file in system partition can cause bootloop. Even a single line in build.prop can cause bootloop.

But I have never changed modem and other kernel. I'm not on custom kernel either. All I have done till date is, rooted my SGA and flashed custom ROMs. That's it. So I don't think modem or other stuffs might be the problem here.

Guys, cut to the chase already! Let's consider the normal theme "System" or "Androidian". & Then go to the most changes applying them "UOT Kitchen".
No one, "actually" know or caring to share?
Anyway, let me tell you what happened just now, I changed "LockScreen Wallpaper" from CyanogenMod Settings and boooom! Bootloop. Restoring Nandroid back up now.
Is there anyway to know which files are being changed when I did that?
Hello all devs, I have a suggestion that I think many people that cant unlock the bootloader will think very nice.
The sugestion is that the devs if they time to make a version like JJs hybrid rom for locked bootloaders.
I have also tried the Miui rom, and I removed the format script and boot.img and it booted fine without any major problems.
So my sugestion is that the devs makes their roms for stockkernel for people with locked bootloader, and makes a deletion script that removes all the files from the old rom.
Devs, what do you think about my idea?
Thats not possible to remove format script...
If you dont format system partition, it will be overloaded with applications and frameworks from Old and New ROM... the two ROM appz might not share the same sign keys... that would result in Bootloop or Series of FCs on install...

Here are a solution that I think maybe works:
First create a homemade format script that removes all the stuff on partiation, but it doesnt run the format options, it just deltes everything manually from recovery.
And then just remove the format script from the roms zipfile and remove the boot.img too.
Then just resign the zip file with sign by enyblock.
Thats should work, maybe somebody can try it?

thats practically not possible either...
MIUI, CM9 have different appz and framework...
applications aside, who has enough time to write a delete script for more than a thousand lib and other system files?..
I am trying to find out the files that don't load on statup after installing a flashable zip on Locked bootloaders... that is better way of finding a solution..

But isnt there a way to just remove all folders using recursive deletion, isnt that the easiest way to make a deletion script?
And then just remove the format script and boot.img.
With my my solution ive managed to run the miui based on offcial semc ics on my Xperia Ray it worked fine.

This is why most custom ROMs require custom kernel
Needs unlocked bootloader
(actually hybrom does not contain a boot image.Thus, when you install hybrom you don't mess with your boot image at all.BUT recovery from nAa is installed in /system and while system is formated during the installation of hybrom,recovery messes with it self.That's why unlocked bootloader and a custom kernel with recovery is necessary for now to install hybrom)

It means, that if Recovery is installed in /system folder, and you want to install custom ROM, which (mostly) replaces the system folder, Recovery would be removed and would end up in complete stop with bootloop.
If Recovery is installed in the kernel, then the whole /system partition can be removed without affecting the Recovery at all.
Also, stock kernels have quite low functionality, that's why it is not widely used.

Loading the ROM is not the problem, it is the functionality.
Modifying stock kernel can be done, but if you want to make it work, you have to unlock bootloader to install it also.

All those things are loaded into the phone. The Rom has nothing to due with the firmware. If there are any apk files effecting your system I would suggest reinstalling the rom you are currently running. If that doesn't work do a clean install and wipe.
Make sure you list what phone you have are you S - Off/Rooted what Rom are you using custom recovery etc when you need help.
I hope you get your error fixed.
the profile and prl updates apks are (i think) htcOMADM_SPCS.apk, HtcOMASM_TOOLS.apk and there is a 3rd i cannot remember, as far as the software updater apk..i think it is just called updater.apk....
the apk's are built into the rom not the phone...so worst case just reinstall your rom

Sorry been busy so I haven't been able to try it yet.
As for recoveries I've tried both TWRP and Philz touch and they both work ok as far as creating backups, wiping, and installing roms. However both seem to have significant issues as far as restoring a stock nandroid backup. As far as I can tell it's an issue with permissions, it's impossible to move/edit/delete/copy etc. files in a file explorer such as ES, after a nandroid restore. However if you're only looking to be able to flash new roms, either recovery should work OK. Also I can tell you that I was able to successfully install both recoveries' .img file using the flashify app in the play store. I was also able to install the Philz .zip file while in TWRP. Hope that helps

Added ver.4 : zipalign and 4-way reboot menu
Many of you know how to fix this issue.
I created a simple zip to do it faster. The TWRP file manager can be very useful but it's not as confortable as a file manager like MiXplorer, Amaze, Solid...
From now on, instead of going to the TWRP file manager to remove the files one by one, just flash one of these zips and reboot.
- To remove the 5 files > DOWNLOAD LINK
- As suggested, here is another flashable zip to only remove the LOCKSETTINGS files > DOWNLOAD LINK
- Final version, to only remove locksettings.db => DOWNLOAD LINK (recommended)
Here are below the list of files it removes:
Code:
gatekeeper.password.key
gatekeeper.pattern.key
locksettings.db
locksettings.db-shm
locksettings.db-wal
Does this only apply to PIN errors?
I recentrly restored a backup and it didn't recognize my password. I gave up and deleted everything.

The zip only removes the lockscreen protection where you have to enter your PIN/patter/password to reach your homescreen.
It doesn't apply to the boot protection while you are encrypted.
Thanks for this flashable zip,
I've got the same files on my NEXUS 6P , it should work... :good:

I made the same for another device some time ago..

this is only used once - when you restore your TWRP backup and lockscreen security fails to log you in
Does my phone have to be rooted and have twrp to use this? If not, how do i flash the zip file?

That's a convenient solution for a specific issue, I suggest to read the OP, if you don't have TWRP you cannot be locked out due to restoring a backup by TWRP in first place, it only applies to TWRP users in a certain usage scenario... It's flashed from recovery, root has nothing to do with this...

Is it applicable to op3?

Hey!
I'm an HTC U11+ user and this doesn't work for me, im facing the same issue either i restock via OTA or TWRP backup, any thing you consider sharing that could help me?
1 thing though, i manually flashed 1.24.401.2 images, while my bootloader shows the actual version to be 1.24.401.12 .
Could this be in anyway be causing my problems?
If I do not set up any boot password/pattern etc but just a swipe on lockscreen then,
after restoring the back up and then flashing the given zips for five files immediately,
Will I be able to set up the PIN/Password/pattern on the restored ROM?
