Hey guys, CyanOS 13.1 OTA is pushed to the Swifts.
Changelog/features: https://cyngn.com/blog/cyanogen-os-13-1
Want to get it but rooted?
Wait for the correct zip to appear on this page (not there as of 12.08), then download it and install it using a recovery: https://cyngn.com/support
Discuss stuff below
COS 13.1 is on https://cyngn.com/support now.
Did anyone dirty flash from COS 13.0 ?

Works fine.
Flash 13.1, then superSU, then TWRP recovery, then reboot.
Reboot takes very long, be patient and have more than 50% battery.

I can't find 13.1 on cyngn.com/support. You guys have a direct link to the OTA that you can share?

There's no reason to share the OTA, as you can't install it, but here's the zip you're looking for: http://builds.cyngn.com/factory/crackling/cm-13.1-ZNH2KAS29G-crackling-signed-d4ad5010c5.zip
Does anyone install the OTA on an cryped phone. After my last update from 12.1 to 13.0 I can't decrypt my phone with my passphrase. So it would be cool to know it is working as I use my phone as a daily driver.

I don't know if it has any decryption problems, but dirty flashing lower level updates causes less issues (in this case, instead of 12.1 to 13.0 you are doing a 13.0 to 13.1 and instead of an android 5.1 to 6.0 you are doing a 6.0 to 6.0)
I compared cm-13.0 with cm-13.1 'fastboot' partitions and only following ones differ:
boot.img
emmc_appsboot.mbn
recovery.img
system.img
So I guess upgrade (even dirty) should be seamless.
I have no Wileyfox Swift but I maintain those of 2 friends.
I'll upgrade (and root + twrp) them without factory reset, just dalvik cache clean.
Updated (rooted) and slightly broke my Apps2SD in the fact that it is always and invariably asking me for a second soft reboot after initial startup (each taking a long time to complete) for it to be able to properly mount the second partition. This is never a problem that I have had to do prior to the update. Not a major fault but a nuisance nevertheless.

I remember having limitations in previous Android versions, but in this one, anything that isn't an uninstallable system app I can move to my SD card :laugh:
Did the update on my cryped not rooted phone. And the update went through without any problems. Only Twitter mod was not working but after clearing the data for this mod and doing a reboot it is working.

Go into the app info of the app you want on the SD Card -> Storage -> Storage used, CHANGE
It seems to work for all uninstallable apps for me now, I hope it does so for you as well

Many thanks. I was under the impression that this would only move the app (apk) itself but leave all the paraphernalia associated with it (data, obb... etc.) behind on internal memory. I will give it a try.
Currently on 13.1-ZNH2KAS29G, just got a prompt for another OTA update, cm-crakling-93b9ab5039-to-fdb0efc362-signed
Anyone know whats in this, and if the links on the CyanogenOS site have been updated to include this?
I can't currently install the OTA because I have TWRP recovery installed

It is definitely an update, but not available as full package. You can install it and reinstall the recovery (download via updater app and locate it, copy to separate directory, install 13.1 full, install ota, install twrp, install super SU)
But i have not tried it because i am on holiday without a pc...
Report back if that's working!

Do you know where exactly the updater app downloads it to?
Installed the new update yesterday. It looks like a security update. I think that this will fix the latest issues with the Qualcomm chip. But I don't know it for sure.

You flash using TWRP. The zip can be put on sdcard (internal or external).
The dalvik cache holds some sort of compiled java code. For minor upgrades one can perhaps leave it untouched. For major upgrades one typically wipes it. It does not hurt to wipe dalvik cache. After install, it is regenerated as part of the android upgrade.
Note that stock firware is probably unrooted so you may want to reinstall supersu update zip from twrp. Also, upgrade may or may not overwrite twrp with stock recovery so you may have to reflash twrp.
I have not done the upgrade myself (I will one day, I have no Swift, a friend has one).
Success

Yeah, I did. By the way, I disabled the permissions again, but everything's fine now.
Here is my stock based B207 rom, Simply Google. This is great for those of you who have a hard time getting the Google Apps to work and want some extra mods and features. You must have an unlocked bootloader and TWRP installed. This rom is tested on the M2-803L. Flashing it on other versions (801L, 802L) should work but you're flashing it at your own risk. All Google Apps you can download from the Play Store have been removed from the rom. I also heavily debloated it and removed a lot of Huawei apps. Please don't ask me to add anything in as I want to keep this rom slim. Open up Tablet Manager, hit the settings icon and uncheck Smart Tune-up if Permissions Manager force closes when you open it. Please hit the Thanks button if you like the ROM.
Features & Mods:
-AdAway
-Cust Mods
-Dark M2 Theme
-Deodexed
-GBoard
-Google Play Store, Google Contacts Sync
-Heavily Debloated
-Insecure boot.img
-Marshmallow Boot Animation
-Nova Launcher
-Region Mods
-SuperSU Preinstalled
Instructions:
1. OTA or Dload to B2xx first before flashing. The ROM will not boot if you're still on anything lower than B2xx
2. Download ROM and put it on the phone's internal storage or SDCard
3. Boot into TWRP recovery.
4. Performing a factory reset using TWRP is recommended.
5. Flash the ROM
6. Reboot System
7. Profit!

Many thanks! What a nice surprise. This seems to be the first custom rom for the m8.
Appears that it is for the 802l. Would it also work for the 801l?
At the moment I have 5.1 reverted to stock. BL unlocked.

It should work on both versions provided you update to stock B2xx first. After someone updates to B2xx on their 802L I need them to send me two things.
1) Their cust folder so I can integrate it into the rom.
2) Their system/emui folder. There should be a folder called oversea in there which I need to integrate into the rom.
Sorry, I don't have the b215 yet. There was no update to 6.0 till now and i can't find even a newer version for the 801l then the one attached.

The B215 update posted in one of these threads is for the 801L because when I flashed it I had no cellular data option at all.
Just tried to install the b019. But again it's a incompatible version. I guess it's because it's for the m2 803l.
Anyway, thanks for your help. I'll have to wait until until the official update hits my tab.
I tried with hisuite, but i have already the latest version available.
Hi. Thanks for the rom. I have 802l - b006 with unlock bootloader. Can I use your rom without updating to b219? I dont have any ota update that I can installl

No, things like wifi won't work unless you upgrade to B211 first. Hold off on flashing until I sort out the root issue. Systemless root causes freezes. I'm working on porting the kernel from the X2 so I can use regular root which will fix the freezing issues.
New build up. Fixed root causes freezing in apps.
Do you know where to get the b011? The b006 is the latest rom that I can find for my m2.

my 801w was detected during installation as 802l. Don't know if this is what's causing the trouble, but after installing via TWRP, coming from some b2xx official ROM, i'm stuck at the Huawei Bootscreen for about 10 minutes now. I know that the first start could take a lot of time, but this seems a bit unusual to me. I'll keep it watching for another 15-20 minutes and see if it boots up fine or is frozen in any way.
[Update] so it was stuck in a loop for sure. I tried flashing a clean b2xx from another thread, which booted fine, and dirty flashing your ROM over, but same behaviour. What actually DID work is flashing the boot.img from stock over your ROM, so keeping the other partitions from Simply Google Installation. At least it's booting up now, showing the proper Android Nougat loading screen. Let's see how it works out...

Cannot dirty flash
I currently have thomson.aa's unofficial lineage os build installed. This update shows up in the updater app, but after I download it, it says the zip is corrupt or unsigned and it does not let me install it. If I manually download it and try to install via TWRP, it fails saying "can't install this package on top of incompatible data. Please try another package or run a factory reset". I would hate to have to reinstall all my stuff, though. Is there some way around this? Or is there something wrong with the update?
Got no problems installing it via TWRP. Works great, stable so far.
crdroid was fine too, lots of special settings (little too much for me), but I prefer a ROM with regular OTA updates. Thank you beroid anyway.
P.S. My grammar help changes "beroid" to "heroic"

You basically asked the same question in 2 threads??? So as this isn't really thomson.aa's problem, I'll answer you here.
I dirty flashed from stock -> cm13 -> crDroid -> thomson.aa's LOS14 without issue. I tried with the official release and got the same as you. So after editing the installer script to force it to install, it did. But once it booted, everything kept force closing. It just wasn't happening.
So I wiped data and chose to restore my backup from google. I just installs most of your apps but it saves a bit of time. Still need to set things up properly though.

I figured this might be due to either
- Something being wrong with the currently installed build
- Something being wrong with the one I'm trying to install
That's why I posted in both places. Sorry if that is not the thing to do.
Thanks for your reply. I guess I'll have to do another reinstall then.
Wifi

I have no wifi, too (after trying a dirty install over an old CM13 that resulted in an error). Here's the issue in their bugtracker, I think, in case anyone else experiences this.
Got the same issue when trying to go back to CM13 now -___-
Seems strange that I've had no wifi issues. I've tried turning it on and off with no problems.
A few (maybe patronising) thoughts:
Did you guys check the md5 hash?
Which recovery did you use? I used TWRP 3.0.2.5
Were you previously on COS13.1.2? I was.
I downloaded fresh open-gapps for the install - ARM64, 7.1, nano.
I wiped system, dalvik, cache. Installed LOS14.1, su, gapps in that order.
The dirty boot left me with lots of force closures so I wiped data, dalvik and cache, completed the wizard after booting and all was fine.

I was on the latest CyanogenMod snapshot.
I wiped data, dalik and cache, then installed lineage, gapps and su. Restoring a nandroid backup of CM13 did bring the wifi back again.
I then wanted to restore my backup of lineage, because I already transferred most apps and settings and don’t care to much for the wifi (hoping it will be solved in not too far future), but TWRP failed to recover, getting stuck while restoring data, only restoring the system partition. Strangely, after this, the wifi worked, however I experienced many FCs. After wiping data again, the wifi was broken again, the MAC adress showing as 02:00:00:00:00:00.
Wiping system, I tried to reinstall lineage without any extras, but TWRP just got stuck again with no progress being made after detection of the partitions. Strangely, restoration of the lineage backup worked now, including data The original problem persists, of course.
I mentioned COS13.1.2 specifically because it flashes partitions other than system that may affect your situation. CM doesn't. If you've had COS13.1.2 installed previously then these other partitions should be up to date.
If you're having inconsistent results using TWRP3.0.3 it may be worth trying 3.0.2.5.

Hello,
I would response to the official thread, but I'm not allowed.
Could somebody please tell me if there is an OTA function in Freedom OS, or how I could update it?
Aroma installer only configure once, so how I reconfigure without loss of my data?
Thanks mcdy
XDA has a per-thread search function, please use it next time.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/search/thread/3409348?query=ota
Short answer: Do not use the OTA function, it will attempt to download regular Oxygen OS.
Flashing a new version of Freedom OS while configuring it with Aroma will not delete any of your files in internal storage, or any of the settings in your apps. Just install the same apps that you had before.
Thanks for reply, I tried search, but looks like the wrong way.
So I have to flash update over recovery?
What if I want more or less apps, is this also possible?
You only write same.
Thanks mcdy

You can add more apps or choose to not install any app you want. When updating (through recovery), TWRP essentially wipes your /system partition and replaces it with the ROM you are currently flashing. All the apps in the AROMA installer system apps, so flashing a new version will essentially delete all the old ones and replace then with those you choose to install. App data and settings for those apps are saves in /data rather than /system, so your settings will remain unchanged.

Thanks for reply, I tried search, but looks like the wrong way.
So I have to flash update over recovery?
What if I want more or less apps, is this also possible?
You only write same.
Thanks mcdy

Imagine your system, OS, and system apps is on drive C: and all your downloaded apps, data, and personal files are on drive D:
The installer only touches C: so you can configure it however you want as many times as you want.

That's pretty obvious, isn't it?
I installed TWRP and Lineage OS last weekend. I've been actively tweaking everything under the sun. I'm now wondering how the update process works. I installed Lineage Downloader app, and just received a downloaded zip file.
Would installing that zip completely redo my OS again (after just being installed a week ago)? Wiping out all the tweaks I've been making?
If so, is there a way to get just regular incremental changes (i.e. OS updates/patches) rather than having to reinstall the entire OS every week or so?
Sorry for the newbie questions, but I don't see them asked elsewhere, and all this rooting business is new to me.
TIA

You don't need an extra app, if you have official lineageOS. Simply go settings > about phone > updates. The updater downloads and installs a full OS. Incremental updates only available from MoKee AFAIK.
Everything "under the sun" will stay the same. But changes in the dark corners of /system will be overwritten if they don't have addon.d survival equipment.

Thanks for the information!
Do the gapps update themselves or do I also need to download them from time to time?

Gapps are shelf-updating. Modern twrp can flash recovery.img for own updates. I recommend manual update. Not twrp app.

Again I think you! Some day, I'll understand all this.
