requesting f2fs fix for cedric - Moto G5 Questions & Answers

As you all know our cedric cant load magisk modules due to f2fs mount issue.. after digging around a lot.. i stuck with few threads that give possible fix.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70492947&postcount=8793
Can any kernel dev add this fix to their kernel? So that we can use magisk on stock rom?
Ya.. i know it will break ota.. but again we will get a fully functional magisk.
Thanks

Maybe it would be possible to change f2fs to ext4 for data partition instead, by edit the ramdisk fstab and format data to ext4 in twrp.
Not sure it would work.

I tried it with stock kernel.. system wont boot with ext4.
And no custom kernel have ever implemented it so far.

Take a look at this: ext4 test kernel

Thats great.. i will first back up my data to my pixel 2 xl.. and will give this a try.. btw.. if you can implement f2fs patch to stock kernel.. it will be a great thing too..

I've read in a Magisk related thread that the G5s or G5+ kernel works on the G5, and has no f2fs problem. Anyone else tried to flash it and confirm if it's 100% compatible with G5?

I could try if I find a kernel without having to dl a full fw

How can it be.. phones have different cpu, gpu, sensors, cam,... Everything is different.. so its not wise to try.

Never try that brother. G5 have different cpu . Than g5+ or g5s.

Yes I realized that yesterday when I looked it up [emoji2]. Even if G5s is quite similar, there's still different screen, camera etc so it would never work.

G5 ans G5S both have a snapdragon 430

Yes but there are still differences like screen, camera and probably other hardware as well, plus we have 7.0 while G5s has 7.1.

Custom rom with deactivated big cores?

Tried search and nothing found.
Is there a custom rom on lollipop or nougat where the big cores have been disabled in the kernel?
I've been using the stock firmware with the 2 big cores disabled for some time and the phone working fine.
Thanks
Looking for the same, mine is H811 and there is no tot file to disable the Big Cores
I'm trying to flash with H810 kdz and install the tot file for the H810 too, i think doing that, i'll solve the problem but now is another problem, HOW CAN I DO IT?! Hehe
Use kernel auditor on any rooted ROM and disable yourself

Imperium kernel has a version for marshmallow with disabled big cores, Titan kernel has a version for nougat. But your bootloader has to be unlocked to use them.

You can on both, it's your decision to make, Imperium kernel is for stock and stock based custom ROMs only.
Titan has a version for stock and another for LOS, AOSP, RR LOS based... etc. BUT there's only three ROMs compatible with Titan for LOS and LOS based for now.

Man thanks you so much!
What i did was, install Stock KDZ (H81120v_00_0425) and having already TWRP installed i flashed Imperium Kernel (KERNEL - h815_imperium-7.3c_4cores_TWRP-flashable) and BOOM! IT WORKED PERFECTLY! Now my phone is living again without bootloop issues!
I think this is the only way to fix H811 bootloop issus:
1. Try to boot your device, at least 1 minute to active Developer Options and inside it active USB Debugging and OEM Unlock, after it turns off again.
2. Install TWRP, and flash 4cores Imperium Kernel.
3. Done! Your phone will be back to life again!

Need Fix for hauxing display problem in custom roms

I have redmi note 5 pro indian version with huaxing display panel so if i flash any custom rom other than miui based rom it just shows a black screen ie no display so can anyone fix this?
I don't think Xiaomi will provide updated source codes

Yes, I informed the various recovery devs about that, I know it was fixed on latest versions.
I'm surprised it's not working for ROMS, I though the problem was fixed...
Have you tried telling that to the roms dev? I doubt anyone will read that here in this questions section...
The latest PE rom (https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-5-pro/development/rom-pixel-experience-t3830197) is almost perfect. Maybe it can be updated to include the relevant drivers.
Maybe it's a kernel thing also, so maybe it's something you should discuss with Derp Kern devs, for example?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-5-pro/development/derp-kernel-clang-4-4-138-t3804996
I don't really know who deals with "missing driver" in current context, try get more information in the threads?

The calibration file for this panel is missing on custom ROMs, here's a flashable zip with this file from MIUI which should fix this, mount system and vendor on recovery before flashing (mandatory)

Wow, can you confirm if this works on all ROMs ? Also, I'm using a custom modified kernel currently in order to use custom ROMs but it breaks WiFi. Does this break WiFi too ?
EDIT: I dirty flashed Bootleggers ROM which I was using with the modified kernel and flashed only the ROM and the fix zip. The black screen issue still persists. I had mounted both system and vendor before flashing the ZIP. Maybe I'm doing something wrong. I request the OP to confirm if the ZIP fixed his issue.

I don't have this panel and also using MIUI, i just found this file while i was looking for something else, i thought it might do the trick, maybe Xiaomi should update the source code to support this panel for custom ROMs, but clearly this file is the calibration for this panel!

About the FP Sensor I'm have a goodix too, but the dev of Pixel Experience is working on fix for it, maybe if you contact him, you problem with the Display can be solved.

The fingerprint issue was only with the old RR May build. After flashing the latest ROMs, the fingerprint option is available and works fine. Thanks though. As far as the display is concerned, custom ROMs don't boot without a specific kernel and that kernel breaks WiFi. I appreciate the efforts though. Also, on some ROMs, the maximum is quite dim but its fine on NOS and McAOSP.

Here is the fix

[UNITY] Various Fixes for the Moto G5/G5S [9+]

HUGE thanks to @giri45 for actually providing the fix!
What's this? ​
A Unity installer ensures that you can use this module with any kind of root solution (as long as it supports init.d)! If you have Magisk, flash the module through the Magisk Manager, but if you don't have Magisk, just flash the module through TWRP. When you want to uninstall the module, flash it again in Magisk Manager or TWRP.
As for the module itself, it provides a fix for LiveDisplay/Night Light on the Moto G5/G5S for anyone running an AOSP-based ROM running Android 9 or higher, and enables Camera2 API + EIS if you wish so.
Do NOT attempt to install this on other devices, or ROMs based on Android <9! Device and Android version checks have been applied to make sure this module will not install on incompatible devices. This module assumes that you are using the latest stock Oreo firmware (including bootloader, GPT and etc.)! Do not report issues if you are not on the latest firmware.
Tested ROMs:
Havoc OS 2.2
Pixel Experience 9.0
AOSPExtended 6.3
crDroid 5.0
Known issues:
Fix doesn't work on Nougat firmware. You must have fully flashed the stock ROM/flashed it via OTA, for this fix to work.
Downloads:
Download from Magisk Repo.​
Flash via Magisk Manager or TWRP. Make sure you have a root solution which supports init.d!
Thanx for trying to fix this. Unfortunately it's not working on my xt1794 running AospExtented. First try flashing through twrp failed, the updaterscript didn't recognize my phone (correctly), then installing as magisk module, but no night light..

That's really weird. Installs fine and works on PE, installs fine but doesn't work on ViperOS, and now doesn't work on AOSPExtended.
Could you try providing installation logs located in the Internal storage?
Have you also tried manually replacing the files? If that works, then it's not a problem with the ROM...

[Magisk] Mic low volume fix - custom roms

This is a fairly simple module that increases the mic volume for custom roms. Since a couple of months, mic volume became so low (I guess it happened after flex used xiaomi's Jan blobs in los16). This module just edits mixer_path_mtp file and raises the volume a bit. I've been using it for a month and no one complains about my low volume anymore.
This is not tested and will not probably work in stock rom since I remember that mixer_path file in stock is named something else and I don't remember it.
You may send me any mixer_path file in/vendor/etc/ and I will try to do the same edits and it would work.
Repo:
https://github.com/ahmedkassem56/tissot-mic-fix
Works perfectly (Revenge OS).
Thanks.

This is a magisk module that you should flash using magisk manager. AFAIK, Most custom roms have fixed the issue and added similar changes so I don't think this is necessary anymore.

New front camera (Omnivision OV13B10) doesn't connect with custom Q, on RN8

UPDATE:
temblor55 has made a Magisk patch for this problem, which he posted on 18 september::
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-3y1CR6nfVhFYf9VpE11FXOmDEQl5VMt/view
Pat57 has confirmed that it works for him.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I have a RN8 from 11-2020 board ID 3.29
Instead of the usual Omnivision OV13855 frontcam, there is a new version OV13B10 inside.
This camera sensor is also installed in later Redmi phones
This new version works OK with Miui 11.0.11 -A9, and higher
Custom A11 rom's will problably work also all with this frontcam (I tried CrDroid 7.4 -A11 with succes)
But I can't find a custom A10 rom that can connect to this frontcam.
Always get the message "can not connect to camera"
Because of speed, stability and more development, I prefer a A10 custom rom (Resurrection Remix)
I think it isn't the Xiaomi FW, so maybe it could be the kernel.
I have tried the updated 2021 -A10 roms and A10 kernels without succes.
So problably it is about missing libs inside rom.
Is there a way to find these libs in a A11 custom rom or Miui rom and add them inside A10 rom?
I don't want to deep dig in it, because A11 will be the future solution.
But development on A11 rom's is fast ongoing, so there are bugs which some are irritating.
So if someone could give a direction, I will be thankfull

I had similar problem, but i don't think it's not from the libs, it's a "persist" thing
restore "persistbak" and flash it (or if you already have a recovery backup of persist just restore it)

Because I have flashed several different rom's and kernels and found that only Miui and A11 custom does recognize the selfiecam
If the persist partition was corrupted, this wasn't possible.
Because FW is from Miui, it could be the kernel or rom.
A lot of A10 custom roms are EOL, they are build with the original early hardware drivers/libs
From 11-2020 PCB-ID 3.29 the camsensor is changed and the RN8 was also almost EOL.
In september 2020 the first A11 build came out and at the end of 2020 more and more builds.
So I assume most developers don't even think about updating the kernel or libs on their "old" A10 versions.
Inside the screenshots of the app "Device info HW" you see the 19 supported cams of CrDroid 7.4 and only 17 on RR 8.6.7

yes, on paper the problem sounds like it has nothing to do with persist
but as stupid as it sound ,it just worked ! (restoring persist) + latest stable A10 fw
devs didn't update the port because it just worked, and i heard it's a hard thing to mess with ...

For who has worked this? Have you one or more links to it?
I had read already the guides for restoring, but because all sensors does work I'm a bit holding back.
I like to read first some experiences with this, before I touch the persist partition.

link to what ?
i had similar problem on my 128 variant and asked help in RR TG group (group is deleted by rodrigo) rr official dev is always offline, so rr users moved to milestone by zhan (which is miles better)
"all sensor work fine except camera"
nobody have idea and no dev support, so i try lot of things
and flashing latest A10 fw and restore persistbak + clean flash of RRos + 16 kernel are the last things i did and it worked
if you have orangfox do a backup of persist ,so if anything goes wrong you can just restore it

what do you mean by batch ? i have ginkgo 6/128
the error was "can't connect to camera" (i guess,both front and back since i can't do anything while that error is apearing)

The batch date 11-2020 is the phone with problems.
First the problem with FW 12.01. This is the only phone that can't be flashed with that version. If you did with twrp, you had a brick.
Second the HW change of the selficam. I have seen I'm not the only one with Andoid Q "not connecting" to this specific cam.
On LOS 17 topic a saw there is a formel bug report published about this issue
I can use all other cams without problems. The error is only with selfiecam and A10. Not with Miui and not with A11.
That is why I think of a missing driver.
I read something about adding missing drivers, but think it isn't easy.
Also I understand that the vendor image contains the hardware drivers.
So trying kernels only hasn't influence on HW changes
I can imagine that A11 custom uses also later vendor images, that's why these roms work with selficam.
Next question would be.
Are vendor images for Ginkgo intechangable?

have you tried A10 latest stable FW ? (it has updated drivers in it)

as far as i tested(A10), they are all almost the same, except for some roms have some carrier overlays and BT in it and other have them in system
also audio mods and enhancement, some roms have it and other don't

Yes I have the latest stable FW. First I thought that these contains the HW drivers.
But reading, I learned that with latest Android versions all drivers are inside vendor image.
That is why updating FW and kernel doesn't make any difference for RR.
Because of all brick/EDL troubles I'm being carefull what I flash.
I have made for now a twrp backup of vendor and efs partition.
The persist parttion must be backup with adb or terminal
My phone is still an empty phone so I can format data and so on.
I saw that Miui vendor files are downloadable.
The latest Global is 11.0.11

before changing system try RR with A11 vendor just to make sure
(i did that between 2 A10 roms and it worked,but A11 = not tested)
you can wipe everything and flash rr since your data is not important

Dit you flash the complete vendor.img from another A10 rom?
or replaced the 3 vendor files inside the rom's?

i flashed a rom (Don't remember the name) and i did a mess in vendor ,so instead of reflashing, i restored a recovery backup of vendor of an older rom (AEX) that was on my SD
of course error like app x stopped working popped off,so this is not a fix
this is just a crazy suggestion to test the compatibility of the drivers
also test this cam :
ɬɧɛ Ɩųŋąɬıƈ in Dtuxed Roms Public Group
t.me
it has updated libs
maybe it will work

Ok you flashed vendor.img with twrp
The download link is Miui camera.
There where no HW drivers inside
I already found also such a zip with libs, but without result
It is for improving camera results

i made a mistake in the zip
the cam that i wanted to give you is in the same group
i will see if i can find it
Try this bro
Thank you, I surely want to try this Magisk mod file, but the file isn't accessible without requist.
Maybe you have your reasons for that, but in that case it isn't possible to download.
I have tried to comment this with the video too, but you have disabled comments there.
