Finally figured out how to install Lineage... I think... it's installed for sure but not working. When at first startup it asked to choose a launcher, I picked PIXEL because had no idea which was which, and now I have no desktop, just the wallpaper and every 10sec the message pops up saying Pixel Launcher Keeps Stopping.
Went into the app, force stop, cleared cache and data, reboot and no change. No icons or anything so can't get into Play and download another launcher either.
Any ideas? I have 0 rooting/image/lineage type experience. My old tablet was a Nexus10 and Wugfresh did everything for me so, kinda new to this.
Thanks

Looks like you have a strange lineageOS version. Normally there is only trebuchet launcher. You can always restart installation at the step in twrp wipe system and data.

I followed howtogeek.com/348545/how-to-install-lineageos-on-android (I'm too new to post links).
Maybe it's the GApps? was vague on that stuff and were like 8 options and no idea which to choose so went for the Stock version
I need to redo it again anyways... followed directions but SuperSU not working right... tablet does show rooted but when I went to install Pokemon Go, immediately says won't work on rooted devices. Stupid Niantic. Doesn't matter, I never used anything that needed Root anyways. I'm a pretty basic user. Just want the games and Chrome to work really... but ever since 7.1 downloaded to the tablet, quite a few people with the same tablet can no longer play Marvel Contest of Champions because of the insanely long load screens and lag. From what I tried so far, this fixed it.
I'll try the install of LineageOS again but leaving out SuperSU and GApps.

All working now... tried without GApps and didn't like it, couldn't figure out where Google app store button was etc... so redid it again, same way as before with GApps but, left out the SuperSU which is what rooted the tablet, and works fine now. Just made sure when started up, not to choose Pixel as a launcher.
Need to figure out a few things... hoping a way to switch around the clock... time in the top/left corner is weird... never had a phone/tablet where it wasn't top/right. But small issues like that... just happy that certain apps are running properly again. Have playing games on a phone, I have big hands.
One issue I can't sort out yet... when I hold down on the background I get options for home settings, widgets and wallpaper...when I click to change wallpaper it just says app not installed

How did you get it to work all over again? I have a similar problem with no idea of how to boot my phone back in recovery mode (TWRP) and flash another GApps/ROM. I was using ADB command and honestly, I'm green on this.

Can't recall... spent hours on this thing to make it work and now that it does I haven't touched the installer since.
Fixed
I rebooted into TWRP, copied on my computer the file "/data/system/packages.xml" edited under <package name="com.google.android.apps.nexuslauncher" ... and <perms>, I added the following lines:
<item name="android.permission.STATUS_BAR" granted="true" flags="0" />
<item name="android.permission.MANAGE_ACTIVITY_STACKS" granted="true" flags="0" />
(watch the screenshot)
saved the new xml and put back in /data/system/ with TWRP file manager... and the crash was fixed, no need to install other stuff!

Hello,
I'm having a problem where my touch screen is no longer recognizing where I touch. I have been in the process in rooting my kindle, flashing the CM10 jelly bean ROM with SGT7 enhancements, and trying to install access to the Google Play. I did a backup before I rooted the kindle, but I haven't done any additional backups along the way.
Everything seemed to be fine until I started trying to install access to Google Play. I did not have it by default with the ROM so I went looking for it. I read the forums and tried a few things that other people had done but had no success (the google framework would not install) until I tried a procedure I found on youtube that someone else had had success with. After I installed it, I had two new icons "Market" and "Market Opener". When I selected either one of them, I was prompted to create an goodle account for my device, but the request always returned with an error saying the connection could not access the google server. So, I began looking around in all my settings to see if I could find a setting that might affect the success for failure of trying to do this, and I started having a lot of trouble with the touchpad responsiveness as I tried to navigate around the menus. It was very frustrating. So, since I had not done a back up before installing the market apps, I tried to uninstall it. But, the touch screen was just not cooperating. So, I went a step further and rebooted to recovery to see if I could uninstall the apps from there. But again, the touchpad was still not cooperating. It was very inconsistent and would respond to very few touches. So finally, I decided the heck with it and want to restore my backup to the stock kindle and start all over again. However, the touch screen won't recognize the swipe to confirm restoring the backup. So now I am hosed and I don't know what to do.
Is there any way to restore a backup through my PC using adb?
Here's what I think I have installed:
fff-u-boot_v1.4a.zip
KFU v0.9.6
openrecovery-twrp-2.2.0-blaze.img
cm-10-20120817-2143-SNAPSHOT-otter-sgt7-linaro.zip
ROOTexplorer.apk
GoogleServicesFramework.apk
KindleFireAndroidMarket.zip
MarketOpener.apk
I'm pretty new at this, so any hand-holding you can offer would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
Valerie
P.S. It's also very puzzling to me why it seems to hard to find the right stuff to install in order to get access to Google Play. Any idea why it is so hard? I'd just like to understand. Thanks.

Wow, no one has responded to my post. This must be a problem no one has seen before. Leave it to me to find new ways to screw up!
Well, I've made a little progress getting my system back to a usable state. I was able to set the system back to factory defaults. Of course I lost all of my customized settings, but at this I don't really care. The touch screen works much better now. If I had to guess (but I could be wrong) I would say that my touch screen troubles were due to having played with the wallpaper settings (and maybe combined with placing widgets on the home screen). There might be something screwy going on there, but I don't know for sure, and I don't want to go back and attempt to recreate the problem right now.
Now, I still have the problem of not being able to connect to the market. I also have read other people's posts where they refer to the "google play" app. I have not seen a google play app. All I have is a "market" app. Where do I get the google play app?

You need to flash a gapps archive appropriate for the ROM you have flashed on your system. Those other packages you have installed are for getting google play to work on the stock system. For a custom ROM, you just need to install gapps.
http://goo.im/gapps
Again, make sure you match the right gapps package for the system you are running. CM10 is JB, CM9 is ICS, etc. I'm not sure how the play/market packages you've already installed would affect the ROM. Just to be safe, I would just go back to TWRP, use factory reset to get back to a clean slate, reflash the ROM and then the gapps package. Then a reboot will take you straight into google's configuration wizard. Register your google account and you'll find google play ready for use among the installed applications.
Thank you!

Hi, new to the forum, I tired to figure out this problem on youtube to no avail. So I have a rooted g3 with twrp. After the botting process, it takes me to the setup screen. But after getting to the point where I pick the look of the onscreen home buttons etc, the wizard crashes, I press 'OK" and it starts over. So then I found a link here about going into twrp and deleting the setupwizard.apk file which is supposed to 'fix" the problem(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2668851). Did that then I rebooted but still same issue remains. What else can be done about this?

I had the same issue when flashing "Lonely Rom" and "Zone Rom" (come to find out my original out of the box rom crashed also if I went back into it and tried to do the set up again). 2 apks need to be deleted (4 if still odexed) LgStartUpWizard in system app folder and LgSetupWizard in priv-app folder. I edited my zip before flashing with all the updated Google equivalents plus some other stuff I normally do. The Google set up process worked like a charm and everything is running better than stock (better battery life and no noticeable lags) even though it's a "stock rom", I also run Xposed with several modules for my needs with no adverse effects here.

Hello,
I am new to the site, and fairly inexperienced with rooting. I used KingRoot to root my LG G3 and then did a factory reset so that I could re update to the current android version before rooting. Now I get stuck at the same point in the setup process. However, I do not have TWRP or CWM installed. What are my options?
Thanks

Go into permissions and issue all permissions to the browser, or just install chrome - it supports 6.0 better
I am not going to talk about GApps, sorry
Try the marshmallow for nexus 4 thread - people there might have answers.

For gapps i used this package https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347833783 its pretty basic but gets you what you need, make sure to do a factory reset after flashing it otherwise the setup wizard will fc.
Now all we need is root
Used these gapps, follow the instructions though, use "touch 'filename' " in TWRP terminal for the file creation. Gapps on 6.0 is struggling right now, but these instructions worked for me.

Same problem with soft reboots. Often just after starting Android before or after login. Even if I don't install gapps.

Also tried flashing supersu 2.52 beta from twrp but that seems to make it stick at the android loading screen so I guess there's no root at the moment.
it is a userdebug image, so at least in adb you have root
Amazing piece of work. Gonna try it as soon as a reliable gapps package is out!

I was having the bootloop at google logo and couldn't figure out what to do.
great job on the rom, no idea why people are having issues, i found the gapps package in the nexus 4 forum....no bootloops here, everything seems to work......I was able to enable google now on tap however i do not know how to use it, instructions say to hold down the home button to launch, however we do not have a home button, any ideas?

Maybe we need a kernel that supports root. That's how it is on the Nexus 5 anyway. I don't know if any of the lollipop kernels would work on this. Maybe I'll try that sometime soon.
Just an FYI.....
Updating Google Play Services (required for YouTube) sends it into a FC loop.

I've noticed it has been pretty quick. Did a full wipe and used the system.img from his website. Used these gapps. https://github.com/XorgMC/gapps-mm/releases/download/v1-mini/gapps-mm-mini.zip
Also, if you use those gapps it will say it failed if you try to restore your apps. Hit skip and it will say restoring. It will take a long time to install the apps. If you lock the screen and then unlock it swiping from the side to open the google app you can use the device while it restores your apps.
I havent had any issues related to the rom, just the gapps. Google app fails when i try to search something.
I have been experiencing MASSIVE slow down and lag in all of my Apps the past month. When I have facebook messenger open, or my camera, everything slows to a halt. It is making using the phone a nightmare.
I tried getting an SD card, doing a full factory reset, and a few other things, but it is still going extremely slow. I have read 100s of forum posts, and nothing I can find seems to be working.
I was able to install TWRP recovery, and would like to root my device so I can start uninstalling the moto apps, or further diving into figuring out why my phone is going slow.
I can not get the Magisk to install correctly, and have tried so many things now that I am at a loss...
I tried doing a "format" doing a "wipe" putting the zip file on my external SD card, but nothing is working.
If I just go and try it normal I get the "Can not mount storage" error that seems to be coming for the device being encrypted. If I do a format or wipe it does not give me any errors and seems to install correctly, but when I reboot (it goes through the encryption process, and "new phone setup" process) the Magisk manager isnt installed. If I download the APK manually it says it is not rooted. (I tried Magisk 17.3 and the latest 18.1 and 18.1 beta)
I have no clue what to do now. Any one have any suggestions?

People kept talking about it, but I couldnt find the files to patch in Magisk, and when I used the TWRP that was supposed to be decrypted it wouldnt flash.
Would you happen to be able to find the forum post describing what to do? I searched again and couldnt find any instructions. Sorry to ask... I have seriously just been googling this for 2 straight days and cant figure it out.

1. Flash TWRP.
2. Mount /Vendor in TWRP, then flash the universal encryption disabler which can be found in this thread.
3. Format /data in TWRP using the option that requires you to type in "yes".
4. Reboot from twrp right back into twrp, then flash Magisk.
5. If for some reason Magisk claims to not be installed after flashing it, then manually install the Magisk manager app. It should fix it right up.
6. Profit.
Twrp with /vendor mounting can be found here for 16gb variants, and here for 32gb.

If no 3rd party apps are installed and it's still slow, then you probably have a hardware problem. If you do have any 3rd party apps installed, I'd try removing them one by one to see if anything improves.

Well... there is no way to see if it is slow if there are no other apps to use. ;p
Do you know if there is an app that shows CPU usage per app?

I think there was a misunderstanding here. What I'm saying is, after you debloated the phone, if you didn't install any apps and it's still acting slow, then you might have a hardware problem. I don't know of any apps to check CPU usage. Best I can think of is the battery settings. It'll at least tell you what's running the most. You could also check running apps in the dev settings to see what's using the most RAM. Between the two it should give you a good idea if a system app is doing something unusual.
It is possible that you're just used to a much faster phone though. My J7 Perx was way faster than the G6 Play, and it frustrated me for a few weeks. Still kind of irks me to be honest.
Anyone running Android Q beta 2 ? Can you make a comparison to Pie in terms of speed or apps that crash or hang? TIA
I have no apps crashing and no apps unable to start. Performance and battery are identical to Pie.
The Android Q is definitely a daily driver for me.
EDIT: The only single issue I have is that double-tap or lift to wake are not working.

Good Information:
Does it work with Android Q beta DP2 patch (marlin-qpp2.190228.023-factory-c262576d.zip)?

As you can see in this screenshot, it's working just fine. You have to install the latest Magisk canary build. TWRP won't work to do some backups, but you can flash it fine.
Been running Q2 for a few days and is a great daily driver. As soon as Nova paid was installed I have no complaints
and battery life has been excellent. Coming from the Essential phone rooted this has been a pleasant surprise. For 180.00 new
unlocked on Sprint this is a good deal. I also prefer the 16x9 screen and camera.
So, I have some weirdness going on…
I screwed up and tried to install the last P build after getting the ota beta Q update….i had issues (possibly of my own making).
Realized that trying to go back wasn’t going to work so I thought I would just reinstall the Q beta version 2, I downloaded it…all seemed well until I wanted to get to “settings”
I can pull the “curtain’ down and see a few quick access icons (wifi, Bluetooth, airplane mode…) but it won’t pull farther down (second swipe) to see other options and the “settings” gear at the top. I also don’t seem to be getting notifications, I hear them but don’t see an icon.
I also can’t get to the setting that allow me to transfer files.
Any ideas?
Edit: also can't get to my app drawer...
Edit 2: home button doesn't work either...
I got it, it must have been a bad "dirty flash", did a clean install, and all is working as expected...except,
I've got root but can't see my internal storage with ES file explorer (I can see it when using my PC) (or any other root explorer) and can't edit my build.prop (can't save it)

I did a clean flash, and had the same issue with the internal storage. It was weird though because chrome couldnt see it either, and kept failing to get permission to store files. Doing another Wipe now to try and resolve it...

Please let us know if it works....I hardly ever use my hot spot, but it's nice to know I have it for emergencies!

Wasn't talking about hotspot specifically.... The issue with Chrome is still there, still not able to download anything, as it pops up that it needs permission, I hit continue...and nothing. It normally gives the permission request notification here, but it does not.

Right, I don't think I've tried to download anything with chrome, I want the permissions so I can edit the buildprop file.
Having just checked, I also cannot download anything using chrome, Opera doesn't seem to have a problem, though. I didn't check any other browsers

After clean flash, still having the same issue with the downloads. Going to Solidexplorer shows that the sdcard partition never created a Download folder. Chrome also is completely not working now, so definitely rolling back until it's resolved.
