Problems with WearOs app - LineageOS Questions & Answers

Hello everybody. I have updated this ROM (16) and would like to know if any of you have had any problems with WearOs. This app doesn't go beyond the startup screen. I've granted all permissions and turned off battery optimization.
I flashed Gapps micro
Thank you.

Solved yesterday, dont' bother editing permission or whatever, the problem is somewhere else: the lastest GAPPS for android 10 are buggy (there's a notice just before downloading them) so don't use the latest but choose the 6 february 2021 version if your'e using lineageos 17.1 .
To repair the mess you should boot to twrp, wipe system, cache and dalvik, reflash rom and that specific "old" gapps revision

OmniROM 4.4 Randomly Crashes

Hey,
Sorry if this not the place for posting this.
I followed this "Guide: and installed the Rom
Flashed TWRP 2.6.3 with odin from the Toolkit (selected the TWRP instead the one in the toolkit folder) FR and FS, Installed the Rom without any problem, rebooted again into dev mod, installed Google Apps, DATA WIPE, Reboot and SuperSU. Everything works grate.
The only (biggest) problem is that it crushes randomly. Cleared cache and delvik cache, after "opt apps" complete - Nothing helps. It's not a specific app it can crash on idle too. After holding power and rebooting everything come to normal
I did search on those threads but I can't find someone with this issue. Again, The OS itself crash - not an app.
Anyone can help?
Same random freezes here on my N7100.
Mine seems lock up/freeze more often when I have WiFi on.
I tried everything possible, every tweak in Android Tuner, still a no go.
At the moment, I'm on the 11/28 nightly after using Homebrew. Both present the same issue.
Just flashed 11/28. No apps installed.
Im also experience the crashes on Omnirom first dec nightly. Specially twitter. FC on launch.
I've got to say, I don't know what I did but the FC's stopped. There some minor App's getting FC's but that better then the issue.
Although maybe changing form delvik to art did something, My guess the problem is in the gapps, and after some updates the sys stabilized...
I still don't know the exact cause or the way to solve it...:S

twrp removes recent installed apps

i have OP3 - omni rom 7.1.1 - elemntx kernel
every thing was fine when one day i noticed that every time i use twrp to install, uninstall or wipe cache the recent apps after february 10 would be gone .
im not sure if its kernel or something else.

Clean flash resurrection remix, latest files; Gapps force closing on boot

Hi all,
Detailing my issue;
Oneplus 3, running custom Rom Resurrenction Remix, ElementalX kernel, all running well. Had previously installed roms a few times on the device without issues
Phone froze after using an app made by my company for a yearly event - must not have been compatible with my device. Restarting phone, bootloop.
Clearing cache/Dalvik - boot, data lost...
Trying to reinstall my Resurrection Remix rom. Tried all the old files I had from my last install, they all were still in my storage folder (OnePlus 3 firmware, the rom, the Gapps package, Elementalx... which worked on my past install)
Upon first boot (setting up the phone), all the google apps close one after the other constantly.
I re-try a full clean install (Cache, Dalvik, Data, System), latest Resurrenction official (5.8.3), latest firmware (Oneplus3_4.1.1Firmware+Modem), tried the suggested Gapps (BeanGapps Mini 7.1) but tried also nano, stock (always ARM64 for 7.1). Of course a new clean wipe between each test. Don't even bother with ElementalX until issue resolved...
And I am still getting my Google apps crashing upon phone setup, or in case of minimum gapps packs as soon as I finish installing them, incapable of opening...
Spent a few hours yesterday trying to get this right - what am I missing? Anything that is not deleted from my Clean wipe? What changed?For now my phone runs on a backup I still had running OOS nougat... but really want to get back to custom Rom.
Any lead? Many thanks for any help.
in twrp select mount and pick system
go back to the main screen then select advanced then file manager go to root/system/etc/setupmanager/setupmanager.apk
delete the file or rename it then reboot the phone

The "old" Lineage 17.1 thread got lost during some xda server maintenance. It's not really clear to me what happened.
It couldn't be brought back for several weeks now, so I decided to create a new thread.
I'd also like to inform you that I'll provide some test builds here. Before merging bigger changes I'd like to ensure the builds are okay (not just for me).
It would be nice if some of you could test a bit. Only caveat: You won't be able to switch between test builds/official builds easily as different signature keys are used and a factory reset is needed (alternatively flashing a migration file could save you from resetting the device (more info)). However, these test builds are thought for interested persons only
You'll find the first test build here.
Changes:
switch to userspace lmkd (more info here)
It would be interesting if you experience any differences in memory management (how many apps can be opened in background, how fast is app switching, when are apps closed...).
And of course if the system is usable at all.
Recovery
Can the lineage-recovery.img do nandroid backups now that twrp can't?

Lineage recovery can't do backups. TWRP can.
But standard users installing gapps could also do a backup via google servers. I guess that's the most "easiest" thing.

I've just tried to restore a recent backup for the first time with android 10 (lineage 17.1) and although it appears to backup the restore did not work. I tried it twice. Then I remember reading that twrp were having problems being totally compatible with the new partitioning of android 10 so there have been no updates since may 2019. I'm assuming that's the issue with the latest backups (and I don't use gapps).

What's happening when you're restoring? Are you running into a bootloop?
Then probably this could help.
Please keep in mind TWRP isn't able to decrypt an encrypted /data partition. As long as we don't fix it, you won't have any chance to backup an encrypted device.
If you're not encrypted it shouldn't be a problem, though.
Edit:
You can find the build with the according changes here.
Please report back if it works for you. Keep in mind you can't dirty flash this over an official build.
Edit 2:
I checked the issue on my own and it worked. The change got already merged so it'll be included in the next official build as well. As builds are weekly temporary you could download it next saturday.

Thanks for the info. That's exactly what's happening but I have no idea how to apply that patch. I don't really want to install an unoffical rom: that's how I discovered twrp wasn't working properly, testing one of my builds then hoping to go back to your offical from restore.
Any way I'm happy to wait for your next issue.
Thanks for doing a great job.
I've just installed the Lineage OS 17.1 official on my Swift. Although this 17.1 thread mentions OpenGapps pico only (which was the case under LOS 16), even the pico package produces an insufficient space error on my Swift. (This is after a completely clean - wipe system and data and all caches - installation).
Have Gapps just gotten too big for these small devices? Or is there some trick to get it to work?
thanks.

Last time I tried it worked. But you're right - the available space on /system is very rare. I already made some "hacks" to free up some space. You could try to overcome this by installing an older pico gapps package from here which is smaller. It'll update itself if you connect to a wifi network anyway.
Another thing you could try is using FlameGapps. The final thing would be resizing the /system partition.
Is anyone else experiencing this issue? I can't reproduce it on my device.
And can someone give feedback for the latest testbuilds featuring userspace lmkd? I'd really appreciate it.
Certification Status on 17.1
Hi,
I am currently on LineageOS 16 and Play Store reports my device as "certified", which allows me to run Netflix, banking apps, etc.
Will this also be the case when updating to 17.1 with Pico Gapps wihtout tweaking / installing anything else?
Thanks!
Must sideload, not enough space to push and install from local, I feel silly...
Aargh. Grrr. (Angry at myself. I was being stupid).
The reason why even the pico package "didn't fit" is that I'd pushed it to the device and was trying to install it locally, which (of course, in retrospect, despite there being plenty of other space on other partitions) used up some of the precious free space on /system .. for a thing that needed space to install on /system.
I deleted the local copy of the .ZIP file and sideloaded it, and it fit.
Aargh. Grrr.
Aside from my own self-stupidity, I did notice one thing that might be of interest to someone: The FlameGapps package installer refused to continue, stating that the package was built for Android 10 but this device is running (blank).
Anyway, many thanks!

I don't use gapps on my own. But play certification is a mystery sometimes. However, as nobody complained until now (and I guess most users install gapps...) it should be okay. Maybe someone can verify this.
Hello there. I am currently using the latest version of LOS 17.1. There is no problem throughout the system, but when I try to use one application, the phone resets itself. While opening the application, it stays on the white screen and the phone is reset. Application;

I flashed the latest nightly + pico gapps using TWRP and
everything is working beautifully
Playstore reports the device to be certified
So thanks a lot!

Can verify that my Play Store, on 17.1, reports my ridiculously modded Swift as certified without having to do anything to achieve that.
Sorry, I know I am a real dunderhead when it comes to these things and I apologise for such a basic question. But...
I have a Swift 2 X which is working on Oreo. If I replace this with LineageOS 17 do I have to do anything "fancy" to get Google Pay to work after I've installed LineageOS?
I've installed LineageOS on my Oppo R5 which doesn't have NFC so this can't use "Tap 'n' Pay" anyway. I've installed LineageOS on mine and my Wife's Nextbit Robin and Google Pay - "Tap 'n' Pay" - worked without doing anything more than install and go.
It's just that I do really like the facility of Google Pay and wouldn't want to lose that just for the sake of system wide dark mode.
Sorry again for being so dense as to not understand.

Problems after first update of LineageOs 17.1 install

First update since installing Lineageos on Lenovo P2.
The navigation bar along the bottom disappeared. Couldn't be swiped up - had been fixed previously.
Then found other things as well. Fingerprint sensor not working. Pixel launcher failing. Had been using Nova launcher and foolishly removed it thinking I'd reinstall to see if it restored the nav bar. But now stuck with a failing launcher and can't start anything - including Play to reinstall Nova. Just says 'Pixel Launcher keeps stopping, App info, Close App.' Cleared cache from App info as that was all I could do but no difference.
I haven't read it anywhere but are updates cumulative? Ie, can I skip one if I miss it and get all updates rolled up into the next one. I hope so because that's what I did. Jumped from something like 9th August to 30th.
Any ideas?
Current update always include codes from previous builds so you can skip nightlies in between. There are few solutions for your problem. I'm telling you two:
1. Install a third party launcher apk through system settings
2. Reboot into TWRP, wipe system only and install latest update package with nano gApps and it should work.

Thanks so much for your help. In fact, while trying your first suggestion I somehow got into Google Play through APK install settings from where I was able to reinstall Nova Launcher. So now I have a partly useable phone again but still with the problems that followed the update in my OP (navigation bar gone, fingerprint sensor stopped working plus the failing launcher - those are just the things I found without looking).
It's disappointing that the update failed though, not least as staying updated was a major reason for moving to Lineage. Any ideas why this might be?
Maybe I should try the second suggestion and reinstall the update by sideloading as described here. So do I use the same file that I use to install LineageOS in the first place from here https://download.lineageos.org/kuntao? It's not stated in the document. And will this wipe the phone clean again?
Finally would I have to re-sideload a GApps package at the same time and should it be Nano GApps as suggested? Originally I installed Open GApps as suggested in the upgrade instructions.

The Pixel launcher in Android 10 force closes if it is not chosen as "Recents provider". Therefore, navigation bar also stops working. Hence, we need Quickswitch app to choose Pixel or any other launcher such as Lawnchair for giving them the mentioned right and that works without any hiccups.
You should install the latest update after wiping system only. You don't need to wipe everything, just wipe system partition.
Nano GApps are taken from Open Gapps website. I've suggested nano GApps because it doesnt include Pixel Launcher hence, stock ROM launcher will flawlessly work. However, if you want to use Pixel Launcher then install Magisk from recovery and Quickswitch module within Magisk. Then open Quickswitch app from launcher and click Pixel Launcher. Quickswitch app will process for a few moments and will restart your phone. Now, choose Pixel launcher as default from settings if it is not used as default and Done.

Many thanks again for your detailed help. Much appreciated.
Went for standard Open GApps just because that's what I had before and had hoped to get it all back as it was. (I've no particular preference for Pixel only that was all that was available to me after updating through updater. ) I've got the update loaded now, sideloaded with adb and TWRP. Unfortunately I seem to have accidentally factory reset from TWRP (thought I was just swiping to unlock and only noticed too late. Doh.)
TBH, this has been a whole lot of hassle for an update. After hours to get this far now have to set phone up from scratch yet again. And crucially, I still don't know why updater failed. Going to be very nervous about running update in future and staying updated was the main point of moving to Lineage in the first place.
But thanks for help again.

No problem bro. Next time, when you update, follow these things:
1. Keep ROM, Magisk and GApps in a single folder.
2. When updating ROM, just install the ROM and restart.

Thanks again. That's good information. So you recommend not using the Updater but adb sideloading instead?
OK, and I just read this at stackexchange "You normally don't need to re-flash GApps as most GApps installers will install an addon.d script which restores GApps automatically after flashing a new ROM that supports addon.d (LineageOS does so)." So if GApps is in the same folder it finds it automatically I guess.
I'd better clue myself up on Magisk now and a decent backup system.
cheers

Built in update works as required but if it messes with system partition then you better download update and install it through recovery.
GApps can be restored after update but the point is that you don't need it. System update only replaces the older system files with new ones without touching gApps files. Whereas, Magisk is automatically installed after update if it's in the same folder.
