Another random error while compiling AOKP pie for the XA2 Ultra. These calls work properly when compiling Lineage, but don't work in the AOKP source tree, so I did some digging.
error: vendor/qcom/opensource/cryptfs_hw/Android.bp:27:37: unrecognized property "product_variables.lineage.uses_metadata_as_fde_key"
In the end, I found …
Another strange set of errors while compiling AOKP. It seems like they are in the middle of merging some Lineage commits, but didn't finish them. Either way, I ran into this problem with Ext3Crypt:
compile system.com/vold/Ext4Crypt.cpp:204:12: error: use of undeclared identifier 'fs_mgr_is_wrapped_key_supported'
So, I …
Well, that was a new one to me! I had just build LineageOS and Resurrection Remix for the XA2 Ultra, and now I got this error in the first minute of trying to build AOKP. Here's the full error:
vendor/qcom/opensource/audio/policy_hal/AudioPolicyManager.cpp:2240:65: error: member …
And it wasn't, well, once I learned how to do it properly. Unfortunately it took me an hour to get there! First I monkeyed around with vmware-tools, and vmware-mount, and then I tried kpartx, and all of it was a wash.
Then, after more searching online, I found a guy …
More dreaded whitelist errors! Essentially, an app is trying to do something it should not be allowed to do. You can see the logs here:
E Zygote : java.lang.IllegalStateException: Signature|privileged permissions not in privapp-permissions whitelist: {com.android.systemui: android.permission.NAVIGATION_EDITOR, org.omnirom.omnistyle: android.permission.CHANGE_OVERLAY_PACKAGES, com …
So, you built a rom, and something went wrong. It's stuck at the boot logo, or it does boot up, but doesn't do "xyz" action, or it crashes right after you get to the home screen. You've played this game before, you pull logs, and all you can see is …

To God be the glory, I finally finished a XA2 Ultra build of Resurrection Remix! It's Resurrection Remix, Pie flavored! You can check it out on XDA if you would like, but here is my post …

So it's been a rough start for me, stepping into the modern world with a modern phone that has a/b partitioning and was Android 8.0+. I've built dozens of roms for dozens of phones, some that were even unsupported, and to God …
A while back I switched my LG Watch Urbane (bass) from Android Wear to AsteroidOS. My initial reaction was really positive, but I wanted to come back to post later on how the long term use was going. Truth is, it's great!
Don't get me wrong, Android Wear had some …
Well, at least attempting to. Unfortunately it didn't end very well. A friend of mine broke the glass screen of their Samsung Galaxy Note 9. They have a warranty on it, but they already broke the screen once, and now they would have to pay several hundred dollars to have …
