[XT1900-7] No media audio and stuttering video after LineageOS install - Moto X4 Questions & Answers

Yesterday, I tried to install LineageOS 15.1-nightly, but missed the need for the copy-partion.zip, resulting in an unresponsive phone. With support by people in the LOS IRC channel, I managed to blankflash the phone and redo the install, this time with copy-partition.zip. I decided against rooting or installing GApps, and the phone booted perfectly fine.
Today, after installing some apps, I noticed that media audio will not play (Notifications and ringtones work, tho.) and video playback is extremely sluggish/stuttering, no matter whether it's youtube or a video I recorded myself.
While I didn't find anything similar for the X4, I found threads with similar issues for other phones that pointed towards bad/wrong firmware.
Could this be a lingering results from the blankflash?
If so, how to best fix it? Is there a way to reflash with stock firmware? (I looked at threads on this, but was overwhelmed with the variety of fimware versions and unsure which would be the correct one for my phone.)
As you can probably tell, I'm not terribly well-versed in this, so any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi, i am in the same situation like you right now. No Sound and very low FPS at Sound/Video playback.
First i installed LineageOS15.1 without the copy-partitions.zip.
After a reboot, my device was bricked but with the blankflash.zip i was able to repair my Motox4 and boot into twrp-recovery.
In TWRP I successfully installed the copy-partitions.zip and LineageOS15.1.
LineageOS seems to work really nice EXCEPT of Sound/Video playback. No Sound and very low FPS (Youtube Videos in Stock browser, Recorded Videos, etc.)
I Also tried different LineageOS15.1 and 16.0 versions including the newest LineageOS16.0 (lineage-16.0-20190312-nightly-payton-signed.zip) but the issue still exists.
Maybe someone has a clue what we could try to do Thank you

Buggy Phone Buddies!!! :highfive:

Exact same probleme here.
Moto x4 paython, XT1900-7.
blankflash was needed since the lineageos wiki did not mention the copy-partitions.zip.
Symptoms are: No sound (and very slow progressbar), low FPS for videos.
Right now my phone is garbage.

OK, I have it working now.
The solution was to install a stock android version or android one (I used android one).
After installing stock android like this:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x4/how-to/guide-how-to-flash-official-factory-t3808348
flash lineageos (using copy-partitions.zip again!).

Oh, cool, I will try that!
Which version of the x4 do you have? Also the -7? If so which firmware did you use? (Looking through the dozen pretty cryptic links in that stock firmware page has me worried about picking the wrong one.)

I don't think that failure of flashing copy-partitions has that result. I haven't flashed copy partitions since returning to stock and applying ROMs after that... and my flashes all come out fine. Perhaps something else is happening. But yes, when in question, always flash back to stock. Then try again.

Ok, Update:
Today I flashed the Stock Rom and tested a random youtube video in chrome: Video playback and Audio worked fine.
I then flashed the current Lineage 16 nightly and tested it again: Same problem. I tried a youtube video, a downloaded mp4 video and a downloaded flac audio file, they all had no audio and the videos were very slow and stuttery. Youtube ****ery happened both in the default browser (I'm guessing Chrome or something?) and a current Firefox Klar I installed.
Additional weirdness: I also tried youtube playback on Torbrowser, where I think it falls back on HTML5 video or something, AND THERE IT WORKS!!!
Audio plays and Video playback is nice and smooth.
I ... don't get it.
Help?!?

I noticed the same thing yesterday with my xt1900-1. Video playback with chrome gas black lines and video appears to stutter. I tried the default browser and it appeared to be better. I'm currently using the 6/12nightly of lineage

Some more testing also showed additional wonkiness: Audio also doesn't work when using making a call.
Which ... makes it a but of a dealbreaker, tbh. :/

I had the same problem after installing LOS16.
New X4 1900-7 (Stock ROM) as described on the Lineage website installed the LOS16
(without "copy-partitions-payton.zip").
After booting, the smartphone was dead
Then as described here the smartphone repaired.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=77847374&postcount=44
Then install the "copy-partitions-payton.zip" and install LOS16.
After the boot was no sound when calling or playing videos.
The videos were also played very stuttering.
I then installed the Stock ROM as described here.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x4/how-to/guide-how-to-flash-official-factory-t3808348
I used Stock Rom from here:
https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/payton/official/
Stock ROM: XT1900-7_PAYTON_RETEU_DS_9.0_PPWS29.69-37-2_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip
I did not use the flash-all.sh. I do everything step by step.
After the start of the Stock ROM OS, I checked call and videos.
The function was correct.
Then I reinstalled LOS16.
I proceed exactly as described here. (GAPS installation skipped).
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NWOBa88eJRs
Now the sound works in calls and videoas or MP3 files.
The smartphone works correctly so far,
only FM radio app does not work.
I have not found a solution yet.

Help with camera on stock .207 ROM.

I was looking for a way to boost sound in stock ROM to be great just like on 4.4 and and 5.1, I've flashed a dozen zip files with no enhancements at all until I decided to replace the snd_soc_msm_2x stock file and changed with the file but from a 4.4 ROM, results were great and I gained about 70% more louder sound. No problems until when i tried to record videos using the camera app,it gives me an unknown error and the video stops. Tested with 3rd party camera apps and got the same error. I know this bug is caused by the different sound file cause when I put the stock file video recording begin working again, can someone help solve this issue without returning back to the stock file? Maybe a line is causing conflict I don't really know.
snd_soc_msm_2x is a binary file.
It is made in accordance to the ROM version it should reside in.
Breaking the law of how things work, i mean, like using another version of binary for another version of Android is not a really practical way.
In other words, no, no one can do anything about that unfortunately.

All media lags on phone, but not in browser

It's strange. I'm a frequent flasher of all the phones I have ever had and the Mi Mix is no different. I like flashing and customize it to what I want. However, I came over a strange problem. Going from AICP -> Epic Rom -> (here is where I detected the problem) Resurrection Remix -> Lineage OS and flashing kernels, it doesn't seem possible to play any media files what so ever. I downloaded a random MP3 file to the phone and it lags from 0:00 - 0:01 without playing any audio. The same goes for videos on Facebook and YouTube (not in browser, but in app). I've come across this problem one time earlier, but didn't manage to figure out what it was.
Does anyone have any clue on what this can be or how to fix it?

Seen some of bug reports about that issue in RR thread and so on. Just pick whatever you were comfortable with and flash it unless your issue gets confirmed by the RR dev and to gets fixed(..if that issue still remaining).

The weird thing is that this occurred even after having done a complete wipe on the phone.
Solution to it: However, flashing magisk + Dolby Audio Lib fixed the issue on RR (it worked on Epic).

Hey. I am having the same issue. Please can you explain this to me "flashing magisk + Dolby Audio Lib". I dont know wha it means.
I am new to custom roms. I recently installed LineageOS 14.1 to my Xiaomi Mi 5S.
Tahnks to hsss1231
Solution:
I found a way to solve it.
1. root mi 5s
2. download 'buildprop' from play store
3. Probably the first 'audio.deep_buffer.media' in 'AUDIO' is 'True'
4. Change 'True' to 'False'
then the problem is solved.
I am on the latest xiaomi eu rom(Nougat Beta Rom).No Problems with Media,no lags nothing.
no matter what rom im on, when i play mobile legend, its always lagging..
Hey everyone this worked perfectly. Thankyou all so much.

Which Dolby audio lib? I have mix 2 and same issue. Though I used the build prop fix and this still occurs just in reverse (ie in the browser not the app).

NO DATA LOSS - NO NEED TO CHANGE ROM - NO NEED FOR ALTERING PROP FILE
You need to have a custom recovery (TWRP etc.)
1. Download the latest firmware (or anyone you like) from the link. https://basketbuild.com/devs/yshalsa...obal/capricorn
2. Flash it using custom recovery. THATS IT!
This does not effect your current rom it only changes some files (as you can guess grom the size of file)

[Discussion] Resurrection Remix 7 for Hammerhead (Android 9 Pie)

Hello everyone. I am opening this thread for the sake of convenience of us users of this ROM so that we stop hijacking the Oreo version thread and have a "clean" place where we can discuss about our experience with this great ROM. So I suggest anything regarding this ROM to be posted here!
You can find the official builds here: https://get.resurrectionremix.com/?dir=hammerhead
DISCLAIMER: I am by no means a developer or maintainer of this ROM, so this cannot be considered an official support thread, just conversation, plain and simple! Moderators can close this thread as soon as an official support thread opens.
Cheers!
I just installed the rom,came from stock. My first impressions are:
-It took 2 reboots to get the camera working. Installed google camera app since the integrated one doesnt show up on app drawer(you can access it from lockscreen though) and it seems to work kinda bad(picture goes black on it sometimes).
-It runs a bit hotter than stock rom. It might be just me though,I have opened the phone a few times to fix the power button which seems to get stuck for me once in a while.
-The default DPI doesn't seem right,everything looks a little bit smaller than it does on stock rom. There is an option to change it though, I set mine to 380 and it looks about right.
I haven't found any other issues yet.
Another note,I think the rom fixed my notification led lol. It didn't work for me on stock rom for some reason.
Pretty good rom overall,I haven't faced any stability issues yet.
edit: Is there any way to lower the resolution?
I upgraded from RR's Oreo build. Before flashing I repartitioned the phone using the method described here and the even more detailed instructions posted by douguluskaien on page 12 of that thread. The flash went very smoothly and although the phone initially ran hot it cooled back to normal after a few hours of what was probably background processing. With the 1.5G system partition I was able to install the micro version of GAPPS. I've had that experience after flashing new ROMs on other phones as well. I also discovered the bundled camera doesn't work and installed Google Camera. After starting up Google Camera, the original camera worked also. I tried connecting bluetooth headphones, and even though I could pair the headset I couldn't get the phone to send audio - it just kept playing through the phone speaker. I also found the default font size a little small, but changing it to Large in the Font Size menu got it back to what seems like normal.
I have one major issue which I realize is not directly related to the ROM. A custom version of TWRP is required to support the non-standard partitions, and that version is based on TWRP 3.2.3 and doesn't support device encryption. Does anyone know if an updated TWRP will be available that will allow me to encrypt the phone and still do recovery-related stuff?
In summary, this is impressively well along for a build that's only been live for a couple of weeks. This isn't my daily driver so I don't need absolute stability, so this is plenty for me for now. I just won't leave the house with it until I can encrypt.
I've been using this ROM for about a month now as a daily driver, so here's my feedback:
ROM is very nice and smooth and feature rich (as expected for RR). I installed it with Opengapps nano, rooted with Magisk. It works very well with the Pixel launcher I grabbed from here.
Some drawbacks I noticed:
Battery life is rather bad. I get 1h30m SOT at best with very mild usage (mostly site browsing and a little bit of social apps and YT video watching) . Then again I am still using the 5yr old battery that came with the phone...
The phone runs very hot (too hot to hold!) after using it for some time. It cools down rather fast if you let it be for a while, though.
Sometimes the camera is crashing (the notorious "can't connect to camera" error). usually a reboot fixes this.
Sometimes it takes a while for the device to wake up after pressing the power button.
I got some soft reboots under device heavy load. Mostly I get them when using the Rocket player music app, and it tries to load a large music folder. Phone freezes, then soft reboots.
SElinux is set to permissive and the build is signed with test keys. Maybe the first thing is caused by the latter, I don't know really....
Overall, it is a good ROM with room for improvement. However, I am concerned about its maintenance status. No update since May 14, so I keep my fingers crossed.

I didn't flash this build so I don't know if it works or not. I have switched to a different ROM. However, could you elaborate? Do you come from another ROM? Did you dirty flash? Is your device repartitioned? Usually error 7 in TWRP means there's not enough system space...

I flashed this build this morning by dirty way
Unfortunately Bluetooth is not working
It can find the other devices but can not connect to them
1- How can I fix it?
2-How can I downgrade to previous build?

Thanks for the idea, I had just repartitioned, so I had format my entire phone, (before that i had taken the backup ), and I had successfully installed the rom, I got an strange issue of WIFI connectivity, as I am not able to connect to my wifi which is having Hidden SSID, but i am successfully connected with the hotspot from my another primary phone. i haven't tested the bluetooth yet.
I dirty flashed the new build this morning. Haven't tried bluetooth or camera yet, but Wifi is working fine. As usual, the phone heated up for about a half hour after the flash and then the temp dropped and stabilized. Battery life is not great, like the May build, and there is often a long delay responding to the power button, especially shortly after power-up, but the build seems pretty solid.
Casting isn't finding anything to cast to in the most recent build. Camera worked fine.
New build available (Aug 4) as seen at ROM's dl page.
Bluetooth pairing now working for me on last release
Hi installed this ROM in clean maner but i got intermitent issue with sim card. Not sure if it is only sim issue or reboot but phone ask my pin code.
Looks like @voidz777 is the maintainer for RR Pie as well:

okay so to fix this you will have to repartition your system.

Repartitioning is the fix to error 70 while flashing gapps as well as error 7.

Thank you for the tip, I followed the thread and was able to install RR 7 without any trouble. This might not be the right place to ask, but would you have any info on how to install SuperSU on RR 7, or is there perhaps another root method that we must use? Thanks in advance, I can't seem to find information on it anywhere and rather than continuing to bang my head against the wall I thought I'd ask.

Just ordered razer phone 2 looking for custom os instructions.

So from what i gathered TWRP doesnt work yet on the razer phone 2 and lineage os doesnt have a build for this phone yet i gotta ask what is available for modding razer and what is the step by step to make that happen. i seen some instructions but other than root there isnt much to do.

TWRP works just fine on this device. It's installed when you fastboot flash arter97 kernel and it works perfect. He just updated it to r10. Good luck!!
Edit: as far as ROMs look around in this forum you'll find a couple of different ones in the same section as arter97 :good:

Right now there really aren't any, although there are a few in development, such as AOSP. I think the initial high price, specialized hardware & relative unpopularity has not helped attract any serious development.
I've noticed that ROM development has decreased significantly in the last few years. I remember the days of the Samsung Galaxy Nexus & the HTC Evo 4G where it seemed as if there was a new ROM released every week. I think its because (a) recent Android operating systems are offering greater customization out of the box, & (b) with the new A/B partitioning scheme, it makes ROM development more difficult.
Cancel your order. Get your money back. This phone while it is awesome at gaming and has a great screen. The OS is ****ty to say the least. I have had more issues with it freezing up. Not wanting to download apps from the play store. Not allowing me to install apps that I have already downloaded on my device. Now it's showing up as the Asus Rog II. This phone is the biggest heaviest piece of **** I've ever had. I promise you if everyone knew the issues this phone has you couldn't give it away free.

Mine showed as in rog 2 the last time I reloaded the OS. It's because it searches for "phone 2" and randomly guesses. No biggie, just fix it in the settings. No issues here from playstore, if you do it's common on every Android phone and fixable by clearing the data from the app. Maybe you should reflash the stock firmware? I don't see why you would call this phone ****ty. It's basically running AOSP stock except some theming from Razer. I fixed some freezing issues by reseating the Sim and SD card that I have. This thing rocks, just saying.
I've cleared the play stores cache, data, and dalvic in every method imaginable. Even google play services. I've restored backups, flashed stock .imgs, and flashed the stock odex Ron and the deodexed rom. It doesn't start failing to install play store apps till after I initially install most the apps I normally use then a while later when I think of one I forgot I'll go and try to install. That's when it starts messing up. If I watch a video threw some websites built in player on the webpage I'm viewing... about 15 to 20 seconds into the video everything but sound freezes. And will not correct itself. I have to hold the power button till it reboots. Only videos I can watch without issue is from the YouTube app. It's ridiculous. I've unlocked, rooted, and crack flashed tons of roms on all of my pixel and Nexus devices without any issue besides the random freeze. Which can be quickly fixed by toggling the screen on and off. This **** is ridiculous. So over this phone.
matt that might be just you i havent experienced any issues with this phone whatsoever.
"I think its because (a) recent Android operating systems are offering greater customization out of the box, & (b) with the new A/B partitioning scheme, it makes ROM development more difficult."
can you provide more info on this A/B partition? id love to see what customizable stuff i can do with this.

The freezing is due to a bug in Google Chrome. All you have to do to fix this issue is roll back the app version to 72 because version 76 doesn't work on our RP2.
Edit: uncheck auto update
Only freeze I had so far was with the infamous switch switch to the tele lens. Not a single other issue with software.
Other question, if you put the display at 120hz, and you scroll something, does it 'feel' like your finger sticks to text/icons?
I mean, is there no delay like you normally would have at 60hz?
On the Oneplus 7 Pro the 90hz is already a big improvement (less delay) but 120 should really be kickass... anyone?

Take this with a grain of salt, as I just got the RP2, but its the most responsive, "sticky" feeling Android phone I've used. 120hz is like night and day to me.
On a related note, Firefox Fenix with webrender enabled feels significantly more responsive than Chromium atm, as it seemingly renders the whole page instead of stuttering as you scroll like Chrome.

So are you on the global version? If so let it update to MR2 and fastboot flash boot arter97 r12 and you'll be just fine.
Which version are you running then to get stuck on boot logo?
Edit: if you want to stay on MR1 then flash arter97 r11
i tried updating to mr2 but says installation failed.
all i do is
faatboot flash boot kernal.img?
I just rooted MR2 to show you. It took me less than 5 minutes to do the whole process of fastboot flashing kernel booting straight into TWRP recovery which is included then installing magisk immediately rebooting into system and updated magisk. Done

My only question is, which version zip of magisk did you use in TWRP to flash? 20 or the latest beta? I'm rooted now with a modded boot.img that someone else used the canary/latest beta. Just don't want to screw myself and end up having to flash mr1 again then taking the update.

Everything is working fine from what I know been using it for a week. I think restarting and turning off takes a while though. That's what I've seen
Ok great but the download link doesn't work.
Fixed
Great thanks it's working now..
It doesn't looks like we have the same version of the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite. On my European SM-P910; I already tried both of you roms and it's always a boot loop. I tried different version of the stock rom before flash (XAR) and with blank vbmeta.tar with factory reset or/and cache but it never works for me. Like the other guy for the AOSP I go back to stock.
S Pen Functionality
Hello,
I'm new so please bear with me for this question. Do S Pen functions remain after installing lineageos? I got the device yesterday and I find it to be not as snappy as I'd like.

You guyz are lucky. There's no development for Tab s6.
Can you make a microg version?
Greetings!
I successfully managed to install the lineage rom on my SM-P610. Initially i faced infinite boot-loop even after doing a factory reset in the recovery. After some experiments, i made it work. Heres what is did to get it work.
1. First, unlock and root your device. Use the method mentioned in the other xda thread. It works.
2. Keep your rooted boot.img safe.
3. Download the lineage os tar from the thread.
4. Using 7-zip, open the tar package and delete the included boot.img fiile,
5. Replace the boot.img with the rooted boot.img obtained from the first step.
6. Flash the modded lineage package with Odin 3.14.1-3b patched under AP (do not check the re-partition in ODIN).
7. After reboot, boot into recovery and do a factory reset.
8. After a couple of reboots, Lineage logo should appear
Will write what works and what doesn't in my next post.
Thanks to @Awesomeslayerg for porting Lineage OS and AOSP to Tab s6 lite. It is really good to see a snappy lineage ROM for the device. Good Work! :highfive:
Here is the list what works and what doesn't.
The ROM is comparatively faster and snappy although the Geekbench results are identical with the stock rom. The reboot time is at par with the stock and the rom is stable. No random reboots or app crashes whatsoever.
Here are the stuff that works
Spen with pressure sensitivity works. Checked with Penup and bamboo paper app.
Can use SD card as primary storage but it is quite buggy. The apps on the SD card always crashes.
Battery backup is way better compared to stock.
Widevine is L1. Netflix HD content playback works.
Dual stereo speakers works.
Double tap to wake works as well
Comes with minimal gapps
All Bluetooth accessories work.
cts profile verification in magisk is "true".
Here is what doesn't work (or might be buggy).
The mouse pointer rather than the dot on the screen. Not sure whether there is a workaround
Magnetic flip cover doesn't work
GPS doesn't seem to work.
Cannot format SD card and use it as a portable media. upon formatting, it always shows "corrupted".
Camera is basic.
Hope you will find this info helpful.

Thanks alot will add this to the list
Thanks again to @Awesomeslayerg for making this rom. Here is a couple of points from my experience.
I flashed from linux using heimdall, which may be why my experience was different than @gauthamrgramalingam.
To flash I just followed the directions and, unlocked the bootloader, went to download mode a flashed. I didn't need to do all the extra steps that @gauthamrgramalingam listed. I did have to factory reset 2 times though, once from the bootloader and once from in lineage. Here are the things I've noticed:
1. Wifi doesn't seem to be working on 5g and seems to have some disconnects, also seems like I can't connect on lower bands of 2.4g, like channel 1.
2. GPS works great for me, no issues
3. Screen brightness, this is hard to confirm, but it at least SEEMS dimmer than stock firmware. I tried adjusting with the treble settings but that didn't seem to do anything.
4. netflix doesn't play videos for me at all. in info, it does show wildvine L1 or w/e and says it'll play HD but when I play a video I just get a generic error and it never plays. I've reset and reinstalled netflix to no avail.
5. SD card is weird, if I format it as portable, I run into the same issues that have been discussed, however if I format it as "phone storage" it seems to work somewhat. Can't seem to move apps to it, but I can put other files on it. Not sure whats going on.
Anyways, thanks again, I thought i would give my feedback to see if it helps.

5ghz wifi works fine for me. I wont br able to fix these issues sadly as i dont have time to research and fix. To be honest i just learned how to build a kernel from samsungs sources. But thanks for the feedback

I forgot to ask, does this have root? because I was trying to do some debugging on the issues but I can't seem to get a root shell in adb.
Messing with it more, couple updates:
1. wifi 5g confirmed working.
2. netflix still not working at least for me.
Magnetic cover, might be due to SELINUX. I see this in the adb debug:
kworker/5:2: type=1400 audit(0.0:2321): avc: denied { open } for path="/sys/devices/virtual/sec/sec_key/hall_detect" dev="sysfs" ino=45321 scontext=u:r:kernel:s0 tcontext=ubject_r:sysfs:s0 tclass=file permissive=0
the magnetic cover might use the hall sensor, but not sure. There is another sensor that is getting AVC denied as well. Worth a look.
