thor is sadly one of the few devices supported by DivestOS that *does* require TWRP.

DivestOS now runs on my Thor. Since the installation is different to other DivestOS-Installations, it should be explaied here more:
- No need for the DivestOS-Recovery; just use TWRP bundled with 1-Click-Unlock tool
- Place ROM on internal flash und install via TWRP (like LineageOS; normal wipe before install)
- Downgrade from LOS 16 without problems possible; tested

I lol'ed at myself. Anyway, so I got TWRP 3.0.2-0. I am wondering if I install this ROM, will I able to play Netflix? I know it doesn't support Widevine. But I just wonder.

So if I flash this ROM using TWRP and I don't like it, can I just restore it to my backup ROM?

Trying this Custom Rom out and it is very good. However not sure if it has anything to do with the rom but i cannot get Spotify to work, it just wont log in my account. Just says "Something went wrong, please try again later".

Do you think there will be any future updates for this OS for this device? And is there a way to add WideVine back to device, if i were to do it myself? Juggling wether to use this OS or Lineage OS. I think this OS is a bit faster, will see if it charges quicker too.

I have provided builds for this device every month since end of 2016. I fully plan to support this device (and others) as long as I can reasonably support the 14.1 branch.
Since TWRP is required in this case, you should in theory be able to extract the files from another ROM and adb push them into place:
Code:
vendor/lib/drm/libdrmwvmplugin.so
vendor/lib/mediadrm/libwvdrmengine.so
vendor/lib/libwvdrm_L3.so
vendor/lib/libwvm.so
vendor/lib/libWVStreamControlAPI_L3.so

Thanks dude. Didn't realise you have supported this device for so many years, very nice secure ROM.

Installed DivestOS again. Noticed it boots up alot faster than LineageOS 16, 28 secs compared to 57 secs for LineageOS 16. Also less memory usage. And noticed it got an update few days ago!

Hello DivestOS,
1 - Do you need to reparation internal memory with Clamor's script before flashing this rom ?
2 - Is it set to permissive like in the latest voron00's LineageOS release or to enforcing by default ?
3 - Can you update it via OTA ?
4 - Does it drain battery when the phone is switched off ?
Thanks

1. Yes for the 17.1 build, there is however a 16.0 and 15.1 build available that doesn't need repartitioning.
2. No, DivestOS is *always* enforcing. DivestOS will never ever release a build with permissive SELinux.
3. Yes, DivestOS offers OTA updates for every device since 2017/05/30.
4. When the phone is asleep, no. When the phone is powered off, no.
mako was my daily driver for all of 2019, it was a solid experience despite the age of the hardware.

I agree, this phone is amazing, never age ...
I got it working on my phone.
I used Clamor's script and everything went almost smooth but have two more questions:
1 - Is it normal that signature can't be verified when installing via twrp ?
2 - On first boot-up rom got stuck on divestos splash screen and didn't want to load entire OS...
I rebooted the phone and on second try it started without any problem and greeted with configuration screen, is that ok ?

1. It is not recommended to use TWRP with DivestOS, except for a select few devices. You are intended to use the DivestOS recovery.
2. That is expected, it is a known issue. It occurs due to the modem failing to start after the data partition is encrypted for the first time. The workaround is to wait 5 minutes on the very first boot, power it off, then reboot it. All should be OK after.
@voron00 Are you going to release LOS 17.1 (w/ March security patches) as well? Or 16.0 is a better option for mako in your opinion?

16.0 is better.

It loooks like @varon00 will continue to support only 16, will it impact divestos 17 releases ?
I'm not sure about @voron00 's reasoning to not make 17.1 builds.
But DivestOS 17.1, based on their sources has been fully functional by my standards for nearly a year now.

I redid everything again, used fastboot to flash recommended recovery and sideloaded rom from there again. The only downside are apps for banking that require ggle. Do you have any recommendation on that, should I go with open gapps ?
@kjsu0 please kindly read through the divestos.org website. Most of the questions you are asking are all already documented there.
DRM, such as Widevine, is not supported on DivestOS.
Root, such as Magisk, is not supported on DivestOS.
Runtime modification frameworks, such as Xposed, are not supported on DivestOS.
Google Apps, such as Open GApps, are not supported on DivestOS.
Any extra flashable ZIP modifications are not supported on DivestOS.
DivestOS has a strong focus on security, privacy, and freedom. Most of those things are not compatible with our ideals.
This looks like a great project, SkewedZeppelin.
I love the increased privacy focus and built-in OTA support.
I have a question about the custom hosts file. I know DivestOS doesn't recommend using root, but what if we prefer other options like AdAway to manage the hosts file instead?
I'm definitely going to flash DivestOS on the mako. Probably will go with 17.1 instead of the 18 build for now.
Thanks again for starting and maintaining this project!

Click to expand...

DivestOS includes a fairly extensive HOSTS file. Assuming you do not install (m)any proprietary apps and use Mull/Fenix/Bromite with uBlock Origin there should be no visible ads or telemetry phoning home.
As DivestOS does not support root, AdAway is incompatible.
If you want more domains blocked you can use DNS66, however it functions using a local VPN, so you won't be able to use any other VPN apps such as Orbot.
I flashed 17.1 a few hours ago. I did run into the splash screen first boot bug that kjsu0 encountered. I think this should be noted in the first post or on the DivestOS website so people don't get confused, but other than that it's working pretty good so far. Thanks for all your work, SkewedZeppelin!
I looked at the hosts file for DivestOS and I feel like there might be too many sources. I also prefer personalDNSfilter over DNS66 since it has CNAME uncloaking built-in. I guess I'll just use Adguard DNS for private DNS as an alternative.
Calling/data on the latest 18.1 build works thanks to a recent fix from @voron00!
18.1 should now be daily drivable.
@SkewedZeppelin - Could you add the following patch to your rom?
https://android-review.googlesource.com/c/platform/frameworks/base/+/147266/1/packages/SystemUI/src/com/android/systemui/statusbar/policy/DeadZone.java
I've recently experienced the dreaded navigaton bar deadzone issue as described here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/wip-fix-dead-navbar-workarounds-and-fixes.3243822/
Edit - Looks like the patch was added a long time ago to AOSP... I guess my mako is finally showing its age.
To anyone who's wondering - DivestOS is still being actively updated. Last update was July 30th.
Thanks to OP for supporting mako to this date. Never thought Android 11 will work this flawlessly in 2012 device.
Wondering if we can get A12 and Material YOU, but then again, it will have serious UI performance problems
Hello DivestOS:
First of all, thank you very much for still supporting Nexus 4 today. I read your post and I still don’t quite understand some points. I would like to ask:
1. What are the specific steps for "resized /system"?
2. After installing Divest OS, can I install other applications on it
at will? Such as: Facebook,Whatsapp.......
3. If it feels inappropriate, can I install another ROM freely?
Please forgive my ignorance, cos I just started to touch the flashing and knowing that Nexus 4 is still supported by community, so I want to try it
Thank you again!

Very nice, cool to see Android 11 on the ole Nexus 4.
However the lack of microG signature spoofing is a deal-breaker for me.

Currently using it on my kltedv, all good so far but haven't tested everything yet. Thanks for the work.
Hi,
It's my daily driver for the past few days and I'm really surprised by its fluidity, lightness and speed.
I recommend GS5 owners to test this ROM because it's worth it.
Thanks to the team DIVEST

I have not tried daily driving my klte, but in theory it should be better then stock and most ROMs.
Mainly due to the few included apps.
Very smooth Rom. Thank you to the developers

Noticed a battery drain. Will update after running placebo kernel with smartpack kernel auditor to check if the battery drain still persists.

Using a different kernel will dramatically reduce security.
Are you using a VPN? I've found they cause non-stop battery drain.
Any other long-running background apps?
Any spam in logcat?

The battery drain issue was from the new battery I bought from Ebay. The battery was not original. No, I'm not running VPN. Thanks for the ROM

How Stable is this ROM for our klte devices

How is it going on the kltedv variant 7 months on? I'm asking because I also have a kltedv which I'd like to test.
Is it getting A12/12.1?
Build for klteduos
Got this running on a klte a few days ago... It was my first time flashing anything onto any phone, no issues. Odin to flash the recommended lineage recovery and adb to sideload the latest klte build of divest 18.1.
Re some things mentioned in the OP:
-I havent had issues with USB yet, tho all I've used it for is charging my thick 7800mah battery which is running as good as it was on stock MM if not better ie. haven't had to charge it much
-haven't tried to mount an SD card yet but will be feeling pinched for space if its not reliable. sooner or later
-not encrypted by default, but only took a minute to enable and its way quicker than stock MM encryption ever was
-the only things that seem laggy so far is 1. the default camera app, and 2. sometimes need to tap twice on a toggle in various settings to get it to flip. I havent tweaked much of anything yet tho or tried many apps
This beautiful old beast (first phone i got, 8 yrs ago) is back in service as muh daily driver
...gotta say I'm impressed with divest and happy to say buh bye to google!
Hallo,

OrangeFox Recovery is one of the most popular custom recoveries, with amazing additional features, fixes and a host of supported devices.​- Warnings :
​ Your warranty is now void, or not... (i have no idea bruh)
・ I'm not responsible for bricked devices, thermonuclear war or alarm app fails.
・ If it's your first time or you're unexperienced with flashing ROMS, please do some search before flashing!
・ YOU are choosing to make these modifications, you're the only responsible guy for messing up if you do so.
- Informations :
- Was built on the 11th of September 2022.
- Maintained by kota. (me)
- Used Kernel : Here!
- What's broken ?
- The Status Bar can now be totally seen but doesn't totally fit.
- Vibration still doesn't work normally (there have been changes to it tho)
- Please report anything else if you do find an issue!
- Installation Guides :
- Notes :
A glitch may happen where booting it via fastboot makes touch doesn't work sometimes.
To fix that, i also provided a flashable zip via sideloading (tested on TWRP) that directly installs it.
- First way to install : (Casual way, if touch works okay | .img )
1 · Reboot into bootloader and boot OrangeFox by using this command : fastboot boot OrangeFox.img
2 · Once the Recovery boots up, go to 4th menu (3 lines), and on it, click "More".
3 · Then click More, and Flash Current OrangeFox Recovery, then swipe and reboot!
- Second way : (More tricky, but always works out fine | .zip )
1 · Reboot into Recovery Mode with TWRP installed.
2 · Prepare an ADB Session on your PC and add to it the .zip version of OrangeFox.
3 · Get into Sideload Mode and do this command on adb : adb sideload OrangeFox_Name_Example.zip
- You're now done with flashing!
- Download Links :
- OrangeFox Folder (ZIP + IMG version) : Here!
- End :
Well, here it is! Real working OrangeFox for Mi 11.
At first it was just a random idea that went threw my head two month ago.
Now it's a real thing, it was really time consuming and head scratching but it was all worth it!
Enjoy and have a nice day!
By kota.
Please note!
For the second flashing method, TWRP isn't really "required", it's more to assure that your recovery let's you sideload any unsigned packages. You should be able to flash from some recoveries such as Pixel Experience and ArrowOS recovery.
As for unsupported ones such as CherishOS, RiceDroid, etc... They'll probably throw an Error 21 when trying to sideload any unsigned packages. (in this case, Orangefox but could also be Magisk) For them, simply use TWRP.

The code to decrypt the partition is the same you had to put in to lock your phone. Say you have a pin code of 3926, just type 3926 to unlock the score from orangeFox

Hi, I'm currently on 19.1 and just found out about the discontinuation of support for this phone by Lineage OS.
First of all, thank you for your very appreciated work to keep this phone alive . Ssecondly, if I want to update is it enough to follow the update/ dirty flash procedure?
Thanks again

Hey, it should work if you want to upgrade from lineage 19. But keep in mind that if you have Gapps installed you will need to reflash them (the last version) before rebooting to system after update

Noticed something strange with this build. When I attempted to enable Zygisk on Magisk stable it would immediately fail to boot. I could only get it to work by using the latest canary. Flashed after clean-flashing April to both slots.

No issue here.
Tried replicating on 26.1 several times, works without issues for me.
I've used crDroid on my Mix 2 and I loved it. I'll be trying this for sure.
Question: I have a JP version of Pixel 7, that have Sony Felicia chip (for transport and payments). Will that still work with this Rom? I'm not talking about 'custom rom'/'root' checks, I'm talking about rom compatibility with the japanese version hardware. Thank you.,
new update
04/27
Finally installed the ROM and rooted with Magisk v26.1 by patching the init_boot file in the ROM .zip and flashing via fastboot. No issues with either the install or rooting. Restored the majority of my apps with Swift Backup and everything seems good to go so far.
First time using this ROM and I'm pretty impressed at the amount of customization and features it has. Reminds me a lot of the customization found in ROMs like Resurrection Remix which was a favorite ROM of mine on an earlier model Pixel phone. Only complaint is the amount of pre-installed apps that I could do without but just disabled/froze them via Titanium Backup's freeze feature. I do love that it comes pre-packaged with Kirisakura Raviantah kernel though since it's my favorite to-date and was planning on installing it anyway.
Thanks for the hard work @omariscal1019 and hope this becomes official eventually.
EDIT: One question... what is the best method for updating the ROM from the 4/19 to 4/27 build? Thanks in advance.
EDIT #2: Nevermind. Just booted into the bootloader and flash with 'fastboot update crdroid_panther_04_27.zip' without the -w flag to preserve my data and update went flawlessly as well. Thanks again.

You don't technically "need to manually press power button to continue" as it should after a few moments continue the boot process after a short delay regardless. If you want it to boot a few seconds faster, then you can hit the power button twice and essentially speed up this notification dismissal and resume the boot process. Once your phone is unlocked (rooting is not the reason why) you will always see this message during the boot process and it's 100% normal as @Bestiole222 already stated.
