Bug in TWRP 3.1.0-1 with Galaxy S5 SM-G900F (and others too) and previous releases when using GApps-Aroma zip-package #943
Comments
Any clue on this? |
Only TWRP version which does on the job (at least on my Galaxy S5 SM-G900F) is 2.8.4.0; Whatever happened to the other releases - the GApps Aroma package, which is the best in my opinion (fully customisable) does not work after 2.8.4.0 |
After the hang/reboot, try flashing it again. |
Hi CaptainThrowback,
I wonder what the problem is with the TWRP releases after 2.8.4.0, specially 3.x |
What I'm asking is, once you re-enter TWRP after it locks up, have you tried just flashing the GApps package again immediately? That seems to work on most other devices. |
With 2.8.4.0 re-entering TWRP (after it auto reboots) and flashing it again, works lets say most of the time (80-90%). Unfortunately with 3.1.0-1 there's no chance - the phone always hard freezes and there's no response to anything. :-( |
Unfortunately AROMA is deprecated, as the source hasn't been updated to be compatible with newer versions of Android, while the TWRP source is constantly being updated. It seems that unless AROMA source is updated soon, it will eventually be completely incompatible with newer versions of TWRP. Unfortunately there's not much we can do about that. |
Thanks for letting me know. I will try to open a ticket at the Github page for Aroma :-). Thanks for the feedback. |
I confirm that it also happens on S4 LTE-A GT-I9506 (ks01ltexx) under about same TWRP versions: |
Aroma issues are outside TWRP. |
Hi Devs,
it's necessary for me to use the latest TWRP Recovery (currently 3.1.0-1) to flash the current LineageOS to my Samsung Galaxy S5 SM-G900F cell phone. Releases prior 3.x all run into a status 7 installation error. After successfully flashing the current LineageOS to my cell phone, I want to apply the GApps-Aroma zip-package. I chose the Aroma package, because I want a graphical interface and the possibility to choose what to Install and what not. The problem/bug is the following:
1.) I need to flash TWRP 3.1.0-1 Recovery to install the main LineageOS package (the OS it-self)
2.) Then I need to rollback to TWRP 2.8.4.0 Recovery to install the GApps-Aroma zip-package
3.) After that I need to re-install(upgrade) to TWRP 3.1.0-1 Recovery, so that there are no further problems with the current LineageOS
That's very inconvenient to me and maybe to others as well. Took me quite a time to figure out, what the actual problem is. There seems to be a bug/problem in TWRP 3.1.0-1.
I would love to permanently have the TWRP 3.1.0.1 Recovery installed without having to go through the upper mentioned steps after every installation of a new LineageOS file.
Looking forward for a reply :-)
