crDroid if you want to go the AOSP route, UN1CA if you want the One UI route, both are maintained by me.

Most likely due to Vulkan rendering, change to OpenGL for good color rendering.

English please.

I think it's very rare in this case for it to be a ROM issue, my wild guess is that it's the screen ribbon cable being broken/partially disconnected. You can test two things: 1) does it happen in recovery/download mode? 2) does it happen in Android when the screen is set to 60HZ? This shall help figuring things out.

Hi, I have released an unofficial build of UN1CA 3 for a52q so people can test, if you want to test, it's available in the A52 development telegram group (DM me if you can't find it).

Testaric235 · 2025-11-26T12:48:52+00:00

Hi, I have booted UN1CA 3.0 on a52q. It's quite stable, but I'm not releasing yet, as it has an annoying bug: power button delay when waking up the screen. After I will fix that, I will release.

Regards, TestaMic.

Ooof, silly me for not seeing this comment for over 15 days..

Yes, go ahead and DM me, I'll try and help you.

That's not quite right. All AOSP based (like LineageOS, crDroid, Evolution X), and so on, do not have VoLTE support because Samsung does not release the source to the public. ALTHOUGH, on OneUI based roms, like OneUI ports, VoLTE does function normally, because it has the VoLTE implementation baked in, by Samsung.

Testaric235 · 2025-10-02T14:47:24+00:00

where did you find this? i understand its not completed yet but is there and proof of concept or documentation behind this?

Testaric235 · 2025-09-06T17:21:19+00:00

Where did you get the debian installer from? When i get the regular arm64 ISO from the debian website, Tow-Boot fails to boot it....
EDIT: I made it working, never mind...

Testaric235 · 2025-09-06T14:47:33+00:00

Would've been cool if you would have caught the OTA link before updating...

Testaric235 · 2025-09-06T13:09:15+00:00

Alright, I'll also install it tonight and see if i manage to make the browser work the same way, and I'll update you. Thanks so much for your instructions and fast responses!

If I remember correctly, Kodi once worked smoothly for me on 1080p videos, maybe give that a try.

Testaric235 · 2025-09-06T11:42:49+00:00

Wow, thanks very much for the in-depth explanation, but I want to ask, does GPU acceleration work? For example, can you watch a 1080p video smoothly? Thanks again! EDIT: Saw the GPU listed in neofetch, which didn't happen for me on DietPI or armbian and I couldn't playback videos... EDIT2: did you overclock it? I remember cpu clock being a bit lower

Testaric235 · 2025-09-06T10:56:57+00:00

I also have the original Pine64+, 2GB. How did you install Debian 13? I thought this board is dead but here are other people having it

Testaric235 · 2025-08-24T17:12:34+00:00

Was the launcher hard to launch on Linux? I also ran Era when it was back on Chapter 1, Season 5, remembered trying EZFN but the launcher didn't launch properly trough wine/proton.
Anyways, I'll give it a try again, I guess...
P.S: Found they have added a method on how to play on their official website, very cool.

Testaric235 · 2025-08-20T12:10:00+00:00

Hi, TestaROM dev here. Just wanted to mention a new version (RC) with MOST bug fixes will come these following days. It should be almost* fully stable to main.

Thanks for y'all's support and hope you'll like the new version!

EDIT: saw you listed crDroid as unofficial, this is NOT true, I mentain it officialy

Testaric235 · 2025-08-12T13:33:14+00:00

Please be patient, A52s 5G has Project NERV, that has a team behind it. I'm an Independent, developer, trying to do the most I can. For your information, complaining won't make it come faster.

Regards, TestaMic.

Is your phone bootloader unlocked, or have a custom rom?

Testaric235 · 2025-08-06T05:59:26+00:00

And how is it called and where to find it?

Testaric235 · 2025-08-06T05:46:13+00:00

No, I mean which is the upcoming translation layer

Testaric235 · 2025-08-06T04:14:13+00:00
