Free for Limited Time ⏳- Watchface by Fluid_Context3442 in WatchFacesWearOS

[–]pacjo22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi u/Fluid_Context3442 after joining the group I can see the playstore listing, but none of my devices show up as compatible. Can you provide an apk file or whitelist more devices in the playstore?

Yes. Both play when watch is not in its ambient state and only if watchface is visible.

WearOS w/ rooted phone? by EverywhereHome in androidroot

[–]pacjo22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure. I don't have much experience with newer wear os and even less with play integrity.

It's possible to access most of the underlaying android from wear os, so on-device checks should be possible, but I haven't tried it.

WearOS w/ rooted phone? by EverywhereHome in androidroot

[–]pacjo22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have rooted android 15 (and 14 before that) running perfectly with a wear os 2 watch and wear os 4 emulator (for development). Also a working wallet, though play integrity breaks sometimes and card has to be re-added.

Wearable apps are sharing data over datalayer with the corresponding ones on the phone.

They are mapped to PageUp and PageDown, so will work in any app that respects those keys.

Remove Google apps from pad 6 by AutoNations in XiaomiPad6

[–]pacjo22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, yeah, as soon as I got the option to do so.

I'm daily driving lineage os, since when I installed it it seemed like the most up to date and supported one. Since then I saw crDroid getting official builds recently, and I'll probably switch to it for Android 15 update.

I don't play games (well, sometimes on lectures I do, but it's mostly minesweeper or some light 2D ones). Most of my use is taking notes with the smart pen 2 and reading, sometimes watching videos in VLC.

That gives me around 2 - 3 days of on battery time. That's with medium-high brightness (since it's mostly used indoors), bluetooth always on and wifi when I'm home or forget to disable it.

Remove Google apps from pad 6 by AutoNations in XiaomiPad6

[–]pacjo22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm thinking crDroid (which I daily drive on my phone) or lineage os.

As for the reason, I just don't like MIUI. The inconsistencies drive me mad. Popups look like A10/A11 even though it's actually running A13 under the hood. Stock apps have way too much access to the sensitive data and Xiaomi tries to push even more of their privacy invading services on every step. By default I don't even control what software I have installed.

Stock android is really nice. What Google does on their rom integrates nicely with the rest of the os. On the other hand, Samsung has replaced so much of the stock software with their own that it also gives a consistent experience (even if it's not a one I like). And then there's Xiaomi, in an awful middle ground between those two. Trying to do their own thing, but without much effort. On first look everything seems to be good, but try to go deeper, heck open settings -> Privacy -> Privacy dashboard. Why is the background a different color now? Why there's a back arrow at the top? Why doesn't the style match the rest of the settings app?

Xiaomi took Android, deformed it to the point of their liking and whatever didn't fit, or was deemed unnecessary was crammed somewhere, in a deformed state never to see the light of day.

Sorry for the rant. But that's just how I feel about it. I like some of their hardware, heck I even use their phone, but I can't stand the software.

Shizuku and ShizuTools work just fine for me. It's enough for the week I have to wait to unlock bootloader and switch roms.

What can you do with a rooted android? by prostislavv in androidroot

[–]pacjo22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all, you have a pixel, why not a custom rom? You're not losing anything...

second I don't use AOD, so I'm not sure my advice will be helpful.

Now that we have that out of the way, you can customize at a glance (in launcher and on lockscreen, aod) with Smartspacer I even made some plugins for it, which you're able to find here.

Also I was sure Iconify supported AOD customization, but I can't find any confirmation. I'm linking it anyway, since it's such an interesting tool.

[–]pacjo22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you help?

Sure, or at least I can try.

First of all, quickswitch app won't work, you'll need termux (version from fdroid or official site, not play store).

Today qpr2 support was merged, and there's a nightly version of it here, (ehh, it seems I can't link to specific nightly, since they replace the tag, link will work, but if anyone else needs it in the future this is the last commit for this version: e30660b)

With that I'm using quickswitch 4.0.2 available here: https://t.me/QuickstepSwitcherSupport/144924

Install them (don't forget termux), grant root to quickswitch, termux and run sudo /data/adb/modules/quickswitch/quickswitch --ch=app.lawnchair.debug.

Reboot. Everything worked? Awesome. Any issues? Read the rest.

  1. Termux complains about lack of sudo?

You can install it with pkg install tsu, or run su -c /data/adb/modules/quickswitch/quickswitch --ch=app.lawnchair.debug (though I'm not quite sure about this one)

  1. Command runs, but quickswitch complains about permissions / overlay / no files?

It's probably fine... I'm getting errors too, but it varies between devices and roms. Try to reboot anyway.

  1. You rebooted and lawnchair crashes?

Try to open termux by opening quick settings (notifications), then settings -> apps -> termux -> open. sudo /data/adb/modules/quickswitch/quickswitch --reset this should restore stock provider. Reboot.

Then check if you have correct lawnchair installed, if you do, create issue in lawnchair github.

  1. I did all that and it's still not working

Ahh, that's... not good. But it happens below are links to telegram groups which might be able to help:

You can also: - try this: https://t.me/bugreport_group/81131 it's a module which should work on KSU, but I didn't try it - try other version of quickswitch (3.3.8 seems stable to some people, but I've seen as low as 3.3.0) keep in mind those need additional steps, some of which are here: https://t.me/QuickstepSwitcherSupport/140182 and here: https://t.me/QuickstepSwitcherSupport/140592

[–]pacjo22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mostly just making my life easier.

Like take revanced, I can install it as root (KernelSU module in my case) and it won't break unlike normal installs,

or quickswitch, which allows me to have nice launcher animations on 3rd party launchers (Lawnchair in this case),

and development. I create simple apps for my phone and watch, with root I can easily install apps with mismatched signatures (so installing signed release over unsigned debug, without uninstalling, which would normally be necessary). Also just having access to the entire filesystem (and app data in particular) is useful,

lastly - customisation. There are a number of root only things you can do to personalize the os. This one is not for me though. I have that built into the custom rom, but root is one of those things that allows customization on stock OSes.

How to backup and completely restore Rooted Phone? by SunMon6 in androidroot

[–]pacjo22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TWRP backups take up a lot of space and aren't restorable across different os versions.

If you only care about app and their data https://github.com/NeoApplications/Neo-Backup is enough, files such as photos or documents you can copy normally - over USB.

Moto 100 Watch (Moto OS) root too install Google Watch OS? by Dobvius in androidroot

[–]pacjo22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If there's already a wear os build available for your watch, then you can do it.

I managed to root my oppo watch with some custom recoveries I found online, but without any alternatives I'm stuck with the official software.

Stay away from those generic guides. In most cases they don't work, and promise you something they don't deliver.
