Notch Hack won't install
-
@muskist It would be helpful to see the original messages, e.g. with a screenshot. Was there a question about the root-password?
Alternatively you can use the Lomiri Plus Essentials from the Ambot Installer from the Openstore. With that app you also have support for notches/rounded corners ans so on. -
@kristatos
Thanks for your reply!Ambot Installer won't work either - ("Lomiri Plus Essentials cannot be installed...")
The script stops when run as root and demands to be run as phablet.

I'm running 24.04-1.2 stable.
-
@muskist So the script is running fine and has already downloaded the missing packages. After that, it fails because of missing free space on your device. What does "df -h" show about your space?
-
I have the same result!
-
@Alex25 For aligning the menu bar with the corners and notches, there’s an app that works quite well:

It works perfectly on my Redmi Note 9S.
-
@stanwood This did the trick. Thanks. Probably will help OP as well.
-
Sadly Kugi's Ambot Installer doesn't work either - see my above post.

I added messages to apply-notch-hax.sh in order to see how far it runs. The last message is given before the script tries to run
sudo apt update. Therefore I thinkaptis the problem. -
@muskist No, there is no space left, your root-filesystem ("/") is 100% in use, and that's why apt update and/or apt install fails. But I don't know why your root-fs is so small, on my Volla22 it's 7,1G and 2,9G are used, so there is enough space for thing like that.
AFAIK the porter of your device has to declare the size of the filesystems. -
@muskist Try reflashing. Ambot Installer also needs enough space for the packages to installer successfully. I think the notch hack filled up your root when it used apt.
-
@muskist I had the same problem. I suspect an incomplete install procedure when upgrading from 16.04 to 20.04 because of a boot problem with thr OP6T.
I had to reinstall completely so it reformatted. Note that you'll lose all your data.
-
Note that you'll lose all your data.
Did you try first to reinstall without erasing user data, like installer allows to do ?

@kugiigi
Thanks for your reply!After refleshing I have gained 52 MB on /

Maybe another FP4-user can check on his device if the root-filesystem is really only 2.9G. It seems to me very small and on my Volla22 it's more than the double of it.
