      @user You only need to use 4-core if you experiencing boot loops. If you have a damaged CPU cluster than the phone wont even boot TWRP with 8 cores. If that works, just use 8 cores always.

        @Flohack Thanks for that info, I'll keep to 8 core for now in that case and reflash 7.1.2 and try again

        just screw it.

          @user For posterity:

          I was using lineageOS prior to this, there was an issue flashing back to android. namely, mke2fs failed because unimplemented ext2 function while setting up superblock

          quick google search said I need to go into the flash-all.sh and edit it.

          I had to change the last line from fastboot update -w <image.zip> to fastboot update <image.zip>

          the -w flag is to wipe userdata and cache.

          So far, the image seems to be flashing without issues.

          just screw it.

            @Flohack Ok, I'm having a problem. I thought I'd go back and reflash android and start from scratch, thinking that maybe that might be the hangup with camera. So, I did, successfully, several times. Android runs fine. Then I enable usb debugging and wipe dalvick, data, and cache. But every time I use the halium-install script after that, I get this:

            passwd: password updated successfully
            I: Shrinking images
            e2fsck 1.44.1 (24-Mar-2018)
            resize2fs 1.44.1 (24-Mar-2018)
            Resizing the filesystem on .halium-install-imgs.uRLbP/system.img to 48434 (4k) blocks.
            Begin pass 2 (max = 967)

            Begin pass 3 (max = 2)
            Scanning inode table resize2fs: No space left on device while trying to resize .halium-install-imgs.uRLbP/system.img
            Please run 'e2fsck -fy .halium-install-imgs.uRLbP/system.img' to fix the filesystem
            after the aborted resize operation.
            I: Cleaning up

            Any help on what I can do to fix this and re-install UT?

                @Flohack No, this is regarding the file system on the phone. I had libertine on it. could that have changed the file system?

                  @Flohack when I do e2fsck on it, it tells me its not an ext2 file system.

                  I don't get it. I completely wiped the device and re-installed android and it did the same again.

                    @rocket2nfinity It has nothing to do with the device, the preparation fails on your local PC. halium-install is a bit stupid sometimes. Try to run it as root maybe. Also reboot can help to clean up the mounted images that are still in your temp area ^^

                      @Flohack No, it's definitely something not right with the phone. Just reflashed android and it now says:

                        @rocket2nfinity Sorry no idea right now. Though I saw this error from above somewhere I forgot what was the fix ^^

                          Ok guys camera is now clear why it would not work: There are still beta packages that are not in the normal rootfs. So that one is only for people who want to fiddle a bit with the console. But the result is rewarding. Shall I link the description here: https://pad.ubports.com/p/InstallGStreamerCamera

                          I managed to get back to full working camera with that ^^

                            @Flohack Oh and I forgot it needs a system.img update as well... I will upload a new system.img in a minute....

                              try going into the flash-all.sh script and take out the -w flag on the last command then run it again?

                              just screw it.

                                Can someone take a look at their phone's file structure and tell me what their drive is formatted to - especially system?

                                The problem seems to be with Android developer tools not functioning properly. Before I try it again with the updated tools, just want to make sure my drive is roughly the right sizes and formats (ext2 for instance)

                                  @rocket2nfinity It is ext4 what I could see. Doesn't the flash_all.sh script create the partition table? If I don't remember it wrong.

                                      I am now on 8 coress and 64bit ^^ seems to be fine. Camera though works only for pictures, no video recording so far. But still amazing pictures ^^

                                      I will fix Bluetooth next....

                                          just tested camera, works well. no issues.

                                          just screw it.

                                            I can make calls, but audio doesn't seem to be getting transferred. No sound on either device when i phone.

                                            The selfie cam works but the image appears distorted. not a big issue.

                                            There doesn't seem to be any integration for the fingerprint reader as well.

                                            just screw it.
