so how did they wipe my phone? do you think they were smart enough to re-flash it?
or did they enter the passcode with too many wrong attempts and it erased all my data?

i got my phone back, it still had lineage on it, doesn't look like they reflashed it to stock android from google with gapps... paid them a 100$ for it...  with my screen cracked in the lower right side.

 

That was just a guess. Too bad about the damage but I'm glad you got it back at least.

thank you, but just wondering how they couldve bypassed the screen lock and wiped my data to get into the phone... must've been through a computer or too many wrong attempts at the screen lock?

Most likely recovery.

I still have the problem of distant subjects being out of focus with LOS (landscapes, etc), as others have already reported. I tried with different camera apps, all of them behave the same.

Is there a way to track the cause of this or a way to work around the problem?

Camera is all closed source blobs between the kernel driver and the camera app.   It spews out amazing amounts of debug information, but I have never been able to make sense of most of it.

 

So... probably not, unless we get really lucky.

I've gotten the stock keyboard driver to work with Lineage, mostly.  I was having an issue generating forward slash on QWERTY, but other FN combinations seem to work.  And the any-key-to-wakeup feature is not there.  But other than that it seems usable for a test.

 

@DieBruine and whoever else is having keyboard issues, can you please try this?  Make sure to backup your existing boot image so you can easily go back to it.

What's the purpose of the changes in the "Add keylogger" commit?

I have to say, I am curious now if there is a OpenGapps user with keyboard ghosting issues... 🙄

FWIW, I have no Gapps at all, and as mentioned before experience similar problems. Much more seldom, but it happens.

That was for debugging the keyboard issue, you can read about it a page or two back.

[dicer 36]

I just had the case again where the physical keyboard does not react to any key presses anymore. This happens every couple of weeks (more or less) and it basically means I can't type anything anymore. Touchscreen and the OS keep working fine, but nothing from the keyboard.

Usually I notice when I get the phone out of my pocket and it doesn't react anymore, but this time it was the first time it happened to me while I was typing. No idea what I hit, but it just stopped working. So I went to my computer and took a adb logcat.

I'm not posting the full log here cause it is way to chatty and I don't want to remove all the personal stuff from it (@tdm get in touch if you want the full log). What I see is the following though when I press a button now:

I didn't look at the watch when it happened, but the LightsService error did not happen all day until right around the time it stopped working. That's how I assume it stopped working around these log entries:

The keyboard is not completely gone though! I can still press Caps and the little LED will light up. This is what I get in the log when pressing the Caps button:

Now the weird part: While I was debugging this, the keyboard just started working again!

I guess it was hanging (software wise)? No idea why though... I still get the LightsService Error and this when I press a key now (which works):

09-27 23:24:52.927   629   629 I chatty  : uid=1000(system) /system/bin/surfaceflinger identical 14 lines

No idea what to make of this, but maybe one of the devs can make sense of this.

sorry, can i reflash the phone with my up to date lineage, with the same up to date lineage ?  i want to completely wipe the phone ,, my battery life is unbearable after i got it back. 
do i just need to do the same exact steps in the lineageOS directions ?

I tried it for 10 minutes and it looked responsive to me but I couldn't figure out how to set it to QWERTZ so I went back to the Lineage bootloader.

If I install Lineage, can I still use fingerprint reader and GooglePay?

@Jordi
Did you test this on stock? I am beginning to think this might be a hardware fault.

Certainly the fingerprint reader works.

 

Google Pay will not work by default.  Other users you can make it work by using magisk hide.  But I cannot help with that, I don't use magisk.

This is not due to a hardware defect. At least, not in general. The issue in my case is the fact that the software chooses an aperture of f/1.8. An this seems to be almost like a default. For those who don't know what this does, it limits the depth of field. If you work that out in distance, only those objects that are between 2.5m~2.8m/7.5f-7.9f will be in sharp focus. This is just an example. Focal length and sensor size matter a lot. But in general, f/1.8 limits DoF a lot!
That being said, I have an example which makes me think there is a hardware issue with the lens. This picture was taken with an aperture of f/1.8. If you look closely you see that the left 40% of the picture is sharp all the way. The right 50~60% is not. Take a look at the stones on the ground. Weird huh!? I just hope I get a new or 100% refurbished phone back. BTW, pictures were taken with LoS.

And @tdm I flashed my son's phone. The Ms will be next this evening :).

And then ?
How can I backup actual boot image ?

Is you lens clean? Also under the lens protector? I have condensation fogging the lens from carrying the phone in the pocket of my trousers :-(

I will remove the lens protection when I find the time, and see what can be done against moisture. The Pro1 is my first phone that has trouble with moisture getting into the camera compartment ...

[DieBruine 397]

Nope, it was crystal clear. Do not let get any amount of moisture get near the Pro1. It is very prone to damage-by-moisture.
I think my lenses were either not aligned properly or just shifted slightly. That in combination with the f/1.8 aperture. Of which I am not sure if it's a LoS or general algorithm issue.

[daniel.schaaaf 177]

@tdm Would you be interested in enabling write access to the external SD-card? Apparently this can be done easily by editing PublicVolume.cpp: https://www.reddit.com/r/LineageOS/comments/gr8ubl/how_about_patching_in_sdcard_write_access/

There are quite a few apps for power-users that would benefit greatly from write access.
