Thanks! I followed the wiki with fastboot and the neutron.img. I installed Magisk and can install apps via adb, however when I try to do adb shell su, it says permission denied.

techy What did you do exactly? Did you try just reflashing one of the ROMs I posted in my [Login to see the link]?
0x7 Run adb shell
then run su
You should get a popup from the magisk app to allow shell root permission. You can also go into the magisk app and allow shell to have root access (once you have run su in adb shell).

techy [Login to see the link] are my keymap files from system/usr/keylayout I changed the favorites key and the quick dial key.
Thanks this worked!
I noticed after I used the neutron.img, my keyboard app is now called 12Key-Keyboard, is there a way to get the original T9 keyboard app and set that as the default keyboard?
Also, I installed the vMouse2. One thing I haven't been able to figure out how to do is "Swipe Up", when I receive calls on WhatsApp, it says I need to swipe up in order to answer.
Thanks in advance

Is there a way to change one of the apps on the home launcher (I removed the browser so now I have a empty space)?
I unpacked the apk Launcher3 and found the xml file that lists the packages to display, I changed it and repacked, but installing it isn't working. I also tried to replace Launcher3.apk in system/priv-app/Launcher3
using FX with root r/w but it wouldn't copy. I don't really know what I'm doing, any help?

lgexalter1 I thought your keys aren't working?
Usedadb shell monkey -p com.jasonkung.launcher3 1
to launch my launcher (launcher<3) and used scrcpy.

XanderXF Im trying to do the same thing, so far all ive done is just changed the apps package name to the one I deleted or one of the extra ones in the arrays.xml. Can you send me the stock launcher3 from your phone [Login to see the link]? (Im using the Tracfone variant and I just want to see if there are differences)
sdmde Can you explain? I have pulled launcher3, uninstalled the system/priv-app/launcher3 and am currently running my stock launcher3 as a data/app. It works fine after being installed as a data app. I am trying to just change icons located in res/drawable-mdpi/ , I have a new icon with the same resolution and same name and I replaced the original icon png. But when i build and install the apk it just crashes...
darth m trying to do the same thing, so far all ive done is just changed the apps package name to the one I deleted or one of the extra ones in the arrays.xml
Did that work? What's easiest way to change the package name?
I also uninstalled stock Launcher3, then was able to install my edited version but it kept crashing

I've been working with [Login to see the link] and [Login to see the link] and we made a program that automatically boots your phone to fastboot (I did the easy part, its mainly their work). Just make sure you have mtk drivers.
Instructions:
- Download AutoBooter.exe
- Open it, and plug in your phone
Enjoy!

techy im still not sure why the matrix file worked. And i still cant get the mtk file to work.
[Login to see the link] how can i use the chmod command that you've referenced?

lgexalter1 I was wondering about that too, however, it says 0 by The Matrix file too and that one worked so I assumed it was nothing.
Regardless, what do you think is the issue?
