Hello everyone, I’m new here so forgive me if I am not posting in the right place.
I recently migrated from CalyxOS (Calyx Team is putting updates on hiatus during a restructuring) to iodeOS on my Pixel 6a using the Linux Iode installer. I relocked the bootloader, and restored 2 backups from seedvault. One backup in the main profile, the other in the work profile. I checked the “restore system settings” box in both seedvault restores.
I installed Insular from F-Droid to get the work profile, as I like keeping my FOSS and proprietary apps separate. After restoring my seedvault backup, having the profile off for a while, then activating the work profile to check on an app, iode shows the Android “restarting” screen with the little grey loading circle, then turns off. When I turn the phone back on, the work profile is turned on and I can access it again. However, if I turn the work profile back off again, the same thing will happen. It should be worth noting I also activated the private profile, but have no installed anything to it as of time of writing.
I believe that this issue is separate from the issue posted in this thread, so I am unsure of what to do from here.
Yes, sadly I am following the CalyxOS news these days, I hope you can find a good home here in the meantime while they regroup.
I use Shelter regularly, I assume Insular should be fine too. I wonder if there is something behind the scenes different between the Calyx work profile feature and the other apps that is causing some issue. I should also mention I haven’t used the “Private Profile” feature, it didn’t seem to solve anything for my particular use case (wanting to keep apps like WhatsApp etc. frozen all the time as I use Beeper for daily texting with it).
If you are willing to try, and you do have your Seedvault backup, could you delete the work profile and set it up clean, then just manually install a few apps in it and observe if it keep crashing? That may help isolate where the issue is.
Hi, I will give this a try and report back if it fixes it. In the meantime, I have unfortunately stumbled across another issue that I feel will warrant it’s own thread, my IMEI numbers appear to be borked and I no longer have cellular connectivity
OK replied there to the IMEI issue, that is a bad one but I can’t believe it is from just using the iodé installer, but let‘s follow that up on the other thread.
