Nothing Launcher Crash

[Walrus98]

I've installed LSPosed with magisk
I've installed nothing core module with magisk
I've enabled the module in LSPosed
When I select the nothing launcher as default app it crashes.
Idea?

Did you had a Nothing Launcher mod installed before this?

[Walrus98]

Did you had a Nothing Launcher mod installed before this?

Yes, I had your old nothing launcher module, this one:
https://xdaforums.com/t/mod-port-nothing-launcher-2-2-2-a13-magisk-module.4637647/

Clearly I uninstalled everything and deleted the module from magisk before install nothing core

Also please check if this file exists
/system/etc/permissions/com.nothing.launcher.xml

[nitanmarcel]

@Walrus98 it's worth checking if you can uninstall it, from system settings, press the 3 dots top right see of you get the option

[nitanmarcel]

And if you are using Magisk Delta the launcher is whitelisted

[Walrus98]

Also please check if this file exists /system/etc/permissions/com.nothing.launcher.xml

Yes the file exists.
I am not able to unistall the app from app settings

[nitanmarcel]

Please try this, enable the module for System Framework and reboot

https://transfer.sh/iPHbMVrTtJ/NothingCore.apk

[Walrus98]

It keeps crashing

[nitanmarcel]

It keeps crashing

Have you installed the application from the link, selected System Framework and rebooted? Can you also send logcat? (Not the copy paste log)

[nitanmarcel]

I had the same issue on A14, and a couple more I fixed it, but maybe I've missed something xD

[nitanmarcel]

Ah, my bad. Send me logs from LSPosed not logcat, should be enough

You either forgot to install the APK I've sent you or you've not enabled the module for System Framework

[nitanmarcel]

So I think I've done all the tests I can, but it still doesn't work. I uninstalled your module, checked that all nothing apps were uninstalled from settings. I uninstalled LSPosed. I updated Magisk to the latest version. I downloaded LSPosed again I installed the latest version of LSPosed (I had it before) I installed using Magisk the nothing core module I enabled everything you said from the settings of LSposed I have rebooted multiple times and it keeps crashing, both with nothingcore.apk (the default one and the one you passed me).

I've also updated all the nothing apps using the PlayStore (that seems to work perfectly) except for the nothing launcher, I update it to 2.2.6 using apk from apkmirror. (I've used apk mirror installer from PlayStore)

I'll attach the logs again, maybe something has changed.

I use LSPosed only for your application and I have few modules on Magisk. Two for Google camera and Universal safety next (which by the way no longer works and will be deprecated)

Do any of your magisk module changes the SDK version in props?

I don't know, how can I see that? Exactly I have installed the following modules

It can also force to not grant it if something is wrong with the signature.
Make sure that the launcher APp has both nothing and android signatures.
You can use something like AppManager to check
https://github.com/MuntashirAkon/AppManager

I've never used that, I just finished to install the app in this moment, what exactly do I have to check?

Do you have sulist enabled? Try with it disabled

[Walrus98]

I tried, it doesn't work

[nitanmarcel]

Ok, I came back to Android 13 and it seems that it works now. Please before I do a release, uninstall your old module, make sure all the nothing apps are properly removed and try again. Make sure you have checked Show system apps in system settings to make sure you don't miss anything (in special the nothing proxy).

Thanks ^^

(File size is bigger because it also contains apps for A14

https://file.io/I1atfeMpO1Pc

If it doesn't work I'll still keep the issue open, maybe it's something related to the what ROM you are using.

The mentioned permission in your logs are automatically given if the module is enabled for System framework. I also noticed that with the GSI I'm using from phh I don't see the need for the permission to be forced into Xposed (Only on Android 14 it's mandatory)

Try this one

I disabled the module from LSposed,
uninstalled the module from magisk
I deleted the remaining apps (actually nothing core was left installed)

I rebooted the phone

I installed the nothing core 0.0.3 module from magisk
rebooted the phone
I enabled the module from Lsposed (system framework is enabled)
rebooted the phone
I opened the launcher and it crashes
I updated the apps from the playstore
I opened the launcher and it crashes
I updated the launcher app from apkmirror
it keeps crashing.

I am sending you the logs from lsposed

Sorry I'm out of idea. Must be something with your ROM. The only idea that comes in my mind is that it might be a mismatch between the android system key and the android keys used to signed the apks, since that permission is given mostly to apps signed with the system key the ROM was signed with.

What ROM are you using? If it's an OEM it might be signed with their own keys

I'm currently using the latest version of DerpFest ROM (A13) for my OnePlus 7t pro. What I don't understand is why the old version of your launcher, before the lsposed module worked. Maybe there is something modified left somewhere, I really don't know. Clearly I uninstalled the old module before installing the new one. I'll try again next time that I'll format data :)

The old version worked because it had everything that requires special access stripped out. Especially the one that causes us so much trouble.

Can you also check if Modify system settings is toggled?

[Walrus98]

Yes, it is enabled

[nitanmarcel]

Yes, it is enabled

Ohhh I'm so sorry. In my defense when I looked over the logs it was 3AM.

You have issues with PACKAGE_USAGE_STATS when I granted android.permission.MANAGE_ACTIVITY_TASKS based on the error I was getting. Will fix asap

[nitanmarcel]

@Walrus98 this should hopefully fix the problem for good. I should have paid attention a little more ^^

https://we.tl/t-P4FQdapL7m

If it still crashes then there might be another error happening. Send logs :)

[Walrus98]

It works!! But there are some issues:
I'm comparing your nothing core module with an original nothing phone 1 (my girlfriend has one) and I noticed a few things:

1. It missing one widget, 'impostazioni rapide' in Italian (quick settings)

My OP7t pro

Nothing phone 1

2. There is not a gesture when swiping down to open quicksetting

3. I think I have a bug with nothing weather app, it keeps to ask me the permission to access to my local position even if is already given and the weather widget app doesn't work

[nitanmarcel]

I know, I can't find that widget it might be in the SystemUI which can't be used.
For the weather app update it to the latest version
Does the launcher in NothingOS has swipe gestures?

[nitanmarcel]

Let's move this to discussions since the main issue is gone :)

[nitanmarcel]

The launcher needs to be set as the default recents provider for swipe to work.

Please test it
NothingLauncherConfigOverlay.zip

[nitanmarcel]

You also need to replace this in /data/adb/modules/nothing_core/system/framework/not-a-framework.jar and reboot

https://we.tl/t-oBgoJWK1Rt

[Walrus98]

Nope, it doesn't work on my phone, the gestures are broken.

[nitanmarcel]

Ah RIP. Any logs?

Tho it might just not work on most of heavily modified custom ROMs. Even if it's clean install

[nitanmarcel]

Should hopefully work now
