Description

I've recently run into a serious problem trying to covert a Google ROM using SuperR's Kitchen and removing all the Google that you would normally do debloating.

I've now noticed that the Share Button does not work in any Gallery Application, or applications that have the Share feature for them.

This is a really serious problem having such a feature not working, and I'd love to be able to take a Google ROM and convert it in SuperR's Kitchen, as I am doing and have this work.

I've attached a logcat, hopefully it will show something, as to why this Share Feature is not working.

I tried like 6-7 Gallery apps, and none of them worked.

If I install the Google ROM, debloat it, then install microG, this works, but I don't want to do this. I want to build the Google ROM in SuperR's Kitchen and hopefully make this work.

I'm doing this in OxygenOS 5.1.7 for a OnePlus 5T and these are the apps I've removed from the ROM and replaced with microG;

system/app/Account
system/app/BTtestmode
system/app/CalendarGoogle
system/app/Chrome
system/app/Drive
system/app/Duo
system/app/EasterEgg
system/app/EngineeringMode
system/app/EngSpecialTest
system/app/Gmail2
system/app/GoogleContactsSyncAdapter
system/app/GooglePay
system/app/GooglePrintRecommendationService
system/app/LatinImeGoogle
system/app/LogKitSdService
system/app/Maps
system/app/Music2
system/app/NFCTestMode
system/app/NVBackupUI

system/priv-app/OPDeviceManager
system/priv-app/OPDeviceManagerProvider
system/priv-app/Phonesky
system/priv-app/Velvet
system/reserve/OPForum
system/reserve/Weather

I also disabled the Setup Wizard in the build.prop;

ro.setupwizard.mode=DISABLED

Now building the ROM in SuperR's Kitchen, and flashing it in TWRP, this function does not work.
