[ROM][PX5][Oreo] For MTCD - From ROM Dump - MTCD Software Development

Oreo ROM repacked from ROM dump here
Note: This flashable PX5 Oreo ROM is UNTESTED. Attempt to apply at your own risk
Both [update] and [supdate] images have been created. [supdate] should be tried first.
If soft brick, theory is, the same SDCARD tool can be used to recreate / flash back your Android 6 ROM - but I have not yet had time to test this. Worst case, if unit does not boot, SOM could be recovered by OTG, as detailed in my other threads or sent to me for reflash at your return-freight cost.
How to install: Use SDCARD creator tool in same location to create a bootable upgrade SDCARD. No further instruction will be given, if you're not an experienced with MTCD units, I do not recommend you try this.
Warning acknowledged, please post your results.

Full information on the development of this image and contributors can be found in this thread

..Reserved for updates...

In order of a soft brick I would like to test if a android 6 flash work. Can you provide the files I need for this?
EDIT: Nevermind.
Just booted after keeping it running for like ten minutes.

Got it installed and running. Will play with it more tomorrow once I install everything back. Thanks :good:

Any update on this?

We've been successful - see Oreo thread. It requires Android 8 recovery first be installed and then the vendor supplied update.zip can be installed.

Get stock ROM + TWRP + root for Lenovo k10e70 here

Finally, after more than a year searching, asking, try & error session, I compiled the safest method to get root and custom recovery for this phone.
As you know, there are very little support and resources out there for this model. Like the title said, I provide the resources within my knowledge and skills to help you.
I, myself debug this so you don't have to worry about making the same mistake I made. (What mistake you ask? Hmmm..)
This phone come with 2 variants. Mine is 1GB Ram but I'm sure this will work for any K10E70 as well.
Before you guys start all this, make sure you know what you doing. At least, prepare. Dig some more about the item I mentioned. Get to know what the "do" and "don't", because if you just ignore this, in between now to success, there a greater risk of your phone getting brick. Last but not least, do backup.
Okay, lets get started...
WHAT YOU NEED
#1 Courage (For trying something new..)
#2 Patient (Lot of it..)
#3 ROM (This ROM is built for China market, so there's no GAPPS since they had their own version of "Google". But don't worry, I got this covered..)
#4 Magisk - Systemless root
#5 TWRP custom recovery
#6 GAPPS (Optional)
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Flashing ROM using stock recovery
- Place ROM in SD card root.
- Reboot to recovery. (Power button+Vol Up)
- Once you get in recovery, go to 'Apply Update from SD Card'.
- Find your ROM zip file, install.
- Wait till finish, reboot. (or it'll reboot itself, either one..)
- You have to understand that this ROM is meant for China market, so there's
a lot of Chinese bloatware. This is why you need root to remove all that.
2. Installing Magisk for root
- Install Magisk from provided link.
- Get boot.img from provided link.
- See, learn, and dig more here.
3. Flashing TWRP .img
- Get the TWRP .img from provided link.
- here how to flash and here to know what is actually TWRP .
Or
- You can download Flashify and flash from there. I can't guarantee the success but the possibility is there.
- Assumed you success, you'll find that the custom recovery is in Chinese (again..).
- Don't panic, I got this too. Changing the theme will also change the language.
- Get the Materialized-Dark.zip from provided link.
- Refer here how to change theme.
- Refer here to figure out the menu placing, which is which.
4. Flashing GAPPS (Optional)
- Get the GAPPS from provided link.
- Flash using your newly hot smoking TWRP
You can get all the necessary file HERE.
Million thanks and credits goes to topjohnwu for a magical Magisk, TeamWin for brilliantly TWRP, tasnim_tamim for TWRP Material theme and lastly for a some random Chinese guys and ladies who helping and providing me stock firmware. I hope there are more variety of support for this phone in the nearest future, such as custom rom, etc.
Have a nice day!
Great job, you are the man. Any help to root Lenovo K10a40 please, i think it's similar to your device and thanks in advance.

I think Magisk will do the trick, as long as you can pull out boot.img from your rom. Its worth a try. Good luck.
Any site has posted about the firmware/rom yet?
Can someone confirm this?

Rom already uploaded.
Does this work for K10 E40, or just E70 phones? Sounds like it's almost the same phone.
[EDIT] Just noticed that the k10e40 is the same as Lenovo C2 Power

[STOCK] Revert to stock Android One

Hi all,
To go along with our thread on installing official TWRP, we're adding a thread on reverting to stock as we've seen (and are working on) issues with installing GSIs post-TWRP.
I've created a post on Guava's support site that includes a link to the file and directions. The TL;DR is:
Download the file
Run the flash_all script
As always, please feel free to post questions/comments/concerns.
, Guava.
Thanks for all your support for Mi A2 Lite. Hope you sell a ton of units.
Regards
It does not boot anymore!
does anyone know if this stock version has a permissive or enforcing SElinux mode?
i am refering to this
because havoc install on top of this stock version leads to bootloops and at havoc they say:
if the rom doesnt boot then check your Selinux status not all devices have fully compatable vendors so you may have to switch to Permissive if the rom doesnt boot or any feature like wifi camera FP didnt work
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
By default any stock kernel should run in enforcing mode.
is it for V9.6.6?
can i flash it on v9.6.6 build number? if not please give me the link for this version

site link is broken. pls, relink or give instruction here
On Guava's site there is nothing explaining how to revert to stock factory image for Daisy.
This, coupled with plenty of posts on the TWRP official thread for Daisy from people complaining about instructions for flashing twrp not being clear, and even (at least) one guy with a hard bricked phone, I think requires a bit of clarification.
Understand we all do this at our own risk, but if a clear and (possibly) safe procedure exists, please do share that.
I thought sharing was fundamental to the community.
Thanks!

Successfully Flashed BNTV450 Stock Rom on BNTV460 Nook 7 (2018) Tablet

Greetings my tech peoples.
Just wanted to let everybody know I successfully flashed a BNTV450 Stock Rom on a BNTV460 Tablet. As I said in a previous post, I bricked the little guy trying to get root (it got stuck in a bootloop after I patched Magisk to the boot-sign img and then flashed it) so I thought, why not be creative and see what you can do with the little guy.
Now there are problems. A **** ton of problems. It isn't what I would call functional. Screen keeps going Red on the borders and flickering. Start thing crashed. But I can get in and finagle to developer options and such. Flashboot and ADB still working though. Keep in mind I flashed with SP Tool via scatter file.
But hey - it can be done!!!!
Also, just for note, I've also been able to flash a boot img of the 450 over an installation of the 460 stock rom - did that unlocking the device. Honestly, that caused less problems but I wasn't able to get root. Also, it naturally erased my unlocking but fret not, I've unlocked the thing 3 times in the 12 hours I've had it.
This is my first nook device, and my first timed dealing with new android, Oreo. But I just wanted to give the hope out there.
Hopefully better news in the coming days.
You wouldn't want to share your scatter file and your stock firmware would you? Trying to recover a 450 that won't boot past Nook screen. I cannot unlock it because the volume key does not respond. I have been able to flash 1.02, 2.04, and 2.05 boot and recovery images from ipdev's thread with no change. Also got a 1.02 system.img from him but that did not seem to fix it either. I do not have adb access at this moment either so cannot logcat.

This is the 450 firmware I used:https://mega.nz/#!Ds5lTCRD!MT8za1cUYOfEkSXGZB57gIsWr12ogWs9YotDoHZLwQ4
Scatterfile is in there. Keep in mind I got it from an unverified source - use at your own risk just in case it has that piece of software in the OS that B&N knew about which you can read about here: https://techcrunch.com/2016/12/22/the-new-barnesnoble-nooks-come-with-free-malware/

Sorry bro, it kept redirecting weirdly. I reposted the link in the previous post and it should work.
Here is also the site I got it from: https://www.xsfirmware.com/nook-bntv450-mt8163-android-6-0-firmware-flash-files/
Back up and running. Thank you.

No prob dude.
If spflash tool is working, but you have not a correct scatter file. You can use "Wwr_MTK tool" to read back the whole emmc and read partition table from preloader, the tool will make scatter file and full image copies of the firmware partition by partition
I did this, but now I can't log into the B&N account, and if I try to open nook settings, it asks me to log in, and again, it doesn't let me...

Qualcomm Crashdump

Hi all
I have just bought a new Oneplus 6 and wanted to install Lineage Os.
I had initially set up the OP6 with my google account and installed some minimum apps over a couple of days. The phone updated a couple of times. I think I started on Android 8, it definitely updated to Android 9 and I think it updated to Android 10. But I am not completely sure of this because I did not take notice at that stage because I didn't realise that this might have significance..
I followed the guide from the lineaoge os wiki here
wiki.lineageos.org/devices/enchilada[
I got as far as using adb to Fastboot boot twrp-3.3.1-2-enchilada.img (which was the latest image in the dl.twrp.me/enchilada/
It then got stuck in the qualcomm crashdump line on screen.
I spent a day checking posts, including here on XDA. There are a lot of posts dealing with this issue and I did try to follow some of them with less or more success but no resolve. I downloaded Android 9.02 and used the following instructions
techtrickz.com/how-to/recover-oneplus-6-and-6t-from-qualcomm-crashdump-mode/
The routine started to run and then posted a series of error messages and exited. ( I have a screenshot of the terminal window but cannot see a way to post it here)
I have tried to research this further and there are plenty of posts and lots of suggestions. But to be honest I have become confused as some of the posts give significantly different solutions to each other.
I wondered whether it would be possible to give me some help or point me in the right direction to a post which is current and has the steps that I am likely to need succeed..
Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

I would recommend using fastboot flashable stock rom from here. People also like to use msmtool, but I feel like it is an overkill.
Please note this warning:
These ROMs can't be used to update or downgrade your phone but just to restore your phone, so don't use them to come back to oreo or to update from oreo to pie.
So grab the latest oxygen os 10, and follow the instructions to flash it. After that, if you are feeling a bit paranoid maybe download a zip from oneplus and do a local update. You now should have your phone back.
Official TWRP does not support android 10 yet, as far as I understand, so that is probably the issue. If you want lineageos 16, you should downgrade to android 9 using a downgrade package provided by oneplus and then update to Oxygen OS 9.0.9.
There is unofficial twrp by mauronofrio that supports android 10. If you want to go from OOS 10 to some other android 10 rom

Thanks very much for your helpful reply. I am now back to a working phone with Oxygen os10. And you have also explained what was wrong when I tried to fix it, I was trying to load an Oxygen Os 9 on a phone that had already been upgraded to 10 and you have explained what went wrong in the first place, I was trying to flash an incompatible TWRP image onto Android 10. So your short post has explained a lot. Thank you.
I am not feeling paranoid unless you advise that I should be and I do want to install lineage os. So I need to revert to Oxygen Os9. I have looked on the Oneplus site and that have found the option to Upgrade to 10.3 but no option to downgrade. In the Oneplus community there is a link to downloadable ROMs, these are divided into a number of folders some of which look not applicable. There are three folders that look of interest
1. Signed flashable zips
2. OTA incremental update zips
3. Stock boot-recovery images
Here is the link /forums.oneplus.com/threads/oneplus-6-rom-ota-oxygen-os-mirrors-for-official-oxygen-os-roms-and-ota-updates.835607/
I can see it is not the OTA Incremental that I need but am unsure if it is signed flashable zips or Stock boot recovery images. or whether it is neither.
Do I flash as normal or would it be a local update?
I would be grateful for any further advice.
Thanks again and for any help provided now.

I have had luck with this downgrade package. I basically googled it, the package is hosted on a legitimate website, so that's what I used. Just download it, put it on your phone and do a local upgrade through updater app.
Once you have done that I would recommend upgrading to the latest Android 9, which is OOS version 9.0.9 I believe. Then go ahead and follow instructions to install lineageos.
I am actually on LineageOS 16 + MicroG right now, so I ran into the same problems you did Glad I could help!

Thanks so much for your reply again.
I used your downgrade link and that all worked well and then let it upgrade to OOS 9.0.9. Again all very positive.
I then tried to flash TWRP to the device using this image "twrp-3.3.1-2-enchilada.img" It appeared to flash okay. Then I issued the command
"fastboot boot twrp-3.3.1-2-enchilada.img" over my adb connection and it returned to the Qualcomm Crashdump error.
I presume I have to start again with the exception that this time I can use a flashable stock rom that is OOS 9.09? Is that correct?
Then do you have any suggestions for getting round the TWRP problem? Did you use a different version?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Hm. Yes, unfortunately the safest thing to do is to start again. But you can start with 9.0.9 right away.
People have been discussing a similar issue here. It seems like using unofficial twrp by blu_spark helps. Maybe twrp-3.2.3-x_blu_spark_v9.91_op6.img or maybe try the latest one.
Also, make sure you read the instructions on lineageos website. Make sure you have oem unlocked, usb debugging enabled and you clicked "always give access to this" device or something, do the fastboot set_active a. I have also used fastboot flash boot_a <recovery_filename>.img. However, I do recall using fastboot boot <recovery_filename>.img some other time and I think it worked....
Anyway, yeah, maybe try this modified recovery by blu spark and follow the instructions carefully.

Thanks very much for your helpful reply and apologies for the delay in my reply to this post, I have been tied up with work the last couple of days.
I did re-install OOS 9 and then followed the instructions on the Team Win site to install TWRP in the Oneplus6. I had success after I used the latest TWRP image and zip from that site . I was then able to install Lineage OS and Microg as I wished.
So thanks for the help all. Really appreciated.

I want to install android 8 (Oreo) Go edition onto my fake Android 11 Chinese tablet (Its actually Android 5.1). Anyone kind enough to teach me how.

Disclaimer this is my first time posting here so pls pardon me I don't know how to post and I promise to edit this post if there is something wrong.
Information about device is in the attached pictures.
What I am Requesting:
Can someone teach me how to install Android 8(Oreo) Go Edition on my tablet please.
Why am I asking help and not researching and do it myself:
Because it is a unknown brand so I dont have any references and I very scared of bricking the device I spent my college savings on.
Back Story:
Bought a cheap tablet from China which turned out to be fake in many ways than one. Its running on android 5.1. It has a ton of bloatware just to keep up the scam of being android 11. Instead of going through the hassle of returning product I decided to just make it better and install Android 8(Oreo) Go Edition to get some new features and remove all the bloatware while I am at it.
What I know about the device:
(Additional information, Not including IMEI, is in the attached pictures.)
It uses a octa core MT6592 32 bit CPU Android 5.1
Why Oreo Go:
Go is a stripped down version of android and since the tablet is kinda *JUNK* I figured its perfect to use Go edition on it.
Why Oreo, because I couldn't find a 32 bit version of android 9 to 12 Go. I assume bit version is important
What is the source of the Android Oreo Go rom:
Its the Wiko Y50, because it seemed close enough in specs and I was able to download the .pac file and extracted the boot.img file from it.

In my opinion, it is a waste of time and health for such an experiment. You must accept the failure of buying a fake device. This will be your experience for the future.

I don't mind wasting my time. I am in college learning technical skills are useful. I like to learn the skill for the future. And I honestly almost had this covered using tutorials but I got stuck at finding my original stock rom and fastboot loader rom for this specific device.
Can I use this?
How to Go Back to Stock Android From a Custom ROM: 3 Ways

I got the stock rom of the Wiko Y50 which is the Wiko Y50's boot.img file, couldnt I simply switch out my original stock rom from this instruction to that of the Wiko Y50's?
Im not trying to download a non custom firmware like lineage so wouldnt it just work if I used the method of flashing stock rom when the firmware I want to to install is a stock rom of another phone?
First you should:
1. make root (if possible) to make a full backup of all partitions and learn about partition organization.
2. learn how to restore the system from the backup done.

Thanks used your advice. Heres an update
I was able to root using kingroot it was a pain looking for the real legit one.
next followed this vid to install twrp
it ruined my recovery mode. well the tablet still works but recovery is dead.
I followed it because the title mentioned same kernel and same cpu but it was a scam. the part where he was using twrp was fake...
well regardless tablet is rooted and still works just need to find a way to repair recovery mode.
next i downloaded official twrp recovery from playstore. saving boot keeps failing any advice?
I was thinking of using the recovery.img of the symphony h300.
because same cpu, kernel, and android version.
i found a source here
Should I attempt to repair recovery using this?

Somewhere on the XDA forum I saw a thread about how to make TWRP yourself based on your own boot.img.
Other than that, checking if TWRP is working is done via adb. Your screen may show the result of not working properly in graphics mode.
[GUIDE]Porting TWRP without source
Yes, I know XDA is filled with such guides. But you can only port a TWRP if you implement parts of all the guides. This guide is a summation of all those guides. NOTE: I would be using AIK-Linux in this tutorial, since I don't recommend Windows...
