IT'S FAKE, GUYS!! He tried some random guide on the internet! He doesn't know what he's doing. He posted the same exact ROM for the Mi A1 and he bricked other people's devices. Please don't try this!

I thought so since Nokia hasn't released its source codes yet.
I'm looking at the specs of the note4 mtk, and I see that the chipset is Mediatek MT6797 Helio X20.
I'm not sure that would work with the nokia 3

Mi A1 has different partition scheme. The rom should work for Nokia and Mediatek.
Well, we will know is it real rom if someone flash it

Guys, I just got my hands on NK3(Nokia 3) today, hoping I will be able to do something for it soon.
AND regrading the quoted reply to link(guide) , I wrote that simple guide and it's not and never meant for porting Miui Roms.
FOR now, I have not tested the acclaimed Miui for NK3 , and as some says it's fake it might be true but to clear all doubts, someone should take the risk and try.
If I get free time too, I will try it personally to see.

first of all thanks for the guide. I want to clarify that I drew inspiration not only from yours, but also from this http://www.osbusters.net/2015/11/how-to-port-miui-7-rom-to-qualcomm-smartphones.html, which is designed for processors qualcomm but that is fine in general and is based on a comparison of fstab files of the boot.img through the meld software.

Please no matter what you do or can do, its not recommended to do use a number of peoples' device to test a project it your ain't certain.
in the previous replies, someone mentioned that you did same to Mi A1 which you got those devices bricked, please and please , its better you get a tester to test your stuffs for you than to push to publicc for all dudes to bricked thier device.
Remember, they used money to purchase the NK3.
Thanks.
Yeah completely hard bricked my phone I think, have to wait until I can be back with it to see if it is possible to unbrick it.
Seems like when I tried it earlier, it didn't even boot into the preloader....
Can anyone here see if https://forum.hovatek.com/thread-11836.html is possible?

Hi,
I was looking for developer who can make kernel (would be awesome also a rom) for MTK6592 especially for Doogee DG550. If you don't have DG550 never mind. Owners can buy you one. We will be so grateful.
Here is kernel source:

Hi man, would be awesome. Are system img and boot img enough for you?
I posted it here:
http://www.needrom.com/download/dg550-kitkat-02112015-blackview-dm550/
It's just rebranded DG550 and it's better than original rom by Doogee (causes battery draining) and they also fix time from internet and other stuff...
Well, all MT6592 are "ALPS". AFAIK
Please provide proper LCM Driver, etc.
As i have the same device i'm very interested.
Files u provided are way not enough for a "simple" build
Currently i'm running this Phone at stock kernel with DarkL privat port. It gives me up to 5days battery on moderated use. So the stock dg550 Kernel is fine already, at least on the battery side ofc
However in my opinion there is no reason why somebody would donate a developer this phone. It cost around 135€. People would have more benefits if they just buy a new, cheaper and more powerful phone while dumping this one.
If u like a good Rom, u can still try port cm12.1 from mt6592 plattform. We might just miss steps in ramdisk

I've contacted Doogee on some e-mails so be in touch. They post on FB post about developing roms for their phones. Does anybody know if they truly pick someone from XDA or 4pda?
Could some one please compile TWRP 2.8.7 or 2.8.6 for DG550? I tried but no success only boot loop
They dont share source. U can use stock Kernel and build cm around. Like few guys here.
Please just read the forum

Wonderful, thx.
Well it ain't boot(didnt pass vendor bootloader logo) on our Devices Doogee DG550. More than me already tried
Port from mt6582 to mt6592 works fine on first run
Yeah, it doesn't work at all. It was working on previous updates. They changed /data to 3GB that could be the problem, isn't it? I was working on flashable rom but it didn't boot. Even I use files from backup in TWRP, it must be problem with META-INF files.
Yeah other recoveries may work, but TWRP is best now like CWM few years ago. I can't even port 2.8.1 with that MTK tool on the newest rom from Blackview.
Also do you know about more complex tool for root checker? I have still problem I was using Super Su 2.46 but can't install busybox, so I used KingoUser and it was working but sometimes it stop working and I have to update Su binaries manually. BTW I don't like KingoUser, the Super Su is much better but doesn't work as it should on this rom. On my P4 5.1.1 working just fine.
my data is 8gb// ebr1 ebr2 .
what u mean, that previous version of cm12 kingzone worked on dg550?
The update script itself works fine with philz
For busybox i used "smartinstall" on Dark L Rom with dg550"

I tested lineageos15.1 and it worked, boot was ok and rom very smooth.
I will do it again as soon as I will have a day free.
A little help in the procedure would be great. I've already bricked my 6A by formatting the wrong directories, and had to go to a Xiaomi center to get it fixed. Details would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance ?

Yet SIM doesn't work that well from my experience. I have to "activate" SIM signal and calls and sms won't work.
Otherwise if you still want help reply to me
I still want help. I don't want another bricked phone, that was a nightmare I just don't need right now. Please describe the whole process, from start to finish.
I did it at a moment that I had several free hours.
But now, it's too complicated for me touche find Time to do it again.
I juste followed the steps described un official TWRP github, and then install LOS15.1 Treble image.
boot, login, smooth and wifi was ok But didn't have enough Time to test with a sim for calls or data...
So I reflash stock miui 10 with miflash to find an usable phone.
Juste need a free moment to test los15.1 again and other gsi roms like aosp8.1, pixel experience, etc...
Interested too
Hi.
i'm very interested in having your feedback as i intend to put LineageOS or AOSP Treble on my Redmi 6 global version next month after the bootloader unlock time.
Do you plan to install OpenGoogleApps and root too?

There seems to exist a new method: It is said to work on Qualcomm devices.
First, dump frp partion, then edit the value to 1 at 7fff0, finally, flash the modified frp image. then you can use fastboot command to unlock your phone.
This new method shall work for for ODM devices like 16T, 16x, 16xs and Note9 and so on. see FRP Method.
Below is the original post:
The original post has been removed, since it's outdated and I almost finished the English version tutorial on Github.
You can see it on github.
BTW, it's really difficult to use XDA's text editor.
You can download the TWRP of 16s here
it's a start, is there anyone who has already tried a gsi?
Good news for us Meizu users! Hope this is just a first step towards some good modding ?

There seems to be custom ROMs for MEIZU 16th, I've seen Lineage, havoc, and mokee before. But i don't know how do these ROMs work. Anyway, I use 16s, not 16th. Besides, I don't know how to add a new phone category.
BTW, it's said that the kernel source of the 16 series will be released, maybe next year. And there are plans to upgrade the Android version of the 16 series.

No problem. If your phone becomes a brick, you can follow the unbrick tutorial to save your phone. But you are suggested to have glance at the tutorial before you go.

RROS has plethora of features and customisations. You could try it. And if you still have free time, also check out Lineage and then pixel experience. As 1 GB ram isn't much, try sticking to the stock experience as much as possible.
And one more thing... Did you succeed in creating custom recoveries for your device?
As your device shipped with Android 8, it might support treble and if yes, try creating a custom recovery with treble support. You could then simply use GSIs without the difficulty of compiling ROMs.

So I did have a go with GSIs, and it was slightly succesful. I was only able to flash android 8.1 systems. BUT I COULD NOT, for the love of god, could not flash android 9 for my device.

Noice. Then go with compiling the latest ROMs yourself. But I believe that takes a lot of time doesn't it? By compiling them yourself, you can customise the hell out of them!
My bad, I never even tried making a ROM (so I actually know nothing about it LOL ).
And be careful, you might brick your device...

Thank you!
I am using Project elixir for almost 2 weeks now. So far so good.
I suggest you dont flash it but instead usi it via DSU. Autobrightness is not working, fingerprint too. There are gcam ports wich are also compatible with our device. Battery life is better than miui. Even adding a card to google wallet works fine, until a reboot.

Sorry but what do you mean with "use it via DSU"? What does DSU mean? Is there a tutorial for it? Thank you in advance!

You shouldve just used google to understand better. But basically its a subsystem method wich was implemented to allow a/b partition devices to be able to run gsis' for testing purposes, without the need of flashing and deleting the original os. Think of it as dualboot for android. The only thing is that if you're using it via dev settings, you dont have the choice of selecting what to boot, but your device will directly download google's official gsi (wich is not very functional and its ugly).
Thats why you just need to download the DSU Sideloader app from PlayStore. The app will do everything with a gsi of your choice if you follow the instructions.
The only thing wich is mandatory is that the BL of your device must be unlocked in order to use dsu.
There are videos on YT showing this. If you want to try the gsi I mentioned, download it from their website.

No problem, I dont mind explaining, but there are pretty detailed articles, wich may enlighten you better than I can do it. Anyways, if/when you try it you'll really understand how much MIUI is ruining the experience of that pretty device. I was thinking about selling it 3 days after i got it, only because of that deprecated UI with stupid restrictions. I'm really glad i searched and tried stuff. Good luck!

Hi, sorry if I bother you, I've just tried with project elixir GSI using DSU sideloader, but I don't know why when I restart by clicking on notification it doesn't even boot on my GSI... I've installed the sideloader as root installation... I don't know why it's not working...

Well I'm not using root. I gave permissions via adb and i have no problems. What rom chinese or global ? or maybe you're using something custom like xiaomi eu?
