Xperia T (Lt30p) resurrection - General Questions and Answers

Hi guys hope you can help,
After successfully installing Lineage OS on an old Samsung phone, I decided to try giving an old Xperia T a new lease of life. I followed this thread as a guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2000188
I successfully unlocked the bootloader and used flashtool to install the custom kernal listed on that thread. Thats where things got difficult, as upon restarting the phone it bootlooped. I tried flashing TWRP but couldn't get it to work so fastbooted CMD recovery, which works. I trying flashing Lineage OS as CWM13 is no longer available but could only find a Lineage 14.0 zip which I tried flashing off the exernal SD card (https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/mint/install) which fails and gives the following error:

I was thinking maybe its not compatible so was looking for a lollypop rom to try instead, but marshmallow or above would be preferable.
Now im no expert at this so any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Ok fixed it. Also downloaded AOSPs OREO OS and the latest twrp img. The error was resolved after flashing twrp with flashtool then in recovery under advanced wipe, select system, repair or change file system, Ext4. Then flashed OS, SuperSU and Gapps (8.1) and did a backup.

M8 Stuck in initial boot after loading boot.img

Hi,
I've unlocked and s-off'ed my m8 4.4.3 in an attempt to load a custom android 7.1.1 rom (resurrection remix to be exact). I go through all the steps laid out in wccftech.com's tutorial and when I initially install the flash boot of the extracted image (in the same folder as my sdk platform tools) and then reboot, it always gets stuck. I've tried rebooting manually after and then loading into hboot to continue with installing the .zip file in recovery, but it always fails and I think this is the cause. Is there some sort of workaround for this? It's done this on both resurrection and crDroid. I am at a loss.

Do you have the latest version of twrp installed?

Keep getting error 7 on ROMs installation

I just got my z5 from the service centre.
I use this guide to root my phone as soon as I got it.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z5/general/ftf-e66xx-patched-kernels-google-drive-t3630282
Then proceeded to install Resurrection remix and LineageOS.
First one gave me error 7 and the latter too.
I tried to delete the assert line in updater-script but the same problem persist.
You have to flash twrp 3.1.1 and everything will work without problem, so you are doing something wrong.
TWRP flash is already inside the guide. How would I say I get error 7 without installing TWRP?
That's kinda weird since I specifically deleted the line that checks for the device string for RR (only the AOSP / lineageOS based TWRP versions would match, so that check is kinda stupid),
in that case users need to know for sure that they have that specific device (e.g. NOT flashing Z5 compact to Z5) but the hassle is removed.
I believe I'm using the attached TWRP (it's 3.1.0 anyway),
and with that I could flash RR without problems
i will flash that TWRP again and try re-installing the ROM again
Still the same errorRIP

cant install any OS

Hi guys
So i created quite a mess here..
Device:
Mate 9 L09C432
I had RomAur B197 installed.
Then i tried to somehow get to oreo.
I was able to flash the newest oreo stock firmware with HWOTA tool and it worked but it was unrooted & locked i guess.
So i unlocked it again and flashed twrp 3.2.1-0 fromfuture edition.
Seems like the data was decrypted, i just saw strange filename, so i wiped data, what actually helped.
Unfortunately this somehow broke the system and starting the os caused a bootloop.
Then i discovered that MTP was not working in TWRP so i flashed TWRP 3.2.1-0 by Pretoriano80.
With this recovery MTP was working so i tried to flash an OS somehow.
I tried to flash the stock firmware again with HWOTA8 but it failed at the update.zip
Manual flash in twrp also fails for that update.zip.
I also tried to flash a treble rom from a german forum.
After that twrp was not starting anymore (bootloop).
So back to twrp by fromfuture where MTP is not working, good that i have an SD card.
And i once wiped system because the space was 0mb after that it was fine again.
TWRP gives the following for the update.zip file:
Code:
...
write radio image...
check_write_data_to_partition,write data error update_huawei_pkd_from_ota_zip: update package from zip failed.
E:unknown dommand [errno]
update process ended wit ERROR: 9
Error installing zip file...
So yeah im a bit out of ideas..
Any ideas are welcome
Thanks
Your mistake is trying to flash a custom rom using TWRP. Most treble/Oreo roms can not be flashed with TRWP. Upgrading to Oreo changes the partitions on the device and that may have caused your issue. My advice would be to download the Huawei update extractor and your current firmware. Open up the extractor and extract the recovery ramdisk. Flash the stock recovery via fastboot. Once you have the stock recovery back. Download the Carbonromv4 from openkirin.net and flash that. That you should get you back up and running. Search XDA for how to install a generic treble system img or check the support page on the Openkirin site for instructions.
Thanks for this advice, everything worked
It was that easy but I just didn't know before..
anyways thanks a lot!

Glad to hear it worked for you! The treble roms work really well and if you are looking for a better camera try the P20 camera port. You will have to re-flash TWRP to install it, but you can then flash the stock recovery back.

Problem with custom rom on the Note 10.1 2012

So I tried to install a custom rom on GT-N8010.
Used Odin to flash ClockworkMod and TWRP.
I wiped cache and system.
Then I Intalled LineageOS 16.0 + Gaps: Some error while installing, so the instalation was aborted.
LineageOS 15.0/ResurectionRemix/SlimRom+GApps the instalation went fine. But on every one of these Roms the tablet is stuck in the bootscreen of the rom.
Between them I wiped cache and system.
Does someone have an idea what wnet wrong?
You need to read roms instructions .
Clockwork MOD No and use correct TWRP versions .
Thank you for the answer. But can you tell me/or send me a link, where I can read up on how to fix the tablet?
I could set up my windows machine in the sleep, but android, if they where asking me I would still use windows phone.

I'm a bit baffelded.

Can't install Pixel Experience Custom Android 12

I have been struggling to install Pixel Experience Android 12 on my Poxo X3 NFC.
I had PE Android 11 before. When I tried to flash Android 12 I get following error
assert failed: update_dynamic_partition(package_extract_file("dynamic_partition_op_list"))
Updater process ended with ERROR: 1
Error installing zip file ...
What I tried
1, Install latest firmware
2. Format Data
3. Wipe data, dalvik, cache
3. Sideloading Custom Rom
Can someone help me to revive my device please?
Thanks a lot
Hello, on my wife's X3NFC I had to flash the latest Full ROM (12.5.7) via Fastboot.
Then I was able to install the lA12 PE. I don't know why I had to do this, but it worked.
She didn't like A12 PE and now A11 PE is running again on her Phone
Maybe (I heard about that) it works too, if you only flash the super.img from latest Fastboot-Image via Recovery.
