Hello world,
following my efforts to create a LOS12.1 build for the Elephone P6000 Pro based on cm12-amami, I have created another cm12-amami based ROM for the
Teclast tPad 98 Octa Core (revision M1E9)
based on ASB security level 2019-04-05. My build includes a TWRP recovery needed to install, as well as instructions in a README, and is available for download from here:
LineageOS for Teclast tPad 98 Octa Core (rev. M1E9) with current ASB 2019-04-05 security patches
Please note that the standard disclaimer applies: When following the instructions, your tablet's warranty is void. Use at your own risk! I am not responsible for any damage or problems you may run into/have.
Owners of other revisions of tPad 98 Octa Core:
It might work out to use this build for other hardware revisons of tPad 98 than M1E9 (such as M1E1 to M1E8 or M2E1 and so on) as well with the changes described in the README - unfortunately, I am not able to test this as I don't own any other revision.
Have fun!
awl
Updated to ASB 2018-09-05. For details & download link see above...

One more time, updated to ASB 2018-12-05 (including some fixes to avoid German O2/E-Plus SIM/network combinations being detected as national roaming).
Download location as before:
LineageOS 12.1 (aka CyanogenMod 12.1) for the Teclast tPad 98 (M1E9) based on AOSP 5.1.1
Have fun!

Have you seen the README file for my ROM? It clearly states:
. Use the MT6753 scatter file from the latest stock ROM available from
http://www.teclast.com/tools/pad/pad.php?t=p
(for M1E9, this is https://pan.baidu.com/s/1bptuKXL for V1.04)

I have just checked both links, and both do work well. (You need to use the Chinese language Teclast webpages, the English ones are completely outdated...)
HTH & best regards
awl
BTW. file name is 98 八核 升级版 (M1E9)-Android6.0-V1.04-9D7B.rar - you might find it elsewhere
If you are still unable to download from baidu (last time I checked, there were several options such as a Chrome plugin) or elsewhere, please let me know.
baidu wont let me download it i did get the MT6753 scatter but sp flash tool gives me this ERROW8417)

I have attached the scatter file only from the tPad 98 M1E9 latest 1.04 stock ROM to this post - hope this helps...
Best,
awl
Sent you a thanks for sending me the scatter.txt
it downloaded the red bar then after that a BROM ERROW
there no life in it anywhere so i think i must have totally bricked it
Using Mediatek's "SP Flash Tool" and the full stock ROM download, you can almost always revive your device (https://androidmtk.com/flash-stock-rom-using-smart-phone-flash-tool) - it is nearly impossible to brick these MTK devices software-wise, so if you don't have a real hardware defect, you should simply select "Format All & Download" with the full stock ROM, and get your tablet working again.
If you still did not succeed in downloading the full M1E9 stock ROM from Baidu, just let me know, and I'll send you a private download link via PN.
Best regards,
awl
hi again and many thanks for all your help baidu still wont work for me could you send me the full stock ROM
ive used Sp flash tools many times before without any problem so fingers crosses i can get it right and all of this so i can have a recovery on it lol
once again many thanks for the stock rom but i had these 3 folders before and noting in them works the sp flash took doesent load so used my own and it gets an errow so downloaded the new V 5.1824 with the same result i get status scatter file invalid
the download-agent is MTK_AllInOne_DA.bin
i really did think this would cure my problem as its a newish tablet hardly use and never dropped
Can you try to make SP Flash tool look like in the attached screenshot? Especially, select "Firmware Upgrade" or even "Format All + Download" instead of just "Download", then hit the "Download!" button and only then connect your tablet (which has to be fully switched off)...
If you are following these instructions, and it still doesn't work, then sorry, I am at my wits' end...
ive used sp flash tools since i had my htc desire years ago and never had this problem before the scatter.txt wont load on the tool
so ive tryed everything as if it wont load how can i flash it lol
am going to try on another laptop thats the only thing left as ive tryed different cables,sp flash tools and different scatter files
let you know if thats any better
hi tryed in on my other laptop and the same result scatter wont load what v of the sp flash tool to you use?

version: SP_Flash_Tool_v5.1820_Win
What exactly do you mean by: scatter file "won't load"? Do you get an error message already when selecting the scatter file in the SP Flash tool, or an error later after clicking on the download button and starting the firmware write process to the device?
Can you post a screenshot of your SP Flash tool (like mine above) immediately before pressing the download button, and then another one showing the exact error message?
Edit:
And have you tried using a different micro USB cable and USB port on your PC? Maybe you simply have a defective cable or port!?
scatter load
View attachment 4719011
ive used all different cables and even a different laptop
first scatter file
View attachment 4719012
or this if i use the first scatter file you sent me
So this means that you get these errors when selecting the scatter file, i.e. even before clicking on the download button?
Just wildly guessing, but: Have you tried to remove the spaces from the path to both (a) SP Flash Tool itself and (b) the ROM image?
I have seen the most weird errors resulting from spaces in file paths when software wasn't able to handle them...
Fingers crossed...
awl
Edit: And please definitely make sure that your tablet is NOT YET connected when selecting the scatter file. Only connect your tablet after clicking on the Download button.
no the tablet is not connected to the pc and i took out the _ and even renamed the .txt but still wont load onto the sp flashtool
its all very strange how you can get it to work and i cant!!!
---------- Post added at 03:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:15 PM ----------
yep still the same the scatter files out of the Chinese folder wont work infact the sp tools out of the chinese folder wont load
so non of the stuff in the 3 chinese folders doesnt load on any of my laptops

This method successfully installs the CWM on the phone. CWM version supplied by ZOPO does not work. Use the CWM posted in the second link
I am a still learning and not a developer !
Hi All ZOPO ZP900 Leader Owners,
This is a guide for Installing Clock Work Mod Recovery Image on ZOPO ZP900 Leader Phone. Most of the owners of this fantastic phone would have desperately tried like me to install CWM on this phone (some may have found success). ZOPO does gives an option to order the phone pre-rooted however they do not install CWM ....or for that matter there is no Stock Recovery on the phone !!!. Start the phone with Power + Volume Up button pressed and your presented with an image of sick Android lying down with a Red triangle coming out of his opened stomach :laugh:
DONT TRY TO USE ROM MANAGER APP TO INSTALL CWM, THIS WILL ONLY BRICK YOUR PHONE !
So after breaking my head for couple of days, searching the net, downloading stuff I have successfully installed CWM !
So here are the steps !.
What you need
1. ZOPO ZP900 Leader phone
2. Download Fully working English CWM from here http://www.4shared.com/file/16vuWyiU/recovery.html. The one posted in Zopo website does not work.
3. Download latest SP Flash Tool for MTK6577 from here http://www.4shared.com/zip/Xgc3G_hB/SP_Flash_Tool_v3122200.html
4. Download the latest Stock ICS ROM for ZP900 from Zopo website link http://www.4shared.com/rar/hGY2ahbu/MP_MT77_root_en_play_fix_zp900.html
5. Download MTK6577 Driver from Zopo website http://www.4shared.com/zip/YXlLFoLm/6577driver_install_3_steps.html
Installation Steps
1. Unzip and Install the USB drivers on your Windows PC using the MTK 6577 Driver Zip file. There will be 3 folders named First Step, Second Step & Third Step. Open First Step install the MTK driver MSI file. Post completion open Second Step, click on ClickInstall Driver, it will automatically install the USB driver. Press Exit after installation (Win 7 may give error that installation was incorrect, just ignore)
Repeat the same for folder Third Step
Connect your phone switched off and battery removed using USB cable. Windows will recognize and install the MTK drivers for your phone (any free COM ports) will be configured. Disconnect the phone. Put the battery back but do not switch on the phone
2.Extract the latest ROM folder from downloaded ICS ROM. You will get 2 folders
database
MP_MT77_h958_zp900_zwx_ics_20120912-155136_TSZ_PC
Open the second folder (MP_MT77***). This is the folder that has all the image files. You will find recovery.img file. This is original file. You can either rename it or keep a back up and delete it.
3. Copy the new CWM recovery.img file that you downloaded from ZOPO website in this folder. Rename it to be recovery.img
4. Extract and run SP flash Tool.exe (the one with Blue image icon)
5.Click on Options, USB Mode will be checked, DA Download All will be checked, in the sub options Speed will be Checked High Speed, Battery select With Battery. Come to the main Application window
6. Click on Scatter-loading button which is on the right side below Downloading Agent. A window will open. Browse to your extracted ICS ROM folder, click on folder MP_MT77****. By default you will have only one map file of name MT6577_Android_scatter_emmc. Select this
7. The flash tool will populate the Map file on the application window. You will see multiple Entries such as
PRELOADER
DSP_BL
MBR
etc etc. Each will have a check box which is by default checked.
8. UNCHECK all entries EXCEPT FOR "RECOVERY". Leave Recovery checked.
9. Now click on "Download" on the Application or press F9 on keyboard. A warning message will pop up. Press YES
10. You will see in the status bar below "Searching"
11. Connect your phone (switched off and with battery inserted) via the USB cable.
12. Flash tool will do its stuff. First a red progress bar, then a count down, a quick yellow progress bar and final window showing Green Circle.
If you get this the Congrats You have flashed CWM !
Check by unplugging the phone and re-starting it with Power+Volume Up button Pressed. The Phone will boot into CWM !.
Enjoy !
Warning - Please follow the instructions. Don't mess around with anything else. Not responsible if you do anything else and brick your device !
In case you get any other error on SP Flash Tool, then recheck your MTK driver installation. Try on another PC.
Now I hope this opens the door for many other things !
Additional Info -
Install PDAnet from here http://www.junefabrics.com/android/download.php or Snappea from www.snappea.com to make your device get recognized when connected to the computer. Install this with your phone switched on, this software installs the necessary drivers for the phone, post which you can use flash tool.

The CWM from taiwan101 for the 9300+ seems to be working fine. I was able to install .zip file from SD card. However the CWM is in Taiwanese, so if anyone can provide the CWM in English, thanks in advance
link for 9300+ CWM http://d01.megashares.com/dl/KicT315...M_Recovery.rar
UPDATE - Finally got a full working English CWM for ZOPO extracted from Mod ROM posted thanks to Kyrie1965. Tested and everything is working. Download from here http://www.4shared.com/file/16vuWyiU/recovery.html

This method successfully installs the CWM on the phone. CWM as such works (able to navigate through the menus etc) but some of the function such as Install from ZIP, Backup etc, mount are not working, Gives an error Unable to Mount Sdcard !. Not sure if the issue is with CWM version supplied by ZOPO, need to try with other/older versions of CWM.
Please feel free to post links of CWM that works

Check your device drivers USB driver has not been installed properly. I faced this issue and after multiple attempts of reinstall of USB drivers the flash tool started working properly
Also you can try installing PDAnet from here http://www.junefabrics.com/android/download.php
Install this with your phone switched on, this software installs the necessary drivers for the phone, post which you can use flash tool.
Note Connect the phone to flash tool first without battery, in options select with battery, press download after selecting the required file, when it says searching unplug the phone put battery back, dont switch on, plus back the usb. The flash tool should load the required file.

It will flash the entire ROM again. My guide was specifically for flashing only the CWM and not the entire ROM. I wanted to keep the Stock rom intact as it came from ZOPO.
Word of caution, I am yet top try flashing the complete ROM so if you are trying ensure that your have taken a backup via CWM (if already flashed) of your existing full working ROM before attempting anything. Also flash only ZOPO Stock or customised ROMs,
From where did you bought this mobile?
Does the imei start from 355,889,3535
Is it ips 1gb ram .

When the program asks to replace some existing drivers, you should do that.

I just was successful in installing the driver for MT65xx Preloader (had to manually install it during the flashing exclamation mark).
When I now connect the phone without battery, I have no more exclamation marks.
Now, when I start the flash tool and connect my device without battery I get every time a different error and a window that pops-up with some (vague) explanation. Also the bottom bar of the flash tool becomes red.
It does not look good to me and I have to dive into more details to see what I should do.
In the device manager I do not have further exlamation marks ....to be continued.
So, it seems I am now on the same level as you are.
Thats right.
I think that this error means that we have to mark all files on the list but we don't have these files on the computer. I read some hint on similar tutorial (with only recovery checked on the list)
"Please note that, even though it isn't mandatory to select it on the list of images to flash, preloader file must be present in the same folder as the other partition(s) that you want to flash, or else phone will not be able to enter into download mode."

the easyest way to install the needed drivers ist to install the app pdanet: h t t p:// junefabrics.com/android/
if some drivers are missing you can find also drivers in the zip files
I attached 2 zip files.
1.) use the files in root.zip with SP_Flash_Tool_v3.1222.00 to flash patched root and recovery with working cwm (english language, searched a while for that)
2.) file root.zip is meant for rooting with cwm (use only if flashing files from 1. does not the complete job)
hint: I struggled a bit on connecting the pone: press power and volume up and plug USB in was only working with attached battery
cheers and sorry for my bad english....
hi, do you know how to upload to phone another language (czech language)? or link to another custom rom. I fail to find anything. Thanks a lot

Thank you poweronat.
Just one question: if there is something goes wrong, how can I restore previous situation?
Thanks
Please google for "How to Root JiaYu G3 + working Recovery mode"
to get a full description of backing up boot.img and recovery.img
if youve done this right you should have a backup of your boot and recovery partitions which can be stored back if a fault occours.
the partitions should be the following (please re-check with your device):
boot: F88000 - 1588000 = length of 600000
recovery: 1588000 - 1B88000 = length of 600000
good luck

I receive access vaolation error when i try to start SP flash tool
i really need help
aha, dont know this, sorry.
ive done this with windowx XP phps you do have another machine to test this on
Hello together,
i've tried to root my new Tinji GT-i9220 with an MT6575 processor but im stuck.
Im 100% sure that i installed the drivers right.
First i have tried most of the one click tools without any noticeable success.
Than i followed this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1923764) tutorial.
On my phone there are no mmcblk's but mtd's so the so i saved the scatter file generated by MTK Rom Studio (for some reason it suggest MT6573_Android_scatter instead of 6575) without the "_emmc" at the end.
Because of the missing "_emmc" i have to choose between 4 different Read Methods when reading the boot and recovery.img from the phone
"Read Page + Spare", "Read Page Only", "Read Spare Only" and "Read Page With ECC".
The Files created by "Read Page + Spare" and "Read Spare Only" produces error messages when TWRP or MKTDroidTools try to modify the files.
The "Read Page Only" and "Read Page With ECC" files pass through TWRP fine, but when im trying to upload the modified recovery.img to the phone in SP Flash Tool i get the Following Error:
BROM ERROR : S_DA_DRAM_NOT_SUPPORT (3004)
[H/W] The handset doesn't support DRAM. Please ask for help.
Click to expand...

And here i am asking for help
Is it correct to choose "Read Page Only" while reading the files from the phone?
Does anyone know what else i can try to get the phone rooted?
Let me thank you for any help in advance.

Another question i've made a backup of every mtd on the phone, but if i load the scatter file SP Flash Tool throws the error
BROM ERROR : S_DL_PC_BL_INVALID_GFH_FILE_INFO (5066)

for the DSP BL and Preloader.
Does anyone have an idea why?
Problem solved
Okay i solved my problems, had to remove some empty bytes from DSP_BL and Preloader files to get SP Flash Tool to load them correctly.
After that i found out that i had to take the yaffs2 images i've created with the "Read Page and Spare" option and then delete a bunch of bytes to make them readable for unyaffs once unyaffs was able to read them i was able to flash them to the phone.
After i managed to boot again, rooting the phone was kinda easy, i know that some people also have problems rooting exactly this phone so if anyone is interested i could upload a prerooted rom without the preinstalled chinese apps.
Is there an option to mark a question as solved?
Not for me. I have the same problem !

Hey,

I get a similar error when I try to load the preloader and dsp_bl which I have generated with another exactly same type.

Basicly i just looked at the files i have generated with SP Flash Tools and the ones of other MTK6575 phones in an hex editor.
Ive noticed that all i all the other preloader files started with the same "MMM" string, so i just deleted anything in front of the first occuring of "MMM" in my preloader file. I also had to remove a bunch of bytes at the end of both files but i dont remember how i figured out how many
I could look at the files and maybe tell you more when im done with work
Partially solved but still problems

I tried to remove the bytes before the "MMM" and some tentative removing others at the end but I did not succeeded in the ingestion of the preloader and dsp_bl files into the SP Flash Tools. On the other hand, I have processed the files with MTK Studio Pro and now the ingestion does not create problems. The phone now can at least boot in the recovery mode (for some reason not in the download mode), SP Flash Tools can see the nand and transfer the files.
However, I'm getting problems with other files, "sec_ro", "fat", "system" (or "android"), "cache" and "usrdata" when downloading (or update firmware).:crying:
The error is "s_ft_nand_readlen_not_page_alignment".
I tried to read the files again many times, also with different format page, spare, etc... with the other working phone obtaining the same error.
Any suggestion ?

then I tried to update the firmware to the latest 151111 and no go, in the end i managed to delete the operating system so now I can boot to recovery mode only, When I try to restart it comes up with No OS Installed, I have tried to install xposed v79 sdk21 arm64zip no go, Ok now I know that I am an IDIOT for
not making a backup of original system and not cheking the firmware was the same as the root guide,
On the top of recovery screen is :- 2.8.7.7 SevenMaxs and TeamWin Recovery Project, I guess this could

Well i did it. Is really simple but it seems nobody has this problem before. You need
- Download Stock Firmware from russian lenovo site
- The Tool i used is QPST_2.7.422 QFIL it cames with the Drivers (i used Win8.1)
- Put phone in Download mode (press vol up and down same time and connect phone to PC)
- Open QFIL program and select flat build
- In select programmer you select prog_emmc_firehose_8936.mbm
- In load xml i selected rawprogram_unsparse and path0
- After that you click download and wait like 4 min and when say finish succesfully you start phone manually
I hope this helps.
Thanks brother, yesterday i downloaded one russian rom in zip format and there was a .bat file included in it. i only double clicked and it flashed through adb and fastboot and it was successfull. i got the operating system 5.0.2 but WLAN is not working, tried flashing several time but no luck. i learned that it is still under warranty ..so sent it to warranty. in a week it will be back with be for testing again hopefully.
well i will try your method as soon as i get my beast again. Thank you so much for helping out in timely manner, really appreciate it brother.

it is very easy my friend just look into the only topic/thread about Phab plus in xda. it will guide you well.
if you get any error in recovery like footer is wrong/signature verification failed. connect your phone and first check if your device in being tracked by adb. use adb devices.
if your device appear in the list of devices ..use fastboot oem unlock then flash sevenmax twrp again after entering into temporary twrp as per phab plus thread.

Could you please elucidate more? I downloaded the ROM and the flash program. However, I've no clue how to get going. I don't even see the xml files anywhere (as mentioned by you).
Just don't want to screw it up bad so being little more cautious.

My phone was wiped by me . I have TWRP and my phone is read as ADB interface (when in recovery mode). I tried adb devices and it returned 1f82f24b recovery. I also can access my phone memory from PC when in TWRP recovery which enables me to transfer files.
My problem is it is only read as ADB interface not as Qualcom COM port device. When I try Download_with_partition.cmd I get the error that it can not distinguish devices and to try. Any solution by those managed to install it successfully?
For everyone landing in this page due to wiping his OS of Lenovo Phab Plus by mistake (like I did), please refer to this thread:

Hello all, so long story short I had bought a BLU G9 Pro which came with Android 9 Pie. The only device-specific guide I could find online about obtaining root was: https://www.getdroidtips.com/root-blu-g9-pro/
The information on that guide is trivial and can be applicable to almost any device. The root method worked, however, there was an OTA update to Android 10 (and then later a security update) which I took. I then attempted to re-root the device utilizing the same method. However, now it seems that everytime I flash a Magisk modded boot.img my device gets stuck in a bootloop and will not go past the bootloader. I believe that this device may be uncharted territory but it is a great phone and I would love to have both Magisk root and the latest Android 10 firmware. I have found that Magisk supports both Android 10 and A-only devices so I do not see what is causing the problem. Additionally, I attempted to flash an AOSP GSI of Android 10 which refused to boot before I even installed Magisk. I am new to modern Android devices with Project Treble so please forgive me if there is something obvious I am missing. Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance!
@eLatErbI
Try flashing GSI like said in https://source.android.com/setup/build/gsi#flashing-gsis
May be vbmeta flashing is required for your device.
You can get vbmeta.img from your stock firmware.
It seems that Verified Boot could definitely be getting in the way. Could this possibly explain why Magisk is working on the Android 9.0 version of the stock ROM but not Android 10? However, I thought Magisk disabled verified boot in the kernel (boot.img) also I do not have a vbmeta.img in any stock firmware for this phone. Any other means of disabling verified boot? Thanks in advance!
Hi, I have the same problem with my G9 PRO, I tried to boot all kinds of GSI roms with and without magisk and it doesn't work (bootloop). I cannot find the vbmeta partition anywhere so I am hesitant to try to flash it without a backup. There is a mention of it in the fstab of the boot partition, however it is not in the stock firmware or in my own backups. Magisk did also work for me before the Android 10 update. Does anyone have an idea of how AVB works without a vbmeta partition or a verity file?
You can extract the boot.img from your phone if you updated to 10. I updated and used SP Flash to read the boot.img and WwR_MTK to get the partition length and starting value for the boot.img and patched it using Magisk and reflashed it over fastboot. I know this thread is a bit old but if anyone is interested, reply and I will post the link that explains. I have Android 10 running on my Blu G9 pro rooted.

Hi. Please post the link. It will be very helpful for me. I have the BLU_G0231WW android 10.
Here is the link: https://forum.hovatek.com/thread-21970.html
This is what I did to root the phone:
Download WwR_MTK 2.30 and SP Flash (I used version 5.2112)
**Open WwR_MTK 2.30 and create a basic Scatter File by choosing the Platform Type (processor) which for Blu G9 Pro is MT6771. Click create and save as - I saved all files in one folder.
**Open SP Flash Tool and under the download tab choose the scatter file we just created it will have only Preloader under it.
**Go to the Readback tab press Add -- Double click on what was added and just keep it saved as ROM_0 (once again I saved it in the same folder as the scatter file) -- the Start Address is in the scatter file as "physical_start_addr:" it should be 0x0 and the length is "partition_size:" and the value should be 0x80000. Keep the Region as EMMC_USER unless you want the preloader but to get the boot.img we don't need that. Turn off your phone and press the Read Back button with the Arrow and plug your phone into the computer. It will read the file and give you a big Green Check to let you know it completed succesfully.
**Once you have the ROM_0 open it up in WwR_MTK 2.30 Under Step 3 (Choose the EMMC_USER partition in the prepared backup) you will get an error that says "The file size is smaller than the start position of the LK (uboot)" press OK -- You will get another error that says "To determine the ype of process and memory.... blah blah blah" Press OK
**Click the Scatter File tab -- Under the Name field find boot. We now get the starting value of the boot.img and the partition length. We need these values to put back into SP Flash.
**Go to SP Flash and Readback tab again. Press add. Double Click the new add and save it as boot.img -- Region is EMMC_USER and the start address is going to be the HEX value next to Boot and length the length address next to boot. For the BLU_G0231WW_V10.0.04.07_GENERIC Build these addresses are:
Start: 0x20C00000 and Length: 0x2000000
Push ok when you put the start address and length for the boot.img and once again push Readback and connect your phone while off. The File size I got was a boot.img of 32,768 KB in size which is much bigger than the boot.img of the Android 9 (which was like 9 MB in size).
**Install Magisk on the phone and patch the boot.img and flash it with fastboot and boom, you have a rooted BLU G9 Pro with the latest Update. Keep your stock boot.img as I rooted my phone with the 10.0.04.04 update and could not update to 10.0.04.07 until I reflashed the stock boot.img in case there is another update.
That is all there is to it and you should be able to use this tutorial to root if BLU pushes anymore updates.

**Go to SP Flash and Readback tab again. Press add. Double Click the new add and save it as boot.img -- Region is EMMC_USER and the start address is going to be the HEX value next to Boot and length the length address next to boot. For the BLU_G0231WW_V10.0.04.07_GENERIC Build these addresses are:
Start: 0x20C00000 and Length: 0x2000000
Push ok when you put the start address and length for the boot.img and once again push Readback and connect your phone while off. The File size I got was a boot.img of 32,768 KB in size which is much bigger than the boot.img of the Android 9 (which was like 9 MB in size).
**Install Magisk on the phone and patch the boot.img and flash it with fastboot and boom, you have a rooted BLU G9 Pro with the latest Update. Keep your stock boot.img as I rooted my phone with the 10.0.04.04 update and could not update to 10.0.04.07 until I reflashed the stock boot.img in case there is another update.
That is all there is to it and you should be able to use this tutorial to root if BLU pushes anymore updates.

Thank tuffasagong.
I now have my blu g9 pro magisk rooted on Android 10. I added viper4Android, Adaway and more tweaks.
Have you noticed the desktop mode when screen casting to second display? I wonder if there is a way to reduce lag when using bluetooth mous.

Which version were you on? The latest at the time? A little more info did you flash a Magisk patched boot image?
Blu pushed out a new update 10.0.04.08 a couple weeks ago. Reflash the stock Boot image to update. Boot image has the same length and start addresses. I just reflashed the magisk Boot image I made with 10.0.04.07 and works fine.

This is what I did to root the phone:
Download WwR_MTK 2.30 and SP Flash (I used version 5.2112)
**Open WwR_MTK 2.30 and create a basic Scatter File by choosing the Platform Type (processor) which for Blu G9 Pro is MT6771. Click create and save as - I saved all files in one folder.
**Open SP Flash Tool and under the download tab choose the scatter file we just created it will have only Preloader under it.
**Go to the Readback tab press Add -- Double click on what was added and just keep it saved as ROM_0 (once again I saved it in the same folder as the scatter file) -- the Start Address is in the scatter file as "physical_start_addr:" it should be 0x0 and the length is "partition_size:" and the value should be 0x80000. Keep the Region as EMMC_USER unless you want the preloader but to get the boot.img we don't need that. Turn off your phone and press the Read Back button with the Arrow and plug your phone into the computer. It will read the file and give you a big Green Check to let you know it completed succesfully.

I've followed this and have gotten quite far but I can't seem to find any working fastboot drivers for the G9 pro, I have tried several different ones and with every one I get absolutely no hits on "fastboot devices" and upon any attempts to flash, it leaves me at "waiting for device" I just want to know if you had a specific driver or if it's different issue

Use the Platform Tools for A9 or A10.
Downloads - Read and accept the terms.: platform-tools-latest-windows.zip
Device need OEM Unlock & USB Debugging enable.
Maybe your PC need USB Drivers: drivers USB OEM
Maybe need MTK USB driver: MTK Driver

First off, thank you for your really speedy assistance with this, I appreciate it.
A couple things, to note, the device has already had OEM unlocking and usb debugging enabled, it works with adb, but is not recognized at all by fastboot itself, I'm definitely going to try those drivers and that version of the platform tools. Is there any log, device list, or any other info I can dump that would be useful in troubleshooting this?
Thanks again for your assistance, lopestom.

Bootloader unlocked?
Authorization PC vs device already has with USB debugging?
If yes so look drivers.
Hello there,
My technical skills when comes to android phones is next to zero, but I have been running linux (Fedora, Endeavour, currently Debian 11), I am not affraid of the terminal.
I have bought a Blu g9 pro, like 3 months ago, it came out of the box with android 9, then It updated to android 10.
It is very close to stock android, and I am ok with it, exept for a few creepy apps that I would like to remove,
I would like your input on what is the safest aproach, can I just 'debloat' the current system? or might as well replace it with something else?
Thank you.
I attempted to flash the patched boot image from Magisk but my G9 Pro started boot looping. I've tried to flash every firmware that I can find for this model but I keep getting an error message from the Flash tool.
Any guidance?

Saved me - TY. This worked for me for Mintt Ultramintt Y3 - basically an Aussie rebadged Blu G9 Pro. I used this method for it with Pie 9 (before allowing update to 10). Cheers
