Hey there!
My name is Thomas and I'm new to this forum. I have a cheap Chinese phone: the UMIDIGI One Pro. It's a really good smartphone provided with stock Android 8.1.
It's been a few weeks since Android 9 came out and I think it's a very good version. I currently use Pear Launcher and Power Shade to have a close interface (I'm a fan of Pie one).
I like hacking and I had a little fun yesterday by rooting my phone with Magisk and installing the God's favorite language with Termux (RUBY <3). Just looking at examples of what I could do with Termux I saw that I could see if my phone supported Treble, and contrary to what I thought ... it is!

I am a newbie so correct me if I say nonsense but I think it would allow me to update to android 9, right? I watched some tutorials but they use TWRP (and I have not found a version compatible with my phone because it is really little known and recent).
I am currently able to use:
- ADB & Fastboot
- Termux
- Magisk
- SP Flash Tools (I used it in order to install Magisk)
- The ROM folder downloaded from the website of my phone: [link blocked as I'm a new user]
But I'm not able to:
- Unlock bootloader (when I restart on fastboot and perform the command "fastboot oem unlock", it asks me to press volume up to confirm because it could void the warranty and then it says "unlock failed"
- Install TWRP (as I don't found any supported version)
Do you think I can update it to android 9? If yes, how?
Thank you very much for taking the time to read me. Sorry if my English is not very good (I'm french).
Thomas!
I found a compatible TWRP version here : [Link blocked because I don't have 10 posts]
So I installed it with SP Flash Tools. :good:
I also found a TWRP for the ONE PRO, but I have the ONE, you think it will work ?
And from what source did you get the boot.img to install Magisk ?
I have the One Pro it's the same phone except you have a bigger battery and I have wireless charging capabilities...... keep me posted because I might want to do the same

Hi My Xiaomi MI4 recently has been showing notification of UPDATE available TO version MIUI 10. Should I update it ?
I've heard it doesn't change nothing at all. and beside it once you update to it, you can't downgrade to previously version.

It may slow down the phone. But it will also give new looks and better features. Also, there is always an option to downgrade if you can use your laptop and spend some time to install any custom rom. (Will also void the guarantee)
It's a good choice to update to MIUI 10.

I've tried the lastest version of MIUI for cancro(MIUI10 8.9.13) for nearly one year. Before Febuary, 2019, I tried the PixelExperience(based on Android 8.1) and its new features & mini size touched me(I can use my face to unlock by Google Smart Lock. And 16GB isn't enough nowadays). But finally I missed the convenient settings and stability of MIUI, and Android 6.0 can still running most of the apps.
Of course, I have deleted some useless system apps(for me) like Mi Video\Mi Game\Mi Browser. In this case, I installed MX Player and Via(also Google Webview Core). To make the ROM better, I also changed the theme(bar, lockscreen), fonts(changed to MiLanPro by an app[because Magisk doesn't work on this ROM]), launcher(with a good icon package) and wallpaper. It doesn't slow down the phone. Just try it!

Hello World!
I have used Huawei Lua U-22 for somedays & flashed some CR there. I have used 3 rom from this post - Custom Roms For Huawei Y3II. Please kindly go to that post to get the download links.
Here, I am only posting some screenshots of those rom because main post didn't include them. Hope you'll 'njoy!
Aosp 5.1Android Open Source Project - AOSP. Another clean and responsive rom for Y3 Lua U-22. The only downside of this rom I think is the ringtone section. Existing ringtones are not that good. Consider using from other source.
I can't remember, but the rom is probably not pre-rooted. I have flashed magisk to gain root access.

How to install the OS? Can you direct me to any thread

Hi,
First of all, I am really sorry I didn't see you commented. Too late :/
Anyway, unfortunately I couldn't find any thread which will guide you how to install the rom. And there is a reason for this - installing a rom is self explanatory, and very easy. You'll need a custom recovery like TWRP. Then keep the rom file in your phone storage, boot the device in recovery mode, select the rom, & press flash. After finishing the installation, reboot device, you're done!
Here are some video for you to understand the situation:
Before that, you have to root your device of course, and unlock the bootloader. Here's a video for that too, if you didn't unlock your bootloader already:
BTW, don't try to install any rom that is not made for Huawei Y3 Lua U22. It may permanently brick your device. I tried to cross port a rom & flash it myself, and guess what? My device is no more :')
Have a good day!
I'm getting desperate now.
MSM tools (EU/Global) get stuck at waiting for devices.
No ADB (unauthorised) or fastboot. In Windows device manager after holding power and both volume buttons for fastboot it's shows as this:

I'm at a loss. Had to buy a new laptop and everything to fix it.
Please help, someone. It's getting depressing now.
Drivers are fine by the way. All upto date. Only ones I couldn't find were the official OnePlus ones, but those should be automatically downloaded after plugging in right?
! is a driver issue.

If this doesn't work for you (make sure you try it with Sha256 checked and lite firehose unchecked), you will have to grab the downgrade package from the pinned post and either use the local upgrade tool or TWRP to flash it.
Thanks again for yesterday, mate. My hero for the day!
Earlier this year I bought myself a Note 10 Pro and I tried a custom Android 12 ROM. I found out that after installing Android 12, it would relock either the recovery or the bootloader. I forgot what exactly, but TWRP would not work anymore after installing 12. Getting Viper4Android or Magisk on it after flashing a 12 ROM was a headache. It was stuck somehow but I managed to get OrangeFox on it and then wiped everything, which allowed me reinstall Android 11. I'm still using 11 and am quite happy with it.
I wonder if anything has changed. I am looking to get a Note 12 Pro and I wonder what your experiences are with it in regards to the use of custom Android 12 ROMs, especially Viper4Android, which I can't do without. A quick search says TWRP is still working on 12 support.. and that is from a news post back in June..

Apologies for posting here but there is no forum for the LG Wine Smart (D486). Mine currently has stock 4.4.2 KitKat. Aw remember that? LG update app no longer functions correctly as it was shut down in 2020.
Is there any way to update this to 5 or preferably 6? There is an app I need that isn't compatible with Android 4.
You have to find
1. A Custom ROM suitable to phone ( specs: 1 GB RAM, 4 GB max storage )
2. If found, a Custom Recovery suitable to phone to flash the Custom ROM found
Many thanks. Sorry for the questions but if you were me, where would you look first?
Alternatively I wanted to make it clear that this phone officially shipped with Android 5.1 later in its life. I just happen to have an earlier 4.4.2 version. Where might I find the official 5.1 ROM and flash it?
Edit: I have found some options that I will try at http://lg-roms.com/lg-firmware/lg-h410/h41010d/2879
I'm not having any luck @jwoegerbauer . It turns out 4.4.2 was the latest official ROM for this phone.
Would you be able to assist a little? If you were me, where would you look first (as in URLs) to get a custom Android 6 ROM and recovery?
I'd like to update to Android 6 or higher. All the apps I want to install require Android 6+.
I'd just need to make sure it can recognise input from the LG Wine Smart D486 keypad.
