Hi , it's great to see some love for our M9 .Can you tell me if this is compatible with M9 plus as I have not been able to find any info as to the difference between the M9 and M9 plus .They are both identical as far as I can tell as I have both types.

You can try test in your Plus, but if you found any problem... you can try re-port again following porting tutorials. I'm here to see your answer about this.

it works great, however i didn't backup my imei number and wanted to go back to install it. Then i get the brom error with spflash. That's because of software incompatibilities between the software trying to install and the software on the mlais phone. So i'm stuck for the moment i guess.
*edit: had to find the right rom, then flashing worked again without the brom error.

Install Stock ROM, Backup IMEI...

You not backup your IMEI number?
If you put the IMEI number on Mtk Droid Tools and Mystic OS did not recognize the IMEI by dialing *#06# on the dialer, then you will need to reinstall the Stock ROM and then back up with MtkDroidTools.
I also went through the same problem and had tried various methods to replace the IMEI without a backup made earlier.
The method of reinstalling Stock ROM and make IMEI backup on Stock ROM is the only way I could save the IMEI number to computer and restore it in other ROMs that come with the same problem of lack of IMEI present
1. Reinstall Stock ROM
2. Root Stock ROM
3. Backup IMEI with MtkDroidTools
4. Restore the saved IMEI from MtkDroidTools
About problem in SP Flash Tools, Mystic OS installation is only under Recovery. I does not did installation in SP Flash Tools yet.
Thanks because i will do make installations to SP Flash Tools soon.

You can also just install the mystic os as an upgrade to the stock rom with imei number. Then the number will be kept in the Phone. Don't know whether there is another way to get the imei number in the Phone when installed the mystic os or the other cwm based roms. If your Phone is bricked, just install the stock rom with modded bootloader: http://www.needrom.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/ROM-mlais-M9-stock-preloader-mod.rar

IMEI Data is stored in /data/NVRAM dir, in NVRAM folder have this folders:
*APCFG
*dm
*md
Is more easy do backup and restore IMEI with MtkDroidTools... or, if you no have IMEI backup you can generate new nvram files with MtkDroidTools, if Mystic OS recognize the IMEI so you can use MtkDroidTools to store your IMEI in the computer as i said in last reply.
But caution with modded bootloader, flashing a wrong bootloader you can brick you phone permanently.

It's a great rom!
*edit: changed the usb speed and without battery option in flashtool and installed the vcom driver again. Now the flashing of the other roms is also going well, without the annoying vbrom errors.

Emulated storage or Physical storage scheme?

I finnaly can edit the mlais m9 firmware to configure the physical storage to emulated storage scheme and make compatibility with android lollipop scheme and multi-user feature:
Old scheme, Physical Storage:
System Storage - 2GB -> (/data)
Internal Storage - 4GB -> (/storage/sdcard0)
New scheme, Emulated Storage:
System Storage - 6GB -> (/data) shared with emulated internal storage (/storage/emulated/0)
I need now know if the Mlais M9 users will agree with this changes, if the guys like i will provide the versions of the same android, one with Physical storage scheme (default by mlais team) and another with Emulated storage scheme.

You can backup the imei number in a file and move it to the imei map in NVRAM using this tool: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2092589&d=1372973524

I think that the overclock is set in kernel, not in boot.img. You need recompile the device kernel with new clock config but the MediaTek not provide the kernel for Mlais M9 anywhere!

You can extract the boot.img to kernel elements with the tool provided in the attachment. It works under windows. Can you have a look at it?

I use this tool to port 6592 roms to my device. But the boot.img is a juction of kernel with ramdisk only. the kernel is the main file, without kernel source-code you can't make a new kernel file with custom clock configs.
I don't know if is possible disassembly the kernel file...

STORAGE CAPACITY
________________________________________
Flashing this firmware on a 500mb nand chip
Has the following storage results upon first boot
Data/ 80.9mb (was originally 20MB)
System/ 100.5mb (was originally 9KB)
If you wish to flash this to a bigger nand chip simply change the start address and length addresses in the scatter to match your devices partition info
---------☆☆☆MODIFIED BOOT IMG☆☆☆---------
as these R11 max only come with a 512mb NAND chip with OS installed there is only 80.9mb Data and update storage after flash of my firmware,using the modified boot.img allows you to use the devices SD card as the devices ROM & internal storage,
This has not been implemented into the build due to firmware size when pulling,
If you wish to use the modifed Boot.img and SD card you MUST partition the SD card BEFORE flashing the firmware if you wish to use the boot.img which is OPTIONAL rom will work fine without it,
Partition your SD card as follows with 2 partitions in this exact order EXT 4 Cannot be first or you will face data decryption error until rectified.
•PRIMARY partition - FAT32
•PRIMARY partition - EXT4 (label it mmcblk0p2)
To flash with modified boot.img follow steps above for SD card, and steps below for flashing.
__________________________________________
FLASHING THE FIRMWARE
__________________________________________
********This is a "UBIFS" filesystem*********
EMMC storage devices are NOT compatible
Unless you change the scatter to support your file system and even then it may require porting still.
Open SP flash tool, and open the scatter.file and change flash method to download only and click download, plug the device in while switched off and the device will flash,
DO NOT USE "format all + download" unless you have a backup of your firmware and security partition or you WILL lose your imei.

All credit to Luca Roggero for making the extended storage space possible with his modified boot.img within the firmware file

Thanks for taking the time to give this phone proper treatment.
My aunt fell victim to the R11Max scam a few months ago. She gave it to me today so naturally, I came here for a solution.
It only took a few mins of playing with it and my red flag alarm was full tilt. Suspicious apps and running processes were my first clue.
Looks like this phone is getting an upgrade this weekend. Thanks again!!

All good mate,
Ill have another one out in a few days ill post the link to it on this thread for you it will be Samsung S7 themed almost done just a few more minor things,
Juat glad im able to help as the stock OS It comes with is horrible, at least with these build there is space to install apps & if you use the modifed boot.img with SD card you can make it a 4gb or 6GB or whatever size SD card you have just use a decent quality one or your phone will be slow with it.

Awesome! I've got an old 2GB card I'm about to partition for her. It's just going to be used for games she likes to play.
Sent from my Galaxy S5 using XDA Labs

Id probably get something a bit better than a 2GB will be low quality made and will make the system go very slow,
I tried this myself with a low end 2GB was very laggy with the modified boot.img
I then tried with a sandisk 16GB SD HC 1 sd card i paid $12 for it and its like an emmc chip built in to the phone only in an SD card form theres no lag what so ever
New build is close to being done ive fixed a few more things today and have a few more to do and will be out there will be one with google play store installed & another build with only Aptiode store inatalled instead of google play so everyone will be able to choose what they would rather have as an app store

Hey mate,
New firmware is up,
Small bug with storage mounting for app stores without the modified boot.img so modded boot.img is a must until fixed or you wont be able to install apps from the app store,
Everything else is working as far as ive tested link is below, screenshots are also on the post,
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/rom4-r11maxmt6572s00nand-t3878300

Attention all users of R11 max,
A New build will be up in a week maximum, Google play is functional, i have also built a custom recovery for this model R11_Max however wont be released until the new rom is released.
Thread will be updated here with new links when its ready.

New rom is not far away now for the R11 MAX im just finishing up some minor touchups in the meantime i have built a number of custom recoveries for the phones due to 1 there not being any available at all for it & 2 all recovery porting tools do not work with this phone so manually built a number of different styles,versions etc theres TWRP, CTR, CWM, etc even an OPPO touch recovery even that i also managed to build enjoy,
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/recovery-t3892041

Note all R11 max users,
A new rom will be released for this device by me in the near future when released it is advised to update to the latest build, modded with CM but stock 4.4.4 unfortunately that is all i am able to upgrade it to, 6.0 build i am scrapping for now i can get 6.0 apps to install but they just will not run most not at all,
Another note though ive managed to modify the boot.img some more to swap not only the data from
"ubifs" "UBI" "userdata" "/data" to
"Ext4 "EMMC" "/dev/block/platform/mtk-msdc.1/by-num/p2 (EXTERNAL SD)
but also system from
"ubifs" "UBI" "system" "/system" to
"ext4" EMMC" "/dev/block/mmcblk0p3" "/system" (SDCARD)
Not sure if i can get a rom functional to boot from it but TWRP recognises it aswell as mounts & formats it correctly, some useful info incase anyone else wants to give it a go also

All R11 users please be aware that a new build will be uploaded today or tomorrow latest which is a full AOSP CyanogenMod 11 flashable zip,
I will link the thread here was built for hs_q6_mb
But should work on all other variants as long as you use your stock boot.img
New thread will be linked here one completed and rom is uploaded

New rom is up link is here

---------☆☆☆MODIFIED BOOT IMG☆☆☆---------
This Rom for now must use the modified boot.img & external SD card should you wish to use either of these roms due to a mounting error somewhere, no app will install despite there being 70mb + on both builds /data partitions so i need to fix, all works perfect with the modified boot.img,
Partition your SD card as follows using Mini partition tool with 2 partitions in this exact order EXT 4 Cannot be first or you will face data decryption error until rectified.
•PRIMARY partition
- FAT32 label it data
•PRIMARY partition
- EXT4 label it mmcblk0p2
To flash with modified boot.img open the scatter file, click on the BOOTIMG file path & select the modified boot.img,
Insert the newly partitioned SD card into the device and flash the firmware using the instructions on how to flash below.

Modified boot is located within the .zip all credits to luca Roggero for his modified boot.img

can't get it to load with modified boot
i partitioned it as directed on a 32gb card flashed modified boot and it wont load also theres a weird glitch on this rom where once your battery hits about 20% it just instantly drops to 0 also cant install a custom recovery with easy magic (any of them) do u know the code to unlock the bootloader?

Sorry for the late reply ive been busy busy busy making android 6.0.1 for the R11 max its almost finished,
Righto lets get started and get you up and running with the modified boot.img
Firstly how did you partition the Sd card, what partitions were they formatted to exactly and in which order,
They must be formatted in this exact order ill include the info aswell
Label: DATA
Format: FAT32
Type: PRIMARY
Label: MMCBLK0P2 (use lower case letters)
Format EXT4
Type: PRIMARY
i use mini partition magic and it works beautiful,
If the system boots on your device also it means that the boot.img is compatible with the device,
Which means that the modified boot.img is also compatible with your device as the original untouched works and all thats been done to it is the mount points were changed to the ext4 partition on the sd card,
This is everything that was done modifications to files were as follows
mount ubifs ubi @ userdata / data -> mount ext4 / dev / block / mmcblk0p2 / data
mount yaffs2 mtd @ userdata / data -> mount ext4 / dev / block / mmcblk0p2 / data
mount ext4 / emmc @ usrata / data -> mount ext4 / dev / block / mmcblk0p2 / data
mmcblk0p2 is the name of the 2nd EXT4 partition of the sd card, which must be second and not first
The sd card must have 2 partitions, the first FAT32, the second ext4, both primary
Try that and see if it works,
If it dosent boot past the power on logo message back here you may have another revision board as there are a few in which i have a boot.img for 2 of the R11 max boards so will get your phone working with whatever GB storage you set as your partition
Did you also make sure you have the NAND version of R11 MAX also as there is an R11 which is emmc and not nand ? There are 5 variations of the NAND R11 max and 3 or 4 variations of the R11
basic info on the R11 max 5 build versions
Storage type: NAND (typically hynix)
Flash Size: 512mb
DRam 478mb
Radio: 2G GSM
The only diffs for the ones above are the partition infos and the bull**** storage capacity,
Basic info on the R11, 4 build versions
Storage type: EMMC (unknown)
Flash size: 2.5GB
DRam: ( unknown )
Radio: 2G GSM & 3G UMTS
Let me know how you go and sorry for the late reply

Oh by the way what you think is a Glitch isnt actaully a glitch,
Theres nothing i can do about that unfortunately,
In the framework-res.apk battery stats are set in 15% increments to much work for me to fix on the status bar, go to settings then battery and turn your battery % on thats at least accurate
And in physical terms of the battery i hope you dont actually think there a 3000Mah battery,
They are actually cheap chinese lithium cells that produce only 1000Mah and dont last very long at all mine did the same thing around 20% if you know what your doing you can re cell the battery with a samsung cell or similar as long as you are very careful and dont put to much force on the pcb on top of the cell to much and desolder it properly you will have a working battery that actually lasts, i did it to mine but i run a phone repair shop, i dont advise you do it if you are inexperienced in that case find a replacement battery that is decent quality same same size and pin location and youll be sweet.
And about the custom recovery again nothing i can do about that ive built and not used any tools that dont work half the time with so many diff variations of custom recoveries ive made,
Ive packed them with twrp ramdisk and made all edits but they just refuse to boot and only flash white and reset,
The bootloader is pre unlocked as youll notice theres no OEM unlock,
However if you really wanna try yourself,
Connect to the phone via adb and use one if the commands below to get you into fastboot mode, thats as far as youll get though fastboot oem unlock hangs on waiting even though fastboot devices shows the device
Syntax:
adb reboot bootloader
adb reboot-bootloader
adb reboot fastboot
adb reboot-fastboot
Forget which one it is but you can try for yourself,
Ive been trying and trying to get a half decent recovery for the next 6.0 build its still stock but ive done alot of mods to recovery like enabling adb in recovery and redoing the default.prop within it also

guess i'll just hold out
well its working pretty good sans battery life, lol
are you compiling a real marshmallow build? because that will for sure solve the sdcard as internal issue and you can install gapps etc.... the playstore would work etc... it wasn't until marshmallow that google started letting you use your sd a internal, still an awesome job man i love this project, its a hobby of mine taking old bricked or soft bricked phones and trying to get them to optimal standards so far so good! keep me updated on the progress.
I definitely used minitool and followed your instructions to a tee i'm thinking 32gigs is too much for the boot.img i'm going to try and partition it smaller on the fat32 and see if it will boot then, how big do you reccomend i make the mmcblock0p2 partition? i made it 3 gigs could that be the issue? too big?

Hey mate sorry for late reply was finishing up another alcatel U5 custom recovery project,
Yeah battery life isnt the best, next build ive added scripts to optimise battery life, ram and a few other things,
With the build unfortunately i cant fit an entire 6.0 system on a 512mb flash nand it just cant be done unfortunately theres not enough space but im working on that for a later build so at the moment though next build will use SDK23 system components but it will also include mostly SDK20, SDK21 & SDK22 system components that ive managed to merge into it,
Either way the modified boot.img is neccessary regardless, Gapps and play store i can confirm does work perfectly fine on this next build and there will be roughly 50mb so a couple apps can be installed before getting the storage low warning,
Even it if were a proper dedicated 6.0 build though again it would still need the modified boot.img as even though the app has been placed on the sd card it still has to run through the main system at startup and a full memory at startup will not boot the phone so again modified boot.img is necessary,
Shouldnt matter what size you make the partitions either, these boards support up to 32GB TF cards so thats not a problem,
I have a 16GB i made 2 partitions as follows
Data 7.5GB FAT32 primary
mmcblk0p2 7.5GB EXT4 primary
In that exact order & spelt that exact way if it is still not working for you then it is purely a pilot error (being you) as i mentioned normal untouched boot.img packed in with the firmware works correct ?
That means the modified boot.img will work also they are identical apart from the fact that the internal storage has been mapped over to your SD cards mmcblk0p2 instead of your internal mmcblk0p2,
If it is still not working i want you to please take a backup of your firmware and then from that zip up the following into an archive upload it to google drive or whatever you use and post the link to it here so i can download it and have a look at it to see if there are any differences anywhere
RECOVERY
BOOTIMG
MT6572_Scatter_file.txt
I highly doubt there will be any difference as it already works on your PMT info if there were something wrong it wouldnt boot at all even with the untouched stock one,
The boot.img and recovery has been highly modified in the next build so if your facing any probs still ill need to sort it out and possibly make a second version to support it, hopefully not the case tho.

Attention all users of R11 max,
New build will be up in a week maximum, Google play is functional, i have also built a custom recovery for this model R11_Max however wont be released until the new rom is released.
Thread will be updated here with new links when its ready.

New rom is not far away now for the R11 MAX im just finishing up some minor touchups in the meantime i have built a number of custom recoveries for the phones due to 1 there not being any available at all for it & 2 all recovery porting tools do not work with this phone so manually built a number of different styles,versions etc theres TWRP, CTR, CWM, etc even an OPPO touch recovery even that i also managed to build enjoy,
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/recovery-t3892041

Note all R11 max users,
A new rom will be released for this device by me in the near future when released it is advised to update to the latest build, modded with CM but stock 4.4.4 unfortunately that is all i am able to upgrade it to, 6.0 build i am scrapping for now i can get 6.0 apps to install but they just will not run most not at all,
Another note though ive managed to modify the boot.img some more to swap not only the data from
"ubifs" "UBI" "userdata" "/data" to
"Ext4 "EMMC" "/dev/block/platform/mtk-msdc.1/by-num/p2 (EXTERNAL SD)
but also system from
"ubifs" "UBI" "system" "/system" to
"ext4" EMMC" "/dev/block/mmcblk0p3" "/system" (SDCARD)
Not sure if i can get a rom functional to boot from it but TWRP recognises it aswell as mounts & formats it correctly, some useful info incase anyone else wants to give it a go also

All R11 users please be aware that a new build will be uploaded today or tomorrow latest which is a full AOSP CyanogenMod 11 flashable zip,
I will link the thread here was built for hs_q6_mb
But should work on all other variants as long as you use your stock boot.img
New thread will be linked here one completed and rom is uploaded

New rom is up link is here

These are not flashable ZIP files, you need to flash this with Fastboot. Please put this in your post, at least how to flash the files in the right way. Also the batch file in the ZIP is not readable by cmd.
I tryed your flashing steps and now the phone is not booting.

thank you for your work.
i tested first with zui5 and then zui10 they both booted successfully, the only problem i am facing is that vendor and persist doesnt mount, hence mobile network and wifi is not available, and you cant move past the activation screen, so i am working on that
it looks like it is not being mounted because of encryption, so i am force mounting it by flashing it in twrp.

I can't copy MUIU file to internal storage, it says file limit larger than device limit ?
It's more than 4gb

I am on Pie 9. Is that true if i flash MIUI 10, then using QFIL to flash stock Rom, and i can go back to stock???

Copy it on usb or mmc or format your device on NTFS format FAT file system dosbnot support larger files.

FEATURES
• Custom CTR 2.7 lineageos themed by me which is an update from the old 2.2 i was using before
• Boot.img rebuilt from ground up to support Android 6.0 on ubifs UBI system layouts.
• Includes storage fix to make 4GB /data partition
• Custom boot logo created by me
• Custom lineageos aroma installer by me also
• Patched with Magisk V14
• Patched with LOS Root (dev options)
• Patched with nano Gapps
• Camera interploated and tweaked
• System tweaked for ubifs perf
• Tweaked read ahead and writeout for mmcblk's
• Tweaked and rewrote dalvikvm for ubifs perf

• Tweaked R/W options for low end sdcards
Update 2019-10- = Still in debug progression
• Fixed earpeice sensor not working sometimes
• Tweaked out the advan bluetooth and wifi modules and setprop for R11max wifi HW
• Updated modem paths and sockets for new rild
• Added debug props to fix camera flashes back and front as werent working before and also tweaked front camera flash to be brighter, couldnt do much about back as its a low lumen led but have brightened it up as best i can.
• Added NFC services to initrd and some system so far for TCT NFC immersion this will require purchasing an nfc tag if you want nfc
Some other stuff to i will comment below with new link when build is finished being debugged and uploaded in the next few days
NOT WORKING
• Offline charging not currently working should be soon enough
• Charging light not working offline or online ill see what i can do nearly forgot to list this one
BUGS
• You may get a random reboot or two or device may freeze and reboot once or twice this is due to magisk and not lineageos, have rigorously tested and goes away after system settles in
NOTES
• Build compiled using AdvanS4 eMMC sources as a base some modules have been left such as wifi and bluetooth if you have problems with either please let me know
• Once you complete the setupwizard if using a lower read/write speed class 10 sdcard give the device at least 5 minutes to settle in before using it or it will go a little slow until my tweaks kick in, high speed cards disregard this comment
• Tested and perf tweaked using class 10 HC 8GB card thats 6 years old with ancient slow read write speeds compared to todays HC cards, so those using new high speed cards should experience 0 lag at all
• See last picture if you would like to see how i have set sdcard partitions out for this lineageos build.
• If you dont have a scatter file to flash the recoveries let me know and will provide it in a link from google deive via PM i do this to stop people flashing with incompatible partition layouts.
• You will see a corrupt sdcard in settings/storage.....LEAVE IT ALONE... this is your /data partition the system us stating it is corrupt as it is expecting it to be in vfat format whereas it is in ext4 format, if tou format it youll stuff it up.
• Dates are diff in pictures as to what build dates actually are, pictures are old build append date is 20190930 5:35PM as you will find in settings about.
• You will see ViLTE,VoLTE,LTE options in networking settings note that this has not been fully intergrated and will not work on this device i added to system source for LTE devices i will recompile for in future and will save me adding it later for other devices using UBIFS please do not get confused this is GSM-2G radio device only and is not UMTS-3G or LTE-4G.

Hey Matty,
Thanks a lot, the only problem I ran into was that I extracted the rom.zip before transferring I wasn't supposed to do that DOH!!
Cheers for your time and effort in creating this much appreciated! :good:

Hey Matty,
I cant install any app's from the play store though, it just keep's saying "downloading....."
Shall I go ahead and install the latest GApp's?
Thanks
Edit: total guess.... but the phone goes to Australia time zone every time I reboot (I have not activated the sim card yet to set time/ time zone automatically), I set it to UK time/ time zone and it does not download anything from the play store, maybe this is the problem? if I activate the sim will it fix the problem?

Hey mate just seen ya replys,
Okie dokie ill see what i can do bout getting it fixed ill update Google apps on next release with the most updated from openGapps as ive set All google services to /system on the first build,
I beleive the problem with them not downloading also is due to a storage issue on my behalf which i apologise for however ive gotten that issue hopefully already fixed for next build,
Ill see what i can do tonight about it and see if i can push a quick update out as i have been meening to get the second update finished for a while now.
Oh also it being set on aus timezone or country by default shouldnt affect it as default google client database is set to only android-google and not android-google-au so selecting your country and timezone should set default to your needs as such
Cheers

Found the problem with apps not downloading from playstore for the first build permissions and frameworks were somehow left out, got that fixed anyway now just need to finish rebuilding ramdisk and next update will be up in a day or two max
Added tons of performance tweaks to it so runs pretty nicely and smoothly considering its a dual core mt6572 with only 497mb of RAM got swap working more aggressively aswell for users with lower end sdcards inserted,
Just need to fix the ril again as its broken somewhere and need to change the build fingerprint to something of a stock 6.0 rom as ive updated gapps its now stating device is not play certified because its a custom rom

UPDATE
sadly i wont be pushing any more updates for the R11Max China phone as ive dropped it the other day and lcd is completely stuffed,
i can get an emulated screen in gui within os via scr_cpy on pc from github but unless anyone can tell me how to emulate the recovery display for build flashing and testing then im out of ideas unfortunately,
If anyone would like to take my builds and port them or make edits please feel free to go ahead,
I will keep trying to get recovery emulated but its not looking good so at this point development is over for this model unfortunately unless anyone wants to donate there device for a short period of time to finish updates
