Hi, is there any Custom Rom for the Lenovo Lemon 3?
If not, is any developer currently trying to port a rom to this phone?
The only things that i were able to find are tutorials on how to install a rooted version of the stock rom, but i would be really happy if there would be a Rom with clean Android< and (more important) more different languages other then chinese and english...
Theres another Question: Is there any Custom Recovery available for this device? i found aabsolutely nothing onn this, too.
I think both arent allready available due to the Phone not existing that long..
Sorry if there an any mistakes in my language, but english isnt my native language
Thank you for any hint or reference
From where you found rooted stock rom? Can you provide link? And I have Vibe K5 plus ( which is same as lemon 3), so will it work on my device?

But, if you go to use this update, you must be very carefully to flash only the system, not the bootloader or the modem, to avoid brick your device.

Hi,
unfortunately I managed what you have warned about. I flashed the european FW A6020a46 onto my Lenovo K32C36. I set the IMEI code through the QCN file using the QPST tool so I could connect the both IMs to network, but in case 2 SIMs are inserted, the call from either of them will get interrupted after roughly 30 seconds. With 1 SIM everything seems to work fine. Do you have an idea if there is a way back? And if yes, how?
Thanks in advance.
Lenovo Lemon 3 K32C36 > Cyanogenmod 14 - 7.1.1: SUCCESS
Hi
It seems to me that a stock ROM is an unappealing option for the K32C36.

Sprint, Boost Mobile, Virgin Mobile
RIL/Cellular Data on GSI Based ROMs
DISCUSSION:
As most Moto G7 Play owners are already aware, our devices are fully Project Treble compatible. As such, there are several GSI builds of custom Android 9 and Android 10 ROMs that can be installed on the Moto G7 Play and booted using the stock boot image. As is typical on Sprint compatible Moto devices, users are experiencing telephony issues and broken cellular data connections after installing GSI based ROMs. After much trial and error, I have been able to establish RIL and a fully stable 4G/LTE cellular data connection on an AOSP Android 10 GSI ROM. Because the fix involves some rather unorthodox steps, system-level mods and sequential reboots, I am actively working on a simplified fix that can simply be installed via TWRP. In theory, the fix should work on any GSI based or custom ROM for the CHANNEL; however, this theory will need to be tested. The sole purpose of this thread is for such discussions and such testing.
I would urge any owners of the Boost Mobile/Virgin Mobile/Sprint Moto G7 Play to share their individual experiences regarding RIL and cellular data while using GSI based ROMs. My tentative fix is for Boost Mobile only; however, based on past Moto history and theory, a single universal fix should suffice for all Sprint dependent providers. The only key difference should be individualized APN configurations for cellular data.
NOTE: Please do not make ETA type requests on this project. I work long hours and travel regularly. I commit to XDA projects when free time permits. Also, if there are any Sprint of Virgin Mobile users of the xt1952-4, please share your experiences with cellular data on GSI based ROMs.

My signal bar keeps on going in and out on the android 10 GSIs and after I configure the data via apn settings I get Lte but the signal bar goes in and Out so it's pointless ( signal with the x no signal then lte signal for a few seconds) on the android 9 GSIs my signal is solid however no matter what apn configurations I use I'm not able to obtain LTE (same configs give me data on Android 10 GSIs minus the signal bar issue on Android 10 GSIs) can you share the steps in how you was able to fix the GSi boost mobile data and signal and the twrp zip so it can be tested (I need that tentative fix)

Yes. That's what this thread is for. I'm actively working on a simplified fix that can be installed with TWRP, so that data is enabled and stable on reboot. I'm in hopes that this will work on Sprint and its subsidiary networks.

The "manual" method is unorthodox, rather sloppy, and overall unreliable (it does not always survive a reboot). This is the very reason I'm devising a simplified method. Simply put, this is a work in progress. I now know why the fix doesn't always survive a reboot, and I am implementing that fix into the simplified method. My goal is to post a fix that is both stable and universal for all owners of the Sprint compatible CHANNEL. I do not have an ETA. I work long hours and travel frequently, so I commit time to this and other Android projects when I have extra time. The unofficial TWRP for the CHANNEL, created by @Spaceminer, is fully stable and functional for all intents and purposes. It performs a full backup of all pertinent partitions, wipes relevant partitions, and installs zip files written with the Edify updater-script/update-binary.

The Boost Mobile xt1952-4 is locked to the Boost Mobile network. There may be a user-end mod or workaround to enable GSM SIM support for other carriers but I've honestly not researched that topic. I do know the Boost xt1952-4 has quad-band GSM capabilities, so the network lock was undoubtedly put in place by Sprint.
Are you saying that you were using GSM providers while on the retail firmware?

Na I was using my boost sim card (just tried retail since it doesnt have carrier bloat until your fix was ready so I can transfer to a android 9 GSI for daily driver) it was working for a bit calls and Lte and then I got sim card locked please do a reboot cycle and if issue still persist call your service provider so I reflashed boost firmware and the sim lock was removed (My G7 play is not networked unlocked I think if it was I could of used retail firmware with no issues)

Have you tried using the retail firmware but keeping the Boost (Sprint) radio firmware? In other words, install all files of the retail firmware except NON-HLOS.bin and fsg.mbn. This will allow you to run retail firmware with the Boost baseband radio.

Somebody in one of the other threads tried it sometime back and had good results with it. And, as you know already, no real danger in trying it. Not going to hard brick your device. At worst, you may have to reinstall a full firmware package to restore your device.

Glad it worked for you. @PoochyX, I am fully aware you need this fix. You've sent PM,s and made several comments stating your needs. Please don't ask for ETAs or make repeated posts regarding your need for this fix. Again I'm fully aware. I work 50 plus hours a week and do my best to dedicate time to my XDA projects. When it's ready you'll be the first to know. No worries.

Hi All,
Just wanted to check and see how is VoWifi (or wifi calling) working for you guys. I’m in Australia and has an Optus and Telstra sim in my mix 3. Phone is running the latest Xiaomi.eu rom.
I’ve search around google in general and found that to get VoWifi to work there is a need to swap the carrier profile on the Qualcomm chip which I’ve done. I have done did the *#*#VoWIFI*#*# code to disable carrier check. However I’m not able to get wifi calling working at all.
Thought I check in here and see if any of you have better luck and if there are any tricks that I’ve missed and needed to try.
Thanks
Hey guys, I just want to know that Mi Mix 3 support vowifi or not ? Or my carrier have to support that ?
I am confused
VoWifi works when on latest custom roms.

Which one does work? I could not find any confirmed VoWiFi for Mi Mix 3 yet.
Can't remember what rom it was but I have seen it somewhere.
VoWifi ("Anrufe über WLAN tätigen") is working fine for me - Vodafone Germany, Stock Global ROM. Also disabled the carrier check.

Do you have mix 3 or mix 2 ? I am wondering that I have vowifi enable button on same setup page but I don't have volte enable button. Volte already enabled. My mix3 running with android 10 miui 11.0.3.0.
I found my answer Mix 3 support vowifi. But my carrier doesn't support for mix3 vowifi..
Unfortunately it is not that easy with the Mix 3. I have a simcard with working VoWifi in a Redmi Note 8 but with the Mix 3 VoWifi with the same simcard is not working. So it does not relate to the provider only for whatever reason.
Give this guide a try. Works fine for me on K-Classic (O2 Telefonica Germany) on the latest stable MIUI EU ROM. Just make sure to switch to "prefer WiFi" suboption after disabling carrier check and enabling VoWiFi. I also had to enable the profile twice on sub0 for some reason...
edit: seems that's the guide you followed even though you didn't explicitly mentioned it? You should test that your phone does not default to another profile as mentioned here
Appreciate your reply. I found a way to change the profiles without root because I did not want to root the phone. Heard many negative side effects like Google pay no longer working and Android Auto can stop working. I need both.
But with an app call shortcut maker in combination with mbnloader I was able to switch profiles. I stopped testing after a while and gave up. I went for another provider now and will see if it turns out to work with the new one. If someone got the same problem, here the mbnloader:
https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sou...FjAAegQIBBAC&usg=AOvVaw1dWx3npHTnHOpt9a3WkMjo
After installing "shortcut maker" by android_rk from play store and the APK above, start the shortcut maker and go for activities - modem - mbnloader to select another profile.

Three UK. Sort of working on global 9, same on xiaomi.EU 10 rom. Every few days I have to turn it off and on again to connect, but once done works flawlessly for another few days. Had to use the *# code to disable carrier check, as Three UK doesn't officially support it on most phones.

AFAIK you have to unlock your bootloader to root, there is no exploit.
You'll have to get the mi unlock tool and probably wait 48 hours to unlock the bootloader, then flash twrp followed by flashing magisk from within twrp. Just look in the device forums for guides.
You can de-root afterwards, but I doubt locking the bootloader will work, as entries have been tampered with. Google pay/some banking apps might refuse to work after that, btw. There is a patch to gpay though.
Hello!
I just applied for bootloader unlock for my new MI 10 Lite 5G that came with the Global ROM.
I'd rather not use the G apps, so I would really appreciate your help in finding the best ROM version that has all the native Xiaomi apps and settings.
I find myself in a bit of a pickle, as some uncertainties arrose while looking into the subject:
1. Do I have the Monet version? I bought it in Europe.
2. Is there any official China ROM release for this phone? I'm having problems finding one.
3. I would really appreciate if someone with more experience could share his opinion on xiaomi.eu ROMs. Are they stable, do you recommend?
Thank you, any input will be highly appreciated!
Be safe, stay healthy!
Followed!
I need MIUI Dialer with call recorder, working stock camera app, working banking apps (like Google Pay!) etc.

#1 Mi 10 lite (monet) is for the outside china market, so most likely you have monet. The mi 10 youth / zoom (vangogh) is for the China Market. The easy way to find out, if on the camaras is printed 50 x is vangogh, if 48 MP, then is monet.
#2 Unfortunatelly there is not a china rom for monet, only global ones, in which there are two variants, EU for the european market and MI international for the global market. And to bring more misery, only estables ****ty-2,3,4,..months to update. Dev or weekly ones no longer are produce for global market terminals.
#3 haven't tried xiaomi.eu yet ( waiting 7 days to unlock). In general they are as good or bad as the rom's base they borrow it from, minus debload and very few twitches. Yet its the only good choice we have. Miui mix which is the other custom miui, never tried (magisk included in the rom) .
We are f****d

Hi!
I tried both ROMs.
MIUIMIX has been put into BOOTLOOP several times in a row even after a clean installation. Not sure it's a ROM bug, but I haven't experimented with it anymore.
A XIAOMI.EU 12.0.2.0. version is stable, I haven't had a problem with it yet.

Without tried yet both roms (waiting to unlock), it could be a problem with your recovery, i heard pichbkack might have a problem, try twrp from manufrio. Also i presume you did a format data (the yes one)
I will stick with the eu for the time been, don't like that magisk is included in miuimix, I'd rather flash it myself

Hi all,
So I am interested in buying a Realme GT Neo 2, however I will likely buy the Chinese version as it is easier and chaeper for me to find and purchase (Aliexpress).
I see most stores say they will open the box and flash the Global ROM for you before shipping. Not sure how true this is, but anyways...
I wanted to find out if with the Chinese ROM, does it have the same issues as Xiaomi / Redmi with the Chinese ROM where when the device is locked you do not get messages.
For example, with the Redmi Note 11 Pro (Chinese ROM). If I am using Whatsapp or Telegram, it works fine but once I lock the phone after a minute or so when the phone is in sleep mode I do not get messages or any whatsapp / telegram calls.
I have to unlock the phone before those messages are downloaded and come through to my phone - is this the case with the Chinese ROM on the GT Neo 2?
If so, will this be fixed by flashing the Global or Indian ROM? I know with Xiaomi, if you flash the Global ROM then this is no longer a problem. It seems that the Chinese ROM for Xiaomi is very aggressive with how it manages apps when the phone is sleepings or when the apps are running in the background.
This is my main concern and the only thing stopping me from buying this phone now.
@KD6-3.7 Maybe you can give me some advice, you seem to have a lot of knowledge with Realme and the GT Neo 2.

I do not know about that kind of screen off issue. But my Indian Variant one has no issues whatsoever. [ edge lighting is also great! ]
TBH, the neo 2 with Chinese Rom is getting frequent updates + it has access to the RUI 3.0 Beta application.
Whereas the Indian market users of neo2 are stuck on an update which is 2 months+ old...
Also, with chinese rom, you can unlock the bootloader! No such thing as of now in global/Indian ones...
So it is on you entirely, if you want updates faster or not. Also, from what i have seen, MIUI CN usually is always better than the buggy global one. Not sure how realme works.

Also, with chinese rom, you can unlock the bootloader! No such thing as of now in global/Indian ones...
So it is on you entirely, if you want updates faster or not. Also, from what i have seen, MIUI CN usually is always better than the buggy global one. Not sure how realme works.

Alright thanks.
MIUI CN is great, just the way it handles apps in the background / when phone is locked is a problem for me. No Global ROM for the Redmi Note 11 Pro, only expected sometime in Q1 so I had to sell mine unfortunately. My girlfriend has the Redmi Note 10 Pro, global ROM and works as expected.
Tempted to pull the trigger on this Realme, thinking I might ask the supplier to flash to Global ROM just incase. I imagine they'd need to unlock the bootloader and I could always flash back to the Chinese ROM to play around with if need be.
I just cannot afford to have a phone which does not allow for IM apps and their messages / calls to come through when the phone is locked.
This will be my first Realme device, so not familiar with how they work and do things.
If I am able to flash between the various ROMs, I might even flash to the Indian ROM if that has newer updates compared to the Global ROM.
I assume Indian ROM & Global ROM are quite similar and both have Google Apps and English as a language?

Indian is, i think global only, heh.
Also, i dont think that you will be able to unlock the bl once global rom is flashed, although i can be wrong.
If you do use google applications, then yes, you indeed need the global rom.

Hmm, I was thinking and hoping that the supplier will unlock the bootloader, flash the Global ROM and then the bootloader will remain unlocked for me to flash the different ROMs as I wish?
It seems there is really not a lot of info available and most people who are on forums and using these phones seem to be using the Global or Indian version and not the Chinese version - which so far seems to be able to do more and has newer updates.
I can order the Chinese version and ask them to not update to the Global ROM, but then I run the risk of maybe still not being able to unlock the bootloader and having a phone I cannot use properly.
If I can get confirmation that Realme does not have the same issue as Xiaomi do on their Chinese ROMs then I am more than happy to stay on the Chinese ROM.

CN variant will always be ahead in terms of updates.
As for your supplier, he will lock the bl. He has to, cuz if he doesnt, then your play store wont be certified. He will flash and lock most probably.
you can i think ask the seller himself about such stuff, he knows much more , heh.
Im currently using GT Neo 2 China varian rom.
Maybe this is my first time using Realme UI, so some of my problem may not really a problem
Here are some of my experiance for using China variant rom
1. A lot of China bloatware, most of it can be deleted
3. Unable to backup system setting, sms, call log at google account. It will showing error. You may need to backup your data to the realme chinese cloud. Contact and Calender are able to sync with google account.
4. Some of the banking apps are unable to set your device as digital otp token (maybe will fix later)
5. Cloned whatsapp have notification issue. It solve after reinstall.
6. Play Store will not automatically searching new updates and scan hamful apps. It require manual clicking.
7. Unable to use Google Location History function (it not affecting google map fuction)
8. Unable to trasfer my old phone data to new Realme phone using Phone clone app. (maybe have bug for phone clone app)
9. Great battery life. Apps are not allow to run in background by default. (i'm not sure is it Realme UI default setting)
10. High frequency system updates. You may check the latest updates news at Realme GT Neo 2 China Community.
Im using cn.
The only problem Im getting is the CN Apps but you can uninstall / remove then using ADB or manual uninstall only hehe
Thats why CN Version is the best of all version!

Actually is depend. If you very rely of Google ecosystem, the China variant rom might not your best choice.
So I have not pulled the trigger yet and was wondering what the latest software is on the Global ROM vs the Indian ROM?
I am wondering whether I should speak to the seller and see if they cannot put the Indian ROM on for me instead of the Global ROM as I may get updates sooner than on the Global ROM?
I assume the Indian ROM works fine with apps running in the background and when your phone is locked you can still get Whatsapp & Telegram messages and do not need to unlock your phone in order to receive those messages like with the Chinese ROM?

我用的是cn。
我得到的唯一问题是 CN 应用程序，但您可以卸载/删除然后使用 ADB 或手动卸载，呵呵
这就是为什么CN版本是所有版本中最好的！

Hi all,
So I am interested in buying a Realme GT Neo 2, however I will likely buy the Chinese version as it is easier and chaeper for me to find and purchase (Aliexpress).
I see most stores say they will open the box and flash the Global ROM for you before shipping. Not sure how true this is, but anyways...
I wanted to find out if with the Chinese ROM, does it have the same issues as Xiaomi / Redmi with the Chinese ROM where when the device is locked you do not get messages.
For example, with the Redmi Note 11 Pro (Chinese ROM). If I am using Whatsapp or Telegram, it works fine but once I lock the phone after a minute or so when the phone is in sleep mode I do not get messages or any whatsapp / telegram calls.
I have to unlock the phone before those messages are downloaded and come through to my phone - is this the case with the Chinese ROM on the GT Neo 2?
If so, will this be fixed by flashing the Global or Indian ROM? I know with Xiaomi, if you flash the Global ROM then this is no longer a problem. It seems that the Chinese ROM for Xiaomi is very aggressive with how it manages apps when the phone is sleepings or when the apps are running in the background.
This is my main concern and the only thing stopping me from buying this phone now.
@KD6-3.7 Maybe you can give me some advice, you seem to have a lot of knowledge with Realme and the GT Neo 2.

I am CN that this is not the case, there are several options in Settings-Notifications, one of which is to receive messages and reminders and display them on the lock screen, if not, then it is probably because the process of app has been forcibly stopped by the power protection system, to solve this problem, just select not to optimize in the battery optimization interface. The relevant solution may also be in the long press of the icon in question-Application Details-Power Consumption Management)

Well its the whole packed up rom. Depends on how it was compiled.
Interesting
I have Chinese version too.
I think the only deal breakers that i have with the Chinese version are missing notifications and bloatware. I am not sure how it works but it never delivers notifications on time, either they are delayed for 5-10 minutes or hours
I flash global version and really happy with it. Gpay doesn't work but my bank app does
