Wilson3q CM12 to MIUI 7

Hello all,
I want to move from CM12 (Wilsons3q) to the latest MIUI 7 Global Stable. Im having a problem getting my phone recognized through the MiFlash program I originally used to get to CM12. I go into fastboot mode on the phone but the program does not recognize the phone. Ive tried this on 2 different computers. I installed the universal ADB drivers and still nothing. Does anyone know why the phone isnt recognized anymore?
I searched through the previous topics and found no answer to my question. Thanks guys

Solved.
Turns out all I had to do was flash the .zip from MIUI with TWRP recovery
It failed the first time so I did it a second time and it worked great.
Leaving this here for anyone else who may run into the same question/ problem

you flash the update zip through twrp recovery?

NO! Dont flash the update.zip
Download the global version from miui.
the name of what I flashed was "miui_MI4iGlobal_V7.1.1.0.LXIMICK_15c5da242c_5.0.zip"

Oh I see. I didn't know you were using stock recovery. Im not sure completely, but im assuming that would be safe.
Edit: on second thought, maybe not. I dont have enough information about your situation, what ROM are you running now? im not sure how the stock recovery interacts with different ROMS

[RECOVERY] [F1f-Spectrum] [TWRP-3.1.1-0] For Project Spectrum Bootloader ONLY!

This is an unofficial port of TWRP Recovery for the Oppo F1F on Project Spectrum Bootloader. Much Thanks and credit goes to the TWRP team, Lineage team, and brinleyaus for making this possible. This will allow flashing of modification zips (eg. supersu, magisk, xposed, etc) over the top of Project Spectrum or flashing spectrum based ROMS.
Instructions:
Already running Project Spectrum
- If you haven't already unlocked you bootloader you will need to go into SETTINGS > ABOUT PHONE and tap BUILD NUMBER 7 times to unlock DEVELOPER OPTIONS, Then go into SETTINGS > DEVELOPER OPTIONS and enable them, also enable ADB DEBUGGING and OEM UNLOCK. Now reboot into fastboot (adb reboot bootloader) and run fastboot oem unlock.
- Install this image file through fastboot (If you are unsure of this step follow one of the many tutorials about installing TWRP through fastboot)
On ColourOs with TWRP
- Do a full wipe first or the install will fail. (In TWRP hit WIPE then swipe to factory reset.) Do a backup first as you will lose data.
- Flash this zip file through twrp and then hit "wipe dalvic and cache", then hit HOME then REBOOT then RECOVERY. (rebooting to the new recovery will ensure the recovery sticks) then Flash any Spectrum based rom or restore any Spectrum based backup. NOTE the ColorOs system and boot.img will still be there but wont boot so you MUST flash or restore a Spectrum based rom before you reboot to system.

Which file are you talking about, I just checked the links and the flashable zip was actually pointing to the full ROM which defiantly has the 3.1.1-0 version. (I just fixed the link to point at the bootloader, firmware and twrp zip.) Are you rebooting to recovery after flashing to make it stick?

Not just yet, just got to work out the ramdisk changes needed to get ported roms to boot properly with spectrum kernel, then I'll share the info with you and then let the porting begin.

No, Read the OP of this thread. There is a zip (and instructions) to return to ColorOs Bootloader,firmware and TWRP. From there you can flash any TWRP flashable ColourOs based Rom (ColorOs or LineageOS) or restore backups from them.

Which root method will be used for this?

Port of the Nova3e official rom to ANE-LX1

Update of April 17
Hello everyone,
The Beta version for the ANE-LX1 C432 has been available since the 15th.
If you had already installed another beta version, here is the procedure to follow everything in place:
We will use the utility Beta-Downy0.4 (very slightly adapted to P20 (TWRP)) Thanks to @Androlark and @side_flip15.
Link : Beta Downy
1) Download the latest rom on fimware finder
2) Decompress the files and rename the file update_xxx_hw_xx.zip in update_all_hw.zip
3) Copy zip files into ZIPS-HERE
4) Launch Flash.bat
5) Follow the instructions ?
Troubleshoot:
If the update does not go to the end, do not panic reboot the phone in recovery (TWRP to disappear) and push on low level formatting.
Restart Flash.bat.
ATTENTION ALL YOUR DATA WILL BE DELETED MADE BACKUP
Update of February 12
I managed to adjust the crashes in the settings. And at the same time the opening of the phone manager.
here are the links to the patch to flash with TWRP.
Warning only do it on a firmware EMUI9
Patch HwSystemManager
If someone tells me how to make my functional rom flashable without you risking a brik. I'm listening.
I'have too an update.APP with the HISIUFS_GPT.img
Hello,
I started wearing the Nova3e 9.0.1.100LOG build.
But I have a problem with the Vendor flash
With HWOTA crashing to 50%.
On the other hand in low level format (Emui Recovery).
Everything seems to work, but I think that since I can not flash vendor, I do not have Gapps ahpps.
I try changing the install.sh openGapps but even the system partition is too big ...
If anyone has an idea ... I'm a taker.
I specify that I am new to this kind of hack ...
Edit 06.02
I managed to flash the PICO Gapps by editing the install.sh file.
the modified zip download : Modified Gapps
How did I do:
1) Check that your bootloader and FRP are unlocked
2) Install Firmware Finder on your device
3) Download the firmware for the ANE-AL00C01 (9.0.100).
4) follow the HWOTA method of @vovan1982 attention only change the firmware not brand. it only takes two files (no data_public). at home that's what it has messed up at startup 50% of maj ...
5) I extracted the update.app with huawei extractor.
6) I flash the Kernel, the system and the recovery. via fastboot.
I had a Huawei recovery message telling me that we had to do a low level reset. then it goes to work.
it is not a certain procedure. and you have to know that at update I was not in stock rom.
If you reproduce it's at your own risk

Hi,
Can you show us more screenshots of EMUI 9 on the P20 lite? Or maybe you could make a video where you can show us the new gestures?
But amazing and fast that you got it working!
Cheers

If my understanding is correct you ported the EMUI 9 from Nova 3e to the P20 Lite? If so then can you please provide download links? As it will be helpful for us. Maybe it will boot on other hi6250 device. Thanks.

Indeed it is not a portage (I did not change the firmware) and indeed also I do not recommend it.
I think I was very lucky ...
I succeeded without touching the oem.
Do not seem to touch the OEM at all
But I think my phone is now a hybrid.
I used the HWOTA method to change the firmware.
For me everything works well, but I know it can break a phone.
If you really want I can put a zip online but I do not think it will help.
Arnys, I'm far from an expert in this kind of hack but it seems to me that the partition system changes from 8 to 9 so a simple zip backup of my phone could not be flashing on a version 8?
I would take some screen shot and a video of the gesture navigation

Hmm. I know a couple of people who managed to boot EMUI 9 including me. But touch doesn't work as we are trying to boot it on a Kirin 655. The solution is a custom Kernel but since Huawei hasn't released the sources yet, we wait. At least it boots flawlessly tho.

Install stable ROM from Open Beta 8

Hi there!
I want to go back to stable ROM but I don't find the way to do it.
-From stock recovery: I don't have any option to install from internal storage.
-From System updates: Appears the message "the package version is lower than current. You can't install it..."
How can I go back to stable?

Wait until the stable tree has caught up with the beta.
Do not take any additional beta software and wait for the state tree to pass the beta.
This will allow you to upgrade and not rollback.
This will allow you to keep your data and not wipe.

Just check xda or OnePlus (you can use Oxygen Updater app too) from time to time to see when the next stable is released. Once that happens, download the zip file and try the local upgrade via system settings.
If you want to do this, DO NOT update your system to the newest Open Beta anymore if one is released, wait for the next stable.

You could encounter some serious issues by dirty flashing a stable over a beta. The best option is to always do a full wipe

Can you backup data only using TWRP on beta and restore the data with no issues after flashing stable??

I am pretty sure I know my OS, but is there a way to find out?
I was running the stable, but flashing stock boot just led me to a boot loop with the Original Recovery, it's giving me options to
1. Wipe data and cache
2. Reboot to fastboot
3. Reboot to recovery
The fastboot flash commands above to flash stock OS didn't work, due to one error or another.
Anyhow, I had read somewhere fastboot continue works(here: it wasn't working before for me), so I tried that again, and now I am just stuck on 1+ Fastboot screen. I will wait it out to see if it boots into system.
Otherwise, I am thinking I reload fastboot and flash stock boot just like I did- and from there wipe data, but what do I expect then??
The way I see it, I am just stuck in some serious boot issue, and might eventually have to go down the path of msndownloadtool, any suggestion?

The fastboot flash commands above to flash stock OS didn't work, due to one error or another.
Anyhow, I had read somewhere fastboot continue works(here: it wasn't working before for me), so I tried that again, and now I am just stuck on 1+ Fastboot screen. I will wait it out to see if it boots into system.
Otherwise, I am thinking I reload fastboot and flash stock boot just like I did- and from there wipe data, but what do I expect then??
The way I see it, I am just stuck in some serious boot issue, and might eventually have to go down the path of msndownloadtool, any suggestion?

Flashing the stock boot.img should be enough to boot into system without problems because TWRP can't decrypt data in android 11.
In this point you can try a factory reset from stock recovery this will keep device files but will erase all your config and apps
To figure out what version of firmware you had you can run this command in fastboot
Fastboot getvar all

Flashing didn't work to boot into system, I was just getting stuck in the Recovery boot loop, it finally booted into system once I wiped my data(files, music, etc -option);
I did try factory reset, only once I cleared the partition, did the boot loop give way to boot into system;
It booted back to Android 11, but it's all glitchy: Boot taking too long, WiFi not switching on, Call not working, Data is working though- basically it's very screwed up, got a couple of errors too- it's like watching an amnesiac old person.. if you get the gist.
So, now I am considering a stable build from Oneplus support website as a local upgrade and booting back to that..
I am hard pressed for options, let me know if you think something else works better, thanks!

I guess msmtool it's the best way to restore your phone, remember that msmtool will re-lock your bootloader so if you want root you need to unlock your bootloader again.
Use msmtool and instructions form Here(there's an android 9 and android 10 for Global and Europe versions, use android 10)

This is the OnePlus 7 pro forum so, I assume you was a 7 pro user, now all makes sense you don't flash the correct boot.img for your device so all woes wrong.
You need to use msmtool from Here

Hey, I am on Mac, I see that Msm is windows-specific.. any way out?

Update: I have been roaming around the corridors of this forum since about a week now. Thanks @RokCruz !!
Finally, used msm tool, although I suspect I still had the option of flashing TWRP and Magisk as I had access to phone and fastboot, but the system was super glitchy.

I guess that the only way is using the fastboot ROM
