Welcome to my stock rooted ROM thread!
These ROMs are built from either the official HTC RUUs posted here, or stock boot & system backups posted in the forum.
Code:
[CENTER][SIZE="3"]*** DISCLAIMER ***
Anything you flash from this thread is done AT YOUR OWN RISK!!
I will not be held responsible if something from this thread breaks your device![/SIZE][/CENTER]
Now that that's out of the way, here are the details:
ROM Features:
- Recovery-Flashable (TWRP Recommended)
- Rooted (SuperSU 2.65)
- Forced encryption disabled
- dm-verity disabled
Instructions:
- Unlock Bootloader
- Flash TWRP
- Format Data in TWRP to remove encryption (Wipe -> Format Data -> type "yes")
- Reboot Recovery
- Copy ROM of your choice to device over USB
- Flash ROM zip
- Reboot device (device will reboot once automatically at the beginning of the boot animation to install SuperSU)
- Profit!
IMPORTANT NOTES:
- You cannot use the external SD card as internal storage, because that would require dm-verity to be enabled, which isn't possible on a custom ROM.

Stupid question probably, is this for Sprint only or will my att unlocked work with this ?

Is what for Sprint only? There are two ROMs.
Sprint Edition is for Sprint (obviously). Dev Edition is for GSM. There's also an AT&T RUU on the HTC site, but I haven't downloaded it. Hopefully someone else can do that and build their own ROM (one of the points of this thread).
That's what I needed to know. I still can't get it to go bast first boot image. It reboots after 6-10 seconds then never comes back on. I'm unlocked, supercid, on 1.12.617.6. Followed directions about wipe and format, flashed. Still nothing. I'll backup and punt for now. I tried numerous times.
My bad, just realized there is a deodexed version. Works great!
I've the same issue as Isun06.
Tryed the HIAE_DEV_EDITION_1.55.617.4_ROOTED_CPTB-deodex.zip and also HIAE_DEV_EDITION_1.55.617.4_ROOTED_CPTB-odex.zip on a European model (2PQ910000). It's S-Off and bootloader unlocked, Super-CID. MID changed to 2PQ912000.
I followed also the directions, but unfortunately it didn't work. I restored my backup which is working.

my previous reply, was luckily deleted, by me fortunately pressing f5,
"it didn't work", "it doesnt work", are not the most useful of statements, so 2 choices
start logging, from the recovery flash, the kmsg/ramoops (whatever this device uses), etc
you should also include what firmware you are running and so on and so forth,
seriously, people, the OP just released this a few hours ago, and he get's, yet another "it doesnt work" post?? -__-
what device do you have (specific, not vague)
getvar all (excluding IMEI, MEID, serial number)
what firmware are you running
has the ROM flashed properly in recovery
is the kernel in place
logcat, kmsg, etc
etc
if YOU want to help, i'm sure it would be appreciated, but the OP need specifics and exact details
I'm not trying to be one of those people, just simply stating I can't seem to get past the first boot . It reboots and is dead. I stated I'm on a fresh install of the dev unlocked 1.12.617.6. I went through the wipe format etc. I supercid. Mid is same as 2PQ912000.
In recovery it said completed and no issues. I'm sure its me. I was just stating I can't seem to move past that first boot.
Thank you for the work, I do appreciate the folks that work on these. Without you this site would be useless and, frankly, I would have stayed w apple years and years ago.

Have you tried installing the 6.0.1 Dev Edition firmware to see if that helps? Typically the ROM and firmware should correspond.
I flashed the img from the other topic that listed the convert from what I'm on now to the 6.0.1. I'm assuming it was the img as it stated it was to be flashed after the ROM backup. The 2PQxxx img. I'm assuming it's the firmware ? This phone is a different animal from the m8 and back. I've done numerous HTC phones and this one is confusing the hell out of me. It's my fault. Not yours.

fastboot getvar all from Download mode might help us see what situation your device is currently in. It sounds like you need to RUU and start over, tbh. A clean slate always helps.
You also need to be more specific with the information you provide. You're referring to vague files, so without knowing exactly what you flashed, it's difficult to help.
To be fair, the purpose of this topic is not to help people figure out why they can't flash a ROM; I already know the ROMs work. This is a Development thread to aggregate the stock rooted bases. As such, the spurious discussion really belongs in Q&A.
Is there anyway you could make a debloated version? Not trying to push it as I greatly appreciate your work done here!
@Captain_Throwback
Thank you for sharing your work.
I read the thread about rooting the A9 but it seems not all devices can be rooted (I am not sure), so I asked the OP there and waiting for his reply.
The one I have is 16GB/2GB model with Build number: 1.27.401.5 CL656287 release-keys, so would the method you mentioned work?
I also have another question but it is off topic, it is regarding the 2GB vs 3GB variants, where can I ask you regarding that? As someone was trying to help me and he told me that you can help.
Thank you so much

I don't know what the "method you mentioned" refers to, but I do know that the FAQ in the TWRP thread answers several root questions. The root method in @jcase's Root thread is largely deprecated with the advent of @Chainfire's latest Beta zips, which automatically patch the boot image. It seems to me that you're making it more complicated than necessary.
And all questions belong in the Q&A forum. If you have a question that you need my feedback on, just mention me and I'll see it.
Now please, let's get this thread back on topic.
I'm going to also upload the firmware extracted from these RUUs to the Downloads tab of the DevDB project. That may help with some of the compatibility issues people are having with the ROMs. Note, however, that the firmware is for people with S-OFF ONLY, and you may need to add your MID and/or CID to the android-info.txt included in the zip for it to flash on your variant. Before you do that, MAKE SURE THE FIRMWARE YOU'RE FLASHING IS FULLY COMPATIBLE WITH YOUR VARIANT!!!! That means - don't flash GSM firmware on your CDMA device and vice versa - the radios are incompatible and will undoubtedly break data for you.
I'm uploading the AT&T firmware now (from the HTC-posted RUU), as I'm about to build a stock rooted for that and upload.

This rom is a stock rom and is almost 100% stock but it comes without dm-verity to avoid boot problems in case you want to preserve your custom recovery.
This rom is meant to be used in case of emergency, give a fresh start to your device, restore your device in case of corruption or just to play around.
I have tested this rom on my own device and everything is working properly.
Please check the specifications at the end of this op.
Requisites:
New assert-fixed twrp version forked from messi's twrp
Note: All the credit for twrp goes to @messi2050, this is just an assert revision of the current twrp made from messi. It will be deleted as soon as we get an updated version with the right assert tags.
Installation steps
Download the new assert-twrp version and flash it as you would normally do it.
Standard Wipe (factory reset) and Format Data are optional (unless you have a non-stock based rom installed already). If you want a full fresh start you should format data, reboot into recovery again and do an standard wipe x3.
Install the rom.

Rom: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=817550096634786356
Device: LG Aristo
Model: LGMS210
Code Name: lv3
Carrier: MetroPCS
Android version: 7.0
Software version: MS21010i
Patch level: April 1, 2017
#####
Update
------------
Please read requisites and download the new file using the new link.
With this new assert-fixed version of the current twrp made from messi we can now avoid issues flashing the original iPioneer Rom.
NOTE: This will only work on MetroPCS, not sure about tmobile, I will try to make it for both carriers...

I think you mean screenshot right??
I usually don't take screenshots on my stock roms, basicly because there is nothing new/fancy to show. It is stock and it'll look the same as when you buyed your phone, with the same default wallpaper and apps...
I take screenshots in my slim versions (wich I will start soon).
For some reason doing the Vol - and Power does the same wipe problem as in Messi's V1 of twrp for me. Am i doing something wrong?
Lgms210 custom roms
My name is red208 and I just want to know if there is a custom ROM for MetroPCS LG ms210 preferably like Resurrection Remix I also want to know if this stock
ROM right here is at all any different form the way metro does it? Im really trying to bypass the 8 gig hotspot restrictions that metro has so it can be a truly unlimited hotspot and i know the easiest way to do that is too just Flash a custom rom plz help me??!!?

You mean that you power off your device and the use the Volume Key and Power hit yes twice, right???
If that is the case you could try flashing DM-Verity or SuperSu again to avoid that little bootloop. Or you can just stick (like me) to do and ADB REBOOT RECOVERY.
Please notice that I never mentioned that the bug-fixed twrp was intended for this bootloop/reset issue, it just correct some asserts problems that block our devices from installing this rom and any other room with the right and original asserts.

Question 1: There is not at the moment, I will start with Leaneage OS after doing my slim version. I don't know how many time it will take as this is my second device and I am just playing around with it (my V20 give me more pleasure).
Question 2: Stock means Stock... Nothing new nor fancy, same setup, apps, etc.... I mention on the OP what this rom porpuse is.
Hotspot issue: not all the time depends on a custom rom, this is my first device with metropcs service, I don't know if they sync your hotspot usage with their servers. If they do you are not going to be able to bypass that. Any ways my slim version it would get rid of plenty of bloatware and it may work if they depend on the main app on the device.

The hotspot will be monitored regardless of if you're using a stock room or custom. The only difference being that on a custom rom, you won't receive a notification stating you went over 8 gigs. Once you hit the 8 gig limit, your hotspot speed will be slowed down.
Also, when you go over your 8 gigs of high-speed hotspot it won't reset at the beginning of your pay period, but exactly a month (to the day) after you went over.
So say your pay period is the 5th and you go over your limit on the 4th. You'd have to wait until the 4th of the following month before you get high speed back.

I was just about to ask if your slim rom would be a debloat, but now I know. So good look there.
Also, if and when you get down on lineage. I'll be more than happy to test, I had been working on it myself before I blew up my hard drive. So I'd rather help then be a sponge.
Im also willing to test.
Ufffff...
Ok guys... After several days testing / building the slim version I am getting really frustated and dissapointed...
Everytime something goes wrong there is no way to boot into recovery mode using hard keys, that only makes twrp wipe and reboot but not entering on the complete twrp options. So everytime that I flash the test .zip of the slim version and I get an error before actually booting completely into the normal system I have to go to Mocosoft (windows) and use LGUP to flash the .kdz and start from scratch all over.
I hate to have to reboot my laptop and use Mocosoft, I really hate not been able to reboot in recovery mode as in other LG devices with the hardkeys.
I guess is another limitation of the actuall twrp version that we have, maybe we will have to wait for an updated twrp version to avoid all this trauma.
Right now I feel like I'm done with this device, I have used LGUP around 15 times in 3-5 days just because I can no go into twrp.
If this is happening with a stock based slim version I don't want to think about building/testing lineageos.
If you know an option to go to twrp version after a corrupted/incomplete system tell me about please. I have used the followings procedure but not success:
1.- Hardkeys (just makes twrp wipe the system).
2.- Fastboot boot twrp.img (command fails).
3.- Flashing original twrp (from messi) and then the flashing back the bug-fixed twrp (forked from messi) and trying to reproduce the first boot taking out the battery and using hardkeys (no luck, still wipes the system and reboot by it self).
Sorry guys, I think I will stop for a few days... Maybe I need to go out and have a little fun and come back...

I hope you can success with lineage 14.1, i wasn't able to make it boot on the stylo 2 plus since ms210 and ms550 are almost the same if you managed to boot it then I'm sure it will work on the stylo too, good luck.
I know it's really late, but I was just gonna say build a version of your rom with the flags for Messi's twrp and just use that to flash.
Either way, I'm glad you managed to sort the shiz out and I'm wishing you the best of luck with development.

???
I don't get it?
You mean the asserts right?
I haven't test the new twrp version of messi (no free time), so you are telling me that the new version still have the wrong flags?
I usually don't remove the CORRECT flags from my roms (a Tmo user could flash the metropcs and cause a brick/softbrick for example) to avoid user's mistakes/misread...

The new version has the correct flags. I never said it didn't.
I'm saying that a twrp can be created with unified flags allowing a room to be shared between devices without having to build between the lv3 and the aristo. Sorta like what had been done with the LG Leon a couple years ago.
Instead of using the h or Ms flags relating to model number, you can use the consistent board config as the basis.
Either way, the only way someone could brick or soft brick from this method is if it were like the S4 situation where you have to flash the carrier specific kernel version for the device. Like using the At&t rom on the Verizon s4 will cause a soft brick until you flash the Verizon s4 kernel.
This is only just an idea in response to you having to go back and forth (before you got the updated twrp) on recovery versions during your tests
OP updated to link and point to the new and updated twrp version from messi.
You guys no longer need the bug-fixed twrp version as before.

Can you do me a solid, sorry if I'm turning into an annoyance. Add "lg aristo" into either the thread tags or into the thread name itself. It'll add the thread into the Aristo board for easier access and make this easier to find. I recommended your rom to another user who had no idea what I was even talking about. (So I shared the link if you don't mind me doing so)
Just got a new Lenovo s5 (k520 running ZUI 3.7.177 ST) but can't root it (tried KingRoot and Root Genius so far).
It has a nasty little OS (ZUI 3.7) which keeps killing apps it doesn't like. It took me two days to find an adblocker which would work (AdClear) after trying Dns66, Blokada and a couple of others which I can't recall. It's tightly locked down.
* Anyway, my question is... Has anyone had any luck with rooting this phone or OS?
* Or, has anyone any suggestions for apps or rooting options which might be more successful?
If there's any other people out there with this phone, I would seriously consider chipping in to buy one for a dev to work with... give me a yell if you're interested.
Cheers,
Specs:
OS ZUI 3.7 (based on Android O)
CPU Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 2.0GHz Octa core
ROM 64GB
RAM 4GB
Edit: Hmmm, I was hoping that the latest Magisk beta (16.6) might help, but no luck. It does seem to get further along but fails with an 'unable to find boot image' message (my apologies for not being able to quote that accurately). Nothing seems able to find that .img. Can't back it up either as no app can find it. Yes, I need to brush up my adb skills ...my last effort ended in an error reporting lack of appropriate key, as I recall (sorry, have a bit of a flu just now). Anyway, has anyone else been able to look at this phone? Anyone have any ideas (or just thoughts) about what I can do here?
Thanks.
Just to update.... I have tried every simple rooting option I can find -with no luck.
I have found one reference to installing twrp & rooting this phone, but I'm unsure how legit it is ...it just looks a little like its put together by a script; but maybe they just copy/paste a lot when writing tutes? (I have written to them but have had no response from them in a week). The tutorial makes reference to a dev/group in China successfully installing twrp, but only on a Chinese release, not international.
Anyway, I'm wondering if anyone knows of the group or people referenced at
http://tutoraplikasi.com/cara-root-lenovo-s5/
or if anyone might have an idea of the dev(s) in China working on twrp & lenovo?
Just a shot in the dark, really, but I thought I'd ask anyway.
Cheers.
OK, looks like time for some more serious reading and brushing up of old, much neglected skilz... I will probably close this thread and open another ( if there's no objections) in the xda twrp forum.
If anyone is interested, I'm looking to compile twrp for this device with a view to flashing magisk. Hopefully, it will work. Seems that adb & unlocking the bootloader is the only way I'm going to get to actually see the partitions holding the IMG files etc. (Though I do have one or two ideas about escalating privileges/permissions, but that's a whole other bunch of research -and time which is always short.)
Anyway, if you have an interest in rooting this phone have a look for a thread under twrp Q&A.
Cheers.
Seems like it was just a matter of waiting... XN Logos has come up with a solution, it appears --
https://www.stupdroid.com/2018/07/root-twrp-lenovo-k520.html?m=1
At least I managed some in depth reading in the meantime. I'll report back on success of the procedure.
Hi I have also a Lenovo s5. I hated zui 3.7 too and I succeded in installing Lineage OS 15.1 by phh using only fastboot mode... I tried rooting It but unsuccessfully. Now I want twrp and if it would be possible even root. Did you succeed with XN Logos?

Haven't actually tried yet. After all that looking for a root solution I now have been too busy. Will probably do it this Wednesday. I'll keep you posted. Did lineage work well? Any bugs or other issues? ZUI is a dog.
Yeah everything is okay... In the previous updates there was a problem with the audio in ear but now is solved. The only thing that is a little (but not dramatically) worse is battery life because in zui the fact that the os kills every app in background makes the battery last longer.
Hey guys, I know it is no the perfect thread for this yet this phone almost doesn't exist anywhere on the internet. I have the same issue with apps closing as you do. I wanted to install Lineage OS yet as there is no official release for lenovo S5. I would really appreciate some guidance on which release would I install and how. Would it be via the twrp? Thanks in advance.

Hello, I'm a lucky owner of this beautifull beast, the Lenovo S5 K520, but with the horfull ZUI3.7. I always have been using Cyanogen and after lineage OS.
It did not luck for me to install it on the Lenovo S5.
I manage to install TWRP-3.2.2-0713 with the help of the S-Droid toolkit for Lenovo S5.
From there, I did try every rom from phh on this page : https://forum.xda-developers.com/project-treble/trebleenabled-device-development/lineage-phh-treble-t3767690
but the best I did get is the first logo of lineage OS going on and never stop for hours. I also did try AOSP treble Rom from this site : https://forum.xda-developers.com/project-treble/trebleenabled-device-development/experimental-phh-treble-t3709659, but there I'm getting the Android text changing of ligth theme, but bothing more.
Could you please tell us the procedure and the version of the software you are using so that you are able to use Lineage OS on a Lenovo S5 K520?
Thanks a lot.

Hi i did in this way...
1)fastboot -w
2)fastboot erase modemst1
3)fastboot erase modemst2
4) fastboot erase system
5) fastboot erase boot
6) fastboot erase recovery
7) fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
8) fastboot flash boot boot.img
9) fastboot flash system {systemname}.img
The only thing you should do firstly is download the firmware from a video in YouTube whose name is like "ROM Lenovo s5" or something like that and extract the firmware in order to have both boot.img and recovery.img. Hope I could help
P.s. I used phh lineage latest build
Lenovo S5 global version stock rom
Hi everybody!
I was wondering if any of you have a copy of the original ZUI 3.7 non-Chinese stock firmware. I had trouble with my phone and contacted the customer service. Unfortunately, they've sent me the Chinese version (K520_CN_OPEN_USER_Q00011.0_O_ZUI_3.7.355_ST_180412_qpst) and now my phone is almost unusable as the rom only contains crappy Chinese stuff... :crying:
All apps are Chinese and it contains no GApps... I cannot even restore previously save config.
Please help me and send me a backup or the original non-Chinese firmware.
Thank you very much
I didn't even know the existence of an original firmware for non Chinese phones indeed when I bought it it came with a horrible chinese firmware with few translations. Did you find it? Because I want to try it too. If you didn't find it I'm also going to look for it

Hi all
I have just bought a new Oneplus 6 and wanted to install Lineage Os.
I had initially set up the OP6 with my google account and installed some minimum apps over a couple of days. The phone updated a couple of times. I think I started on Android 8, it definitely updated to Android 9 and I think it updated to Android 10. But I am not completely sure of this because I did not take notice at that stage because I didn't realise that this might have significance..
I followed the guide from the lineaoge os wiki here
wiki.lineageos.org/devices/enchilada[
I got as far as using adb to Fastboot boot twrp-3.3.1-2-enchilada.img (which was the latest image in the dl.twrp.me/enchilada/
It then got stuck in the qualcomm crashdump line on screen.
I spent a day checking posts, including here on XDA. There are a lot of posts dealing with this issue and I did try to follow some of them with less or more success but no resolve. I downloaded Android 9.02 and used the following instructions
techtrickz.com/how-to/recover-oneplus-6-and-6t-from-qualcomm-crashdump-mode/
The routine started to run and then posted a series of error messages and exited. ( I have a screenshot of the terminal window but cannot see a way to post it here)
I have tried to research this further and there are plenty of posts and lots of suggestions. But to be honest I have become confused as some of the posts give significantly different solutions to each other.
I wondered whether it would be possible to give me some help or point me in the right direction to a post which is current and has the steps that I am likely to need succeed..
Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

I would recommend using fastboot flashable stock rom from here. People also like to use msmtool, but I feel like it is an overkill.
Please note this warning:
These ROMs can't be used to update or downgrade your phone but just to restore your phone, so don't use them to come back to oreo or to update from oreo to pie.
So grab the latest oxygen os 10, and follow the instructions to flash it. After that, if you are feeling a bit paranoid maybe download a zip from oneplus and do a local update. You now should have your phone back.
Official TWRP does not support android 10 yet, as far as I understand, so that is probably the issue. If you want lineageos 16, you should downgrade to android 9 using a downgrade package provided by oneplus and then update to Oxygen OS 9.0.9.
There is unofficial twrp by mauronofrio that supports android 10. If you want to go from OOS 10 to some other android 10 rom

Thanks very much for your helpful reply. I am now back to a working phone with Oxygen os10. And you have also explained what was wrong when I tried to fix it, I was trying to load an Oxygen Os 9 on a phone that had already been upgraded to 10 and you have explained what went wrong in the first place, I was trying to flash an incompatible TWRP image onto Android 10. So your short post has explained a lot. Thank you.
I am not feeling paranoid unless you advise that I should be and I do want to install lineage os. So I need to revert to Oxygen Os9. I have looked on the Oneplus site and that have found the option to Upgrade to 10.3 but no option to downgrade. In the Oneplus community there is a link to downloadable ROMs, these are divided into a number of folders some of which look not applicable. There are three folders that look of interest
1. Signed flashable zips
2. OTA incremental update zips
3. Stock boot-recovery images
Here is the link /forums.oneplus.com/threads/oneplus-6-rom-ota-oxygen-os-mirrors-for-official-oxygen-os-roms-and-ota-updates.835607/
I can see it is not the OTA Incremental that I need but am unsure if it is signed flashable zips or Stock boot recovery images. or whether it is neither.
Do I flash as normal or would it be a local update?
I would be grateful for any further advice.
Thanks again and for any help provided now.

I have had luck with this downgrade package. I basically googled it, the package is hosted on a legitimate website, so that's what I used. Just download it, put it on your phone and do a local upgrade through updater app.
Once you have done that I would recommend upgrading to the latest Android 9, which is OOS version 9.0.9 I believe. Then go ahead and follow instructions to install lineageos.
I am actually on LineageOS 16 + MicroG right now, so I ran into the same problems you did Glad I could help!

Thanks so much for your reply again.
I used your downgrade link and that all worked well and then let it upgrade to OOS 9.0.9. Again all very positive.
I then tried to flash TWRP to the device using this image "twrp-3.3.1-2-enchilada.img" It appeared to flash okay. Then I issued the command
"fastboot boot twrp-3.3.1-2-enchilada.img" over my adb connection and it returned to the Qualcomm Crashdump error.
I presume I have to start again with the exception that this time I can use a flashable stock rom that is OOS 9.09? Is that correct?
Then do you have any suggestions for getting round the TWRP problem? Did you use a different version?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Hm. Yes, unfortunately the safest thing to do is to start again. But you can start with 9.0.9 right away.
People have been discussing a similar issue here. It seems like using unofficial twrp by blu_spark helps. Maybe twrp-3.2.3-x_blu_spark_v9.91_op6.img or maybe try the latest one.
Also, make sure you read the instructions on lineageos website. Make sure you have oem unlocked, usb debugging enabled and you clicked "always give access to this" device or something, do the fastboot set_active a. I have also used fastboot flash boot_a <recovery_filename>.img. However, I do recall using fastboot boot <recovery_filename>.img some other time and I think it worked....
Anyway, yeah, maybe try this modified recovery by blu spark and follow the instructions carefully.

Thanks very much for your helpful reply and apologies for the delay in my reply to this post, I have been tied up with work the last couple of days.
I did re-install OOS 9 and then followed the instructions on the Team Win site to install TWRP in the Oneplus6. I had success after I used the latest TWRP image and zip from that site . I was then able to install Lineage OS and Microg as I wished.
So thanks for the help all. Really appreciated.

Great! I am glad you managed to fix your phone! Enjoy
Hi folks!
Recently I've bought a p40 pro clone that is driving me crazy.
I can't barely use it as all the tweaks to make it look like a better phone are provoking some apps to fail. The about phone screen says that is a p40pro (without spaces), the CPU is a MT6799 when in reality is a MT6580, 12Gb of RAM but is 1Gb, Android 10.1 but it's 5.1, hahaha, it can't be more fake, but no regrets, I have what I've paid for!!!.
My initial idea with this crappy thing was to upgrade the android version to 6.x, but everything is pretty tough, at least with my little knowledge in custom roms, kernel etc.
First of all I'm not able to install TWRP on it. I can't find or make a working version:
I thought that this model was pretty similar and I tried with the TWRP included on the thread about a p40pro+, but the touchscreen after entering recovery was somehow inverted and seemed laggy: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/alps-clone-p40-pro-wish-com.4211591/
With the one at https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/unknown-china-device-p40-pro.4200617/post-85249887 it don't work too.
Finally I came to this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ediatek-mt67xx-64bit-new-32bit-phone.3681861/ and I managed to make a custom TWRP which initially seemed to work (the touchscreen was fine) but the sd card data was unavailable, I was like missing but if I reboot the mobile it properly boot. Maybe because I choose an incompatible model to port from.
So, I'm running out of ideas, please can someone give me a hand on that super ultra fake thing?
Here is the full rom dump, preloader and recovery:
https://mega.nz/file/2M80XY7C#0kw7qVQ5498tDrt4UdUNq49lANIO3RvS73ct6DoCPO0
I'll really appreciate any suggestion on getting a new rom for this phone, and obviously how to get twrp on it, root, and if possible a rom which makes this fakephone at least useable.
Zillions of thanks in advance!!! Take care!
