Calling all mini owners, donate to tdm, found a mini for $100 and sent him the info for it.
He has been working very hard to bring us root, now let's bring him a Dev phone!
Unlocking, root and custom ROM will come a lot faster if we get a device permanently in his hands.

It is so nice to see that the community cares more about serving the consumer than the actual company does. ?
Well, i'd like to donate, but how?

I guess you would have to pm him to ask how you can donate to him, I thought he had a link up for donations.
I'd take the donations and buy the phone for him since I live closer to the seller, but I don't know if he got the PM I sent him about it and bought it or not yet.
He's gotten the device, use the link in the op to ask how you can donate to tdm and offset the cost, he plans on releasing custom roms soon.
Very exciting time to be a mini owner.
I'm excited and can't wait! I'm coming from a Nexus 5 and Nexus 5x those have very good development support, I can't wait to start flashing ROMs and kernels on this mini!
Hey @fallen00sniper hope you don't mind me hijacking this thread, but I wanted a place to update everyone on progress and I didn't want to start a new thread.
Current status as of Oct 3 2017
Unlock
Unofficial unlock tool has been released.
Waiting for official ZTE unlock.
TWRP
Alpha version posted in unlock thread. This uses the binary kernel and init from stock (including enforcing selinux) and does not have decrypt support, so it is not optimal.
Working on a full source build and eventual official TWRP builds.
Custom ROMs
I have just now successfully booted the device with a source built kernel based on the ZTE provided sources. I'm starting on Lineage 14.1 support. This will probably take at least a week or two.
Once Lineage 14.1 is working reasonably well, I will also do an AOKP build since that is my preferred ROM. I can help community members with other ROMs, but I won't maintain them myself.
Other
Collecting information on regional variants.
@saymonek has a single-SIM UK/Europe version that is reportedly stuck on 6.0. Are there any more variants?
@tdm, completely fine by me.
while you are in the rom getting them up and running, check into why the touch screen sucks at positional tapping, mine isn't 100% accurate lol
Did a bit of research on variants by trolling through ZTE support. So far I've found:
* USA version.
* UK Carphone Warehouse version.
* International "open market" version (eg. Austria).
* Hong Kong version.
First build done:
Package Complete: /home/tdm/out/laos-14.1/target/product/tulip/lineage-14.1-20171003-UNOFFICIAL-tulip.zip
This is going to need a fair amount of work before it boots and runs, but ... progress!
Oh also FYI... I've been cribbing from the HTC One A9 (hiae) device for Lineage builds. haie is maintained by intervigil, who I had the pleasure to work with at cyngn. I'd say he is one of the top four or five device people in the custom ROM world. And it looks like he has been actively working on Lineage 15.0 so we should get that soon after nightly builds start.
It's so exciting to see device development take off!
Just a quick update...
I had a ... uh ... "server malfunction" yesterday so didn't get a chance to do much. However, I'm back in business today.
So far today I've got linage to start the boot animation. Should be able to get all the way to the home screen tomorrow.

Hello, can I change my axon 7 mini back to the US variant? It was originally US variant, I mistakenly switched US band in the engineering menu and Iost network services. I managed to get it working with the European firmware from ZTE Russia. Would like to revert to the US variant. I noticed in the bootloader version, the US version is P852A12 whilst the European variant is P852A11. Any luck on reverting to US variant?
Can you not access the engineering menu and switch back?
If not, my suggestion would be to use QPST and/or QXDM. These are proprietary tools but you can find them for download. They will allow you to program the frequency bands that your phone uses.
Good luck.

I can access the engineering menu. The device is working but would have loved to switched back to US variant because it's a US variant initially but I am unable to install the US firmware I downloaded from ZTE US Support site
I'm sure we can get you back on US firmware.
What is the error when you try to flash the ZTE package?

I am considering not even worrying about the warranty lol
Big questions are, everything working?, can you return to stock?, and how does the performance of the rom feel?
Code:
#include
/*
* Your warranty is now void.
*
* I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
* do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
* If you dont like this rom, Stay away from this thread!

More or less. De-branded. Better, faster, stronger, but it costs 6 million dollars. LoL. Yeah, I'm a bit older.
I wouldn't suppose this would work for the boost Mobile version?

I think his last one was for Sperry, so it probably does work for boost (Sperry is Sprint version. So boost and Virgin as well). But should wait for devs confirmation.
Update: appears it's for xt1765. Not xt1766. So may not have CDMA support. You can make a backup and try.
Anybody flash this yet? Just wondering...

Also op @theportal2 can you please provide any info about this ROM? Which variant/s of the e4 is this supposed to be compatible with? What makes it faster, better, etc.??

If it says Verizon on the outside the best you can do is (maybe) use with another carrier. That said, the device works perfectly well as a stock gizmo on Verizon's network.

Nope. No root. The bootloader cannot be unlocked.

Root on a XT1767 - nope.
Petitioning Verizon for a carrier unlock so you can use the device with another wireless provider - yep, with caveats. But sounds like you're not interested in that.

Hey, ive got a z flip 3 today from our shop, but the retail mode is activated. Now I want to flash a new firmware over Odin, but I cant find any (okay, I found one on samfrew, but the DL would take 2 days).

Probably hoping to unlock the full software. Apple TV was like that. You flash an update and the demo becomes a full unit.
Not too sure on that. I don't think Samsung is going to make it that easy.
I have a Poco F2 Pro for 2 weeks and I have not been able to update it, it has version V12.0.3.0(QJKEUXM) which is a version of more than a year ago and still Android 10, I bought it new in MercadoLibre, I already tried manually and neither, does anyone know what can it be? I don't want to update it via fastboot because I would lose the warranty. Thank you.

"
Unlocking of the bootloader is made available to make sure that MIUI developer ROMs can be tested by users and will be covered under warranty. Bootloader unlocking does not inherently void your hardware warranty. But a case where the unlocking results in a brick which cannot be fixed via software, the warranty will be void.
According to the statement, bootloader unlock is made available for users to try MIUI developer ROMs. And thus, it will not void the warranty of any Xiaomi or Redmi smartphone. But if the device bricks after unlocking and could not be fixed via software, then the warranty will be void."
It is true what they tell you above, almost always the ones that update faster are the ones with the EU version, you can try installing that firmware.

Hi, I need some advice regarding Lenovo's Yoga Tab 13 (sold in China as Yoga Pad Pro). Did anyone manage to root the North American version successfully?
I'm really interested in buying one, but I can't find any confirmation about its rooting. There's a generic "Guide to Root <insert name> with Magisk [Without TWRP]" guide on the web, but I have no idea if it's really applicable to Tab 13 or if the stock NA firmware is even available for download.
Sorry if it's a noob question. I haven't rooted anything since 2015 and have no idea how things work today. Any help on this will be greatly appreciated.

No. It's like nobody in the world has this. Which is really surprising since it's a great tablet and you can buy it directly from Lenovo (eBay) dirt cheap compared to the alternatives.
Thanks for the info.
Yoga Tab 13 doesn't have any limitation on unlocking bootloader and it can be potentially rootable in the same way as other Yoga tablets:

There is no TWRP yet for Yoga Tab 13 (model YT-K606F), so you need to patch your own boot.img (available in official image downloaded by Lenovo Rescue and Smart Assistant) with Magisk.
My tablet is still under warranty and I may try rooting after it expires.

Hopefully there's a path to android 13 with the monitor input working if we can root it. Looks like that's not coming from Lenovo based on their latest upgrade matrix. The TB-Q706 has the same HDMI input and official Android 13 support from Lenovo. Maybe would make it easier to build a ROM.

There's a version of source code provided on "Lenovo Open Source Portal" website (build s100101_210209). It may require some effort finding code related to HDMI connection, if there's any.
As far as I know there's no other Lenovo tablet with an HDMI input apart from Yoga Tab 13. The P12 Pro (TB-Q706F) has HDMI out via USB-C and it's the only data port on that tablet.

This is such a great tablet. It's like the only one at this price point with 8GB of RAM, and you can use it as a second monitor for your laptop while on the go. I have no idea why not many people own this one.
