OpenKirin OmniROM are nice, both Oreo and the Pie alphas.
Anyone know when/if Android 10 is coming to RETUS/Retail US? I'm on the XT1955-5 and this seems (from what I've seen) to be the most common model. I'm hoping that it will come soon because I like some of the newer features in Android 10, alongside the fact that the Settings will no longer burn my retinas. Thanks!
Unfortunately, there's no android 10 for retus yet... I'll let you know if i get any news about it
I'm in the USA but have retin. I've got the update and a June 1st patch for security already.
I have the June security update. Are you saying you got the Android 10 update via OTA?
retus & I got the June 1 security update but not 10.

I would do a custom ROM but I'm just sticking with official for now till Android 11 becomes old news.
Also because of the Google Safetynet stuff,
speaking of which, does anyone know if our device supports hardware-based safetynet?

I'm on stock retus june update and according to magisk, we have basic under the evaltype, not hardware-based.
Yeah! I think it'll be winter 2020 before US Carriers (T-Mo/Sprint/Metro) see Android 10.

Probably right. I guess there is a kind of work around to that by flashing certain imgs from another retail to retus. I haven't done it yet, but it sounds a lot like what happened a few yrs ago with my atrix hd and the razr hd. Atrix got left on 4.1.2, razr got 4.4.2, could flash some imgs from razr, without touching the bootloader, and i had moto's official 4.4.2 on my atrix. I believe its the same concept here with retus, but i haven't tried it yet.

Can you post a link to what you're describing? What parts of the ROM need to be flashed to go to Android 10?

See java-shin x kernel thread
Guess I'm lucky. I got the retin (India rom I guess) my phone updated to Android 10 about a month ago and I'm in Utah.
PSA: You can install the generic RETAIL firmware. It's much safer than flashing any region specific stuff.

Use retus
Is there any chance for this phone to get an official custom version of android?
Like PixelExperience, Paranoid or Lineage OS
Since the phone is alrd more than 1 year old, and i would like to keep it for a long time
Look here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...eageos-17-1-beta0-s10e-update-t4076585/page92
There are more custom roms in the same thread.

Im very interested in official ROMs, due of the support and updates
And the Snapdragon version

SD bootloader cannot be unlocked, so no custom roms have been developed for the s10e with SD as far as I know.
I know that using unofficial ROMs and firmware is always risky, but I'm wondering if this is legit. I want to update my Vivo Y51A (unsupported) to at least Android 8 (Oreo), and this website claims to have all the supplies needed for that, but would they actually work?

Edit: So it seems that the rooting apps suggested could be dubious. What alternatives (noob-friendly and free) can I use instead, if the rest of this is legit?
Thank you in advance!
Note: I am a noob, please make your answer noob-friendly
It's 11 o'clock at night, do you know where your firmware is?
If there was even the slightest doubt I wouldn't touch it... actions have consequences.

hehe true dont worry im getting help or at least trying to *oof*
Hopefully someone here knows about this variant or has a better plan for you.
My POV: rooting a phone or replacing the stock rom with a custom rom has become a pointless popular sport. At the end of the day, no better device comes out than the one you bought.
To be on the safe side only use rooting tools / custom recoveries / custom ROMs authored by non-chinese people and introduced and provided here on XDA.

Yes I really want a plan apparently LineageOS doesn't have anything for Vivo phones so I need an alternative.

Maybe a better question is why do you want to root it?
Hi,
I want to get my bootloader unlocked for snapdragon version but I there are not many roms available.
I am looking for Lineage OS or Miuirom or pixel rom.
Any idea when we can get them.
Thanks

Snapdragon can't be rooted past bootloader 2. As far as roms go, there are only stock roms, but somewhere on the forum its mentioned about GSI roms, but VOLTE is broken because its always been a samsung issue and not much work being done. I'm sure there are a few people out there working on personal builds, but nothing released to the public that I've seen. (Aside from Exynos)
