Hello. I got my new LeTv phone about six months ago. Model x600 of course. When I saw that I had to upload a system with Polish language, I took care of the BB72 system. All is ok, but I do not like the EUI overlay. I will now describe all the errors that I encountered with this phone and how to fix them :fingers-crossed:
·Invalid IMEI·
Invalid IMEI this is the worst thing that I could meet. With the problem, measure up to now. This is also related to the NVRam problem. This problem is removed by IMEI and does not read the card. The phone is useless, but it can be fixed. However, after each subsequent change of the system for a new one, we will have to do the same thing again.
How to FIX?
1. Download ToolHero app and install (Google play will recognize this as a virus)
/Link\ https://m.apkpure.com/toolhero/com.mobileuncle.toolhero
2. We start and go to the tab · IMEI · and · IMEI RESCUE ·
3. Click ·START RESCUE·
4. Reset phone
·Brick·
I will not be explaining what brick is because everyone knows it. However, I know how to fix it. There are several ways to do this
-1- Find firmware scatter

This is for LeTv 1S, but we do exactly the same as it is shown with our files
·AOSP·
Aosp is my favorite system for this phone, but I had no idea why KernelAuditore and AccuBattery showed me the battery capacity of only 1000mAh. The battery has disappeared and you will not do anything about it
However, if it does not bother you, I give a link to it and to TWRP created by BB72

Exactly the same problem I had with my LeTv. Today I fixed it and I am flying on LineageOS. I would recommend. However, TWRP can also be used. I recommend you to upload this TWRP what I have. I gave them in point AOSP.
1. Download TWRP BB72 on your phone
2. Go to recovery
3. Flash TWRP BB72
4. Restart Revovery
5. Go to Mount
6. Unmount all
7. Clear system, data, cache, devile cache
8. Flash rom
Good Luck (first boot is long)
It's really nice to see something fresh on xda in 2018 for our beloved LeTV X600!
Many thanks for this thread, Nexu4K, and for me especially the nvram fix pointer. It solved my otherwise lingering problem with that fake nvram WiFi entry.
In the meantime, my own daily driver for a while now has been the LineageOS 13 ROM. Other than the "Double-tap-to-wake-screen" feature not working on it, everything else I've tried works, and the ROM for me is smooth as silk.
My wish for this device, World, is to have a smooth LineageOS 14 ROM and beyond or similar on it already...

Thank you for such a nice comment. I noticed that people bypass LeTv x600 so I decided to do something that will help everyone in one thread. On the other hand, on the double tap, I do not know what to do because it does not work at all. Roms do not count AOSP have been transferred from LeTv 1s and that option works there. Apparently the LeTv x600 does not have AMOLED screen allowing such tricks because no applications even support it. I SEARCH
In the options I also found an google OEM blockade known as FRP. However, I do not know if it works exactly, / and I do not want to lose a phone right now so I leave it to check
Nice. I will need to try this out. Any suggestion on how to root? I looked at some threads but all the links are dead.banyone has new links?
You don't need to do all this. Simply put the phone to default situation with stock recovery and stock rom formatting all partition different from system
Hi guys... Can anyone help me
My phone does not switch on anymore
I wanted a clean install so i flashed this mod 28S in my X600
Should be official one, after having a not official one. BB72
1523514973_FULL_X600_X600-CN-OP-ABXCNOP5902803181S-5.9.0
After installation done successfully.
with TWRP 3.0 at the end of the page was
Wipe cache e dalvik (what i pressed)
i went back then
Reboot
System
and was last time i saw my phone switch on
It switched off and didn't awake anymore
Neither in Recovery mode.
Nothing
If i charge it, the charging light gets on
It had 52% batter at the end of installation
the computer detects a device but not the phone or memory. just the sound of something connecte.
Can someone help me
Thanks
Did you solve your problem? You may need to flash rom with so flash tool.
Hello,
I've bricked my X600 (32 GB) by flashing unbrick ROM from
http://www.androidbrick.com/download/letv-x600-unbrick-rom-scatter-file-sp-flash-tool-mtk-drivers/
Now phone can only be flashed with SP Flash Tool. But when I flash with the unbrick ROM at above, nothing will be changed.
I also have another X600 32GB version fully working. If I backup all partitions of second X600's SD card and restore them bricked X600 with SP Flash Tool, can I unbrick the bricked X600?
nvm
Now that the Umidigi One Max has TWRP, it is now very easy to flash GSI ROMs.
I will try to keep track of different GSI that works (or not !) here, alongside with bugs. Testers are welcome !
I highly recommend GSI based off phhhuson's work, as he did great job to fix MTK issues. Some other GSI may work better. We definitely need testing !
10
Apparently it works as shown here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=80319007&postcount=13 credits to @4ctiv_
9.0 Pie
phhusson's AOSP :
Everything works as expected. Notification bar is of the wrong size, may need to create a patch for it. Tethering doesn't work with data ON !
Camera is good ! All cameras are recognized. Fingerprint sensor OK. Torch not working under 15% like in stock, this seems like a hardware thing.
Ongoing calls and SMS will not work first boot. Just reboot and it'll work.
Magisk 19+ doesn't show root prompts. Fix here
Pixel Launcher crashes, but it seems that it's the only google app that doesn't work. Google Phone works.
NFC doesn't appear at all. There is a fix with magisk tho ! See here (NFC4PRA)
ctsProfile doesn't pass. Using MagiskHidePropsConfig fixes the issue, but choosing "vendor fingerprint" bootloops
Testers needed
8.1 Oreo
Testers needed
Do not hesitate to post what you find or your testing.
NOTE : Installing a GSI can be done via 3 methods : TWRP Image Flash, SP Flash Tool, or fastboot (needs unlocked bootloader)
For the first two methods, unlocked bootloader is not required ! TWRP can be flashed via SPFT aswell.
Enjoy your beautiful and modded phone
Make sure to check out my guide on installing GSIs at https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/umidigi-one-max-custom-rom-modding-t3942521/
I downloaded system-arm64-ab-gapps-su.xz, extracted the file, booted into TWRP, did a full wipe, and installed "image" system-arm64-ab-gapps-su.img. TWRP asks which partition to install it to. I selected "system". However, after install I go to reboot, and TWRP complains there is no OS. Am I missing something?
I did a complete backup in TWRP of all important partitions first (nvram, modem, system Etc.), so going back to my stock setup was not difficult. Those trying this, backup all important partitions from TWRP on to microsd!
For everyone, make sure you download AONLY images, not AB !

I posted this in another forum, but for the life of me I do not know what is causing this issue. I installed RR rom located here:
https://get.resurrectionremix.com/?dir=gsi/
system-190120-arm64-aonly-vanilla-nosu.img
I also install, Gapps (pico), and Magisk.
It runs great, for the most part. However, if I start streaming a video from any app or start streaming music, after a short amount of time my Umidigi One Max:
A.) Announces, "Powering Down"
B.) Boots directly into TWRP
C.) If I reboot, it again boots directly into recovery. Almost as if the partition became corrupted.
D.) Try to recover a backup I made in twrp, reboot, again boots straight into recovery.
E.) If SP Flash can communicate with the phone, I can usually push all the stock images back to the phone. If not, I have to push the images via fastboot with my Ubuntu PC.
If I do any other CPU intensive task under a GSI ROM, it doesn't have this issue, only when I stream video. I haven't tried any games to see if it causes this behavior.
I have tried multiple GSI Roms located here too, same problem:
https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/wiki/Generic-System-Image-(GSI)-list
I do not believe the device is overheating, it's usually around 32-34C from the TWRP menu at that point. I really like the RR Rom, but if I cannot figure out what is causing this, I'll have to stray away from GSI for now.
As a sidenote, this issue of the device suddenly powering down after starting to stream a video, does not happen with the stock ROM. I am kind of at a loss on this one.
Weirdest thing I have experienced running a custom ROM.
Yeah it happened to me sometimes as well... The phone goes straight into recovery and then never goes to system again. I haven't found the cause of it.
Did you try the NFC fix for the one pro (I got it from the umdigi forum one Pro and then the thread custom ROMs)
phhusson's AOSP is mostly good. But I noticed the wifi often gets disconnected and has performance issue too.

I don't get any performance issue. The only issues is that some ongoing calls doesn't come, and sometimes 4G totally glitches out. Other than that it's pretty much all.
@ _cab13_
i cant find the vendor folder in twrp in the mount section or in the file manager.
what have i done wrong? ok i started from scratch and then it worked porfectly
thx you for your work and help
Engineering mode access or work around
On the 9.0 ROM I cant seem to access engineering mode via the keypad, I need to sort the handset speaker out. Is there any other way to access it or some way of tweaking the voice settings through the shell?
Any help would be appreciated.
Please help

I've tried flashing multiple android 10 GSIs from the phhusson GSI wiki list.
I've tried phhusson's AOSP ROM, CAOS, Lineage 17.1 and POSP. It seems like they all freeze at the splash screen and get stuck loading forever (confirmed, I left it on all night last night). I've tried disabling force encryption, I've tried not installing magisk. Not really sure where to go from here with Android 10.
I've also tried Android 9 with much more success: it boots, it works, but the only thing I can't seem to get is NFC. Has anyone found a way to get NFC to work on any android version with this device? Or do I have to go back to stock android 8?
Thanks!

I'm in the same boat bro. I've just tried both the latest phhusson AOSP 10 ROM as well as an older version of the same ROM, and both time I get caught in a loop after install. Completely wiped beforehand, tried installing with and without Magisk/Disable-Force-Encryption. Going to have to bring it back down to Android 9. I wonder how 4ctiv_ got it working?
so first you have to no encryption then erase and format data
flash android 10 arm 64 a without gapps build (image) to system i use havoc 3.5 and everything exept nfc works
then install gapps (it failed for me so i had to resize system in twrp and install gapps again
last step is to flash the custom phhson magisk
then just reboot wihout wipping
Thank you so much for your work...
Hi, I'm a long time Android user and I used to code apps, if I can be of any help please let me know but I'm now disabled wheel chair user with dystonia so I find it extremely difficult to type now so I use voice to text... I really enjoy using the umidigi one max it has the storage and usability of a much more expensive phone, also functionally for me the wireless charging and NFC make my life so much easier as I find cables akward and payments at shops much easier.
I read about the Treble programmea while ago and recently read this article and if it is possible to get the NFC working on this update, I will be so greatful as it will extend the life of this great phone for me.
Good luck with your work and thank you in advance.

Hello everyone.
This is my first thread, I hope not to break any rules.
Ulefone launched the new Armor 3W and 3WT, like our 3 and 3T, it does have the exact same look and same specs except for the CPU and RAM, our 3 and 3T have the P23 and 4GB of RAM, the new Armor 3W and 3WT have the P70 and 6GB of RAM.
Does any of you had the change to get one and test it out?
I'm curious if the TWRP available to 3 and 3T are compatible with the new 3W/3WT.
Thank you!
Have you found out anything yet?

Not yet, already bought the Armor 3WT from Banggood and they'll ship on October 13 if not mistaking.
I was hoping for someone that once they have the new 3W and 3WT they will test if the tools available for Armor 3 and 3T will be the same for Armor 3W and 3WT.
It's exactly the same models except for the CPU, RAM and OS, 3 and 3T have Oreo 8.1 and the Armor 3W and 3WT have Pie 9.0.
I'm waiting to buy a 3w also by Aliexpress. I'm searching to see bootloader, twrp and root unlock issue but it's hard to find. I don't know if because it is still launch ..... I hope that in the near future someone can unravel these mysteries
After almost a month of use I found many bugs software related but didn't find fix yet... Bluetooth keeps randomly disconnecting (I think this is Pie related and not Armor 3WT), the build in "firewall" doesn't work on stopping apps from access the internet, and neither does the build in "power saver" feature, regardless of having such apps on whitelist some of them keeps getting killed in background
I have had the Armor 3W for about a month now, after purchasing it as a replacement ffor my previous Armor 3 which wasn't too happy with 80kg landing on it from a height of around a metre. (Didn't break anything externally, just started behaving very oldy!)
The only issue I have found so far is that after a random period of time (from hours to days) the proximity and light sensor stop working. This is frustrating when making/receiving a call due to the screen not turning off. (Yes, some people still use mobile phone to make phone calls! )
I do not believe this to me a hardware issue as it is resolved, at least temporarily, with a power cycle.... (Think Roy from "The IT Crowd": Have you tried turning it off and on again?) It also sems to have been a semi-common on a number of other phones running Android P.
The proximity calibration app, I thought had worked as initially it seemed better, but the sensors have resorted to their old ways.
I have emailed Ulefone Support, but due to previous experience I won't be holding my breath, blue is not really my colour.
Has anyone else experienced this issue with the Armor 3W/WT, and if so does anyone have a solution?
TIA,
Damien
Just got my own Armor 3WT and can confirm the proximity sensor issue. After about a day it stops working and gets stuck on 0 distance which causes the in call screen to go black. Reboot fixes it as mentioned above. For me the built in firewall or "network manager" works as intended from a few short tests. My build number of the rom is "Armor_3WT_RF1_EEA_V01_20190919-1954". Bluetooth also seems to work fine however i have only tested it with an OBD scanner and not for audio or wireless headphones...
Any news about twrp? All i could find are some fake websites with no download link. The bootloader unlocks with "fastboot flashing unlock" which does a factory reset and i tried booting the UMIDIGI S3 Pro twrp as the specs looked pretty close (same soc and ram and resolution) but it does not boot into recovery at all.
Hello users of this funny phone ...
I have a questions
did You tried apply any ROOT ? like KINGROOT or any familiar without TWRP ?
this smatphone have indicator led ?? ( and blinknig on received unread mails/sms/ and other events ?
what about quality of pictures ? in daylight and flash light and speed of focus ?
Thx for answers .

I personally didn't try KINGROOT because the last time i tried it was annoying to deal with and remove. I did look into patching the boot.img with magisk to avoid the need for twrp but first we need the stock rom download which ulefone does not provide yet (probably because the phone is so new). It has a RGB led on the top right. Pictures of the front camera are poor but usable in high light and the back camera is good with flash or light and "medium" when darker. By that i mean that you are able to see the general things in the image when dark but don't expect to be zooming in or reading text without flash.
Another thing worth noting is just how LOUD the speakers are. Watching videos indoors on the lowest volume is already slightly too loud when the room is quiet and notifications/calls are also extremely loud anywhere above the lowest setting. It is much louder than any other phone i ever tried.
EDIT: The camera does allow manual controls of everything including shutter speed with another manual camera app.
Thx a lot for this information ,
has RGB led , but its working as indicator of messages or only for battery power loading ?
when ROOT will be available I will buy this phone probably ... (this is mandatory requirement with all my smartfones , i cant imagine have smartfone without ROOT)
aaa one more question i forgot

Charging and messages with selectable color. I agree about root however the phone was just too interesting to wait for root. I mostly need it to delete the gapps and google services as i don't use them so i can live with it for now. It has 2 sim cards and a micro SD card each in their own connector under the metal plate on the back so all 3 at once are possible.
Thx again , now all is clear for me ..
i see one minus of this phone "rubber" around a case ... i hope so its properly mounted "glued" I have NOMU S30 mini now ... and after 1 year of using starting get away from corners

Thank you so much! This works great!
Here is a clickable download link: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1J0HlsJYTyJUGAHjIXYMDUXye4DD9kEAC
For anyone following these are the steps i did (assuming you unlocked bootloader already):
1. Copy both zips to external sd as internal storage wont work at first
2. adb reboot bootloader
3. fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
4. unplug usb and hold power button until screen turns off
5. let go of power button, count to 2, press and hold power button and volume up together until screen turns back on
6. let go of power button when screen turns on but keep holding volume up until you see TWRP screen
7. as above post said, cancel password and swipe to enter main menu and then one square above the bottom right to enter the language menu
8. flash both zips from external sd card
9. format data (not wipe but format to get rid of encryption) - i rebooted after flashing the zips and had to go back to recovery again to format the data !THIS DOES A FACTORY RESET!
10. reboot to system this will cause it to be set up as new
11. reboot to recovery again, this time there should be no password and in install you should be able to see internal storage of the phone
12. flash magisk / anything else you want
Also do you mind me asking... How did you manage to make this recovery? As far as i understand the stock boot.img is needed to port twrp or have things changed now?
Thank you for your feedback and more detailed instructions. I was only a tester, the work was done by nemo-nemo from 4pda. But how i can understand you need to use your stock firmware from ulefone mega storage. I got a problem when was working with twrp stuff. Tee key and google key red text in upper right corner. I have restored the IMEI's but google key still is not ok. I checked solutions for other ulefone phones but they dont work. Maybe android 9 is a reason. If anyone know something about it pls reply. Sorry for my english

Aha. I did not know about any such ulefone mega storage existing although i have seen this kind of thing before when working with a no-name chinese tablet. I thought that the firmware simply wasn't released yet as there was no download link on ulefone page. Sadly i do not know anything about tee key or google key, it just worked for me. Hopefully someone else can help you with that.

Thank you, i'm sure this will be very useful. By the way.... I tried remounting system as rw and it doesn't allow me to do that. I read online that this might be due to a "secure kernel" but can't get much more info. Do you know how one could solve this and modify the files in system partition? Maybe there is some flashable .zip patch to enable it?
EDIT: It works in TWRP just not in android. I suspect this is due to apps trying to remount /system but the phone actually has files in /system/system/ (2 folders one in another).
EDIT2: Don't try to restore a twrp backup if you have any important data, for me it caused the phone to go black screen and reboot as soon as it goes past the first few seconds of the Orange State logo to try and load the system.
Has anybody gotten visible Wireless to work correctly on custom roms? I got it up and running no problem on oxygen OS, but for some reason I just can't get it going on customs.
It's literally driving me insane.
I'm bumping this thread... been trying out some custom roms (Havoc and trying Bliss now) but haven't been able to get any Visible Wireless (by Verizon) signal on my phone.
Does anyone know if ANY custom ROM works? Particularly interested in ASOP ROMs, not ones based on OOS.

Yes, you can get visible wireless to work on all custom roms now. Used to not be able to because custom roms wouldn't detect Verizon Sims, but that's been fixed for a couple months now. Only thing that needs to be done is updating the apn config. The instructions to replace the apn config file are located here. The only difference is on Android 10, it's located in /system/product/etc/ instead of /system/etc/ that is lit used to be on Android 9. I've uploaded the new apn config file that you need to use.

Wow. I just got a H830 unlocked lg g5 running lineage 17.1 working with visible LTE. I merely switched the apn.xml file as you said and switched my preferred network mode to LTE. THANK YOU!!

Yes!!! I finally did! Lineage 17.1 on a lg g5 h830 and on lineage 17.1 galaxy s9. Both working. WOOHOO! Merely swap apn.xml, chmod, reboot, reset settings, then click visible internet, then set network mode to "LTE"
I have a OP8 Pro that I've been trying to get work with Visible and custom roms (Resurrection Remix and/or crDroid specifically), but have hit a dead end.
crDroid doesn't let me edit any of the "Network Settings," the option is grayed out entirely with the Visible SIM inserted (but the lock screen shows "No SIM inserted - Visible," giving the impression that the phone sees the SIM in one slot, knows it is Visible, but won't connect or register it to allow changing settings).
Resurrection Remix will recognize the SIM, and I can get into Network Settings. I've tried to add all 4 APNs manually after flash and can't get it to get a signal at all, leading me to believe that there's further, "deeper" integration that I don't have access to after flashing is complete and system partitions are locked as read-only.
TWRP 3.40-14 by mauronofrio works with Resurrection Remix flashed, but System, Vendor, Product, etc. are all locked as read-only, so editing the apn-conf.xml file can't be edited. And, sadly, that's where I'm at. A bit frustrating that OOS stock recognizes everything instantly upon initial boot, but custom roms won't. If there's any information I can provide to help get universal support for this carrier, I would be more than happy to help contribute.

I have a Pixel 4a and none of the custom ROMs except 1, which naturally was the last one I tried, worked. The ROM that worked had this dir /product/etc/CarrierSettings/ with a config for each carrier, Visible's config filename being visible_us.pb, and this dir was missing from the ROMs that Visible did not work on. Note the stock firmware had the same dir and Visible config as well. I also have /product/etc/apns-conf.xml in my ROM that works on Visible but the Visible APNs are NOT in that config so it's pulling it from the visible_us.pb.
It's clearly a firmware issue on some level. I suspect it's simply a matter of getting the system to use the proper APNs. It seems to me that the only way to do that is by building the ROM with the Visible APNs baked in the /product/etc/CarrierSettings/visible_us.pb, or /product/etc/apns-conf.xml, depending on where your implementation gets these default values from — or maybe it's the implementation that makes the difference, I'm not sure.
What doesn't make sense to me is why adding the APNs in settings manually had zero effect. I got the same default APNs to select from when I insert the SIM with ROM that did not work as you, StraightTalk, Verizon, and Xfinity. I also noticed that intermittently it would automatically load the VSBLINTERNET APN from the SIM but nothing would work.
I think the next step is to try to get the devs to include the Visible APNs to apns-conf.xml in the next build. I suspect that will cure this. Too bad Android make the system RO or it would be trivial.
Links that may be of interest..
This is my ROM for Pixel 4a that does work on Visible forked from ASOP.

This was extremely informative! Hopefully this will be helpful to somebody else seeking the info and scouring the web for answers.
I'm on stock OOS right now on an unlocked OP8 Pro. There is no CarrierSettings on this rom, so maybe it's just the APN file? I couldn't find a visible_us.pb file either. But I've also had a dev whip up a Magisk module that supposedly added the APN settings in, to no avail. Perhaps "baking in" is different than trying to overwrite via Magisk.
Of course, I say all of this pleading ignorance to what may be obvious to actual contributors. I have virtually no idea what I'm doing and am probably talking out my ass.

Old thread but I am just discovering (via Oxygen Updater) that the IN2015 I purchased from eBay thinking it was a US Open model, not a Visible Frankenstein's monster, will not update from 10.5.4 IN68CE via Oxygen Updater in April 2021.
I just canceled eBay return (128GB was listed as 256GB) but kept based on like new condition and assuming I could easily bootloader unlock, root, flash International Oxygen 11 and use dual SIM tray (eBay order).
Wondering if anyone has successfully updated (via fastboot flashing) a OP8 Visible version to a true carrier free model.

I sold mine and went for the 8 pro, so I'm not aware of anything. I couldn't get it to do anything but run the visible software, unfortunately.
Bummer! Before I follow up my recent eBay return of the blacklisted OP7 Pro I received with a return of this, I guess I'll get familiar with MSM Tool and try to flash different versions of Android 10 and see if I can get something running that I can upgrade. I need non carrier restricted OOS so it will recognize two SIMs. Question is if I can even utilize 2 SIMs with a single IMEI device.
Looking like another eBay return is in my future.
Hello Guys,
So i'm new to Oppo, but an old wolf within these corridors.
I have some questions for you crazy people who bought the Chinese DUAL sim version of the Oppo Find X2 Pro.
I went through all the threads, read them and there are some inconsistent answers. So i will post my questions (feel free to ask me to add more) and will update the orginal post with the answers you will give me - so this helps new comers.
1. Does Google Playstore work?
-Confirmed working
2. Does Google Pay work?
-Confirmed working
3. Does Google assistant work?
-Apparently yes, but the "Hey Google" voice detection apparently is grayed out and doesn't work (Need more confirmation on this also)
- Works with issues or extra application
4. Do Gsuite applications work?
-Normally they should as Oppo is not blacklisted like Huawei and runs GMS. But could someone confirm please.
5. Do third party launchers work (without ADBing "pm" the orignal launcher) ?
- NEED CONFIRMATION - but apparently not
- Confirmed not working
6. Does 5G / 4G work?
Apparently a forum member living in Italy says it works fine, but found that some 5G bands are not present in the Chinese version. Please reply yes or no and on which carrier you are and which country.
- NEED MORE CONFIRMATIONS
7. Does WifiCalling and / or VoLTE work? And if they do /don't please write down your carrier/country
-NEED CONFIRMATION
8. Can you force install the Global ROM onto the Chinese Phone (important point here)?
-Still waiting to see if that is possible. Waiting to get confirmation from people who tried / succeeded / failed please
- Waiting on results
9. Can you unlock bootloader and install TWRP.
-Only answers i could find were : yes and no, bootloader not yet unlockable, TWRP working... very confusing.
9. Apparently you can't use an app like Textra or other to replace the Stock SMS app (who uses SMS anyhow, right? but still an interesting point).
-Anyone?
10. Looking for tutorials on how to use MEMStool, QPST, etc... anyone know of any so i can link them here? Coming from Samsung, Oneplus, etc could be handy
- Anyone?
11- Autostart of more than 5 untrusted applications? asked by @yarik88
Has anyone won this limitation? This is very important, as it affects notifications from third-party applications. And without autorun, calls are not accepted in some messengers that are not indicated by Oppo as trusted.
You can give permission to the application to autostart related applications, therefore, perhaps there is a program (something like an autostart manager) giving it the right to autostart, it will already launch the application that you specify in it. But so far I have not found one and these are my assumptions
12. Anything else?
Thanks for your feedback and help.
I can come back to you on the other questions for but for now I bought mine from Wonda. Google Play was pre installed and works fine (I had a P40 Pro before so I know about Play Store not working fully!)
Google Pay works without issue. The app is stable and have used all my cards to pay using NFC.
Google assistant works once when you set it up, then it takes itself out of settings. I use the Google Voice Search app instead (I only use mine to set timers etc). All my other Google apps work fine, maps gmail etc.
4G works fine, I have the option for 5G in the menu but don't have a 5G sim to test. No option in the menu for VoLTE/WIFI calling it seems.
Flashing Global ROM needs more testers
8. Can you force install the Global ROM onto the Chinese Phone (important point here)?
All attempts to flash the Global (CPH) software on a Chinese (PDEM) phone were unsuccessful so far, however, it seems that all these people (claiming a failure while flashing) are members of the Beta program.
My friend with an Oneplus phone reports the same behaviour (the phone just won't let you flash an older firmware), furthermore, one Beta user here reported that now he can not even flash the original PDEM software while getting the same error message (The installed version is lower than current).
tl;dr
So there is a solid chance that all of this has nothing to do with Global/Chinese ROM, we just need users who AREN'T in the Beta program to test the ROM.

While I've got you here, can you please see if you can install Nova launcher or lawn chair... Just to see if third party launchers work.
Thanks!!!

I think the same with all Chinese rom phones, there isn't an option to set another launcher. Yes you can download them and they appear but once you close an app it reverts back to stock. Just tried and no it doesn't set as home launcher (Lawnchair 2 anyway).
SO only way is to adb and uninstall the orginal launcher...thanks for confirming.

Just a last question, are you willing to test the global ROM on your phone for the community? As all whom tested it , were trying on beta program and couldn't make it happen as stated by Killer007 above.

Blazingly fast phone, with almost unlimited RAM... and they limit autostart to 5.
Bizarre (theres that buzzword again!)
I don't get this thing of autostart... Are you telling me that this phone with 12gb of ram...limits 5 applications? Meaning if you have mail, WhatsApp, telegram, calendar , or other apps you need notifications for you are limited to 5 apps max??!!?
Please elaborate...I'm having a hard time believing this. Seems worst than Huawei's app killer...

So there is a solid chance that all of this has nothing to do with Global/Chinese ROM, we just need users who AREN'T in the Beta program to test the ROM.
Global ROM (UK version), 12th May 2020, 3 597 MB, CPH2025_11_A.18: https://oppo-uk.custhelp.com/app/software_update_detail/p_name/Find+X2+Pro/session/
The same ROM decrypted from .ozip to .zip for those who want to play with it: https://1drv.ms/u/s!AjPo24k0toyl0VJOap14txM-W3Nl?e=ePbq9I

I don't get this thing of autostart... Are you telling me that this phone with 12gb of ram...limits 5 applications? Meaning if you have mail, WhatsApp, telegram, calendar , or other apps you need notifications for you are limited to 5 apps max??!!?
Please elaborate...I'm having a hard time believing this. Seems worst than Huawei's app killer...

ItsIt's very similar to this.
This is Oppo's worst idea. I don't understand how they think in China, forbidding the user to use his phone. Just the thought that there are so many ad notifications from apps to take this step.
You have the "Manage autorun" setting in it on top of the list of trusted applications from installed (I have Instagramm, Skype, Telegramm, Whatsapp, Vk, Facebook) I think there are more, but here OPPO decides which applications to consider trusted.
Apps from this list do not affect the 5 apps limit.
And below is a list of all the other apps installed on your phone. And you can select Only 5 applications that have been autorun.
Notifications from applications that don't have autorun permission come in very badly, usually only when you start the application itself. But sometimes they break through, too, but not always.
For example, a SIGNAL messenger without autorun does not receive call notifications and becomes useless, you can get within an hour notifications that you missed a call.

Now that's devastating to hear. Considering previously mentioned cases it should have allowed you to flash it... I'm speechless and saddened.
May I at least, out of pure misery, ask you which tool did you use to flash the ROM?
That's nuts....

On a side note, I went to a local store to.see the single SIM version, and we looked inside...and there were connectors for 2 SIM cards...so my question now is : if we hack the card, and able to put two sims inside...is there a way to change the system for it to work with 2 Sims...
Other tools for flashing stock firmware

I tried via recovery the last time using the official EU rom version from oppo's site... I will try these when I get home after work. I believe MSM tool might be the correct route to use from other posts in different threads. :good:

Thank you for your hard work! You deserve some sort of donation at this point.
To save your time, avoid the latest (4th) method (QPST) - files the application requires for flashing are not located in the Oppo's Global ROM.

I believe QFIL won't work either since we only have .ozip to work with..... I will try though. Now if only there was more time in the day to get this done... Of course this couldn't have been something when I had them Corona Days Off.... hahahaha

I guess a lot of people are waiting on you :laugh::fingers-crossed:
Great job for the community. fingers, toes , everything crossed to see if it works.
BUT i still beleive that there is a way to hack the dual sim for single sim international phones, which in a way would be much better.
