Medion (Lenovo) P1060x Tablet - ROM [Stock debloated], TWRP, Magisk Kernel - Miscellaneous Android Development

Hey!
Normal I'm just reading here and don't contribute something, but since I've got that old fully bloated Tablet I'm trying to port something on my own. First because I broke the Tab, now because I have time for some experiment and the tablet was just a gift so never mind if it's broken or not. Hopefully it stays alive.
Till now there is no shiny Custom ROM, but I'm trying to Port! What you found here is a debloated Original System, that's nearly looking Stock Android, a new Splash.img without the Medion branding, and also an Updated TWRP 3.6 that runs annoying slow.
The Files are present as they are, I don't know when I Update things or debug something. It runs on my Tab, maybe it doesn't run on your Tab. Be sure to back up your System with the given TWRP. External SD-Card work even with 128 GB for me. So enough Space to save all partitions. The TWRP doesn't work well with secured data partition, so you have to back up every Partition one by one. The Boot.img is patched with Magisk 24.3

U need to install Gapps because I delete all Google Services.
Also, the Obsolete Keyboard and the Launcher is gone from System.img! So if u flash it and can't do anything, u have been WARNED!
Unlocking Bootloader is necessary to Flash boot.img, TWRP.img and so on! Use the Search if u don't know how.
The Image is in Sparse format to used with fastboot, if u don't know how … you know, the Search thing.

Flash things
Code:
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash splash splash.img
fastboot flash recovery twrp3.6.1_9.0.img
fastboot erase userdata
Prefer Aroma Installer to be used found on OpenGapps for Google Apps or a Working Keyboard and Launcher, but we don't have that much Space the Full Gapps are at Maximum Capacity.

I didn't try till now what ROM work or not. I'm thinking about porting some ROM, but I'm not that good at programming.

Thank you so much! i have been searching for AGES

That's the stock system.img V3.0 the debloated V3.7 is packed with 7zip and smaller.

Thanks! that should work now

the image works. but twrp keeps saying its encrypted and i cant boot into android. whats the password!?

That's because data is not encrypted with the kernel.
Be sure that you delete data partition once you flashed the modified System Partition.
Code:
fastboot erase userdata
Data will be crypted at next full boot, there is no encryption till now. The boot take for me 5-6min.

Hello, its some months ago but im still trying to get it working. i got to a point it boots into recovery saying "Cant load android system, ur data may be corrupt. If u continue to get this meassage, you may need to perform a factory data reset" Its just getting to my nerves and i want this to finally work.

Hey, just been a while not on XDA.
Have you performed a factory reset? You could also use adb commands to do this, or you use AROMA Installer to erase everything if TWRP don't work on ur tablet.

--->
Installation
From existing TWRP or OrangeFox recovery
1. Download the OrangeFox zip to your device
2. Reboot to TWRP-based Recovery
3. Install the OrangeFox zip
4. Reboot recovery
From stock unrooted
1. Unlock bootloader
2. Download OrangeFox Odin installer .tar to PC
3. Boot device into download mode, and connect to PC
4. Uncheck auto reboot in Odin
5. Flash the OrangeFox .tar file to the AP tab
6. When flashed, and you are ready, force reboot into recovery.
7. Download Encryption disabler, and transfer to device.
8. Flash Encryption disabler, FORMAT data, reboot recovery.
9. Download Magisk and transfer to device. Flash.
10. Boot up, first boot may hang. After 3min waiting, hard reboot and you should boot straight into initial setup.
** Don't reboot device before going through initial setup and connecting to the internet. This is needed for KG status to read normal. If you don't do this, you may find yourself in a prenormal state.
** If installing OrangeFox through Odin, you will be missing the Fox add-ons, which aren't essential. But if so desired, flashing the OrangeFox zip from existing custom recovery will install the necessary files for Fox add-ons.

Thanks for making an N9700 version.
Works great!!
Any chance you can get USB OTG to work?
Android detects my Sandisk Extreme, but TWRP does not.
Duh! Forgot to mount USB drive...now it works!
difference between this and mental?
best to start making custom roms instead
edit: i see this is by mental lol
weird
pretty cool, thanks. Theres a couple bugs: haptics dont work and the keyboard covers the input line in the terminal. Also, I don't know if this is intended for this recovery, but system apps are not shown in the app manager even though I have mounted system as rw. That would be really cool if they were.
Seems like this recovery has the potential to be a great tool for system-on-root modding. I'll keep for a little while, but not being able to use the terminal will end up being a deal breaker if not fixed. Why is it hidden away in menus too? Anyhow, know you didnt design it, thanks for the work in porting this!

That would be awesome if you could figure those things out. No pressure of course, I appreciate what you've done so far.
I do think if fixed up a bit this has the potential to be a great tool for our phones. System on root devices need a robust solution for modifying system files, and this recovery seems like a great start to achieving that. Adding system app management would be the obvious first choice for a feature many people would appreciate

Ok, assuming you have the n9750 device, I don't have much else to say. I just tested installing TWRP, then using the orangefox zip to flash OF. and it works fine for me.
I have twrp working and even have nemesis kernel installed.
When I flash orangefox zip in twrp items successful but when I boot into recovery it's twrp once again.
Should I flash it via Odin?
Also, I am on infinity rom...n975fds

I tried to boot into this recovery again yesterday and there was a verified boot problem. I went into a bootloop in download mode with the following error. I had to reflash twrp from odin to get the device back. I'm going to wait till this has been developed a little more to use it on my main device.

No flashing instructions for beginners are offered, sorry. If you're here in this section, you should know what you're doing. More detailed guide can be found here and here .
Read the instructions carefully and completely, check unfamiliar terminology by google or xda.
The instructions do not perform, if you do not know what you're doing.
P.S.: keep in mind, that this ROM is rooted with build-in SuperUser , and you cannot turn off SuperUser!

Okay thanks. I kinda know what I am doing, at least I know what I want. My last time is some years ago on samsung devices so I am not into the new phoes but I will read some and go for it.
Hi Alf! Is always me ahaha.
Anyway I wanted to ask you if it makes sense to switch from LineageOS 18.1 to this one here, or they are the same (especially in terms of stability). I also would like to know if there is a way to avoid loosing the unlocked bootloader when I have to switch to stock firmware. Thank you

Team Win Recovery Project (TWRP) is an open-source software custom recovery image for Android-based devices. It provides a touchscreen-enabled interface that allows users to install third-party firmware and back up the current system, functions often unsupported by stock recovery images. It is, therefore, often installed when rooting Android devices, although it isn't dependent on a device being rooted to be installed.
Compatible with Lineage Modded 18.1 only!
Instructions
1. Download TWRP image
2. fastboot boot twrp-3.5.2_11.0-2-nio.img
3. Enter Passcode if you have to decrypt /sdcard
4. adb push twrp-3.5.2_11.0-2-nio.img /sdcard
5. Click Backup -> Only Select Boot and Swipe to Backup
6. Go back to Main Menu, -> Advanced -> Install Recovery Ramdisk
7. Find and Select twrp-3.5.2_11.0-2-nio.img -> Swipe to Install
8. Done! If any issues, restore the backup made before.

Is recovery somehow tied to the ROM? I thought recovery can be anything regardless of what the ROM is, as long as bootloader is unlocked.
Tried while stock rom was installed. Its fine when booted from fastboot. But if installed, touchscreen doesn't work.
Will try on lineage modded and see.
Edit: it works with a mouse. So touchscreen doesn't work, yet to try on lineage modded.
can't start adb sideload mode .
failed reason unkown.
lsusb shows no device presented while enter the sideload mode.
i flashed it directly, like this:
Code:
fastboot flash boot twrp-3.5.2_11.0-2-nio.img
is this ok ?
Hello,
What's going on with TWRP? twrp-3.5.2_11.0-3-nio.img just flashes and won't work and twrp-3.5.2_11.0-2-nio.img isn't booting on my G100 any ideas?
Thanks
Hello,
Finally was able to get this installed on my Moto G100 but it's essentially useless. I can't access the internal flash on the unit from Windows in MTP mode after formatting flash to wipe so I can install lineageOS and Gapps. Essentially have to get LOSrecovery installed and then do sideload because I can't do what I need to with this. The newer version just flashes the screen. Are we going to get one that actually works?
Thanks!

Yes I have a beta version that has that functionaility working already, just working on slot switching bugs.
Hello,
Awesome!!!! Cannot wait to give it a go. You're doing great work and I hope to use this along with LineageOS and have this as my new phone to use!! WOOOHOO!
Thanks and sorry if I came across as rude!
Additionally I can't sideload gapps as it says there isn't enough room... uhg these two slot phones essentially suck a lot... the DooGee S95 Pro I have is so much simpler!
ETA? Oh yea sorry don't ask for ETAs ever!
Oh I just hope it's soon so I can start using the phone. Do you need some bug spray?
Anyhow I'll use whatever version you have A/B switching aside because you can switch from A to B easily with fastboot, while you work out the last bugs.
Thanks and appreciate your work.
And then I ask for an update!
Any updates or development of this?

Hi

Twrp and Android 10. Fastboot flash recovery command failed even though bootloader is unlocked

The only command prompt that seems to be working is fastboot flash boot twrp.img but when I type fastboot flash recovery the flash fails. I use Minimal ADB and Fastboot command prompt. The latest version too. I downgraded my android 11 to 10 successfully. I have no problems rooting magisk through ADB but why can't TWRP permenantly stick? How can I force it to stick as my main recovery no matter what rom I flash?
Crap. I did not mean to say android 11 on the topic title. Wish I could edit it. I meant to say Android 10. Sorry for the confusion. Any tips of how to retain twrp? Having problems with my unlocked pixel 4a.
This guide shows you how to get TWRP to stick:
[GUIDE] UNLOCKING, DOWNGRADING TO A10, TWRP, ROOT
Hello, I'm posting this guide for those (like me) who can't do without TWRP on their device. I'm providing only a step-by-step explanation. Credits to @nikamura for his kernel and TWRP...
forum.xda-developers.com
P4a doesn't have a recovery partition anymore, recovery is part of the boot.img. That's why the fastboot cmd fails.

You can't flash recovery on this phone. It's part of boot.img. Put the TWRP.img file in your internal storage of your phone. Flash the TWRP temporarily first. Fastboot boot TWRP.img. When TWRP boots, click install, then select install image. Choose your TWRP file and select install Ramdisk. Swipe to flash. TWRP will then be installed permanently. You must also be using a custom kernel with TWRP compression support because the partition is not big enough and must be compressed otherwise you will run into issues like TWRP freezing or touch screen issues.
I tried that and twrp still wont stick even after a OTA update flash. I installed ram disk twrp even after the update. What gives?
I fixed it. My mistake was flashing magisk boot img after the ramdisk installation and two kenel. I just flashed magisk.zip instead and got things working.

Yes, if you flash magisk boot img it will replace TWRP. Flashing the zip is the way to go. Glad you got it working.

I'm curious....you said you are on Android 10, but then you mentioned above installing an OTA update.....I thought all the currently available OTA updates are only for android 11?
My 10 cents worth. Magisk kills fastboot and adb in MY armor x5 mt6765, in 10_Q, so had no choice but to load boot-debug.img just to 'test'.
Try an android 9 bootloader designed for them 'super' .img's, this is the only way I could LOAD magisk, only to find what I read here.
Also note, in 10_Q, the gsi ability found in dev options dissapears when magisk is flashed, so I cant flash gsi, never mind use fastboot or adb.
Thank you.

It might work, but stick with OP steps, those 110% WORK, but up to you. I gave up on TWRP when A/B partitions came out and chose to just stick with and use stock ROM recovery. That will always work, TWRP, maybe not so much, IDK, it might, but you wont get the same type of help if you choose your own path (TWRP).
Also, just an FYI on nomenclature, this isn't firmware, but ROM, firmware contains all partitions, drivers, ETC., this is just the OS (ROM).
Thank good bro. Please you can create a version same this version V9, but face id use camera, same same this version 7.2 so you made ( https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=333516). Because i not enough money to buy the normal 4xl, i just enough to buy one no face id. Thank you for your time

My 4XL can't face id 3d as normal different 4XL. So have a way to use face unlock, It's using font camera to use face unlock.

Interesting, this is new to me (unable to scan face for a PX4), what type of pixel 4 XL is it then? Or are there hardware issues I missed? I cant comment on this fix (I am not the dev here) but I might be able to help you once I know the scope of work.
@putzwon, I have used this OS (ROM) since Friday, and thoroughly testing EVERYTHING! WOW, I am literally floored at how well EVERYTHING works!!
I have NO ISSUES, NO BUGS, NO SHOWSTOPPERS, nada. Even Now Playing works, I am floored by all of this! It is amazing, and I rarely say that about a ROM (with no bugs also being reported - at the same time), and as I noted earlier, in the past, cRdroid wasn't great for me (random bugs, and/or missing features I rely on). NOT this version, this version IS GREAT FOR ME, I have EVERY SINGLE possible tweak I want/need/use, PLUS functional services / RIL (Radio Interface Layer) I.E. CALLs/TXT/MMS, PLUS no bugs, or FCs, or anything that would keep me away!
Normally, I use LOS, and LOS only (while testing all other ROMs for users and myself), but always landing back with LOS, not this time! I am STICKING WITH cRdroid for the foreseeable future, it is my DailyDriver and will remain so until something changes (but doubtful at this point)!! I have everything I need, baked right into the ROM, so I don't even need my LSPosed modules (other than SafetyNetFix once ROOT'ng)!
EXTREMELY WELL DONE and THANK YOU FOR THIS ROM!!!! For the rest of XDA users, this ROM WORKS! It works EXTREMELY WELL, is bug-free (from my extensive testing and standpoint). I haven't found any bugs yet (not a single one)!

Yes, this is a type of 4XL, it's cheaper to 20% .
Installed it yesterday and almost everything is working perfectly. The only feature that seems to be missing Soli which is a shame since it's a fun novelty.
best rom ever love you
thaaanks
Thanks for the rom. Perhaps anyone could advice me if there is an easy switch from LOS 20 to this rom? If possible I'd like to avoid installing all apps again ... including the "security" features for a couple of sensitiv apps like bank apps.
Perhaps someone knows if restoring a swiftbackup would work.
Thanks

it is easy
i do it everytime I flash a custom rom
you need to root your phone using magisk
then instal
Migrate - ROM backup 5.0.1​from play store
open it and take a full backup of your installed apps
copie this backup to your laptop
and after flashing this perfect rom
copie the backup from the laptop to the phone
and root the phone again
and instal
Migrate flasher​from play store
open it
and flash the file you backed up
this way you will have allll your apps including your banking apps with all your data
you will not have to instal anything twise...
good luck
it is easy
don't worry..
