Hello and good day everyone,
I am facing alot of unfamiliar behavior because of the Chinese Rom also i can`t install the Global Rom as per the Nubia Tech support.
So i decided to root my device and install a custom rom that i can do everything i want as per my older android devices.
I looked on many sites but i didn`t find any repo i can install it on my device!
Does anyone know of Custom Rom that is support on Red Magic 7 Pro????
The device just launched globally and there isnt even a TWRP build yet.
You will need to wait quite a while, even then, this is a very niche device and might never get a custom rom.
That's unfortunate news for me!!!!
The device is one of the best I have ever used,
But the Android system they installed on it is Bull......
That's something i'm very concerned over, I wouldn't want to purchase a device that doesn't have any custom roms available , I much prefer clean stock android or pixel experience roms , it's concerning to consider this phone may be stuck with only firmware updates from the official manufacturer, I also tried looking for older models from redmagic and they also seem to have very minimal to no custom roms,
I don't trust redmagic with keeping up to date with android judging by how older models also not getting any firmware updates to android 11,12,13...
I am personally holding off from buying this phone because of this factor , likely will end up buying a different phone if something more interesting will release from a more known manufacturer with better custom development community
Actually, this device is not compatible with Twrp.
We have to wait a long time to see a custom rom.

Hi guys,
I actually own a Mate 10 pro, but the Mate 10 forum is quite dead tbh, since both devices are so similar, I hope I can get some answers here
Hi guys,
Although I'm not a totally newbie, I mean I installed Honeycomb on the OG Desire watch out for the volume tho, but I'm totally new to the Huawei thing, although I've owned a Ascend Mate 7 and a P9+ I never went as far as looking for root and custom ROMs, and I'm specially not educated in the whole architectural changes that treble brings.
So I've a few questions, and hopefully someone can clear some of them for me.
1- Unlocked BL means no OTA right? Also not via Firmware Finder?
2- Running stock, if a new update pops up on the web, I download the .zip and extract everything. I can flash the systems but I'm missing lots of things there, fixes on the kernel, and other stuff. Should I flash them all? Is it recommend? Or are the risks to high? Should I wait for the specific rom to be signed for my IMEI or am I okay as long as I choose the right branding (Europe for me).
3- And having magisk root... Does will it make flashing a new update any complicated?
4 - (and the last), when running a AOSP rom, is it possible/recommend to extract a new stock kernel and flash it when an update is available?
Thanks a lot
Hi for all. I want download android one, more simple possible, without many apps. where can I get it? I have a Samsung. thanks.
Android One is a series of smartphones that runs unmodified Android, I don't think that's possible.
You can however flash a custom ROM to your device, AOSP would be nearest one to what you want but you'll have to check if it is available for your specific phone model, every Samsung is different and even one model can have slight variations (e.g with/without NFC) so be wary of that when searching for custom ROM
Hello all,
Here is my problem :
1) I'm 55 years old ... I have a second-hand LG G5 phone ... and I don't mean to change it ... for the next 5 years (unless hardware problems)
2) I don't mean to change it for several years because of money, age, and because I love this phone for its camera qualities beside its phone qualities
Considering this, WHAT would be the best rom or custom rom to choose and install on my phone (or any equivalent phone) to keep it safe (security updates)
To be clear, let's think PC and Windows ...
On my old HP notebook, still working great, (DV7, produced in 2013), I can run W7 (stock), W8 (upgrade) and W10 (latest upgrade possible so far, with W8 drivers) WITHOUT problems AND GET security updates ... from Microsoft update system no matter the system (W7-W8-W10 as of 2019) ...
Is there such a thing with Android ROMS ?
Older "stock or custom roms" with security patches with "up-to-date patches" ?
And what rom (custom I guess than stock) should I choose to get security updates as long as possible ?
Yours
Sorry for the "and" repeated in the title ... please, Moderators, cancel the second "and"..

You need to be asking this o2n your device specific forum here at XDA, the users there are the ones that are familiar with the various ROMs for your device and what is or isn't offered or available when using those ROMs.
I know it's a lot of work, but you're just gonna have to buckle down and get your hands dirty digging in the dirt and trying different ROMs to see what can and can't be done or what is or isn't available with the various ROMs available for your device. There is no easy or simple answer to your question.

Hello everyone !
I just got a Vivo Y70 and I wanted to try to install other OS on it.
But I don't seem to find anything for this model.
Isn't there really not much thing for this device ?
Thanks in advance.
unfortunaltey this is the phone no one wants to develop for
not even a single custom rom found although i found it a good mid ranger budget phone with quite good camera and processing ability .
If only there was a bootstrap to begin with, I have this phone and I'm sick of all that boilerplate iManager and app killer...
As a dev guy, I will be happy to at least provide some tips and improve my life and your if you find the firsts steps of how to root a phone (some endpoint to enter the bootloader code, and root safely a phone)
I am also waiting if someone can figure out the steps to go back to android 10 for Y70 phone it was working pretty fast but as i updated to android 11 its almost dead slow now .. and guess what there is no option to revert back to stock android 10 firmware as well.
Well I have just received an OTA official security update (March 2023), so the device is still supported by the manufaturer: I do not see yet an urgent need for a custom ROM. I'll be waiting at the door when the phone will start aging more.
Hey there,
I´ve had a Chuwi Hi8 lying in a drawer for years because I never had use for it. Now I would love to use it as a Dashboard for my Home-Assistant but that would require Android 5+.
I know that there are update for this Device around but all links on the official forums are dead and there are LOTS of shady sites when googling for updates to this device.
Ofc it is a far shot finding someone here that has experience with a stupid Device like this but hey, maybe I hit the jackpot
Moving from Android 4.4 to Android 5+ isn't an update but an upgrade.
To upgrade your phone's Android you need a
1. Custom Recovery
2. Custom ROM
both suitable to the phone.
If both found then you flash the Custom Recovery and if successful, you flash the Custom ROM by means of the Custom Recovery.
