[CM12/12.1-UPDATED] S4 Display Color Profiles for CyanogenMod 11, 12, 12.1

### CM12(.1) UPDATE ### (see bottom)
Hey Folks,
are you also tired of the oversaturated colors of the S4 amoled display??
I found out that the S4minisettings.apk, that was originally developed for the S4 Mini by @F4k to regulate the saturation and other colour concerning features, does the job for the S4 aswell! It works very similar to the colour profiles built into samsung stock roms.
After installation you can find a new settings option "advanced settings" in systemsettings/display just like they're are built in into the carbon roms.
Installation:
Download the apk from the link below.
Then you have to manually put the s4minisettings.apk to /system/app and after that it's very important to set ownership and permissions as follows:
Owner: root, root
Permissions: rw,r,r (644)
reboot!
The main option to reduce the saturation is called "Mode - Set the mDNIe mode". I choose "natural" and the oversaturation of the display is gone!
Some other options don't apply until you switch screen off an on once.

all thanks go to @F4k for creating this nice apk!
###CM12(.1)-Instructions###
So, f4k made a new lollipop version of this tool S4MiniSettings and built it into his S4 Mini cm12 rom. I extracted it and offer it to you for download.
Instructions:
- extract zip
- copy the folder "S4Minisettings" to /system/app folder
- set permissions of the folder to rwxr-xr-x (755), the apk to rw-r--r-- (644)
- reboot
- after reboot there is a new icon in the app drawer
- if you prefered the setting "natural" from the kitkat version, now choose "movie"
Notes:
- Important: SELinux level higher than "strikt"/"enforcing" is needed to write to system folder and/or set permissions, and the apk to be loaded at boot. Custom kernels like Alucard mostly got SELinux set to "moderat".
- Don't be confused about the app name - it does work with the S4 - definitely!

Doesn't S4 4.4.2 have this by default? I can do same changes through my Display settings - no need for additional apk.

I use kernel perseus to better experience with real colors.

The "S4" has this by default in the Touchwiz ROM it ships with, but this thread is about CyanogenMod.
Speaking of which, it possible to adjust color cast in CM11 on my Note 8.0 under Display/Display Advanced. Maybe this feature will also come to CM11 on the i9500.

When i reboot nothing happends :/ i have everything like you said, bit it doestn appear. I have cm 11 snapshot m3, help?

Or does this only work on nightlies build?? :crying:

Did you set the permissions and owner correctly? Otherwise it can't work.

the permissions are exactly like you have it, but still its not working. It doesnt scan my apps when I reboot :/. Also worth noting, every time i go to see the permissions or change it it says in a square. "The current file system is read-only. Do you want to remount as read-write and continue the operation?" I click yes, then i change it rw--r--r and reboot and nothing happends. When I go check it againg is the same prosses all over againg.
Edit: Also, in my settings I have Display & lights instead of "Display" as the video shows. I know nothing and I understand this may be a dumb question, but it may had to do with the problem? sorry.

Over-saturated colours of S4? Oh Dear Lord :|

Which file manager do you use? "root explorer" i.e. has sometimes problems and sais it's write protected. I use "root browser" which does a good job, mostly.

And also tried the file manager provided with cm 11? Just have to "unleash" it in the options, I mean enable root mode.

This apk requires way too many permissions for the task it performs... Suspicious...
There is another option: KTweaker tool which comes with Ktoonsez kernels also allows to modify this setting (works with CM11 kernel, not only with Ktoonsez) .
After all this setting can be set via kernel "/sys" filesystem. From terminal emulator execute command:
Code:
echo 2 > /sys/class/mdnie/mdnie/mode
To make this change permanent (survive reboots and ROM updates) one may use init.d supplied with CM11, and create additional script in /data/local/ (in this location script will survive CM update).
Seems like init.d in CM11-M10 doesn't start scripts in /data/local/userinit.d/ directory, so the only option is to place script code to /data/local/userinit.sh
Permissions of this script must be set to 0755 (-rwxr-xr-x).
For anyone who interested in adopting this method I've prepared template script (also it sets some other available screen options, not only mode):
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
# For SGS4 screen mode can be chosen from:
# 0 - STANDARD
# 1 - DYNAMIC
# 2 - MOVIE
# 3 - NATURAL
echo 3 > /sys/class/mdnie/mdnie/mode
# For SGS4 screen scenario can be chosen from:
# 0 - UI_MODE
# 1 - VIDEO_MODE
# 2 - VIDEO_WARM_MODE
# 3 - VIDEO_COLD_MODE
# 4 - CAMERA_MODE
# 5 - NAVI
# 6 - GALLERY_MODE
# 7 - VT_MODE
# 8 - BROWSER
# 9 - eBOOK
echo 0 > /sys/class/mdnie/mdnie/scenario
# Other parameters are boolean: 0 - Disabled, 1 - Enabled
echo 0 > /sys/class/mdnie/mdnie/negative
echo 0 > /sys/class/mdnie/mdnie/outdoor
Additionally I've prepared TWRP (CWM should work also, but I've not tested) installable version of this script (see attachment).
In that case if you dislike my default setting you'll need to unpack it, edit "data/local/userinit.sh" and pack it back using zip.
PS
This MAY work with other Samsung AMOLED devices. I can confirm that it works with galaxy tab 7.7 (p6800).

It's not suspicious in any way! The developer f4k who wrote this little apk is a very honorable guy, just have a look at his profile and all of the work he does...
This apk does the job perfectly and doesn't do any harm to nothing.
Your remark/comment is very unnessessary here. So why don't you go start a thread your own instead of lousing this one up?

I'm not trying to blame anyone in anything.
I'm not a pro in android programming and maybe such permissions are implied to all apk's that manage system settings.
However I can't see any reason for app that manages screen settings to require permissions to make calls, access user contacts etc. and it seems suspicious to me. That's all.

When I was searching how to setup screen settings in CM11 on SGS4 I've found only this thread. And when I've managed to solve this problem with alternative method I've decided that other users maybe interested in this information. I've posted to Your thread because I thought that it is a good idea to post all possible solutions for 'S4 amoled display colour profiles with cyanogenmod 11' in one thread to help other people find them quickly and in one place.
Sorry if I was wrong and violated something.

Mostly when there are high ranking permissions for an app requested, it isn't because of maliciousness of the author, it's often just carelessness of the creator not deactivating them in the building tool's presets he uses.
And after all, just don't be so mistrustful about things coming from senior xda developers......
This method I announced here is very simple to install, safe and works perfectly even with the latest nightlies so far.

This will ensure that the phone gets connected with ADB.USB debugging is a must.
XPOSED INSTALLATION:
Once you root it, get xposed:
https://www.google.co.in/url?sa=t&s...4hIIplpc2uCc71RGw&sig2=81KGwq6e_se15gmH9Nys5g
Once you install it, you may get the bootanimation playing for long.
If that happens,force switch off your zenfone by pressing the power button for 8 seconds, then switch it on while pressing the volume up button.
It will enter droidboot,where you can go to the recovery.
Once in recovery,if it shows no command,press the power and volume down button together and with your index and ring finger,and then use your middle finger to press the volume up button.
Once you do that, you'll get options ,one of which will be wipe cache partition.
Do that,and then reboot your phone.Your zenfone will be good to go.
Now ,you'll be able to do whatever the hell you want with LPThemer.I changed the notification bg using that.I use gravity box for media and power tweaks.Xuimod is for a particular listview animation that I love,explore it guys.And the rest are for convenience.Screenshot below.
QUICK SETTINGS AND SYSTEMUI THEMING:
Now for the quick settings,as all of you might be wondering ,here's what I did:
Downloaded the apk of zenmaterial theme for zenfone 2
Used fx root explorer to unzip the apk.
Long click on the app and press open with using Archive Extractor.
There,you will find a folder called res,and then go to drawable nodpi folder in it,where you'll be finding 3 png images .
Get the .png image which says header_bg at the end ,and create another copy of it.
Once you do that ,rename the copy as dell_header_bg.9.png and put it in the same folder.
Then,rename the quicksettings png to asus_quicksettings_bg.9.png.
Copy all of these.
Now go to the system root present in the main menu of fx .
Go to system>priv-app>asus systemui.
There you'll find the apk.extract it in a folder in the main storage.
Go to the same location in the extracted folder,ie res,and find drawable nodpi.
Paste the 4 images there .
Overwrite the images when asked.Now,delete asus_header_bg.9.png, the thumbnail is white in color.
Rename the pasted asus_header_bg.png to asus_header_bg.9.png.
The quick settings background has been set for now.
Once you manage to do that,go back to the zenmaterial extracted folder,and find drawable_sw360dp_xhdpi.In that,start marking all the png images till you reach asus_ep_statusicon_wifisharing_on.png .
Including that,copy all the files,and paste them in the corresponding folder in the extracted Systemui,overwrite when asked.
You're almost done.
Close the folders,and make the extracted Systemui a zip archive.
Once that's done,rename it to AsusSystemUi.apk .
Copy this apk,and place it in the original position ,in system> priv app> AsusSystemUi.overwrite and reboot .

The video playback bug was fixed in this version of the ROM,but there are other new bugs.Fortunately,all are fixable.
1.Graphic lag and battery drain, can be fixed by flashing this boot image
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B05UM2q8MdJFWFltYVl5R0FMa0E/view?usp=sharing&pli=1
2:Storage full notification,can be fixed by flashing the zip file in the link fro TWRP(guide above).Mount system,and place the zip file in the internal storage before flashing.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3D_bnxw-78yNkhzNTYwQkF1aW8/view?usp=drivesdk&pli=1
3.LED light fix:
Use root explorer.
Paste lights.clovertrail.so inside System/lib/hw.
set permission.Link is here:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0ByqUHDVZPNxnOW1XNVNDTjl1aDg/view?usp=docslist_api
Battery backup can be further improved by using this:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0ByqUHDVZPNxnTnQ1S1Q2ZXdaQjA/view?usp=docslist_api.
The above link has some xposed modules

Sir i had rooted my zenfone 5 With one click method on lollypop. By root checker it shows root access. But in some apps like wifi kill and titanium backup it asks for root privileges and says no root access. Please suggest me what should i do for getting out this problem. Wifi kill app is too much necessary for me. Thanks in advance.

Is SuperSU properly configured?
That may lead to a problem.

Dont know about wifi kill but titanium can sometimes do this if u restore a backup.....please fresh install both apps and then retry...

After flashing this boot img I don't get any 3g or 2g net, please help

I don't know what is wrong with the boot image. Perfectly works for me.Try reinstalling the ROM.Make sure you wipe the cache and factory reset.Flash the boot image in the zip of the ROM first,and then Flash boot-stock.img.Hope this helps.

tip

LG G Flex 2 H959 Ultimate Mod Guide

(ATTENTION: Using this guide is your choice. I am not responsible if your phone gets bricked. All I'm doing is sharing my results so people can enjoy a better experience on their G Flex2, I do not know if this guide will work in anyone else's phone, I only know it worked on mine)
Hello, and welcome to my guide . I'm going to guide you through all the process I went through to install mods that will tweak your experience. The tweaks and mods used, are, as follows:
Audio Enhancement [Viper4Audio (credits to: users zhuhang and guitardedhero) Dolby Atmos (credits to: users guitardedhero and worstenbrood) and a modified mixer_paths profile (credits to: users paris07121978 and soosoolhastam)]
Camera Enhancement [modified camera_config and media_profiles (credits to: user jacksoncolocho)]
Screen And G4 Style-Tweaks [Flash-Mods (credits to: user bountyman334)]
Better Performance and Less Heat Output [modified thermal-engine-8994 (credits to: user probaina) tweaked interactive governors (credits to: users soosoolhastam and soniCron)]
Widened Scope of Phone Modifications [Xposed (credits to: user rovo89)]
Latest (Lollipop, Marshmallow on a locked bootloader is not rootable yet) Software Rooted Image (as of 5th of June, 2016) [15e rootedsystem image (credits to: user kevin3688)]
(I'm so sorry if I let anyone out, if I forgot to credit someone, please reply and I'll add him/her)
TL;DR, here's the guide:
1. (If you haven't already) Flash this image (https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0UblGbOPFYBT2RERDZKcUhqcnM/view) on your phone, with this guide (http://forum.xda-developers.com/g-flex2/general/lg-h959-v15a-rooted-andriod-5-1-1-t3178517). Note that that flash command works for the 15e image. Now you have the latest software version.
2. Download and Install (on your phone) FlashFire, from the google store (yes, from the google store, not the old 0.24 version).
3. Download and install Stericon's busybox from the play store.
4. Download XposedInstaller.apk into your phone and also download the zip file (the one you'll flash with FlashFire), which has to be from sdk22 (that's for android 5.1.1) and from arm64 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3034811). Make sure to download the latest one. Now open Flashfire and flash the zip file (+ button, tap on flash zip or ota, select the zip file to the downloaded location, and uncheck mount read/write, then tap on flash). Afterwards, install the downloaded XposedInstaller.apk on your phone and open it. You are now able to use Xposed, which is a unique framework that allows you to download modules, which are "apps" that can change your phone in a lot of ways, way more than a regular app, I think. To install modules, open the XposedInstaller and... you'll figure it out.
5. Downgrade your flashfire app into the 0.24 version, by uninstalling it and installing this version instead (http://flashfireapk.com/flashfire-0.24.apk).
6. Flash the mod (same thing as before, but now there's only the auto-mount option, don't check it) provided by this thread, look for the h959 link (http://forum.xda-developers.com/g-flex2/development/dec-21-stock-lollipop-flex-2-ls996-t3275531). Download it (on your phone) and flash it with FlashFire (it might take a while). Now you should have a slightly better screen, G4 design changes and other tweaks to your phone.
7. Uninstall flashfire 0.24 and install the version from the google store again.
8. Download the Dolby Atmos zip file (http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/mod-dolby-atmos-t3109446) and flash it with FlashFire (same thing as before, now there are more options again, uncheck mount read/write again). You should now have a dolby atmos app on your app drawer, it uses an intelligent equalizer and other cool stuff to make your audio sound better. Tweak it to your liking.
9. Download the zip file "ViperAtmos x (x represents the latest version, 5.5 as of now) sony beats edition" (link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/viperaudio-viperatmos-3-8-sq-driver-t3289075) (that "sony beats edition" is not completely necessary, so if in a future version it's not there anymore, don't worry about it). But don't flash it. Instead, copy the content of that zip file to your root folder (mount the folder as read/write with your file explorer and overwrite what's already there) (the lowest/highest folder on your phone, it's not accessible via pc, only via a root browser). The folder can also be called "system(root)" or a hashtag or just "/", don't confuse it with the folder named root that is inside "/" or the folder "system" that is also inside "/". If any files couldn't be placed, like for example audio_effects.conf, try finding that file (it's in "vendor/ect", "system/etc" and "system/vendor/etc") and mount that file read/write, now try copying and pasting again, if it doesn't work again try rebooting and trying again. Open the V4A (V4A stands for Viper4Android) app, it may say to install drivers or it might be already installed, if it says install drivers tap on ok. It will say drivers are installed, so reboot.
10. Download and install SE Linux Mode Changer (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2524485), give it root permission and change the mode to permissive. Now Viper4Android and Dolby Atmos should be working together. Viper4Android is an audio tweaking tool that enhances your listening experience, and gives you a range of customization to do so. Tweak it to your liking.
11. Download the following file: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3566699&d=1449390187 (delete the mixer_paths from that zip file). Also download the mixer_paths file from this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/g-flex2/development/surround-mode-h955-t3376881), look for the latest post of the user "soosoolhastam" on that thread, the one where he uploaded his modification of the mixer_paths file. Also download the thermal-engine-8994 file from Probaina here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/g-flex2/general/thermal-throttling-hotplug-settings-t3106165), it's in a reply he made to his own thread, it's on the first page. Now that all those files are on your phone, use a root text editor (the only one that worked for me is the app QuickEdit) to copy the content of all those files, and replace the content from the files (with the same name) on the folder /etc. Don't replace the files, since that "broke" my phone, just replace the text content of those files with the content of the files you downloaded, that have the same name. Now you have unlocked 60fps on your camera, your photos are now all stored with 100% quality, your audio has a higher volume and it's more surround, and your phone should heat up less.
12. Download the file "init.qcom.post_boot_xxxxxx.zip" (again, the Xs represent whatever the latest version is, choose the biggest number, not the "original" version) from here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/g-flex2/general/tweak-interactive-governor-lag-battery-t3371210). Extract the file and navigate to the folder GhostPepperVx (x=latest version) (you can choose from the other folders if you want, they have different cpu governors, if you want to try another one) then copy the file "init.qcom.post_boot" inside that folder into system/etc. Make sure your phone is not overheated (since that changes things).
13.Wipe dalvik cache with flash fire to cleanup your phone after all the flashes and stuff. There. Now your phone should be better in every way!

Sorry mate, but at least flashing the h959 rooted image won't work, certainly. And I'm not sure how the installation would go in your model. I'm really sorry, I wish I could help.

The G4 mod changes a lot of things, some things I didn't even like, like the phone dialer and the contacts design, but I'm keeping it because of the rest of the things that come with the mod. I'll list the things I noticed until now: changes (very minor) to the little menu that pops up when you slide down, it adds a button (an engine icon) to access settings faster (was it already there?), and by its side there's a button that redirects you to a menu where you can change "users", not quite sure how that works, the default calling app is completely changed, I think the design changes are from G4. When you insert headphones/usb a little menu pops up, I just checked and apparently it's a feature called "plug and pop apps", one of the apps that is shown by default is the music app. The mod adds a new app to the menu drawer, called "QTheater", not sure what it does yet. Clock app looks unchanged, gallery app has a new icon, but aside from that nothing's changed there. Quickmemo+ seems also unchanged. Music app is... A little different. Kinda uglier, in my opinion, really. Calculator's the same. Camera app is the same. OOH! Never mind, gallery app is so much better, I really can't describe well what I'm seeing here, you'll have to try it out for yourself. Calendar app just changed to color of the (orange or red?) on it to a more orange one. Email app is the same (who uses that app?). Tasks app is the same. Weather app is also the same. Voice recorder is the same. Dunno if Voice Mate app is changed, never paid attention to it. Update center app is the same. Settings app has a dramatic design change. A bunch of new features on the settings app, including a setting for the phone to read messages out loud. Holy moly so many new features in the settings app. I think that's it. Until now I haven't noticed any other differences until now. You can install a module for Xposed to get more g4 tweaks, including the option to record your calls! Sorry if I missed anything.

I'm not sure but I think so. But I am sure you can always re-flash the 15e image (that'll erase all the mods, and don't worry, it won't erase any of your data, only the mods), and you can follow the guide without installing the mods you don't like, like the g4 tweaks mod.

[MOD][Nougat] Stock File Manager has some hidden features, enable them! (How-To)

I noticed that S8 and Note FE ROMs have some extra features that the regular Note5 didn't have, at least not without rooting and modifying it. Some of them are very easy to enable like this but a modified device is required. This time is about the My Files app, the stock Samsung file explorer.

After a Reboot the changes will appear, if not try clearing the app's data.
I attached MY OWN files for reference, you can use the .zip to install yours. My phone is a Sprint model (SM-N920P) so don't try to flash it on any other model.
This is a good time to enable the unit converter in the stock calculator app and some other mods.

Doesn't work that way. If you don't modify at least the floating_feature.xml you won't get the hidden features, no matter how updated the app is. I tried, that's when I came to understand that was a "CSC mod". If you are on a custom ROM of course it will work because S8 or Note FE have this already enabled.

Well. Watch out.
There is a missmatch in that line:
<CscFeature_VoiceCall_ConfigRecording>RecordingAll owed</CscFeature_VoiceCall_ConfigRecording>
It should be without the blank spcace in "RecordingAll owed", but RecordingAllowed", my friend.
Po properly it should look like this"
<CscFeature_VoiceCall_ConfigRecording>RecordingAllowed</CscFeature_VoiceCall_ConfigRecording>
Do NOT forget after putting these line in the "cscfeature.xml"-file to do these 2 things:
1. Set permissions to the file "others.xml" to 0644
(if you're on Nougat, then the file is "cscfeature.xml" in this folder:
system/omc/"your CSC"/cscfeature.xml
Set permissions (if changed) to your CSC folder (in my case it's "XEO") to 0755.
2. Restart.
Now, good luck.
In my case it worked like hell

[HELP] Leagoo T5: why is not available any ROM ?

Hello
I've a Leagoo T5 wich use his own Nougat modifiied. TERRIFIC !!!
I'm looking for another ROM wich supporting all feature (also double rear camera and fingerprint reader) because it's impossible to use it.
T.I.A.

You can use "MTK Extractor" to extract system.img and other files, you can then modify them, and flash them using "SP Flash".
I recently uploaded a clean stock ROM (LEAGOO_T5_OS2.1_E_20180116) to Mediafire and Needrom.
I've also uploaded a carepack if you are interested in the new ROM, or even for a custom.
The command for fast boot is: fastboot oem unlock

Do you mind sharing please? I'd love to get a working custom rom on this device.

I still can't add links yet, so you will have to Google search: "MTK Extractor". Download it, and then download the latest official ROM, which I have uploaded to Needrom and Mediafire, Google search: "OS2.1_E_20180116".
Extract the "system.img" file from the stock ROM using MTK Extractor, you can then go ahead and make your customization's. System apks are signed and locked, however they can be replaced.
When you have finished, you can use MTK Extractor to create a new system.img file with all of your modifications (including root, if you add it). The size for system.img is 4096mb.
The MTK Extractor tool uses a slider bar and text input for the partition size, the slider is limited, however enter 4096 into the text box (don't delete the text, it bugs).
Enter fastboot (Power + Volume up), third option, then using ADB with command prompt, type the command: "fastboot oem unlock", and then accept.
Now you have unlocked the phone, you can run your custom ROM. In a factory locked state, ROM's will install, but not run.

I forgot to mention my Needrom pack contains MTK Extractor. If you can make roms, there are 3 stock bugs that I would ask you to fix.
1: If the navigation bar is hidden, there is a window transition blip (bottom of the screen) if you swipe to recent apps.
2: If you select the first (bottom left) icon from the lock screen (voice, usually), you get a grey background.
3: Bluetooth scanning sometimes bugs (MAC instead of name), once paired there are no issues.*
* This may be due to my headset, but I remember my TV also displaying a MAC once.
Also, can you align or remove the 4G icon that shows even with data turned off.

Ok... So far this thread seems to be the only one on xda-dev about leagoo T5, which i just buy.
By the way thanks Ferather for pushing the rom on need rom.

Need help
Hi, could you please share the Mediafire link?

Since the last rom update (LEAGOO_T5_OS2.1_E_20180822 aka OS2.1_E_20181025) I post on needrom a moded rooted boot with magisk.

i have this leagoo t5 running this newest e_20181025 but im getting a problem with my front facing camera only displaying like an upsidedown image of the rear camera. please advise on what i can do to fix this

Maybe inconsistence between differents partitions (like boot and system)
If you know what you are doing I will advise reflashing all principal partitions.
But i don't think the phone came like this when new, so someone must have messed something.

https://www.mediafire.com/#3c2rnntnz3kw0
LEAGOO_T5_OS2.1_E_20181025.zip -- Original Leagoo T5 ROM
LEAGOO_T5_OS2.1_C_20181025.zip -- Custom Leagoo T5 ROM
No issues, other than the one I have mentioned, which is just an app default.
Enjoy!

hey cool rom bro.
Thank for sharing.

No problem, I thought I would start the ball rolling for customization of the rom, since adding ringtones does not work with the stock rom (media storage app issue I think).
You can permanently edit the rom yourself, which I found very easy. If you want to add apps, simply install them from sdcard or store, then navigate to "/data/app", you will find your installed app or update, with odex files and libs, if any.
I created a temp folder on "/data" called "Working" and copied everything into it, and then setup the correct permissions, and renames, and transferred to either "/system/app" or "/system/priv-app", depending on the app.
A better way to do it, is to use "Lubuntu" from live USB or DVD, and then mount the image and edit it as root: "sudo *file explorer*", in this case "sudo pcmanfm-qt", then create a folder in "/mnt" called "ROM".
Next copy "system.img" to "/tmp", and mount it "sudo mount /tmp/system.img /mnt/ROM", now you can do whatever you like, but make sure to "chown" and "chmod" all your modifications.
Make sure you delete anything you will replace when you transfer, else you might get old unused files (folder merged and non-replaced items remain).
----
If you make edits on the phone using an app, and want to make your own "system.img", use the readback option in "SP Flash Tool".
physical_start_addr: 0xe000000
partition_size: 0x100000000
----
Note: Most non-stock apps *do not* support the triple (3x) camera setup, and will either use the wrong camera or crash.

Yeah I encounter problems too to add custom ringtone and wallpaper but i manage to get over it by changing some files permissions
By the way I am "456456" on needrom, the boot img with magisk is from me
I know the time needed to make a custom rom and I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one trying to mess with this not-bad-at-all cheap phone

There is a possibility of an Oreo port, there is a Leagoo T8s with the the same chip that runs Oreo 8.1.0. I have checked over the rom and it looks possible (based on my basic knowledge).

Cygwin + Cmder, for Android. I made the pack myself, and thought it might help others using Windows who want various Linux tools.
I added Cmder for better console support and easy admin: ---- http://www.mediafire.com/folder/lzsf7xd2wwsm4/Commander
Quick update, will now self configure "/home", added ADB and Fastboot.
