Excuse my ingorance and lack of knowledge, but

How do I unlock bootloader on this ROM? i checked via [fastboot oem device-info] and it says my bootloader is locked.
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] Kas:
Go to settings ->Developer Option-> enable OEM Unlocking
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] blantek:
There is no such option. I have AOSP-Ext 4.4

fastboot oem device-info

(bootloader) Device unlocked: false
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] Kas:
ah sry i thought u were on stock....

did u try

fastboot oem unlock
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] blantek:
It did not work :(

fastboot oem unlock
...
FAILED (remote: oem unlock is not allowed)

Story: I had stock ROM, unlocked bootloader from dev options, then I failed to flash RR Marshmallow (no boot), I recovered my phone with qfil to stock ROM, flashed AOSP successfully. Now I'm not exactly sure I unlocked bootloader after restoring to stock via qfil but how else would I flash AOSP...? (it was 3 months ago I don't remember) So I'm guessing bootloader was unlocked until I flashed this very ROM and now I'm clueless how to flash this device again.

Thanks for trying to help me.

power+vol- results in fastboot mode, where i discovered bootloader is locked

power+vol+ phone freezes on lenovo logo

power+vol-+vol+ phone boots to android system recovery

Update

check the official site or afh for the new update with october security patch .
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] Nikish21:
Can the latest version v4.6 be dirty flashed over the last month's v4.6 Also [MENTION=6998569]Harry8242[/MENTION] as a future request kindly consider for getting better battery backup. AEX has the best performance but when it comes to battery backup it is bit behind then the stock rom. If this aspect of this rom is fixed AEX will be best we can get. Also we don't have active custom kernel development so we have to stick to stock kernel: So Kindly Consider this in future builds.

So due to the fact that i started seeing negative feedback on my thread for something i didn't even build and i want to apologize in advance if i cause any trouble to some people

i decided to offer a new build of v4.6 AEX ROM with October security update and kernel updated to caf/LA.BR.1.2.9_rb1.26

[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] eurodiesel:
Tnx a lot my friend for your hard work.

The new dev has to get used to new stuff, its natural. lets give him some time imho.

good luck and have fun with oreos!

(iirc you said we'll see on oreo side)
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] Harry8242:
[MENTION=1149134]Demetris[/MENTION]The issues that were reported were already there in your previous builds like the frequency locking issue and the launcher search bug (which is a source bug btw). I don't know why people started complaining right after the maintainer changed. So if people are having a problem with me , I am more than happy to give it back to you.I am not saying I am not supposed to fix these bugs but I just wanted to see people's reactions without any change from my side and one more reason why I did not make any changes from my side was I didn't want to introduce any bugs since it being my first and also final release which it clearly is not now.

I basically used all your sources assuming that people like your final 4.6 build from the comments that were posted on the thread at that time. Even the kernel btw which had the latest caf merged
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] ramoer:
Some old bugs

A few bugs have been around for a while:

# After switching the flight mode on and then off, the calling SIM preference is gone and SIM 1 is automatically selected.

# SIM 2 doesn't support 3G/4G (is this a bug or lack of feature??)
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] Harry8242:
And sir pls do report if you having this issue in the new build by demetris :eek:
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] Vip.Shaper:
Harry, you are an excellent developer, and I really like all your work: oroeo, nougat, they are all done very well, and I respect your work. Thank you for that. But unfortunately, some users often behave in this way: they are silent at first, but I start to say everything to a new developer (although I was silent until then). Many do not appreciate work. But again - your work is magnificent, and deserve attention and respect. Thank you again, for the abundance of Rom made by you, for us.
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] adinechin:
This is not a bug and 3G/4G does work on SIM 2. You have to manually switch SIM 1 to 2G preferred and then SIM 2 to 3G or 4G.

This is because both SIM cards cannot be in 4G simultaneously (even with data inactive).
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] ramoer:
You are right, it's working indeed. But isn't the requirement for manual switching non-intuitive?
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] kheviin01:
Harry's work is all good.
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] Nikish21:
Respected developer [MENTION=6998569]Harry8242[/MENTION] I tested the new build by [MENTION=1149134]Demetris[/MENTION] and unfortunately problem isn't solved. Also as a confirmation I tested v4.6 with September sp and the problem too is there. So the problem was there last month' too but once a custom kernel is installed problem got solved. I appreciate your hard work you put into for the roms (v5.0 etc) and also believe that the problem could have been solved by you. But still I support your step that you didn't made changes since it's the last nougat based aex ROM and these are final builds.

But I expect your great support for v5.0 like you did in other custom roms by you.
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] adinechin:
I totally agree, and if you search for my posts, you will see that I'm really requesting an improvement here ;)
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] sameer12dhi:
I have a video proof that these issues were not present in previous build atleast for me I did send the video to Harris and please if I had faced these issues in previous build , I would have mentioned them but I didn't. Harris is a great Dev and he is really working hard for the development of this device. I really appreciate his work but it's not that I am having any problem that now Harris is maintaining this ROM.Harris I really applogize for it.
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] Harry8242:
OK leave all that now, just test today's build and see if the issue is still there.

And also explain clearly what the issues are.

and btw [MENTION=8107645]sameer12dhi[/MENTION] clean flash the rom and also no custom kernels should be flashed in between. and send a screenshot
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] sameer12dhi:
Yeah sure. Will try it tomorrow
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] sameer12dhi:
Just in case if anyone wanted proof that I am not lying that the issue are not present in previous September build.
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] eurodiesel:
Can U try this:

1. select "show taps" in the Developer options.

2. reboot

3.try tappin the screen after the G logo and look for white spots.

This will ensure whether the device freezes or not

I kinda had this issue, and since i have show taps selected, it looks like its not a bug imho

apologies for taking your time. Have a good night bros.

[MENTION=6998569]Harry8242[/MENTION] just because somebody doesnt know how to behave correctly doesnt mean you're a bad guy. Dont be upset cause of them. Have a nice day??

Edit: i dont wanna insult anybody by saying the above. Everyone knows who themselves are. Nuff said.
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] NeerajMaxJ:
OK um I'm facing the black screen issue...

I actually had it from the older 4.6 (aex animation one) to now as well....

All clean flashed

Just one thing that it not exactly a black screen, its black screen with a message in middle of screen saying hold the power button to interact...(I holded it showed the power hold shortcuts....)

I was not reporting here it because I thought that maybe my phone is slow and takes a bit time to start, I mean the phone start like within 15 seconds so....

Sometimes the message does not come starts normally, and sometimes it comes and goes in 2-3 seconds....

Also it seems that if I turn on the screen to use, after about RANDOM time the black screen comes with that message.... sorry I didn't come up earlier I just thought it was slow for that.... I just read the posts here and think I should update u people :laugh:

But I'm not bothered with this because this phone is not my everyday use one... Its kind of only home use, Like Netflix, Spotify, Movies, etc....

Ah and and the android crashes the app(heavy games) which like warms up the phone to a part or if my ram is near 970mb free....

And In developer options-background process limit....

Its the only option that get set to standard even after I keep it to no,1,2,3.... The settings gets changed(defaulted) as soon as I quit the settings app

Again this is not my regular phone so I kept it is what it is but reading above thought I should help haha....:):rolleyes::silly:
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] sameer12dhi:
You just need to disable the pocket mode in extensions that's what it is. Whenever there is something near your screen covering the proximity sensor it will show this screen. Juts try it yourself ,lock your device and then put one finger on proximity sensor and try to unlock your phone.

Edit:- The option to disable it is present in display settings.
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] sameer12dhi:
Here is the screenshots of 8th October build. I flashed the rom twice today because at first try after flashing it I messed with the systemUi. I noticed something when I flashed it first time the cpu frequencies were locked and after reboot they were not and changing cpu frequencies by changing governer parameters also works.when I flashed it second time the screenshots are of second time only they were not locked.

Idk what must be causing such issues.

And please note that I clean flashed the rom both times.
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] asakin:
So by giving this proof...what will you get huh?? for God sake

Such a .....
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] sameer12dhi:
They were not believing that the bug is not present in previous build so I thought this might make them believe and I am not going to get anything I Just want to prove myself right isn't it what you would have also wanted.
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] NeerajMaxJ:
Um this option is already disabled....
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] Harry8242:
This is the same behavior that I observed when I flashed my build yesterday(locked at first and then normal after a while ) So that is what I have been saying, there is not even a single difference between mine and demetris's build and BTW just search for 800mhz in this thread, it's been reported right from 4.1 and also one guy reported here in this thread that it is there in the September build whether temporary or not.just search for the keyword and you'll know what I am talking about.

The last image is from September and the guy is giving his opinion about the September 16th build. Hope this puts an end to this discussion.
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] sameer12dhi:
Yeah I accept that it was my fault that I reflashed the previous build without testing it for a day sorry for that but the major reason for downgrade was the inability of apps other than the system apps to install apks. Now everything is working perfectly on the build by demetris. I am really sorry for the confusion caused.I hope you will continue to maintain this rom.
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] Harry8242:
this is not an issue caused by me building as i have said before . the inability to uninstall apks from third party file managers is a security measure which is there now in all roms which have latest security patch merged . you are supposed to install via the inbuilt file manager or the google play store . its to prevent tapjacking . Read this article

https://blog.devknox.io/tapjacking-android-prevent/.if it is working now in demetris's build , then the aex team probably made some changes in the source because users were complaining about it in the telegram group. anyways lets put this behind this and move on . Anyways [MENTION=1149134]Demetris[/MENTION] i am very disappointed with what you did yesterday after it was mutually agreed that i am the one going to maintain it now , there have been negative comments in this thread before too . so i dont know what changed this time around now . You could have atleast had the courtesy of consulting with me before doing this
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] sameer12dhi:
And as of the other bugs reported. I didn't face any one of them other than the locked frequencies (which was not the case) everything else was working perfectly.
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] Harry8242:
Anyways lets move on , i dont wish to make this issue too big of a deal anymore . i'll be opening the v5 alpha thread soon , you can address your issues there so that we could get rid of any more negative reviews for mr [MENTION=1149134]Demetris[/MENTION]

noob here, I have installed this ROM and now the Unlock OEM option is gone so I can't flash anything via ADB.

What am I supposed to do here?
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] lucasdeeiroz:
You are supposed to flash ROMs via Recovery, not ADB.
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] eurodiesel:
Inztall using builtin filemanagr
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] eNemy-:
I am not trying to flash the ROM via ADB, I am trying to get into the recovery via ADB but once I get the device into bootloaders, ADB does not recognize the device anymore. So I thought it might be related to unlocking bootloaders.

I have already flashed the ROM but did the temporary TWRP boot since the permanent did not work. And now I am back to the stock recovery.
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] eurodiesel:
In no hell the adb will work on bootloader mode

Thatz why there is something called FASTBOOT

And letme remind ya:

There are plenty tutorials about flashing roms
[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] lucasdeeiroz:
You are trying to boot twrp via ADB on bootloader? That's not gonna work. You'll need fastboot. If that doesn't work, you should reinstall either ADB/Fastboot and device drivers on your PC.
