Lenovo K3 Note 10 ROMs success !! Boot ui works for 5.1 ROMs, but not for 6 and 7.1

Hi All,

I have installed 10 different ROMs using this Dual Boot Patcher (Lenovo K3 Note, 16GB internal, 64GB Memory Card). All ROMs works fine and switches using the app. But only one issue I see is with boot ui. I enabled boot ui in app and for 5.1 ROMs boot ui is showing up during boot and works fine. But for Android 6 and 7.1 ROMs, boot ui is not showing up during boot, instead the screen is off and the OS boots up successfully evenif it doesnot show boot ui. For some ROMs (among Android 6 and 7.1), the boot animation also is not showing when boot ui is enabled. This is the only one problem I face.

Another thing to mention is I tried out the boot utilities zip (flashed from TWRP) of dual boot patcher having Aroma ui and in Lenovo K3 Note, unfortunately touch won't work for this aroma utility of dual boot patcher. But I have following tips to navigate through it using volume buttons and power buttons.

1. For 'Next' press the vol up button once and then click power button, you can move to next page of that aroma screen. (You may not see 'next' as selected but it will work)

2. For selecting an option in the next step, again press vol up button and then use vol up or down to select an option and click power button to confirm

3. To go back simply touch the back button on bottom of phone.

cheers !!

[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] FunkyRasta:
Hello,

I can buy Axon7 on Aliexpress for around 330USD. Currently I'm using OPO and it is running just fine. I've got a few questions to you guys:

1. Are custom ROMs stable ( no bugs, battery drains, camera and sound is working like on stock )?

2. How far is Stock ROM from AOSP (recents, QS, settings) ?

3. Would you switch if you had OPO ?

4. Are there any news of update to Android O being planned ?

Thanks for the replies!
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] RUNNERX:
If you want front facing speakers, yes. If you like the huge amount of roms available for bacon, stay with that. I was on the opo and if it was not for the speakers on the a7 I would switch back.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] kodrnusa:
There are still enough roms available, just not like for op5. Roms are stable
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Choose an username...:
Most ROMs are somewhat stable, but all of them have a couple of bugs like mic broken until you turn on and off the loudspeaker (you can fix that with macrodroid). And the stock ROM works better than the custom ROMs no doubt. But I found out that (if you care more about MP3 music than FLAC lossless) V4A is better on custom ROMs than stock. and you can get more than 7 hours SOT on custom ROMs if done right (normally people get 5 on the stock ROM)

The stock ROM is totally different than AOSP. The stock launcher has no dock just like Apple stuff but it also comes with an alternative with dock. The icons are crappy though. If you install Lawnchair from XDA you get a launcher better than Pixel and stock icons for almost all of the apps. Recents is just like AOSP but with a Clear all button and a lock to avoid you closing the app by swiping or via the button. pretty handy!

Now, I had something weird happen to me: When I got my Moto G 2 I used the stock ROM for like 3 days and switched to customs. I never even thought about going back to stock for all the poor phone's life (like 1.5 years). now with this one, I try a couple of ROMs for a month or two, get bored and return to stock. Always happens. Many people say the same, that they started liking the stock ROM even though it strays from AOSP a lot. But it has its fair share of good things, like auto power-on some minutes before your alarm goes off, scheduled on and off, a Dolby Atmos QS tile... It's not bad because it doesn't look like AOSP. not at all.

Besides, MiFavor 5.0 was released for the Chinese and it looks very good!

The phone has hardware keys but the Chinese version hasn't, hence the on screen keys on the screenshot.

Update to O: No news yet, though if it comes, expect the first 2 or 3 builds to be riddled with bugs. ZTE's devs barely know how to use a keyboard. Up to B04 Nougat they broke the Play store then fixed it, broke exFAT for SD cards, then fixed it... People made petitions (basically spamming "We want Android O" on a petition thread on the German forums) but nobody said anything close to a confirmation.

Would I switch from a OnePlus One? 2K AMOLED screen, SD820, speakers better than Samsung's $800 phones come with, QC3.0, for 330 dollars? definitely

The screenshots I attached are from the Chinese MiFavor 5.0 because that's what I'm using right now. You can install it via TWRP if you want.

one thing though: If you can get an A2017U (US version) instead of an A2017 (Chinese Aliexpress version) you're gonna thank me. The U version has so much more development than the G or Chinese... Even people say that sound is better on it. It costs 330 dollars on the US too.

This phone is easy to brick, be REALLY careful and read everything twice before doing stuff or you can end up with a DFU brick which is the most hardcore brick of them all.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] FunkyRasta:
Wow, that's why I love XDA, thank you for this very helpful reply ! :)

So on official LOS for example microphone during call doesn't work until I toggle loudspeaker ? That's is... Weird . So even if you are running custom ROMs you are coming back to stock because of bugs and features :/

I noticed on videos that launcher and icons sucks. Can I just install nova launcher on stock and use it without any problem ?

About Chinese and American versions. The ROMs doesn't work on all version, the a2017, U and G ? I did some reading and I know there are different bootstacks and stuff but I though the custom ROMs are compatible with all regions.

Is this brick recoverable ? Is there a flashtool that will always rescue me ?

Thanks again !
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] kodrnusa:
Yes you can flash nova launcher. It is an app! There is a flashtool for flashing and recovering from soft/hard bricks. The phone just rocks...
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Choose an username...:
It's more complicated than that.

First of all: The modes on this phone are (were):

-EDL (Looks like it's completely off, it's not. You can flash special folder packages with MiFlash when you are in this mode)

-Bootloader mode (Fastboot. On A2017G and U they got rid of it. You can get it back by flashing a zip through TWRP, but if you update the stock ROM officially you'll lose it and will have to flash it again)

-Recovery. You can use axon7toolkit to unlock and install this. One-click tool like the one on Nexus 6 thread.

After you flash the Universal bootloader (for custom ROMs), your TWRP will get overwritten with an older one. Just keep a 3.1.1-0 img file and flash it in this crappy TWRP with Install -> Install image

-FTM. Seems that you get ADB when you are in this mode. Handy when you brick it horribly (no recovery) and can't access EDL. You just issue adb reboot edl and you should get to edl.

And last: DFU mode. Be REALLY careful with EVERYTHING, for example if you flash a system zip and TWRP says that you have no system installed, restore a backup, DON'T reboot! I had a DFU brick once and the two ways to recover from a DFU brick (No EDL, no fastboot, no recovery, very rarely FTM) are to discharge the phone completely and try to get into FTM, or take the phone apart and do the 4th category brick repair manual. I did the latter

But as of now no brick is unrecoverable. With A2017G's and U's you get a pretty overkill warranty, and you can return it claiming that it stopped working all of a sudden for example.

About the launcher: yeah, you can install whatever you like. I use Lawnchair.

And the ROM's work on all 3 phones, but it's the kernels that don't. Kernels work on the G and U on custom ROMs, but there is only one kernel that works for the U on stock, and none for the G. On the G the camera breaks on stock when you use a custom kernel. That's why I recommend you to get a U even if it's a little bit more expensive.

Is there a tool that will always save you from a brick? well there are many, but they will help you like 90% of the time. axon7tool is used to flash stuff to recovery or boot from EDL (you can flash TWRP for ex.), axon7toolkit can do some basic fastboot stuff, and MiFlash is the most useful, cause you can flash a full system directly from EDL and leave your phone in a functional state.So if, say, your digitizer breaks and you are on a custom ROM (and have an A2017G or A2017U, which have warranty) you can simply flash a working system and send it to fix.

If ZTE finds out that the phone has been tampered with (unlocked, opened, etc) they will charge you $80 but they'll fix it. If the phone doesn't even boot and it's a G they'll change it free of charge because of European laws

one more thing: you'll hate the quick settings thingy on stock. Try MiFavor 5.0 if you decide to stay stock, it's a Chinese ROM but with a bunch of work it can get pretty nice. I sent you a couple of screenies there
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] vision33r:
I would go for it because the newer LTE modems are so much better than any of the SD820 especially how poor both the Axon 7 and OP3 signals are compared to the SD821 and SD835. It is night and day in terms of connectivity. Performance wise it's also worth it.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] JLLE:
You don't need to flash Nova launcher, I am with the Stock rom and use Nova as it. Just install it and use it as default launcher.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] jaaystott:
Hi guys,

Sorry I just need a quick answer to this and I can't seem to find a straight answer anywhere. I have a G935F on 3 UK firmware and I want to change the firmware to either BTU or XEU, as the updates are ridiculously slow on this software version. I have read in multiple places that the CSC code is hard coded and cannot be changed, and then other places say this is merely cosmetic and flashing a new firmware will enable you to get OTA updates from the new desired CSC code.

Please can somebody shed some light on this for me, if I flash BTU or XEU will I be able to get updates as normal, and also which is better to flash XEU or BTU. If anybody can advise would either of these packages allow VoLTE and Wifi Calling to work? 3 supports them on the firmware I am currently on, but I was unsure if unbranded firmwares would support this.

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] mimo2008:
Hi if this is of any help i was on Vodafone and decided i didn't want there bloatware on here so i flashed the latest XEU as it was newer than BTU.

When i go into the phone app it shows me what my old csc was and the active one which is xeu you do get updates plus i got WiFi calling enabled still but had to get vodafone to activate it on my account again.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] asdfffas:
I wanted to flash a ROM, so I wiped system etc, then flashed a TWRP img and after I reboot to TWRP it asks me to enter a encrpytion password , but I haven't set any!!! please help
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] EvilHowl:
The password is your PIN/password on Android.

If you have a pattern, you can switch to a PIN or password to decrypt the storage on TWRP, or you can type the password in this order:

-1 2 3-

-4 5 6-

-7 8 9-

For example, if my pattern is a "L", I would type on TWRP: 14789
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] asdfffas:
I tried this without success but thanks for the help.

I fixed it by flashing fulmics ROM. I got some errors while flashing but it booted and my files are still there :)
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] ovu85:
Hi, i have the same problem, i've just unlocked bootloader, (forgot to remove screen lock pin+imprint), installed TWRP. and keeps ask about password. The partition is encrypted in recovery.

I've tried to erase userdata from fastboot, wipe data and format data from twrp.

Any help how can i get rid of the encryption?

Should i lock and unlock the bootloader again?

After i've unlocked the bootloader i didn't boot normally in android and wanted to install twrp.

i come from Nexus devices and it's way more easier there!
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] non.verbal:
erasing partition from fastboot make it have no filesystem or whatsoever and twrp sees that as encrypted filesystem . just press cancel or skip button at twrp encryption screen and it should show up twrp main menu. from there format data partition with ext4 and reboot. at least that's how I solved the problem. I highly recommend doing backup of your data first like photos , music etc. before messing with anything

Some background here:

So a buddy brought over a brand new V20 from sprint to me, begging for help. Since i unlock phones for a living, i was intrigued and a little puzzled.

Turns out he had taken it to some random guy to get it unlocked for gsm service here in Ghana, but sadly whoever it was screwed the pooch and more or less messed up the phone.

It basically boots up into fastboot mode and looks like this:

trying to get into download mode gives you this:

[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] sammy21271:
Hey guys,

So I bought the OnePlus 3T in December when it was launched. After a few days of using it I experienced some eyestrain and headache. I searched about what could be causing it but didn't find any strong cause. After searching alot I suspected that it may be happening because of the PWM screen flickering that happens in Super AMOLED screen phones. I really didn't want to return the phone as I really liked it and it was my first android phone and I really enjoyed using it. After weeks passed by I stopped feeling the eyestrain and headache.... I think I just got used to it.

Now, after 7 months of using the device, I have realized that once again that I am experiencing headaches after using the phone. This time I'm not feeling any eyestrain, I have a strong headache after using the phone. At times it gets quite bad and also affects my daily life activities (mainly studying because I'm a student).

I fear that this may be the long term effect of using the phone despite experiencing headache and eyestrain initially when I started using the phone.

I don't have much knowledge about this stuff so if someone could help me out about whats going on/why this is happening that would be great. and also a possible solution to the headaches I'm experiencing as I don't want to give away this phone :(. I was wondering if there is something like a custom ROM that eliminates PWM flicker? Any help will really help me and my sore head!

Thanks!
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] carlinleos:
Well,

1. You shouldn't think that using the oneplus 3t is the reason for your headaches, and you should go to a Doctor.

2. I believe that your headaches are caused by fatigue in your vision, and if that is the case any phone or any product that has a display should affect you as well.

3. You should ask in a different forum to post this type of questions, for example yahoo questions.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] -Ric-:
You're right on the first two but I disagree with this last suggestion.

Don't ask for advice online at all, go and see your doctor ASAP. When it comes to health-related stuff, it's always better to be cautious.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] sammy21271:
I never experienced this with any of the previous phones Ive used, (iPhone 5c and 6s) so I know there's nothing wrong with my vision.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] AndyPhoenix9879:
I think the flickering issue occurs only at around 10% and below brightness. Can't remember but I think it's that. Try brightening up the brightness a bit maybe, but still though I'd also recommend checking with your doctor as an extra precaution
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] redpoint73:
That is not a lot of data points, so I wouldn't make that assumption. You can easily be looking at a red herring, placebo effect or just plain coincidence. Something can easily have changed with your vision or other health over time, without you noticing. And I don't know how old you are, but vision starts to nosedive at a certain age, with things like astigmatism drastically affecting your vision in ways you may not easily notice.

I agree with the above points, things like vision (or even your brain) are not to be taken lightly. You should have your eyes (and general health) examined on a yearly basis anyway, so it's well worth doing.

You also haven't mentioned how much time you've spent looking at your phone. The amount of blue light emitted from these devices can lead to a lot of eye fatigue. I know when I get a new phone, I tend to play with it a lot. So the cause may just be the amount of screen time, rather than the specific phone itself.

[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] joshw0000:
Hey guys, I recently took the update to the latest (and last) Android O beta and I've noticed that now I have to unlock my phone twice everytime to get into it. I use double tap to unlock my phone. On 7.1.2, I could double tap, then immediately swipe to be in the phone. Now when I double tap it just displays the time. I have to double tap again, then swipe to unlock it.

I feel like this is something simple that I'm missing in the settings to disable. I've played with the Display settings and haven't been able to figure it out.

Anybody know what I'm missing?
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] scottjb:
I use the finger print reader to unlock but mine worked as expected. Double-tap turned on the screen and my finger unlocked it. Now, it took three double-taps to wake the phone but that's a different conversation. [emoji52]
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] Nick80835:
The 2 double taps being required is normal behavior sadly. I've seen no option to change this either. It's most likely to prevent accidental wakeups and so you don't fully wake your screen unintentionally when just looking at a notification to save power. :silly:
