Is there a way to get the phone to be recognized as a Blu Vivo 5 after installation? Everything installed fine, I got the SIM card working, but when I plug my phone into my computer it recognizes it as a Condor Allure A55 Slim when it should be recognizing it as a Blu Vivo 5. I'm trying to load the Dunkin Donuts App and I think it's giving me problems because of the region it thinks my phone is in. I've tried side loading and that didn't work, the APK file gives me the same incompatablity error. I've also tried messing with my build.prop file and the phone is still not being recognized correctly.
[Blu Vivo 5] llamasking:
Modify the ROM. I'm completely fine with the incorrect recognition though
[Blu Vivo 5] admiralnick:
I don't care about the incorrect recognition either, but Ahh Needz mah Dunkin Donuts Coffeez
[Blu Vivo 5] youcefrip:

Hi, I'm trying to install this ROM on my Qmobile Z12/Gionee S6 Phone.

But i keep getting this error "updater process ended with signal 11". What's wrong?

How do i fix this error?

I have tried so many different ROMS but keep getting the same message, except on MIUI 9/10 ROMS.

I'm already running MIUI 10 ROM on this device.

Recovery: TWRP 3.0.2
[Blu Vivo 5] llamasking:
For all roms from this guy, you need to do a wipe before you can flash a new rom. I'm rather certain that is the error, but if it is not I'll need a few more lines from the log.
[Blu Vivo 5] Sebamarcos92:
hello I try to install the rom and I can not have the recovery but it throws me error 7 and does not let install in my blu live 5 I have unlocked the oem and usb debugging and nothing like install?
[Blu Vivo 5] llamasking:
I don't think the Live 5 exists so I'm gonna assume that's a typo.

The recovery is necessary. You can not install this rom without the recovery. You must also use TWRP to wipe your phone before flashing. You can of course make a backup and restore it afterwards.
[Blu Vivo 5] Sebamarcos92:
es blu vivo 5 tengo twrp instalado pero cuando kiero instalar la rom me dice datos imcompatibles y no instala, le di en limpiar cache y todo pero igual
[Blu Vivo 5] llamasking:
You need to wipe Data as well as both caches. Do not wipe the system. Doing so will soft brick your device.

If you wipe your system. the only way to come back from that is to flash a repair rom with SP Flash or flash a backup of the Android 6 update. (See: https://xdaforums.com/vivo-5/development/stock-rom-blu-vivo-5-marshmallow-update-t3940054)
[Blu Vivo 5] llamasking:
As the download link is dead and OP hasn't logged in since 2018, I have reuploaded the files to a MEGA folder and wrote up some short documentation.

I highly suggest that you make your own copies of this folder so that if in the future I delete it, someone else has a backup.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vijayfb:
Need help i am using note 2 n7100

is there any user here who uses naugat 7.1.2 based custom rom. in which magisk safetynet bypass works fine ? please give me link to that rom :) tried viperos and xenonhd even Resurrection Remix 5.8.5 but no safetynet bypass worked :(:(
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h_maharaj:
SafetyNet cannot pass using Magisk on any Nougat Rom for our device. In my testing, I've found that the problem is the kernels used do not have the necessary functionality for MagiskHide to start properly which means that the Su binary cannot be hidden. If you install Magisk and then check the Magisk log, you will find the following line: "proc_monitor: Your kernel doesn't support mount namespace". The only solution is for rom devs to backport mount namespace functionality.

If you need to pass SafetyNet, your only option at this stage is to use LineageSu + iSu.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] yiukiang:
Hi everyone,

I had the problem with my phone. It was last night I did the FACTORY RESET on my Galaxy Note 8 , and after that when I turn on I couldn't make the phone call... So i checked it and it shows me NULL IMEI ( which means I have no IMEI on my phone now )

What the hell to my phone ?? Anyone can help me ???

Best regards

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] VincentThacker:
APK of any Samsung system app refuses to install with the message "App not installed", with the exceptions of Samsung account, Samsung Galaxy Apps, Samsung Notes and Samsung Themes.

Here are some observations:

Create shortcut to .apk file and install immediately after reboot (Did not work)

Toggle "Secure Startup" in Settings and reboot (Did not work, it worked on the S8 and S7 devices)

Installing via ADB (Failed with the following error):

Failed to install app.apk: Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_BY_BUILDTYPE_BY_SECURITY_POLICY]

Changing the version code of the .apk file with APK Editor (Did not work, causes "App not installed. The package conflicts with an existing package by the same name" error, which is different from the "App not installed" error initially)

For a screenshot of the "App not installed" error, please look at this post by [MENTION=5172206]Teknick[/MENTION].

Searching this error on Google returns few useful results, so this definitely needs more attention. I highly suspect this is a Samsung security policy that is preventing the install. Is there any workaround? (except rooting, of course) I wouldn't be asking this if the Samsung apps could update themselves. Right now, every Samsung app insists that "The latest version is already installed" in the About section when there's a clearly a 2-month-later newer version available. And, no, these .apk files are NOT from the S8 Oreo beta.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] VincentThacker:
Seriously, no one?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] :
It's forbidden to bump your thread in less than 24 hours.

No one is sitting here just waiting to answer your questions.

And why open a new thread, there is already one, and you even posted in it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Teknick:
If you are going to lecture people on the forum rules, I suggest you go back and read them yourself.

I'll make it easy and highlight a section for you real quick:

2.3 Flaming / Lack of respect: XDA is about sharing and this does not involve virtual yelling (flaming) or rudeness. Flaming or posting with a lack of respect is unacceptable. Treat new members in the manner in which you would like to have been treated when you were a new member. When dealing with any member, provide them with guidance, advice and instructions when you can, showing them respect and courtesy. Never post in a demanding, argumentative, disrespectful or self-righteous manner.​

Also, if you can point out the 24 hour rule, I'd appreciate it, because the only part I found on bumping threads is this:

You can add updates to your thread (ie new features for an app., etc), BUT only update if you are posting relevant to the topic and NOT with the sole purpose of getting the thread to the top of the page (known as "bumping") otherwise it will be considered as spam.​
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] VincentThacker:
Nowhere in the forum rules does this appear. If you don't have anything that is helpful/adds to the discussion, why post this? I started this thread because I believe this issue needs more attention like I said before, as well as providing more information for others who might have this problem as well (and might be searching for answers here).
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] hinnn:
You can install some of them after you got new official update <security/policy update>,

The signature is different for different model, even same app like device maintenance, you cannot install the apk file from phone s8,s8+

For some independent app like samsung account, samsung themes, you can upgrade with installing the apk from the website you mentioned.

If you have 3rd party recovery installed, you can do your flashable file, then update via recovery, that's the way I'm doing usually.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] VincentThacker:
Hi hinnn,

Thanks for the reply! I really appreciate your info. However, I have a few clarifications:

So Samsung indeed has a security check on the system APKs now to make sure it matches the device? Is the "About" section of the system apps correct after all? I'm on the latest AQI1 firmware with August 2017 security patch, and security policy has "already been updated to the latest version". Could you clarify which update you are referring to? Lastly, what is an "independent app" that you mentioned, and which apps are "independent"? Sorry if I ask too much, I came from installing these system APKs on S7 edge, I do not know about the latest mechanisms in S8 & Note 8. :)

Edit: I tried installing the latest Air Command APK, which also failed with the same error. But as far as I know, S8 has no S-Pen so no Air Command, correct? This should be for Note 8 yet it didn't install
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] hinnn:
Actually, SAMSUNG didn't push through the security policy in that way, usually, we need update to next version like AQI2 or AQJ1, then you can install some of them, otherwise you will get the message saying signature conflict

An existing package by the same name with a conflicting signature is already installed

For "independent app", like standalone app, samsung themes, galaxy apps, samsung account which isn't running with any particular framework , not too much.

P.S. I'm not a professional guy, probably my explainable doesn't make sense, or not correct, just for your information.

Cheers
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] En Kee:
I have the exact same problem and I didn't find any solution yet. And like you I come from the S7 Edge and I used to update my apps like this. So if someone has any suggestion I take it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] VincentThacker:
Thanks for the clarifications! After some more observations, it seems that any APK released after 26 September 2017 will not install on Samsung devices running Nougat 7.1.1 (except the 4 mentioned in the first post). However, I do not get the "An existing package by the same name with a conflicting signature is already installed" error, I get "App not installed" error instead as shown by the screenshot.

However, changing the version code and re-signing the APK with APK Editor app will produce "An existing package by the same name with a conflicting signature is already installed" error that you mentioned when attempting to install (which is different from the original error)

As for the "framework" concept, could you elaborate a little further? The "Secure Startup" exploit works on all Samsung devices that were not originally on Nougat, but were later updated to Nougat 7.0. (It might work on the S8 and S8+ too, although I'm not sure about that).
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Amit.A:
[MENTION=6668933]100055[/MENTION]

No problem with this as this problem is solved temp only

for example

there are certain apps which are not stable and yes 1 or 2 are stable out of 98% unstable apps as i tried all apps and saw it was unstable and caused lots of problem

from adb

put the following command and install the apk

adb install -l -r C:\Users\anand\Desktop\soundalive.apk

[use red highlighted command line only. green highlighted line is for reference only]

the app will install but if you reboot your device the update of the apk will be lost and more over the previous app update officially done by Samsung will be wiped you have to reinstall the update from the galaxy app store again

if you dont reboot then its fine being using the app of updated one for example i needed only soundalive.apk till today.. so i update it and wont reboot my device so i enjoy the updated sound quality of it
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] VincentThacker:
Thanks for the solution, it indeed works! But why doesn't the update stay through a reboot though? And why does adding the option -l work?

Update 12/01

____

Since a couple of days we now have v 9.1.2.0. I haven't noticed any differences yet, but the wallpaper carousel is functioning again. They also implemented fixes for problems that I personally did not encounter. ...aaand the notifications are slightly improved! Some of them evene expand and allow for direct interaction. Breathtaking development.

Get it while it's fresh on en.miui.com.

Should you not be rooted, I can recommend installing it via XiaoMiTool. I used this to flash the last MIUI 8 Global Stable, and then got 9.1.1.0 and now 9.1.2.0 via OTA. I've read that for some people here fast charging isn't working on th 9-er Firmwares. I have had no problem with that at all. Maybe it's because you guys are rooted, or because system wasn't flashed properly? I don't know, but I feel with you...

____

Update 11/16

____

The MIUI9 release has since been officially announced. This XDA article sheds some light on the release. However, as of today, the ROM is still not available for download on en.miui.com.

If you don't feel like waiting for OTA hitting you, shadowxaero has provided a link to download 9.1.1.0 (NDEMIEI) in post #7.

To enable VOLTE in presumably every MIUI realease, KevinLuong has shared a great link to an explanation including an easy fix in post #2.

Update 11/17

The Firmware is officially available on en.miui.com now. Should you not be rooted, consider installing it via XiaoMiTool, which will let you chose and download the Firmware within the programs flashing dialogue (give that man a beer).

_____initial post_____

..but there is no mention of it anywhere (yet). Why is that?

It's Version 9.1.1.0 (NDEMIEI). Got it OTA on Friday night, but it isn't even yet listed on the official site. Whats up with that?

Everything seems to run great, except that VOLTE can not be activated, which I find a little weird for a stable release. Oh, and notfications are still not up to scratch in MIUI 9, which is the single most annoying thing about MIUI. :(

Anyone else on this ROM? Maybe with tips, tricks, htoughts or insights?

.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] KevinLuong:
It's a nightly preview pushed to some users.

http://en.miui.com/thread-951467-1-1.html explains the VoLTE thing, the dialler code enabled it for me.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] cartonneexpress:
Thanks a lot! That explains, and easily fixes it!

Hmm. Why would they do that? I'm not even participating in the user feedback program (at least not willingly ;) ). Usually the nightlys they push out clearly state that they are nightlys, don't they? I saw this with the Mi 6 when it got v 9.0.1.0. In this case on Mix 2 the ROM clearly states "stable" though.

Well, I don't want to complain. :o I feel special now. :victory:
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Andy4Shurr:
What ROM where you on before, MIUI 8 Global Stable?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] cartonneexpress:
Yes, I had Global Stable (v8.5.1.0).
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
It's a global stable beta (stable beta = what exactly??) according to the miui forums. There was an announcement about it. I put a link to the download in the reverse engineering thread.

I haven't actually tried it yet but I would be interested to know if it passes safetynet, I guess.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] shadowxaero:
http://bigota.d.miui.com/V9.1.1.0.NDEMIEI/miui_MIMIX2Global_V9.1.1.0.NDEMIEI_232bee13eb_7.1.zip

A user provided that link on the MIUI forums. I haven't flashed it yet and I believe you need to be on the MIUI8 Stable ROM in order to flash this.

Lol whoops, missed this post lol. A user on MIUI also said it passed safety net yesterday.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
You can flash it with fastboot, but you have to convert the system to a system.img in order to do so.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] shadowxaero:
Lol how does one do that?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
I used sdat2img.py

https://github.com/xpirt/sdat2img

Use that to make a system.img, flash that with fastboot.

Then flash all of the other partitions with fastboot from the unpacked zip, following the pattern of the Xiaomi fastboot updates so you know which thing needs to be flashed to what.

Kind of difficult to explain and probably not worth putting together a whole tutorial, but that's how you do it.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] subashchandran:
this build passes safetynet with Magisk 14. I also installed this over Epic rom and not over v8 stable.. works fine anyways. I did format userdata and cache from fastboot before i flashed.

Full ROM Pack Version: V9.1.1.0.NDEMIEI is available now : http://en.miui.com/download-334.html#491

whats the best way to upgrade? I am on MIMIX2Global_7.11.6 beta?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] cartonneexpress:
This will most likely not work coming from the developer ROM, but try the regular manual update method:

Download the ROM and copy it to your device. Then go to settings > About Phone > System Update and chose your update package from the extended menu (three dots, top right).

Should the regular method not work, and should your device not be unlocked/rooted, then simply use the XiaoMiTool. If you follow the instructions this program works really really well, so consider donating that guy a beer or two.

phone is unlocked... i cant live without a native adblocker ^^

Thanks...and it seems to work with the updater app :) it´s in German but it says: all data will be deleted and it make a revert to global stable.

i´ve canceled that, i am not sure whats better, stay on beta and get weekly updates if i want or choose global. it s a hard decission :D

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] cartonneexpress:
Battery life is pretty much the same as on MIUI 8 for me. Nothing to complain about.

On a sidenote: The battery montor in settings has been "improved" in MIUI 9 ...it was much better in MIUI 8.

I've been 9.1.1.0 for a week now, and had no problems whatsoever. Quickcharge is working as well. If your beta works fine in every aspect you need it to, you might as well stay on it, since stable does not offer anything new I guess.

I'm on this MIUI 9 Global Stable 9.1.1.0 is it normal that in Settings - Region there is only "China" available ?

Is that the reason to have the "Themes" app in chinese ?

And a second question, there is a bunch of chinese apps, is it safe to uninstall them ?

Thanks
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] KevinLuong:
It's normal when you flash using the fastboot/locked bootloader method - doesn't seem to cause any issues for me.

The themes app is a bug AFAIK

There shouldn't be too many Chinese apps on the global ROM, safe to uninstall though.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] be_on_edge:
Hey Kevin, thanks for the answer. In what way should I flash to get all the regions ? Even if it doesn't cause any issue I am a bit of a maniac for such things.

Does anyone know for sure whether or not quick charge is working on this rom? I installed this rom yesterday and plugged my phone in, but I can't tell if it's quick charging. It says quick charging on the lockscreen, but I can no longer verify the amperage it's charging at. The rom that came with the phone is the only one that had that feature. Every beta and global I've tried since then does not show the charging current on the lockscreen, which is a shame because it's one incredibly sweet feature.
