Thank you, I will try.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] tpznk:
So this .zip basically does what a .kdz upgrade would do without resetting recovery, boot, reencrypting the /data partition and enabling rootchecker? If this is so then all praise to you sir!

Has anyone tried to upgrade from nougat the dirty way?
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ChazzMatt:
Right. [MENTION=3642089]westwood24[/MENTION] has done this for us the last couple of updates for both H930 and US998.

Working good, thanx.

I also tried rooting with magisk 16.7 - had problem with networks. So I flashed ROM again and rooted with magisk 16.0 - all good.

hello

thanks for the rom, however I'm encountering a problem

I have a v30+ (H930DS firmware so far)

unlocked bootloader and twrp installed, I'm flashing the rom in TWRP that says it succeeded

then it's rebooting normally and in software it reads V20d-GLOBAL-COM

is that correct?

(I though it would be 21A??)
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] clouds5:

[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] yvliew:
I just received my phone today and it came with unlocked bootloader and Russian global rom V9.5.14.0.OEARUFA.

Question is, can I download the updater ZIP file of Global Rom V9.5.13.0.OEAMIFA and use the updater app to flash instead of using Fastbook/Miflash Tools. Is this a safe way? Will it work? Thanks in advance!

Note : It is China Mi8 device.

The latest recovery-TWRP-3.2.3-0806 will do the trick.

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=5862345805528068853

Flashing with twrp is probably the safest way as mi flash you can accidentally re-lock your bootloader.

Since the OP phone is china mi8. It's compatible with all the rom in this forum (EU, global, etc) with unlock bootloader of course.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] yvliew:
I do not wish to change my recovery to twrp. So it's the only way is to use miflash tools? No direct zip flash global from from updater app from phone ?
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] Superbia:
To my knowledge you can't change channel with updater app. With channel I mean Global stable, Global developer, Chinese stable, Chinese developer etc etc.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] yvliew:
So global and global Russia can be used with updater app ? Is that correct?

But if can't, it will only show error and nothing will happen to y device right?
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] ShafiX94:
Ok i already successful install twrp and magisk but there one question when my device is booting its said unlocked but when i go to the developer setting its said device still locked? So does this gonna have effect?
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] yvliew:
Magisk is probably tricking the firmware to see the bootloader is locked. For purposes of online banking and stuff? I believe bootloader is still actually unlocked.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] lastlife:
It blew my mind when I (being an IS/IT guy and a self proclaimed master of google search) I couldn't find ANYTHING about trying things to combine the use of both a head unit (3188 JY 1024 with a 1GB chip on the way :] ) and an old tab3 10.1 for a number of things. I like the idea of using the tablet for apps that are a little more resource intensive, like hangouts etc. or the big 10.1 as a full screen keyboard for the HU whatever... but NOTHING. Oh sure 9billon+ results for how to use a tablet for a head unit. anyways..... anyone ever tried this? Anyone have and stories, advice or caution for me?

just curious :)

One bug I found on LOS 14.1, please look at topic from LOS 14.1, and you will see.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] wbn1:
8703F

Hotspot doesn't work. I can turn it on but my computer and phone don't see the network; if I turn it on-off-on it causes the tablet to crash into a soft restart. It will then show 'Error'. There is no 5GHZ option when creating a hotspot. I posted this in the other thread aswell.

System/Buttons/Show arrow keys while typing doesn't work in landscape mode. They will appear in the middle of the navigation bar on top of the circle and will make the nav bar unusable.

I don't know if this is a feature, but in landscape mode if I swipe from the right end of the screen towards the center the status bar drops down.

System boots normally but gapps crashes constantly. Any gapps working? Or any information about how to install correctly gapps. Thanks. :confused:

**Update**

I just Wipe Data and then sign boot again. Then I configure my device and Now is Working with the Whole Google Apps and is now Android 8.1.0. Thanks for the developer for the Rom
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] tomas.vala:
Thanks a lot for your work on this ROM!

I've had exactly same experience with gapps crashing (MindTheGapps-8.1.0-arm64-20180223_195845.zip) as maikalex96 above. Wipe fixed the problem. Not feeling adventurous enough to try Open gapps yet.

good:

usual stuff works

WiFi 5GHz works

WiDi / Miracast, Chromecast works

Apk installations/updates are lightning fast compared to 6.0.1 stock

not so good:

bluetooth (albeit disabled) drains battery like crazy in standby - either that or andriod battery stats are not working right (WLAN, display items are not even listed)

no Dolby Atmos in LOS

some useful features removed in Oreo (google seem to be dumbing the system down) - no more WiFi band option (2.4/5), no more WiFi in standby option (on, off, charger on)

not a fan of some Oreo or LOS aesthetics

sound is not routed back to speakers after disconnecting headphones (not always)

not sure about performance, stock 6.0.1 might be a tad more responsive (touch, scrolling)

untested:

phone, lte data

sd card

That's on tb8703x.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] lu99ke:
here it is..

*** Update****

So I just realised I hadn't updated TWRP to the new boot-signed version.

It won't let me do flash that via fastboot as it says " FAILED (remote: Partition flashing is not allowed " - I assume this is because my bootloader is not unlocked.

I did try using 'fasboot oem unlock" but that does not work.

I tried to use QFIL to flash the updated TWRP but it won't recognise the device on any port as obviously it is not going into stock recovery when - it is going into TWRP...

Any other ideas?

Any help is most appreciated - many thanks in advance.

:)

Thanks to WBN1 as below, all sorted and installed - many thanks!

Will let you know how it goes!

Many thanks again for all your hard work!

---------- Post added at 06:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:05 PM ----------

There is a link in first post how to install TWRP recovery. You should try this first. It is a bit tricky installing windows drivers and successfully connecting the tablet and getting adb work. But if you get TWRP installed the rest ist quite easy. If you fail with that, IMO you will not brick your device, you just do not get it installed ;)

Good luck! :good:

Obtained 3g Access on TB-8703R

Hi guys,

first of all, I want to thank thank for the ROM and the method to install the Recovery. I bought the tablet 1 week ago, because of its dimensions and its performance. The first I did after checking it works (and I forgot to check if RIL is working correctly :D) i flashed TWRP via method described in OP. Then I installed LOS 15.1. All went good. But I wondered why I'm only able to access 2G (EDGE) network here in GERMANY. I used a Vodafone.de Sim Card that is able to access 4G with my Asus Nexus 7 (that should be replaced by the Lenovo). So I red a lot of threads and posts here and on 4pda.ru. There was a lot of information like flashing different parts with Qualcomm QFIL tool (like Recovery).

I tried a lot of these things and I'm quite happy to to have my tablet bricked.

But I finally found a solution. I combined the methods to use the QFIL software with the Baseband I found in this suspicious archive that should convert a TB-8703R into a TB-8703N or something like this. I put the NON-HLOS.bin and some misc files from this package into the package of the TWRP flashing tools and changed the rawprogram0.xml to match my files.

I put the tablet into QFIL mode by turning it off and holding Volume UP key when putting in the USB connector and flashed something that I would call Baseband or what else like TWRP. I rebootet and had not much hope. But after entering the SIM pin I've got at least Connection to H+, which means 3G I think. I'm not sure if I can get a 4G connection at home, but I'm quite happy to have obtained at least 3G.

I attached You the zip File. containing the stuff I flashed. (PS: I'm not responsible for ... You know). I do not know if dual sim is working or not.

I could not attach the NON-HLOS.bin into the ZIP file. because this would exceed the xda attachment limit so linked to the rar file thats containing it.

I'm sorry for this: 8703N_ver36_CN.rar

Copy NON-HLOS.bin from this archive into the unzipped attachment and run QFIL

Feel free to ask any questions.

[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] zeromega:
I updated an existent system (Magisk 18.1 was already installad): simply wipe cache\dalvik cache, flash rom, sign boot and reboot.

When I installed Magisk, that's what I did:

- flash rom, gapps, sign boot

- reboot

- after first boot, i went back in recovery and flashed Magisk-v18.1.zip, sign boot and reboot

You can achieve root on Lineage OS also flashing the su addon.

Error: 7

I've gotten TWRP 3.1.1-080 installed for the Lenovo TB-8703F.

I've wiped the data, rebooted into recovery and installed SU.

When I attempt to install the LineageOS 15.1 I can "error 7", which I don't really know why.

Unforunately I don't have an OS to back into at this point. All files are on my SD card though.

If it helps, here's a snip from the recovery.log
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Morph26:
Suffice to say, I'm in quite the mess now. Upgrading my 'Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1' tablet was a breeze. This has been much more difficult.

At the current time, I have TWRP 3.1.1 installed...... and nothing else. At some point in my frustration I ran a wipe and wiped out everything. So the only thing on the device is TWRP. I was able to get a "recovery TWRP 3.2.1 installed. So if I go into the power+up way I end up with TWRP 3.1.1. And if I let it boot on it's own it boots into TWRP3.2.1

As previously mentioned I have LineageOS, but I just can't seem to get it to install. Either the SYSTEM partition won't mount or appears to be unaccessable. Or I think the ZIP file doesn't really believe that I have a TB-8703F. My only guess here is that when I received this (long ago) that everything came in Chinese.... but the device was in English. So perhaps the original ROM was in Chinese and the new ZIP is looking for something else?

I've been looking for a old/original ROM that I can install with QFIL. But at the moment even that keeps erroring out saying that "Sahara Fails".

I still want to get this device up to Oreo8.1, but it looks like I could really use some help here. I'm trying too many different things and too many different builds that I'm not sure what direction I should be taking at this point.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Morph26:
well, i'm making some progress. i followed the instructions here to return my device back to stock

https://xdaforums.com/android/development/lenovo-p8-tb-8703f-wifi-how-to-flash-t3720621

oddly, it took 3x before it appeared to work. but it has worked. my biggest issue is that i can't get the tablet to boot in the OS.

TWRP is no longer there with the re-image. but i can boot to the power+up options. but system wont mount and i cant restet the device , again because system wont mount.

how can i get system to mount? re-try twrp?
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Morph26:
Ok, slowly making progress.

(1) Install TWRP 3.1.1 via QFIL

(2) Using TWRP --> Wipe --> Advanced Wipe I was able to properly format the system drive

(3) Install LinageOS 14.1

(4) Install OPen Gapps 7.1

(5) Within TWRP root device (or it'll do this weird flashing during boot attempts)

(6) Reboot into Restore

(7) Install the new TWRP 3.2.1 image to BOOT (found at beginning of this thread)

(8) Reboot into Restore

(9) Install LinageOS 15.1 (this one took some time. OK a lot of time. Seemed hung at patching image unconditionally)

(10) Install Open Gapps 8.1

(11) Ensure device is rooted.

(12) Reboot to System

From what I've been reading this is more of a multi-upgrade path. Not a straight shot. So stopping by ver14 first to check it out. But you can easily skip those steps 3-5.

I'll also point out that all the files I needed, I placed onto a MicroSD.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Catscratch:
Download latest stable magisk (should be 18.1) and manager.

Boot into recovery. Flash magisk, sign boot and reboot into rom. Install magisk manager apk if not already happened. Start it and check root.
