Hi.

Firstly thanks for your work.

I'm on B01 from NFound with NFound 3.2.0-8 (or sth like that) and have no problem. Tried your B12 TWRP and there is no internal storage. I saw this issue on official TWRP
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Oki:
Do you mean the whole data and internal storage, or just the internal storage?
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] runninghamster:
Using MiFlash, I tried to flash two of my FACTORY backups, one of Havoc and one of Benzo. Both times the zip flashed correctly, with no errors, but when going to turn on the device it will not boot. Stuck in EDL mode. Only way to recover was to flash stock EDL and then manually flash files to get back to Benzo.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Orasion:
Something strange happened to my phone

Couple days ago, I flashed B15 beta but forgot to replace the stock recovery so I have to take the long route to dismantle it and short the test point

After that unbrick, I restored B12 bootstack with AEX via EDL (with official TWRP 3.2.2.0), but the strange thing is when I flash this recovery I can't go to recovery, just blinking red LED then power off

Before the incident, I use v1 of this recovery with no problem

Any way I can help to troubleshoot this [MENTION=319057]Oki[/MENTION] ?

[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] jrotaetxe:
Hello, Oki

Surprised this have not been questioned already..., and please, have mercy if it is a dumb question

Is your bootstack zip file TWRP flashable or only with MiFlash?

MiFlash is the known Xiaomi tool?

To use that tool, you need to enter in an special mode. I do not know if it is Fastboot or EDL. Have not clear concepts, but an screen capture (or photo) of an axon in that mode could clarify if it is the right one. Or may be is a completelly black screen....

Is the EDL/Fastboot mode easily recognisable?

Regards and thank you
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Oki:
The phone will look like it is off. The only way to know whether your Axon 7 is in EDL mode when MiFlash detects it. In the Windows Device manager it will be detected under Ports section as Qualcomm 9008 Device.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Oki:
Working on that.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] jrotaetxe:
Hi again, Oki

Sorry if I appear to be insistent but....

Is your bootstack zip file TWRP flashable or only with MiFlash?

Thank you
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] runninghamster:
Oki mentioned before that flashing with MiFlash is recommended, as using TWRP can lead to potential errors. Use MiFlash.

[MENTION=319057]Oki[/MENTION] after flashing my backup that i made, the phone doesn't want to boot out of edl mode. I tried holding the power button and holding power+vol up.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Oki:
Sorry to hear that. Did you have corruption in your backup? What backup option did you use? I will try to duplicate it. I have tested all the configurations and seems that some devices have some problems flashing some partitions due to some kind of protection under TWRP, but that limitation doesn't exists when using the firehose flashing method using the EDL mode.

Maybe you can provide me with the backup you were trying to restore to see what could have happened. Anyway, your device is not bricked since you can just flash any other EDL module such as this or any other.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] runninghamster:
yeah I figured as much, I was flashing the zip with miflash. flash had no errors, but phone wouldn't boot. I can provide the file I was flashing, it was

nfound b12, your twrp, project treble 1.1, latest havoc pie gsi image, micro gapps and schwifty with magisk. Complete clean flash with no personal data except my added Google account.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Oki:
Don't worry, the frp partition is encrypted and I can't get your account from it. I will have to wipe it to test it in my unit. By the way, what region is your Axon 7 (US, EU, CN)?
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] runninghamster:
My axon is A2017G so EU version.

btw just realised whilst trying to upload the file that my upload speed is so slow that it would take at least 2 hours to upload the 1.1 gb file.

:(

2.0 mbps on upload at speedtest.net
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Oki:
I am heading to bed now, so I won't be able to see it in a few hours.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] RedWave31:
Unfortunately, that doesnt work at all on an A2017G with Lineage 16 (18 September) installed.

Can I use it to reduce system partition size? It has 3.4GB free that are completely wasted.

Thanks for your TWRP version btw !!
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] runninghamster:
I can second this, for me tapping expand os does nothing whatsoever
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Oki:
It does, but there is no feedback on the screen. You can see the difference if you mount /system and /vendor and type df in the terminal. Do it just after installing the ROM and after pressing that button. It is useful after flashing some GSI that leave little space for installing Gapps or systemize apps.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] runninghamster:
Ah I see. Thanks for the info. Also check PM for link to the backup file. Feel free to test whenever you want, as I'm currently on LineageOS 15, taking a break from flashing broken ROMs and trying the smooth experience. :)
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Oki:
I haven't forgot it. I am on a trip right now and I have limited time. I have some improvements for Labs Mod 1.4, like including some kind of on screen data for the Expand OS function.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] runninghamster:
Okay, no worries. Always love an update to any kind of software I'm using.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] tprfd:
Hi Oki,

Regarding encryption, if we install labs mod non encryption version via instructions on the LineageOS 15.1 thread and then need to encrypt, can we encrypt and then flash the alternative TWRP with encryption support afterwards?
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Liquid5n0w:
I am going from 15.1 unofficial (non-tremble) and I'm using the nfounds TWRP 3.2.1-8 as well. Is the best plan to just wipe my device completely and restart with your recovery and 15.1 official? Will that work? I do want to go to the 16.0 unofficial as well, would your recovery work with that too?

Thank you for making this!
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Oki:
Your best option would be to use the alternative/safe installation instructions for the LOS15.1. after that you can safely install updated LOS15.1 ROMS or LOS16 with the provided bootstack and recovery. It is the best combination you can get. Look for it in the LOS15.1 thread.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] anildzs:
Phone does not come out of EDL

Hi Oki, I also had the same problem. I had made a full EDL backup using TWRP Labs. The flashing with MIFLASH was successful. But phone would not come out of EDL mode. Had to go back to your B12 AEX flash.

I think there is something going on with the EDL backup made.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Rayvis:
As others have mentioned, there seems to be an issue with the EDL backup process. Last weekend, I tried multiple times and different configurations of backup and was never able to properly restore them.

I took an EDL backup before I started tinkering, and was unable to restore that backup. If I try via TWRP, it gets hung up on the xbl restore. If I try to flash the EDL with MiFlash, it appears successful but will not leave EDL mode afterward and I have to start fresh.

I then tested creating an EDL backup right after getting LOS, GAPPS, and Magisk installed, and experienced the same issue with restoring. I can provide multiple backup files for you if you need them.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] arirr:
Neither version seems to support encryption under F2FS. Is there any way to do this?
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] zombie.king:
I think something is wrong with F2FS support in general here. After wiping cache partition which was f2fs one, android couldn't boot. Going to recovery I noticed that the cache partition became Cache (C uppercase). Formatting again as ext4 fixed that (with warning no such partition or similar). Installing nfound version and formatting cache to f2fs worked without issues.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] AnonVendetta:
You cannot boot into this recovery if you are using the B32 bootstack. I tried the Labs version that doesn't support encryption, because I never encrypt my phones. Explanation?
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] piet8stevens:
Bootstack and recovery are linked. So this twrp only works with an Oreo bootstack.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] AnonVendetta:
As much as I would like to upgrade to Oreo, I find that Nougat is more stable. Perhaps I will jump ship to a Treble Pie ROM soon, but only after Xposed supports Pie. And Pie isn't very stable.

[MENTION=319057]Oki[/MENTION]: Would be nice to see a version of this recovery that works with N bootstacks. For now I'll stick with official TWRP.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] WhiteAss:
Newbie question

What is exactly meant with "Device encryption enabled"? Is it when a password is asked to access "/data" in twrp? (how should I know this password)

Or can I check it elsewhere?
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Predatorhaze:
[MENTION=319057]Oki[/MENTION] can you tell more about deep wipe? I did the deep wipe on 60% (for clean flash) and now i face major battery calibration issues,even after go stock and clean flash.Can you recommend something?

TWRP_3.2.3-0L_v1.3-Axon7-Labs_Mod.img

and

TWRP_3.2.3-0L_v1.3.B12-Axon7-Labs_Mod.img

Neither one seems to be able to decrypt internal storage.

In fact, the majority of the Lab scripts do not seem to function what so ever.

Anyone else having this issue?
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Infy_AsiX:
I can't find any zips or okilabs folder, am I missing something? I'm interested in EDL backup/restoring on older B32 ROMs but can't with this recovery.

[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Jeremy-X:
I have exactly the same, I can encrypt, but it not decrypt afterward. And the Oki Labs scripts are doing nothing.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] FifthAxiom:
Damn me too. 50 percent loss of battery capacity . In the morning my phone is turned off. Sometimes 50 percent left or nothing at all. Weird. Did a complete restore (all partitions) and problem still exists. Also did a recalibration.

[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Predatorhaze:
I've had the same problem,sorry man.Can't really help because the problem is unknown,I fixed it once but their is no procedure.A battery replace will not fix it so I would avoid that for now.

What ROM did you flashed and bootstack?Which axon version?

Can you flash twrp from nfound,treble version,and flash party zip for vendor?If it says vendor is still ther,don't delete it,cancel the operation.Go back to twrp and wipe all partitions,also vendor!Reboot in twrp and make sure all partitions are wiped and are ext4, if this is not the case format data.Then flash the party zip,delete vendor partition,reboot twrp.Flash party zip again to make sure its gone.

Reboot twrp again and try to mount vendor,if it mounts,delete again with party zip,if it doesn't mount the vendor partition will be probably gone.(reboot twrp if you used party zip)

Now you should go flash stock nougat ROM or a twrp for nougat and custom nougat ROM with the according bootstack (I used los14 bootstack and nuclearom)
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] FifthAxiom:
Used the international Ota oreo update. After that I backed up all partitions. Then installed the recovery (unlocked the bootloader months ago). Did not install a seperate boot stack. I will try an edl restore tomorrow (my own backup and maybe the Ota provided here by sideloading) which has stock recovery. Right now I am not sure I did a complete edl restore after the problem occurred. Busy having two kids so my memory is a bit out of sync. Keep you informed in the coming week. Thank you for your quick response.

Hello,

First, thanks a lot for this useful tool :)

Trying to move to Pie Rom with this helpful TWRP, unfortunately I am unable to get it working/accessible.

Currently under Official TWRP v3.2.3-0 and tried to flash v3.2.3-0L with TWRP itself or Axon7Toolkit. In both manner, Seems to be OK but when restarting in Recovery Mode, LED blinks two times and phone stops, nothing, it doesn't go further. Combo doesn't give access to Recovery, even with adb command: unreachable. Nevertheless, System boot still works, boots correctly to LOS14.1.

I am stuck at this point, since it's mandatory to get this step successful to create Vendor partition, etc... I am not encrypted.

Auto-replying to my post: Used EDLTool and OKI Labs EDL to Flash successfully :)

Hi All,

I am interested in any ROM, preferably based on LOS, that has no GAPPS pre-installed?

Is there any such? nougat, oreo, and whatever P is... doesn't matter.

A follow-up question for the more technically advanced than I: why is this such a problem for PH1? I believe the PIXEL phones also have A/B partitions, and are supported by LOS

Thanks!
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] rignfool:
The number of developers fixing issues on the pixel vs this phone is astounding...
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] lleo_:
I do recognize that, but given similarities between devices, would not be possible to adopt the work done by those developers. Granted that I ask this with the knowledge of a noob.

To follow up are you saying that there is no such as GAPPS-less ROM for PH1?
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] rignfool:
There are... But they come and go as far as updates and such...

The demand is for Google... And moar features without losing Google...

Now... What you can do/try is wander over to the Project Trebble area... I would assume that you will find a plethora of development...

You're gonna be wading in some unknown territory... And it'll be a mystery as to what works... And whether it's fixable... Good luck

EDIT: or... You can magisk yourself... And try NanoMod... I think that disables a ton of Google stuff and puts FOSS stuff in it's place...
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] lleo_:
Sir! Thank You for your post. At first I thought it was a joke, but I learned something today. The concept and related work of project Treble bypassed me. I have already a GApps-less LOS on my Ph1. Again thanks!
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] ultrasuper:
Don't know if this applies, but lots of ppl are successfully running GSIs on the Essential.

Maybe some of them are GAPP-less?
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] DoR3M3:
[MENTION=5514752]lleo_[/MENTION] another thing you can always do, is run Stock Android and Debloat it and run it Gapp Free, just like any custom rom...

As they say YMMV (Your Mileage May Vary), and I found Stock Oreo to be more stable on the Essential, so I debloated it, made it Deodex and patched for Signature Spoofing and of course Gapp Free. I still have the Gboard, Contacts, Messeges, and Phone, but these can be removed and replaced easily, any and everything Google can be taken out.

See the screen shot...
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] arjunv:
Hey can you explain how to debloat, is there a script for it. How do you patch it and deodex it.

Stoked to see two things here...1.) the answer to the question I was searching for about running my Essential with no gapps...and 2.) your choice in file explorers! :D
[General Questions and Answers] Bloodgod:
1. ISOs / Images of PlayStation Games are copies of the game's CD content that are transferred into a file that is readable by the emulator.

As you are only allowed to make a security copy of games you own, sharing them is illegal. However, there are also Demos, TechDemos and Freeware Games (Homebrew) for the PlayStation that we can share. You can download them HERE.

2. To create these ISOs, you have to use a CD-Burning software that can create images. Don't get confused by the name "ISO", it's just a general term used for all images (.iso, .img, .bin etc.).

Since those games usually are very big (around 600 MB) and your storage card may not be that large, there are methods to lower the image's size: this site here should help with that problem

as for the actual games and bios i can't supply for various reasons, i can throw a hint your way though..try your favorite torrent site, rapidshare, megaupload etc.

Note: I have only tested this on my AT&T Tilt i don't know if it works on non touch screen devices. Oh and if you screwed something up and your device is messed up i take no responsibility in what happened...... HAPPY GAMING
[General Questions and Answers] -IK-:
Sorry to be a Killjoy, but if my P3600 has speed issues playing some basic Genesis games, I'm doubtful of its capabilities in Emulating a PlayStation.

Saying that, the pocket devices are slowly getting more powerful and when we finally get widespread use of 3D acceleration, then things will really get interesting.

That reminds me though...I remember being impressed with the graphics capabilities of my old SE P800 when V-Rally was released for it.....It looked almost like the PS version, and the rendering was completely achieved through software AFAIK.

Am I underestimating the 3D capabilities of the current gen Windows Mobile devices?
[General Questions and Answers] Bloodgod:
actually the current gen devices run stuff like this pretty well... personally i have four emulators on my tilt and they work fine, the first couple of times though the playstation emulator ran pretty slow but with a few tweaks and not running as many programs as i normally do it runs nicely.
