[LG V20 Questions & Answers] runningnak3d:
Don't suppose you could host that someplace else? It has failed several times, and finally the dl that is going now will take about 20 hours.

-- Brian
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] kish9046:
it was actually uploaded by someone else.... just shared here so that it would help you guys...
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] runningnak3d:
Well, sometime tomorrow it should be done. It is the OTA update.zip, so it will require quite a bit of tweaking to get it into a TWRP flashable state, but if a KDZ hasn't be acquired by then, at least it will allow us to upgrade.

Neither of my two H918s have been offered the OTA update yet .. I must be in the LAST batch :(

-- Brian
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] BROKEN1981:
I had it but used FlashFire to delete it. I could not figure out where the ota was located.

Edit, seems my device still has it, wants me to reboot to install it. So now I have to keep my device @ 30% so it won't install. If you can tell me where it's located, I can host it.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] dudeawsome:
okay same here no oreo on lg bridge but since it is still ARB 1 I am going to stock 10u and taking the OTA update and then dump the partitions
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] BROKEN1981:
That seems like a lot of effort. Can't I just host the OTA?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] dudeawsome:
Well the issue is I am rooted on super and need to to go to full stock to take ota. Than again the ota zip would need some work done of it to turn to flashable with the kdz it's less work.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] BROKEN1981:
So just to be clear, when you take the OTA, that's how you make a KDZ?

Edit

Is there any other method?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] dudeawsome:
No what it is is you can extract all the partitions. Like if you extracted a kdz file. The ota setup different from a kdz.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] BROKEN1981:
Ahhh ok. I just wanted to figure out if there is anything I can do to help.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] dudeawsome:
Check LG bridge if it shows the update. if it does hit me or [MENTION=3167089]runningnak3d[/MENTION] up asap
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] runningnak3d:
If the update is available, taking the OTA, and dumping the partitions is the way to go. The OTA update.zip can only be used to upgrade, can't use it as a base for ROMs since the partitions are BSDIFFs.

-- Brian
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] BROKEN1981:
I just got in the house. Let me fire up the PC and install LG bridge

Nope, not seeing it.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] bountyman334:
i tried it last night and got nothing.. Im just going to upgrade via ota and see if i can dump the needed files
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Alibaba0101:
Just tried lg bridge right now and its still pulling 10u
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] bountyman334:

[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] newbie_or_not_newbie:
Hi

Since PIE roms for santoni are available, some people, including me, can't root their santoni.

I don't know why.

Flash looks ok in recovery, but after reboot, Magisk Manager says that Magisk isn't installed.

I tried every solution found in forums here, but everytime, same result : "magisk isn't installed"...

So sad !

Could you guys (and girls) centralize here your solutions, step by step, from flash the rom to root it...

It would be so nice for helping desperate people... :)
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] onestoploser:
I also tried SuperSU and am having the same problem. I've tried Magisk 17.1, 17.2 and the Canary build along with the newest SuperSU and the result is always the same. Flashes fine but Magisk Manager and SuperSU apps can't find root.

The weird thing is that Enpass always tells me that my device is rooted and that it's a security risk even though Magisk Manager can't find root.

Also, I'm positive Magisk is patching the ramdisk. The Uninstaller always finds a Magisk-patched image. I'm assuming something has to be happening during boot that's cancelling root.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] newbie_or_not_newbie:
Two things I don't understand :

- why some people, with same configuration, don't have root problem ?

- why, with same recovery, same flash method, root works with nougat/oreo rom, and doesn't work with pie...?

Just like that : do you think problem could come from the sd card ?

I'm using à 128 gb samsung sd-card. Maybe I should format it before trying again root ?

I'm not sure it's the problem, since I can flash all roms, but I could try...

Or flash Magisk from internal storage ?

Really desperate... :)
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] Lemmy554:
Hi,

I´m in the same situation like you.

Yesterday I made a new experience of that without solution:

- Backuped all

- Uninstalled magisk at twrp

- Installed santoni_twrp_silent 27_treble (recommended from dev to install havoc)

- Rebooted

- Formated data with factory reset

- Wiped vendor, cache, data... (everything)

- Installed havoc (version 2018-09-08)

- Rebooted

- Installed magisk at twrp

- Rebooted

Same issue like before...

If I try to install magisk on magisk manager I get the following log:

Copying image to cache

Device platform: arm64-v8a

Existing zip found

Extracting files

boot_patch.sh[73]: can't create /proc/self/fd/: Is a directory

MagiskBoot v17.1(17100) (by topjohnwu)

Boot Image Modification Tool

Parsing boot image: [/data/user_de/0/com.topjohnwu.magisk/install/boot.img]

No boot image magic found!

boot_patch.sh[91]: can't create /proc/self/fd/: Is a directory

boot_patch.sh[91]: can't create /proc/self/fd/: Is a directory!

Installation failed

It seems magisk can´t install correct in cause of failing permissions to create new directories. But why?

Edit:

I think there´s an old magisk information written in device system who has to removed manually, cause magisk uninstaller is not able to do
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] newbie_or_not_newbie:
Ok, but I wiped AND format data of internal storage, same results.

Do you think I should format/wipe micro-sd too ?
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] Lemmy554:
I don´t think so. Well, if you like you can try, but I think it´s an internal problem, not an external
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] newbie_or_not_newbie:
So,

I tried another wipe of internal storage, made a format data with recovery. Then I flashed another pie rom, then magisk. And after reboot : tada !! still not working... :(
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] juliàcarax:
try with version 16.6 of magisk
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] Lemmy554:
Great news, actually my magisk works on Pixys 2.1! :D

I installed this twrp:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1RR-8WMNSQgx6QzQv5U4i-sST1Af42nrI/view

What I did:

Uninstalled old magisk, rebooted to twrp, installed magisk 17.2, rebooted, installed magisk manager 6.0 and it works.

The only thing is I didn´t rebooted until now, maybe it still works after next reboot or not...
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] onestoploser:
I just tried this and it didn't work for me either. I tried multiple clean flashes, flashed MIUI then back to Pie and flashing things in different orders last night and nothing worked. I'm tired of messing with it. I don't know how to get logs without root. I've come to the conclusion that for now I either have Pie or root. Not both. lol
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] newbie_or_not_newbie:
Me too. I stop trying every day a solution.

For the moment, no root for pie roms, so I keep staying with oreo roms (nice dot OS...) I can root.

Hope next builds of pie roms will accept to be rooted on our santoni... ;)
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] juliàcarax:
You can try this:

1 Flash Magisk v 17.2, Reinica in fast boot mode, turn it off and turn the phone on again

2 Install Magiskmanager V6 APK, do not open and restart in recovery

3 Flash Magisk v 16.6 and ready...

It worked for me... important, do not update magisk... The root is lost again

Best regards
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] newbie_or_not_newbie:
Thanks for your reply.

Did you have root trouble before trying your solution ?
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] juliàcarax:
yes, when installing Pie only. In oreo no, I tried it in havoc and pixys
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] hyperkin:
Try OrangeFox recovery for flashing magisk.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] onestoploser:
That's what I've been using. Also tried TWRP. Neither worked for me. The flash always looks good with no errors but when I boot the ROM Magisk says it's not installed.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] neijzen:
I just realize to make magisk work on pie roms i realize that i need dev miui firmware not stable miui firmware the file you need is named fw_santoni_miui_HM4XGlobal_8.9.20_3219de02e5_7.1.zip i not sure why stable firmware wont work on magisk.

i used OrangeFox Recovery Project R8.1 for recovery

1. install rom PixysOS 2.1 as normal (clean flash). Note: LineageOS 16.0 also works I have tested it

2. boot up os to make sure it that everything is working

3. then reboot back to recovery

4. flash firmware zip file named fw_santoni_miui_HM4XGlobal_8.9.20_3219de02e5_7.1

5. reboot to system making sure that it still boots in os

6. reboot back to recovery

7. flash magisk 17.2 beta i think magisk 17.1 also works

8. reboot up back to system

9. installl magisk manager apk

10. done

i just uplolad screenshot just to prove it
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] onestoploser:
Sounds like a plan! I'll try it out when I get home from work and let you know how it goes!
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] newbie_or_not_newbie:
Trying asap.

Thanks
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] Sygnomi:
This post right here works, thank you so much
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] onestoploser:
I tried this last night to no avail. I'll try it again tonight.

EDIT: So I got it to work. Installed a few modules. Reboot and... no Magisk. WTF!
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] Sygnomi:
Everytime you reboot you have to uninstall Magisk Manager and flash manager once again, and then after booting install magisk manager again, i know i know it's a hassle but so far this is how i got magisk to work
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] onestoploser:
Yeah I'm not going to do that. lol

I uninstalled Magisk completely and got Viper4Android and Ainur working without root so I'm good for now. I'm tired of messing with it. Hopefully by the time I get tired of PixysOS the whole thing will be figured out. ;)
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] Sygnomi:
The fix that I did was a last resort, I'm back on Oreo. It was so frustrating to use root
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] newbie_or_not_newbie:
Like all of those who can't root their PIE roms, I stay with Dot OS (2.4 with hotspot working). I hope future Dot OS 3.xx Pie will accept to be rooted on my precious... ;)

With Pie roms, I don't like default camera, which cannot save pictures on micro-sd. Just personal taste...
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] Sygnomi:
You dont lose Magisk after every after reboot?
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] arbajmessiali:
I have used all the Pie roms that are available on the forum. And to be true. Every rom does support Magisk. I have rooted every Rom on my phone and Magisk works just fine.

Use Magisk 17 from the official website. That would work fine.

Try using RedWolf Recovery. I've used the same.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] newbie_or_not_newbie:
All right, good for you !

If I created this topic, it's because some of us have trouble to root santoni with PIE roms... And are looking for solutions !
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] zkoz:

[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] saintjimmy1984:
1. Go to recovery ( redwolf )

2. Format data

3. Flash any Pie ROM, then gapps then flash JaguarKernel Treble https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=5862345805528061041

4. Reboot, go to system check if everything works, reboot again to recovery

5. Flash Magisk 17.2, reboot to system

6. Install MagiskManager, now you have root even after a reboot.

Tested on LOS16. Arrow, PixyOS
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] onestoploser:
Flashing Jaguar Kernel worked for me.

I flashed the kernel and rebooted PixysOS to make sure it booted ok. Rebooted Into OrangeFox and flashed Magisk 17.1. Booted system and installed Magisk Manager APK. When I opened it it was the same as it has been: Manager tells me Magisk isn't installed and I thought "*#@+!"

Rebooted into recovery again and flashed Jaguar Kernel again. Booted system and Magisk is working fine and it's survived every reboot. :D
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] newbie_or_not_newbie:
Hi

After flashing Jaguar Kernel, it works too !

Hallelujah ! ;)
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] zkoz:
Hi, guys with yaguar kernel. I guess you do not have screen problems? In my phone, the screen flickers after a while. 10mm on the right site. Of course magisk works :)
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] onestoploser:
I'm not having screen problems at all.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] matrix_guy:
That worked for me thanks mate been struggling to get root on pie roms
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] TheusKhan:
This method really works, but I was curious about if the others versions of Jaguar Kernel is working too. I tried and the answer it's NO. Only your version is working. Thanks.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] poran123:
damn same problem. Any other solution guys? other than flashing jaguar kernel?
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] newbie_or_not_newbie:
Same for me: only flash of jaguar kernel 7.5.29 allows to have a permanent root with pie roms.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] zkoz:
I have root only when I flash custom kernel named Gabriel.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] Reykawick:
please provide link to your gabriel kernel version, there are so many variants on afh.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] zkoz:
One second please.

Gabriel-AOSP-CPU8998-DTC-v9.0-[2018-07-13] this I used for a long moment.

More information about version is on the Telegram Gabriel's chat.

when it comes to magisk, each version of the gabriel's kernel allowed me to root(I used 3 of them)
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] hemrajgole37:
All guys used Batik Recovery for all magisc installed

Let's enjoyed with batik no errors on ROM and patch installment
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] obstinate_penguin:
Yep just tried it , Magisk works with Jaguar treble + Arrow OS although after installing the kernel I'm getting this weird thing where the boot animation is displayed twice with a 2 second black screen pause between them.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] Dronacharya:
Use latest magisk
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] cfhdrty:
same question，Have you solved it?
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] black_zeus:
The solution is quite simple

1-You must first install Custom Recovery (for example : BATİK RECOVERY)

2-clear all sections

3- install pie roms (for example : Arrow OS , Pixys OS)

4-install gapps (classic rom setup)

5-install lazyflasher DM-verify.zip (to remove encryption)

6-Install the Latest Version of Magisk Zip

7-Reboot phone

8-Install the Latest Version of Magisk Apk

As I explained everything I did not have any problem :)
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] prabowo96:
I use OrangeFox Recovery 9.0, Magisk 19.1 and Pixel Experience Pie. Magisk works normally on my phone.

Previously I used TWRP 3.2.3, Magisk 19.1 and Pixel Experience Oreo. With this combination, Magisk shows installed and not installed intermittenly.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] McJohn.br:
I installed several ROMs, but I never had problems with Magisk.

I use Orange Fox Vers 9.

Today I installed "Magisk-v19.3(19300).zip" and it worked perfectly.

Hello! What is your experience using MIUI 10 Beta ? How stable is it and are there any critical bugs in it? How do things go with energy consumption? How quickly do bugs fix there?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] KuldeepShivankar:
I want to know that did Xiaomi stopped beta program for miui 10? Or it's just they didn't provide weekly build today?

Because i'm on miui 10 beta and didn't recieve any uodate today. So i thought maybe since they have launched public stable buil so they have stopped beta program. Is it true?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] kbajey:
It is because their devs are on holidays. They do this annually, they made a post about this and the next beta build comes at 11/10.

MIUI Beta and Stable are largely the same for now. Both are good in battery life and performance but I found MIUI 10 a bit stuttering with animations and scrolling compared to MIUI 9.6.4. Also weirdly the graphics options in PUBG has been reduced with MIUI 10. Don't know why.. Switched to MSM-X Pie Rom for now.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] KuldeepShivankar:
How? What about Anti Roll back? I was in Resurrection remix before Miui 10 but after miui 10 i have to stick with it because of ARB policy. Also miui 10 public build has no finger print lock option. But i'm on beta build so everything seems to be working fine here for now.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] kbajey:
Arb doesn't apply to custom ROMs. You can switch between custom ROMS as usual. Just don't go back to a older version of MIUI. Fingerprint works in stable build for me.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] KuldeepShivankar:
Oh. Thanks. Then i'll definitely try Android Pie based Custom ROMS. But Camera quality becomes worse in Custom ROMS.

What's the point of having a good camera hardware if it's in no use in custom ROMS. :(
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] reza6d:
Wrong.

Most of the custom roms for whyred come with mi A2 camera pre installed,the you can add gcam onto that.there is no difference between miui and custom camera.because its not the operatint system that defines quality of the picture taken with camera,its the application you are using.

If its a better application or same,there wont be any difference.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] KuldeepShivankar:
Does portrait mode works in custom ROM camera (Mi a2 cam)?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] reza6d:
Yes my friend.

Both on miA2 cam and gcam.portrait works.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] KuldeepShivankar:
Cool. Thanks. ??
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] KuldeepShivankar:
Actually in my oneplus one and oneplus 5 custom roms doesn't give same camera quality as stock roms. That's why i'm afraid to flash custom rom on redmi note 5 pro. :/
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] aFoxWhoIsNice:
Hello all, I'm looking to purchase either of these phones, and was wondering which one to get. I understand the Poco F1 has better specs, but the main thing in which I'm interested in is, which one of them has an easier bootloader to unlock? And which one of them will have better ROM support? The RN5 Pro already has some good ROM'S available, is the same to be expected for the PocoF1? The RN5 unlocking process is long drawn, does the same hold true for Poco?

Thanks!
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] karnal.girish:
I am using poco F1. It can handle anything you throw at it so you won't be needing any kinda of improvement for now. Also for this specs there will be lot of Dev support. My suggestion is poco F1. Also btw 636 and 845 there is a lot of improvement in performance.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] mario123m:
As both these phones are reported to have touch issues, go for Pocophone. It's better in every aspect. Bootloader unlock wait is 3 days.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] aFoxWhoIsNice:
Thanks a lot!
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Zeggi:
Rmn5 pro is a bit older and also two completely different segments.

I had the rmn5 pro 6gb version and did the upgrade to f1.

I honestly prefer everything about the rmn 5 pro over the f1 but the thing is the f1 is a high end spec phone, latest SOC, has treble support so customs roms Will flow with options and also it will be one of the most sold 845 phones on the market so yeah custom roms will for sure be massive and last but not least, it's the later of the 2 phones.

Pocophone is a new segment by xiaomi and xiaomi has to put focus on the phone with upgrades and fixes and what not. If they mess this up the pocophone will be the first and last.

The approach by xiaomi is genius as a oneplus competitor but for the way cheaper price. The aim in the future will for sure turn out as the oneplus did.

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] aFoxWhoIsNice:
Thanks man, helped me decide! Will get the F1 then I think.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] ef1x:
Get the f1 you wont regret it. I had changed to f1 from samsung s7 edge. Best thing about poco f1 is speed and battery life
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] aFoxWhoIsNice:
Thank you, will do!
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] iamsubhranil:
even if poco was not in the scene, there was no reason to buy rn5 pro after 8months. you could go towards all the android one phones in the range, or asus zenfone max m1 pro.

however, if you can afford poco, don't even think twice. it is superior in everything from all of those devices.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Daruwalla:
I sold my RN5Pro and got Poco F1. Day and night difference in camera and performance. Why would you even compare 5 Pro with Poco? Go for Poco. :D

[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Questions & Answers] spyder006:
I recently flashed the PixysOS 9.0. Everything works flawlessly. Only the output via the headphone jack is very very loud.

While watching media it seems adjustable. But it is impossibly loud while calling. I use a BoAt in ear earphone. While calling the sound is very loud even at minimum volume in volume slider.

So is there an app or process to decrease the audio output via the headphone jack?
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Questions & Answers] yashbajpai13:
I am on pixys os too.... But i didn't seem to have that problem?.
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Questions & Answers] scorpi4744:
Yes it is very loud
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Questions & Answers] rajatagrawal:
I am also facing this issue i am using philips earphone hope that It will be fixed soon
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Questions & Answers] yashbajpai13:
Okay i wasn't facing this problem because till now i was on v2.0.

But when i updated to v2.1 i started facibg this issue.

But its not a big problem

I fixed it through viper4android fx magisk module.

The process may seem long when you're reading it but its very easy and short really.

To fix the issue flash viper4android fx through magisk and reboot

Then plug in your headset and open viper and play a song.

In viper go to headset tab and scrool down to the last option master gate and open it. In there you will see output gain, reduce it to -20dB or -14 dB according to your needs and thats it that will fix it...
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Questions & Answers] spyder006:
Yes I did this too.. but it only working while playing media.

It does no change to phone call audio sound.
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Questions & Answers] yashbajpai13:
Oh, i havent had the chance to see audio on call on headphones but you coul try one thing for that.

There is another module on magisk called audio compatibility patch you could try that.
