[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Hutch MD:
I'm currently using Draken's Universal B12 Bootstack (I think).

Would you mind explaining the differences between the bootstacks other than offline charging and splash screen? What is the difference between B12 and B20?

I've been reading about Oki's opinion about having a Bootstack that has EDL Button-Combinations enabled, but I can't seem to find Oki's Bootstack.

Also, Which bootstacks has EDL Buttons Enabled, as well as a dark boot-screen. (The current boot screen is a bright gold Axon 7 logo....it hurts to see it at night in the dark)

Thanks in advance.

Anyone running Havoc 2.9 and experience very slow wifi performance?

Other than wifi and 4G performance Everything else works great.

A2017U, Havoc 2.9, Baddar 1.2 kernel, Magisk 20.1, Jojoc 3.2 script, Gcam_6.2.030_Advanced_V2.1.190614.0200.

I started with Axon7_LOS15.1_180925_B12Oki_TWRP_LABS1.3_FULL_EDL flashed with Axon7_EDL_Tool.

[MENTION=8456254]EBeatFLA[/MENTION] Thank you for your guide.

Do you have a copy of OrdenKrieger's TWRP 3.2.3.0? The link in the guide to it is dead sadly.

Thank you

Ok, I'm having reboots while recording video either using the included camera app or the recommended gcam.

Once i stop recording, the phone says 'shutting down' and turns off.

When I turn it back on the battery shows 1%.

Before the reboot the battery showed 70%+.

I wonder if flashing a different vendor will help in any way, and if so, do i just flash the vendor via TWRP and reboot? or the flashing needs to be done in sequence or with other things e.g. kernel etc...?

Everyone do yourself a favor and stop using GSI. Use any of the new ROMs by raystef66 or Syberia by king1990. It is by far better to have a device specific ROM for the Axon 7. We were only using GSI because we had no sources to build Pie. Once sources for LOS16 were released, devs were able to build and improve Pie ROMs for the Axon.

I personally prefer Syberia, it includes Baddar kernel, and is well balanced between performance and battery.

Still need to do the Magisk Hide Props module to get Play Store certified, and you may want to use Viper4Android if you think you need to improve audio. Other than that, no other mods necessary. Just set your animations to .80.

I guess I should mention, if you're coming from GSI, you will need to do a clean install, wiping everything except internal. You do not need to worry about vendor, device specific ROMs include vendor. Just flash ROM, flash Gapps, boot, set up, go back and flash Magisk for root. Easy.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] shpitz461:
Sounds like a plan, I'll give it a shot.

What camera app are you using? the included one with the rom?
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] EBeatFLA:
I no longer use this phone, but still help out in the telegram group. Stock camera is LOS16 camera and should work fine.

If wanting to try a GCam here are a couple to try out that some have reported to work, except for sync of flash. Just do a Google search for them, you'll find them.

Only issue is charging, sometimes it will show charging (when connecting to a dock) for a second and then stop, I have to reboot the phone for it to charge. But when it charges, it does it really fast, 2.2+Amp.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] EBeatFLA:
Great, glad i could help. I don't use a dock, not sure how to help with that. Seems the Axon 7 will always have at least one little bug, no matter what we do. Lol
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] shpitz461:
Haha, yeah, but all in all not bad @ all.

Sad ZTE dropped their support and gave us a pathetic upgrade to Oreo which had many issues, this will be my last ZTE phone that's for sure.

The battery is also terrible, i lost about 50% capacity in the 1.5 years I've had the phone.

I will also never buy another HTC, had an M7 which I loved, but support for it got dropped like a rock. One of my boys actually use it right now, 6 years later still working fine. because of it I was tempted to flash ViperOS on the Axon7, I used Viper Rom on the M7 which was a work of art back then... :)

[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] kluongo:
On another note, just check http://firmware.science for the latest pie updates. Very easy to use, just select your phone model (for example SM-G960U) and then select your current firmware version, and it will give you a list of pie updates. Also as a note, most of the updates branch off from 2 "base" firmware versions (at least this is the case for the SM-G960U). If you happen to have this phone (as I do), I suggest going this firmware route, as its constantly being updated. Get BRJ5 combo firmware (from a site/app like updato), as this will be your restart point for future updates, most update branches start here and stem from BRJ5. From there, you can update to pie with one of the simple " 1 step routes" like (BRJ5 to "pick your update.zip".... Or if you want a more active firmware branch which stems a new update more frequently, start at BRJ5 and download the BRJ5 to BRJ6 update.zip. Then once on BRJ6 there are constant new firmware updates regularly. The most recent I believe at the time of this post is CRLM, so BRJ6 to CRLM. It's easy to figure out once you prod around a little bit, read a bit, and learn a bit.

[Huawei Mate 9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Licaon_Kter:

[Huawei Mate 9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] lawong:
not possible . im willing to spend any amount of $$ to unlock the bootloader but sadly no possible method for the latest firmware.
[Huawei Mate 9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] rex91:
It does work but first you need to downgrade your phone to nougat (Android 7.x) first and then it will work.
[Huawei Mate 9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] lawong:
i have read it in others thread that its only possible if not in the latest firmware .
[Huawei Mate 9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] leo5111:

[Huawei Mate 9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Licaon_Kter:
No, but there's a chance that the tools you buy access to might be able to extract that unlock code...no guarantee...no refunds...
[Huawei Mate 9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] leo5111:
EDIT seller says its 4.4.23+ EMUI/Android Version: 8.0 is that the unlockable one or is there more to the version that says it?
[Huawei Mate 9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] irony_delerium:
You need the build number and security patch date.

Pretty much all EMUI 8 builds on the Mate 9 run a 4.4.23+ kernel, even up through the latest security patches.

Once you know the build number, find it in Firmware Finder, and find the build for that region that enables GPU Turbo. If it's an older build, then it's likely that you could use the official rollback firmware to get the bootloader unlocked.

Yup, .375 is the latest one that's good, after that .377 had GPU Turbo and issues with downgrading.

[Huawei Mate 9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Licaon_Kter:
You won't get into the trouble that others did with .377 or later, yes.

But there's no guarantee everything works nicely.

Do read as much as possible before doing anything.

Also keep in mind that Android 9 is coming soon so maybe you don't need to unlock and whatnot.

Pretty nice, except some minor issues, read more here: https://xdaforums.com/mate-9/development/roms-openkirin-aosp-collection-t3828804/

I highly recommended it if you have an unlocked bootloader, works great with Magisk (only using Magisk for LKT though: https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/xz-lxt-1-0-insane-battery-life-12h-sot-t3700688 ) and the camera is the best I've used (there's some lag on mode switch, but given that the Huawei camera app behaves strangely on custom ROMs this one is fine). Note that I use the included camera, not one from Magisk or elsewhere. Battery live is great (exceeding 6h SoT constantly), (since this is clean AOSP) my apps don't get killed at random, and they can now show scheduled notification and such (the main reason I've dropped EMUi in the first place).
[Huawei Mate 9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] irony_delerium:
It should work pretty well. Camera is always troublesome, though - Huawei pulled some dumb with the camera HALs and the stock camera app, so there are various issues there.

For what it's worth, MHA is one of my primary development targets for the OmniROM builds, since that's one of the 2 devices I've got for testing them out on currently.

When you booted the twrp.img did you have the newest one and then install the newest twrp installer.zip?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] sliding_billy:
Short version... Extract the boot.img from the system image file and install that to both partitions through fastboot (going to have to do some reading on how to do that, and you might learn a bit in the process). System should boot normally then with stock recovery. Now, you can use the current version of the twrp.img to root without even needing to permanently install it. Before you even do that though, spend some time getting to know your device and the current versions and options that are out there. That web page you pointed to was just a primer and was published when the device first came out. Their have been some small changes.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] v12xke:
