[General Questions and Answers] bernieparcon001:
Hi guys. ;)

I'm just wondering whether all GSI ROMs can run on Android 8.0 or if there are GSI's that run only on Android 8.1 and up.

As one who lives in an area where the internet speed is so fast :rolleyes:,

and where bandwidth is a thing,

I would really appreciate it if someone would tell me whether some GSI ROMs work only with higher Android versions.

Currently I'm using Lenovo S5 with Android 8.0. It has ZUI 3.7 which is pretty nice that I have to resort to custom ROMs and my only hope is GSI's since there has been a low number of developers for this phone and I'm not one.

Hope this question gets answers. :fingers-crossed:

ok, so i posted this a couple days ago at ppcgeeks and no one knows the answer, everyone has been giving substitutes, but not THIS theme... take a look at the vid, the transitions are sweet...

Where the heck do i get this????

is this with wad? if someone knows how to do this, hook it up!

I'm not fond of the other iphone themes becuase the transitions are lame or choppy or non-existant. This is a nice one and i want it lol.

not bad... the one i'm looking for undoubtedly uses flash lite aswell, but i really wanna find the first one... i just installed itask and it runs smooth and looks great, but the transitions aren't as sweet... having the iphone transitions is one thing, but having a transition one step ahead is even better.

Thanks theOne for this... but is there anyone out there who knows enough about developing that can tweak the transitions and customize?

Hell, if no one can find the original, might aswell try and recreate it... right? or is that askin a lil much? lol

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ron23ny:
Is your OPPO A5 2020 rooted now

Do i understand, you did try method 3 using the boot.img provided in the link?

You were able to patch the boot.img with magisk?

Did you flash the patched boot.img to phone successfully? If so, its safe to use the boot.img provided in the link?

Are you rooted now?

That has to be a typo, because for the OPPO A5 2020 its powerbutton + volume down

Yes, when use volume up, its keep restarting. When use volume down, its login to coloros recovery mode,not fastboot mode.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ron23ny:
Ok, i tried to get in fastboot mode with command adb reboot bootloader. I do get the fastboot logo screen for a second, but then it just loading the OS pie 9, like someone stated here before. I read in some sources, OPPO company disabled the fastboot mode for this phone, so you will not able to flash files using adb. I also read power + volume down = recovery mode (working) and power + volume up = fastboot mode (not working because company disabled this).

I use firmware CPH1931EX_11_A.28. Now the big question: does somebody know, if some older version of firmware has fastboot not disabled by company?

Seems for now, you can only root this phone by using hardware tools like miracle box and easy jtag pro.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sotirious:
gffg

I also using CPH1931EX_11_A.28 and have exact same bootloader problem.

I manage to extract boot.img from 11_A.13 and 11_A.28 firmwares using "ubuntu ozip to zip" and files appear identical and patched successfully using Magisk. The boot.img provided in the link is not the same, I wouldn't use it.

Did you find out if some older version of firmware has fastboot not disabled by company?

Many thanks for taking time to read reply.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayaduana:
Still no luck. Fastboot is disabled.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ron23ny:
Seems this phone is secured too well. I was not able to downgrade to some older version of firmware. ColorOS 6 Recovery Mode is saying: "cannot install/upgrade firmware, because your current OS is newer."

So OPPO made it impossible too, to downgrade your firmware.

They disabled builtin phone call recording too in the Netherlands. But in India you still have this feature.

When i bought the phone, firmware 11_.A10 was installed. I regret i upgraded to 11_.28.

Now i cannot test if i am able to upgrade from 11_.A10 to 11_.A27 (downloaded from india OPPO website)

Phone call recording is important to me, so for now i just ordered a old phone with marshmellow android 6 in Amazone, because phone call recording apps are not working properly in Pie 9, unless you are rooted.

I hope a 11_.A29 will be released in future, so i will download this release from india oppo website, hoping i am able to upgrade this release, hoping it will bring back built in phone call recording and fastboot.

I do read in some sources oppo a5 2020 will get android 10 in aug/sept 2020.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacobpayag:
Here's the problem with Oppo phones in general. Oppo locked the bootloader real good. Not only is the bootloader locked, but access to fastboot is also disabled. Oppo has started to offer a bootloader unlock program for some of their phones but as of now, the program only supports most of their flagship products.

The only possible way to unlock the bootloader is by using a tool that can access the bootloader configuration and unlock fastboot access. After that it's just a matter of creating a patched system image with root enabled. And unfortunately for us, only Oppo has the ability to provide such tools as the bootloader is proprietary and doing some reverse engineering may be illegal (not sure about this tho).

customer service

Hi,

same problem. I tried contacting the global customer service by mail, asking for root solution or to re-enable fastboot on the next ColorOS updates. They just do not offer a solution or consider the second choice, just kept saying they do not have that procedure. Honestly I expected something similar.

However, I am just one user and maybe they will reconsider the choice of disabling fastboot if other start bothering them. At least is worth a try, their mail is:

hello AT oppo DOT com

PS: after sending your email you will receive a mailer notificaion error, but they correctly receive it

Hi all, hopefully this is just a noob fix and appologies if I posted in incorrect thread/section.

Need assistance officially updating a new Oppo A5 2020 (UK purchase) Android 9, ColorOS 6 on version PCH1931EX_11_A.48 to latest available CPH1941EUEX_11_C.78 on Oppo UK site.

I want to do it in most official way without mod anything that might void warranty in case I need to send this back.

Currently in Ireland and no OTA available, however I can get see OTA to upgrade me to C.72 when I check for updates through a smartdns pointing to UK.

Attempted to follow official Oppo guide here, https://support.oppo.com/uk/answer/?aid=neu14800 to update it but makes no sense to me, Oppo chat support were also unable to clarify how to patch it. It seems to me like something is missing in their guide there or not quite right. They keot telling me to do a standard reboot only.​

I followed all steps to get the download, and end up with the .ozip package​

extracted it as per step 9, then I am stuck.​

​

Is the patch meant to be installed through recovery or something or is there some sort of executable file in the extracted folder that will magically run the extracted update? I have placed the unziped folder in the root of the SD card and also dropped into the root of internal memory, then rebooted but nothing magically happens when I did just a "standard reboot" as advised by Oppo.​

Can somebody point me on the correct procedure to get this update? Am I supposed to get into recovery and from there I point it to the boot.img file? Would taht be correct procedure? Appreciate some guidance.

While we are are it, in one of the extracted folders in the .ozip C.78 patch here: data_update_patch\app

...there are a bunch of japanese apks ( jp.viber, jp.rakuten etc) alongside some others like email.apk, opporelax.apk , is there a way to proceed without installing the japanese apks as I dont need them(!), and i'd hate to install them but then be unable to remove them through the standard app. uninstall method.
