Well, after quite long time I am back to my beloved RMX1991, upgraded it to its final OTA version F26 (Android), and this is what I see ;-(

- There's no free way to get mainland China IP address (in order to check for any additional updates)

- There's no recoveries suitable for this stock Android 11 ROM (above mentioned F26)

- There's no any visible development activity for the device

- There's no manufacturer's support for the device any more (for more than a year already)

- There's no probably something else what I did not check so far :)

So I found out that the only way to have custom ROM on the device is downgrading it back to C-line (Android 10) ROM. And it is possible indeed!

EDIT 2023-01-07:

- I found a couple of custom recoveries working with stock Android 11 ROM, they cannot decrypt data

- It is possible to flash custom recovery from stock Android 11 ROM

- There were major changes between F20 and F26 ROM versions. F26 is native ZIP file now, while F20 is OZIP.

Here is a way to do it:

(the main idea is based on using stock recoveries and step-by-step downgrade, I used F26 -> F20 -> C27 path. )

(I am going to fill up the post in the next few days)

EDIT 2023-10-01:

- Downgrade method does exist. It is by means of DOWNGRADE ROM (ozip file). For RMX1991 model you can take it here

Hello and a Happy New Year.

Can you tell us how you did it?
[Realme X2 Guides, News, & Discussion] HeftyMidnight12:
hey, did you forget us?

i am really trying to downgrade and unlock the bootloader.

I have big problems with the Google Chrome App ( like 60% Battery drain in 1 Day) which is a System App i cant delete.

Please Help :(
[Realme X2 Guides, News, & Discussion] yakovpol:
In fact, I failed to reproduce again what I was able to do once.

I am 100% sure I had downgraded F26 to C27 ROM, there was F20 as a step on the way. But despite numerous attempts I could not do it once again. That is why there's no further instructions :(

[Xiaomi Mi CC9 / Mi 9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussi] ilovebytes:
as the title says i wonder why there is so "little" development for the i9lite going on :confused:

i thought a device with this great specs for such a little price would be very interesting, but when you look at similar devices as the 9t or 9t pro there is a lot more of development

don't get me wrong i really thank all the devs that work on the i9lite right now, but i am a little bit worried as the a2 lite i have right now is also a great device but without much development there are only a few custom roms and and a hardly working twrp for it :(

my i 9lite is actually on the way to me, but right now i am really afraid that i will get in the same problem as with the a2 lite that there is absolutely no interest for the devs to work for this device.

Maybe the 9t(pro) would have been the better decision regarding this, but i really do not like the front cam of the T devices

I wish i could do a little developing for custom roms myself but i do not have the skills :crying: -

what do you guys think about it or you you have no concerns in this direction and you are really happy with the i9lite an how things are at the moment ?
[Xiaomi Mi CC9 / Mi 9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussi] eemgee:
I'm the same as you, waiting for mine to arrive.

Moving from Moto g5 plus it looks pretty quiet here.

I hope we can get a decent gcam at least
[Xiaomi Mi CC9 / Mi 9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussi] benoitb85:
I don't know about other countries but in France the Mi 9 Lite just started becoming available through carriers. It might be that there are just less people equipped with that phone for now. I will also get a Mi 9 lite, there is already Lineage and GSI, so the roms I'm most interested in are there already.
[Xiaomi Mi CC9 / Mi 9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussi] Kadyo:
Just reading from telegram group. One developer (coderzs)is ready to make base tree(I'm not sure of the term),also a recognized developer of mia2 lineage and other custom rom fo a2. But they trying to raise fund to get the device. I think it's just a matter of time and we can see a lot custom here in xda. Just follow the telegram group,search for mi9t lite/Cc9 global.
[Xiaomi Mi CC9 / Mi 9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussi] shhnedo:
For there to be active development and/or many developers, the device must be widely available and relatively popular. You can't expect all those things to be a fact barely few months after device release. Seeing as it has great specs and is reasonably priced, it's just a matter of time until the device becomes interesting to developers.

Also, a word of advice - nobody likes doing stuff for free for a pushy user base.
[Xiaomi Mi CC9 / Mi 9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussi] ilovebytes:
that is absolutly clear, also i really apriciate all the work that the devs do in their freetime and for free, my opening post is absolutly not meant in this direction.

i am grateful that there is this great modding community that gives us a lot of opportunities that the manufacturers themselves do not even they get paid for it.

i am only worried as custom roms is the only way to have a long life for the smartphone as you still get new android versions when the manufacturer is only releasing security updates or nothing at all at a certain point.

so i hope you are right and that its only a matter of time :)

[MENTION=7750125]Kadyo[/MENTION]

a that sounds interesting i hope i can find this group as i am not so familiar with this telegram, i would also like to spend a certain amount to get the i9lite for the dev (maybe you can pm me the group if its not against xda's rules)

MOD EDIT: Telegram link removed, read the STICKY!
[Xiaomi Mi CC9 / Mi 9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussi] iuliusdeblobbis:
A huge factor in ROM development is the geographic area in which the device is popular. Most developers for Xiaomi phones are from India which is an incredibly competitive market where, frankly, this phone makes little sense: the Mi 9T with basically the same specs is only marginally more expensive, and the latest Redmi is waaaaaaay cheaper. Now, in Europe the Mi 9 Lite makes more sense for the price bracket it's in, but for some reason the developer scene in European countries is lackluster at best. Fortunately, Russia is another country famously active for Android developing and, apparently, this phone is doing fairly well there.

As someone mentioned early, we're currently trying to buy and send a Mi 9 Lite to a ROM developer, so depending on how this ends we may be able to get this forum moving a bit :D

In the meantime, my standard response is the usual: if you really can't stand MIUI, give GSIs a shot! They're far better than I thought!
[Xiaomi Mi CC9 / Mi 9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussi] xzn1:
It's not yet released in India, is it? That might also be a reason for why there's not a lot going on yet. I do think it is weirdly priced in Europe as well. It's a bit disheartening to see there's not a lot going on (yet, hopefully!) in terms of custom ROMs, but I've never used a custom ROM before on either of my phone and I don't intend to play around with ROMs anyway.

But nice to hear you guys try to get a phone to a ROM developer!

I've Purchased Mi9Lite About 2 Month Ago(Iran- From Abu Dubai) , Device is Great For Price (350-400$ In My Country! ) in Compare to other devices like RN8P

But development???

There's Even No Ported Gcam For Mi9Lite and Stock Camera Quality is awful

Custom Roms? Hmmn I'd rather to use more stable versions

But there's still a hope, In Russian Forums (4pda) some devs r developing kangaroo kernel for this device

MIUI Rom Are So Smooth but have little bugs and they're annoying like app freezing while using VPN!

[Xiaomi Mi CC9 / Mi 9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussi] Tomek0000:
I bought mi 9 lite for 217$ month ago. This is the best choice of Mi9/Mi9T because of its price and card slot.

This smartfon had working LOS 2 months after world release! Now LOS is ebought mature for use it as daily driver. With ported gcam is absolutely amasing. My old xperia z3c waited years for first LOS, and up to 5 years for OFFICIAL version of LOS.

If Mi9 will sell itself very good, we will see many other custom roms.

I will stay with LOS, because is the best for me.

Even with GSI, I could not make the camera work satisfactorily and rom to pass the safetynet, and the statusbar does not display the icons properly ... :(
[Xiaomi Mi CC9 / Mi 9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussi] barth2:
I have the mi a3 and I'm looking at the 9 lite for the bigger and more high res screen. But yeah there's definitely more development for the a3 though it was officially launched in September vs July (according to gsmarena). I do hope we get more devs for this phone, because it seems like a good one. I'm already stretching my budget with the 9 lite. I don't want to stretch more with the 9t

Agent Soap & The Knuckle Deep Coding Crew PRESENTS:

DARK SIDE RC

What side are you on?

What this is:

For starters it's an unmodified firmware pulled from Samsung via Frija.

A Special Kylo Ren themed build of N975U1UES2ASK2

(I suspect this will be the final build before Android 10 drops in January for the N975X.)

Region: XAA

Build Date: 2019-11-18

Security Patch: December 1

MD5: 141E9C993B6479612D85E943F9B4EEA1

DOWNLOAD LINK

​

INSTRUCTIONS
[LIST=1]
[*] Download the firmware and confirm the MD5 matches.
[*] Open your copy of Patched Odin3.
[*] Reboot device into Download Mode: adb reboot bootloader
[*] Connect phone and wait until the ID:COM in Odin is blue.
[*] I flashed BL AP CP and CSC with positive results.
[*] Click the start button, sit back and wait until its done.
[*] Embrace the Dark Side.
[/LIST]

Somethings to note;

This zip is a monster 7.7gb.

I could not dirty flash and had to do a full wipe.

I could not update Galaxy apps over WiFi, only on LTE. (it may be a network issue unique to me, ymmv.)

Initial boot took FOREVER. It felt like 10 minutes. Loaded on your device its close to 35gb once booted. So what I' saying is be patient on first boot, because activation took another 10.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Agent Soap:
[MENTION=4326291]6h0st[/MENTION] this is untouched (not rooted), from Samsung, so theoretically there wont be any knox problems. [MENTION=4309127]speedyjay[/MENTION] I'm not sure if there are any flash restrictions between devices (other than Snapdragon vs Exynos). I haven't had any issues as of yet, but I could be both very wrong and extremely lucky. I can say with 100% confidence it works great on N975U & U1 as this is a U1 firmware on my U device.

Hey guys, I've moved this to the general section for now given it's not exactly a rom and more of a stock firmware. Also any update on a download link? I realize you may have gotten excited and decided to draw up an op which I totally get. It does take quite a bit of time and effort to make one. My guess is that you had hoped it would be uploaded by the time you made it and it either failed to upload or took too long. As I'm sure you know XDA doesn't really like the whole place holder thing so let's try to get the link set for people. Please ping me here when you get it all set. If we can't get the links resolved soon the thread will be of no use and have to be closed. So fingers crossed you can get this sorted out shortly

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Agent Soap:
See this is where it all began... *#1234#* had me on 3 different versions & when I would try to update it would say "unsupported version goto service center blah". So I fired up Odins other half (Frija) and pulled the latest version for the N975U1 with XAA region to minimize bloat. What I downloaded was this 7+gb firmware (that rocks btw), and now it says I'm upto date. Ill know in January when the new patch drops!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] PR_Grim:
Thanks for sharing this with the comunity. A few questions and concerns, first (question), can we revert back to stock non-dark side rom from this?

Second (concern)-you uploaded to mega, not everyone has a mega accnt, an accnt is requiered after certain file size so getting it from there in a no go?.

Third (question), I checked using frija and samfirm, both showed the same firmware with same file size (7+Gb) using diferent CSC's, TMB, USC and XAA, Are they the same?, meaning they ALL are Dark Side edition.

Sorry to bother you with all this, but my note 10+ is on at&t and we all know how difficult the process is for this specific carrier because of the online firmware availabilty and teh specifics on how and what to flash we we switch firmwares.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Agent Soap:
Not a bother at all! Ill try and answer in their order:

1. Being an ATT device, I think the only challenge is finding the proper stock firmware for going back. I would suggest that you have a copy of the ATT firmware on hand before flashing, in case things go sideways. That being said however, reverting back to any other firmware or rom should be like replacing any other rom/firmware. Because this is stock that has been heavily themed by the OEM in preparation for joint release of the final Star Wars movie, 'Rise of Skywalker'. I think worst case scenario would be you spend all day downloading and flashing different roms until it works.

2. Easiest solution: Open a free Mega account if you want to download it. Or dont make one and don't download. All the choices belongs to you. Finding a (reliable) file host for a file that is sooo big is incredibly difficult. AnonFiles, HugeFIles and a couple more still require the uploader to make an account. I already had a Mega account so I used it.

3. I don't know, I would bet yes if its 7+gb. Happy flashing!

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] PR_Grim:
Probably not, it's merely 5Gb.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] BigE:
Downloaded and installed. As expected, a wipe ( or using CSC, not Home CSC) is required. Since I got the 10+ I haven't done a clean install , so besides the visual dark theme, it feels like the phone is responding quicker. Pretty sure it isn't placebo, but a result of starting all from scratch. Thanks for the link to Mega to download. Feels a bit like the good old flash OCD days .. :svetius:

Now nothing works. I just get the menu no mater what I Fastboot flash boot.
