I pre-ordered unlocked version as well but now I'm having second thoughts because I will be losing VoLTE, WiFi Calling and visual VM.

Is it possible to get these features on unlocked versions?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Questions & Answers] krabman:
The phone should provision itself when you put in the sim card. What you get out of that is hard to say as they only provision what they support but again, Lisa mentioned that 5G worked on both AT&T and Tmo, VoLTE worked on both, cant remember if she mentioned calling or visual. She did say something to the effect that everything was working but that was a few days ago and I don't recall it exact. I'm on Fi and and my phones always provision up just fine.

[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Questions & Answers] carlitos66:
I am more interested if the question from original poster is answered. Will the hot spot work on unlocked US version? I am using it every day really heavily. I don't have anything in my AT&T plan for 30gb hot spot and I am not willing to pay them anything extra for my data that I am already paying for.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Questions & Answers] ROE_HUNTER:
I have my Fold 2, Unlocked, am on ATT Unlimited Plan that includes 30GB hotspot. It is working fine. Visual Voicemail that came on the phone works as well. As posted above there is no WiFi calling, not sure on the VoLTE, I rarely use my phone, well, as a phone.

I guess it depends on what plan you are on. On my original 9G plan the hotspot just counted towards the 9G of data.

1. First of all, you need to sign up and login on the official website of Oppo in China. (Use Google Translate if you need to)

https://bbs.coloros.net/graphic?id=1498611

2. Follow the links and download the unlock program of Oppo Find x2 /x2 pro

3. Install the apk on your phone

4. Ensure your device has the latest version of your ROM installed.

5. Click "Start Applying" on the Unlock App. You will need to wait about a month. After a month, open the application, and if "Approved" is displayed, please go to the next step.

If not, Force Close the Application several times over and over, and maybe it will display "Approved".（Some Chinese citizens reported a similar situation.）If you still can't, please contact oppo online customer service, they can solve this problem for you.

6. Next, please back up your data.

7. After receiving the 'Approval' in the app.

Go to Settings - about mobile phone - version information - version number Click here five times.

Go to settings - other settings - Developer options then Check OEM unlock.

8. Once again, open the Deep Test application and click "Start the Depth Test". The phone will automatically restart and enter Bootloader mode.

9. Connect your phone to the computer.

10. Open the command prompt browse to your adb/fastboot location and enter

"fastboot flashing unlock"

then confirm. At this time, the mobile phone will give some warning information. Please read it carefully before making a decision.

If you decide, choose "unlock the bootloader" and press the power key to restart. It is worth noting that the phone will be formatted here. If you have opened "find my phone" before, you need to enter your oppo account password to start your phone.

11. You now setup your phone as normal though with an unlocked bootloader.

12. If you wish to Root then please see this guide: https://xdaforums.com/find-x2-pro/how-to/magisk-root-install-unlocked-bootloader-t4157327

can i flash global rom after unlocked bootloader ?
[OPPO Find X2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Sage:
i was wondering the same thing. i dont see why not. give it a shot and let us know. you have nothing to lose it will simply not let you flash if it doesnt work and your existing ROM/Phone will be unaffected.
[OPPO Find X2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] klanbo78:
Ok, so I've unlocked my Chinese Find X2 Pro using the official method, which is by using the depth testing app and waiting for approval, then unlocking via Fastboot.

But I still can't flash the global ROM using the stock ColorOS recovery. I've tried various versions, just either get the 'Installation failed' or 'The installed version is lower than current' error.

Do I need to wait until TWRP is available for the X2 Pro or is there another way? I don't want to root, just install the stock ROM from another region. Will Magisk allow me to do this?

Was really hoping unlocking the bootloader would do it, guess it's a good start :)
[OPPO Find X2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Sage:
bugger.. it would appear that the ColorOS Recovery is preventing the install. So yes you would need TWRP or someone to hack the ColorOS recovery to flash without the check.

though with an unlocked bootloader you can flash TWRP as soon as it's been developed by someone.. or risk flashing a twrp from a similiar phone?
[OPPO Find X2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] klanbo78:
Bugger indeed, I've bricked it! Tried various ways to do it as really need to get rid of this Chinese ROM. I flashed a Boot image from a global version, didn't work. Then flashed the Chinese version back.

So then in a bold (stupid) move I tried to flash other images from the global ROM - now won't load into recovery at all. With nothing to lose I tried loading TWRP recovery from one of the latest Realme phones this morning, didn't fix it.

What is weird is in Oppo / Realme ROMs there is no recovery image - not sure if it's part of the boot image?

Does anyone know how to obtain a recovery image? I think this is what I'm missing. Thinking maybe it's not part of the ROM on these devices.

---------- Post added at 04:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:22 PM ----------

And FYI, I've been using a python tool to decrypt the ozip files. Have looked in multiple ROMs, beta and standard, Chinese and global and even a few Realme ROMs.

I'm starting to hate Oppo, it's even more of a pain in the ass than Samsung! :silly:

I bought a Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5G yesterday off eBay just to get me by for the time being, it was a carrier version and I managed to get the stock global ROM with MI12 on it in 30 minutes using fastboot and flashing all the images. Refreshingly easy :)
[OPPO Find X2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] klanbo78:
Just using the adb toools via command prompt on my PC and phone on fastboot mode.

I.e. fastboot flash boot boot.img

There's no system image either, only vbmeta_system.img which I don't think it's the same thing. Watching YouTube videos and searching the internet now to try and figure out :confused:
[OPPO Find X2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] klanbo78:
Finally managed to get the phone back up and running after brushing up on Linux and downloading various tools. Basically this thread saved me!! https://xdaforums.com/realme-x50-pro/help/stock-recovery-image-t4111477/page6

As mentioned, the recovery image is not to be found in the firmware. So once you decrypt the Ozip file (using python tool like the one in the above post), you'll see the boot.img file along with various others, but no system, vendor or recovery images. Using the UR-Tool mentioned and a simple linux command I managed to create a recovery image.

Flased it using fastboot and now all working - still on Chinese ROM though. Next step is to try to flash the global image onto this Chinese variant - expect I'll brick it again :)
[OPPO Find X2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Sage:
Impressive mate well done! And thanks for posting the solution! With a recovery.img file you are now free to experiment! I hope you get the Global Working! Please keep us up to date!

Can you upload the recovery.img to help the community? :)
[OPPO Find X2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Sage:
You will be the first person in the world to have an unlocked bootloader on the Global ROM! :)

surely with some combination of Global and Chinese it will work!

Chinese Recovery -> Global Boot -> Global ROM -> Chinese Vendor

Global Recovery -> Global Boot -> Global System -> Chinese Vendor

Chinese Recovery -> Chinese Boot -> Global System -> Global Vendor

etc

etc
[OPPO Find X2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] klanbo78:
Thanks for your support :)

I'll upload the recovery images for the global and Chinese variants once I'm back on my desktop later.

So the issue I'm facing now is it this phone doesn't have a system, vendor or product partition. My assumption is that I need to flash the global system image, as that's the one that basically contains the OS.

I think that these images are contained within the "super" partition which appears to be a dynamically resizable partition. I have no idea how to flash to these! :confused:

I'm trying to make sense of it all but fastbootd has come up a few times, which apparently is needed to flash to userspace which is where this super partition resides.

I can see in the ROM there is an updater script file that refers to these images, create groups in the super partition and resizes them as necessary. It seems to use the vb_meta_system image in some way. I have no idea how to replicate this script in fastboot though or if it's even possible?

Can anyone help?

vbmeta.img removes the boot verification so you definitely want to use that. see this thread for its use.

I know they have a monthly quota, perhaps it's been reached this month.

Or maybe the servers are down? there were a few days during my application that I couldn't check the status, just assumed the server was offline - perhaps it's something like that.

Maybe just wait a few days and see.

Where is you download the app from? And do you have the Chinese variant?

Yeah, that would be really nice. I couldn't boot also in recovery after android 11 beta:silly:
[OPPO Find X2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] klanbo78:
Here's the link to the recovery (and boot) images, have zipped them as they're quite large. I've included both variants (so PDEM30 and CPH2025).

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1HkNeQSuzsPDdue4KqRbDWLah0YH-CSwb?usp=sharing

In terms of progress, there is none. I got a bit adventurous and decided to flash all of the partitons on my PDEM30 with the images from the CPH2025 (manaully as there is no "flash-all.bat" file in the OTA ROM). I think it would have worked as it has for phones I've flashed this way in the past, but as I now know phones that launced with Android 10 are quite different due to having a dynamic "super" partition. This super partition contains the system, product, vendor image, etc. It should not (can't be) be flashed from fastboot as it's held in the "user space" of the phone and fastboot doesn't know how to deal with these partition types.

Pixel devices have a program called fastbootd which I think can be used for this, but Oppo doesn't appear to have that mode. Basically the phone now won't boot to recovery at all, I can only get into fastboot mode.

Not even worth holding out for TWRP as as of right now, TWRP doesn't support these dynamic partions (so any phone launced with Android 10). I contacted Oppo UK support and they said I could send in for repair, but then got told by the company who would be doing the repair (SBE UK) that they only support UK and EU devices. So looks like it might be going back to China for a repair (just need to find a freind who speaks Chinese :))

Before that though I'm going to see if I can edit the recovery.img in Android Kitchen, to see if I can find the bit that's responsible for it not booting into recovery mode. I think at this point I have nothing to lose!!

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] giancast450:
I am trying to make room for GAPPS. I have a Nexus5 16GB. I was able to install LOS 17.1 but cannot install GAPPS. It tells me that there is no room, only 27Mb free so I want to increase the size of the system partition to 2Gb for future expansion just in case.

My mmcblk0 shows that my system partition is ext2 is this correct? Below is an excerpt of the pertinent mmcblk0 partition table.

Model: MMC SEM16G (sd/mmc)

Disk /dev/block/mmcblk0: 15.8GB

Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B

Partition Table: gpt

Number Start End Size File system Name Flags

25 193MB 1267MB 1074MB ext2 system

26 1267MB 1298MB 31.5MB crypto

27 1298MB 2032MB 734MB ext4 cache

28 2032MB 15.8GB 13.7GB ext4 userdata

29 15.8GB 15.8GB 5632B grow

Also there are no flags. I do not think that this is a problem but the ext2 has me concerned, since I do not know if it is wrong but that is what parted is giving me. After I delete the partitions 25-28 and resize to my requirements then I have to format. When I format partition 25 should I do it as ext2 as parted indicates that the partition is right now? and the rest to ext4?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

[Sony Xperia 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Miustone:
Welcome to my latest Thread. Today for the Official Pixel Expierence Builds from the Official Website. This Guide does include the Installation of a custom Recovery which allows Factory Resets and flashing Updates/ROMs. Enjoy!​

1. Download and prepare everything

First of all visit: https://developer.sony.com/file/dow...-aosp-android-10-0-kernel-4-14-kumano-latest/

And download the latest Software Binaries from Sony which You will need to flash together with the Boot Image (Kernel).

After that download the ROM File from here: https://download.pixelexperience.org/ and also download the "Recovery Image" which is a Kernel/Boot Image

Get the Magisk Manager Apk from here: https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk

Extract the Software Binaries to get the .img File from it.

2. Flash using Fastboot

After getting the Kernel/Boot Image do a patch with the Magisk Manager App (Your Phone doesn't needs to be rooted for that) (The Output File will get called magisk_patched,img from now)

Flash the Software Binaries from SONY with:

fastboot flash oem_a SW_binaries_for_Xperia_Android...............img

Repeat that step with:

fastboot flash oem_b SW_binaries_for_Xperia_Android...............img

Now flash the Kernel You got from the Magisk Manager with:

fastboot flash boot_a magisk_patched.img

And repeat that again for the Second Slot:

fastboot flash boot_b magisk_patched.img

3. Install using a SD Card or ADB

After flashing the Kernel. Turn Off Your Device and hold the Volume- (Lower) Button together with the Power Button until You see the SONY Logo. Release both Buttons and wait for the Recovery coming up.

Search now for the Apply Update Option and select based on Your preference the ADB or SD Card Method to flash the ROM. Connect Your Xperia to Your PC again and enter:

adb sideload filename.zip

(In case of using the ADB Method)

Your Device should now flash the selected ZIP File (In our case the Pixel Expierence ROM).

4. Profit

Wipe Your Device now using the Factory Reset of the Recovery. Install the Magisk Patched Kernel Image again using the commands of the second Step of this Guide to keep Magisk functional. Connect Your Phone to a Charger and install the latest Magisk Manager to Your Phone. That's it! Enjoy (:

What Works:

VoLTE

Wifi Calls

Video Calls over Carrier

Camera Button (Does not start Camera Apps)

Everything!?

Bugs:

None!?
