Is it possible to downgrade to android O from R using this method?
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] Patrick Morgan:
Yes the unbrick tool, wipes and formats EVERY partition. clearing your phone of all data, then flashes original images to the partitions. making its stock again.

it removes all your data. wipes the phone and installed the first released rom for the 5S device from the US region.

this unbrick tool does not work on 5G devices.

there are different unbrick tools for the 5G and the 5S be mindful of which one you're using.

if you are on 9.12,9.16 or 9.19 on a 5S device, this Unbrick tool will restore android 10 OS for the phone.
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] Hamzah Thamer:
Same things but I think CN V 9.19 is working I am not sure but I hear there is so much problems in that update even in root method also u can try and see

When they gonna update red magic moment the reason we buy the phone is cuz of this app and the way it recorded so we can post it into TikTok easy now we need to record full game and cut it by ourself come onnnnnnn
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] letzdoit:
you mean red magic moment is working on cn9.19?
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] Hamzah Thamer:
Is not working don’t update at all even pubg not working in this rom don’t try it at all is broken rom stupid software and it’s not working at alll
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] Patrick Morgan:
Its temporary, the bug that caused the recording app is just something that broke the recording detection.

screen recording still works fine. just not the magic moments setting.

if you're up to date, using 8.11 or 7.14 for now the game should still run correctly. but the redmagic moments recording feature requires an update, which according to Nubia is being investigated.

this fix or update may take time, but it will eventually come out.

in the meantime manual recording of the screen is still possible. you may need to edit a bit more than is usually required, but the fact still remains that recording your game sessions is still there.

if the game is not running at all, just make sure your phone is up to date, 8.11 or 7.14, and that you installed the game from the game store.

everyone that has done this i've spoken to has gotten the game working correctly. with the exception of the redmagic moments not working.

Hazmah above, is just upset, and angry. I asked him to provide sources for his claims on the PubG help thread, but he just gave strange stories and excuses. he has no information about Nubia's stance at this time. Where, i've been given word that Nubia is working on the issue.

no ETA though.
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] letzdoit:
Thanks. As long as a patch is in the making to sort the issue, and will not take months, it should be fine with most users. RM moments is something a lot of people purchased the device for, especially people like me who like posting montage videos on social media. It saves ~15-20 minutes of editing per video and if I post 3-4 videos a day it means 1 hour saved everyday. Plus with normal game recording the audio gets messed up at times (if I turn microphone in the game on and off, audio for the whole game goes silent). This is not a RM issue but across many android phones. For some reason magic moment doesn't have that issue.

That is why I was wondering if RM moments can be extracted into a stand alone app/ package where people can identify game/ processes and add to it to be recorded. For example CODM is another great game not supported. That way even independent developers can come up with patch updates instead of waiting for Nubia to release patches which historically has been painfully slow.
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] Hamzah Thamer:
I have no idea when they will release did any one try CN rom since 7.14 not working maybe 6.23 CN rom working by some how

Your income is not Nubia's problem.

This thread is for Rom disscussion. There is already a thread for news on PubG.

Please post to the appropriate thread.
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] letzdoit:
I really like the ui. But assuming the compromise is losing all native red magic gaming features?
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] Patrick Morgan:
Indeed i only tested the rom to see it boot, but many users on the 5g have already reported that trggers dont work, game space is not available, But the fan does work.

on the 5s you need to install a custom kernel that enables overclocking by default..not everyone wants to overclock their devices so they would need to manually change and down clock to stock again after first boot.

Battery life and the usual features benefits of custom rom are clearly there though,one user showing a massive 17 hour screen on time.

As great as it is to see development on the device going forward, I like some stock features too much to change permanently. At least for now.
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] letzdoit:
Nice. I wish I could code to build a rom combining the best features of both. If someone could port a rog 3 rom with the air trigger functions it would be so awesome!

How to know when the next update for red magic 5s will come to fix the problems with the recorder any idea about the date is it this month next month

And if the update will come is it gonna be on android 11 or they can only do patching update for the recorder only
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] letzdoit:
Hold your horses now. This is a rom thread not a pubg thread. Post such questions there. As I told you already, there is no ETA. There is no use asking the same question again and again.
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] Patrick Morgan:
Hamzah did ask about rom updates,

Nubia have issued an email stating they are working on the problem

But for now we have no staus update or an ETA for an update.

But as soon as I see an update posted anywhere i will post about it here.

No idea if the update will be on android 11 or android 10, the current android 11 update is too buggy to release to global, so it will be some months before an android 11 update for our device gloabally. But if the game space issue can be fixed, its possible nubia could release current version roms with just a gamespace update. Which would come out much earlier than waiting for android 11.

Thats my guess anyway. Without an ETA i cant promise anything. But i can confirm Nubia are working on fixing the error.

You'll see the update first on redmagic.gg
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] Bash29:
I have 5G Chinese version with global rom v3.13 installed can i install this rom EU (5G 4.13)?

And about rooting without unlocking bootloader does that method work on any version?
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] Patrick Morgan:
yes you can update to 4.13 if you wish. but as you're using the US/Asia rom for the 5G 8.11 rom would be the most up to date.

the TWRP and root guide will work on any 5S or 5G on Android 10.
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] Bash29:
thank you so much but i saw on you youtube someone who flashed a modem file after vbmeta is that necessary?
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] Patrick Morgan:
no, the modem file is not needed. I don't know of the youtube video you speak of. but when you flash a rom its modem files are flashed at the same time.

if the rom you're currently using is working correctly, then it means the US/Asia rom is the rom with the correct modem files for your region, which 8.11 would have for your device.

you should be able to install 8.11 directly over 3.13 if you are not rooted or have an unlocked bootloader.

then after follow my steps on the 2nd post to root and install TWRP. without losing your fingerprint.
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] Bash29:
I'm sorry for bothering you one last question lol, I updated the phone to 8.11 now I'm having issues with pubg it won't start keep force closing anyway can I go back to 3.16 without using unbrick tool?
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] Patrick Morgan:
Thanks to @Bash29 a solution to get the game to start on 7.14 and 8.11

to get the game to boot and working game space (with triggers)

install the current version.

manually go to app info and give permissions for storage and mic.

reboot phone.

then the game will start correctly even in game zone.

Magic moments still does not seem to work currently on 8.11 tested
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] friendnfriendz:
i did as you told i uninstalled the magisk but the device is still rooted i cant use any banking apps on my phone plus when i restart my phone says something like (the boot loader is unlocked the software integrity cannot be guaranteed etc...)
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] Patrick Morgan:
Unlocked bootloader is not the same thing as rooting.

Unlocking your bootloader causes alot of security apps to stop working unless you hide them correctly in magisk.

Removing magisk unrooted your phone, but having an unlocked bootloader will still flag security issues even if you went back to full stock rom eith stock kernel.

If you need your banking apps, i recommend learning how to relock your bootloader,

Then if you still need root apps to work also, follow my tutorial on the 2nd post to bypass bootloader unlocking, to gain root without unlocking your bootloader.

Using magisk to hide root from the device and google apps before you download any apps from the play store, thrn bide those apps also before you run them for the first time.

[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] Patrick Morgan:
Aye.

There is currently a OTA of 8.12 and 7.15

But as its only available as an OTA, there is no full rom zip, so i cannot post it without a link to the full rom.

Once Nubia release a full rom version, i'll update the first post.

I did a little bit of editing on the Stock kernel.

Everything exactly the same as stock, except the clocks of the GPU and the memory timings of the ram.

Tried to keep the speed / heat under control.

I tested in the quebec winter -8'c and also in room temp 23'c

These are my best scores, but i've seen the temps do well, Genshin impact tops out at 76 under heavy load.

For stock kernel, with just a little basic tweaking, those scores are very impressive.
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] Klirensxp:
Dear, can I have your modified kernel? The kernel from the respected mslezak has too many bugs, exactly the fan turns off when charging after turning off the screen, when fully charged it does not turn off when the screen is on, you have to turn on / off the game mode.
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] Patrick Morgan:
As the source for the 5S has not been released by Nubia, I cannot share it here on XDA.

I am still testing the Kernel for any possible bugs, like over heating or crashing under load in certain apps.

But unless Nubia release an updated Kernel source, our phones Kernel is still technically closed source, and cannot be shared on XDA due to XDA developer rules.

Ok. I have an issue. I got the OTA notification for 715 update last night. However I was getting “ your device is root” error. In order to get the OTA, I did uninstall magisk (from magisk app), as cleared dalvik/cache. Didn’t work. I even used advanced—> unroot from twrp still didn’t work. Even reset the data and cache but no avail.

Is there any solution? My bootloader is locked.
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] Patrick Morgan:
the only way to get it is to fully unroot your device.

OTA is checking all the flags for roots. just unrooting leaves traces and still states the device is rooted, even if you have no control over it.

what you uninstalled is the Bootloader root. but as the rom remember it was rooted before, it still states its rooted in the fastboot mode screen.

if you really want the update right now, your only options is to do a full wipe, to clear the device is root flag. then update.

or wait for a global release then install through TWRP

[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] Klirensxp:
Read the first page, first post.
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] Patrick Morgan:
There have been some reports of random reboots when charging.

But I've personally not experienced it.

I recommend installing the full update for your region to avoid any possible bugs the OTA may cause.

And as long as you follow the direction on the first post you shpuld be able to update without losing data.

Just remeber to save TWRP before you reboot or it will be erased.

And to reboot to recovery to re install magisk if you use that.

Some folk do this before they reboot, but i regularly find more bugs or issues doing this, so i allow the phobe to update with the stock boot, then just root again in twrp right after.

Anyone know how to enable vowifi? Pretty much wifi calling? I've done everything I could think of to enable it any advice?
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] Patrick Morgan:
Its possible, normally if you are using the full stock 9.19 rom the update sgows 9.21 if tou used any odd partitons from other roms you xould be confusing the region your in. And its sending you a different rom.

Installing this 4.xx rom even the OTA will brick your device. So obviously dont do that.

To get the OTA for the 9.21, i would recommend installing the 9.19 rom correctly, thn allow the 9.21 update, then flash your modified modem.

But i assume too that flashing the origonal modem may work too. Not completely sure though as i dont k ow how you have your phone setup to get that error.

If it was available in a previous rom, you could try flaahing that old roms modem files, but if you've never had it, and its not supported by your ISP, im not sure.

[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] Patrick Morgan:
You have not installed drivers for fastboot.

If you have, check windows update for a google ADB bridge driver and allow it to update. Fastboot will work again.

If all the drivers are installed correctly and tou still recieve the error,

The problem lies with your usb port, on the phone, or computer, or your usb cable.

Was coming to post that v.8.57 was just pushed via OTA to my NA 5G (1.8GB). This is Android R (11) according to the update notes. I haven't installed it yet so can't comment.

That is what I said. It is A11. And brings back the pubg record feature :) However, you lose your root. Not sure if there is a compatible TWRP for A11 for the device yet.
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] Mikedot:
I just updated to NA 857 last night and I regret it.

All my apps on my desktop have been removed. They are still installed but I can no longer drag and set them on my desktop. Holding the power button to bring up the "Power off/Reset/Emergency" option now completely takes over the screen instead of appearing in a small box on the right side like it used to.

It also installed some kind of web browser called NextWord Browser which randomly displays news pieces and ads, which I never asked for. Not only that, but I can't seem to permanently uninstall this app through regular means.

I don't know if anything else is up with this new update, but I already don't like what this has done to my phone. I want to go back to the previous version and soon.
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] Patrick Morgan:
Aye a fair few bugs reported during the BETA tests last week. you can fix your launcher issue by clearing cache and data in Apps info.

but there are still other bugs that can't be fixed as of yet.

Yeah Its amazing how fast a device becomes a ghost when 1) A newer device is released 2) there are no active devs anymore working on code. 3) the company who released the device almost completely stops supporting it. (take note that the last update to this device was in November last year for those of us not living in China) 6 months of no updates is a quick way to lose interest.

only until Tencent patches it again, and the rom is broken once more. Nubia probably won't update or fix it again. as it will be a cat and mouse kind of setup. and Tencent updates much faster than Nubia. so expect the feature to be broken again soon.

also there is a TWRP for A11. its just really **** right now. you need a OTG drive to flash anything as the internal memory is locked out due to A11 security features.

Anyways tried the new update, as for the reason the homescreen icons keeps coming back i tried this.

1st > Choose Homescreen apps

2nd > go back on using drawer

3rd > restart the phone

4th > try putting the some apps on homescreen

5th > power off, then turn on ur device

this works for me, idk if this will work on you guys.

(After doing this i noticed my apps is stacked on the homescreen the way i putted it, so basically the phone doesn't recognize it right away until u did this step)
