Do you have any plans to make it official??

Tried to install, but no luck. The rom gives immediate errors :

Updater process ended with ERROR: 1

Error installing zip RevengeOS-4.0-R-UNOFFICIAL-miatoll-20201101-1329.zip

No idea how to fix this :)
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) ROMs, Ke] ashir734734:
The way I fix it is

Flash xiaomi official rom

Boot into system once complete setup and then flash pbrp recovery

Try again to flash rom this time hopefully you won't get any error

it's 11 why description still Q because the template not update yet from revengeos team

I have a problemi with my SD card it dowsnt work on this rom
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) ROMs, Ke] amirizad_7436:
1_ Kindly change them

You are using Android!

2-Known problem at R roms cuz it uses different things to read your information and should take a backup and format that under rom

It was a solution which a other dev said on other thread
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) ROMs, Ke] DarthJabba9:
It reads my exFAT formatted MicroSD without any problem. In fact, it is, so far, the only Android 11 ROM that has succeeded in doing this.

PS: I am talking here about the "20201105-2224" release. The earlier one did not boot at all.

Does this ROM support signature spoofing? I would love to give it a try
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) ROMs, Ke] aceventura82:
Hello,

Thanks for this rom, looks great.

I have installed it and it's working fine.

Just one question, does it support signature spoofing?

After installing MicroG it says the it does support Signature spoofing, but there is one more step needed

Normally in other roms there is a option in setting to activate the signature spoofing, but cannot find it here
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) ROMs, Ke] aceventura82:
I got signature spooffing workig, just needed to tick the option in MicroG and asked the Permission

Great Rom

thanks

PS: looks like Styles & wallpapers are not working, not showing in settings, and when click the app icon from the launcher the app crash

Can anyone confirm these feaures in this ROM [are they available]:

- Screen off power button hold torch

- Double tap to wake DT2W

- Call recording
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) ROMs, Ke] sunil1304:
This rom rebootsa lot.. i think it maybe due to ambient gestures... Or kernel..

Anyone who has same issue?
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) ROMs, Ke] :
Mine did the same thing. I thought it was maybe because I never upgraded the firmware to 12. Mine was doing it once it restarted and the screen came on and then after 30 secs or whatever time you've got it set up to and the screen turned off it restarted/rebooted instead
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) ROMs, Ke] SebastianLodz79:
I dont get something.

it says it is unified Joyeuse/Miatoll but the starting script has a stop procedure:

can be removed to avoid error during installation on RN 9 Pro Global? code name joyeuse_globall

thanks in advance for the asnwer.

And I am running RevengeOs on poco m2 pro(gram). Don't know which version u downloaded.
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) ROMs, Ke] SebastianLodz79:
that's the problem. it shows it is for joyeuse but it has the abort script for joyeuse

really having question why it is so. or second answer, shall i remove that line and try to install?
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) ROMs, Ke] ghostranger047:
No you shouldn't remove that line. It means if not curtana/excaliber/gram/joyeuse then print the error message.

That line does not mean: if joyeuse, then print the error.
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) ROMs, Ke] SebastianLodz79:
thanks. now is clear.

i miss any custom rom for RN 9 Pro.

Miui drives mi crazy.

i would like / dream to have a ViperOne rom (an old rom for HTC One).
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) ROMs, Ke] ghostranger047:
Yum Miui is crazy.

Btw, u can try Havoc/corvus. They r awesome roms as well.

i managed to install the Havoc but it was pretty buggy (not possible to update 11 apps).

Hi I have Redmi Note 9 Pro Indian Variant (curtana) I am on stock rom.

Can someone please help me install this Custom Rom as I really like RevengeOS as I was using it in my previous device too

PS I have my bootloader locked and I am on stock recovery
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) ROMs, Ke] RayDeemer:
1. You must unlock your bootloader.

2. You must flash an alternative bootloader - I prefer LRTWRP.

3. You should read the first Post under the point "Installation".
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) ROMs, Ke] SebastianLodz79:
i would recommend you OrangeFox Recovery. it works well including backup.

but follow this procedure

- Install autoinstall LRTWRP

- In TWRP click on Wipe, then on Format Data -> type "yes" (this will decrypt the phone)

- Now you need to restart the phone to TWRP (in TWRP click on the Reboot button, then click on the Recovery button) !!! ( important, otherwise it will not work)

-In TWRP, Install the OrangeFox recovery

-Restart to System

- make a backup

- do what you wish (install custom, root...)

i am running the Miui 12 with root and with root uninstaller i cleaned a bit MIUI. i blocked their software as much as i could.
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) ROMs, Ke] :

I've recently flashed RevengeOS 4.0 in my joyeuse device and it did successfully. However, I always keep having a message saying "Android Setup keeps stopping" after flashing it with NikGApps (A11 - 20201214 Full), I also can't seem to login with my Google Account.

I decided to do another clean flash with this ROM but this time with FlameGApps (A11 - 20201214 Full). I successfully logged in my Google Account but I still encounter the same message, "Android Setup keeps stopping". How can I fix this?
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) ROMs, Ke] ghostranger047:

[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) ROMs, Ke] ghostranger047:
No GCam not working on the latest build, making it a useless rom.
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) ROMs, Ke] The Progen:
I tried for many hours to get Resurrection Remix and that Pixel something ROM to install but couldn't. This ROM saved the night in the end after like 7 - 8 hours of being stuck in fastboot or recovery. Boots up pretty quickly. Almost nothing in extra customizations but at least it's not unstable like MIUI 12 where my screen dpi kept changing on its own from the lower dpi back to its default every few hours. Freaking annoying.
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) ROMs, Ke] The Progen:
It works fine for me. I seem to lose screen sensitivity once in a while but locking and unlocking the screen corrects that.

[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) ROMs, Ke] Jas Grover:
The best way to flash gapps is to clean flash rom, make sure it boots then without stepping ahead, reboot back to recovery for flashing gapps, always wipe caches, also make sure that you downloaded the correct version of Gapps, be alert with Q10 & R11, I suggest rather going on to settings and seeing android version cuz this thread had issues with it if its Q or R!

slow update
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) ROMs, Ke] The Progen:
It's a good ROM I must say but it has some very annoying bugs like if you do a hard reboot, you lose your personal settings, the settings icon on the quick screen no longer works and you might lose mobile data too. No matter how many times you try to connect, the mobile data doesn't work anymore so you need to reinstall the ROM. Other than that and a few minor bugs, it's a good ROM. I went back to it after trying a few other ROMS because it was the only Android 11 AOSP ROM where Filmic Pro worked and the default gallery wasn't so annoying and ugly. Some ROMs don't like you messing with their default apps and will hang the moment you do and reboot.

Are you on Android 10 or 11? In A11 you will get stuck in a bootloop. If u really want magisk u can install magisk Canary but safetynet will fail.

I installed twrp and tried to flash root but it's not working. Also fingerprint and other things are not working so want to flash stock rom and recovery and then lock the bootloader.

[Samsung Galaxy A50 Guides, News, & Discussion] Lavire69:
You can flash stock rom with ODIN. There are plenty of sites that have latest firmware.

you can install Stock rom in a50 by odin but remember one thing after installing stock rom and lock again bootloader, your mobile will show warning msg in some apps like Samsung Health, secure Folder, Pay mini and in some more apps and you can't use these apps anymore in your mobile without root and if you root again your mobile then UPI payment not working anymore in your mobile so think about my points and take a best decision bcz i m facing same problem when i install stock rom on {ROM}{A50}{OneUI-2.5} InfinityOS rom.

Hye guys,

So i just got myself an xperia 5 II XQ - AS72 256 5g dual sim variant from HK.

I noticed that it's still on the august 1st , 2020 security update and on my xperia 1 II it's already on October.

Was wondering all of y'all are also on the same security patch / firmware ? As it's kinda odd for it to still be backdated.

Current firmware version : 58.0.A.10.3

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] realpapz:
Are you just wiping data or "format" data too? Always do "clean install" Wipe dalvik, cache, data, then format your data. It may very helpful when you're going to another rom and minimalize any error behaviour.
[Google Pixel 3a XL Questions & Answers] DoubleFnJ:
I have a supposed 'unlocked' pixel from ebay, sealed in the box. A warranty replacement that was never used. While trying to turn on OEM Unlocking, it is greyed out and says "Unavailable on carrier-locked devices." I've tried everything I can think of or find online but it remains greyed out. It's updated to android 11. Unless someone has some advice here I'm going to have to sell this device as it is useless to me.

I only wanted it if I could unlock the bootloader which it seems I cannot.

What disclosures should I make to anyone wanting to purchase this device? Is it SIM locked or just OEM locked? Can this be used with any carrier as far as normal phone usage? I have put the IMEI into Ting and US Mobiles device checkers and they come back reporting the phone is ready to be used but I don't know how accurate that is. Could the previous owner still have the device listed in their account somewhere (Verizon or Google) which renders the phone unusable?

Does this only work on the Pixel 3? I couldn't find any similar option for the Pixel 3a XL posted.

From https://joshspicer.com/root-pixel-1
Open terminal in adb directory and type adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.android.phone

Thanks for any advice you can offer me.
[Google Pixel 3a XL Questions & Answers] adm1jtg:
As far as I know there is no way to unlock a Verizon 3axl. If it was Google then it would not have the option greyed out. The person who sold it to you may have meant carrier unlocked.
[Google Pixel 3a XL Questions & Answers] DoubleFnJ:
It was actually Sprint. The seller contacted Sprint and said they would unlock it. Somehow they are going to do it without me having to send it to them. So, that seems like just a SIM unlock to me? I've never had to have one unlocked before. I will report back afterwards. I had to download a virtual SIM to first activate it on Sprint's network. Anyone else go through this with Sprint?

From now on, if I want to purchase a phone off eBay I'm going to have to get the seller to show me the unlock option. That's not going to be easy as most sellers won't know how.
