[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] bonczas:
I used AL00 version for couple of months and I could not stand the amount of bloatware and random chinese popups. Two weeks ago I decided to convert it to L29. Now I have normal gapps without the hassle of installing them myself. Google assistant works flawlessly and the most important thing is that the bloatware is gone. I have no problems with banking apps after conversion. I am aware that chinese model gets updates earlier and more frequently but as for me its not worth it. After all support for this phone will be dropped in nearby future. EMUI11 will be the last major update for C432.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] nickb99NZ:
Thanks for your thoughts, appreciated.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] PhoneTechShop:
I have EVR L29 but I even uninstalled all google apps or possible to uninstall
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] jbmc83:
AL00 user here. i made the conscious choice to go the chinese model route, since its the only way to get 8/256GB RAM/Storage config. 5G model is not an option for me due to lack ot headphone jack and smaller battery capacity.

if you know how to do it / research it online, its not a biggie to remove/deactivate all chinese bloatware and install google services yourself, no total conversion needed to global model. this way i get all the pros (ram/storage, early updates), without any cons (smaller battery/no headphone jack in 5G model, no google services, chinese bloatware). happy customer right here :)
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] nickb99NZ:
Nice! Glad it worked out for you.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] PhoneTechShop:
Since AL00 is possible to convert it is better.. You can choose what apos u can install
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] jbmc83:
yeah, depending on what u prefer either option could be better suited for you. the chinese software, aside from faster updates, also includes stuff like call recording or the huawei messaging app that some users might prefer to have.

in general, more choice is always more better :)
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] sbkk:
I saw 4g version on aliexpress 8/256. Does it mean that it is al00 with global firmware or real evr-L29 8/256. I asked cause you wrote that you had to choose chinesse version 8/256
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] jbmc83:
there is no EVR-L29 with 8/256 config, at least not for 4G. so its definitely an AL-00 chinese model that might have a global firmware installed on it.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] sbkk:
That'w what I wanted to know. Then, it looks like they add global rom to evr-al00. I had chinese version before and decided to sell it and now i don't know which one to buy.

BTW. Did you have 6/128 before? Is there any diffefence betwen 6/128 and 8/256 in speed?
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] nickb99NZ:
The EVR-L29 with 6/128 was plenty fast for me, plays the FPS games I want and I never came close to filling up the storage. Even with Amazon, Netflix, Spotify, Audible downloads etc.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] nickb99NZ:
I loved the silver/purple colour of the EVR-AL00 and would have liked to keep it. The project to change the firmware could have been fun, but the uncertainty just put me off. Plus I found another mint EVR-L29 with two years warrantee and full accessories for the same price. So there was no justification to keep it.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] sbkk:
Which one do you have now? Evr-al00 6/128 or 8/256?
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] nickb99NZ:
I sent back the EVR-AL00 which was also 6/128 and traded it for the EVR-L29.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] jbmc83:
nope, never had a 6/128 model, went straight for the 8/256 config. the only situation where u would notice any slowdowns would be if the ram was filled to the brink and the system would have to dump memory or switch to flash storage instead. both unlikely scenarios at this point in time. 6gb ram should be sufficient to handle anything right now.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] Deanro:
Wise choice. I bet your happy with that decision.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] Mark365:
Hi mate, do u have a link to convert AL00 to global. I have the chinese version 6/128.

Thanks.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] nickb99NZ:
Yeah, I never regretted it. Really liked the idea of a new colour 20x in my pocket but economically and time-cost-wise it made no sense. I just got a few dfferent colour cases from Aliexpress for my L29 and change them around with the wallpaper when I feel like something new.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] AzureSleeper:

As jio set top box really sucks.

Thanks for help and make this thing happen.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] narenkram:
"It really sucks" I know the feeling. With updates, they have rendered the Jio STB completely useless.

- Unable to play movies from an external device - [Jio Photos app logo overlay]

- Unable to stream from the media server.

- No possibility of other app or sideloading apps.

- Poor cable operator support for Live TV

Someone, please make a Rom for Jio STB.

Is Netflix working with this rooted SlimBox ATV Rom?

I alwasys get the error -13 and my research results says that it is a problem with the rooted device. So i unrooted it in the slimbox settings but the error appear neverthless.

I also insalled a non-ATV-version and could open this in the APP-Drawer but i can't navigate with the delivered remote control.

Are there any solutions for this? I have the paid account for netflix and i really want to use it.

Thanks

Thank you.

@Beerle @jimenis

Hello ..are these 2 netflix APKs ATV version or NON ATV version please
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] jimenis:
Hi , they are atv versions
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] hannah187:
Thank you for your response. I now have 2 more questions.

1. Do these apps show HD content in full HD or restricted to SD (resolution 960 x 540)?

2. I assume the Android TV Box needs to be un-rooted for these apps to run. Is this true, please?

Kindest regards

Hannah
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] jimenis:
Hi , I believe the first plays at 950x480 rooted or unrooted . The second should play in full hd dependent on widevine level of the box on mine which has L3 widevine so plays at 960x 480 again rooted or unrooted ... Just a note standard Netflix for me is playing at 960x540 on my new chromecast and I can see no difference whatsoever on my n5 max which is not certified
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] hannah187:
Interresting.

For both of these Netflix apps, I was able to install them in the UNROOTED box, but for the rooted boxes, these apps install and give an error saying it cannot connect to Netflix service.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] jimenis:
Hiya , just checked my n5 max which is rooted and mine connects and is working, I will check some other boxes later .I'am using a slimbox rom on that box ... Interesting indeed, is it possible the method of root maybe causing it ? Anyhow will let you know when I get to test others
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] jimenis:
Checked another definitely Netflix working with root... Box is running another slimbox rom
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] hannah187:

[Wing, P4350 ROM development] live4nothing:
Hey guys,

I am working on my first rom. After going through many readings from other sub-forum (hermes and kaiser) as well as Ivan's cooking class, I made my first rom using the Wing stock rom. After deleting un-used packages and files, I can sucessfully build the os.nb and converted it to .nbh file. But when I tried to flash it back to the wing, I got a error saying my RUU cannot used to flash the device, but I have been using this same RUU for many roms. I attached the screenshot, please take a look and help me debug it. It's my first rom :( Many thanks
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] papamopps:
go and try when you buld .nbh to set device "herald" but in section "version" write "test" not the numbers that are there by default.....

hope that helps.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
Yep, looks like you didn't set it to Herald when you built it.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] live4nothing:
Thanks. You guys are right. I can flash my rom now. However, it stuck in the primary splash and does not response to the stylus. Any idea how to fix? Again, really appriciate any help.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
This is part of the fun of being a cook, figuring out what mistakes we made. :p

There could have been 1 million different things you could have done that made it not boot up. It could have been something you removed or something you added. What kitchen are you cooking with? (It could also be that you didn't relocate all the modules if you're using something like hypercore.)
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] live4nothing:
I am using hypercore. Can you point me to a reference to use hypercore or maybe an better kitchen for new cooks?
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
Either use G'Reloc for hypercore, or use Bepe's Extended Kitchen for the Herald. The latter option would be the best.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] live4nothing:
After re-doing the delete packages part, I got the rom flashed into my wing, booted, but nothing working. I mean windows started, top and bottom bars also loaded, but radio not working, nothing reponses. One thing, the screen seem to flicker a little bit. I notice the boot speed is super fast (really really fast) as in none of the hardware drivers is initialized at all. I am clueless as of this point. Any more help?

@Ivan:

Thanks man. Since I started with hypercore and kind of familiar with it already, I would like to stick with it. Can you show me how to use G'Reloc? Thanks
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
Just drop the file into your build folder and run it. (Assuming you're using a SYS folder that belongs to your phone.) Bepe's kitchen is great because it does a lot of fixing up for you automatically. It's not a competitor's kitchen, it's a MUCH newer kitchen. I use both. I use Hypercore to take Herald ROMs appart and for different tools in it and Bepe's kitchen to put my ROMs together (and a kaiser kitchen to take appart kaiser, diamond and other ROMs) and I also use my own kitchens which are mostly based out of Bepe's kitchens.

The whole boot speed and nothing working means that you deleted things packages you shouldn't have.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] live4nothing:
I run G'Reloc, but it ask for slot 1, slot 2, ... Do you mind explain them to me? I tried to just click "do it" with the default values, and it showed that it relocated 265 out of 368. I built the rom and flashed it to my wing, but it stuck in the boot splash now. Thank for the help
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
Those are taken from a folder in your SYS folder. It sounds to me like you deleted a lot of packages that are essential to WM6/6.1. You can't delete everything that SOUNDS like you don't use. Also, the SYS folder HAS to be from a Herald UNLESS you ported it. If you didn't port it, then the values on slot 1 and slot 2 will be wrong.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] live4nothing:
I followed your guide to take the SYS from the Kaiser's rom. Here's what I did. I run buildOS.exe, then I run G'reloc, then I run createROM.bat. Did I do it right?
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
Which guide? My guide? You run G'Reloc first and THEN buildOS, or else you're building the OS BEFORE fixing the files that you need to BUILD the OS.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] live4nothing:
The sequence part, I guess on my own. I meant I follow your guide on porting the SYS and XIP on lesson 4 and 5. I did not even try G'Reloc in the first place because I did not know I have to do it. Btw, thank again man, you're such a big help to me.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
The reason why the guide was failing and I hadn't mentioned G'Reloc in the walkthrough is because the walkthrough was made for Bepe's Extended Kitchen. No problem with the help. :p I remember when I was learning, no one answered, so I figured I'd give something back.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] live4nothing:
working with OEM

Hey Ivan,

thank to your help, I was be able to cook some roms with the newer SYS and XIP build. During the process, just to learn how to port SYS and XIP, I borrowed your OEM folder (I copied the whole OEM folder form your JustMine kitchen). Now I learned how to port SYS and XIP and get them working, I want to play with my own OEM. Otherwise, I would not be cooking if I copied your OEM. Here what I did:

1) Since I can't find any base OEM folder for herald or wing here, I used hypercore to extract the OEM from the official stock Wing stock rom.

2) I copied the whole OEM without deleting junks (because it failed when I deleted stuffs before. So I want to ensure that I got the OEm working before start deleting stuffs) to bepe kitchen

3) build the rom

Here's what happen:

When i used the stock OEM, my wing can boot into WM, but it skip the screen align, setting timezone and setting password section. AFter that, it say my pout.exe (or something like that) and repllog.exe is currupted. The green light indicating the radio is blinking, but the radio doesn't pick up anytihing, said no service.

If I replace your OEM, everything works fine. So I test my OEM by building it with the stock SYS and XIP, it also works fine. Did I missed anything? Thanks for all your help, man.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ttran001:
This is great news, we have a new herald cook on the way.

[Wing, P4350 ROM development] live4nothing:
Dude Ivan, you are awsome. I sucessfully created a ROM using my ported SYS, XIP and my own OEM. Again, thank you very much for guiding me through the whole process. I am thinking release it as a lite rom so everyone here can enjoy the newest build if they wish to. Before I can do it, I want to do some tweaks to it. So can you so me how to cook registry entries into the ROM? Thanks
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
You've got two options. RGU's and PROVXML's. You're better off setting up a package with an RGU that has all your registry keys. RGU's are nothing more than reg files. ^_^ And I'm glad it worked.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] live4nothing:
I know how to convert a cab to a package, but how to make a package with nothing but a RGU file? Can you again, piont me to the right direction. I notice that whenever there is a RGU, it has an .DSM file. Can you also point me to some threads relate to these matters. I can do all the reading.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
Just go here, generate a UUID, take that UUID and create a file named that UUID .RGU and one with that UUID .DSM now edit the RGU. If you want the package to be selectable in BuildOS (instead of building automatically like most of the SYS folder does) then also make an Option.xml (open one from another package and you'll figure out how to make one.)

Camera works normally. Though, it is unable to record videos with third party apps like Snapchat, WhatsApp & Instagram. Just a heads up for avid social media users like myself. (Screenshot below) My workaround is to record videos with the camera app and upload it directly.

QR Code scanner within stock camera app also unable to work. I installed Barcode Scanner+ thru playstore and works fine.
