[Lenovo Z6 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] &(*):
After reading the instructions a bit more carefully I notice I will need to unlock the bootloader before applying the firmware patches. Only concern now is the instructions don't mention installing Lineage from an SD card. Does this build not support exFAT or the microSD card within recovery?
[Lenovo Z6 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] ThE_MarD:
Heyyo @&(*) , please check the first post. I have provided instructions for locked and unlocked bootloader and for both Lineage Recovery and TWRP.

We support exfat for any storage medium and both Lineage Recovery and TWRP support micro SDcard and USB OTG.
[Lenovo Z6 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] &(*):
Good to know that TWRP & Lineage Recovery support the external sd. Lineage Recovery with locked bootloader was really buggy and barely functional; TWRP on the other hand is fully functional *(with a locked bootloader). Two questions: can I also root it or will ABL flag Boot upon any modifications? Can TWRP be upgraded to 3.6 or is that only for an unlocked bootloader due to the recent kernel rebase?

*Both questions seem to answer themselves (modified kernel means bootloader will need to be unlocked).
[Lenovo Z6 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] ThE_MarD:
@&(*) you can root even with locked bootloader. I haven't tried Magisk in years so you'll have to ask around for proper guides on that. You can also update recovery or even swap to and from Lineage Recovery and TWRP so it's up to you which one and which version you want to use.

The only thing with a locked bootloader is you have to be very careful to not break your recovery is all. Don't accidentally flash a boot image to your recovery partition as an example. Only ever flash a recovery image to your recovery partition.

Otherwise? You can manually flash a recovery image via adb root

adb root
adb push *location of image*.img /sdcard/
adb shell dd if=/sdcard/*name*.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/recovery
[Lenovo Z6 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] &(*):
Having root with a locked bootloader is a real treat. Would like to thank everyone that made this possible.

I notice boot is a big sluggish and am thinking there is a more recent kernel than what is running currently with the 11.5.XXX build (even after firmware patches). Another user and myself were wondering how to find a 12.5.365 build as there is not a bundle anywhere in sight and OTA doesn't retrieve any update either, would you know? If not, will there be an upgraded boot/kernel soon for Lineage and other open source builds?
[Lenovo Z6 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] ThE_MarD:
@&(*) , for the device firmware of 12.5.365 please refer to the first post as I have the necessary links there for downloading it. That zip can be flashed in either LOS Recovery or TWRP.

As for the sluggish boot animation? There seems to be something going on with our surfaceflinger vs our blobs... tbh I'm unsure of the fix as it is a system-side issue and not our device. Maybe one day I'll be able to figure it out...
[Lenovo Z6 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] &(*):
I applied the patches, incuding 12.5.365. I'm just wondering if boot for build 12.5.365 has a revised kernel for 11, or are both 11.5 and 12.5 the same kernel?
[Lenovo Z6 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] ThE_MarD:
@&(*) the slow boot animation is not kernel related as it was slow before and after the kernel rebase. As mentioned above, it is surfaceflinger related, so something on the system-side.
[Lenovo Z6 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] &(*):
What version is the kernel rebase (uname -r)? I have no reference as to where to find any kernel updates other than evolution x. Will Einar's kernel run Lineage as well (assuming so)? Usually Lineage will include a boot.img which is sometimes both boot and recovery, but all that is available is a recovery with the Lineage build for this device. Are there any updates for the kernel not posted on this thread?
[Lenovo Z6 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] ThE_MarD:
This is the kernel that we use on LineageOS 18.1 official builds

GitHub - LineageOS/android_kernel_lenovo_sm8150

Contribute to LineageOS/android_kernel_lenovo_sm8150 development by creating an account on GitHub.

github.com

Since 18.1 is Android 11? I'd recommend using only A11 kernels and I cannot guarantee other kernels will work as I haven't heard of anyone testing different kernels on LOS.

For boot containing both boot and recovery? That is A/B partitioned devices that don't have a dedicated recovery partition. Newer A/B devices have dedicated recovery_a and recovery_b partitions. I think this change happened on devices that launched with Android 11 or higher.
[Lenovo Z6 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] &(*):
Where does the kernel rebase come into play if there isn't a boot.img for install with LineageOS?

Another issue: I'm noticing there is no way to get a call to output on the earpiece during conversation, only the loudspeaker. There is a fix for it posted here: https://review.lineageos.org/c/LineageOS/android_device_oneplus_sdm845-common/+/326701/ . Chipset is different, but I imagine fixing the output during a call issue will be something similar. Please have a look when you get a chance; otherwise, the Lineage build you have put together is excellent.
[Lenovo Z6 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] ThE_MarD:
LineageOS uses payload.bin for newer versions just like AOSP does. WIthin payload.bin is all the partition images.

Do you mean volume adjustment for the earpiece? Looking at our ZUI 12.5.365 stock ROM it seems Lenovo doesn't define any custom value. It could be that Lenovo run a custom volume curve which we may need to also do. I'll try to check into it when I have the time.

Tbh? I focus my efforts on LineageOS 19 now as I don't have a lot of spare time to work on my Android devices, so I can add them to my KLOS 19 test builds in the future if I come up with a solution.
[Lenovo Z6 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] &(*):
I forgot all about the .bin bundling for installing roms since AOSP 11. Thanks for the clarification there.

I managed to fix the sound issue always coming out of the loudspeaker instead of defaulting to the earpiece. I had to remove AudioFX and wipe cache and dalvik to get the mixer_paths profile back to default. Thanks for the heads-up about 19.1; I'm not that enthused as it will require an unlocked bootloader, unlike 18.1.
[Lenovo Z6 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Josean71:
Hello, I know you don't like that we ask when a rom is published, but approximate date, please. Don't get mad, when does LOS 19 come out?
[Lenovo Z6 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] ThE_MarD:
@Josean71 , tbh? I have zero idea when LOS 19.1 goes official lol, I'm just a device maintainer. I'm not part of the LOS team so they probably know when they want to ship. I'm very happy with how zippo and heart are, so I'll probably soon add them to the LOS 19.1 ship device list. (y)

The only real achilles heel is the locked bootloader ignoring vbmeta disabled state... so locked bootloader probably won't work for us oof...
[Lenovo Z6 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] SalesPC-BG:
Hello, I have a problem with the flash of twrp locked bootloader, it says that everything is installed normally, the phone restarts but it is still with the stock recovery.

Lenovo does not send me the file so I can unlock the bootloader, so I want to install the rum with the bootloader locked. The stock firmware is 11.0.405 ST. Please help :)
[Lenovo Z6 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] ThE_MarD:
Heyyo @SalesPC-BG, please follow the guide from the installation instructions. It might take a day or three for Lenovo to send the unlock sn image
[Lenovo Z6 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] SalesPC-BG:
hello again :) from lenovo I'm waiting for the second week I sent a request twice. this is a log from the installation of twrp through QFIL
[Lenovo Z6 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] ThE_MarD:
Heyyo, oh, I just realized you're trying the QFIL TWRP locked bootloader method. Once QFIL is complete? Please immediately reboot to recovery. Hold down power and volume up and from bootloader menu select reboot to recovery. Rebooting to system will just cause ZUI to overwrite the recovery partition with ZUI recovery. Once you successfully booted to TWRP? It will write itself permanently there so ZUI can't remove it.
[Lenovo Z6 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] SalesPC-BG:
Hello, things don't happen to me :) after installing twrp with the volume down button and power I enter the bootlader then I give a restart recovery, the phone restarts and returns me to the bootlader.
[Lenovo Z6 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] ThE_MarD:
@SalesPC-BG tbh I think that unlock sn.img is universal, so I'll just share mine.

[Samsung Galaxy A71 Questions & Answers] Sloobot:
If you rooted your phone using magisk download the latest firmware from samfw or any other site transfer the AP file to your phone patch it using magisk and then use ADB to pull it because if you just drag and drop the file from your phone to your pc it will probably lose some things on the way so download ADB and use the command adb pull "location of the patched file" don't use " after that when you flash the new firmware with odin in the AP slot select the patched file it would be named magisk_patched and some random letters, in the rest of the slots use the normal files from the firmware you downloaded and thats it.

A few questions using Blue tooth a Tomtom and SPB Mobile Shell.

1. Can I adjust the font sizes in the various screens, reason, I wear glasses to read but not generally and some of the words are so tiny and I would like to be able to make the fonts larger ( standard on my old blackberry).

2. When I used to be on a call a white box flag would appear to tell you that you were connected, now ( I loaded sbp shell ) it is in a very small line on the screen and I have to really LOOK for it ( see above) to see if the phone is actually dialling etc.

I have a 710 Tomtom and the blue tooth is not properly compatibile, in that if I try to copy my phone book to the Tomtom it wipes the TT memory, TT say it is not compatible with Palm , I thought blue tooth was blue tooth, any suggestions??

Hi Guys and Girls,

So I've just bought a 2010 Ford Focus and purchased a radio from the good old gumtree out of a salvage motor, mondeo I believe as it came with a mondeo labeled canbus decoder.

The radio is brilliant just a tad slow as it only has 1GB of RAM im guessing.

I've attached a few pictures of the unit and it's specs and software versions from the about page and wondered if anyone could fully identify it and point me in the direction of any custom ROMS or updates that might enhance the performance/sound of the device?

Many thanks!

[MTCD Software Development] pythoner:
Its a px3 device. Maybe the best you could do is change the coreboard for a px5 or px30 if possible. 1gb ram is really limiting and the px3 is maybe 5 years old and not that powerful.

You can try roms for px3, but don't expect miracles.
[MTCD Software Development] Lowery91:
Would it be as simple as just ordering a px5 or px30 board and it working after installing it?(I've looked this up before) also should I opt for one with android 9 installed as I don't want Bluetooth compatibility issues which I've read are with android 10 if i remember correctly?
[MTCD Software Development] Lowery91:
@pythoner Could you also please point me to where I could find a suitable coreboard for my device as a lot of them on aliexpress state that some will not support the current bluetooth or WiFi device I have installed?

Many thanks!
[MTCD Software Development] Lowery91:
@pythoner

I have also discovered my device has the MD725 Bluetooth module installed and would this work or could I find a PX5 coreboard and downgrade its android version to say 7 for it to work again as I don't want to lose this functionality.

Thanks
[MTCD Software Development] typos1:
Depends what type of MD725 it is and what Android version you use.
[MTCD Software Development] Lowery91:
I'm unsure as to which version it is as it's current installed in my car? Would I have to take it out and open it up to find out? Also the android version is 7. Many thanks @typos1
[MTCD Software Development] typos1:
Yes, I know you have Android 7. No opening required - install a terminal and type : getprop bt.md725.type and press return/enter, if its type 1 it works with Android 8 and 9, if its type 2 it wont.

Its very rare to have a 1Gb RAM version of a Nougat RK3188/PX3 SoM, someone may have even installed Nougat on an old RK3188/PX3 Lollipop 1Gb RAM SoM, but the usual 2Gb RAM Nougat RK3188/PX3 SoMs are not slow (theyre not exactly really fast but theyre perfectly useable), so if you can get hold of one of them its worth considering.
[MTCD Software Development] pythoner:
Aliexpress has px30 and px5 coreboards. But if you consider that, please open the unit before buying something to make sure that it fits.
