Finally, I want to go back to stock ROM. I've done a emergency recovery, but the bootloader remains unlocked. Is there a way to lock it again?

Using "fastboot oem lock" gives the error:

FAILED (remote: 'Command not allowed')

fastboot: error: Command failed

Using fastboot oem relock <code>:

FAILED (remote: 'root type is risk')

Thanks a lot for the installation guide, it worked great except for one thing but I can't figure out what I did wrong: I get a "Installation Failed! Looks like Storage space is full!" when trying to install NikGapps basic or even core (from https://sourceforge.net/projects/nikgapps/files/Releases/NikGapps-R/21-Apr-2022/).

Before the error I see in the log:

/system available size: 849996

Toral available size: 849996

Gapps Size: 31980

I did follow the pre-install instructions, however the folder names were not exactly "vndk27" and "vndk28" but "com.android.vndk.v27" and "com.android.vndk.v28".

edit: @Sleeepy2 suggested me to install litegapps (from https://xdaforums.com/t/rom-huawei-11-leaos-lineage-18-1-for-huawei-device.4371629/) instead and it worked fine.

I've installed lineage-18.1-20220523-UNOFFICIAL-prague following the initial guide and it seems to work except:

did not had to unlock bootloader again as I think that FBlock checkbox was checked when I did the procedure one year ago. FRP Unlocked and Phone Unlocked showed in red but it worked

had to install Magisk through TWRP

any chromium-based brower will freeze, only Mozilla Firefox is stable (tried swapping WebView with the one from Google but system will not start afterwards, had to factory reset)

(+) tried installing WebView Manager (Magisk module) but instead it installed this Bromite browser together with its own WebView (which it tried to set as default but failed): other browsers still crash but this new one works good and is similar to Brave browser

Netflix does not start and freezes at logo even after making SafetyNet pass and hiding it with Magisk (it shows up in PlayStore). It will crash eventually giving that error popup

(+) tablet seemed a bit slow so I've used SmartPack to change cpu governatos. There are actually 2 of them: one for BIG cluster which I've changed to powersave and the other for LITTLE which I've set to performance (so many cores for only 2GB of RAM....such a waste)

... what else to test?

Perhaps missing or wrong drivers?

I use Minimal ADB Fastboot and Universal ADB Driver installed. I also have HiSuite installed, they have a fastboot exe (located in C:\Program Files (x86)\HiSuite\hwtools) you could try

Perhaps the stock ROM is too old or new?

I had the lastest MIUI firmware available for this tablet: GS2-W09 8.0.0.371(OCEC432)

Perhaps locked bootloader?

If it bootloops you could try restoring the kernel.img and ramdisk.img prior to flashing custom system img as I have dicovered here

I've just figured out hot to get Netflix addon (from CastagnaIT repo) working in Kodi.

Before AltairFR's 8-Huawei-AGS-FixPreav-A-v1.1-signed.zip patch the addon would just freeze when trying to open but now it starts ok but some settings are needed to get it working:

1) force L3 (after an error message said so) by going to Kodi's addon settings for Netflix:

Expert->ESN / Widewine settings: check "Force L3"

2) audio ok, subtitles ok but blank video stream:

Expert->InputStream Adaptive Settings->Expert: enable "Don't use secure decoder if possible"

I also played with various less important settings like:

Expert -> Limit video stream resolution to: Full HD 1080p

Expert -> Force HDCP 2.2 video stream: enabled

Expert -> InputStream Adaptive settings

-> Max Res general decode : 1080p

-> Max Res secure decoder: 1080p (shouldn't be used anyway because we disabled it above)

-> Override HDCP status: enabled

-> Ignore Display Resolution: enabled

But I don't think they make a difference and I have little knowledge on what they actually do.

When I run the flashboot command it says it installs successfully, but then after flashoot reboot it simply boots back to original system, any assistance please?

EDIT:

After relocking tablet and unlocking again, magically it booted into TWRP, now I find myself in a TWRP LOOP I cant get to fastboot or any other mode it only boots to TWRP any suggestions?

[Huawei MediaPad T5 Guides, News, & Discussion] AltairFR:
For no network

- Check your APN settings

- Put a PIN code on your SIM card

- Start in airplane mode and wait 2 minutes for the network to stabilize

- Finally, pass the patch to put your phone in mono-sim

Of course you do the actions one after the other and you check each time if this has not corrected the problem. You don't do it all at once :-)

Hi, is it possible to go back to the official recovery and then to the official rom? I've been trying unsuccessfully for two days.

What is the correct procedure?

Thanks in advance
[Huawei MediaPad T5 Guides, News, & Discussion] davidepa87:
ho risolto tutto da solo.

Debrikkato e reinstallato il sistema originale
[Huawei MediaPad T5 Guides, News, & Discussion] darksideTR:
hi please can you share how you solved it ?
[Huawei MediaPad T5 Guides, News, & Discussion] davidepa87:
Prima di tutto bisogna rimettere la recovery originale e rom ufficiale tramite procedura da foto allegate.( fallirà ma è importante poiché va a ripristinare almeno le partizioni originali e toglie eventuale root)

Dopodiché provare a fare wipe data e cache che fallirà. Fa nulla poiché al riavvio del tablet dopo wipe data e cache (lo schermo resta nero) bisogna giocare con il ponticello sulla scheda madre di continuo ( connetti e disconnetti ad intermittenza) tenendo aperti sia potato sia l’adb minimal ( con potato risblocchi il bootloader da capo e contemporaneamente con adb carichi la recovery twrp). Se non lavori con i due programmi contemporaneamente sarà molto dura. Io ho fatto così e funziona sempre.

Adesso hai il tablet debrikkato.

Facendo così sblocchi un mondo, puoi ripristinare la rom originale modificata che si trova in rete (Huawei MediaPad T5 AGS2-L09 hw eu HLRCF Agassi2-L09B 8.0.0.259(OCEC432) Firmware EMUI8.0 05015GLW [androidhost.ru]) oppure mettere qualsiasi rom tu voglia compatibile.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

First of all you need to restore the original recovery and official rom via procedure procedure from the attached photos. (It will fail but it is important since it restores at least the original partitions and removes any root)

After that try to wipe data and cache which will fail. It does nothing because when you restart the tablet after wipe data and cache (the screen remains black) you have to play with the jumper on the motherboard continuously (connect and disconnect intermittently) keeping both potato and minimal adb open (with potato you unlock the bootloader all over again and at the same time with adb upload twrp recovery). If you don't work with both programs at the same time it will be very tough. I've done this and it always works.

You now have the debricked tablet.

Doing so unlock a world, you can restore the original modified rom found on the net (Huawei MediaPad T5 AGS2-L09 hw eu HLRCF Agassi2-L09B 8.0.0.259 (OCEC432) Firmware EMUI8.0 05015GLW [androidhost.ru]) or put any rom you want compatible.

Goog Morning everyone,

Sorry for my bad english, i try to explain my problem with easy words.

i have installed last version of LineageOS and it look amazing, compared to the stock version but i have a problem.

I try this Custom ROM because with the Stock one i can't use anymore some apps like Netflix, Disney+ and others.

It told me that my Android 8.0 was to old so i install Android 11 with LineageOS .

Now i am a similar problem, when i go on Play Store and find Netflix app, it tells me that the device is not supported so i decide to install an old version like 6.26 but it dont work, it remains in Logo with infinity load and after that crash.

Reading and old post from AltairFR i try to install 8-Huawei-AGS-FixPreav-A-v1.1-signed.zip but the link is no longer available.

There is anyone that find a solution for this problem or i need to definitely change my tablet.

Thank you.

I would have liked to install LOS18.1 on my MediaPad T5 as well, but the risk of a broken display when opening the device seemed too great. Instead, I debloated it via ADB and I am pleased that it has become much smoother and consumes less battery. For my purposes, internet research and internet radio with Bluetooth speakers, it is enough ;-)

Still, many thanks to the developers who make it possible to keep the older devices younger and fresher!

[Huawei MediaPad T5 Guides, News, & Discussion] micw:
Hello,

I have installed the latest build, using this tutorial. After installation, all screen elements are incredible large and the hardware buttons are always at the side. I think it is because of the fact that no screen density is set in build.prop. So the system defaults to the default density (480 dpi) which is way too much.

Unfortunately, I did not found a way to change it. In TWRP, I cannot edit build.prop. Even with system mounted RW, i get "permission denied".

Would you mind to provide a build that contains a build.prop with a proper dpi setting (~220 dpi should be fine for that device).

Edit: I tried with "DPI changer (root)" and figured out that 280 dpi looks "normal" on that device.

Also, adb should be "secure" and the fingerprint pop-ups should not be disabled.

Kind regards,

Michael.

Yes but you need to migrate to Android 9 which is somewhat risky to install. Search for the HarmonyOS procedure and stay on Android 9. That will make up the tablet able to boot any a/b ROM, so technically any ROM you choose could fit

I have installed pixel experience plus custom ROM and OrangeFox recovery on my Redmi Note 5 Pro. I'm looking to give away/sell my phone in the future now that I have a new phone. However, I don't know if I should remove all of them and return to stock ui, i.e. MIUI and stock recovery(no idea about reselling a phone like that).

My concern is that MIUI sucks and PE+ Is just very clean, while OF Recovery has a lot of functionality and someone who doesn't know about recovery won't bother booting into recovery :( I wanna satisfy the next user but idk if they'd understand.

[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] twistedumbrella:
Go to Armory Crate -> Console

Enable System lighting

Click the Advanced Settings option

If "Edit lighting" is greyed out, make sure to enable "Sync with phone" under Lighting synchronization.

When prompted, select "Create" and then "Cancel" to the permission request. This will enable a local profile.

Click the name of the item you want to change. There are options for both startup and continuous lighting, along with color settings.

Once you are done configuring the lighting settings, return to the main Console menu and click the slider to disable Lighting synchronization.

Enable "Music" under Atmosphere lighting. That is going to be the closest option available out of the box without manually modifying settings.

I've been working around the light sensor and with the available reg. hacks on this forum. I could not find anything that could make a difference.

Is it for real this sensor? I tried to focus a strong light towards the sensor and other times remove the light, the dimming and the device light is just the same!

I reckon technecally the light sensor should dim under high light beam and back to normal under dim light surroundings! :confused:

Works on mine. You definitly have it turned on in the power settings? I find it works best if you put your finger over sensor in bright light.
