[Redmi Note 10S] giszmo:
Same question here. Who does those ROMs? Are they for hire? What's missing? Is there a public repo with work in progress almost working ROMs? How does that usually go? Or do devs drop binaries out of nowhere? I assume it has to be rather transparent for security reasons already.

I would also be willing to chip in.
[Redmi Note 10S] gamersfan:
If you want billion custom roms, dont buy MTK cpu phone :c

Better buy qualcomm
[Redmi Note 10S] giszmo:
And if I did the mistake of buying this phone and would rather pay for a public good than for a second phone? I'd happily pay $300 for this rom but have no idea if it's rather $30k away from being available or if somebody has it done already and just was too lazy to upload.
[Redmi Note 10S] GildroY:
Sometimes buying the phone is based more on it being a 'value for money' proposition. 'Less Money spent' ranks higher than the 'processor brand' for a similar spec processor (in this case better processor at almost similar price ~INR13k/~$170 USD, when compared to note 10 or realme 8-which is useless because of no root possible ever) with a hope that with the device being cheap, a lot of developers will get interested.

It might not be the case with everyone, but i believe, will apply to most of the people out there who want to change devices constantly for cheap.

Might be a dumb question. Forgive my ignorance, but who can help with TWRP for this device? Is there some place where we can request one?
[Redmi Note 10S] J6idot:
Hi, currently i am working on it. It booted however there is a problem, data stays encrypted. Even after format data it still doesn't work. This is because this device uses keymaster 4.1. As i know there is currently no other fix (well i saw something on twrp's gerrit but i am not sure it will work) so you probably should wait a bit more.

Hi! I'm trying to unlock the bootloader of my Lenovo Tab P11 (TB-J606F, Latest software), but none of the command (without fastboot devices) works...

I've tried :

fastboot oem unlock

fastboot flashing unlock

Also, I got sn.img from zui website but it also didn't work.

When I type

fastboot flash unlock sn.img

(Which is based on their description)

I successfully installed TWRP and root.

Do you try fastboot oem unlock-go ?

Please read this and this.
[Lenovo P11] byraan:
On my tablet the process failed, I don't know at what point.

I think because of the step of flashing vbmeta (I think) and now I can not even enter TWRP, it does not start Android and neither recovery, it only returns to fastboot every time it turns on.

Do you know any solution to this?

I have already tried to reinstall the OS with the Lenovo tool
[Lenovo P11] byraan:
Well, I was able to fix it by making various combinations and attempts in the Qualcomm QFIL application until it answered correctly

Now I rooted without flashing vbmeta.img and the file no-verity-opt-encrypt.zip and it still works (those files gave me a bad feeling)
[Lenovo P11] d1m-ON:
Congratulations! I didn't get it right the first time either.

Install TWRP, set up your tablet, make a copy in TWRP. Note that TWRP does not make a copy of the Storage folder - pictures, videos, music. But it makes and restores a copy of everything else perfectly. I had a chance to see this yesterday.:)

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 / S7 Plus Questions & Answer] scoot05redss:
IDK if you still need help. I'm not sure what phone you are using, but I was able circumvent it. I have a Note 20 Ultra from AT&T as well and a wifi only Tab s7+. I was able to load a U1 Firmware onto my Note (This will wipe the phone). I can now sync call and messages. It still doesn't want to work over mobile all the time, but if they are on the same wifi, or if my phone is on a wifi network and the S7+ is connected to the Auto Hotspot from my phone, it works pretty well. Here's the link to the U1 FWs for the Note 20 Ultra. https://xdaforums.com/t/ota-and-non-ota-firmware-for-n986u-and-n986u1.4143833/

Best of luck.

It's a TB-J706F.

I can't figure out what they're talking about in the Quick setup about attaching the Pen. They talk about some hook to push the holder on to but damned if I see anything on mine. I don't think that double sided tape will hold on the texture of the cover/stand for the back of it either.
[Lenovo P11] d1m-ON:
Yes, mine is the same.

Please look inside the /system/app_backup folder, what folders do you see there? You can just list them or take a screenshot. I want to compare. It seems, Lenovo makes one version of ROM for all countries.

Sorry, I don't know anything about the pen, I just have a tablet with a cover.
[Lenovo P11] flhthemi:
Attached screen shot.

Not feeling very happy with mine right now. Maybe I need time to get used to it but I don't like productivity mode. Seems to me some things don't work. Like clicking on an apps full screen button.

I'm trying to run Kodi on it. The youtube addon is slow.........Kodi 18.9 ArmV8A 64bit. I guess that's the one I should use. Kodi 19.1 and the Aeon Nox Silvo skin don't like the touch screen. Don't like the three navigation buttons timing out, wish they would just stay on screen.

Disappointing when I went to Lenovo's site to register it and was told there is no warranty??? I registered it anyway.
[Lenovo P11] d1m-ON:
Ahaha, same content as mine. Yes, Lenovo is very-very lazy, one ROM for whole world.

Yandex* is russian company,

and you only see this **** on you because the russian government has passed a law to install some russian soft on new smartphones and tablets. And stupid lazy Lenovo rushed to implement this law.

They just stole our hard drive space because you can't delete it.

If you install and run LenovoRUapps, it will take you to Lenovo's website, where it says about it and where you can download this very Russian software. Why would Lenovo install it in the system partition and steal our space?

As for me phone protection is very important (my friends call me paranoiac !) I am always very interested in cases but often disappointed.

View attachment 5325291

When I unboxed it, apart that the packaging is perfect and graphically totally my taste, I was a bit disappointed because this case looks really not strong nor special at first glance. And that is the amazing point! This case is greaaaaaaaat but does not let it be seen immediately.

The material is rigid, except in the upper corner of the camera window where it is completely flexible, but being rigid it keeps a certain flexibility as you can see on the pics.

View attachment 5325297View attachment 5325299View attachment 5325301

It is not that thick but it is definitely strong, and to break it you'll need to really want it. So I don't feel my phone is bigger but I feel it is protected and very pleasant to touch and to hold in my hand.

I can hold it quite better than without case or with the OnePlus case, and it won't slide off my hand as it might happen with the one+ case coming with the phone or without case.

It is totally clear and transparent and works perfectly with NFC. Not too much fingerprint smudging.

The buttons work perfectly and are totally protected.

The edges of the screen are very well protected without disturbing the touch.

So for me guys no doubt, this is THE case. I threw in the trash can the oneplus case and I think they should work together with Armadillo Tek because even if it was nice from oneplus to provide a case for free, after 3 minutes using the Amadillo's one I don't consider anymore the oneplus case as an effective protection.

Sorry guys I tried my best but I did not find any drawbacks or bad points to this product, not even it soft price ...

Just one thing more to add: Thanks and bravo Armadillo Tek for this case that make my phone and I HAPPY!

[General Questions and Answers] sollo477:
Hello dear xda users,

I wanted to transfer my WhatsApp to a new phone. I have created a local backup and transferred it to the new phone. Though WhatsApp doesn't want to recognize it and just prompts me for the google drive backup. The number stayed the same and in the past I never had problems with that. The same things happens on my old phone. So now I have all the data, but I cannot use it. It would be sad for me to lose all my chatlogs (6 years). So I wanted to decrypt the database with the help of https://andreas-mausch.de/whatsapp-viewer/. Though I haven't found a recent and decent manual on how to get the WhatsApp Encryption Key from the newest app version and newest Android (crypt 14). I can root my phone if necessary. So if someone knows how to do that, may you please provide a manual or point me in the right direction?

Kind regards,

[General Questions and Answers] sollo477:
I know, it always worked before. But now WhatsApp is just stupid. I also contacted the WhatsApp Support. They were like: "Well...tough luck. We can't help you." Maybe they should just give people an easy way to make an unencrypted export of all chats. I did everything according to the manuals and then the restore of the backup doesn't work. You don't even get any pop up, if something was wrong with the backup file or that WhatsApp cannot find any back ups on the phone. I have Threema as well, but most people I know don't use it.

[General Questions and Answers] sollo477:
That really sounds like a bug. So maybe I should just keep the backups for now till they are old enough to be opened or WhatsApp fixes the problem.
[General Questions and Answers] Oddking:
I saw this fix on another thread and it works

Copy the files ("msgstore.db.crypt14", "msgstore-YYYY-MM-DD.1.db.crypt14"...) in "internal storages/WhatsApp/Databases" on your old Android smartphone

Create the path "sdcard/WhatsApp/Databases" on your new Android smartphone and paste the copied files there

Install Whatsapp via Google Play Store on your new smartphone

Open Whatsapp and verify your phone numer (you have to use the same number as on your old smartphone)

When it asked you to grant access to your files for Google drive, ignore the message and instead close the app (press □ and wipe Whatsapp away)

Activate airplane mode

Open Whatsapp again and wait until you see the message that scanning is taking longer than usual. Press "skip" (don't know the English word, I'm also using Whatsapp in german) and in the new message also press "skip"

You should now see your local backup, press "restore backup"

Disable airplane mode and activate Wifi

Ignore the message regarding Google Drive and, when your backup has been restored (look at the progress bar at the bottom in the background), close the app

Open Whatsapp again and you should see now your old and new messages alltogether!

@sollo47..Did you tried any of the methods above.. My WhatsApp is stuck for verification for next 48 hrs and i wont be getting sms codes to verify.
[General Questions and Answers] ovation1357:
I just wanted to chip in to say that I am hitting exactly this issue right now. I wonder if it's a new bug in WhatsApp because just a couple of months ago I migrated really smoothly from my old Huawei P10 Lite to Pixel 4a and everything was fine.

Now I'm trying to migrate my wife from her Honor 9 (very similar to the P10) to a second Pixel 4a and WhatApp is being a nightmare! There are successful local and Google Drive backups on the old handset and all the messages are still present on that one, but when the new one restores from Google Drive, it only seems to retrieve the media files and none of the Chat history.

I've copied over the latest msgstore.db.crypt12 file but WhatsApp didn't seem to detect it and went back to Google Drive again. Now I've exhausted my verification options for a couple of hours so will have to wait (seriously! I've used 2-3 SMS codes and about 3 phone verifications trying to sort this out!!)

One thing I've noticed, which I really hope isn't going to be a big problem is that when it creates its own new database when restoring from Google Drive it's got a `crypt14` extension.

When I'm able to retry the verification I am going to try as above and put it into flight mode before attempting a restore so that it is forced to look at the local files for options.

Every other App on the damn planet includes menu options for both Backup and Restore, so what does WhatsApp only have Backup and make it damn near impossible to do a proper restore. :-(

I'll update with any progress.
