I have a poco x3 nfc, rooted with Magisk and the latest Pixys OS installed as my custom rom (AOSP based, close to stock android 11)

It was an absolute slog to get this thing rooted and put a custom rom on it since info on Xiaomi devices seem to be sparse, but I got there. I have one last bit I just can't seem to solve though: I can not for the life of me figure out how to change the boot animation. It's obviously possible since it changed with the ROM, but I can find no reference to how anywhere.

I checked all the standard and suggested places (system/media, data/local, system/customize/resource ) and searching the whole phone for bootanimation.zip turns up nothing at all. it's been a week of digging online and I'm no closer than I was.

While I'm concerned with changing it on this phone specifically, I'm more interested in how people locate these things when they aren't in the usual spot? I don't mind digging around in files and I have a full backup on twrp and the stock rom on the sd card and my PC so messing things up along the way isn't too much of a worry, I've gone back to stock before.

I'm no stranger to computers and writing code, made my own linux distro once, but I'm mostly self taught on phone stuff, so I guess consider me a somewhat informed noob on this one, if there is other information needed on here and I didn't include it, that's why, I'll update this with more if needed.

Hey folks

I bought my first M20X in November 2018.

It was crashed ½ year ago, so sad.

Then I bought a Samsung s21 ultra, had it 1 month, did not like Sammy any longer, hate the OS and the display size hmmm to small.

Then I got my xiaomi mi 11 ultra 1½month ago, I liked it better then the S21u BUT missed my good old M20X which still is a hardcore phone in my eyes.

I bought a new one 8gb 256gm Chinese version with a global rom on Aliexpress 😍

It work absolutely 100% like my old global M20X Hong Kong version, no Chinese stuff at all.

It surprised me the M20X forum still is active here.. Awesome, not much, but still.

Big story yes, for a tiny question.

Every time I restart my M20X is set as automatic light dimmer grrrrr, don't want that.

I remember the same problem in 2018, but how to fix it, I don't remember and can't find anything about it...

Anyone in here know what to do 🤔🙄😇??

Hey

Thx but I have the highest update you can get to this phone. And I'm happy for this, because it gives me all i need. I don't even use my xiaomi mi 11 ultra... I had it for around 3 weeks now, but this tiny display is hard to work with 😆

And most amazing part I got 2 security updates the last 5-6 weeks, it surprised me a lot 🙏🏻🤞🏻😍

Ok thats what i thought.

Today I tried the samsung note 20 ultra at a store. I have to admit it looks very good! It may be a bit smaller than the 20x but its still a big phone with an amazing sharp bright screen. I'm very tempted into selling my 20x and buying the note 20 ultra instead. Very tempted.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] BigDisplay:
I understand you, tried the same with S21 ultra BUT, for me the display is much smaller and the battery time sucks big time vs M20X and that's enough for me to go back to my beloved M20X.

And I think the same will happen with Mi 11 ultra. When I compare speed etc, I don't feel any big difference at all. So M20X is still 95% up to date.

But wish you good luck then 👍🏻🌞

Hello, I have a poco m3 pro running miui 12.0.10 global + default POCO launcher, not rooted.

Left & right swipe gesture active areas seem too narrow for me, I find myself having to use the tip of my finger in order for it to register, otherwise it won't swipe. I thought it was the case so I ordered another one but same issue. Anyway to widen the area a bit so I don't have to try 3 or 4 times for it to register? I removed the applied screen protector but nothing changed.

This is the case I have. I tried fluid gesture app and that gave me an option to widen the active side areas and made it much better, but I'd like to use the default app. I've never had this issue with my older phones (pixel 3A XL, 4a 5G).

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pachacouti:
This 'tutorial' is a quicky for those yet to figure this fone out.

Well it took a bit time for sure, but this is how it went...

No matter what recovery or magisk I tried, nothing worked, all ulefone images with twrp were 64mb in size, where-as mine was 32mb. Betting the 64mb is a/b partioned like the old ambit 250 modems, where half the non-vol was the first boot, the second half a clone of the first half.

No file for the mt6765 worked. In other words, no twrp. instant bootloop every time.

But then I found the ulefone note9 mt6762 recovery, flashed it, booted into recovery, and had root!

Until I rebooted at least. There was no access to the actual fone system however, for in recovery, system, or / has not been mounted, and if it was, it cold not be written to..

Then I had an idea. I tested the root.img from android kitchen by flashing just that direct to the recovery of the fone, and it not only stuck, I could switch off fone, reboot, and what I call an overlaid file system with root presented itself, and before I knew it I had a fake root that worked.

The problem with this fone is that it actually uses mt6762 for booting, booting into mt6765 style, vice versa does not work. The note9 is a 6762 chipset. 32mb in size.

The root.img from android kitchen, flashed to recovery gives the head start, having magisk installed, but sadley, twrp did not show in recovery using the note9 recovery that has a working twrp, and the android kitchen root.img shows no twrp, being magisk'd!

Unlocked bootloader required.

Boot into fastboot.

fastboot flash vbmeta vblankmeta.img

fastboot flash recovery root.img

boot fone, install magisk manager, superuser and busybox apk's, then root checker pro, test and see, by rebooting, it should keep root if you set su to boot via busybox, AND superuser.

Now if someone wants to make this for this actual fone, with the correct file versions for this fone, I'll post my latest stock recovery, along with the files I used. All files as far as I know came from here, I have done nothing to them.

The actual Files are: Armor x5 Android 10_Q root.zip is actually a 7z file renamed to zip to upload here, i use 7z, and dont install winzip, and the password for both is Re-Kr8, used in order to prevent google tampering.

The zip contains vblankmeta.img and root.img taken from android kitchen, hope they dont mind auld folks like me helping this way...

The origional is recovery from unrooted fone taken from stock firmware, android 10 Q for ulefone armor x5.

Have a nice day.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pachacouti:
Sussed it... when the fone booted, I had the note9 magisk appear dulled out on my screen.

adb shell

$

su

sits and waits...

update magisk using canary 23 apk, but do nothing else.

adb shell

$

su

mount -o remount,rw /

do whatever.

Let magisk do it's stuff n reboot

mount -o remount,rw / is now impossible.

Get it?

Recovery can access / with rw access! <- VOILA!

Edit:

Oh, and flashing magisk to recovery is causing the bootloops, as is the confusion over why we'd flash a boot to recovery or recovery to boot, me I try anything, and I bet the note9 is the key to the read only fs, in that it still contains everything in 'A' bootloader, not several...

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pachacouti:
One last thing I forgot to mention, without twrp, forget twrp.

I made a proper boot image for this fone, that also works when booting it from recovery, when booting from recovery, if in select recovery menu, continuing to press + VOL button, while choosing recovery lol...

And the boot image works with stock recovery!

Sadley, no twrp flashing :(

So how to get the twrp flashables flashable again?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pachacouti:
The above MyBoot.img gives magisked root access flashed to boot.

You PORTed TWRP img or only flash that img file directly in your device?

If you want I'll compile the TWRP 3.5.2_10 to you. Only send me stock recovery.img & super.img same version from your device.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pachacouti:
I'll post the ULEFONE note9.img I used to gain access. The thing is, when I use this, system is writable, but obviously I update magisk, and while rebooting after doing the 'live install' of magisk (works fine to patch a boot that fails... )

My process is this, I can patch an origional boot with magisk after flashing note9 to recovery,

I can then flash the patched boot and it works when flashed to boot, and can use origional recovery, but cant flash magisk'd boot from origional un rooted fone, patched by magisk, so the note9 was my 'backdoor' so to speak...

and the systems all over the place lol.. dynamic is a pain, cant even find my sdcard and kali nethunter magisk modules need zips not git lol...

The note9recovery has something to watch for.. using clean slate, when booting the note9recovery, as fone goes into loading (past recovery) and just before fone goes into gui,

when doing "mount -o remount,rw / " system is actually writable, but cuts off adb when gui gives access!

Magisk somehow wrecks the actual mount -o remount,rw / I have when I first boot, afterwards saying dm-1 or 3 is read only.

Anyway, I'v posted my stock boot and recovery too, if I can see twrp in recovery, I'd be delighted, I lost the plot with all this where's my f'n sdcard, damn dynamic partitioning'!

Oh, and I have a problem, 128gig sdcard, fone says not enough space!

MyBoot1.img posted above is the clean slate magisk'd origional boot WITHOUT twrp, and I can use this to flash to recovery afterwards, in order to boot recovery, but have no twrp... so useless really as recovery, so I flash boot MyBoot1.img just to get a magisk to test lol...

Thanks for your time :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pachacouti:

In the meantime, I noticed when testing twrp ports, a green line flashed just before I get black screen where twrp WOULD show, adb/su works, but no twrp flashing commands, and it crossed my mind I've seen this with the firestick lol, where firesticks were being overlaid with a screen blocking twrp..?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pachacouti:
Update...

Can confirm only the note9 recovery allows me to load up gui, update magisk, flash magisk_patched, adb pull said image, (works for me) fastboot flash with vmeta, and it sticks.

Magisk fails at flashing the image it creates... even online... I noticed in the non-canary version that it stored a copy of the magisk_patched (this is how I 'got in' to the fn, adb pulling this to create MyBoot1.img) - and it showed in the magisk logs, even if it fails, with the canary, this no longer shows... no reason given for failure

My guess is read only fs.

Ps, arm64-v8a

Edit:

Then it dawned on me, guess what? Is your os a user, eng, or dev build? check what we can and cant do... user builds cannot adb root, using vbmeta actually prevents system changes, depending on build. ad remount for instance, wont work on a user version of...

Lopstom. Could you look at the note 9 image, at the beginning of that file, in hex, it shows eng build, can this be hex edited into MyBoot1.img, as easy as copy n paste?

I Believe the armor 8 twrp has eng build in it, this would enable systemrw, we cant do this in user builds! Away to test that now.... betting the prob is what version gives what commands...

disable verity wiped or not, will not change user to eng(iineer) modes...?

Double edit... guess what? I'm correct.

Magisk can patch a boot but cant flash it if your not already root in USER builds.

Isn't this why succesful roots come from those with ENG builds?

And why all stock builds recently are only 'USER' build's?

They can defeat root using this fact alone.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pachacouti:
In the end, I settled for flashing boot-debug.img into boot to get the following:

adb root

adbd is already running as root

cant do this in magisk

adb shell

#

note: magisk kills this. so dont magisk your boot-debug.img

stock recovery wont show, so flash a twrp, for this fone, should you wish to, use twrp by lopstom.

flashing magisk at this point kills adb and removes #

leaving me reflashing to test systemrw_1.32 without root lol...

Edit, my bad, looks like we always had root, but dev's at magisk never did mention variant=user (will NEVER mount) the reason no-one can flash from the actual fone unless online... they dont have root to the fone...

Stock gives root loading the boot-debug.img into boot.img

So yeah, this fone rooted. They all are if the stock contains boot-debug.img.

Hows that john wu? Shoulda chipped in with the variant build not mounting...

Now I know...

Stop killing root we actually have, oh that's right, your no longer android... your an apple employee... tagging our magisk'd with id features... hence trapped to logging in online to get su that comes s=with simply flashing boot-debug.img with ZERO magisk.

adb root

adb shell

#

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pachacouti:
Would you do one more thing?

I have uploaded my boot-debug.img - could you possibly add twrp to this without using the note9 twrp, so I get all the proper settings made for my fone rather than a note9?

The note9 is pie,I need this for android 10 q, different super.img mount points in systemrw kinda thing..

it's taken from the stock I posted here, so you should have pretty much what you need, but one more thing, is it possible to add su to this too?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lopestom:
Not understand what you need.

boot.img has has few files inside it. There are no files in the Ramdisk folder like in recovery.img.

More in-depth detail than you want.

If you want the kernel of this boot_debug.img in the TWRP then it can be done.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pachacouti:
I'm hoping you can put twrp into this debug as it allows root and it's stock, all it needs is it's OWN up to date twrp, the note 9 is for pie, but I'm hoping porting twrp to this works yet retains my phone model's details etc... I think the twrp you've already made for me contains mt6733 or something, not my cpu.?

Lol whatever it takes, put twrp in it so I can flash it to recovery? Yeah, I reckon my kernel is in it, so if you could make a working twrp with kernel for my fone rather than the kernel from the note9, am I on right path? I am past programming lol, but still find things ;)
