[ASUS ZenFone 8] Sogree:
My first attempt (from latest stock A11 to latest root stock A11) did not went so well and I had to factory reset my device. I flashed it so now I have stock A12 running. I would still like to root my device. Is this the proper procedure:

- Backup device

- unlock bootloader with Asus tool

- download latest A12 rom.

- Extract boot.img with Payload Dumper on pc

- transfer boot.img from pc to device

- Install latest Magisk on device (playstore)

- Patch boot.img with Magisk --> patched boot.img

- Connect device to pc

- transfer boot.img from device to pc and put in ADB folder

- go to ADB folder run:

- adb reboot bootloader

- to test run adb boot.img fastboot boot patched-image.img

- if rebooting works/no loop: fastboot flash boot patched-image.img

- Reboot device; It should boot into A12 WITH root capabilities.

Is that all? Please add to this list.

separate question: Does a rooted A12 still recieve OTA updates? And if not..... does relocking the bootloader do?
[ASUS ZenFone 8] FastJack2:
thats exactly the way i did and it worked ;)
[ASUS ZenFone 8] Goldsusanoo:
I apologize if this has been covered. Just got zenfone 8 regular, and updated to android 12 build version 31.1010.0410.43 Has anyone rooted with that update? Or is it possible to factory reset back to 11? Thank you

If there is a message and i press ALL MESSAGES in touch flo 3d and turn off the screen (standby mode), there is no incoming sms ringtone (only blinking light) when received new sms. The problem is in ALL MESSAGES, if i don't press it, there is no problem with the incoming sms ringtone in standby mode. Anyone have the same problem?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] BoldFace:
I just noticed this problem the other day, after i mucked with TF3D (added the calendar and comm manager). Soft reset usually fixes it, then it happens again at a random time. I am trying to troubleshoot currently...

Hi guys

i just want to install custom rom on my Redmi 8 i don't care about android 10 or 11 , so , which custom rom is the best for battery life?
[Xiaomi Redmi 8 Questions & Answers] fonzacus:
im currently trying out havoc 4.12 and have to say its more battery friendly than crdroid 7.12, havent tried .13 yet. if you want to try havoc, id strongly recd to download both variants, as some have bugs on vanilla and vice versa

your mileage will vary

normally id have a minimum set of apps installed and running, and will def use a browser for anything and everything

I've bought an Lg Velvet and I love everything about it...except a big deal breaker for me...its' portrait mode sucks. Both on the front and on tbe back camera it struggles most of the time in sitiuations where an older phone like my Mi A3 simply nails the photo. It's really a shame because otherwise it's an awesome phone. I'm selling it and keeping my Mi A3 :(

[Vivo X70 Pro+] friedkoala:
Thanks for the review! I received my Chinese X70 Pro Plus from WondaMobile on 5th January and despite its quirks and spending a good couple of hours over ADB uninstalling apps, customising and tweaking notifications so they work, I'm genuinely over the moon with it. I have to agree with you on the level of customisation too - there is so much of this device you can make your own!

I've not had the Ocean update yet but the beta program is full so I guess I'll just have to wait a bit longer for the official roll out!
[Vivo X70 Pro+] Mariuszuzd:
Hi,

I am considering the vivo x70 pro plus as my new mobile phone. Would you recommend it ? I am looking to buy it on traiding shenzen or Wondamobile. I regret that there is no possibility to install global version of the software. Did you pay a tax when you receive the package ? I am from Poland.
[Vivo X70 Pro+] maxant69:
I bought it from Wonda Mobile, no import tax (Italy)
[Vivo X70 Pro+] Mariuszuzd:
Hi,

One question, normally would you have tax, if you buy something outsider the EU in Italy? Are you satisfied with the phone ?
[Vivo X70 Pro+] piskr:
Wonda pays the tax, there is no import duties at all. And they are reliable. If you want to have a global model, I believe that you can buy it on Ebay now and then. But I wouldn't do that. It's not just a money, when I bought it, it hasn't been cheap at all. It is all about user experience.
[Vivo X70 Pro+] Mariuszuzd:
Okay, understand. Final question, so you confirm the positive outcome and review? The phone is worth buying? I am considering mi 11 ultra, mi12 pro, OnePlus 9 pro or 10 pro and 70 pro plus. I watched several reviews on YouTube, but I am wondering if those could be paid. Better ask some who really use the phone. 5g, vowifi, volte, all is working in the Italy?
[Vivo X70 Pro+] maxant69:
For me it's a great phone. In Italy Vodafone Volte works during phone call; I don't have a 5G plan so I can't reply.
[Vivo X70 Pro+] piskr:
5g works, my operator doesn't provide volte nor vowifi. But i have switches for both options.

In Italy you have every 5g band but mmwave (26GHz) covered.
[Vivo X70 Pro+] Mariuszuzd:
Thank you for the reply. What about google pay, it works? Any issues with installing the apps from play store? Have you noticed anything which can be important to mention to potential buyer. I watched almost all reviews but those are not focusing on the system itself. I am a bit afraid of the optimalization and the software of that phone.
[Vivo X70 Pro+] piskr:
Google Pay works, no problem with bank apps or any app installed from GPlay. Just two exceptions: hotword and Android Auto don't work. This is due to the latest Google configuration demanding both to be system apps. Everything else work just fine.

If you are familiar with customization of the phone, you have nothing to worry about. And there are plenty of instructions around.
[Vivo X70 Pro+] maxant69:
Even WearOS watch doesn't work with Global app. You have to download WearOS app from Vivo App Store but doing that way Google Pay doesn't work from the watch.
[Vivo X70 Pro+] piskr:
Can't really tell. Never used a smart watch and neither intend to, my central intelligent device was always a phone. The watch functionality seems always to limited to me to bother. Small screen, 1 more device to worry about battery and get little in return really never attracted me. Know people bought smart watches and abandoned them soon after.
[Vivo X70 Pro+] lucaluca72:
hello I have x70 pro plus Chinese version, have you solved the problem with the notifications? I have activated all permissions and I work in the background but gmail and other applications arrive late
[Vivo X70 Pro+] maxant69:
WearOs is pure garbage, but it doesn't complete work on chinese firmware. I someone wants a smartwatch better stay away from it and buy other brand (Huawei, Amazfit, Mi..)
[Vivo X70 Pro+] maxant69:
Did you remove/disable com.vivo.pem?
[Vivo X70 Pro+] piskr:
Guys, yesterday I received the third update since I was on Ocean. This time it addressed better functionality of this party apps among others and implemented January security patch. Although it is beta it appears pretty stable already. I believe that the stable version is very close.
[Vivo X70 Pro+] Mariuszuzd:
I"m waiting for confirmation and working of android auto. At the moment that is a big issue and Android auto is not working on any Vivo phone. I have seen some posts regarding the X60.
[Vivo X70 Pro+] piskr:
And it won't as long as Google keeps request to be a system app. I believe that it's a total longshot. Hence I started to look for alternative solutions.

One I currently use is involving a intermediate element between the phone and the headunit. I use one old tablet with broken glass for the purpose and it works perfectly with limitations. The limitation is that I must use sip on the tablet if I want to call someone through the headunit and there is no way to accept the call this way.

But all other AA functions works flawlessly (music, maps, streaming) through hotspot from the phone.

In order to have working calling and hotword function I ordered a dedicated mid gadget which supposed to support that. I'll tell more after receiving it.
[Vivo X70 Pro+] maxant69:
Android Auto won't work on Vivo devices with Android 11 and up.

It works for example on Vivo X50 Pro Plus because is still on Android 10.
[Vivo X70 Pro+] Lexxmark:
You are wrong, my friend. Take a look on my reply above😜 You just need to ask customer support in a proper way😊
[Vivo X70 Pro+] renderjoe:
Different information from Vivo customer support, hope your‘s is the right one. So let‘s wait…
[Vivo X70 Pro+] renderjoe:
Vivo Global Customer Support

"At present, it is confirmed that the Chinese version has not promised to upgrade to Android 12. OriginOS Ocean is a smartphone operating system that is deeply optimized, customized and developed based on the Android system. Due to the different hardware capabilities and configurations of each model, some models will continue to use the original Android version."
[Vivo X70 Pro+] Lexxmark:
yes, saddly it's true. I've got the same reply today. they have signed their own verdict and I'm sure they will lose a lot of customers because of this. for example, for me this is the last Vivo. BYE, VIVO!!!
[Vivo X70 Pro+] piskr:
There are still users with a different perspective. I didn't buy this phone in order to have the most accurate updates. If I had wished that, I would have bought Pixel, Samsung or even Xiaomi. Not the top end model, but for the same price. Or even cheaper. I bought once Xiaomi, and it was a true disappointment. Not because of updates, but because of terrible functionality.

As usual, when I buy a known brand phone (and Vivo was known brand for me in the time of buying), I knew precisely what to expect - all strengths and weaknesses. That save you a lot of disappointment. I still believe that I got what I wanted. The only surprise is heating, but this is rather SOC than phone brand problem. Yes, I'd rather have a flat screen and (after years of thinking different) a smaller phone, but that two were compromises in favor of more important functions (still one of the best cameras, flawless functionality, screen and versatility).

Android 12 is all about design. Ocean is just a different fork of a phone design, and I believe that with Android 12 and Ocean I'd gain almost nothing.

My view on every phone is rather practical. I don't give a damn for a tone of updates if they bring nothing valuable. I prefer a stable, fully functional system.

Therefore, what I'm interested in, are new improved functionalities, connected with the identity, security, authentication and key replacement. I admire the idea of a phone which replaces everything in your pocket or purse (regarding identification and entering). And I know that only a few today phones supporting this. UWB is needed, and sooner or later comes the time for the phone replacement. For good. Probably next year.
[Vivo X70 Pro+] Lexxmark:
yes, you are right, except one thing. A lot of people (and me as well) buy flagship phones for 2-3 years of usage. And when manufacturer promise to deliver 3 major updates and then deceives, it's a real SHAME!!! Next time I will buy Samsung again even if I need to pay 30-40% more! But I will get an actual updates for at least 3 years, even for 4. And I won't need to change the phone every year due to Vendor's dishonesty. I thought to buy x80 pro plus, but I rather will buy Samsung S23 ultra and will FORGET ABOUT VIVO!!! BYE, VIVO...Hope that most of the deceived customers like me will do the same. And I'm inviting you to join this decision...
[Vivo X70 Pro+] piskr:
Thank you. Samsung is surely mostly times a safe choice. We'll see what 2023 brings. I'm thrilled about real new functionality, which have already been announced. Functionality and customization are gonna lead my decision as usual.
[Vivo X70 Pro+] Lexxmark:
By the way, x80 pro already has beta update of Android 13. So I really don't understand Vivo's policy. What is the difference between two flagships, previous and actual. Any ideas?
[Vivo X70 Pro+] renderjoe:
I think they will just save money, the X70 series is sold and the customers have spend their money. And these customers are nearly 100% Chinese customers and they don‘t care (otherwise Vivo can‘t do that).

Are you sure the Android 13 beta is OriginOS based? (and not FuntouchOS)

Because FuntouchOS has a much more customer friendly software service WITH Android major updates.
[Vivo X70 Pro+] piskr:
Things are not always as they seem. The logic behind is perfectly obvious to me. Vivo is not an amateur but rather a high tech company with advanced development. And all Vivo functionalities that stand out are not a given. Only a few high end phones work as flawlessly as Vivo.

I tried to explain that Vivo always follow through its policy. And what is obvious - Vivo maintains two forks of phone techology: one was limited international (recently became fully international with sales and support in Europe) and the other is meant for Asian (mostly Chinese) market.

And while you could buy before an international phone and have fluent Android versions upgrade, the policy with Chinese models was different. They never promised 3 years Android upgrade, they followed different objective. To develop a skin and the functionality which primary appeal their TARGET CUSTOMERS - mostly Chinese and other Asians. And you might believe - they have rather different priorities than you.

And Vivo succeeded - it developed Ocean and obviously X70 was its test model. Why then bother with back upgrade Android if you have already new upgraded models on the market? If target customers don't value much such upgrade?

And, now, when the development of Ocean is finished, Vivo has an easier task to follow: accurately maintaining Android. And if I'm right, both forks of its system would get it from now on.
[Vivo X70 Pro+] renderjoe:
Very detailled and reasonable explanation, thank you! Yes, it seems that the Vivo X70 series buyers outside China have to accept this.

But my trust in Vivo software policies is gone, I dont't think they are willing to compete with the best, not with FuntouchOS and not with OriginOS Ocean.
[Vivo X70 Pro+] Lexxmark:
yes, that Android 13 beta update is for OriginOS defenitely!!!
[Vivo X70 Pro+] Lexxmark:
Guys, my proposal is to write to Vivo's global customer support that you unhappy with such unfair update policy. May be it will change something. I've already wrote such an email.
[Vivo X70 Pro+] renderjoe:
I did too, but be real, a handful unsatisfied europeans vs many million chinese people? That's worse the time, so for me my X70 Pro+ is the last Vivo.
[Vivo X70 Pro+] Lexxmark:
Thank you, Renderjoe. For me too it's my last Vivo...
[Vivo X70 Pro+] Lexxmark:
I'm going to sell my vivo x 70 pro plus as soon as possible, since I just started to hate it because of the lack of android updates. I'll go back to Samsung. By the way, there is already information about the X 80 pro plus, cheap JN1 and JN2 sensors will appear there. Conclusion, Vivo is a real trash !!!)))
[Vivo X70 Pro+] Lexxmark:
Someone knows what's the point of Performance mode? I've checked it in Antutu and Geekbanch and didn't get any performance boost!!! But didn't check the battery life in this mode. So I suppose it's useless and just a marketing trick. Any ideas?
[Vivo X70 Pro+] tboy2000:
When i try to uninstall com.vivo.pem it says its unaccessible or not found. How can i delete it if its not there?
[Vivo X70 Pro+] piskr:
Guys, the beginning of the next year is the time when I'm going to buy a new phone. And Vivo X90 (the best model) is in the game. Besides, there are two more brands. Sony (Xperia pro-i successor?) and Motorola with the best device, whatever it may be.

The selection criteria are good performance and cameras. And one more feature which supposed to play significant role in future use: UWB.

I believe that regarding my experience, Vivo could be a winner with excellent cameras and performance. I only wish a smaller (6.5 - 6.6) FLAT screen and UWB. But I'm afraid I wish too much...
[Vivo X70 Pro+] tohanov:
Sounds like you're promoting
[Vivo X70 Pro+] piskr:
Nothing to promote yet. Just told that with the new year is time for a new phone for me and what are my criterias. Assume that everyone has his preferences.
[Vivo X70 Pro+] tohanov:
You posted in a 70pro+ thread about a new model, for which you're dumping the 70pro+, which is not even old yet.

Plus you called that not-yet-released model "the best".

Keeping in mind that the precursors of that model earned Vivo pretty big criticism from the users;

To me, it's clearly a promotion
[Vivo X70 Pro+] Lexxmark:
Guys, did you already receive new security update? I have mine from July. But there is already more than 3 month have passed.
[Vivo X70 Pro+] bmw320cd:
Origin OS 3, as announced in the presentation conference, will be based on android 13, just like the funtouch 13 of the global model

So we got lucky and will receive android 13 (origin OS 3) on vivo x70 pro plus as well

The beta was released for x80 pro in china and for other iqoo models that I don't remember now, just search on google
[Vivo X70 Pro+] Rhadamanthis:
in my opinion there will be no update. I don't understand this difference in the updates between oceanos and the global version .... I'm actually thinking of changing phones and switching to something else

[Vivo X70 Pro+] budddy777:
Only 5% used when on standby after 6hours, but when in use can literally see battery percentage going down, 2 min video camera usage 5% down.

Are your notifications working? if phone not used for a long time, for me no notifications, only when I unlock get notifications.

Yes, my notifications work perfectly fine. But the battery life became very bad(( 15% after 8 hours in standby mode.

Hi, I just bought Vivo X100 Pro. I have a doubt: If backup is not working, does it mean I won't be able to save any information in My Google account like contacts or known WiFi networks?
[Vivo X70 Pro+] enb007:
Hello! Can you let me know the apps you uninstalled over ADB? and If you had any issue or unavailability to do something you needed to do on the phone after the process? With this last part I mean in my case, I uninstalled the "battery saver" feature (I don´t remember the "com.vivo."name"") and I couldn´t activate that feature, but I thought that feature could be important some time so I reinstalled it later and problem solved.

Thank you!

The thing that annoys me the most is all the missing Push Notifications.

I don't get them until I open the app.

Whatsapp, Signal, Telegram, MiHome.. I can't figure out how to get around that, I disabled the Smart Notification thing. But still doesn't help.

Anyone else have this issue?
