Thanks! that did the trick. Finally running global version (from your other post) on chinese phone.

Great to hear, congrats!

thanks mate
[Realme GT 2 Pro] Addswes:
stuck on bootloop for me. i tried to run last 2 commands again, then it still stucks.
[Realme GT 2 Pro] wildlime:
I am so close tried the same and still bootlooping for me to :(
[Realme GT 2 Pro] wildlime:
Well damn. Switching to the cable from the realme gt 2 pro box fixed it weirdly!
[Realme GT 2 Pro] wildlime:
Ok so I now have a brick as it flashed global and tried to lock bootloader. Guess there is no way to fix? EDL mode?
[Realme GT 2 Pro] robert3892:
Don't feel bad I made the same mistake. EDL mode is all you can do. In my case I had a person do it for me (unbrick device). Cost me 15 dollars.

Disclaimer: I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, etc!

Warning: This procedure didn't work for some! Please test at your own risks!

Additional warning: do not relock your bootloader once your global rom is installed. You risk bricking your device.

1. Make sure your bootloader is unlocked

2. Download the images provided in the link below

3. Boot your device to recovery (hold volume up and power until reboot)

4. Wipe data

5. Boot your device to bootloader (hold volume down and power until reboot)

6. Connect your device to PC (make sure you have installed fastboot on your PC)

7. From windows command prompt cd into the folder containing the images

8. Install rooted or not boot image

fastboot flash boot boot.img

OR

fastboot flash boot boot_magisk.img

9. Run the following commands to flash all other images

fastboot flash dtbo dtbo.img
fastboot flash engineering_cdt engineering_cdt.img
fastboot flash metadata metadata.img
fastboot flash oplusreserve2 oplusreserve2.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash splash splash.img
fastboot flash super super.img
fastboot flash vbmeta_system vbmeta_system.img
fastboot flash vbmeta_vendor vbmeta_vendor.img
fastboot flash vendor_boot vendor_boot.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img

fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img

fastboot -w

When flashing super.img, if you get the message Invalid sparse file format at header magic, this is fine.

9. You should then be able to boot into system

Great post. What is the Widevine level after installing the global rom? Furthrmore, does SafetyNet pass and do OTA updates work?
[Realme GT 2 Pro] myogui:
Google pay works, safetynet passes with Magisk module (probably good if you unroot and relock the bootloader but then you'll be stuck until realme unlocks the RMX3301).

but level 3 widevine unfortunately. Also some apps do detect that bootloader is unlock even with safetynet module.View attachment 5587367View attachment 5587369
[Realme GT 2 Pro] SirGustav:
Came here to say that this is working! Got my chinese version today and wanted to give it a try right away.

If this command takes a lot of time and seems like the console froze, don't panic!

fastboot flash vbmeta_vendor vbmeta_vendor.img

Almost every command took like 20 seconds, this one took almost 200, but it finishes eventually.

Also, you may end up stuck on a bootloop. But there's an easy fix, as myogui said on another thread:

Enter recovery mode, wipe data. Enter fastboot and then run the last 2 commands again:

fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img

fastboot -w

Now everything's working, and have been running the global rom all day flawlessly!
[Realme GT 2 Pro] hacls:
Does anyone know how to solve the bootloop problem? I tried the last 2 comands, Wipe Data, last 2 comands again... Flashing everything again... Nothing...

Any help would be very apreciate. Thanks.

UPDATE: It's working now.. lol... I tried flashing back to the Chinese version from myogui, still in bootloop.. Then I execute the comand "fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img", bootloop... Then a tons of research... Then I downloaded a RMX3301 17.5GB .ofp file to try flashing from realme Flash Tool... Then I go to sleep... Then I woke up and just go to PC to fix this thing, but realme Tool didn't work, the Flash Tool said "CANNOT FIND CENTRAL DIRECTORY".... Then I just tried flashing here again with the files and comands above... what the hell, I'm screwed anyway... But this time worked.... LOL...

Big thanks guys!
[Realme GT 2 Pro] hacls:
Trying to lock again the bootloader... and then a message appears saying the flash was broken or something... now I can't even turn this thing off... Just keep flashing "realme Powered by android" screen rebooting again and again and again...

Oh my... to good to be true...

Tip: Just buy the global version.
[Realme GT 2 Pro] wildlime:
No luck. Have tried all combinations of solutions and still stuck in bootloop. Have flashed it fresh 8 times and no luck. Also tried the last two commands above and no luck. And can't use OFP method as realme tool not updated for Gt 2 Pro :(
[Realme GT 2 Pro] Bnblare:
if you're stuck in bootloop try making sure you have the latest version of sdk platform tools, 33.0.1 worked for me.

try running the commands in this order

fastboot flash boot boot_magisk.img
fastboot flash dtbo dtbo.img
fastboot flash engineering_cdt engineering_cdt.img
fastboot flash metadata metadata.img
fastboot flash oplusreserve2 oplusreserve2.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash splash splash.img
fastboot flash super super.img
fastboot flash vbmeta_system vbmeta_system.img
fastboot flash vbmeta_vendor vbmeta_vendor.img
fastboot flash vendor_boot vendor_boot.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img

fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
fastboot -w

fastboot flash boot boot_magisk.img

then on your phone hit power button with start selected
[Realme GT 2 Pro] Bnblare:
Would relocking the bootloader after flashing the global brick me?
[Realme GT 2 Pro] myogui:
You would need to install Chinese rom again using another method of installation or wait for deep testing app to be available on global. But you could still use your device with the global version.
[Realme GT 2 Pro] hacls:
Mine bricked, now it's hard brick... The closest that I got it to back to life was with QFIL, but something keep giving errors when I try to flash... Now I'm gonna try the MSM... If doesn't work maybe I'm gonna return the phone... Or wait until realme release a useful flash tool... Who knows...

I do not recomend locking back the phone based on my experience.
[Realme GT 2 Pro] Bnblare:
Wow dude I'm sorry. Did you revert back to stock then try to relock the bootloader? Or did you try to relock while on the global?
[Realme GT 2 Pro] Bnblare:
Man.. I just wanna play call of duty again lol but it knows even tho my safetynet passes. the app can probably see it's L3 still. I guess I'll wait for realme to release the tool for this phone. I'm pretty sure flashing back to stock using the tool would safely lock the bootloader automatically
[Realme GT 2 Pro] hacls:
I tried to lock with the global ROM in it... Then this screen appears...

This photo are not mine, but it's the same screen... After that... Only in EDL mode...
[Realme GT 2 Pro] Bnblare:
your stuck with no fastboot and corrupted partitions. your gonna have to wait for someone to come out with a UnbrickMe zip or something. does adb recognize the phone?
[Realme GT 2 Pro] myogui:
Very sorry for you mate! I updated the OP to warn about this.
[Realme GT 2 Pro] hacls:
ADB doesn't recognize, like I said, for now on only in EDL mode.
[Realme GT 2 Pro] hacls:
Well, I gave up and paid a guy to flash via TeamViewer... And as I imagined... With MSM Download Tool was five clicks and it's done... Ridiculous easy... MSM would be a amazing tool if it were accessible... Unfreaking believable... Oh my...

But, anyway, it's solved. Thanks guys.

Same here, upgraded to v12.1 yesterday and it's sadly too buggy for me compared to 12.0 which was quite fine !

So far, I've been struck with random reboots, apps crashing so much they delete themselves off the phone (thought that could be because of the revanced youtube patches but still), launcher and interfaces crashing, not being able to use the clock widget (!) because it crashes, etc. I'll go back to 12.0 or find another rom for now. The work done on 12 and previous is very good so thanks tho !

[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Foldaddict:
So about 2 weeks ago I got a galaxy z fold 3 device which I really like and it hasn't really given me any problems, with one exception - I assume it's because of the newer models interference with the app itself, because kindle may not have been entirely configured for the fold's versatility. Anyways, sometimes there's this glitch that appears when I open a book on my kindle app and zoom into the fonts to increase its size, and when I do that the page splits into one full page and one half cut-off page on the open screen, making reading uncomfortable. The same happens when the fold is closed and I just use the front screen. The glitch goes away when I restart the app, however it's really frustrating having to live with the uncertainty of when that problem appears in seemingly random time periods. I understand the extra steps for it to work regularly don't seem very important to begin with, but if you had to bash your front door twice or three times into its hinge for it to close properly, you would probably consider moving out or at least getting a new, working door. I can't find any relevant information online - is there someone with a similar problem who knows what's up with this? Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Talderon:
I am not sure I am following you on the issue. I, literally, read books on my Kindle App on my Fold 3 every night before bed. I have opened a book and tried the whole Zooming thing you described, but I am just getting text zoomed in and out with no split pages or any blank sections anywhere.

A couple things you can try is to go into the App Settings and then Storage and Clear CACHE (not data) and see if it helps.

You can also uninstall the app and re-install to see if that helps.

Other than that, can you provide screenshots and/or a video?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] jack lamters:
Try clearing the cache of the app, update it, and uninstall it and re install it again, then reboot your phone
[OPPO Find X5 Pro General] Shane_kchung:
Hello everyone!

Finally got hands on with the new OPPO Find X5 Pro for 1 week now after struggles with customs to get the phone.

So i created this thread for a quick unboxing of the box contents and the phone in general.

Big thanks to @OPPO Ambassador Team for sending over their phone, the gifts together and the opportunity to be in their ambassador team to test out their new OPPO Find X5 Pro

Here below is a quick video showing all the contents when unboxing. This is rather a calming ASMR video with no talking just showing the contents.

Some individual photos of the contents.

First of all the box with a stunning design

Upon opening it you will find another small box containing the manuals, the eject tool for the sim card and a special premium service card with a QR code.

Under the small box you will find a USB-A to USB-C cable for the charger and the new 80W SuperVooc flash charger brick which im happy to see that they don't sell this seperately.

Plus you get a small usb dongle to connect to your pc or old phone to transfer your files seamlessly.

To finish off Oppo sent over a nice gift of their new custom imaging chip Marisilicon X nicknamed as 'MariO' now which comes in that nice frame as well.

Thanks to @OPPO Ambassador Team for that.

This was a quick unboxing and i'll be doing a more in-depth review of the phone soon since i had a chance to use it for only a couple of days. For the next coming weeks i'll be using the Oppo Find X5 Pro as my daily phone for work and routine to see how it performs for my daily needs.

I'm guessing it's because I'm not in Hong Kong. so, is there any way I could flash a firmware with different region? there are only Hong Kong and China version for my model number. any custom firmware maybe? or could I just flash a different models CP or firmware? or anyway root could help?

[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Questions & Answers] YeshYyyK:
I have a Japanese/SO-02K XZ1C,

What is the process to get TWRP/custom ROM/root onto here?

Is it worthwhile? (I understand it will lose NFC, will the battery still be usable?)

Or should I just use ADB to debloat the phone and be content with it?

I'm able to turn on the OEM unlocking option in the developer options if that means anything
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Questions & Answers] 4qx:
It's doable but will probably cost you for bootloader unlocking as Japanese models usually have a hardlocked bootloader.

There are at least two recounts of the whole process on xda:

https://xdaforums.com/t/xz1c-xz1-xz...eys-implemented.3795510/page-86#post-86005255

Your call. Because of my unwillingness to spend at the time of my purchase of SO-02K I debloated with ADB AppControl (which was relatively easy). But now that there's a LineageOS port with Android 12 I might just cave and expend.

I just only want to know if its possible to work with japanese version, if i could change the language of course? Which problems have the japanese software?

Why People wants to change the rom to a g8441 version ?
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Questions & Answers] 4qx:
Yeah, you can set pretty much any language.

The biggest reason people want to reflash the ROM is because it comes with a bunch of bloatware, some of it in Japanese and some of it unremovable from a phone, but can be removed or disabled easily with a tool such as ADB AppControl.
