Can anybody upload stock recovery.img for ZUI 14 please? I changed it to TWRP but it can't flash a GSI image, only with fastboot.
[Lenovo P11] gicaol.13:
If you lock the bootloader and then flash the stock firmware you'll get L1 widevine.

Here you can download the stock firmware, then you have to install the OTA to get the latest firmware.
[Lenovo P11] gicaol.13:
I extracted the files from the OTA 14.0.127, I used Termux and the payload extractor.

Here are the files from the OTA if someone need to flash stock files:

OTA ZUI 14.0.127
[Lenovo P11] mau0968:
I did not use the Chinese VPN. But it seems that I'm now able to update ZUI to the version 14.
[Lenovo P11] mau0968:
I bought the 2021 version with the global ROM.

Installed that firmware using the qualcomm software. When I locked the bootloader, my tablet went locked on a fastboot boot loop, claiming corrupted system. It took me a week to be able to manage to install the stock ROM again.

Can I flash the ROM without rooting the tablet?

Because locking in the boot with this stock firmware will brick the tablet. I know that, because it was exactly what I did.

It is only safe to lock the bootloader with the latest rom.

I locked the ROM after installing this custom ROM, and upgrading to 13.1.560 via OTA. And yet, I only have L3 widevine.

On the Lenovo official forum, there are several owners complaining that they lost L1 state by only upgrading the system... They claim that their tablet was not rooted.

It seems to be a Lenovo issue.
[Lenovo P11] Slu79:
Also just appeared on mine, not updating yet as appears to be multiple issues? (PC mode, play store etc?)
[Lenovo P11] ThiagoArecippo:
I got my p11 with Chinese rom and L1, updated to zui13 with L1 and right before updating to zui 14 Inoticed that i just lost the L1 even without unlocking the bootloader, i NEVER unlocked it. Right now it is still locked and L3. Maybe some app that I've installed?
[Lenovo P11] replicon1:
My Pad Pro 2021 updated to Android 12 and Zui 14 ota yesterday and now I have lost Google Play Store and Google Play Services. Can't get any help from the supplier. Anyone know how to restore these or will I likely have to wait for another ota update?

UPDATE - The following fix (supplied by Equal-Second6166 on Reddit) has resolved the issue:

Go to app management and on the top right corner there's a three dot . And you'll see google basic services, enable it. Then try to restart your device if it's not working.
[Lenovo P11] raymerjacque:
You lose PC mode if you update to ZUI 14...
[Lenovo P11] replicon1:
Yes and no. It seems you can't turn it on like you used to but it appears when you connect it to a monitor.
[Lenovo P11] raymerjacque:
ONLY if you connect via a cable... if you connect wirelessly to a TV it does not switch to PC mode.
[Lenovo P11] replicon1:
That's a PITA. My new Hisense tv will only accept a wireless display from this tablet. I'll have to get a very long HDMI cable now.
[Lenovo P11] fazioso:
is a tablet....for gaming and internet and watch video....its not a pc...

so ,if you lose pc mode,maybe lenovo tecnics have see that it is not used often....
[Lenovo P11] raymerjacque:

[Lenovo P11] CharlieHunter97:
Hi all. New here, first post.

Just wanted to talk about my experience with this tablet receiving this new system update OTA (version 14.0.127). It was about 2 days ago. I woke up, & saw that the tablet must have updated itself overnight, and rebooted itself. I started using the tablet, thinking wow ... this is slick! I thought it was just a new version of ZUI, and just realizing lately that it's also on Android 12 now. Nice.

Problem I had though, was the Play store error (that others on here have been talking about). Clicking on the Play store would show a "error retrieving information from server df-dferh-01" error msg.

I had trouble trying to resolve this. Instead of using the internet looking for answers first, I tried clearing Play store cache and Google Play Services cache. Then I tried uninstalling them (but seems you can't). Then I bumbled around trying to download Play store APK's, and getting error msgs that some couldn't install. It was starting to become a confusing mess. I was too tired to fix the issue, so went to bed.

I'm not sure how I fixed this today, but I remember last, again clearing all data for both Google Play store app and Google Play Services. Then I went to Apps Management, clicked the 3 dots. Went to Google Basic Services, and turned that off! (I think that's key). Then I uninstalled Chrome browser. I was in Firefox browser on the play store page (trying to get Chrome again), and had to re-login to my Google account.

I'm not sure why or how, but clicking on Play store app on the tablet, suddenly started working again. I think after I re-enabled Google Basic Services.

I'm sorry I don't have a clear and concise answer to how I fixed the issue. But this was my experience. Hope it helps someone.
[Lenovo P11] CharlieHunter97:
I've been reading through the old posts here, seeing how some of you were interested in getting/manually installing, this new update as far back as October 3 last year. I think that's pretty cool.

For me, I had no choice. It installed itself. I'm not sure what to make of it yet. It's nice & pretty & slick ...until I use 2 things at once. Like if I try to use split-screen. One side is smooth, and the other shows some jerky choppiness. I don't remember the old version being like that. I notice it when I use Vanced Youtube, and press home key, & it becomes a picture-in-picture widget. So I'll be multi-tasking (with a YT vid playing in a widget), and I see the choppiness. But then again, sometimes with some apps, both sides are smooth (in splitscreen mode).

I read about PC Mode being removed, but that it still is there kind of, when plug into a tv/monitor. I'll be trying that later today.

This tablet is the best tablet I have ever owned. It powers along (it's fast), love the quad speakers, & the battery life has impressed me. I hope future updates, iron out issues :)
[Lenovo P11] Gabrielbonelle:
O sistema também se atualizou no meu tablet. Depois de um tempo não consegui acessar a Play Store. Acabei reiniciando o tablet e agora não consigo conectar minha conta do google a ele e não consigo fazê-lo funcionar novamente com todas as dicas do fórum. Alguém pode me ajudar?
[Lenovo P11] Gabrielbonelle:
The system updated itself on my tablet too. After a while I couldn't access the Play Store. I ended up resetting the tablet and now I can't connect my google account to it and I can't get it working again with all the forum tips. Can someone help me?
[Lenovo P11] ferreol-fr:
Same as Here...
[Lenovo P11] lagbao:
Go Setting > App Management. Then click the 3 - dot icon (...) > turn off and on the "google basic service".

You may try to clear data and cache of Google play service if it doesnt work
[Lenovo P11] KaccatuXDA:
For all those who lost Google Play Store after the OTA upgrade (this assumed that you were on the Chinese Rom with locked bootloader to receive OTA update), I just want to share some findings with you. I faced the same issue and found out that the Play Store plugin on the Chinese app store didn't work coz it was incompatible and obviously outdated. The best approach I found was from the instruction to install play store for xiaoxin pad pro 2022. The links to get Google Play Store and Google Play Services apks from the instruction would be fine to follow but their link to Google Services Framework 12 is incorrect and it would take you to Framework 13 which is for Android 13+. You need Framework 12 for Android 12+.

For me, I wanted latest stuff so I installed the following in the same order as the listing below:

Google Play Store 34.0.12-21 [0] [PR] 500233025 (nodpi) (Android 5.0+)

Google Play services 22.50.14 (200400-499278674) (200400)

Google Services Framework 12 (Android 12+)

Note that I chose to install non-bundle apks because I don't know what the bundles are.

After doing the installations of those 3 apks, the Play Store app didn't show up on app screen because it wasn't enabled after installation. You just need to go into Settings and search for "Play Store" and enable it. It would then show up on your app screen. This issue might not happen to you but if you face problem, you can search for these 3 items in Settings and see their statuses.
[Lenovo P11] lagbao:
Does anyone encounter the error that battery capacity being reduced?
[Lenovo P11] replicon1:
Are there any Google Play Pass subscribers with the Xiaoxin 2021 Chinese ROM? I am and I can't seem to use apps that should be free with the sub. My daughter loves Duplo World and the Crayola game but in app purchase locks are preventing her from using them. Tried clearing cache and data but nothing works.
[Lenovo P11] Wualk:
Me too. It is one of my primary reasons for using this tablet. When away from my work laptop, I can run the MS programmes without issue and the same way Windows would handle them. Losing PC Mode is a serious issue for me.

I also hate the new roll over menu (or notification panel, whatever you call it). The previous one was way better for the tablet, the new one seems to be made for a phone and then pushed on this tablet.
[Lenovo P11] raymerjacque:
I advise you then to update to version "13.1.560" and stop there. Don't update further ( the next update is ZUI 14 ). I just stopped at 13.1.560 and it runs well, its got all the updates and patches from ZUI 13, including the nice Sidebar File manager ( which looks like windows file manager with categories on the left not at the bottom ) and most importantly PC mode works.
[Lenovo P11] Wualk:
So for my tablet the update was automatically installed, but I wish it had not. So far my experiences have been negative.

- Google Play stopped working (as others have mentioned too)

- I managed to get it working again (thanks forum!) but cannot get it updated anymore

- Many apps also stopped working (e.g. Outlook, Teams), cannot even update or uninstall them

- The new notification menu is horrible, as if it was designed for a smartphone

- PC mode is gone, which I almost used daily

Anyone know if you can revert the update? In the meantime I will try some of the suggestions offered on the forum.
[Lenovo P11] Wualk:
It was automatically updated on my tablet. Know of a method to revert it? Thanks in advance!

Ok Newbie Question.... (Sorry)

When I run QFiL and try to add the Build the I notice there is no firehose.elf file in the ROM that I downloaded from here. 2022102110943225-9609. The contents.xml file is also not there? DO I need to flash this differently to the instructions for the stock ROM? Thanks for you input!

HI sory for newbiw question but I coppied the renames zip file to the internal storage and nothing happens? Do I need to do something? Thank you.......
[Lenovo P11] dbjungle:
I recently updated and everything seems fine for me. I had to re-enable Google Play Services and I don't miss PC Mode, but it was a nice feature. I didn't use it since the UI wasn't scalable.

Does anyone know how to remove recent apps from the dock? My most used apps are already in the dock so often times there are just doubles of the same icon. Not useful for me and it's an eyesore.
[Lenovo P11] dbjungle:
One other thing of note... The display seems a lot less bright. Previously I was at like 40% brightness. Now I need over 70% for the same look.
[Lenovo P11] cleibson@gmail.com:
I've noticed that auto-brightness is slower and inaccurate. Many times in low or no light situation I need to increase the brightness manually. This did not happen with version 13.

I also noticed that in standby the battery drains a little faster.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] shenmoxd:
Recently, I flashed the PixelExperience A12 version to my Mi9. I found that the front camera is only 5MP. I tried GCam and some other 3rd party camera apps but all of them are 5MP.

I would like to try Anxcamera which is ported from stock rom as I know. I follow some guide of Anxcamera provided by AEonAX to install it. But I failed to start the camera. there are lots of versions of anxcamera that confused me.

Anyone could share success experience with installing ANXcamera or any idea to improve the photo quality of the front camera?
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Deleted member 10134073:
Thank you for your guides on bootloader relocking. They have helped to enable bootloader relocking on other devices.

After "all further references will only be to the Google Pixel 5 (redfin)" but before the "Thank-Yous", there are a few (typos?) that refer to the oneplus. In particular, beneath "Other things" and "under what messages do I see during the boot process then?"

HTH
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] antonyjr:
If anyone is interested, I made a tool to automate all this using Hetzner Cloud. This tool's client can pretty much run on anything, including android itself on Termux(since it's a terminal app). You can make the tool upload the finished builds to your private repo so no need to worry about letters from Google for using GAPPS.

wget -O ham "https://github.com/antony-jr/ham/releases/download/stable/ham-linux-amd64"
chmod a+x ham

./ham init # Init with your Hetzner Cloud API (Only Once)
./ham get ~@gh/enchilada-los19.1:gapps

# Without gapps
./ham get ~@gh/enchilada-los19.1

# You can close the terminal app after it starts tracking remote build
# the build continues to run on the cloud until finishes or errors out,
# in both cases the server destroys itself to save you a lot of cost.
# It cost me 0.30 euros for single build which ran for about 3 hours.

Thanks for the OP though, I copied a lot of scripts from WundermintOS.

Now the output of the build can be flashed like the OP described for OnePlus 6 and the pkmd.bin file will be included in the recovery zip file along with the boot/recovery image. The tool will ask you question before it starts the build for the variables, like the path to Android Certs in a zip file which will be used for signing.

[HTC One A9] fabulas_:
Google pay gives me the error "Cannot be used in this device", basically I have the bootloader unlocked...but I don't have root, as I had to remove it because it was giving me problems.

I tried to run Safetynet test and it gives me CTS profile match "fail" everything else is "success" as you can see from the screen.

Is there a solution without putting root to get CTS profile match "success" so I can pass the Safetynet test? I hope so because otherwise I am forced to give up Google Pay.

I'll preface this by saying that I haven't tried it to see if it actually doesn't work with payments but since I get that message ""It can't be used in this device" and the Safetynet check is fail I guess it's also useless to try..

Eventually if there is no solution I could lock the bootloader but at the same time I guess I would have to give up TWRP, if yes it is a solution to be discarded.

I hope someone can help me. Thank you.
[HTC One A9] abuchison:
Google CTS profile check adds no value. It prevents some stock firmware from running properly while rooted devices can easily get around it. Google should just drop this stupid design.

Hi,

i'm wondering if there is a nice library or a set of extended mfc classes for mobile developing. e.g i like the buttons of the htc touch diamond. is there a chance to reuse them in my c++ project, or do i have to ownerdraw a cbutton?

there are a lot of cool application with nice controls and transparency lie s2v, s2u2, opera mobile.... do they all all reinvent the wheel or do they use a library?

LineageOS 20.0 for Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact

RELEASE

This is an alternative ROM for the Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact, offering several privacy features.

Please report any issues you observe apart from the ones listed below. Logs are needed for me to fix anything (preferably dmesg and logcat). I can't test NFC very thoroughly, to please report your findings.

FEATURES

Signed with dev keys

Up-to-date kernel

WireGuard kernel support

DOWNLOAD

ROM: https://sourceforge.net/projects/yoshino/files/lilac/lineage-20.0/

TWRP: https://sourceforge.net/projects/yoshino/files/lilac/twrp/

Suggested Gapps (MTG): http://downloads.codefi.re/jdcteam/javelinanddart/gapps (choose 13.0.0/arm64)

Check the ChangeLog below for firmware requirements!

INSTALLATION

Before first install: flash and boot into the TWRP provided in this thread,

format

data, reboot to recovery and wipe all internal partitions, then flash the ROM, GApps and root (if needed).

Or if you are coming from Lineage 19.x, dirty flash to 20.0 is possible too: flash the new TWRP, ROM, and GApps, su addons (if needed).

Note: There is not going to be a LOS su addon anymore. If you need root, flash a root manager of your choice. No guaranteed support from LOS for this.

When updating from previous builds, simply dirty flash the ROM is enough, decryption in new TWRP works now ;)

Recommended GApps: MindTheGapps provided in this thread.

KNOWN ISSUES

Stock camera is not working anymore due to incompatibility of stock library (libimageprocessorjni.so) with new libgui

You tell me...
