[ROM][7.1.1]Android Ice Cold Project 12.1
Hey Guys, I have got a big problem here. I had installed the latest release dated 28th Jan (link given by one of the developers). I had upgraded my TWRP to 3.0.2-0 then i installed the rom zip and the gapps zip. At first time it booted up normally without any bugs and all. However after next boot onwards i started getting many background app crashes so i decided to revert back to the TWRP backup which i had made on newly upgraded TWRP just before installing this rom. I had taken backup and then wiped everything to install.
After i restored with no errors i am stuck in boot loop. I mobile restarts and then holds on the boot animation and the vibrates and restarts again. This happens endlessly. I tried to re-wipe everything and restore but it didn't help. I tried to wipe everything and reinstall this rom again but now mobile turns up upto aicp boot animation and the screen turns off and only blue led indication comes on.
I have tried almost everything in laslt 24 hours but no way did anything. Am still stuck at endless bootloop.
This is all that i tried.
1. I tried to flash ROM S288 using QFIL : bootloop
2. I tried to flash ROM S285 using QFIL: bootloop
3. I tried to change partition from ext4 to fat and then back to ext4 for system and data and then restore twrp backup : Bootloop
4. I tried to change partition from ext4 to fat and then back to ext4 for system and data and then install aicp installable zip with gapps :stuck after boot animation with screen off and blue led on.
5. I erased all the partitions and formated all internal partitions as signle ext4 file system (29GB size) and then download stock rom with stock recovery using QFIL. : Bootloop.
There is only way i can stop bootloop and that is i force it to boot in recovery mode (stock/twrp). In either of the recovery mode it boots up and works normally. But irreespective of any rom i try to install it always ends up in bootloop. There is something that it is looking for just after boot animation which it is not able to find after boot animation and hence it boots again. I am not sure what it is looking for so i tried to erase every partition and restore that by downloading stock rom using qfil both lolipop and marshmallow version but still no use.
Please guys tell me what can be done now. its been over 24 hrs am struggling and i guess i already did everything i knew. Now i need your help.

Hey guys a new query here. Your expert opinion is required.
Check this attached screenshot.
I have range of both the networks. IMEI is also my original IMEI. But baseband is unknown. I remember baseband had some value. Why is it unknown now. Any idea?
Is there anything abnormal to worry or shall I ignore it?

Can anyone get me downloaded this p1c72 Vibe UI rom file from chinese website https://pan.baidu.com/s/1qXyzyX2. Please if anyone can please reply.

Translate this Russian language and look for vibe ui. What you are looking for is there.

Hey Guys
Today i have intentionally hard bricked my own Lenovo Vibe P1 (P1a42) just to demonstrate you all how to recover the dead (hard bricked) qualcomm devices.
This process is more or less same for all the qualcomm devices. In some devices other steps may be needed where you will have to wipe entire ROM space and make a single partition of ExFAT format.
https://youtu.be/ZU1vu5diGsE
Well i have tried to make the video in such a way that i include more or less everything possible. Please bare with me.

[GUIDE] How to use ODIN for dummies

I didnt find any step-by-step tutorials about this on xda, which is kind of weird and because i have spare time and its 3:19am I decided to make this tutorial
EDIT: If you are coming from eclair, install a froyo ROM and make sure it has a bootloader. Remember, if you cancel an installation that changes your bootloader, or stop it in anyway, you may hardbrick your phone. MAKE SURE YOU DON'T CANCEL OR TRY TO PAUSE THE INSTALLATION, JUST LET IT FLASH SMOOTHLY. use a laptop if you can, just in case an unlucky power surge would stop the flashing process
EDIT2: Here is a good Tutorial video from xda user Tejas Ahobala (if you don't know what he is doing at the start, dont worry. He is doing a factory reset before flashing):
EDIT3: A word from one of the commenters:
VelocityJump said:
Thanks a ton for this guide. I had rooted my phone a couple of months back but wasn't really able to figure out how to use ODIN to install a custom ROM all this while. A few pointers for others noobs...
1. The tip about some custom ROMs requiring a wipe data is important.
2. If you're already using CWM, use the 'shutdown' option and not the 'reboot' option when the phone reboots during the flashing process.

Here we go...
______________________________________________________________
Terms and words -->
Flashing ==> means installing a new ROM
ROM ==> is the operating system, any version of modded or un-modded android
Android ==> Google made operating system!!!
ODIN ==> Here, it means the program that you can use to flash ROMs on your phone (the phone im going to use here is samsung galaxy 3)
Soft brick ==> No, not the construction brick, this means you've got no working operating system or you have one but its damaged and you can't use it, so you cant see your homescreen, you only see a boot-loop when it wants to come up. You can view your recovery and boot loader (The download screen) when soft bricked, so you can easily fix this problem by re-flashing.
Hard brick ==> Similar to the construction brick, your phone with little hope of recovery without sending to the samsung base for repairs To avoid hard bricks, open the .TAR file which contains your ROM using winRAR, and check if it contains sbl.bin and boot.bin files or not. If it does contain, and you are nervous or this is your first time flashing etc, simply go and flash Kyrillos' ROM or Kyora ROM instead. (I'm not advertising, just stating a couple of ROMs that I know are safe) these ROMs can only soft brick your phone should the worse happen and there is no chance of hard brick
______________________________________________________________
Should this guide be followed carefully, nothing harmful can happen to your phone. Yet I wont take responsibility if something happens to your phone.
______________________________________________________________
**************************************
Remember to Backup your contacts and apps!
**************************************​______________________________________________________________
Stuff to download:
1) ODIN and a .OPS file, found Here, Or alternatively here.
2) The ROM, depending on what ROM you want there are different versions available. check This thread, the kitchens/ stock ROM packs part for stock ROMs, or if you want to try a custom ROM, try any other. I personally use Kyrillos' ROM, or Hillbeast's KyoraROM. Marcellusbe is praised highly by all for giving us the Cyanogenmod.
______________________________________________________________
1) Extract 'Flash tools.rar'
2) open Odin multi-downloader. This is how it's meant to look like.

}
NOTE: Sometimes some random error message with a korean writing pops up. dont worry, it's nothing, just press OK every time you see it
3) Press the OPS button located in the 'Select OPS' section, as shown in the image below. NOTE THAT YOU SHOULD ONLY USE THIS OPS FILE IF YOU HAVE SAMSUNG GALAXY 3. YOU MAY ENCOUNTER SERIOUS PROBLEMS IF YOU USE THIS OPS FILE WITH A DIFFERENT PHONE. (works with i5800 and i5801 as far as I know.)
4) Browse for the 'apollo_0531.ops' that came in the rar file with odin and select it.
5) Tick the One Package option located on the left side of the application.
6) The ROM that you have downloaded should have a .tar extension. If its a .rar file, open it. If it has a .tar file inside it, extract it and use it, but if it has some weird ass stuff in it that only Jesus and Chuck Norris understand the meaning of, you need to use the 'free rar extraction frog' application to turn it into a .tar file. Download it for free from here.
7) The above step was just to confirm if you have the right file, so you dont get any errors. Now just select One Package button that is highlighted in the picture and browse and select the .tar file.
8) Make sure you have ticked everything that I have ticked. Use picture from part 5.
9) Go to your phone. go to Settings->Applications->Development and tick USB debugging if its not already ticked.
10) make sure you have the device drivers, just install Samsung KIES from HERE to make sure you do have the drivers. If the page doesn't show, just Google 'download samsung KIES'
11) turn the phone off, take the USB out, and press volume up, home button (the big fat button in between the menu and back buttons) and the power button together. hold them until you see the 'FORCE UPLOAD BY KEY PRESSING' screen. Now plug the USB back in.
12) Odin will immediately recognize your phone, and there will be a yellow label, like so:
13) Double check that you haven't missed anything.
14) Press start! HERE
15) You will see a blue download screen, saying please don't interrupt. PLEASE DON'T INTERUPT IT!!!!
16) The process will finish and system will reboot one or two times. go have some tea and come back 15 minutes later. You should have the Rom of your desire working on your phone.
NOTE: Some custom ROMs require you to wipe system data and then wipe cache. don't forget to do that! restart phone after wiping the data etc. If you've flashed a custom Rom and the device is showing a stupid triangle with an exclamation mark inside it, dont panic, press the menu button and you will see the menu (This menu is called the recovery menu).
EDIT4: How to flash kernels (on galaxy3/apollo/5800/5801)
METHOD 1==>
1--> you go to the kernel thread and download their kernel. it is to be a .tar file. (eg g3mod.tar)
2--> follow steps 3 to 5 from above tutorial
3--> put phone in download mode (step 11) and connect with usb
4--> in odin, select the 'select as one package file' option and browse for the kernel .TAR file. select it.
5--> check youve done everything. YOU SHOULD HAVE DONE EVERYTHING IN THE TUTORIAL EXCEPT THIS TIME INSTEAD OF USING A ROM YOU'RE USING A KERNEL!!
6--> There is no need for wipe unless otherwise stated by the developer.
7--> congratz man, you got yourself a new kernel!!
OPTIONAL 8--> download setcpu from xda (you can also download off market and pay for it for the donation)
its really usefull, it lets you control how much your phone uses the cpu and you can undervolt the cpu etc, you will find more info on the setcpu thread.
METHOD2==> (Only works for some kernels)
1--> go to the g3mod website and download the .zip version of the kernel. (there is a .tar and .zip)
2--> put the .zip in the root of your sd card
3--> go to recovery mode by either using kyrillos' rom (press & hold power
then choose reboot into recovery) or by turning the phone off and pressing volume up and down and the power button all together. select install .zip from sdcard and then select your .zip you downloaded before.
4--> it will install. no wipe needed unless the dev says so. reboot. HAVE FUN!!
HOW TO FLASH ROMS USING SYSTEM.IMG
1) Download system.img from safe source, preferably provided by dev, or any other trusted member who knows what they are doing.
2) Flash g3mod ROM.
3) Copy the system.img and paste into this path in your sdcard:
sdcard/android/data/g3mod/roms/**there are several folders here, just paste the system.img to the folder that suits the rom's name**
4) Boot into recovery.
5) Go to Multiboot.
6) Select desired ROM.
7) Done

all it took was about two hours
i may make vids about rooting and stuff as well, but im lazy and i think rudolf already done that, so im too late
the reason i made this was that when i first got my phone, it was february last year and the phone was running the eclair (so it sucked ) an i was being pushed by my friends that why i didnt have foryo and it took me literally something like 7 hours to find a 'followable' guide on flashing the xxjpa or something... anyway i thought having a really noob proof guide will be useful too ppl like me a year ago
nicely written
i was searching for tutorial like this 9 monhs ago and never found it with such detailed description

Did you cut off the power or do anything that disrupted the flashing process? Tell us what you did explicitly

Thanks for such a great tutorial.
I have a question.
Does sd card and sim card also needs to be taken out before one start flashing?
Also how long does this procedure take (the flashing process)?
Thanks

after flashing it will work like newly released from factory you can restore and all but depending on if you wiped device after the flasing process you will lose data, thats why i said make a backup of your important stuff before flashing
thnx bscraze for answering peoples questions while i was away

Ok
so should I backup my sdcard contents also on my PC (wipe data will clear both memories sdcard as well as phone's)?
or shall I leave it as it is?
I use titanium backup. Backed up all the user apps using it.

[GUIDE] How to root m8_dugl (M8 Dual SIM)

Hi
As I struggled a bit, here's how to root the HTC One M8 Dual SIM.
Disclaimer
As always, if you **** your phone up, it's not my fault. Don't blame me. Further, I will not answer any questions about this. Please help yourself.
Please use the "Thanks" ( :good: ) button if you just want to say "Thank you" or "Great" or "I wanna marry you".
Prerequisites
HTC One M8 Dual SIM (m8_dugl)
A complete backup of your phone! (e.g. with titanium backup)
fastboot installed
USB Cable
Some time (do not hurry!)
htc DEV UNLOCK (http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader/unlock-instructions)
Warning
Make sure you have a "m8_dugl" device:
Reboot your device to the bootloader (POWER+VOLUME_UP until the screen blacks out, then POWER+VOLUME_DOWN). If it reads there something different than "m8_dugl", then this guide is not for you!
Steps
Download the custom recovery "TWRP" from here: https://s.basketbuild.com/devs/Captain_Throwback/One (M8)/ALL/Recovery (See hint below)
Download "UPDATE-SuperSU-vX.XX.zip" from here: http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu
Copy "UPDATE-SuperSU-vX.XX.zip" to you phone's internal SD
--> Until now no harm has been done to you device but DEV UNLOCK. So this would also be a good time to do a BACKUP! #JustSaying
Open a command prompt and navigate to your fastboot executable.
Put your phone into fastboot mode: POWER+VOLUME_UP until the screen blacks out, then press POWER+VOLUME_DOWN. You see some options soon. Use the volume buttons to navigate, the power button to perform the selected action. Select FASTBOOT and press the POWER button.
Connect you phone to the PC
Type "./fastboot boot path/to/where/you/saved/TWRP_Recovery_x.x.x.x_M8_CPTB.img"
If boot does not work, you can flash the recovery to your phone. But remember: When you do a stock update, you must revert back to a stock recovery!
Do flash the custom recovert, type "./fastboot flash recovery path/to/where/you/saved/TWRP_Recovery_x.x.x.x_M8_CPTB.img"
Touch "Install"
Select the "UPDATE-SuperSU-vX.XX.zip" file
Swipe to start
Touch Reboot System.
You're phone should be rooted.
** Hint **
If the newest TWRP does not work, try a different one.
If none of them work, try the official one: http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/225
If the official TWRP does not work for you, you can try the following one, but it's rather old: http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc...al-sim-european-version-t2816991/post54258731
****
Cheers,
Chris
PS: @donmarkoni provided some resources that might be useful to you. See his post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56134225&postcount=12
Changelog:
[2015-01-18] Updated parts that do not work anymore. Made version numbers generic.
[2014-10-20] a) I have been hinted that the official TWRP should work for the m8_dugl as well. b) The current version of SuperSU is v2.14 and works well. c) @donmarkoni provided some more resources worth mentioning.

Thank you Chris,
step by step guides are always helpful, as the answer a lot of questions about the whole procedure. So I´m at least rooted now. Let´s see if OTA´s will work, but they can also be installed via adb. I prefer having a custom recovery for installs and making backups from data, so this solution is the one I need (and always used before btw).
Thank you !
Guido
thanks alot i hope xda opening section for us HTC-M8 Dual Sim Owners

Hi
I hope you will tell us if the OTA will work.
By the way, do you know of unlocking the bootloader with HTC Dev create any issue for the future OTA?

Stuck in a boot loop
Hi,
thanks for the guide and it worked perectly. No problems all day long after rooting the phone.
But since this morning I am stuck in a boot loop! Already tried factory reset, that works at first, after the phone is loading some updates, it is running into a boot loop
Is there anything I can do?
Rgds

Edit: Updated SuperSu, Works again...
m8 update ?
any1 knows if we are ever gonna get updates like regular m8 ? , i am still waiting on the root thing hoping they will update ,
any1 have any information or should i go ahead and root ? , is the performance better after rooting and removing all that bloatware or no significant difference ?
last question plz , does xposed module work with this phone and sense 6 toolbox use in android revolution hd rom ?

I read somewhere that our dual sim should get directly Android L and until then no update. Xposed module, sense 6 and Wanam Xsense are working good, of course u need to be rooted
FYI - You might want to update this guide to point to the official TWRP for M8 now that it supports Dual SIM.

@donmarkoni: i posted this question in the stock recovery thread but got no reply...
i have downloaded the mega file 0P6BIMG_M8_DUGL_K44_SENSE60_HTC_Europe_1.45.401.12_R_Ra.... 2 times before and tried winzip, 7-zip and winrar but zip file is corrupt. is this a new file? i cant see an md5 or sha. size of my download from windows properties is 1,506,353,851 bytes.
have you checked the file?
the '2014-07-26--03-35-20 KOT49H release-keys.zip' is a clean TWRP backup?
i have made my own backup by temp installing TWRP 2.8 so can also confirm that works (thanks again Captain_Throwback)
any sign of an original RUU yet?

That's why I usually don't install the recovery but only boot it. We'll see in Spring 2015 if it works, it seems that we won't get an update any sooner.

0P6BIMG_M8_DUGL_K44_SENSE60_HTC_Europe_1.45.401.12.....signed.zip is a encrypted signed zip, as the file name suggests. It does work, as you can see here. All other files are good too. That's all I can say about it, as I don't have that phone, I was just helping.

LG Stylo 2 Boost Varient Permanent Root Accomplished!

PLEASE HIT THANKS IF THIS WORKS FOR YOU
ok guys i got permanent root there is one pre qualification you will need to accomplish this you must be on software version LS775ZV3 currently this is the only version that can get temp root from kingroot which is what you will need to start this process. ok so if your one of the lucky ones that have that software version and didnt update go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/one-click-root-tool-android-2-x-5-0-t3107461 and download the latest version of kingroot which i believe is 4.9.6 install it and run it and get temp root, after you verify that your phone is rooted what we need to do now is replace kingroot with super su without rebooting the phone a softboot is ok the temp root will stick with a softboot your going to have to go to the link and follow the guide there to replace kingroot with super su using terminal emulator http://forum.xda-developers.com/a310/general/how-to-remove-replace-kingroot-kinguser-t3308989 . so after you follow that guide kingroot will be gone and super su is now on your phone. super su will ask you to update the su binary make sure to use the normal option, after you press that button it will start to update but will fail so what your going to have to do next is install (Root) FlashFire to install the su binary update manually which can be found here https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.flash&hl=en and the su binary zip file can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538053 . i recommend the stable version, download that zip and put it at the root of your internal memory after you do that and install FlashFire on your phone its time to get down to business open FlashFire when it asks for root permission make sure to grant it after that hit the + symbol then press the button that says "flash zip or ota" when it opens it will show the content of your internal memory locate the su binary zip file that you put there earlier and press it to load it up to flash, make sure the only thing checked is the "mount/system read/ write" and hit the check mark to ok it then hit the wipe button and make sure the only two things checked are the "Dalvik cache" and the "Cache partition" hit the check mark to ok it. after that scroll down to the very bottom and hit the flash button after that it will start to flash the updated su binary and then it will reboot and i know it seems scary but the red notification light will stay on until it reboots all the way and there will be red text that pops up and says boot verification fail it scared the hell out of me i thought i bricked my phone again anyway give it a minute or two to boot and once its done and boots into android you have a fully rooted LG Stylo 2 like i said i have the boost variant not sure about the other versions but these steps are pretty universal on any android device also just so i don't get blamed do this at your own risk im not responsible for you messing your phone up but it worked for me perfectly i have restarted my phone normally a hundred times and root is there every time anyways enjoy im not much of a developer so please don't ask me about custom recoveries or custom roms i don't do that but now that we have root maybe a developer might come in and help or something.

when you remove the battery and restart the phone is it able to boot back into android? not sure why it would hang just follow the steps to a T it should work, this is the exact same way they rooted the kindle fire 7 5th gen with blocked bootloaders as well that is why I said its pretty universal and not device specific but if your phone is fine just reboot and retry.

I've rebooted and retried multiple times over and always have the same issue. My phone has always had the red writing when you first power it up, ever since I rooted it with KingRoot anyways. Is there anyway to get it back to 100% stock? Would that help? And when I say 100% stock I mean above and beyond wiping it

You must be getting some error message on the black screen. It usually fails if the framework is incorrect.

Make sure your phone isn't Version 4. If it is....then that's probably your issue. This method only works for Version 3 not 4

Hhhhhmmmm......I would say to put all your info that doesn't expose you up on here so people know of your issue. Speak to an admin or the OP and see what info they would require to be posted. Every article I've read so far has been positive when it comes to V3 on Boost variant of Stylo 2. Unfortunately I have V4; so I'm patiently waiting.
Silly Me.

Asus zenfone go zb551kl rooting (working & tested)

So lets get started already. First of all I'm not the one who discovered this method. credits to this person Angelito Cristobal.
Things needed.
MICRO SD at least 2gb
Of course Asus Zenfone Go 5.5 ZB551KL
Old Firmware of Asus
Latest Version of KingRoot
BEFORE YOU GO FURTHER. MAKE SURE YOU ALREADY BACK UP YOUR FILES.
This method is just, going back to the old firmware that has rooting vulnerability.
1) Download the old firmware to this link http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/ZenFone/ZB551KL/UL-ASUS_ZB551KL-WW-13.2.8.13-user.zip
If the link doesnt work try looking here https://www.asus.com/support/Download/39/2/0/16/xKn9nXyUA5DhW70G/32/ The name of the firmware is something like this UL-ASUS_ZB551KL-WW-13.2.8.13-user.zip
2)Put the old firmware or UL-ASUS_ZB551KL-WW-13.2.8.13-user.zip to the microsd
*after that. Go to Recovery Mode. Press together Power Button + Down Volume . Hold it until the Asus Logo Shows up. (My own method, that works for me is after the Logo shows up, i spam press,not holdPower Button + Down Volume)
3)Wipe Data Reset and Cache (Just make sure you wipe the internal storage not the microsd)
*to select the update. Use Volume up or volume down to go to your file target. Then hit power button to choose your file.
4) After Wiping,Apply Update From SD Card just wait... after it finished just reboot. Then you downgraded the firmware! Go set it up
5) We'll be using kingroot. Because this is the one that works. Here is the latest link https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=23923
6) Then your good to go! Credits again to Angelito Cristobal.

4) After Wiping,Apply Update From SD Card just wait... after it finished just reboot. Then you downgraded the firmware! Go set it up
5) We'll be using kingroot. Because this is the one that works. Here is the latest link https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=23923
6) Then your good to go! Credits again to Angelito Cristobal.

So lets get started already. First of all I'm not the one who discovered this method. credits to this person Angelito Cristobal.
Things needed.
MICRO SD at least 2gb
Of course Asus Zenfone Go 5.5 ZB551KL
Old Firmware of Asus
Latest Version of KingRoot
BEFORE YOU GO FURTHER. MAKE SURE YOU ALREADY BACK UP YOUR FILES.
This method is just, going back to the old firmware that has rooting vulnerability.
1) Download the old firmware to this link http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/ZenFone/ZB551KL/UL-ASUS_ZB551KL-WW-13.2.8.13-user.zip
If the link doesnt work try looking here https://www.asus.com/support/Download/39/2/0/16/xKn9nXyUA5DhW70G/32/ The name of the firmware is something like this UL-ASUS_ZB551KL-WW-13.2.8.13-user.zip
2)Put the old firmware or UL-ASUS_ZB551KL-WW-13.2.8.13-user.zip to the microsd
*after that. Go to Recovery Mode. Press together Power Button + Down Volume . Hold it until the Asus Logo Shows up. (My own method, that works for me is after the Logo shows up, i spam press,not holdPower Button + Down Volume)
3)Wipe Data Reset and Cache (Just make sure you wipe the internal storage not the microsd)
*to select the update. Use Volume up or volume down to go to your file target. Then hit power button to choose your file.
4) After Wiping,Apply Update From SD Card just wait... after it finished just reboot. Then you downgraded the firmware! Go set it up
5) We'll be using kingroot. Because this is the one that works. Here is the latest link https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=23923
6) Then your good to go! Credits again to Angelito Cristobal.

This twrp work with zb500kl. And I wonder if it work with zb551kl (Im not using zb551kl now). Just give it a try and tell me. Do this
Code:
fastboot boot twrp.img
It will temporary run on your phone so you dont get softbrick if it fail.

sorry to tell but using fastboot in zb551kl is not working because you need to unlock its oem unlock. And unlocking oem unlocking is not available in zb551kl
Not yet

I followed this guy's post so I'm just going to link his directions over here
https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-view-10/development/rom-aosp-pie-t3829466/page3
Got this to boot on my phone, finally.
I have an Honor 7x.
I removed the assert line and uploaded the file here
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Wth0N14bKM1WM2VGXdJN91fPBXzdnsCQ/view?usp=drivesdk
1. Go back to stock using hurupdater, this is a must. I tried coming from a different ROM, and it bootlooped and nothing would stop the bootloop.
2. Factory reset in stock recovery
3. Flash back twrp in fastboot, I used this one https://drive.google.com/open?id=18u...QgwleMIOjsZd7S
4. Flash the rom and bitgapps in one go
5. Factory reset in twrp, format data, and also factory reset in stock recovery
6. It will bootloop you to erecovery, just tap "Reboot" again, and it will boot to the ROM.
7. Enjoy Android P on your phone
This is running pretty damn good for it not to be for our device no bugs as of yet

I don't know but I'm using like a secondary and honestly it's the best rom I used I think so far I really like the havoc os because I play mc5 and to me that one ran the game the best but this honor view 9 pie is running exceptionally well and it plays the game great I can't wait for pie to be optimized for the honor because it's gonna be perfect
I need to unlock bootloader. Got any working gcam? Honor 7x camera is showing unrealistic colour.
is VoLTE working ?
can not install always saying error 7 and that the Rom is not for my device...
Hi new to this phone and flashed rros from the openkirin site using just fastboot so have a couple questions about installing this ROM. First question is the link to the recovery isn't even for a honor 7x but guessing that doesn't matter anymore on a treble enabled phone and do you flash it to the ramdisk? Then after you do get it flashed do you install the ROM as a zip or do you extract it to install as a image? Thanks for the help guys kinda crazy thinking you will have twrp and stock recovery on a phone
