[Kernel] [AK2] [8.1] [MAR2018] Stock Kernel w/ safetynet patch & dm-verity disabled
I wanted to unlocked my bootloader and flash custom mods and themes without losing Android Pay and other apps while staying on stock kernel and unrooted. So, I made this kernel for myself, and I thought I'd share it with the community.
Stock Kernel with Safetynet unlocked bootloader patch (new updated patch), dm-verity and forced encryption disabled. Will work with all 8.0 builds.

Camera Problem NOKIA X6 TA-1099
Hi all, i Purchased 2pcs of Nokia x6 TA-1099 from China and I'm residing in Kenya. The phones are working perfectly fine. Only one problem is one of the phone when i open camera app, the rear camera has redish lines which appear especially in close up. The problem is not there in the other unit which i am using. What maybe the problem? Kindly assist. Do i do factory reset to see if it helps? That phone is used by my sister-in-law and I feel bad because i ordered 2 phones, one for myself and one for her and her unit has a problem. Kindly advice

How to connect Nokia X6 with PC
Hi all
I have one Nokia X6 China Variant, now i want to up Hong Kong Variant.
However, i can not connect Nokia X6 with my PC to copy rom or using adb command to set languages.
Tks so much
https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-6-2018/how-to/ota-nokia-6-1-plus-k-nokia-x6-codename-t3839398
You can refer my guide for updating OS.
Hello All,
I appear to have a mish-mash of a spec!
Box says X6
Phone says 6.1 Plus
Model TA-1099
Build 00WW_2_50A
Android One 8.1.0
So, from the look of it, I have the international build (I'm guessing the WW = Worldwide vs CN = China), but I'm confused by the mix of the International "6 Plus" name & the Chinese model number of TA-1099
Can anyone explain? I'm ultimately hoping to be able to flash the phone to get LTE B20 (800Mhz) added to the Baseband, but need to know what I've got to start with.
Thanks.
Camera x2 tele
Can Nokia x6 camera support x2 telephone mode? As it is dual camera. This will be very handy.

Hello i have exactly the same model and build and the same question, how is it possible to have TA1099 with building ww and Android one? When the updates will end because i read it runs from the release date of the phone and the worldwide model released After the china one , i am in france and the only 4g antenna near my home is a 800Mhz, but it is n't a hardware component ? I dream i could have LTE B20!
