Hey guys,
I'm very new to flashing, and I recently flashed my Le Max 2 with stock android (LineageOS) using TWRP. I used "lineage-14.1-20170715-nightly-x2-signed.zip" and "twrp-3.1.1-0-x2". However, I've been running into some problems like videos getting constantly corrupted, the camera always crashing and also the phone heats up a lot more than before. Because of this, I want to revert back to the Vendor Rom, but the LeEco official website doesn't load for me. Is there any place I could find the ROM that came with the phone, and maybe the same recovery as well? And if so, how would I install it?
Thank you so much for your help!
Hello original vendor ROM is Chinese, Indian or USA. Which model do you have?

Heya! I bought it from Chinavasion, but when I set it up it had everything defaulted to English (US) so I'm not entirely sure :/
If it is X820 or X822 model you can install some EUI based ROM like Cuoco or Small EUI.
You won't be able to revert back to the vendor ROM unless you backed up before flashing a custom ROM. With no backup, you'll be best off either flashing a stock LeEco ROM (either Indian 19s or Chinese 23s) or a modded version of the stock ROM, such as Cuoco92 or Small EUI or Crisbalgreece's Aroma 26s rom. The vendor ROMs are usually not very good anyway, tbh.

Like the title say is it better chinese firmware for future updates, hearing about LeEco problems in the US and India. I have a Le Max 2 had the sellers firmware on it the one without the system update. I was able to install the Indian one 5.8.19S. The way I see this only the chinese firmware is up to 5.9 and have a better chance to get Nougat. Thanks.
You don't have chance to get Nougat from the stock firmware either India or Chinese stock.
you should stick on whatever stock firmware you already have, or lineage OS for the latest android with buggies
no I flashed tablets and smartphones for ages but now I wont to stick with stock firmware. I read that LeEco are working on Nougat updates but I thing the chinese will possibly have it or if not I will update to the chinese the 5.9.2xS. thanks

1. No, unless u install recovery and root. ( I don't see any point here as LeEco is almost dead). also u can come back to Indian anytime u wish.
2. Yes, same as Indian but without Google apps though you can install manually.

Hi,
I would like to sell my X820, my phone is rooted, after installing several roms like cuoco, i put a stock rom ( not sure it was a stock one) 26s...
My question: is 26s is the latest one ? Is it a good rom? I mean, I'm living in France, so with french language..
And..if not, where Can I find a good one?
Thanks,:good:
Hello there,
I recently tried small EUI while being for a year on my stock ROM (16S, build fixnaop5801607292s) to install Magisk. However, due to battery issue (was more draining battery by far) I'd like to come back on my old one.
I have a backup made with TWRP which i can come back to his version but i can't install Magisk due to a patch applied on my ROM (boot image patched by other programs).
I tried another 16S NA ROM but the problem is that there's no French support language and i'm not really used to hear an english voice telling me directions when i'm using my GPS
My girlfriend is still on the same stock rom and she really'd like to play Animal Crossing but cannot due to safetynet and magisk installation issue. We encoutered any real issue on this ROM (instead of fingerprint but we don't really care about it) so that's why.
Does anybody have this build (or any 16S with european language support) or should I try to extract the ROM from my backup to try a clean installation with this one (and pray for Magisk) ?
Thanks in advance
Heyyo, for official EUI ROM? I'd recommend switching to EUI ROM 20s for x829. 16s is quite bugged in comparison.
https://www.needrom.com/download/5-8-020s-x829-le_x2_na/
I do believe 20s x829 is SafetyNet certified as it is a North American / International ROM.
Otherwise? EUI ROM Indian 19s works just fine and is SafetyNet certified.

Other-otherwise? Russian EUI ROM 19s might have European languages but I'm not 100% certain on that...

Heyyo, latest Chinese ROMs are 26s and 28s but they are not suitable for what he was requesting as Chinese EUI ROMs are not officially SafetyNet certified.
I don't have anything against Chinese EUI ROM, it's just not the answer the OP was asking for is all.
Heya First of all thanks for your replies.
I didn't know China 23S had French language, and I'm not a big fan of chinese stock app (even if we can remove it easily)
I'm currently trying the NA version of 20S as you suggested @ThE_MarD and it works pretty well (alarm clock stock app is pretty meh but i'll try to change it if possible)

So could you review the 20s rom?
Im using x829, but i change it to 20s. Im updating to 23s via ota. The weird part is i didnt get ota update to 26s or 28s.

Heyyo, that's because 23s is the last official update from LeEco.
According to ChrisBalGreece 26s and above are made by LeEco developers or a partner so they are on a separate servers.
Official 28s is quite gross with ads but at least the 30s beta apparently has a toggle switch for ads.
Hello everyone.. I just wanted to know if there is an officiel Rom here that i can use to go back to completely stock.. I have sold My phone to a friend and I would like to go back to completely stock recovery and non root..
Can anyone point me in the right direction..
Use eui latest version avialble on XDA and flash it then flash your normal recovery but in my opinion leave Twrp open as I am pretty sure eui sucks coz official version is Android 6.0
You have to search, but here on xda is complete list of all IN, CN, and US roms
I installed the CN 26s, but it looks like a custom rom (it describes itself as "stable release" and in system update, it says there is an update to 6.0.030s "stable release"). I was hoping to find the firmware that would be considered "official" and relock the bootloader after installing so that it is as originally shipped - I'm looking to sell my phone to a UK shop which buys secondhand phones, but it would need to be as shipped by LeEco otherwise they won't buy it. Any pointers to restoring the shipped rom? I bought my phone from someone who had installed Lineage on the phone and had not backed up the originally shipped rom
Mine is running on 10.3.13.0 PFQEUXM or Europe rom. Im trying to install custom recovery and root it later. I'm in the process of downloading the files like the fastboot rom just incase i have to go back to stock or if something goes wrong. I also prefers to use global rom since im not in the Europe region. My question is if its okay to flash Global version or will it brick the device?

I heard somebody accidentally flashed EU ROM on global version of the device when restoring the device using MiFlash.
While it did not brick the phone, the wifi Mac address get messed up. So I don't recommend you to try this.
It is better to flash the ROM that correspond to your device varient, just in case something goes bad.
Switching between EU/GLOBAL works fine, it doesn't brick anything. When I tried it I had to perform factory reset, otherwise the phone did not boot up. So far no one came with confirmed list of differences, it is being speculated that EU ROM has better privacy protection due to more strict EU laws and that headphones volume is limited to conform the EU laws. But again, there hasn't been provided a single proof for these claims and it seems that they are functionally the same, sharing the same features (and bugs). In the past months, Global version received OTA update few days in advance of EU, but the latest update arrived at the same time. Personally I don't have any problem with the EU ROM.
Thanks guys, i was able to install global rom and twrp + root without any problem. One thing i noticed is that EU is on v10.3.13 and global is 10.3.12,but both of them has the December security patch so no worries.
