Hello i am avin .I am a student ,this birthday my parents buys me a LeEco Le Max 2 x821. It is very good phone . But I don't like it's stock rom so i tried a few custom rom based on nougat but i was facing camera focus issue so i go back to stock rom and camera is working perfectly fine . So i decided to install small eui and again the camera was not working properly. So i went back stock rom . But from here the real problem happened my camera was not working on stock rom also i tried different stock roms but still it not focusing. And after this worst happened now even the ois is not working now when i open the camera it begins to shakes and makes werid clicking noise Please help me as my parents are not going to buy me a new phone please help me.
Heyyo, hmm unfortunately it sounds like camera focusing issues is sometimes due to firmware upgrades from EUI ROM... Thus far I haven't seen a good method or guaranteed way to upgrade firmware on the camera after these focus issues arise...
Just to double check have you even gone back to stock EUI Recovery and then used the update.zip method to "install" your EUI ROM?

No problem at all!
I'd recommend sticking with official EUI ROM builds and not custom ones when attempting this.
I'd recommend backing up anything important off of the phone as of course data loss is a serious risk.
What I would do is use a PC to download Indian 19s and flash that via TWRP as it should overwrite even the recovery partition. You can find 19s Indian in the EUI ROM firmware thread.
Once that's done? Try flashing the EUI ROM 28s for the Le Max 2 from here using that update.zip method
Http://g3.letv.cn/259/29/16/scloud-...1S-5.9.028S.zip?b=123456&platid=5&splatid=500
Hopefully this gets it going!
The camera is a huge issue. My LeEco Le Max 2 is now my daughter's game pad - the camera stopped focussing, and it turned out it was a hardware defect. It dies quickly. Replacing it is really difficult.
I own a Nokia now. I want a camera that works.

Hi, I am in Canada and just received my new Max 2 x829 and wonder if it is worth it to update the stock ROM or it is working well, I am not an expert and the instructions to update the ROM is complicated to me, however, if the update will solve issues or improve the phone performance, then I might try to follow the instructions.
Thanks in advance for your help,

If you don't update and still using the 16S you will probably get a dead fingerprint sensor.

I have a couple x829 and tried most roms, the best one for me was the stock rom that came with the phones, hands down not even close 2nd.
Heyyo fellow Canadian, so sadly the "international" firmware and ROM it comes with is modified and only built to work on that one version of EUI so it will never receive updates.
The ROM I'd recommend for stability and functionality? Resurrection Remix Marshmallow. That or as others have said Mokee is good.
X829 devices will need a new modem firmware flashed in order for the fingerprint reader to work properly with other ROMs and to try and avoid camera issues and so fourth because the modem firmware definitely does more than modem.
Thanks castuis for your advise, I was thinking to stay with the rom that came with the phone but I had a fear that after setting up the phone adding apps and spend too much time, then the time will come when I have problem and I have to flash the phone with another rom and start over, it is very confusion when my many people talking about changing the rom that come with the phone to solve issues and them you are saying the the best rom is the one coming with the phone, so for how long you are using your phone and do you use the fingerpring reader? how is the camera performance? Did you try the Indian rom 19s (this is the one I am thinking about now)?
ThE_MarD, does the Resurrection Remix Marshmallow have over the air update or you need to do it manually every time? What is the modem firmware?
Okay so as title says i recently bought a LeEco Le Max 2 X829 from gearbest. I had a few questions and was hoping someone here could help =).
I have searched but didn't seem to find much to help me. Well first i was wondering if i should just leave it on the rom i receive from gearbest or is that a bad idea, Also was curious if the phone would work with h2o, It has all the bands but just wanting to get verification from someone else. Thanks.
Hello @AdcMainVayne,
As far I'm concerned this phone works in most European countries and the only band that does not work is LTE Band 20, but the rest should work just as expected. When it comes to the stock firmware available on the X829, I recommend you to install a custom rom like Cuoco92, because of that the stock rom on the X829 receives no updates and comes with a very outdated version of EUI. The link to the Fastboot package for Cuoco92 can be found here.
I would flash the latest Indian ROM after wiping everything since online Chinese retailers are known to add trojans/viruses/etc. Besides the X829 ROM is abandonware and won't get any updates ever.

Flashing the indian rom for this phone would kind of not be very worthwhile as it runs on an older version of EUI and as far as I'm concerned it also runs on an older security update, so flashing a CN-based ROM with gapps would be ideal in most cases,
Thanks for the replies, I guess Cuoco92 is the best custom rom to choose from in your opinion?

If you're looking for a rom that's stable and runs EUI, I would definitely recommend Cuoco92.

I would try official linage, Resurrection remix, MIUI rom. Once you get your bootloader unlocked and TWRP installed you can try any of them. I really hated eui stock rom. Also with h2o you might have to go to a store or call them to have them add your IMEI Sim slot for service.

Sound and camera issues on rr and linage. I mean everything works and buttery smooth. Antutu 150,000 score on rr. I'm on Miui8 7.4.2.4 now I really like how smooth it is. No sound issues. Pretty stable. Kind of similar to eui. It's a a port not official. Android 6. But really like it a. Lot. Kind of hard to get it working the first time. Small eui just lags to much for me.
Crazy fast LTE and I'm on metro pcs.
Which custom rom would you guys recommend on the X722 if choosing between
-LINEAGE 14.1
-PARANOID ANDROID 7.3
-GENESYS 26S
-FULL AROMA 20S
I am using stock EMUI now 26S and it's driving me crazy with play store keeps errorring and restarting and the stupid browser. Also i think it uses a lot of RAM.
Let me know what you think
If you're using stock 26s on the x722, are you sure you'll be able to flash another ROM without issue? Doesn't the stock 26s ROM lock the bootloader down, causing a brick the moment you try to flash any file from stock recovery (TWRP or ROM)? Or are you running the developer version of 26s? I heard the developer version doesn't lock the bootloader down but I'm not 100% sure. All I do know is that quite a few people here have tried flashing stuff over 26s, which has resulted in near-permanent bricks (see the brick thread in this sub-forum). Please correct me if I'm wrong
As for the Play Store errors, not sure why you're getting those. Did you install the Play Store after installing the ROM?

I'm also getting several Play Store errors on my X722. The ROM version reports as 26s, but i'ts probably the banggood store version. Is there any way of fixing this without altering the ROM?

Playstore was already pre installed, just performed an update with the new playstore. I've been reading through this topic on unlocking stock .26S.. this is the link

You were right.. But this means I'm screwed .
As said below also instagram acts strange when accessing the camera and gets stuck or restarts.. Didn't even fully tried my phone since I dont have nano sim card yet.. :crying:

My stock version is EUI 5.9.026S , I really hope this ROM could be changed since it's not working as flawlessly as expected..
For some reason the phone just doesn't work like a 820 chip should work. Neither the stock rom, modified stock. The custom roms based on lineage, paranoid rom are better, but still not as good as the 820 chip phones I tested with the same roms. I don't know if it is software or hardware. I am thinking slow storage...
Rom is EUI, not EMUI.
There is no 026 dev rom
026 stock can be downgraded to 001D rom through stock recovery and then you can flash all these roms.
Anyway, this is a poll topic and you can find a better place to discuss basis stuff
I am running stock EUI 5.8.20S everything is ok, battery is fine., no notifications show though
I tried stock rom Genesys 5.9.26S and Aicp Nougat but came back to 5.8.20S for now.
Notifications can be set - google for EUI notifications problem

Hey Dakok, been following you since the coolpad f1 days on modaco. Thinking about getting this phone. Does the Google HDR+ camera mod work on the elite model?
Also, do you have any personal recommendations on a reliable rom without bugs?
Yes it does. I think that there is a modified one that works with EUI and another one for custom 7.1 roms.
I am on stock 026s EUI yet, so I can't test any but there are many reports that it works fine.
Genesys 26s by Steve Mars is the most reliable rom IMHO.
Paranoid and AICP have minor bugs, otherwise very usable.

You mean that you cannot do it because of 026s EUI? or you just didn't try to downgrade yourself yet?
I was checking for downgrading from stock 0.26 s but it's impossible finding information on the web
I found this portugese video on youtube but i dont know exactly what he is doing there, also the links people refer to from the leeco forum have been taken down..
I cached the links and i find this (click)
But still very hard to understand what they do, could someone make it more explainable how to change with X722 from
EUI version 5.9.026S (Stable) (bought like this) -> version 20s (001D)-> to finally put on Paranoid android 7.3.1 on it? Is it even possible? I really don't want to brick my phone here..
Or should I open a new topic since the other legit ones are closed..
Thanks for everybody putting effort in trying this phone to be customized!
Batyan, a guy from russian 4PDA forum got the archive with two roms.
The first one is a developer EUI rom identified as WIXCNFN5800106140D or 01D (short).
It flashes through phone stock recovery.
The other is Banggood vendor EUI rom 020s, cleaned from China stuff.
This one flashes through fastboot.
01D rom is great since it is the only way to move from stock 026s EUI since it has locked bootloader and you can't do anything to replace recovery, make root or flash another rom.
So. Put that 01D (update.zip) in your phone and flash it through stock recovery (key combination or through phone settings or manager, not sure)
Or you can start it from EUI file manager (not sure).
Now you have 01D rom, you have unlocked bootloader and you can flash any other custom rom.
My advice is to flash Genesys 026s first since it is EUI 026s and it may be good to have latest
partitions flashed. Later you can try paranoid, aicp...
Don't flash lineage 15 (oreo) since it may make some problems regarding partitions.
Use CrisBal TWRP since it seems to be the most compatible.

Now one final question, and I'm sure many people find this question usefull : Since at this topic there are some people with brick, is this a safe way to do it or is it a chance for a brick even if I do everything correct?
Build nr is : WIXCNFN5902607031S

The only way to "hard" brick it is to flash stock 026s through twrp.
Paranoid but a little bit hard to do it for noobs, probably.
Poll Is corrupt
If paranoid ROM is the best... Then I'm a lepracon with lepra....
Its slow as hell, typing this takes ages... When I press a letter 7 seconds late it response... When some one called me I need to press 1100000 times before this ROM gives a reaction...
Also the builder doesn't respond to my mail. So, its what it is. Just a crappy ROM.
Merry Xmas

Maybe you have any problem with your phone.I have paranoid since 08/12/2017 and I can say that it is the best rom that I have tried.Very very fast almost without any issues or bugs and It is incredible experience for the user.
Paranoid is the best for ROM to check what is the true snapdragon 820.
Stock rom no problem. Also phone get hot as hell

On my x722 is weird camera not connect, I already flashed it 3 times, no support
Hi can anyone help. I have a Le Max2 x829 with intermittent fingerprint recognition. Reading on the web I believe there is an update? My problem is that if there is an update how to I update as there is no 'software update' in the menus.
Any suggestions?
Cheers Chris
Heyyo, I also own an x829... and I'm sorry to break the news to you but that NA 5.8.016s build of EUI ROM is garbage. YouTube randomly freezes, VoLTE is unstable (I couldn't test it since no VoLTE in Canada for my carrier heh) and other bugs like notifications not working on some third-party apps because of the over-aggressive low memory killer settings...
The real bummer? The NA 5.8.016s build has software updating disabled in both the ROM and the recovery.... so the only way to switch EUI ROM versions or to any custom ROM is to unlock your bootloader, flash a different version of EUI ROM recovery or TWRP.
Here's the guide I used back in the day and it worked perfectly for my x829.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/le-max-2/how-to/protocol-backup-stock-rom-flash-stock-t3517151
Good luck!
Oh, if you want to switch to a custom ROM? I recommend flashing a newer firmware version.

Hi. Cheers for the info. Looks a bit complicated. Might give it a try as long as I don't brick my phone.
Hello Guys, after the years i want to reactivate my XZ1 with Stock Rom, so the nearly question is custom rom yes or no?
I think for my child 9 years is stock rom okay and safe he don´t has a bank or online banking or like that, is there any Opinnion that make a Custom Rom sense on the XZ1 and if that what is the best on versus the old stock rom?
I think he will use the camera most, but in custom roms i have read that there are issueses with the Custom Rom on the camera?
Give it a good Custom rom for this device where all work fine? thanks
Can anyone told me make it sense or not

I would not want my kids foto's all over googles servers. But that's everybody's own free choice ofcourse.
Did Headset work and all is fine?

Definately download the stock firmware first. I forgot, and I'm having a hard time getting the right version.
I did not check headphones yet, but audio/video is all well. Currently I have another OS (Evolution) installed, I might revert back to LineageOS in a few days. I will check headphones then.
Main issue I'm having now is the mobile service connection. It's very unreliable, and the data is always off. Also on Evolution OS, so it might be the phone's hardware. (Did not check out of the box.)
Edit, okay, back to LineageOS 17.1. Don't know how, but the modem works now.
It was about this file: amss_fsg_poplar_tar.mbm
I think because I installed Lineage 19 without simcard.
I tried to flash stock ROM, but could not get it to work.
A lot of "invalid Zip format" errror messages...
So I tried LOS 17, and it al worked, then dirty installed 18, and then 20. And modem worked, but then failed.
Back to 17.1 again, and up till now no problemos.
