Advise on cloning roms (private dual boot ) - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All
Few weeks ago i got hold of BQ phone that have safe dual boot option (Device CPU : MSM8952)
Feature is volume up and power to boot to main system , and normal power is to boot to fake os (empty one)
Normal boot is password protected..
What i want to do is to clone this dual boot feature on my nexus 5x or any other ..
reason why i want to do is simple... i cant get this model any more .. its and of line
After downloading all files from the phone i got the following :
adspso.bin
boot.img
cache.img
cmnlib.mbn
cmnlib64.mbn
devcfg.mbn
emmc_appsboot.mbn
fhfs.ldr
gpt_backup0.bin

misc.img
NON-HLOS.bin
persist.img
recovery.img
rpm.mbn
sbl1.mbn
sec.dat
splash.img
system.img
tz.mbn
userdata.img
due to my small knowledge in low level programming plz advise what files above contain information of the dual boot function
If anyone can help ill financially appreciate it
Thanks

In some models the fingerprint problem can be partially fixed by a software update. But in some devices like yours it is a hardware problem and can only be repaired back in the factory.
@AlexRuhl, after all, if the fingerprint don't work in any rom, so I believe it's a hardware problem
http://www.needrom.com/download/leeco-x822-le-max2/
in this link you can download the rom and there are the commands to fastboot
The one AlexRuhl posted is the one you need. I tested it flashing without clean and wifi didnt worked. Then did a factory reset and reflashed it again and everything works fine. The splash is cute not like the official chinesse rom. Im saving this but prolly gonna move to 20s. 18s gave me 132000 antutu while 20s enters some high performance mode that does 143500 antutu. Big difference.
In your case id try to do a wipe/factory reset and flash 20s official rom using recovery jus to test if fp is working correctly cos some previous conf. could be interfering with fingerprint. I.e., my problem with wifi, it didnt even turn on ithought it was fried but actually it is ok.
I moddified scripts.bat like this:

PLEASE, HELP!!!

How To Guide [GUIDE] How to unbrick your Nord N200 5G (ALL VARIANTS) or switch bootable slot (REQUIRES UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER)

I've seen alooot of issues lately of people "bricking" their Nord N200's without a method of unbricking (at the time of writing, only T-Mobile variant has MSMTool)
I've noticed a reoccurring theme. i myself am guilty of doing it and not realizing what went wrong.
It's one of two things:
1. If the device fails to boot "7" times in a row or encounters a hard panic, it will wipe the metadata partition (the decryption key for data/user storage) and may also switch to the alternate slot automatically.
If your device switches slots on it's own, your userdata is gone.. without a decryption key, there is no getting it back (without a very powerful computer and probably years to brute force decrypt)
You will not be able to boot again until you are on the correct slot (dictated by your super partition and other A/B partitions needing to be up to date)
When back on the proper slot, while in fastboot run:
fastboot -w
This will wipe userdata and metadata partitions to allow metadata to be regenerated upon first boot.
Either "fastboot reboot recovery" or use the keys to select reboot recovery. And "wipe everything"
After this you should be bootable. If not...
2. When attempting to prepare the system for flashing GSI, we humans are messing up surprise surpise.
The issue most specifically stems from the dynamic partition located at /dev/block/by-name/super
this partition actually contains 5 resizable partitions : (i've seen up to 7 on this device including -cow (copy-on-write)
system // system_a/system_b //
system_ext // system_ext_a/system_ext_b //
product // product_a/product_b //
vendor // vendor_a/vendor_b //
odm // odm_a/odm_b //
if on you are running stock and your stock is running on slot b for example, your dynamic partition layout is as follows:
system_b
system_ext_b
product_b
vendor_b
odm_b
the issue lies when we go to flash a GSI and start using the commands:
fastboot delete-logical-parition
fastboot create-logical-parition
i myself have done:
fastboot create-logical-partition system 0
this is wrong. it needs a target slot specified, you will have no issues creating the partition or flashing, but it will most likely fail to boot.
correct usage would be:
fastboot create-logical-partition system_b 0 // or use the size values provided by fastboot getvar all as shown in my example of how to switch slots/unbrick below
Prerequisites:
1. stock firmware package or complete dump of all of these FROM THE SAME SOFTWARE VERSION
I have a T-Mobile variant, but for this proof of concept i used the unbranded NA Software provided here https://www.oneplus.com/support/softwareupgrade/details?code=PM1630638351161
Required Partition Images:
system.img
system_ext.img
product.img
vendor.img
odm.img
boot.img
vendor_boot.img
dtbo.img
uefisecapp.img
imagefv.img
abl.img
core_nhlos.img
qupfw.img
keymaster.img
hyp.img
dsp.img
devcfg.img
bluetooth.img
logo.img
tz.img
xbl.img
xbl_config.img
featenabler.img
modem.img
rpm.img
oplusstanvbk.img
vbmeta.img
vbmeta_system.img
If you're on T-Mobile just use the MSMTool unless you prefer the unbranded software.
2. Fastboot Enhanced from this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...enhance-payload-dumper-image-flasher.4310553/
( Or if on Linux, find yourself some knowledge on how to use a payload dumper to extract these images from the stock firmware package )
ALL of the partitions listed above that are NOT the 5 in the dynamic partition have BOTH slots A and B on your phone, you can flash all of these packages to both slots and pick either slot A or slot B when you repartition your super partition.
IT IS THE SUPER PARTITION THAT DECIDES WHICH SLOT GETS TO BOOT
(it is in bold because this is the cause of most "bricks" and vbmeta but more on that in a minute)
How to recreate a usable/bootable super partition:
1: identify which of your slots is capable of booting into stock recovery/fastbootd
If you can't boot stock recovery or fastbootd
flash these stock partitions:
dtbo
boot
vendor_boot
to both slots (_a and _b) on all 3
and these
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta_a vbmeta.img
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta_b vbmeta.img
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta_system_a vbmeta_system.img
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta_system_b vbmeta_system.img
Then try again to see which slot is bootable, if neither you lost too much in your super partition that is needed to run recovery, grab a backup of a super.img from someone on here and fastboot flash super super.img, depending on which slot that super.img is meant for, that will be the slot you will need to be on to proceed with the rest of the fixing
2. Boot into Fastbootd ( fastboot reboot fastboot )
Delete EVERYTHING from the super parition.
even if you don't remember making it, dont skip any of these lines just ignore the errors it spits out
fastboot delete-logical-partition system_a
fastboot delete-logical-partition system_b
fastboot delete-logical-partition system
fastboot delete-logical-partition system_ext_a
fastboot delete-logical-partition system_ext_b
fastboot delete-logical-partition system_ext
fastboot delete-logical-partition product_a
fastboot delete-logical-partition product_b
fastboot delete-logical-partition product
fastboot delete-logical-partition vendor_a
fastboot delete-logical-partition vendor_b
fastboot delete-logical-partition vendor
fastboot delete-logical-partition odm_a
fastboot delete-logical-partition odm_b
fastboot delete-logical-partition odm
Now let's recreated something useable. For Stock version 11.0.5.0 N/A my super image used these sizes (obtained by fastboot getvar all )
For my slot B to Slot A proof of concept i used this for slot A:
fastboot create-logical-partition system_a 0x5AFDC000
fastboot create-logical-partition system_ext_a 0x4B7B3000
fastboot create-logical-partition product_a 0x7338A000
fastboot create-logical-partition vendor_a 0x3EC8D000
fastboot create-logical-partition odm_a 0x37E9000
And for a "bricked" user wanting to stay with slot B they used:
fastboot create-logical-partition system_b 0x5AFDC000
fastboot create-logical-partition system_ext_b 0x4B7B3000
fastboot create-logical-partition product_b 0x7338A000
fastboot create-logical-partition vendor_b 0x3EC8D000
fastboot create-logical-partition odm_b 0x37E9000
Depending on which you choose to create, you can now set your desired slot with
fastboot set_active a
or
fastboot set_active b
then use Fastboot Enhanced to flash either the entire payload bin, or flash each to each _a or _b partition from the long list above one by one.
DO NOT LEAVE FASTBOOTD UNTIL YOU'VE FLASHED ALL OF THESE PARTITIONS (NOT JUST THE 5!) OR YOU MAY BE UNABLE TO GET BACK TO FASTBOOTD!!!
Flashing a payload.bin (.zip) in fastboot enhanced will flash to whatever slot is currently active and it monitors which slot is active.
Last is for vbmeta
If you flash any sort of modified boot image (magisk rooted), gsi, or any sort of image that is not stock, you need to flash the stock vbmeta and vbmeta_system with --disable-verity and --disable-verification or you won't be able to do much if anything at all.
in either fastboot or fastbootd:
fastboot —disable-verity —disable-verification flash vbmeta_a vbmeta.img
fastboot —disable-verity —disable-verification flash vbmeta_b vbmeta.img
fastboot —disable-verity —disable-verification flash vbmeta_system_a vbmeta_system.img
fastboot —disable-verity —disable-verification flash vbmeta_system_b vbmeta_system.img
these are very important if you flash files that are not originally from that specific build version/variant
Happy flashing to you all Hopefully this helps some people.
It surprises me there are no success stories commented.
There was a user in the telegram chat that was waiting (for a few days) to be able to send their device back to OnePlus. I let others try to come up with solution for a few days before i took the time to dive into the issue myself.
Immediately upon following this tutorial, they had restored functionality of slot B on their device and avoided sending the device to OnePlus to fix.
As a proof of concept I updated slot A and recreated the super.img for slot A and could easily go back to slot B by flashing my backup super.img(which was for slot B) and switching active slot back to slot B. So made this guide for them to restore proper setup of the super partition.
I hope this guide can help others as well.
This got me back up and running on slot A,thanks again for the guide!

Know your facts
n ask the guy I helped....
he is the one who corrupted his super partition with @Travisholt92 BS twrp. (As stated by the guy I help himself)
B4 I even touched his sh*t.
I Spent 8+hrs remote desktoping with him last night. He seemed happy when I left the chat
I need to remove the ability to wipe the super partition. Don't blame my software for a user error just because you can't use it while running Android 12 GSI. It doesn't work on any device. On Android 11, my twrp works as intended.

Honestly I think it would be best to make it to where you can only wipe user data, since apparently we have to baby the end users

Unbricked it using the MSMDownloadTools. The phone rebooted into OxygenOS and installed the newest update automatically. I intend to unlock the bootloader again and root the device, so if you can spot where I made a mistake in that list of commands you'll save me some trouble the next time I need to update.
It's very clear that you skipped the step of identifying current dynamic partitions using fastboot enhanced/payload dumper (which would have told you which slot was bootable, which slot to recreate, and would have helped you in identifying partition layout mistakes). Next time I advise taking a screenshot on a computer of the partition layout. but the MSM tool is the easiest unbrick method for Metro/T-Mobile devices
Also sorry for the delayed response, the server went down for maintenance about 20 minutes after you posted
But I'm glad you got it sorted out

Your OP reads like that's only necessary for people with soft-bricked phones. Mine wasn't. I was trying to flash the newest OTA update onto a working, rooted TMO-branded phone. I checked which slot was active fastboot getvar active-slot and did not flash both _a and _b slots for the dynamic partitions.
I now have a working, TMO-branded phone with the newest OTA update installed, but I've read that rooted and bootloader-unlocked phones do not get OTA updates automatically. Is a subset of your OP's steps not the proper way to flash the new OTA payload in the future?
Thanks for clarifying.
Im honestly not sure. My mind doesn't care about stock on the N200 until Android 12 to be honest lol. Awaiting to build a Ryzen based PC to start compiling custom ROMs again. I know the n200 trees are nearly stable enough for daily driver usage. But I don't have a system worthy of compiling in less than 12 hours at the moment.
Better software will come soon enough, you won't have to deal with stock for much longer.

I didn't like the stock global N200. TMO fixes a few niggling issues (global doesn't recognize the CPU version, as an example), but global certainly makes the updating process simpler.
Anyway, I gleaned a lot of information from various posts of yours on this website which were useful, so thanks.
This guide worked for me to get back to stock from a GSI, THANK YOU! Your work is appreciated.
@Travisholt92 I get an error from fastboot when I try to delete/create the partitions.
fastboot create-logical-partition system_a 0
Creating 'system_a' FAILED (remote: 'unknown command')
fastboot: error: Command failed
I'm using fastboot version 28.0.2-debian. Any ideas why I can't recreate some of these partitions?

Hey guys,
I am trying to update my N200 to the newest OxygenOS, because it keeps nagging me to if I don't.
The first thing I tried was to re-flash the stock boot.img from the extracted OTA (which replaced Magisk with the stock recovery, too) - but still kept getting an installation error.
So I followed the steps above, and flashed *that* payload.bin with the Fastboot Enhanced tool - but it keeps boot-looping me back to fastboot mode. I think the partitions have changed sizes or something, and there's a message saying there were unknown partitions in the payload.bin too.
So for now, I'm flashing back to "OnePlusN200Oxygen_10.O.11_OTA_011_all_2203021426_2dd4f42a2d0545a3" and restoring my TWRP backup (which includes a "super" partition, but of that build), but if anybody can advise how I can update it to the DE2117_11_C.15 build, that would be great.
Hopefully there is a way to do it without erasing data. Usually for other phones I just unroot, install OTA, then re-root. But it seems trickier with the partition size nonsense going on here.
Edit: OnePlus download site hasn't updated the links yet, but there was a full OTA posted on XDA a few days ago, link here.
