Welcome to slashadb!
Mandatory disclaimer that I take zero responsibility for your phone or the actions you partake in. This program is for personal use and does not come with any warranty, implied or otherwise.
I'm not a coder, or a dev. Let's get that out right now. But I wanted to make a tool that would allow me to "chain flash" my rom, gapps, kernel, etc... So, I made some batches. Batches turned into batches to control batches, to a simple GUI, then to this. After learning to code all this from scratch though, I may have to change that first statement!
This should be a simple to use tool, it works for everything I've been able to throw at it, and it was a ton of fun making it. This is NOT TO COMPETE with any other toolkit. This isn't meant to be "the best" or "better" than anything else. It was just my after work project, and it was a blast to learn about. I've been using this for all my flashing for a week without fail. I find it faster to open this and click Install TWRP, than it is for me to open terminal and fastboot it myself!
If you're bored, lazy, busy, or whatever, give this a try. If you find something broken, or have a suggestion of something to add, while trying to keep with the theme of "simple and easy to pick up and use" then drop a comment. I built an updater that checks on start, so any additions or modifications I make, you can get too. You can always decline to update as well and keep on using an old version.
I plan on continuing to work on this, because it's a fun hobby for now. Any future plans or known bugs I'll post in post #2.
-Make a nandroid in line with your flashing.
-Flash a rom, gapps, a custom kernel, and xposed, or any combination of them, all at once. You can just walk away and this will flash what you want, only what you want, and do all the necessary reboots and what have you by itself!
-Backup and Restore your user apps WITH appdata! (Note: some user apps don't allow app data backup. I haven't run into a single app that doesn't allow it, but be warned)
-Backup or Restore a Nandroid to / from your PC.
-Make a full SDCARD clone, and restore it for when you have to wipe userdata!
-Backup your camera pics, and your pictures folder right to your PC's Pictures folder, with just a click!
-Make a backup of all your SMS / MMS, and sent / recieved pics, and restore them after a flash. Restores pics IN MESSAGE too! (Tested only on stock MMS app)
New to the Nexus 6?
-Install ADB, Fastboot, and Drivers, with just a click.
-Unlock your bootloader, or re-lock it for warranty work
-One step install root and busybox
-Flash a full factory system image, it'll do all the needed wiping and flashing by itself
-Install custom bootloader, boot.img, root, recovery radio, etc.
-Install TWRP automatically.
-Change your DPI, fonts, bootanimation, take screenshots, record your screen!
-Disable forced encryption, and stop Google Play Store wakelocks / battery drain!
More to come!
Happy Flashing!

Version Information
Status: Testing
Current Beta Version: 1.01
Beta Release Date: 2015-10-07
Created 2015-10-06
Last Updated 2015-10-06
Future Plans:
I want to add in a toggle to switch between Lollipop and Marshmallow support files. That'll happen.
I plan to add some more features, as well as clean the code up fix any bugs people may find.
I also forgot to make the gui able to adjust scale and re-size. So I don't know if it will fit in everyone's monitor for now.
Again, this is just something fun I made and felt like sharing with the community.
Added support for restoring a nandroid straight from your phone is in the works, as well as link to factory images. Also, I want to make all files able to be selected from your phone, so you don't have to download a rom (gapps, kernel, whatever) to your PC if you don't want to.
Known Bugs:
As much as I enjoy the Google Services scripts, they're probably gonna get removed from here. They flash great when I'm running PureNexus or Chroma, but on a factory image, even when using the terminal they seem to hang for no reason and with no apparent cause. I'll re-run, and it goes through fine. Weird.
Sweet!

The screenshots looks fantastic. I'll download and toy around with it.
Looked very nice. I can't wait to give it a try. Thank you for sharing.
"Chance Favors the Prepared"
Thanks for the kind words and checking out my first project. With marshmallow dropping, and after installing that and rooting, gaining R/W and all, I've found some pretty serious (to me at least) flaws in my first try. I'm going to write this from the ground up, with more than one core version in mind (LP & MM). Sorry for dropping this version so early, Hopefully, it'll be back soon, and actually work a bit smoother. Thanks again.
Neat project, gonna sub and see where it goes. Good luck!

For convenience, latest MicroG & Open GApps enabled MTCB/MTCC firmware, in a suitable thread.

They are interchangeable, same partitioning, I would switch between them with a wipe all in recovery. I'd also say equally fast.
I currently use the Open GApps version, recommendable, since it does not require special settings or workarounds, as being 100% Google compatible. It also performs a one time nice Google setup of the unit, beginning with language, account, and so on.
Note to all using this firmware for the first time: since it is differently partitioned from what you had before, you must also perform a wipe all in recovery, ideally just before the first startup (to avoid wasting time), or at any time now.
WARNING: MicroG Core and LP don't work well: contacts are not seen from apps like Hangouts, Google/Voice Search, while True Contacts needs local loading of profile & contacts - from vcards on the internal SD. Therefore I strongly recommend the Open GApps version!
Note also that with the MicroG version, the gms core app must be configured, and Hangouts' service called NetworkConnectionCheckingService must be disabled, for Hangouts to work:
Code:
pm disable com.google.android.talk/com.google.android.apps.hangouts.service.NetworkConnectionCheckingService
TomTom GO storage support is explained in post #45.
TT GO spoofing is in post #392.
Poweramp's early start&restart is also supported by default.
Phone calls via a BT connected phone could be dialed by (always) selecting the MTC Service(aka Headunit), as the preferred dialer.
MTC Sound direct sound control is readily supported, if the associated hardware mod is also done.
Automatic screen brightness control based on location&time is also implemented by default.
Blank logo kernels are in post #600 (get them while they last).
Developer Mode in post #332.
Firmware is also rooted and xposed.
To those who make outlandish claims about this firmware: they are either trolls or firmware is not for them. However firmware supports all rk3188 MTCB or MTCC units. Make your own judgement, and don't get scared away.

BTW, be careful, don't ruin this thread of mine, because I won't open another ever again...

Here's another one: in principle, unless an unlikely bug is reported, I don't reply in this thread to users who are not listed as saying thank you to this post.

Thanks @dsa8310 .. your rooms are great .. I installed microg rom yesterday . Works great . Will try the new one soon. The only question I have is the performance of both roms similar coz I have 1GB Ram

Hi @dsa8310, is it possible to find what version of your firmware that I have installed in my radio. I think I updated yesterday, but not sure if it the recent one that you posted yesterday.
Maybe a tall tell signature or something to look for.
Again, thanks for your work on the firmware. And I hope this section works out for you.

The Open GApps firmware has DPI 240 (as the original) while MicroG has DPI 210 and it appears shifted slightly to the left on 800x480 screens, at least.
It's a detail that could be easily adjusted (parameter ro.sf.lcd_density in file /system/build.prop).
The MicroG specific (gms) app is also present in its corresponding flavor lineup, plus the extra xposed module (for fake signature).
Other than that I don't keep track of versions - it's only the last one that matters.
As usualI I ll be putting the ROMs on the fileserver for everyone.
Where is the donate button ?
Thank you very much for your hard work
I am running right now DSA Rom 5.1.1 with MicroG and its awesome.....
So fast and stable, highly recommended.
Should I switch to open gapps ? I am very happy with MicroG, is it worth it ?
Best regards

I now use the (pico) Open GApps enabled version. I like it because I don't have to configure things and it is 100% Google compatible. I dislike it because of Google ads' undisturbed presence, unlike the MicroG version that avoids them, partially, at least for my set of apps.
There might be observable differences in their footprint size (necessary RAM) and load of system (background tasks). I can't say for sure, since I have a 2GB RAM (upgraded) unit. Furthermore, I run the same set of apps most of time: Poweramp and TomTom GO which have the same heavy requirements (TT mainly).
Perhaps 1GB units should use MicroG while 2GB ones could afford the Open GApps version.
A technical comparison between versions could be done, in a terminal (termux), with commands like "free -m" (free memory) and "uptime" (busybox uptime) (for load average); "busybox ps", too, if implemented.
But, ultimately, it's a matter of feeling: if you feel that one version is more responsive, feel free to use it.
(switching back and forth is facilitated by the same partitioning, though going through a wipe all in recovery seems necessary)
I've got a 1gb joying radio. I can confirm that system boot is much faster than Malaysk 4.4.4, BUT apps like Pandora and Google maps take ages to load and sometimes even freeze. So I'll go back to KitKat.

Have you tried both MicroG and Open GApps? If yes, was it any difference for you?
The system is tuned for TomTom GO, for example, if you make a folder called tomtom/com.tomtom.gplay.navapp/foobar on any of your external storage (the GPS card, usually) then big maps will stay externally. While TT GO, the "free" version (v1.16.1_Build_2077, if I recall correctly), lays around the internet...
(making the folder above will help even if TT is not installed, because the system will stop looking for it, in a loop)

So far I I only used your latest micro G. I thought it might be quicker , because of less Google apps

Well, if you expect all your apps to be supported, try the Open GApps version. It's the pico flavor, minimal setup for Google support.

Are these versions different from what you posted on the other thread? You said on the other thread to wipe before installing the GApps version.
If I can switch between them without a full wipe, I'll give some feedback on which one is faster on 1GB.

No, they are not.
It's possible, but then uninstall by hand three apps: com.google.android.gsf, org.microg.gms.droidguard, FakeGapps1.1, and then reboot.
Hi dsa,

I give it a + for GApps. Still works nice with Google Play and able to use what you paid for with no issues.
Finally got more play time with the latest and I like it.. Using 1G, no upgrade memory at all..
Still need to add a few more apps.. but good to go..
Thanks @dsa8310
Yes, the MicroG version is not 100% compatible, and also needs some extra configurations (described in the other thread, see the mentioned posts - in the OP of this thread - and subsequent ones).
While the Open GApps version is fully supported, and equally fast, no drawbacks at all.
The speed is determined by the mix of apps run on the HU, in any case.
I would suggest that you check out the Open GApps version - make a wipe all (from recovery) just before the first start, and you will enjoy a nice one time Google setup of the unit, commencing with language, account, and so on.
And once you go black you'll never go back!

Exactly what I did. A setup that I have never seen before had to be done. Great Job.
It's Open GApps' merit, not mine. Once the setup is done, everything else falls into place.
Disclaimer: I am not responsible for anything bad that may occur with your device, but I will take all the credit you can give me if it works for you!
Finally, I would like to present first custom ROM for our device (Teclast T8)! It was ported by me from ASUS ZenPad 3S 10 Z500M and this firmware has lots of great features! It was tested for about a month before release, because I didn't want to share beta ROM with a lot of bugs/issues.
This version is only for flashing via TWRP! (it can be found here https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help/twrp-root-custom-recovery-teclast-t8-t3892647)

Brilliant! Thank you Sword900 - GREAT JOB!
Thanks to the developer for this ROM and TWRP. It's a good device let down by lack of software support and removes all the Chinese native apps which I could not remove even with Titanium backup.
I was running TOS 2.0.1 but with a magisk patched boot image which I flashed a long time ago. This makes it simpler.
There are some issues with the TWRP but atleast I can update Magisk without having to patch the boot image and flash it every time.
The zip file in OP, the folder names have a comma after the number as pointed out earlier. Remove that before attempting any operations or you will face weird and wonderful behaviour.
Works like a charm !
I have problem with the sound. When i turn on the volume and play ssomething, i will hear annoying sound (ezzzzzz,,*%$)

Seems like I finally fixed it. You should install new version with all wipes listed, download link was updated. Let me know if you find any other issues.
How did you make this?
I'm trying to do the same with other Teclast tablets.(With P80X)
I would appreciate it if you could tell me.
(I used Google Translate)

I've just ported this ROM from another device with alike parameters (chipset, android os version, etc). There are lots of guides on the net which will help u. Another way is to find or make it manually kernel-source for your device, so u could compile firmwares on your own. But it requires appropriative knowledges in android development. Also u may take a closer look at GSI project as if your stock firmware is based on android 9.0.
I'm not responsible for any damage to your device of any sort.
By flashing this you take responsibility of anything that happens.
Process at your own risk!
If you want to check firmware - please make backup. Better to store all partitions, at least efs and may be modem.
Instructions
1. Install custom recovery - use my twrp
2. Download the zip - firmware
3. Backup all partitions (it least efs) and store somewhere - it need to do - because you can loose imei
4. Full wipe all
5. Flash firmware
Information
My port based on:
firmware: A600NKSU1ZSB6 (Korea version SM-A600N) Android 9.0 with February security patch
kernel: T585XXU4CRJ8 (our stock 8.1 kernel) 3.18.14
As you known - in friday (1 March 2019) was opened beta testing for A6'18 in Korea. It has the same exynos 7870.
@gyogubin public twrp backup with 9.0 stock firmware (all beta versions send as ota update, we don't have clean firmware) https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-a6/how-to/south-korea-twrp-backup-copy-a600n-t3906026
1. the same treble logic - vendor as /cache partition and cache as /hidden partition
2. wifi and bt from lineage (I build special 32bit version to get right libs for port)
3. gps, audio config and etc from our stock 8.1
4. small fixes for camera to get it work
Root
This firmware was with magisk. I.e. boot.img already patched.
If you need magisk - you just need install Magisk+Manager_v7.0.0.apk, install, open manager, then reboot firmware and reopen manager
Do not try install Magisk-v18.1.zip - you will get bootloop
Work
Almost everything works, but you have to remember that this is beta version
Problems
1. keyboard - this is port from phone, it use phone layout. I can set ro.build.characteristics=tablet, but it will cause problems with add languages in samsung keyboard app
Hints
1. rotate home screen - open "Home sccreen settings" and activate "Rotate to landscape mode"
2. battery percentage - open "Settings"-"Notifications"-"Status Bar" and activate "Show battery percentage"
3. hide virtual keys - open "Settings"-"Display"-"Navigation bar" and activate "Full screen gestures". And then you can turn off "Gesture hints".

Wow Valera! Awesome work!
I will wait for the version for t580 if there will be any haha very anxious
Thanks
Also waiting for the T580 wifi Variant
well I could not wait and also install on the t580. Rom is quite fast and has the errors that Valera mentioned. is definitely a good port beyond that some things like the size corresponds to the galaxy a6 and does not suit tablet mode. I hope you can carry a tablet for more adaptation. Beyond everything, it's great and although it takes a few minutes, it pleases me a lot. Hopefully you can make the zip for t580 even if it's a lot of asking a lot of thanks!

4. Full wipe all
5. Flash firmware
Information
My port based on:
firmware: A600NKSU1ZSB6 (Korea version SM-A600N) Android 9.0 with February security patch
kernel: T585XXU4CRJ8 (our stock 8.1 kernel) 3.18.14
As you known - in friday (1 March 2019) was opened beta testing for A6'18 in Korea. It has the same exynos 7870.
@gyogubin public twrp backup with 9.0 stock firmware (all beta versions send as ota update, we don't have clean firmware) https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-a6/how-to/south-korea-twrp-backup-copy-a600n-t3906026
1. the same treble logic - vendor as /cache partition and cache as /hidden partition
2. wifi and bt from lineage (I build special 32bit version to get right libs for port)
3. mali driver, gps, audio config and etc from our stock 8.1
4. small fixes for camera to get it work
Root
This firmware was with magisk. I.e. boot.img already patched.
If you need magisk - you just need install Magisk+Manager_v7.0.0.apk, install, open manager, then reboot firmware and reopen manager
Do not try install Magisk-v18.1.zip - you will get bootloop
Work
Almost everything works, but you have to remember that this is beta version
Problems
1. keyboard - this is port from phone, it use phone layout. I can set ro.build.characteristics=tablet, but it will cause problems with add languages i keyboard
2. usb - mtp mode dnw
3. stock camera app is buggy, use any other (open camera)
SM-T585

If you want to check firmware - please make backup. Better to store all partitions, at least efs and may be modem.

2. battery percentage - open "Settings"-"Notifications"-"Status Bar" and activate "Show battery percentage"
3. hide virtual keys - open "Settings"-"Display"-"Navigation bar" and activate "Full screen gestures". And then you can turn off "Gesture hints".

New updates. Due to exams cant test right now but will do it later i did checked 1st build it nice that bugs are fixed :good:. Will check it after !exams!!!!!!!!
Great job as usual. I haven't been able to find anything wrong. The tablet is more responsive with this Rom rather with the ones built from a lineage base. Do you think that one day we'll have a Dex launcher like the one from the tab s4?
It would be the biggest goal for this tablet.
Again, thanks for your time.
Just curious, is it normal that the setup jumps all the way to sign in for samsung account? It jumps over wifi connections, license agreement, all of the google account setup.

Yes, it's a twrp backup because there's no complete firmware yet. By the way, I've found a bug where I can't change the launcher grid size for both home and apps. There is another one where in landscape mode, it is impossible to see all the apps from the launcher because you can't scroll or move to another page.
Both minor bugs solved by installing nova launcher.

Aaahhhh ok that explains it. Sure hope that when the official firmware is released that @Valera1978 will do a port of it for the T585/580
Thanks for giving T585 a better life
alanloax said:
well I could not wait and also install on the t580. Rom is quite fast and has the errors that Valera mentioned. is definitely a good port beyond that some things like the size corresponds to the galaxy a6 and does not suit tablet mode. I hope you can carry a tablet for more adaptation. Beyond everything, it's great and although it takes a few minutes, it pleases me a lot. Hopefully you can make the zip for t580 even if it's a lot of asking a lot of thanks!

There’s another method that could help you set DPI density to even extreme low or high levels.

Change it to 700 dp
Finally exams are over. Flashed this from yesterday. Every thing's working. Installed google keyboard and pixel launcher. Everything working fine tested stock camera working. Great performance. Thanks for the ROM Valera.
1.Blue light filter is not working
Please port for Tab A6 Spen P585Y.
@Valera1978
How so you get twrp working in oreo? Ich tried my best to get it working 9n the p5xx but tw never recognized the internal andere external SD.

Yo valera why does the notification bar look so giant. Can you pls try getting the framework from tab s5e in the next update. So that everything looks fine. i think its bcz you took it directly from a600n
shouldnt the notification panel look like this

Because this ROM is a port from a phone genius... It's a great base but later Dev might use TAB A 2019 or S4 dump to make it look tablet like as it looks on those models

First thing first,... I'm Just a noob here, I just did some testing things during my quarantine free time and got many errors with this Red Magic (which as far as I know has no update until now for international user). So, If there's something you guys know more than Me, or if I might do something wrong on my guide here, please correct me...
My goal was to get rid of the touchscreen bugs which still exist on International ROM (Oreo 8.1), but I still want the RGB light feature also...
Do it at your own risk!
Here you go:
ROOT for Omni 9.0 Unofficial by Vache and CN ROM 3.26 you can get it here
This root method I got it from here by member changguangyu on Red Magic 3!
Here you go :
I've tried with Fresh stock CN ROM 3.26 (update from without formating, result always failed for google apps at least for me)
install TWRP from fastboot
Download Magisk Manager (using 7.5.1 (267) when this post created)
Extract your boot.img from your Rom and save it to your download folder (i dunno - already tried to put it in another place, it gave me nothing).
Open Magisk Manager and it will say something like Magisk not Installed
Install it and select and patch the boot file you saved before.
It will create magisk_patched.img and save it to your computer.
Enable developer options > make sure to check (ON)USB debugging and OEM unlock on your device
Open command prompt on Windows: reboot to fastboot command :
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
Unlock your device
Code:
fastboot oem nubia_unlock NUBIA_NX609J
Use command :
Code:
fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img
Reboot! and your phone should be rooted now.
Installing GAPPS on CN ROM 3.26 better, and simple method:
with this method, it was much simpler and the result is Google Play can download big files like PUBG Mobile
First, make sure your device is rooted!
Second, make sure twrp are installed (I use the one that came in the same link with omni 9.0 i think)
Third just flash GAPPS get it at Opengapps get it here . I use the pico one...
that's it! everything is smooth at least for me.
Now for a bit tricky part
Installing GApps (Google Play Services, etc) CN ROM only (I'm using 3.26).
This can be done after you root your device!
Open Magisk and go to the module, search for App Systemizer (Terminal Emulator) by Veez21 and reboot your device.
Download Google Installer (Chinese apps) (got it from this thread ) by Teeemoo
Click the blue-button and install everything until all the checklist is finished! After the install is done, don't open any google or add an account yet!.
Go to settings > App info > search for google calendar sync and everything that smells like google set every permission to yes! even storage! yes, Anything! (At first, I did not allow storage permission for play services, and it gives me an error during contact sync!) (Also you may want to check Settings > Notification Management > Playstore > make it open ).
Search for Termux (terminal emulator) on the internet, download the apk and install it. (I think I remembered it using F-Droid)
open termux use the following command :
Code:
su
then
Code:
systemize
then choose option
Code:
1
listed apps will be shown. choose Google apps at which number you want to systemize (mine started on 10 until 15) so i put
Code:
10
enter and then I make it as privilege apps or priv-apps by choosing option number
Code:
2
, and then go back to menu
Code:
y
--- Choose another google apps until it finished!
After all that, reboot!
Start by opening the play store
And Voila :fingers-crossed::good::laugh:
Tips:
Already tested it, some google features will not work nicely if it's not system apps... My solution is :
Install all google apps that i need after Play Store is installed nicely.
Example for Google Assistant (Saying "Hey Google" hot words) : Force Stop Nubia Share, Nubia Voice
Allow all permission, also go to Settings > Power Management > Application Power Management > Your Apps > Regardless of Control.
After that, Open Termux and systemize the Google Assistant.
After Reboot you will be prompted for "Okay, Google" hotword detection.
Again if someone has better tips, please post it...
I also experience some apps that don't run on the background (Whatsapp for example) - u need to run it first and don't clear from recent sometimes I guess.
I tried to download PUBG Mobile, and it says: can't update blablabla... see common ways to fix the problem (anyone knows how to resolve this issue? - (this problem only for big file i think) )
The Chinese Rom is nice, but it gave me a headache sometimes I already allow permission to some apps, when reopen, it goes back doesn't have permission again.... but after making it as a system (priv-app) from the app systemizer (from magisk and use it with Termux), all goes well.
PS: it will be great if someone can test this too, or make this ROM bloat-free! Thanks :good:
*latest update with CN ROM 3.32 = it works with this method...
UPDATE : CMIIW the 3.32 is so buggy for me, for example : we can't hear anything for ringtone after we changed the ringtone using mp3, and more bugs again... ringtone always getting silent by itself after several hour reboot, the most annoying thing is, fingerprint sometimes working sometimes not!. anyone that use 3.32 please share your experience too please...
Great work![emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]
great
I suppose first of all you have flashed custom recovery and then you tried install root

For flashing boot.img I don't need to go to recovery... I just do it via fastboot command without entering recovery... But, it will be better if you have TWRP installed just in case.
