Hi, is it possible to LineageOS with ODIN in A300H?
I have a broken touchscreen phone and I want to set it up as a security camera. To do so I need OTG but it won't work unless I install TWRP with LineageOS.
I have already installed twrp_3.0.2-1_sm-a300

Hello!
Just received my Umidigi A3 - MT6739.
Firmware is Android 9, latest release: N Android 9.0 V1.3_20190610 ROM
I would like to flash a custom recovery (TWRP) and flash a custom ROM - like Lineage OS or Stock Android.
This is not the first time I root and flash an android device, however I am having difficulties finding the right files.
I tried to install custom TWRP recovery both through ADB tool and with SP flash tool.
I initially unlocked the OEM and bootloader using ADB tools, then I tried to flash a TWRP recovery image I found online but it turned out to be for Android 8.1 and not Android 9.
The phone switches on and boots normally - however I still don't have a custom recovery nor the possibility to install a custom ROM.
Here's a list of threads I already looked at and tested:

Did anyone who has the same phone manage to do such?
Thanks!
A3 TWRP Recovery
Hi,
It sounds like you have tried all the available options and since I have Android 8.1 mine is not the same. I can tell you that just in case you haven't seen this page yet, it may help, as it worked perfectly for me.

I found some TWRP for that mobile, and inserting a GSI ROM is easy, I have everything in my telegram group t.me/umidigi_es
All GSi I have tested are running into bootloop. Does anyone has get GSI or any Android9 or 10 custom rom running on A3 ?

But your telegram group is silent
ABOUT VERSIONS OF kvt:
2.x is if you're coming from stock Oreo or Pie
3.x seems to be only for stock Pie (otherwise networks don't work) - Oreo modem still has to be flashed though
There is a guide for GSI, but it is outdated, no longer maintained and all links are dead. That's why I'm creating this up to date guide.
If you do not know, what is Project Treble and GSIs, google it first. Proceed only if you know what are you doing. This guide is only for those, who know what is bootloader, fastboot, recovery and TWRP. If you don't, learn that first. There are many guides (for example guides for rooting and Magisk) UNLOCKED BOTLOADER REQUIRED
Guide
1) Download needed files:
- treble recovery: https://mega.nz/#F!b8RgGQCa!48TRsDcJFpaAGNOcc9Fb-A?GxR2TCAA
(this is my mirror, as original links are dead, don't know who is the original developer)
- kvt (find lastest version here) https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=303096&sort_by=date&sort_dir=DESC (developer deivesj)
(this allows GSI to work on Moto Z2 Play with some of it's stock features like fingerprint gestures, device gestures, pass safety-net and more)
- if you want to use Android 9.0 Pie based ROMs and older, you might want to use V7 kvt instead:
https://mega.nz/#!7w5V1KpQ!uoCMqynn5D83trvZ6uXY30S8b9rLiBlXf1JTeMYQ0rc
- if you are coming from stock Android 9.0 Pie ROM, you will need modem from Android 8.0 Oreo
https://mega.nz/file/mxhxXCaI#nJpdQ3nPnc6urkYP8vLrVb_vc_7EsnXK7MXw3U1xohw
- you may need stock recovery https://mega.nz/#!XphFEIxK!yNdHJSakfO90K1ua92SODoqd85nvwRi7h65EA8RkOuI
-GSI of your choice (links below)
transfer kvt to your phone to external microSD, keep the rest in your PC
1) go to fastboot mode (power+volume up simulaneously)
2) flash treble recovery (using fastboot command: fastboot flash recovery 'filename.img')
3) boot to recovery and wipe system, data, cache
Note: after boot to recovery, touchscreen doesn't work. Turn screen off and on to make it work!
4) in recovery, flash kvt zip. It will guide you through
5) reboot back to bootloader
6) flash chosen GSI as system image (fastboot flash system 'filename.img')
7) if you are coming from stock Pie, flash Oreo modem (fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin)
reboot
Note: If you are coming from stock ROM, decryption may fail. The easiest way is to temporarily flash stock recovery. After decryption fails, it will prompt you to reboot and format data. TWRP can't do it, but stock recovery can. After you are booted, you can flash TWRP again.
Where to get GSIs:
the biggest list is here: https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/wiki/Generic-System-Image-(GSI)-list
For Z2 Play, always download arm64 version and Aonly
There is a folder with ported stock ROMS (MIUI, Samsung, Moto...) on mirrors.lollinet but they do not work on Z2 Play. I also tried various stock ROM ports from other sources and they did not work. Custom ROMs fork fine.
Magisk:
Standard Magisk versions may not work. If you get bootloop, after installing Magisk, flash uninstaller. Then you can try phusson's version:

updated treble

Magisk 20.x: https://sourceforge.net/projects/expressluke-gsis/files/Extras/phh-magisk-ten/
I am currently using Pixel Experience Plus (Android 10) GSI, I installed it with latest KVT 2.6 and most stuff works out of the box. If you come from Stock Pie you need to flash the modem file from Stock Oreo to get proper audio during calls, as the modem from Android 9 gets bugged on Custom ROMs breaking the audio during calls. http://www.mediafire.com/file/q8nbpybxc8mjyew/NON-HLOS-Z2P-STOCK-8-OREO.7z/file
Confirmation
Mate can u confirm whether this kvt fix the screen flickering issue when there are more than 3 notifications in the status bar and does it have fingerprint gestures enabled???

I don't use fingerprint gestures so I can't tell you about that. Also I had experiencing some crashes and reboots with this GSI lately, so I will try with another one once I can access internet to download anothet GSI.
CONFIRMED
i confirm it by flashing the flickering issue is gone and the gestures works as well this is by far the most stable KVT released kudos to developers
There are new versions of kvt available. Check the updated first post for link to deivesj's last files.
I did not experience any flickering or other graphical glitches with the new (2.X) versions of kvt (unlike the old v8 one).
Fingerprint gestures work, but not in all gsis

Thanks, I will update the guide
Could someone please give me a mirror of kvt v2.6? androidfilehost is terribly slow...
Hello,
Seem to have lost my network after flashing the pixel experience gsi from stock. imei missing as well. Any help?
It may be problem with modem.
What was your stock ROM? 8.0 or 9.0?
What version of kvt did you use? 2.x or 3.x?
How install?
how is the modem installed?
It's explained in the guide, step 7.
Wrongly flashed modem may cause WiFi, Bluetooth and SIM not to work
Kvt link is down. But you can use LineageOS with treble support now
Hello, i wanted to install some custom os on my samsung a20e device, so i basically wanted to install twrp. Just to mention, i can unlock bootloader and i know how to root it properly. When i flash twrp with odin, my device just bootloops (i think it's the term) on download mode, and i can't turn it off, i can only restart it. The only way to turn it off is to reflash stock os with odin. Can someone please help me or tell me an alternative ? Thanks.
I recently flashed linage os 18.1 on my Xperia TX (Hayabusa). my problem is I can't flash gapps with TWRP (and stock linage recovery). I can't flash magisk and I can't flash any of those with sideload.
root access is only available for adb.
is there anyway to install gapps with adb only or somehow flash magisk?
(I know this device is from stone age. I even got a newer phone but I need this device too)
Hi all,
I experience some issues installing a custom ROM to my Huawei Honor 7 PLK-L01 phone. Can anyone help me or pointing me in the right direction please?
I'm trying to install a custom ROM, but from the ones I tried to install (DigiROM, H7T, Lineage 13, Lineage 13 v2, Lineage 14, Pure, YodaROM), I only managed to get Lineage 13 and Lineage 13 v2 working on my phone. I was able to install all other ROM's, but after installation and rebooting, the phone got stuck on the "Honor" start-up screen and not continue to boot the ROM afterwards.
(By the way, does someone have the MoDaCo Custom ROM (by paulobrien) available? I want this ROM the most, but the download site has been taken offline )
I'm using TWRP v3.2.1-0, but also tried installations with TWRP v3.1.1-0-plank.
With all installations, I wiped dalvik/cache/data/system and installed the ROM by installing the copied .zip file from my SD card, via TWRP.
(Installation via ADB Sideload is not working. Device is not recognized in ADB, even after installing USB drivers. Fortunately, installing via TWRP works for me.)
My phone is unlocked and root is working fine. The phone version was initially C432B121 (Don't know if this changes with each ROM installation?)
Although LOS13 is able to be installed on my phone, with this ROM, I'm not able to charge my phone... When I try to select the USB configuration mode (via "Select USB configuration" via Developer Options), the settings menu crashes after selecting one, with error message "Unfortunately, Settings has stopped."
When setting up a lock screen security (eg. PIN code to unlock phone), the same error occurs.
Furthermore, the camera is not working, but this would be a known issue for this ROM. Hence, on my phone, the camera is also not working with suggested apps as Footej, Camu, or Cameringo, which should deal with this issue.
Does anyone recognize this? Do I have a sort of admin rights issue? Or do I need to install a matching firmware version for each ROM? Or perhaps another TWRP version?
Right now I have installed Lineage OS 13 Reloaded v2.0 (Android 6.0.1) (by Spirtix & Speedo.thc)
Problem solved! Updating the OTA firmware was my solution (C432B121 to B130, then to B180, then B370).
Thanks to DigiGoon, these files can be downloaded here: https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=102830
hello @broek84 - sorry for an unrelated question:
how did you unlock the bootloader of your Honor 7?
thx
