Hi,
I've been thinking buying Ulefone Armor 6 and I'd really wish I could have LineageOS on it.
Is there anyone working with it at the moment?
Some other custom rom could work too.
So far I've been able to find Nokia 5.1 Plus kernel sources which uses same MT6771 cpu and appears to have quite similar hw setup.
I've downloaded Armor 6 stock firmware and found ProjectConfig.mk
ROOT Armor 6
Does anyone know how to root this baby? Can't find anything anywhere.
In a hurry. Thanks!

I searched the forum and found only this topic.
Want to share this news about some backdoors and viruses, link:https://news.sophos.com/en-us/2018/10/02/the-price-of-a-cheap-mobile-phone-may-include-your-privacy/
is there a chance of someone checking the armor 6 and armor 6e for this things?
And I guess this is the only topic about getting custom ROM on these two devices. Correct?
I would be interested in Lineage OS as well for them.
Was looking into that and found out that Armor 6 is Tremble enabled, anyone tried that?

I can confirm there is few suspicious apk's in /system/app, /system/priv-app and /vendor/app.
MTKLogger, MTKLoggerProxy for example.
Thanks to @chankruze after I got root with pbrp and Magisk I was able to rename (disable) all suspicious apk's.

If I can help in any way, let me know. Currently playing with the original ROM just a bit. And it seems there's lot of functionality missing from the pure android. They definitely modified Android 9. Build number is Armor_6E_RF3_EEA_V01.

It seems that Armor_6E_RF3_EEA_V01_user_20190509 rom doesn't have MTKLogger, MTKLoggerProxy or such.
I have not looked properly yet
Scatter file has some differences.
I might try flashing Armor6E rom on my regular Armor6 phone when I have time to play with it again.

Given it's a MediaTek chipset, might it not be simply that MTK* is related to that?

Hi,
I just installed 06-05-2019 update without any problem, but no improvement so far.
Any news on installing armor 6E ROM on an armor 6?
I hoped they would add physical button triggered camera for underwater picture like armor 5.
Exists any Custom ROM for Armor 6?
did anyone install a GSI ROM by Treble?
I tried Resurrection Remix and ViperOS, but it gives infinite loop.
Also unable to install TWRP with Stock Rom, when I installed the stock system did not start.

Yes, MTKLogger was logging atleast GPS location to internal memory. I assumed it was bad and renamed .apk file to .apkz.

Could you test Ressurrection Remix and do the walkthrough to install it, TWRP and root from scratch? I tried but bootloop. and when I installed twrp with Stock ROM, it went missing when restarted. * Sorry my english, i am using google translator
For everyone who posted, I manage to boot successfully, on Android 9 a GSI image from Treble.
Armor 6 phone is an A bootable. A/B didn't work for me.
Just posting letting everyone know it works flawlessly.

Hello everybody!
I'm trying to install LineageOS 17.1 on my Armor 6E (because of interruptions during talking and bad compass), but till today only bootloops. I've rooted it, installed TWRP and tried out this CustomROM: sourceforge dot net / projects / andyyan-gsi / files / lineage-17.x/
Tutorial: www dot getdroidtips dot com / lineage-os-17-1-for-ulefone-armor-6e-android-10
but no success till now...
Dear Friends
I have bought a Huawei Mediapad T8 and I am trying to find a custom ROM to flash it. Unfortunately there is nothing on Cyanogenmod site.
If anyone has any reference site where I can find ROM s for this model please share it with me.
Sincerely
Konstantinos
Mediapad T8 has android 10 - so it can be part of Project Treble since it is 8+ - it means, you can flash GSI (generic system image) of many of custom roms and no need for certain full rom.
But, I guess, you will need to unlock bootloader and got permissive kernel and probably need to remove encryption for user data before got bootable custom rom.

Dear Friend
Thank you very much for replying to my thread. I admit that it is the first time that I heard about GSI (Generic System Image). I am looking for a custom rom so I can use the Play Store that is now missing from most Huawei devices. Unlocking bootloader is not so hard , I can get the code from Huawei in 7 months from now. Dealing with the GSI is something that I can not manage to be honest. I will wait for a custom rom. Thanx again.
Sincerely
Konstantinos
@coa00kt
Actually there are more than 10 Custom ROMs available:
https://fossbytes.com/android-custom-roms/
Dear Friend
Thank you for the link. Which one is for Huawei Matepad T8? I can't find anything.
Please help
Konstantinos
@coa00kt
Take note that any Android OS ( Stock ROM and/or Custom ROM ) you intend to install isn't device's model/brand dependant, but on device's CPU architecture. Almost all Android device's are powered by an ARM CPU.
Dear Friend
I am a noobie. Which ROM do you suggest for Mediatek MT8768 chipset (Octa-core 4x2.0 GHz Cortex-A53 & 4x1.50 GHz Cortex A53)?
Sincerely
Konstantinos
@coa00kt
Can't recommend any because I never used a Custom ROM: I have reasons for this.
Dear Friends
The main reason that I am looking a custom ROM is the advantage of using "Play Store". Otherwise Huawei Android 10 is just fine. Please help me find something that will work 100%. Otherwise I will stay with Huawei Android 10.
Thanx again

Dear friend,
In the meanwhile you can use GPStore alternatives like Aurora store or ApkPure or ApkMirror for apps that can not be found on Huawei's AppGallery.
On the other hand, you can install about 8 to 10 apps from Huawei phone/tablet (before US sticky fingers) in the form of backup and restore them to your tablet. Tutorial like this is simmilar for all phones. Also found some backup on GDrive for HiSuite or usb restore.

Hello Friend
I have installed APKPure , it is very usefull. About 80% percent of the applications are running fine. Unfortunately about 20% require the Google Play Services. I will stick to this solution until Huawei provides me the Bootloader Code (After 12 Months) and a custom rom is created .

Hi
You can just flash GApps pico. It installs Play Store and Google Service.
Do you know if Google apps pico require an unlocked bootloader? What is the process? Do I have to install custom recovery?
Hello.
Please, can someone extract the original apk from the notes and post here? I accidentally deleted mine and now I can't find it. Thanks.
Hi there, i managed to install a google account and a working playstore via this youtube tutorial, and google services is working outside of an irritating notification which you can turn off.

The only thing is i don't know if i can upgrade firmware with out losing google apps again i'm on firmware 10.0.1

i wouldnt recommend installing a custom rom that is not specifically for your device, especially if you are a noobie. the devices appart from the SOC have many components that require specific drivers. in any case, you have to be extra carefull in following the instructions otherwise ou ll end up with a brick. your best bet is to find a recovery (again for your device) and flash open gapps.

But huawei doesn't provide bootloader unlock codes anymore
Is it possible to root Matepad T8 ?
I think you no longer need Custom ROM to use GApps into this device. I have bought this device few days ago and found a way to run GApps. Just open Huawei AppGallery and look for "GSpace", it will solve GApps issue.
Hi all
I have a Tecno Spark 5 kd7s, which I now immensely regret buying.
I bought it after hearing a sales pitch from the lady, even so the specs are still impressive, and I love the camera.
Only thing, is HiOS (on which the Android system is based) is filled with adware, and bloatware, and there is no way of uninstalling the apps. The phone is sluggish, and certain apps simply crash. If there would be a way to remove this rubbish HiOS, and install a generic version of Android. If that was possible, this phone would be an incredible device, I've just had it with HiOS
If anyone is able to assist, it would be great.
Thanks in advance.
GSI (Generic System Image) is what you are looking for.

There are GSI(generic system image) ROMs, but they are built specific to your hardware architecture. Find out what your device's CPU architecture is and then try finding GSI ROMs for that CPU architecture.
Some devices require some modification before they can install a GSI ROM, you'll have to do some researching to discover whether or not you need to do anything to prepare your device to be compatible with the GSI before you try installing the GSI.
GSI ROMs themselves are "generic", but that doesn't necessarily mean that it works on all devices with the CPU architecture that it was built for and the process of installing the GSI is not necessarily the same for all devices.
I'm not the developer of this rom obviously, but the Calyx team recently released CalyxOs for the Pixel 6 and 6 Pro in Beta version.
Let's just use this thread to give feedbacks, opinions about this ROM and how it performs on your device!

I flashed CalyxOS on my Pixel 2XL a couple weeks ago and I'm liking it. I think I can finally dump Google Voice, too, so Calyx on P6 might be my next big move.
I flashed my pixel 6. I have to say the installation was fast and really easy ! I have one problem though, I can't install any apk. The weird part is that I can install app with fdroid and aurora but not from apk files. If anyone knows what I can do tell me
I haven't got around to trying it yet. Will test myself and report back. What about from adb? (adb install ...)

I solved my problem. First the file explorer does not have install privilege by default so I gave it the oermission. Then it was duckduckgo browser fault. It removes the extension part, I had to rename the file with an ".apk" at the end.
It might help someone in the future.

root isn't necessary, just an unlocked bootloader and working USB drivers.
I'm not aware of a list but it would be interesting to see one. Narrowing your question to specific apps might fetch a better answer. At one time I ran /e/ Foundations's ROM and never came across app barriers I thought mattered for a de-googled phone.
Is Calyx OS good for my usage ?

update : found what i need from aurora store and work on calyx v. 3.1.1
I flashed CalyxOS on Friday with MicroG and I have to say I'm not missing anything so far apart from Google Pay. All my other apps work as they should.
The only problem is some of my most used apps are activated via in app purchases which isn't detected by the Aurora Store, so I've contacted the devs to see if there is a way to activate it manually.
All in all I'm really happy with Calyx so far.
Hi, can someone help me go back to stock rom after installing calyxos .
Update after about a month of CalyxOS and one OTA update. Really happy. Was adamant that I would go with GrapheneOS but somehow COS looked good out of the box and fit my use case real well (no microg). Fdroid, Aurora, Signal all pre loaded for me.

Hi everyone. I still use this amazing phone. Currently on latest official firmware android 12 with bootloader unlocked. I decided since I have never formatted it, to now format and reinstall the best firmware / kernel etc cleanly to get it back to it's full potential.
I'm looking for recommendations on android 12 roms, any kernel that increases performance and possibly overclock, and any other tweaks for sound/cameras/software features from newer devices you would recommend.
Also I have a couple of everyday apps I wish to use (namely banking and netflix) that are affected by the unlocked bootloader and won't support my phone correctly. Any way to rectify that without locking the bootloader? If not, if I lock the bootloader can I still use a tweaked rom/kernel?
Thanks in advance!
Is this board dead already?

I don't know, but I think everyone is moving from forum's to Telegram. At least when it comes to custom roms. I wont use Telegram because it wants me to set my phone number, and I can't do that.
Last time I used custom roms was when I had a Nexus 6. Compared to my Nexus, flashing for our Oneplus is a mess. For flashing custom roms, for some roms you need to be on Oxygen 11 and for some you need to be on on Oxygen 12 (which I'm still waiting for). So before choosing what rom you want to try, one needs to decide if you should update to Oxygen 12 or not. Some roms based on android 12 you need to flash from Oxygen 11 or you will loose Widevine L1 if you are unlucky. This is not a problem if you don't care about Widevine.
As you, I want a rom based on android 12 as rom based on android 13 is still under development and might be buggy. I want it to be as stable it can be... The rom I am planing to try first is Flamingo OS 12. This one unfortunately does not have a thread on xda, and conversations is only over Telegram. Here is a guide if you want to try it.
I would not recommend to use any custom kernel as you wont get any help from developer (if you see a bug in the rom), and I doubt there is any gain of using custom kernels on a custom rom.
Sorry to not having any recommendations for you!
Thanks..its sad xda is so dead nowadays. I think I'll just factory reset and keep the official android 12 rom which I already have installed. Do you have any tweaks to propose for sound or camera or anything that can be installed as an addon to the existing rom?

No sorry, no tweaks. I have mostly seen people ask to install Oneplus camera when they are on custom roms as that seems to be the best camera for Oneplus phones. So best is to keep that. Second best camera app I guess is Google Camera app.
For sound I have always disabled any extra sound features (like Dolby Atmos) mainly because I dont want any equalized sound coming from my phone to my car stereo. I already have a DSP for equalizer settings in my car for that. I have tried some equalizer apps for fun but none seems to work for our phone. At least not sound over bluetooth. Is sound on OOS 12 worse than on OOS 11?

I don't know to be honest, it sounds the same to me but I am not so nitpicky. OOS12 is fine in my opinion. Some minor bugs that I think are due to having it dirty flashed over OOS11 (e.g. after most restarts I need to re-enable the automatic orientation toggle for the screen). Battery is better though. I'll stick to it with official camera app and google camera. Most likely lock the bootloader again to avoid issues with the apps that now don't work due to the unlocked. Keep it for a few more months and then move to a new phone. It has been a great device so far.

I would wholeheartedly suggest trying custom ROM. Derpfest is still very actively updated ROM with a lot of customization possibilities. And the community on Telegram is very active. Also derpfest also includes Oneplus Camera app by default as well as necessary Gapps.

The issue is that with unlocked bootloader I can't use some important everyday apps like bank / netflix properly. In any case can you share a link so I see what you are referring to?

Ok, so with bank, it's easy. In Custom Rom you can just easily install magisk and after that, just use a mode to hide the unlock from Gpay and voila! Everything works. I have the Gpay, Revolut and no one knows ****
With Netflix it's even easier. With the same hiding method, you can hide the unlock from all necessary apps, like Netflix or games or whatever, plus if you don't do hardcore changes in the system Netflix will still show UHD content, because of the Widevine L1. To be fair, i'm recommending the custom ROM, because i'm sick and tired of the OOS unfinished and buggy software. It started in A11 and it continues in A12. Looks like the last normal Oxygen was A10, so there's no other choice as to revert to custom. You can read a bit about the differences between OOS and custom Roms here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/guide-a11-rom-picking-guide-2nd-october-2021.4341961/
The rom i've decided to continue on myself is Derpfest, as it's suggested as the most battery stable one with lots of customization and integrated good practices from OOS. The install process is a bit funky but you can try the telegram here: https://web.telegram.org/k/#@DerpFestOP7Series. Ask your questions, read a bit, and when you will feel confident, you can try to install Custom ROM yourself. DON'T FORGET ABOUT BACKUPS!!!!!!!

Just small additional note I'm gonna try to flash this custom ROM myself first in these following days and test it out profoundly. But don't worry, if we will not like the custom ROM, i'll show how to revert back to OG OOS and how to make it not so sucky.

Ok sounds good. One thing I'm concerned, I used to have magisk on official rom but netflix/bank app still didn't work as intended... Are you sure it works with that rom?
In the meantime I'll backup everything to be ready for the procedure.
