Hello,
I am about to buy this phone.
I am surprised to see this forum so empty...
Do you know if/how this phone can be rooted ?
Do customs Recoverys and/or ROMs exist ?
Thanks
I dont know i wait for something on xda bit there is only couple o things un there
Hi,
searching a little on the net, I found that Oppo is reluctant to allowing for bootloader unlock and therefore is kind of blocking custom ROMS development, root, etc.
Therefore I decided to get rid of that phone (moreover I figured out that ColorOS is very limited compared to the custom roms I am used to, and the Wifi at my work could not connect, although it works great with all other phone brands).
I am also having difficulties to sell the phone, nobody really seem to be interested in it.
I bought a Xiaomi Mi 10T pro instead, which looks much better....
Won't buy Oppo again until they change their bootloader policy.
Good luck to you.

There is a specific option in this phone to unlock the boot loader.
Does somebody has a guide to root the find x3 lite?

Has anybody in here bought or used the Coolpad X7? I've been searching for a rom or rooting method for this phone and there's nothing.
Here is a link to the phone specs.

Eiahhh, I also have a Xiaomi Mi4 and in order to install Google on that I went into Xiaomi's store from the phone app and installed/searched for google installer. Maybe try that.
I don't have my phone yet, wonder what to expect of it. Hardware and software seems good, done a nice bit of research on it.
to buy or not to buy
I'm very interested in this phone. Love the form factor and OLED screen. The only thing I'm worried about is the support for the phone. Like you mentioned, we seem to be the first ones talking about it and there doesn't seem to be any information about rooting, ROMs or simply reviews by other people. I'm also wary after a similar-ish phone(umi zero) encountered LOTs of issues after people received them.
If someone could disprove my concerns then I would buy it instantly.
Well there is a coolpad site for support of the phone and I will have Warranty from oppomart where I bought it, but development seems to be nowhere to be found.
www.coolpad.com/en/service.html
Must be forums somewhere for this phone.....
meh
Think I'm going to get it anyways
Cool UI looks bearable but not that polished. Hopefully can find a way to root it.
@Rod, if you could post impressions once you receive yours, that would be fantastic.

Yeah I will. Mine shipped yesterday so I should have it later this week. Paid for expensive shipping. (still cheaper than me shipping something from states......crazy.)
Found a link that knows dazen x7 a little.

Ordered the mediatek variant. Think the snapdragon sale was a scam...
Will receive in about 12 days...
The phone is also getting released in India so there has been a surge in interest from the indian phone reviewers.
Rooting the device doesn't appear to be a problem but like you said, there doesn't seem to be any ROMs for it.
Yeah I seen talk about the Snapdragon but never seen one or heard of it being built.
Hopefully when the phone gets over to India some Roms will come out. I hear coolui is supposed to be nice though, especially the 6.0 version that's coming soon
Found some more ino on this phone. I think this is firmware and usb drivers, but not sure til i get my phone next week to see what model it is.

Just found this site diearthelloverat. There IS a Snapdragon version, maybe not released from China yet.
http://www.coolpad.com/goods/3571.html
I actually did purchase the snapdragon version.
Will arrive in about 10 days.
Good for you. ?. I wonder what one got the better performance.....
Finally got my x7
Ordered the Snapdragon version. Has 800 not the rumored 801
2.7 gb of ram
Most importantly, Google Services doesn't work on the phone. That means I can't use Google Play Store, Gmail or Snapchat and any other apps that require Google Services.
Also, my sim card fails to register! At the same time, even though the language is set to English, large chunks of the phone is still in Chinese. The provided apps are also all in Chinese making management of the phone difficult. In short, unless I can find and flash the Indian Coolpad x7 rom(which has full english support and has Google Services), I can't use this phone and will have to return it.
I caution anyone looking into this phone. At least, don't buy the Snapdragon version...

I also have Snapdragon version. It is easy to root it and install GMS. Everything you can do by phone menu. GMS you can install from Accesibility - Install GMS for trial. And root can install from preinstalled Coolpad security tool, little more difficult, as it is on chineese, I cannot post the link because of system rules, if need, send me PM

Hi i hope hope someone can clear a few things up for me i am a bit confused is this the correct forum for mate 10 pro as well as normal mate 10. I have recently purchased mate 10 pro and could not find mate 10 pro in devices i only found this forum. Also in the development section there are not many roms which i find a bit strange because the phone is not very new. Hope someone can help.

I believe that you are new here and don't know that the huawei phones would not enable us to install stock roms and we are not able now to unlock the bootloader anymore for free lol.
So there is no custom roms dear
Wtf how am I supposed to unlock the bootloader then I need more information quickly so I can cancel my purchase. Is it impossible to unlock bootloader now

Depends on your firmware. If Security Patch is June or later you won't be able to, at least not if you're on C432.
If you are on security patch may or earlier you will be able to use HCU client to get unlock code, but it's paid.
I can only confirm that it's not possible to get unlock code on C432B145+, I can't confirm for other cust but it will most likely be the same.
Edit: if it's a brand new phone it will likely come with factory firmware, unless the shop you bought it from updated it.
Even if I was able to unlock think it's likely that development will be very limited would I be right in thinking this.

I wouldn't say "limited" it depends what your looking for, obviously the best device development is for OnePlus and Pixels imo, but we still have RessurectionRemix, LineageOS, CarbonROM & OmniROM, that's 4 pretty recognisable ROM's :good:
Link to ROM's : https://openkirin.net/download/
To be honest, I had my first Mate 10 Pro rooted, and apart from an Ad blocker and YouTube Vanced there wasn't much I felt any need to install. Now Vanced can be installed without root, and Ad Blocker can run on various browsers, I don't see much point.
The Mate 10 Pro is a brilliant phone, I'm seriously considering selling my S9+ and going back to the 10 Pro - the battery life was far better, and I think the camera was better. I also hate the bent sides on the screen on the Samsung. Only thing I might missis Samsung Pay, but I'll just go back to contactless card.
Thanks to you guys and some further reasearch i was able to reach out to the person on ebay i had bought the phone from and cancel the purchase after explaining the situation with bootloader. I am still reeling from Huwaweis decision to stop bootloader unlocking and hope they one day reverse this decision. I really had my heart set on the mate 10 for obvious reasons but possible lack of bootloader unlock is just a no no for me on my current phone a xiaomi mi6 i regularly change roms and kernels sometimes twice a week so i certainly could not live with being stuck on Mui with no possibility of modifications xposed etc. And i did not want to take the risk of buying to only find out that the bootloder had been patched or something and id be stuck.
So now i have turned my attention to either the oneplus 5 or perhaps galaxy s8plus. Again thanks for your help guys.
so no more people will be getting the unlock script. we are officially **** out of luck until someone figures it out themselves.

OPPO is really crazy ....
Never saw a shìt like this thing.
Their SW Development Team is completely without any Skill.
European and Global variants of Find X that should be the most FREEDOM variants are completely abandoned instead.

Yeah they should have the same set up as OnePlus with OxygenOS, with the ease of unlocking the bootloader. ColorOS is a shambles and other than the software the find X is an amazing device.

Where did you read that from?
I can't believe that no one has searched for the file before unlocking.
But there again, we can;t get hold on the euro rom.
But it looks like selling it soon. Never again oppo
I'm not 2 sure but i think 1500 limit is for the 15 of every month that's all they unlocking at a time
It's ridiculous though especially when OnePlus it is very easy to unlock and flash. Also ColorOS well I will refrain from profanity.
Oppo are part of the same and it would be much better if they used a stock like OS much like OxygenOS.
This would make the Find X for me just sublime, but as it stands with ColorOS, the device is a looker but damn is it beeeep in the user experience.
And it looks like wuxianlin won't be posting the file\script that we need on his site.
Does anyone know of a way to mass tweet?
It's for education purposes

Oppo won't reply from Twitter\Facebook ect
So I doubt oppo gives a **** about us oppo find X owners.
It's crazy Oppo released one of the best designed phones of 2018. Software is it's only let down, I mean I'm still on the October security patch.
Such a great device but even Oppo just after months have forgotten about it, or so it seems.
hi, nobody succed to root find x ?? really ? nobody ? why oppo don't want ?? before having the find x, i had the R7s and there was an apk, oppotools ,to root it !!!! why oppo want we root R7s and other but not the X ????? i don't understand what oppo do this !!!!!:confus::confus::confus:
Oppo
It's incredible vibe I do not understand, I can not sell it anymore.

I hope but it hadn't said that to me before and that's what it started saying this month.
I didn't some research. It seems I have to unlock the bootloader first. Which means I need a code. And I have to buy a code from here?
https://www.dc-unlocker.com
Does this still work? The guide is over a year old.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mediapad-m5/how-to/bootloader-unlock-guide-t3781275
Any advice would be appreciated.
Yes but you need to downgrade the firmware (<8.0.0.136 or similar, i cannot remember exactly) . Because they have fixed, with latest versions, a backdoor used by dc-unlocker to get the bootloader code.
Cheers

Hmm. This is interesting. I actually haven't opened it yet. It's still sealed in the box. Just in case I had to return it. So there's a chance that it could be at a low enough firmware.
I remember i get the code with the 8.0.0.86 firmware, but check the right thread (here) to find the last one to get the code.

Cool. Thanks. So I need to buy number 3 from this list?
http://i.imgur.com/KfOQDZ8.jpg
If you read the forum, the correct item is number 40 "Read Unlock Codes for Huawei Hisilicon Kirin Android phones".
Bye
I just opened it. And it says that my build number is SHT-W09 8.0.0.173 (C567)
So I'm guessing this means it has to be downgraded.
I ended up getting rid of my M3 and never upgraded to an M5 because of not being able to root or root easily. I ended up running the M3 stock for a while and it was a great tablet, but with all the US bans and back doors to your info from Huawei, I got rid of the M3 and had to move to an iPad mini 5. I would have loved a mini pro version, but this will work for now. I liked the media aspect of the M3 and M5, but all the security issues and lack of root I couldn’t do it anymore. Not to mention there isn’t much other there that are good 8” tablets on the market.

... especially because the iPad is so easy to root ...?
we all know jail breaking an iPad isn’t easy, if it is even possible anymore. Most of the reasons to root an android have better applications than a jailbreak on iOS. I like android tablets a lot more than iOS, but the 8” tablet sector isn’t great anymore. Last great one was the Samsung tab s 8.4 that I thought hit all the marks. I’m just saying I like the M3 and wanted to get an m5 but there are way too many negatives to that brand and tablet now.
I currently own the US model of this device. I've done some digging in the forums but I never really come up with very much. If anyone could help I'd be willing to try just about anything to get this phone rooted as long as there's a recovery option. I've read in other threads that the European model can be rooted but the US version has no such luck. If anyone has anymore information please post a reply I would love to get a discussion started. Thanks in advance

Unfortunately, yes your appear to be right. I haven't been able to find anything on this device as far as the U.S. version goes anyway. Apparently, the European version has already been rooted with Magisk and an unlocked bootloader. Although no one has said much of anything about this one. I hope there some development soon!!
A shame these dont yet have bootloader unlock etc.. Its a great phone with Awesome specs on it.
I picked up a Like NEw one for 200.00 (u.s. sprint) version. I use it on t-mobile.

Well it has according to the LG website. Didn't try it out yet.
https://developer.lge.com/resource/mobile/RetrieveBootloader.dev?categoryId=CTULRS0703
• LG V50S: LMG850EMW/LMG850EMWX for the European market
This is the LG G8X (check your device info).
We'll probably have to wait for Firehose to be released for LG Snapdragon 855 to have any hopes for unlocking on Non EU variants
No bootloader unlock available? Was checking developer settings and was able to turn on OEM unlock. Would really like to see some AOSP ROMs available for this phone.
I am very glad to be getting replies here. However, US models are still unrootable as far as I can tell its not listed for the US region but is listed for EU. So far no new updates. Please keep the conversation alive though!! Need a developer to start cracking down on this device please!
If anyone knows any developer's willing to work on this device I will quite literally give them payment to develop a working root method for this device. No joke. I'm not very sure how much power developers have over this device. But I would really love to find out.

How would I go about doing this? Not all that familiar with Xda honestly. I rooted my old phone thanks to this site but I wouldn't know how to contact any developers on this subject.
A shame that this high end phone does not yet have root/rom. (in u.s.) You can pick these up fairly inexpensively (on ebay..as I did)
Hope LG is able to get bootloader unlocked one day or I may have to go back to Xiaomi / Oneplus
I'll keep my fingers crossed.

Well considering this same device is rooted it would likely mean that eventually we will have something. It might take awhile however. The EU version is definitely rooted and even compatible with Magisk having an unlocked bootloader is fantastic. Especially in this time. However since our country is a bit more controlling when it comes to phone data we may not see one until this device is obsolete. Meaning that LG will have made their money on it and therefore feel safe releasing a bootloader unlock officially..
