Is this rom even for the dual sim XQ-AT52 version?

It's a unified SOM for all Xperia Variants with API29 and Snapdragon SoCs. So yes :good:
My shared Kernels for Magisk are for and from the EU Firmware of the Xperias btw.

Just to add my experience here, I flashed this rom magisk module which entered a seemingly unrecoverable endless bootloop. This was likely as it conflicted with another magisk module or xposed that I have installed, so not the fault of the rom!
However given we've no twrp yet, the best way (after a LOT of research!) to fix this wasn't easy or obvious. I thought I could just flash stock kernel, uninstall magisk, flash magisk again and uninstall the module. Which unfortunately you can't as they remain in the system files and without root, you can't touch them, though with root, it loads and you get the bootloop - so a vicious endless cycle!
The solution I managed to work out, rather than a full clean wipe was to extract the stock boot from downloaded firmware (using Xperifirm), convert it to an img file using unsin (Google this if needed) and then use Android kitchen to unpack, place a certain folder in there (found via the link below), repack and then fastboot flash. This makes magisk operate in core root mode only allowing you to uninstall the module. Once the module is uninstalled, you can simply disable core only mode from the magisk settings.
This saved me from a full wipe!
See here for more details about that unpacking etc

Nice and complicated to Share! Thanks for Your Post! I would suggest next time to remove a specific File from the Firmware before flashing with NewFlasher which keeps Your Data intact. Let Me take a Look which one it was...
Edith: Remove userdata_X-FLASH-CUST-A2CD.sin before flashing or your data will be wiped.
Or in ur case userdata_BLAHBLAH.SIN
You can also try to enter Save Mode next time which works by Holding the Power Button while booting or so. Maybe together with VolumeDown and No USB connected.

Hello, respected developer. (XQ-AT52) I am a user. I installed the rom after patching the boot.img extracted from two versions, the Taiwan version and the Hong Kong version, but both fall into infinite boot twice. Should I use the EU single SIM version?

I've never used a SOM ROM and I'm a bit confused on what you mean by "full camera API2".
Stock, the Xperia 1 ii only has FULL Camera2 API support and RAW output for the main 24mm camera. All other cameras have LIMITED Camera2 API support and no RAW support.
Does the SOM ROM somehow enable FULL Camera2 API and RAW for all lenses on the phone?

Yes, there is advanced support present for Open Camera for example allowing You to use all API2 Features on all Sensors including the Front Camera.
V20071 comes soon btw. Website and GitHub are getting Updates too...

Does using custom on latest generation Xperia Phone still erases some sort of Camera DRM and in the end users are getting downgraded camera performance like in the past Xperias? Or such thing are no longer the case and it is perfectly safe to use custom ROM and switch back to stock ROM whenever needed?

Great Developer
Great Developer, can I ask you one more thing? Unlike Xperia 1& products, Qualcomm's diagnostic port activation order does not apply. (setprop sys.usb.config rndis,eng_mode,adb ) Can you help me with the development of the command? It's small, but I'll definitely sponsor you.

No fancy super nice pictures and no other great blabla here.
Thx @wineds for providing a TWRP backup from the system. It's the base of this.
Thx @SuperR. for his great kitchen.
Little mods:

SuperSU included
Spyware stuff:

no further actions done on this.
For me it's working with the Universal Bootstack. You will find it in the LOS thread.
Flash it with TWRP.

The Stock Kernel if you played to much with the others -->https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=817550096634763383
p.s.: I've read about problem with big sdcards in conjunction with the original B02 rom. I've never been on this crap version, so I can't tell if there's a difference in the behaviour. But up to now I have no problem with my 128GB sandisk card. And yes, it's formated with extfs.
This rom can flash from twrp? What version of twrp?
Thank you, I was expecting something like this.

How did you disable dm-verity? Patch the boot image with the no-verity zip from nethunter?
With the removal of TNL does the Google Location Provider now provide the location information?

Google maps showed me my correct location while beeing inside my house. So i guess it is working right. If not we still have the option to flash/install opengapps to make it run as designed.

What about dm-verity? Did you patch the boot image with the zip file I was talking about? I'm asking because I'd probably do it myself.

Installed the first the Kernel and then the Nougat_7_1_1_B02_we_can_do_it_better_than_zte.zip.
Wipe Cache and Reboot to recovery , than into to the system.

Need a Pin for the first start, but no ok. I could input all numbers and delete it. But nothing go on.

Yes, I have an idea. You didn't read and/or under-stand what you have to flash and what not. You don't have to flash the kernel (it's just in case you played with other kernels, so you don't need to flash the whole system). The thing you have to flash before is the universal Bootstack from the LOS thread. For removing the pin do the following in TWRP:
head to Advanced > File Manager, and go to the /data/system folder. Scroll down and find the two files with the .key extension. Delete both of them (by tapping on the file and then tapping the “Delete” button). Then, delete all the files containing the word locksettings.

thx for the build, but seems I missed something, because the gps is not working without wifi(gps cant lock on).
I tried google and here. coming from NucleaRom flashed only the rom and the universal bootstack.
can we select the apps which we want and which we do not want while installing ?

Tried it with Sigic and GPS test tool, no problem here
I flashed the kernel now the gps its ok(so no problems for me) .dont use the latest twrp 3.1 it has some bugs.
best regards.
I understand you kept this close to stock, but I have 3 questions.
Does it support Live Wallpaper? (stock B02 doesn't)
Can you turn off the lock screen 'None'?
Does it run Daydream smoothly?
You need to put it in the viewer to really tell. I tried on other ROMS, but it was super choppy and jittery to the point of nausea.
Very good battery life, but no MTP connection possible. It's the same fault as with all LOS based roms (based on 7.1.2).

[Guide] [Mate 10 Pro] Treble-Compatible ROM installation and Compatibility list

Introduction
This is aimed to be a complete but simple guide for users which want to know what works in the Treble-World on the Mate 10 Pro and 'how to get there', based on other guides and my own findings
Disclaimer: I am not responsible for what you do with your device, you are free, probably old enough to know what you are doing and intelligent enough to read this through.
For the moment I will only speak about my own tests on a BLA L29 as I don't have the possibility to test everything.
Feel free to share your own discoveries via PM (just reuse the same formatting to make things easy)
Requirement
1. PC/Laptop running Windows 10 with adb and fastboot drivers installed
2. Original Huawei USB Type-C Cable
3. Being able to read and use search when a question arises
Summary
0. General Information
I. Unlock the Bootloader
II. Choose your ROM (a.k.a "What works on what")
III. Install your ROM
IV. Miscellaneous / Secondary stuff
V. Bonus : What to do if I am stuck / Bootlooping
0. General Information
To make things easier for everybody, here are some basic informations about your device and some common knowledge :
How do I get in Download / Bootloader / Fastboot Mode ?
Shut down your device, insert your USB cable. Keep the Volume DOWN button pressed and press the Power button, wait.
PRO TIPP : You may also get there from within android, first enable ADB debugging in developer options, then, on your PC open a command prompt and type "adb reboot-bootloader"
How do I get in Recovery Mode ?
While in Download / Bootloader / Fastboot Mode, take the USB cable out, keep the Volume UP button pressed and press the Power button until the phone reboots.
I. Unlock the Bootloader
We allready have a thread by @otonieru perfectly discussing this point, don't forget the Windows 10 fix :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-10/how-to/how-to-huawei-mate-10-pro-standard-t3709535
II. Choose your ROM (a.k.a "What works on what")
This section isn't complete and should be detailed with time. None of these ROMs is specific for the Mate 10 Pro, but thanks to Treble, most images will work. Device-specific modifications are still needed in future, ask your local dev
1. Generic AOSP (Android 8.0 and 8.1) by Phhusson
Link : https://forum.xda-developers.com/pr...-development/experimental-phh-treble-t3709659
Description : Really basic ROM (basically pure AOSP) which serves as a basis for most of the other ROMs.
What's working : Everything basic
What's not working : VoLTE, SuperSU and Magisk, Signal strength is reported incorrectly, error message at each start, Play Store tends to hang (solution : wipe the Play Store from recents or force close it)
Actual status : Barebones, can be customized in some ways with overlays.
2. LineageOS 15.1 (Android 8.1) by LuK1337
Link : https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-view-10/development/rom-lineageos-15-1-t3753000
Description : If you don't know LineageOS, you should have heard about CyanogenMod (CM). This is a super clean, customizable version of Android, based on AOSP
What's working : Everything basic
What's not working : VoLTE, SuperSU and Magisk (system crashes), Signal strength is reported incorrectly,
root works thanks to addon-su (see Miscellaneous)
Actual status : Working as a daily driver (at least in my case) if you can live with some very small drawbacks.
III. Install your ROM
Once you have unlocked your Bootloader and chosen the ROM your heart desires follow these steps :
1. BACK UP YOUR DATA ! -> You will certainly have to do a factory reset and backing up data should be something natural when flashing something on your phone, even before updates.
2. Download the ROM (latest is probably best, but it's best to read what is said in the respective threads before jumping in the hole.
3. Reboot to the Download / Bootloader / Fastboot Mode (see above)
4. Flash the ROM by opening a command prompt and typing :
Code:
fastboot flash system system.img
where "system.img" is the filename of the ROM you downloaded
5. Reboot the phone by typing :
Code:
fastboot reboot
6. The phone will probably get in a bootloop. Don't panic. This should be normal.
After 4-5 reboot the phone will go in Recovery mode. Make a Factory Reset
7. Reboot
8. Profit
IV. Miscellaneous / Device-Specific stuff
This is probably the more interesting part as it is quite hard to find the correct information for our device concerning these points.
Root
ROMs as Lineage don't come prerooted. To root your phone the only viable solution seems to be addon-su for the moment.
To install you will need to install TWRP (follow the instructions in this link by @Dees_Troy : https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-10/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-1-0-touch-recovery-t3752399 ), boot to TWRP (same as booting to Recovery, as TWRP is the new Recovery). go to advanced -> adb sideload. Connect your phone to your PC and flash the file using
Code:
adb sideload addonsu-15.1-arm64.zip
finally reboot, go to 'developer options' and chose the desired option under 'root options'. Done.
Camera
When flashing a ROM it will probably come with the stock AOSP or Lineage camera which, just say it, sucks on our device form a quality point of view. Here are the answers found to this problem for the moment. Sadly, there isn't one solution which works for everything and everyone.
Google Camera - GCam
Photos work - Gallery works - Videos don't work
Right now his is probably the best compromise if you want something that works, easy to install, while not wanting every little gimmick (in that case you should probably stay on EMUI - The definition of gimmick). Simply install the apk.
Note : there are probably other versions of GCam that work or will work in future, feel free to inform me / us about better working versions.

More information / discussion :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-10/help/gcam-mod-mate-10-t3729078
Camera Port from the Mate 9 - needs root
Photos work - Videos don't work - Gallery doesn't work - Most filters and gimmicks work
A bit more complicated to install. The easiest way found for now is to root first using addon-su and then copy the system folder inside this zip into the respective folders using a root enables explorer like solid explorer
Link : https://mega.nz/#!7hQDhQAK!p2s7jQp9-nhp2-O1U2s2GrBB9UVBhgKDtFfHTq_CHvI
More information / discussion : https://forum.xda-developers.com/pr...huawei-stock-camera-app-treble-roms-t3735169/
V. Bonus : What to do if I am stuck / Bootlooping
Remember when I said to back up ? Well I hope you did, because if you are really bootlooped and a reflash of the system image hasn't helped. you will have to reflash the whole device, which isn't quick.
Gladly @mankindtv has got you covered with his great guide : https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-10/how-to/guide-mate-10-flash-oreo-update-package-t3716814
I hope I could help a bit. Feel free to add your own findings, simply PM me.

That's too bad, android auto uses h264 streaming codec I think. I think this issue will have something to do with hardware acceleration. Have you tried messing around with the acceleration option found in the developer options to see if it might work?
Nice guide! Thank you @ChriKn!
Can you add to the "Generic AOSP (Android 8.0 and 8.1) by Phhusson"'s part that we need to use A-ONLY version of this rom?
I will try as soon as I have my PC.
Sad news, I got a good opportunity on a Pixel 2 XL and sold my Mate 10 Pro (I need my Pure Android AND Quality Camera)

Few quick questions. Did you use the official Asus unlock app? Can you post a link to the twrp download?

You don't need trwp to install magisk. You can use magisk manager to patch the stock boot image, then adb push to install the patch boot image to your device. There are plenty of tutorials on how to do this here on XDA.

Yeah i know, but haven't try it myself and I usually use twrp to install it. That's why I lack the confidence to do so ?.
Have you tried rooting your zenfone 5q?

Is there a dedicated forum for the 5q? I've looked on the app and haven't found one. I find threads for it in all kinds of places though.

Soon after making my original post I downloaded the stock rom from the Asus support page the same place I got the bootloader unlock app from.
After flashing I got brave or stupid and found a site that had a TWRP for the zc600kl so i said what the hell and installed the TWRP idk if I can link it here but I'm sure they'll get rid of it if it isn't.
https://mega.nz/#!OuJHnaJR!aUTwAtRcEukqOi6XMh-FKsYcM22gHEzC35YajMkSOns
It turned out to be TWRP 3.2.3.0 and works perfectly. only issue I had was during the Magisk installation, twrp couldn't mount anything. turns out it was showing my internal storage as 0 but it was an extremely easy fix! all I had to do was just change the phones storage file system from it's original to another then immediately back to the original file system (can't remember specifics) within the twrp advanced menu I think, but it worked just fine and my internal storage read the correct size. Found fix on YouTube easily.
I installed magisk flawlessly then installed xposed seamless now have the best of both and everything is working great phone is stable no issues at all I'm very pleased,
Safety net check fails but IDC I don't need it.
Ridiculously easy root I love this phone ?? oh and now I have iOS 11 Emojis lol
Hope this helps all you Zenfone 5Q zc600kl owners out there.
If anyone wishes to know anything else PM me I'll try to help.

Same here, seems as though this twrp is for the X017DA which has a much larger size recovery compared to the regular X017D which has a stock recovery size and flash limit of 32mb. I tried for hours to get a ported twrp running on the X017D to no avail. Can someone help?

I just finished attempting to flash this recovery using my X017DA and I'm getting the file size too large error as well.
There are NUMEROUS people stating that they've rooted this phone and I'd SURE as hell love to know how.
I unlocked the bootloader at this point for nothing, and it's rather irritating.
It's bad enough I have spotty service on this phone because apparently, it doesn't support band 12 (which is crap) and ASUS refuses to cert it for VOLTE
I love the cameras, and functionality of this phone, and for the price the specs are GREAT, but this WILL be the last and only ASUS phone I'll purchase. Hell, I might even ban their computer components from my home after this fiasco.

[ROM]-Working MIUI 11 EU PIE for Mi Max 2 Oxygen [9]-[stable-ish]i

Android Version : MIUI-11-EU-PIE Easy recovery install.
You should be having proper knowledge of flashing Custom ROM and how to Restore a phone if anything goes wrong.
Take complete backup before taking any action based on this thread. I am not responsible for any action taken by you.
I am just compiling all the information / files available on different websites into this thread, I have patched together with cyber spit, bubblegum, and tape, for a pretty much fully working MIUI-11--EU-PIE running rom. With the help from Mohzuned. I have removed what I believe to be all of the bloat. We worked to modify a working pie vendor. Magisk v20 modified boot for root access, Just install magisk manager.
All Credit goes to respective developer/s. I request XDA moderator and or Developer of Respective files to let me know if I have forgotten to mentioned (give credit) their name in this thread. The Download Links are given directly from respective Developer/s.
You need the following two files to Test MIUI-11-EU-PIE on Mi Max 2 (Oxygen). This ROM recovery is ported from the Xiaomi RedMi with many patches and customized from various sources. This ROM maybe Stable enough for your daily use on Mi Max 2. I have access to two MM2 4/64 Global versions using a 1tb sd card one on At&t the other on Tmobile and MOST features I need are currently working.
1a. Treble Mi Max 2 Recovery 3.2.1 https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=5862345805528056270
1b. OrangeFox Recover 10
https://sourceforge.net/projects/ora...n.zip/download
2. MIUI-11-EU-PIE
https://drive.google.com/file/d/15lRb49s75rqVV0Kg8C16Eao_BuTPvBWr/view?usp=drivesdk
First step:
Start your phone into recovery and Flash a Treble recovery, if already not flashed. Restart into Recovery.
Click Wipe then Advance wipe and clear System, Vendor, Boot, Data, Cache, and Dalvick cache.
Second step:
Now Extract the Downloaded Rom files in Recovery backup folder. You should know where and how to Extract. (Use extract tool for android or pc then copy paste to recovery backup folder.)
Third step:
Click Restore and Select System, Boot, Vendor and Swipe to confirm. Wait for restore to complete. If any errors, Reboot recovery and try again. Or Mount the System, Vendor, Boot and try again. After Restore completes Reboot. Please allow 1-2 Minutes for first boot.
What works:
?
What doesn't work:
?
If I missed anything in the above, kindly let me know to include. If you make any further updates / patches that makes this ROM more stable / perfect or enables new features, please don't hesitate to message me to include in this thread.
I have an old PC running windows with 8gb max HDD at any one given time, So if you would like to make the recovery image into a flashable zip, I'd be happy to update/add it.
If you can afford it, Im trying to save for a computer from this decade, any help is appreciated
https://www.paypal.me/LiamMcGinnisIv
If you would like to use the boot, vendor, system, or any other files, All I ask is pass on the proper credits.
Any Others Who May Have Been Missed
Best of Luck and Happy Flashing )

If you will fix Camera and Torch it will be great! We are all waiting! Thank you!
---------- Post added at 06:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:38 AM ----------
May be it is better to do Port from Mi Mix 2S? Camera and Torch worked on that port.
Bro.......
I cannot find the fingerprint option in the rom..?
Firstly I upgraded from the nougat rom.,it made me to suck....it booted but instantly rebooted to recovery on every boot......
Cannot find the fingerprint option ..,Cannot add the face unlock option due to the camera bug...,it's harder always using pattern/pin.,? flashlight ? issue is negligible.....
But mi cloud has no issues and working fine able to login..
Home button isn't working.,full screen guesture option isn't seen in the rom..
May be it's because of the redmi note 4x....it might be good if it's from max3 or mix2s as u done previously.,only hotspot bug majorly
You are too good bro....,you are beastly fast and tough..,???
Please fix the camera!!!

I'm not screaming "Donate!!!!!"
I do this for free for a phone I no longer use, please be patient.
Considering all sources from xiaomi are outdated, And this is being done again for FREE with modifications on an ancient netbook.
I also can now verify, I have a working modified vendor/boot image that will run gsi images, But again since problems with vendor no camera, Still working on it.
Sorry, I just asked. I understand your position and ready to test new changes
No need to wait for me to port.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-max-2/development/mi-max-2-oxygen-gsi-bootable-vendor-t3987191
I really liked this rom .. I want to use daily ... only thing that is bothering me is the home button and the camera that is not working? already have a solution? fingerprint to taste .. but you can use with the pin normally

Do I needed to format data for this?
Can you install viper4android from xda labs on stock android 10 with magisk.
Install viper4android, reboot and recheck magisk to see if it still works.
Cuz for Android 9, the moment I install any magisk modules and reboot, the magisk breaks and I have only partial root access ( root access given to apps before still works but access to newer apps doesn't)
Also what do you mean by open stock recovery folder? You mean stock rom we download from samfirm

yes, when you download the stock rom from samfirm, it becomes a folder with your stock .tar.md5 files inside, that's your stock rom folder I speak of. I do not know if it works for 9. give it a try and let us know. I have 10 and once you update, you cant downgrade due to samsungs fuse set.
FYI, you can remove the .md5 from the stock rom files for faster loading but odin wont check the integrity of the file.
also, did you know that viper is Los based? other custom roms base off of Los so just replace Los in the guide with the rom of your choice. should work but I don't know, I only stick with Los or Stock.

good morning friend I did all the steps you told me and it remains in the lineage logo I believe that the Roms you sent me is from an A705FN and my model is an A705MN that is why it does not configure because it stays in the logo and then it restarts me in twrp

my model is a705mn as it says in my signature below, your missing a step somewhere, did you format data properly? I flashed my device while writing the steps then again following the steps. also, I didn't post any stock roms and the los rom works with all a70 devices.
in twrp click wipe, then click format data and type yes and hit enter or the check on the keyboard.
when installing los, step 7 requires format data and step 9 requires format data so in the Los guide there will me format data done twice. these steps are for android 10 users, I have a guide for android 9 users that im transferring here but it will be some time. if your on android 9, pm me and ill link that guide to you, otherwise, try that format data or start from scratch by flashing the entire stock rom.

as long as you haven't done anything else trying to get it running(if you have, start from scratch by flahing the entire stock rom using odin) otherwise, boot to twrp, click wipe, click format data, type yes and hit the check box in lower right corner, reboot.
if your on 9, use this guide, its a bit outdated but as I said im working on it.

Viper4android is not a rom
It's a sound driver
It's magisk module.
What I meant is can you install this magisk model or download viper4android v2.7.6.1 from xda labs, install, reboot and check if magisk is still functional on stock Samsung Android 10 rom.
Also isn't android 10 and android 9 bootloader of Samsung rom same... V5 bootloader? Why would it mess with downgrading.?

Just assumed it was a rom, my apologies. I will check that for you when i have time but ive tested many modules with magisk and they work as well as magisk. Android 10 was an overhaul, not the same rom as 9 but still V5, however, thats not really the issue other then for twrp. Samsung devices has a fuse set, when a samsung devices bootloader is upgraded, the device trips or as we say "burns" out a fuse. The device can not be downgraded. After an update from 9 to 10, if you power off, hold both vol keys and plug into pc, in download mode at the top will tell you if a fuse has been triggered and provisioned. This means you cant go from 10 back to 9.

Thank you. Please do report back with viper4android. It's proper working with magisk is critical for me.
I understand your explanation about e-fuse.
But then that last android 10 upgrade that had this charging pcb issue, people did downgraded back successfully to Android 9 then.
How did they do that if e-fuse got triggered?
Lets leave this argument here.
I don't want to sidetrack you from your twrp and root work for Android 10.
Please tell me how to delete img files from the AP file
Or do I just need to replace img files with lz.4 files

Extract the contents of AP file using peazip into a new folder on your desktop. Name the folder AP. Inside the new folder will be the files you need to delete or move out depending on what guide you following. When youve made the necessary changes, repack that new folder with peazip into a .TAR and now its flashable. Do not worry about the .lz4 extension. To delete, as long as its not zipped, right click the file, choose delete. To move the file, right click and hold, drag and drop to wherever and choose move here.
Fyi everyone, ill be making some youtube videos of the instructions for newbies by end of the week. It will have start to finish including bootloader unlock.

no,youll be using twrp to root stock 10 this method allows you to keep root and use modules. twrp does not work with android 10 stock due to some changes in 10. it does however work with custom roms. you can either have twrp, custom rom and magisk root or have stock rom and magisk root.
