Custom ROM install

Hi I'm very new to android rooting but after loosing my brand new lg g4 I bought a k3 note to have a play with, I have rooted it using the kingroot app and installed trwp custom recovery with another app my problem is the ROMs I have tried to flash fail? Gapps is fine and installs but the cm 12 ROM from rootjunky fails every time anyone have any ideas? As I said this is my first rooting so I'm probably missing something simple! Thanks for any help

refer this thread on xda forums http://forum.xda-developers.com/k3-note/general/organized-thread-lenovo-k3-note-k50-t3158522
you will get the necessary help there

@Bigbainy Don't install cm12 from rootjunky instead go to index thread by @hackerpower he have every solution and he had made a list of roms plus there are backups by hackerpower too... Or u can to www.needrom.com for latest k3 note roms or there are chinese forums too like bbs.ydss.cn

Thanks guys I downloaded hacker power cm ROM and it flashed successfully but when I rebooted the phone just went back to stock ?

Got it sorted now flashed cwm recovery and the ROMs install fine now

Tried installing LOS, couldn't do it and now i have permanent dm-verity error

Here's an attempted TLR of what has happened
Tried installing LineageOS. Got Error 7. Tried a bunch of things to make it work like editing the updater-script and things like that but it didn't work.
Then I simply wanted my phone to work again. Installed Clean Stock ROM + Stock Recovery straight out of OnePlus webpage. Now I have permanent dm-verity error (tried going back to 4.0.2, disabling dm-verity via fastboot commands and restoring 4.0.3) and still appears.
So yeah, basically that.
I messed up like a month ago too, bricked the OP3T and managed to revive it with a chinese program.
Any ideas on why I can never manage to install LineageOS?
EDIT: After the last factory reset, the phone wouldn't find any wifi network. After an hour or so, it found my wifi and got a 92mb update that fixed the dm-verity error

What firmware are you running and what's your Android version? If you're running 7.1.1 on 4.1.0 you should be good to go just by flashing all the latest LOS files

Can I dirty flash nougat rom over oreo

Hi I'm currently running the s9 port oreo rom beta 1 still
It's a bit buggy and a few bits and pieces that annoy me on it
Can I flash a custom nougat rom over it without having to wipe?
I really really cannot be bothered installing all my apps and everything again and signing in again
I'm not rooted also
I do have TWRP installed tho

no, you need to full restore with odin to go from 8 to 7, bootloader etc needs flashed, use smart switch to backup to sd card and restore back when done

[XT1900-7] Please help me upgrading Android 8.0.0 to 9.0

Hi guys,
just after Android 9 had been released I flashed my device back to Android 8, because I was experiencing wifi-drops every few minutes. The phone worked without problems with that version.
Now I wanna try upgrading to Android 9 again.
My phone says there is an upgrade for Pie available, but when I try downloading and installing it, it always fails. That's why I tried a guide mentioned here in the forum. But installing that version (ab_delta-Blur_Version.27.301.32-29.11.36.payton.retail.en.US) from my SD card also didn't work, because it couldn't be mounted or something.
So, please, tell me, how do I upgrade to 9.0 again? It was a nightmare flashing it back to 8.0. It almost took me like 10 hours or so .
Thanks.

You have to flash the pie firmware completly ota does not work after a downgrade.

Latest Pie for XT1900-7 is here:

[HELP][MAGISK][HAVOCOS][OLIVE]Does anyone get no-wifi after flashing Magisk?

This started like 2 days ago.
I remember using sideload to flash firmware, then havoc rom and then magisk, and everything went well.
yesterday, ramdomly, the wifi stopped working and, after testing several kernels, roms (RR, Lineage, official miui) and testing with the magisk version 24.00, it did not work.
so today I deleted EVERYTHING, and flashed official miui again with XiaoMiTool V2 and only then did the wifi work, I flasheed havoc again, and after flashed magisk, so I assume the problem was magisk and root... at this time I finished flashing the havoc rom and the official firmware, and the wifi works perfectly, so, the point is, did anyone had this problem?
PD: the havoc build i use is 4.8 UNOFFICIAL olive
