Modifying mbn files with AOSP rom - Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers

Hello,
I was wondering if there is a way to modify mbn file to allow for vowifi with carriers that dont provide it. I followed the following post to allow my mi 9 running miui 12 to work with vowifi https://community.oneplus.com/thread?id=1284987 I am looking to update to an android 12 aosp rom but I am unable to use the same procedure since there is no diag port on aosp rom. Is there a workaround for this ? Another procedure or a way to enable diag port ? this is my last hope before giving up on this since I tried almost everything and I cant find posts on xda that talk about this. Thank you.

Which ROM do you use?
Please try official PixelOS (recommended) or Lineage Beta by SebaUbuntu.
These are the only AOSP ROMs with working VoWifi. (at least in my case)

I tried all the MI9 available roms android 12 and pixel experience for android 11. sadly I cant get vowifi to work with any of them. I get the volte working but not vowifi. It seems like I need to do the method in that link. Are you also using freedom mobile in Canada ?

Unfortunately opening diag port seems impossible on aosp.
I've tried every possible way to do it, as i had the same problem like you.
On MiUi, vowifi works for you?

Yeah it works but only after I write the mbn file using EfsTools. It sucks honestly that I am stuck with miui. I also tried everything but thought I would post here as a last hope maybe someone has a workaround to get it working.

Probably can be in other devices, Redmi 2 is based on marshmallow
Can anyone give screen shot of flyme 6 of redmi 2
i installed it with twrp 3.0 no issues while flashing
1. themes doesnt work. force closes
2. couldn,t make data work. couldnt add apn settings for jio. keyboard was acting weird. and connectivity app was force closing.
3. camera works (7mp) max
4. video recording works too.
5. tried calling with jio. didnt work for me.
i guess its still in the early stages. we should wait for a better build in the future.

Bro, Not only volte..
Also, We're not able to run 4G internet.
The preferred network type includes only Auto/3G/2G..
No 4G.. that is the reason, internet and voLTE isn't working.
And we'll not get stable release, as this is ported by third party meizu devs, and they always release beta builds.
Earlier, I flashed Flyme 5.
In that version, I wasn't able to boot.
Whenever, I tried to setup my language/country.. it reboots.
These flyme os builds aren't much usable.
They're just for experiencing FlymeOs

the rom is goood but volte and data are not working
Data and 4g working for me
I got data working but no VoLTE. Besides, I am unable to flash any GApps. I removed a lot of bloatware from the system partition and tried a GApps package with 38 MB size but that too is not installing. Guess we need a 10 or even maybe 5 MB GApps package for this ROM lol. Apart from that, the Theme app crashes (can't even change wallpaper) and the stock keyboard is not good at all after coming from Gboard.
As for the UX, I must say MIUI is a whole lot better. This ROM is cramped with all sorts of bloatware which even MIUI doesn't have. No wonder the size is 735 MB even without GApps. It is best to avoid this ROM. This ROM is only usable if you don't use a Google account. On the plus side, animations are quite good.

Android 8.0 on the SM-T285

As many of you heard, android 8 has now been officially released. I will be working to get an AOSP version working on the 7" LTE tablet, I have heard that there may be significant HAL changes so it may take some time. I have just released the august update for the SM-T285, I've been also working to get a stable repo out for this device in the last couple of weeks. Anyway wish me luck.
Update 08/24/2017 - I was able to download the 8.0.0_r4 aosp sources and got it to compile the modified device tree. There seems to be significant changes with some HAL libraries, vendor specific libs are now moved to its own place in the system image. Will now proceed to actual testing and porting.

Great! Is there ANY chance you wil make an extra effort to release this for the SM-T280 also?
AFAIK the only difderence is LTE versus WiFi only [emoji4] ?

I won't be directly developing for the T280 sadly. There may be subtle differences at the kernel level and some components (e.g. GPS, touchscreen) which prevents ROMs for the T285 from working with the T280. However my work with the T285 should greatly speedup development for the T280 once the first custom ROMs arrive.

Is this just non stock roms? I've had stock T285 roms running on my T280 without issue.

I remember some people tried on my CM/Lineage/Omni based roms on their T280 and it failed to boot, though I can't tell the method they used to flash those ROMs so it is possible that their methods are incorrect. As for stock ROMs this is new information for me if that is the case. I am unable to verify these as I don't have a T280, though if there is a dev who would like to try if would be nice.

my oreo build isn't usable at the moment, wifi doesn't work and you can't turn the screen back on after turning it off. Trying to figure out if this is a LineageOS issue or a hardware issue takes too much time, I'm waiting for the first official builds of Lineage OS to start rolling out before I spend more time on this.
Bacoor,
I've just bought a Galaxy Tab A6 LTE (SM-T285) and haven't rooted or done anything to an android phone in over 5 years. Feeling Green as hell! I'm back to being a newbie. Any suggestions you can offer to me on a guide and which TWRP and Android I should install on my phone. I'll need some tutorial help as I feel uneasy. Last Time I did rooting and custom roms was way back on the HTC Hero and then the HP Touchpad to Cyanogenmod.
Well with Oreo comes project treble which does in fact mess with the HAL libraries a lot. Maybe that means there is hope the Galaxy Tab A Line will get "Treble-ized".
Good news if we are.

Finally a standardized platform. It's about bloomin time!
No excuse for Samsung and their poor 2 time upgrades anymore.

Hiii bro....sohail here and i have samsung galaxy tab a6 sm-t285 and i want nougat/oreo update in it plz help me bro.....what can i do..? Please let me know as soon as you can....hope you help me...:fingers-crossed
I am still on Android 5.1.x rooted, and probably only version for T285 which every feature is tested working.
Intended to upgrade to Android 6 or 7, but there isn't any stable firmware which is bug-free (ie. GPS and video recording).
Not optimistic on 8.0 being bug-free when the 6 and 7 not fixed after such a long wait (months).

I'd update to android 7. Its a great update for my Tab A. Samsung removed a lot of bloat in this update and it runs great.

How Do I Test this ROM
I have a T285 and I want to test this rom where do I download it?

Are there any non-stock ROMs that support VoLTE? (MM OK)

I live in a market where Band12 and VoLTE are required to be able to reliably call\text. All the Nougat ROMs don't support VoLTE and I can't find any information on MM based custom roms.
Does Lineage 13 MM support VoLTE? Are there modified stock roms that support it? The LG Crapware is starting to annoy me.

Any Nougat rom can flash the universal VOLTE patch via TWRP --> AOSP based VoLTE Patch
Hope this helps.

I flashed the universal patch zip file and no modem at all. Not even bluetooth or wifi.
It's going to need some tweaking to get it on the G4 but it could be done.

I'm about to throw this at my phone to try it out. We'll see what happens. Going to test using SlimRoms 7.x for 811.
Edit: broke LTE. 3G, Bluetooth, Wifi, etc work still. This is an improvement. Unfortunately since this is my daily use device I cant do any more testing. Maybe I'll buy a 2nd H811 in the future.

VoLTE issue in GSI

I don't know if I am only the one or not, but I can't able call someone or receive from someone and messages too.
Anybody know how to fix this?
I have searched many times and found that it is the issue with Mediatek.
Thanks
edit:-
From AOSP R 300j onwards, PHH is working on VoLTE because now he has a unlocked Realme C11 for testing VoLTE.
VoLTE isn't supported in AOSP ROMs, as someone was told me in other device forum.
But receiving calls and messages probably bugs, i suggest you to go back to MIUI or try reinstall if that can fix.

I have reinstalled many times, but the issue is same.
It seems that in 300j of AOSP R(11) VoLTE is fixed.

sounds good. Do you have a link for this rom?

another question, does the mobile network always work?
I install this Rom GSI from Ponces
And from time to time the mobile network doesn't work.
It works for 2 days and then it doesn't work anymore.
I then have to restart 2-3 times and then it works again for a while.
But then it comes back at some point.
Can you look at that if the problem is with your rom too.
Thanks

I have not tested the mobile network.
Hello, I was interested in knowing if a USB controller would work (like gamesir x2 pro). I see that MTP doesn't work, but I don't know if it's just for file transfer, or if it doesn't recognize anything through usb. Thanks for the help.
