Hey folks,
My Sister just got a Le 2 X527. Problem is: Shoprom with adware being baked into the ROM.
There is this ROM by Cuoco92 which everyone praises:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/le-max-2/how-to/rom-cuoco92-multilanguage-debloated-t3395175
But it is made for Le 2 Max, as nearly every other ROM here.
Can it also be used for X527 (Snapdragon version)? A posting on a german website seems to indicate this, but i need to be sure before i brick her phone.
Are ROMs interchangeable between Le 2 and Le 2 Max if they are both with Snapdragon CPU?
if not, can anyone recommend a stable ROM with german language and OTA updates??
Right now her phone is unuseable. And i thought i could give the phone back tomorrow, as i am not new to ROMs etc. I just thought geting a ROM for X527 wouldnt be this difficult..
Thanks for any help, as i hope to get it done till tomorrow..
Hello!
Which version of EUI are you running now?
My x527 was deliverd with 16s (geekbuying.com) and was working fine, found an update on www.leeco.re to 19s that i installed as an update (no erasing of data before update) and it works fine also. Why is her phone unusable? Any bloatware apps i could just uninstall or disable...
Bro u can flash all the x526,520 roms not the le2 max
Thanks for your replys!
It was shipped with 16s version too if i recall right.
Rooting and manually removing adware didnt work, as the adware didnt even showed as app or system component! First time for me to see something, but it seems quite common today, that the wholesale vendors make their own kind of modded stock rom, with the adware/Spyware being "baked" into the system, untraceable and removable even with root privileges. Sounds unbelievable, but sadly true.
To the compability: So i can flash all ROMs for X52X Roms, E.g. X527, X526, X52...., right? But no Le 2 Max Rom, correct?
Yesterday i saw a unofficial lineageOS CM13 based release here, and flashed it. Great ROM, but: mobile data is a MESS. Signal weak on 4G and 3G in the middle of our quite huge city. Drops connection every few seconds. Can only be stable on 2G.
Now i am just looking for a stable, german language EUI ROM, IF possible debloated and with OTA, but not necessarily.
Like that one from Cuoco92 ROM for Le 2 Max (https://forum.xda-developers.com/le-max-2/how-to/rom-cuoco92-multilanguage-debloated-t3395175), only for the X527.
Or this BB72 ROM for Mediatek versions (https://forum.xda-developers.com/le-2/development/bb72-how-to-install-bb72-custom-rom-t3497488), only for my Snapdragon X527 version..
My questions:
1. Can anyone provide me a link to such a multi language stock EUI ROM and zip file? I am now slowly getting mad over this, after days of search. Good thing my Cancro/Mi 4 is much better supported by ROMs..
2. Can i flash a stock or modded EUI ROM with TWRP, or do i need to flash back stock recovery first?
3. How do i update the bootloader? Is it updated when i flash the stock ROM? Or can it only be updated manually?
Thanks you all in advance, any help and hint would be extremly welcomed!
Stven
Just to be clear: Any stable ROM FOR X527 would do the trick. It only needs to be fully working, no issues with mobile networks and mobile data (3G or 4G). and MULTI/GERMAN LANGUAGE..
My sister is visiting me tomorrow for fixing the Le 2, driving over more then 100 kilometers to me, and i would be extremely grateful if i would have such a ROM by then.. Otherwise i am pretty clueless.. Too bad she wanted to save the 40€ compared to le 2 Max, because then i could just take the cuoco92 ROM for Le 2 Max..
****.
God bless my cancro.
Another update:
I think i will go with the BB72 ROM for X520. Thanks again to Kr1shna55 for confirming, and i also read it on http://blog.grossoshop.net/leeco-x520-rom-grossoshop-bb72/.
So i finally figured it out.. Its been a "Difficult birth" as we say here in Germany... So thanks again for your help!
Now i just hope that LineageOS 6 / 7.1.1 will become stable in terms of 3G/4G connectivity and signal strength in the next months.. So my sister can enjoy a more stock like UI compared to this EUI "thing".
Thanks again!
Edit: Typos
Hello, guys! Right now I'd like to be able to use Gcam and with MIUI this isn't possible, so I'd like to have recommendations about roms.
I have tried a few ones, but they always have problems. Battery, deep sleep, sd card problems, etc.
So... In your opinion and experience which one would be the best AOSP ROM as today? If possible.... without even a single bug.
My device is a Redmi Note 4x Snapdragon. I have TWRP and root with magisk.
I use mobile data, bluetooth with my car, sd card and I'd like to have a fast fingerprint sensor.
Thank you in advance.
Official LOS 16.0 - can't go wrong.
Bro.. You're in the wrong place.
Try Havoc OS, one of the best ROM I've used till date
Hey guys!
I'm a very recent owner of Mi 9T Pro (less than 24h remaining until unlock becomes available). I'm also a recent consumer (if that's the right word for it) in the custom ROM scene. About a week ago I decided to check out LineageOS 16.0 on my old (Android 4.4.2) phone, and I was blown away by the performance improvement. It really gave my old device a second wind.
So when it comes to my new Mi 9T Pro, the long term strategy is almost certainly to install the official version of LineageOS 17.0 as soon as it becomes available (if at all and boy do I hope it does). However, since the official release might be (as I understand) several months away, it leaves me with a time window to use some other ROM until then. I've checked out LineageOS 16, 17, HavocOS 2.8, 3.0 & Pixel Experience ROM threads in this forum. It appears they all have some or other issues.
And this is where I was hoping to get a suggestion from you guys. What I'm interested in is the most stable ROM currently available for this phone. To be more clear, I'll illustrate what I mean by "stable":
1) Novelty not required.
It doesn't have to be Android 10 necessarily. Stability > novelty.
2) Most commonly used features take precedence.
I would certainly prefer a lag-less UI and no issues with signal reception over working NFC and Bluetooth audio (all 4 issues seem to appear with some regularity in mentioned threads).
Well, that's basically it, I hope you get the gist of it. If not I'll be glad to clarify further.
Just to be clear, I'm really not looking for a perfect solution where there is none. Just the least painful one. MIUI is not an option.
Thank you!
P.S. Sorry if this is a dup. I only managed to find a handful of outdated questions (~2 months old) which had very little engagement to begin with.
I use crDroid 5.8 (5.9 build does not work with global fw &vendor) and all the android 10 ROMs besides LOS 17 have broken NFC and BT .. And los 17 is also not perfect. Slows down after a while. We just have to wait till every K20 Pro / Mi 9T Pro version gets stable MIUI 11. Right now android 10 is not daily drive ready.
I'm using Résurrection Remix with the same build for over 2 month (the last one), and i dont have any bug.
I'm dtarting to have some troubleshootings after 2-3 weeks and it only require to restart to get fixed.
Also i'm not a big user of the phone so at the end of the day there is 70% battery left!

First of all, thank you for your input!
But what about Android 9 based ROMs like LOS16, Havoc-OS 2.8, Pixel Experience etc.? Wouldn't they be more stable based on the fact that Android 9 was already out (for quite some time) when K20 Pro was released? And also because the developers have simply had more time to iron out the issues?

I have basically tried every rom there is on this forum, and multiple vendors, roms later, i can suggest that EvolutionX, Pixel experience plus (pie are both pretty stable. But they have minor issues. Definitely daily driver material.
But! in my suggestion, if you could stick to a debloated MIUI. It would be hassle free.
Pros for using the stock rom.
Fingerprint sensor works faster
Doesn't break safetynet, so.. google pay support.
widevine L1 in other cases.
And most importantly, the camera functionality doesnt break

Thank you very much for your (somewhat unexpected) suggestion!
To be honest, I hadn't really considered debloating, but I will most certainly look into it. Are there some preferred debloating solutions out there?

Follow the steps in the Removing Bloatwares in Locked/Unlocked Bootloader part of the first post in this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/k20-pro/how-to/redmi-k20-pro-firmware-10-3-8-0-9-6-13-t3939647
True, MIUI has way faster and better fingerprint recognition than all custom roms. Sadly I hate MIUI look and feel...
If you want to give MIUI a try, install the xiaomi eu ROM, which is pretty clean and without much preinstalled stuff.
Best is not to use the custom ROMs with ALL the features, since those ROMs are more laggy and buggy.
So if custom ROMs, try android 9 based. I will flash android 10 again only after 2-3 builds which use MIUI 11 firmware and vendor, since I do have a global K20 Pro/ Mi 9T Pro and don't want to lose DRM L1 or NFC by flashing IN or CN fw and vendor. Because most android 10 ROMs require MIUI 10 android 10 fw and vendor (and there is no global MIUI 10 android 10 fw & vendor)
So depends after all, how much you hate MIUI.
I flashed a custom ROM because of the following things
clean stock UI
no gapps
better everyday performance

I guess so.. and sorry brother.. i dont use telegram..
I'd suggest you stick to global vendor..
If it doesn't work, then try chinese..
Widevine is not an issue for me.. but you might stream HD content.. so.. look into it..
And i forgot to mention... Always format data before rebooting.. format data is different from wipe data.. keep that in mind..
You should stick to the process.. it should go flawlessly..

Hi all,
My Note 9 warranty ran out the other day, so I flashed lineage on it. Unfortunately Android Auto doesn't seem to work and push notifications (e.g. Signal, Gmail) don't work.
Lineage for the Note 9 is nightly only, so it's no surprise there are issues, but this is my daily driver and need a stable ROM.
Would be grateful if anyone can recommend one or two ROMs that are stable enough that I won't have these issues.
Thinking crdroid or Havoc?
I don't need that much customisation option, just something that's stable and isn't Samsungs crap fest.
@DevBeard
Apparently official LineageOS support for Note 9 has gone bye bye anyway...
Now I'm stuck with the same question.
@TomDex I've just flashed crDroid (Android 11) and so far so good
i'm thinking of trying [ROM][N9][UNOFFICIAL][LineageOS 18.1][31-01-2021] ...
I'd be interested to know your thoughts if you do. The one thing I'm missing, with crDroid 7, is GCam at the moment
Hello community,
I have problems finding a lightweight and working custom rom with good performance for my Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 (Merlin) device. The model name is M2003J15SS. First of all one question. Should ROMs for devices with codename "Merlinx" also run on my "Merlin" device?
I first flashed (without recognizing it) Pixel Experience for "Merlinx". The phone was working at first, but started lagging after a short time. Therefore I decided to try another ROM because I could not find a fix. The second one was PixelPlusUI. This time i used a correct ROM for "Merlin" but my device wont boot now! I have already unbricked it few weeks ago so I was able to stop the bootloop again. Now I really need some help before I have to do this again...
Does someone have an advice? Would be nice if it is an official ROM.
Thanks and greetings.
Merlin and merlinx is same devices and you can use there ROMs
I recommend you to first flash a global fastboot ROM than custom ROMs
It's can be helpful to reduce lag
Also you can turn off sync , debloat unwanted apps , use mods and etc..
