Hi
Recently someone sent me a device from Tecno which is not available in Europe. It is Tecno Pouvoir 4 which comes with 3gb ram 32gb rom, 7 inch screen, Mediatek Helio A22, Android 10.
I take no responsibility for your actions and anyone who is willing to follow this guide should know the consequences as well. If you do not know what you are doing, please do not go ahead with this guide.
This is the method that I have tested and works perfectly!
1.Unlock Bootloader > enable oem unlock , usb debugging after turning on developers options from settings
2. Install drivers, Setup adb and fastboot and type :
Code:
adb devices
check if device is connected properly
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
boot into fastboot
Code:
fastboot devices
check if fastboot device connected properly
Code:
fastboot flashing unlock
Command to unlock bootloader
press volume up key on screen when prompted. Your device will be unlocked and all date will be lost.
3. Next , I used magisk to patch boot.img from stock rom. The size of boot.img reduced to 9Mb from 32Mb.
Copied it from phone and saved it in PC to flash it to device
Code:
fastboot flash boot nameofboot.img
nameofboot.img will be the name of patched boot image you are using.
Next, I flashed patched vbmeta.img which I made with avbtools in python.
Code:
fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
Code:
fastboot reboot
The device also contained vbmeta_system and vbmeta_vendor which I initially patched as well but after more testing, flashing modified has no effect on the outcome if bootloader is unlocked.
FILES HERE
Please use the files from folder "FIles Used" which contains
a. vbmeta_disabled_unsigned > This is vbmeta.img
b. magisk_patched_flashed > this is boot.img
vbmeta_disabled_unsigned should work with any future versions as well.
Make sure you have same stock rom version as listed above if you are going ahead with flashing. These files are from "LC7-H6116BCF-Q-GL-200612V304_Signed"
I have also found a full stock rom to recover this device online which I am sharing for anyone who faces a bootloop during this procedure.
STOCK ROM HERE
If anyone really needs the root, flash the above stock rom and then use the files in this guide.
Good Luck!
Anyone who wants more details about patching vbmeta, device partitions or anything about this device , I am more than happy to answer.
I have not been successful to port TWRP for this device yet. As I am not very interested in ROM development or any further development on this device, which needs lots of extensive work, I am not willingly to go ahead with that.
Good evening, what was sent was done and the bootloader was unlocked
But after inserting fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
Which is vbmeta_disabled_unsigned
The phone no longer works and the tecno logo does not appear or enter the fastboot
please help

Hello,
I have a Tecno Spark 4 air (kc6).
I can't find a stock rom. I read that it's possible to "dump" stock rom from a MediaTek Chipset so I can root it, but I don't know how. Can you help me please? thank you
if someone needs help with restoring your smartphone, please contact me directly via telegram, +31685657429
Dear friends, do not tell me about this problem. Once the phone was rooted, but the root is lost. Apparently due to a firmware update. Now it shows this message when loading. Now it's Android 11, with a security update from 03/05/22, HiOS 7.5.0 (OS7.5-R-P31-201030), build LC7-H6116BCF-R-GL-220311V1358.
How to root a phone without losing information? Thank you!
Hello sir,
Any twrp recovery !!!
DISCLAIMERS:​
This help is specific for MERLIN devices only !
(Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 and Xiaomi Redmi 10X 4G)​
Keep atention. This is an UNOFFICIAL thread.​
This thread was based on the thread by Agent_fabulous. Thank you very much !​
DON'T ask by PM. If you have any question, reply to this thread.​
Keep in mind, nothing is 100% perfect, so you need to read careful
and keep trying before to ask an already answered question.​
Keep your backup files safe and secure ! If you can, encrypt them.​
If you try to flash in "firmware upgrade" mode, bootloader will be LOCKED again !​
Never try to flash in "format all" mode ! Otherwise, you will LOSE all secure and identifying infos for your device. Like IMEI and MAC.​
Never try to share your backups or your security and privacy will be compromised.
USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR ACTIONS.​
Sorry for my bad english.​
GOOD LUCK

DISCLAIMERS:​
This help is specific for MERLIN devices only !
(Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 and Xiaomi Redmi 10X 4G)​
Keep atention. This is an UNOFFICIAL thread.​
This thread was based on the thread by Agent_fabulous. Thank you very much !​
DON'T ask by PM. If you have any question, reply to this thread.​
Keep in mind, nothing is 100% perfect, so you need to read careful
and keep trying before to ask an already answered question.​
Keep your backup files safe and secure ! If you can, encrypt them.​
If you try to flash in "firmware upgrade" mode, bootloader will be LOCKED again !​
Never try to flash in "format all" mode ! Otherwise, you will LOSE all secure and identifying infos for your device. Like IMEI and MAC.​
Never try to share your backups or your security and privacy will be compromised.
USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR ACTIONS.​
Sorry for my bad english.​
GOOD LUCK

I have an Indian version of the device. After updating over the air, the phone became a brick. I am on the territory of the Russian Federation. I sewed the Indian version of the firmware using brom and the SP Flash Tool, lost imei without backups. I studied the topics in detail, I need engineering firmware for recovery, but neither of the two versions is installed. The error is as if the firmware is not for my region (0xC0050005). What options are there?

Did you unlock bootloader?
Did you flash the patched vbmeta?
You need to disable verity and disable verification on vbmeta or you will get a bootloop.

You did NOT flash the vbmeta, see the error.
Try to type the command manually.
Vbmeta is really required because it verifies if any partition was changed.
Device is a Moto G Pure (codename Ellis), I've found little to no support for this device on the Internet, and a friendly redditor informed me due to the nature of the processor's manufacturers (MediaTek), there never will be much support for this model of device. I have managed to unlock the bootloader, and I'm all ready to go with drivers and fastboot and ADB, and I also have a twrp recovery image. My issue is I'm unsure if this is the correct TWRP img as I downloaded one for a similar Moto model (Moto G Stylus 2020, TWRP 3.5.0-0) and fastboot keeps throwing errors when I try to flash or boot this image. First error was 'command is not support' as I was using flashboot boot boot.img, did some research and instead tried flashboot flash boot boot.img which wasn't liked either, threw the error 'image size exceeds file limit'. I changed active partition from a to b and tried both commands, both of which presented the same issue. I even tried compressing the file down to 35mb and it still threw a fit. The TWRP file is only 48mb, what do I do? Further researching the issue is not bringing me much luck

So what should I do to start the rooting process? Do I use a different root program or… wait for support?? I was going to flash LOS as my custom rom too, I guess they don’t support moto g pure either then considering I downloaded a generic moto rom

The stock rim is available at lollinet. I actually have a copy of it and have a magisk patched boot img. I think where your reaching the error is ( and I'm very new so feel free to correct me) the fastboot command. I think it's an a b partition. So it would be fastboot flash vbmeta --disable-verity --disable-verification vbmeta.img

I rooted mine through magisk by just boot image didn't disable dm verity or vb meta I do have root but you can't flash twrp from any other moto g because the moto g pure has a mediatek Helios g25 chip (I think,definitely mediatek tho)and all the others have quallcom snapdragon chips that's why you can't flash twrp in fastboot mode it's crazy no one's compiled twrp yet for this device seeing how easy it is to root. If you need help rooting yours lmk.

Easy all you gotta do is download your rom/firmware you can easily do this through the Lenovo rescue tool once you download your rom/firmware just extract into a folder somewhere you can easily access oh that rescue tool will download the firmware into crogramData\RSA\Download\RomFiles I think even though it says it's in downloads folder at first I couldn't find it for like an hour but anyways once you find the rom just extract it into a folder somewhere you can easily access & take the boot.img and send it or a copy of it into your phone's internal storage after you do that just download magisk 25.2 you know the latest one from johnwu's GitHub page and install that on your phone and you know how the rest goes just go to install magisk select img to patch choose the boot.img you transferred onto your phone let magisk do it's thing once it's done you have to transfer it back into the rom files you extracted remember to rename it back to boot.img because magisk names it something else but once you put it back in it's folder with the rest of the roms files I can't remember if I zipped em back up or not but anyways take that whole file back to the folder where the rescue tool downloaded it CrogramData\RSA\Download\RomFile and just go and adb reboot your phone into bootloader mode and let the rescue tool flash your moto g pure but with the patched boot image and hahahahaha you done oh but you have to have an unlocked bootloader otherwise you can't flash ... boi! Oh btw you'll have root but I can't uninstall system apps can't mount mount system to rw and as far as I know there's no TWRP but use fox's magisk module manager and flash bootloop protector it save my butt couple times already don't flash Sony Bravia engine will cause bootloop idk if I could compile TWRP I would almost 10 years I been doing this ... and still haven't learned to do that...lol

Hi I'm feeling your pain from not having rw with your root. Have you checked out lebigmac's make sysRW script? I had to do it to get RW on my Moto G Stylus 5G cuz Android 11. Looks like I'll have to do it again for this model. Any luck on getting TWRP?
In this Guide i will explain you how you can flash GSI rom in infinix hot 11s
Warning - this can brick your device if not done properly use this guide only if you know how to recover to stock rom using spflash tool
NOTE- I am assuming you have unlocked the bootloader and enabled usb debugging if you haven't done that you can learn to do that from the other guide i made
First you need to download a working gsi for this device you can download the ones we have tested below
Now download and install platform tools using this Tutorial you can skip this if you have already done this
You need to get the vbmeta.img and vbmeta_system.img from stock firmware which you can download and extract using 7zip and then take the both the files from it or ask in our Telegram group
After downloading gsi image make sure to extract it to .img format using 7-zip as
I advice you to move all required files for flashing into platform tool folders in root directory to make it easier or atleast move it to same folder
Product.gsi has been attached (it's same for both NFC and non NFC version)
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
If you are stuck at "waiting for devices" output at this step you will have to follow this video
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta_system vbmeta_system.img
fastboot reboot fastboot (you should enter fastbootd after this command make sure before continuing)
fastboot flash product product_gsi.img
fastboot flash system <gsiname>.img
IF YOU ARE GETTING UNABLE TO RESIZE PARTITION ERROR MAKE SURE TO FLASH YOU FLASHED Product_gsi.img
Now select recovery from volume down button and power button >> go to wipe data and factory reset now reboot to system
~~End of guide!~~
Tested roms -
Ancient os Android 12 vndklite ( best rom if you want to play games on this phone codm runs buttery smooth on 90fps! has a lots of customisation )
Pixel experience Android 12 vndklite (is more stable and bug free than ancient os better memory management and a lot better battery life than stock and even ancient os best rom if you want to use it for daily driving)
For future development and questions join our telegram group https://t.me/infinixhot11s_dev
Edit - I was able to fix all the audio and performance issues by making a magisk module for it download Here (if you don't know how to root this device I have made a guide on that too)
Low call volume problem is also fixed by the module
Edit 2 - stock camera has been ported to gsi and the 50mp camera works now join telegram for more information
Edit 3 - newer versions of gcam bsg supports 50 mp camera
Edit 4 - Android 13 GSI works good and the Bluetooth issues are fixed in latest patches (you can daily drive it)
Quick fixes for GSI you will need after flashing :-
Enable the settings highlighted in the screenshot below by going to settings/phh settings/misc features
For VoLTE to work go to settings/phh settings/IMS Features and enable all 4 options (make sure you are connected to internet so that you can download ims apk)
Reboot

I got it to finally work thanks to everyone for your help and thanks ansh_/ for the wonderful guide
ps: Switching to a non-vndklite gsi did the trick
the gsi flashing is easier then i thought
I tested pixel experience plus (june update), it was laggy, crashing and slow
currently on ancient os 6.4 and its a-m-a-z-i-n-g smooth, fast, no crashes, good game performance and extremely customizable, I highly recommend it
update; ancient started getting a little laggy for some reason and randomly rebooted a few times
so, i switched to crdroid 8.8, it's great nice clean customizable and stable android, with great battery management and performance

Well, your actually might have just hard bricked this device I am afraid.
But I can tell you the steps to flash the stock firmware
1- Download the firmware for your device make sure its the correct one (If it's incorrect then you will hard brick the device)
2- Make sure you have mtk vcom drivers
3- use spflashtool and load the firmware (no need for the bypass tool)
4- make sure you set it to Firmware Upgrade (This is important)
5- make sure your phone is off
6- click on "Download" in the flashtool
7- Hold both volume buttons and plug in the device
8- If your device is still alive it should start the flashing process
Note: You did something that was incorrect when you started to follow this guide and you most likely hard bricked your device. Your phone is gone I think
Please note that I am not an expert on the subject tho
I have bricked this device (One Plus Nord CE 2 Lite) by flashing the unofficial twrp image for this device. Device bootloops in TWRP.
Previously, I had succesfully unlocked the bootloader and rooted this device by flashing the patched magisk boot.img by following the method mentioned in this post (https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/rooting-oneplus-nord-2-ce-lite.4500297/)
How to restore the factory image and recover from this?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
...reboot to fastboot, flash the original boot and vbmeta and you're done ...maybe you have to change back the slot, but it's almost impossible to brick the device
...don't mess around with "Recovery" ...this device has already the newest partitioning system and there is no recovery partition
best regards
I messed up by flashing the wrong twrp image made. (Device was stuck on 1+ logo screen)
Thanks to your post i was able to rescue this device.
I used Oxygen Updater App, payload-dumper-gui and minimal adb fastboot.
Flashed boot and vbmeta with stock img files.
Restarting the device now will boot into fastboot mode.
Changing slots helped a lot.
(fastboot set-active=a/b)
After that, Device booted normally into OS.
... you're very welcome, Sir ...but really, don't mess around with "old school" recovery systems ...they are not needed anymore and furthermore they can't handle the "dynamic super partitioning" ...and again: nobody needs them after the year 2015 anymore
...best regards

Hey can you help me pls, I am in the exact same situation as you but I can't get the stock img files, whenever I use payload-dumper it just gives me system.img and nothing else, could you maybe share your img files ?
Edit: I manged to get some files but still not the boot.img, I don't undestand why it just refuses to give them to me, I redownloaded everything at least 3 times...
Use Payload-Dumper-GUI instead of Payload-Dumper-Go
Hey @NickR01 if possible can you send me an boot.img and vbmeta
I don’t have windows pc so can’t use Payload-Dumper
It will also help future users to unbrick device.

@vikas_anakin I have files for eu variant, can't help you there bud. If flashed it can mess up your device.
If you are stuck with payload.bin extraction... try it with an android device.
Here's the tool for Android.
Payload-Dumper-Android
Here's the guide for it.
XDA Guide
Newb Guide
Follow the guide and download this app to extract the .bin file
Termux App: Termux Github
After the extraction, type fastboot (pc required) commands to flash and change current active slots from A to B if it's stuck in bootloop after flashing.
I hope this helps you recover your device.

Extracting the payload.bin is not an issue, The issue is I don't have stock firmware.
I used https://www.getdroidtips.com/oneplus-nord-ce-2-lite-5g-firmware-flash-file/ but my wifi and Bluetooth are not working after installing it.
Do you have any suggestions on how can i resolve these issues?
@vikas_anakin Download authentic firmware from this app. Files are pulled from OnePlus servers.
Google Playstore: Oxygen Updater
Oxygen Updater Settings -> Enable Advanced Mode
Select device region.
Latest update for holi is CPH2381_11_A.13 as of now.
I extracted the images from the payload.bin found in the Oxygen Updater file (that I had actually successfully used to update my device) and flashed 2 partitions:
fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
I then rebooted and now it's stuck in a boot loop & I can't even access fastboot anymore. Can someone please help?
Thanks
EDIT:
I managed to access fastboot & flash the rest of the partitions to fix it.

Or else you can extract img files from the oneplus rom file.
and flash them using fastboot.
Okay thank you for the reply, would you be able to point me to a official img file ? Or maybe someone has one extracted I could use please? I have looked online, but the ones I have gotten don't seem to work. I have also looked on the oneplus website for an official img but I could not find one.
So after a little more research, I can use another android device with the app Oxygen updater, download the full img.... So I am currently doing that and then ill try use fastboot or twrp to flash. Just wanted to spread info incase anyone else is having issues getting latest official roms for this device.
Hey guys, i have bricked my Oneplus Nord ce 2 lite 5g (Cph2381)
I tried using the fastboot enhance tool to flash a payload.bin file i thought was the right one for the device ..the device went to blackscreen..ive tried switching it on but its not working..ive done alittle research and found out that i should use an msm tool to force flash the initial stock firmware so that it can boot up ...problem is i cant seem to find the right msm tool for Oneplus nord ce 2 lite 5g , which msm tool can i use ? help please

Hey man, I would suggest not going with msm tool or anything.
Just download the latest update file of your device using oneplus updater app, or you can ask for the file if some of your friends has the same device.
use this tool to extract payload files https://github.com/vm03/payload_dumper
Now you can follow the same procedure as here https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ock-oxygenos-firmware-on-oneplus-10r.4465077/
