Is it possible to install this ROM directly using fastboot or ODIN, i.e. without recovery?

Any way to get magisk on this?

Does FlymeOS backport security fixes from the latest android release (i.e. Nougat at the time of writing)? Because FlymeOS 6.x is still based on Android 5.1? I also wonder why they made this phone so development unfriendly. Closed bootloader and didn't release kernel/device tree source/blobs.

It is possible because people usually think in terms of branding. Not aware different models may exist in different regions. Example the note gen1 has Korean and Chinese and US versions, each has a different model number.

Thx but I already use an app for that (ES explorer, though I think that uses normal Wifi). I was just curious about the native wifi-direct abilities, since not everyone has the same app installed, it would be preferable in terms of compatibility/UX.

Besides testing Bluetooth I'm trying out the Wifi-Direct (P2P) functionality. Has anyone had success transferring (e.g. via "share") files using this? Get good speeds? My phone (Running 5.1) can't establish a wifi-direct connection with my older Sony (Running 4.2). Will try another Android...

Zips and extension trickery also don't work. So the question remains, is it me or Meizu? Update: I tried sending epub as jpeg and it worked. Still don't know why this problem occurs. Guessing a security "feature" some developers use.

Is it just me, or does bluetooth file transfer not allow sending of some file types? I can send photos to my other android, but can't send epub. I can receive all file types fine. I believe this is a common restriction with default Android BT apps, but would like to confirm before I get a BT...

A link for CWM would be nice :)

Ah stupid, I bricked my 32GB note, didn't think that the korean version would be that different... Any tips for fixing a bad PIT flash? Won't even do ODIN mode now, device recognized by Windows as QHSUSB_DLOAD with a missing driver.

What's the difference between native and non-native DLNA servers? The native version won't start ('error, the version was not started'). Maybe I need another server pack for that... [EDIT, fixed crash, had to manually choose CPU architecture]. The non-native DLNA seems to work but gets me...

Sounds cool. Maybe I can set long press home to go to homescreen. Which should be an obvious option that is lacking from the settings. 2 more things that need fixing are: 3rd party clocks (alarms) are unreliable. And the 3rd party keyboards like google keyboard don't produce haptic feedback...

I translated that installer script to english. One thing I noticed though: at line 70 busybox is called, and at line 120 there is a check if busybox is installed!?; I thought about moving that busybox-check section to somewhere before line 70, but didn't want to break anything. #!/sbin/sh...

Does xposed work on flyme 5.1? Is it a simple apk install?

liovag Technically 32GB is 29.8GB (My phone says the total size 29.12, probably doesn't count invisible partitions like baseband). Your phone also says 29.12. The problem is your data partition is only 11.9G, whereas mine is 26.2G according to Windows (or 26.8 according to android). In your...
