    Post Root+Custom ROM Onda V10 Pro

    Just did it. it works, though it was horrible. magisk 13 is too old and I could not find how to patch the boot.img option. so I managed to do with the common files from 18.1 and the patching complete. then I re-flashed everything and unfortunately it reset the tablet, but worked and I'm rooted...

    Post [STOCK] Boot images with verity removed

    Hummmmmmm. This is meant for any ROM other than stock right? Or it will boot straight into recovery as it does for every magisk version about 17, which I expected before flashing anyway........I had to reflash the original old no Verity from tdm to boot again into system, no damage cause, but I...

    Post Can't upgrade to Magisk 17.1

    It was. Now although security net passes, Google pay stopped working for ever.....and unless there is a way to make magisk 18.1, working on stock, which to me in unheard of, we stock users have to unroot or flash akop and go through the hustle of making sound work with Dolby. Cheers

    Post [UNLOCK] Tuliptool: unlock, TWRP, and custom boot

    Not sure why you are so cross? I thought the norm was stock, and I those with custom ROM should declare it, not the other way round. I have flashed lineage, for example, previously and it also works fine. I did go back to stock for the simple fact that, crappy or not, it works great, or at...

    Again. Didn't work. I'm sorry to say but I cannot believe you actually managed to flash any magisk above 17. Can anybody confirm it is possible? Thanks

    Post [UNLOCK] Tuliptool: unlock, TWRP, and custom boot

    Nope. Same thing. Can't think what is wrong. Maybe it is because I'm using that project T-1.4 kernel......but I doubt cos it is basically done from the stock boot. But I will try to revert to stock boot, then flash 18.1 and see. Thanks

    Post [UNLOCK] Tuliptool: unlock, TWRP, and custom boot

    No luck. 18.1 bootloops straight into recovery. I tried it twice and I think the boot.img ends up faulty. To fix it I could flash 16.7 and it boots, then I have to uninstall/unroot to use gpay again. Do you have the exact magisk.zip for me to flash and see what happens? Thanks

    Hi all. I live in the UK and yesterday something strange happened. Before I got in the train to work, I touched my phone to pay, then you have to touch on the way out again so the system calculates the total fare.....I was using Google pay as I used to do now for over a year. The problem is...

    Hi. It is being a long time since I last did this. Your screen shot shows the process to install the driver only, in your pc, so no risk of damage here. Once the bulk drive is installed, then you will find this same name "bulk" in device manager. If this is happening, then it means you can...

    During my research to recover my IMEI I read that once you "touch" the radio band via the secret code menu, you can't restore it without a bit of an deep operation. I hope I'm wrong, but that is what I heard. Go to you twrp and back up your data. Factory reset. Does it solve the network issue...

    Not sure why you cannot root your phone. tdm recovery and the EDL method works 100%. if you are on Nugget ROM, simply unlock the bootloader and flash twrp using tulip tool, reboot to twrp and flash the latest magisk 16.4. done, your are rooted if you are on marshmallow ROM you can also do the...

    Post [UNLOCK] Tuliptool: unlock, TWRP, and custom boot

    The first time the stock ROM boots it offers you to encrypt the phone. I have mistakenly accepted it and the internal memory was encrypted. then TWRP asks for the pattern every time, and it worked fine with me. However, because I found extremely annoying to have to enter the password every...

    Post [UNLOCK] Tuliptool: unlock, TWRP, and custom boot

    I think what you need would be the windows phone driver to begin with. If the pc knows something is connected and it calls it ”android”, then with the correct driver you will get adb to work. Another advice, I would not start flashing stock recoveries randomly. You must try to flash the tulip...

    well, as long as you didn't loose the IMEI like me I think it is fixable. go to edl again. flash the tulip recovery again. it is the only recovery that will work. I think you should not have let your system reboot after flashing it. once you flash it, it will try to restart alone, but keep you...
