Hi. I just flashed your tweaks on my Italian version of ColoOS 6.1 A10. Maybe it's me but seems now I've got higher consumption. Does it need some time to set?
Or maybe there could be some problem with Universal GMS Doze Magisk's module?

Jerry1908's tweaks for x2 Pro

Tweaks include various adjustments to cpu governor/scheduler, I/O scheduler and some more. It does disable hypnus, zram, almk and more. In other words you should get increased SOT.

Supported: COS. Works also on realme UI, but hypnus isn't disabled completely.

Steps:
- download tweaks from my AFH,
- reboot to Custom Recovery,
- flash tweaks,
- enjoy.

so do we download all v's? or just version 7?

I honestly don't know as I rolled back to cos6.1 in under an hour of using rui.


EDIT:
So I flashed rui c21 with latest magisk canary(no magiskfix) and magisk modules are shown in magisk manager in os and in recovery. It might be some module not compatible with A10 and that's why, not sure. Check magisk log(or upload it here), maybe there will be something about it.

oh i dont see them in color os 6.1 a10, im using just canary magisk with twrp (not orange fox)

You won't see them in magisk, it's just flash and forget type. Magisk is needed to execute script with governor/scheduler adjustments and all the rest.

Updated tweaks to V8.
Till v7 tweaks are for ColorOS and V8 are for LineageOS(and custom roms).

You mean V7 only for ColorOS. And V8 for (color OS / LOS ) ... Am i right ?

A new update for global version has been released. I am sincerely thinking to install it. I suppose if it's specifically for custom recovery the FP Will work.

Is there any new about vbmeta for Android 10? Or still no root and custom recovery after the update to RealmeUI yet?

If it's realme UI c22 than fingerprint will not work. You should try LineageOS.

I'm looking to get this phone, do you have to be approved by Realme (BBK?) to get an unlocked bootloader? Can I buy a bootloader unlock code?

Sold phone, won't be supporting this anymore.

Admins please lock this thread.
Is there anybody who can take your place? Without this thread and your files (vbmeta, etc) modding will be dead.

P.S. Just for my curiosity, can I ask you why you sold your X2 Pro. Where you unhappy?

x2 pro has great hardware but...
realme has on their cos and rui suspicious services running in background, suspicious network activity and their policy. I'm done with them.

I understand. Surely you explored device deeper than me so you know it better.
I only hope your work will find a successor.

Have you already decided which one will be your future device?

    At start i want to say that I'm not responsible for your bricked devices, houses set on fire, bla bla bla and so on.

    Hello

    Since I see that many users are having problems with unlocking bootloader, flashing twrp and getting properly working Magisk. So here i come.

    Downloads:
    Everything you need you find here, on my OneDrive.


    Unlocking Bootloader

    BEWARE! After unlocking bootloader your DRM widevine will change to L3.

    Steps:
    - download and install Realme_x2_Pro_DeepTesting.apk,
    - open app and apply for deep test,
    - enable Developer Options by tapping 7 times Version in Settings > About Phone
    - go to developer options and enable OEM unlock and USB debugging,
    - open app once again after some time tap "Query verification status",
    - If you got approved application tap "Start the in-depth test" and phone will reboot to bootloader,
    - on PC, download fastboot tools from somewhere else(unless you already have it, its not on my OneDrive)
    - open folder where you have your fastboot installed, hold shift and click right mouse buton and choose "open command prompt here"(or Power Shell in newer version of windows),
    - connect your phone to PC, and write
    Code:
    fastboot flashing unlock
    - now on phone select "yes"
    - now your phone will reboot and erase all your data,
    - now you have unlocked bootloader.

    Flashing Custom Recovery

    I will guide you how to flash Custom Recovery.

    Steps:
    - connect phone to PC,
    - on your PC in command prompt type adb reboot bootloader,
    - download TWRP image from mauronofrio or OrangeFox image from thread put in your fastboot tools folder on PC,
    - download vbmeta.img from my OneDrive and put in your fastboot tools folder on PC,
    - type
    Code:
    fastboot flash recovery *******.img
    - type
    Code:
    fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
    - when flashing is done, on your phone select "Recovery Mode" with volume +/- buttons and accept with power key,
    - now it will boot into TWRP

    Getting properly working Magisk

    For now I recommend always using Magisk Canary Debug version cause it supports realme phones(stable needs magiskfix to get out of Core only mode).

    Steps:
    -download Magisk Canary zip to your phones internal storage,
    - boot to Custom Recovery,
    - flash magisk,
    - reboot to OS.


    Updating ColorOS on rooted phone via TWRP


    Use Magisk Canary cause it supports realme phones(stable needs magiskfix to get out of Core only mode).
    This is the only way to update ColorOS via TWRP without losing magisk or running into damaged boot/recovery image message on boot for now.


    Steps:
    - download latest Magisk Canary, vbmeta.img and latest update package(ozip) for your device(cn rom for cn device, global rom for eu/in device), if you download update via official OTA app the package is located in
    Code:
    /data/oppo/coloros/OTA/.otaPackage
    - reboot to Custom Recovery,
    - flash latest ozip through twrp recovery(don't reboot yet),
    - flash vbmeta.img through Custom Recovery
    - flash magisk(if flashing fail, than reboot recovery),
    - reboot to system.



    Locking Bootloader


    Think twice after evey step you did if it's done correctly before doing next step to prevent HARD BRICKS.​


    Steps:
    - download right latest ozip for your device from realme site(don't cross flash device, flash global ozip on eu/in devices and cn ozip for cn devices),
    - boot to Custom Recovery,
    - Flash ozip and after don't do anything else, just reboot to system,
    - let it boot to OS and replace Custom Recovery with stock recovery.
    - (optional) boot to recovery to check if it is stock, if its stock recovery than you can lock bootloader(don't ever try to lock with Custom Recovery),
    - reboot device to bootloader and through adb go with:
    Code:
    fastboot flashing lock
    - accept locking bootloader query on phone,
    - device now will reboot and perform factory reset.



    F.A.Q.


    Q: Can't flash xxxxxxxx.zip(or xxxxxxx.ozip/xxxxxxx.img) in Custom Recovery cause it throws an error, what to do?
    A: Reboot recovery and try again.

    @Jerry08 the A08 update is out, do we still need a custom build prop patch or do you know if the latest twrp 3.3.1.11 can now fully flash Magisk over it not just the core mode?
    You need custom patch and it doesn't flash through mauronofrio. 11. Still needs twrpcnen for properly working magisk.

    Good news is that A.08 fixes fingerprint with unlocked bootloader.

    I'm still on V6.1, RMX1931EX_11_A.06 (EU version) with TWRPCNEN and Canary Magisk latest versions (20.4-0dc9f5c3, Code 20303 and MM 7.5)

    Now I want to change to TWRP Mauronofrio 3.3.1.-12 with vbmeta from Jerry, and official Magisk 20.3 with Magiskfix from Jerry and MM 7.5.1

    Is it correct when I just go to adb and follow the procedure according to @Jerry08 latest guide, overwriting just the old CNEN version, as well as just overwriting the Canary Magisk or do I have to uninstall something of the current installation before changing to the new versions?
    Is it correct that I install all above without booting into OS inbetween?

    Is it correct that after above procedure is done everything should run without reinstalling Color OS A.06?

    Tks a lot.

    Try like patalao described:

    You have to relock your bootloader, install the latest update available A08 and then do the normal procedure to unlock the bootloader again and flash twrp and root.
    That's the only way to get fingerprint working.

    But you can relock bootloader after updating to A.08/A.09 than unlock, it will fix fingerprint also.



    As for the game space app, find gamespace apk somewhere and install.
