[Kimo2014]

Can you please upload for me to MEGA or somwhere else your b387 Firmware for L19c185 (update.zip and data.zip) - I tried do download today, but all Links are dead (even the one you used some days ago)

Of course bro,I can't put it in MEGA,but this is the link on google drive:

thank you very much

 

[Tecalote]

Bro, it's only one file update_data_full.... zip, only update.app. That's enough?

I have downloaded your zips now - thanks again...
But it is not right, what you said to me - update_data_full_EVA-L19_hw_meafnaf.zip contains the folder: data - and: META-INF - and UPDATE.APP
To install this with dload method - all three files must placed into the dload-folder on external SD.
Different to flashing with TWRP...

So I hope you dont miss anything.....

Update for MagicRainbow v2

Its time to update some components in MagicRainbow v2

Guide:

• 
  1) Open Magisk Manager
  2) Uninstall "Universal Safetynet Module" - if you have it installed! - klick on recycle bin symbol and after restart your phone!
  3) With Restart Menu reboot to Recovery (TWRP) and flash Huawei-Safetynet-Fix-by-Macleod.zip and restart Phone - DONT INSTALL THIS MODUL FROM MAGISK-MANAGER DIRECTLY
  Download: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=961840155545594407
  
  4) Open Magisk Manager again and install Osm0sis BusyBox 1.27.2 stable directly from Magisk-Manager
  See description: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73750869&postcount=578
  
  The updates bring more stability to the Rom and solve some issues.
  Universal Safetynet Fix had the issue to identify your Phone as a Xianomi Device instead of P9....
  Busybox 1.27.2 is more powerful and let the phone work more properly. I have the impression Battery Life is even better.
  
  BTW: I am working on a new Rom, which will based on b396 . New MagicRainbwow v3 will be a complete Rom with all Partitions, not only system and boot - for more compatibility with different p9 devices. But dont wait yet too much, I am very busy and I want to make this new Rom in slow steps without pressure from waiting users
  Greetings to all and have a nice sunday

K, I will update them tomo. Also, waiting for new MR. Btw, b3996 really or b390? Is it only newer security patch or also something new from Huawei?

Yes, you read right - it's b396 not b390. B396 isn't available in Europe yet but it already exists.
It has improvements for several things, also camera. :good:

Did you the steps I recommended?
1) Uninstall Universal Safetynet
2) Restart Phone
3) Reboot phone to TWRP
4) Flash Huawei Safetynet modul with TWRP ( not from Magisk Manager!)

Yes of course. I do it 2 times.

 

[Tecalote]

Yes of course. I do it 2 times.

Okay, EVA-L09 C185 is different :silly:

In this case stay for the first with Universal Safetynet Fix instead of the Huawei one.

Modul is generally working on Huawei Mate 9, P10, P9.
It works without problem on my EVA-L09...

But issue can be on your phone because Rom isn't 100% compatible in this configuration with b387..

So, all problems will be solved with next version of MagicRaibow

Thank you for pointing to the updates:, with few comments'

1) Before uninstalling previous BusyBox and installing this new version, Master Power in Viper4Android must be turned off (if V4A was enabled in the RIOM), and later Master Power button in V4A must be enabled again.

2) It's a not necessary to install them from MagiskManager folder, it works also directlu from eg ADM folder.

3) RootChecker complains me now that BusyBox is not installed ("cannot detect BusyBox version") - I tried couple of them, all the same?!
However, V4A works fine and shows Processing status Yes (when playing music), hence BusyBox must be properly running).
Screenshots attached.

Btw, looking to your screenshots:

I was also experimenting with Enable Doze for GMS module but abandoned it because it blocks all (or none) PNS notifications.

Instead, I have switched to ForcDoze app (Root required) because it provides Doze Notifications Blocklist, ie allows me to define for which apps to block notifications.

Eg, I block Skype notifications but still keep WhatsApp notifications enabled, assuring that Skype does not break Doze (causing to drain the battery - during the night I receive tons of Skype messages related to work), but that WA notifications (from friends and family) still come unaffected and instanenously to the locked screen (while asleep to Doze)

Just flash it from twrp.

 

[Tecalote]

For me - the Busybox installation does not really work - sorry.
Please check with Root Checker, if your BusyBox Installation is correctly. Mine was not. It was enabled in Magisk Manager and looked like good - but it wasnt. Root Checker told me, that installation does not exist.
I tried it several times with TWRP - but always failed. I tried it with Magisk Manager - installation was always corrupted. 1.27.2 does not work for me.
I have a User in the German Forum, he installed it with TWRP without problem....
and also @ogisha installed it with TWRP. He checked, that Magisk Manager Installation with + Symbol from modules dont work with Busybox. YashdSaraf told in his changelog, that he has removed support for installing directly from Magisk Manager.
So please check your BusyBox Installation. If its working - better you dont update it yet. Or maybe update is working for you.
Finally I flashed BusyBox 1.26.2 with TWRP without problems. Installation path from 1.26.2 ist /system/xbin.
After I flashed Magisk 14 again, to keep the safetynet. Everything okay now, but I cannot get 1.27.2 working on my phone....

Thanks for your feedback and recommendations.

I used ForceDoze app one week - and I found out, after rebooting device ForceDoze forgot some Apps which I have done in the withelist already... So I got no Push Notification from Telegram for example.....

For BusyBox 1.27.2 have a look into this Thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73744703&postcount=421
Some Users can install it with TWRP and it works - for me it dont work. A German User used the universal.zip without problems. I tried it with TWRP 3.1.1-1 and TWRP 3.1.1-0 but got always errors.
With Magisk Manager BusyBox seems to be installed, but Root Checker says: no (same as in your screenshot). I think, this is not correct.
I switched back at the moment to 1.26.2 - which does not install as Magisk Modul but classical to /system/xbin.
I flashed after Magisk 14 again to keep saftenet.

Maybe you converted from SuperSU to Magisk.
I had problems with SuperSU and lost root. Thanks to you and your instructions I reverted back to MM and did fresh rom installation from scratch but this time I rooted with Magisk.
Since then I have never had any problems of yours (knock on wood).

 

[zgfg]

Just flash it from twrp.

I tried though TWRP but flashing reported errors, no luck with 1.27.2

Switched back to Busybox-1.27.1-YDS-UNIVERSAL, installing through Magisk / Modules / +, it works back again - see screenshots (and btw, installed it from SD, without problems)

For BB please see my previous response above, I switched back to Busybox-1.27.1-YDS-UNIVERSAL and it works again fine for me.

For ForceDoze, I'm not using Whitelist, just Doze Notification Blocklist, to block PNS for unwanted apps

 

[Tecalote]

I have tested now Busybox 1.27.2 from recognized developer osm0sis.
You can download and install directly with Magisk Manager /Downloads

Busybox 1.27.2 for Android NDK

After flashing press Restart Button, Root Checker tells - everything okay

Please tell me your Phone Model
