[LineageOs-20.0][TB-X606F/TB-X606FA][UNOFFICIAL] [Alexa Show Mode] for Lenovo Tab M10 FHD Plus [14.02.2023]

[massaquah]

Same happened to me, root with Magisk and then install this module, restart and Disney + should work

Did you use the normal version of this rom or the userdebug variant?
I used this one: 14022023-user-system.img
Can this be twrped and rooted with magisk?

Normal version, there is TWRP for it. https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...rp-3-6-x-for-lenovo-tab-m10-fhd-plus.4222887/

And yes it can be rooted with Magisk, unfortunately TWRP for this tablet is not yet ready for A13 yet, it is in the works, hopefully soon.

You can install Magisk and patch the boot.img and then flash it in fastboot mode using fastboot flash boot ".Magisk patched boot.img"

After setting up Magisk which btw I recommend you install Magisk Delta... You can use the module I attached to bypass widevine DRM and make Netflix, Disney plus and paramount plus work without issues, you can also use the universal safetynet fix module so you can pass safety net and after that you should be able to install Netflix from the Google play store with no issues.

Let me know if you need any help

Thank you very much for your assistance.
Unfortunately I am not clear about the exact steps.

- So you are saying, since TWRP is not yet ready for Android 13 (and this rom here is based on Android 13) I should not install TWRP, correct?
- But if not, how am I supposed to do this exactly? "You can install Magisk and patch the boot.img"

I suppose via Magisk Manager app?

 

[Alberhasky]

Yeah, basically TWRP will not be of any help since it cannot decrypt A13 ROMS yet, it will not be able to read or write any files, I had it installed when I had stock firmware and I kept it after flashing Lineage without knowing that it wouldn't work so no need for you to install it until it's ready for A13.

Download the magisk APK, either regular magisk or the delta one I'm recommending (https://t.me/magiskdelta/437) download the latest release of the APK and install it, open the app and hit install and then hit the option "select and patch a file" which will let you select your boot.img and patch it, after that you will have a magisk patched IMG in your download folder which you will have to copy to a computer so that you can open PowerShell or CMD and use the command "reboot fastboot" after the tablet restarts in fastboot mode you enter "fastboot flash boot PATCHED.img" that's it, reboot and you'll be rooted with magisk.

If you have the TB-X606F variant, I can just send you the patched.img so that you just copy it to your computer and flash it without having to do any of the first steps.

let me know

Thanks again!

That is where I am stuck since I dont have a boot.img:
"select and patch a file" which will let you select your boot.img and patch it"

All my efforts to extract the boot.img via adb from the installed system failed so far.

I have the TB-X606F, so I would really appreciate it if you'd just send me the already patched file.

 

[Alberhasky]

Sure!!
Attached is the magisk delta patched boot.img and the magisk delta APK, IMG is patched with the latest canary build of magisk delta and the APK is the latest build as well.

Install the APK first
Connect the tablet to your PC and transfer the patched IMG
Assuming you have adb tools...
Open PowerShell (preferably) or CMD and enter "reboot fastboot"
Once restarted in fastboot mode type "fastboot flash (and drag the IMG you downloaded into PowerShell or CMD and press enter to send the command.
Lastly type "fastboot reboot"
After that you can install the module I sent you earlier and I'll go ahead and attach the safetynet fix module so you pass safety net.

Here's the magisk delta APK, I had to compress it so it would allow me to attach it

Everything is working perfectly now.

I'm glad to hear that!!!
Don't forget to go to magisk settings and turn on "Zygisk" and then go to "Configure MagiskHide" and add google playstore and Google play services, after you do that, go and clear cache and data from Google playstore so that the playstore gets certified, you can check if it worked by opening the playstore and going to settings and then to "about" it should say "device is certified" if it doesn't say anything just wait a few minutes and open the playstore again and check, sometimes it takes a couple of minutes to detect it after you cleared the cache and data, you can also download https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.freeandroidtools.safetynettest to check if you're passing safetynet assuming you installed the safetynet fix module and turned on Zygisk

I hope it all works for you... Let me know if you pass safety net and hopefully you can download Netflix from the playstore after that

 

[massaquah]

hm...
Zygisc is enabled
Magiskhide is active for Play Store and Play Services
After clearing cache and data from Playstore it indeed says "Device is certified".

Sadly, Netflix can't be installed from Playstore.

 

[lithium07]

If you're rooted you can just install titanium backup and freeze Amazon Alexa - Show Mode for Lenovo. That's what I did and everything is working fine

Thanks! Unfortunatly i did not root the device yet, but i found another way: Using ADB i was able to disable the amazon.speech.inn app and that helped too

Thanks to @Yahoo Mike we now have a working TWRP for A13 GSI ROMS, decryption is working and even backup and restore.. you guys are welcome to try it in your devices, it will allow you to root the easy way and install future magisk updates since direct install does not work because of /dev/block/mmcblk0p28 being read only, so for now the only way to update it will be through TWRP which is a game changer already, otherwise the only other way was to patch the boot.img every time and flashing it using fastboot which was a pain in the ass and always required a computer. Attached is the TWRP test img, as I said you guys are welcome to test it so that Mike can go ahead a release it.

Installation:
1: Restart to bootloader from the restart menu or by using command adb reboot bootloader
2: fastboot flash recovery twrp_X606FA_12.1.fbe.img
3: fastboot --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
4: fastboot reboot recovery (to go to recovery) or fastboot reboot (to reboot system)
5: (optional) but good for testing... flash something, you can flash the magisk APK that I attached on this post earlier, just decompress the zip and when in recovery you can just select the apk and it should flash.

Feedback would be great to make sure it works for you guys, everything on my end and Mike's end seems to be working good.

Cheers!!!

Thx! I was able to root the device and install magisk successfully!

Good deal, you can now install the safetynet fix module I attached a couple of posts ago to pass safety net, just make sure once you install it, you go to magisk settings, turn on zygisk, turn on magiskhide and then click on configure magiskhide and add everything you want to be hidden from root, like Google play store, play services.

Thanx, device is recognized as a certified one

Cool, question are you able to download Netflix from the playstore? Because @massaquah wasn't able to but I'm able to with no problem, just curious

Yes without problems!

 

[Alberhasky]

Oh. I actually did not try....I'll let you know tomorrow

Were you able to find anything about that? Reason I ask is because direct installation of magisk fails due to system being read only, attached is a picture of what error is thrown by magisk installer, I mean now the whole process is easier because we got magisk to work for this ROM and we can always upgrade through there but it's still pretty inconvenient, you think we can do something to get the system to mount as RW?

 

[krayzieiyian23]

I have lineage os already installed on here. Would I need to still go back to stock in order to install this rom, or can I install over and wipe data?
