Hi guys
if anyone is interested in testing out this boot image i created for my c636b172
removes all encrypt, perfect mounting options for all partitions (this took a while to figure since some caused bootloops)
also reduced voltages for wifi module (may be unstable, if anyone has problems let me know i can try and adjust, otherwise if im not getting problems ill just keep decreasing it)

how to install
1. make sure twp is installed
2. in data/dalvik-cache delete arm and arm64 folders.
3. boot into twrp > wipe cache and dalvik
4. flash the boot image in twrp (flash image select image flash to boot)
5. if you had su installed, flash the zip again
6. go to wipe cache and dalvik again (just in case)
7. reboot and enjoy, theoretically should be slightly faster, and less overhead.

if anyone has a request for their specific boot image let me know and ill add the same values.

Thank you for your work. Is this only for C636 devices or would this work on any device.
Could your reassemble it to add features like DT2W (doubletap to wake)?

i think DT2W is disabled, no flags of it in the boot image, you can try this guide.

the boot image is for the c636, im not sure if you can flash it on another base you can try just have a stock boot.img handy
or to be safe you can send me your boot.img and ill edit it the same.

Thank you for your friendly offer!
I am back on C432B156 with supersu modified boot. The original boot img linked here
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/development/stock-boot-img-library-t3573312
Mine is https://mega.nz/#!EABCVJwb!wopFOGqJzbpIX6edxM5Y9IVeZAIJ_CAJYUn3q4cc074

I recognized that I have no adb access in TWRP 3.02.2

I can not mount my pc connection. Would this be fixed?

Thank you for the info.
Which advantage is on daily usage. I guess I would have to install supersu again, for it modifies the boot.

My device: Mate 9 supersu b156 Mediapad X2 GEM 701->703 B212 KangVIP (AJ mod)

Hi Virtyx,
I very appreciate your work, good hope to use,
but i have some not understand the installation in STEP 2 (in data/dalvik-cache delete arm and arm64 folders) what to do?
Hope you can help explain more STEP 2 detail.
I have L29-C636b172 and unlocked Bootloader.

A lot of Thanks.

Using a file Explorer with root support, navigate to /data/dalvik-cache and remove those 2 folders. Alternatively use a terminal app and 'rm -rf /data/dalvik-cache/arm*'.

I guess you could use the file manager or terminal in twrp.
