[ROM][Beta] LineageOS 16.0 for Huawei G620S, Honor 4/4x

[pndwal]

Update: Mokee ROM without Android Go implementation has much longer standby as Lineage. After 19 hours it still shows 88 %. Maybe the RAM manipulation takes away more energy because the kernel is more active.

Thanks for pointer!

Think you're probably right - batt life / increased activity is likely the tradeoff for responsiveness with low-ram set.

Mokee may be worth the switch if standby is a concern.

How did Mokee standby compare with LOS w/ low-ram flagged? PW

So sad. Today I transferred Mp3 files on my phone and it suddenly bricked... black out. Not able to boot any more... no LED lights even when charged. Finished. Maybe someone here who can give advice ? The phone is absolutely dead.

Commiserations. Pay to check if battery has correct voltage... PW

I'm having trouble flashing this rom (as well as 15.0) in my G620S-L03. TWRP gives me this message:
E:unknown command [log]
Updater process ended with ERROR: 7
Error installing zip file '/external_sd/LineageOS 16.0 Huawei G20S.zip' (I changed the zip file name to easily identify it).

I've already updated TWRP to the latest version.

Yes it has. The phone is recognized by windows when connected but not possible to show files.

Good. Is it showing as drive? Or in device manager showing as "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008”, “QHUSB_BULK”, or other? PW.

Tried both this and mokee, and this one is by far better than mokee (performance wise), but there's features that are on mokee that i miss here, like lockscreen shortcuts configuration, bottom screen gestures and some of the sounds. Also the launcher seems to go into recent apps when trying to open the drawer.

Yes as 9008

What Is the best method to get it back to life ?

What Is the best method to get it back to life ?

So you get 'Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008'? In device manager?

Anyway, this ('diagnostic') mode indicates you have corrupt emmc partitions and need to rebuild them.

How did problem first occurr? - Did you alter (or try any software that alters or flashes) critical partitions (other than data, system, boot, recovery)?

Sadly, there's a good chance you have physical emmc (memory) damage if you weren't modding / flashing critical partitions, and this must be considered. Snapdragon 410 is known for overheating issues which can and has caused such damage.

Assuming corrupt emmc, check here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help/to-root-huawei-y500-t2923318/page611
Read all posts on pages 611 & 612 regarding rebuilding your emmc using QFIL (Qualcomm Flash Image Loader). You may want to ask for help from @x.akshit as he has experience fixing emmc on phone with the same Snapdragon 410 chipset as ours using QFIL.

See also post #6043 re. using QDLoader 9008 software. Firehose file in my link posted there (rebuild file specific to Snapdragon 410, ie prog_emmc_firehose_8916.mbn) will probably be good for either software.

Hope this helps. Please report, and all the best with it, PW.

Thanks. I will read and make after my holiday. The phone went down when transmitting mp3 files from PC to the phone's SD card. It stopped and was dead immediately. That's all I did. Strange isn't it?

Well, yes, unless you sustained physical damage to emmc (did you notice phone heating excessively at all?). Of course, this comes with a bad prognosis... PW

Today startet it get back to life. No success. I took all files necessary. What can it be ?

Which ROM are you flashing? And exact phone model? PW

 

[kharuba]

The original ROM of G620S-L01 which contains no dload data it's the ROM with firmware inside extracted

I think the patient is probably brain dead despite breathing. Continued life support may be costly and emotionally taxing.

On the bright side, the patient may still make a difference to another phone's life - loved ones could consider the gift of a transplant...

Or you could sell it to Mr. Praline...

Mr. Praline:
Um...now look...now look, mate, I've definitely 'ad enough of this. That parrot is definitely deceased, and when I purchased it not 'alf an hour ago, you assured me that its total lack of movement was due to it bein' tired and shagged out following a prolonged squawk.

Owner:
Well, he's...he's, ah...probably pining for the fjords.!

Mr. Praline:
'E's not pinin'! 'E's passed on! This parrot is no more! He has ceased to be! 'E's expired and gone to meet 'is maker! 'E's a stiff! Bereft of life, 'e rests in peace! If you hadn't nailed 'im to the perch 'e'd be pushing up the daisies! 'Is metabolic processes are now 'istory! 'E's off the twig! 'E's kicked the bucket, 'e's shuffled off 'is mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin' choir invisible!! THIS IS AN EX-PARROT!!

(pause)

Owner: Well, I'd better replace it, then... Sorry squire...
