Patched boot image myself using imgpatchtools. Used A19 from you and applied the boot.img.p patch from OTA zip.

For anyone who needs. Here is the C.01 image for DN2103, stock and patched with magisk, you can read and write these with MTKclient as fastboot is removed in C.01. You may need to rename it to .bin

Hi,any chance of full install instructions as I've lost the ability to access fastboot/ bootloader I'm not sure how to flash A12 stock EU version.A y detailed help would be much appreciated.Thanks

 

[davythom]

Sorry, downgrade from OS A12 to Stock OS A11

A full OTA from Android 11 to Android 12, for DN2103 EU version, is possible to post? Thank you

 

[Maddinx]

Anyone got a A21 boot.img please?

Why do you need fastboot? If root is all you want then flash those with MTKclient and BROM mode. Otherwise look in the forums there is instructions to downgrade from 11-12.

I'm actually wondering if we flash the right partitions from 11 while running 12 if it will brick or if it will reenable fastboot. Maybe someone brave can try

I have two EU phones right now. One have received OxygenOS 12.1 (C.01) and another one is sitting on A.20. Can I grab an update from the first phone somehow?

/data/OTA-package/update.zip

Assuming you've downloaded the update via the OTA settings tab, the update.zip will be at this location and can be transferred to your PC or flashed using TWRP as-is from the above location. "

stock boot.img for A21 update with June Patch 2022.

Patched myself using this tool: https://github.com/erfanoabdi/imgpatchtools/releases/download/0.3/IMG_Patch_Tools_0.3.zip

$ ./ApplyPatch stock_A20_boot.img new_A21_boot.img 73f2f272c090ffa378b9662d00985bf81cff02ea 33554432 31016eca2954bf998f0fe961642ab6d025264f29 boot.img.p

Syntax is:
- ./ApplyPatch
- existing boot.img name (e. g. A20 from here)
- new boot.img name
- SHA hash of new boot.img file (to be created)
- filesize
- SHA hash of previous boot.img file
- patch file

The hashes and the filesize are located in the updater-script file under META-INF\com\google\android\

(Love letter to my future self in case I forget how to patch it myself )

Where to find update script A20 to A21?
You patched only the boot.img. Is this enough? Idk, since never received this A21 update.

Please elaborate how to update from A20 to A21 on rooted with magisk_patched_A20.img to A21 update with magisk_patched_A21.img

Thank you!

update-script file is located under META-INF\com\google\android\ in the incremental OTA zip file. (To get the link of the OTA update file, I used https://github.com/Akilesh-T/OTALink )

Patching just the boot.img works perfectly for me. root access and no limitations.

So far I've used the described patching method like this:

1. Patch boot.img as described above (create A21 from A20 img file)
2. Patch created boot.img with Magisk
3. Uninstall Magisk (Restore boot Image)
4. Install incr. OTA
5. After OTA installation, boot to fastboot
6. Flash magisk patched boot.img
7. fastboot reboot
Done.

Thank you very much.

I try to figure how to do the step 4. Need offline install, because: 1) if try with TWRP end with bootloop, 2) the system updater wants to push me C.01 straight from A20. 3) for now want to keep the latest 11.3

Maybe using imgpatchtools can do update from my PC. Any idea?
