Working :

• Basic twrp features
• partially dual boot (different rom can be boot on both slots but still share same userdata, recommend to use fastboot method)
• Decryption only support for fbev2 rom (example is some older rom, and kyasu lineageos)
• otg / sdcard

Issues / Notes :

• vibration is really wonky (which only happened on twrp, not orange fox) not quite fix, but it's stable enough to confirm
• you might need to reflash rom "once" after you boot into recovery (flash twrp > boot to twrp > reboot to system (you'll see system corrupt) then reflash same rom that you currently using (via fastboot or twrp if rom support), after that it'll be fine. only on custom rom, stock is fine)
• doesn't works with kyasu lineage due to using device model as ota assert (different than twrp ota assert, which is pdx206) fixed in latest build
• doesn't support stock, due to different decryption key
• ext4 only, no erofs and other models for now (1 ii and pro might release later, busy working new device tree for kumano)
• format data, before flashing any rom (unless you doing a dirty flash)
• For Stock users, use THIS TWRP instread this one

Big thanks :

• most users on telegram for testing
• christopher, for send me the device
• clfbbn for kernel source
• skkk (sekaiacg) for base device tree

Nice work dude finally some development

 

[Nightmare_19]

I tested and it works on kyasu lineageos...

OTA probably won't work

 

[Nightmare_19]

The Xperia5ii PDX206 doesn't have an official LineageOS, so OTAs don't do much.

I tested and it works on kyasu lineageos...

there's some problem on some roms for missing ota assert (tested on ricedroid), but if it works. no problem

 

[Nightmare_19]

Cannot install .zip files, neither slot A nor B work.

lineageos zip?


if lineageos zip, no it don't works. (different ota name)

Can install in au(Japan) version?

Can install in au(Japan) version?

none of my tester (including me) have au devices, but if custom rom works then twrp should be fine

 

[Yoannjap]

Sorry, but I didn't understand with which ROM(s) and version does this TWRP works.

 

[Yoannjap]

And any OrangeFox would possibly be developed?

Well, thqnks for your replies

Sorry, but I didn't understand with which ROM(s) and version does this TWRP works.

tl;dr
- twrp works on android 12 (but decryption doesn't works on stock)
- twrp can't install lineageos (due to different device target, mine use pdx206 and lineage uase xq-as72)

(we're already discussed about device ota on dev group, so i'll use pdx206 for now, more custom rom in future will use pdx206 as target device)

 

[Yoannjap]

Ok then, I am a real noob, I don't understand what does mean "PDX206".

I don't understand what you mean saying ‘due to different device target, mine use pdx206 and lineage uase xq-as72’.

To me, the XQ-AS72 is the code of the South Asian variant of Xperia 5 ii, whereas XQ-AS62/52/42 other variants.

Whereas PDX206 is just a codename meaning Xperia 5 ii (whatever variant of XQ-ASXX it is) used by I dunno who.

Am I wrong?

it's ota assert (in this case, target_device) that custom rom is set when flashing (to avoid flashing into wrong device)

lineage has been set for xq-as72 as default (don't confuse with device variants, ota assert or target_device doesn't affect with device variant that you use)

and twrp have been set to pdx206 (which is device codename for 5ii) so that's main reasons why it can't flash lineageos (but you can still access data normally)

 

[Yoannjap]

Ok
Thank you loipuru, I got it now.

 

[loipuru]

update,

- add xq-xx72 for lineageos flashing

the rest like /oem (for japanese variant) ltalabel and ta will come out later
