The versions have a little difference at performance (boot) and specifics submenu options (some "blue" versions had otg) ... and some users like gold version... (the button gold colour!?)
PS. time to access the menu when boot in recovery mode is faster on "blue versions" that gold.
because this delay gold bring a "nothing happens" sensation to user

Changelog:
[Sat, May 13 2017]: Initial Release
----------------------------​
Screenshots:
Requirements for installing AXES Rom:
1- A Human Brain
2- A PC/Laptop running Windows OS
3- Samsung USB-C Cable (USB-C to USB-A) which obviously comes with your phone in it's retail box.
4- Patience & Time at hand
Make sure to backup your files, contacts and so on before attempting to tamper with your device unofficially as the data residing in your phone's storage will be wiped!
Instructions on installing AXES Rom:
1- Go to your devices Settings ---> About device ---> Software info and tap on it's "Build number" several times in a row till a message appears saying that you have unlocked Developers mode.
Go back one step and you'll find a new option defined as: "Developers mode".
Without further ado select Developers mode in Settings and turn on: "OEM unlock".
2- Make sure the above step is fulfilled before you move on to this step. This guide is case sensitive and your device is on the line in case you do not follow the necessary steps provided in the right sequence and way.
Turn Off your phone completely and press and hold it's Power Button along with it's Volume Down Button & Home Button to enter: "Download Mode".
After the Samsung phone name logo, you will see a blue screen with a warning sign.
Proceed by simply pressing the Volume Up button once as seen on the screen.
Now you are in the: "Download Mode" aka: "Odin Mode" for flashing firmware files using the Samsung flashing tool called Odin.
3- In this step we will be attempting to Flash a Custom Recovery entitled: "TWRP" which stands for: "Team Win Recovery Project".
To do so we will need to download the Odin Windows Application as described above in Step 2 for flashing the custom recovery file.
WARNING: Flashing a custom recovery to your device will trip the Knox warranty bit on your phone. Check with your mobile provider to see if they will still cover warranty on Knox bit triggered devices. If you understand this risk, continue on.
Odin v3.12.3 Download Link:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2711451
You'll find the link in the attachments section below the thread.
TWRP Recovery v3.0.2.0 (ONLY for SM-A520F/DS) Download Link:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=745425885120710156
Once you've download both files from the given links above, extract the folder: "Odin3 v3.12.3" from the Odin3 v3.12.3.zip file to your desktop and move the: "A5-SM-A520F-TWRP-3.0.2.0.tar" file to the Odin folder you just extracted.
Run the Odin3 Application within that folder.
Click on the: "Options" Tab after Log and uncheck: "Auto Reboot" and make sure that: "F. Reset Time" is checked.
Go back to the: "Log" Tab and click on the: "AP" button and select the: "A5-SM-A520F-TWRP-3.0.2.0.tar" file you just moved to the Odin folder in your desktop.
In order for Odin to detect that your phone's connected to your PC/Laptop make sure you have the Samsung Usb Driver for Mobile Phones installed onto your PC/Laptop.
If you already have it installed then simply skip obtaining it from the download link below.
Samsung Usb Driver for Mobile Phones Download Link:
https://yadi.sk/d/uubiaKw6j8bug
Afterwards connect your phone to your PC/Laptop using the Samsung USB-C Cable.
Once Odin displays that your device is connected, hit the: "Start" button below and wait for the file to be done flashing. You will notice above a green progress bar filling up towards the end and also your phone's screen will display a white progress bar to go along with it.
4- Odin will display a green: "Done" box above when it's done flashing TWRP Recovery.
Afterwards we will reboot our phone normally by simply pressing and holding the Volume Up Button and Power Button for a few seconds (around 10 sec.) and then we instantly press and hold the Volume Up Button along with the Power Button and Home Button before we see the Samsung Galaxy A5 Bootlogo in order to successfully boot to TWRP Recovery.
5- You will reach a TWRP Recovery screen asking you if you want to allow system modifications. Swipe right and enable modifications and select: "Don't show this again".
6- For the Internal Storage or Data to work in TWRP Recovery we will have to go to: "Wipe" then "Format Data" (not advanced wipe) and type: "yes".
Go to: "Reboot" and select: "Recovery".
7- Your phone will reboot to TWRP Recovery once again.
If you have the Rom zip file available in your External SD Card then skip Part 1 of this step and move on to Part 2.
Part 1: While running TWRP Recovery on your device, connect your phone to your PC/Laptop using the usb cable and copy the Rom zip file to your phone's Internal Storage.
Part 2: Finally go to: "Install", select storage and select: "Internal" or "External storage" wherever you copied and stored the AXES Rom zip file.
Locate the Rom in either storages, select it and swipe to the right to flash it.
Wait for the Rom to be flashed entirely and then select the reboot option.
Rebooting to the system will require about 5 minutes so be patient and don't forget to report back to us with your experience!

MiX Pack for the simple user (TWRP AdAway SuperSU)

Hi all,
Here you may find a zip containing some very basic resources which can be found elsewhere without too much effort however I figured I would make things that slightest bit easier for some who use any of the MIUI 9+ builds.
The following zip file includes the latest custom SuperSU for MIUI Oreo, the latest release of TWRP, the latest release of AdAway.apk and for the hell of it, the stock MIX boot animation if you wish to use it on any other ROM. 20/5/18
https://www.dropbox.com/s/29u1z721blc1mdy/MIX Package.zip?dl=0
You can find guides elsewhere which go much more in-depth but I'll make a quick one for those who have unlocked bootloaders and are wanting to use any of the builds located on the official MIUI site: http://en.miui.com/download-334.html
The following are the steps I take for my usual installation;
1. Download chosen Official Developer or Stable ROM from the site above in FASTBOOT version. (Click "flashing guide", then "fastboot update" on the left menu where you will find all Xiaomi models, select either "latest global stable" or "latest global developer")
2. Extract ROM folder from download (example: chiron_global_images_8.4.19_20180419.0000.00_8.0_global) to C drive root.
3. Make sure fastboot drivers are installed and device can be seen by PC then download: https://xiaomiflashtool.com/
4. Connect your phone, load up the tool and click "select" on the top left. Here you will locate the ROM folder on C drive.
5. Click "refresh", if your phone is discovered then click "CLEAN ALL" at the bottom to prevent re-locking your bootloader followed by "flash" on the top right hand side which will initiate a full wipe of your phone followed by the installation of your ROM.
When complete allow phone to boot completely and then power it off. Continue below for root instructions.
6. Extract contents of MIX Package to your desktop and open CMD: Hold shift and right click your desktop, click "open powershell window here". Once powershell is loaded, type "cmd" and hit enter. When ready for step 7, boot your phone to fastboot mode.
7. You can either install TWRP or single-boot to it which will allow you to use it one time before reverting to stock recovery upon next reboot. For install, type "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" and hit enter, then type "fastboot boot recovery.img" to boot to recovery. For single-boot TWRP type "fastboot boot recovery.img" which will boot into the img and allow any desired flashing without installing TWRP to your phone.
8. You are now in TWRP and should have storage access to your phone via your PC, copy SuperSU (and AdAway if desired) to your phone storage.
9. Hit "Install" in TWRP and select SuperSU zip file then flash. Once complete you may now boot your phone and progress through the first time setup.
10. Congratulations, you now have a completely fresh, clean rooted version of your desired MIUI. If you wish to enable full-system ad blocking, proceed to your file manager and install the AdAway.apk then follow instructions in-app.
As mentioned, this is not particularly a replacement for any other guide already published for the Mi Mix 2, it is the guide which I follow for all of my installations which gives me the cleanest possible MIUI. If you are using a stable release ROM and need to pass safety net then I suggest you use substitute SuperSU for Magisk however all the developer ROMs are unable to pass safety net anyway and I much prefer using SuperSU as it has never failed me and has the ability to hide the icon completely from launcher.

Flash stock recovery first then boot into recovery it will automatically detect the update and update process will start.

THANKS FOR THIS GREAT UPDATE!
However, I found out that ADB (Under Developer Settings) doesn't work.
Drivers checked. ADB when in Recovery working. But when already booted, device doesn't appear under terminal (or command prompt).
Always reverting back to "USB CHARGING" when:
1) USB PLUGGED IN; and
2) ADB activated
When ADB is turned off, we can change back to MTP, etc. BUT NOT WHEN ADB IS ON.
OTHER THAN THAT, GREAT JOB!

Hey guys could you help me with any Android pie gsi ROMs with VOLTE support for my Honor 9i RNE L22? I have been searching a lot but didn't come across any suitable one.

[RECOVERY][TB-X505F][UNOFFICIAL] TWRP 3.6.x for Lenovo Tab M10 HD

This version of TWRP works on the Lenovo TB-X505F (wifi).
For the TB-X505X, see this thread. For the TB-X605F/L, see this thread.
For the TB-X606F/L, see this thread. The X606F/L is the second gen M10 and it uses a Mediatek SOC.

#include <std_disclaimer.h>

Working:
AFAIK, everything is working including:
data decryption
MTP
Known issues:
time not adjusting for Daylight Saving
OTA (for a workaround see this post)
Before installing TWRP
Before you install TWRP, upgrade your tablet to the Android 9 (Pie) or Android 10 (Q) stock ROM.
This tablet shipped with Android 8 (Oreo), in which the bootloader did not allow unlocking. When you tried to unlock the bootloader, it gave this error message:
Code:
fastboot oem unlock-go
FAILED (remote: 'unknown command')
fastboot: error: Command failed
Installation
It is recommended that you also install Magisk. This will ensure TWRP remains your default recovery.
Step-by-step guide
download TWRP to your PC (see the Download section below)
download magisk.apk to your MicroSD or OTG device. Get the latest Magisk apk file here. Rename the filetype from apk to zip (for example Magisk-v22.0.zip)
if your bootloader is already unlocked, go to step 4. To unlock bootloader:
on tablet: go to Settings->System->About and press "Build number" 7 times to enable Developer Options.
on tablet: go to Settings->System->DeveloperOptions. Turn on: "OEM unlocking" and "USB debugging".
connect tablet to your computer. Tablet will ask for permission to "Allow USB debugging". Tick "always allow" and select "OK".
backup any files you want to keep to an external device (MicroSD/OTG/computer), because the next step will wipe all your photos, files, google account etc on the tablet.
Now unlock the bootloader:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot oem unlock-go
fastboot reboot
flash the twrp image:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
if you haven't loaded Magisk yet, go to step 6. If you have already loaded Magisk, you can just reboot and you're finished:
Code:
fastboot reboot
adb reboot recovery
load Magisk (step one): reboot to recovery. Do not reboot into the system, because it will over-write TWRP with stock recovery. If that happens, go back to step 4 and start again. When you issue the reboot command (below), you have to immediately press the button combination to reboot to recovery (TWRP). Here are the steps:
issue the reboot command:
Code:
fastboot reboot
immediately press and hold all three buttons (Pwr+VolUp+VolDown). The tablet might reboot twice. Release all the buttons when you see the TWRP screen, or hear your PC acknowledge that ADB is connected.
load Magisk (step two): flash Magisk. In TWRP:
select "Install"
use "select storage" to locate device you stored magisk.zip on.
press the OK button
select the Magisk zip file
swipe to confirm Flash
when Magisk is finished, hit the "Reboot System" button
finished!
If you prefer to use button combos, rather than fastboot/ADB commands:
Vol Down + Power = fastboot mode
Vol Up + Vol Down + Power = recovery mode

Not that I know of. The bootloader accepts the command fastboot reboot recovery, but boots to system anyway.
Hello there, I've been looking how to install this on my slow tablet for almost like an hour. Could there be some tutorial or extended explanation to the process and installation, I'm such a noob, sorry.
This worked for me. Thank you for your effort and the TWRP!
Worked for me too - many thanks!
Can't wait for a custom ROM!
TWRP Recovery Installation Steps
1. Download android platform tools
2. Unlock developer mode on the M10
3. Enable USB debugging on the M10
3. OEM unlock enable on the M10
4. XDA download TWRP copy to sd
5. Download Magisk app (from Github!!! johnwu), change extension to .zip
6. Adb to fastboot
7. fastboot flash recovery [filename.img]
8. Turn off device
9. Turn on device holding all 3 buttons, release when see Lenovo splash screen
10. In TWRP find Magisk zip
11. Install Magisk
Stock ROM Recovery
1. Download qualcomm drivers 64 bit install
2. Download Lenovo recovery and image tool windows app from Lenovo support website
3. Fastboot oem edl
4. Turn off M10
5. Start recovery windows app, wait till instructions
6. Hold volume up (up is the side of the button closest to the front camera) and insert cable
7. Release button after windows app detects device
8. Troubleshoot by checking windows device manager for the M10 appears as a Qualcomm device
I'm thinking about getting one of these tablets, but before I do so I'd like to know that the screen lock still works after installing TWRP.
This might sound like a crazy question, but my Samsung Tab A won't set a screen lock - pattern, PIN or password - once TWRP has been installed, and I'd rather not run into the same issue again.

Many thanks.
Thank you! TWRP is working fine!
Stupid me flashed before I installed the Android 10 OTA, so I had to temporarily go back to stock recovery. Unfortunately beamingbadger's method didn't work for me.
This is how it worked for me:
Download the OTA via Lenovo's "Rescue And Smart Assistant"
The stock recovery image will be in the Download folder (default path: C:\ProgramData\LMSA\Download\RomFiles) called "recovery.img"
Flash the recovery.img the same way as you would with the twrp img (adb reboot bootloader -> fastboot flash recovery recovery.img)
fastboot reboot
Install OTA
Flash TWRP recovery + Magisk again (follow the steps from the first post, skip bootloader unlock)
The method I use to install OTAs is:
open Magisk App
select "Uninstall Magisk", then the "Restore Images" option
reboot to Android (you will have no root access and stock recovery is restored)
apply OTA
re-flash twrp and install Magisk
NOTE 1: if you've unencrypted your data partition, it will be re-encrypted by this process.
NOTE 2: the new Magisk App (v22) can be installed in TWRP by renaming the *.apk to *.zip. See the new install instructions.
What's involved with running gsi ROMs on this device? It's got the same SoC as my Samsung Tab, which runs them well, so I'm assuming that this tab will also, but I'd like to know if there are any traps that I need to be aware of.
I can partly answer my own question. It all went more smoothly than I expected: installing TWRP, Magisk and then LineageOS R Mod //LiR, followed by Disable_Dm-Verity_enfec.zip.
If I want to try other GSI ROMs, do I need to flash stock before trying another one? I've had some trouble doing that (won't boot) and it's possibly to do with encryption.

On my X605F I do this in twrp for a new GSI install:
format (not wipe) data partition. This is the option where you have to confirm by swiping.
factory reset. This clears the caches.
restore the stock boot and vendor partitions (from a backup I made). This is because Magisk can touch these partitions.
install the GSI system image
install anything else I need like disable_Dm-Verity, Magisk, gapps etc
I don't know what LOS R Mod //LiR does to your system. If it touches any other partitions, you should restore those to stock too.
Thanks for that. It gives me something to go on with. I've downloaded the stock ROM from lolinet, so I can grab the boot and vendor images from that.
I was able to try a couple of other GSI ROMs and I've settled on AndyYan's LineageOS 17.1 for now. The only serious installation issue I had - which I can laugh about in hindsight - was thinking I'd got myself into a very bad bootloop, when all I needed to do was let go of the power button after the Lenovo logo appeared.
On this tablet, there is no navigation capability at all (no navbar, no gestures, no setting to configure them) on installation, and I have to set it using adb. I suspect it goes back to PHH basic ROMs, but I don't feel like doing yet another install and testing right at this moment. Is this happening on the other tablets that you're testing, or is it unique to this one?
I just posted the v3.5.1 update to twrp.
It's also changed to landscape mode, as many of you requested.
Quick question, how do i apply new system updates with twrp installed? Should i not bother? Also, i forgot how to block check for updates!
will this allow flashing of stock roms download from lenovo recovery? ive been stuck on an ancient android 9 version because the ota updater fails.
