Oh.
I did Only read your text.
Oreo + xperifix needs the permissive.zip buried in the twrp thread
I have unlocked my bootloader on CE .84 firmware, and couldn't get camera preview working in any version, how do I do that permissive. Zip thing also I couldn't find about it on the thread and I seriously need help, I dont care about security updates I just want the phone properly working with its camera.

If you use the PIE firmware .126 together with magisk and the existenze ROM, you get a working camera.
If you need the noise reduction, too, then you need, together with OREO, Magisk and the Xperifix, this permissive.zip.
https://github.com/Jman420/magisk_selinux_manager
Just download the repo as zip file, rename.it correct and install it in the magisk manager app as module.
existenze rom doesnt work either black preview also broken internal storage so it cant save photos

You need the vbmeta parameters mentioned in the first page of the TWRP topic
Or the camera will stay black.
It need to be repeated email you use flashtool, Emma or newflasher.
Did it broke after wiping in TWRP?
you need advanced wipe and wipe data, internal storage, dalvik.
Not only the normal wipe.
And you need to boot the .126 one time without Existenze, to correctly install the baseband drivers.
PS: Existence is only compatible with .126

There is no broken internal storage, this is TWRP encryption.
Wipe internal sd in recovery will solve your issue.

So I am currently on CN 2.27 ROM from NA Global, I am wondering how and if I can update to version 2.30 because Boot Unlocked TWRP Magisk GAPPS Debloated. Does TWRP currently work on the update? I assume upon updating I will lose everything back to stock, but I want to be able to get phone back to current state...because well CN Rom is much better but this device is so finicky if you know what I'm saying.

First you have to download 2.27 zip file
Extract it
Flash stock boot and recovery image
And then update to 2.30
After that flash your TWRP and magisk
Just backup ur data with TWRP in case u face any problem
So what exactly do we lose and gain with the CN rom over the EU rom??
Assume CN rom can be set to full English so no Chinese language remains?
Yeah I relocked boot uninstalled Majisk and modules, updated 2.30....then reflashed and installed. Its super smooth and all the game launcher features are great. Totally enjoying this far more than global. Oh and holy crap all the camera features too.

So you mean TWRP-3.3.1-0528-NUBIA_REDMAGIC3-CN-wzsx150.img and Magisk-v19.3 still working on v2.30 itsn't?
Where can you download the CN rom from?
Do you have a copy on the china rom? It's not on the Nubia site anymore.

Yes everything works, it's best to update cleanly then unlock bootloader, twrp flash, and root. Also if you flash gapps Pico in twrp CTS Profile SafetyNet will not pass....don't fret install Magisk Module Safety Patch by hackintosh5 in Magisk phone will reboot and system will Patch optimize on reboot and it will pass. Allowing full access to playstore and downloads.

Listen I have NA Global device, the easiest fail proof way to install CN Rom is in stock recovery, wipe data & cache use otg and FAT32 format pen drive to install...you will have no problems. If you decide to go back to Global do the same thing but with Global Rom on pen drive.

If you have a copy, can you upload it somewhere? The download is going incredibly slow and often fails when I try to download it from there.

Hello guys,
I don't see a dedicated section for lenovo Z5s but I managed to download the TWRP 3.3.1 from baidu (only chinese and english but chinese default).
I then looked for rom authors, it seems they all are using chinese custom roms, anyway they are mirrored and MIUI has been tested by me.
I decided to mirror all downloads I found (they were quite hard to get):
TWRP :
TWRP-3.3.1-LENOVO_Z5S-CN-wzsx150-fastboot.7z (with fastboot instructions and files)
TWRP-3.3.1-0529-LENOVO_Z5S-CN-wzsx150.zip (can be flashed with TWRP)
recovery-TWRP-3.3.1-0529-LENOVO_Z5S-CN-wzsx150.img (only .img file)
Chinese Roms :
Z5s_miui_19.5.20(9.5.16)_Pie_Public_by Art_Chen(TWRP_FASBOOT_2in1).zip
Z5S_H2OS_190722
Z5s_Flyme7.3.1.0A_YouLinw_V1.5_19.07.25
GSI Roms : (Seems to be AB, because A-Only are not working)
According to 4PDA, only Pixel Experience have been tested for now, they provide screenshot and video.
Pixel Experience GSI Tested working!
Ressurection Remix Tested working!
Arrow OS Tested Working!
All other public GSI images (tested many, none of them working, no idea why)
Official ROM backup (QPST format):
https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/lenovo/l78071/
I added permissiver v4 I got from Telegram on Android Q GSI channel
Instructions for GSI Images (thanks to 4PDA):
Using TWRP recovery:
0. Download the firmware files to your smartphone.
1. Enter the recovery menu. To do this, turn off the smartphone and simultaneously hold down the power button and volume +.
2. In the recovery menu, select the item Cleaning -> Selective cleaning. Check the boxes on Dalvik / ART Cache , System , Data and Cache . Swipe the slider to the right. Return to the main recovery menu.
3. In the main recovery menu, select Installation -> Install Img. Select firmware file XX.img. For system section firmware, select System Image, and for boot - Boot. Swipe the slider to the right. Go to the main recovery menu. Select Reboot -> System.
This procedure is new for all smartphones, so don't be afraid to ask questions if something went wrong.

Using adb:
0. Install the USB, ADB and Qualcomm drivers on the PC. Reboot the computer and connect the smartphone to the PC. Download files for firmware on PC.
1. In the folder where the files (.img) were saved, press SHIFT and the right mouse button from scratch. In the context menu, select PowerShell or CMD (activate command console).
2. Enter the commands one by one
fastboot flash system XX.img
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot -w
fastboot reboot
PS In some cases, it will be necessary to flash vendor and / or boot:
fastboot flash vendor XX.img
fastboot flash boot XX.img

First, thanks for the Thread. Very informative.
let me report that H2OS showes black screen after boot logo,
Flyme seems working but with some minor problems (bad english translation, no google apps on built-in chinese app store, upper notification bar not aligned, etc).

Hi, thanks. H2OS is the only one i have not tested, i will remove the link. If you live outside Cina I would recommend GSI rom since chinese roms might have issues with notifications.
I now recommend AEX (arm64 AB)

Don't you lost WIFI after flashing just GSI img file? I need to flash MIUI before flashing any GSI to keep WIFI working.
and this maybe is a lil bit off topic but have you ever had problems with fastboot?
my fastboot is not working properly since I bought this smartphone, 'fastboot devices' works but
can't flash anything, saying random error like 'maxium download size not reported', 'too many links', and even 'error: no error'...
tried changing usb port, cable, driver, everything I can think of.
I can still flash boot.img, recovery.img, vbmeta.img via QFIL but I want to use fastboot which is less hassle..
Report:
MSM Xtended is working too.
problems I hav till now.
1. WIFI not working if you flash directly from ZUI, or wipe cache/dalvic.
2. loud speaker sound problems at various ROMs, with or without equalizer app.
3. notch size is not matching with status bar at every ROMs
4. double tap to wake is not working for every ROMs.
I actually did flash miui first.
I contacted art_chen to get international MIUI, he told me he dont have phone anymore but we can download his miui zip and replace system.img with the one official from MI9 (taking the system.img full global fastboot firmware and it should work).
The vendor image and boot.img included in the miui rom have been customised by art_chen so he probably fixed wifi !
Since i also dont have the phone i cannot test so well.

1. did you had loud speaker problem after flashing treble GSI files? Mine distorts heavily with every .img file i tried.
2. I'm testing swapping .img file with other xiaomi devices but none of them is working. Sounds like you don't own the device anymore so this will be lonely fight.
---------- Post added at 03:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:36 AM ----------
I need FM radio which is not included in Art_chen's ROM so I tried swapping system.img with Redmi note 7 (closest spec), and failed.
TWRP log is saying "Failed to mount '/system_root'" so i guess the reason is partition chart problem or pre-installed magisk, I'm not sure I can fix this but I'll keep trying.
since FM radio is not even on the hardware list so i decided to give up FM radio, but updating android security patch with
Mi 9 (since OP mentioned), Mi 9 SE (quite close spec) and Mi CC9 (not international but even closer than redmi note 7) firmware files,
I don't think any of them would work, but I'll keep trying(2).
You could also try with Flyme blobs (boot, vendor etc) they are from different dev
If you messed up partition i recomment flash wjole miui or flyme with adb
Looking for Global Rom
I purchased the Chinese version of this model.
I tried various GSIROMs, but there were a lot of things that didn't work.
I want to use ZUIOS obediently. Does anyone have a Global Rom?
Also, you should be careful about overwriting GSIROM.
The lighting adjustment has gone wrong.
(No problem with genuine ROM)

there is no Official Global Firmware since this phone is only for china mainland. You can enable google service/calendar/GPS by downloading play store .apk from lenovo app store.
there is faulty firmware chimera with chinese rom + google service preinstalled, but trust me, it is unusable. It has every unfamiliar chinese-specific settings + bunch of 'google service force closed' alarms, bad battery drain by google service, crashing app downloading, etc.
Yes, I'm still using this mediocre device, found some useful articles about GSI, will throw links here.
https://www.dospy.wang/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=1626&extra=page=1
https://www.htcmania.com/showthread.php?t=1504540
it's not in English but google translate will help you guys.
here's the essence.
Flash MIUI first, its mandatory. Without it you will lost WiFi.
But, you will lost DT2W and FM radio at kernel level if you flash MIUI.
Now you can flash any GSI, but I recommend Pixel Experience from the link I uploaded,
because fixes of common GSI issues like statusbar height (use magisk+rirucore+riruedxposed+gravitybox), sound distortion (use magisk+audio compability), headphone not detecting (random) are integrated to the GSI.
Global ROM was uploaded to 4PDA.
K10 note is almost identical with Z5s and now it's Global released, you can get the QFIL files, I guess just swap system.img and userdata.img might work.
the difference between Z5s chinese ROM and K10 note global ROM must be something like that of Z6 pro chinese and global version...
edit: yes it is working, just swap system_xx.img and userdata_xx.img files will do the work, only camera.apk won't work properly (no optical zoom just digital, ramdom crash sometimes ) but we can stick with Gcam port.
I flash pixel experience then i find out auto brightness isn't work well.i adjust it to the lowest , but it still so bright.how can i fix it?
H2OS 9 : https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/45L1TZFa0g1MP3-jSYhMDg
Flyme 8 : https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/P8tL8eq9UhV8Hbq8-7nYBQ
MIUI 11 : https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/q-8qnFI1VP8upyz6quZZmw
it's all from YouLinw, the dev of Flyme 7 port in OP.
Flyme 8 is still in daily alpha, it boots but stuck in Terms&Conditions screen.
MIUI 11 and H2OS works great, (but don't use pre-installed Magisk, install official v19.3 from via TWRP. idk why but pre-installed one or lastest v20.1 won't work.)
Android Security Patch in MIUI11 is Sep 1st while H2OS is Aug 1st (same with PE I linked before)
so it's your choice to use MIUIsh MIUI with newer ASP, or H2/PE which is more stock android, but with older ASP.
Quack phh Android 10 is not working sadly,
neither vendor by Art_Chen (MIUI10) nor YouLinw booted,
with original vendor it boots but Wi-Fi won't work, like always.

Hello, i think about buying this phone or xiaomi note 7 pro . Want to flash lineage or aosp base rom, someone has a point of view about best hardware and best dev support ? For me note 7 pro have better dev support but one week for unlock bootloader and lcd cheaper for repair . Can't find photo versus, z5s have three module but rn7p have 48mp , someone have an advice ?

I think Redmi Note 7 pro is the buy.
I chose Z5s because of its cheaper price, lighter weight, and more premium material (alu+glass).
And I also had nice Dev experience with ZUK Z2 so I expected the same with this phone (which was wrong guess )
Cam, I assume stock camera is better in Z5s, but You won't use stock ZUI/MIUI ROM anyway so that won't bother you.
GCam works great on both model, ported stock camera apk won't work as good as it's on stock ROM, both in Z5s/Note 7.
Sound, both mediocre.
Screen, both mediocre (HDR on Z5s is fake color boost only for chinese content apps),
and Z5s has unusual copper plate type connection not like normal ribon cable.
Dev, Z5s is for China mainland only so you won't get proper global/AOSP ROM developments,
but you can get bunch of MIUI/Flyme/H2OS ROMs...
Official Update is also better in MIUI over ZUI.
Hi there. Was there any AOSP or LineageOS working on our Z5S?
Hi @vickdu31 do you have a copy of recovery-TWRP-3.3.1-1015-LENOVO_Z5S-CN-wzsx150.img ? I tried as a guest in 4pda but I get a 404 error. Thanks for your help!

I'm already working with both roms and my custom rom basically contains chinese vendor + global system. Firmware does nothing there.
To run modified system, you would need global based vendor but you obviously can't just flash global one so you need to modify it. However, I was unable to built any vendor even outta pure stock files. I already know what causes it but i can't fix it. Both vendors has euclid folder that consists outta 450mb of raw img files. I'm trying to convert em into any other img but unsuccessful so far.
Awesome. I hope this will work. I've aways wanted to shift to global from CN

I'm rooting for you a lot friend.
I hope you can, I would also love to change my CN to global, hugs
Did you manage to sort this out?
Support!
I don't know much about developing , but I am here to show my support. Wish we can flash a global from on to our devicecon day !
I am not on STOCK (LOS-UNOFFICIAL). Is there a way to flash C29 firmware and turn my CN device into a GLOBAL one?
I came to this just by occasion while trying different things with the phone.
Please keep in mind that there were 4 testers, but only 2 successful installations have been reported. Please consider participating in testing
So, the instruction itself:
Download the latest china fastboot ROM
Download your preferred, but one of the latest Recovery global ROM (I recommend Taiwan)
From recovery archive, with the help of payload-dumper-go extract vendor partition:payload-dumper-go -p vendor payload_bin_or_recovery_rom
Flash China ROM, then reboot to fastbootd: fastboot reboot fastboot
Flash vendor: fastboot flash vendor vendor.img
Flash patched vbmeta (you can find it yourself)
Now the system should boot just fine (dm-verity still may occur, but that's not critical)
How to OTA:
After the system prompts you for reboot, reboot into fastbootd: adb reboot fastboot and flash your vendor again, then flash pathced vbmeta
Problems:
On POCO, POCO launcher is being installed and it doesn't work. The fix is down this post
No Google services included, flash WeebGApps in Magisk. SafetyNet attestation WON'T WORK! AT ALL!
Everything else is working just fine (Camera, NFC, 5G)
POCO fix:
First of all, you have to enable USB debugging and installing apps via usb. Because the launcher is "blinking", you will have to get to developer options via quick settings. It might not work, so firstly get to any application from notification or quick settings button.
Once you've done that, install magisk via adb:adb install magisk.apk
Now you have to open it: adb shell monkey -p magisk.package.name (look for it in settings) -v 1
Patch boot image with magisk as usual and flash it
Open magisk again with the same method. Or flash via PC: adb push module.zip your/desired/location; adb shell; su; magisk --install-module module.zip
Flash P2Mi.zip
Reboot and enjoy
Hi, could you please kindly provide a url link to the Chinese roms?

I suppose you mean "Global phone models" by the Android devices other than Xiaomi & Redmi?
Have you tried flashing MIUI roms downloaded from the official site (https://www.miui.com/download.html) straight to Global phone models? And how was that?

So for the same model, for example, Redmi Note 10, Xiaomi developed a version (named "camellia") to sell in mainland China, and another (named "Camellian") for oversea market?

Ok, I see.
So am I right in saying that Chinese roms (on the official website listed here https://www.miui.com/download.html) customized for domestic model (ex. Camellia) cannot be installed on Global model (ex. Camellian)?

Yes. And it looks like the reason is vendor partition. I can't tell exactly what makes it crash with Chinese vendor

I understand now.
Why not simply install a Global miui for Camellian (https://new.c.mi.com/global/miuidownload/detail/device/1900390), rather than use a Chinese Rom customized for Camellia on Camellian?

Ok. Btw, how do you get to know if the version of Redmi Note 10 is Camellia or Camellian?

Build prop
i could flash both latest MIUI 13 dev (13.0.3.1.13) and stable (V13.0.8.0.SKSCNXM) without doing anything from your thread
cams and nfc (didnt try 5G since i dont have coverage) work well
im not sure if for older MIUI versions you can just flash it without requiring any steps from the post
(dev miui, always uses blue miui logo)
so i suppose flashing system.img china over could work?

Are you sure you got camlliaN, and not just camellia?
It's really interesting topic. In my case if I do not flash vendor I get rebooted into Recovery saying NVData is corrupted. For the other guy it didn't even boot, throws to fastboot
