Android Version : MM2_A10_PORT_REV_Q Easy recovery install.
You should be having proper knowledge of flashing Custom ROM and how to Restore a phone if anything goes wrong.
Take complete backup before taking any action based on this thread. I am not responsible for any action taken by you.
I am just compiling all the information / files available on different websites into this thread, I have patched together with cyber spit, bubblegum, and tape, for a pretty much fully working MM2_A10_PORT_REV_Q running rom. With the help from Mohzuned. I have removed what I believe to be all of the bloat. We worked to modify a working pie vendor. Magisk 19.5 installer is all ready included as well as the modified boot for root access.
All Credit goes to respective developer/s. I request XDA moderator and or Developer of Respective files to let me know if I have forgotten to mentioned (give credit) their name in this thread. The Download Links are given directly from respective Developer/s.
You need the following two files to Test Android 10 / Q on Mi Max 2 (Oxygen). This ROM recovery is ported from the Xiaomi RedMi with many patches and customized from various sources. This ROM maybe Stable enough for your daily use on Mi Max 2. I have access to two MM2 4/64 Global versions using a 1tb sd card one on At&t the other on Tmobile and MOST features I need are currently working.

First step:
Start your phone into recovery and Flash a Treble recovery, if already not flashed. Restart into Recovery.
Click Wipe then Advance wipe and clear System, Vendor, Boot, Data, Cache, and Dalvick cache.
Second step:
Now Extract the Downloaded Rom files in Recovery backup folder. You should know where and how to Extract. (Use extract tool for android or pc then copy paste to recovery backup folder.)
Third step:
Click Restore and Select System, Boot, Vendor and Swipe to confirm. Wait for restore to complete. If any errors, Reboot recovery and try again. Or Mount the System, Vendor, Boot and try again. After Restore completes Reboot. Please allow 1-2 Minutes for first boot.
Fourth step:
Flash Gapps , If you want.
What works:
Cell Service, Wifi 5ghz/2.4ghz, HW buttons. * Sound Fixed *
What doesn't work:
We will find out. Fixes and various a10 roms should be popping up soon from Scissordragonboy & Others
Guys, this is far from perfect Android 10 package, But now the door is opened for our lovely Xiaomi Mi Max 2 (Oxygen) for future updates.
If I missed anything in the above, kindly let me know to include. If you make any further updates / patches that makes this ROM more stable / perfect or enables new features, please don't hesitate to message me to include in this thread.
I have an old PC running windows with 8gb max at any one given time, So if you would like to make the recovery image into a flashable zip, I'd be happy to update/add it.
If you can afford it, Im trying to save for a computer from this decade, any help is appreciated

If you would like to use the boot, vendor, system, or any other files, All I ask is pass on the proper credits. With this we should be able to have many fully functioning android Q in the near future.

Download the zip, extract it, then go to orange fox recovery and make a backup of your current rom. Then boot your current rom and copy the extracted file into Fox>backup>folder>another folder then delete the existing files and paste the copied files and then from the recovery restore the backup.
Na just format data and all good now. ROM still there but all save data gone yes. Working OK for now still too buggy for everyday use but a step in the right direction

Recovery and back up your old ROM on micro SD card not internal storage. Format data as need clean partition to flash this or will get password at boot. Extract ROM zip on PC and copy to backup folder in twrp on phone. Then wipe all as stated restore as stated and it will boot

Sorry, this is just a hobby, as I retired my mm2s due to missing USA frequency bands.
1> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cz.nowi.whitescreen like the old android days
2>haven't experienced
3>Not needed, I have a light on my cord.
4>Try headphones ( I haven't, But some report they work )
5>Flash gapps, or install what you like.
6>I don't use phone alarms, If I'd need one, I use my smart watch, or Id use alexa.
Keep in mind most phones don't have a booting A10,
I did what I could on an ancient Asus 901 eee pc netbook.
When time and system resources permit, I will try to fix it up a bit.
But honesty relying on our friend, Mohzuned (Scissordragonboy) , when he finds time, He has access to a super computer, But also he's working on many projects.
Let's all wish him well.

Write us an update kernel/vendor yourself, or donate cash towards a computer and it would look better..... FASTER.
In the meantime, consider having patience, most older systems don't even have android 10 booting with RIL. And you realize we don't get paid for our time.
Its comments like this and similar, that make people quite.
Ask hardrock83, beingtejas.....pffft

Android 10 from original source is being worked on.

Dual Boot for P990 & SU660 on Both Bootloaders
Now with more and more new ROMs being released every day and only one phone (at least for most of us) to try them all, I think this was needed.
It is based on the method Bihariel found on a Chinese forum and his latest v2 version for the old bootloader and my previous version 3 for the new one.
It is now modified to work on both bootloaders and Partition layouts. Read change log for details.
Thanks to:
SuperSkill personally, for digging it up from the grave and giving me the vote of confidence to port dual boot into the new bootloader. He is also the 1st after me, who tested it. (thank you again my friend)
KingMGT personally, for helping me make the necessary modifications for SU660 and of course for testing it since I don’t own a SU660. (thank you again my friend)
Bihariel of course, for his great work on which I based the new version (and for copying a lot of text from his thread)
ChinaGB, the creator of the System changer app and the original idea.
What is this useful for?
Devs: you can have one ROM configured and ready for use in one partition and a second partition to test your ROMs without touching your daily ROM, so you won/t need to wipe or backup anything.
Users: you can have a stable ROM, let’s say a stock ROM with everything working and configured and you can have a second partition to test ROMs (for example a custom stock based one or a CM10 beta) so you won't need to do backups and wipes.
How Dual Boot works?
Dual-Enabler.zip: this file enables Dual boot by splitting system partition into two.
Dual-ROM-1-to-XX.zip: this file have to be flashed after flashing ROM 1, after flashing it and boot the phone, you will find an app called system changer, by launching this app and selecting Switch ROM, the phone will reboot and start the ROM 2.
Dual-ROM-2-to-XX.zip: this file have to be flashed after flashing ROM 2, after flashing it and boot the phone, you will find an app called system changer, by launching this app and selecting Switch ROM, the phone will reboot and start the ROM 1.
What ROMs can I use?
P990 Devices:
You can use theoretically, any combination of ROMs for dual booting, working on the same Bootloader of course.
SU660 Devices:
On OLD layout you can use theoretically, any combination of ROMs for dual booting, working on this Bootloader of course.
On ICS layout, due to lack of any custom ROMs for SU660, the p990 layout and bootloader is used so only custom CM, PA & MIUI ROMs are compatible, working on this Bootloader of course.
Attention !! The only ROMs you should not use are Auto-wipe ROMs because they will delete your data partition and with it ROM1 and ROM2 save files. Of course if you are an advanced user, you can open the wipe rom and modify the updater-script to remove the auto wipe lines.
Download from here the package for your device and follow the instructions in post #2.
For older versions follow the instructions included in package.
Change Log:
v5.0 Date 05 Feb 2013
DualBoot-Control.zip. All five zips used till now for enabling/maintaining Dual-Boot have been replaced by this aroma-style flash-able zip.
SU660 package now supports also the su660 ics bootloader & layout.
V4.6 Date 30 Jan 2013
512MB-512MB system partitions for both bootloaders,
Reduced data (to 2000MB) for old-bootloader (because a 2048MB one cannot be formatted on old bootloader)
Bug-fix for dual-boot remover (SystemChanger app wasn't removed).
V4.5 Date 22 Jan 2013
Now it auto enters recovery after repartitioning. No need to keep pressing Vol- & Pwr.
Linux nvflash binary added. (I had forgotten to include it in package, sorry.)
Minor changes in flash.sh (for linux).
V4 Date 20 Jan 2013
It now works on both bootloaders. During repartition with nvflash you have the option to select which one
In old bootloader the system partition is splitted in 370MB for ROM1 and 512MB for ROM2 (in case someone wants to install tonyp's & harsh's full ICS version for old bootloader).
Same simple procedure to enable and maintain dual-boot.
Common flash-able zips because they detect current bootloader and partition layout and act accordingly.
Re-compiled SystemChanger app to display more correct messages and also in which ROM you are switching to.
V3 Date 12 Jan 2013
System partition size is 512 MB for each ROM.
Data partition is still shared but with the max size of 2GB.
Included latest cwm recovery 6.0.2.5 by pengus77. It works for all available ROMs for new BL (DM X, FLEX-ICER & unofficial CM10 CM10.1 ones)
NewBL-Dual-Enabler’s scripts are modified not only for the new layout but now also check and format (if needed) the internal SD (the first time after NVFlash is always needed). It also returns to recovery automatically to let you install or restore the 1st ROM.
NewBL-Dual-ROM-1-to-XX.zip & NewBL-Dual-ROM-2-to-XX.zip no longer need to be updated with the boot images of the ROMs.
SystemChanger app’s scripts, before switching to the other ROM, check if current ROM is changed (by md5 checksum of its build.prop as before) and saves the boot.img for next switch.
noshare file, containing the data folders list, is now also saved under /data/dual-boot. This way it will be always accessible and updatable if needed, no matter which ROM is running.
Boot images and md5 checksums are also saved under /data/dual-boot.
Two more flash-able zips added:
Wipe-ROM-data.zip This will wipe the data of the current ROM. Useful for changing ROM or if required by ROM’s chef
Remove-DualBoot.zip This will wipe the data of the other ROM and will also remove the SystemChanger app and scripts from the current ROM. Useful if you want to make a clean nandroid backup, to restore after a repartition to normal layout.
For V2 change log see bihariel's thread
Here is the guide to get Real Dual boot on both BLs.
Please read carefully because this may mess up your phone if you don't know what you are doing.
Oh!! I forgot, this phone is unbrickable, so give it a try.
Installation Instructions
Extract the downloaded package with WinRAR or similar to any folder.
Copy ROM1, ROM2 and the DualBoot-Control.zip to external SD.
Go to the folder DualBoot-Partition-resizer and run flash.bat (or flash.sh for linux) follow on-screen instructions select BootLoader and wait until NVFlash process finishes and the screen goes black.
Disconnect the USB cable, put the battery back and just power on the phone it will enter into recovery automatically. (It takes about 40 secs to enter recovery 1st time after NVFlash)
Install DualBoot-Control.zip and select Enable Dual Boot option. The phone will reboot (if supported by recovery) and enter in recovery again (if not select reboot recovery from recovery).
Make a full wipe just in case to avoid boot-loops and format /system because it may not be formatted by ROM’s updater-script (mounts and storage --> format /system)
Now flash ROM1 (or restore a nandroid backup of ROM1) and without rebooting install DualBoot-Control.zip, select ROM1 update and reboot when it finishes.
When the phone completely boots, you will find an app called SystemChanger, launch it and click Switch ROM, it will ask you for root rights, click yes, the phone will reboot quickly, press and hold Pwr button + vol down when the screen goes black to enter recovery, if the phone doesn't go to recovery, remove the battery, plug it again and enter recovery.
Format /system (the 2nd system now), because it may not be formatted by ROM’s updater-script.
Now flash ROM2 and without rebooting install DualBoot-Control.zip, select ROM2 update and reboot when it finishes. (Attention: do not restore a backup of ROM2 because it will wipe data files of ROM1)
And that is all, if you want to switch to ROM1, as before, run SystemChanger and click Switch ROM.
Note for those having experienced the older version 2: No need to add boot images in Dual-ROM zips any more.
How to change/update a ROM or Kernel
You have to be on the ROM you want to change/update.
Enter Recovery
If you are changing the ROM or kernel and/or a wipe is needed, install the DualBoot-Control.zip and select Wipe current ROM data.
Flash the ROM or kernel and before reboot install the DualBoot-Control.zip and select ROM1 update if you flashed ROM1 or ROM2 update if you flashed ROM2.
Info: There is also the wipe-rom-x-data.sh in /data/dual-boot/ which can be used to delete the non-running Rom’s data. You can also run this from terminal or adb shell to clean the data of the non-running Rom quickly. For example if you are on ROM1 and you want to change the ROM2 run the script, switch to ROM2 but when screen goes black press pwr & vol- to enter recovery.
How to disable Dual Boot
You have to be on the ROM you want to keep.
Enter Recovery
Install the DualBoot-Control.zip and select Remove Dual Boot. This will wipe the data of the other ROM and will also remove the SystemChanger app and scripts. Useful if you want to make a clean nandroid backup, to restore after a repartitioning to normal layout with AIO-Toolkit.
Enjoy it !!
Wow......one thing i ws missing on NEW BL......thank you so much....now can hold onto this phone for 1more year....
This is just Aweosme <3 will give a try for sure ! LG O2X still the Crazy phone will try today eveng and comment back again ! can i try CM10.1 & V30B (Roms available) ???
Kudooos 4 ur post
This is what i need, i often flash rom 1 to another and restore my app and setting manualy... with this i would keep my daily rom and other for testing
thanks good job
Spyrosk, again, CONGRATULATIONS, this is another great product useful for all of us. To drop the bomb; i think you should add this in AIO, it would be natural if possible. Ive tested this during the weekend, its more easy than the previous gb version. Huge thanks for doing this spyrosk and also huge thanks to Bihariel who did the gb version, you have my deepest respect
Let me give you another challenge lol
It should be possible to.......no no, I must shut up now.
Thanks mate
Nice ! Trying soon... :fingers-crossed:

No, don't give me another challenge now. :laugh:
I am thinking on making a v3 version for old bootloader too, or even better a v4 hybrid one for both bootloaders. So I do have work for now.
Yes I could integrate that into AIO-toolkit eventually in an "Addvanced Options" menu , but let's see how it is working, when more users will try it and "cure" any "baby sicknesses" that may come up first.
I can't thank you enough for your testing it so thoroughly.
I really appreciate it.
i don't really understand how this dual boot work
but, can i use my internal sd card for booting stock-based custom rom and using my external one for booting CM10 based rom?

The only thing that can be done at the moment, is having one 370MB & one 512MB system partitions on the upcoming gb dual-boot version for installing the tonyp's and harsh's full ics 28g version as 2nd ROM on old bootloader.
I installed yesterday dual boot on my 2X and worked fine without any problems!
Great tool Spyrosk!!
You have done our life easier!!!
Thank you for dual boot
is indeed something very special!!!

3.Go to the folder NewBL-DualBoot-Partition-resizer and run flash.bat (or flash.sh for linux) follow on-screen instructions and wait until NVFlash process finishes and the screen goes black.
sorry, i didnt see it with linux
EDIT: no sorry. i mean, i want to dualboot android/linux (debian, ubuntu, etc.).

How about flashing the second rom that have aroma installer??
TWRP is an open source, community project. TWRP development is done by roughly 4 people at this point. We also have a large support community with many people who are willing to answer questions and help people with their devices either through our IRC channel or on forums like xda-developers.
Team Win was originally formed to work on porting WiMAX to CM7 for the HTC EVO 4G. After our work on the EVO 4G we wanted to work on a project that would work on more devices than just the EVO 4G and we settled on working on a recovery. Today TWRP is the leading custom recovery for Android phones.
A custom recovery is used for installing custom software on your device. This custom software can include smaller modifications like rooting your device or even replacing the firmware of the device with a completely custom "ROM" like OmniROM

WARNING!!! Be careful what you do here. One mistake and the device is soft-bricked. I take no responsibility for bricked devices, lost warranty or even OTAs not working!! Booting and/or flashing files from this post is on your own risk.
Requirements
Unlocked bootloader
Yoga Tablet 3 Plus with and without LTE (YT-X703L and YT-X703F) are supported
Known Issues
WARNING! Our device uses dm-verity (verified boot). The system partition should remain read-only. Otherwise a bootloop will occur. You can flash my modified kernel or SuperSU to resolve this but OTA's are no longer possible! You have to restore a factory image or clean system backup to receive OTAs
Potentially DRM keys are lost! Pure unlocking and rooting does not cause the issue. However, there have been reports of lost DRM keys by some unknown action. It is advised to act with caution. Losing your DRM keys can lead to issues with some apps which use DRM which could then have limited or no functionality. E.g. Netflix will only stream in SD (480p). You can check with DRM info if you still have L1 security level which means DRM keys are intact.
Download
Official TWRP for YT-X703F (Wifi): twrp.me
Official TWRP for YT-X703L (LTE): twrp.me
Instructions
Install fastboot and adb on your PC, e.g. from here
Enable developer options and in there select to unlock your bootloader by enabling OEM unlock and enable USB debugging
Connect your PC to your tablet and run
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
using adb on command line. The tablet will reboot into bootloader mode where you will only see the Lenovo logo. Now you use
Code:
fastboot oem unlock-go
to unlock. This will factory reset your device
Setup the tablet again and reboot again to the bootloader
Then run
Code:
fastboot boot twrp-3.2.1-0-yt_x703f.img
to temporarily boot into TWRP. You can also flash if you are sure
Select to keep system read only when TWRP starts to avoid modification which will make OTAs impossible
Optionally flash SuperSU or Magisk in TWRP which should install system less. Keep OEM unlock enabled if you flash or modify anything

Modified Boot image with forceencrypt disabled and it switches off CABC fully. You need to factory reset after flashing to format data without encryption boot_yt_x703f_s000963_noforceencrypt_cabc.img (YT-X703F S000963) / boot_yt_x703l_s000963_noforceencrypt_cabc.img (YT-X703L S000963) . Use
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot_yt_x703f_s000963_noforceencrypt_cabc.img
to flash the kernel in fastboot. SuperSU or Magisk should be flashed afterwards if root is desired.
Full factory images with flash tool and instructions YT_X703F_S000689, YT_X703L_S000704, YT_X703F_S000725, YT_X703L_S000725, YT_X703F_S000734, YT_X703L_S000734, YT_X703L_S000744, YT-X703F_S000744, YT-X703L_S000963, YT-X703F_S000963 and OTA updates: MEGA (These images contain the individual boot, recovery and system images that you need to restore from any modification mentioned above)
System Updates (OTA)
In order to successfully apply Lenovo system updates after root you have to restore the original boot, recovery (if you flashed TWRP) and system partitions from your current installed version (e.g. S000744) for your variant of the tablet. This will NOT delete your apps and data but will unroot. Note that OTAs are block based and always check the contents of most of the partitions. This means that all of these partitions (except your data) have to be original and have to be on the exact same version (e.g. S000734) for the update to succeed.
See here for instructions how to restore the partitions with fastboot.

Thanks buddy! You are an absolute champion! Tell me what you need me to do and I'll do it before rooting and up load what you need.
Doing good work here.
Who wants to bet on a race between matshias and Lenovo support for who can fix the issues with this device first?
That's great and fast, I'm thinking tab 3 plus is getting hot now.
Great to see there is something moving for the yoga now. You think it will support the lte Version anytime? Or maybee even lineageos?
so you know, i've managed to install xposed thanks to this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/unofficial-systemless-xposed-t3388268 and is working well.

Well if you haven't modified anything yet then it'd be great if you can boot into TWRP with system read only and then connect via ADB to the tablet with a big SD card inserted which has enough free space (4 GB).
The run the following command
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/system of=/sdcard1/system.img
This will take a while. Then copy the file system.img from your SD card to a PC and zip it (or 7z, rar). Then upload it

The LTE variant is probably very similar and it wouldn't be much work. But I don't own the device, so I would need some help. So someone with the LTE variant who is not afraid to experiment with fastboot and adb and who can provide me with the details needed I am happy to compile a TWRP for it.
LineageOS is much much more work than TWRP. For an experienced cyanogenmod/LineageOS dev it is not much of a thing and would take only a few days, especially since it is a Qualcomm device and there are already ports for devices with SD 652. But for me this is new as well so it'll take much longer. As soon as I have time I'll look into it.

I think I forgot one more thing. The external SD card needs to be mounted in the TWRP menu. I believe it's not mounted automatically. So the DD command does nothing. It shouldn't take that long. Sorry about that!

If that's real it would have saved me a lot of time finding the loophole in the system to extract the boot and recovery image. But still a great find which will rescue some soft-bricked devices.

- T W R P 3.2.3-0L [Labs Mod] -
The Swiss Army Knife TWRP Mod for the Axon 7
INTRODUCTION
This was a long term project that I have been using for a long time. I created some scripts to make it easier and faster to flash new roms and quickly restore the daily driver configuration after a testing session. For easier access I modified the TWRP interface to add direct access to the scripts. They had many problems but they were good to me since I created them and I knew how to used them well, but they were not ready for other users.
But the time has come and I have cleaned up most of the annoyances in the tools and in the UI. I have named it "Labs Mod" since it allows me to have my flashing lab on the go, making it extremely easy to switch to different configurations, or recover the daily driver configuration in a few minutes. I believe it is free of major bugs and now I can concentrate on adding new scripts, and more options to the current scripts.
FEATURES
On top of the latest improvements introduced in the official TWRP 3.2.3-0, this mod offers the following added features:
Full vendor partition support (mount, format, wipe, partition image flash, TWRP backup and restore).
Integrated Bootstack backup and restore.
Modem firmware image flash
Reboot to EDL
Button to enable device mapper verity (DM-Verity) enforcing
Button to disable the eMMC write protection (disemmcwp)
Backup/Restore internal storage to the TWRP Backup folder in the external SD. Ensure you have enough free space, free space check is not yet implemented.
EDL backup zip creation. Dual zip use since the resulting zip can be installed using TWRP from the phone or using MiFlash from the computer. It offers the following package creation options:
OS: Operating system (boot, vendor and system).
GPT: Partition table only.
CONFIG: Device config data (IMEI, SN, MAC, etc).
BOOTSTACK: Boot firmware without modem.
MINIMAL: Includes GPT+bootstack+modem+recovery.
EMERGENCY: Minimal + device config.
FULL: Minimal + OS.
FACTORY: Includes Full + config.
Integrated Treble PARTY tool for creating and removing the vendor partition. Vendor partition is required for Treble ROMs. Removal is required for flashing old non-treble roms.
Lockscreen security removal. Removes password, pattern, fingerprint, etc... (in case you forget your password or the security descriptor gets corrupted).
Google account binding removal (in case you want to wipe from within recovery and test with different google accounts).
Bootloader unlock message removal.
New! Expand OS partitions (Vendor and System) to fit the whole partition. Useful for expanding the GSI filesystem for having space for adding GApps or moving apps to system.
New! Deep Wipe function performs a low level wipe of the partition data, erasing the remaining the portions of the eMMC that stored the partition information.
REQUIREMENTS
You need an unlocked Axon 7
INSTALLATION
WARNING, THIS SOFTWARE COULD WIPE ALL THE DATA IN YOUR DEVICE, INCLUDING THE INTERNAL STORAGE.
IT REQUIRES TWRP CUSTOM RECOVERY IN AN UNLOCKED DEVICE, OTHERWISE YOUR DEVICE COULD BE BRICKED.
!!! Whatever you do, it is at your own risk !!!
Follow these steps:
1. Download the TWRP Labs Mod image to your External SD card.
2. Boot to TWRP and select the Install option in the main manu.
3. Tap on the install image button and select your external SD. select the image file you downloaded, select the recovery partition and confirm.
4. Reboot to recovery again to ensure the changes are applied properly.
DOWNLOAD
TWRP_3.2.3-0L_v1.3-Axon7-Labs_Mod.img Flavor of the mod using the official TWRP 3.2.3-0 Kernel binary (Quick boot even when using F2FS, full ADB support, NO B12 Oreo encryption). Use this if you do not plan on using device encryption. Please note that you won't be able to use any tool of this version if your device is encrypted.
TWRP_3.2.3-0L_v1.3.B12-Axon7-Labs_Mod.img Device encryption enabled flavor of the Labs mod. It use the 3.2.1-8 TWRP Kernel binary (Long boot when using F2FS, NO ADB support, B12 Oreo encryption). Use this one if you use device encryption. Please note that this flavor doesn't support adb interface.
NOTES
1. I do not have the time and expertise to dig into kernel hack so this is why I do not provide a unified kernel with fast F2FS boot, ADB and B12 encryption. Probably people developing kernels could help on this issue. It would be nice having a kernel with proper F2FS boot support, B12 encryption and ADB interface. Until then, there is no other way than having 2 flavors depending on the features we require.
SOURCES
C'mon, all of them are scripts!!! the sources are at glance. Use them in your projects but don't forget to give credit to the source !!!
CREDITS
@NFound for the recovery kernel binary supporting Oreo B12 encryption.
@someone755 for the keycheck binary I use in my scripts.
@Chainfire for the TWRP install script hacks.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I did creating and learning throughout the enlightenment journey.
Nice.
Any info on the scripts that are included?

Well, all of them are Bourne shell scripts. Some of them are stupidly simple such as those in the Reboot menu, and others in the Advanced > Oki Labs menu are very elaborated, specially:
- PARTY tool: for creating and removing the vendor partition. I released it a few days ago as a separated tool that could well work in other devices.
- EDL backup: for creating EDL flashable backups of a configuration. This tool will probably require a full thread due to the concepts involved. The big feature is that the generated zip can be also flashed using any TWRP.
- Internal Storage Backup/Restore: TWRP doesn't offer a straightforward solution for backing up the internal storage, since it is excluded from the data backup, now it is possible to create a backup and restore the contents of the internal SD in case you want to mess up with the userdata partition. Now this script creates a set of files under the TWRP/backup folder. I am planning to add the possibility of having different backup folders, the same way the GUI treats the data partition.
That is looking very sweet!!!
I'm excited, nice work man!
This is just fantastic!
Well, the non b12 version can't decrypt my device, running los 15.1
also, the lab options did nothing, and when I pressed on PARTY the recovery froze on me.
Hmm.

Well, that's why in the OP I provide 2 flavors of the mod. If you require decrypt then you have to use the B12. PARTY will not work either if your device is encrypted and you are using the 3.2.3-0L. In your case, using device encryption, you have to use the 3.2.3-0L(B12). You will have all the functions except for ADB. PARTY will work fine too.

I thought the B12 version was for stock-based ROMs.
Okay I'll flash the other one once I get home, thanks.

Thnx for this tool ! I'll test that this weekend.
It would be great if you'd make a small guide on this with a couple of situations / a possible indepth review with screens / what's possible and what's definitely not possible with this twrp tool.
Anyway seems very promising :good:
Sheesh...i have no external sd card
I have garde flashed your TWRP_3.2.3-0L (B12) -Axon7-Labs_Mod.img but this version says when starting in twrp that my password is wrong. the version 3.2.1.8 of nfound unlocks my password quite normal
Excellent Job! I can't wait to get back my Axon 7 from RMA Services. I'm just going to need sometime to get this running coming from stock MIflavor.
Found bug. Installed the ADB version (thanks Cthulu!), wanted to check the functionality.
Went into the Storage Backup and my phone froze. Rebooting from ADB worked.
EDIT: tried to reproduce the issue - same thing happened 2nd time.
EDIT2: It freezes at any option in Oki Labs

I can't duplicate the issue. Are you sure you downloaded it properly? Do you have an SD card? The backup requires an SD card with enough space. Checking for free space is in the todo list for this weekend.

What option are you testing? the Storage Backup? What format are you using in your SDCard? Does it happen at the beginning or after a while? Is there any file under TWRP/BACKUPS/STORAGE in your Micro SD after the failure?
@Oki this is amazing. Thank you.
Is it possible to use the recently released kernel sources from los15 to solve the issue of needing two revisions?

Take complete backup before taking any action based on this thread. I am not responsible for any action taken by you.
I am just compiling all the information / files available on different websites into this thread, I have patched together with cyber spit, bubblegum, and tape, for a pretty much fully working Android 10 running rom. I have removed what I believe to be all of the bloat. Worked to modify a working android 10 vendor. Latest Magisk 19.5 installer is all ready included as of Oct 10th 2019 as well as the modified boot for root access. Gapps are also included for a fully functioning playstore.
All Credit goes to respective developer/s. I request XDA moderator and or Developer of Respective files to let me know if I have forgotten to mentioned (give credit) their name in this thread. The Download Links are given directly from respective Developer/s.
You need the following two files to run Android 10 on Mi Max 2 (Oxygen). This ROM recovery is ported with many patches and customized from various sources. This ROM maybe Stable enough for your daily use on Mi Max 2. I have access to two MM2 4/64 Global versions using a 1tb sd card one on At&t the other on Tmobile.

First step:
Start your phone into recovery and Flash a Treble recovery, if already not flashed. Restart into Recovery.
Click Wipe then Advance wipe and clear System, Vendor, Boot, Data, Cache, and Dalvick cache.
Second step:
Now Extract the Downloaded Rom files in Recovery backup folder. You should know where and how to Extract. (Use extract tool for android or pc then copy paste to recovery backup folder.)
Third step:
Click Restore and Select System, Boot, Vendor and Swipe to confirm. Wait for restore to complete. If any errors, Reboot recovery and try again. Or Mount the System, Vendor, Boot and try again. After Restore completes Reboot. Please allow 1-2 Minutes for first boot, Ignore any errors.
If I missed anything in the above, kindly let me know to include. If you make any further updates / patches that makes this ROM more stable / perfect or enables new features, please don't hesitate to message me to include in this thread.
I have an old PC running windows with 8gb HDD (Asus 901 eeepc) max at any one given time, So if you would like to make the recovery image into a flashable zip, I'd be happy to update/add it.
If you can afford it, Im trying to save for a computer from this decade, any help is appreciated

Sorry didn't know what you meant
If someone doesn't, I'll try and get some later today, Still getting over illness, now on additional 2 meds for a total of 25...So a little loopy.
And now had a small house fire, So most electrical outlets down, no hotwater, sheesh..... Dogs still alive so no country song yet.
You have any ideas about camera controller fix ?
From Jio outgoing doesnt work might be due to absence of VoLTE but incoming call works on Jio.

Sorry I don't anything about JIo
No matter on the mi max 2, I never got volte, my carrier didn't support it.. I could barely get a real 4g connection, at only 1mb/down
Screen mirroring dont work..reboot phone
We all know flashing ROMs got a lot more complicated with the advent of A/B partitions.
This is not my work, the aim here is only to highlight a process which simplifies the task.
Original post on the OnePlus 6 forum can be found here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/script-copy-oxygenos-base-partitions-to-t4097979
It makes use of a script which copies the flashed firmware to both slots without having to reboot recovery and do it a second time. Also by not having to reboot recovery you avoid the issue where internal storage becomes unreadable.

The following posts detail it's usage which you follow at your own risk.
Clean Flashing a new ROM
Disable lockscreen security
Boot TWRP 3.4+
1) Flash latest OOS
2) Flash ROM
3) Flash TWRP installer
4) Flash Finalize.zip
5) Format data; type 'yes' (backup as this wipes phone)
6) Boot System
Reboot recovery to flash additional zips.
Updating OOS base whilst on a custom ROM
Boot TWRP 3.4+
1) Flash latest OOS
2) Flash ROM
3) Flash TWRP installer
4) Flash Finalize.zip
5) Boot System
Reboot recovery to flash additional zips.
Updating a custom ROM (nothing fancy here)
Boot TWRP 3.4+
1) Flash ROM
2) Flash TWRP installer
3) Boot System
Reboot recovery to flash additional zips.
Reverting to OOS
WARNING I've yet to test this!
Boot TWRP 3.4+
1) Flash latest OOS
2) Flash Finalize.zip
3) Format data; type 'yes' (backup as this wipes phone)
4) Boot System
Note: this will revert you to stock recovery as well.
Tip:
Chain install the zips by selecting 'Add more Zips' after selecting the first zip.
Only 'Swipe to confirm Flash' once all zips have been queued.
I recommend numbering the zips in the order they need flashed.
Note: this issue is now resolved as of 09/08/20 as per https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6t/how-to/guide-rom-flashing-easy-t4143701/post83241857
As a side note and given that I show an OmniROM zip in the previous screenshots here's a fix required for flashing OmniROM.
I use Mixplorer to do the following.
1) Open the OmniROM weekly zip
2) Navigate to folder shown
3) Open metadata
4) Edit oneplus6t to OnePlus6T
5) Save metadata
OmniROM will now flash successfully in TWRP.
Nice post! Don't mean to be rude but is kinda redundant as my thread already existed: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/script-copy-oxygenos-base-partitions-to-t4097979

Didn't know your post existed. Only learnt about the method on Pixen OS thread which uses it and gives you credit as did I. A lot of people only look in their own phone forum. If you don't mind I'll leave this thread open. However if you aren't happy I'll ask a mod to close it.
Deleted. Think maybe I'm getting altimeters. ?

You can keep it open ofc I don't mind.
However, yes, many people only see in their device's forums but since this script will work w/ any A/B device, is there a forum I could post in so that all device owners can see it??

Good question.
Is 'Android Development and Hacking / General' the right place? There are some all device guides with a lot of views in there.

As of 09/08/20 build and this commit all is well with OMNI and TWRP again. No need to edit the ROM zip anymore.
Is there a proper way to switch from one custom rom to another without formatting the data? Encryption and A/B made the custom rom game so crazy and time taking now. Or maybe I lost track of things. I could always take a backup of storage on laptop but the backups are very huge, mostly 80gb+ and takes forever while backing up whatsapp databases with images thumbnails and all.

No when switching ROM formatting data will be necessary. Not used it myself but others recommend Migrate to restore apps and data.
I was looking for a way to backup current rom using twrp, test a rom and then be back on the original rom with a twrp restore. If anyone finds a way to do this without format data, pls let me know.

I just restored PiXeN from AOSPA on 6t device and had no issues and I did NOT format my data or do anything but let TWRP do it's restore then rebooted system.. Just backup your system, data and boot partitions and restore them then reboot system. I didn't encrypt my backup using a pw in recovery. I also use magisk canary latest and the themed TWRP recovery 3.4.0-v1 from EvoX rom that acuicultor compiles and morphine1 themes. I've not restored yet using any other TWRP so not sure what works and what doesn't as far as that goes but the themed recovery works for me.
**Formatting data is unavoidable when installing an AOSP custom rom coming from stock OOS rom.

And I've also had to format data before as well but not lately. Could it be because I format both slots coming from OOS or because I use Canary Magisk or the recovery I use.. No idea but next time you are on EvoX backup system, data and boot and try and restore it using that recovery that comes with EvoX and see what happens. These last few weeks I've stayed on AOSiP and PixeN and I flashed Omni once I think but restoring from AOSPA to Pixen was flawless for me and also restoring Pixen to Pixen was also fine, which I do because I always mess around with sound mods.... I'm on AOSiP now and soon as I get more charge on my phone I'm going to try and restore to something I have a backup already made on one of my USB drives and I'll edit this post and report what the outcome is...
