Where are the devs? - Lenovo Phab 2 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion

The phone has been out for a while however i'm surprised there are no custom roms available for this phone yet.

Because those rom bakers only look for Phab 2 Pro... lol

2 plus is better, the way i see it. costs less, more people will get it and many would like to root and rom it.
im looking into getting it soon(if i can deal with letting another $200 go -just got the doogee y6max not long ago) I also just want to be sure i have the root process figured out. With the doogee, i asked for help and received none...but i still rooted it, luckily without problems.
I'm really hopeful some people jump in and get development going full speed on this phone(wishful thinking, maybe).

ROM tutorial, andriod for Levono phab 2 plus.
Hi I'm a developer and I have been looking for a custom ROM to upgrade my levono phab 2 plus to andriod 7.1 but it seems there is no such thing on the web, I'm wondering if does anyone know where I can find tutorials about how the ROM works and what should be modified in order to upgrade my phone? I can work on it it's just that I have no idea how android works so if can you provide information I will appreciate it.
Thanks,

Source code isn't available for MTK phones that's why no development. Even if Moto makes the code available, very few people actually try building.
If someone has been able to successfully root the device, please share the System and Boot partition backup made in TWRP. I can try bringing up a ROM.

Will Android Oreo (Go Edition) make it to Redmi 1s ?

So today android oreo (go edition) is announced and will start to roll out from 6th dec. 2017.
I would like to ask devs if they are interested to bring it up for armani because most of the roms these days are heavy and it would be really awesome to have it on our device since it is aimed for devices with 512mb to 1gb ram.
Thanks in advanced.
Has any device got Android Go till yet?
BTW it'll totally resurrect our device if that happens. I'm also excited about it.
Edit: Just saw news about Android Go. I hope we also get the taste of it.

I hope there will be a lineage GO version for the redmi 1S.
The present ROM's are too big. The device becomes slakky.
With de GO version maybe the redmi 1S gets a second life.

Try lineage microg ROM or other roms with nanomod go without gapps try fdroid apps as alternatives, it's highly unlikely we get fully working oreo ROM ( camera issue mainly )
Lineage 15.1 has Go configuration from today.

Any idea if it gives better performance than CM11?
I hope someone picks it up and delivers it to us can wait as long as it takes. I am all in for Android Go Oreo for Redmi 1S. To bring the much required lag free zing
The ROM is now launched and available in Nokia 1 smartphone. This project is worth going for. Request to devs...

Being that you're a member since 2017, I would have hoped you would know that these types of questions/requests do NOT get posted in development sections.
Also, if you think it's so easy to build custom ROMs, especially for locked down devices like Samsung, please try to build one yourself. Instead of using xda like it's a specialty store for making your phone cool, please remember that this is a site made by developers for developers. Please do not make demands like you are a paying customer here. All development provided on xda is done so free of charge. No one here owes you anything. Do some reading, learn some skills, and build a custom ROM for your device and post a thread here. Then maybe you'll understand why a demanding, entitled post like yours is truly seen as disrespectful to the community.

Need Custom ROM Support For Realme X2 CN/EU

Hello, I brought a Realme X2 CN about one month ago. Regularly I visit Realme X2 XDA forum but I didn't see any official or unofficial Custom Roms & Mods for this device. I bought the CN version at low cost and fast time because I know that XDA :goodeveloper. will help us to make the CN Rom to Global version and many Custom Rom. I just want to know that is there any active developer for this device? We are really waiting for you guys.
Wait for a while. The phone just got released worldwide. and there are many restriction imposed by realme.
Happy news for is is that ,realme is paying attention to it. Fingerprint of our device is working after unlocking bootloader and root.
So, soon we will hope to see development for our device.
Great thread, thank you!
Hopefully we can use it if someone finally finds a way to flash the EU ROM.
I am willing to make a small donation to the person who makes 100% fully functional way of flashing the EU ROM to the Chinese version of realme X2.
Good old Xiaomi... It was (is) so simple with their ROMs...
Hello !
How did you suceed to have fingerprint working after unlocking bootloader ?
Thanks
After removing all the Chinese apps and installing play store and necessary apps don't you guys feel comfortable to use Chinese rom as your daily driver? Why not?

you can't modify system Chinese apps without Unlock and rooting the device. And now the main problem starts 'Fingerprint' not work after bootloader unlocking. I there any one who work for solving the fingerprint issue?

There is a developer ready to make custom rom but he needs to purchase the device for which there is crowdfunding. So join this telegram channel and donate too, also share it. @realmeX2Official t.me/RealmeX2Official
I dont get why this phone is listed as a "top device" in the forums when theres not even one official custom ROM for it

It'll be coming soon. For updates join telegram group. Thanks.
I bought my phone on Aliexpress, it came with a customized rom without the Chinese apps, with Google Play installed and multilingual, if they managed to make a rom like that, then I believe there is a way for our problem, what we need is someone customize a rmx-1991 rom, which is the chinese rom

Why no progress in custom development for this device?

I know the Pro version and Pro Max version share the similar specs except physically the main camera sensor. I have a doubt if anything developed for Pro version will also work for Pro Max version like recovery, ROMs, etc. I see no lead for custom development here...
Please share your opinions and views.

There is Xiaomi.eu for redmi note 9 pro max but there aren’t any custom things because there is no TWRP release or at least I think that’s the reason or maybe it is the fact that it is quite new

These factors affects development of this device.
1. Lockdown
2. Flash Sale of Pro Max
Many people are still waiting for RN9P & RN9PM

Yes, they can be the reasons for the lack of development, but I see other devices like poco x2 and RN9P have been picking up pace quite fast even though they are also on flash sale, especially x2.
Let's see... :fingers-crossed:

Pro Max is Indian Version and didn't got any developers still for specific development but it has Unified ROM Builds which is also used in other Redmi Note 9 Pro versions called "miatoll". It is stable enough for Pro Max go and try it.

I am learning git now and I am going to buy Redmi Note 9 Pro Max in three months. Soon I will make a device specific trees for our device and start development of custom ROMs. But I also need testers to test my custom ROMs that I will be releasing in near future.

Actually There are a few roms (I'm using pixel experience). Just search for roms using the codename (Excalibur).
Extra info: I am using unofficial twrp since I was getting error7 when I was flashing using pitch black recovery

Unofficial twrp:
https://unofficialtwrp.com/twrp-3-4-1-root-redmi-note-9-pro-max/
Rom:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-9-pro/development/rom-pixel-experience-t4158325
So if you flash that twrp then everytime you connect your phone to pc, it will show "note 9 s". You can follow the step on how to flash, but when I flashed no_verity I got stuck in bootloop. So you can ignore that step
Rom is pixel experience, didn't see any bug yet. Just the front camera didn't feel optimised. Like when I taking selfie using apps like instagram or snapchat, it would be dark and blurry.
