Not all devices are updated to emui 5.1 mate. Hoping someone can help. Venu had it working but on Honor 8 with emui 5.0 (i think, i saw his one of post, it was for FRD model)

I had it working before also in Honor 8 B385. OldDroid was saying something about flashing a file that would keep the device from being encrypted at boot. But I can't find it anywhere.

That's ok mate. I don't want any other root solution other than Magisk. So I hope it settles soon.

Rooted with Magisk today and works seamless.
But I could not pass SafetyNet check.
First time I flashed a zip to remove dm-verity and it ran into bootloop. Make sure you don't do that

Root for XA1 G3121

Has anybody found an exploit to root this handset?

Just read up on it. I rooted my G3123 with a quick search here. You will use a root method for the Ultra. I'll look for it when I have time and post you the link. The only problem is supposedly the image quality on pictures goes down, but I didn't notice anything on my phone.

My only problem is a locked bootloader!! Forgot to mention that

Have you tried using flashtool?

Can someone please elaborate on the guide posted. It seems as though to flash the TWRP you FIRST need to flash that guys custom kernel, is this correct? I want to keep my current kernel while also installing TWRP, is this possible?

Installed Oreo Beta On Honor 8 Pro at Last!

Thanks to 23anand23 for his post (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=75120971&postcount=208) on how to update Indian DUK-L09 to Android 8 (unlocked bootloader needed) There is no problem in unlocking the bootloader, it's easy and non tedious job and the bootloader can be easily unlocked later if you want.
Everything is same except the new Oreo features. Also, I heard that it has Project treble support. As we know that Treble makes updates easy, but do you really think we will be getting updates?
[I am using Nova Launcher, so there are two images, one with default launcher and one with Nova]

@shailendra1993 How did you get the unlock code? Please share the guide.

You can use newpipe app for YouTube. It is available in fdroid store.

How to backup Lenovo K8 Note System Rom ?

I try many methods online and non worked, I search and no luck to backup current ROM before doing any root to device in case something wrong happen.
so I need to backup it, rather then try and search and download it.
maybe it's going to complex, current ROM is Android 7.1.1 NMB26.54-94

Seems no one is using this smartphone.

There is no way to do it or what?

There is no chance of hard bricking whatsoever by simply flashing a system image.
Use TWRP for what it's for, backing up then flash whatever you want.

Tbh I don't think lineage would really be that useful on this tablet. Yes Samsung experience isn't as smooth but the features Samsung adds is actually useful on a tablet. Like DEX. Hide nav bar button etc . Lineage you would loose most of this

I'd love to see LineageOS working well.. more so in a year or two when Samsung stops updating. Samsung features aren't that useful to me I actually disable most of them with titanium.

Hi dr460nf1r3,
I tried flashing twrp from this post several times after reseting by flashing a stock firmware, but every after flashing twrp, my device just boot loop and wouldn't get into OS. I downloaded system-arm64-aonly-gapps-su.img from here and flashed it, boot loop still appeared.
Details of my trying:
1. Reset device by flashing one of below stock firmware:
2. Make sure OEM unlocked, go to download mode, untick 'Auto reboot' in and then flash twrp_3.2.3-2_sm-t830_26918.tar with AP slot in .
3. Press volume up and Power buttons to go to twrp, at this , internal storage is not accessible, but I have an external micro sd card, which is accessible in twrp.
4.
a. If I reboot device, boot loop happens.
i. If I flash system-arm64-aonly-gapps-su.img to twrp's system partition, the flash is ok, but boot loop still happens.
b. If I flash TabS4_oreo_forced_encryption_disabler.zip and format data and then reboot to twrp, internal storage is accessible now, like below:
i. If I flash system-arm64-aonly-gapps-su.img in twrp's system partition, the flash is ok, but boot loop still happens.
boot loop screen:
I really want to flash a gsi rom because I'm a android developer, and firmwares mess up numbers of system code therefore is unfriendly to debugging. On the contrary, devices keep their numbers of code accurately same with system code in android sdk.
