Now that the entire kernel source is released, is anyone working on building a custom recovery and rom for this device? I was looking at building orange fox recovery for it but I couldn't find how to make it with android 13 decryption support.

Ohh ok. This phone is a little different from my last one op9p..recovery was inside ramdisk..so usually I would boot twrp.img and flash recovery to ramdisk..
I tried fastboot boot twrp.img..it switched to slot b..so I had to set active back to slot a..my mistake
I'll try your method and report back. Thanks!

It's reading internal storage( decrypted ofc).. Little laggy but usable.. Do you need logs or anything? I'll mess with it a little bit later today.

Hello. Installed your TWRP, but the internal memory is not displayed and there is no active OTG. Did you do something wrong ?

This isn't my twrp.. I'm already decrypted, so I just test it. I could read internal storage on mine. Your probably still encrypted, so it wouldn't work for you.

Extract the file to a directory then put your phone in bootloader, connect your phone then go to the directory you extract and click on 8pro****.bat (*** for some chinese character). Your phone will then boot after it is done. However this is not a free rom you can run it for 30 minutes and you will have hard time to get back to stock rom since this rom modify the stock rom partitions.

I going to buy it from the maker he going do some changing to English with full support
Have someone tried that miui 14 rom? Are there any screenshots or something about what happens after 30 minutes? Might be possible to just remove that restrictions, but unless there's an easy way to revert back to stock (EDL or something), don't think it makes sense to flash it. Better wait for someone to build a proper CAF/CLO ROM (i.e. Paranoid Android)

It's MIUI, there's nothing that could fix that
That's not the point tho. Gonna assume no one yet tried flashing it (so the potential drawbacks not including 30 minutes lifetime are unknown. Should be always possible to remove that from ROM anyway). And we still don't have any way to unbrick, ZTE doesn't want to give us the flash tool for bs reasons.

Has anyone done a dirty flash over the other CM build successfully? I'm about to give it a try.
Edit: Just flashed over the old build with no issues. Thanks!! I'll provide a screenshot once it finishes preparing the apps.
NOTE: Remember install gapps in same time with the rom (if you need/like)
NOTE2: Remember factory reset and format system partition when coming from any other ROM than previous version of TS CM13.0

Are you using x720 or x727?

Weird, it's not flashing for me. I'm stuck on patching system. I'm coming from stock.
I also noticed the ZIP contains firmware images. Not knowing where they're from, I'm a little worried if something goes wrong or is in compatible I can't get the x727 firmware files back.

I have seen conflicting info on this can you give me the exact edits u did to the build prop if it works please. Since you are on the 727 don't you need to flash the band 12 also?
Please read description and instructions before any steps.
It's for LEX720 and we've added LEX720 FW files in the rom also.
How to install:
NOTE: You have to have custom recovery installed, before any steps.
0) If you want to be safe: Backup apps/sms/etc with some app (e..g Titanium)
1) boot into marshmallow compatible TWRP (or similar) recovery
2) Backup -> swipe to backup
When coming from ANY other ROM than TS CM13:
2.1) Wipe -> Advanced Wipe -> Select system, data, cache and dalvik cache partition (Swipe to wipe)
3) install cm-13.0-xxxxxxx-UNOFFICIAL-le_zl1.zip (select from storage or via adb sideload) and must install gapps same time with the rom if you make clean install (if you need/like)
4) reboot
5) profit
NOTE: All changes in system partition are lost when you update ROM.

Followed the directions here and everything going ok for now. Restoring my apps via titanium backup.
I don't think any modem is flashed at least I haven't had any issues needing to flash the modem for band 12.
I edited "ro.product.model=LEX720" to "ro.product.model=x727" and "persist.radio.multisim.config=dsds" to "persist.radio.multisim.config=NA" but it doesn't seem to want to find the SIM card now...
Nevermind, I guess it's not intended for the X727 US version so I'll be flashing back to the old CM
the differences between cm-13.0-xxxxxxx-UNOFFICIAL-le_zl1.zip and CM13.0 for LEX720 -Team Superluminal? witch version is better?

I thought so too but when I edited build.prop for one sim it failed to find the card and said one wasn't inserted. So I'm just gonna flash the old CM build which I know works with one sim, I could keep it on the setting for two but then it takes forever to lock on and seems to lose service.

I think the x720 firmware files has something to do with it. Hopefully when you restore the firmware files are still there from x727.
EDIT: Just thought of something, maybe flash the US modem along with doing the build.prop edit will work for this ROM on x727?

Weird when I boot it flashes a signal then sim then signal within 2 seconds and I am locked in. Weird. I did not expect this x720 vs x727 to be such a huge issue.
I installed it and will try it on lex720 for some days. The chinese one has a realy bad battery. Hope this will be better
I have it running on a US 727, it works fine, doesn't have any of the chinese junk off the other app. I don't know how to check band 12, and I'm not sure it matters in my area. Also the themer works.

It have been about 2 years, I finally get a U11 plus to make TWRP device tree with working decrypt function.
Source: https://github.com/sabpprook/android_device_htc_ocm
Please download latest TWRP build in following link.
[Android 8.0]
twrp-3.3.1-0-ocm_171001.img
twrp-3.3.1-0-ocm_171201.img
twrp-3.3.1-0-ocm_180601.img
twrp-3.3.1-0-ocm_180901.img
twrp-3.3.1-0-ocm_181001.img
twrp-3.3.1-0-ocm_181101.img
[Android 9.0]
PS. watch out the last 6 digits at the filename, it must equal to your system's android patch level. e.g. 2017-12-01 (Dec, 2017) = 171201, otherwise TWRP will not decrypt data partition.
PS2. U11+ already get Android Pie update, but this update will break data decrypt function in TWRP recovery.

excellent! Please, try to put up a github repo for it, if not already
Hopefully it works fine.
If HTC rolls out kernel sources, I might try some blind development, as I don't have the device, but wanna support it.

Thanks for this however it doesn't seem to work for me.

I didn't flash since I wanted to test it out before using the fastboot boot command recommended in the original post. However this does not seem to work. I wanted to get twrp running so I could use magisk for root
Went ahead and flashed it anyway and I'm happy to report that it worked and did not brick my device. So I still don't know why it won't let me fastboot boot but at least TWRP is now installed.

Be aware that you're now lacking the ability to ota update if you cannot get ahold of a stock recovery.
That's why booting only and making a backup of stock recovery boot and full system partition, is highly recommended.

I bought the right version of the stock rom I'm running from en.pars-hamrah.com. It's a slightly sketchy looking site and it cost me 9$ but it should allow me to go back to stock easily
I'll share it here if people are interested. It's version 1.05.400.13 which is the latest version for the Hong Kong version

Looks like you're building in android 7.1 for Oreo decrypt, won't work without the needed sepolicy changes and plat/non_plat contexts, please check the current gerrit updates for the standard HTC U11:
TWRP vold_decrypt patch: https://gerrit.omnirom.org/c/26652/
EDIT2: U11 Oreo decrypt device tree changes needed for a 7.1 build: https://gerrit.twrp.me/c/2756/
If you end up with decryption successful, but it doesn't actually mount /data, then you may even need an updated kernel https://gerrit.twrp.me/c/2761/
which is what we needed. EDIT: Obviously that's a U11 kernel update not a U11+ one, so don't try to use that kernel
Some things will still get changed. I also recommend you build in real DEBUG mode, the straces have much more info than a log or dmesg. by using TW_CRYPTO_SYSTEM_VOLD_DEBUG := true

That's version 1.05.400.13. I managed to decrypt it successfully using the latest RUU Decryption Tool on Windows. I have a decrypted boot.img and system.img but I haven't yet uploaded those to my drive.
Waiting for your Good news.

You can uncrypt your phone but if you.flash a stock rom, the kernel at first boot will automatically encrypt your memory again. There are 2 different encryption, one by code and one with standard image key. At this moment the twrp will automatically uncrypt the system key but you need to manually write the code (if is setted). The tool will uncrypt both method, the flash of stock rom will re-uncrypt with system key but not with code key

Just got my Pixel 2XL the other day and am excited to root and start modding. I have been monitoring this thread just to see what issues people are running into but it looks like not many people are even doing this surprisingly. I mean that's why I bought this Google phone, so I don't have to deal with locked bootloaders that these carriers put in them to discourage rooting. I know this phone is also locked but it's not for the purpose of keeping people from rooting them. I just think that it's so odd that this thread has very little activity.

The device is very expensive, has dual partitions, has gotten a lot of bad press, and not near as Dev friendly as some others. Having said that, there are about 5 custom roms, root, exposed, substratum, and various launcher and active edge mods. So it's not like we're hurting too bad ??

So, I'm waiting for 5 mins now. It doesn't boot for now
Nice it's working, hope you continue to work on custom Roms

Thankyou!
I've been using this for a day now and I gotta admit, it's so smooth and reliable for now, nothing to argue about! I absolutely love this rom! Thanks for creating this for the S9(+) Hope we'll get more ROMs like this

Perfect thank you so much. I am glad it works. I need a screenshot of it working though to get the dev's approval. His rules not mine. So just dm me a screenshot in xda of it working please, so I can get it validated. (Screenshot of About Phone > Android Version in settings would be best)
Also a word of warning, I may be unable to create a rom for crdroid S (android 12), as I have no idea how to make rom sources. I just know how to compile roms with preexisting sources. So unless someone builds android 12 lineage os or something for the s9 and s9 plus, then the road may end here for this rom unless someone else picks it up.

@Linusrg1 I'm currently on crDroid 7.2, on the S9; can I update to 7.6 just by flashing the rom through twrp? Will that create any side effects maybe? Like losing data and such? I cba to make a backup as it's very high in size.

Thats what I did and it worked fine. If not make a data backup then start off clean.

I mean you sure it won't mess up with magisk manager and tasker? Since I'm just flashing the rom itself and not re-rooting?
EDIT: I've lost root, and it messed up with google apps, as in they were force closing. I've patched the boot.img for magisk to work again as in to re-gain root, and flashed google apps .zip, it seems ok for now. Also it seems it takes a second for the animation to pass through and to be able to enter the pin code on the lock screen after swiping, why's that?

Because you need to wipe system data cache and dalvik cache flash the rom and then flash data again.

It's all okay now, except I found the culprit to the 1-second delay for the animation to step in to enter the pin; when you set up face unlock, that bug appears. When you don't use face unlock but just pin/fingerprint combo, it doesn't have that delay when you swipe on the lock screen to enter pin.
I have the SM-960F/DS version of starlte, which I believe has the Exynos chipset, while the American version has the SnapDragon. Does anyone know if this ROM will have any issues on the SM-960F/DS or does the chipset not matter for the ROM?

well, for starters, Snapdragon models mostly can't unlock the bootloader. But yes, the exynos models with the latest bootloader (you can install dev base first and then flash this, if you're uncertain) should run this with no problem.

Sorry, I am somewhat new to the custom ROM scene. Can you explain to me how to check if I have the latest bootloader, what is the dev base and where I can get it?
I want to know any compatible custom recovery for Xperia 10 III. I tried installing TWRP but that ended up bricking my phone.
I don't know if it helps but it is an XQ-BT52.

It is sufficient for custom roms
I have a small request. Can you send me system and vendor partitions? Or at least tell me how to get it.
In LG, I could use qfil for this. In Sony I can't do that anymore
In adb I don't see vendor and system

Its fstab I extracted from /vendor/etc , its give you response how is mounted
For encryption, you can just decrypt it after installing twrp. Then you'll be able to see your sdcard no problem.
[Deprecated] Universal DM-Verity, ForceEncrypt, Disk Quota Disabler [11/2/2020]
Hi all! For the past couple of months, I've been looking into making a more universal solution to disable dm-verity and forceencrypt. Needing to take different zips, modify them for different devices, and then cross your fingers when you switch...

No, when I add qcom encryption & blobs recovery no boot...
Without encryption stuff its boot but I get 0mb internal storage
Has there been any progress on the matter yet?
It would be really great if we have the ability to flash unsigned zip files.
@ada12 can you provide me your TWRP build?
I would love to test it.
Even without working decryption it would be a huge added value
@psychofaktory what are you trying to accomplish with the recovery? There's a Magisk module (Backup, by Draco) which gives you a command line tool that dumps partition images, and you can flash them with fastboot. I've dumped the boot partition and compared the checksum with the one I flashed (the one patched by Magisk) and they're identical.
There's also a stock recovery that's very limited but allows you to do factory reset.
It would give the ability to flash unsigned zip files.
This guy has a twrp tree for 10 III. Maybe it can be built and used. Optionally, we can modify the tree from 10 II.

I have no shared in public any build because its unusable for user , twrp boot but impossible to mount internal storage , we simply cant flash gapps zip and more ... I need help from pro twrp dev for encryption but seem nobody care for this devices.
they are no sources twrp usable for lena
Would it work to disable the encryption temporarily so that the internal memory of TWRP does not have to be decrypted at all?
It would be really awesome if more developers would show interest in the device.
It's a really great device with a lot of potential.
Can anyone provide TWRP for Xperia 10 III?

What kernel are you using?
Maybe some dev from another Xperia could help you.
