I am getting the LeTV LeEco Le Max 2 X829 US version soon. There are versions of TWRP/ROMs posted for the other LeTV LeEco Le Max 2 variants, so I am not 100% sure that they are compatible.
In particular for the x829 I would like:
-Link to working TWRP recovery
-Link to Proper SuperUser Zip
-AOKP based ROM (Lineage, CM...)
I found this TWRP link, but I do not know for 100% that is is compatible.

Every ROM from X820, X821, X822... work in X829 and same with the recoveries.
To get root you can flash latest SuperSU flashable zip or you can flash Magisk (with this you can run some apps that doesn't work with root).
Lineage and CM are now the same (Lineage) and they aren't based on AOKP (Android Open Kang Project), they are similar to AOSP (Android Open Source Project) but with some additions.
I hope this will help you, regards

Do you have the X829? What ROM do you have running? What version of TWRP? At the very least, is that the correct TWRP?
https://dl.twrp.me/x2/
A lot of the comments I read on the ROM threads was "should work with the X829". That's why I'm asking.
My biggest concern is bricking it, or even IMEI getting wiped. On my Elephone P8000, the stock rom has an internal IMEI writer tool. The X829 doesn't look to be as straight forward to restore IMEI. As long as I can full backup ROM/nvram, and safely store it somewhere I should be ok. Just trying to cover all my basis
Any rom will work. I have x829 and used this guide and links for twrp. Tried most of custom roms and none as as stable imo as the Indian official rom. I use nova launcher on every phone anyhow so always looks same anyhow. I get around 5 hours sot and play games quite a lot.
Finger sensor is a bit poor but if I use the fingerprint calibration it seems to be much better.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/le-max-2/how-to/protocol-backup-stock-rom-flash-stock-t3517151
I rooted 2 x829 4/64gb phones using 3.1.0 so your link is correct
For super su I used the latest version zip (2.79) download from their website http://www.supersu.com/download
For roms I ended up going back to stock us 16s because it's by far the most stable in my case atleast. Using xposed and some modules to get customizations.
I'll add that x829 folks shouldn't even bother trying other ROMS at the moment, if WiFi calling is important. I've tried a few of the most popular ones on my x820, and none of the other ROMs seem to work properly for this feature, even though it shows up as an option in some.
Root it, get rid of the LeBloat, put a different launcher on it and call it a day.

Randy, I want to follow your advise with my new x829. Not having any luck identifying how to root this phone staying on stock EUI with stock recovery. Do I need TWRP recovery for root only? I haven't touched the bootloader. Thanks much!

There's no point in staying with stock recovery. You'll never see an OTA update with the x829 ROM anyway.
Install TWRP and root with SU through that. If you ever change your mind down the road and want to install something else, at least you'll be ready for it.

Done. EUI isn't the end of the world, with a descent launcher it's not bad. I was able to flash xposed and got gravity box for better nav bar control (long press home to sleep + keep lit when screen is on) and xhangouts for dark/color themes.
Amazing phone for the $. Not just the internal specs, processor, RAM, fp sensor, gyro, etc, but a solid external build as well.

As some of you may or may not know the Chinese version of the OnePlus One ships with Color OS and not CM 11s
Here is the stock Color OS Rom from the Chinese version of the OnePlus One. Version 1.20 Build A0001_12_140521
What has been changed?
A lot of the Chinese apps have been removed (some still have the Chinese language like the Themes app)
GAPPS have been addded (Chinese phones do not have Google Play Services)
Rooted + busy box
red OnePlus splash screen
added more locale 2
This can be flashed in TWRP but it's not a standard update.zip. This is a system and boot image but it's flashed via dd commands in recovery. Just flash in TWRP as you normally would but it will take longer to flash (about 5 minutes)
perform a data wipe if coming from CM 11s
IF you want Google now to work, right after you flash and boot into android run the more locale app and select English US BEFORE setting up your Google account or opening Google Now.
THE ROM ONLY SUPPORTS ENGLISH AND CHINESE
Link: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358542179
To go back to CM 11 use the fastboot Images in my thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2765455
Disclaimer: I am not responsible if you use this and brick your device or if your device blows up, implodes, flames start shooting from it, or it kills your neighbor's dog.. It was the other guy... I swear.... Flash at your own risk

I'm confused.. The rom doesn't touch the bootloader so if you flashed it you should still have the cm bootloader. It just flashes the system and boot images. I've gone back and forth between Cm 11s and color os at least 10 times in testing without issue.

will this rom work with 64GB version?
As it doesn't touches the userdata partition, I'm assume yes

Why are you sorry? So no has the phone so I shouldn't release anything? Are you actually complaining that there is a dev going on for a device that no one has yet? Usually people complain when there is too little dev... Not when there is dev before masses have the phone...
Sent from my SM-P600 using Tapatalk
I'm glad to have a dev and a Color OS rom already
I've received mine yesterday and yeah, I'm curious for trying out ColorOS
but before I'm gonna root and flash it I have some questions
1. which languages are supported? german?
2. are there any issues with the flash process, I'm asking because you downgrade from 4.4.2 to 4.3 :/
3. can you use xposed? like gravitybox and things

1. Only English and Chinese.
2. No, no issues. Just make sure you do a full wipe
3. xposed modules work. Gravity Box is geared more for AOSP/Stock based roms. I did use GB to enable the on screen nav though that at least works.

I see, thanks for the reply!
do you use it as your daily driver or better question, do you prefer it over cm?
and another question is,
except of some things this colorOS version is the same as it is on the Find 7,right?
Do you think it is possible to extract the languages from it?
thanks!
Edit: I'm already rooted since today, thanks to your instructions in the oneplus forum
Hey guys, just got my OPO today. Was wondering if I flash this after making a backup, can I restore from my previous CM backup. I would assume so, but just checking. Thanks.

I would say you can just flash your back up, if you are on twrp or cwm.
But the One has a modified recovery and in the first post you can see, that you need fast boot and an .img to get back
However, better waiting for an answer from Mr. Hill
btw it's time to change your sig
should receive mine today sad had to pay a little xtra for it , i hope it was well worth it..will be flashing this soon i receive it, dying to try color rom i try everything but that
Does this rom support the 64gb version of the phone?

@graffixnyc Did you took the rom from the Chinese OnePlus One?
Because I found this in the "special thanks" section,
however it shows all these languages, you think it's possible to get them? I'm sure the find 7 support all these languages since there's an international version, maybe you could port it or so?
I'm just asking if it's possible, I don't understand much in porting roms and things
Edit: how did you disabled the capacitive buttons? I've enabled the navbar with gravitybox but the other buttons are still there
and not every app shows the three dots menu

Hello XDA family,
Is anyone using Cuoco92's ROM on x829? If yes:
1. Which version of Cuoco92's rom are you using?
2. Is Fingerprint Scanner working for you?
3. Is LTE working for you? If you live in the US, who is your carrier?
4. Do you have any bugs/issues on Cuoco92's rom?
My LeEco Le Max 2 x829 is scheduled to be delivered next week. I've read good reviews about Cuoco92's rom so I'm planning to flash it when I get my phone but wanted to get some feedback first.
This should be asked in the roms thread, not really a new topic.
@castuis I am in the right thread because I do not see an official rom thread for Cuoco92's rom in XDA "LeEco Le Max 2". Please correct me if I'm wrong and send me the link to Cuoco92's official rom thread so I can ask the question there.

Heyyo, can you please elaborate a little more?
Model? X820 x821 x822 or x829?
EUI ROM version? 5.8.016s? 19s? Other?
My x829 came with that vendor modified le_x2_na 5.8.016s and it was garbage with freezing issues and weak performance.
Every other ROM worked better be it EUI ROM or custom ROM.

it's the x820 model, 5.8.01S stock rom. i have never installed a custom rom before and i'm interested in installing oreo 8.1 in hope i'd get the best out of the phone, but i don't know if i want to risk it since i'm new to this stuff and i don't want to break it. the quick charge also seems to not work and it kinda charge the same with quickcharge on/off , other than this the phone is fluid and works alright

5.8.01s? That's really darn old yeah... ok since yours is x820 it's easy to upgrade to the latest EUI ROM.
http://g3.letv.cn/259/29/16/scloud-...1S-5.9.028S.zip?b=123456&platid=5&splatid=500
It does have ads that LeEco put in it though... I'd recommend going into launcher settings and disabling the ads if they annoy you a lot.
Otherwise? 5.9.026s is pretty good too but doesn't have ads.
https://goo.gl/3ZjpLD
just rename to update.zip and place in the root of your storage.
Reboot to recovery (settings > system update > ... menu button > Reboot to recovery)
Update from file
Otherwise for custom ROMs? I'd highly recommend sticking to Nougat as Oreo is beta support on the Le Max 2.... for Nougat ROMs? XenonHD I'd say has the best performance. KuranKaname did a great job with optimizations.
SlimRoms is a mix of optimizations and battery life so that's another option.
Stability wise though? OmniROM 7.1 is fantastic for that and is the only official ROM for the Le Max 2 on nougat with SafetyNet certification.
My bench mark ON RR version 6.0 that is oreo 8.1

Hey all,
I've just ordered a Le Max 2 from some mob in China. When it arrives in 2021 I hope to install a clean Oreo rom.
The problem is I'm new to all this jazz. I can follow a walkthrough successfully, and without killing the cat etc, but I don't know which walkthrough/guide to follow!
Is there a stock Oreo rom for the Le Max 2? Is 'stock' the right word here? I mean from Android/Google.
If not, is the Lineage rom ok?
I just want a clean phone, no crap installed, higher version of Android the better.
Also, I noticed a firmware page. Do I have to update my firmware first? Or after Rom installs?
thanks all

Hey. Welcome to the group.
There's no stock ROM for Oreo. We only have EUI 5.8/5.9 (Marshmallow). Lineage is okay, but as of now Oreo custom ROMs have bugs. One is low mic volume in calls, another is that you can't use Slow Motion Mode in modded GCam. In a new Oreo Custom ROM (Dirty Unicorn) it has GPS and Fingerprint bug, not sure about low mic volume but the Slow Motion Mode bug is still there (because of OSS HALs)
I suggest you flash Nougat if you want minimal bugs.
I think Marshmallow custom ROMs have no bugs at all (someone confirm) but the security patch is old.
You don't have to be on latest stock ROM, just flash the latest TWRP and start flashing ROMs.
Good luck!

Use google my friend flashing roms and learning about adb and fastboot is quite fun (well for me it is ). It's quite straight forward, you just need to have the proper software and drivers.
Lineage rom is good, it's updated quite frequently and most of the time has minimal bugs. go with nougat as my colleague suggested. Also i think it's ok to stay with just stock firmware Eui is quite nice i guys.
Just remember to backup everything and save it in a safe place before trying something for the first time If you are afraid of doing something and want a quick answer you can PM me, i will try to answer asap

What I can say from my personal experience. First, stock EUi is a crap. Also, abandoned, since LeEco company does not exist anymore. Second, 7.1 or 8.1? I would recommend Lineage 15.1 (Oreo 8.1). It's most stable for me. I found any other rom based on Lineage more buggy than stock Lineage 14.1 is stable too, but why to choose older Android?
Install procedure is pretty easy. You need to unlock bootloader, flash twrp, then flash rom + gapps, that's all.
BTW as you can see, there may be many opinions. But it's not risky to test various custom roms and choose the one that is the best for you. Don't hestitate to try many roms, it's not a pain at all. Actually, it's a fun.
Hello! I want to know how can I do to root the phone and flash a custom ROM for my LeEco Le Max 2 x829, and wich is better to use in these aspects: battery, camera improvement, fingerprint, multilanguage and avoiding WiFi disconnects when the phone goes doze (I don't know if can happen but I did in my old Gionee M3 Marathon)
My actual rom is EUI 5.8.016S (Stable)

Here the tutorial -> https://forum.xda-developers.com/le-max-2/how-to/protocol-backup-stock-rom-flash-stock-t3517151
For the things you want, battery, camera etc, YOU have to make the test on every ROM and stay on the version fits you.
