Can't flash any rom - Huawei Mate 10 Questions & Answers

Hello, I have one big problem with my mate 10 lite
The problem is, when i flash twrp everything is okay, but when i try to flash any custom rom - I always have bootloop, on every custom :/
I tried to use eRecovery to install stock but it ends in the same way - bootloop
What can I do?
I really wanted to switch for custom...

Try using 338 stock rom and then install custom rom.

You can install other custom ROMs even if you are already on a custom ROM. The thing is all steps indicated
in custom ROM threads, ask you to wipe, and format so already they are cleaning necessary things, before actual
installation (flashing) step starts. But the cleaning is not like a proper clean i.e. done by stock recovery, so if you want
to install a new custom ROM, its better to first install Stock recovery, then wipe/format, then install TWRP, and proceed
with new Custom ROM installation.
If any thing does not work for you, then install ur stock ROM, and then install the new custom ROM ur interested in.

I reckon you must have missed some step, as I did tried most of the ROMs shared in this mate 10 lite
section of XDA forums. Specially the part after installation which says to flash Stock recovery n give it a wipe/format that makes the ROM installation proper, later you can install custom recovery.
For stock ROM, HuruUpdater works with TWRP, try one version of HuruUpdater, if it does not work change your
custom recovery to some other custom recovery (other TWRP, you will find many in this forum), and eventually
one of them will work for u. Still, it doesnt work, change the HuruUpdater version to an earlier version, and repeat
the process.

There is no best recovery that will work in every possible situation (e.g. Stock ROM flashing, Custom ROM flashing, backup/restore etc.). So for each custom ROM u better use the recovery that is indicated in that custom ROM thread.

Hey everybody. I just wanted to point out one issue which I faced.. Actually still facing, while shifting from one custom ROM to another.
Getting straight to the point. Few days earlier I installed this custom ROM named "MERE" abv. For "most epic ROM ever" in my canvas a116 (HD)
But now when i tried to install another custom rom "miui v.4.6.27" the ROM got installed but every time I boot, the opening screen of "mere" pops up. I have wiped data and did all the requisites from the recovery menu. And yea another thing, when trying to enter the recovery too, the opening screen of "mere" is popping out before the options "volume up for recovery. Volume down for factory" comes to fore.
I would be highly grateful if some body can suggest a way to remove the opening screen of the previous ROM. Thank you
P.s. I use cwm.

Because MIUI dont change logo.bin. You need to flash stock rom or stock deodexed rom by cmahendra. Then install Miui. I dont know how to change in running android.

It also might not have included logo.bin. But I have tried cmahendra's stock deodexed rom many times. That will surely work. Just flash that and miui after that. No data wipe needed.

Hydrogen OS on the OnePlus X

Hi There.
Before I start I would like you to know that I'm new here and have little experience with flashing.
I just got my OnePlus X and it came with Oxygen OS installed. I want to install Hydrogen OS on it because of its wonderful UI. I downloaded the ROM zip file from the official site. I copied the Zip and placed it in the downloads folder on my phone's internal storage, however when I try to install it from the stock recovery it always says that it failed. Can anyone please help.
Thanks
how can we help you if you don't explain a little bit more ? have you try to flash with custom recovery ?
what is the error message? try placing the file in the main directory. not the download folder.

First of all you should read all the threads here, for more information on flashing and custom recovery.
For flashing a custom rom on OPX:
- unlock bootloader (you're gonna lose all your data)
- flash a custom recovery (with this you can also make backups)
- flash custom rom (flash gapps if you want)
- reboot
I repait you should read everyrhing here, because you risk to damage your phone!

The error message is simply: "Install Failed". I tried placing the files in the main directory (root of the internal storage) however didn't work either.

i think you should flash it using custom recovery since you already unlock bootloader.

You need to flash custom roms with custom recoveries only.
You cannot flash them with stock recovery.
First install TWRP recovery then flash hydrogen OS

Yes Hydrogen OS is stock OS for you
But what are you trying to flash then?
the OP's phone came with OOS and wants to flash H2OS. he seems to have trouble doing that with stock recovery.
I'm done flashing for now^^

Need help in Flashing

Hello,
I just bought Redmi Note 3(Kenzo) after selling My Moto G3 Turbo. I have got permission from the MI for unlocking bootloader first day itself.
But I went through some forum link and im confused on the procedure to unlock bootloader and flash custom recovery and ROMS.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/guide-redmi-note-3-available-twrps-t3406708 Went through this and got more confused which TWRP should i Flash and all..
Could anyone please provide me the step by step procedure to unlock bootloader and flash custom roms like cm13, 14.. Please
I just use the standard TWRP for kenzo. I tried cofface and had a few issues with it being picky about the USB drive I was using. Many like using TWRP alka version since it can back up so many different things compared to the standard but the standard has worked for me in between moving MIUI 8 dev/stable, CM13, and CM 14.
I suggest zcx twrp, you can flash any ROM and backup all partitions.
Download MI UNLOCK tool once you get your permission to unlock.
Flash TWRP (Official or by dadi11) using fastboot.
Choose ROM and Flash it.
Thank You All.

Thanks for the reply.
I have got the permission and downloaded the flash tool. I am confused in flash CM 13 roms... I saw that we need to be on cm 13 or 14 firmware which is around 45-50mb.
So once i unlock the bootloader, do i need to flash anything else apart from TWRP to install custom roms or directly flash custom rom. Also can i go back to lollipop rom again from CM.

Yes, you do not need to install anything else I guess. Somehow going back to LP does not work. However, developer ROM works fine through fastboot.

is there a way to install LineageOS without using the custom recovery?

hi guys, its my 1st post here so please don't take out on me if i made a mistake.
btw it take me a while to figure out the rules of this forum about having 10 helpful post before u can actually ask something from someone.
here is my question:
i have a htc one e8 (stock marshmallow 6 installed&Ulocked) and i start to hate its launcher and its themes i needed a new look on my device, so i found this lineageOS 9 on this forum, so i installed it and as far as i know, its working fine with some miner issue(music player&NFC).
but i don't like the red warning text on splash screen, which appear the moment i root the device or install the twrp on my phone(when i restore my original marshmallow, it disappears).
now i want to know if i can install the custom rom(lineageOS) on my phone without root or twrp??
and final thing is that i made a backup from my phone, (when i did install the lineageOS 16), can i restore it without the twrp?? cuz now i'm back at my original marshmallow 6...
thx in advance.

IS there any custom ROM for the Samsung Galaxy j4 SM-j400M?

Hello! I've been trying to install a custom ROM on my SM-J400M for a while now and none worked, recently i tried installing Magisk on it and now it is in a bootloop . Is there any custom ROM compatible with my device? Or it is impossible to install a custom ROM on it? At the moment it seems like it is not even rootable...
Also the version of TWRP that i installed on my device says that it is an SM-J400F instead of a SM-J400M which is the actuall name of the model. Is that a problem? If so please tell me how to unistall it, i wasnt able to find any way to uninstal TWRP on a soft-bricked phone.
Thanks in Advance!

Is There Any Custom ROM for Samsung Galaxy J4?
YES!
Although, this is not specific Custom ROM for this device. This ROM is GSI (Generic System Image), and J4 is greatly support it! (Because it has Android Oreo out-of-box)
How to install it?
Easy, install TWRP from TwrpBuilder's Github, flash GSI Image as usual, flash magisk (if bootloop, flash this might help), and done!
Please note that this is GSI, bugs are widely open. But, as far as I use J4, the only bug I feel are Camera and MTP (fixed by using custom kernel)
Edit: For your TWRP, which version you install?

Thanks for the reply!
I recently discovered that my Samsung J4 is carrier locked so i don't think it is possible to flash a custom ROM in it...
I really tried many things since this post but in the end it would always get stuck in a boot loop and i would have to flash the official firmware in it to restore it.
What TWRP version did i use?
I honestly don't remember but it probably was a unofficial TWRP 3.2.3 or something similar, not sure if it was unofficial or not but it seemed to work...
Also, how would i go around getting a custom kernel to use on the device that would fix those problems?
Again, thanks for replying!

I use TWRP 3.2, and flashed MY builded custom kernel (Only for GSI!) https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j/development/kernel-redline-kernel-samsung-galaxy-j4-t4188199/
You need to update to Android 10 Stock then flash the A64 A/B GSI. And remember to flash dm verity disabler then flash Magisk. Magisk is important too.
For more info about this, feel free to join our telegram group : https://t.me/SamsungGalaxyJ4
In there we have detail instruction to flash GSI for J4. And other issue discussion
I can't write the steps here, because the steps is little complicated. Cheers!
Thank you for your help!
Soon i will be giving it another attempt then !
Sorry for taking so long, even the site had a upgrade!
I actually am using Linux now but i am dualbooting with Windows to be able to use Odin. I have just now entered the Telegram group,
