Hi, I need to restore my HTC 10 from Ressurection Remix (Pie) to stock Oreo. Do I need an S-Off to do that ? And where I can find a T-Mobile/PL RUU to flash ?

1: no you dont need s-off
2: search......
If you start with providing the correct version you need ? OS number from your download menu. And maybe read some more threads in here because the basics are in almost every help thread that covers the "back to stock" topic.
You should downgrade to Nougat.
You'll thank me later.

He "shouldn't" need to do anything. If you are referring that oreo sucks i can tell you it's not. Yes there are people complaining about it but others love it. I myself downgraded to nougat once and upgraded back to oreo within 24 hours.
So instead "pushing" users to your opinion it would be more helpful to elaborate your personal opinion.
He needs to do what he wants to do, and looking at his first post he wants to restore to stock oreo......
Cheers

You are a "nerd" obviously.
If I wanted to "push", I wouldn't use the word "should".
And It's your nerdinees which makes Oreo better. It's real obvious that Nougat is better than Oreo.
If It wasn't, people wouldn't spend their time on creating BATTERY OPTIMIZATION things on it.
I just stated the truth.
Have a nice day.

Ah so there are no battery optimization tweaks for nougat ? Well that shows your ignorance right there. Do some research and read some more as you seem to miss a lot of info. As for the nerd part, you flattered me with your kind words. Thank you very much.

Man you can be sure about my knowledge on this device.
Yes there are battery tweaks for Nougat making your battery "better"
But battery tweaks for Oreo tries to make it "close to untweaked Nougat"
Also Oreo has some random freezing problems which still exists I presume.
I'm sure that you already know all of these.
I think you don't care about stability because you don't need it. Mod edit: Cleaned from personal offences!
You are hiding beneath the "features(?)" that Oreo brought which nobody cares.
It may be faster than Nougat, or has something better than it but ...Mod edit: Don't shout at somebody
When you downgraded to Nougat, you felt bad because you need to keep ...Mod edit: Don't shout at somebody

I bought this device today.
I got it because I wanted to get into custom ROMs/Root.
Is there anything I need to know about this phone that will be helpful? Tips & Tricks?
Also I hear talk of Lineage OS vs Oxygen. Which is better and why? (Please don't be LINEAGE OF COURSE FTW, I want reasons. Couldn't find that anywhere)
Should I chose Oxygen beta 8.0, or the Lineage beta for 8.0?
Coming from an LG V10 (AT&T) where I couldn't modify it for ****, and broke after a little over a year (LG Bootloop issue)

The ROM you want to use can only be your decision based on what features you want for example if you want loads of tweaking features then I'd suggest resurrection remix and for the very latest android version then oxygen OS or lineage 8.0 both are good in their own ways you'd have to check the description to see which suits your needs , one big tip I can give you though is to always use the latest blu_spark recovery because its been modified to support a variety of ROMs and if your a flashaholic like me then always perform a nandroid backup before switching ROMs its simple advice but can save you loads of time if you don't like the ROM you've chosen and obviously before trying to unlock the bootloader via adb then enable developer options and enable OEM unlocking (some people forget) good luck and enjoy this wicked phone...

Xceeder was talking about recovery, not kernel. Since this phone is new for you, certain idiosyncrasies of this phone must be learnt. One of them is the recovery. Ofcourse official TWRP is there but it will not work with many custom ROMs. One of the best recoveries for this phone is made by bluspark who is well-known for his kernels. It is that recovery which Xceeder was talking about. I also use the same.
As regards ROMs, apart from what Xceeder stated, if you are satisfied with a smooth and battery friendly ROM, I can recommend VertexOS. But it will not have any bells or whistles. Another battery friendly and smooth ROM with some tweaks built-in is PureFusion. Both these I have used. But if you need many tweaks, go with Xceeder's recommendations. As he said, ROMs are a personal choice and what I like, you may not. So read about a few, flash a few and finalise.
Advance wishes for a happy experience.

Ah ok only reason I said kernel was because [kernel] was the first thing that came up when I typed in blu_spark.
We finally have PE treble thanks tobthe devs.
My main concern is regarding the stock kernel with new treble update. All i want to know is the best setup for the new PE rom. I am on non treble version and here i am using PE+heliox+boostv7+ubercool and the performance is unbeatable.
So i was thinking what will be the best setup for the latest treble update..?
I've tried treble kernels but kronic is still best. Wait for next update, i hope many problems would get fixed.

Shouldn't this question be asked in the PE thread it self?
Anyways, just for information, I too have this same question. Myself a big fan of the old PE, indeed it has given me the best performance so far.
Presently waiting on AiCP 13.1 and I am following the PE thread to note down who is suggesting what and known good setups.
I guess reading the thread is better idea rather expecting everyone to contribute in a seperate section. Many may not simply come to see this thread or take the extra hassle to pen down twice !!

After a month of waiting for the unlock code and wishing anal and testicular cancer on Xiaomi CEO and senior management, I'll finally (hopefully) get it in 2 days.
It's 6GB/128GB and ROM version is 9.6.11.0.OEDCNFD (Chinese ROM, bought through a friend in China who shipped it). I have many questions, and hoping on some kind strangers for help.
- Should I be worried about anti-rollback and hard-brick after unlocking, based on my ROM version?
- What's the best way to ensure I don't get hard-brick?
- I want to switch to Treble based ROM and leave miui-bs - are there any reasons to not do so or wait (like some hardware doesn't work, camera quality poor, bad battery life, no volte etc)
- What's the safest/surest guide to install TWRP, vanilla android based custom ROM, Magisk etc?
If it wasn't obvious, the Anti-Rollback, hard-bricking has me scared sh!tless, and the month long wait (after the wait for phone release, availability, and shipment) has me on edge. This might very well be my last Xiaomi phone (because of their policies), but I don't want to brick it and let all this endless wait be for nothing /rantover

Your version is not ARB. Follow my buggy vendor rom thread. Skip to twrp install, and flash 8.8.9 eu. You can also flash revolution OS if you want to try that. https://miui.revtechs.me/en/mimax3/

Not ARB, so there's no way I'd get bricked once I bootloader unlock? that's a huge relief if that's true!
Thank you kind sir for that guide, it's very helpful.
Have you tried Treble based ROMs? I know it's a personal preference over MIUI, but would you consider them stable and comparable to 8.8.9 EU?

You won't get bricked. You are most welcome. Everyone in this forum is quite helpful, and I've learned a lot from their informative posts as well.
Yes, I've tried AICP treble rom. No treble rom is ready yet for stable use because they all have the same problems that do not function correctly: auto brightness/brightness control, bluetooth media/bluetooth calls, quick charging, VoLTE, and mono speaker instead of stereo speakers.

Thank you again for the quick reply and the reassurance about not having to worry about getting bricked. I'm so glad I didn't click on the the Update button when I got the notification right after turning the phone ON haha
Ah okay, so no Treble for now. I'll wait for things to get stable. The Max in the phone's name so far has meant 'Maximum Wait'.
I'll follow your guide and install 8.8.9 EU.
From your guide I understand it's only optional, but what's the advantage of 'Changing file system from ext4 to f2fs'?

Well, f2fs is the latest/fastest file system, supposedly. Also, there are less chances of corruption/data problems? I believe that's what i read in regards to it and why people were switching over to that when they had issues with their user data; they were having to format their user data and start fresh....but don't quote me on it. I will let someone with more knowledge on this answer you and others in detail. You can leave it for now. My file system is default ext4.
If you run into any hiccups, feel free to PM me, and I'll guide you as best as I can. :highfive:

Hello there!
I'm still running the old Oreo firmware on my note 5 pro (global), but I've been having some issues and I feel its time for a reinstall.
However as far as I can see, every ROM under the sun requires the "new" (well, its not new anymore) Pie firmware, and as I understand it, that firmware brings a slight downgrade in battery life among other things, but it seems to depend upon which version is installed.
So, which version of the Pie firmware is considered the best as of now in terms of performance/battery and all that jazz.
Any advice would be very appriciated!

I've used many firmwares but 9.4.25 is best for me bcoz it shows correct battery specification while charging (4000 mAh)
Does firmware version make a noticable difference? Also, it's safe to downgrade Pie firmware?

It has newer blobs and vedors stuff. I'm using custom Q(android 10) ROM, soo I must using Q firmware for compatibility.
Besides that any ABR4 firmware is good to go.
Sorry if my English is kinda bad, but I'm a noob at installing custom roms on newer devices and I'm just curious about the risks of it and what is the best recovery and rom for this device. My only experience is with an old j5 2016 and I want to know if there's anything different in the process of installing the recovery and rom on these devices since the age gap is huge.

Nice to meet you! I have a A52 4G. I've flashed a custom OS and recovery on it so I should be able to help you. What exactly do you want to know?

There aren't too many risks as long as you know what you're doing, your warranty will be void though and you won't be able to use things like work accounts afterwards. For a Samsung device you use Odin to flash. As for a ROM, I would start with Lineage OS, as it's the most popular and most other ROMs are based on it as well. Let me know if you want more detailed answers.

If you follow the instructions then there are no risks, every device can brick if you flash the wrong files. For starters i would get instructions on how to install TWRP for your phone. From there you have the option to install GSI roms, or Custom Roms made for the A52s, currently on XDA you can find LineageOS 20 and Pixel Experience+ 13, both are Initial builds with (as the time of writing) many bugs, you can find specific details on the posts of the roms here on XDA (be sure to check the comments also, have seen some people find more bugs than initially thought)
I wanna ask if the performance and battery life is affected at all, if it it's is it better or worse. I've had this phone for a year now and I've noticed that the battery life is not amazing, will any of these roms make it better or worse?

In theory it should be better, as LOS is much lighter and doesn't have much bloatware (if any). Like I said, mine was better.
