My experience - CAOS R 300l+ (Android 11) Stable so far. - Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion

Hi all.
I wanted to share my experiences with you all.
I have the last couple of days run this rom as my daily driver - and I must say, that this is by far the best I have tried yet.
The rom is very fast and so far all features that I have used have worked perfect right out of the box.
I will link you to the rom and write a short guide to how I made it stable and usefull.
Hope more of you will enjoy running Android 11 (R) on your P20 Lite - Mine is ANE-LX1 hw/eu but this should run on all versions.
First som screenshots from my phone:

CAOS R 300I+ ROM - https://drivemere.com/drive/ng

NB: None of these files are created by me so please help support the creators by donating to maintain their work.

Guide:
Requirements: Unlocked phone - Guess you alle have this by now.
I started off from EMUI 9.1.0.370.
First off i installed the TWRP from bootloader to ramdisk_recovery.
fastboot flash ramdisk_recovery TWRP-oreo-smart.img
Then boot phone to recovery
(Star phone - in eRecovery choose to reset to factory default - type in "yes" and the phone will boot to TWRP.
In TWRP go to "wipe" -> advanced -> Select Dalwik Cache, Cache, Data and System. Swipe to wipe.
Now go to install -> select img -> choose CAOS image and flash to "system image" - DO NOT REBOOT SYSTEM!
Select wipe -> slide to factory reset.
Now you can boot the phone to the startup-screen.
Set up the phone and go to Play Store. Install the app named Treble Info (just search it)
Look in the app to what kind of "Treble and VNDK" used by your phone - Mine was using VNDK version 28.
This next part is a bit tricky!!
Boot to the recovery (as described above -> eRecovery -> factory default -> TWRP recovery.
Now go to mount - make sure that "system" is selected.
Go to advanced -> File Manager.
Now go to folder system -> system -> system_eks -> apex
You will most likely find som folders named (xxx=something):
xxxx.vndk.27
xxxx.vndk.28
xxxx.vndk.29
xxxx.vndk.current
Since my was using 28 I could chose to enter folder .27 and mark the blue folder in the down right corner
Choose to delete folder.
This will free up approx. 1GB system memory to install apps on the phone.
I hope you will like this rom as much as I have during the last week.
Please leave any feedback..

It has been many years, I haven't uploaded rom. I hope I succeed without any problems. thanks

Tried afternoon "caos-v300l-210117-arm64-bvZ.img.xz" ROM, I installed it like any other GSI Treble ROM - flashing extracted .img file from fastboot & factory reset.
Maybe it's an easier way...

tried this myself.. wouldn't boot.. but through TWRP there was no problem
Might be working for some to flash it directly from fastboot:
fastboot flash system "caos-image-file".img
Anyway -still need the TWRP to delete the files from system folder - som might as well use it when it's available

You can simply use root explorer (Solid Explorer etc.)

Well.. only if you root the ROM first. This one is not rooted by default. (I prefer it like this) so if you follow my guide - TWRP is the way to do it.
Yes there might be more ways to go there but I wanted to do a simple step-by-step guide easy to follow for beginners.

Is that supposed to be a joke?
caos-v300l-210110-arm64-bgZ - "Z" means that the ROM is pre-rooted with SuperUser and there's is an option turn on/off root in phone settings.
No comment...

No comment...

It's such a waste of time. Have a nice day!

Where in settings should this be? Looked all over.. can't seem to find it..
Nevermind - found it.
Forgive me - it's been 10 years since I last worked with Android ROMs.. a lot has happened since then..

This might be a weird beginner question. But in description of rom image i find the AOSP sounds were replaced with Q Google ones. But I can not find any one of them. No notification, ringtone, alarm sounds present on the phone. Why is that? Where can I find them?
I used caos-v300l-210117-arm64-bgZ-lite.img using fastboot install over stock 9.1.0.374.
Sure, I could use 3rd party apps for that, but I hate to use them.

Everything can be found in "audio"folder. Go root/system/product/media/audio , you can copy sounds to the int.storage using root explorer (e.g. Solid explorer) .

You can use a app like this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=tkstudio.sboot to change boot animation or some ROMS like jasmine rom 7.0 have the original samsung logo boot sequence, for the app to work you need root and read carefully before doing anything. Hope this helps.

Well if you mean like accessing and editing system files I'm not how to do edit them but I know that you can use a app like root explore: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.speedsoftware.explorer that's the free version the paid one is $3.99 in the US. With that you can move and add files to system folder you can edit permission of files and things of that nature.

Well system file is where all the data and software is at basically everything visible on the phone. Maybe this article could help it deals with modifying samsung rom and flashing it. If you want to read more on it here's the link: http://android.stackexchange.com/questions/85703/modifying-samsung-rom-and-flashing-it-on-a-device if you wanted to remove apps or add custom apps to your phone you would modify system file.
But what I thought was important was this;
(I did not write this thread)
< "You should be able to use an archive program on PC and recompress to .tar, .gz, and others. Dont forget to re-sign the archive. Keep a copy of your untouched ROM until you have the modified ROM tested and running.
The ROMs are signed with a signature. When repacking if they don't get signed they will fail in flashing. This link will help explain it.
So basically after downloading the firmware you have to rename it so you can extract the files, change them as you need, recompress them again and re-sign them, so you can flash them using Odin." >
This thread was dealing with modifying CM rom;
< "There are multiple solutions available:
Re-Zip the Image
Advantage: You do it once, and can use the resulting image for multiple devices. That's what I did with CM7.2 for my Milestone 2. Easy enough to do:
create a temporary (empty) folder
unzip the zip file to it
remove unwanted *.apk files from /system/apps (be careful of what you remove, of course)
zip up the directory contents again
Using a graphical ZIP manager (like WinZip or the like), steps would be even easier:
open the zip file with the archive manager
remove the unwanted .apk files
if the ZIP manager requires it, save the manipulated zip
Manually cleanup after flashing, using the shell
This is what ce4 recommended in the comments. It requires you using a terminal emulator on your device:
Flash the image as-is
remove superfluous stuff from the system partition by hand (like rm /system/big/junk/example.mp4)
Manually cleanup after flashing, using other tools
Almost the same as the previous method, but a bit more user-friendly. Disadvantage: this won't do for superflous ringtones and the like:
Flash the image as-is
Use a tool like Titanium Backup or Root Uninstaller to remove unwanted system apps" >
Edit: this link explains the signature of the file: (from google) https://code.google.com/archive/p/zip-signer/

Ok so I may have found a solution for you it requires a pc and to download a program. You'll need your rom and any apps you would like to insert into it. The program is as simple as right click and delete for any apps you want to remove. The program is made by a developer on XDA named "_Logie" here's the link to the Web page: http://m.tech.firstpost.com/news-analysis/how-to-add-or-remove-apps-from-a-custom-rom-101986.html and the link to the program is on there or here's the direct link: http://www.solidfiles.com/d/da2dd6335d/
This program compiles the ROM into a .zip if you have TWRP recovery you could do a backup of your previous rom before flashing your current one because you'll have to completely wipe every main partition before flashing new rom to ensure you don't run into problems
Edit: backup system, data, and cache because those are the ones you'll need to wipe also before wiping them just in case I would remove any password that locks your phone because if you try to flash a new rom and fails and your left with the recovery file it'll mess up the password, fingerprints will be forget and backup password will be unchangeable and will require a factory reset to be able to change it.

Hmmmmm ? I think you want to change the boot animation (white Verizon logo red background? ) if so your gonna need to either need to flash a pre-made zip with Flashfire (can't seem to get it to apply from twrp) or your gonna need to manually copy into the appropriate directory (mount system directory r/w copy then change permissions of the file you copied to 644 and reboot) presumably with a root explorer though doable from terminal

Try flashing with flasfire enabling the option mount system r/w and use common paths (probably not necessary but won't hurt) I have had difficulty getting anything other than ROM and gapps to apply from twrp but flashfire seems to work . I'm thinking its due to the fact that flashfire flashes after boot loader and then resets prior to os load.

[DEBLOAT] Wileyfox Debloater - Quickly clean your Nougat-based Wileyfox device!

Hey all!
As you all know, Wileyfox has started rolling out Nougat for their devices, starting with the codenamed marmite family (Swift 2, 2 Plus and 2X models). With this new update, Wileyfox has also included a bunch of BLOATWARE I personally NEVER expected from them. I mean, I didn't request ads in my launcher, and why do I need to forcefully use Truecaller dialer instead of the cleaner, AOSP-based one? That's why I've created this Wileyfox Debloater tool, to keep the system apps as clean and stockish as possible.
App removals included:
- AndroidPay
- BasicDreams
- BookmarkProvider
- Google Books
- Chrome
- CMFileManager
- Drive
- Duo
- Gmail
- GooglePrintRecommendationService
- GoogleTTS
- Hangouts
- Keep
- Maps
- Google Music
- News and Weather
- PhotoTable
- talkback
- Google Videos
- WFChromeCustomization
- Youtube
- Contacts
- FoxHole
- Mms
- SnapdragonGallery
- TrueCaller
- All bundled-apps from /system/vendor/bundled-app
- Possibly more in the future.
(Note: All the moved Google Apps were removed for the sole reason that they can also be downloaded from the Play Store.)
App additons / other features included:
- Google Contacts, in replacement of the half-dummy, prebundled Contacts app (which was missing link with the Dialer).
- Google Dialer, in replacement of TrueCaller.
- Google Messages, in replacement of Wileyfox Mms app.
- AOSP's Launcher3, in replacement of FoxHole (Wileyfox's Launcher).
- Framework and permission files for Google Dialer to work.
- Small tweaks in the build.prop, including drop of min processors to work from 2 to 1, and rise of maximum processors to work from 4 to 8, as well as increasing the Android compiler default amount of processors from 4 to 6.
- Possibly more in the future, too.
Warning:
Code:
Your device's system partition [B]IS NOW [COLOR="Red"]TAMPERED[/COLOR][/B]. This implies two things:
1. You WILL NOT BE ABLE TO INSTALL ANY NEWER OTAs ON IT.
(To learn how to properly upgrade your device, kindly check post [URL="https://forum.xda-developers.com/swift-2/development/debloat-wileyfox-debloater-quickly-t3587536/post72258926#post72258926"]#25[/URL])
2. Your device MAY NOT BE ABLE TO BOOT UNLESS YOU DISABLE DM-VERITY.
(And to do so, the quickest way is to [B]install[/B] [B][URL="https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445"]Magisk[/URL][/B].)
Downloads:
- For the latest Wileyfox Swift 2, Swift 2 Plus and Swift 2X firmware: Wileyfox-TOS118C-Debloater--11-05-17.zip

- For more Wileyfox devices, coming soon
Installation instructions:
1. Update your device to Nougat
2. Unlock your bootloader and flash TWRP
3. Download the latest version zip
4. Boot into TWRP, make a backup if you wish (although is highly recommended), choose Install and locate and flash the ZIP.
5. Reboot and enjoy!
6. Are you missing missed calls notifications? Is the caller ID always showed as a number instead of a contact name during phone calls? Check post #16!
Uninstall instructions:
Check post #6
Enjoy, and don't forget to leave a Thanks if you loved it!
I'm also dissapointed that the OS is far from the pure AOSP.
But it is possible to tweak it without losing the future OTAs:
1. Install google launcher, google messenger
2. Install google phone from apk mirror - this version is working on my phone - http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google...-7-0-140861421-nonnexus-android-apk-download/
3. Deactivate truecaller, duo, news, ... - but be careful, some apps are needed for the system and remember to activate all apps before the OTA update...

That is also a possibility but:
1. Launcher3 conflicts with the already installed launcher, so it's impossible to get that out of the way
2. I got latest version working here using the required libraries (extracted from a Pixel), so yeah, probably both possibilities are just fine
And for the third one, just wanted to say there's no need to reactivate them (if you manage to deactivate them, ofc), and, all of the packages the script moves are stored in a safe place (/system/__bloat), so they can be restored from there
I don't remember if I had a problem with a previous OTA update for Wileyfox, but I was not able to install an update without reactivation a disabled app.
I'm not sure...
You could select a default launcher and the phone has really enough RAM, so I think it is not necessary to remove the FoxHole from the system.
But anyway, nice work! You could provide an uninstall instructions - if it is really possible. I hope that there can be an OTA update in the future...
The final solution for this is LineageOS, if they provide the source
Excellent! Thanks for providing this...such a stupid shame that Wileyfox decided to do this. I'm just hoping that they now release their sources so that we can start working on a proper release of Lineage!

Of course. The debloater doesn't delete any of your system apps, but move them to /system/__bloat. There you'll find 3 folders, the app, the priv-app and the vendor one, just cut and paste them back to /system and the deleted apps will come back. Also, don't forget to remove the framework files and permissions the debloater installs, such as /system/framework/com.google.android.dialer.support.jar and /system/etc/permissions/com.google.android.dialer.support.xml. You can also remove the the GoogleContacts, GoogleDialer, GoogleMessages and Launcher3 folders from /system/priv-app, and revert the build.prop tweaks (lines 164 and 165, change values from 1 and 8 to 2 and 4, line 196, change value from 6 to 4).
Reverting all of that, your system will go back as it came with the Nougat OTA.
Hello,
thanks for your effort to the community.
I have a question.
How do I install this? I've tried it with twrp but everytime I install twrp my device won't boot.
To repair this I flashed the newest "system.img".
But I can't replace my stock recovery.

Try downloading version 3.0.2-0 from TWRP download website, and flash it via the command
Code:
fastboot flash recovery <name-of-the-file>.IMG
Replacing name of the file for the actual filename of it. To enter fastboot mode, you should see a warning when you boot up your device. Hit any volume keys, and, using them, choose the fastboot mode and select it with the power key. Now you should be able to use the fastboot commands.

I'm already working on it... But it'll surely require substratum, which probably won't work out of the box just by flashing it from the recovery. I'm looking for solutions

Replacing name of the file for the actual filename of it. To enter fastboot mode, you should see a warning when you boot up your device. Hit any volume keys, and, using them, choose the fastboot mode and select it with the power key. Now you should be able to use the fastboot commands.
I'm already working on it... But it'll surely require substratum, which probably won't work out of the box just by flashing it from the recovery. I'm looking for solutions

Okay, can you try doing "fastboot boot" and the name of the image instead of flashing it? It will avoid bootloops, since it just boots to the image. Keep me posted, please.

Still doesnt let me boot up after I installed your debloat zip.
Everytime I install or boot to twrp 3.1.0 or 3.0.2 for marmite i get a boot loop and a "dm-verity .." screen.
I've tried different versions of twrp and different methods like "fastboot flash" and "fastboot boot" but everytime I flash something it gets stuck on booting up.
When I was on Marshmello I had this "dm-verity" message too but I could modify my system as I wanted and it booted up everytime, i had TWRP, your Speakermod, Magisk Mask etc installed no problem.
I think it has something todo with the update to Nougat.
How did you bring it run on your device?

Thanks, i've installed magisk mask again and the message didn't appeared.
I've also flashed your debloater and everything works fine.
Can I now flash TWRP or do I have to boot it up via fastboot everytime?

Try flashing it to your recovery partition, my guess is that now that DM-verity is disabled everything should work fine
Cheers!
Quick update post after two days of usage, yesterday I noticed I didn't receive any notifications on missed calls, and that the caller ID always showed as a number although I had it added as a contact.
I realised that I didn't have any "Phone" app chosen as default in Android settings, so I was missing those notifications until I opened the Google Dialer app.
In case it happens to you, to sort it out go into Settings > Apps, then hit the gear in the top right corner and make sure you've a config similar to this one (Launcher3, Google's "Phone" and Google's "Messages" chosen as default Home, Phone and Messaging apps).
I hope this is clear for everyone, since it's not something I can fix on my side/requires the user to do the change
I have TWRP, SuperSU, and Magisk. Marshmallow boots with no problem, but I get the dm-verity screen on boot with the message "dm-verity is not started in enforcing mode".
Does this mean dm-verity is disabled because it is not enforcing, or do I need to do something to stop the whole dm-verity screen appearing before I can successfully upgrade, debloater, and boot Nougat?

Firsts things first: After heavily modding the system like you did on Marshmallow, make sure not to update your device through the regular OTA but using a recovery image like the ones posted in this device's forum.
For magisk: are you sure you flashed it correctly? Magisk disables that dmverity message you are mentioning, so maybe you installed an old version or wasn't properly flashed.
My advice is: download everything: the recovery image, the debloater and Magisk. Boot into TWRP, wipe EVERYTHING if possible, including Data cache dalvik cache and system partitions. Once done, flash the recovery image zip, and right after that, without rebooting, flash the debloater and magisk. Reboot and everything should work perfectly
If I use this to debloat my WileyFox does it mean I won't be able to use Android Pay?

As soon as you root any Marshmallow/Nougat phone Android Pay will not work, according to this article
I have never used Android Pay so it doesn't make any difference to me. My phone is much better now that I have debloated it. I also installed Evie Launcher and Halo Browser, both small minimalist apps and everything is really smooth.
Instead of a Debloater, could the Stock ROM not be debloated and rezipped as a custom 'Lite' version?

New Rom with May security patch
Selinux doesn't work but o well never really care about whether it is enforced or disabled much anyway I did once manage to get selinux working through prop edits... or once using an app but fingerprint stopped working
Most other things seems to be working fine which is great
Official crdroid for Marmite has same issue but it is older version
Sometimes the torch stop working reboot fixes it and restarting system ui crashes the entire os repeatedly so this requires a reboot using the actual buttons
This is probably the best Android 9 rom for the swift 2 so much cool functionality and it would be sik to use a stable crdroid 6 Marmite rom

READ EVERYTHING FIRST NOT IN CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER Assuming you're on marmite you will have to go to XDA and go on Wileyfox Swift 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Development then click on lineage 15.1 rom download TWRP 3.2.3 from the link near to it this TWRP is the best one coz it can read the internal storage official TWRP is 3.3.1 but doesn't support internal storage so its not good once you have done that go to magisk.me and then download the magisk 20.4 flashabke zip file. Then next part is annoyimg. You will need a pc there is an app on the phone but i have never tested it and you probably not gonna have 2 phones in he first place maybe a tablet but anyway you will have download minimal adb and fastboot from any site that you think is appropriate your phones drivers should automatically install unless you have a bad os or something if they don't you will need to look into how to find your phones driver with research but you may not find them even after doing that anyway so assuming you have minimal adb and fastboot running and your phone s drivers are installed to confirm whether it has worked type in adb devices and press enter your device should come up as connected also I forgot to mention you need to on to about phone on settings system on build number a few times to unlock developer options the go to settings system developer options Enable Android debugging back to before once you have typed in adb devices a popup may come in your phone press yes allow in future option if you trust the device you're using once you press yes your device is usable you need to enable USB mass storage and copy twrp to your computer now for Windows 10 as I've only done this on windows 10 press on start and locate minimal adb and fastboot right click on it and press open file location if it comes up with the shortcut which I'm guessing it has right click on minimal adb shortcut and then open file location you will need to copy the TWRP file to there and rename the TWRP IMG to twrp.img go back to minimal adb and fastboot and also put your phone in fastboot mode now I think as soon as you turn your phone off it should go to fastboot mode if not then search how to do it coz I can't be asked writing every detail. Your phone will be factory data reset in the process this is for data security we'll come back to that later you may lose your warranty but that's not a problem if you know how to take care of your phone now on minimal and and fastboot type in fastboot oem unlock you should backup your data first go on settings system backup assuming you have Google services and play installed which I'm pretty sure you do all your data will be backed up and restored once you restore from cloud on the setup process after resetting coz of unlocked bootloader. Once you have accepted the bootloader unlock and it has been successfully unlocked turn if the device plug it in computer and type in on minimal
ADB and fastboot type in fastboot flash recovery
twrp.img now if you copied the files
In the correct directory as described before the recovery should have installed in a few seconds one problem is at the start the recovery might be getting replaced by stock recovery but after entering it a few times using power button and volume down button simultaneously should take you to the recovery you are going to see a message on your phone saying bootloader unlocked blah blah blah wait a few seconds or press power button and you will be in the recovery now your device may be encrypted type in your phone password/pin and you will be able to read internal storage press on select storage internal storage and press on download folder and then press on the magisk file you downloaded the swipe to install and you are installing root using magisk you should keep your device encrypted for security purposes now that you have twrp it can be used to bypass your screen unlock unless you have encrypted your device my marmite device encrypted the device automatically on the stock operating system another thing is that if you want to use your banking app go onto settings hide magisk manager option press ok and then the name of the magisk manager app should now be manager also go back to the settings and snake magisk hide option then restart the app and then go to the menu icon and magisk hide and then press in the app you want access to it should now be ticked and root should be hidden from the app my guide isn't perfectly layed but should have the important information you need know was writing it from the top of my head without punctuation:good:

After rooting tablet and lenovo release update, " boot.img" must be change back to install OTA Update from lenovo .
Now it seams this OS will be stable on Lenovo YT_X705F SMART TAB.
But still probs on running differnt APPS on this doomed crap tablet, for this issue i'm looking on LineageOS

If you are on the same firmware S001135 then just use the boot.img I posted above. It should work. Also It would be better to disable system updates. I am creating a seperate post for running GSI of LineageOS and other ROMS.

Everything you do, you do at your own risk. I'm not responsible for all damages, this can also lead to loss of warranty.
Hi,
Probably many of you know how to do a Magisk install without TWRP, but this guide is for people who don't know and don't want to mess things up.
I will try to show you step by step how to do it.
Many thanks to:
kdrag0n
topjohnwu
Leave them a nice feedback
!!! Before we start make sure your device is unlocked, if you don't know how to do it below is link to official Xiaomi guide !!!
https://c.mi.com/thread-2262302-1-0.html
Requirement
Xiaomi Mi Flash ver. =>3-14-0 - Needed to install all adb drivers Download
ADB & Fastboot tools - Could be the one built into Mi Flash tool I'll use this to make it simple
Magisk =>24.2 - This software is base of our rooting process Download
SafetyNet Fix => 2.2.1 (Zygisk) - Needed to backdoor SafetyNet fail check, at the moment it is only working method for Mi Pad 5 Download Make sure you download the Zygisk version!
Boot.img - You can download from official MIUI website full flashable rom and separate boot.img file from there, or use my if your Miui version is China 13.0.5, EEA 13.0.3, Global 13.0.1
China 13.0.5​EEA 13.0.3​Global 13.0.1​​​Installation
To make it easier, Green color mean what you need to do on Tablet, Orange on PC
Unzip Mi Flash tool
Open folder and run XiaoMiFlash.exe, if window "Driver" won't pop-up click on the Driver tab and then "Install" button and close all windows.
Connect your tablet to computer, when your tablet ask how you want use USB, choose File Transfer/Android Auto
Copy to internal storage Magisk-v****.apk, safetynet-fix-v****.zip and boot.img
Open File Manager on your tablet find a folder where you copied all files, and install Magisk
Open Magisk app, and click on Install in section Magisk, then select "Select and Path a File", after that find your boot.img file and click on it
Click "LET'S GO" button on the right side and wait until process will be finished
On your computer in the tablet's storage window, go to the file specified in the application probably /Download/magisk_patched-*****
Copy this file to a subfolder of Mi Flash on your computer, exactly to MiFlash2020-3-14-0\Source\ThirdParty\Google\Android and change the name of this file to boot.img
Open PowerShell/Windows Terminal in this folder (Hold Shift + Right click -> Open PowerShell window here)
Make sure your tablet have enabled USB debugging in Developer options Setting -> Additional settings -> Developer options -> USB debugging
Turn off your tablet, then hold down Power and VOL- until the screen lights up, then release power button, if Fastboot appears, everything went fine
Go back to your Terminal window and type to check if your computer see your tablet
Code:
./fastboot.exe devices
If you see answer "******** fastboot" it mean there is communication between PC and Tablet
Next type this command to flash patched boot image
Code:
./fastboot.exe flash boot boot.img
Next type this command to reboot your device
Code:
./fastboot.exe reboot
Restart can take a longer time than normal
Open Magisk app and check status of Magisk, if you see for exaple "Installed 24.2 (24200)" everything went fine
Open Settings in right corner of app and in section App click on Hide the Magisk app then type name for hidden app, it will ask to install new app so do it
Open again Magisk app and open Settings in section Magisk enable Zygisk (Beta) and Enforce DenyList
Click on Configure DenyList than click on three dots in right corner and uncheck Show system apps
Search for all the apps in the list below and check them. It is important to click on their name to see all modules, once you have done this click on the box to activate all of them
Code:
Google
Google Assistant (I have two)
Google Pay
Google Play services
Google Play Store
After that reboot your tablet, and open again Magisk app
On the bottom click on Modules
Click on Install from storage button and find file safetynet-fix-v*******.zip, than click on it
After that reboot your device one more time
After reboot open Android Settings go to Apps and Unhide system services than find and clear all data of Google Play services and Google Play Store
Reboot tablet last time
If you have reached this point it means that everything has gone correctly, probably for about 3 hours you will still not be able to install Netflix and some banking applications but after this time everything will be back to normal, this is because Google's servers have detected that Magisk has been installed but that the application has been changed and Zygisk has been enabled so at the next check it notices that everything is Ok and gives access back.
Quick explaination what happend here:
Magisk has been installed and device is Rooted
The application has been changed and hidden
Zygisk has been activated and hidden from Google services
SafetyNet-fix was installed, which restores the functionality of SafetyNet and Widevine L1, which is blocked after the installation of Magisk and unlocked Bootloader
Hello,
(I use google translate).
Thanks for your method. Before using it, I would like to ask you a few questions.
I have already rooted a few devices (mipad 1, mi phone, htc...) with my macbook and twrp.
The adb files are already installed on my mac.
1) once the pad 5 is rooted, should I, like on my phone, patch the new boot.img file with each update?
2) Could I install the twrp application afterwards to be able to do a complete backup of the system and possibly install a version of lineageos later?
3) Is there a version of miflash unlock tool for mac os x?
4) Should I register or register on the xioami site before unlocking the boot?
Thank you in advance for your method and your answers.

4) Should I register or register on the xioami site before unlocking the boot?
Thank you in advance for your method and your answers.

Hi Nux01,
1. Unfortunately yes, TWRP isn't supported for Pad 5 yet.
2. It won't work, TWRP app is only making a request to TWRP custom recovery, until it doesn't exist you can't even install custom ROM
3. It is, but i didn't test it yet on Pad 5, and I don't know if it will work with new decides because last release is from 20.07.2020.
https://github.com/francescotescari/XiaoMiToolV2/releases
4. Yes, you need Xiaomi account, also your device has to be logged in, and registered to unlock, Xiaomi made complete guide how to do this, link is on the top of this post.
Hello,
Thank you for your quick reply.
The latest version of Mitool does not work. On the other hand, with regard to version 20.7.21, it's OK.
What does it mean: "I do not know if it will work with new decides".
And to unlock the bootloader, I have to use the Xiaomitool V2 application?
Thanks again.

I mean it's quite old release so it may not work with current unlock bootloader process on new devices like a Xiaomi 12, Xiaomi Pad 5 etc. I can't promise it won't brick your device, only confirmed method is by official Xiaomi tool.
Thank you
I'll wait a little bit before rooting my tablet.
Have a nice day.
Followed the instruction, worked like a charm. Although I had unknown "chinese sings" errors with the driver install it worked. By the way there is a newer version of the flashing tool.
Thanks for the effort of writing this down!
Hello,
I just managed to unlock the bootloader of my tablet "Pad 5".
I tried under Mac and Linux with Xiaomitool V2 without success (error 20036 and 20045).
I also tried with VirtualBox who did not recognize the tablet.
I succeeded with VMware and Windows 7 by testing different drivers and it worked.
I just root the tablet with Magisk.
On the other hand, is there the equivalent of TWRP to make a complete system backup. Apart from Titanium and MyBackup.
Thanks for your help.
thanks dude.
didn't try this yet, just wondering.
can't i just flash recovery and then flash magisk.apk?
thanks

You can update, but after that you need root again but with boot.img from 13.0.2
How to get the boot.img 13.0.2? I checked the 3GB Firmware and only found vendor_boot.img. Is it the same thing?
Never mind. I got the boot.img from here: https://miuirom.org/tablets/xiaomi-pad-5

Hey there.
I have done everything above and i MIGHT have some problem. The problem with my problem is that its not really reproducable easily even for me.... Weird, I know!
Lets go into details:
Issue description: When I reboot my tablet it goes into "MIUI Recovery" window, on which I am offered to reboot the device or clean.... And when I reboot it goes back to the recovery screen again. Like a loop-hole.
....
But then if I leave it untouched for several minutes it reboots itself and launches the system properly finally...
When did it start: It first started after I performed this step:
24. Click on Install from storage button and find file safetynet-fix-v*******.zip, than click on it
25. After that reboot your device one more time
Click to expand...

When I finally landed in the system I of course continued and performed further steps. After another reboot in step 27 the same thing happened but much, much longer.
I thought it somehow self fixed and works - once I am in the system. Right? So I did a reboot to test it. And no... recovery screen again for another 20 or so minutes until finally MIUI loaded fully.
Now I am afraid to turn off / reboot my tablet... I am afraid it might never finish booting next time.
Any ideas whats wrong and how to fix this weird and irregular behaviour?
My details:
Device: Xiaomi Pad 5 6/256gb
Original system was Chinese. I have reinstalled to Global one a version ago.
MIUI version currently running: 13.0.3(RKXMIXM)
Android version: 11 RKQ1.200826.002
Magisk version: 25.1 (25100) (32)
Magisk Modules: Universal SafetyNet Fix v2.2.1 (yes I made sure to download around Zygisk section)
Anything else I shall provide?

I also have this module installed without problems, as there is no recovey for Pad5, it is a good idea to install in magisk the module Magisk Bootloop Protector, which serves exactly to prevent what you are afraid that happen with your tablet
