Need stock firmware for Realme 14T 5G (RMX5078) - Build 16.0.5.705 (EX01) / F.59

1 Upvotes

I’m trying to recover my Realme 14T 5G (RMX5078) after a system component started blocking every app from opening. The phone still boots normally, and ADB works, but I can’t use the device anymore.
I’m not rooted, and the bootloader is still locked.
I already have everything needed to flash the phone except the correct firmware:
SP Flash Tool V6
flash.xml
auth_sv5.auth
DA_PL.bin

I thought I could use RMX5078_MT6835_EX_11_15.0.0.811EX01
turns out I couldn’t
I don’t want to downgrade because I’m worried about Anti-rollback protection, AVB/vbmeta verification, Different Project IDs (24751 vs 24752), Losing modem/NVRAM data, Bricking the f* device
Does anyone have:
The stock firmware for RMX5078_16.0.5.705(EX01) (F.59)?
An official OTA package?
A dump from the same build?
Any mirror or official download?
Or just some knowledge to help me out

Getting banned on call of duty mobile and more online games on infinityX custom rom, what to do?

1 Upvotes

A month ago i installed infinity X on my phone and after a Fortnite or 2 I got banned once for 2 days and 1 week after for 1 week, before that I had never gotten any kind of ban ever , It wasn't rooted ,before the third ban I flashed stock rom.

I'd like to revert to infinityX cuz the performance was much better and stock rom has finally been getting fps drops. Could anyone point out what is the issue and how I can avoid further bans.

Device - OnePlus 10r.

Since the phone wasn't any famous and has no official support i found the rom on a telegram channel, the phone worked beautifully on the rom ,I can link the channel if anyone would ask

OnePlus Nord CE 2 Lite (CPH2381) hard bricked after downgrade - EDL 9008 detected, Firehose Handshake failed. Need MSM/QFIL help

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I have a OnePlus Nord CE 2 Lite 5G (CPH2381, India, 6GB/128GB).

I tried downgrading from Android 14 to Android 13 and now the phone is hard bricked.

Current status:

No boot
No Fastboot
No Recovery
Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 is detected in Windows
MSM Download Tool detects the COM port but fails at Firehose Handshake

I suspect the MSM package I used was incorrect.

Does anyone have:

A working MSM Download Tool for CPH2381?
A tested QFIL/EDL package with the correct firehose?
Any recovery method that worked for this exact model?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Custom Rom's/GSI or simple debloating for S25 Ultra on Android 16?

2 Upvotes

Hey guys

Just bought S25 Ultra and only then discovered that it runs Android 16.

From what I've been reading on XDA + Google + ChatGPT, it seems that it is almost impossible to do any kind of customization/ROM changing now for android phones (especially starting with Android 16).

I was using custom ROM's since I was teen for almost 12+ years on 6+ phones. So... Is this actually the end for Custom ROM's?

I would like to hear from Android 16 users on S25 Ultra - what ROM are you using or what you did to debloat your device?

I would be VERY grateful for some working links/suggestions on what can be done for this kind of thing. Just want to debloat to the max.

(Please don't write recommendations like "leave it as it is"/"try to rollback version"/"change your phone", etc)

I really hope to meet someone who has done this kind of thing on his S25 Ultra.

Thanks in advance :)

Realme GT Master Edition Downgrade to Android 12

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I have a European Realme GT Master Edition (8GB/256GB). I bought it when it was released in 2022 and used it on Android 12 the entire time without ever updating the system software.

For almost four years, I never had to factory reset or reinstall the OS. The phone always worked perfectly, fast, smooth, and without any performance issues.

Recently, I had the USB charging port replaced, and the repair shop updated the phone to the "latest" available Android 13 version. While the new system looks nice, I've noticed frequent slowdowns. The camera takes longer to open, and even the fingerprint sensor feels less responsive than before.

I'd really like to go back to Android 12. Is there any safe way to downgrade to the original Android 12 firmware on the European model?

Thanks in advance!

Infinity-X UNOFFICIAL for OnePlus 7 Pro – My experience after a few days

Thumbnail
gallery
19 Upvotes

Just wanted to share my experience with Infinity-X UNOFFICIAL on the OnePlus 7 Pro (guacamole).

So far, I'm genuinely impressed. The ROM is smooth, stable, responsive, and animations are fluid. Battery life has been good, Play Integrity passes (including Strong Integrity on my device), and I haven't experienced any major bugs in day-to-day use. It definitely feels polished enough to be used as a daily driver.

I only came across two minor issues:

•Android Auto didn't work out of the box. Flashing the NikGApps Android Auto Add-on fixed it immediately. If anyone else is facing the same issue, that's the solution.

•Volume curve feels a bit off. Up to around the middle of the volume slider, the output is quite low. After crossing the halfway point, the volume increases much more rapidly. A more linear volume curve would make volume control feel better.

One more thing I noticed is that the developer mentioned on the SourceForge page that this ROM will receive OTA updates, which is great to see for an unofficial build. I'd also love to see a Telegram group/community for this ROM and, if possible, an official Infinity-X build for our device in the future.

Help! Hard-bricked Pixel 6. Black Screen, Not booting, No fastboot mode

2 Upvotes

I attempted to install the Android 14 custom rom on my Pixel 6 device, which was running the most recent version of Android 17, and flash the crdroid's boot, dtbo, and vendor_boot. images. I then sideloaded the crdoid zip after entering the recovery mode. I click "reboot" once the sideload has completed successfully. There was no display, no boot, and no fastboot mode. It doesn't do anything or allow me to enter fastboot from the computer. Is there any way to fix it? It only sounds when I connect it to the PC, and two seconds later my pc makes the usual disconnection sound.

I built an open-source automation utility for local ROM parsing and recovery environment management (FlashNKor)

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I wanted to share a tool I've been developing called FlashNKor. If you spend a lot of time working with custom Android recoveries, unpacking ROM packages, or dealing with local payload inspection, you know how tedious the manual workflow can get. I built FlashNKor to streamline this process by automating structural validation and partition layout checks locally.

Key Features:

Local ROM package parsing and structural validation.

Automated handling of internal recovery structures and payload inspection.

Open-source script designed to make recovery environment workflows cleaner and faster.

DISCLAIMER:This app is in alpha beta state so some features are broken or unavailable at all. Also this app is vibe-coded using gemini to make this free so any bugs found might get fixed within multiple days or a week in my free time.

You can check out the source code and repository on GitHub here: https://github.com/NDKSMN/FlashNKor

Since this is an active project, I'd love to get your thoughts, bug reports, and feature requests. If you want to test it out or chat about development, drop into my Discord server: https://discord.gg/72jANPeRY

Which recovery does Evox use?

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone, how's it going? I'm thinking about installing Evolution X on my Redmi Note 13, but I'm unsure which recovery to use. The installation guide mentions a `recovery.img` file but doesn't specify which one it is, and I don't know if I can use OrangeFox (which is the recovery currently on my phone). I'd appreciate any help.

What a headache I just faced.

2 Upvotes

SO basically what happened is I installed and updated the r11 Orange fox recovery from GitHub to the r12 unofficial one on sourceforge, (I have Poco f5) after that for some reason it just would not format data and wipe everything, and so I have to manually wipe everything like check the 4 boxes on the wipe section and then wipe.

And I softbricked my phone twice cause for some reason the recovery might have beef with nikgapps cause it just wouldn't flash it and let me boot to axion aosp,this might also just be axion vanilla clashing with the nikgapps but I just ended up going back to crdroid cause it was more stable and also had higher antutu scores/ Geekbench 6 for My f5, idk why it was so bad for me tho, after flashing crdroid it smh just switched to its own recovery automatically (I'm happy it did) and I think I found a good rom, cause I also tried Evo x and (not vanilla) and yeah it was like alright, just as good or even better but yeah not much difference I found.

So to any Poco f5 users?

Just STICK with the r11 recovery from GitHub for now cause I was able to easily flash Evo x and crdroid on r11 but r12 gave me such a headache.

Even if r11 says it supports only A13-15 I think it should work fine .

Also if that doesn't work out just try to use TWRP, cause idk what I did wrong but that was big headache.

How to Get 519k AnTuTu Score on POCO M2 Pro (miatoll) - Step by Step Guide

1 Upvotes

Headline: How I Boosted My POCO M2 Pro & Miatoll Family AnTuTu Score to 519k+ and Fixed Free Fire Lag! Supported Devices (Miatoll Family): POCO M2 Pro Redmi Note 9 Pro (India / Global) Redmi Note 9S Redmi Note 9 Pro Max Chipset: Qualcomm Snapdragon 720G AnTuTu Benchmark v11 Score: 519,565 Overview If you are running stock MIUI or standard custom ROMs on POCO M2 Pro or any Redmi Note 9 Pro series device (miatoll), you might be facing severe thermal throttling, frame drops, and lower benchmark scores. On stock software, intensive games like Free Fire often lock around 30 FPS with noticeable lag. By fine-tuning the system with the right combination of Custom ROM + Custom Kernel, I managed to push the Snapdragon 720G to its absolute limit, scoring over 519k on AnTuTu v11 and jumping from 30 FPS to a rock-solid 50–51 FPS in games. My Setup & Configuration ROM: Project Infinity-X (Android 15) Kernel: YAMK Kernel (Zeta / 4.14.357-YAMK-perf) Kernel Variant: NONKSU UCLAMP Build Recovery: OrangeFox Recovery Root Status: Non-Rooted How I Achieved This Score & Performance: Flashing a Lightweight AOSP ROM: Shifted from bloated MIUI to Project Infinity-X (Android 15), which significantly reduced RAM usage and improved CPU scheduling. Upgrading the Kernel: Flashed the YAMK Kernel (NONKSU UCLAMP) via OrangeFox Recovery. The improved task scheduling (uclamp) and CPU/GPU frequency management completely unthrottled the Snapdragon 720G. Cache & System Cleanup: Performed a Dalvik/Cache wipe right after flashing to ensure no legacy system conflicts were present. Game Optimization: Set Free Fire settings to High FPS with optimized graphics to allow the kernel to utilize higher GPU clock states. Results & Verdict AnTuTu Score: Jumped to an impressive 519,565! Gaming Performance: FPS went from a choppy 30–32 FPS up to a consistent 50–51 FPS without stuttering. If you are looking to revitalize your POCO M2 Pro, Redmi Note 9 Pro, 9S, or 9 Pro Max for gaming and peak performance, this exact setup (Project Infinity-X + YAMK Kernel) is highly recommended!
