Alright, so following some prodding, searching, and questioning, I flashed MIUI V6 to my BLU Vivo Air alongside TWRP.
I will update this post with a detailed, step-by-step guide including my own personal mirrors for your convenience and those of you without 4PDA accounts, which is the Russian equivalent of XDA.
Upon booting, I noticed apps force closing without being launched. Namely Hangouts and Newsstand. I'm sure reinstalling them will resolve the issue rather quickly.
Stay tuned for updates.
Update 1:
TWRP had difficulty mounting data and cache for me, and was unable to format them. This led to applications force closing, window mishaps, and accounts glitching out. I just flashed Carliv recovery, and flashed MIUI with it. Flashing gapps at the moment, and will update you on my progress.
Update 2:
Currently attempting to format data (success), cache (success), and dalvik (success).
Update 3:
Rebooting into MIUI V6, checking if I've entered a bootloop.
5 seconds - Boot animation reached, "MIUI Pro."
165 seconds - Still booting.
180 seconds - Setup screen reached, MIUI V6 flashed successfully.
Update 4:
Google apps flashed successfully, no redraws or force closes this time. Had an issue with the keyboard not registering as being selected, Google voice typing appeared as the default. Pull down notification shader and "choose input method" to select MIUI Smart Keyboard. Signed into Google successfully. Will run preliminary tests on video playback, camera, and multitasking.
Guide:
If you mess up your phone, it is on you, and I am not to be held liable for your actions. This is your responsibility. A lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on mine. With that out of the way, if you encounter troubles, I am more than happy to help you.
Step 1:
Root your phone using one of the links provided. Click HERE for method 1, or HERE for method 2. I personally used method 1 because it was the first I saw. They both get the job done.
Step 2:
Install THIS application (Settings -> Security -> Unknown Sources), and install a recovery. I installed Carliv recovery, and had no problems with it. You can also install TWRP, however, it had issues mounting data and cache. This left it unable to factory reset when I flashed MIUI, which subsequently led to problems. I do not recommend flashing TWRP - You have been warned. Carliv recovery says it can't "mount" cache, although when formatting it does so without a problem. I believe Carliv is supposed to be touch-based, although the touches weren't responding for me. The controls are as follows: Volume +/- for navigating, Power for selecting, and the Back key for, you guessed it, going back.
Step 3:
Install MIUI V6, located HERE, and then install Google Apps, located HERE. After installing, factory reset the device from recovery and reboot into the system. I posted my timestamps at the top of the post, so you can get an idea of how long your flash/boot process should take.
Step 4:
Basic setup. Be ready to fix your keyboard if you had the same issue I did, which isn't even necessarily a problem. Choose WLAN network and sign into your accounts, then you're good to go.
To root the ROM, I recommend finding "iRoot" for your computer. Then boot to recovery and install the SuperSU zip, as it's better than the root app which comes with the iRoot method.
Enjoy your ROM, and be sure to thank our Ruski comrades over at 4PDA!
Special thanks to @DvDwx. (research), @itsJohnuno (answers), and @Milly7 (testing).
All download links are being hosted by me, and I recommend creating mirrors of your own as safety precautions in the event that the files are removed or become unavailable.
Have a phenomenal day or night, possibly even both. If you have any questions, I'll do my best to answer them.
Nice Guide ;D

I didn't create the resources in the ROM, I just made a guide to flashing ROMs using a specific ROM as an example. I would feel bad posting it in the developer section because I don't wish to be given credit for the ROM. I didn't make it.

on my WonderMedia WM8880 Tablet project i share the projects from other developers... but i asked they to have permission to share that, and leave on post the credits with their names... maybe if you talk with developer on 4PDA for permission to do it or ask him if it is possible he share he ROM Project here is will be perfect... anyway Good Guide to Flash this ROM :highfive:

I do have root with Kingroot. So I just need to keep trying until it successfully flashes?
Edit: The app mlp RIO recovery installer constantly freezes on me not allowing me to flash any of the recoveries.

You can also try iRoot. Install SuperSU and try using it as the root granter for the recoveries.

Yeah. I've also noticed that downloading updates is botched, because it downloads an update for a different phone model. If you try to install it the installation will fail, but it won't hurt your phone.
All in all it's a pretty solid ROM for me.

I'll post some tomorrow. Re-read the past 5-6 posts and you'll see the bugs. I think you'll like it. MIUI is certainly different (settings default apps) and such, but it's a formidable ROM and performs relatively well.

on Captcha you need count the numbers and ignore the russian Letters Like for exemple -> ##22###16## -> 22+16= 38

Our Buddy @SSJGohon found the kernel source code and already shared on some topic(i Already re-shared that on Cyanogen Mod to Mediatek SoC's Development thread... but anyone there say nothing about it... and already shared on 4PDA to maybe the MiUi developer can Bring something to All...). i already downloaded and already start my research about what can be maked with that and for sure have a possibility to we have a custom Kernel and maybe Custom ROM like PURE AOSP, AOSPA... but Cyanogen Mod is more difficult because we don't have a updated Repo Source from MediaTek to work like Driver Blobs to GPU, Bluetooth, Wifi Drivers... etc
My real problem is i don't have all skills to make a custom kernel to Mediatek SoC because a lot of things change from Qualcomm to Mediatek.. but if anyone here want to try development that just search the topics with @SSJGohon comments replays :highfive:

I've already installed the ROM, it runs smoothly! You were right, I really like it! I had an issue trying to format /data, it took like 15 minutes, and did a hard reset (pressed power button for a few seconds) and tried to format again and it worked. Im a little bit worry cause I've had 2 radom reboots so far.. Any idea of what has happened to me?
Did anyone try this thread. The developer @ahrion has provided several ports of dolby atmos from several devices.
The thread is located at
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/soundmod-axon-7-dolby-atmos-t3412342
Here in particular the axon 7 version of dolby atmos provides realistic 3D sound using both hardware and software, whereas other version use only software. Has anyone installed axon 7 version? It seems that most of the devices are supporting axon 7 version Of DA, except land. Please just try and tell me. If possible any dev can find fix for this on our device. Please try...
Only Lenovo A7000 works on our device as far as I know. When I tried others they either crashed or caused bootloop.

To set selinux permissive,
1)Root your phone.
2) Download and install terminal emulator app.
3) Provide root access to terminal emulator.
4)Type the below commands one after the other. Once done, reboot your device.

Thanks! I just used a flashable zip, seemed easier and yeah, it works now.
I guess LePro version is the way to go?

This is a TWRP 3.2.3 build based on Android 7.1.2 source kernel for the Galaxy Tab Active 2 (codename: gtactive2lte) - Exynos. The "tar" file should be installed using Odin (tested on Odin 3.12.3).
Special Notes:
1. DON'T FORGET TO ENABLE "OEM UNLOCK" (located in Developers options, if its not there, you may have to wait for a few days to access that option, some users claim that its within 10 days before this option appears).
2. KNOX will be tripped once you flashed custom binaries to your phone.
3. Samsung Firmware OTA (aka System Updates) will no longer work once you flashed custom binaries.
(You can flash custom ROMs if you want to keep the OS up-to-date.)
4. It is HIGHLY UNRECOMMENDED to purchase any access to any kind of private forums, ROMs or Kernels.(DO NOT GET FOOLED.)
Installation process:
1. Flash Stock ROM.
2. Flash recovery using Odin (AP = recovery.tar).
3. Load recovery immediately after flashing.
4. Format data (Will erase /data partition).
5. Reboot to recovery.
6. ADB push SuperSU to internal storage / insert SD-Card with SuperSU.zip.
7. Flash SuperSU using TWRP install option.
8. Reboot to system (May bootloop several times. Wait untill system loads).
Bugs:
1. ADB sometimes doesn't work in MTP mode. Need to manually change to PTP in order to get adb usage.
2. Bad label in ADB shell + bad characters appearing while writing through AD. Works well out of recovery and on recovery's terminal.

Many thanks to TWRP's developers for the support on building this recovery.
Special thanks to CaptainThrowback, Bigbiff and Dees_Troy on TWRP-freenode and Ashyx on xda-developers.
Please post any bugs you encounter. I will try to fix any issues that come up.
Thanks for the work and sharing. I'm excited to try. Having root would be great, but I'd also like to be able to make voice calls ( using bluetooth as the built-in speaker & microphone aren't adequate ). Do you think this is possible. What changes, if any, are required to have work with T397 Tab Active 2 ( US variant ) ? I'm sure that it's mobile frequencies are different than what the euro-spec'd T395, but otherwise I think identical.

Well, Samsung has a nice repo of their source kernels for every phone Samsung sources
I guess we just have to validate some data taken from boot.img from the stock rom and then build the same with the appropriate source kernel.

Had no idea the source was available for these devices, thanks for sharing. T397 source is in the repository. Let me know if there is something that I can do to assist. I've not compiled these sources although I've compiled other things. Possible to use this tablet as a phone with this ROM as stock T397 ( even after installing several different dialers does not dial ) ?

I can't check the dialer thing, as I don't even have cellular network on my Tablet.
I'll try to build the recovery for the T397 later today, but you will have to check it I guess, as I have no access to that one.

Ok, so this is a first try, so I believe it's not going to work, but who knows? we may get lucky.
Recovery for SM-T397 - Android 7.1.2
If it doesn't get installed or leads to a bootloop, I'm gonna need you to pull the boot.img from your device, or send me a link of the stock ROM if it's available.
Please follow the intsallation process described on the README file on the github repository

Thank you! Successfully installed. I found this video helpful for this generation of Samsung device and learning how to navigate recovery and download modes. I disabled auto-reboot in ODIN per your instructions, but it wasn't clear to me how to power-off after download so as to be able to go into recovery without booting so after adequate time I just pulled the battery. I'll spend the evening playing with things and report back, but so far everything seems to be working

One thing I notice, 7.1.1 is what was/is installed on my tablet now. Not sure what version of Android available on Samsung Opensource or how to check it, but I suspect it is the same since nothing has been pushed OTA.
7.1.1 is what The T397U should have already been on before you started. Mine is and I have not installed this recovery as of yet. Just wanted to let you know it's where it should be.

Awesome. I really had my doubts being it the first build and all. I guess, there aren't really any major differences.
If it's possible, can you go through the TWRP checklist here
Some of the tests aren't really necessary, but it's a good checklist to go by anyway.
That way, I can officially add it to the OP.

Sorry for delay. I've done the following tests all with the expected results. The only thing I noticed compared to previous installations of TWRP that I've performed ( some years ago ) is that the load time of recovery seems long at 1:15. Also a message about "RECOVERY NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING" which I suspect is normal. Tablet has been working without incident. Thanks again.
Blocking checks
- Correct screen/recovery size
- Working Touch, screen
- Backup to internal/microSD
- Restore from internal/microSD
- reboot to system
-ADB ( yes, if this means being able to access from ADB while in recovery )
Medium checks
- Screen goes off (and on )
- F2FS/EXT4 Support, exFAT/NTFS where supported
- all important partitions listed in mount/backup lists
===> define important ? - depends on the device, i guess
= Assume we can still boot a recovery (aboot/lk is still there for fastboot), can restore everything left ?
- backup/restore to/from external (USB-OTG) storage
- Correct date
Minor checks
- MTP export
- reboot to bootloader
- reboot to recovery
- poweroff
- battery level
- USB mass storage export
- set brightness
- vibrate
Security Policy Updates should not be applied to this system ?
Since this is stock Samsung OS that is rooted I'm guessing this system is still SELinux "enforcing" so does this mean that I can/should say yes to Security Enhancements automatic updates from Samsung ? Any explanation or link on this matter appreciated.

Hey, sorry for the very late answer.
I'm currently not working on Android and I've never tried on OREO, so my politically correct answer would be: "Right now there is no plan to work the same magic on OREO, but whoever wants, can try to use the device tree I created with a new official OREO kernel (didn't know they have one already)".
Anyway, keep checking the forum from time to time, I may have found the time to work on it
Links to the device tree and other tools used are in the main page of this thread.

I Pay 100$ for making my Galaxy Tab Active 2 booting when its charging
Hey guys,
i hope somebody can help me.
Im trying since 2 Weeks to make my Galaxy Tab Active 2 booting when its charging.
I try all the ways i found (fastboot, LPM change and Autoboot App) and nothing was successful.
So i hope to find with this way somebody who would help me to get the feature.
I need it because i installed the Active 2 on my Harley Davidson as my navigation.
And the problem is that i make a Novalauncher thats looking like the original Harley Davidson one and starts without a code.
So when i put the Tablet in the Mask i dont get a method to press to power button and when i make a method (hole trough the mask or something) then everybody can start up my tablet and use it.
So if somebody can help me with that i will pay them 100$ for helping!
you can contact me at [email protected].
thanks alot

Hi everyone, how can I completely remove the root of Kingroot? I just bought a Nexus 4 from the second-hand market, but it has been rooted by Kingroot, but I tested it with a Root Checker, and it showed "sorry! root access is not properly installed on this device", what should I do now? I am planning to flash a new rom for it, can I root it again? Please give your advice, thank you very much!
pls forgive my poor English!

Yes brother, I'll go to eat first, talk next time and ask you if I don't understand
Hey bro, I also want to ask, when I use Project Treble to detect, it shows "your device does not support Project Treble" and "your device does not support Seamless System Updates and is detected to have an A only system partition", then how to deal with this situation?

You cannot flash a Generic System Image (GSI), but you can definitely install any custom roms for your device.

Okay, thank you bro, because I just started to touch the flashing,, in order not to become a brick, I will try it after I fully understand the tutorial, anyway, I am very grateful for your help
Hello brother, I have seen the Divest OS that you introduced last time, but I still don’t understand some points. I would like to ask:
1. It said "resized /system is required" in the introduction, and the actual operation steps should be what to do?
2. After installing Divest OS, can I install other applications on it at will ? Such as: Facebook,Whatsapp.......
3. If it feels inappropriate, can I install another ROM freely?
Please forgive my ignorance, because I really don’t understand, especially for the first point, I have read the instructions on their official website and did not mention how to resize......but I still have to thank them for their support of Nexus 4 up to now
Well sorry sent incorrect link.

This is the most latest rom I can find (select lineage go 17, this is android 10)
You have to repartition.
That clearly explains the repartition process in the 'voron00 said' quote box.
Google apps are included so you probably can install apps normally.

Ok bro, thank you !
I bought this phone in large part due to the EDL flashing tool which OnePlus decided to lock down and start charging money for. So I'm pretty bummed to see a landscape without much activity or support from various well known projects like TWRP and Lineage. Is there any recovery out there on par with TWRP that works right now whose GitHub repo hasn't been deleted?
Custom recvoerys like TWRP dont play a big role anymore. At least i did not need one on my last 3 devices. OnePlus 8 Pro, Nothing Phone 1, Pixel 7 Pro. All have custom roms and everything is fine.
The only thing i am missing is NandroidBackup but without sdcard sot Nandroid is not really useful anyway.
Short answer: No we have no custom recovery but we dont need one.
Ia there anything working with this Nothing phone
Nandroid backup saved me so many times...
I would like so much TWRP

For me, that's not true.
I have a couple of cases that the TWRP can solve.
- delete some apps in the super partition.
- use scripts from @osm0sis to deactivate force encryption and make super partition writable again
- nandroid backup
- delete magisk modules if they make problems or bootloops
- and much more that I have forgotten
I'm not an expert, but I loved to flash ROM (before my NP!)
Now I'm with 1.5.3 with a big fear to brick my NP1 to jump on a Custom ROM
Every Custom ROM has a particular instruction to flash it, XDA is no more the basic area where the threat are updated, now is Telegram where are all the info
But these "info" are not simple and explained step by step...
TWRP would have been a safe port for me (us? @dreas74 )
... I have no such scripts.

I may have mistaken the author.
In any case, the works are inspired by you.

I think the problem for the most users is they can't handle adb and fastboot and that's why they want a recovery. I haven't used any recovery since OnePlus 8 series and i never missed it.

Then put us in the entire light of the platform tools gods.
How can I disable encryption of the data partition and how can I delete youtube parts in the system partition with ADB or fastboot?

I use ADB and fastboot all the time, but it would be nice to regain the ability to do things without being tethered to a laptop.
Heard somewhere (Telegram group) that TWRP is coming soon.
