[Official ROM] Desire 816 dual-sim (A5_DUG) - Marshmallow + First OTA Update - Desire 816 General

Hello, I'm bringing the Official Marshmallow ROM for desire 816 (dual sim) a5_dug and it's pre-rooted and (all credits goes to (xXminiWHOOPERxX)) and how to intall the OTA updates after flashing the ROM
Rom Information:
Code:
Android OS : 6.0
Kernel : Stock
Sense Version : 7.0
Release Keys : 3.12.401.2 release-keys
Download Link: Mega.nz
How to Install the flashable zip using TWRP recovery:
1. place the flashable zip (Sense7-MarshMallow.3.12.401.2_DualDesire816.zip) on the sd card.
2. wipe the cache, dalvik cache, system, data and internal storage (if you don't have any data on your phone).
3. install Sense7-MarshMallow.3.12.401.2_DualDesire816.zip through the install option in TWRP Recovery.
4. reboot the phone when the installer finishes and everything should be fine.
Now you can't install the OTA update with the custom recovery, and even if you reverted back to stock recovery it won't work, so you have to follow the following instructions to install the OTA update on your custom recovery.
How to Install the OTA update
1. download the OTA update from your phone from
Code:
Settings > About > Software Update
, after it finishes the flashable zip of the update should be located in
Code:
data/data/com.htc.updater/cache/
or
Code:
data/data/com.htc.updater/files/
2. it should be something similar to
Code:
OTA_A5_DUG_M60_DESIRE_SENSE70_MR_HTC_Region_3.21.xxx.x_R-3.12.401.2_release_479056hu4q3r1wkhz4b5n3
3. copy it to your pc and extract the zip file.
4. navigate to
Code:
/META-INF/com/google/android
5. you should find a file named
Code:
update-script
, open it with notepad or sublime text or any code editor you use.
6. from line 4 to 9 you should see the following code
Code:
getprop("ro.build.fingerprint") == "htc/htc_europe/htc_a5dug:6.0/MRA58K/698282.2:user/release-keys" ||
getprop("ro.build.fingerprint") == "htc/htc_europe/htc_a5dug:6.0/MRA58K/748385.1:user/release-keys" ||
abort("Package expects build fingerprint of htc/htc_europe/htc_a5dug:6.0/MRA58K/698282.2:user/release-keys or htc/htc_europe/htc_a5dug:6.0/MRA58K/748385.1:user/release-keys; this device has " + getprop("ro.build.fingerprint") + ".");
getprop("ro.product.device") == "htc_a5dug" || abort("This package is for \"htc_a5dug\" devices; this is a \"" + getprop("ro.product.device") + "\".");
replace it with the following:
Code:
#getprop("ro.build.fingerprint") == "htc/htc_europe/htc_a5dug:6.0/MRA58K/698282.2:user/release-keys" ||
# getprop("ro.build.fingerprint") == "htc/htc_europe/htc_a5dug:6.0/MRA58K/748385.1:user/release-keys" ||
# abort("Package expects build fingerprint of htc/htc_europe/htc_a5dug:6.0/MRA58K/698282.2:user/release-keys or htc/htc_europe/htc_a5dug:6.0/MRA58K/748385.1:user/release-keys; this device has " + getprop("ro.build.fingerprint") + ".");
getprop("ro.product.device") == "a5" || abort("This package is for \"a5\" devices; this is a \"" + getprop("ro.product.device") + "\".");
7. save the file with no extension as it is and re-zip the archive using winzip or whatever tool you use to compress as (zip).
8. flash the OTA zip file you made using TWRP or any custom recovery.

I've uploaded the modified update-script file just in case you couldn't do this steps so you just have to replace the modified update-script with the original one in the OTA zip file.

OTA updates are the software updates you recieve from the phone manufacturer, typically you can't install an OTA update while your phone is rooted so this is the only way to install it.

can you upload OTA + script here?

"/system/bin/app_procss32" has unexpected contents.

I have a question
I bought a cell phone in the US a few years ago, it was blocked by the SPRINT operator, I stayed a long time without using it, and now I decided that I would pack it to use it. I unlocked the bootloader and also the root, put a custom rom but the device is still blocked.
Is there any way to unlock this?
(I'm in Brazil)

Can't say for BR but on MX firmware you need to have 22.34.7 installed before applying this (22.34.11) update.
Both updates installed without any issues.

xposed doesn't modify any system files as far as I know.
Look closely at the error.
You have a unique oppurtunity due to root and twrp. We can strip out the parts that fail from installing and bypass that.
But I need an exact error to do that for you.
Heck, I can even remove the update check, but you stand a strong chance of a soft brick.

Yeah, I've been contemplating editing the updater-script, so it'd install through TWRP on top of LXG22-33-12.7 (the "first" 5.0.2 OTA posted here on XDA).
Please do not install yet
there are 3 updates to install in order
please read the op

@danger2u I was able to flash SOAK 3, with only updating SOAK 1 (didn't flash SOAK 2). It seems that SOAK 3's build requirement is either SOAK 1 or SOAK 2.
EDIT: by the way, SOAK 1 and SOAK 3's filenames are identical. The link in SOAK 1 is 21.6MB, while SOAK 3 is 17.7MB.
I can just tell you how I installed the updates (always rooted with TWRP flashed); For me it worked fairly well without issues but YMMV and there might be easier or better ways:
1> in TWRP: restore TWRP KK Backup (which I made after having received and rooted my telephone but there are "clean" backups available at XDA, AFAIR Chazzmatt posted his')
2> Factory reset
3> Remove root (in SU-App)
4> Flash KK (recovery + boot + radio).img, and sparcechunks by fastboot (from RETLA_XT1225_4.4.4_KXG21.50-9_cid12_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip)
5a> from stock recovery (install from SD card) Lollipop 5.02 : Blur_Version.21.11.9.quark_retla.retla.en.01.zip
5b> from stock recovery (install from SD card) 1st update: Blur_Version.22.34.7.quark_retla.retla.en.01.zip
5b> from stock recovery (install from SD card) 2nd update: Blur_Version.22.34.11.quark_retla.retla.en.01.zip
That's for MX firmware, BR might be different!

Has anyone tried yo install russian flyme Roms with integrated TWRP?

Has anyone tried russian flyme twrp roms? There are 3 Roms in their link, but i don't know how to install it.
any link please ?
I can't put links because i have less than 10 post.
I'm sorry.
Write emmaus.pro in google. There are twrp for mx4 and custom roms, flyme and cm12.
I have Flyme 4.5.7i on my MX4 flashed by TWRP recovery.
(original my mx4 was A edition, and I was unlock bootloader and flash custom recovery with instructions found on xda forum)
Instructions How To Edit Official Flyme Rom to be flashed with TWRP:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Unzip update.zip in empty folder
2. Go in folder with unpacking files and delete uboot.img and logo.img
3. Go in META-INF folder and from here delete imei.dat and machine_match
4. Go in COM/GOOGLE/ANDROID folder and edit updater.script
Remove this :
getprop("ro.product.device") == "mx4" || getprop("ro.product.device") == "mx4" || getprop("ro.product.device") == "M460A" || abort("This package is for "mx4" devices; this is a "" + getprop("ro.product.device") + "".");
package_extract_file("META-INF/machine_match", "/tmp/machine_match");
set_perm(0, 0, 0755, "/tmp/machine_match");
package_extract_file("META-INF/imei.dat", "/tmp/imei.dat");
if (run_program("/tmp/machine_match", "/tmp/imei.dat") != "0") then
ui_print("machine not match");
delete(/tmp/imei.dat);
abort();
endif;
delete(/tmp/imei.dat);
And remove this :
assert(package_extract_file("logo.img", "/tmp/logo.img"),
write_raw_image("/tmp/logo.img", "logo"),
delete("/tmp/logo.img"));
assert(package_extract_file("uboot.img", "/tmp/uboot.img"),
write_raw_image("/tmp/uboot.img", "uboot"),
delete("/tmp/uboot.img"));
Save edited file.
5. Pack again files in .zip arhive (any name except update.zip)
6. Remove or rename any update.zip original file from root sd card
Now you can flash rom with twrp recovery and now you have latest Flyme rom but still have unlocked bootloader and twrp recovery.
I find this instructions on russian forums, and I try it and everything works fine.
You can try it on your responsibility.
Ok, thanks. Where have you downloaded twrp recovery?
Now i have philz 6 recovery, if i flash modded flyme ROM, can i flash it with philz?
I'm pretty sure that if you do a clean install (formating /system /data and /cache) Flyme will reinstall stock recovery. You need to delete recovery-from-boot.p and all install-recovery.sh and install-recovery-original.sh from system file
TWRP (uncompiled and recompiled by myself to change splash screen (it now fit the screen) http://www.mediafire.com/download/26b963db1k489db/new-recovery.img
Can i flash it trough flashify app?
I was flash twrp with fastboot
You can via flashify but fastboot is safer
PERFECT ! I worked hard to make it graphically perfect : http://www.mediafire.com/download/z3ssqo6lnyvwki7/TWRPr4.img
Just flash it with "fastboot flash recovery TWRPr4.img"
Are the russian flyme roms modded to can flash it vía twrp?
yes you can flash them Russians have ported this TWRP and are making some good stuff on flyme rom
Ok, i will try those Roms. Thankyou so much.

I can't understand you. If is already tried that you can flash modded flyme Roma from twrp, why you say that flyme will reinstall stock recovery?
Are you sure?
I'm talking about stock Flyme not modded Flyme Stock flyme contains scripts like recovery-from-boot.p and install-recovery.sh in system.new.dat which reinstall stock recovery, it's what it does to my MX4, but modded flyme certainly don't have these scripts
Understood. Thanks!

Is there any risk of brick flashing twrp vía fastboot?
I have seen many mx4 bricked flashing custom recovery with flashify.
Via fastboot there is nearly no risks because if it's flashed it will boot, and if there is something wrong during unlock fastboot has not been unlock so it will not flash, but don't use the one from my link, there is a newer from emmaus.pro

The error is something like this: This package is for "OnePlus" devices; this is a "ONE".
Anybody know how to fix this without replacing TWRP with stock OP Recovery? Thanks
I read the thread, i think need to flash stock Recovery before flashing

You can flash it thorough official twrp or stock recovery
You can also keep your recovery, but you have to slightly modify your package.
1. Unzip package.
2. Go to META-INF\com\google\android\
3. Edit updater-script with notepad++, or just with any text editor.
You should see "getprop("ro.build.product") == "OnePlus" || abort("This package is for \"OnePlus\" devices; this is a \"" + getprop("ro.build.product") + "\".");"
4. You can delete this line or change getprop("ro.build.product") == "OnePlus" to getprop("ro.build.product") == "One". In my case I had to change it into getprop("ro.build.product") == "onyx".
5. Save it and zip whole package.
6. Flash it and enjoy
My advice is, DO NOT flash this update yet...
Now I cannot back to TWRP anymore... Anyone have a workaround for this?
Still waiting for a solution. :/
Waiting for opinions before flash hehe

No, you cannot simply do that anymore. Look at the OPX forums at forums.oneplus.net, as advised by @pwseo, you need to follow the Mega Unbrick Guide first to fully restore your OPX to its original Lolipop FW, after that you are free to install TWRP again.
Any update on VOLTE?
Root
With Kingroot YouTube can get root, maybe with flashfire you can install twrp?
Edit: Can't install twrp but can install xposed.

With twrp? How?
If you're using stock recovery, just wipe data & cache and flash it.
If you're using TWRP, please do a Factory Reset then wipe system, data, cache, ART cache (very important, you will have many bugs on your device such as not recognize SIM card, Wifi not working... if you don't clean install). Then flash this ROM and reboot twice.
If you encountered error "This package is for "OnePlus" devices; this is a "ONE"." after select the ZIP, please extract the ROM, open the file META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script then remove the first line:
Code:
getprop("ro.build.product") == "OnePlus" || abort("This package is for "OnePlus" devices; this is a "" + getprop("ro.build.product") + "".");
Save the file, re-ZIP the ROM and flash it. Ta-da!

But you won't be able to boot back into twrp, so it's kinda useless. Better to have stock recovery than not being able to boot back into twrp=p
Unless you were able to flash supersu with twrp before booting the rom and not being able to boot back into twrp. Was that the case?

LineageOS 14.1 for SM-J500Y

Hi there,
I was wondering if there are any plans to develop a ROM for the J500Y model, because so far I couldn't find one.
Best,
andreas301
Flash the J500F-M-G version, see if it boots, report on forum thread
I'm currently running ResurrectionRemix v5.8.3 (7.1.2) on my J500Y. First I downloaded the ROM for "J500F-M-G" on my PC and then extracted it using WinRAR, then I opened the file > META-INF > com > google > android, then I opened the updater-script using Notepad++, I then removed the assert line (looks like this, can be a bit longer on certain ROMs:
Code:
assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "j5lte" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "j5lte" || abort("E3004: This package is for device: j5lte; this device is " + getprop("ro.product.device") + "."););
) then I rezipped it and moved it onto my phone then flashed it using TWRP (MAKE SURE YOU ARE ON A LOLLIPOP ROM/BOOTLOADER BEFORE FLASHING, I used the J500F version of TWRP just to make sure it flashed, not sure if it was a necessary step, but if flashing it using the J500Y TWRP after removing the assert lines doesn't work, then try again after flashing the J500F TWRP using Odin) this should work with almost every nougat ROM that can run on the J500F variant, so far I haven't even needed to remove the assert line when flashing a marshmallow custom ROM so there is always that if you still can't get nougat working for you for some reason.

Stuck without an OS [OnePlus 5]

I recently bought an unlocked OnePlus 5 128GB and decided I wanted to root it and install another ROM. So, I did the standard flash of TWRP 3.2.3 for Cheeseburger and also successfully installed Magisk and Substratum. I found myself in an infinite boot screen after applying a Substratum theme so decided to factory reset the phone and start from scratch.
However, I stupidly managed to wipe the phone's OS as well as everything on it when going to factory reset, so now I'm just stuck in TWRP. I cannot install the stock OP5 ROM from the official OnePlus website and have also tried several others such as LineageOS. I've tried all the instructions on this thread to get back to stock but I always receive the dreaded:
Code:
Updater process ended with ERROR: 7
I get this even with the STOCK OnePlus 5 ROM, so there are no "assert" lines in the "updater-script" file like in LineageOS's ROM:
Code:
assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "cheeseburger" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "cheeseburger" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "OnePlus5" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "OnePlus5" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "oneplus5" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "oneplus5" || abort("E3004: This package is for device: cheeseburger,OnePlus5,oneplus5; this device is " + getprop("ro.product.device") + "."););
assert(oneplus.file_exists("/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/vendor") == "1" || abort("Error: Vendor partition doesn't exist!"););
assert(oneplus.verify_modem("2018-11-06 18:11:36") == "1" || abort("Error: This package requires firmware version 5.1.7 or newer. Please upgrade firmware and retry!"););
I've spent the last 4 hours looking for fixes, but they usually tell me to do the following, none of which has worked:
- Update TWRP (I have the latest version)
- Remove "assert" lines from "updater-script" file (Which invalidates the .zip files in non-stock ROMS)
- Use Blu_Spark (Can only find zip downloads, not .img files like everywhere tells me to use; they don't install as recovery menus when fastbooted, it just stays on the OnePlus logo when rebooting into it)
I'm completely stumped and am left with a softbricked OnePlus 5 that's only functionality is booting into fastboot or recovery/TWRP. Can anyone help here?

Error 7 identifies a corrupt os file. Download 5.1.4 and 5.1.7 again without any download manager and remove compatibilit.zip with 7zip on PC.
Use this recovery by flashing it with your current one https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...rdstuck-bootloop-please-t3896101/post78818108
Then follow this instructions https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...rdstuck-bootloop-please-t3896101/post78818624

I've looked into the files in the 5.1.4 update for the OP5 including the "system.new.dat" file but can't find any "compatibilit.zip" in it. It also won't install as it is.
I flashed the recovery "boot.img" file using fastboot but all I get is a static light blue LED and a black screen. Using "adb devices" doesn't show anything connected.

Ah, my bad, too fast. The removal of the compatibility.zip is only necessary on Pie builds!
Which boot.img did you flashed? The linked one codeworkx twrp?you wrote you're able to boot your current twrp so you can flash the other twrp with it.
I flashed this one you linked in your comment -- is this the right one?

I can't get into fastboot to install the recovery software now because I installed that kernel as the recovery...what now?
EDIT: Managed to install TWRP but it flashed the TWRP logo then went back to the OnePlus logo screen.
EDIT #2: In TWRP and installing 5.1.4 is working!
EDIT #3: Phone is booting, will give it some time and update later.
SUCCESS! In summary, here's what I did:
1) Boot into fastboot (POWER + VOL UP)
2) fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.2.3-0-20181031-codeworkx-cheeseburger.img
3) fastboot boot twrp-3.2.3-0-20181031-codeworkx-cheeseburger.img
4) Wipe system, data & cache using TWRP
5) Install 5.1.4, then Magisk, then format internal storage
6) Boot OS
Thank you so much; you're a lifesaver, strongst!
