TWRP is now available for the ASUS ZenFone Max M2, Lenovo Tab4 10 Plus, UMIDIGI F1 Play, and Vestel Venus V4

-

Installing a custom recovery on your Android smartphone is among the initial steps while you’re trying to install any kind of custom software like a custom ROM, kernels, and more. TWRP is the most widely used custom recoveries around which offers features like ADB sideloading as well as partition-wise backup and restore functionality besides the general ability to install packages or wiping storages. Its intuitive GUI (unlike the forgotten CMW) makes it easy to get tasks accomplished even if you have limited know-how. While TWRP is open source, leading to unofficial versions, the developers of TWRP are hard at work adding official support for more and more devices by the day. Today, a few more smartphones are getting added to this list and these include the ASUS ZenFone Max M2, Lenovo Tab4 Plus, UMIDIGI F1 Play, and Vestel Venus V4.

ASUS ZenFone Max M2 XDA Forums

Launched last year, the ASUS ZenFone Max M2 sports a near-stock UI and is powered by a Snapdragon 632 along with 3GB of RAM. If you own a ZenFone Max M2 or are planning to buy one, the official TWRP will allow you to explore different customization possibilities on your devices.

Lenovo Tab4 10 Plus

Lenovo released the Tab4 10 Plus along with three other devices back in 2017. But with its losing share in the market and the decline of the popularity of tablet, the company has sidelined any development. The Tab4 10 Plus did not even get an official Android Oreo update and if you have one and want to try out newer versions of Android, we recommend taking the risk of flashing a custom ROM – at least for the sake of the latest security updates.

UMIDIGI F1 Play

UMIDIGI makes some really economical yet powerful Android smartphones and is now expanding its footprint outside of China. The F1 Play is one of the company’s latest devices and it brings 48MP camera, Full HD+ waterdrop display, 6GB RAM, and 5,150mAh battery at a price of $200. While it comes with stock Android, you might want to fiddle with the available customization options and this is where TWRP will be useful.

Vestel Venus V4

The Vestel Venus V4 is made by Turkish home appliances company Vestel which ventured into the smartphone market back in 2014. The Venus V4 was announced in 2017 with Android Nougat and there’s no concrete information of any update since then. TWRP will help you achieve more with the device if you own one.

Download & Install TWRP

Besides the traditional method of installing TWRP using .img file and flashing it via ADB, you can also get it directly on your smartphone. To get started, install the official TWRP app and downloading the supported recovery image. Then browse to the download location, choose the file, and tap on Flash to Recovery to install it on your smartphone.

Motorola’s foldable Razr phone may be announced before year’s end

-
While Samsung’s saga with the Galaxy Fold appears to finally be coming to an end , there are other foldables destined to be released soon. The Huawei Mate X is the other big name, but it has been delayed a couple of times as well. The other foldable device that we’ve heard about a few times is the rumored Motorola Razr reboot, and a new report claims an announcement is coming this year still. Earlier this year, reports suggested Motorola would launch its foldable phone this summer. That time has come and gone without a peep from Motorola, but a new report claims it’s still coming this year. This information comes from a person close to the company speaking to CNET . It’s unlikely that the device will actually be sold this year, but we should at least see the device before 2020. Motorola has already confirmed that they are working on a foldable smartphone. The “Razr” name was also confirmed by a Bluetooth certification. We exclusively reported on the specifications of the device ,...

Behind Dynamic System Updates in Android Q: How Google is using Project Treble to improve future Android releases

-
Image
Alongside the release of Android 8.0 Oreo, Google unveiled Project Treble : a major rearchitecting in the way the Android OS framework and the vendor HALs and Linux kernel communicate. Treble is a major initiative designed to reduce Android platform version and security patch fragmentation , and all Android-branded devices launching with Android Pie are required to support Project Treble. OEMs and vendors test Treble compatibility by booting a Generic System Image (GSI)—a pure stock build of Android from AOSP—and passing the Vendor Test Suite (VTS) and Compatibility Test Suite-on-Generic System Image (CTS-on-GSI). The GSI has proven useful in not only allowing software engineers working for OEMs test Treble compatibility, but it has also opened the door for a large custom ROM community on XDA. For the Android Q release, Google wants to make GSIs useful for another group: app developers. Since the first stable release and source code drop of any given Android platform release usual...
