I am still using crDroid 7.16 (A11), which is fast and reliable. And 1,5 years old, but that doesn't matter for me.

I'm still using the X Neo and am still satisfied.

Afaik no. You can try to flash a 3.7.0 TWRP for similar SDM660 devices (Xiaomi Mi Pad 4, Redmi Note 7 etc.), there are some official versions at the TWRP site. But due to different drivers in the kernel or other differences it is possible that some parts of the X Neo don't work after that (e.g...

Hm, is your bootloader unlocked? If not, please follow the modification guide in post 1. I recommend to do it with chinese rom 20200522. After unlocking you should be able to flash the modified global rom. If your bootloader is already unlocked, I don't know any advice now, but search this...

Please specify the rom you tried to flash and how (UFS or EMMC). Which rom did you have on it before?

Never had performance issues with the X-Neo (and this crDroid), so I also think this device will last for some more years. Security patches are overrated. :) And it won't be easy to replace the X-Neo either, since no tablet of the lower price segments has an Amoled screen anyway.

Has someone tested with one of the A13-roms?

Btw., I just noticed that Eremitein's last login at XDA was 2022.06.25, so it seems he has to solve other problems and his CrDroid will not be continued.

fawkesyeah I'm still at A11 and I think I will not update to A12 due to the difficulties TWRP still has with A12 up to version 3.62 even with not encrypted partitions. Some days ago version 3.70 was released with encryption support for A12, but this won't help us at the moment.

As you are on CrDroid, you can simply flash a newer version over the older one from within TWRP and after that Magisk again, without erasing data etc. All to both slots. If you use a bgz version now you should dirty flash the same. If you want to change to bvz version without Google apps I think...

I flashed the a/b rom to slot a only.

Is that really nessessary? I used the a/b rom like before.

So that means after flashing A12 rom you are able to boot into TWRP the normal way?

fawkesyeah Did you read post #546?

Is your RQ2A.210405.005 a different version of crDroid from another maintainer? On Eremiteins download site there is no version from 2021.04.05. If yes, you should make a clean flash. Depending gapps, I always used the vanilla-roms and flashed gapps after that because you can mostly choose the...
