Rongyue E5 Custom ROM & Flashing Toolkit (Global Edition)
Based on Modified Official Chinese Firmware


Latest Update:
This is the ultimate custom ROM and low-level firmware toolkit for the Rongyue E5. It has been highly optimized for speed, flexibility, and power users, removing all factory restrictions and providing a clean, out-of-the-box global experience.

System & UI Optimizations:
•Out-of-the-box Ready: Setup Wizard is bypassed by default.
•Global Default Settings: Default language is set to English, and USB Debugging (ADB) is enabled by default.
•UI Enhancements: Replaced the default SMS app with the cleaner Android Stock/AOSP Messages. Upgraded the default launcher with an optimized layout.
•Hardware Key Remap: The "Confirm" button (the one opposite the Back key) has been remapped to the Recent Apps / Multitasking key for better navigation.
•Debloated & Unrestricted: Unnecessary bloatware removed. System-level APK installation restrictions are completely disabled.
•Custom Boot Animation: Replaced the default boot screen with a custom "Buka-niang" (Anime) boot animation.
•Pre-installed Utilities: Includes a lightweight App Store, a One-Click Screen Off app, and other practical tools.

Bootloader & Core Unlock
•Fully Cracked Bootloader: Pre-unlocked by default.
•No Waiting Time: The annoying 10-second "Bootloader Unlocked" warning delay has been removed for a much faster boot experience.
•Clean Boot Logo: The "Bootloader Unlocked" warning text on the very first boot screen has been hidden for a clean, stock look.
•AVB Disabled: Android Verified Boot (AVB) is disabled by default, allowing for custom partitions and GSI flashing.
•Custom Recovery: Integrated with the Final Version of TWRP and an Experimental Fastboot Mode (Beta).
•Data Decryption: Disabled force-encrypt on the /data partition.


Connection Guide (BROM Mode)
To use the flashing scripts provided in this package, your device must enter BROM (Flash) Mode:
1.Power off the device completely.
2.Press and hold the BACK key.
3.Connect the USB cable to your PC while holding the key.


Important Notices:
•Antivirus Warning: Please Disable all Antivirus software and Windows Defender before running the scripts. These security tools often falsely flag flashing utilities as viruses and may interrupt the process, which could lead to a bricked device.
•Data Decryption: This ROM has Data encryption removed. If your phone is currently encrypted, you MUST use the "Full Flash Script" (which wipes data) to ensure a successful boot.
•Backup First: Always perform a full dump/backup of all partitions before attempting any operations!

Android 15 Beta for Rongyue E5 - Custom ROM & Flashing Toolkit (Ported Edition)
Based on LAVA Smartphone Firmware


Latest Update:
This version is heavily optimized for the speed, flexibility, and advanced power users of the Rongyue E5. All factory restrictions have been removed to provide a clean, out-of-the-box global experience.

System & UI Optimizations:
•Out-of-the-box Ready: Setup Wizard is bypassed by default.
•Global Default Settings: Default language is set to English, and USB Debugging (ADB) is enabled by default.
•UI & Launcher Enhancements: Bypassed the default SMS app with the cleaner Android Stock/AOSP Messages. Offers a Dual-Launcher setup: features both a standard stock Android launcher and a swipe-based launcher optimized for keypad feature phones.
•Practical Features: Includes Fullscreen Gestures support to maximize the potential of small-screen keypad devices.
•Ultra-Debloated: Removed all unnecessary pre-installed bloatware and completely stripped out all GMS (Google Mobile Services) to ensure smooth performance on low-RAM hardware.
•Custom Boot Animation: Replaced the default boot animation with a custom Pineapple logo.
•Built-in Root: Pre-installed KernelSU_NEXT. Simply install the manager app to get instant root access.
•Performance Tweak: Officially integrated with ZRAM tuning to drastically reduce runtime stutter and make the system much smoother.

Bootloader & Core Unlock
•Fully Cracked Bootloader: Pre-unlocked by default.
•No Waiting Time: The annoying 10-second "Bootloader Unlocked" warning delay has been removed for a much faster boot experience.
•Clean Boot Logo: The "Bootloader Unlocked" warning text on the very first boot screen has been hidden for a clean, stock look.
•TrustOS Disabled: Security protection modules are disabled by default. Any modifications to any partition will be bypassed and allowed, letting enthusiasts fearlessly experiment with modifying low-level firmware.
•Custom Recovery: Integrated with the Final Version of TWRP, specially optimized to speed up device booting.
•Data Decryption: Disabled force-encrypt on the /data partition.

Connection Guide (BROM Mode)
To use the flashing scripts provided in this package, your device must enter BROM (Flash) Mode:
1.Power off the device completely.
2.Press and hold the BACK key.
3.Connect the USB cable to your PC while holding the key.

Important Notices:
•Antivirus Warning: Please Disable all Antivirus software and Windows Defender before running the scripts. These security tools often falsely flag flashing utilities as viruses and may interrupt the process, which could lead to a bricked device.
•Data Decryption: This ROM has Data encryption removed. If your phone is currently encrypted, you MUST use the "Full Flash Script" (which wipes data) to ensure a successful boot.
•Backup First: Always perform a full dump/backup of all partitions before attempting any operations!

Known Bugs & Issues:
1. Lockscreen Bug: When the UI and font scaling are turned up/enlarged, the clock on the lockscreen displays incorrectly.
2. Keypad Limitation: In the standard launcher/desktop mode, pressing the physical number keys will not automatically bring up the dialer interface. Furthermore, the stock Dialer app does not support physical keyboard/keypad text input.
3. Status Bar Scaling: The status bar area takes up a bit too much screen real estate. On a 320x480 resolution, the home screen launcher only registers 240x320 for screen inputs (Note: This does not affect watching videos or gaming).
4. RAM Usage: Memory consumption is slightly higher compared to Android 13, but it does not significantly impact daily usage.
5. Camera UI Bug: The camera user interface has layout issues due to the screen size; taking photos and switching to video recording mode can only be triggered via the physical Volume Keys.

Nokia HMD OS (Android 14) Port for Rongyue E5 - Custom ROM & Flashing Toolkit
Based on Official Unisoc-Platform Firmware


Latest Update:
I am thrilled to release the first-ever port of Nokia HMD OS (Android 14) for the Rongyue E5! I recently came across a Nokia/HMD device running on a similar Unisoc chipset platform, so I decided to port, adapt, and patch the system files for our E5. After a few days of intense debugging and polishing, this ROM is now highly stable and fully ready for daily use.

I have successfully backported premium features like Face Unlock and Nokia's proprietary audio enhancements—unlocking advanced capabilities that aren't even present in the stock ROM!

System & UI Optimizations:
• Global Default Settings: System language defaults to English.
• Face Unlock: Seamlessly integrated biometric face recognition, completely eliminating the need to type PINs/passwords on a small screen.
• OZO Playback Audio: Ported Nokia's signature OZO sound engine to make the external speaker significantly louder, richer, and punchier.
• HMD Background Manager: Inherited the HMD team's proprietary background management system to ensure incredibly smooth performance on our 2GB RAM hardware.
• Smart Battery Protection: Integrated built-in battery health preservation features to help extend the life of your physical battery.
• ZRAM Tuning: Officially integrated customized ZRAM parameters to drastically reduce runtime stutter and keep UI transitions fluid.
• GMS Framework: Google Mobile Services are pre-installed by default for users who require Google app synchronization.
• Custom Physical Key Shortcuts:
  - Long press [Menu] (2 seconds) -> Triggers the Recent Tasks (multitasking) menu.
  - Long press [Back] (2 seconds) -> Instantly force-kills the active foreground app (ideal for stuck apps).

Bootloader & Core Unlock
• Fully Cracked Bootloader: Pre-unlocked by default.
• No Waiting Time: The annoying 10-second "Bootloader Unlocked" warning delay has been completely removed for a much faster boot experience.
• Clean Boot Logo: The ugly "Bootloader Unlocked" warning text on the very first boot screen has been hidden for a clean, stock look.
• TrustOS Disabled: Security protection modules are disabled by default. Any modifications to any partition will be bypassed and allowed, letting enthusiasts fearlessly experiment with modifying low-level firmware.
• Custom Recovery: Pre-integrated with the Final Version of TWRP, specially optimized to speed up device booting.
• Data Decryption: Disabled force-encrypt on the /data partition.

Flashing Guide
Flashing is fully automated via a single .bat script.
It is highly recommended to perform a full backup/dump of your device before proceeding. Once ready, run:
02.[Flash_Mode]_One_Click_Flash_Wipes_User_Data.bat and enter BROM mode to begin.

How to Enter BROM Mode:
1. Power off the device completely.
2. Press and hold the BACK key on the physical keypad.
3. While holding the key, connect the USB cable from your PC to your phone.

Important Notices:
• Antivirus Warning: Please disable all antivirus software and Windows Defender before running the scripts. These security tools often falsely flag flashing utilities as malware and may interrupt the flashing process, which could lead to a hard-bricked device.
• Data Decryption: This ROM has Data encryption removed. If your phone's storage is currently encrypted, you MUST use the "Full Flash Script" (which wipes user data) to ensure a successful boot.
• Backup First: Always perform a full dump/backup of all partitions before attempting any operations!

Known Bugs & Issues:
1. Lockscreen Scaling Bug: When the UI and font scaling are turned up/enlarged, the clock on the lockscreen displays incorrectly.
2. Keypad Limitation: In the standard launcher/desktop mode, pressing the physical number keys will not automatically bring up the dialer interface. Furthermore, the stock Dialer app does not support physical keyboard/keypad text input.
3. Dialing & Call Disconnect: Dialing numbers and disconnecting active calls can only be operated via the touchscreen. Physical call/end keys are not natively mapped.
4. Camera UI Bug: The camera function is fully operational and supports photo capture via the physical Confirm/OK key. However, due to screen size constraints, the camera user interface layout is slightly cramped and crowded.
5. RAM Usage: Memory consumption is slightly higher compared to Android 13, but it does not significantly impact daily usage.

If you have any questions or suggestions about this ROM, feel free to leave a comment. Thanks!

⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTICE / CRITICAL WARNING ⚠️

DO NOT rely solely on TWRP "Format Data" for Android 14+ (Android 15) Cross-Version Upgrades!

Problem Identified:
On devices running Android 14 and above (especially Android 14 / Unisoc platforms / Treble GSI ports), TWRP's built-in Wipe -> Format Data often leaves behind incomplete FBE (File-Based Encryption) metadata and leftover partition headers.

This causes the system to suffer from PMS initialization crashes and infinite bootloop on the 2nd boot screen after a clean flash!


🔥 THE 100% WORKING SOLUTION: FASTBOOT -W 🔥

If you encounter a bootloop when upgrading across Android versions (e.g., Android 14 ➔ Android 15), you MUST perform a clean wipe from Fastboot mode:

Step-by-step fix:
1. Reboot the device into Fastboot Mode.
2. Connect to PC, open CMD / Terminal and run this MANDATORY command:

👉 fastboot -w 👈

Code:

fastboot -w

3. Reboot your device:
Code:

fastboot reboot

Summary Rule of Thumb:
A complete userdata wipe via fastboot -w is MANDATORY for cross-version upgrades to bypass legacy TWRP 12.1 formatting limitations and properly initialize default permissions, idmap2 caches, and PackageManagerService on the first boot!

🚀 Nokia HMD OS Port for Rongyue E5 (Android 15 Update) 🚀

Base Updated to Android 15 + ZRAM Optimization

System Status & Compatibility:
Updated base to Android 15 with ZRAM enabled — fully tested and confirmed working smoothly on the hardware-modded 4GB RAM edition; the stock 2GB version is untested, but theoretically should boot successfully with ZRAM active (otherwise it may get stuck on the boot animation).
