@extream87 for EFS backup & restore script
StackOverFlow users, without other people's answer, I wouldn't be able to make this @Chainfire, for creating SuperSU @Mnt-XDA, for creating the bootoloader unlocker @graffixnyc, for packing ColorOS
And other peolple I forgot, for helping me making this, specially to r0i from DarkSideTeam Forums...
FAQs:
In which order must I press the buttons? I just want to root my phone...
First of anything,you must unlock your device.
If you are on 25r, you can use method 2 and avoid wiping your data.
If you have 30O or 33R, you must use method 1, and yes, it will wipe your data.
After data, you can just root, install your custom recovery or kernel or do whatever you want..
Developers info:
How was the toolkit made??
It's an application completely coded in Java, wich comes with a "tools" folder and it's runned by a hidden BAT to prevent JRE issues. The "tools" folder contains a basic ADB kit, some bat scripts that the application executes for locking and unlocking the bootloader, and a download kit based on wget for Windows.
Everything is contained in a self-executable rar file so there's only one file for users. It extracts himself on c:windowstempOPO Toolkit folder.
How does the toolkit work??
The application obtains his own path in your computer and from there, it runs the proper bat files to download the neccesary files and perform the desired actions.
Is posible to port it to other OS?
Yes. The Jar file doesn't need a port, and you just need to port the bat files into bash scripts(linux)
Edit: I've just seen @scumpicule 's toolkit. If he wants, we can colaborate using his scripts for a bigger and better GUI toolkit!! Send me a PM!!
My antivirus sais it's malware...
There's no malware on this toolkit.
Only false positives detected by a chinese antivirus, possibly because it's a self-extractable RAR file wich extracts himself on "C:WindowsTempOPO_Toolkit". The RAR file runs then the vbs file, which runs the bat file and which runs the JAR file. Maybe that's suspiciuous for the antivirus.
Why the bat runs the jar? Because some Java versions have problems while directly executing a jar.
Why the vbs runs the bat? Becayse if not, a black cmd window appears with the GUI.
The other exe files standard adb, standard fastboot, a wget for windows which I found here and a 7za module from the official webpage.
The bats are simple scripts and you can easy inspect them.
What lasts? The jar.
Whith first stable version, I will release the source code of the GUI application.
BUT if someone recognized in xda or in OP forums is suspicious and wants to look at it now, I will provide it to him.
Is this 100% clean o you want more warraties? Just ask me on the thread.

Looks nice.
I downloaded the .exe, but when I run it, noting happens. I don't get a GUI at all.
Yep, forgot that I didn't have Java installed.
Thanks for this! Will definitely be using it whenever I need to root and whatnot again.
Nice job, thanks a lot for your sharing.

Not really. I can write bash scripts however. Didn't take a look at your code yet, but will sometime today.
---------- Post added at 03:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:41 PM ----------
Just took a quick gaze at your files... Only thing that's needed to be added are the linux binaries for adb and fastboot as well as adding those to path. Just a few commands, shouldn't be hard.But I don't know how exactly to pack the whole thing in one executable file in linux, could do a script for the whole thing however...
Today I worked a bit in the Toolkit. Flashing of CM11S and color os is on its way. Bigger problem is when downloading color os(i need help, I cant find a direct link)..
A button to enter in fastboot and recovery mode is being added on main menu, and some bugs are beeing fixed. Maybe tomorrow v1.1 is out!!
Androidfilehost doesnt let me download color os from direct link. If anyone can find it or mirror it on dev host.com, it will be appreciated..
Just asked for permission to mirror... If yes, I'll provide you a link for it on devhost.

Without unlocked boot loader, you can't boot a custom recovery...
Make sure that you are in fast boot mode.
Next version will include a option to install drivers

Nice tool
Just one comment regarding all AOSP based roms
from Lloir and myself which use the BLADE kernel
You dont need to do this for those roms!
The rom is taking care that the kernel modules are
in the correct location if required using an init.d script
But it will do no harm cause we are "smart" enough do detect it

cool, im guessing you're speaking of modules injector??
i was wondering why we aren't using something like that on the HOX,
im guessing you either have a bigger boot partition or that module's sizes are really small?
worst come to worst... this still have a logging feature which will come in handy...
and for the record, ill update and make it more usable

The modules are included in the boot image in /lib/modules
and synced with /system/lib/modules on boot if required
Using xz compression for the kernel makes it small enough
So e.g. BLADE kernel has about 4.4mb including everything

Help! I'm getting "Invalid Modules" when trying to flash kernel. This is what I did: unzipped boot.img and modules folder from elemental kernel, put those them in the respective folders under one x one click folder, ran the one click exe as administrator (win7), chose the kernel img and modules zip, it seems to run for a second and then the invalid modules and operation terminated. Obviously I'm not doing it correctly with the modules zip process.

Why a L and a F version ?
L means lite : the two versions offers the same functionnalities but the F (full) version include the system images of android. If you just want to root your device, you can choose the L version. If your device has some problems (android won't boot...) use the Full version to restore it.
The L version is about 50Mo, the F one is about 350Mo.
I don't really know Android, should I use this toolkit ?
You use this toolkit at your own risks. I'm not responsible in case of bricked devices. If your device has some problems, search a tutorial explaining how to restore your device by flashing things with Adb & fastboot : Efrant has made a really easy to understand one.
Your toolkit don't work, what can I do ?
Report your problem here, if there's something wrong with the toolkit : I'll fix it.

Re: [TOOLKIT] Nx4Toolkit v1.0
I've added the Mac version with a feature to enable USB OTG (Thanks Ziddey !)
Have fun !

I think the nexus 4 toolkit which is stickied stopped working properly after the 4.2.2 update when it comes to rooting etc... Most things still did tho... So if this works all around then that's good...!
Keep it up...

1.2 Mac update
Just a post to tell you that I've updated the Mac toolkit.
New things :
-Toolkit update function
-OTG install fix
-Get back to stock with Android 4.2.2
-The possibility to install a custom ROM from the toolkit (such as P.A or CM)
I think it's one of the last update before Android 5.0, the P.C version will be up to date this week to have the same functions as the Mac version
Important note : The new version is very big (about 330Mo) cause of the android system.img included. I think you would like a lite version of the program including only the toolkit essentials : i'm planing on it.
Here gave error in time to start the toolkit. The system can not start the program, because the original item could not be found.

Oh ! I know the reason of this problem : the file on the desktop is pointing of a file located on my personal home directory. I'm actually fixing it.
If you want to use the toolkit right now, just go to Macintosh hd / User / Your user name / Nx4toolkit / Nx4toolkit
thanks for reporting.

To fix the problem : type "ln -s ~/Nx4toolkit/nx4toolkit ~/Desktop/Nx4toolkit-1.2" without quotes in terminal.app
The fixed full package is actually uploading. I'll edit the O.P tonight.
Edit : the original package is now fixed
1.2 update
I've updated the windows version to 1.2
Now, you can enable OTG, install a custom ROM, restore your device as stock without downloading files, check for updates directly from the toolkit.
The backup and restore are a little bit different, you can give a name to the backup files and restore any ".ab" file to your device.
Hope you'll enjoy this update. If you have any problem, please, report it to this theard. Thanks.

Thanks for this piece of software, needed something like this for the mac to backup my Nexus 4.
Any ETA on 1.2 mac update? Also does the USB OTG work with a standard OTG cable or is a special cable needed for the extra power?

Now you can fully backup your nexus 4 on your mac !
I've made two versions of Nx4Toolkit : a lite (just the essentials) and a full one including the android images.
For the OTG, it's based on Ziddey work, so you'll need to see his own theard on it for a support, but I'm sure that an external power is needed.
****
Would you like an user interface for Nx4Toolkit ?
I wish to uninstall the full version for the lite, is it just a matter of dragging the folder to trash and deleting or is there a cleaner way?
There's no "clean way" to uninstall. Just delete the Nx4toolkit folder in your home directory. But I think you can start the new install without deleting nothing : It will overwrite the actual Nx4Toolkit.

Notes
For anyone having device not found problems follow this post. HERE
(Specifically the part under the picture)
You may have to manually install the driver twice like I did, once with the phone in regular mode and once in fastboot mode. It will show a little ! in device manager.
Thanks to @genardas for the tips.

It's not copy/paste because It's other and more different possibilities and not the same build into this toolkit...

I got it figured out I didn't know I had to manually put it in fast boot mode. Other toolkits I have used do that automatically. You might want to put that in the op.

Disclaimer: You are responsible for insuring you keep a backup of your stock recovery!
See Post 7 for the Stock Recovery if you failed to keep a copy for yourself: Click here
Steps for Backing up Stock Recovery:
Code:
fastboot boot /path/to/TWRP.img
The above command will only boot the recovery and will not overwrite your stock recovery making it possible to backup your stock from within TWRP. Now backup your recovery partition from within TWRP. It will be saved on your device and named, recovery.emmc.win. You can rename it to recovery.img to flash it back via usage of fastboot or apply restore within TWRP given the original filename, recovery.emmc.win.
Or within a terminal using dd (aka Data Destroyer);
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p19 of=/sdcard/stockrecovery.img
TWRP for MT2-L03
Team Win Recovery Project 2.x, or twrp2 for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. Its a fully touch driven user interface no more volume rocker or power buttons to mash. The GUI is also fully XML driven and completely theme-able. You can change just about every aspect of the look and feel.

CHANGELOG for 2.8.0.0:
-Add MTP support to recovery thanks mostly to bigbiff with a little help from Dees_Troy
-Add command line capabilities - you can now execute various TWRP features via adb instead of the touchscreen
-Add support for color in the console and give error, warning, and highlight lines different colors
-Track backup and restore progress based on file sizes to provide a much more accurate indication of progress
-Improve handling of /misc thanks to mdmower
-Improve setting of time on Qualcomm devices thanks to [NUT]
-Allow using images on slidervalue GUI objects thanks to Tassadar
-Allow using variables and addition and subtraction in variables for easier theming
-Add support for 1440x2560, 280x280, and 320x320 resolutions and update 240x240
-Allow ui.xml file to include additional xml files to help break up the theme and make TWRP easier to maintain
-Other minor fixes and improvements
Over the course of the last year or so, bigbiff has worked to migrate various Java functions from Android's MTP implementation to bring you a fully C++ based MTP implementation that allows you to transfer files to both emulated storage and Micro SD cards. It's confirmed to work on various Nexus devices but we may have to make some changes on other devices to keep Windows happy. Windows is very picky about USB IDs and its drivers. We have tested it on Windows 7 and 8 as well as Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty. MTP is enabled by default, but we do toggle it off and on automatically during certain operations such as if you choose to wipe a storage partition. You can enable or disable MTP under the mount menu in TWRP. For more about what MTP is here.
Note: Due to a weird bug with our MTP setup, you cannot copy a zip file to the root of storage with Windows. You can change the .zip to something else like .txt and then copy it to the root and rename the file back to .zip once it's copied to the device. You can also copy the zip into any subfolder.
Command line support is also now available. You can perform various OpenRecoveryScript commands via the adb shell. Depending on what you are doing you may wish to do a "twrp set tw_mtp_enabled 0" and then reboot to prevent the MTP auto toggle from killing your adb interface. You can use this option to create and restore backups, wipe, install zips, and more. Via adb shell, type twrp followed by a space then enter the OpenRecoveryScript command and hit enter. Find more OpenRecoveryScript commands here.

Unlock Your Bootloader:
As we all know, you are not required to be rooted to install TWRP, however, you must unlock the bootloader on your device.
You must email [email protected] asking:
Hello I purchased the Ascend Mate 2 and I would like my bootloader unlock code.
SN: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
IMEI: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Thank you

You should get a response within 24 hours. In a situation where 24 hours has passed by than simply be patient or send another email. This is the 1st step to being able to unlock your bootloader (as of now)!
Here is a video to demonstrate to you viewers how you can go about unlocking your bootloader.

I will flash tomorrow. You just made the HAM2 the hottest phone out.
Sent from my MT2L03 using XDA Free mobile app
Thanks to all involved. Re-installed root using TWRP. Now Titanium Backup is working properly.
Flashed just now!
Backing up at the moment.
THANK YOU ALL!!!
How I did it:
Win 8 pc.
Phone booted and usb debugging allowed.
typed "adb.exe reboot bootloader" in cmd terminal
typed "fastboot flash recovery c:\adb\TWRP.img" in cmd terminal
I downloaded zip to my adb directory, also had to rename it too "TRWP.img" as download was "TWRP_MT2-L03_RECOVERY.img"
back up completed in 480 seconds!
Did have to play with TWRP settings as I hadn't used it in a while .
DID I SAY THANK YOU!!!
For anyone who is lazy to backup your stock recovery, I have uploaded my stock recovery image backup here, it should be same for all our MT2-L03 phone
This is backup of stock recovery, only use this image if you want to revert back from TWRP to Huawei stock crappy recovery.

Thanks iammudd, I think it is confirmed the recovery image is same for all MT2L03 phone.
Absolutely freakin' FANTASTIC!!!
Flashed it via fastboot with no problems.
I couldn't get MTP to work, but that's not a huge surprise to me as I've NEVER seen MTP work properly in TWRP on any device I've had sofar. I'd be interested to see if it works for anyone else.
So awesome that a root method is built right in too!
I think this is the verge of some huge things happening for our MT2-L03s!!!
Thanks for the great work!

Well done everyone ! Excellent stuff.
I suppose you know what my question will be,lol, but is it feasible to be able to port this to the MT2-L05 or other Chinese models?
If it's likely to be feasible, would it be possible to have your permission to attempt a port, or do you think as the underlying processors are different
it would probably wiser to start from scratch?
Either way, good work again !

Interesting that backup filename is 1970-03-23 but the timestamp is 1979-12-31 23:00 on the phone.
After FTP'ing them onto Win7, their last modified times are 2013-12-31 22:00.
The device configuration folder used to build TWRP is available on my github which you can find the link in the OP under "SOURCES". If you have any knowledge on this stuff then feel free to look it over and throw some patches my way. As it stands, mtp isn't working properly however, mtp has only been known to work for a very small select list of devices. A very small list. As for the time stamp, this isn't much of a concern on my part as it is merely cosmetic. However, the problem with it would most definitely be the result of the actual TWRP source and not the configuration folder (device tree). Feel free to look further in to it if it is bothersome.
Right now, my goal is to see if I can resolve the mtp issue if it happens to be at all plausible since the mtp featured in TWRP is still fairly new and has much more work to be done with it over at TeamWin.
Currently looking in to offmode charging as well. This is merely cosmetic. But would be nice to have.

Hi, just saw your another post about MT2-L05 RESOURCES. I am not sure if Modding.MyMind have time or not to do this. Maybe we can do some quick test, if worked, then his build (after small update) can support L05 phone as well.
Sending you a PM.
Just flashed TWRP recovery, and it's working great!
Now we just need a CyanogenMod ROM. While I'm thinking about it, when does Android "L" officially get released? It would be nice to just jump from Jelly Bean to L.

L should be released sometime in October I believe, alongside the new Nexus phone and tablet.
Supposedly the HAM2 is getting an EMUI 3.0 update (KK) in November. I don't know if the US version is included though.

All released versions can be found here.
[ROOT] Use SuperSU 2.62 or higher from here systemless for 6.0.1 and above.
Known bugs/limitations: - For partition Flashing, it is recommended(mandatory?) to do a reboot-bootloader if you want to flash multiple partitions one after the other. (according to the Google flashing scripts) (Implemented in 1.2.1)
- For return to stock, the tool will be stuck after your phone successfully boots, you need to reboot to fastboot again in order to flash the Radio and finish the full return to stock. (Fixed in 1.2.0)
Changelog:
Check the changelog for each release here.
Tutorials/FAQ:
Q: How do I get in bootloader/fastboot mode?
Turn off the phone and turn it on by using Volume down + Power key.
Q: How do I check for updates in your tool?
Follow the instructions in the screen below.
Q: Where can I find the device driver to install it for windows?
Click here, download the driver and run the setup.
Q: How do I root my stock phone?
- Unlock bootloader.
- Flash recovery.
- Use SuperSU 2.62 systemless or higher from here.
(Usually the latest version upon tool release is included in the Sideload folder of the tool, you can either sideload it or copy it to recovery and flash it manually)
Q: I get an error "Cannot open file" on MAC, what should I do?
Open the terminal, go to your application path and paste this command:
Code:
chmod +x LxMultiTool.app/contents/macos/*
Q: What do I need to do in order to be in Fastboot or in ADB mode.
Fastboot mode will be detected only while being in bootloader.
ADB mode will be detected from Recovery (custom) and actual ROM with USB debugging active.
Refresh button needs to be used in order to check for what mode you are in.
Q: Are there any other software that I need to install in order to run this tool?
On Windows and MAC everything is bundled, so nothing needs to be installed, just run.
On Linux you need to install from your package manager libQt5Core, libQt5Widgets, libQt5Gui, libQt5Network.
If it's not enough, use ldd LxMultiTool in terminal to find out what you're missing from your environment.
Q: I have an yellow/orange/red text screen during boot, what's that?
When you unlock you usually get the Orange screen and it's normal, but if you really want to know what's this about, give a reading to this.
Q: Hey, my device is not detected, why?
On windows, you need to manually install the USB drivers, they are not included and probably they won't be included in this tool.
Also, make sure you click the connection Refresh button after connecting the device to your PC.
Q: What do i need to do in order to install a custom ROM?
1. Unlock Bootloader.
2. Flash a custom recovery of your choice.
3. Flash an insecure kernel (boot).
4. Flash custom ROM with no problems via recovery.
All those things are found and can be done via this tool.
Q: Hi, i just downloaded this tool, how do i use it?
First, extract the folder somewhere.
After that, run LxMultiTool.exe on windows by double clicking it, LxMultiTool on linux and the same on mac.
Q: Do I need android-sdk installed or something else?
No! This tool uses it's own supplied binaries for adb and fastboot, if you have android-sdk installed it will be ignored anyways.
This tool is fully portable and stand-alone.
Q: I get an error while trying to unlock the bootloader -> FAILED(remote: oem unlock is not allowed), what now?
Starting with Android 5.0, you need to enable Bootloader Unlocking from the developer settings, in order to do that, follow these steps:
- Enable Developer options
- Enable USB Debugging
- Look for the ‘OEM Unlock’ Option and toggle it.
Q: How do I use the return to stock feature?
First download the latest package from here, then extract the contents (there is an archive in the archive) untill you get the a folder like angler-mda89d
that contains the images, that folder needs to be copied in the /Data/StockPackages folder in order to be visible.
Easier steps -> Get your device in bootloader -> Start the tool -> Hit refresh -> go to Stock -> hit open folder -> copy the extracted folder with the name angler-xxxxxx in there, hit F5 or Right-click + Refresh -> you should see the folder in there like in the following screenshot. Thanks @ursa08 for the screenie.
Q: How do I enable Developer options?
- Launch the Settings
- Scroll Down and Tap on About Phone(or About Device)
- Locate the Build Number Section
- Tap on the Build Number Option 7 Times
- Go Back to the Main Settings Page
- Scroll Down and Tap on Developer Options
Q: Hi, i just bought a phone what should i do now?
Well, you firstly need to unlock your bootloader...
Q: What is logcat?
Well, you can pretty much use google for that answer, but to put it short, is that thingy that tells you what is happening behind the scenes of your phone.
It is usually used for debugging and entertaiment(?).
When you report an error/bug to somebody, it will be a blessing to provide a logcat (logfile)!
Q: What is a Custom Recovery and why do i need one?
A custom recovery is that thingy that let's you flash .zip files, use your logic and you wil get it why you need one.
Q:There are others guides/tutorials out there, should i check them instead of this?
If you manage to get things done using this one, no, otherwise yes, note that some could be outdated...
Q:What is sideload and how do I use it?
Sideload is a function from adb that let's you flash a zip file while in recovery directly from your PC.
Please note that you need to be in sideload mode on your recovery before doing this.
To enter sideload mode, in TWRP go to Advanced -> ADB Sideload -> Swipe to sideload

This tool has support only for 4 nexus devices, some features might work, some not, it's all down if the commands that are used by the tool are supported by the other device.
For example all fastboot flashing commands use the command:
Code:
fastboot flash <partition> <file_to_flash>
The same goes for the rest of the commads, I will try to investigate more and see if it's worth it to create a Sam Note 3 package for the tool.
The adb features should work though.
That would be awesome as i run only linux. And cant seem to get odin or heindall to work. Tried multiple times. So if there is something you could cook up. Amazing sauce. Its a att note 3. Either way. This will work great for my n6

Yes, you can unlock the bootloader and flash TWRP recovery with it.
Support to Nougat?

Nougat should work with no problems, I personally used it to flash bootloader, radio and vendor images for Nougat update.
