ZTE Nubia Z5s wrong Gapps - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Well, it seems like I have ****ed up trying to flash Gapps onto my brand new Nubia Z5s (not the mini version)
The first thing I did was rooting it (using Vroot or Iroot) which worked perfectly. It installed Superuser just fine
Then I had some problems getting a custom recovery.
After ****ing up my recovery by flashing with the chinese tool most people seem to use, I finally got a working english CWM (using the program depicted in the first image of this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2749259).
At this point I should have made a backup, but I did not. Retarded me installed flashify and used it to flash Gapps. That's where it went wrong. When the phone rebooted, I got flooded with error messages about google processes that had stopped. I did manage to get into my settings screen, where I don't get flooded. From there I can alter USB debugging and all that stuff.
I then made a backup from CWM recovery of this situation, which is the one I currently am in. I did try to flash another Gapps zip over the Gapps I flashed with flashify, but that just sent my device into bootloop. I got out of bootloop by restoring the backup I made. I also tried flashing MIU (http://www.needrom.com/download/nubia-z5s-miui-v5-2/). It looked fine for the first minute, but then it suddenly started rebooting at random, and it turned out most apps woulden't open. So I restored to the backup once again.
Could anyone please help me figure out how to get Gapps working? I frankly dont care on which rom, as long as it doesn't have buggs (The stockrom didn''t have any either).

Topic can be closed or deleted, already solved the issue:
I flashed a rom from Needrom,. which is the stock Nubia OS with Gapps built in. Works perfectly now!

After several tries still in bootloop - HTC One X

Hi Community,
I have a massive problem and I hope you can help me.
I rooted my HTC One X successfully and tried to flash custom roms on it which kind of worked. I put the zip folder on the internat sd card and flashed it without flashing the boot.img.
Finnaly I found out to do that, flashed the boot.img but while installing the ROM the problem code/status 7 appeared and I had to restart the phone in order to put the right rom onto the phone, which i had on my computer.
But while booting, the phone just got stuck in bootloop showing the HTC logo.
I already tried quite a lot of stuff to rescue my phone, for example to restore the nandroid backup - didnt work, flash another backup onto phone - still bootloop, flashed a new rom with boot.img - still bootloop.
The only solution i could find was to unroot the device and flash the stock rom onto it.
Is that really my last resort or is there another way?
Thanks for your help.
I just saw that I posted it in the wrong forum. If a admin could please replace it, i tried to delete it but it didn't work.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

[SOLVED] Please help me I've messed up my rom AND lost root

Hello I was having problems in backing up data in nandroid using cwm recovery. Some nice guy suggested me to change my recovery so I did.
Now i have messed up real bad, i flashed a philz recovery which I had used in a stock based rom and the backup was successful but then the phone couldn't boot up. So i restored the boot patrition from a previously made backup. This way i successfully booted up my phone and got previous recovery. So far so good. Now i knew that the problem is in recovery. I also had a raw kernel file which I had used to flash the cm11 rom so i flashed that kernel. But then i restated device to find out that i have now lost root access. I tried flashing super su via raw kernels twrp recovery but I saw no effect despite it being flashed. I cannot flash the recovery because the curreny twrp recovery crashes when i try to flash that.
Current situation is that I am getting constant unlimited, system process is crashed, errors and I can see no signal from mobile operator. Wifi is working fine.
Please help me, my phone is almost unusable with this error but I have access to all the apps, functions etc. in case you can suggest me to use it.
UPDATE:
Tried to flash a latest version of cm11 and now booted up correctly. root checker says I am rooted.
got latest cwm as well
Now I need to take backup to see if the initial problem is there or not.
As the issue highlighted in this thread is solved, I will mark this as solved and will reply to future problems (related to not being able to backup /data) in the following thread:

[Help] Completely Messed my Phone Up lol...

Hello,
These past two days have not been a good day for my phone lol. Some background:
BEFORE:
I had a 4.4.4 Custom ROM [Forgot the name...]
TWRP: 2.5.0.2
AFTER:
I clean flashed http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...m-cyanogenmod-12-0-nightlies-verizon-t2998057
I cleared cache + Dalvik after the flash and it asked me if I wanted to fix root (From what I read before, you're never supposed to press Fix, rather you're supposed to prses Do not Fix and you'll still keep your root.
However, I accidentally pressed Fix Root and Now I lost my root. The ROM I flashed is glitchy because from what I read is because I have TWRP 2.5.0.2.
Now I'm stuck on this ROM, I have no idea how to upgrade to the latest TWRP and don't know how to get my root back . [Can't get TWRP Manager because I don't have Google apps (I tried flashing the GAPPS by Paranoid but it keeps crashing because I think it's the outdated TWRP)]. I tried to download TWRP manager on my phone via another site, but it doesn't install on my phone for some weird reason.
Thank you,
Jerry
Download, install and run the towelroot.apk file. This will root your phone, takes about 2 minutes

Are you able to boot into TWRP recovery again? When you were in TWRP, did you do wipes first before tryin to install a ROM?
Yes I did the wipes, so now I do the twrp flash only that nothing happens, type appears until the installation all right but at the moment of starting the twrp it erases the screen and the blue led
Try EUI or LineageOS that I have linked below. Both are for the x829:

It might be helpful if you make of video showing what you are attempting, and what is happening on the screen of your phone too.
You might want to reinstall coco twrp. Also make sure the rom you flash has downloaded fully(that happened to me a few times, corrupt downloads). If rom file is OK it should flash correctly, otherwise you get the blue led

Stuck on old version of MIUI. Root not gained. How to move forward?

Hi everyone, for quite some time I never had any issues upgrading mu phone MIUI, but recently the update process keeps failing, with Recovery Project 3.0.2-x complaining that the image zip (miui_MI5SPlusGlobal_9.6.27) is corrupted.
I started looking a bit more into it and it turns out my phone doesn't show as correctly rooted, so I was getting ready for doing a full root procedure, I backed everything up, get back to some tutorials and it seems like I should use TWRP and SuperSU.
It seems like SuperSU has been discontinued, so now I am kinda hanging, not being sure at all what I should do :S I would ideally want to upgrade to the latest MIUI
Any tip?
First Flash latest recovery.
https://dl.twrp.me/natrium/twrp-3.3.1-0-natrium.img
Download this latest Miui rom
https://sourceforge.net/projects/xi...5SPlus_V11.0.2.0.OBGCNXM_v11-8.0.zip/download
Do the wipes and install it.
For root you should flash magisk.
