NOTE: this OP subject was originally "[HELP] ZTE nubia Z7 Max (NX505J) stock ROM v3.09 update report";
- for the "Upgrade to paolothlw8's Unofficial CM12.1 Lollipop v5.1.1 V3 report", see post #22.
- for the Stock v3.19 update, see post #4.
I updated my Nubia Z7 Max from BB72's v1.64 custom KitKat 4.4.2 ROM directly to the latest stock Nubia v3.09, with Lollipop 5.0.
I want to leave here a brief account, so others know this can be done and it is not an overly complicated procedure. But, please, pay attention, because this will completely reformat and factory reset your device -- so, if you want to keep anything on the phone, backup before!
For starters, the downloads and instructions I used (mostly ):
Nubia Z7 Max v3.09 (free registration required for download)
http://www.needrom.com/download/nubia-z7-max-v3-09/
Be sure to access *#7678# dialer menu to enable both ports before and after flashing!
Needrom instructions are quite detailed and accurate, so I'll just summarize the main steps:
Install ZTE mobile USB drivers. (I used 'Drivers All In One Tool By Tigreos')
Download and install 'Nubia Tool Updater V2.0.0' in your Windows computer.
Download 'NX505J_CNCommon_V3.09.rar' file on your computer and unpack.
Run the installed 'Nubia Tool Updater V2.0.0' as administrator (right click...) and select the path were you unpacked NX505J_CNCommon_V3.09.rar.
Watch Needrom's pictures carefully to know when you're ready to proceed (summary picture below, you might need a few tries...).

}
The remaining button is "Open"......
My findings:
- Drivers MUST be updated for this to work, so you'll have to uninstall previous versions;
- The phone must be connected to computer in powered state, before the Updater is run;
- I had two hiccups after installation, because (I thought) the phone didn't boot and got stuck in the Chinese red letters after the boot animation;
- I solved this by connecting phone to computer again, a Chinese message with a counter appeared, and I let it finish (it counted to 21);
- Tigreos tool also provides for TWRP v2.8.6.0 quick installation (reboot required);
- TWRP provides ROOT (reboot required);
- Even after rooting adb doesn't push files (system RO, no ROOT in shell), so I needed an SD card to get GApps on phone;
- This is caused by ROM being a production build (you'll get a message saying thus: "adbd cannot run as root in production builds");
- After you flash GApps via TWRP, setup and get updated busybox from the Play store, as well as [THREAD="1687590"]adbd-insecure[/THREAD] to solve the problem;
- Not all languages are present (I use English) and some features will be presented with Chinese characters -- so, for a smoother experience, some tweaking will be required...
All in all a fast and stable new start for this great phone, which is being let down for the lack of Western locales support.
Bear in mind that various other information sources exist here at the forum, as well as elsewhere; I'll just list a couple here for the benefit of newcomers...
[THREAD="3053880"][Tutorial] [Root] [Upgrade] [4.4-->5.0] ZTE Nubia Z7 Max to Lollipop 5.0[/THREAD]
Very detailed report by user craagz of the upgrade procedure from stock v1.57 (KK 4.4.2) to v2.13 (Lollipop 5.0).
[THREAD="3100542"]Tuto installation rom stock v 3.09 nubia z7 max[/THREAD]
French(!) tutorial by user hayastan06 of installation of the stock ROM v3.09 (Lollipo 5.0)
For further info on the Nubia Z7 Max, search the present Nubia forums (http://forum.xda-developers.com/zte-z7) or check my dedicated index post ([THREAD="2961145"][INDEX] ZTE nubia Z7 Max[/THREAD]).
I thought I'd follow up by posting here some screenshots as well as talking about some of the changes and tweaks I have been doing. So first here are the screen captures of the system details after the upgrade, as well of the AnTuTu benchmark.
System details
AnTuTu Global Score
AnTuTu Comparison Chart
EDIT: list of ROM included mostly Chinese apps I have removed with Titanium Backup without major(!) problems...
Amap.apk
Baidu Map.apk
DianPing.apk
MeiTuan.apk
QQ.apk
Qunar Travel.apk
Sogou Input Method.apk
Sohu TV.apk
Tencent Video.apk
Today's Headline.apk
vip.com.apk
WeChat.apk
Weibo.apk
Mostly Chinese apps I was unable to remove/replace because they caused stuff I need to stop working:
nubia_Music.apk (replaces default Android Music)
nubia_Tms.apk (replaces the default Android browser, but is in fact QQ browser, which I didn't manage to replace with either AOSP or CM default browser).
(!) Be forewarned, though, that there might be unforeseen complications...
Another thing: I seem to have lost the ability to send audio file metadata (filenames, ID3 tags and such) over Bluetooth. If anyone happens to know how to solve, please post. TIA.
Upgrade path to Stock v3.19 successfully completed
As the title implies, I have now upgraded my device to the latest Stock version being offered on Needrom.com.
I lost hours at the beginning because Nubia Upgrade Tool kept giving me the "Internal Modem Error" (see the Italian instructions for solving it here)...
So here's the upgrades list (ATTENTION: serially upgrading appears to be mandatory and you always have to unroot via modded TWRP from v3.15 up):
Stock v3.15 -- http://www.needrom.com/download/nubia-z7-max-v3-15/
Stock v3.17 -- http://www.needrom.com/download/z7-max/
Stock v3.18 -- http://www.needrom.com/download/ota-update-v3-18/
Stock v3.19 -- http://www.needrom.com/download/ota-update-v3-19/
After completion I installed GApps (Pico v5, from first link above) and, for more governors and tweaking options, the NZ7ML kernel v1.3 (the only Lollipop compatible version!).
The final app list (user+system) after GApps installation, updating and debloating (uninstall of every Chinese user app) is at http://pastebin.com/w9DxJMuq.
One of the benefits I am already seeing is improved battery -- only 2% gone after 7 hours, with no screen time...
How do we flash 3.17 over 3.15? The instructions are not clear on Needrom and dont want to end up with a bricked device. Can you please help?

Installation process:
1.-Execute .exe, and install TWRP with option 2.
2.-Unroot phone, this function is in special TWRP.
3.-Flash v3.17

There are two downloads: "Official Stock Z7 Max v.3.17" is the OTA ROM update, and "TWRP special OTA", which is a modded TWRP recovery installer that you need to put on the phone before upgrading.
Copy the first package to your phone storage -- remembering where you put it; for easy retrieval, my advice is to put it at the root of the phone's internal storage.
Unpack the second package to a folder on your computer and execute the only executable you'll find inside as administrator; if the phone drivers are installed and an ADB connection is achieved, upon pressing "2" the upgrade to the modded TWRP recovery will be performed.
Reboot to Recovery and you should see the TWRP recovery v2.8.6.0 modded by Stalence (it will ask for language settings, choose English, as I summon you don't understand Chinese).
Touch the "Advanced" button, then "Stalence Tools" and "Unroot" -- it will tell you if it succeeded; re-rooting is just a matter of choosing the appropriate option.
Return to the initial screen (touch "Home" or press back button until you arrive), touch "Install", locate the OTA ROM update package and swipe to flash.
In case any of these steps shows some error, just reboot to recovery and do it again (repeat the step).
After doing all, reboot to system and be very, very patient, because it will take a long time to finish booting... Done! :fingers-crossed:
and you can also download Official Stock Z7 Max v.3.20 from here (853.1 MB) and just flash with any recovery
Any changelog for v3.20?
Directly updated to 3.20
And what is the procedure for updating to 3.20? Does it require 3.19 or it can be directly installed from 3.15?
I flashed 3.20 over 3.15 using TWRP and its directly updated. Working fine as of now. Yet to see the improvements over 3.15. Thanks all!
hi. can someone help me out and upload the drivers in the phone itself somewhere? all the available drivers on the web are incompatible with my z7 max. the only one that worked was the one inside the phone. when i installed cm 12, apparently i lost the driver too. i would really appreciate it if someone could upload the driver from the virtual cd-rom the z7max creates. thanks.
i've attached it to this post. hopefully it takes the attachment.

Next time, please avoid double-posting like you just did. Better yet, open up a new thread with your request to improve visibility... :angel:
thanks. i apologize for that, i was really frustrated with my phone and in a hurry. i managed to get them after all and installed the new rom (3.15). i just want to highlight something that was mentioned in installation guides, but should be mentioned more than once and with a very big RED FONT!!
disconnect every external hard disk and flash drive from your computer before starting the installation. i almost lost 4 tbs of data on 2 hard disks because i didn't pay attention to this. the app will erase every partition on your external hdd and might create 20-30 partitions on it! and if that happens getting your data back is possible using partition recovery software like testdisk, partition find&mount ...etc.
oops, totally forgot about that. if i'm not mistaken, it was from (NX505J_CNCommon_V2.13) which was the lollipop beta (very unstable).
i have since already updated my phone to v3.15.
v3.15 looks stable so far. from the nubia.cn forums, it seems like anything above 3.15 has been buggy for them (from what my google translate says). so, i have stayed on 3.15.
Amazingly, the best thing so far is that my notifications are all working and battery life does seem to be a bit better. Most of the apps I use also look to be staying resident better and
crashing less.
The built in music player does still seem buggy. Seems to stop/crash quite a bit (especially when I swap over to a game which has music turned off).

As the thread implies, I'm now on v3.19, which I find by far to be the best I have tried (including vanilla stock and BB72 rehashes). Maybe the fact that I run paolothlw8's modded kernel is the key factor here, I don't know.
Now, if only it wasn't bridled with so many Chinese (cr)Apps... :silly:

Someone complained of the same at Adroidiani, so I took the precaution of keeping the Nubia Music APK shared as solution -- you can find it at http://mir.cr/PWWLWUYN...
I haven't tested it, since the version in the current ROM is the best ever for me, but you might want to try it...
And please do tell us if you do.
I am on version 3.15 can I update it directly to v.3.19 or I need to go step by step for updating it

Is that the nubia setup wizard? I don't remember it having UK as a country to select ... I thought it was just language. Which 309 or 315 did you install? I had no issues install 315 from needrom and then using the paranoidandroid link for gapps. Maybe try it again?
also, you don't need to apply gapps right away. try letting the nubia go through setup wizard first. then go the temporary recovery and install gapps later (if you haven't tried that)
Thanks for this guide and your support.
I used it to go from 1.59 ->1.64 ->3.09 ->3.22
Had some time consuming issues along the way (4-5 hours..) - bootloop when going from 1.59 ->1.64 and loosing IMEI when going from 3.09-> 3.22.
the first issue was finally solved by flashing stock ROM from side load and the second issue was solved by extracting the nv.qcn file from the nubia backup folder under C: and writing it to the phone using QPST tools.
So if anyone hit one of these walls..
Does anyone have any issues with the bluetooth and WiFi?
I'm having an issue with the bluetooth where i can't pair things as it doesn't bring up the popup screen to write the PIN.
The WiFi connection is not stable.

Hi Pnin
which parameters did you put into the kernel? (I'm using Trickster mod)
Thanks.
I have a nubia z7 with rom version 2.05 (Android 5 and Nubia UI 3), with google apps working without problems. Even youtube.
It took 3 days to figure out how to do it, without rooting the phone.
But some tools are needed...
I upgraded my phone rom (which came with version 2.26, a modified 1.26), put rom 2.02 then 2.03 and at last 2.05, which is the last one in nubia chinese site.
I used nubia rom updater, for the roms version 2.02 and 2.03 you have to decompress to each folder and point nubia updater to that folder.
The last one (version 2.05), i used option update of the phone.
Then uninstalled every chinese app. Downloaded gapps micro for android 5.0.1 and copy to the internal storage.
Then rebooted the phone with TWRP and installed the zip file. With TWRP root the phone, in advanced menu.
After that, i reboot into android system and made login into google play and updated everything.
It's a google phone now.
I think this should work for Nubia Z7 mini and Nubia Z7 Max
I hope this help someone

hi, i'm Senh0r. I had logged with an old account.
now you can uninstall all chinese apps ,that you don't want.
then copy file gapps to internal storage.
Check if you have port ADB selected, by inserting on dial number *#7678# , if not, select it.
Now run the TWRP, which is in chinese, when the menu show up, choose option 3 and wait for the phone reboot into TWRP.
When you enter in TWRP, on bottom of screen you can choose english language.
After that is only to install the zip file. don't check for signature.
Now it's only need to reboot phone.
To enter on TWRP you need always to run the program to reboot your phone.
Anything ask
greetings
Thanks for that. I got them installed but when I boot the phone I get a google services has stopped and the phone shuts down I'm
Not sure what I did wrong

having the same issue as helobot.
update to 2.05 no problem
But after installing gapps it crashes in the setup phase
any ideas ?
Did you rooted the phone before installing gapps by twrp?
Rooted from twrp, installed gapps, rebooted.
After a few minutes it started, google setup wizard.
It crashes with an exception.
Gonna give it a shot in a few
Call me an idiot, but I didn't make a backup of the delivered stock ROM KitKat 2.26.
Please have you guys an image? I am stuck for good.
And cleaned the cache and dalvik partition too? Mine its working with no problems.
Cleaned cache etc.
I could hit me for being so stupid to forget backing the original ROM up.
I can easily go to a stock Chinese ROM but at least a KitKat Google ROM would be nice.
Señor or anyone, can you provide a image of 2.26?
Unfortunately I didn't backup it either , but soon I will create a zip file with my Rom with Google apps installed.
I will check Nubia site for older roms too.
Getting the hands on an 1.26 is relatively easy, but the googlefied 2.26 seems to be rather hard to find ...

Hi, I have my phone with 2.26, I have rooted it with kingo, if you can provide me a custom recovery I can do a nandroid back up of complete rom.
Hi Steveyknoxville, Señor shared a custom recovery based on twrp and that works very well. I would really appreciate if you could provide us with the 2.26 ROM
The link is in the first posting of this thread.

Hi, I have read that senor twrp does not work on 4.4.2, are you confirming it does. My biggest question I need answered before I do anything is, if I install twrp how do I go back to stock recovery so I can do Ota updates to get to lollipop. Thanks.
Sorry but I can't confirm weather it fully works or not. I followed señor's guide and updated the phone. But if I recall the thread correctly from nubia cn forums the stock ROM should be a slightly modified twrp anyways.
Try just going into the recovery mode.
You should be able to backup the ROM.
Thanks for the invested time.

the site is in spanish unfortunately, I can use google to translate, but do I need to root the device first, then put twrp, then flash?
Hi xterminater07,
As for any other ROM, you have to install a custom recovery as a first thing. There are usually 2 custom recoveries : TWRP and CWM. The x820 only has TWRP (as far as I know of course). So you have to "flash" TWRP before you can install your ROM.
Be cautious : some of the TWRP provided in the links may give you a weird result
Just take the one in the link from the OP and flash it... it should work I guess.
Then reboot into recovery (hold power and volume up while rebooting).
Once rebooted, just follow the on-screen options to install.
Regards.

thank you for the respond nexuspenguin, so flashing the twrp as mentioned would root the device as well? I have delt with prior android devices and you have to do a one click root, then put twrp. I didn't see a root method mentioned by the OP that's why I want to know what is the right steps to do lol...
Hi,
Nope : install TWRP first, root afterwards.
If you install a pre-rooted ROM no need to root.
If not, rooting is quite simple : download latest supersu.zip, transfer it to your phones storage, reboot into recovery (TWRP now !) flash the downloaded .zip... and reboot. You're done
Why use "all-in-one" programs when it's so easy to do it manually ?
Regards.
FRED
P.S. : I flashed the TeamSPAIN 15S that is also given as 100% rooted. But I found out it is not. So, despite what's advertised you may have to install SuperSU again.
Theres two version of teamspain, which one is the "best" and closest to the stock one as possible without any bugs? Also both seems to say spanish focused but english language should be no issue right?

Hi,
I would advise the other version as this one will leave some bloatware from LeTV... unless, of course, you want it
Without any bugs ? You are aware that there's no such thing as a bugfree system, are you
Kidding apart, I am using the other version and I found no bugs after 1 and 1/2 days of use.
Be advised that there's also a third version from Cuoco92 that isn't advertised here (yet) but that you can download on AFH.
All three are very close to stock.
And I must say that I find the EUI quite nice to use even though not as snappy as other ROM's that are much closer to AOSP.
Regards.
nexuspenguin, I did see the cuoco92 latest version on afh. Is that version similar to this and what are the differences? Also can you write the steps on how to put twrp and supersu for this phone in english? I don't want to translate by machine to english and screw up my phone somewhere :\

I just flashed this rom over my stock rom but I seem to lose the System Update app icon on the home screen and can't find it anywhere. Can you show me how to put it back steve_mars or how to update from OTA without that app?
All Custom ROM are modified and OTA can´t work.
And if you rooted phone and/or install TWRP, OTA don´t work either.
Oh so we will just have to wait for someone to put a rooted image of the OTA files or the next version then?
Hello All, I have a problem. I just flash this rom on my x820 but i goot a bootloop after the install all is ok but the phone always reboot maybe someone can help me ?
I have the same problem. I use fastboot and command "fastboot -w" and after that boot normally.
I have the same problem. @rzapsko , you did thar after the install?!
After the bootloop, you juat connected in fastboot mode as run that line to erase data?!
Thank you.
Hello, thank for the answer but can you describe all the procedure? you mean that after running the install and all done you have to open cmd and run fastboot command ?
(sorry for my english) Instal adb drivers. Unzip TWRP from link. Run command line (cmd) and go to this folder. You can use command "CD.." and "CD <folder name>" to change folder. Turn on phone to fastboot mode (power and vol-). Connect to PC. Write in cmd fasboot -w.

Hello and i wish you all a good Day and i really appreciate the time you are giving to help me.
But before i Start, here the Data about my Phone:
Name
Huawei Shot X / Honor 7i runs actually on Android 5.1.1 & EMUI 3.1
CPU
Qualcomm® MSM8939™, Octa-core 1.5 GHz
Operation System
HUAWEI Emotion UI 3.1(on Android™ L)
Root: Yes
Bootloader: Unlocked
TWRP: Yes
So, this gona be a little bit complicated as you can see in the Titel that i got 4 Problems at the same time so i complety messed up. I'm sitting here 2 Days and Night trying to work on my Phone and im so desperate that i created a Account here.
And the site also says, no low quality Questions here and i guess that's not a low quality question because theres less then 5 Theards/Questions about my Phone. Another Point wich makes it so difficul to can fix all by myself. But to get all things clear i will tell what i did and how it started, because im still confused after Hours of Searching and downloading.
It first started whit Pokemon Go I wanted to Install Xposed on my Huawei Shot X, so i can Play the Game while im in Brazil spending my Holidays. But the First Problem was, that the Modules was not compatible whit my Xposed. I had Problems such like XposedBridge.jar. Or when I read about that the Version 2.7 would fix it i had a Problem that Xposed was not compatible whit my processor Architektur. So i searched till i found those links:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/guide-workaround-running-xposed-t3338765
And especially before my Phone nuked i followed this Link (Click on "Link").
I already noticed that to Install Xposed on my Device will be Tricky on a Huawei, it's not like on a Samsung where Hunderts of Tutorials and solutions ect. Fast i noticed i need TWRP. Sadly i found nothing really matching whit my Phone i downloaded over here, over there img 3.0.0 all didnt work well or not correctly till after Hours i feelt trolled finding Twrp in the App Store. And while my Search i found a Guide giving me a Link how to Install TWRP on my Huawei Shot X. They linked me to a Download for TWRP Huawei G8 wich i did. The Download didn't worked but the App on my Phone did pretty well an installed Version 3.0.0 for Huawei G8 (like the Guide sad). I trusted the Guide because theres no Guide, especially for my Phone. So it looked like the Huawei G8 might be the only and closes Choice. I fail to install a File Manager from a Indonesian Devoloper and i know there are newer Version of TWRP but i didn't wanted to run risks. I had Install the Huawei Driver on my Pc and runed ADB but i can't remember in wich oder anymore because of the huge stress. TWRP started succesfully, at least that but when i noticed something is missing, i wanted to move some files for to install Xposed correctly. Andoird didn't started anymore . It wasn't a actually "Bootloop". TWRP Starts till now all the Time and it's functional but i didn't get "into my Android". I saw some Codes ect that i can entre in CMD , something about ADB that would make it possibel to get into Android again. After all, nothing was deleted, the Data was still there (I made a Back Up on my PC before, so no Problem). But there was no was to get into my System. So i tryed to take this as a Chance to install Android again, but better as Android 6.0 and i found this Update (Click on Update). This Update didn't work i get a Red Clored Text and the last Zip i tried to Install Android 5.1.1 for Huawei ShotX EMUI 3.1 fom the Huawei Site, TWRP sad the Files are corupt. And i aslo tried a Guide from "HighOnAndroid", explainding how to install Android 6.0 from TWRP, wich didn't work too. Im finding no probly ROM wich match. I finding nothing really compatible or working. Not a simpel way to install Android on my Phone im just stuck in TWRP. I hope for someone how give me straight/save links for my Huawei Shot X about how to Install Android 5.1.1 & EMUI 3.1 and if it's possibel to install maybe Android 6.0. And of course, the Reason why this Chaos just started how to install Xposed. Perfectly would be to Connect my Phone to my PC and a Programm wich simply installs Android. Thank's for helping and you time.
PS: A really other Important Point, theres no Data on my Phone anymore Expect TWRP and some failed to install Zips.
PSPS: 2.6 Xposed wasnt working to..
No anyone?
At least tell me how to install Android from TWSP
dear friend.you must flash stock recovery through fastboot then install stock rom

I will try it very soon after unlocking the bootloader and instaling TWRP.
I can always get back to stock, right?(how to do so? will it work from the hisuite ?)
this is exactly what I need
thank you so much
just a question: this is a systemless root, right?
what's the difference between the 2 versions of TWRP?
Yes you can back to Stock.
Install B332 via Twrp and make the B350 ota again,or Backup your Stockrom in Trwp before flash this Rom!
Yes systemless root.
Twrp is newer and older version,the newer version can all Backup the older not

Hi letschky,
Just installed this and looking around, so far so good

I'll play around for a few days and report any bugs/issues if I find any.
Also no need to apologize for your bad English........ It's a hell of a lot better than my Austrian/German
Danke schoen mein freund.

Hi! For me your rom is a good rom! only please, its possible to reinsert a logo 3g 4g H+....? and...I forgot a question: i have uninstalled Yellow pages, the yellow pages are all in Chinese language and are useless. and i have uninstalled huawei home launcher because it's very invasive and i have installed nova launcher, the best for me. after this modify, for me this device is perfect, stable and very fast! excuse me for bad english but I don't know this language. I studied English twenty years ago for only 3 years at school .... help meeee
Nice ROM! But there are no Google apps installed. Also whatsapp notifications don't work. When i open Whatsapp i only get all the messagers. Did I do something wrong? On the first boot i had a screen with Chinese and the word GOOGLE in the middle.
I did have it freeze on me a couple of times and refuse to open a couple of games (Boom Beach and Clash of Clans).
I did a full factory reset on Sunday evening and have not as yet had any other problems, Whatsapp is working fine for me, also 3 different google accounts running fine on my phone too :good:
I also can't not open tradetracker, zanox and partners.webmasterplan links. Everytime i get error ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED
Oké i installed the rom again and now all the Google apps are installed. I think something went wrong on the first install. I'm going to test Whatsapp notifications now.
I still have problems with tradetracker, zanox, webmasterplan and linksynergy links. Everytime i get this error ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED on every browser (chrome, firefox ect.). Anyone know how to fix this? Because i use this for my work
I have the same problem ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED. Why? Whithout this problema rom is perfetto.

The problem was the hosts file in system/ect. I used the app Adaway and downloaded the latest hosts file. The problem is gone now
Whatsapp notifications also work now, no need to freeze phone manager anymore. Nice rom letschky!
