Yes, I tried. Its not working.
Is there any other way. I am desperate. It doesnt allow to move the Apps to SD card. There is no way. Locked in 4GB

I have a z820 in need of root as well. I've tried everything, including the link up there, and so far.....nope. Nothing. No apps to SD for me either.

I'm so mad because I really tried everything even a computer won't let me tried everything there to like why would the make a zte that can't even move your games or pictures or music to your SD card knowing danm well everybody gone need like we only got 4g that's nothing so what are we so posted to do delete stuff that we like.to trade for the other that we really don't need **** I'm pissed right now I know y'all are to but if anybody finds something please send me the info or con me by [email protected] thank you:good:

Needs update
This Phone really needs an update, it reboots and sucks, we can't even get into fastboot or anything to try to unlock the bootloader someone needs to make this possible because who in the hell uses only 4gb of storage, apps are so big and you can only download like 3 apps then you have to get rid of something if you want another app and its dumb so please someone..HELP US :crying:

Throwing my post up here so I can follow. Need root bad on this thing. I am using lite versions of every app. Lol

Same problem w/ ZTE obsidian..tCan't move to SD card. Anybody figure somethcing out yet?

I've gotten Kingroot to attempt to root it once and the results varied. Usually got 16% but the highest was almost 30% but I can't even get kingroot to even root it anymore.

The phone is not going into fastboot at all. I think the bootloader is locked. The phone will never be rooted.

I might of found a way, but it's untested so, proceed at your own risk, I am not responsible if your phone becomes bricked.
Enable developer mode and tick "OEM Unlocking" in the developer menu
Download SuperSU update zip from Chainfire's site and put it on your sdcard (internal won't work)
Power off your phone and hold power and volume up
Select recovery, wait for the android with the lid open to show up
Hold power and volume up for a couple seconds and let go
A menu should pop up, if not try again until it does
Select "update from sdcard"
Select the SuperSU zip
Let it flash the zip (shouldn't take long)
Choose reboot
See if SuperSU is installed and test that it works
Again, this is untested and would need a couple of people testing it to make sure it works flawlessly, so if this worked, please post that it did.

Nope. Thank you though.

You have to hold down power and vol up for like 2 seconds when you get to the dead android, then you'll get the recovery menu.

When I try to install the update package, I get 'opening update package' followed after less than a second by 'installation aborted'.
I powered down from the Developer Options screen with OEM unlock turned on when trying to update - it appears to turn off during boot as it is off again on restart.
Any suggestions? I looked at the logs that are visible from the recovery screen but they did not seem to have anything useful. Are there logs I can retrieve via ADB to see what the issue is?
My phone has build B18.

OEM Unlocking is always on for me even after restarts but I haven't tried to flash SuperSU yet. You might wanna get a logcat while doing it and post it here to see if anyone knows what the problem is. I have an older build of the phone (B03) but I dunno if it matters or not.
EDIT: Also every new Kingroot build allows you to attempt to root it for like 2 days and then it just can't for some reason but the thing with 18% still happens.

The logcat I am familiar with is in ADB. The only way I can find to access the phone from recovery with ADB is to select the flash from ADB option, which puts the phone in sideload mode where you can't pull data off. I was unsure if trying to load the ZIP that way would brick the phone so I haven't tried it.
I also tried using Fastboot and it doesn't recognize the phone at any time.
Is there another way to capture what is happening with the update?
I tried selecting restart in bootloader from the recovery menu with the phone connected to the PC. It stayed at the ZTE splash screen for over 10 minutes but neither fastboot nor ADB was able to communicate with it. I tried various key combinations without effect and finally ended up pulling the battery. Maybe it just froze up during boot for some reason.
I have tried every one-touch root I can find, none of them work. All the manual guides start with unlocking the bootloader - which I can't find any info on for this model. Based on the partition info, it's definitely locked: it has 27 (!) partitions including names like seccfg and oemkeystore. Is this normal for a lollipop device?

[Q] Cannot find USB Driver

I have a BLU Quattro 4.5 android device and when I try to connect via USB Debug mode and run ADB Device it will not find my phone. I have searched high and low in order to locate the driver with no luck. The generic USB driver from google won't even work. I have even run emulator from the phone and when I type: pm set-install-location 2, it comes back with Killed and then back to command prompt. When I type: pm get-install-location it comes back as 0[auto]. My phones main memory is 1 gb and 1.5 internal usb memory. With all of the main system apps updated on the main drive, the phone cannot handle ANY other apps, even when I put apps on the usb memory it is very sluggish. I need help in trying to install and run all of the apps from the external sd card and just have the system apps running on the main disk. I would also like any help in finding the driver needed to access the phone in ADB.

Good news! I just bought the same phone, and I'm waiting on delivery as we speak. From the reviews I've read so far this phone delivers the most bang for the buck. I just hope that we'll be able too root it soon. How do you like it so far?

I have one as well and was able to root it with the latest bin4ry tool! Hopefully Blu will enhance their customer support as they gain more popularity and release some source code or dev tools for the phone. Or at least, since it's rooted, the device can eventually gain support from any devs.
Kah,
Can you post root instructions for us, please?
Sorry, I would've posted before but I wasn't sure if that would move the thread off track. It was very easy actually:
Make sure adb recognizes the device (mine said 123ABCDEF... or something like that for some reason. It doesn't matter apparently).
- Also I'm using windows 7 and after allowing the few default drivers to install, it worked instantly. ( I believe. I do remember messing around with some other software, but I think that was in hopes of finding a root tool. If you have any issues, I can post the names of other software I tried. The OP's method could possibly work too)
I downloaded Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v23.
- there's a new version out now, but I would expect it to work as well
I choose the normal mode and followed the directions.
- If I remember correctly, it gives you the option to install superuser or super su. I chose superuser, and it worked. But after using it for a bit, it gave me lots of issues with root privileges, so I installed super su from the market and I haven't had an issue since.
Any Information posted in this thread is Great!
I don't mind taking this off track of what the original thread. I like it that it is progressing the way it is, helps me out with other questions and anyone else that starts off with my problem probably wants additional information on what else could be done with these phones.

I am still having issues with ram and touchscreen when main storage location gets full. It becomes very unresponsive and the touchscreen becomes very sluggish. Some things I cannot move to the external sd card and all the installed apps still get installed on primary drive even after changing default install location. I need to figure out how to install and run everything, including the android os.

Try using Mounts2SD..
I doubt I'll get much help on this, but I'll give it a shot. I just got my Quattro 4.5 today, and tried to root it with Bin4ry. It never did the first reboot, it just turned the phone off. After a few minutes I turned it back on still connected to USB, Bin4ry tried to finish, but gave a permission denied error on the superuser apk. Now my phone is in continuous boot loop, it gets to the lock screen, but says Go Laucher and system UI has stopped, then reboots. Is this thing bricked? Holding volume down and power just goes to a modem download screen, but no USB connection or anything. :crying:

I'm sorry to hear than man. Which version of Bin4ry did you use? You could try quickly using adb to boot into recovery mode while the phone is still in the process of booting. You'd have to keep sending
Code:
adb reboot recovery
until adb recognizes the device. Hopefully, it'll restart into recovery before it crashes. Not sure if it'll work, but it's an idea.

Everything is fixed! I figured out how to get into recovery. I was able to do a factory reset from there and everything came back, actually maybe better. Then I found an old version of Bin4ry, v15, and tried again. This time it worked perfectly. This phone is pretty awesome, I just wish there was developer support for it.

Great! How'd you manage to get into recovery mode despite the boot loop? In case anyone else runs into the same issue.

Hold volume up and power until it turns on. As soon as the screen changes to green, I let go of the power button and keep holding the volume up button until it's in recovery mode. It seems the power button release has to be timed right or else it just sits on the green screen, or powers off again. It takes a couple of tries for me. I probably did 10 factory resets last night before finally getting it rooted, lol. The built in recovery has an option to flash from external storage, kind of makes me wonder how easy this phone would be to get CWM working. Of course, the real problem is getting developers to write the custom ROMs for it. The only thing this $230 phone is missing from its $600 cousins is 4G LTE, but on Tmobile it doesn't even matter right now. It's still blazing fast even on stock with no overclock, I can't imagine how much more awesome it would be with a custom rom.

Can anyone post a link of where I'll find the proper drivers? It just shows BLU with an exclamation in my Device Manager. The PDANET trick did not work as it won't detect the device. - and if I can get this working, I'll post an actual tutorial for it.
If anyone could post an update.zip of the original rom that would be fantastic. - and clockwork 6 will run on our devices with some work. but right now, mine is a brick, it still has recovery but the stock rom is effed.
I'm in the same situation. I deleted my contacts.apk in hopes of replacing it with a stock version, now it's stuck in a boot loop, and factory reset doesn't help.
Alright guys, I hit the jackpot. I have CM 10.1 working on my Quattro 4.5. It all began when I read somewhere on the xda forums that the Quattro 4.5 and k-touch v9 are essential the same phone. I said before, my phone was bricked so I figured I do some more research and see what I could do. Turns out that person as right. I found a website ( http://www.needrom.com/phone-roms/k-touch/k-touch-v9/ ) that has 3 roms for the v9, CM 10.1, MIUI 3.4.5, and CM 10, and instructions to install them. I decided to take a leap of faith and follow the directions given for CM 10.1. The installation directions for custom recovery CWM 6.0.1.1 worked perfectly - only problem is after you've installed the recovery, the menus are in Chinese.
Once again, My phone was bricked and essentially completely erased. If your phone isn't bricked, it should be fine as long as you do a factory reset before. I would suggest doing this before installing the CWM recovery because I have no clue how to do the reset using the Chinese menu.
I downloaded the CM 10.1 rom from the website above and gapps for 4.2.2 as well (you can find this with google). If you're using one of the other roms, obviously make sure you're using the proper gapps version.
ADB works while in recovery so use this to push the zips to the phone. I say this because I've discovered the sd card directory changes depending if your phone is bricked or not (i.e. /emmc vs /sdcard).
Flash the rom zip, then gapps - select the 2nd option in the main menu then in the following menu, the 4th option. This should lead you to the directory containing your zip files. Choose the appropriate one, and let the CWM work its magic. ( also from messing around I can also tell you the first option in the main menu is to reboot)
Once you've reboot, everything should work perfectly - WIFI, bluetooth, brightness, camera, video recording, audio, microphone, not a single problem except the volume being much louder than before. It's amazing. I have straighttalk's $30 plan, so I'm still stuck with a dumbphone until I bump up to the unlimited everything at the end of the cycle, so I can't test the phone radio, but I would expect it to work considering everything else does as well. Let me know if I left something out. I would test the other roms, but I'm so happy and content with my phone working again, I don't want to go through the effort just yet.
I found a way to create an English recovery that works from the Chinese version. Just replace the recovery.img provided with this one. Here's the link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/5y6r9gvspvouhbo/recovery.img I don't think this should cause any issues because it hasn't for me, but remember you are using this at your own risk. Though if an issue does arise, I'll try my best to help.
Install with English Recovery?
Did you install with the English recovery, because I am stuck at CM10.1 boot screen installing with the English recovery.

How to fix security error on boot LG9

I hit a wall with this issue. After rooting and trying to install a new rom, I am getting the security error on the LG logo. I can access updater with vol+ and insert usb, but I am stuck on how to restore anything or access boot menu. Any suggestions? The computer no longer seems to be able to access the phone as a device via command prompt.
Thanks in advance!

I searched but could not decipher a clear way to fix the problem. This is what I did to fix it.
Open LG Mobile Update (Make sure you have internet on)
Input MEID (located behind battery)
Connect phone to computer via USB in S/W upgrade mode (Vol+ then insert USB)
Let LG download and install phone recovery
NOTE: Recovery stopped at 4% install, but just leave it alone, and it will install correctly. It never went past 4%
NOTE: This will return your phone to factory settings like the day you got it, so you will have to re-root if you use this method.
There may be a way to fix this without losing root, but this was the only way I could figure out.

Do you have a download link for the updater that asks for the IMEI? My LG Mobile Updater only asks for phone model.
Also, am I supposed to be doing a regular software update or "upgrade recovery" option?

bro make sure you have unlocked bootloader if you haven't
check the android development forum you will get scripts to put phone in fastboot.
unlock the bootloader
flash CWM recovery
download nanadroid back up for your phone model. from general section.
copy it to ext sdcard, and restore your phone via cwm reovery.
LG's flashing software is just pain to use. use CWM to restore your L9/

Connect the phone without battery to computer and install fast boot drivers for omap chipset. Again check the dev section " how to install fast boot drivers"
Unlock the darn boot loader
Flash CWM recovery
Restore via nandroid back .
Offline flash method is bit completed and may not work every time
After trying to restore a nandroid backup via CWM, phone is hard-bricked. Sent to service, where they changed (mother)board.
Just for those, who lost their faith (in LG9) - when you see 'security error' on each boot (like I saw yesterday) after flashing CWM on not unlocked bootloader and, after stock ROM flashing, you see dead android with exclamation heart outside - it is normal, and it is still OK - thanks to bootloader being locked
- u can use any good method to flash stock ROM back - I have used this program combined with official LG Mobile Supprt Tool
- I have turned phone off (by battery removing for a moment)
- kept Volume up pressed when connecting to USB - I had no message that any phone is connected - I didn't bother
- flashed stock (20o in my case)
- saw 'dead' android with its exclamation heart outside - bothered for a moment
- removed battery to restart phone
- I have found that all is working :laugh: back
- rooted with Kingo in a minute
- then a step u can omit - I passed the whole procedure again, as I'm faster then smarter
All done with W8/64-bit and my 10cm nokia usb cable, which I found the best in flashing when some longer or 'filtered' cables do not see the phone
I recently switched phones(both same model optimus fuel due to loose heaphone connection) long story short all my info is on 1st phone(important texts/phone numbers) I only have one battery to share between the two phones(wasn't huge deal!) I could just put battery back in my old phone if I needed info from an old text ect! today I put battery back in and tried to turn it on all it does is blink on and off the screen with Lg logo and security error comes up(won't go anywhere else??) can't understand how all of a sudden this happened sitting around with no battery in it nor was it jarred gotten wet ect?? any help appreciated call or text me at(814)493-7199 Jim thanks

Just for those, who lost their faith (in LG9) - when you see 'security error' on each boot (like I saw yesterday) after flashing CWM on not unlocked bootloader and, after stock ROM flashing, you see dead android with exclamation heart outside - it is normal, and it is still OK - thanks to bootloader being locked
- u can use any good method to flash stock ROM back - I have used this program combined with official LG Mobile Supprt Tool
- I have turned phone off (by battery removing for a moment)
- kept Volume up pressed when connecting to USB - I had no message that any phone is connected - I didn't bother
- flashed stock (20o in my case)
- saw 'dead' android with its exclamation heart outside - bothered for a moment
- removed battery to restart phone
- I have found that all is working :laugh: back

Can someone answer what flashing does NOT mean.
1) It does NOT wipe your user data, correct?
2) It means fix the OS to make the phone start up (without affecting user data), correct?
3) I see people give advice to flash or use S/w recovery tool. But I need confirmation that it doesnt factory wipe or delete user data.
4) Or please tell me what method I should do to preserve the internal SD card, or harvest it, or if there is a way to connect the cord in a certain [phone mode] so I can download the data from a phone that wont start (logo loop).
Thanks.
Oh, you cited me and if u mean LG L9 - I do not remember exactly now, it was a short adventure. There is no general answer to your questions 1 - 3, it depends on the data organization in the system. As far as I remember it was OK for the given procedure, but not for sure . maybe someone else can help. And good but too late for you advice is to make copies of all important data and settings before u try to change anything in your system.

LG G Stylo Secure Booting Error [Error Code 1003]

I recently rooted my Lg G stylo (Metro). I was messing around with the Clockwork Mod Recovery. Long story short, I had to reboot into recovery but I keep getting a "Secure Booting Error" "Error code 1003". It keeps restarting over and over again and the same message keeps popping up. The screen doesn't pass the logo, it just shuts down after the error message shows up. repeat
There is no way to access the homescreen or anything. I trying to factory reset by holding the VOLUME DOWN + POWER KEY. It works. I get a menu that says Perform a factory reset , [Yes/NO]. When i click yes, the reset begins but after a while it shuts down and continues to repeat the same message. "Secure booting Error". "Error Code 1003". I have also been able to acces download mode where the screen would say firmware update/Usb. But idk what to do after that. Im pretty sure its not bricked since it still turns on.
Did you unlock the bootloader before you rooted or did you use one-click rooting apps to root your phone?
I have the same problem

As a new owner of an LG G Stylo MS631 (the Metro PCS model) I had the same issue just yesterday when working with GameTheory's Katana ROM and he pointed out that when the Secure Booting Error Code 1003 shows up it's because you have to go into the Developer Options (tap the build version 7 times under Settings - About phone - Software Info, back out two steps and then find the new setting just above About phone) and check the box next to "Enable OEM unlock" - this doesn't unlock the bootloader but it does allow you to use tools like TWRP without hassles or some of the reboot to recovery apps.
If you're getting the error and you can't get past it in any respect, you're going to need to flash the factory KDZ to get it truly useful again. That's what I ended up doing because there simply was no other way to get recovery or anything else working.
Flash the KDZ back to pure stock, go into the Developer Options and enable that option (Enable OEM unlock) and then go about rooting/flashing TWRP/etc.
Good luck...

Hello, I just soft brick my MS631 this morning. I had the phone rooted perfectly fine withthe katana ROM. Then, I stupidly use the reboot recovery option that is baked into the ROM withough developer options enabled and OEM chec (I forgot). Now, I get the looping Secure Booting Error 1003. If, I do the factory reset step (hold power and vol down) I get to the factory reset options, but when I select YES, it'll go through the loop again. HELP please, as I A) cant afford another phone right now and B) don't want to go back using my Windows 640 LTE phone with MetroPCS.

I did a similar thing. Go to HERE and follow GameTheory's unbrick guide. If you have problems downloading the KDZ like I did, then try getting it HERE
I actually did GT steps right after this post. Im now back on Katana and learned from my mistakes lol
I accidentally used king root without developer mode enabled
I also bricked my phone to the point of it being unusable. I am running on boost mobile and I am using android marshmallow 6.0. My phone said it was rooted after using the 1 Click root app and I went to start it and it now says 'security ERROR MODDED 1003'. I am stressed out at this point and I have reset it via developer menu about 3 times to no avail. I am familiar with rooting and roms but I'm not really used to using code. I'm stock everything and I am running on Boost mobile. If anyone can find a boost rom for me to use it may be possible to put my phone in download mode. I do have an sd card if it is needed to load a zip on. Please help me get my phone booted again! I believe a sprint KDZ may work but I can not find one for download anywhere. Thanks !
This may happened to me too. I am on the Boost version as well. I used the king root app to root the phone then I tried to install the adaway app. When the app told me to reboot the phone, I clicked okay but I hit the secure bootloop. I didn't even try to install a recovery. How do I fix this?!?!?!

What if you cant get the phone to do anything outside of the boot loop?

[HELP] Error Mode Boot loop -No Access to fastboot/adb/recovery

Hi hello
So here’s a head scratcher I hope someone can help me with that won’t involve replacing my main board.
Got myself the p20 lite (ANE-LX1 C432) - Single Sim.
I unlocked the bootloader with Huawei just before they stopped handing out the codes. All was good and happy with the world.
Rooted with Magisk and Was busy messing around With Termux, Linux deploy, Mobile Terminal and some pretty basic stuff. I’ve been out of the android scene for a while so was getting reacquainted with the scene.
Anyway. I was messing around in the terminal in a root shell just fixing basic permissions after messing up my termux environment as root. Phone randomly rebooted (I must’ve messed with the wrong folder -no idea which) came back on and my IMEI and baseband were gone.
No worries, I thought. Happened tonnes of times with my previous Devices (looking at you Samsung) just a quick restore or flash and all will be happy again.
Yeah, not quite.
Note that up until this point I hadn’t touched the system partition (probably besides the mobile terminal mishap -no idea)
So over the last week or so I have tried everything. Restore from Twrp backup. Flashed stock through fastboot, through erecovery. Those flashed ok but didn’t fix it.
Putting numerous different update.app FULL & OTA updates in dload folder on SD and internal all failed. Only used my builds version of course and only ones firmware finder deemed compatible/available
Then I got desperate (read: stupid) Decided to take the unpacked firmware files and flash whichever ones twrp would let me. First tried just the modem files. Didn’t help. Then just went through the list and flashed all I could.
I think the kicker came in when I installed the Trustfirmware.img because once I did that I rebooted and now I was stuck in an endless boot loop. No way to get into recovery. Not with their ton combo nor adb/fastboot.
I still had access to fastboot at this point at least and started doing every single thing suggested all over the net just trying to get back to stock.
Tried the unbrick option on The Huawei Multi-Tool. Flashed ok. Phone still wouldn’t boot. Did it a few times with 3 approved versions. Nothing. Only access to fastboot otherwise I was in a boot loop with error mode error no 15 and the verification failure (Attached below)
Last thing I tried after reading online was to relock my boot loader and flash stock. So I locked it with Huawei Multi-Tool. Reboot......
Now I don’t even have access to fastboot. My PC’s (windows and Linux) don’t even acknowledge it and holding volume down in all the weird and wonderful ways and times does nothing. All I get is startup Huawei Logo, Error Mode as per pic Below and then reboot. That’s it.
I’m assuming it’s trying to do a factory reset after relocking the bootloader (if it even locked properly, can’t check) but it can’t get into recovery/erecovery. I dunno ?
That’s my essay of where I’m at. Warranty is already void so not an option and I don’t want to buy a new mainboard (may as well buy a new phone).
So here I am. Is this my life now or does anyone have any magic tricks to possibly suggest?

Thanks for this.
The battery discharged fully about two days ago.
I haven’t tried plugging it in and out as/if it turns on immediately (though even though it shows dead without charger it still comes on immediately).
I’m gonna get a weaker lower amp charger and see if that maybe helps. Fml ?
***UPDATE***
Been at it for hours. Battery is completely flat. But h second I plug it in the the Black Huawei logo comes up ten a few seconds later it’s on the same error screen for a little longer then boot loops like that constantly.
The error isn’t the same as the post in that link though. And I am FRP unlocked.
Eh.

I guess your previous error was related to ramdisk...
Now what is your current situation?
-What error is showed in the Error mode?
-Can you reach FASTBOOT&RESCUE MODE menu?
-What is your current recovery?

As it stands I cannot enter fastboot or recovery mode. Update from SD also doesn’t do anything. Battery is completely discharged. And if I leave it on the charger it doesn’t charge, only boot loops.
So with all that the ONLY thing this phone does now is:
- Starts up Showing Huawei logo
- Error Mode Screen with Func No: 15 (bl31 image) & Error No: 1 (security verify failed)
- Reboots
Ths happens whether it’s plugged into the pc’s usb or the charger. Tried all combinations of buttons too.
It has stock recovery as I flashed that back when trying to revert back to stock.
I lost access to fastboot after I locked the bootlaoder again using the Huawei Multi Tool. It’s like it trying to do the factory wipe that it usually would after locking/unlocking the bootloader but is unable to due to the error mode screen.

I see, it is really bad
My last hope is to be able to do a forced Firmware upgrade. Press power button and VOL + and VOL- simultaneously. Do you see the same as the attached image?

Ah man, I wish it would even do that. It makes no attempt to even pretend to see the sd card update. If I hold all the buttons in it still only comes up with the error mode and reboots.
I popped it open and connected a charger up battery to see if that would help but it doesn’t.
Do you maybe know the pin layout on the inside or know where I could get schematics? Been looking everywhere.
I’m almost done building my own Jtag box and am hoping to bring it back to life by writing straight to the damn thing.

That is sad!!!
With JTAG and schematics stuff I cannot help you.
What I found recently and it was new for me (I didn't tested yet) is a possibility to install firmware via "dload" folder, but to start installation the stock recovery have to be full functional.
If I found something interesting for you I'll post here.

To my knowledge the recovery is installed. Well erecovery. It was working up until I locked the bootloader again and it went into a boot loop instead of doing the factory reset.
Is there any other way to force sd update other than with the dload folder?
Thanks for tying to help, I appreciate it.

Still unsolved as of yet.
I’ve finished building my own version of the Riff/Octoplus box as well as a makeshift Jtag. I’m still trying to find and piece together some firmware files and other board software I think I need.
Also, if anyone has any idea where the test point is on this board I’d really appreciate you pointing it out. I cannot find the schematics or any solid documentation anywhere.
I will attach the pics I have of both sides of the board as soon as I get home.

It needs you to copy the UPDATE.APP in dload folder of an external sd card(formated in NTFS format) and then just press both vol up+down along with power button for a few seconds. It will auto launch huawei e-recovery and will try to flash the UPDATE.APP you stored in ext sd card. This should definitely work.
Dload method doesn't need you to unlock your device or bootloader.
Maybe?
I know it’s a long shot but I still have this phone. If anyone maybe knows if there’s been a way to fix this as of yet please let me know. ?
Lol. Still got this damn thing. Been searching around and seen a few people reporting similar errors. Never find out if they ever solve it though.
So. Anyone maybe have any knowledge to share? Anything at all.
I don't know if you still have your device, but I had the exact same issue with a P10 (VTR-L09)
I was able to fix fastboot using https://github.com/mashed-potatoes/PotatoNV
That tool was designed to unlock the bootloader, but I noticed that It actually flashes a slightly modified version of fastboot.
PotatoNV can also unlock P20 lite bootloader, so you should give it a shot.
Good luck!
If it works, you should be able to flash stock recovery image and then restore the system using the dload folder.
you can Repair it with Software Testpoint and Full Bootloader Unlock ,and then flash a Board Software via Software Testpoint, that helps 100%!!!
use this Firmware Download ANE-LX1
use the Software with logins and you have all what you need.
you must start the Software Testpoint so!!
VIDEO : how to start Software Testpoint P20 Lite
than in Software Testpoint you flash the included Board Software with DC-Phoenix and after that use the included dload update via sdcard and eRecovery mode and your Phone is running!!!
I would unlock the bootloader via Software Testpoint with DC-Phoenix, then the FBLock is unlocked and you can flash as you wish!!!! And the great thing about it is that you don't need an UnlockKey either, you can then read this with HCU client software, the only thing that's stupid is that you need a time-based license for the two programs, which you have to buy.
HCU client download

DC Phoenix download

Since I accidentally bought a 3-day license twice and my P20 Lite is now completely rooted on Lineage 19.1, I can give away 2 access data, which are still valid for 2 days.
you can edit your smartphone with it.

Factory Reset won't work: Meizu M5 Note, After trying to UNROOT using SuperSU

Oh guys, I badly need your experties. Just as I have in the title, I have a rooted Meizu M5 Note. I rooted the phone believing that I can do much more if it is rooted. But in 6 months of trying to understand what I can do with this said rooted phone, I realized now that there are not much to do with it... Probably because of the brand, so I decided to unroot
The rooting process was from here: giving me error so if requested, i'll give the link.
I have an Android build 7.0.0.0
So here is my issue:
In the same site, I found that I can unroot.. yes, UNROOT the rooted model of phone using superSU by going to its Settings and clicking unroot (or Unroot all something..). It took a bit while, so I decided to restart the device. Yes, while SuperSU was trying to unroot my phone.
Upon restart, it now could not boot.
I allowed 30 minutes, the screen only shows Flyme logo with a spinning circle. So from here, I made up my mind to perform the factory reset/restore:
Turned off Phone > Press and hold Power key + Volume Up... until I reach the screen with options to:
-Update system.
-Wipe data.
I selected Wipe data, for it will reset the system settings. It will now show the
"Wiping data.
Please dont turn off the phone, or it may fail to boot"
It will only last for 2 seconds - and will then again reboot and stop in Flyme logo with a never ending spin below.
_________________
It was already the factory reset, which I thought should help, but it wont work.
_________________
Things I tried:
- Used ADB to flash an offcial update rom from the flymeos.com, but the ADB Flashtool would not read the device because the USB Debugging is turned OFF.
- Googling any possible solutions, but cannot find any - nor any known programs that will allow me to read the not booting phone.
- Fast boot or safe mode, which only wont proceed.
- The Recovery Menu (the un-clickable one) must be locked by the manufacturer.
Can anyone please tell me:
- Is there anyway I can access the phone's drive so I can put the Update zip folder, which will help me to use the 1st recovery option "Update system"??
- Do you have any software that can help me enable the USB debugging when the phone wont boot at all??
Thanks guys..
All the help I can get will be best appreciated.
I tried posting this to forum.FlymeOS, but no one seems to have any interest on helping.
It is now you, that i think can help.
This is my Only phone, and cant afford to lose it...
Same issue with my Meizu M5 Note. I tried a tutorial on how to unlock it's bootloader. But after going through the first step, the SP Flash tool showed some error on how it does not turn on our go recover mode or anything... In really sad
