Hi guys,
Before you say again a topic on a non bricked One Plus X, I would like to let you know that I've checked and try almost all of the tutorial I've seen on xda and one plus forum.
I was on CM14.1 with this ROM : https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-x/orig-development/rom-cyanogenmod-14-onyx-t3452150
Unfortunately, I made the 25-12-2016 update and it totally broke up the phone..
I download the OnePlus X OxygenOS 3.1.4 on the One Plus website. So I flash it on the stock recovery, it tells me "Install success" then I reboot and it stays on the bootlogo.
For information, I can't access the oem unlock menu if needed, but when I ask the oem device info it says unlocked. The phone is detected by the computer sometimes with unknown device and sometimes correctly with the qualcomm drivers..
I have a back up made from TWRP, I can access the device by the fastboot mode, it seems that all the operations written here worked but it doesn't install or even boot on TWRP..
Thanks for your help guys.
Are you using latest TWRP from website think version 3.0.3?

I'm not even using TWRP, since I can't boot on it.. But I tried to flash the twrp-3.0.2-2 from blue spark v41, after the installation via Flashboot, it doesn't boot up on the recovery..
So after flashing TWRP you use fastboot boot recovery.img and nothing happens?

If you did not unlocked bootloader properly then also you might face the problem...
to unlock bootloader: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-x/general/discussion-how-to-root-oneplus-x-t3242830
make sure you follow all the step. (If you didn't followed these steps then lock bootloader {fastboot oem lock} and unlock using this mathod, worked for me.)

You should send it to RMA

Start by seeing if you can fastboot flash stock recovery from any 2.X.X OOS. Then fastboot flash twrp 3.0.2. If your on new bootloader meaning latest ROMs or OOS3 then you need to boot into 3.0.2 and from there you can flash IMG of twrp 3.0.3. Make sure you boot right back into recovery after flashing any twrp or it won't stick. This worked for me when I lost my recovery twice but always remember at your own risk. Not responsible if you make your phone into a paper weight.
Fix It!

Hey can anyone help me on how to root acer liquid zest (t06) 3g version? I don't seem to find any guides on how to root this phone.
If anyone can help me thanks in advance
Edit:
(Must be flashed with unlocked bootloader.)
To those asking on how I rooted my phone here:
Get this recovery and flash it:Flash this via fastboot/ADB
Mod edit: Link removed as recovery was causing issues with users' devices.
If flashing it doesn't work try booting it instead:
https://aubykhan.wordpress.com/2013/07/21/-tip-boot-into-twrp-or-cwm-recovery-without-flashing/
After Flashing the recovery download supersu and flash it:
https://download.chainfire.eu/969/Su...0630161323.zip
Done you rooted your phone
For anyone asking for a custom rom here:
http://www.droidpeepz.xyz/2016/08/cm-rom-601-cyanogenmod-13-unofficial.html
I know this isn't for acer liquid zest but it worked for me without porting it
try changing themes and settings if the rom is lagging or stuttering
For the stock rom I still need to upload it

I have the same problem as you do and have installed twrp several times but it's not helping i still get stuck into the bootloop that shows twrp trying to do some things but can't do it. So do anybody know where you can find the stock recovery for this device?
do you have a different link for the CyanogenMod? i can't download it in Mega Server, it says "Limit Exceeded".
Hey guys, bought this phone a month back and tried the recovery in the op and the display was off. As well as a couple of the partitions. Just booting the recovery once messed up my touchscreen somehow and I was unable to repair my phone. So I got another one and I went ahead and unpacked the recovery and repacked it with my recovery kernel as well as removed unnecessary partitions from the list of used partitions in the recovery. If anyone has a new liquid zest with Android 6.0, use this recovery:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bz4bOoJ_E5XzaktJVTcwNFNGazQ/view?usp=drivesdk
Also, I found the stock firmware if anyone needs it, just shout me a message and I'll upload it for you.

that is the stock firmware for the acer z525 aka the t06 aka liquid zest. This firmware flashes with sp flash tools. you will need the mtk preloader driver. alternativly, you can just flash the recovery and boot images included in the firmware package with fastboot. the commands are "fastboot flash boot <image>" for the boot and "fastboot flash recovery <image>" for the recovery. now as I said, this recovery works 100% for me and i have the same phone.... so When you unlocked your bootloader, you used the "fastboot oem unlock" command? and did you press the vol up button on the phone afterwards to confirm the unlock? and did it do a factory reset? all of these things are mandatory prior to flashing the recovery. if you did all of that then i gotta ask, Are you sure you have the z525 and not the z528 with lte?

I was flashing paranoid android 6.0.2 for my device. I downloaded the zip(from the official paranoid android website) and checked the md5 checksum, which did not match. However, like a total idiot, I flashed it nonetheless. On booting, the phone gets stuck on the boot logo. I tried booting into recovery(TWRP) and performing a factory reset to no avail. I redownloaded the flashable zip for Paranoid, successfully verified the md5 checksum and flashed it again, no avail. Restore a full backup from within TWRP, no avail. My phone still gets stuck on the bootlogo. I have looked all over every forum without any results. Please help me out? I would like to get it back to functional state and flash the rom again. As mentioned, I have access to my custom recovery and can connect to my device via fastboot. I am willing to give any other information you may need.
Thanks!

Flash any 2.X.X ROM. One way is to fastboot flash old stock recovery and flash safest way I think. The other is to flash with twrp make sure after flashing the ROM to flash old twrp IMG after. Make sure you boot right back into twrp.

Assuming you're on OOS3 with TWRP for new bootloader,
- Boot into recovery
- Wipe everything except SD Card
- Flash OOS2 zip
- Boot into it
- Goto settings, unlock dev options, enable advanced reboot
- Then reboot to bootloader
- Flash twrp for old bootloader via fastboot, use this one https://dl.twrp.me/onyx/twrp-3.0.2-0-onyx.img
Done
-Now u hv sucessfully downgraded ur bootloader,flash PA or any supported roms

I have a RedmI Note 3 (kenzo) running Lineage OS 14.1
The RAM usage reports around 150MB of use only and there is no free RAM. So I think there is a problem with my phone and I decide to flash everything to start again.
I found a compatible kernel and flashed that new kernel and I got bootloop.
I read that if I flash the ROM again, the kernel will be replaced by the default one so I went to do that with TWRP.
Went to TWRP to flash my ROM and got error 7.
Read a bit more and I read that somethimes very old TWRP will show that message for new ROM.
Indeed, my TWRP was quite old.
Followed steps to flash my TWRP recovery to newer version in TWRP.
Now my TWRP recovery can't even work.
Try to flash ROM with ADB, but I forgot to enable debugging before bootloop.
Is there a way I can fix it?
I don't need the things on my phone.
I just want it to work again.
Thank you for reading and provide me with guidance to fix my phone.

I have another thing to worry about. The charge light is not on and my phone won't shut down. It can only bootloop or in fastboot. I put it on fastboot now. Still don't know how to shut it down or not sure if it is charging because there is no charging light.
I followed this:

Flashed it, MiFlash says operation was successful but still won't boot up normally.
Now I don't have to worry about running out of battery because it boots to logo and turns off to nothing.

Here is the last version at the moment of the Maze alpha ROM (tested only in 4GB version)
It's a complete ROM, not an OTA update, it can be flashed using the provided TWRP 3.2.1 version, I ported from a Jemmini (many thanks) version for Bluboo S1.
Unfortunately, the TWRP cannot be flashed (issue with the touch panel), only launched by fastboot.
The ROM is the same as the v8 official one except that it is rooted using Magisk 15.2 and busybox 1.27.2 (thanks to osm0sis) is installed in /system/xbin
There is also a SPFlashTool clean version of this ROM, useful in case of troubles (as official: no root, no busybox)
1- Reboot you phone in fastboot mode : adb reboot bootloader
2- Flash the provided TWRP : fastboot flash recovery recovery_maze_alpha_4G_twrp-321.img
3- Reboot to TWRP recovery
4- copy in your SDCARD and install, in the running TWRP, the downloaded ROM V09 : Maze_Alpha_4GB_v09_TWRP.zip
The first boot take some minutes so be patient.
Here the SPFlashTool versions :
MAZE_Alpha_4GB_V09_SPFT.zip
Here, if needed, my V09 TWRP backup (new one from 21/04/2018) :
TWRP_BACKUP_MAZE_Alpha_A_V09.zip

Hi dreambo,
do You know if there's a stock rom for download from maze alpha x? I think it's important for normal users and developers to get one. For normal users it's important to have an option to reinstall stock version and for developers I think it's the source for custom roms (e.g. Lineage Os).
If You know a source, can You please give us a link?

Hi
Sorry for stupid question, but is flashing with SP Flashtool an option to get root without wiping all data (unlike all other methods involving bootloader unlocking)?

Unfortunatly no. As you will see repeated times in the forum, people have issue with phone not booting after changing from stock recovery to twrp. This is do (most likely from) to verified boot setting. And by unlocking bootloader we can bypass verified boot. So without unlock you might get a successfull load into twrp, but android will not boot.
Hello to all and please help if you can.
After unlocking the bootloader and flash the rom I'v got orange state with bootloop. Then after trying to fix it (wrong way) and relock bootloader and got red state with bootloop. I read that flahing back to stock fix the problem but I have no success with the rom provided in this post, the v5 from maze, the latest flash tool and the maze alpha flash tool... in all cases I get DA error(maze flash tool) or DA MISHMATCH (sp flash tool). I also tried different pc and cable with no result and finaly can't get fastboot. If that helps I've got the same flash tool error before the procedure. Every help will be appreciated.

First unlock again your bootloader and use fastboot to flash boot, recovery and system partitions:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img.
Those partition images can be found in the ROM for SPFlashTool I have provide.
After that you can boot android normally.
If you any TWRP backup, you can restore it after flashing the TWRP.
Thanks a lot for your reply....
the problem is that i cant boot into fastboot to unlock bootloader....
the phone bootloops all the time, shows the red state alert and even with vol+ pressed the menu to choose recovery or fastboot doesn't apear... thanks again.

Is there any way to unlock the bootloader in my situation or/and enter the fastboot mode in order to follow your steps... thanks.
Unlocking Bootloader1. Make sure you have a sim and active mobile data. Then go to about phone tap build number 7-8 times. After that go to advanced settings > developer options > turn on OEM unlocking and then check if this device is secure and click add account and device.
2. Download Mi unlock tool from here. Extract it and paste it in C:/unlock. or else your device won't be recognized for unlocking.
3. Open Mi unlock tool and then enter the Mi account which was on your device. Put your device in fastboot mode by pressing vol- and power and then connect to PC. Press unlock and if it tells you to wait you have no other option but to wait. If your mi flash tool shows connect your device even after you have connected it. Follow this guide here.
4. After you have unlocked your bootloader reboot your phone.
Flashing TWRP and Rooting via magisk
1. Download this TWRP image here. Thanks to the original developer mauronofrio.
2. Download adb and fastboot tools here and install it.
3. Now put your phone in fastboot mode and connect it with your pc. Now where you have downloaded the TWRP file rename it to TWRP.img and open a CMD window there if you don't know how just google.
4. Type the following commands
1. fastboot devices
2. fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img
3. fastboot reboot recovery.

5. Your phone will boot into TWRP now. But TWRP will be overwritten by stock miui recovery to stop that you need to flash Magisk. Download this zip move it to internal storage then flash by tapping on install and swipe to flash. Reboot your device. Reboot to recovery again to check if TWRP is present.
Now your device is rooted
OR
Flash latest OrangeFox Recovery if you don't want magisk.
Flashing A rom
1. Download.
2. Flash.
3 Format Data.
Done
Feel free to ask any questions. And don't point a finger at me for messing your device.

Hi there!
Silly question: is it possible to install TWRP but keep the official ROM? (phone is unlocked)

Flashing a custom rom is optional. You don't NEED to flash a rom to get TWRP...

I've unlocked the bootloader using the unlock tool and waited for 7 days,
But i rooted the device using a different method where i patched a boot.img and flashed that to the device.
Will this method still work for me as I'm already rooted but just want TWRP so i can flash other ROMs.. The post says you have to flash magisk from the (temporary) TWRP for the TWRP to stay as the recovery..
Will the magisk on my phone and the magisk installed here collide?
I just want TWRP so i can switch to a custom rom, so any input is appreciated!!

Skip the flashing a rom part and you will be good to go.

You can flash twrp and then check if it persists. If not flash magisk again their is no thing as magisk colliding lol. Just make sure you flash a newer version. And if nothing works flash stock rom and then twrp.
If you have the stock boot IMG flash it and then intsall twrp and magisk.

Haha, makes sense! Thank you for your answers
Nevermind.. i got it to work pretty easily..
I have twrp on this device and Pixel Experience ROM and it's working all fine..
But there's this one thing where when booting to recovery, it asks me to input a password for User(0) when i try to input anything it says password failed..
From reading the log, it says it's for decrypting data(8f I'm not mistaken)
Is this important? Do i need to decrypt it?
Currently the ROM works fine with no errors, so I'm not gonna bother, but would still like to know what this "decrypting" thing is..

Yes, If you use a lock screen enter that password it will be decrypted. You will have to format data if you decide to flash any other rom anyway.

Hey buddy, thank you for this quick step-by-step guide. I flash ROMs since 2012 and you know what? It helped me the same. Having all stuff needed for go from stock to custom concentrated in one place (plus some useful tip like the Magisk flash at the end) it's always useful and time-saving. Thank you
2 Micro-notes about fastboot btw:
- write 'fastboot (with lowered 'f'): it may confuse some newbie
- it's 'reboot' instead of 'boot'
