This project has been incorporated into another larger and multi-device: TOOL ALL IN ONE
I decided to create a fast and secure program to simplify modding on these watches. At this moment only the Amazfit Pace si supported, when there are more guide on Amazfit Stratos i will upgrade this tool. Remember to unlock your amazfit bootloader you always need of unlock code from https://unlockamazfit.com/

It's not necessary, but if you install an apk you need of app list to open it on your amazfit
maybe consider creating an English installer?

At this moment i have not found a lock command that works, when i find it i will add an option to lock bootloader in the tool
I found your utility and now I want to use it to unlock my amazfit pace.
But when going to fastboot mode the watch gets into fastboot mode and windows tries to install a fastboot device (this does not get installed) and then your utility hangs.
I do have fastboot and adb installed , but adb = v1.0.32 and I do not how to find the version of fastboot.
When using fastboot on the commandline I can use it to reboot my phone when it is in fastboot mode. When I want to reboot the watch in fastboot mode the command also hangs.
So I guess this has something to do with versions of adb and/or fastboot.
Do I need a lower version because the watch runs on android 5.1?
If yes, what version do I need and how to uninstall the currents version of these tools.
Can anybody help me out?

Yes!
also people reading the article on the portal, the tool does not use fast flash commands, it uses the dd method for those flashes, when i add kernel flashing and backing up your device as .img files then i will be adding fastboot flash commands, so yes, the flashes occur when your device is booted!
Can I ask what version of TWRP is installed, is it the latest?

ok cheers, no problem. Will wait for the new version to be up, no rush. Thanks for your commitment to provide a tool for us noobs/lazy people!
Would you recommend running your tool before first boot?
Just a few questions: when there is <waiting for device> for 5 minutes, that seems like my drivers are wrong? It was possible to unlock, but not to install a recovery, so i am trying to update my drivers...
And can i run the tool and select unlock, install recovery and root even when my device is already unlocked?

Contribute:
As not everything is working fully yet helping hands are welcome!
Follow the project management issue over at the Halium GitHub page:
https://github.com/Halium/projectmanagement/issues/98
Instructions (tested on Ubuntu 18.04):
First make sure to wipe /system & /data from within TWRP. The partitions must be ext4.
Make sure to upgrade your device to the latest stock Android 8.0 before continuing: https://developer.sony.com/develop/open-devices/get-started/flash-tool/
Download and install the UBports installer: https://github.com/ubports/ubports-installer/releases
OEM unlock your device: https://developer.sony.com/develop/open-devices/get-started/unlock-bootloader/
Boot your device into fastboot mode by shutting it down and keeping the Volume Up button pressed while plugging in a USB cable between your phone and PC. The LED should be on and blue.
Flash the OEM binaries from: https://developer.sony.com/file/download/software-binaries-for-aosp-nougat-android-7-1-kernel-4-4-loire/ using:
Code:
fastboot flash oem SW_binaries_for_Xperia_AOSP_N_MR1_5.7_r1_v08_loire.img
Run the UBports installer and follow the on-screen instructions
Reserved for future use
wtf bro i never expected to see ubuntu touch on any device again great news and good work! keep it up!
Too bad my device broke......gotta fix fast lol
I've updated download links and the instructions to enable call functionality. Testers welcome!
Ready for tests! Just need to install Ubuntu with current manual
Have I need to flash stock rom with android 7 or just flash binaries on stock android 8?
New tests to be done, we've recently gotten video decoding to work and I enabled basic camera support.
OP has been updated with the link to the newest images.
Feel free to post issues here if you are not feeling well with GitHub.
Regarding stock ROM or not:
Any system image should work, you can even wipe system as it's not used.
As long as the ODM partition is flashed everything should be good.
I'm trying this for the 2nd time and both times I can't get any audio in calls. I ran the commands in the first post. Any tips on what else to try? I'd really like to try this, test some more and help out, but it's the only phone I've got right now.

Did you run the commands through ssh or via the Terminal app? Mind doing a "select all" and copy-paste the output to some paste service?
EDIT: Also, did you reboot after issuing the commands?
Thanks for the work on this.
I need a little bit more explanation on how to install this. I gave it a try, but I end up in getting a white boot screen with the sony logo. Installing SailfishOS with the flash.sh script works perfectly.
Questions:
- When do you need to use twrp? When running adb?
- Running the halium install script only works when booted into twrp. Is this correct?
- Do you need to manually boot into fastboot mode (volume up, blue led)?
- The sailfish installation uses oem for android 6, here 7 is used. Can this make the difference?
Thanks for any support.

Sorry for the late reply. I got it to work now. My problem was using an outdated system.img and boot.img. (oops, sorry, my bad!) I had downloaded the newer versions, but had them in the wrong directory. Once I deleted the old and installed the correct versions, I was able to get audio in calls and had the basic camera functionality.

boot into fastboot and flash the oem:
fastboot flash oem SW_binaries_for_Xperia_AOSP_N_MR1_5.7_r1_v08_loire.img
then boot into twrp recovery and wipe /system and /data
while in twrp, run the halium-install.sh script (because the computer needs to connect to phone in adb mode, which twrp provides)
following from there, as you see in the first post, you will run "adb reboot bootloader" (but I think I did have to do it manually) which should put you back into fastboot mode where you'll "fastboot flash boot halium-boot.img"
then you should be able to reboot into ubuntu. The first boot takes a little longer.

No but you can find some videos on YouTube, just search for "Ubuntu Touch 2019".

Someone else is working on that already, but this port is only for the Xperia X (F5121).
In other news:
Installation instructions have been updated, the Xperia X port is now available from the UBports community channel!
Can you make port for XA 2 (H3113)
As I get the question very often: To support the F5122 variant of the Xperia X (or other devices in general) for Ubuntu Touch I need donations to buy the device.
Use the "Donate To Me" button on XDA or head over to https://fredl.me/donate/ for info on how to do so.
In other news: The Xperia X F5121 has gained support for the official UBports installer. You can now flash the device using a fancy GUI.
I hit 2 problems. For some reason neither Emma nor flashtool wants to flash stock rom correctly. Tried to flash ubuntu through stock 8.0 custom rom, phone reboots and black screen. Also there is was an error with something that the file couldn't be sent to the phone
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Ok, so I did install the stock rom through EMMA fine. I did enable the usb debugging, installed twrp, wiped system & data, made sure they are EXT4. Rebooted to fastboot, installed SW binaries. Opened UBports Installer & proceeded with instructions. I got this error
Code:
Error: systemimage: Error: Error: {"error":{"killed":false,"code":1,"signal":null,"cmd":"C:\\Users\\domin\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\1Uo4H80AYPnCivmpnC8M9LLWxLb\\resources\\app.asar.unpacked\\platform-tools\\win\\adb -P 5037 shell mount -a"},"stdout":"","stderr":"mount: mounting /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/userdata on /data failed: Invalid argument"}
Any solutions, did I miss something? I gonna retry without the twrp step, as I am pretty sure the partition format will be EXT4
Hi guys, I'm here to learn something about Android Security System.
I have this Sapphire TV BOX
model: DWI259S / UIW4020ETI / UIW4020ETI2 (Sapphire)
SoC: Broadcom BCM7271
The goal of this post is to understand how I can gain root access on this device
I know how to turn it in recovery mode .
if you are interested you can read this Reddit post from ams_sharif
"You can boot to recovery by switching the unit off ( the black button in the back), then while holding the power button (the one on the side, next to the pair button) turn the set top box on until the recovery shows up."
This is what I see.

I tried to flash an update.zip in order to see if I can execute command through any script, but the verification of the signature fails.
I tried to click on "Apply update from USB" (that is adb sideload) , but connecting the tv box on the pc nothing happen, no device found neither with "adb devices"
I tried also to click on "Reboot to bootloader" but "fastboot devices" command return nod devices connected.
My idea was to read the recovery image from fastboot extract it and try to compile my own TWRP
Do you have any suggestions to guide me in the right way?
@element14
When you enter
Code:
adb devices
and don't see an entry listed under the “List of devices” section, then your device isn't connected to PC.
Same is case when you enter
Code:
fastboot devices
Recovery option "Apply update from USB" isn't equal to "adb sideload". This option assumes the Update.Zip you want to flash is located on USB-device connected with your TV box.
With regards to rooting your TV box you can try to flash Chainfire's SuperSu Pro.
BTW: TWRP isn't a recovery image you compile in order to flash, it's merely a touch-enabled replacement for device's Stock Recovery menu as shown by you
Example screenshot:

The TWRP is an open source project , all the source code is avaiable. But to have it works , you need the original kernel .
I tought , If I can unlock the bootloader I can read the image of the recvoery.img and from it extarct the kernel
Thanks for your answer.
@ element14
did you manage to make the device usebale?
Hello, i am also interested to reset\flash this device but I couldn't find any useful guide, did you manage to root it or flash it, I want to use it as android STB.
As long as you can establish an USB-connection ( read: ADB connection ) then you can root any device's Android OS, otherwise NOT.
Any updates on this topic? It would be great to know if someone was able to root it.

Going to apps list:
- insert usb
- click browse
- go up to internal storage, press ok, click Apps
part 1
- go to apps list, keep usb inserted
- scroll to Files, click it, click open
- if it opens skip to part 2
- else it will crash and show the first time boot
- go to apps list again while keeping usb inserted
- open files again
part 2
- connect a mouse to other USB port, navigate into the USB and into where you placed your APKs
- double click the apk to install it
- on first time install, it will show an error about unknown sources
- click settings on the prompt
- enable all sources shown
- continue installing the app

Hi guys, I'm here to learn something about Android Security System.
I have this Sapphire TV BOX
model: DWI259S / UIW4020ETI / UIW4020ETI2 (Sapphire)
SoC: Broadcom BCM7271
The goal of this post is to understand how I can gain root access on this device
I know how to turn it in recovery mode .
if you are interested you can read this Reddit post from ams_sharif
"You can boot to recovery by switching the unit off ( the black button in the back), then while holding the power button (the one on the side, next to the pair button) turn the set top box on until the recovery shows up."
This is what I see.
I tried to flash an update.zip in order to see if I can execute command through any script, but the verification of the signature fails.
I tried to click on "Apply update from USB" (that is adb sideload) , but connecting the tv box on the pc nothing happen, no device found neither with "adb devices"
I tried also to click on "Reboot to bootloader" but "fastboot devices" command return nod devices connected.
My idea was to read the recovery image from fastboot extract it and try to compile my own TWRP
Do you have any suggestions to guide me in the right way?

https://doc.weixin.qq.com/doc/w3_Af0Alwb2ADI1SPrVvXuRMSe1k7YCa?scode=AOoATwelAA81ct055JAf0Alwb2ADI. (translate page) this is for rooting
https://doc.weixin.qq.com/doc/w3_Af0Alwb2ADIf1c8AEgvSQKFdc0JIx?scode=AOoATwelAA8M2GMdFmAf0Alwb2ADI. ( This is for flashing rom or downgrading).
Note oem unlock must be enabled in developer mode, then unlock bootloader in fastboot mode before rooting. There are many command for unlocking bootloader I used fastboot oem unlock. first enter fastboot ( adb reboot-bootloader or use the side key combination) to enter fastboot mode. Then adb fastboot devices ( to make sure my device is recognized first) note use the side port for adb or fastboot mode for y90. Then fastboot oem unlock. If pass. Check to verify by typing. Fastboot getvar unlocked . If unlocked status yes. Then restart and install magisk, patch your latest rom boot.img in magisk or recovery.img, depending on magisk ram disk yes or no, if yes then patch boot.img if no then recovery.img, getting recovery.img is another step altogether, search for the method online. Copy the patched file to your adb fastboot tool. go back to fastboot mode. Fast boot devices to make sure ur device is recognized and flash the patched boot.img, by typing fastboot flash boot ( the magisk_patched.img file which you patched) then execute. Restart.
For clear understanding, fully comprehend adb fastboot tool, and how to open the terminal, bootloader unlock command as I mentioned before there are many fastboot command to unlock bootloader and fully refer to the link above for guidance. I just did a summary of the whole process. Thanks

Actually I just got in. Not a very user friendly system but achieved access.
Does anyone have the firmware to root? I cannot get into WeChat or would someone be willing to verify my number so I'm able to do so?

Send them an email & they will register the mobile number. They do respond. It takes a couple of weeks however, i tried on a different phone and got in earlier. Didn't do anything different but it worked. Persistance.

If I could have a copy of the 14.0.120 firmware I would appreciate it... Been trying for months to get notifications to work properly but never seems to obviously due to the CN firmware.

They have these, you can't get an official update yet?
No, they restricted the ZUI 14 (android 13) update to mainland China. It's been very difficult to track down. Someone within that weChat group has it, and it should be 14.0.222 or a few digits below for the full .qpst firmware package. Please ask someone there if you can, would really like to have the current platform available.

Okay I will look for someone
Guide has been reworked to be more clear and based on comments.
[Part One]
Backup Data
Update phone to latest version
[Part Two]
Download the Firmware for the Zenfone 9 https://www.asus.com/mobile/phones/zenfone/zenfone-9/helpdesk_download/

[Part Four]
Unlock Zenfone 9 Bootloader. Asus provides a bootloader unlock tool on their website. Below is the link directly to the apk. https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/ZenFone/ZS590KS/AsusUnlock_1.0.0.7_210127_fulldpi.apk
Install the drivers listed below for the phones recovery mode https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/ZenFone/ZS590KS/ASUS_Android_USB_drivers_for_Windows_20160331.zip (Asus Driver Xanker commented. Thank you again)
[Part Five]
Download Minimal ADB and extract files https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=962187416754459552
Move Boot.img file into Minimal ADB extracted folder.
Put Zenfone into recovery mode and connect to PC. Recovery mode can be achieved by turning off the phone and then powering on whilst holding the volume up button. Release when the ASUS logo pops on screen.
Run cmd-here.exe in the Minimal ADB folder; a command window will open
As a test run the command listed below and it should output a device fastboot devices
If that test succeeded run the final command to flash, fastboot flash boot boot.img
The command prompt command didn't run. Said it was not recognized. Is there a specific place the .exe need to be in the directory?
NVM...got it.
@BreadNoose Thanks for the write-up!!!
I just got the phone 2 days ago and have been trying to follow your steps but without success. I keep having issues with fastboot (I've probably spent 6+ hours on it; I also have a 9-5 job haha). The following are things I've tried:
*Btw, OEM unlock is not showing in Developers options. Download unlock app and I think my OEM is unlocked but in recovery it says "Yes" next to Bootloader thing.
-ADB works fine.
-Download Platform from Google.
-Tried ADB minimal from xda also.
-I tried three laptops, two windows 11 and the other windows 10. None of them recognize fastboot.
- When I go to device manager I see Asus phone listed with that yellow triangle sign and when I try to update the driver it either says drivers up to date or if I manually try to update it says some other error.
- Try different cables.
- I even disabled the driver signature in the restart menu but no success.
-I tried using Asus 8 drivers thinking that would help but nothing.
I wonder if it's just the Asus 9 driver that's the issue? What am I missing???
Any idea?
Thanks for any help you can provide.

Had the same Problem, you have to use this driver:
https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/ZenFone/ZS590KS/ASUS_Android_USB_drivers_for_Windows_20160331.zip
The image version that I just downloaded seems to be at a higher version (WW-32.2030.2030.26 as opposed to WW-32.2004.2004.84 on my phone) and the phone doesn't have that version available (I haven't unlocked the bootloader yet). Should I update locally or download the earlier version of the image instead?
If your phone has the 2004 version installed extract the boot.img from the downloaded 2004 Payload.bin. Or you can update your phone and use the 2030 boot.img.
For me it works with the 2030 version. Root installed, everything ok (AdAway, Postbank (BankingApp)).
If you want to pass SafetyNet just install the magisk module from https://github.com/kdrag0n/safetynet-fix/releases/tag/v2.3.1 and reboot.
OK, rooted with no issues, I needed to install the asus drivers and had to reset a second time because the USB stopped working. However, I can't get Google wallet to work despite all other banking apps working as well as passing safetynet.
I dont use wallet, but if installed i can run it and start the setup, no errors.
Maybe try it with the use of denylist.

Doesn't work, the guide asks for denying google system apps which doesn't work because they are always off deny list (this is intended behaviour)
For the record, every other payment apps I am using, even the ones that check for safetynet are working. YASNAC returns a both pass basic.
Then i am sorry (Im too new to the whole android stuff, still learning)
Just for interest, can you start and configure wallet (error comes first if you want to pay)?

Wallet is configurable, it's just that when you save your card details and it starts contacting the bank it would jump to an error saying that the system is modified.
Maybe try this? (I think you have already read/tried it)
[Magisk] Google wallet (pay) with magisk
Saw on reddit that some people have issues with google pay, since the new update added some new checks. So here is what you do: - Update Magisk to 25.2, Update magisk app to 25.2 as well - Rename Magisk app if you havent already - [ OPTIONAL ]...
forum.xda-developers.com
Does someone rooted a 16GB ram Zenfone 9? My software is 32.2004.2004.74.
Can not find this software at Asus website.
I have rooted the 16gb version (32.2030.2030.26).
Why dont make an update before root?
