Updating My Firmware - Asus ZenFone 4 Selfie, Selfie Pro Questions & Answ

Hi, I am currently the owner of the Asus Zenfone 4 Selfie ZD553KL. Recently I discovered that I can install android version 9 on my phone (currently i have android version 7). But whatever I tried, I could not install the latest android version. I installed the zip file from the official site. I might be possible I tried in the past to unlock the bootloader, but that did not worked. I think this is the issue. I tried several ways to install the zip file, like being in the boot menu, whith fastboot and my pc etc. Does anyone knows a way how to install the latest android version? Cause android version 7 just is not good enough for me.

[HELP] Installing TWRP Boot - Recovery failed

Hey, can anyone help me. I just wanna install current twrp version cause its necessary for an Android 4.4.4 custom rom. When i rooted my phone today and installed twrp 2.5.0.1 and Android 4.2.2 CynaogenMod 10.1 all worked fine. Found out this version is to old to run Android 4.4.4 installation so I tried to update to newest trwp version and getting an error now. When i go to pink screen on phone and execute fastboot flash recovery i get the report "waiting for device". googled this and google says "driver is not installed" when having this issue. Wanted to reinstall the "Huawei_usb_driver_2.0.6.601" driver on Windows 8.1 but there is no uninstall.exe. How to reinstall this driver or what i need to do to fix this issue? Unfortunately flashing worked before....
Also tried to run GooManager but it didnt find any new version of twrp.

[Q] Asus TF300T TWRP and rom flashing

I have a Asus TF300T that I had BakedBeans on, until I tried to flash to KatKiss. I tried this on TWRP 2.6.0.0 (current version of TWRP installed on my tablet) I saw that it was unable to flash, so I researched and I was told I need the newest version of TWRP to install the KatKiss rom.
Since I have no OS on the tablet (wiped when I tried to install KatKiss), and when I plug my tablet to my pc I get "unrecognized usb device", I am limited to using the external card to do any modifications to the tablet.
I went and got the newest version of TWRP and tried to install it through the TWRP manager, but it says "select zip to install" and the file is a .blob (I don't know how to update TWRP through the main menu I guess)
I have no idea what I should do. I would like a new rom for my tablet, but I will be ok with reverting back to an older rom if that is not possible.
What should I do?
using bootloader version 10.4.2.20-20121228 please help
I managed to find an old version of BakedBeans and installed it, but I can't figure out a way to update to the newest version of TWRP without using the PC USB method, help please.

How to Update from EMUI 2.0 to 4.0 with KII-L22 ?

Hi everyone, I went from CM 13 to stock by restoring from TWRP. everything worked flawlessly except that I remember that I'm running EMUI 3.1, the Ram displays 1gb and the internal display 4gb in the about phone (although it displays normal in the file manager and running apps)
I am now trying to update from EMUI 2.0 to 4.0, also I am running TWRP and would like to get back to recovery stock as well. Please tell me if I need to get back to recovery stock before updating or the update will remove it and replace it with stock for me.
Also, Problem is my model is KII-L22 and all i see is KIW-L22 here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-5x/how-to/repository-honor-5x-file-depot-t3328288
will I not have any problems using those updates with my KII-L22?
Update:
After reading some guides, i decided to flash it via adb by extracting the update contents such as system img and boot img and flashing it manually via cmd. I am now running at emui 4.0 no problems encountered so far.
Question is did I not miss anything? My plan was to flash stock recovery and update the update zip.
Not quite sure if this method works

Updating Kindle Fire HDX 7 Android 4.4.4 to Android 6+

Hello, I have a rooted Kindle with Safestrap 4.01 (TWRP v2.7.1.0) and Android 4.4.4 (KitKat). I did that some time ago.
Now I want to update Android 4.4.4 to Android 6 or higher to run some apps on it.
I tried it with Lineage 14.1 Thor.
I wiped the device in Safestrap, installed the new firmware lineage-14.1-20200705-UNOFFICIAL-thor.zip, wiped Dalvik after it was done flashing and rebooted.
I also tried it with other Lineage versions but after rebooting it's only showing a black screen for 20+ minutes (the only one that seemed to work was Lineage 11 but it didn't update my Android version).
Am I doing something wrong? Maybe I go about it totally wrong but all tutorials tell me that's the way to go.
EDIT:
I almost bricked my system twice and I think I found the culprit. It might be Safestraps fault.
Now I'm trying to get a twrp recovery mode update but the fastboot mode doesn't let me use .img files
(doesn't recognize any devices and I already manually updated my Android ADB Interface driver a few dozen times but it still won't work - still a question mark above the device).
Is there a twrp zip file which I can use to install from Safestrap?

Honor 7 custom ROM install issues

Hi all,
I experience some issues installing a custom ROM to my Huawei Honor 7 PLK-L01 phone. Can anyone help me or pointing me in the right direction please?
I'm trying to install a custom ROM, but from the ones I tried to install (DigiROM, H7T, Lineage 13, Lineage 13 v2, Lineage 14, Pure, YodaROM), I only managed to get Lineage 13 and Lineage 13 v2 working on my phone. I was able to install all other ROM's, but after installation and rebooting, the phone got stuck on the "Honor" start-up screen and not continue to boot the ROM afterwards.
(By the way, does someone have the MoDaCo Custom ROM (by paulobrien) available? I want this ROM the most, but the download site has been taken offline )
I'm using TWRP v3.2.1-0, but also tried installations with TWRP v3.1.1-0-plank.
With all installations, I wiped dalvik/cache/data/system and installed the ROM by installing the copied .zip file from my SD card, via TWRP.
(Installation via ADB Sideload is not working. Device is not recognized in ADB, even after installing USB drivers. Fortunately, installing via TWRP works for me.)
My phone is unlocked and root is working fine. The phone version was initially C432B121 (Don't know if this changes with each ROM installation?)
Although LOS13 is able to be installed on my phone, with this ROM, I'm not able to charge my phone... When I try to select the USB configuration mode (via "Select USB configuration" via Developer Options), the settings menu crashes after selecting one, with error message "Unfortunately, Settings has stopped."
When setting up a lock screen security (eg. PIN code to unlock phone), the same error occurs.
Furthermore, the camera is not working, but this would be a known issue for this ROM. Hence, on my phone, the camera is also not working with suggested apps as Footej, Camu, or Cameringo, which should deal with this issue.
Does anyone recognize this? Do I have a sort of admin rights issue? Or do I need to install a matching firmware version for each ROM? Or perhaps another TWRP version?
Right now I have installed Lineage OS 13 Reloaded v2.0 (Android 6.0.1) (by Spirtix & Speedo.thc)
Problem solved! Updating the OTA firmware was my solution (C432B121 to B130, then to B180, then B370).
Thanks to DigiGoon, these files can be downloaded here: https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=102830
hello @broek84 - sorry for an unrelated question:
how did you unlock the bootloader of your Honor 7?
thx
