Nice guide
awesome
I know this isn't the thread for it... but there is no forum for the ZenFone 3 Zoom.
I have US model and I've unlocked the bootloader, installed TWRP, rooted.
I want to install rom update that was just released last week. It obviously doesn't flash in TWRP. I also can't unzip it without corruption errors. Redownloaded the ROM multiple times from ASUS.
I assume to update stock rom with an unlocked Bootloader we'll need stock recovery??

How did you do the rooting? No issues so far? Is there a guide somewhere you followed?

Use the bootloader unlock.
Install TWRP.
Install SuperSU zip file.

And where was that twrp install originally from? I haven't found an image for this model specifically.
Also, does this bootloader unlock still allow the pushed OS updates from ASUS? Want to make sure I can get Nougat when it comes out!
Hey guys,
I need some help. I installed the apk to unlock the bootloader and my phone was fine, but after flashing twrp and installing the zip for supersu via twrp, my phone has been stuck on the boot screen. Now it says "The dm verity is not started in enforcing mode and may not work properly" when booting up. I can get back into twrp, and I've tried wiping the dalvik/art cache, system, data, and cache, but my phone still won't boot up. It's stuck on the ASUS boot screen, and I have no idea what to do now. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

No. The last update WW_V11.41.87.2 is not available for my OTA. I can download the zip though and flash. I haven't actually attempted to do this yet. I plan to flash it today. Not sure if I'll be able to do it through twrp, or if I'll have to flash back the stock recovery first.
So does this change the bands available with it? I have the WW ROM but want the additional bands the US ROM has.
why I only have system.new.dat where can i get the system.img? thank you
How did you get on with flashing the update... did you have to revert to stock recovery and if so which did you use? Thanks for your help with this.
Can I ask where/how you got the stock ROM? I'd like to make sure that these are updated/available somewhere for people on this device to use as needed, and ASUS seems to only have the updates on their website.
Is it possible to relock bootloader after converting to WW?
I'm interested in this phone. Do you know if this one is going to be shipped later this year with Snapdragon 630?. I hear something similar in a YouTube video.

Back to Stock with @raystef66's Files
This guide used a method stemmed from paranoia. Now that we have decent flashable files everything is much simpler!
We'll be using raystef66's flashable TWRP files to go completely back to stock. At the end there's instructions if you want to lock your bootloader.
Be sure that you are on the latest TWRP version!
1) Files to Download:
- TWRP Flashable Bootstack/Stocksystem Image from here: Download Center. Download the latest BOOTSTACK and STOCKSYSTEM from there.
- If you want to lock the bootloader, also download the STOCK RECOVERY zip from the same stocksystem version that you downloaded. The flashable stock recovery zips are on the Factory Images Division, right above the TWRP flashable files.
- Magisk 15.2 (or latest), or SuperSU 2.79 (Latest not recommended ). If you will relock the bootloader, skip this part.
2) Installation
- Put all the files on the internal storage or SD card. Backup your important stuff from the internal storage, because you might need to format it!
- Go to TWRP. Wipe data, system and cache (don't format data though).
- Install the bootstack that you downloaded. Then install the stock system.
- If you will NOT relock the bootloader, install Magisk or SuperSU
- Reboot
If the phone asks for a password when it gets to the system, go to TWRP. It will ask for a password, just select Cancel. After you're on the main TWRP screen, select Wipe, then Format data, then type yes. After that, reboot.
3) 5 second screen removal / restore Fastboot
This is useful whether you're relocking the bootloader or not. Just go to raystef66's guide and follow it completely. After doing it your phone will have Fastboot (very good for softbricks and relocking), no 5 seconds screen (your phone will boot up faster) and it will be even closer to full stock.
4) ONLY FOR RELOCKING - Replace TWRP with Stock Recovery
Simply go to TWRP and flash the stock recovery file you downloaded. After that, enable OEM unlocking and USB debugging from the dev options, and then go to Fastboot and issue "fastboot oem lock".
@Choose an username... thanks for the credits.
you can return to stock in that way. you can reflash twrp with tool, allways checking bootloader still unlocked.
I allway update in this way, reboot to twrp, flash the recovery image, not a zip, its the same, but I make sure that the recovery correspond to the base version in my phone. after that, I reboot to system directly, update in the ota way, or the zip way, but from running android, rooted or not, and I dont have to wipe.
After update is done, the most important thing is leave the phone till it is completly booted, then you can reflash twrp with axon7tool again.
You dont need to root, you dont need anything to keep twrp. You only need to flash supersu or magisk if you use darkenfx zips. And if you do it, you have to backup wipe and restore cause you lose encryptation.
But thats all. I think stock rom its still the best, not in battery life, but in camera and bundled apps, It works perfectly, except, I have 2 bugs since allways, wake up with proximity sensor covered, and whatsapp online with app in background, I can live with that
I can re-lock bootloader after this process?
thanks for the guide.
Help Needed ! A2017g Bricked while trying to returning to stock
Hi, Please help me to get my Axon 7 in a working state. I was using Xenon HD Rom for A2017g Oreo. With twrp version as suggested in the guide.
I followed the procedure, installed the bootstack and then stock system B09
But when I tried to reboot, it said no OS Installed. Then I rebooted, and it was stuck at bootloader with no twrp and just the message as follows :
Android Recovery : ZTE/P996A04_N/ailsa_ii
7.1.1/NMF26V/20171120.101942
user/release-keys
Use volume up/down and power
and then certain other options in blue
Please help !
I also have a Problem.
I tried going back to stock from LOS 14.1. Now I am stuck on the 5 seconds screen, it won't continue.
The files I used were the Nougat B10 Files :-/

Enter the recovery, it should be the stock one (turn the phone off, then hold vol+ and power). Then download a stock B10 file (not the twrp flashable one) and install it from an SD card
No its not the stock one, its still TWRP.
I only flashed Bootstack and stock system (step 2). The reboot afterwards doesnt work
What do you mean by "a stock B10 file"? There are so many files types :-/
I am not quite sure what I should do now, do I have to do the EDL route? That one sounds confusing as well.
EDIT: I tried using B08 Files and now the reboot prompt in TWRP tells me there is no os installed.
Will I, like naveen09y, end up without TWRP if I reboot now?

Probably, so just don't. You should just wipe system and data, flash the bootstack, then the system. Also follow raystef's guide to "remove bootloader unlocked inscription"
I now managed to get the phone working with EDL flash of MM B10.
But I cant relock the bootloader :-/
Bascially my bootloader is gone so I cant reboot to it and do "fastboot oem lock".
Why is this such a hassle

You didn't follow my instructions. Follow raystef's removed unlocked bootloader inscription and you'll get fastboot back. You can do that with the phone on.
Don't relock it unless it's really necessary (i.e. warranty). If you're gonna sell it just follow that guide and don't relock, the 5 seconds screen will disappear and it'll look like it's locked
I cant follow the guide because I can't access the bootloader...
Also the TWRP files in https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/how-to/guide-install-twrp-unlock-bl-flash-t3517379 this guide (step 6) are no longer accessible.

What? Lol
First of all - you are basically installing the bootloader with raystef's guide, so I have no idea why you want to enter it...
You have to enter TWRP and follow the guide from there.
The guide from Controllerboy is basically the same guide but it also has instructions on other things (i.e. unlock etc.). I don't know what you are trying to accomplish with it. Use EDL Tool by djkuz if you want to install TWRP (it is explained there how to do that).
Phone was rooted with Magisk 16, I was on AEX Android 8.1 ROM. I'm trying to return to stock and relock bootloader.
I wiped everything, I flashed A2017G-N-B10-bootstack and A2017G-N-B10-stocksystem from "TWRP flashable Bootstack/Stocksystem Images" section. Booted to system and now phone is stuck on the ZTE POWERED BY android boot screen. 5 minutes there. Is it normal?
Edit: Got tired of waiting and kept pressing the power button. After doing so, the phone reboots but same thing. And I can't access TWRP with VOL INCREASE + POWER BUTTON.... VOL DECREASE + POWER BUTTON takes me to Factory Test Mode.

The best way to return to stock is via EDL, for example MiFlash or EDL tool. If you have an U, then DrakenFX's zips can do that, it happened to me already. Usually G zips like raystef's work just fine.
Try using Magisk instead of SuperSU, just in case. Use 16.7

Hi, I'm on official global ROM 12.5.3.0 RKGMIXM
And i turned on OEM Unlocking in developer mode yesterday (Which is confuse me a little a guide said i have to wait for 7 days for this but mine is nothing it's just switched to on)
OEM Unlocking is only one of the steps, but it does not unlock the bootloader. File a request with Xiaomi.
unlock bootloader
i recommend only booting to twrp, not flashing it

Aside of that instruction, actually is it 'dangerous' if we install the TWRP? What 'bad things' would/may happen if we install it? (Because I see some guides about installing it on RN10, like this one for example, and I was almost followed that guide).

Risk of bootloop and fastboot loop... because this twrp is modded to be booted and then flashed (you can found the option in advanced)
One time i faced a fastboot loop once i flashed directly the twrp , that's why i recommend booting it first and then , flashing

Please confirm these;
*So we can:
Use TWRP only temporarily, only to root the phone (by flashing Magisk v23),
and then,
back to using the stock recovery on our RN10 afterward,
even if the RN10 is already rooted?
**If the answer for my question above is yes, then (in RN10 condition of Unlocked Boot Loader, Rooted, Stock MIUI & Stock Recovery) ;
Would we still get official OTA Update from Xiaomi (and can download and install the update- as how it's like before rooting the phone)?
Thank you in advance
It's an unnecessarily complicated procedure. Just flash a modified boot.img for your Miui using fastboot from your PC. If you don't have the ability to modify the boot.img on another rooted phone yourself, request a modified boot.img with the exact update version of your Miui here.

Thanks again, (and maybe I will try your suggestion later).. but (sorry)... your reply doesn't answer my questions.
(I think my questions are very clear and probably very easy to be answered by someone who has experience/knowledge about it (like you?).. no?)
Forgive my nooby questions.
But I really want to know as much as I can (especially about the answer for some questions I have inside my head about the matter, like I asked above),.. before executing doing something about my phone.
oops... I'm sorry for double send
In the past I rooted Miui and then continued to get OTA updates. However, this cannot be confirmed for all versions of Miui. Each new update changes the phone software and so what worked before may not work today.

Hi, I'm unlocked my phone and installed the orange fox it's the custom recovery right? Because it say so.
If yes, By Flash Magisk ZIP how to do that? Please explain the detailed steps, Thanks.
First of all, I would like to point out that Magisk (root) is a security risk. Without understanding the issues, the phone is more easily exploitable.
To install, just download the magisk file with the ZIP extension. In recovery, select the install option and select this file. Once installed, exit recovery and boot the system. Once the system boots, use magisk and complete the installation it requests.

I usually did that along with rooting with my android phones before this.
Edit:
Update:
It's ok now I understand how, after watching this video.
Hello all,
It's a long time that's i haven't post a thread here but i have a question.I have a Poco with MIUI Global 9.6 Stable (9.6.25.0) for ROM with a Android Version 8.1.0 OPM 171019.011 with root acces, unlocking bootloader and TWRP 3.3.0-0 installed.
I would upgrade my phone to something "newer" (A ROM with Android 12 if possible) and conserv the root access and my apps.
I have read that now ,we should have 3 files to do that (firmware,system and vendor) to make a wipe and install new ROM with TWRP.
So my question:
-Is it possible to upgrade Android 8.1.0 to Android 12 witn a new ROM? (i have read something about kernel in Android12 but haven't understand all)
-Have i missed some steps or just download files,boot TWRP,wipe and install newer ROM+firmware and vendor appropriate is good?
-Which ROM do you recommend?
Thanks for the previous answers.

It's not possible to switch from stock ROM to custom without doing clean install. You will have to root again.
First update to latest Official Stock ROM, then take backup of your files to your PC or to SDCard (if you have one) , flash to latest Official TWRP and check my POCO F1 Ultimate Collection & Guides. You can find everything there. I have awarded recommended ROMs in my collection.
Feel free to ask if you have any question regarding the guides.
Thanks for the answer.I have begin to read your guides.
If i understand good,it's not possible to conserv my root,unlock bootloader and twrp when i upgrade to android 12? Automaticaly i should root again my phone and restore with titanium backup my files,contact,....?

First you need to take backup of your files to PC or External SDCard.
Then you should update to latest version of MIUI via OTA if it's possible or via TWRP (you can use the stock recovery rom to do it via twrp). (You can also use my guides for clean install stock rom)
Then you should unlock your bootloader if it's not already unlocked.
Then flash latest Official TWRP.
Then flash latest firmware (not vendor) just to make sure you are on the latest. (You should be on latest firmware after updating to the latest MIUI version)
Then Wipe everything + format data according to my guides and flash the ROM you want. If you choose A12 Pixel Experience or crDroid keep in mind that these ROMs use their own recovery because these are encrypted by default ROMs and TWRP can't handle the decryption of A12 encrypted ROMs yet. So to make OTA updates and that stuff work correctly devs of these ROMs decide to use their own recovery which can handle the decryption of encrypted roms and as result to make OTA update work fine. Check the installation instructions of these roms in their threads. (Afterwards you can use adb sideload to flash stuff using these recoveries)
After that, flash Magisk since you want root.
Then you can restore titanium backup if you want.
OK i follow your instruction.Thanks
Hello retrial,
I have now updating my phone to MIUI Global 12.0.3 Stable with Android Version 10QKQ1.My phone is not yet rooted and now he is encrypted.The recovery is now Mi-Recovery 3.0
I have unlock again my bootloader.
Now to follow your instruction,i should flash the latest TWRP.
I have take TWRP-3.6.0_9-0-berylium in your guide.
I think i should do Fastboot Method because i'm now in Mi-Recovery?i'm right?
No problem with the encryption?
Thanks.

Yes use Fastboot Method to flash TWRP. No problem with encryption.
After that follow my clean install custom rom guide to flash the ROM you want. Also please check the instructions in the threads of ROMs you want to flash. A12 crDroid and PE use their own recoveries.
Basically tell me which ROM you want to flash to help you exactly with steps.
Hello retrial,
i have a problem to install TWRP-3.6.0-9-0 on my pocophone.Everything working fine but in step 8 of your guide,i can't find my twrp.img that i have copied in 2 different case to test :
8. Boot into Recovery by typing in cmd: fastboot boot <recovery_filename>.img (The file may not be named identically to what stands in this command, so adjust accordingly and write the full path of it, check the example below).
This command will not flash permantly the recovery, it will just temporary boot into it and afterwards you will flash permantly the twrp.img you copied into your Internal Storage or SDcard in recovery partition.
For example: fastboot boot C:\Users\Retrial\Desktop\twrp-3.5.2_9-0-beryllium.img
Have you an idea to why i cannot find my twrp.img in the boot mode?

I have all the steps on my guide. Please read it carefully. It boots back to mi recovery because you haven't flash TWRP yet just booted into. After boot into TWRP u need to flash twrp in recovery section so it will stay after reboot.
Please read the steps.
Download portable Minimal ADB and Fastboot and latest Official TWRP recovery.
Open cmd from minimal adb and fastboot and write:
fastboot boot and the path you have TWRP.
Example:
Code:
fastboot boot C:\Users\Retrial\Desktop\twrp-3.6.0_9-0-beryllium.img
Then proceed with the rest steps in my guide. Connect ur device to pc while u are booted into TWRP and copy TWRP.img to your device. Then in TWRP press Install Image and select the twrp.img u just copied into ur device. Select recovery and done.
I have made a video to show you what happened (sorry for the bad quality and the moove) :
I think a video is easyest to understand my problem.For information my bootloader is unlock and usb debugging ok.

Hmm strange, probably of MIUI. Anyway since you are going to flash custom rom, when u flash twrp in recovery go back and select wipe and wipe everything (read my clean install guide), go back press format data type yes, and then reboot to TWRP.
EDIT: I just saw u rebooted to system. That's not what we want. Press reboot to recovery.
i reboot first to bootloader after have flash the twrp.img in recovery.That's only the second time that i reboot to system to use the normal mode of the phone and reboot after to recovery mode to show you that mi recovery is back.

The TWRP flashed correctly. You overlap it again by pressing reboot to recovery from MIUI updater.
Don't do that...do the combination to boot to TWRP after flashing it. Power+Volume Up.
And continue with clean install steps in my guide to flash custom rom.
In my guide I write nowhere to boot to MIUI and press from MIUI Updater reboot to recovery, please stick to my guide and you will be fine.
Poco f1 update not
Hello XDA developers, I'm in urgent and I have a really big problem. It sounds funny but, I deleted my realme ui recovery ,_,
I was trying to install PPUI 4.1 on my Realme 7 but I saw a tutorial that you have to erase the recovery to install TWRP. Please, I need a solution of how can I get it back. I also tried flashing a lot of recoveries and their vbmeta but nothing works. Sadly.
Edit: I'm on RMX2151_11_C.17 | Realme UI 2.0 Latest version

You sure? I'm on RMUI2.0 and how do I flash it? Can I type 'fastboot boot recovery.img'? Are my data will be wiped?
Sorry for a lot of questions, haha

From what I read before, fastboot boot will only boot to that recovery file temporarily but I haven't tried it myself. It should be
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
I'm not 100% sure it will work without problems, but if it did, your data will not be wiped.
I suggest you wait for someone else to answer coz I'm not expert. I only learned from guides in the telegram group.

You can try, first, if fastboot works in your device, type adb reboot fastboot, once the script ends, quickly disconnect device from your PC and again reconnect it, you will be redirected to fastboot, if the bootloader is unlocked, you could flash it using fastboot commands.
If you can´t get it to work then you can flash it using SPFT https://spflashtool.com/, put the recovery, in the same folder, with the attached files. All the sources to can use the tool, here https://www.getdroidtips.com/bypass-mediateks-sp-flash-tool-authentication-protection/

Most of the custom roms I've seen requires formatting data. Just to be sure have you unlocked bootloader already? That requires wiping data iirc.
If not then nothing will really work with what you're doing.

What you are saying now is totally different from what you firstly posted.
Installing a custom ROM doesn't require a stock recovery (just in case you are confusing), and obviously, to can switch from a stock ROM to a custom ROM, that has a total different basement, it's mandatory to format data, anyway, you should back up your data previously to do so.

Then you can root your phone 1st then backup your files to a computer and use migrate backup to backup app data. Note that migrate backup is limited to 4gb. Then do the fastboot flash i mentioned before

Why you are saying that you cannot install a working recovery, I don't know of any attempt you did to achieve it.
A stock recovery is not needed to install a custom ROM, and even you can't install a custom ROM using a stock recovery.
If you want to join, flashing your device and stuff like this, better learn how to use SPFT, also you have this tool https://github.com/bkerler/mtkclient, this can save your device, if something in the process goes wrong.

OK, then what you are trying to install is an "old" Android 10 based ROM, if this is the case, then just download a stock Android 10 ROM, flash it through SPFT, then use SPFT to flash the custom recovery, transfer the custom ROM to your external SD Card (preferably) or sideload it, through recovery, and flash it. In the process you need to unlock bootloader, and immediately to flash the custom recovery, boot to it, using hardware buttons.

Alright so, it might sound funny but I think I fixed it. I was playing with my downloaded recoveries until I downloaded the stock recovery, it is compatible but when I do fastboot reboot recovery I get stuck at Orange State for like 30min and it boots me into the recovery so does anyone know a solution for this? And thank you for everything and sorry for wasting y'all's time. Sincereley.

You have to boot to recovery using hardware buttons (PWR + vol. down), in regard to orange state, this is absolutely normal when bootloader was unlocked, it's not an issue but a cosmetic thing.
