Q & A
Q: Could you make a video because I don't understand the guide?
A: No, there won't be a video because if you don't understand the guide you will most likely harm your device.
Q: Can I flash kk roms on lp bootloader?
A: Yes, but the other way around only works with stock (based) roms.
Q: Do I need to unlock the bootloader?
A: No, if you only update the bootloader you don't need to unlock, if you want twrp or such a thing this is required.
Q: I have no signal, how to fix it?
A: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60740579&postcount=183
Q: I have a XT1063 and no signal, how do I restore it?
A: Use these files: https://mega.co.nz/#!QFonVR4J!dhNw1kwj9GBc5vh14s-SLw3VeCa34IboIQlAZ13Fjq8
Q: My bootloader is 4882 or higher do I need to update?
A: No, this guide makes your bootloader 4882, ( downgrading is impossible ) so you are good
Q: I got success every time, but I am still on the old bootloader, what went wrong?
A: You need admin rights for these commands since fastboot otherwise won't recognize the device with correct permissions. On windows run cmd as admin, on linux use sudo in front of all lines.
Q: Something is not working, were do I find my country specific files?
A: This has all official firmware, you can find the right one for you and use the files from that zip. Sadly the server is very slow. Now faster mirror

AFH files are up

As I've said here, be cautious when doing this to a brazilian XT1068 (not sure if it's the same for XT1069).

Does updating to official UK lp ota with locked boot loader automatically update it to lp once unlocked or do I still need to run this?

Can you please be more specific in what doesnt work and what the error is so I can help you

@gregor160300 i think it's not Bootloader related.... because i can flash ACIP without error.
But when i try to flash PAC or the latest CM nightly there comes "Error updater binary in zip"...... I'm using the latest twrp.

For as far as I know it is indeed not bootloader related, I had the same error on my old device and still dont know how to fix it, sorry.

Yes , this is due boot loader.
Gregor open the updater-script ( cm & pac ) and you will find why

Now I found the line I think: assert(getprop("ro.bootloader") == "0x4882" || abort("This package supports bootloader(s): 0x4882; this device has bootloader " + getprop("ro.bootloader") + "."); don't know how to fix it but you might want to try one of the stock recovery tools with your correct firmware and then install twrp again.

booting failed with the 4.3 update using NRT wug soft ... help

HI dudes,
it seems i screwed up ...
I was in 4.2.2 and I wanted to go to 4.3 (my tab was rooted and unlock)
I decided to use "back to stock" from the wug software (with the 4.3 file) and now
I've got "booting error"
START: booting failed
RECOVERY : booting failed
bootloader : I've got the android character
what can i do now ?
thanks
You've erased your ROM and recovery before the failed flash. You can describe in more detail on the status of your bootloader?
well ... yes ...
booloader version 4.23
lock state unlocked
fastboo mode
product name tilapia
So your bootloader is fine. You can just reinstall all the stock images with fastboot.

DO you have a tutorial ?
Can I try with Nexus root kit with "back to stock" 4.2.2 (and what to choose in current status ? normal or soft bricked ?)
thanks anyway.

Download stock package.
Unzip contents to C:\Program Files\WugFresh Development\data.
Open toolkit > Advanced Utilities > Launch CMD > "flash-all.bat" will restore your device to 4.3 stock.
thanks but do I have to use the 4.3 stock or the 4.2.2 stock like I was before the failed flash ?
You can flash any version you want (4.1.2, 4.2.2, 4.3).
Thanks a lot.
last question :
what kind of model should i use in the configuration ?
4.3 or 4.2.2 ? is it important ?
That will flash all the images. You can flash each image individually.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img

You need to extract everything in the stock image package including "flash-all.bat" to your ADB/Fastboot folder.

it appears that i need to have an updated bootloader ... i currently have 4.18 and it says the update requires 4.23 ... but when i tried to flash the 4.23 bootloader it says that it sends it to the device just fine but i get the failed message when it tries to write the bootloader ... giving me this message FAILED <remote: invalid Partition Name.> ... <FRUSTRATED> lol ... also i appreciate all your help
UPDATE
ok i finally got it .. i just went and downloaded the factory images for jdq39 (the image that used the bootloader v. 4.18) installed that and then let the tablet update itself... thats what i call a crash course in fastboot lol .. learned the hard way but i think i somewhat understand it now

Update to 5.1.1 without loosing data

Hello together,
these were the steps to update to 5.1.1 (LMY47X) from 5.0.1 (LRX22C).
It was working for me - without loosing data.
Notes:
OTA didn't work cause of having custom recovery / root.
Maybe it was also in another thread here - but I didn't saw it
It work for me (WIFI-Version) - but might kill your device :crying:
from post #4: In case you using fastboot no very often - look here for more details: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60697487&postcount=26 - Thanks the.teejster
Steps
Make sure you have working fastboot on your PC
Download Factory Image and unzip it
Also unzip the included image-volantis-lmy47x.zip
Boot your Nexus 9 into fastboot (Shutdown device; Hold Vol-UP + Power on)
Flash bootloader & reboot
Code:
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-flounder-3.44.1.0123.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Erase everthing but data partition
Code:
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase vendor
Flash the file (found in the unpacked image-volantis*zip)
Code:
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash cache cache.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash vendor vendor.img
Reboot device
Optional: Root it again.
Download CF-Autoroot
Use the root-Scripts
Hope it helps and works for you.
One question. I am rooted and have twrp recovery. I this case : Why should we update recovery?
Alternatively, you could remove the "-w" flag from the flash-all.sh script and run it without losing data
A few key prerequisite items are missing in the OP..
I wrote up a similar "how to" over here :

Hello,
I always upgraded android manually flashing while in fastboot.
Lastly i upgraded to 5.0.2 flawless, then yesterday i download 5.1.1 image and flashed as usual, to not lose data, bootloader/system/boot.
Now everytime i boot my tablet i get this error
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

And lot of apps force close (gmail opens, but when i try to open a mail fc, eurosport same, opens but when i reada news fc, and many other)while others works flawless.
I tried wiping everything, also userdata, but problem not solved.
What can i do?
I read here that someone when upgrade android also erase "vendor", it's the only thing i didnt do, but i never did it.
Please help, finally with 5.1.1 this device flies but now i can't use it!
Thanks.
What about Vendor and recovery ?
Please see my instructions linked about 2 posts up. Follow those exactly and you shouldn't lose any data and the upgrade should be fine.

try fastboot flash vendor vendor.img
For the fc you are experiencing, it is possibly due to the modified ART in 5.1.1 or you check if you have the latest Android Webview
I just thought I would throw this out here in case anyone needs or wants to know...
You do not need to flash the bootloader to upgrade from 5.0.2 to 5.1.1, I can not tell you if this will work coming from 5.0.1
Also after first boot and you flash twrp, you can boot to recovery then immediately reboot back to system. Twrp will install su for you. You'll just need to update the su apk in the market. No need to mess with any kind of su zip anymore.
That's all I have to add to an already great guide.

have you checked the partition.tbl file? there's some editing as i have red a couple of days ago. it's a known error on some raw firmwares. but honestly i haven't even started using Zenfone yet coz I'm still stuck at boot 😂
and im guessing you're on fake Chinese firmware too is that right? those are firmware versions 2.99 with fake serial. reference was your screenshots uploaded. but correct me if I'm wrong
If u need to unlock bootloader
use auto unlock go to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-5/general/recovery-twrp-2-8-6-0-asus-zenfone-5-t3136263

Download and install TWRP recovery. Special thanks to @shakalaca for the first TWRP builds for our device!
Warning!
Always have your original firmware, recovery and boot files in case things don't go as expected
Backup all of your personal data!
Prerequisites
Adb and Fastboot installed. I recommend you to install it from HERE.
Drivers installed. Try using these or Universal ADB Drivers
Download
Grab the recovery img file from any of the mirrors:
MEGA (Shakalaca builds)
AndroidFileHost
Try it!
This is for you if you just want to temporary boot into TWRP recovery without replacing your current installed recovery. In case you need to flash a single zip, or just becuase it's your will not to install it!
Connect your device to your computer and boot it into bootloader mode. Turn off the device and press Volume up + Power button. Or by using adb command:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
Now open a terminal window inside the folder where the twrp recovery img file is placed and run the command:
Code:
fastboot boot <twrp img file name>
This command will NOT replace yout current recovery, it will temporary boot into TWRP recovery. This means once you are done using it, reboot your device and you will still have your current recovery untouched.​Install it!
In order to install TWRP and replace your current recovery follow the next instructions.
Connect your device to your computer and boot it into bootloader mode as described in the previous step. Now open a terminal window inside the folder where the twrp recovery img file is placed and run the command:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery <twrp img file name>
Done! Enjoy your fresh installed TWRP recovery!​

Thanks
Just a heads up, With shaka's TWRP for the zenfone 3 zs550kl, I recieved ERROR 7 when flashing the Android 7 zip file. Flashed stock recovery and everything was fine.
Tried after that to boot from TWRP and it never booted into android, gave it a good 20mins. Figured you might want this information here.
Thanks for the development!
Hello, i tried fastboot boot <twrp img file name> but FAILED (remote: bootimage: incomplete or not signed) can you help me please?

So unlocked bootloader is not needed to flash twrp and then root?

Is there anyone, who flashed succesfully and booted in a custom rom with this recovery?
Flash the recovery is ok, but boot in a new rom with this is not working for me
You might have to disable secureboot, dm-verity

I have to assume this is the case. I'm planning to buy the phone within the next month.
This recovery did not work for me. I was able to flash it and run it, but could not install any roms after formatting.
Luckily the recovery made by 7to ended up working fine

Hello, i was able to flash Xiaomi.eu 8.8.3 MIUI version with this TWRP, thanks author! But it seem to have problems with F2FS a was not able to format data and cache to F2FS, look at the attachment, any thoughts?
This version didn't work for flashing treble GSI, but the 7to version did.

IF YOUR BOOTLOADER IS LOCKED,but you wanna try it
You can use
Code:
fastboot boot [PATH TO THE IMAGE FILE YOU DOWNLOADED]
to boot the recovery(not flash recovery)
(not sure 100% success)
Do anything on YOUR OWN RISK

Has anyone tried to flash TWRP without unlocking the Mi8? (i'll try with v3.2.3)
Can I brick my phone if I try?
Does it include a function to resize system partitions?
If I get to flash it with the bootloader locked.... Will I be able to further flash any ROM without unlocking?
Can I also flash TWRP with MiFlash?
Regards

Not Recommend to modify anything before unlock bootloader
If you just do without modify anything except /data/, it will be fine(try it without flash it)
This Recovery is for Mi8 SE(SE,NOT MI8), and THIS recovery doesnt have a function to resize system partition
you can flash mi8's twrp recovery without unlock(technically,NOT SURE 100% SUCCESS) flash it via recovery(boot the recovery ,and flash recovery in recovery )
You can flash any third party rom Until you unlock bootloader (or flash modified bootloader like this (not let you flash this))
You can flash any recovery via MiFlash(in fastboot(not sure) mode or in 9008 flash mode),it will not check your files(NOT SURE it will boot successfully)

First you use
fastboot boot [recovery file]
to boot recovery(now the phone goes into recovery)
then use the recovery(you booted) flash the recovery fileinto your phone(you selected recovery file will replace the stock one)
TECHNICALLY, it will successfully flash in and work fine(not fine for miui's ota)
