[TUTORIAL] Change region/ID to International in the most of Meizu models

Change ID/region for Meizu MX5, MX4 Pro, m2 note, m1 note, m2, m3 note, m3s and Pro 6
Great thanks to mrpajax from MeizuPolska.pl for preparing this tutorial, I am only translating it (with his agree).
We must have root permissions activated on our phone (settings -> root...) and our os must be not newer than 5.1.3.0A.
At the begining, we must download following:
SuperSU - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.supersu
BusyBox - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=stericson.busybox
FlymeLocalizationFree - https://apkpure.com/flymelocalizationfree/com.FLCompanyInc.flyme.flyme_localization
FlymeLocalizationChangeID - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.FLCompany.flyme.flyme_localization_id - for Pro 6, m3s, m3 note and newer models
After downloading, we run apps 1 and 2, and install all required things.
Next we run FlymeLocalizationFree (or Pro).
We confirm reading instruction on first prompt, and on 2nd we click left button.
We select 2nd option from the top (it ends with "I" letter).
We confirm reading warning and we select our device.
After all will be done, our phone should restart.
Now we are able to install Global firmware (download from www.flymeos.com), and receive OTA updates.
NOTICE
After phone restart we must download G firmware and install it manually. If you will have "firmware corrupt" error, try to do the tutorial once again (some people reported that it worked after 2-3 times).

I've taken and been successful. everything is wonderful

Read carefully and do everything like in instruction. There is no possibility it won't work.

Is it true for Meizu Pro 5?

No, for Pro 5 is this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/meizu-pro-5/how-to/tutorial-change-region-id-to-t3323883

2 questions..!
1 - Need bootloader to be unlocked?
2 - this process would work on Meizu mx4 ?

1. No
2. No

There is a possibility that this will not work. I tried it on my MX5 running a clean installation of FlyMe 5.1.4.0A. Phone is rooted and SuperSU and BusyBox installed fine and the localization switch program finished and rebooted the phone as described. However when I try to install Flyme 5.1.3.0G or the original international version 4.5.2.7I, it comes out with firmware corrupt upon restart.

Try do it on clear installation of 5.1.3.0A

Didn't do any difference. Still get corrupted firmware, so downgrading to 5.1.3.0A didn't do the trick. So this method is probably not going to work for everyone.,

So try 1 more time, Flyme 5.1.2.0 or 5.1.1.0
If it won't work I will ask developer.
But, when you downgrade, don't forget about full wipe data.

Sorry man, but I changed it to Global firmware using another method, that was pretty easy as well and worked right away. So I am pretty sure that something is wrong with this tool.

I found out, that it works up to 5.1.3.0

Hey,
Can you tell the method you used?

This doesn't work for me either. I have M2mini bought from China with an A version originally installed, which I upgraded some time ago with 4.5.4I. Any help would be appreciated.

Well, many people did it this method

The following solution worked for me (I tried method #1):

I'm at RussiaNBeaR 7.3, based on stock .184 firmware. I miss the PixelMaster app in the RR (and, more precisely, XOSP - my preferred rom), so I come back to stock based. Apparently you can jump from .184 and the first MM build to this ROM (Google Translate, please dont fool me).

To unbrick your phone, try this: [Guide] Un-brick both (Soft/Hard) bricked Zenfone 2 ze550ml/ze551ml
Apparently, the custom MM ROM has the same implications the official one. I was thinking to flash raw image like the @Russiamen upgrade guide. Maybe this way the system would be closest to stock and reduce the brick chances.

Hello,
Thanks for your reply. 
 @GuilhermeXtreme is an excellent guy for his valuable support.
He tried his best to help me install CleanSTOCKLL and CLEANStockMM on my Asus Zoom device, but apparently the ROM supported by him is for ZOOA (ZE551ML)
My device is Z00X (ZX551ML)
Asus did a huge mistake (I assume) in naming roms for 2 different devices same.
On installing above ROMs which you have specified, mobile works fine but Mobile Network and Camera will not.
Infact @GuilhermeXtreme tried his best to help me for 2 days, to fix the issue.
At present I am on Stock Lollipop with stock recovery
(unrooted device)
Regards,

[ROOT] How to root Huawei P8 AndroId 6.0 Emui 4.0.3

Hello,
I've been trying to root my Huawei P8 on Android 6.0 and EMUI 4.0.3 on Build B337 (GRA-L09C33B337)
The problem is that I cannot find a root guide for EMUI 4.0.3, the closest guide I can find is for 4.0.1 and I have no idea if it will work smoothly or not. Could someone tell me if this guide (hidden link below) is going to work? If not, is there any working guide out there?
Thank you
https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p8/how-to/rooting-huawei-p8-marshmallow-emui4-0-1-t3431249

Yes, works perfectly, if you follow the instructions EXACTLY and use the latest TWRP and Super SU.
I used method A) Rooting in systemless Mode (by maintaining the original Stock-Kernel).

Thank you, it worked. I have a problem though, my Lastpass app stopped working, re-installing doesn't change a thing. What could be the issue?
