Need help - how to get from CM13 to CyanogenOS (Stock? - Zuk Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
I need your help - I installed the CM13 official, but I'm not happy with it and want to go back to CyanogenOS (Stock). I already downlaoded several files, but the sideload fails with "incompatible file system" even after factory reset.
My guess is that the CM13 bootloader needs to be downgraded, but I don't know how to do that. But that guess may be wrong....
Any help appreciated - device not working right now except for recovery & fastboot.

Have you tried with qfil?

Just download the cm-12.1-YOG4PAS3OH-ham-signed-fastboot.zip and extract the recovery. Download cm-12.1-YOG4PAS3OH-ham-signed.zip too. Flash the COS stock recovery with fastboot. Then boot your phone up and do an adb reboot recovery. Go to adb sideload mode and do an adb sideload cm-12.1-YOG4PAS3OH-ham-signed.zip in Terminal or cmd. Wait until it's finished. You should be back on stock rom. To download the file just google for Cyanogen OS support. You will find the files to download.

Hello guys.
I have successfully ported TWRP 3.0.0-0 for our Smart Prime 6.
It's 100% working !!
There are NO BUGS !! :good:
DOWNLOAD
NEW LINK: DOWNLOAD
________________________________________
How to install​​
Via app:
1) Download TWRP 3.0.0-0 from the link above and place it on internal storage of your phone.
2) Download Flashify app from Google Play Store.
3) Open Flashify app.
4) Grant root permissions.
5) Click "Recovery image" and then click "Choose a file"
6) Navigate to the folder where you placed TWRP 3.0.0-0 and choose the .IMG file.
7) Press "Yup!" button and wait.
8) After a while the phone will require reboot. So click "reboot" button.
9) Phone will reboot and automatically boot into TWRP, so you can press reboot to system.
10) Enjoy!
Special thanks to Oneb1t for modded .fstab file! :highfive:
edit: you can use Flashfire app too instead of Flashify, but it's not recommended, because the latest version of the Flashfire app is not flashing properly.
Brilliant! Thank you so much! Do you know any custom ROM what is better than the factory ROM?
There is no custom ROM for this phone yet.
But I'm trying to make LITE ROM.

Do you think it's easier/possible to adapt a ROM from a similar device like say, the Alcatel
Pop 2 (5) Premium ? I don't know if there's any ROM for that phone tho, but since it's branded as Alcatel you might get more support from the community here than by using Vodafone's name.
Hello, Demonlord6.
I have tried to make a stock flashable ROM via dumping the system folder and the boot.img file, but without success.
It does not boot properly.. when I tried to flash it without dalvik/system wipe everything was as before.
When I tried to wipe /system and dalvik first and then flash the ROM, it causes bootloop.
So now I'm trying to fix this issue..
I don't know where the problem is.
So when this issue will be solved I will try to build a ROM from Alcatel phones with same specs.

Hey, Andreno306
I don't know much about Rom's in that level of expertise I'm afraid :/ but I did some digging and came across this simple tutorial on XDA:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2387941
I imagine it does not work for every single device out there, at least not with modifying stuff after, but it might be a good starting point I think, in fact I would try to actually make one myself had I a working PC currently at home. But even if I did I had no way of testing it because this is currently my daily driver phone.
Just wanted to say that I'm also very interested in getting a slim ROM for this device. I can't offer any expertise I'm afraid! Just wanted to show that there are people interested in your project.
:highfive:

I have one
https://mega.nz/#!tMJD3B4T!f6m2ELYCVupqGCcN2aGbkrNzEqijLu7au-7usEfeVL0
But I recommend to restore it with the flashify app, because that's how the backup was made.
If, for some reason, you don't/can't restore it, then you can always try Sugar on the PC which basically restores everything to factory settings (recovery, kernel, etc, it all gets reset)

Sorry there about the bootloop but glad u could restore it from TWRP, maybe it was because we have different ROM versions ?

Yeap, that's not the same version as my ROM, mine is not 130FNN etc. Maybe that's why it didn't work

Sorry for the stupid question but... does it works on Smart Prime 7 too?
Has anyone installed that linked ROM? It seems to be what we are looking for... a slim debloated rom.
I presume we need to be rooted, install this TWRP, then flash that ROM?
It mentions unlocking the bootloader, I dont think I've seen any info anywhere about unlocking the bootloader.
Can anyone give a quick lowdown on all the steps required to install that ROM please?
Hi everyone, I discovered that Elephone Trunk and Smart Prime 6 have (almost) identical specs: https://www.devicespecifications.com...ison/c584481c6
So it would be great to "port" (or build ?) the official Nougat-OmniROM for Trunk to VF-895N: http://dl.omnirom.org/trunk/
Last but not least, here's official Vodafone Smart Prime 6 sources: Vodafone_Smart_prime_6_20150413.tar.xz
TWRP for vodafone smart max 4 990N (coolpad 8890u).
I tried this recovery image for vodafone smart max 4 990N (coolpad 8890u).
The phone is in a bootloop state. I think i have usb debugging enabled already.
So, in fastboot mode i can see the device in my pc in adb fastboot cmd.
Im trying to ''fastboot boot recovery.img" but it stops in ''booting..''.
Dont know whats the problem but for sure i can not find a specific twrp image for this device.
If i enter fastboot oem device-info it says ''(bootloader) Device unlocked: true''.
Any ideas ?
hi i was wondering if you could share how you did this or if you can make one for the Vodafone smart n9 (VFD720) it would help a lot of people out looking for this
Needed to root a Vodafone Smart Prime 6 (VF 895N) (got it from a friend because it became unresponsive from all the updated google play stuff ) to get linux-deploy running. Just wanted to leave a big thank you here for Adreno306 for his TRWP 3.0.0-0. it did the job very well!
Only the procedure to get it installed differed quite a bit for me, since Flashify is no longer available.
I wanted to preserve boot and just flash trwp to recover, what worked quite well.
The first thing I did was to boot the phone manually in recovery mode (Power+Vol up) and reset it to factory settings from there. It takes a little while. Then follow the setup, go to phone settings, enable developer mode and set usb debugging. If "unlock oem" is not available there, reboot into recovery again, set unlock there and reboot into bootloader.
The prerequisites are adb and fastboot, both must work. Means adb devices and fastboot devices must show the phone. What can make problems under win10 as it sometimes does not detect the phone in bootloader mode. An actual google usb driver is needed, as provided by google.
For me adb worked well, but when rebooted into bootloader with adb reboot bootloader, fastboot didnt detect the phone. With the phone still connected, the windows device manager showed an unknown device with and exclamation mark (!). Right click, install driver, select driver manually, select driver from device list, mark all devices (first entry) and click "disk", then point to the usb driver director and select "ADB fastboot driver". ( A more comprehensive description is available here )
Once adb and fastboot detect the device, it is time to prepare it. Boot to system (normal operation) first. Make sure that the TRWP 3.0.0-0.img is renamed to trwp.img and then
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot devices
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot boot trwp.img
Now the phone should show the trwp menu, set it up to root the phone and install SuperSU. Reboot into bootloader and
fastboot flash recovery trwp.img
fastboot reboot
Verify with adb reboot recovery, you should see trwp now. Reboot to system.
Now finally go into the app selector, start SuperSU, and root the phone. SuperSu uses trwp recovery mode to install its image and root is done.
Again, big thanks for providing the TRWP image!

I need help with flashify... recovery deleted

Good morning, I go to ask for help, I tell you.
My ZUK Z1 from "origin" 5.0 or 5.1 (I do not have it in front right now) and with a recovery of CM, when installing with flashify a TWRP, a version 3.0 .... a very curious thing happened to me. It tells me that it is successfully installed, but not only has CM recovery been deleted, but it has not installed the TWRP ...
I tried to restart in recovery mode and, of course not having it, it is a step that is skipped and restarted completely.
I have not tried with ADB or anything like that, I wanted to do it directly with the mobile but I am seeing that there is no way ...
It may be that if I install with flashify a TWRP 2.8 ... an older recovery, will it install?
Or should I look for a CM to install ...
Or the only solution is to do it through PC ...
A little light please. Thank you.
Will suggest you to flash twrp 3.1 with adb
Thanks for your quick answer, I´ll try to flash it with adb
Anyone knows where to get an older version of twrp, like 2.8.... ?
I would like to try again with flashify

Help install OxygenOS

Hey. I long story short - I have wiped OS, and the only thing that I can do is use fastboot and also install TWRP or stock recovery.
I found OxygenOS file, but cant install it as there are problems sideloading the file to the device, it looks like ADB drivers on PC are not recognizable. Can someone help me to get back OS? Thanks
Tried a lot of things but anyway nothing happens.

Push the OOS rom via usb to the phone, command: adb push namerom /scard
Next time check the drivers installation result first.
I wish I knew the reply above mine.
How I fixed my issue:
I installed the latest TWRP 3.1.1 in one of the installation guides on this forum for the OP5. Make sure you pick the version that is called the "last latest build". I was able to flash a full zip for 4.5.2 and it worked!

I had problems with ADB drivers, anyway got back to life:
1) booted to TWRP
2) adb push ".zip" /sdcard/.
3) tried installing it at TWRP, no success, so get back stock recovery and flashed the file there.
So my issue is resolved. thanks!

[SOLVED] Huawei nova bricked

I folowed this tutorial https://forum.xda-developers.com/nova-plus/development/rom-aospextended-v4-6-t3717372 and all flashing was fine. Due to some inconveniences of this new flashed rom i decided to restore to default rom. I extracted recovery and update.app version Can-L11 B396 i think from firmware finder and flased with adb this recovery. After that, it asked me to do an factory reset, i did it, but it wont boot any of huawei or Aosp Extended. The main problem i have is i can`t acces any more my phone with adb terminal, maybe after flashing the new original recovery usb debbuging reverted to un-enabled. How can I do now? Thanks in advance.

Check this post.
I cant access my phone via adb or twrp recovery. I wonder why. Before flashing a stock recovery all Was fine, adb Was connecting with no problem.

Try to flash the TWRP again with fastboot.
PS: I don't understand how you people end up like this. It never happened to me.
I cant, adb cant be connected to device. Says null operation.
finally i succeed to revert o stock rom. Now i have on About phone CAN-L11C432B397, Emui 5.0 and Android 7.0. One question please, I dont see anymore the Update system tab or something, "Actualizator" on romanian language. Is that normal? How i can check for updates?

You need to install the other zip too which has the word "data_full" at zip's name or something like that.
EDIT: @campeadore, i suggest you to edit the thread name and add "[SOLVED]" at begin and write the way you've fixed your phone (the solution), so it'll help other people who might run into the same problem as you.
I`ll do it as soon i fully resolve the problem. I followed your link and everything went fine at step 1 (Go back to EMUI 4.1 (MM). System is booting, but system update is not working. So, i want to flash EMUI 5, but can-l11c432b330 or can-l11c432b396 cant be updated, around 45% gives an error. The only version who work is can-l11c432b320 but i dont have update_full_CAN-L11_hw_eu, only the first update.zip.

Newer / newest firmware downloaded from Firmware Finder needs to be approved by Huawei and that can take some time. It's failing to install because it wasn't approved. I've read this in past somewhere.
Try B381 or B382 as i've always installed that one when i've went back to EMUI 5.
Yes, i did it now with can-l11c432b330. I think my mistake was trying to flash to EMUI5 with usb cable connected. With cable off all went fine like a charm. Now i do all approved updates with system update. Thank you so much man, really appreciated.
Seeking help: I have a smartphone huawei nova lite plus (TRT LX1) that fails to restart. It goes continuously in a loop. Entering recovery only the first 2 functions come out: wipe wash factory reset and wipe wash partition. Then using eRecovery from PC with the USB cable, proceed up to a certain point and then not continue. I think it's in soft brick. I definitely need the right software for flashing, stock roms and usb drivers. Where can I find them? Many thanks

Stuck in Bootloop no OS, please help.

Hi guys,
I have been reading similar threads and trying to find a solution but could not find what could help and ran into other issues. Hope someone can help me fix this.
I was trying to flash a custom ROM. had the device unlocked and installed twrp using adb.
It was a mistake to not back up. I tried to flash the firmware + extendedUI rom + magisk. Only magisk gave some error.
tried to reboot and got stuck in bootloop. Entered Twrp tried to do it again so wiped data,system,cache and then realised my folder with the rom disapeared. So now no OS and not sure what to do.
I was trying to use adb sideload to push the new zips on the device but the sideload just disconnects at 8% Understood that might drivers might be at fault. . Been trying to find and update drivers and might have done some mistakes there, as chose to update unknown device automatically with device manager and now it disappeared as well.
I read about recovering with Miflashtool but got confused whether thats the right way.
I would prefer to install a custom rom like the ExtendedUI or AOSPextended.
