Hi,
Before all, I am not responsible if your device get bricked or something like this.
So you need to unlock the bootloader before, check this tutorial to do that : http://forum.xda-developers.com/meizu-mx/general/tutorial-unlock-bootloader-meizu-pro-5-t3303127
After that, download the twrp image here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/meizu-mx/general/recovery-twrp-3-0-meizu-pro5-t3349888
Then place the twrp file on your desktop.
Boot you Pro 5 into fastboot mode (Power+Vol down) and connect it to pc.
Launch cmd, and then go to your desktop :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Then type this command :
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp_pro5.img
If there are no problems, you will get that :
And that's all, now you can boot on TWRP with Power+Vol Up
Perfect! Nice one. Thank you for taking the time to do this. Can't wait to try it out! Now you have TWRP have you tried flashing anything like a custom kernel or something?
amazing

I hope yo will think of many ideas
PS: I making rom beta G without wipe data , and no lost unlock
Hope will good
SR English my bad
PS: I dont understand....IF you unlock then update FW stock , bootloader will update.and devices will lock...you can not keep data,because downgrade FW
Be careful with flashing zip with TWRP : I have flashed an update (official) with TWRP to see if it works : update flash works but now I can't access to any recovery, just fastboot and system.
Unable to flash any recovery with fastboot, permission denied, locked bootloader after update.
And I can't flash recovery with the Meizu official tool, I get "token sign failed".
So I can't update the phone at all, no official update, nothing because the phone won't boot into recovery.
Great.

You need note: If you flash stock rom (no delete bootloader) devices will update bootloader and devices will lock bootloader
If you want flash rom stock or update rom pls delete file
bootloader , dtb ,ldfw,logo.bin,recovery.img,firmware_type,imei.dat,machine_match
and folder META-INF\com\android
Then edit updater-script
good luck

Thanks, but now I can't update anything : when I try to boot into recovery, the phone boot into system. Power+Vol.Up doesn't work now, until I flashed the new rom. So I can't update the phone.

Also great work, lads. Please don't stop what you're doing. This could make or break owning a PRO 5
Perhaps I've another way to unlock the BL without losing rom, data, etc. Only 2 lines in fastboot.
If someone wants to try..

Keep in mind that looked bootloader will ALWAYS check file signature .... which mean only official or resigned file will apply correctly... Unlocked one is less critical and you can flash rom (zipped) with deleted/changed bootloader or recovery img
Why don't you simply use titanium backup first ? Then unlock bootloader, flash recovery, install whatever rom build you want and root+ restore ? This way you won't have spend 2 days for an AIO solution that might never be available

Mini FAQ
[SIZE=+1]Q1 :Will I Be able to downgrade after Flashing Lollipop? [/SIZE]
Even though a lot of users have reported a successfull downgrade to KK from Lollipop, I would suggest not to downgrade as the new bootloader flashed with the lollipop ota prevents the KK kernel from booting. You may have problems with the stock KK Rom.
[SIZE=+1] Q2: Does unlocking the bootloader wipe/factory reset my phone?[/SIZE]
Yes it does. Please make a backup of all your apps and data as it will be completely erased.
[SIZE=+1] Q3: Can I flash the stock Lollipop For my specific model when it is also updated?[/SIZE]
Yes you can with the help of the stock firmware file of your model.
[SIZE=+1]Q4: I am stuck at patching system files. What should I do? [/SIZE]
Patching system files takes a long time (more than 5 minutes) so please be patient.
[SIZE=+1]Q5: Can I flash custom Roms/Recoveries over it? [/SIZE]
Yes all the custom Roms work. I have tried Philz recovery it works.
[SIZE=+1]Q6: I am getting a"hab check for recover" error. What should I do? [/SIZE]
Ignore this error. You are good to go.
[SIZE=+1]Q7: I have hard bricked my device. What should I do? [/SIZE]
Follow this Guide Its the same as Moto G (1st Gen).

Thank you for your useful tips.
I will try and feedback soon.
Thanks a lot! It worked for me
Note that you don't have to relock the bootloader, it worked with it unlocked.
Also I heard it is recommended to wipe dalvik cache and cache partition after update.
There are two rules about which recovery you can use:
1) You must use the recovery for your exact model! It must also be from the same region! (recovery for A5_DUG Europe won't work for you if you have A5_DUG Asia_HK, or A5_UL any, etc.)
2) You must use the recovery from the version you are currently at OR the one you are updating to! (the recovery from 1.56.708.2 won't work if you are updating from 1.57.708.1 to 2.34.708.1, etc.)

I had a very similar error.
my guess is, because my phone is unlocked and modified using Link2SD and Xposed, there have been changes to the system. so It might be a good idea to flash an untouched 4.4.42 nandroid before trying to update.
That's what I did and I could update without a problem

you copy that recovery.img file to the folder where you keep your ADB/Fastboot files. then you reboot to bootloader and put your device in fastboot mode. then open a command prompt in your fastboot folder on your computer and type:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

THIS THREAD IS WIP FOREVER
So , while writing this thread, i had a bit of confusion where to start as here am posting as many problems that users normally face which may be related to flashing (before,while and after). So most problems starts up after flashing . since there as a sequence which i wrote before, lets begin with "BEFORE" followed by "WHILE" and "AFTER". This isnt a grammer class so stop holding ur nerves and lets come to the point.
BEFORE FLASHING :
Mostly People as a few questions related to "How to root" , if he/she got this doubt. So here we begin
Problems we usually face while unlocking a bootloader.
I am New here, plz help me to unlock bootloader
If u wants to unlock bootloader,kindly refer this thread
I am not able to unlock bootloader even after having unlock code, plz help me
well, plz eanble developer options by heading over to settings/about phone and tab on build number for 7 times and fget back to settings followed by developer options and check for oem unlock and plz enable it. Done , now ur code works to unlock ur bootloader from fastboot.
Iam not able to unlock bootloader due to honor site saying "INVALID CREDENTIALS" , "PLEASE ENTER A VALID IMEI/S.NO/MODEL NUMBER"
Well, i am sorry to say u this.
Here we had only two solutions.
1) If u wants to unlock your bootloader for free, plz contact honor support and give them the required info , if they gave u an unlock code then plz use it.
2) This is a paid service . i never used this but heard success from the one's who tried this. Try DC-UNLOCKER
I unlocked bootloader, but twrp wont boot after flashing it.
Check if the FRP status on fastboot is unlocked . If it is locked, then u cant flash anything even on an unlocked bootloader.
AFTER FLASHING
So here u flashed a twrp recovery. Here i see most of them asking a common question
i just installed twrp, flashed LOS ROm but am not able to boot it, stuck at bootanimation, or IS IN BOOTLOOP..
If you are having above questions, then am pretty sure u forgot to install vendor.zip .
if u dont know whats vendor.zip and where to find it. kindly check here and then u go.
i just installed twrp, flashed LOS ROM but am not able to remove encryption.
Plz always install a latest version of twrp , just wipe data,cache, and dalvik/RT cache . flash the rom and gapps(optional) also make a factory reset after flashing so that we can confirm that u are safe side
I flashed an "X" rom , booted and using that since "n" number of days, the battery is draining heavily. Plz help me.
Plz contact the developer of ur rom and provide them proper logs to solve ur issue.
OTHER ISSUES:
MY DEVICE STRUCK ON NRD-TESTKEYS AS BUILD NUMBER AND AM NOT ABLE TO FLASH ANY ROM /CANT UPDATE/...
This is a severe issue,
The reason behind this problem is , U flashed an ota update with twrp and then the flashing is incomplete . just like u flashed an update.zip and not the regional zip.
in order to over come such , all u need to do is reset the version number.
LO4 users plz flash this zip from twrp and then flash ur desired update.app build for LO4.
LO2 users plz flash this zip from twrp and then flash ur desired update.app build for LO2.
L19 users plz flash this zip from twrp. [zip has update.app in it andd flash directly [Thanks to @Venugopalu007 ]
I WANTS TO REBRAND MY HONOR 8 TO CERTAIN VARIANT. HOW TO DO THAT ?
REBRAND TO LO4 ----plz flash this zip from twrp and then flash ur desired update.app build for LO4.
REBRAND TO LO2 ----plz flash this zip from twrp and then flash ur desired update.app build for LO2.
REBRAND TO L19 ----plz flash this zip from twrp. [zip has update.app in it andd flash directly [Thanks to @Venugopalu007 ]
PHONE'S GETTING HOT DURING CAMERA
Long duration usage may heatup camera, close camera or flashlight to avoid heating issue.
I HAVE ISSUE WITH COMPASS , DO I NEED TO RECALIBRATE OR ELSE ANY OTHER ISSUE?
Compass on stock rom is well calibrated. plz make sure if there is something that effects compass in ur surroundings. (magnets, wifi router close to u etc)
SYSTEM UI REBOOTS WHILE NFC IS TURNED ON
That may be an issue with the theme u are using, kindly change ur theme or revert to origioanl theme from themes app.

I dint understand , please be clear.
Rommco05 said:
Ok,
-start is here > bootloader is locked
In this moment u can change OEM - disable it or enable it
Situation 1:
-OEM is disabled and if u unlock bootloader (with disabled oem), OEM stay always disabled and u can't flash anything
Situation 2:
-OEM is enabled and if u unlock bootloader (with enabled eom), OEM stay always enabled and u can flash what u want

Ah, if u use CHinese Honor and in EMUI 5.0, u cant Unlock OEM in Developer mode because it doesnt have. Rollback to EMUI 4.1 and go to adb command
adb oem unlocking hit enter
then u go to bootloader to unlock ur device.

flashing stock firmware
Hi,
I'm facing an issue while trying to going back to EMUI. I have L09C432. Here what I did:
- I was on LOS with lastest TWRP
- I put the rolling back UPDATE.APP (81 Mb) in the dload of my sdcard then reboot with vol+ vol- and power pressed.
- I did the same with the big UPDATE.APP (3,30 Go) from frd-l09c432b120.zip
- Now i'm stuck, I can't do anything. I don't go far then the "you'r device is booting" message.
I tried the unbrick mod with Huawei Multi Tool, everything going fine but it doesn't change anything.
I tried to flash twrp for 4.1, nothing.
Plus I can't turn off my phone.
Any help will be appreciate, thanks in advance!

Where is Stock Recovery for OP5T?
I wanted to know to flash original firmware/update is it required to have original recovery or can it be done with twrp.
I can remember on the oneplus one twrp was sufficient for original firmware.

If you unlock the bootloader you will continue to get updates, but if you root the phone you will not get official update, you will flash full rom with twrp all times

After unlocking bootloader the device would be erased. I wanted to know if the same applies if I flash twrp recovery. Thank you.
I'm planning to unlock bootloader load all my apps etc and then when stock recovery is available flash twrp.

If you flash the twrp you should not re erase memory. If you want i can extract the stock recovery from your phone

Is there a step by step process which I can use.
Also I'm sure I saw stock firmware on another thread for 5t.
Can't the recovery be extracted from stock firmware.

Hey Guys how we can install that on chinese rom?
---------- Post added at 03:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:54 PM ----------
I just tried to install it on my x2 pro chinese rom and I followed their method on the website, putting the software on the phone storage and I got installation failed or decompression error message. Anybody know a way?
i got CN version, im gonna try this and hope it will work :fingers-crossed:

So basically it is not able to install EU rom on a device with CN rom ?
im wondering why the file ends in .ozip vs .zip maybe thats why?
EDIT: I didn't realize that is a oppo specific update extension,so im not sure why it wouldnt work
maybe unlocking bootloader then flashing via recovery will work?

I would have thought this was expected? The same was the case with the X2. Unless you can fool the recovery somehow in to thinking you're on a global version I would imagine it's unlikely this method would work.
I assume flashing through TWRP with an unlocked bootloader would work but that's not going to work with this proprietary ozip.
I don't think anyone has tried a full twrp system backup and restore from a global phone to a china one though. I'm interested in how that would play out.
Ozip to zip is easy. Done.
BUT, both fastboot flashing and twrp flashing giving errors, because new (EU) system.img and vendor.img is larger than CN versions.
I can go further, try to flash EU recovery and flashing ozip rom. BUT I'm afraid if device is bricked, I don't want to wait for months hoping for a unbrick rom

ozip update is normal that means is a oppo realme update even the CN version ends with ''ozip''
But yeah can't install it in ''normal way''
is there a way to unlock the bootloader and intall twrp? I didn't see anything ''official''
Otherwise how to guys?

1. ozip decrypting
2. compatibility.zip must be delete
3. sign zip and flash (but I think recovery will flash to eu version so it may cause some problem)

Hi
I'm in the same situation as you are. Should get my X2 pro these days and am collection information about safe ways to root, because I need my phone as working phone and unfortunately can't take the risk ofbricking the phone or have an unstable installation. As far as I know for shure:
Unlocking bootloader
You need the tool "In-Dept test Tool" on your phone. Read this . You will find a download link there.
Installing TWRP
There is a pre-release version from honorable @mauronofrio. I don't know how big the risk ist to install this. I haven't read anything about people who have experience with this. For instructions read this .
Rooting
Now we are on the tricky point. I have not read anything about succesful rooting. Neither with Magisk nor with SuperSU.
If anyone has additional info or newer info please let me/us know.

Extracted EU rom to system.img + vendor.img + other partitions. BUT the system.img is 5.1GB, CN version is 4.4GB, same for vendor.img, is bigger. Now both fastboot flashing and twrp flashing are giving errors, that there is no space for flashing.
I need help, is there any way to resize those partitions ? (twrp resize does not work).
