Hi to everybody
I'm doing this thread because I've seen that there's a lot of confussion about how to install all this things properly, and I think that concentrating the wide-spread information could help you to get rid of this. First of all I have to thanks @aaawqw and @Moyster for their great efforts.
This is going to be a recopilatory of several sources and personal tips to help you to do this the easiest way. I'm not responsible of bricked phones nor your personal problems.
Please, read the full tutorial before doing anything, to avoid bricks and those things.
PREPARE THE RECIPE
Download these files:
- Unlocking bootloader tool: HERE
- TWRP image from Moyster (creator of LOS14 for our device): here
- If you want to install a modified version of FlymeOS, use this one from Romul35 from 4PDA: here. Original post
- Last LineageOS 14 build: from this thread. PLEASE DON'T FORGET TO THANK THE DEVELOPERS
- GApps: here I recommend the nano option. Choose ARM64 and Android version 6.0.
Put those three last files into your internal memory. If you've got an microSD card, I recommend you to put them into it (it's safer and easier).
UNLOCKING THE BOOTLOADER
To unlock the bootloader go to:
- Kevin.MX @aaawqw) post: here
Finally we have a guide to unlock the bootloader of Meizu m2 note. We need Mediatek SP Flash Tool, MTK phone drivers and the images/bin files for unlocking. No modaco superboot, no fake tutorials any more
Now here's the guide:
1. Download the files I provide
Then unzip it. You'll get a folder with FlashTool, Phone drivers and unlock images.
2.Install drivers for Mediatek platform.
3.Flash the temp-unlock-secro.img via Flashtool. (secro row)
4.Flash secro.img, lk.bin, preloader_meizu6753_65c_l1.bin via Flashtool. (secro, lk and preloader rows respectively)
5.Disconnect USB data cable and power on the phone. If you see the "=>Normal boot" sign(it's quite small.......) in the left bottom cornor of the screen, then the unlock is done. You can now flash things in whatever way you like. The guide is over~~~
The full tutorial is here
The unlock tool is here
Thank you for testing&trying!
If you've seen this spoiler and didn't thank Kevin, please go to here and thank him. This motivates him and gives him the recognisement he deserves.
- Robot Hijau 97 Youtube video: here It isn't in English, but may help if you find any problem or get lost during the unlocking. Leave him a like if it helped you.
This unlocking guide only works for M571 model. If you try this with a M571C (China Telecom) model, you'll get a bricked phone (very useful if you like paperweights )
THIS METHOD DOES WORK FOR M571H MODEL. DON'T WORRY, THE ONLY ONE THAT GIVES SOME ISSUES IS THE M571C.
The great user @aaawqw states "And Meizu M571C should use the same method of meizu m2 (mini), a shell script for frp unlock. But no recovery images yet…Different hardware and partitions"
Tips to unlock the bootloader easily:
- If you're going to do it from a Windows 10 or 8 pc, have in mind that to install unsigned drivers you'll have to unlock the feature in your pc. A guide to do this: here
- Select the images to flash and hit the Download button before connecting your Meizu (pressing Vol Down button). This will help you if it turns on and off and makes the flashing impossible.
- Download the guide or see the video to correctly follow all the steps. You don't want to lose your phone, don't you? Don't try to mix guides, because you may skip a step and brick your phone. The video and Kevin.MX guide are the same procedure, they both are safe.
INSTALLING TWRP
Once done this part, we'll proceed with the installation of TWRP recovery image. There are two ways, choose the easier to you:
- Flash TWRP from SP Flashtool (original idea from @widagdag. The post: here)
+Turn off your device
+ By using your pc or laptop, extract the TWRP zip for meizu m2 note, there's a file "recovery.img"
+ You can flash it via SP flash tool (clicking the recovery, then select the file)... then click Download, wait until finished!! (Check symbol)
+ You can reboot ur device now, unlocked bootloader and installed twrp!
*The profit is u didn't need to root first and install any flash tool such as Rash, FlashFire, Flashify, etc. saving you some time
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
- Flash the recovery image from Flyme:
+ Get root access (if you do, skip this step). You can get it downloading Kingroot: here. Just install this apk and follow the steps
+ Unzip TWRP zip into a known folder
+ Download Flashify from the Playstore
+ Grant superuser access
+ (Optional) make a backup of your current recovery going to backup tab
+ Tap Recovery Image
+ Choose a file
+ Find TWRP img that you unzipped before and flash it

INSTALLING CM AND GAPPS
We're close to the end of this post. The final step: installing your desired ROM and GApps. I will flash CM from the thread whose link is at the download section.
I hope you've put it into your memory (internal/external) as we said
Ok so:
- Turn off your phone
- Go into the TWRP recovery (Vol up+power)
- (Optional but recommended) Make a backup of Flyme, just in case you don't like the new ROM and would like to go back to Flyme. If it takes up too much memory, move it to your pc after making the backup.
- Go to Wipe menu
- Go to advanced wipe
- Select these:
+ System
+ Cache
+ Dalvik Cache
+ Data
- Swipe to do the wipe
- Go to install.
- Select your zip image (in my case the cm13 I downloaded).
- Install also the GApps zip file you downloaded
- Restart to System, and check what you've done.
Some final tips:
- Make the backup, seriously, it takes 10 min and you'll have a Flyme backup if you don't like CM.
- If you want to transfer all your apps and their data from Flyme to your new ROM, use Titanium Backup.
- If you want to install Xposed Framework, it's the same procedure: enter into TWRP, tap install, select the zip and swipe.
- This won't delete your images or videos, but I would recommend to transfer them to a microSD card or your PC.
- Yes, you need to do all this to install a custom ROM. Yes, even unlocking the bootloader. Don't try to skip a step if you aren't sure about what you're doing.
I think that's all, I'll update this post if I lost anything.
I hope this helped you to move into CM world. If you have any doubt don't hesitate to ask.
I know this seems exhausting, but trust me, it worths it. Welcome to the custom ROMs world in your Meizu M2 Note. Let the magic begin.
ADDITIONAL GUIDES
RELOCKING THE BOOTLOADER
If you want to relock the bootloader just follow this simple steps:
Flash the original recovery image from Flashtool of from Flashify (the steps are the same as installing TWRP). You can find this image here
From there, install an update.zip (download them from the official flyme web: here and put it into the storage )
Now you have flyme again with a locked bootloader.
INSTALLING FLYME WITH TWRP
It's very important that you don't install an update.zip from the original Flyme page, because you will cause a bootloop. To get the flyme updates, you can follow one of these two methods:
METHOD 1: 4PDA
-Download the modified zips from 4PDA: here]. Translate it to English. It's on custom firmware>Flyme
-Flash them from TWRP
METHOD 2: DO IT YOURSELF
-Download the update.zip file from the Flyme page
-Open it and remove the preloader- files
-Flash it from TWRP. It will give you an error: IGNORE IT.
Reboot and done, you've got Flyme and TWRP.
UNBRICK A PAPERWEIGHT
BIG THANKS TO @numpea FOR THIS:
This just a firmware that has all the partitions and can be used to unbrick to device using SPFlashtool
Here is the link:
FIRMWARE
- Flash temp_unlock_secro.img with sp flashtool like you do when unlocking the bootloader.
- When done, disconnect the device and add the firmware to sp flashtool. You need to select "format all+download", click on "Download" and connect the device. The flashing process will start. After it finishes, the device will start again.
You wil notice that you lost your imei number you can add it back by:
Using MTK Engineering Mode (does not requires root)
Open engineering mode » Click on Engineer Mode (MTK) » Swipe left to Connectivity » click on CDS Information » Radio Information
Click on phone 1 if you want to change your sim 1 or choose Phone 2 to change sim 2 IMEI, follow this guide:
For Phone 1: “AT+ EGMR=1,7,â€YOUR NEW IMEI NO†(make sure you add a space in between AT+ & EGMR)
For Phone 2: “AT+ EGMR=1,10,â€YOUR NEW IMEI NO†(make sure you add a space in between AT+ & EGMR)
Using Chamelephon (requires root, but much more easier)
Just copy the IMEIS from the phone's box and put them into the app.
hope this is helpful

Great work lol
Another thing is…ShevT's recovery has no problem in cache partition.Only my broken recovery did… So remove the cache fixing partAny problem just send me a private message. I'll check when i have time.
---------- Post added at 04:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:58 PM ----------
And Meizu M571C should use the same method of meizu m2 (mini), a shell script for frp unlock. But no recovery images yet…Different hardware and partitions…
Another thing is, Kingroot is not suggested. It cannot be detected by Flashfire and some other tools. And cannot be replaced by SuperSU. So Kingo Root+SuperSU might be better.

Check the store page you bought it from. If you bought it from China, then probably it's a M571C. Good luck

5.Reboot into recovery
6. Full wipe

Good, but there is easy way download that rom, and install it for TWRP(select full wipe, include internal storage) - emmaus.pro/MX4_custom_roms/Flyme/4.5.7i_twrp.zip
and there all stock Flyme roms for twrp - emmaus.pro/?dir=MX4_custom_roms/Flyme
Author all rom "nikk3d" russian 4pda users - 4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showuser=2196261
And this method works even on newest firmware, let's say 4.5.6i downgraded to 4.2.8i via 4.0.4i? Or is a easy variant of previous method, patched uboot by meizu remains after 4.5.6i upgrade if i understand, no matter if you downgrate to Kitkat?
update for TWRP : http://www.mediafire.com/download/f6a65ccpgrfaopw/TWRPr5.img

I have an MX4 originally with Ubuntu touch, I tried to flash 4.5.7i from emmaus.pro.
It failed, updater binary error. I checked the recovery log and it says write error, no space left.
Does anybody have any clue?
Thanks,
Note: I already tried a wipe out (even internal storage). No issues with the cyanogenmod roms from emmaus.pro.
Is someone trying to make fom Meizu MX5?

i think, mx4 ubuntu touch version, and standard china version, - internal partitions(storage) name - different, so you gives write an error.

Thanks to all user's who making this for MX4. They are really engineers! I hope they will try for MX5.
Yes, the problem it is not official, and we cant get new update.
Why we don't write a email to Canynogen and tell them that we open the bootloader and put CM. But we want they make CM for MX4 and MX5, with new CM and updates?

hi someone had tested this app already? is it surely gonna work??
and after i will unlock the bootloader i can instal any rom? like Mokee and CM12.1??
For an easy way to Unlock, Root & Decrypt your Mate 8 here are the steps you need to take. This has been requested by a number of you so here it goes:
1) Unlock your bootloader. There are three steps you can take. The first is free. The second method requires you to pay a few dollars but it works and is the fastest way. I would highly recommended this method. This is confirmed working on all models.
Option 1: Make a Huawei ID on your phone and stay signed in for 14 days and go then online to unlock your bootloader and it should work on the website.
https://uniportal.huawei.com/accounts/register.do?method=toRegister
Option 2: If you want to unlock your phone immediately and don't mind paying a few dollars this method works. Visit here:
https://www.dc-unlocker.com/buy
- Download the DC Unlocker Software
- On their site buy 4 credits. I used PayPal. It cost me around $4.38 USD.
- Follow the instructions in their tutorial. Choose "Read Bootloader Code" in DC-Unlocker to get your bootloader code. It was pretty easy.
- Put your phone in bootloader mode (plug into the computer and hold in power and volume down with the phone off) and download the Android tools from the link at the end of step two. Extract them to a folder on your desktop and open a command prompt to that folder and type in fastboot oem unlock xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx where x is your bootloader unlock code the DC Unlocker program gave you.
2) Download the TWRP recovery of the EMUI version you are currently on (5.0 ,5.1, 6.0) from here:
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B5I_q70mNuR4Vmo5LUUyU2t5TWs?usp=sharing
Then put your phone into Bootloader Mode (plug phone into computer and hold in power + vol down) and fastboot flash the TWRP recovery file you downloaded. Here are the Android tools you need to fastboot flash. Extract them to a folder and put the twrp recovery img file inside the folder as well and open up a command prompt to the folder and type in fastboot flash recovery TWRP-ENG-XXX.img (where XXX is the version of TWRP you downloaded) Then type in fastboot reboot. When your phone reboots shut it back down and then hold in volume up and power until it turns on and keep holding in volume up until the phone boots into TWRP recovery.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5I_q70mNuR4UzdkeERRZExnUVk/view?usp=sharing
3) Root your phone.
In TWRP flash SuperSU:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5I_q70mNuR4OWlXeTJuTjdoS0k/view?usp=sharing
After flashing you will be rooted and on TWRP successfully.
4) Decrypt your internal storage.
You must decrypt your internal storage so TWRP can see it or if you want to be able to flash a rom. If you're getting an unable to format data in TWRP then you know you need to do this. Boot into TWRP then go to Wipe then Advanced Wipe then Format Data and type in yes. This will wipe and decrypt your internal storage. BACK UP YOUR INTERNAL STORAGE before you do this if you have anything important on it. (Pics are at the bottom of this post) Then either flash one of my roms or decrypted boot.img to keep the internal storage decrypted. If you boot with the stock boot.img installed it will encrypt your internal storage again and you'll have to repeat the process.
*To take an ota or do the dload method you don't have to relock"
does flashing supersu through twrp directly work? in my case i needed to flash the decrypted boot image first, otherwise id have a bootloop after rooting...

yep thats correct, B137 latest chinese and B133 latest international rom
thanks for the info, i had some problems with flashing supersu, but once i flashed the decrypted boot image my bootloop and partition mounting troubles in twrp were gone no idea what exactly was the culprit there but i guess ill stick to flashing the decrypted boot.img first before continuing with rooting a firmware...

i sure hope so especially since huawei seems to have publicized its kernel source for the mate 8 just recently in the end it depends on the interest of the devs, though, and the overall popularity of the mate 8! im staying optimistic that itll be better than with the mate 7

Don't worry, it works with the Mate 8. You're doing something wrong if it didn't work.
Say we do unlock BL and then root... Than I guess we cannot get OTA updates right? Also does the BL re-lock?

You should still get ota updates if you're unlocked and rooted. Yes you can relock just make sure you fastboot flash or do the dload method to get back to stock before you relock.
it's the code in first line, cofusing

Finally we have a guide to unlock the bootloader of Meizu m2 note. We need Mediatek SP Flash Tool, MTK phone drivers and the images/bin files for unlocking. No modaco superboot, no fake tutorials any more
Now here's the guide:
1. Download the files I provide
Then unzip it. You'll get a folder with FlashTool, Phone drivers and unlock images.
2.Install drivers for Mediatek platform.
3.Flash the temp-unlock-secro.img via Flashtool.
4.Flash secro.img, lk.bin, preloader_meizu6753_65c_l1.bin via Flashtool.
5.Disconnect USB data cable and power on the phone. If you see the "=>Normal boot" sign(it's quite small.......) in the left bottom cornor of the screen, then the unlock is done. You can now flash things in whatever way you like. The guide is over~~~
The full tutorial is here:https://mega.nz/#!zJxmBDAA!VyYLgPoOfx1P4O7WzSvKVycnbWnYPESzazZGOoIt15w
The unlock tool is here:https://mega.nz/#!zA4zQT4B!c8W5IBPmmglAHwfzhqN3AOnYC2Rs1a_ToRLNBSLCXT8

M1 metal is powered by YunOS, and it have a system service called"AntiRoot". As we all know, the antiroot in YunOS is very powerful which is extremely hard to hack. Now you can only use Kingroot to get "Fake Root",which can't edit the system partition. I'm using m2 note(M571) so I can't help u about that, sorry
Oh, and remember this tutorial WON'T WORK on Meizu M571C (meizu m2 note China Telecom version ). We are still working on that but we don't have the phone to test our work.

Our bootloader has some problems, so it will always shows it is locked, but in fact it can be uocked by my method, and we are able to flash recovery partition. I ported one but it's buggy, so I won't release it until problem resolved. The screen is upside down but touch is ok. Th only way to fix it is to compile the full image, but my computer's performance is so poor.... Could u help me bro?
Sorry i cant help you.. my pc is not powerfull too and i dont have knowladge about it.. I wish someone can help u better.. and you can release custom rom or custom recovery for our Meizu m2 note.. peacee..

This guide only change the ""secro" partition, "preloader" and "lk"(bootloader). It does not depend on your firmware version. So be relax and try it
Hope your Google translater works well
How about in the guide:
And change the Scatter to this file:
Now choose temp-unlock-secro.img and select it.
but it always fails because it is not a scatter but .img

The scatter file is "MT6753_Android_scatter.txt", not the img maybe i insert a wrong picture there
what about mx4 pro (Exynos 5430 Octa) ?
hello we are new to and TWRP custom rom ??
I have build a TWRP recovery from the newest CM12.1 and TWRP source code.
Here's the link: https://mega.nz/#!ychBnTSb!wL6qicJ2KCpwnhHNImEhhk2OGuEKThxcDk2tj0iGuP0
Problems: Sometimes /cache partition can't be mounted. You can flash preloader, lk and secro partition again to solve this.
And the CPU Temperature clock doesn't work. It always shows 0 Degree...... I'll try to fix it.
Other functions works well Try it!
Before you flash it by Flash tool or fastboot or other tools, remember to remove /system/recovery-from-boot.p
That file will restore the flyme recovery at boot~
I would try but it is not clear how to use flash tool can make images of where to load the various files?
thank you

Run Flash Tool.
Load the scatter file first, then click the blank after "recovery", then load the recovery image. Click download then your phone will get TWRP recovery.
Remember to remove /system/recovery-from-boot.p first or your recovery will go back to flyme one
After installing the twrp have you tried to reflash a flyme rom ? Does it works or the official rom have some checks in the zip file to remove ?

HOW TO ROOT YOUR XIAOMI REDMI NOTE 4X MTK aka NIKEL
DISCLAIMER:
There might be more than 1 way to root this phone, this tutorial is based off of the procedure I used to root my phone. For your device's safety do not mix resources (downloads) from other threads with this thread. I first rooted when my phone was on MIUI 8.2 and Android 6.0.1 (It still works on higher versions of the software). Before continuing with the procedure, you are responsible for your phone and what you do to it, this thread worked for me but doesn't necessarily mean it will work for you as well if you don't follow the steps correctly or use different files. Nonetheless, I take no responsibility for what happens to your phone if anything goes wrong.
Requirements:Unlocked Bootloader (Click here for the procedure)
Custom Recovery "TWRP" (Click here to download)
ABD Drivers (Click here to download)
SuperSU (Click here to download)
(Download the latest .zip file called "Recovery Flashable" NOT any APK's)
Procedure:
1) Unlock your Bootloader (skip if already unlocked)
2) Download all the required files
3) Install the ADB Drivers
4) Move the downloaded SuperSU zip file to your phone's SD CARD or internal memory
5) Open the .bat file inside the NIKEL FLASHKIT folder
- Οnce the batch opens select the first option (FLASH ZCX-TWRP 3.0.2-X FOR Redmi Note 4 MTK)
6) Enable USB Debugging
- Enable developer options by clicking couple of times on the MIUI Version (Settings > About Phone)
- After you've enabled the developer options, go to additional settings and find "developer options"
- Enable USB Debugging
7) Connect your phone to your PC
8) Follow the instructions being printed on the NIKEL FLASHKIT batch file you've previously opened
9) After your phone has entered TWRP go to Install and find the .zip of SuperSU
10) Select the file then swipe to install and reboot, DONE!

Well, you need an unlocked bootloader inorder to get root access.
Go apply for permissions if you haven't applied yet!

Flash the custom recovery (*.img) through fastboot command. For RN4 MTK there's limited custom recovery available, but you may consider trying Cofface TWRP or ZCX TWRP. After that you can install SuperSU or Magisk from custom recovery. There are plenty tutorials of flashing custom recovery and rooting device using TWRP in RN4 MTK device, search this forum or Google.

Yes, sometimes it works with the first try, other times you have to manually enter fast boot, and other you may need to reconnect your USB while in the process. It can be tricky at some point but it eventually works out
i tried few times and it is just not working for me. i dunno what n how... i unlocked bootloader from mi site. and nothing i try seems to work for me.

Does it still work in the latest version of MIUI 9.5.1.0? I have successfully installed TWRP but the .zip file might be outdated.
This guide is now obsolete. Please check my new guide. It has a custom recovery for this device as well as a rooting guide. Refer to this guide only for installing adb and unlocking bootloader.
This rooting guide is for the Lenovo Tab M10 X505X only.
I plan to work on a custom recovery for this tab as well and probably a custom rom in the future.
So please consider donating so that I can keep up the work.

This will work only on the version "TB-X505X_S001037_200718_ROW". Check it in the Settings > System > About Tablet > Build Number. If it is the newer "X505X_S001038_200819_ROW", do a factory reset and make sure it is the "TB-X505X_S001037_200718_ROW" before proceeding.
Once a custom recovery is made, OTA updates can be applied without losing root. So do not update the tablet until a custom recovery is developed for the device. I plan to develop a custom recovery for it as soon as possible, so please support me.
Anything that goes wrong in this tutorial is not my responsibilty. Proceed at your own risk.
Downloads
patched_boot.img
Step 1. ADB and Fastboot Installation [If adb and fastboot are already installed, skip to Step 2]1. Download the platform tools for your OS from this link.
2. Extract the zip file and place the contents in a folder "platform-tools".
3. To confirm if adb is working, open a command prompt "platform-tools" and run the following command.
Code:
adb version
If it returns the adb version, its done.
Step 2. Unlocking BootloaderWe have to unlock the bootloader inorder to root the device.
Warning: Unlocking bootloader wipes data on the device. It is recommended to backup your data. Proceed at your own risk.
1. Now in the tab, goto Settings > System > About Tablet. Multiple tap the "Build Number" till the developer options are enabled.
2. Goto the developer options and turn on the "OEM unlocking".3. Power off the device.
4. Turn it on by holding Power Button + Volume Down. Once the screen turns on. leave the power button but continue holding the Volume Down button until the fastboot mode is shown.
5. Now open a command prompt in "platform-tools" and now run the following command:
Code:
fastboot oem unlock-go
Your Bootloader is now succesfully unlocked.Step 3. RootingNow to root the tab, download the "patched_boot.img" from the top of this post. Copy the file to the "platform-tools" folder.
Make sure the tab is still in the fastboot mode. Otherwise go back into the fastboot mode as instructed before.
Now run the following command:
Code:
fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img
Congratulations, you have rooted your tab.:highfive:
To complete the process, run the following command.
Code:
fastboot reboot
Once the tab turns on, goto this link and download the latest version of Magisk apk and install it. It is required to control the root privileges for other apps.That's all. You now have a rooted tab.:victory:
If this helped you, hit the thanks button.
And keep tuned for new stuff that are to come for this device.
Thanks for this thread for the TB-X505X.

Have a look at this post for a TWRP that works with the TB-X505F. It might work for the TB-X505X, provided the X505X uses the SDA429 soc. That version of TWRP is unofficial and does not decrypt the data partition.
If the X505F version of TWRP works for you, then you won't need to patch the boot image - you can just install the Magisk update.zip in TWRP. This saves you from having to release a new patched boot image every time there's an OTA.

With the TB-X505F/L, TB-X605F/L and TB-X705F/L we've found that you need to uninstall Magisk to apply OTAs. This is because Lenovo's OTA updater scripts verify you have unmodified boot, system, vendor and firmware partitions. So make sure you backup these partitions as stock.

I gave a look at the TWRP image. Unfortunately, X505X does not boot into the recovery image. It would have been great if it worked. I guess it is because of the different processor, as you mentioned.
It is the same for X505X as well. OTA cannot be applied without uninstalling Magisk. So I guess OTAs are a no-go until a custom recovery is developed. The latest update is also just a boot image patch. So there is no way to use magisk on that.
Thanks for the advice.

Guys, i tried the above mentioned method but my device is showing (can,t load android system. your data my be corrupt. if you continue to get this message, you may need to perform a factory data reset and erase all user data stored on this device) after performing a factory data reset the device reboots and the welcome menu shows up after 15-30 seconds the device automatically shut down and again shows the same message (can,t load android system. your data my be corrupt. if you continue to get this message, you may need to perform a factory data reset and erase all user data stored onnn this device). this goes again and again......
