This is a Guide to install the Global ROM Flyme OS 6Global on the Meizu Pro 6 Plus Chinese version.
Note: This is also a way to install Any custom ROM made in the future. If someone wanna Customize the ROM( Integrate Xposed and other stuff) feell free to do it.
What does this mean:
Meizu released two versions of the Pro 6 Plus, a chineese version (A) for china and an International version (G) for the devices sold in other countries (International). If you bought your Pro 6 plus from official meizu store on your country, it will come with the G version, but if you bought it from Aliexpress or any other Chinese store, you will buy a Chinese version, some seller may send you the international version if you are lucky but the majoritynot.
Global / International version:
No bloatware, chinese apps..
Multilanguage ( all languages available)
Stock apps optimized for International use (Weather....)
seems to be smoother and faster than the chinese version.

*** As always - Read everything carefully and Flash on our own risk! ***
I can and will not take any responsibility for bricked phones or lost data.What do we need:
Rooted Device
FlashFire app from playstore
Flyme 6.1.0.0G _Global_Stable_Pro 6 Plus for Flashfire
Instructions:
Its recomnended to back up your data (Titanium backup, your fotos etc)in case of disaster.
Update to a newer version:
Copy the new version to Internal storage
Open Flashfire, click on the + button and choose Flash Zip / OTA
Select the Downloaded ROM from the file explorer and select Mount system read write.
Now you will see a screen with all the actions that will be done, select the action called Reboot and un-thick the option Preserve recovery, leave Normal selected.
Finally click on FLASH and wait until the process ends.
Enjoy...
Note: In case of any problems and you want a clean installation, add the wipe action from the + button before flashing. But it should not be needed.
Note: it seems to be a problem with supersu if you don't wipe data before update. so to avoid problems, you should wipe before flash.
If you want to keep your apps and data, you should make a data (data partition only) backup from flashfire before updating. then wipe and update, follow instructions to root and to have super su. After that you can use flshfire to restore data backup (only data partition) .
also you can use kingroot but its not compatible with flashfire.
If you already updated, you can use titanium backup(give root permision from system root in settings, security root permissions)make a backup of your apps and then follow the guide below How to go back to stock chinese ROM in case of disaster, after that follow the instruction of new installation and when you have the that done, you can rstore your apps with titanium backup.

Flyme OS 6.7.4.11_beta_Global_Pro 6 Plus for Flashfire
Thanks for this tutorial! It was very detailed and easy to follow.
In the future when I want to perform an update, do I need to go through FlashFire in order for it to work correctly on a Chinese version of the device? Also, where do you download the "G" versions of the beta firmware? I know their next release is a stable version and I know it comes out after the A version; just wondering where you go to download it. Cheers!

For future update you can download the stable from http://www.flymeos.com/firmwarelist?modelId=46&type=1. Or the betas from flyme forum. You will have to edit the installation script to be able to flash through flashfire and don't get error and avoid firmware problems. Anyway i will upload the future updates modified for flashfire.

Thanks!!! I tried looking through the zip file to see what you changed, but didn't know which file to go into. I assume it's not as easy as opening up a file in notepad and changing some data on there.

Thanks dude! Looking forward to it.
im surprised at how small the response to this phone is....just stumbled upon it while looking for a new device.
this is rather off-topic but this seems to be the most active thread
thanks for that.
i have question,i can flash the Flyme 5.2.7.0G by this method?
@bihariel Hey I have a question for you. Have you ever experienced a sudden change in battery life out of nowhere? When I first installed this firmware, the battery was perfect. All of a sudden after charging my phone, the battery is draining at an unprecedented rate especially on standby. I charged the phone to 100%, disabled all notification/wifi/cellular network and left it on overnight to activate the battery calibration. The problem still exists however. It's draining about 1% every 2 minutes on standby which is ridiculous.
I'm just wondering if you ever encountered this issue before.

You can but you have to modify the script to avoid firmware files and recovery.img to be flashed, which would end in an installation abort,

Not really, the battery is surprising me on this ROM. Maybe you sould use a battery monitoring app and see whats draining it. If not, do a factory reset and see if it still prsists.

Hello everyone, thanks a lot bihariel for this guide.
I have successfully installed the beta with flashfire and it's all ok!
Some people say flashfy is not a very safe method, what do you think? I'm not an expert.
However, I did not go to the flymex account synchronization, now I've installed the closed beta apps yesterday and it works perfectly well!
We wait for the stable then!
Can you explain how you modified the update for the future? Thanks so much.
Are Alternative Methods to Flashfire? Type ADB?
In Italy a seller on his blog posted this guide, but I could not install it:
"The tutorial for installing firmware G in the Asian Meizu Pro 6 Plus smartphone is really very simple and does not require solid modding basics, you just have to be careful about installing ADB drivers correctly.
Load the battery completely before you begin the procedure and save all your important data
On your PC or on a Cloud as you will need to make the full factory reset.
Prerequisites Preinstalling Firmware G in Meizu Pro 6 Plus:
1-Smartphone fully charged
2-Any antivirus and / or firewalls disabled
3-Driver ADB properly installed, restart your PC after installation!
4-Enabled Root permissions through Flyme account (Fingerprint and Security Menu)
5-USB Debug Mode Enabled in Developer Options (Accessibility Menu)
G Firmware Installation in Meizu Pro 6 Plus:
Decompress the Meizu_Pro6plus_Flyme 5.2.7.0G.zip archive and copy it to the root folder
Of Meizu Pro 6 Plus the file system-i.img
Decompress the archive adb_tool.zip and in the folder obtained we select the file
Cmd.exe to open the command window
Write in the command window:
Adb shell
We give Send and permission to ADB through the pop-up that will appear on the Meizu Pro 6 Plus display
We will read in the shell @ Pro6Plus command window
WARNING: If the pop-up display does not appear, ADB drivers have not been installed correctly!
Write in the command window:
su
We give Send and permission of ADB SHELL root permissions through
The pop-up that will appear on the Meizu Pro 6 Plus display
We will read in the command window the symbol #

Write in the command window:
Dd if = / sdcard / system-i.img of / dev / block / platform / 155a0000.ufs / by-name / system
We give Enter, we will see the cursor blink, we do not touch anything until the flash procedure
The system will not be completed and the screenshot message below will appear
Meizu pro 6 plus 01
Disconnect the usb cable from the Meizu Pro 6 Plus and restart it by holding down the button
Power for a few seconds, the startup process will take a few minutes, do not alarm and we start booting.
When the terminal is started we go in
Settings> About phone> Storage> Factory data reset>

I can tell you that for now the safest method is flashfire because it install the ROM in same way that the Recovery does, that is: it wipes the system partition and installs the ROM with correct permissions.
The method you mention is more risky( to get a bootloop) because it overwrites the ROM files directly over the System partition with the OS still running on phone. This drives into a system hang freeze. of course you have to turn it of by holding power button until it restarts. Then you have to go recovery and do a factory reset if you get bootloop.
I tried this method before Flasfire but it gave me bootloop so then i used Flashfire because it do the same job that Recovery does.
About the modifications, its really simple. Just open \META-INF\com\google\androidupdater-script and delete all the lines in red in this picture (these lines check if your phone is Chinese version or global and update the firmware files.)
Also you can delete the files related to those lines just for safety (boot.img, recovery.img, logo.bin, ldfw, bootloader..)

Salam,
The camera bug is weird, i don't have that bug, i open the camera ( front and back) many times and it works perfectly, maybe you changed something in camera setting ( erasing camera app data should help)
Anyway, the script is exactly the same as mine, its just you are using and editor with Arabic orientation.
Just use the app Notepad++( google it) and open it in English lang.
If not, just upload the script for me and i will edit it.

Step by Step Guide - Android 8.0 Chinese beta. Clean/dirty flash lock/UL BL.
Hello Guys,
To make things easy heres a step by step guide to install the chinese oreo beta on locked/unlocked Bl for the 5T
So I got my hands on the android oreo chinese beta (H2OS) and flashed it on my oneplus 5t which was on a locked bootloader and running stable 4.7.6 with star wars theme enabled. Here's a step by step guide to install H2os Oreo beta rom wtihout losing any data.
WARNING : BACKUP - BACKUP - BACKUP and flash at your own risk. I would not be responsible for any loss.
METHOD 1 : FOR LOCKED/UNLOCKED BL BUT WITH STOCK RECOVERY
1) Download the rom from this link : https://goo.gl/4nPrxx
2) Ensure you have backed up all your important data and make sure you have atleast 50% battery.
3) Copy the downloaded zip to phones internal memory (make sure its in the main directory and not in any folder.
4) Go to settings > system updates > top right hand corner tap the settings icon > tap local upgrade > tap on the downloaded file > tap update now and wait for it to finish installing the update. ( first boot will take 8 to 10 minutes so please dont panic.
5) Once first boot is done you may have a force close for 1 or 2 apps just uninstall them and reinstall from the play store and you are good to go. Also star wars theme continues to work and all basic functions work as expected.
6) If you want a clean install or having many force closures please perform a factory reset and everything should be resolved.

- Update Android system patch
Known Issues
1. WeChat fingerprint payment can not be used temporarily
2. Third-party applications may not compatible list, please download the attachment compression package. Android O may not be compatible with the application list. Rar (25.83 KB, Downloads: 364)
This a translation of the update. I used g translate. :good:
It seems to run OK. Obviously some stuff is still in Chinese. I tried to flash TWRP and TWRP booted but even after a clearing cache/Div the ROM then would not boot. I just got a white light.
For initial install I did a complete data format then loaded the stock recovery ,and the latest stable OOS, then flashed the Chinese O.. You do need to pull a PlayStore .APK and reload all the Google apps after a flash.
Unless this one is different than the one they have on their main site, it's not Oreo. I flashed it, tried flashing Gapps and Gapps said I had to flash appropriate Gapps for 7.1 :/
Very nice. Thanks for the write-up!
Already open beta 3 now.
