My phone was soft bricked so i try with a friend and we manage to install the b19 of the A2017u model and we manage to switch on the phone. the problem is my phone is a A2017G european vesrsion and i read in the forum that some users who tries this found issues with cellular signal
my phone is locked bootloader, No twrp and no root
stock recovery and nougat 7.1.1 version B19
screenshot attached
Now i need a tuto of how to get cellular functional on this Rom or a tuto of how i can install the original A2017G firmware with original baseband
Thanks a lot
You risk a lot messing with a locked phone. I would look at the toolkit and see if it will do what you need.
Personally I would also unlock before it is truly bricked.

I have recently found a way to access all versions of Mate8 firmware for the Chinese model. I found the unreleased B163 version (OTA Update only right now.)
I am hoping that someone who has a non-Chinese model, L29 or L09, with bootloader unlocked, can get in touch with me to help me get the information needed to access these files. I will need about an hour of your time, your computer, and your phone. Please send me a message if you can help.

Can you test in eRecovery if you can download stock firmware?

If by erecovery you mean the original emui recovery, no i cannot. It try to install one and obviously dont find any so i have the message like "please download update file".
Just wanted to update everyone.
I had a couple people willing to help, which I am grateful for. But unfortunately, it turns out that eRecovery is not possible with the L29. My hope is that perhaps L09 has working eRecovery but I think it's unlikely.
So in summary, I no longer require this help unless someone is able to get either eRecovery or an OTA update working on their international versions.
I'm very happy to announce that I have found some firmware for the non-Chinese version. I will update about that soon
So what I've found is VERY old version, B056, for L09 model. This is before release, before NXT name when it was codenamed X100. I think it's pretty useless, but here's download in case someone wants it.
http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G984/g77/v34224/f1/full/update.zip
I will continue looking. I think I'm close to a breakthrough right now.

Unfortunately, I've bricked my phone, so I'm no longer able to do much . I guess this is why people usually ask for donations

What's kind of your brick ?
I just got brick, I couldn't' fastboot system , but I fixed it by restore backup from TWRP.
I flashed a very old firmware version when investigating how OTAs work. It bricked my phone.
The result is screen never comes on, but I can access via fastboot. Hisuite software won't repair my phone, and I can flash whatever I want with fastboot, but nothing boots up, the screen never comes on.
Probably, I'm done for a while unfortunately. I am going to try to have Huawei service it in China somehow... but it will take a while.

Sorry to ear that i hope you'll be able to retrieve your phone asap with no or less possible charge.
aw crap, very sorry to hear this @duraaraa. good thing about this though: its likely huawei wont bother to try and bring it back to life, but rather just send u a replacement, thus no risk of them finding out about unlocked bootloader, etc

Hi,
I am waiting for my axon 7.
In the meantime, I would like to understand if I can unlock the bootloader, get the root, but have also the update released by ZTE.
If I have the ensure that I can update my phone, also with an unlocked bootloader, I perform the procedure the first day that the phone arrived at my location.
You know if there is a safe way?
Regards and thanks,
youngz

Really funny, we both posted almost the exact same question at the exact same time. :laugh::victory:
Get OTA Updates with unlocked bootloader is possible, but with root it isn't.

Is it because the update "delete" the root access? Or something else?
If it is the delete of the root access, I think that i can re-root the phone after the update (I have an unlocked bootloader with TWMP installed, so I can re-install Supersu or similar). Is it correct?
Yes you can. I did with the help of @DrakenFX information he posted.

Not 100% accurate. You Can still get OTAs on rooted devices, you just need to rollback Root for the update

It's because root and apps that use root make changes to partitions (such as boot and system), and when the update checks those partitions, it sees that something has changed and will not apply.

What I did was download the b20_boot image, unlocked the bootloader and such. However @DrakenFX has newer ways of doing it.
You can find it HERE
This looks a lot less intrusive than what I had to go through.
I commit a mistake, i forget that my version is the european version.
Now I have installed the b02 version. Can I unlock the bootloader? If I can not, you suggest to update the smatphone?

At the moment, there is no official bootloader unlock method for the A2017G. However, one is coming. Report to @rikin93 post here about that.
There is the unofficial way posted by @DrakenFX and showed to you by @swehes that's reported to work with the European version but since an official way is coming in the near future i would wait, it's not like unlocking now would provide anything at the moment.
About updating, it seems like a safe option to do so. It seems that @DrakenFX way of unlocking is working on both B02 and B03 anyway if ZTE ever wanted to not unlock the bootloader even tough they said they would.
I just bought my axon 7 and it came in today. I saw a week or 2 ago a post about unlocking the bootloader on B20 but I can't find it anywhere. Someone please help

First of all you need TWRP and then you can unlock your bootloader with this .

I don't have an sd car with me atm. Is there another way?
Also would you recommend rooting B27 instead?

You could flash the unlock file from your internal storage, but you lose your backup because the storage will be wiped after unlocking.
I'm having a hard time to get B27 working on my Axon, so i cant say anything to this. Maybe it is better to update first to B27.
I've got a new Axon 7 A2017G on 7.1.1 and completely lost on how to go to unlocked+TWRP+Lineage OS.
There is a rather complicated guide here (https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/how-to/guide-install-twrp-unlock-bl-flash-t3517379) but this one says that it only works from Marshmallow... So what should I do exactly? Downgrade (how to downgrade, the guide does not explain?) and use this guide? Do something else? Do something less complicated?
Thanks for your answers.
i believe you can unlock the bootloader and install twrp on nougat using the Axon7toolkit; https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/development/tool-axon7toolkit-t3573108. i am not sure how to go at it though.
You cannot unlock your nougat axon as it has since then no access to bootloader anymore.
You can try here:

I had to downgrade in order to proceed.
Copy the MM file to your phone and choose it through the update manager.
Hi forumers, just got my Zuk Edge a few days ago and been happy with the phone. But I think the phone I had is not the stock ROM by Lenovo as it has a lot of missing features. Such as the camera is swapped into the stock android Camera, No Apps Centre, or any bloatware. It is on 2.3.079 ST on Android 6.0.1. As I've read and seen from review there should be an update button to upgrade it OTA but mine doesn't have that. Did some googling and its not as easy as my previous phone to root and flash another rom. Can anyone guide me what the steps are?
From my understanding,
I Need to first Unlock the Bootloader, Then only be able to flash another stock ROM? Hope someone could kindly point me to the right direction. Thanks in advance for your kind help.
I managed to finally unlocked the Bootlaoder and on Grosshopper Nougat ROM. Everything seems fine so far. Wonder anyone of u was able to record 1080p at 60fps? Couldn't find one camera that could do so tho.

I followed the steps on this post exactly. For unlocking bootloader. Just choose Zuk Edge instead on Z1.
Once you have the file.
Follow the steps on this site.

More Problems
I have accidentally bricked my Zuk Edge. Anyone with any information that can help me is muchly appreciated. I tried factory reset on the Settings Menu in the Grosshoper ROM and now I'm having bootloop to TWRP. Please help if anyone has any tips.
