[TUTORIAL]Download Factory Images Nexus 7 FLO - Restore back STOCK
[TUTORIAL]Download Factory Images Nexus 7 FLO - Restore back STOCK - With latest version KitKat 4.4.4
Find your Factory image for your N7 FLO - KitKat KTU84P - Download Link - - is very useful if you need to restore back your device to Stock after any modification you’ve made. If you have rooted your N7 Flo, unlocked its bootloader, installed custom recovery and roms and finally you want decided to getting back to official firmware and then to get or accept future OTA updates again. It’s the best way to restore back your device to Stock.
Coming back to stock is also useful if you have some bugs (for fixing it), Bootloop, stuck in boot screen logo and freeeeezzziiiinnnngggg, etc....But before to going back to stock, you need to read completly the tutorial and need to know
Your bootloader will be “LOCKED or UNLOCKED” when you want.
1 - Where I can can find the right Factory Image for my Nexus 7 Flo and which files I need for proceed ?
But first download and install the necessary files prior to execute this properly. Download the full factory image corresponding to your exact mode which includes the full system, bootloader, recovery, kernel (boot.img).
Unpack the TGZ Version (tar/gz) or Zip Version Archive into its own directory. I use 7-Zip, but you can use any tool that reads gz and tar.
Factory Images "razor" for Nexus 7 [2013] (Wi-Fi) - 4.4.4 (KTU84P) - Download link
If you have already installed those files, just check theirs.
Java Runtime Environment.
Android SDK | Android Developers.
Platform tools
Fastboot files
2 - PREREQUISITES
First make sure that your battery is fully charge 100% and BACKUP ALL YOUR PERSONNEL DATA
[1] - Make sure you have USB debugging turned on. For security purposes, you can turn it off after we're done
[2] - Plug-in USB cable and If you are booted into Android, open a command prompt to your ADB and Fastboot directory,
[3] - In case you are not unlock, you need to unlock your bootloader, enter the following commands:
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
If your tablet hasn't already rebooted automatically, type:
Code:
fastboot reboot
NOW WE ARE READY FOR PROCEED TO RETURN STOCK
3 - RUNNING FACTORY IMAGE
If you want to keep your data intact, don't skip this step, (if you do your data will be wiped )
With your text editor (for me it's Notepad ++,
[1] - Edit (be careful not to run it by accident instead of editing)
[2] - flash-all.bat (if you're on Windows)
[2a] - flash-all.sh (Mac, Linux)
[2b] - and remove "-w" from the fastboot update command
For example, if the line reads fastboot -w update image-razor-ktu84p.zip, it should now read: fastboot update image-razor-ktu84p.zip. The -w option instructs fastboot to wipe data.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
[3] - Reboot into the bootloader and run the appropriate flash-all script:
Code:
flash-all.bat
Done, your Nexus 7 Flo is now coming back and running Stock Android KK 4.4.4
In Case you want to come back completely to Stock, for warranty or security purpouses, you need to re-lock your bootloader now.
Enter the following commands
Code:
fastboot oem lock
If your tablet hasn't already rebooted automatically, type:
Code:
fastboot reboot
Done!

"-5: The tablet will go back to the bootloader screen. Press Power button to select Start to reboot into the unlock device
Note: Those who wish to install TWRP and root the device further, do not reboot the device. Leave the device at the same screen."
I still say you have to start and boot before you install TWRP. If you don't you get 0 MB Internal Storage on screen and twrp needs password. Can you verify this?
I had to restore my system.img and start over.
Maybe your version of TWRP does not require a reboot (Start) after OEM unlock?
I've always used clockwork on my phones... can you use clockwork in place of twrp on the nexus 7 flo?
Bricked my N7
Not new to flashing, but I made a huuuuuuuuge mistake today. I accidently flashed the wrong recovery image for the 2012 N7 (yeah, I'm an idiot). I can boot into fastboot and recovery mode, but it fails to mount the sd card so I can't do **** anymore. Can't even get it back to stock t this point Any suggestions? I'm on a mac, but have access to PC. Have tried both CWM and TWRP. TWRP just gives me the password screen and 0mb storage. Can't figure out how to get around it or get my storage mounted. Help!
Stuck in boot screen
"I still say you have to start and boot before you install TWRP. If you don't you get 0 MB Internal Storage on screen and twrp needs password. Can you verify this?

Androidfr33k, can you specify how to restore system.img? I also do the following steps without rebooting, now I'm stuck in the boot screen.
Thanks in advanced!

For the moment, TWRP recovery is the best way for most of my devices.
I've used CWM during a long time with my old devices (Htc Hero - Desire Z) - for my Desire S, I've used 4EXT recovery and now for all devices, it's TWRP
I'm waiting a CWM recovery for see.
But it's just my advice

Thanks philos64. My problem now is that I couldn't even boot into the OS, I can get into Bootloader mode or Recovery mode, but I couldn't factory reset (says "failed") or boot pass the Nexus screen. (stuck there for more than 15 minutes).
I'm sort of a noob, any help will be appreciated.

It worked! Thanks so much!
I unlocked and rooted my nexus 4 with this method. I already have SDK and fastboot on my Mac. I can go ahead with the N7, right? I don't need a different fastboot version? I'll make sure my SDK is up to date.

Yep, you should be all set
If "adb reboot bootloader" works when unlocking the bootloader but "fastboot flash recovery recovery-twrp.img" just sits there in Windows with "waiting for device" try using "adb reboot bootloader" again followed by "fastboot flash recovery recovery-twrp.img" to get the recovery image flashed. I don't take credit for it because it was said somewhere in this forum while trying to figure out the problem. My main rig has this problem but my HTPC does not. Same issue I had with my N7/2012.
Thank you OP!! I'm now running cleanrom 1.1 on my N7/2013. Let the ROM's rain!!!!
Video Tutorial
Hey guys, I've made a pretty simple video tutorial on how to Unlock the Bootloader and Root the new Nexus 7.
Here it is:
I know I don't have a well known name on the forums at all, but I thought it would at least be nice to post this. :good:
This guide worked well for me. I was able to unlock the bootloader, and it appeared that I was able to install the TWRP recovery image. However, when it went to reboot, the Nexus 'X' logo is looping. What's the best way to fix this? I can't access the device through the cmd prompt either.
EDIT: Nevermind, was able to get into the TWRP recovery image (I was panicking and didn't press the right buttons).
Note: I let TWRP install SuperSu for me, instead of downloading it and moving it on internal storage myself. Don't know that had anything to do with my issues but just wanted to share a heads-up.

[SIZE=+3]Intro[/SIZE]
This thread will serve as a location for basic how-to guides for the Pixel XL (Marlin). I'm going to start off with a couple of the more obvious ones and go from there.
[size=+3]Prerequisites[/size]:
If you are on Verizon, please follow dePixel8 guidelines prior to using this thread
Always update your phone to the latest build available before starting the unlocking/rooting process.
You'll need a working adb/fastboot environment on your PC to get through some of these guides.
You must have Java installed and up to date in order to use the SDK Manager, please ensure that this is taken care of before installing the SDK.
Please do not install adb/fastboot via any means other than the Android SDK, using other tools (like Minimal adb & fastboot) can lead to an outdated setup and various problems with flashing. You've been warned, other tools will not be supported in this thread.
Go here to download the Android SDK, which will give you most updated version of adb and fastboot. Scroll to the bottom of the page and find Other Download Options>SDK Tools Only, and grab the right version for your OS. While it's downloading create a folder in C: called SDK (C:SDK). Once you've downloaded the zip you can extract it into your C:SDK folder. Navigate to C:SDKandroid-sdk-windows and open SDK Manager.exe. In SDK Manager you need to install the following packages:
Tools> Android SDK Tools, Android SDK Platform-tools
Extras> Android Support Library, Google USB Driver
Once you have installed those, inside C:SDK you should see some new folders, one of them will be called platform-tools, within that folder you should see fastboot.exe and adb.exe. I'll refer to this as your fastboot folder/directory or working folder/directory during this guide. To make sure adb is correctly installed, open a command prompt from within your fastboot folder (hold shift + right click, select open command prompt here) and issue this command:
Code:
adb version
If it returns a version number for Android Debug Bridge then you're good to go.
You can test adb by connecting your device to your PC while booted into Android (making sure that adb/usb debugging is enabled in Settings>Developer Options) with the screen unlocked and issuing this command:
Code:
adb devices
It should return your device serial number, if so, adb is working.
You can test fastboot by connecting your device to your PC while booted into the bootloader (power + volume down) and issuing this command:
Code:
fastboot devices
It should return your device serial number, if so, fastboot is working.
[SIZE=+3]Quick Tips[/SIZE]
How to boot into the bootloader:
Power off your device. Once it's powered off hold power + volume down and the phone will boot into the bootloader. You can also use the following adb command:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader

[SIZE=+3]1. How To Unlock Your Bootloader[/SIZE]
Go into Settings/About Phone, scroll down and click on “build number” continuously until you see a toast notification telling you that you've enabled Developer Options. Go back to your Settings menu and enter Developer Options, scroll down and click on the “Enable OEM Unlock” checkbox, also make sure you enable USB Debugging while you're in the Developer Options menu.
Power off your phone then boot into the bootloader (power + volume down).
Connect your phone to your PC via usb cable.
Open a command prompt from within your fastboot folder (navigate to where you have fastboot.exe located on your PC, shift + right click anywhere within that folder, select open command prompt here).
Check your fastboot connection by issuing this command:
Code:
fastboot devices
It should return your device serial number, if not you need to make sure your drivers are installed correctly.
Once you've confirmed your fastboot connection issue the unlock command:
Code:
fastboot flashing unlock
This will erase all user data from the device!
You should now see a screen on your phone asking you to confirm this action, use the volume keys to scroll and the power key to confirm if you're sure you want to go ahead.
Allow the process to complete and then issue this command:
Code:
fastboot reboot
Allow everything to go ahead and once finished you can disconnect your usb cable.
Note: After unlocking your bootloader, each time your phone boots up you'll be greeted with a warning that says "Your device software can't be checked for corruption. Please lock the bootloader". This is nothing to worry about, it's normal to see this when you have an unlocked bootloader. You can't remove it, as long as your bootloader is unlocked it will stay there.
Important: do not relock your bootloader unless your phone is fully stock. You must flash the factory images first in order to remove root and custom recovery (if you have them), if this precaution isn't taken you may end up with a brick. Please see section 10 of this guide for full instructions on how to return to stock.
[SIZE=+3]2. How To Install TWRP On Your Device[/SIZE]
Prerequisites: unlocked bootloader (section 1).
Warning: TWRP is currently in RC1 phase and is not fully stable, flash at your own risk.
This guide assumes you have just unlocked your bootloader and are otherwise stock, NO root yet.
Download the necessary files (IMG and Zip) from the TWRP website and add the TWRP zip to your internal storage: https://dl.twrp.me/marlin/
Place the IMG file in your fastboot folder (this is where fastboot.exe is located on your PC)
Boot into the bootloader. Open a command prompt from within your fastboot folder (navigate to where you have fastboot.exe located on your PC, shift + right click anywhere within that folder, select open command prompt here), enter this command:
Code:
fastboot boot path/to/twrp.img
(The TWRP filename in the command will change depending on which recovery you're flashing)
This will temporarily boot TWRP on your device. If you are using a lockscreen pin/pattern/password and do not get prompted to enter your password, reboot to the bootloader and try again. Go to install and browse to the zip and install the TWRP zip
[SIZE=+3]3. How To Root[/SIZE]
Prerequisites: unlocked bootloader (section 1), TWRP recovery (section 2).
Download the latest SuperSU of your choosing to your phone:
https://download.chainfire.eu/1013/SuperSU/SR4-SuperSU-v2.78-SR4-20161115184928.zip
Boot into TWRP recovery and enter the install menu.
Navigate to where you have SuperSU stored on your internal storage and select it.
Swipe to install.
Thats it, reboot and you should have TWRP and SuperSU installed
[SIZE=+3]4. How To Root via Fastboot[/SIZE]
Prerequisites: unlocked bootloader (section 1)
Special Note: This is for users who do not have or want TWRP installed and want to run stock root
Download Chainfire's root-marlin-pixelxl.zip located here: https://download.chainfire.eu/1011/CF-Root1/root-marlin-pixelxl.zip
Extract Chainfire's zip and follow the instructions in the read me
Code:
***** The short guide *****
*BOOT* (do not flash!) the supplied image, and wait a few minutes:
fastboot boot boot-to-root.img
***** The long guide *****
Before you root your device, you need to unlock your bootloader, if you haven't done so yet.
If you are using a Verizon device, you need a special tool for that. Go find that first.
- Boot into Android
- Enable developer options
--- Settings -> About phone -> Build number: tap 7 times
- Enable OEM unlocking
--- Settings -> Developer Options -> OEM unlocking
- Go into bootloader mode
--- Turn off device
--- Hold volume down and power
- Run "fastboot flashing unlock" and follow the on-screen instructions
--- This will wipe your device
To root your device:
- Go into bootloader mode, if not there already
--- Turn off device
--- Hold volume down and power
- Run "fastboot boot boot-to-root.img"
--- Wait for a few minutes. The device will reboot at least twice
- You should be rooted once Android is fully booted up
*****
Enjoy!

[SIZE=+3]5. How To Install A ROM with TWRP Recovery[/SIZE]
Prerequisites: unlocked bootloader (section 1), TWRP recovery (section 2).
Pending......
[SIZE=+3]6. How To Install A Custom Kernel With TWRP Recovery[/SIZE]
Prerequisites: unlocked bootloader (section 1), TWRP recovery (section 2).
A custom kernel can open up a new level of control over your device, such as overclocking/underclocking, undervolting, changing governors, changing I/O schedulers, adjusting colour calibrations, adjusting sound calibrations, and many other options.
Download a kernel that is compatible with your current ROM.
Check the md5 to verify its integrity.
Enter TWRP recovery.
Select the install option from the TWRP home screen.
Navigate to the kernel and select it.
Swipe to install.
You'll have an option to wipe cache/dalvik and an option to reboot system, hit the reboot system button.
Once your phone has booted up you can use a kernel tuning app to change governors, I/O scheduler, clock speed, and other options. Some of the popular kernel apps are Kernel Auditor, Trickster Mod, No Frills, Kernel Tuner, and many more.
[SIZE=+3]7. How To Install A Custom Kernel via Fastboot[/SIZE]
Prerequisites: unlocked bootloader (section 1)
This guide is for users who DO NOT have TWRP installed, and want to Fastboot flash custom kernels.
Check the md5 to verify its integrity.
Download the kernel file you want to flash from whichever kernel developer you'd like
Place the file in your fastboot folder
Open a command prompt within that folder and run
Code:
fastboot flash kernel kernel_binary
kernel_binary will be replaced with whatever the file name (ie fk-r5.gz for Franco's Kernel)
Reboot your device.
Special Note: You may lose root if you had SuperSU pre-installed, you will need to re root following Section 4 (How to Root via Fastboot)
[SIZE=+1]8. How To Flash The Factory Images (And Return To Stock)[/SIZE]
Prerequisites: unlocked bootloader (section 1).
This section will explain how to return the phone to be like it was when it came out of the box. This will wipe everything from the phone. If you wish to flash the factory images without wiping your personal data from the internal storage please move on to the next section.
Download the appropriate factory images for your model https://developers.google.com/android/images
Unzip the marlin-xxxxxx-factory-xxxxxxxx (marlin-nmf26o-factory-4f68765c) into a directory on your PC (for this guide we'll use C:\marlin\).
Once unzipped you should have a folder named marlin-xxxxxx (marlin-nmf26o).
Move the contents of this folder into your Fastboot/ADB environment so that you can run fastboot and adb commands. (Note: I do the opposite and move the most current fastboot and ADB from the Android SDK into this folder)
Look for the windows batch file named "flash-all.bat" and double click on it. This should begin the proper full clean flash of all images back to stock. This should take a few minutes, but eventually your phone should reboot on its own and take you to the Android set up screen.
If you wish to you can also relock the bootloader with this command:
Code:
fastboot flashing lock
(This command will wipe all user data from the device)
Important: do not lock the bootloader unless you have first flashed the stock images. Locking the bootloader while you have a custom recovery installed can result in a brick. Please also note that the locking procedure will wipe all user data from the device.
Once all commands/flashes are complete you can reboot the device:
Code:
fastboot reboot
[size=+4]Frequently Asked Questions[/size]
1. How do I boot into the bootloader?
Power off your device. Once it's powered off hold power + volume down and the phone will boot into the bootloader. You can also use the following adb command:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
2. When issuing the fastboot flashing unlock command it doesn't work, I only get a list of possible commands. What's going on?
This is usually due to having an outdated adb/fastboot setup. If you installed adb/fastboot by any means other than via the Android SDK this is probably the cause. Visit the prerequisites section in the beginning of this guide to properly install adb/fastboot and ensure that it's up to date.
3. After unlocking the bootloader I get a message that says "Your device software can't be checked for corruption. Please lock the bootloader". What's going on? Can I get rid of it?
This is nothing to worry about, it's normal to see this when you have an unlocked bootloader. You can't remove it, as long as your bootloader is locked it will stay there.
4. How do I take an OTA or update if I have root or other system modifications on the stock ROM?
You can't take an OTA update while you have root or any system modifications. You'd need to use fastboot to flash the system, boot, and recovery images. It's much easier to just flash the newer build with fastboot.
5. Does taking an OTA update wipe my user data?
No, it doesn't.
6. Do I need to flash the userdata.img from the factory images?
You should never flash the userdata image. It doesn't take into consideration the storage capacity of the device and always allocates 32gb of storage. This is ok for the 32gb model, but for the 64gb and 128gb models you'll end up with much less storage capacity than you should have. If you wish to wipe your internal storage you'd use the following command instead:
Code:
fastboot format userdata

Don't forget to pin this
Dude, awesome
Looking good @bajasur!
Nice! Great job...should definitely be pinned
Thanks so much @bajasur! I always used the one by the famous @Heisenberg for the 6P and its great to have one for the Pixel XL.
Any plans to also include the step-by-step for restoring back to stock?

Yes, there is a lot more to come. For now to restore to stock I recommend running the flash-all.bat file that comes within the factory image folder.
A detailed step by step image flashing guide will be linked in the next few days.

For Verizon you need to follow the unlock method provided by DePixel Devs. Once you have unlocked the rooting and twrp methods should work.

So this is not the correct guide for a Verizon Pixel is it? Besides the sunshine website has anyone made a guide like this yet for the Verizon model

Other than flashing dePixel8 to allow bootloader unlocking, all other steps are identical.

Does rooting without TWRP cause bootloops on NDE63V? I tried it with the all-in-one tool and couldn't get my Pixel to boot past the 4 dots when I was on NDE63V.
I have since flashed the Npf26j update. Would it be safe to root via chainfire's method? Wanted to avoid TWRP for now incase I get the data drain bug.
Thanks!

Note: Redmi Note 4 can be unlocked ONLY with China Developer firmware.
That's why to unlock the bootloader, first you need to flash China Developer ROM.
Then unlock bootloader, and then install any desired ROM.
Prerequisite:
1. Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 (MTK) phone (Codename: nikel). Both version supported: 2GB / 3GB RAM.
2. Unlock approval from MIUI -> Obtain it from here
3. Mi Unlock app -> Download from here
4. Drivers & SP Flash Tool -> Download from here
5. Latest Redmi Note 4 China Developer Version Fastboot -> Download form here (TGZ file). Note: for unbrick, you may chose Global ROM as well.
6. Custom CUST.BIN file -> Download from here
Steps to Unlock Bootloader:
1. Install drivers. Drivers are found in folder MTK_Driver_Installer_.1352 ext. To install, run DriverInstaller.exe as Administrator.
Edit: Some users reported that they cannot install drivers on Windows 10. If this is the case, you need to disable Driver Signature Enforcement in Windows by running the following command in CMD (Run as administrator) and then restart PC:
Code:
bcdedit.exe -set loadoptions DISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS
bcdedit.exe -set TESTSIGNING ON
2. Extract ROM files (from TGZ file) in a new folder.
3. After extract, go to \images and replace CUST.IMG with custom one. This is very important!
4. Run flash_tool.exe as Administrator.
5. After program starts, click on Download Agent and select file MTK_All_In_One_DA.BIN. The file is located in SP Flash tool folder.
6. Next, click on Scatter-loading button file select MT6797_Android_scatter.txt . The file is located in ROM \images folder.
7. The phone partition will show-up. Uncheck preloader, and select all others partitions.

10. Wait for process to complete (about 3-5 minutes). A Download Ok message will appear.
11. Remove the USB cable and hold Power button until phone vibrates. Now wait to finish the first boot (may take up to 10minutes).
12. Congrats, now you have a China Developer firmware. After boot, select English and follow the first setup steps. Don't skip steps! Login to MI account.
13. Go to Setting -> About phone -> And tap on MIUI version for 10 times. This will enable Developer options.
14. Go to Setting -> Additional settings -> Developer options -> OEM Unlocking and allow unlocking. This will pair your MI account with your MI phone, in order to unlock. Also turn on USB debugging.
15. Go to i.mi.com and login. Then tap on Find device. Wait a minute to find your device (will appear: Online, Located).
16. Start MI Unlock app and follow the steps. To put your phone in Fastboot mode: turn off the phone -> press Volume Down + Power and keep it until Fastboot Mode screen appears.
17. Congrats, now you have unlocked bootloader on Redmi Note 4.
How to Check Bootloader Status:
Use this command from Fastboot Mode:
Code:
fastboot getvar unlocked
The command will return an [yes/no] response, meaning:
"yes" -> Unlocked bootloader
"no" -> Locked bootloader
Steps to install TWRP recovery:
1. Download TWRP recovery image from here
2. Run in ADB console:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash recovery cofface_twrp_nikel_recovery1124.img
fastboot boot cofface_twrp_nikel_recovery1124.img
Steps to Unbrick:
Are basically the same as unlocking... only that you can use Global ROM or China Stable ROM to flash, but the procedure is exactly the same.
Don't connect the phone yet!
1. Install drivers. Drivers are found in folder MTK_Driver_Installer_.1352 ext. To install, run DriverInstaller.exe as Administrator.
2. Extract ROM files (from TGZ file) in a new folder.
3. After extract, go to \images and replace CUST.IMG with custom one. This is very important!
4. Run flash_tool.exe as Administrator.
5. After program starts, click on Download Agent and select file MTK_All_In_One_DA.BIN. The file is located in SP Flash Tool folder.
6. Next, click on Scatter-loading button file select MT6797_Android_scatter.txt . The file is located in ROM \images folder.
7. The phone partition will show-up. Uncheck preloader, and select all others partitions.
8. Turn off the phone. Click Download button. Don't connect yet the phone to computer.
9. On the phone, hold the Volume Down (-) button and then connect the USB cable. Hold the Volume Down (-) pressed untill it is detected by the SP Flash Tool and the flashing process begins (see yellow progress bar).
10. Wait for process to complete (about 3-5 minutes). A Download Ok message will appear.
11. Remove the USB cable and hold Power button until phone vibrates. Now wait to finish the first boot (may take up to 10minutes).
12. Congrats, with some luck, now you have unbricked your phone.

Pretty sure it is. However, you can check by running this command in fastboot mode:
Code:
fastboot getvar unlocked
It will return a YES/NO response.
If return is "Yes" -> Unlocked Status
If return is "No" -> Locked status

Great! I'm glad it's unlocked.
I told you how to check the bootloader status, it was't a tutorial about it... drivers are needed anytime you connect the phone to PC
CUST.IMG is important to be changed because of 2 reasons:
1. some users reported that lost their IMEI if they flashed with original CUST.IMG (IMEI can be easy recovered, but still...)
2. some users get an [Status_Sec_Image_Too_Large] error with original CUST.IMG like here:
This CUST.IMG fixes this issues
Thanks , is there anyway to flash only cust.img without flashing the whole rom. Because i already beautifully customized my settings & apps, so i dont want loose it.

No need to do that. Flashing only Cust.bin does nothing.
Do you want to unlock your device?
Ok, thanks. I will try.
My device is already unlocked.
So, i just need to flash TWRP.

Yes, i tested myself on Windows 10 Pro - 64bit.
Try and disable Driver Signature Enforcement in Windows by running the folowing command in CMD (Run as administrator)
Code:
bcdedit.exe -set loadoptions DISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS
bcdedit.exe -set TESTSIGNING ON
Restart your PC and try again.

I tried to install the drivers on Windows 10 Home 32bit.
I have tried to run this in cmd (as admin):
bcdedit.exe -set loadoptions DISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS
bcdedit.exe -set TESTSIGNING ON
The second line does not go through.
Rough translation of the error from Czech:
Value is protected by save startup properties and cannnot be changed or deleted.
Thanks for any feedback! I really appreciate it.
EDIT: Ok, I have tried my work laptop with 64 bit Windows 10 on it. Drivers installed fine!

Hi, I wanted to remind you that you should check before flashing anything the critical device true.
Ok guys ... it works, I installed it.
I will explain how I did it.
The first thing is to download the files.
Use fastboot tools of the link.
A fastboot tools add unlocked Zip and MAF32.exe from minimal adb.
I did it from EUI6.INSTALE EUI6 BEFORE STARTING.
Put in TF in fastboot mode and connect to the pc.
Open the platform-tools folder that contains all the files plus the TWRP THAT WE SHOULD PLACE INSIDE, ANOTHER.COPY IN THE DESKTOP.
We run the unlocker.bat When it finishes it reboots the TF automatically.
We let it restart before going back to fastboot.
It may happen that it does not return to fastboot. In this case we force recovery and we mark update and cleanup, execute and restart normally.
We put back fastboot.
We verify the state_fastboot oem device-info.
It has to give true in critical.
If it is not true, we execute the .bat again but this time we do not allow it to restart keeping pressing v-
We are in fastboot and check the status again with the command. I did it with two CMD windows open at the same time, one to verify and the other to execute.
The normal thing is that of true in that attempt.
If you do not give it repeat the .bat keeping v
Always check before installing twrp.
We already have true.
In the same window we execute;
fastboot flash recovery (name) .img
It will give ok.
Restart the TF in recovery mode.
30 seconds v + / power at the same time.
Once inside the TWRP.We make wipes of everything except internal storage (those who do not have usb-otg must have copied the ROM to internal storage).
We install the moden, the ROM, the moden again, and restart.

I installed the 21s and it seems that we have a bug. If we turn off the TF it does not turn on normally. It works when connecting the charger or from recovery. Restart does it normally.
Thanks for great work!

Make sure your compilation has the following constituent files:
adb.exe
fastboot.exe
AdbWinApi.dll
AdbWinUsbApi.dll
libwinpthread-1.dll
Important in this compilation is a file libwinpthread-1.dll

Hey everyone!
I've updated TWRP to the latest version (3.3) and it's now using a source built kernel! The kernel and tree source is in my GitHub (link in the first post)
Download: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=6006931924117931532
ANNOUNCEMENT: I'M STOPPING THE FOLLOW UP AND UPDATE OF THIS TOPIC TODAY, IF SOMEONE WANTS TO TAKE OVER, CONTACT THE MODERATOR IN THIS LINK.
THE TOPIC REMAINS AS IT IS AND WILL NOT BE UPDATED ANYMORE (BY ME ANYWAY!)
GOOD CONTINUATION TO ALL
Hey everyone,
It's been a few days since the Phone(1) went on sale. And already, Nothing is doing things right by making the Phone(1) Kernel available. The next step was to unlock the bootloader and root it. Both are already available and ready to use.
So don't deprive yourself and here is the process of the two operations.
You've already unlocked the bootloader and rooted a carrierless variant of either a Google Pixel or OnePlus, you should have no problem unlocking your Nothing Phone (1) and installing Magisk. For those of you with a memory lapse, here is a tutorial to guide you through the process.
- Disclaimer: I don't take any responsibility for anything you do to your tablet, which is to transform it into brick, break, or transform it into coffee machine -

How to bootloader unlock and root the Nothing Phone 1After unlocking the bootloader, you can use Magisk to root the device.
You must first unlock the bootloader in order to be able to start third-party software. Here's how to do it:
Step 1: Unlock the Nothing Phone 1’s bootloader
Open the Settings app on your Nothing Phone 1.
Tap on About phone.
Locate the section named Software info and tap on it.
On the next screen, tap on the Build number 7 times until it says you’re now a developer.
Go back to the main Settings page, tap on System, and near the bottom of the list, you should see Developer options. Tap on it.
You should see an OEM unlocking option. Enable it. For security purposes, it may ask you to input your lock screen PIN/password if you have one set.
Scroll down a bit until you see USB debugging. Enable it as well.
Plug in your Nothing Phone 1 into your PC/Mac/Chromebook. Make sure you have the Latest version of ADB and Fastboot (33.0.3) binaries installed.
Now open up a terminal window/Command Prompt instance and enter the following command: adb devices
If you see your device’s serial number and it says “authorized,” then you’re good to go. If this is your first time setting up ADB for this device, then you may see a prompt on your phone to enable USB Debugging for your PC. Grant it permission.
If you’re having trouble getting your Windows PC to recognize your device, try installing the latest Android USB Drivers.
Now, reboot to the bootloader menu. You can either do this by holding the power and volume down buttons while booting up, or by entering the following ADB command: adb reboot bootloader
Once you’re on the bootloader menu, you’ll now have to switch to using fastboot command to communicate with your device. To unlock the Nothing Phone 1’s bootloader, enter the following command: fastboot flashing unlock
In case you need to flash low-level firmware partitions like the bootloader images, you will have to execute another command afterwards: fastboot flashing unlock_critical
[NOT A MANDATORY TO UNLOCK CRITICAL, IT'S FOR ME BETTER TO NOT USE THIS COMMAND, THIS COMMAND COULD BE THE REASON SOME PEOPLE HAVE BRICK OR NOT WHEN GO BACK STOCK NOS]
You should now see text on screen warning you about the potential risks of unlocking the bootloader. On the screen next to the power and volume buttons, you should see some text. Press the volume up key until it says “unlock the bootloader.” Once it says this, press the power button.
The phone will unlock the bootloader and reboot back to the bootloader menu. This time, the bootloader will show a red warning icon and “unlocked” text.
Now, reboot your phone back to the Android OS. You can do this by sending the following fastboot command: fastboot reboot
Congratulations, your Nothing Phone 1 now has an unlocked bootloader!
You’ll see a warning message that your phone’s bootloader is unlocked on every boot, but don’t worry about that as it doesn’t affect your day-to-day use.
Step 2 - Rooting your Nothing Phone 1 with MagiskWith an unlocked bootloader, you can now boot modified boot images. For Magisk to work, you’ll need to patch the Nothing Phone 1’s stock boot image.
Since your device has been wiped earlier, you’ll need to go back and re-enable Developer Options and then re-enable USB Debugging. Make sure your Nothing Phone 1 is still recognized by your PC.
Download the full OTA package corresponding to the installed software version on the Nothing Phone 1.
Depending of your model, you have Global or EEA (European) firmware availables.
You can download the latest full OTA firmware package here.
Extract the stock boot image from the OTA package. For more information, take a look the “You have access to the recovery-flashable ZIP file” section our “How to Install Magisk on your Android Phone” tutorial.
In case you don’t want to download the whole OTA file, you can separately download the boot image just to the post #2 or from this post. However, to avoid version mismatch and other unforeseen errors, it is always advised to extract the boot image yourself.
Now that we have the stock boot image to patch, push it to your device with this command: adb push <path_to_file> /sdcard/Download
Download and install the Magisk app on the Nothing Phone 1.
Open the Magisk app and tap on the Install button.
Choose Select and Patch a File. A file manager will pop up.
Select the boot image that you pushed earlier and let Magisk patch it.
Pull it off your phone with this command: adb pull /sdcard/Download/magisk_patched_[random_strings].img
Reboot the Phone 1 into the bootloader: adb reboot bootloader
Flash the patched boot image: fastboot flash boot /path/to/magisk_patched_boot.img
Reboot the phone: fastboot reboot
Open the Magisk app and your Nothing Phone 1 should be rooted.
Keep in mind that unlocking the bootloader and rooting your Nothing Phone 1 will impact how you take advantage of updates. You'll have to learn to manually load monthly security patch updates. But don't worry, it's easy enough to do.

Unbricking Nothing phone 1: Flash Stock Firmware with Fastboot
- Disclaimer: I don't take any responsibility for anything you do to your tablet, which is to transform it into brick, break, or transform it into coffee machine -
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Warning : The process below will erase all the data on your device. So, I invite you to make a full backup of the device beforehand.
Unfortunately, as I don't own the Phone(1) yet, I am unable to take screenshots with the Phone(1) at the moment. As soon as I can, I will put them online to finalize the tutorial. Thank you for your understanding
STEP 1: What you need and read before the process.
It’s really important for a process without problems
Install Android SDK and the Platform-tools folder
Download the Nothing OS version you need (see this post)
Extract the "payload bin" file from the rom
Extract the Firmware Stock "boot.img" from the rom (see this tutorial)
Unlock the bootloader of your Phone(1) (see this tutorial)
STEP 2: Boot the bricked phone 1 into Fastboot mode
Very often, a soft-bricked or boot-looped device may already be in Fastboot mode. However, if you are stuck in a boot-loop, long press the Power key to turn it off.
Then press and hold the Power and Volume Down keys (or Power and Volume Up keys on some devices) simultaneously to boot your device into Fastboot mode.
In case you are unable to turn off your device, let the battery discharge. Once it is drained, connect it to the charger. Then, as soon as it is about to start, use the Power and Volume Up/Down keys and it will start directly in Fastboot mode.
STEP 3: Format the device via Fastboot
1.Go to the platform-tools folder where the extracted ROM is located.
2.Then go to its address bar, type CMD in its address, and press Enter. This will launch the CMD window.
3.Now run the following command to perform a factory reset (optional but recommended)
Code:
fastboot -w
STEP 4: Flash the Nothing Phone 1 firmware via the Fastboot commands
Run the commands below in the CMD window [which is open in the platform-tools folder] to flash the partition file.
Very Important: Only run one command at a time. If you get an error, however, do not exit the process halfway, but go on to the next flashing command instead.
Don't forget to check your command line before validating it, because often a small error blocks you!
Spoiler: Command Lines
Code:
fastboot flash abl abl.img
fastboot flash aop aop.img
fastboot flash bluetooth bluetooth.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash cpucp cpucp.img
fastboot flash devcfg devcfg.img

flash fastboot vbmeta_system vbmeta_system.img
fastboot flash vendor vendor.img
fastboot flash vendor_boot vendor_boot.img
flash fastboot xbl xbl.img
fastboot flash xbl_config xbl_config.img
Step 5: If you have not had any errors, then you can run the command below to boot your device onto the operating system.
Code:
fastboot reboot
Well done , you have just debricked your Nothing Phone 1 by flashing the stock firmware via the fastboot commands.
I hope this tutorial has helped you find your Phone(1).
Thanks

FILES FOR NOTHING OS - (stock-boot, etc. )
UPDATE 15/12/2022
Stock_Boot for Nothing OS here
Be carefull, be sure to select the good Stock Boot "Global" or "EEA" for your device.
Extract Payload.bin via Payload Dumper Go
To start, download the payload-dumper-go 1.0.0 from Github [Credits: XDA Member @ssssut].
Then extract it to any convenient location on your PC. The file name will be something like payload-dumper-go_1.0.0_windows_amd64.
Rename it to payload-dumper-go.
Next, download the liblzma-5.dll file and transfer it to the same folder where the payload-dumper-go.exe file is located.
After that, transfer the payload.bin file to this folder as well.
So, from now on, you should have the 3 files payload-dumper-go.exe, payload.bin and liblzma-5.dll in one folder.
{
"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"
}
Now go to the address bar of that folder, type "cmd" and press Enter. This will launch the command prompt window.
Type the command below to extract the payload.bin file:
Code:
payload-dumper-go payload.bin
The extraction process will now begin and will only take a few seconds.
Once this is done, all extracted files will be placed in a folder named extract_date_time which is created in this directory like this name : extracted_20220731_145751
The process is very simple and very fast. Anyone can do it. So don't hesitate, you have everything you need to do this yourself.
it's up to you now
If this has helped you, and if you appreciate my help.
Thanks

Hi! I don't know what the best solution would be, but I would definitely try it if I access the fastboot mode from recovery, reunlock the previously modded and closed bootloader, that is currently on the phone. Ater restarting the phone and its boots up, i would put back the one corresponding to the original software's in recovery fastboot mode and then close it. if the phone started, I do the next sw ota update, restart it and patch its bootloader with magic, then open again the new sw's bootloader from fastboot then flash the magisk patched one. But with thiese solution, you will lose all of your data and application from the phone, same like after you first unlocked the bootloader. ( like factory reset ). I hope it's understandable, unfortunately my English is not very good.
No matter from which partition (A/B)

I'm just testing the phone (driving another one yet) so I have no issues with losing data. But the only thing that worked for me was to unlock again the bootloader and then change the active partition (from B to A) within fastboot. After that I could boot the system and do a factory reset.
My issue now is that I'm still with an unlocked bootloader and whether I lock it with one partition marked as active or the other I can't boot to system.

And what if you flash back the original bootloader to over the unlocked one, and after it you close it, not the modded one?

No matter from which partition (A/B)
I'm just testing the phone (driving another one yet) so I have no issues with losing data. But the only thing that worked for me was to unlock again the bootloader and then change the active partition (from B to A) within fastboot. After that I could boot the system and do a factory reset.

Also, doing a factory reset from recovery doesn't relock the bootloader either.
I've tried now to sideload the .zip but it seems that even the supposed 1.1.0 full OTA zip available in the other post is older than my current ROM, so it can't be flashed like that. I'll have to wait for the next update.
