Is it possible to get pure android on ZC520TL - Asus ZenFone 3 Questions & Answers

I'm kind of newbie, so I'm sorry if I posted anything wrong.
I'm used to a nexus 5x with "pure" android, so now that I'm using a ZC520TL I dont like it very much.
Is there a way to have the ZC520TL with android pure? some rom or something?
Please help me out.

I've had a ZC520TL for about 7 months, constantly trying to get rid of the default firmware, or at least root it, but no luck. The mediatek processor doesn't really allow you to do much tinkering. Definitely regret buying this phone

I too was thinking of getting this phone, coming for a nexus 5X but i noticed the one on special is the mediatek variant and we know they are not GPL compliant or allow unlocking bootloader

Hey I'm in the same boat with the clone of your device called the Asus Trio TX201LA. The memo pad shares the same 4.2 rom, same IFIW, Same soc, same droidboot version etc etc. Basicly its just got an all alluminum case but same exact tablet. Mine can run ME302c ROM but camera and doc support is lost. I am working on a rom using BLISS. If you are still looking to update PM me. Perhaps we can work on this together.

Team Bliss is a lil less helpful then I thought they would be, I have had little to no guidance being a noob. So unfortunately I have not gotten it off the ground, nor would I be able to with a locked bootloader anyway. I still use the windows half of the tx201la nearly daily as my main machine and love it. I wish the android could be updated and the me302c shares a lot in common. I have asked asus to look into offering unlock because that would allow me to test a lot of builds already available like the one made for the galaxy tab 3 10.1 which shares the same soc and may possibly boot up on my tablet and even the me302c. If we pester asus to release an unlock tool like they have for just about every single zenfone 2, 3, 4 and 5 (all the older zenfones have the same intel soc family) we are half way there to getting a rom since there has been so much development for this soc already in the zenfone and galaxy tab 3 10.1. Asus is somewhat required to give us something since the atom z2560 is susceptible to the spectra variant 3 (newest called next gen) and if they offer any sort of update it would be an upgrade for us. It maybe advisable to start a petition to get this done. Would you want to try that route, we need unlock first and foremost and its most likely we can convince asus to do that with enough signatures or a small claims lawsuit even. thoughts?
Hi guys, We all have the same issue, a beutiful "still" working tablet with no support.
I read several people asked for a petition or to pay a dev to work on a rom.
If you all are thinking it is worth we could **** how many people around the world
Have still this tablet, or should I open another topic?

Zte axon 7 and Zenfone 3 deluxe

Hey guys over in the zte axon thread sorry to bug but I'm desperate lol.. I was hoping some of you guys work with a little time and tinkering can possibly be ported over to the Zenfone 3 deluxe they matchup up in specs in every way except for the ram size zf3 comes with 6/64 gb.. It even has a Oreo of course without treble and the phone is rock solid I am not a developer but I can follow instructions thoroughly so if you guys can help me develop some type of vendor partion or even a lineage 16 I will forever be grateful even if not I still will be.. Asus has also released the source code and kernel with every update if that helps anything... we also have a set of edl qfil files to fix anything so I'm willing to try whatever you throw at me Thanks hope you guys let me know something

Benefits of Root and unlocked Bootloader?

What exactly is the benefits of unlocking the bootloader and rooting the YB1-X90L?
There aren't any custom roms that work with it, and from I can tell you can't uninstall any of the junk apps either.
Installing windows 10 on the android version is useless since not everything works (probably because of the bios being different between the two versions)
I already know that the source code is available, but the Stock Rom for Nougat (as far as I can tell) is not available. So there is no way to start developing a custom rom without having lots of experience with that.
So what's the point of going through all that trouble (which actually isn't that much effort I know)? The modding community for this device is completely dead from what I can see. Which kinda sucks since this tablet would be amazing if it could be loaded up with a custom rom. It's specs are far from low end, and seems to offer some really nice performance.
I really want to pick one of these up it's gonna be possible to mess around with custom ROM's....
There is no point buying this device anymore. I was pretty much hyped of because it really is a nice tablet. But for some reasons unknown it failed at XDA. I have mine Rooted, just to remove câncer apps and adware.

HTC Wildfire E Lite

I have a HTC Wildfire E Lite as a backup phone. I realise it's not like the old HTC devices in the rest of this forum - it's pretty generic hardware I suspect.
It runs Android 10 Go Edition, which I really don't like. Ideally I'd like to install a fully-fledged version of Android. To this end I've managed to unlock the bootloader, and now require a (stock) Android 10 image. Failing that, even just the right boot image for rooting (I've tried Kingoroot - no luck).. But after searching the web I can't find anything for this model of phone. Given its generic hardware, is it possible to use an image made for other devices?
Specs:
Android v10 (Q)
Quad core, 1.8 GHz, Cortex A53 processor
MediaTek Helio A20 Chipset
2 GB RAM
32 GB internal storage
Hi.
I might have an idea on how you could go about this.
Don't get me wrong: I'm not a tech guru but the info I have should be able to get you what you want.
I got most of these info because of my desperation for optimization when I owned a potato (Infinix Smart 3). It literally had no Dev support, even in XDA. My recent phone has no support either but it's smooth enough for me so I'll just share my knowledge with you!
First, I'll advice you to backup your stock ROM. Have you heard of Wwr MTK? Or SP flash tool? These are the Mediatek tools you'll need to backup your stock images. JSYK your processor, Helio A20, is codenamed MT6761D. That'll come in handy!
Use this video to learn more on how to use them:
And please I'll have to beg you not to use Kingoroot. It's a very dated root method so I'll advice you to use Magisk. Here (https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk), you'll get all the info you'll need to install Magisk.
Also, if you're looking for a stable custom ROM to use, you can use Android 10 or Android 11 GSI system image from XDA recognised Phh. Find them here( https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/releases)
Also, if you want to have the same experience as on Google Pixel devices, you could also use Pixel Experience or Pixel Experience+ GSIs. Find them here (https://github.com/ponces/treble_build_pe/releases)
If you run into any issues, you could contact me on WhatsApp (https://wa.me/2348107260090)
Or Telegram (https://t.me/si_nach) or just search @si_nach
Hope this helps! Have Fun!
Awesome! Thank you! I'm going to give it a go in the next few days and will update with the results. Much appreciated

I hope someone sees this. How do I upgrade my Meizu pro 5 to Android 9?

I'm sorry that a phone (Meizu Pro 5, Android 5.1? Flyme 5.1.2.0G) with such a powerful processor cannot work properly because its firmware is outdated. Therefore, I had the idea to upgrade it to 7 - 9 android. Help please, I'm not a geek and not a programmer, I'm a noob in these matters. There are no normal guides on the Internet, because this phone is already 7 years old.
P.S: I used a translator, sorry for the mistakes

You can upgrade the device only as long as the OEM has provided such upgrade, search for the latest stock firmware that is available for your device, you can´t go far more, this is by official methods.
If you want to use some custom (not official) ROM that was developed for your device, then search in the forum section "ROMs, kernels, Recov..." I saw there is something on 7.1
