Hello, my PC broke few months ago. Is there any way for me to upgrade to Full Nougat (from v1.4 to v1.5)? I have Magisk and ADB & Fastboot module installed but that does not seem to work on any of the USB ports of Shield TV. I have version 2017, 16GB.
Is there any other workaround?

I successfully rooted using teletype's guide Shield Android TV rooted from this forum, combined with Tutorial: Root Shield Android TV 500GB (Marshmallow) from the Nvidia Shield Zone website. I think the main reason I had to borrow from the latter was that I could not get a cursor to load on the screen in TWRP using the file in the first guide, despite trying 4 different types of mice. Also, there was something in it about drivers which helped I think.
I was able to use Market Helper fine a few days ago but when I tried last night it told me it could not activate as the device was not rooted.
Did this happen because of an update and is there anyway to avoid this happening in the future while still receiving updates?
Can I re-root without having to reconnect my laptop up again?
Hi everyone,
I bought axon 7 (A2017) Chinese version from aliexpress. It's on B07 version, when trying to check OTA updates - it says no updates. If I understood correctly, that's because seller flashed gapps. No problems, I thought, I can do this myself... After 2 days of reading, downloading malware and even trying to register on chinese zte forums I give up.
-Tried simply putting update files on sd card and updating - no luck. Most probably because I can't find b08/b09 updates for straight A2017 (without U or G), have the last two only.
-Installed drivers, tried unlocking bootloader -failed. Adb works, detects device, however after rebooting to edl - adb does not detect any devices (enabled usb debugging and oem unlocking.
-tried flashing with MiFlash - errors "[2,07 COM6]:cannot receive hello packet,MiFlash is trying to reset status!"
-tried rebooting to edl manually (up/down+power) - boots, but adb does not detect devices (MiFlash sees it as com6 though)
-tried using axon7tool and minimal_adb_fastboot_v1.4 - same, detects while on, reboots to edl and nothing
-tried sideloading twrp through the adb sideload - says signatures are bad...
Oh, as a bonus, recovery is in Chinese, so I have to guess what's what
What could be the issue? Drivers, device itself? Owner? I don't want to be on the damn 6.0.1 - my nexus 5 was on that. plus zte skin is awful, I would want to flash cyanogenmod or at least a newer version that does not have the damn bell icon, or permanently stuck sms that I can't delete or mark as read
Is there a way to flash US or EU firmware? Any ideas would be welcome. And sorry for writing here - as a new user I'm unable to reply on the dev posts
Hi I have the same problem can anyone help on this issue to resolve
My unit is from aliexpress also but it was B11 when i received it. What i did was enabled usb debugging and oem unlock from dev options. Then boot in stock recovery and format the phone. I think it was the option above the choices where there is 'sd' written. Then installed the update via sd for b13.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I finally managed to do this via this method
https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/how-to/guide-b13-chinese-a2017-root-unlock-t3549873
and now I run lineageOS
you will need a laptop that you have admin access to, which allows you to disable your antivirus though.. which was my main problem
Moderators, if any, you can lock the thread
Hi man I hope you're OK. Today I was on A2017V2.1.1B07(MM) and I just downloaded B11(third one) from this link (http://www.ztedevice.com.cn/support/detail?id=B4C0ACE418834F588FED0C72D6046C78]) and put it on SD card and updated and installed it from settings(although I downloaded and put B11 on sd card, it showed B13 ROM update in settings). Then when It was finished , I got B15 Nougat OTA in settings and downloaded and installed it then again I've got B16 OTA in settings and installed it and now everything is okay. But I wanna ask you if I did it all correctly???(because I downloaded B11 Rom(not b13 rom from that link above) but I got B13 when I put that B11 on sd card and went to the setting)and Did you do the same???
Hi,
To be honest, I don't remember the actual steps. I followed this threadhttps://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/how-to/guide-b13-chinese-a2017-root-unlock-t3549873 and finally did it =)But I don't think I was able to get and instal OTA updates =) I'm on US B25 version now, and every time I update I basically use DrakenFX's builds. How do you like your axon mate?
build 16 is latest so you are up to date
Hello Everyone,
I am having lots of issues with rooting my ZC550KL. Used both the Asus Utility Unlocking tool (The APK does not install even though the unknown sources option has been enabled) and the Fastboot hangs while looking for a connected device. I have had used the Google USB Driver on Windows and the Phone is recognised, also tried this on Linux and still no luck..
Can someone help me with any other fresh Ideas on how I can get this sorted? I have had used the latest Update from Asus and updated to marshmallow. Also not sure if I can downgrade back to 5.0.2 which was the original Firmware this phone was shipped with.
Really appreciate any feedback.
After a few hours of digging, I've ended up flashing the stock Lollipop Image and now I am finally rooted..
Hello people!
I've been doing installation of custom ROM and any kind of configuration for a while now. But I have now in my hands a tough problem. My dad bought athene XT1640-DS (Moto G4 Plus), just like the one of mine own, but mine doesn't have the '-DS'.
But the device is stuck at Stock Android 6.0.1 and I can't update it.
The USB seems have some problem because any PC in my house recognize the 6.0.1 phone, but works fine with my up to date 8.1.0 athene, but it's charging only, and the turbo charging isn't working. the fingerprint isn't working neither.
It looks like the bootloader was unlooked, because everytime it's turned on shows the 'bootloarder unlock message'. But I was unable to root it, I tried all the one click root apps, but none of them worked.
It doesn't have any custom recovery, so I tried to update with the stock recovery but every OTA Blur Version rom that I found for athene shows a error telling that my ROM version isn't compatible with the updates (the ROM version code of this phone is MPJ24.139-23.1/ 1 user).
Anyone have any hints of what can I do to update this device?
Device XT-1640-DS
Android: 6.0.1
M8952_7000.04.03.32R
ATHENE_BRAZIL_DSDS_CUST
Kernel: 3.10.84-GCF01273
[email protected] #1
MPJ23.139-23.1
From what I know one click methods doesn't work with this device. You need a proper kernel for android 6.0 like elementalx 1.0. And supersu or magisk zip flashed through a recovery like TWRP.
Is there a way to update de kernel, or do that other things without PC and root?
Or a way to use adb without USB connection?
Have you tried fastboot flash methods like in this thread?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/stock-rom-npjs25-93-14-4-march-1-t3608138
So.. the big issue is that this device isn't connecting to the PC, it's charges, but neither the PC not the Android show any signs that their are connected. I can't use adb from the PC because I couldn't make the computer recognize the phone.
can you at least transfer files in mtp mode with the usb cable? because looks like the micro usb port is messed up.
If you are on warranty period you should go for it
I can't use the mtp neither. The only thing I can do is charge. And I'm out of warranty :/
Hello,
Ive got 2 Fire HD 10 11gen 2021 tablets from a ebay listing new and sealed (so cant send them back)
1 tablet got updated to 7.3.2.2 by accident so now the toolbox isn't working anymore.
Is there any way to downgrade the firmware back to a older version or any other way to change the launcher etc without it reverting back to Stock amazon ?
Or is the tablet now just a paperweight ?
Appreciate for your help.
Nope, not yet.
I downloaded the older firmware but I haven’t found a way to install it. I’ve tried just dragging it to the internal sdcard and I’ve tried ADB but there isn’ta sideload option. Any idea how I can get this older firmware I downloaded installed?
