If you unlocked your bootloader officially and installed twrp please comment below. I tried installing twrp after officially unlocking bootloader but it didn't work.
That was 6 months ago...
Now if you have successfully installed twrp please help me. I tried almost every version of twrp and don't know where I'm doing wrong. If you can share your process it might help me do the same. I'm a huge fan of developers community and i want to help.

Hi newbie here, I want to flash cm 13 on my J500F but I have few Questions,
1) DO i need root access to unlock bootloader, to flash TWRP recovery and CM13?
2) To unlock bootloader do I have to just enable the 'OEM unlock' in developer options and that will unlock my bootloader? or Is there more procedure?

So oem unlock just unlocks bootloader for custom binary like custom recovery like TWRP in our case. No you don't need to root stock rom to do that. Just flash the right version of the recovery. Next thing is to follow cm13 installation instructions (about what to wipe and so on..).
I hope that i helped you with my answers. If you continue to have questions, ask them bellow and don't forget to quote my reply so I can find yours more easy. Have a great day.
I just flashed the recovery then CM13 and it was rooted. I have however give back to CM 12.1 as CM 13 ain't finished as yet.

Rembember: If you wanna back to 5.1.1 android you need to downgrade firmware.
Yes thanks, I used Odin to reflash 5.1 first then reinstalled recovery then reinstalled Resurrection remix 12.1. it was a good move phone is running allot better than it was on CM13

XT1607 model (unlocked G4 Play) already Unlocked Bootloader, TWRP successfully flashed ... BUT NO ROOT YET! I'm stuck in startup bootloop after attempting to install SuperSU.zip from TWRP... (already tried the SUfixer.zip - no help) Also I tried wiping everything via TWRP. Is there an original stock firmware/rom/kernel/etc that I can try re-flashing to fix the bootloop? I can get into fastboot and recovery but I haven't been able to resolve the softbrick. I'm the one who always tells everyone to backup their data before trying anything. And of course I don't take my own advice!

I've already unlocked, installed TWRP and custom ROMS on several devices, so i know about fastboot, ADB, USB drivers for my device.
But with zenfone3 it's still pretty confusing for my brains so please be patient with me and explain the following:
I have a new zenofone 3 updated to stock oreo 8.0 already by OTA and i want to unlock, instal TWRP/Root and a oreo custom ROM.
In some guides for unlocking in this forum i read about flashing a RAW image before unlocking. Is this really necessary? If so: what for?
And then after unlocking i read about installing stock OREO again. hmm...
Please could somebody post here short necessary steps for my zenfone 3 with stock oreo 8.0 to instal a custom ROM OREO 8.1 on my device?
Thanks a lot in advance!

1) There are 2 ways to unlock
Official- This method is very easy (just download the bootloader unlock apk to unlock but this method will void warranty and you will not get any OTA Updates
Unofficial- This method is safe too, but it requires to flash RAW files (this method retains warranty and you will get OTA Updates)
The reason why you should flash Oreo RAW because Factory RAW can only boot FASTBOOT and touch screen will not work.
Just follow my steps and you can install custom ROM without any issues.
Hi Guys,
Couple days ago I flashed TWRP and unlocked my bootloader on my Axon 7 US version A2017U. My main reason was to install Lineage OS 15.1 but I get an Error 7 installing the official OS from Lineage website ( nightly latest version ). Then I tried using the Unofficial version and it worked. I had some glitches after install so I went back to New ZTE Official Oreo SD card installation.
I want to remove TWRP and lock my bootloader. My device shows un-rooted but because I have TWRP and bootloader in unlocked I can't download Netflix ( just an example ). I tried Draken's Bootstock zip and Stocksystem zip but after flashing those two my phone shows no OS installed. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm talking to experts so I hope someone will find a minute to help.
Hello guys, i normally don't have to ask questions in here, because there are so many good tutorials and hekp in here. But now i am stuck.
I use a OP6T with TWRP and unlocked BL and root. I use Magik and updated to the newest Magisk version, but now i am stuck in the fastbootmode
Bootloader Sersion and Baseband Version are empty in the fastboot screen. I can't use TWRP, i can't use the stock recovery mode, i only can turn off and or reboot into fastboot.
Does anybody have an idea to get this thing working again without wiping everything?
Thanks in advance
