Is there an up to date guide for Rooting A2017G B04?

I am looking unlock and root my European Axon 7 running Android 7.1, and all of the guides seem to be for The US version and for Android marshmallow, do I need to revert my phone to an older version (if so how would I go around doing so?). Is there any up to date guides for rooting my version of the phone?

I used this guide 2 weeks ago to unlock my wife's german axon 7, her phone was on 7.1 stock too, but no issue, you don't have to be on marshmallow. Only advice I can give you is to read the guide 2 times or more and take your time.
Btw after you done everything use the b05 modem, my wife has no call issues with this version. I flashed the dark rom to her phone, works nearly perfect.

Why though? I also used that one, but you should try axon7toolkit. It seemingly does everything automatically and with an ok CMD interface

Yes that's a nice option too, but reading, understanding and knowing what you're doing always works. I'm not a fan of Kit's.
personal choice I think. But you're right.

It seems like very few people actually use the kit. Kinda defeats the purpose.
But yeah, that guide was how I learnt how to install TWRP via axon7tool whenever I needed it.

Toolkit or step by step with the guide ? just start from scratch again, or try with the kit.

Step by Step, I managed to unlock it and flash the bootstack, but I hit an error when trying to flash LOS and so decided to reboot the system and try again, however when rebooting the system I got the error "Your device software can't be checked for corruption, Please lock the bootloader". And I cant seem to access TWRP anymore, just the stock recovery.
Im just wondering if I can just flash stock because I cant use my phone at all atm

Then flash twrp again, if your on stock recovery. You need twrp. Something must replaced twrp with the stock recovery.
After you flashed twrp use the files from the official Los thread
Bootloader and modem.

Unfortunately I cant seem to view the phone as an adb device, unless i select the "Apply update from adb" option in the stock recovery, however this only lets me sideload and i cant reboot it to edl mode or anything like that to install TWRP.

What happens if you are on stock recovery and type adb reboot edl. Another way to get to edl mode can be to shut down the phone and press both volume keys while connecting the USB cable, I read that somewhere here, may need some trys.
Btw,
"Your device software can't be checked for corruption" this is normal if your unlocked.

I tried the volume button thing and it must have worked because i redid the scripts and managed to get TWRP back up!
now I just need to do the universal bootstack, the N_Modem thing, and then LOS Right?
Thanks so much for your help

Good, you did it. Yes, after you flashed the latest official twrp,
flash the bootloader zip and modem zip which are linked at the first page of the Los thread, then your prefered rom with gapps and root if you like.
DON'T relock your bootloader !!!
Have fun!

[HELP] I would like to go into developer options but I can not

Hello to all,
first of all sorry for my English, i'm using google translate, I do not know if you can help me here.
I bought this jewel from Gearbest and arrived yesterday.
I would like to unlock the bootloader and root it following this wonderful guide , but I can not get into developer options, I get the error "the settings application crashed abnormally"
I wanted to do this via the toolkit, but in EDL mode the phone is not recognized, maybe because in developer options I have to select the OEM UNLOCK.
The only good thing is that it recognizes usb debugging mode (at least I think) because I see the debug notification icon.
I can not understand where it came from, I went into bootloader mode but did not release me information.
From the onscreen screen I can only provide these info:
model number zte a2017g
version android 6.0.1
kernel version 3.18.20
build number zte a2017gv1.0.0b11
baseband version th.2.0.c1.9-00050-m8996faaaanazm
The MiFlavor version is 4.0
The smartphone does not receive OTA updates. I downloaded the global version (b05) of Nougat, the update with Android started I did not find it (I renamed the rom file in update.zip and put in the root of the SD CARD). I tried through recovery mode but it does not do anything to me, it's as if the smartphone was locked in everything and for everything.
I'm doing well ? How do I update when I download the rom? Can you please help me? Is there any system to interact with this smartphone and unlock it? I do not want to keep a phone that I can not update and root it.
Thanks in advance to who will help.

UPDATE:
I tried to manually install the downloaded ROM, but in recovery mode it does not flash the new rom ... the phone does not even try it !!!
It's as if the phone was locked in everything and I only have to keep the installed rom.
Some idea ?

Hey I would recommend clearing the data for settings if you can. To do this go to your launcher, find the settings icon and either drag or hold down or do whatever it takes to get to the app info. I haven't used stock in a long time so idk. But then go into storage and clear data. Then go and try again.
I do have one question though. How did you get usb adb debugging enabled if you didn't get into developer options at all?
For the second half of your question you won't be able to flash anything without first unlocking the bootloader and flashing TWRP onto the device. For the devices recovery idk which one you meant, but it needs to be TWRP. Good luck!

Thanks to my friend, without doing anything, suddenly, he made me enter the developer options menu.
I've been able to do the rest.
Now I have the phone with unlocked bootloader, root and TWRP installed.
Do not ask me how I got the debug without going into the menu, I could not answer you ... it will remain a mystery !!!
I take advantage of your availability: can I flash the zip of the official ROM through TWRP? Or is there a risk that the phone goes into brick mode?

You can't flash an official zip through TWRP, it will just fail. No brick.
Edit: didn't read OP lol. If you want to update, you have to flash the stock recovery (there are stock recovery flashable zips on the Download Center) then install the update, then get TWRP again. Or you can install a custom ROM (I recommend one based on stock MiFavor 5.0, I think that the best one is ADM Team V3 (the one that's not based on B13), this way you can simply download, flash in TWRP, and you'll be done

I installed the rom that you suggested to me, I find it very good, but this phone has very poor support (MiFavor).

Very poor support? It's going to get Android O, and it's got at least 1 update per month (officially). It's unclear whether that ROM you installed will be updated since it's based on an older version, but the latest (B13) breaks a bunch of stuff like Google Play Games, Maps, the GPS works awfully...

No no ... do not get me wrong.
My reference is to rom, MiFlavor is really bad. I come from 3 Xiaomi smartphones and I can assure you is another world.
The smartphone is really nice and well balanced (apart from the just enough battery) and I would replenish it a thousand times. :fingers-crossed::good:

HardBricked OP5, plz help! :(

Hi, guys.
Today, my OP5 decided to troll me. I was using normally him, when suddenly it started to lags pretty bad. I restarted and he continued to lags and freeze. I made a wipe cache via stock recovery (i didnt made any change at all in it, no unlocked bootloader, no root). That's when my nightmare begins. It begins to bootloop. Sometimes i was able to start the boot animation, but then it just restarts to the beginning. I tried a lot of tips, wiping cache, system, etc. Then, i left it charging. When i tried to turn on again, it worked like nothing ever happened to him. I made a backup of my personal data fast, scared to him suddenly restart again. After that, i decided to made a Factory Reset, clean up everything. When i did it, he started the lag and freezes again. I was at lost. That's was when i decided to use the official unbrick tool, to make the cleanest OP5 ever possible. I grabbed the archives from this link and followed this tutorial. When i was executing the programa, in the userdate.img, he showed a error. When i saw it, i just stopped and closed the program. Now, my OP5 is hardbricked. The only sign of life that i get from him is when i connect him at the PC. I can identify it as qualcoom 9008, but when i try to run the program, he just fail and show me error 258.
Plz, i need some orientations. I have been read things for about 10 hours and didnt found a solution. I live abroad for any oneplus tech center, and i believe, for the other posts that i read, that online tech support wouldn't help me a lot. I really don't like to make this kind of post but i am kind of desesperate. I dont have money to afford another phone
Again, sry to disturb you all. Sry if i broke some rule of the forum too. And sry for my bad english, i hope that i was able to communicate right.
EDIT: I just tried in another computer. Same error appears. :'(

Hummm why follow a Unbrick Topic with tools for ...3T ?
Maybe you have a encryption problem, all your Tools/Topic are so old for the actual versions (Oreo 8.X OOS / 8.1 OOS)
I advise to you (in the first time), to flash this TWRP (using fastboot, very simple) just follow this guide : here
If you can flash TWRP, your phone is not bricked, you will boot in TWRP:
- Format Data > tape "yes" > Reboot in TWRP
- Copy/Past xXx 10.0 ROM to test, install and xXx Rom will fix/install for you the best OOS Custom ROM for your OP5 with a great Aroma Installer.
If TWRP with this rom work perfectly, you wil able to restore a official stock OOS for sure, just flash original/stock recovery (fastboot), wipe all data/partitions, install your OOS rom and it's fine

I think @cidsantiago says they bootloader isn't unlocked.
He needs to know that unlock the bootloader implies lost all /sdcard data and also installed apps and settings) before start the TWRP install process...

I used the tools for 5. Just the procedure that i get from this topic. :T I am gonna try the method that you gave me now brb.
EDIT: Just tried this. My cellphone cant be recognized in fastboot devices. As a said, i am not getting any response for him, just when i plug it in the PC. So i wasn't able to unlock bootload or anything like that. I tried just to plug it and see if fastboot was able to identifying it, but it wasn't.

Wipe your device data from the stock recovery.
You loss the settings and downloaded apps but not requires to unlock the bootloader.

I can't access recovery anymore, as i said. The only sign of life that i get is when i connect it in the PC.

I guess i have to do something to restore the basics partitions of my cellphone. Like recovery, boot, etc. But i just have the official tool to do that. There is another way? Like transfering directly by the COM port?

I had the same exact problem with my old One plus One. Spent like 4 days trying to unbrick it. That msm tool did the fix for me. Also, in that link to the guide you provided, doesn't it flash the Chinese version of the OS? If that's the case, I don't think it was a good idea to do so lol

In one of the links, it had the OOS and the HOS. I tried to use the msm tool in one of them, but it didnt worked I'm gonna try the archives in this link that you gave me. It may work brb with updates.

Don't worry though, it happens to plenty of people. It happened to me as well, and everyone eventually fixes it. It is unlikely that it is a hardware problem, so just following the correct steps should get it working. Keep trying stuff out, it's very good that your computer recognizes it as a qualcomm port, as far as I know that's all you need to flash the necessary things in order for it to boot.

I am getting the same error 258 in this post. :T I posted there to see if the OP can help me. But thx for your help @Mash1ro

But don't use the same files and all that stuff, since that's for the 3T. Try to pick out the things that might help but use the files for the OnePlus 5 only

After try the unbrick procedure in 3 different PCs, using about 10 different USB ports, i still getting the same error in the same step. When downloading cache.img, he stuck in about mid bar, and shows me the warning: SendProgramCommand Failed, Error: 258". Besides that, he turns on the green led and stop being recognize by the PC. Then i have to hold power and turn off the green led. :T Maybe i can use a linux to access the partitions?

yeah... But it is kind of weird. He was running smoothly, until suddenly started lag and freeze. He didn't fall or any of that... I think is just a defective phone. Doesn't find another explanation to that.

I think your best option is to RMA the device through OnePlus. Since you haven't rooted it or anything, they should repair it for you.

Help with questions about updating via OTA Please

Thank you in advance to those who respond
will not long ago I want to root my smart phone is a Huawei P10 Lite released model WAS-LX3 with EMUI and Android version 8.0.0
When trying to root, I opened the bootloader without problem, and install a version of TWRP that apparently was for the P10 lite but when it had the version of android Nougat, in my country was just unlocked Oreo, I do not know if there was the problem but when wanting to install supersu or magiskV I got an error and in the end it was not possible
when I stop trying after a while I keep getting updates, but I have not installed them for fear they will not, find out if they try to root the phone, attached image of the update
by the way now every time I restart the mobile I get a black screen, image also below, with a link to try to enter but said that the page was not available
finally my question is
It will cause some problem if I install the updates, I want to do it, but I am afraid that I will wrap my cell phone or leave it unusable, I really do not know if it is serious or not, but I prefer to avoid problems if they can arise, The update is the WAS-LX3 8.0.0.364 (C605) says that they are google security patches.
my current version is WAS-LX3 8.0.0.360 (C605)

The black screen say something like "Your Phone is unlocked"?
If is that, you don't need to worry, is because you unlock the bootloader.

Sorry, but it's a little hard to understand you.
Anyway when you have a custom Recovery installed then you can't install OTA updates, but if you have a stock recovery then they should work without problems even when your bootloader is unlocked. And that screen appears when you have unlocked your bootloader as Ret-Zero said already.
Also your images don't work. Use the preview post option to see if they work or not before posting. I have personally used Imgur for inserting images and have never had a problem with it.

RE: about suggestion and correction
Thank you for helping me, and I'm sorry if it was for the grammar, I'm Spanish speaking so I use a translator, and if it was because I did not understand ... I'm sorry hehe
I just updated, thanks for the suggestion of imgur
that is the screen that appears when starting
does not have the factory recovery installed a modified TWRP, and that's the update that I get
I knew that technically, via OTA, they should not come to me because they opened the bootloader, but maybe I'm wrong

RE: Ret-Zero

Yes that is the screen that you get when your bootloader is unlocked. When you press the power button it will boot you into android and when you press volume up then it should boot you into the stock eRecovery no matter what, even when you have a custom recovery installed. To boot into the custom recovery reboot the phone while holding volume up.
I don't think that unlocking the bootloader will prevent you from getting OTA updates, it will just give you the ability to flash custom images whether it be custom recovery, kernel or an entire OS.
Also your images are so big that they don't fit onto my laptop screen. When you choose an image in Imgur, in the same window that has all the different links, it also has options for changing the size of the image.

Yes that is the screen that you get when your bootloader is unlocked. When you press the power button it will boot you into android and when you press volume up then it should boot you into the stock eRecovery no matter what, even when you have a custom recovery installed.

Thank you, good if I give you volume up if you start with the stock.
that was my doubt, is that I wanted to avoid any inconvenience if a bad installation arose because I was touching the cell haha
and with imgur, I will learn later hahaha thank you very much

help, I think the update has gone wrong or not
as no longer supposedly there were no problems of errors, I gave him to install the update
and I reboot the cell phone, normal, always does it when installing updates
but I started the custom TWRP, now that I give it a reboot and I want to reboot the system or just turn off the disositive
A message appears in blue saying: "No OS Installed! Are you sure you wish to power off?"
if I reboot the system, it puts me back into the TWRP
and if I turn off the phone and then turn it on normally
puts me in the system
what happened??
it could not be that I deleted the OS ... if it was just an update, and if it was, how to install the stock again

You had a custom recovery installed while performing the update so it couldn't install it. To unbrick you phone use HuRUpdaterhttps://www.google.ee/amp/s/forum.xda-developers.com/honor-9/development/tool-flash-official-firmware-recovery-t3769279/amp/. It may be a little difficult to set up especially since you use a translator.
I'll give you clearer instructions when I have more. time

Ok, i'll give you step by step instructions. Hopefully your translator doesn't ruin the translation. Also I'm assuming your using Windows. When you are using linux then I'll probably have to give you the firmware files myself since Firmware Finder isn't for Linux.
1. Install Huawei Firmware Finder for Windows and open it.
2. Click on the tab that says "Common Base" and search for Was-LX3C605
3. Click filelist on the Was-LX3C605B364 firmware MAKE SURE THAT THE TYPE IS FULLOTA-MF
4. You should see 3 links. Copy them to your browser and download those 3 files. Their combined size is about 2.5 GB.
5. Put the 3 zip files that you downloaded into an empty folder.
6. Rename
"update_full_WAS-L23_hw_la.zip" to "update_all_hw.zip"
"update_data_full_public.zip" to "update_data_public.zip"
Don't rename "update.zip"
7. Download "HuRUpdater_0.4.zip" and put it also into the folder that you crated.
8. Boot to TWRP and move the folder into your phone's SD-Card.
9. Then flash only "HuRUpdater_0.4.zip". After flashing you'll have to press volume down otherwise it will abort the script.
Then you will need to wait a little. It will also show 3 unknown command errors written in red text. Ignore those because they don't mean anything.
When the installation failed then there is probably a problem with you Custom Recovery. When it worked then you should be able to boot into Android and also have the latest firmware.:fingers-crossed:

Thank you very much, yes, what I do is first translated and read it, and then see it in English hahaha, I can read English, what costs me too much is ecrbirilo
I have a question, I have seen how to install the custom ROMS that you are in XDA, it is very easy and I only need the TWRP
but, is there a problem if I install one of those? because it would take advantage and put one that already has root available

I would get the stock rom working first and have a way to always go back to stock on my sd-card in case something goes wrong or you just wish to go back to stock. Otherwise installing custom roms is easy as long as you follow the instructions, I have seen many times that newer members say that their phones are bricked because they wiped every single partition or something like that while trying to install a custom rom. Usually you only have to wipe data, system, cache and dalvik cache.
There's no point to installing pre-rooted roms if these even exist on huawei devices. When you wan't to root just install the latest version of magisk and you are good to go.
Also your device is C605 and not C432(European version). I am almost certain that you don't have to rebrand to C432 when installing custom roms especially treble roms but I am not entirely sure
Also you can find lots of treble roms that work for our devices in the p8 lite (2017) development forum

friend did not work, gave error, right now attached images
I think it's because of the message that says, Inf no recorey.img
Now I will try to install one called CypheroOS
and if it does not work I will try with the method of this video;

That video wouldn't work because it's for EMUI 5 only.
Try to boot to TWRP then select mount and make sure that cache, cust, data, system, vendor are mounted(have checkmarks next to them.
When it still doesn't work then boot to fastboot and check if phone and frp are unlocked when they are install this TWRP(use the 0.2 test version) then try again
Edit: I would also like to know what recovery are you using. Can you give me the link please

A summary of what happened:
I turned off the cell because I needed the SD, and when I started it again
Instead of starting with TWRP, start with the stock recovery
And well there you only get 3 options, which is an Android start, turn off and I do not remember the last
I gave it to start system
And I start the phone all normal
Honestly I do not know what happened hahaha but I already have a cell phone
Now if I still have the custom recovery or the bootloader open I do not know it hahaha at the moment I do not want to keep touching more things
And about the version I had, I do not remember, at that time I think there was not for Android oreo, or for the p10 lite
I think I installed one of an honor 9
Is that in the official listings on the TWRP page did not appear p10 lite
Then lower the honor
I do not know if there is already TWRP that works well
I remember that I could not install supersu nor magisk before
And about the data, cache, no, those were demarcated.
I do not know why, nor did I know what it was for

I have no idea why your phone booted suddenly. The reason your installation failed is because the TWRP that you were using wasn't able to mount the required partions for some reason, the same probably happend when you were trying to install magisk.
Also yes that TWRP is for the honor 9 lite. But the honor 9 lite, p8 lite(2017), p10 lite, mate 10 lite just to name a few are all hi6250 devices so their recoveries, kernels and roms should work for all hi6250 devices. The good thing about this TWRP is that it works both in stock and custom roms but it has some minor bug.
Or you can also use this TWRP. This works perfectly for stock roms, but when you use custom roms then it doesn't even boot, it just hangs on the TWRP logo. One time It didn't even boot when I were on a stock rom but had wiped system, dalvik, data and internal storage and frp was also locked itself for some reason so I bricked my phone and payed 20€ for dc-phoenix to fix it. Back then I had no idea what I was doing anyway. You will also have to remove your screenlock password before using this TWRP because it checks for it when you boot into it, but even when you type the right password it still doesn't work and then it fails to unmount data.
I've used them both and they work really well, also I have no idea what I am writing about since I'm very tired. It's 00.40 AM for me.

do not worry, it's serious thank you for all your help, I still have a lot to learn
This is a last request, answer when you can
I would like you to give me a link or the post where the best TWRP is for the p10 lite, the one that works with both stock and personalized rooms, now I want to see if I can change rooms
and on the partitions, I remember that in a twrp area I said mount, and the partitions where I got an error, they were disassembled, they were not marked
It was not me, I guess that was the case since I installed the twrp,
That and how you installed the twrp, maybe that's why the one I have did not do things well, I installed the one I tell you of honor, with Huawei MultiTool, from the same channel of the video that I was going to follow
install the honor because it was the only one that worked, all others gave me error, I do not know if it was because the tool because in other forums I read that when it was updated to support EMUI 8, I made many errors when installing twrp, so it was with me

Since you already lost your data, try to flash the ROM again. I don't remember if you can transfer/flash the stock ROM without an unlocked bootloader (I suppose it is locked), if you can at least dirty install it as an update it may work too (google it). Unfortunately, providing more information over unlocking the phone is inappropriate.

Since your bootloader is locked, your options are limited.
To expand a little what i mentioned, your best try it may be to try and update the current from from the stock recovery. That may fix a potential corrupted partition. To do so, you can follow the steps of method 2 in this article. However, I am not aware if you can transfer the update.zip in the phone... I suppose that the stock recovery doesn't mount the phone to the PC. Thus, you probably need to try and transfer if through fastboot but that may not be possible too (could check if adb push works or if you can boot a twrp recovery, not flash just boot, but you probably wont be able)...
If you can't do the above steps, you are in a half-brick mode right now with a locked bootloader. Generally, there is no official way to get around this.
