Hi,
Today I just installed a custom ROM for my Zuk Z2 PRO. This tutorial is how I did it.
I get many ressources from this forum and I thank orignal authors.
Big thanks to meister for his guide : https://forum.xda-developers.com/zuk-z2-pro/how-to/zuk-z2-pro-guide-to-everything-ota-t3562099
And big thanks to m_atze for his guide : https://forum.xda-developers.com/zuk-z2-pro/how-to/howto-flash-stock-rom-t3435109
More info on this ROM : https://forum.xda-developers.com/zuk-z2-pro/development/rom-share-lr-team-zuk-z2row-z2-pro-t3567710
Backup your data before processing the flash, in order to avoid loss of data!
Flashing / rooting and install custom ROM could brick your device ! You're the only responsible on what you're doing. This guide is how I did it and I'm not responsible if you're messing up your device
Unlock bootloader (step 3) will void Lenovo warranty
Antutu Score : 143050
Summary :
Step 1 : Prepare environment
Step 2 : Install ZUI 2.5.x (recommended before installing Nougat custom ROM)
Step 3 : Unlock bootloader (to be able to boot on TWRP)
Step 4 : Boot on TWRP to root the phone
Step 5 : Make a Nandroid backup
Step 6 : Install TWRP
Step 7 : Install a custom ROM with TWRP
Step 8 : Install Gapps (google apps)
Step 1 : Prepare environment
Create a directory where you're gona extract download files (avoid space in the directory path).
Download : adb and fastboot from google
Extract it on your previous created directory.
Download usb drivers and install it
Enable developer mode in your Z2 PRO (link if your don't know how to do it)
Connect your phone on your computer
On the directory C:/yourDirectoryPath/platform-tools maintains shift + rigth click and "Open command window here"
Type adb devices
If your see a line below "List of devices attached" your adb is OK
Note the number somewhere, it's your device serial number.
On the phone type *#06# and note somewhere IMEI numbers in case something went wrong during flashing
Step 2 : Install ZUI 2.5.x (recommended before installing Nougat custom ROM)
For this part I use the m_atze tutorial that you can find here. Check it for me detailed steps.
If you are on windows 8, 8.1 or 10, you have to disable driver verification (some people didn't disable driver verification and it works as well)
For windows 10 with anniversary update : you just have to run a cmd as admin and enter bcdedit -set TESTSIGNING ON then reboot your computer (your windows will be in test mode)
For other cases check this link
Then
Download QPST flashtool
Install QPST flashtool and reboot your computer
Download and extract ZUI ROM 2.5.x (you maybe need to rename the directory where the ROM is because it could be too big)
Launch QFIL application as administrator
Go to Configuration -> FireHostConfiguration. 1-change device type to UFS. 2-check reset after download checkbox
Click on "Load content" and browse the contents.xml from the ZUI ROM 2.5.x extracted files
On the adb console you opened earlier, enter adb reboot edl
The QFIL page should look like this
Click on "Download content" to flash your phone
The final screen should like this
If any problem, there is an FAQ
Your phone is gonna reboot, congratulation, you're flashed your phone with ZUI 2.5.x ROM.
Once the phone boots up it will be in Chinese again. To get your phone back in English :
On the welcome screen tap the bottom of the screen below the highlighted blue text to skip the ZUK login.
To change the language back to English go to Settings.
In the third section choose the last entry. "Advanced Settings" (the gears symbol).
Choose the 2nd menu item.
Choose the first menu item and select English.
Now check update and install it if needed trough this app. If the check is green, it's ok.
Re-enable developer mode and debugging
Step 3 : Unlock bootloader (to be able to boot on TWRP)
This step is almost a copy past of section 2 of meister guide
This step gonna void your Lenovo warranty and wipe your data
Step 3.1 : Get the unlock bootloader from Lenovo
In order to unlock the bootloader you will need to got the zuk website, where you need to register first before you can request to unlock the bootloader.
So go here : https://passport.zuk.com/wauthen3/wauth/jsp/register.jsp (use google translate)
Select Email Registration (upper right corner) and fill in the required data
You will receive an Email with a confirmation link.
Now that you are registered, log in and than go to http://developer.zuk.com/bootloader (use google translate)
Click on Carry On.
On the next page select your phone type Z2 Pro.
Enter your serial number (8 digits) (you can find it on Settings -> About -> Status. If your serial is not 8 digit, add 0 to the end to make a 8 digit number)
Enter an email address where to send the unlock image. It seems that the email address here has to follow some rules. ([email protected] or @Web.net seems to work. A domain name with a hyphen (-) seems to cause problems, i use a @hotmail.com mail adresse and it worked)
Check the 2 check boxes and click SUBMIT
If successful you get a message that the image has been sent to your email address. No message means something went wrong. Likely the email address was not approved.
Save the email attachment from ZUK you requested earlier (named unlock_bootloader.img) into C:/yourDirectoryPath/platform-tools/ (next to adb.exe)
Step 3.2 : Unlock bootloader
On adb console enter adb devices to check if your device is still connected
Next enter adb reboot bootloader and your phone gonna reboot in bootloader mode
Next enterfastboot -i 0x2b4c flash unlock unlock_bootloader.img (if you got error "target did not report max-download-size" change from usb 3.0 to usb 2.0 port and / or try to turn on "enable_usb_2.0" via
Developer Options)
You should see
Code:
target reported max download size of 1610612736 bytes
sending 'unlock' (0 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.031s]
writing 'unlock'...
OKAY [ 0.063s]
finished. total time: 0.094s
Then enter fastboot -i 0x2b4c oem unlock-go
You should see
Code:
...
OKAY [ 0.031s]
finished. total time: 0.031s
You phone is gonna reboot (or reboot it manually)
Change the phone language to english and re enable debugging.
Step 4 : Boot on TWRP to root the phone
Download TWRP 3.1 for Zuk Z2 PRO here and extrat TWRP..... .img next to adb.exe in platform-tools folder
Download SuperSu here
Copy paste SuperSu zip file in your phone internal storage
In adb cmd enter adb reboot bootloader
Then enter fastboot -i 0x2b4c boot TWRP3.1.0.0_ZUK_Z2_pro.img to boot in TWRP image
Click on "Keep read only"
Go to install and browse to SuperSu zip.
Swipe to install
When installation is finished, reboot your phone (it may reboot many times)
Good job, your phone is now rooted !
Step 5 : Make a Nandroid backup
In adb cmd enter adb reboot bootloader
Then enter fastboot -i 0x2b4c boot TWRP3.1.0.0_ZUK_Z2_pro.img to boot in TWRP image
Go in backup and check all checkbox
Swipe to backup
Reboot the phone
From your computer browse your phone internal memory and copy your backup from TWRP/Backup/XXXXX to a directory in your computer
Step 6 : Install TWRP
In adb cmd enter adb reboot bootloader
Then fastboot flash recovery TWRP3.1.0.0_ZUK_Z2_pro.img to install TWRP on your phone
Then fastboot reboot
Then adb reboot bootloader
Then with volume keys select Recovery Mode and enter in Recovery Mode by pushing power key
TWRP will start
Reboot your phone
Step 7 : Install a custom ROM with TWRP
Download ROM from https://uploadfiles.io/55ffa
Copy paste ROM zip file in your phone internal storage
In adb cmd enter adb reboot bootloader
Then with volume keys select Recovery Mode and enter in Recovery Mode by pushing power key
Click Wipe and swipe to wipe. Do NOT reboot your phone.
Go back in TWRP main menu and click Install. Browse the ROM zip file
Swipe to install
Reboot your phone
When your phone reboot, it's in chinese. Click on the texte in the right bottom corner and then select your language.
During the phone configuration, do not connect wifi (in my case the phone configuration crashed when I connected to a wifi)
When you finished phone configuration reboot to get notification in your language
Step 8 : Install Gapps (google apps)
Download Gapps from https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/gapps-dynamic-gapps-t3487192
Copy the zip file in your phone
Reboot in TWRP
Install Gapps through TWRP
Reboot your phone
At this point my Google Play Services crashed each reboot. So needed to
Reboot in TWRP
Wipe cache
Now it works !
You can install other ROM with this method but I only tested with this one.
Enjoy
First of all, thank you for your help.
I followed this tutorial from start to finish without encountering any unexpected events. It is rare to say so!
Small points:
Step 1:
*- Think of connecting the phone before the command "adb devices", it's stupid but I had not done it!
Step 2:
*- I did not need to change my driver settings on Windows 10.
*- I had to run the QFIL application as an administrator.
*- I had to rename the directory where the ROM was because the name was too big.
Step 3.1:
*- I have a serial number on 7 characters, you must add "0" at the end to make 8 characters.
*- My Gmail address worked smoothly.
Step 4:
*- The SuperSU link did not work, I took this one: http://downloadmirror.co/Utz/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.79-20161211114519.zip
*- Some reboot at home also, it seems to be normal.
Step 7:
*- I took the ROM "Resurrection Remix", no problem with another ROM.
Step 8:
*- I also had a crash of Google apps, I also did a wipe and it works now. It looks normal too.
Thank you again for your help!
Glade I could help !
Thanks for your feedback, I'm gonna update the tutorial
Hi,
great tutorial, thank you!
Step 6 : Install TWRP - I'm stuck though, as my PC still does not recognize device on fastboot without -i 0x2b4c...
so should I use instead of
Then fastboot flash recovery TWRP3.1.0.0_ZUK_Z2_pro.img to install TWRP on your phone
Then fastboot reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
the -i option ?
Then fastboot -i 0x2b4c flash recovery TWRP3.1.0.0_ZUK_Z2_pro.img to install TWRP on your phone
Then fastboot -i 0x2b4c reboot

I'm currently on ZUI 2.5.x. Can I go straight to official MK60.1 using this guide?
Or should I downgrade to ZUI 2.3.x first

I don't know sorry :/
Maybe downgrade to 2.3.x is more secured...
For my information, why do you want to install the MK60.1 ?

So far it's the only stable official release from Mokee.
Mk60.1 have exactly the same bugs like Mk71.1. so no need to use mk60.1. mk71.1 is pretty stable btw.
So far quite happy running Mokee. Is there an easy way to root as well?

Mokee was quite good.
Yesterday I installed this ROM : https://forum.xda-developers.com/zu...tom-rom-zuk-z2pro-resurrection-remix-t3579113
I prefer this ROM because you can custom it in many ways.
Since yesterday it's stable.

You can go straight to the latest RR rom without downgrade, so I guess you can do this with MK60 also. But why do you want that...?

Hi,
I'm all new to rooting and I got a major issue.
Here's the story.
Wanting that substratum themes, I looked up for rooting my devices
I followed this guide to unlock the bootloader, and all was fine.
Next, I followed this one for rooting, but at the "installing nexus drivers" step, my PC wasn't showing off any driver setup or something related to a driver.
I pressed Enter, despite the fact that I didn't know if I had nexus drivers properly installed, and my phone didn't want to boot up. Stuck on the boot animation, for more than 20 hours.
Next day, I came back and found this mega thread about unbricking. I followed it, and now I'm in a boot loop: my phone reboot 1-2 secs after showing the home screen, but I can still enter in fast boot mode. My phone is still unlocked and when I enter Huawei's eRecovery (by long-pressing up volume button) to try to "Download new version and recovery" it connects to my Wi-Fi, then fails.
Thanks for your patience,
Mx3_
Do I understand correctly? Do you wont root your phone ?
1 st. With method which presented, you can only root your device if you have Android 5 or lower, if you have android 6 Marshalow - you must use " Systemless ROOT"
2nd. You must upload new ROM on your device ( i have special tool for do this "srktoolHuawei" - this is a special tool for flashing every new rom on a huawei device )
3.rd." HuaweiUpdateExtractor" - this is a tool for extract new ROM ( roms for huawei, you can find in huawei webside ) - download rom for your device, extract by this tool, copy and paste inside folder of "srktoolHuawei"
Next...
Plug you device to PC by usb, go to recovery mode and if you have unblocked bootloader, should be writen:" Phone is unlocked" - > Open "srktoolHuawei", go to Command Prop and then:
- IMPORTANT !!! - you must upload files: SYSTEM, RECOVERY, CUST, BOOT - you can do this using that commands:
1. fastboot flash system system.img
2.fastboot flash boot boot.img
3.fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
4.fastboot flash cust cust.img
Reboot and system should starts correctly...
---------- Post added at 08:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:39 PM ----------
If you wont to root your device with SYSTEMLESSROOT method, you should do like that:
1. If you upload recovery by "srktoolHuawei" - > download TWRP recovery and upload into your device ( copy and paste TWRP img. file into this tool folder insted of traditional android recovery file, next change name from TWRP, to just recovery.img and upload using command: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img )
2. Now - if you press volume + - and power together, you should have TWRP Recovery insted of Huawei Recovery, thats good...
3. Next...BETA-SuperSU-v2.62-3 - upload this version of supersu into your SD card...
4. Next - go to TWRP mod, next to advanced, next to Terminal Command and write command like this:
echo SYSTEMLESS=true>>/data/.supersu
Confirm this command and back to install ( this command means that you will install SuperSU and it will make systemless root for you )
When if you have install, then select supersu which you downloaded before and now simply flash it by TWRP, next reboot and you should installed supersu and rooted device...
I successfully rooted, thanks ! but now i installed a substratum theme (pixel ui), uninstalled some huawei apps and rebooted to apply effects, and i'm stuck again in a bootloop ! tried wipe cache with TWRP, but didn't work :/

Please tell me you made a back up in TWRP if you did just use the RESTORE option in TWRP if not you will have to go through the above again to get back to stock but missing out flashing the recovery partition as yours is working.
When your phone boots make a back up in TWRP before trying out anything so its easy to recover

thank you, very much. i had rooted my p8 lite with succesed. But the application always starts automatically, even if it is blocked with rom toolbox lite.
Did not find any post mentioning rooting for 5C on EMUI. If there are any, let me know and I will take down this thread.
Note-
Applicable for Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 10
Similar steps are applicable for EMUI 4.X as well but TWRP file will change.
Saw many user on Honor 5C FB page and on XDA struggling to get root working on EMUI 5. most of the cases I saw, were for EMUI 5.X. I followed the steps mentioned or as applicable for any devices and I did not face any issue so though of compiling this guide for new users who may have faced issue or not able to root the phone. (may be mainly because of correct and working TWRP issue) . I will just simplify the steps so that any new users can do this without any problem and without any prior experience to rooting, it may be long but will be the simple enough for all the users.
Prerequisites-
Enable the developer option in settings-
Go to Settings--> About Phone-->Tab build number 7 times to enable this setting.
Go back in setting page, just above system update, you will see a new menu as -Developer Options
Scroll for the debugging section and enable the USB Debugging
You will be prompted for the confirmation with RSA key, just accept it.
Enable OEM Unlock in Developer Options (just above the USB debugging option) – Most probably this option will not be there on EMUI 5.0 (only few have seen on EMUI but it was there on EMUI 4.1 for all but rarely on EMUI 5.0 or may be because I have used dload most of the time which grayed out this)
Installation of required Drivers.
Connect your phone to PC and install Hi Suite on PC and it will additionally install all the necessary drivers to PC and HiSUite on Mobile.
Download and Install ADB from Link
Accept all the prompts and install ADB drive system wise.
Once installation is completed, if default options are chosen, it will be under C:\adb
Downloading the necessary files.
Download TWRP from Link Thanks to @OldDroid for his Original Thread . Rest of the contributor and credit in original thread by OldDroid.
Move the downloaded file under C:\adb or wherever you have installed the ADB.
Download the SuperSU file from this Link and put it in SD card or keep handy on PC so that you can copy to internal memory later.
Get the unlock as mentioned in this thread
Actual Procedure
Unlocking the bootloader-
Backup all your data as unlocking the bootloader will reset the device and all your data will be erased.
On windows machine, go to folder C:\adb or wherever you installed the adb drivers.
Press shift+right click together and select Open command prompt here
Run - adb reboot bootloader (this command may prompt for acceptance of RSA key if not already accepted)
This will boot the phone into bootloader mode.
Run - fastboot oem unlock <16 digit unlock code- Put your actual code you obtained from Huawei site > (This step will unlock the bootloader and will erase all your data)
Phone will restart automatically.
Installing TWRP
Once on the system, open the PowerShell or command prompt again in ADB folder (can use the previous instance as well)
Run - adb reboot bootloader
Once in bootloader, Run - fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.1.1-0-venus.img (This will install the TWRP recovery for EMUI 5.0 on your phone)
Once done with the flashing the TWRP, Run - fastboot reboot
Rooting
Once booted to system, open the PowerShell or command prompt in ADB folder (can use the previous instance as well)
Run - adb reboot recovery
And your phone will boot into the TWRP recovery.
Copy the SuperU file downloaded to SD card or Internal memory.
Install the SuperSU zip.
Reboot and enjoy.
Happy Flashing.

Hello,
I had the NEM-L51 from my mother running EMUI 4.0x, and decided to upgrade it to the latest version.
It was unlocked, with TWRP as recovery, and rooted.
I did flash back the stock recovery (from HuaweiUpdateExtractor/Update.app), rebooted the device, and applied the OTA (B350 first, then latest B357).
Until then everything is fine, but when I try to flash the TWRP recovery, it doesn't work :

Neither the recommended Venus one, or the current / previous nemo one can be flashed.
Phone and FRP status in fastboot mode both shows Unlocked / Unlock, and the OEM Unlock option in EMUI Developper Settings is also enabled (I toggled it just to be sure).
I'm not sure what's wrong.
Would the update mess with the OEM unlock (by relocking and showing a wrong status) ?
I'd rather not try fastboot OEM unlock with the code (still have it somewhere) and lose data.
Thanks for any advice

So it's not a recovery issue.
How useful is the HiSuite backup ?
If I make a backup with it, will it be able to restore most user app's and system's data ?
I'd rather not re set everything up, and I'm afraid I'll have to retry to OEM unlock the device (so force wipe), even if it says it's unlocked (which it should have remained in the first place)

Hisuite can be used for back.. reliable one but not same as titanium backup. Backup WhatsApp on local and g drive. Zip the WhatsApp folder in internal memory and then copy to pc.
Rest other apps, via hisuite (can backup WhatsApp as well here).

You file should be in path D:\Android\platform-tools\ and not D:\Android\HuaweiUpdateExtractor_0.9.9.5\
I hope adb is installed under D:\Android\platform-tools\, if not, it will be udner C drive as C:\adb\
copy the recovery file whereever the adb is installed and then run the command
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.1.1-0-venus.img (replace name with your actual file name)
Ok, so in fact fastboot OEM unlock status was not accurate, and something I didn't notice was the absence of dm-verity warning when booting (showing when it's actually unlocked)

Now I have to do to install twrp on my device. Please help me.
Hello, I have an NMO_L31 (honor 5c - huawei gr5 mini) device and I have experienced a Failed (remote: image verification error) error when installing TWRP while my phone was unlocked before. have searched from a lot of technology pages to find remedies but all failed. But my God, Jehovah listened to my plea and brought me to @shashank123, I contacted him through XDA and I got him a phone number to make friends on the telegram, he helped me out I and I have overcome the above error. I would like to explain how to overcome the error that I tried. First, I went back to emui 4.1.2 (you can see the instructions then allow OEM unlock, then I update the OTA to emui 5, allow usb debugging when the update is complete. Shift + Right click on CMD (or powershell) and enter "adb devices" to see the connected device, then enter "adb reboot bootloader" then enter "fastboot oem get-bootinfo" To check if the bootloader has been unlocked, then enter the command "fastboot oem unlock (code)" to unlock if the relock bootloader, then if the bootloader has been unlocked then the purpose of the command to factory reset. If that is the case, then go to the phone and see if factory reset is complete. Then develop and reconnect to adb, check the device connected to the "adb devices" command then go to the "adb reboot bootloader" command to get to the fastboot and then use the command "fastboot flash recovery recovery_name.img" (for example : Twrp) "Finally, if the word OKEY appears, you are successful. If you can not solve this problem, please send a message to @shashank123 in XDA and ask for his phone number to make friend through telegram and regular help message because he does not often use XDA. Thank you very much Shashank for helping me. Thanks be to my god JESU CHRIST and JEHOVAH.

No problem at all mate. Helping through telegram was quick in real time rather multiple post or message and then waiting for response from each other. Due to time crunch, I opted to quick help rather keep you waiting all day long
Good you got your phone as per your requirement and able to do what you wanted. Thanks and Enjoy.
You can edit your comment to say "@shashank1320" (use without double quotes) rather Shashank123 as users may send message or qoute him and get no response as that user may or may not exist :silly:

Boot to bootloader again and see the bootloader state if locked or unlocked. Try unlocking it again.
Hello everyone,
I have recently unlocked the bootloader on my Nokia 6.1 plus, and rooted it. I then went ahead and installed TWRP ( App install method - found in the twrp website ). However after I rebooted my phone has been stuck on the TWRP splash screen , I Tried going to download mode , and that just got me back to the twrp splash screen. I turned off the phone and powered it on again , same result . Whatever I do it just keeps going back to the TWRP splash screen .. What is even worse is that my device can not be recognized by my pc while stuck on the splash screen , thus I can not use ADB or Fastboot ...
I am feeling really hopeless and stuck , Help would be much appreciated!! Thanks
Now, dissemble the device and enter edl mode

You shouldn't have installed TWRP on a A/B device let alone install it via the app. It's okay, We're here to help.
If you have OSTLA in your PC, Just open it up and load all files and select to flash the stock ROM. Select Normal Download/Erase User Data options and if the option to Chech AP status is enabled, Disable it. Select on start or the option to flash stock ROM.
Power off your phone completely. If you can't, Then press the volume+ button and power button. Once the screen goes off, Immediately connect phone to PC.
Phone should now reboot into download mode and stock rom should start flashing. Then it's just a matter of waiting for it to flash and reboot.

I had a problem in that my device would never be recognized by my pc even when i finally manage to put in download mode, However after many days trying I was finally able to do it , and to use OSTL.... so thank you!!
I am wondering now how I will do the thing i wanted from the start which is to flash a kernel if i shouldn't use twrp?

So to my understanding what you want to achieve is flash a custom kernel on stock rom. And after you messed up your stock recovery by installing twrp, if you have flashed stock rom using ostla then follow these steps.
First without tampering anything finish an ongoing/pending ota/sp update cause after you install custom kernel you phone won't be able to install OTAs. The last sp is of june so install that.
Now coming to installing the kernel-
*Place your twrp and kernel zip file into your adb folder*
1. Setup usb debugging and connect your device normally to your pc, check if the device is communicating with pc type in "adb devices" and allow on your phone for authorisation.
It should reply with your serial on cmd window.
2. Type in "adb reboot bootloader" that should put your device in download mode.
3. Type in "fastboot boot twrp.img" (replace twrp.img with whatever your twrp image file name is)
4. Go to advanced and select adb sideload, swipe to start.
5. Now move to your cmd window and type in "adb sideload kernel.zip" (replace kernel.zip with whatever your kernel zip file name is)
Wait for the process to finish
Now press home go to wipe>advanced wipe select dalvik cache and swipe to wipe
again press home and select reboot, select system
Now final important step
6. don't swipe, select "do not install twrp"

This might sound like a stupid question but I am a major newbie when it comes to this,
Right now i managed to compile a custom kernel and I have a boot image along with the kernel, so to get the kernel.zip do I just zip up all these files? also I read that I could simply flash the image by rebooting to my bootloader and then using " fastboot flash boot boot.img " would this work , and if so does this mean i don't need twrp...
Thanks again for the help , it is much appreciated

Right now i managed to compile a custom kernel and I have a boot image along with the kernel, so to get the kernel.zip do I just zip up all these files? also I read that I could simply flash the image by rebooting to my bootloader and then using " fastboot flash boot boot.img " would this work , and if so does this mean i don't need twrp...
Thanks again for the help , it is much appreciated

If you just want to flash your custom kernel there's no need to flash a boot.img if you've a running rom installed. You can flash the kernel.zip it via twrp or adb sideload via twrp.
Sorry for the late reply, if you have a bootloader-unlocked 6.1 Plus you should join Nokia 6.1 Plus community on telegram you'll get much faster response from the community regarding your device ?
