Thanks, but I get stuck at 3.
I go to search -> cmd and then I type adb sideload CWM-SuperSU-v0.97.zip in it. I think this is wrong but I never worked with ADB.

Works fine here
You need to install adb then cd to the adb directory, then type the command.

Why is it even in dev section?

Make sure you have adb installed on your pc

Hey guys, Just apply the .zip from external card via recovery, the .zip in OP, worked for me
Edit: Yes mate, I used that file only, you copied it from Sprint S2's JB thread? Coz I can see the screenshot is of Oct 11 firmware.

Buy mobile odin, flash the rom, then you will get root. Quite simple.
I love new rom.
But it wipe all my data system apps...

This is why adb sideload is powerful (as on sprint we were never able to access sdcard)

[Tutorial] Downloading Firmware and convert them into .FTF files

Download and make your own Firmware​
Don't misread the title. This tutorial will help you download the needed FILE_xxxxxxxx so that FlashTool can decrypt them and create a bundle to flash.​
Requirements:
Download the XperiaFirmware Downloader tool thing here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/cro...xperifirm-xperia-firmware-downloader-t2834142
Flashtool (use search for this, there are a lot of threads for it)
Patience
A brain
Steps:
First Download the needed programs and install Flashtool and its drivers. For extra explanation you can check my how to use flashtool tutorial. Download the XperiaFirmware Download tool (see link above) and unzip it.
Open it:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Select your deviceand the wanted customatisation number or operator and select the wanted firmware version:
A new window will pop up and select download and choose an location:
Let it download:
Close the window and the program...
Open flashtool and select Tools > Bundle > FILESET Decrypt:
Select the folder with the FILE's and add them to the list on the right:
Flashtool will decrypt it:
A new window pops up and you can create your bundle; select your device, enter the branding and the firmware version and select create:
Let flashtool do it's job and after a while it is done:
The .ftf file is in the same place as the FILE files.. So look up there and share the .ftf in the correct forum!
Good Luck!

Good guide..just a correction
When you create your bundler you only have to mark the .sin files, not the .ta(or something like that)

I always select everything... Works without issues

Thanks it worked.. But I would like to know why remove .ta ??
another person commented that he is not having any issue even after including those files.. Now that's bit confusing..

I read it somewhere that including ta would cause bootloop in some
devices

I've always included the. Ta parts when flashing ftf's myself never has a problem(yet). I thought it was just Ta files of a different device that bricked your phone

It's just a ROM converted from offical ftf with pre-root and recovery, so I guess there should be no problem on LET.

thank u for the working，but i still waiting for the one step root method

Okey, let's try.

Tried to update from CM12 with the procedure. /system wasn't updated at all by the installer.

If I may ask, which SuperSU and recovery ZIPs did you use for creating the PRF? I already downloaded an unrooted one and on a slow connection like mine I'd rather not redownload another one. I'm willing to go through the process myself.

not sure i understand - why do i have to flash with flashtool after....? and does this work on locked BL?

Why flash FTF (,on right side uncheck DATA if you don't want to format internal storage and check SYSTEM & BASEBAND in exclude column). What happen if flash zip and don't flash FTF?

where's the ftf?

Cus I didn't add kernel etc in the zip,it only includes system

So, do I have to download the .ftf from "this FTF"? Would it work any other .ftf or does it have to be that one?

When flashing my smartphone I get an error (S_DA_EMMC_FLASH_NOT_FOUND)

Can I copy the scatter.txt from RC5 to whichever ROM i want as long as it is for the same phone? Basically I have the RC5 but I experienced that the battery is horrible so I wanted to try a different newer OS. Somehow there is an error installing via TWRP the other roms I have in zip but flashtool works fine. These files do not have a scatter-file though.

Thank`s for the instructions
I will thank for the instruction, because I breaked my phone while trying to flash madOS 8.1.0 (update from april). Before my Jiayu S3 basic (16 GB, 2 GB) worked fine with madOS 8.1 from 2017-12-30. I surely made a big mistake, therefore the phone was dead - no reaction any more.
I found this solution to flash back the stock rom 5.1.1 with twrp. Phone is alive and works.
I think, I have done a big mistake, because all trials to flash madOS 8.1 from april ended with boot into TWRP. I tried flashing to madOS for a long time, isn`t possible any more. Maybe also my old phone has a failure.
Therefore I have to thank for Your excellent work. Thanks.

Hi!
I'm trying to flash my S3Adv. (3GB RAM, Kitkat, TWRP 2.8.4.0) with madOS_8.1.0_s3_h560_20180422.zip, but, the "Zip signature verification failed". Before, the MD5 sum is checked and matches. I also checked the file with "zip -T" on my Linux machine and it reports "OK". When the "Zip file signature verification" is turned off, TWRP reports "error executing updater binary in zip ..." What's going wrong? Anybody here who can help?
Thanks in advance
Frank
Nearby: I wiped system, dalvik, cache and data.
Solution:
- Install Flash Tool
- Flash Android 5.1.1 (RC5_S3_16GB.zip)
- Start 5.1.1 to do a basic configuration
- Boot into TWRP recovery which was included in RC5
- Install twrp_20180417.img
- Boot into TWRP recovery
- Install madOS_8.1.0_s3_h560_20180422.zip
(a full wipe is, may be, necessary, but, I don't know, when the full wipe should be done within my procedure - I did it earlier)

During testing when I flashed back to stock b164 I used unmodified Ssu beta 3 for rooting, there is one user in Ssu beta thread who has problems with latest beta on his p10. What kind of modification if I may ask?

huawei should have a cross development forum thread like sony devices, it would be easier to find relevant information, I have to flash back to stock and root with beta 3, I don't remember any problems on my side, he has problems with security(pin code, fingerprint).

Hi There.
Succesfully installed. I have issues with the Gallery.. If I open it it says insufficient storage space....
Also MiXplorer shows what looks like encrypted folders in the Internal Storage section???
Any help would be appreciated.

Did you format your data partition before you flashed this?

Pretty nice
So it seems that installing and flashing Huawei devices is quite the hassle.
Issues I currently experience on this ROM:
Cannot open Gplay not opening.
Plugging in usb cable into windows or linux doesn't get recognised.
I will update with more details later today
update:
reformatted /data /system and reinstalled, no more issues!
Rom works fine, as fine as could be expected of a rooted stock rom.

Here is a script for L09 User.
Just install Rom and Data Files from start post and then this zip file.
Its untested because my tester have only L29 devices. But it should work.

Have fun.
A very big thanks to @funiewski for a lot of testing

Have installed and all is working great. There's only 1 issue that I'm facing. The first time I change my wallpaper on the homescreen, there are many lines that will appear on the wallpaper. Anyone facing this? The lockscreen and app drawer area is fine. Anyone can advice? I would prefer my home screen wallpaper to be clean.

Yeah that was it... Figured it out myself... Realised I missed something somewhere.
So far the Rom is running great!

When I open Magisk Manager and try to install Magisk, I get an error that the zip file could not be extracted.
Any ideas?

Check the MagiskManager Folder. Is there the zip?
