[Tutorial] Root, Unlock, Recovery and flashing a Custom ROM

Just a quick step by step tutorial to get a Custom ROM working on your HTC One or if you just want to unlock and root!
This guide is especially for the new users, experienced HTC users should already be familiar with this process.
Step 1: Unlock
Go on http://www.htcdev.com and create yourself an account on HTCDEV.
Download these adb/fastboot files
Make a new folder on your C:/ drive called fastboot for example.
Extract the zip downloaded in step 2 to the new folder
Go Here http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader/ and select "All Other Supported Models" and "then begin unlock bootloader"
Yes, Tick both Boxes, Proceed
Skip up to step 8 as we have all we need for the first 7 steps
Power off your phone by holding the power button down for 10 seconds
Power your phone on by holding power and volume down
Highlight Fastboot With Volume+or- then press Power
Plug your phone into your PC and open a Command Prompt.
(windows XP - Click Start > Run > type CMD in box then press OK
(Windows 7 - Click Start > type CMD in search box then press Enter)
Change directory to your folder where we put fastboot files cd c:\fastboot
Type this into your command prompt window fastboot oem get_identifier_token
Select & copy the text as per step 9 on the HTCDev website
Paste your identifier token into the box at the bottom and submit
You Will Very Shortly Receive an email from HTCDev with a link to the second part of the instructions and your "Unlock_code.bin" attached
Download the "Unlock_code.bin" from the email and save it to the same folder that we extracted fastboot files to in step 2
Type this into your command prompt window fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
The Display Will change on your phone, press Vol + to accept and power to confirm.
Step 2: Recovery
Download the Android SDK (optional)
Download the recovery of your choice, here a few links:
- CWM
- CWM 2
- TWRP
Place the Recovery file you downloaded where the fastboot.exe is (Either in the location of your downloaded fastboot drivers or in the Android SDK directory)
Now open the cmd and navigate to the folder where the Recovery File is located or just open a cmd with shift and right click at the correct directory
Now type:
fastboot flash recovery name_of_the_recovery.img
For example:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.2.8-m7.img
Now your recovery is installed
Step 3: Root
This step is only needed if you want a stock rooted ROM, if you want a custom ROM, skip this step.
Now root your phone with SuperSU by Chainfire or SuperUser by koush
Download SuperSU from this link or SuperUser from this link
Flash it with the Recovery:
Power off your device and then hold the VOL DOWN + Power to boot into the Bootloader
Navigate with VOL and Power to Recovery
Now flash the .zip:
- install zip from sdcard
- choose zip from sdcard
- select the downloaded SuperSU/SuperUser zip file and flash it
- Reboot now
Now you are able to flash any Custom ROM.
Step 4: Custom ROM
With htcdev unlock you need to flash the boot.img after every ROM installation
Note: Most of the custom ROMs have a script which lets the boot.img flash automatically with the ROM, so probably the steps after flashing the ROM are not needed.
If you are in a bootlop though, I recommend you to perform these steps and flash the boot.img with fastboot
Download the ROM you want to flash
Open the ROM zip with an archive manager and extract the boot.img out of it and place it in your fastboot directory
Copy the ROM to your sdcard
Now boot into bootloader again (explained above) and choose recovery with your volume keys and power button
In recovery wipe data and cache aka fullwipe before flashing your ROM if you are moving to a new base (for example from CyanogenMod to a Sense ROM, don't forget to backup your data files, like apps) (Often ROM chefs leave a note in their thread if a fullwipe is needed or not, just follow their advices)
Now flash your ROM by installing zip from sdcard
If this is finished, reboot and reboot into bootloader again
Connect your phone to your PC in fasboot mode (choose in bootloader with power button)
Open a cmd in your fastboot folder with your boot.img and type these two commands:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot erase cache
Then reboot your phone and wait some minutes to see your ROM booted
Enjoy

I recommend using SuperUser by koush insted of SuperSU. I also made Super Boot to root stock ROM but I need someone with WWE HTC One...

if got the softwarw nr 1.27.206.1 with kernel [email protected]#1 - will it works with your 401 kernel?
Can you pull the system partition so we can enjoy some stuff from the One on other HTC devices?
tell me how to do and i will share
http://d-h.st/2DO
Unpack and run the runme.bat
Dumping may need a while, upload it to dropbox for example
Imho all devs should work together here instead of trying to be the first guy with a deodexed stock ROM
these are just windowsfiles - does not working on my linux, sorry

Do i understand it right i do not need to install recovery to get the system dump?
Simply go to your adb dir and type that in terminal:
adb pull /system ./system
optional:
adb kill-server
7za a -tzip system.zip system\ -r (needs the 7za file)
rmdir system /s /q

[Root] Zenfone 2 Official Android 6.0 Root + Xposed and Downgrade

**WARNING** You need to have background knowledge of adb, fastboot, twrp, sideload.. before you can go on with this thread.
1. All credits go to @shakalaca. If you like his work, please make him a small donation for encouragement.
2. This is a systemless root. Yet you need to unlook Lollipop before upgrading to Marshmallow.
3. Flashing the attached SuperSU file modifies stock boot.img. In case you receive an OTA file later, do
**REMEMBER to FLASH BACK TO STOCK Android 6.0 BOOT.IMG** to unroot before upgrading to official Android 6.0.
Root:
1. Unlock your device in Lollipop, then upgrade to Android 6.0
2. Once you are in Android 6.0, fire the following command to boot twrp. <twrp.img> is the twrp recovery file. This TWRP is recommended.
HTML:
adb reboot-bootloader
fastboot boot <twrp.img>
3. adb sideload the attached SuperSu file in twrp. /OR install the SuperSU in twrp if you saved it in device storage.
4. reboot system. You will see a warning screen saying "Your device has failed Verification". Ignored it and wait for the reboot.
5. Done
Unroot:
Just flash back stock boot.img
Xposed:
1.Flash the attached Xposed file from twrp.
2.use Material Design Xposed Installer: Download Xposed Installer here
Downgrade to Lollipop:
In case you need to downgrade to Lollipop, follow the instructions with care. Do it at your risk.
Refer to Asus Zentalk Forum and grab the required files from there.
HTML:
fastboot flash token bom-token.bin
fastboot flash ifwi ifwi_ann_a0-mofd_v1-ze551ml.bin
fastboot flash fastboot droidboot.img
fastboot flash splashscreen splashscreen_ze551ml.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Now you are back in Lollipop. You can flash back stock recovery(.184 recommended), wipe the device(cache/userdata/system) and then sideload back stock LP or MM as you wish. OR, you can flash custom recovery/boot/system.img start from here.
Good luck!
It worked!Thank you master!I bow now....

It does work, but YMMV, my phone is one of the few that works completely with the beta software. But before running fastboot cmd in adb. Use adb reboot recovery, then fastboot cmd. Phone will reboot twice after sideload of SU.

He's using whats called "tethered TWRP". It's basically running twrp on your phone from your computer instead of actually installing it (which would require unlocking).

Thank You for explaining that to me, appreciated!
To downgrade to Lollipop, is it possible to just use AsusFlashToolInstaller and flash raw firmware? Any harms by doing that?
Thank you in advance.

You need to adb sideload all LP .184 images first then use Asus FlashTool to flash RAW Firmware.

Guess your ZF2 is not unlocked in LP first, so that you can't see twrp booting. Since you are in Android 6.0 now, try to downgrade to LP, Unlock it, upgrade to 6.0 and then root.

Any expert please help
I need to know whether your partitions are okay or not. Please answer my questions below:
1. What's the model of your device? T00F/T00J?
2. Can you reboot into fastboot?
3. What was the last thing you did to it before bricking?
4. Does it flash the fastboot.img file successfully?
5. Which firmware were you using before sideload push? I mean when the device was fine, what was your firmware version?
6. Which version you were trying to push while you bricked it?

I got same problem (solved)
I have advice for you according my experience.
My device is T00F/A500CG
I assume you can enter bootloader or recovery mode, your pc installed all needed driver to do command adb sideload.
1. Download official ZenFone 5 firmware from ASUS website. Just go to Google and type keyword "download ZenFone firmware".
2. Download firmware 5.3.3.3 and 5.2.2.2 (apply same SKU according your device). because my device use WW sku, so I downloaded firmware WW_5.3.3.3 and WW_5.2.2.2.
3. Place those firmware inside adb folder in your pc.
4. Go to recovery mode on your ZenFone 5.
5. Connect your ZenFone to pc using USB cable.
6. Select menu "apply update from adb" on recovery mode.
7. Open cmd at your adb folder.
8. Check whether your device connected or not by using command "adb device". Make sure your device listed as attached.
9. Flash your firmware 5.3.3.3 using adb sideload command.
10. At recovery mode, select clear cache and user data (optional).
11. Once again, enter menu "apply update from adb" at recovery mode and flash firmware 5.2.2.2 using adb sideload command.
12. Do clear cache and user data at recovery mode. Then restart your device. Its will take time to load operating system for the first time, so be patient. Once you done, your device will be running on kit Kat.
This is other way. If you still want to use lollipop on your ZenFone 5.
Follow the step above until step 10. Once it done, restart your device (it will take time for the first time). You will be on lollipop because firmware 5.3.3.3 itself based on lollipop. And of you want to use latest update lollipop (firmware 3.24.40.87) don't do adb sideload from firmware 5.3.3.3 or it will be fail at 54% and you need to repeat step above from step 1.
If you want to proceed to firmware 3.24.40.87, do this:
1. Download ZenFone assists (I recommend this tool).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-5/development/zenfone-assist-t3401996
2. Place downloaded file in a folder and extract it.
3. Run the *.exe file. (Active internet connection needed for next step).
4. Activate "developer option" on your ZenFone, active USB debuging and then Connect your ZenFone using USB cable to your pc.
5. Click on "root" menu at ZenFone assists. ( application will download some file for first time usage).
6. When it done, click on " I'm on android" and your device will reboot and automatically enter fastboot mode.
7. When your ZenFone at fastboot mode, click on "execute" on ZenFone assists.
8. Done,reboot your device and if there is no super SU app installed, don't worry, your device has been successfully rooted. Check using root checker if you doubt that.
9. Successfully rooted, now use ZenFone assists to unlock your bootloader( use menu "unlock bootloader" at ZenFone assists). The processes will be similar
As process 5-7.
10. Install TWRP using ZenFone assists. Its also similar with process 5-7.
11. Download moded stock firmware 3.24.40.87 from here
drive.google.com/open?id=0B7Py5ad2aHwKMHRsZ1NJM0tfLTQ
(Source thread :http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-5/help/how-to-revert-to-stock-firmware-t3303654)
This firmware is completely same as official firmware from ASUS, only changed in Meta.inf file so make it able to flash through TWRP.
12. Place downloaded firmware in your SD card.
13. Reboot your device to fastboot mode and enter recovery mode.
14. Your official recovery now replaced by TWRP.
15. Just touch "install from zip" menu at TWRP and select storage where you place the firmware. Do the flashing process, be patient and wait until done.
16. When its done, using TWRP wipe your cache and reboot your device. It will take time for first boot, be patient.
To restore your device all into normal (relock bootloader and replace TWRP with original recovery). Do this:
1. Enable developer option on your device then connect it to your pc using USB cable.
2. Open zenfone assists and select menu "relock bootloader". I assume you already familiar with this process.
3. Open downloaded firmware 3.24.40.87 and extract droidboot.img, boot.img, and recovery.img from inside the zip file and place them inside adb folder.
4. Reboot your ZenFone to fastboot mode, open cmd in adb device folder.
5. Flash fastboot using command fastboot flash fastboot fastboot.img
6. Flash recovery using command fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
7. Flash kernel using command fastboot flash boot boot.img
8. Enter recovery mode then wipe cache and user data (optional).
9. Or just reboot your device.

I have advice for you according my experience.
My device is T00F/A500CG
I assume you can enter bootloader or recovery mode, your pc installed all needed driver to do command adb sideload.
1. Download official ZenFone 5 firmware from ASUS website. Just go to Google and type keyword "download ZenFone firmware".
2. Download firmware 5.3.3.3 and 5.2.2.2 (apply same SKU according your device). because my device use WW sku, so I downloaded firmware WW_5.3.3.3 and WW_5.2.2.2.
3. Place those firmware inside adb folder in your pc.
4. Go to recovery mode on your ZenFone 5.
5. Connect your ZenFone to pc using USB cable.
6. Select menu "apply update from adb" on recovery mode.
7. Open cmd at your adb folder.
8. Check whether your device connected or not by using command "adb device". Make sure your device listed as attached.
9. Flash your firmware 5.3.3.3 using adb sideload command.
10. At recovery mode, select clear cache and user data (optional).
11. Once again, enter menu "apply update from adb" at recovery mode and flash firmware 5.2.2.2 using adb sideload command.
12. Do clear cache and user data at recovery mode. Then restart your device. Its will take time to load operating system for the first time, so be patient. Once you done, your device will be running on kit Kat.
This is other way. If you still want to use lollipop on your ZenFone 5.
Follow the step above until step 10. Once it done, restart your device (it will take time for the first time). You will be on lollipop because firmware 5.3.3.3 itself based on lollipop. And of you want to use latest update lollipop (firmware 3.24.40.87) don't do adb sideload from firmware 5.3.3.3 or it will be fail at 54% and you need to repeat step above from step 1.
If you want to proceed to firmware 3.24.40.87, do this:
1. Download ZenFone assists (I recommend this tool).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-5/development/zenfone-assist-t3401996
2. Place downloaded file in a folder and extract it.
3. Run the *.exe file. (Active internet connection needed for next step).
4. Activate "developer option" on your ZenFone, active USB debuging and then Connect your ZenFone using USB cable to your pc.
5. Click on "root" menu at ZenFone assists. ( application will download some file for first time usage).
6. When it done, click on " I'm on android" and your device will reboot and automatically enter fastboot mode.
7. When your ZenFone at fastboot mode, click on "execute" on ZenFone assists.
8. Done,reboot your device and if there is no super SU app installed, don't worry, your device has been successfully rooted. Check using root checker if you doubt that.
9. Successfully rooted, now use ZenFone assists to unlock your bootloader( use menu "unlock bootloader" at ZenFone assists). The processes will be similar
As process 5-7.
10. Install TWRP using ZenFone assists. Its also similar with process 5-7.
11. Download moded stock firmware 3.24.40.87 from here
drive.google.com/open?id=0B7Py5ad2aHwKMHRsZ1NJM0tfLTQ
(Source thread :http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-5/help/how-to-revert-to-stock-firmware-t3303654)
This firmware is completely same as official firmware from ASUS, only changed in Meta.inf file so make it able to flash through TWRP.
12. Place downloaded firmware in your SD card.
13. Reboot your device to fastboot mode and enter recovery mode.
14. Your official recovery now replaced by TWRP.
15. Just touch "install from zip" menu at TWRP and select storage where you place the firmware. Do the flashing process, be patient and wait until done.
16. When its done, using TWRP wipe your cache and reboot your device. It will take time for first boot, be patient.
To restore your device all into normal (relock bootloader and replace TWRP with original recovery). Do this:
1. Enable developer option on your device then connect it to your pc using USB cable.
2. Open zenfone assists and select menu "relock bootloader". I assume you already familiar with this process.
3. Open downloaded firmware 3.24.40.87 and extract droidboot.img, boot.img, and recovery.img from inside the zip file and place them inside adb folder.
4. Reboot your ZenFone to fastboot mode, open cmd in adb device folder.
5. Flash fastboot using command fastboot flash fastboot fastboot.img
6. Flash recovery using command fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
7. Flash kernel using command fastboot flash boot boot.img
8. Enter recovery mode then wipe cache and user data (optional).
9. Or just reboot your device.
10. Done, enjoy.

Doogee X5 Max Pro Root Recovery OTA

******************Root Recovery Doogee X5 max pro*******************
Your waiting Time IS Now Finished Here is Complete Guide to Root Doogee X5 Max Pro install twrp And More,
Hit :good:
ADB & Fastboot
Before doing most things mentioned below you will need "adb" and "fastboot" installed. Two of your options are to install the Android SDK Tools or the Minimal ADB and Fastboot tool. If you are somewhat new to this I highly recommend the second one. Go here, download the latest version (1.3.1 as of this writing), and install it. When setup is complete you should have an icon for the Minimal ADB and Fastboot tool.
Note: I highly recommend you add "C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot" to your PATH variable in Windows. This way you can open a Command Prompt anywhere and use adb or fastboot.
1) Unlock Bootloader
Power on the phone and skip through all of the setup options
Go to Settings -> About device
Tap Build number five times to enable Developer options
Go to Settings -> Developer options
Enable OEM unlocking
Enable USB debugging
Plug the phone in to your PC and authorize it
Open a Command Prompt
Type adb reboot-bootloader
The phone should reboot and in a very tiny font at the bottom you should see => FASTBOOT mode
Type fastboot devices to verify that your PC sees it correctly
Type fastboot oem unlock
Press Volume Up to say Yes and wait for this to finish
Type fastboot getvar all and look for (bootloader) unlocked: yes
Type fastboot reboot
You should see your phone reboot a couple times as it erases the phone
Install twrp-
Power on the phone
You can configure your phone now or just skip through all of the setup options and do that later
Go to Settings -> About device
Tap Build number five times to enable Developer options
Go to Settings -> Developer options
Enable OEM unlocking
Enable USB debugging
Plug the phone in to your PC and authorize it
Open a Command Prompt to wherever you extracted the .img file
Type adb reboot-bootloader
The phone should reboot and in a very tiny font at the bottom you should see => FASTBOOT mode
Type fastboot devices to verify that your PC sees it correctly, rename twrp to recovery.img
type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img to flash recovery
Type fastboot reboot
Rooting-
Download BETA-SuperSU.zip and save it to the phone's internal memory or an inserted microSD card
Plug the phone in to your PC
Open a Command Prompt
Type adb reboot recovery
You should now be in twrp. Go to Install zip, find SuperSU.zip, and install it
When it finishes go to Go Back -> Reboot Phone -> No
Once the phone boots up launch SuperSU and configure it as you like
Other Solutions-
i have doogee x5 max-s (i geuss limited editon in algeria ) with mtk6735 . i do evrything and all steps but when i reboot to recovery mode i have ( no command ) in the screen .... how to fix that ? sorry for my ****ty english XD
I had the same Issue but i have found a solution!
After you have flashed the twrp recovery, dont reboot the phone! the "recovery.sh" will replace the twrp on every boot!
Just pull off the battery after flashing, disconnect usb and put the battery back in to the phone.
Now get in to the recovery by pressing volume up and power button together until the select bootmode menue appears.
select recovery with the volume up button and enter with the volume down button.
and now you should be in the twrp main menue.
i hope it works for you too!

It does not work from step 12, all the drives are correctly installed and windows recognizes the cell, the recovery image is in the internal memory and also in the sd but of the error "can not load Recovery.img". I tried all the tutorials on the net to do root and nothing worked.The flash does not recognize to pass the recovery also the installed drivers because windows recognizes the cell phone.

Flash does not pass the file in the download only option, the process does not start. I reinstalled ROM by firmware mode all ok, but the process of passing recovery on command 12 and 13 of the error message. I manually copied the recovery to the sd and internal memory but also from the error. Does not find the file speaks that it is not a command found.

Until today I could not do root on x5 max pro. In the method below even downloading the twrp when starting with the power + volume down button start with a menu in Chinese and if you start with volume up + power goes in the default recovery mode.
Same as Pitro1 I am on 16.01 update and I cannot install twrp no matter what I try.
I tried x32 and x64. I tried rebooting directly on recovery or first load system and then adb reboot recovery. I tried to format all first (now I lost my Imei and so on lol). I downgraded and updated again. Downgrading works only with 26.12 version. All others are giving me Colorado lines on the screen and nothing else...
OEM unlock, file transfer, adb, fastboot, drivers detection, are all working good. Only I cannot install twrp...
Also I cannot write nvram nor with SN Writer 2.1504 nor with Imei & SN Writer 1.7.2, MetaAP mode fails all the time...
I'm just about to send it back...

How old is your phone and what build version was it at before you started? Because this doesn't work on mine. Which of the "Android 6" ROMs did you flash to start with as I've tried flashing mine back to an earlier one in case it's something with the later stuff that my phone has come with but they either don't make a difference or they won't even boot.
I tried the method in the first post here and the phone wouldn't even boot (switch on and you get the Doogee logo in silver for a few seconds then it reboots and does the same again). I had to flash the stock ROM from NeedROM to get it working again.
I've tried flashing TWRPx32 and x64 available NeedROM both with SPFlash tools and with ADB. Generally flashing it with ADB from the command line leaves the phone in that boot-loop. If I flash it with SPFlash when you try to boot into Bootloader afterwards you get the Doogee logo in silver for a few seconds then it seems to reboot again on it's own and boot normally - you don't even get the menu to choose Fastboot, Recovery or Normal. From then on trying to boot to the Bootloader gives you the menu but choosing Recovery gives you the standard recovery.
It's almost as if something is overwriting the recovery partition with the original after I flash TWRP onto it.
Anyone got any suggestions about where I might be going wrong or a way around whatever additional security they might have put in there?
Hi. I have tried to root my x5 max pro with flash tools to load TWRP, but it always restarts normally and the TWRP does not come out. I found you and I started to try this method to load the TWRP. Does everything good, unload bootloader and load recovery, but loading the TWRP gives me error .:
Device unauthorized.
This adb's $ ADB_VENDOR_KEYS is nor set; Try adb kil-server if that seems wrong
what I do?
rooting X5 Max pro in Ubuntu 16.04
Hi all, this is my first china phone and I basically bought it only to experiment, I'm a linux power user but this is the first time I 'play' with an android OS.
thanks to multiple guides and posts on this and other forums I'm getting somewhere and learning a lot about how to manage an android OS, I'm sharing a bit of info I unovered about doing this under ubuntu but I'm also stuck and in need of guidance, please help me.
Linux specific issues:
I'm running ubuntu 16.04 LTS, installed fastboot and adb tools from ubuntu repos, with these tools and no other modification to my system I could follow the tutorial on how to unlock the OEM bootloader with adb and fastboot.
accordingly to this post about SP flash tool in linux you might need to blacklist a modem manager module in order for SP flash tool to connect to the phone, you also need to install usb development tools (package libusb-dev) and check through dmesg that your linux OS can actually properly read mediatek usb devices.
After following the above mentioned instructions (both the linux sp flash tool tutorial and the bootloader unlocking howto) I could get SP flash tool linux (multiple version) to see the phone after you connect it while SP flash is downloading the new recovery image and flash it with an ok message.
If you get stuck with a BROM error 1013 remember to start sp flash tool with root privileges.
Phone specific issues:
I can get SP flash tool to flash my phone recovery with an ok message confirmation but the phone keeps rebooting with doogee recovery and not twrp. I'm on the newest stock ROM update (20170116) as of current post date. I've been using 32 bit TWRP images from multiple sources and linux version 5.1620 of spflash tool from their website
so my questions are as following:
1) after reading other posts I think I might have to play with different versions of SP flash tool and TWRP until I get the right combination, I think I might be using 64bit spflash tool for linux to flash a 32bit rom or something like that, can anybody confirm precise version number of the stock rom, TWRP and SP flash tool that worked out for you?
2) should I try to install the whole stock ROM posted in this chinadevices thread before trying to flash only TWRP recovery? please also check the linked thread for multiple custom ROM being ported to this phone, please also note that the full stock rom this poster uploaded (it's in the "all firmware" link) contains another flashing tools with chinese instruction called MultiDownloadTool.
www.china-devices.com/forum/index.php?threads/doogee-x5-max-pro-mt6737-custom-roms.20527/
3) I don't have access to a windows installation right now, but I do have a Win10 VM under Vmware workstation 12 pro, so I could try windows version of sp flash tool, do you guys think that USB passthrough would work?

Same here. May a work around would be finding out the oem commands in fastboot. I have seen a tutorial to get them, but you have to be root: https://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-discover-hidden-fastboot-commands/
I search a simple method
Why all so complicate? I am searching for a simple way to root.
For my old Doogee X5, I discovered just
update-ROOT-DOOGEE_X5.zip
Copy the zip to the micro-SD-card
Settings -> Phone info -> Update -> menu "update local" -> choose zip from micro-SD-card.
Start update.
That's all!
Now I search for such a simple solution for my new Doogee X5 MAX pro.
I do not want any methods with "volume down power", because my X5 MAX pro has the menus after "Volume down power" start in Chinese language.

Hi there,
I just tried the first file you posted, (twrp-x32-rom), and this one works for me after all previous attempts to boot up TWRP failed. Thanks for the link !
What I had tried before:
I have a relatively new X5 Max Pro, which I ordered a week ago. I updated the firmware to the newest version (20170116) using the OTA update function.
Then I tried to flash TWRP using the files from "needrom.com" which seem to have worked on older versions of the phone/firmware, but did not work for the newer versions.
I tried 32bit and 64bit TWRP versions and flashed them with SP flash tool, but when pressing Vol+/Power the phone would not boot into TWRP recovery. Insted, when selecting "Recovery" from the boot menu, the phone would show the Doogee logo in silver, then blink once, then boot up normally. When repeating this process, then phone boots into Stock recovery, indicating that the TWRP I flashed was replaced by stock recovery.
However, I just flashed the recovery.img from "TWRP LATEST" (the first file posted by Neaw) with SP flash tools and was finally able to boot into TWRP. I installed the superSU-zip 2.79 included in the link, and I am now rooted. Once again, thanks for posting this :good:

Do you have a dload folder with update.app inside, in sd card?
With that and pressing vol +, vol - and power at same time you enter in flash mode and start to flash the rom

Hi Have got succeeded or not, if not follow the guide.
Is your phone being detected by PC if yes then you have chances of recovering your phone.
1. Download 15 Seconds ADB and Fastboot Drivers. Visit the official XDA forum for download and installation instructions.
2. Install Huawei HiSuite which will install drivers .
3. If HiSuite doesn't install Install drivers then install universal drivers for your device .
Now connect your device to pc and open HiSuite and click on system recovery it will show options for recovery if it is success then you are fine if not then proceed to this method.
Connect your phone to PC.
Open Command Prompt in the directory where you have extracted the ADB files by holding Shift and Right Mouse Button and finally click Open Command Prompt window here in the context menu.
Completely power off your device.
While holding Volume Down button, connect your device to PC via USB cable to boot to Fastboot Mode.
1. Type the following command in ADB :
Code:
adb devices
If your device is being detected and it shows list of devices attached and its serial number.
2.Now download the firmware of the phone before your phone got bootlooped extract the update using the file here
3.Now copy the following files ( boot.img, recovery.img and system.img ,cust.img ) from the extracted files to the ADB files directory.
4.Now Execute these commands one at a time using the command prompt.
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash cust cust.img
fastboot reboot
5.Now Perform a Factory Reset if your phone got recovered.
If not then download the stock recovery of your Device and try steps 2,3,4.
Even if it doesn't get succeeded then try this option .
If your device got bootlooped while on Lollipop or Marshmallow then you have one more way to recover .
6.Now download the latest TWRP from here and boot into TWRP recovery if you cant enter TWRP recovery for this version then try the previous TWRP versions like 2.8.7 ,
7.Use the following command to flash the TWRP recovery
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
8.Then download any of the custom ROMs or ask any of the XDA members for TWRP backup for your device and flash them through Recovery.
Then Reboot your Device.
You would most probably recover your device from any of the above methods . I too had the same problem and My device was use less for almost 6 months but after several trial and error methods my device got recovered.

Did you try flashing different variant ROM ie different builds?
Actually I too got the same problem bootlooped on LP but cant flash the LP ROM back so I flashed different Region ROM.
Give a try to TWRP Method It should give you success.
Imp:
Try the previous ROM where you got Bootloop, or the version earlier to it.If it doesn't succeed try the rom which you got initially on your mobile.
PS: If your phone is being detected by your PC you have good chances of recovering your phone.
