Fresh/Clean Install MM, Install TWRP, Root and Xposed on ZX551ML (Asus Zoom) - ZenFone 2 General

I have ZX551ML (Zenfone ZOOM). Want to upgrade to MM.
Check images for more detailed specification.
I want to perform an absolutely clean install to MM.
Install TWRP and Xposed..
Please guide me to right articles/steps and files to continue ahead..
The existing device is rooted and running lollipop, I want to have MM with root
I can reach Recovery mode!
It's been more than 14 hours now since I tried what all I know & could think of doing after reading on the internet.
Please help me. Please..

Can you try following this whole thread ?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/development/rom-cleanstock-mm-z00aww-4-21-40-144-t3492278
There's a video link (Portuguese but very much understandable ) with the full tutorial (including MM bootloader upgrades and bootloader unlock)
Hope this helps!

Hello,
Thanks for your reply. 
 @GuilhermeXtreme is an excellent guy for his valuable support.
He tried his best to help me install CleanSTOCKLL and CLEANStockMM on my Asus Zoom device, but apparently the ROM supported by him is for ZOOA (ZE551ML)
My device is Z00X (ZX551ML)
Asus did a huge mistake (I assume) in naming roms for 2 different devices same.
On installing above ROMs which you have specified, mobile works fine but Mobile Network and Camera will not.
Infact @GuilhermeXtreme tried his best to help me for 2 days, to fix the issue.
At present I am on Stock Lollipop with stock recovery
(unrooted device)
Regards,

Bootloader Unlocking - 100% PERFECT:
100% Working Bootloader unlocking solution for Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro. You dont even need confirmation from Xiomi. You can UNLOCK / RE-LOCK Bootloader at any time...
Trust me, I have personally tested and unlocked my device. Follow steps mentioned over here : Click here
Conclusion : Dont wait for Xiamo to get the permission to unlock ur device. Follow above method. Altough u get permission, at least 95% chances that Mi Unlock application fails. I was trying with Mi unlock app for days and even following up in mi forums, with no working solution. They simply said, try it after a week... So, I dont want some one to waste their valuable time like me...

There are two ways,
1. Flashing Fastboot rom from mi forum will relock your Boot loader.
2. From the above mentioned tutorial, backup the original "fastboot flash aboot emmc_appsboot.mbn" file and it will relock the bootlader. optionally, you can try "fastboot oem lock" command as well.

On POST 3, I have given the link to the complete process and it works perfectly.
So, barely, its like, flashing 7.1.7 or 7.1.8 version with CHANGED MBN file. (MBN file is the main file which will allow unlocking from Fastboot command)
After flashing with changed MBN file, run the FASTBOOK OEM UNLOCK_GO command to unlock the file.
Then, u can check FASTBOOT OEM DEVICE-INFO to check the status. Then, flash other OS like CM12/13 or Qualcommn rom.
If u want MIUI os then, use FASTBOOT command to flash TWRP and reboot to TWRP. Then, download RECOVERY ZIP file and with WINZIP replace MBN and Changed BOOTLOADER (TWRP) file and then flash that file in TWRP. These steps are like an overview of the process, if u want more info, u can google it or check, MI forum
Hey guys I'm thinking of buying this phone the 32gb/3gb SD650 version to be specific and it's nice it's getting a custom roms just like the mtk version. How's the CM12/13 roms as for now overall? Stability, battery you know.. are these roms suitable for daily use? Btw now I have a K3 Note.
Custom ROMs are at very early stage and are not suitable for daily usage. As the kernel drivers are already out, we hope stable version will come soon... Qualcomm factory ROM is stable but feels slow...
Subbed and rated. Thanks for updating ^^
Direct Link to OTA for 7.2.3 is updated in first post. If anyone didnot get the OTA, download 190+MB zip file and put zip file in folder: /internalstorage/downloaded_rom/ Then, updater to update to new version of stock.

Nope, u ll not brick your phone. I have done that and it works flawlessly... I have unlocked bootloader and installed Qualcomm and CM12 roms and again flashed stock OTA via MI updater app. I didnt have any problem.
Although its not for novice users, in most of the cases, hardware bricking a phone is almost not possible, unless, u try to play directly with hardware. And, softbrick will easily be recoverable(Well u need a PC and drivers for sure)... its just like, when u r not able to run the OS in your phone, then, repair shop guy will just flash the stock rom and will give it back to you.... Just, thats what we are doing with MI updater. As mentioned earlier, this may not be for normal user...
Anyway, Thread 2 updated with new tutorial on How to flash OTAs without relocking your phone...

Need Help Rooting (solved)

Hello XDA,
I have been using Samsung phones all my life , Rooted (odin) a lotta phones installed countless custom roms and finally i thought its time for pure android experience . I bought a moto g4 plus from a friend of mine and have been going through the g4 + forum for 2 days now . I have not got the slightest of idea how you root / install custom rom on this device . Its so different from how you do it on a Samsung device so finally I have decided to ask for your help .
Info I would like to share :
1.The boot loader is locked
2.The device is a XT1643
3. 3 GB / 32 GB
4. December 1 , 2017 security patch
5. NPJS25.93-14-13
6. There was a OTA update when I received the phone which I didn't update
As mentioned earlier It looks like I am a complete noob when it comes to this device and I would need all the possible help I can get .
If anybody would be kind enough to guide me through this initial learning phase I will be very grateful and would even share my whisky ( which I usually don't do )
If you need any more information please ask
Thanks and Regards

Hello Mate
As mentioned above I have been searching the forum for almost 2 days before I thought of asking for help . I did go through the thread( that you have mentioned ) earlier today but it looks a bit old to me . The link on how to flash twrp comes back with a 404 error . The last few posts are helpful (as it deals with the same build) but again as am new to the particular device It would be helpful if someone could give me a noob friendly procedure . I am not here to break the rules just trying to learn without bricking my device
Thanks and Regards

Flashing TWRP:
>>> Flashing TWRP or Rooting will void your warranty. Please ask anything before doing, if your not fully confident on what to be done. <<<
Get the TWRP image file from http://forum.xda-developers.com/mot...p-twrp-3-0-2-2-recovery-moto-g4-plus-t3386586
Next, get the adb and mfastboot from https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5jlU9JnLAZGbVU0UzJ3N3p4X2M/view?usp=sharing
Unzip the file and place the image file inside the extracted folder.
Reboot to Bootloader (power off, then press the power and volume down buttons simultaneously).
Open a new command prompt or terminal window and do the following:
Code:
mfastboot flash recovery twrp_*version*_athene.img

Sorry for being so short earlier. We have quite a few members here who constantly post issues without using the search function.
You can try to post I quoted above to flash TWRP. It's fairly straight forward.
Are you planning on flashing a Nougat ROM or are you going the adventurous route and flashing an Oreo ROM? The TWRP version mentioned in the quoted post should be fine for flashing Nougat and 32-bit based Oreo ROMs, but you'll need 64-bit TWRP for 64-bit Oreo ROMs.
Use this as a reference for 32-bit and 64-bit Oreo ROMs: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/oreo-roms-table-t3717226
64-bit TWRP: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mo...recovery-twrp-3-2-1-unofficial-touch-t3722206
Once you've flashed TWRP, you can either flash different versions through TWRP itself or through the Play Store app.
As far as ROMs, I'd recommend Official Lineage OS 14.1 for Nougat: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/development/rom-cyanogenmod-14-1-t3522101
And I'd recommend Official AICP 13.1 for Oreo: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mo...om-aicp-13-1-o-8-1-0-official-weekly-t3731269 (You'll need to download the 20180212 build since most recent builds either have a broken camera or won't boot.)
Any other questions, don't hesitate to ask.

@Ragarianok
I am going to try the Oreo builds as I have never got a chance to try it on my previous devices so I guess I will be using a 64bit version of twrp.
This is what am planning to do :
1. Unlock the bootloader
2. Flash an official version of TWRP
2.a Take a backup
3. Flash a custom kernel through twrp
4. Flash Super Su / Magisk
5. Flash a 64 bit version of twrp using TWRP
6. Flash a custom ROM
Please correct me if I am wrong
Thanks a lot for the detailed guide

If you want 64bit Oreo roms it's a little bit different
1. Unlock the bootloader
2. Flash a 64 bit version of twrp
2.a Take a backup and safe it off your phone
3. Flash a Oreo 64bit custom ROM
3.a flash gapps package arm64 (8.0 or 8.1 depending on rom version)
4. Flash magisk 15.3
If you want to root the stock nougat rom steps 1-4 of your list are correct.

Not quite. You'll want to go in this order:
1. Unlock bootloader
2. Flash TWRP
3. Backup
4. Wipe (Wipe/Advanced Wipe; ART/Dalvik, System, Data, Cache)
5. Flash ROM
6. Flash Gapps
7. Reboot
8. Go through setup wizard and let everything settle for ~10 minutes
9. Boot into TWRP and flash SuperSU or Magisk (I would suggest Magisk), then flash kernel and reboot
You'll need to flash the unofficial 64-bit TWRP mentioned in my previous post to flash a 64-bit Oreo ROM, otherwise you'll get an error message when flashing ROM.
You'll also need to use unofficial Gapps since there aren't any official Gapps for 8.1 just yet. I'd recommend either mini or micro here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/unofficial-opengapps-8-1/files/arm64/20180225/
You should be able to flash the most recent Magisk located here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/beta-magisk-v13-0-0980cb6-t3618589
If you do flash a custom kernel, I'd highly suggest Frostbitten: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mo...s-frostbitten-kernel-moto-g4-g4-plus-t3649155

If it was an OTA update, it looks likely to be more the February 2018 security patch rather than the January 2018 patch.

That is true, however for our devices we have generally been issued the same security patch level regardless of region. It may be different builds for particular regions (e.g NPJS25.93-14-13 for India, Brazil and EU, and NPJ25.93-14.7-3 for US) but they are both the December 2017 security patch.
Regardless, we've still yet to see an OTA newer than December.

First, I'm a little confused about the fact that you flashed that version of TWRP instead of the one located here: https://dl.twrp.me/athene/
Second, I've never had that happen when flashing, so I'm not really sure what to recommend. If I had to guess, I would say the best route would be to restore your backup and see if the SIM is detected.
I have found at least one thread with a similar issue; might be worth a look: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/fix-sim-card-issue-t3751679

I want to install and try Custom ROM's.
I'm a newbie and don't have any idea regarding the necessary tools required for those installations.
Can anyone provide me the instructions or steps in details on how to install custom ROM on my phone?
Thank you.

1. PixelDust-X-aosp-X00T-20200124-1750
2. Xiaomi.Eu_20.3.26_X00TD
3. RevengeOS-3.1-Q-OFFICIAL-X00T-20200223-1713
4. Bliss-v12.4-X00T-OFFICIAL-20200228
5. Xiaomi.Eu_Stable_11.0.3.0_X00TD
6. MiUiPro_Mod_EU_11.0.3.0_stable_X00TD
7. Pixel experience or Pixel experience plus edition.
I want a ROM which has customization features like Miui and which is stable. Can you please tell me the best stable Custom ROM among the above so that I can install them?

For me, custom roms on Android Pie are much more stable than custom roms on Android 10, Better try those roms. Also you can try flashing those roms that you are interested and make some time to explore its features if it suits to your likes :good:

I think you were using THE OFFICIAL ANDROID 10 BETA. Try rolling back to pie. Go to the official website and search for "downgrade to 9" on the firmware list and follow the instructions.
And, you unlocked the bootloader using which method, the official method or unofficial method ?
I mean, did you download the unlocker from the official website or some where else ?

Can you just downgrade OOS to Android 10 and then flash TWRP or is it impossible?

Hi, I recently bought an used OnePlus 8 Pro and it was already updated to Android 11. After repairing it, I discovered that it's not possible to run TWRP on this firmware version.
Couldn't I just go ahead and downgrade the OS in order to run TWRP on it or is it basically impossible like on the latest Samsung Galaxy S-series devices?
Would be glad if someone could answer me that question. I kinda tried to boot into twrp because I was too quick to read the thread but it just caused my device to run into Qualcomm Emegency Mode.
What do you need twrp for? If it's just to root and almost everything else... It can be done via other means.

Hmmmm the way I've seen a lot of custom roms... They're installed/flashed partition by partition in bootloader via fastboot.....I guess if you have to use twrp to flash the entire rom you do need to downgrade to os 10.

Thank you for your response. i think i just did not catch up the latest progress. Would you please help me find the instruction about how to flash rom in the new way you mentioned ? thank you so much.
And i still have the same question , is it necessary for us to downgrade to android 10 and then start flashing rom.
Look at the roms in the subforum here:
OnePlus 8 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other
Improve your OnePlus 8 Pro 's battery life, performance, and look by rooting it and installing a custom ROM, kernel, and more.

I just looked at some popular ones like Pixel experience and Lineage and they're both flashed in this way. Look at the opening post where the instructions are... Seems like Pixel Experience there's a batch file that flashes the partitions but it's essentially done this way without twrp.

thank you for your reply, I already tried to flash pixel experience, i followed the install guide but failed to flash its recovery file.

Because it requires installing rom from recovery, so I get stuck here.
The problem is the device enters crash dump mode when switched to recovery mode. I guess the reason is that my p8pro is in andriod 11 before i flash recovery. now the device can enter android 11 normally but the recovery don't function. So I am here to ask is it necessary for me to downgrade to android 10 to solve the problem.

Thank you for your reply, it help me a lot. i have already flash my device lineage os . Regarding the problem i mentioned in my last reply, it seems the install guide is for android 10. As for android 11 , i think it needs a payload dumper to extract all files and flash them one by one.

I think the answer depends why do you need twrp. If you just want to flash a rom like me, you can find a custom rom supporting android 11,for example lineage os and you can flash all files it requires without twrp.
If you want to flash a android 10 rom or you just want to flash twrp , i don't know how, maybe you should downgrade.
