Zuk Z2Pro Android 7 Version - Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro Questions & Answers

Hi All,
Was finally able to get a hold of the Android 7 version for Zuk Z2pro, at this point it's in the development phase, looks pretty stable as of now, it's just been an hour since I installed it, Got it from the Chinese site ( Landlord ) a little tough to figure out the content on the site, but the ROM is in English.
I tried flashing it with the Stock Recovery but didn't work , went back to 2.3.044 and then flashed the TWRP ( Chinese Version ) Did a dirty flash, and all the sensors {Heart Rate, UV Sensor, Pedometer, Proximity, etc } seem to be working fine. The file is available in a Baidu link, and it takes a lot of time to download.
The ROM now supports themes but as of now i see only 4 inbuilt themes and no black themes. But inbuilt themes uses nice icons to make it look simple and neat. I shall post pics of the screens. Settings now show the lab features directly to play around with fake location( never got it working though ). As of now calls and Volte working fine. Haven't been successful in making video calls over LTE with Zui Roms.
Need some help in getting a cloud storage to upload the file.
If someone could help me, would be happy to upload it for the benefit of the community. Again ***** Please do install it at your own risk, make sure you backup in TWRP before you flash this ROM , the size is 1.6 GB. ***** All thanks to the Chinese forums BBS.lenovomobiles.

Following are the bugs I have noticed
1. Vibration stops working, a reboot will be needed
2. Manual mode in the Camera gives a red tint in faster shutter speeds
3. No Root, haven't been able to root it, maybe I am doing it wrong. Flashing the Superuser in TWRP makes the sim card go an undetected state.
4. No options to set a live wallpaper ( Google Pixel wallpaper with animation ). Figured out a way to fix it by using the app shortcut maker to set a shortcut for the live wallpaper picker.
5. Battery seems to be draining faster.
Will keep adding can't complain as it is a dev version.

Gapps working?

I'm not able to flash it via chinese TWRP. I've also tried TWRP from Emmaus. If someone can share a working recovery with this ROM I'll tell you my opinion about it. (Error 7 is the problem).

TWRP works fine, just that I wasn't able to root it, Gapps not required, as I installed the Google sync app and the Google contacts previously on the 2.3.044 build since I did a dirty update, got the play store and the Google contacts in tact

Hey I was on CM13 By Emmaus, did a TWRP backup.
Flashed the Chinese TWRP.
Wipe -> Flashed the Android 7 ZUI -> Used it for a day and wanted to go back to CM13.
I flashed the TWRP By Emmaus-> Restore-> Now the phone doesnt go past the ZUK logo with the blue LED light.
What do you think needs to be done to restore the TWRP backup and go back to CM13?
Edit: Solution: I had QFIL to 1.9 then flash Emmaus Recovery and restore.

hey dude, i had same problem, i couldn flash any rom through twrp, nor could i recover any backup.. then i saw your post, i could hardly flash 1.9 firmware, but even then, and even with locked or unlocked bootloader, i could neither update through official firmware update process (OTA) nor could i flash anything through any recovery, it stucks on updating/flashing system image unconditionaly.. so something strange happens when flashing 7.0, so you cannot go back anyway. May you could help. Its just so anoying that i cant restore my backups, cant install any custom rom, official rom, only qfil works but dont solves any problem.
thanks in advance

I"m not certain about other backups. But I had a CM13 TWRP backup.
What I did was:
QFIL to 1.9. This should work irrespective of what recovery you have. This is like an absolute reset. Once this is done, let your phone reboot and load once.
Then adb reboot bootloader
In the bootloader mode -> Flash the recovery ( You will need to flash Emmaus recovery if you are going back to CM13).
Once flashed. You can wipe the data,system and cache. Install CM13 and you should be all set.
You could also wipe and restore any old CM13 Backup too. Hope this helps.

SOLVED
SOLVED: HOW? STRANGE!
i did everything exact same as at home, but somehow ..just somehow ..it didnt ****ed itself and didnt stuck on everywhere and indeed succeeded flashing every f****** rom!
so here a step-by-step (if some ever expirience same) thanks to you all which i can confirm:
1. flash 1.9.104 rom through qfil (let it boot..)
2. enable usb debuging through enabled developer settings
3. boot in fastboot (adb reboot bootloader) unlock bootloader with your unlock_bootloader.img (fastboot -i 0x2b4c flash unlock unlock_bootloader.img) right after that unlock it (fastboot -i 0x2b4c oem unlock-go) forreal
4. reboot, then enable usb debuging again and boot in fastboot again (adb reboot bootloader)
5. flash emmaus TWRP (fastboot flash recovery recovery.img) DO !NOT! USE ---> [fastboot -i 0x2b4c boot recovery.img] <--- CODE!
6. boot to TWRP, wipe data/cache/dalvik-cache (system not needed, better dont wipe system to be sure)
7. flash AICP, RR or CM13 .zip, NOT ANY OTHER (https://emmaus.pro/?dir=Zuk Z2 Pro & http://forum.xda-developers.com/zuk-z2-pro/development/rom-aicp-11-0-mm-6-0-1-unofficials-t3499283) those work for sure on emmaus TWRP
8. reboot, DONE
to every single zuk z2 pro user out there, please make sure your PC, USB PORT, USB-CABLE is working right, because even if everything seems right, under the hook its sometimes not. In my case, i knew it, but could not believe it since qfil showed me SUCCSESS in every section, the connection betweet cable and usb port was faulty, thats the only possibility. THANK YOU ALL VERY MUCH, this was one of the most HARD-BRIKS ive ever experienced, and ive been through S2, S3, S4, S5, S6, HTC ONE M7 hard-bricks.. so.. yeah!!! THANK YOU VERY MUCH :')

i try this zip on my twrp , but my phone are dead don't run anybody else
what i can do ?

Many thanks to you ! the flash worked very well. i had same issues here . best description ever many many thanks !!

Order of things to be done - unlocking/flashing etc

I intend to create a post with how to do things on this phone.
Just bought the 64GB Black.
So, trying to pull the order of things to be done.
Please help, this is for newbies.
When you receive it. What should be done first? (and how did you do it???)
(EDIT : I will update this as I find things out.)
Bootloader
Follow the guide found here : http://xiaomitips.com/guide/unlock-mi-5-bootloader/
You should do this in advance of getting your phone.
Recovery - TWRP
Guide here : http://en.miui.com/thread-245756-1-1.html
Which ROM to install?
CM alternative?
Gapps?
If you own the Mi5, how did you go about it? Any tips? What went wrong? How did you fix?
First I unlocked my bootloader, which is essential to do first. Then I flashed TWRP using the ADB terminal thing on my computer via USB. After I had TWRP, I rooted my phone using SuperSU. But I was bored of MIUI so I flashed Cyanogenmod 13 in the thread in the MI 5 ROM forum. I have not changed anything since then really, I'm using the root that comes with CM now. It's all really good.
Edit: make sure you flash google apps at the SAME TIME as cyanogenmod! Without booting in between! Also the snapchat camera doesn't work right now for CM but if you use the app casper.io (not on play store, google it) you can use the phones camera app and then it works fine.

Which TWRP did you use (link?)
Which GApps did you use? (Nano, pico, stock etc) and presumably ARM64?
since there isn't a sdcard, are you able to do a full backup so you can revert back to if you have second thoughts. I guess you have to do a full wipe prior to flashing e.g CM13
Questions about rooting
Hey I got a Mi5 64GB with unlocked bt and twrp installed.
Now I want to root the device but when I boot to twrp I can't flash files because the device is encrypted by default and in order to decrypt it I need to perform a full wipe or enter a password, I don't know the password because it's not a password I decided on, I don't really have a problem doing a full wipe I don't have any important data.
But here are my questions:
1. If I'll do a full wipe will I have to install MiUi and twrp again?
2. Right now if I connect my phone to my PC using USB when it's in recovery mode I can't use MTP and if I'll perform a full wipe the SuperSU.zip will get deleted from my device and I will have to get it back to the device somehow and I can't because I can't use MTP when I'm in recovery mode. So I thought maybe after the full wipe I will be able to use MTP on recovery maybe I can't because it's encrypted at the moment?
Thanks
TWRP - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24533103863138514 (no touch screen issue which is present in other recoveries)
GApps - http://opengapps.org/ (ARM64) I used microG instead of gapps to save a lot of battery. (You can google it if you want)
It doesn't really matter what GApps do you use, although I'd go for nano/pico. I wouldn't want all the GApps to be my system apps.

1. You just need to format data, your system partition will not be wiped. You will just lose everything except the system.
2. You probably will be able to use MTP, although I'm not but other people are so you should too. If you don't, you'll need to go to advanced in TWRP, enter adb sideload and sideload the zip.

After Update Bootloop
After the 7.0 Update, i have an issue. If my Umi Plus is connected to my WLAN AP (with other devices no such error), it is rebooting every 10 seconds. If i turn my Access Point off, it stops rebooting itself and if i turn it on again, it is restarting after 5 seconds over and over again. My mobile carrier internet works fine, without any such errors.
I dont want to use my mobile carrier with limit, but my home wlan.
Anyone has similiar issues? If anyone knows the solution please write it

So far so good. Android 7 has made a big improvement to my Super.
Does anyone know if root is possible with this beta and / or whether there's a version of TWRP that will work with it?

Root is possible using TWRP 3.0.2 for umi.
I've attached a zip file of the TWRP version below, unzip it and flash using SPT flashtool, you need to untick all the other boxes and just tick the recovery and direct it to where you unpacked the zip file.
I've also attached the Super su i used to root the beta 2 for the umi super. Flash it in TWRP.
Brilliant, thanks for that @Creedo4Life.
Can you remind my poof befuddled brain please - does flashing TWRP / recovery wipe the device? I should know this but can't remember.
Thanks again.

No worries. There's no need to wipe anything after you flashed Supersu in TWRP. One of the best things about Nougat 7 is that it use a different file system then Lollipop and Marshmallow, so you will never again sit and wait while the OS optimize apps (sometimes hundreds if you had a lot of apps installed!!) Just reboot after flash and you good to go. The first boot might bootloop once or twice, no need to do anything it will di everything on its own. Enjoy full root mate.

Quick question - I've only flashed recoveries using adb before, how do I point SPFlashTool at the recovery .img file?
Do I replace the recovery.img file inside the UMI ROM folder, with the TWRP .img file?
And then tick 'Recovery' inside SPFlashTool per your instructions?
Thanks,
Steve

That's correct, you browse the img file on the ticket recovery (the only one that should be ticked.) click on "download only" while your phone is switched off and then connect it through the usb. It will then flash TWRP and let you know when its done. Now disconnect your phone and hold in power button and volume up simultaneously. When you see the umi logo let go of the power button but keep holding volume up. When you see the TWRP logo you can let go. The first time you boot into TWRP you need to swipe the bar which will allow modifications, you will only have to do that once, the system will then remember it. Good luck and happy rooting.
Thanks.
Hmm, this is odd though. I managed to get TWRP flashed but whenever I flash that SuperSU and reboot, all my apps complain and keep quitting when I try to launch them. I've been careful to wipe cache after flashing, as usual.
In fact I've rried wiping everything cache, dalvik, - even started again from an entirely factory-wiped device, including data.
Flashed a fresh copy of the Nougat beta ROM, booted up fine. Flashed TWRP, booted up fine but then I reboot to recovery, flash SuperSU and bingo - on my next reboot all the apps starts complainin that they have stopped - even Launcher.
Weird...

That's very odd. I used the exact same supersu myself and never encountered that problem. That version is also compatible with Nougat. Try one of the other versions on https://www.chainfire.eu/
Maybe that solves your problem.

You have full root, you just don't know it.
If you want to edit anything in any system folders you need to change r, rw permissions. I use file explorer for this. Look at the attached SS to understand what I mean.

No, you need to flash beta 2 using SPFT, there is no zip file to use with TWRP for this.

OnePlus 3T Recovery Loop

Hello lovely XDA-members,
this morning a new OTA update/patch came out for my OnePlus 3T, so I downloaded and tryed to install it right away. My phone is rooted on android 7.0 and I have TWRP 3.0.3-0 installed as my recovery. Normally (when I updated to nougat) after downloading a new update the phone reboots itself into TWRP and installs the update by itself, but not this time. I had to seqrch through my phone and had to install thw update manually. After that I rebooted the phone and it started booting the TWRP recovery again, I tried it again and again and again, nothint changed. So I tried to restore my backup with everything functioning, but this wouldnt help either. :/ I read the few existing threads with this problem and heard of a recovery flag that isnt cleared and the bootloader being the problem. One solution that I found was only for an LG phone and I'm afraid that I'll brick my brand new phone I have absolutely no idea what to do now, I would be so happy if someone could help me with this :$
I thank you in advance <3
Encoutered the same problem. Either you reflash the official or twrp recovery (neither did the trick to me) or use this "emergency tool" (which helped me):
https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/unbrick-guide-oneplus-3t.481214/
Btw: TWRP 3.0.3-0 is not working well, switch to 3.0.3-1 beta
Good luck to you
I had the same problem.
How you can ''unbrick it'':
1. Flash a any rom available for the oneplus 3t via twrp
a. after this you will be still in twrp bootloop, to solve this go to step 2
2. Flash back stock recovery via twrp
Now your system will boot again
Optional: Flash back twrp
Just flash stock recovery via adb and you're done. It will fix the problem, you won't lose any data

How To Guide [TWRP] MI 11 (Pro/Ultra) (mars/star)

[TWRP] MI 11 (Pro/Ultra) (mars/star)​
WARNING : I do not know who made this TWRP and I am NOT taking credit for it. It was posted on eu site and I'm just sharing since there was no thread for twrp here on xda.
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Before starting the process, the bootloader must be unlocked.
2. Install Xiaomi USB drivers.
3. Enable Usb debugging from Settings - Additional settings - developer options.
4. Download TWRP for Mi 11 (Pro/Ultra) , and put it in your fastboot folder.
5. Put your phone into fastboot mode.
6. Rename downloaded file to "twrp.img".
7. Do the following command. It will automatically boot into TWRP.
Code:
fastboot boot twrp.img
8. If you get a screen asking for a pin, press 2nd option
and change language to English then enter phone pin.
9. Change language to English (press the 6th option).
10. Go to "Advanced" and select "Onekey inject TWRP".
11. Swipe to inject the TWRP. It might take a few minutes, so don't worry.
Note
1) Don't change the boot slot, currently (Slot A) for most or your device will not boot at all.
2) For user experiencing decrypt issue, you can try one of the methods below to enable decryption:
a. Remove all your security eg. fingerprint, face unlock, pattern and leave ONLY pin. Reboot to twrp and try again.
b. Reflash twrp.
c. LAST RESORT! Format data and factory reset your device then reflash twrp.
3. For user experiencing decrypt issue but just want to flash latest build:
a. Boot to twrp > mount > mount usb storage then transfer your rom.zip to data/media/0
b. Now go to install and look for rom.zip under data/media/0. Profit!
4. The decrypt issue was a bug on the Chinese twrp, no update since may so don't ask for an ETA.
CHANGELOGS
07/18/21
1) Additional instruction from scratch.
2) Additional note for people having decrypt issue.

Your device is not connected, hence the empty list after adb devices.
Did you enable USB debugging in Developer options?

Thx It's ok,I got it after a few attempts
The language on twrp still opens on Chinese and it needs changed to English each time but apart from that it seems to work fine!

Yes and yes
Thanks, it works for me.
But each time i boot on TWRP, go back to chinesse language.
Can we do backup ? (and what can we backup) in case of something wrong in the future

The recovery is fully functional as far as I can tell...
I did a complete backup successfully but I haven't tried to restore it yet
You click on everything ?
Hi,
after a long day of learning the hard way (got stuck in Fastboot Loop) I am now on stable EU 12.5.7 (MI11 Ultra, EU phone). So far so good, but I was wondering, how can I make TWRP stuck to the phone, meaning, when I push the power button to have an option like: Boot into TWRP. Is that possible or is there a "click this button with this... trick"?
ATM, I can only get TWRP to work, when I enable it via PC, which is not good.
I am asking, because I have an old Oneplus 6, which has this option. TWRP is installed and I can boot directly to it, if I want to.
Can you please help me out? Is there a trick or am I doing something wrong?
Greetings from Germany

I believe you are on custom EU rom right? Just reboot into recovery, custom eu rom injects twrp as standard recovery
Hi, yes I am and I did that also. But still can't boot into TWRP from within the phone. Is there a trick after the injection?

Question [Solved] Help with fixing my phone back to Normal after playing with Roms & Twrp

Got the bootloader unlocked..should've read more & implemented over a proper guide.
long story short:
stared with magisk apk..when phone was fine.. then got into bootloop;
quickly downloaded & flashed the global (lime) MIUI V12.0.5.0.QJQMIXM;
installed twrp; should've done this before.
wasn't able to copy anything into internal storage.
Used Twrp to wipe phone.. & flashed the stock_global_miui_(lime)12.0.5 boot.img in fastboot
because twrp was saying "unable to decrypt fbe device" on internal storage
formatted using twrp.
booted properly but setup says device is locked because associated with existing mi account can't open wifi but was able to activate device upon entering password on mobile data setup completes but device restarts frequently & still unable to access wifi
I think it has something to do with "unable to decrypt fbe device"..
should I try flashing custom rom boot img?
please don't ban me..tell if I did something wrong, I'll correct that..
..
Edit:
MiFlash-tool Worked
Flashing other compaitable custom Rom also worked
..
Had twrp wipe the whole phone and the format the partions
& then flashed in fastboot & everything was normal.
..
FBE device encryption is basically storage encryption that prevents dirty flashing miui rom via fastboot.
this can be avoided by implementing proper procedure of magisk & use of lazypatcher.
Thank you so much.. @Cursader & @zoel.fahmi for pointing me in the right direction.. godbless
[solved]
Currently I'm running Miui just like a new device.
I will make another guide thread on rooting systemlessly & flashing other custom rooms... if I succeed I will link it here..
Try to reboot bootloader
then flash twrp
wipe everything and format the data partition
reboot to twrp again
then flash custom rom
If you're flashing miui again, your phone bootloader will be lock again and you need something like lazy2flasher if you wanna keep miui with twrp and magisk etc.

first of all thank you for taking out the time to read & respond..
I found an article with lazy 2 flasher earlier, I'll look into it..
is there any where I should look to find a suited custom rom for my phone..

you can use custom rom from Poco M3 since it's used the same SoC (662)
here : https://forum.xda-developers.com/f/poco-m3-roms-kernels-recoveries-other-develop.11969/
check the thread name Poco M3 / Redmi 9T or unified or codename like citrus and lime
whats the difference between Lime, Citrus, & Juice..
Mine is Lime
Juice is Lime & Citrus I think..
So will Juice work on a device which previously ran Lime?
..
basically can I install PixelPlusUi_Juice
or should I first try the lazy2flasher.. & @zoel.fahmi
where do I get lazy2flasher
If anything goes for me (RedmiNote9Pro) i just use miflash to flash original miui and start all over from there, might not be the quickest method but is easy and reliable

If the bootloader unlocked and you can go into fastboot you can flash stock rom and It's just like it came from the store! Here you have link for your convinience: https://c.mi.com/oc/miuidownload/detail?guide=2
MiFlash-tool Worked..
(its the best tool for bringing mi devices from rom mess back to scratch new)
Flashing other Rom also worked..(pixelui)
juice = lime + citrus (works for both)
Thank you so much.. @Cursader & @zoel.fahmi for pointing me in the right direction..
