[SIZE=+2]Moto X Pure[/SIZE]​
[SIZE=+1]Intro[/SIZE]
This thread will serve as a location for basic how-to guides for the Moto X Pure. I'm going to start off with a couple of the more obvious ones and go from there. If anyone has any suggestions for additions please feel free to let me know.
[size=+1]Prerequisites[/size]:
You'll need a working adb/fastboot environment on your PC to get through some of these guides. Go here to download the Android SDK, which will give you most updated version of adb and fastboot. Scroll to the bottom of the page and find Other Download Options>SDK Tools Only, and grab the right version for your OS. While it's downloading create a folder in C:\ called SDK (C:\SDK). Once you've downloaded the zip you can extract it into your C:\SDK folder. Navigate to C:\SDK\android-sdk-windows and open SDK Manager.exe. In SDK Manager you need to install the following packages:
Tools> Android SDK Tools, Android SDK Platform-tools
Extras> Android Support Library
Once you have installed those, inside C:\SDK you should see some new folders, one of them will be called platform-tools, within that folder you should see fastboot.exe and adb.exe. I'll refer to this as your fastboot folder/directory or working folder/directory during this guide. To make sure adb is correctly installed, open a command prompt from within your fastboot folder (hold shift + right click, select open command prompt here) and issue this command:
Code:
adb version
If it returns a version number for Android Debug Bridge then you're good to go.
You'll find Motorla drivers here, download it and install, then reboot your PC.
You can test adb by connecting your device to your PC while booted into Android (making sure that adb/usb debugging is enabled in Settings>Developer Options) with the screen unlocked and issuing this command:
Code:
adb devices
It should return your device serial number, if so, adb is working.
You can test fastboot by connecting your device to your PC while booted into fastboot mode (power + volume down) and issuing this command:
Code:
fastboot devices
It should return your device serial number, if so, fastboot is working.
By attempting any of the processes listed this thread you accept full responsibility for your actions. I will not be held responsible if your device stops working, catches on fire, or turns into a hipster and claims to have been modified before it was cool.

How To Unlock Your Bootloader
How To Install A Custom Recovery On Your Device
How To Make A Nandroid Backup With TWRP Recovery
How To Root Your Stock Rom
How To Install A ROM with TWRP Recovery
How To Install A Custom Kernel With TWRP Recovery
How To Make Sure You Can Pretty Much Always Recover From An Accidentally Wiped System
[SIZE=+1]1. How To Unlock Your Bootloader[/SIZE]
Go into About Phone in Settings, click on Build Number 7 or 8 times until it says you have enabled Developer Options. Go back to Settings and enter the newly opened Developer Options section, scroll and click on the Enable OEM Unlock option.
Power off your phone then boot into fastboot mode (power + volume down).
Connect your phone to your PC via usb cable.
Open a command prompt from within your fastboot folder (navigate to where you have fastboot.exe located on your PC, shift + right click anywhere within that folder, select open command prompt here).
Check your fastboot connection by issuing this command:
Code:
fastboot devices
It should return your device serial number, if not you need to make sure your drivers are installed correctly.​
Once you've confirmed your fastboot connection issue this command:
Code:
fastboot oem get_unlock_data
It should return something like this:
Code:
(bootloader) 0A40040192024205#4C4D3556313230
(bootloader) 30373731363031303332323239#BD00
(bootloader) 8A672BA4746C2CE02328A2AC0C39F95
(bootloader) 1A3E5#1F53280002000000000000000
(bootloader) 0000000
Copy that code (with no spaces between the characters) and paste it somewhere for safekeeping, you'll use it in a minute.
Go to the Motorola bootloader unlocking page. You'll need to create an account with Motorola if you don't already have one. Once you're signed in you can scroll down to step 6 and paste the above code into the text field and hit the “can my device be unlocked” button.
Read the terms and conditions and accept them if you agree (you can't continue unless you accept).
Click the “request unlock key” button and an email with your unlock token will be sent to the email account that you signed up with.
Once you have retrieved the token from the email you can use it within the following command to unlock your bootloader:
Code:
fastboot oem unlock xxxxxxxxxx
(Replace the xxxxxxxx with your unique unlock token)​
Your bootloader is now unlocked!
Reboot with this command:
Code:
fastboot reboot
It's now safe to disconnect your usb cable.
Please note: this will erase all user data from your device, it is best to do this before you really start using the device and installing apps or putting data on the internal storage
[SIZE=+1]2. How To Install A Custom Recovery On Your Device[/SIZE]
Prerequisites: unlocked bootloader.
Download the recovery of your choice, here's TWRP.
Make sure you check the md5 to verify its integrity (where possible).
Place the file in your fastboot folder (this is where fastboot.exe is located on your PC).
Put the phone in fastboot mode and connect it to your PC via usb cable.
Open a command prompt from within your fastboot folder (shift + right click, select open command prompt here), and enter the following commands:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery <filename>.img
(Replace <filename> with the actual filename of the recovery, the recovery filename in the command will change depending on which recovery you're flashing)
Wait for the recovery to flash, it'll only take a few seconds, you'll get a finished message in your command prompt window once it's done.
It's now safe to disconnect your usb cable.
Don't reboot the phone normally, use the volume buttons to highlight recovery and press the power button to select it. This will stop the stock OS from patching it with the stock recovery in boot. Once you've booted into TWRP like this once, you can reboot normally.
[SIZE=+1]3. How To Make A Nandroid Backup With TWRP Recovery[/SIZE]
Prerequisites: unlocked bootloader, TWRP recovery.
A nandroid backup is a very important thing to have before installing any custom software on your device. It's basically a backup of your stock system that you can fall back on if anything goes wrong or if you just want your stock ROM back. You can also use the backup tool to create a backup of your favourite ROM set up exactly the way you like it. The backup you create can be easily restored using the restore tool in TWRP recovery.
All you need to do is enter TWRP recovery, select the backup option from the TWRP home screen, check the system/data/boot boxes, and swipe to backup. The process will take a few minutes.
[SIZE=+1]4. How To Root Your Stock Rom[/SIZE]
Prerequisites: unlocked bootloader, TWRP recovery.
Please note: this method is only valid for Lollipop, do not use this method on Marshmallow. You can find a systemless root method for Marshmallow here, big thanks to @ivcarlos!
Download SuperSU to your phone.
Boot into TWRP recovery.
Select the install option from the TWRP home screen.
Navigate to where you have SuperSU stored on your sd card and select it.
Swipe to install.
Once you've installed SuperSU you'll have an option to wipe cache/dalvik and an option to reboot system. Wipe the cache/dalvik, hit the back button, and hit the reboot system button. That's it.
[SIZE=+1]5. How To Install A ROM with TWRP Recovery[/SIZE]
Prerequisites: unlocked bootloader, TWRP recovery.
Installing a ROM is a pretty straight forward and easy process. Before you install anything you should make a nandroid backup (instructions above).
Download a ROM and appropriate Gapps package and place on your device.
Boot into your custom recovery.
Perform a full wipe.
Select the wipe option from the TWRP home screen.
Select advanced wipe.
Check the system, data, cache, and dalvik cache options.
Swipe to wipe.
Install the ROM.
Select the install option from the TWRP home screen.
Navigate to where you have the ROM zip stored on your sd card and select it.
Swipe to install.
Most ROMs will run an installer script at this point but some ROMs have what is called an Aroma Installer which allow you to choose some install options before the script runs.​
You will also need to install the appropriate gapps package directly after installing the ROM.
Once you've installed all necessary zips you'll have an option to wipe cache/dalvik and an option to reboot system. Wipe the cache/dalvik, hit the back button, and hit the reboot system button.
[SIZE=+1]6. How To Install A Custom Kernel With TWRP Recovery[/SIZE]
Prerequisites: unlocked bootloader, TWRP recovery.
A custom kernel can open up a new level of control over your device, such as overclocking/underclocking, undervolting, changing governors, changing I/O schedulers, adjusting colour calibrations, adjusting sound calibrations, and many other options.
Download a kernel that is compatible with your current ROM.
Check the md5 to verify its integrity.
Enter TWRP recovery.
Select the install option from the TWRP home screen.
Navigate to the kernel and select it.
Swipe to install.
You'll have an option to wipe cache/dalvik and an option to reboot system. Wipe the cache/dalvik, hit the back button, and hit the reboot system button.
Once your phone has booted up you can use a kernel tuning app to change governors, I/O scheduler, clock speed, and other options. Some of the popular kernel apps are Kernel Auditor, Trickster Mod, No Frills, Kernel Tuner, and many more.
[SIZE=+1]7. How To Make Sure You Can Pretty Much Always Recover From An Accidentally Wiped System[/SIZE]
Prerequisites: unlocked bootloader, TWRP recovery.
There may come a time when you accidentally wipe your OS while trying to perform a basic cache wipe in recovery. Don't laugh, it can happen to the best of us. The best way to insure yourself against being stuck in recovery is to keep a ROM zip or a TWRP/CWM backup (a nandroid backup) on your sd card at all times.
This solution seems like common sense but apparently there are quite a few people out there who don't store a ROM or backup on their phone. You might think it's easy to just mount the OTG storage and copy a ROM across to your phone from your PC (which is definitely an option), but there's always a chance that you won't be near your HDD or sd card at the time, or it won't recognise your phone properly. Basically you need to insure yourself against Murphy's law.

This will be very helpful to many thanks for taking the time to put this together!

Thank you so much for taking the time on the guide. There will be many who will use it in the years to come! I'm just about at the verge of needing to root so I can get some insight into my battery life woes

This is much appreciated. All I did on my LG G2 was root as I did not see any roms that interested me since the bootloader is locked. I haven't used TWRP in a couple of years, so all this will help me clear the old cobwebs in my head.

Thank you so much for this! Exactly the kind of information I need. Can I trouble you to maybe add one more section to your guide: What to do when there's an OTA update from the manufacturer (Motorola)? I have concerns like:
- Would being rooted prevent OTA updates? (Assuming stock ROM).
- Would I need to "unroot" the phone to get the update? If so, how to unroot the the phone?
- Is the process to root the phone again after the the update the same, or could it possibly change?
- Would I need to wait until root is confirmed for the new version before attempting to re-root?

You said to "Make sure you check the md5 to verify its integrity".
What does this mean and how would I do this?

Thanks again for the guide. I went through this for my own unlock and root, so added a couple of minor things that will help noobs (and me!)
1. Add info on opening developer options, enabling ADB devices, and enable OEM unlock (in options screen)
2. Move this part to the start of the OEM unlock section : )
Please note: this will erase all user data from your device, it is best to do this before you really start using the device and installing apps or putting data on the internal storage
3. Add instructions to copy SuperSU zip file to internal storage and then flash in recovery

You can download an MD5 checker. They give you the MD5 checksum and you can compare when you run the utility. Just do a google search for md5 checker.

Thanks for your suggestions.
1. This info has been added.
2. This section is in the same place in all of my guides, I see no problem (and have had no problems) with its location. Anyone following a guide should read it first before attempting it anyway.
3. I've added inductions to download the zip directly to the phone, less mess.

Well thanks for your help anyway. I followed the steps to a tee, and no root. So I was a little confused.

It's a bit odd because this is definitely how to root this phone. Was the SuperSU flash successful in TWRP? Have you tried a second time?

It did flash successfully, I flashed the one it linked to UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.94.zip, I'm going to try the newest one BETA-SuperSU-v2.49.zip. I'll report back.
---------- Post added at 10:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:44 PM ----------
That worked, I would update your post with this link BETA-SuperSU-v2.49
Now if I can figure out how to remove the bootloader unlocked boot screen.
All root apps except Titanium Backup seem to be working for me.

Cool, I've updated the link. There's a thread discussing how to remove that boot screen in the q&a or general section. Not sure about your Titanium problem, if you have root access it should work.

I'm here if you have any questions..

the converting the system.new.dat files to system.img part failed (the program gave some error). Could you maybe provide the system.img you used?
Also, did your phone keep going off and on again during those 10 mins of first startup?

System.img is a big file to upload about 2.6gb ... your are install Python or not ?
My phone stuck on startup around 15 mins .. but it's working..
Please try both official rom.. for me my phone working only with the second one..

I've tried it with the other rom and it worked. Well, actually the converter didn't work. I actually had to use this:
https://github.com/xpirt/sdat2img
to create the system.img in ext4 format, then I had to use this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2749797
to create a flashable sparse chunk from the system.img.
the rest of the stuff like the boot, modem, cache etc flashed just fine. After flashing everything it booted perfectly.
Only problem is it's in demo mode and it requires the google account of the previous owner to log in before it unlocks. Since I'm only repairing it for someone I don't have that and can't get it out of demo mode for now.

Where give you this problem ?

When I try to update the phone, it automatically boots into twrp recovery and after rebooting it says update failed. I think it's trying to update via the recovery but it can't because it isn't the original recovery. Do you have the stock (original) recovery?
Btw, where did you get the EMEA_BGCS firmware from?

I did do all the erase commands, did you also erase the recovery though?

When you have the time, could you explain step by step what you did to convert the .dat files into the .img files? That's the only thing I did differently because it didn't work for me (yes python was installed)

I tchat with a technician of acer. He ask me to give the build number.... Yes but I can't give it that. My mobile is bricked! He advises to send my phone on SAV, but the phone is rooted!
Is there someone would be kind enough to give me the build number, please? :crying:
Or is it possible to get this number with adb?

На 4pda .ru есть тема "Обсуждение Acer Liquid Z330 Duo" страница 47, пост #930 в ней описан способ прошивки и сама прошивка 027 версии для разных языков. Телефон прошивается без проблем, проверено. Ссылку сайт не дает вставить. По этому ищите вручную.

Amazing work!

Windows 10 mobile --> android = Problems
Hello. I installed on the Z330 Windows 10 mobile. Help please go back to Android. Presumably change Disk Partitions. How is it to create one?

TWRP won't Install, it's always goes to stock Recovery instead TWRP. Help please thanks ~

I got the same result with #19, and my image version is Acer_AV0L0_T01_RV01RB10_TWN_GEN1.
The fastboot flash command seemed to pass, but I can not boot into TWRP. It still stayed in the old recovery mode.

There is a way to connect a lan usb adapter?

fantastic work like a charm, but used recovery download from the german one and worked rooted oukitel k6000 plus yea

i follow every step ( iread many times before i do it)
But Phone dosent boot anymore
I got only this Message on Display :
Orange State
yor device has been unlocked and cant ve trust
your device will reboot in 5 seconds
But Nothing happend
When i try to flash stock rom with splash tool i got da brom error with 60002
Its bricked???

Worked fine. I had to download files from other websites, but this procedure was good.
After reboot, su was working fine in /system. I wanted to reset the device completely, and typed "fastboot oem unlock"; I thought it would wipe data. Now, phone only boots on TWRP, and it seems like the /data partition is broken. TWRP can mount /system, but not /data. Either the device node is missig, or the partition is not formated properly.
Code:
# cat /etc/fstab
/dev/block/mmcblk0p6 /nvdata ext4 rw 0 0
/dev/block/mmcblk0p8 /protect_f ext4 rw 0 0
/dev/block/mmcblk0p9 /protect_s ext4 rw 0 0
/dev/block/mmcblk0p26 /system ext4 rw 0 0
/dev/block/mmcblk0p27 /cache ext4 rw 0 0
/dev/block/dm-0 /data ext4 rw 0 0
/external_sd auto rw 0 0
/usbotg auto rw 0 0
Losetup-a gives nothing.
I tried all possible commands (adb reboot to everything), and press volume up or down ... always get back in TWRP. Can not even reach the factory menu (the one where there are tests).
After reformating /data i can reboot to bootloader (fastboot), but still not /system.
Stock ROM was looking fine; I would like to be able to keep it. I would like to avoid flashing to an other ROM.

In short, I have TWRP and flashboot, but /system launches TWRP.
I don't know how to get a working system. SPFlashTool does not seem to work with TWRP installed. TWRP does not like OUKITEL_K6000_Plus_V6.0_20170519.rar. I can't find any ZIP ROM for TWRP. And when I try individual .img files from the RAR, TWRP can install them, but it does notproduce a working phone.
I fear something could be wrong with the partition table, or at least /data. /system contains many files and this looks good.
---------- Post added at 01:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:40 PM ----------
How I fixed it:
fastboot flash boot /tmp/OUKITEL_K6000_Plus_V6.0_20170519/recovery-verified.img (EDIT: this MUST be wrong, should be fastboot flash recovery /tmp/OUKITEL_K6000_Plus_V6.0_20170519/recovery-verified.img or fastboot flash boot /tmp/OUKITEL_K6000_Plus_V6.0_20170519/boot-verified.img )
then, perform again https://fvknl.pro/k6000-plus-v6-0-upgrade/
and now I have a working phone.

* Can't apply Android updates because of TWRP+SuperSU ?
Now that my phone works, and is rooted (i use the stock ROM version 6), may 19th, the system is telling me there are system updates to do. I have downloaded them (200MB), but after reboot, update fails, for obvious reasons: the update is designed to be installed by the stock recovery firmware; and that partition is overwritten by TWRP.
I was given a tip to work around this (wherer the img file is taken from the .rar archive of the stock ROM):
# fastboot boot /tmp/recovery-verified.img
and it worked: fastboot uploaded the recovery image to the phone, ran it, and that recovery firmware started to apply the update.
Started ... but failed before half of it ... PROBABLY because /system was HEAVILY modified while I asked TWRP to install UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.82-20170528234214.zip (read the installation log of SuperSU ... it alters many things).
How can I apply my android updates without erasing the whole phone each time I want to apply them ?
A: how to get the installation log, to see the failure point, and fix it manually
or
B: install the update manually without running the recovery, but extract the update file, and manually copy the new files at due place, one by one
or
C: how to undo installation of SuperSU, so that /system is in a state where the update can be applied.
I want to do this without erasing /data, or /system. I had this issue on my previous phone; since december 2014 I could not apply any Android update; so my phone is stuck to Android 4 from december 2014. There have been many changes and updates during 2015 and I could not apply them. After installing su, i had been able to perform two Android updates; updates broke after installing Xposed. I do not want my new K6000 to have the same issue; I want to find a way to apply updates. And I would like to keep the stock flavour because there are many features I would like to use (don't want to install misc ROMs).

Xposed for oukitel 6000plus root

I have tried many random things; I forgot the details of it. The versions are not a problem; there are links around to download old installers. Even if latest Xposed is for Android 25, archives will let you download v24.
It also depends when you rooted your phone, and which updates you did on your ROM before rooting. Depends if you are using ROM v6, v9, or v18 ...
Also, even if Xposed is installed, it's not working properly; in particular, I wanted Xposed to NotifyClean, and this plugin could not be installed on the Xposed I have (download goes fine, but plugin complains I need reboot to activate it). So, in short, Xposed is useless for me for now. Some other plugins have installed correctly (Taskbar).
The Xposed I have NOW is version 87 by PurifyOS. ATM, Android API 24.
But I said I tried many random things, so, maybe having tried to installed other variations of Xposed by other people was important to have this one installed. I remember that at some point, trying to install this one (purify) failed, and then, worked later ... forgot why.

Error
When you try to upload a TWRP, a message pops up:
"error: cannot load 'recovery-twrp31jemini.img'"
Bootloader should be unlocked. I see a buzz when switching on "yor device has been unlocked and cant ve trust
your device will reboot in 5 seconds"
Phone has a ROM v18
Application procedure on W10.
Does anyone find any solution?

You don't need to burn TWRP in FLASH to be able to use it. You just need to load and run it, this way:
fastboot boot recovery_TWRP-3.1.0.img
This way, if you have backup your whole phone, or downloaded and extracted a ROM, you can boot a stock recovery image:
fastboot boot /tmp/recovery-verified.img
According to your name jemini ... I thjink you have downlaoded the wrong TWRP. Boot and flash may fail if you grabbed a file for an other phone.
This should be ROM independant.
Since I rarely use TWRP, I now keep the stock recovery, and run TWRP from fastboot only when I need it; this way, stock recovery is available for Android updates.
Do you have links to ROM v18, so that I can download and install it directly, instead of having to burn v6, then update to v9 and v18 via update process ? I have issues with updates, and would like to flash directly using v18; but could not find a download link.

I got the phone today and unlocked it for root and everything.
After
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
the following showed up:
Code:
...
(bootloader) Start unlock flow
OKAY [ 14.791s]
finished. total time: 14.792s
Problem is now:

But it's not booting, just stuck at this screen.
Any help very much appreciated!

I was on V23 ROM which came per OTA.
EDIT-2:
I was able to flash it back to V23 with flashtool, but no root. Bootloader seems to be unlocked, the message still appears.

What do you say that this rom picks up on the oukitel k6000 plus ??

I need someone to help me my k6000 plus did not call any more after this procedure.
when I install the rom stock by flash sp this error appears
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0ByEkRDgYmbWtOXdpbngtcGJxQk0/view?usp=sharing

What do you want to do?
Flash the Stock ROM back with flashtool?
You should switch to "Download Only" and not "Firmware Upgrade".
Also the Download Agent was different when I flashed it, it was DA_PL.bin.

Sony Xperia XZ Unlock bootloader, TWRP and ROOT.

For rooting Xperia XZ, we need recovery and for recovery flashing the bootloader must be unlocked.
PREREQUISITES:
1. ADB/FASTBOOT. View attachment 4715074
2. Drivers for Sony Xperia XZ. View attachment Xperia_XZ_driver.zip
3. Backup all your data, Apps, Contacts & everything you need.
4. Charge ur device above 60% to avoid any shutdown during the process
UNLOCKING BOOTLOADER
Unlock Bootloader: Opens the door to System files of your device. This allows you to flash images onto the main system partitions of the phone, after unlocking you will lose the DRM keys and phone's warranty will be void, it will also factory reset your device.(backup is recommended)
1. Open Dialer.
2. Dial *#*#7378423#*#*
3. Press service info than configuration.
4. Check if “Bootloader Unlock” is yes under Rooting status.[If not then your device can not be unlocked]
5. Check what android you are running on. Go to Settings -> About Phone -> Android Version. If you have 6.x.x then goto step 9 but if you have 7.x.x then you have to downgrade to Marshmallow.
6. Download and install FlashTool from its official website.
7. Install the drivers for fastmode and for your device in the driver folder of the FlashTool. [C:>FLASHTOOL>drivers]
8. Download ftf for your device using XpiriFirm and flash it using flashtool.
How to flash ftf?
9. Goto settings>about phone >developers option and ensure that OEM Unlock and USB Debugging is on.
10. Goto Xperia BLU page and Choose Xperia XZ at the bottom of the page.
11. Enter your Email and you will receive a link in your mail. Follow the steps given by Sony.
12. BE CAREFUL and, from now on, DON’T ENABLE the MyXperia. It could hard brick your phone.
Now your phone is unlocked
We will now go over some other fixes.
FLASH ANDRO PLUS KERNEL.
This kernel will help your device cope up with some battery issues and it also has some DRM Fixes. To install it, follow the steps :
1. Download the kernel version supported for your buildnumber.{AndroPlus}
2. Unzip the downloaded file and paste them into your fastboot/adb directory.
3. Now Boot into Bootloader mode by turning the device off and pressing volume up then plug in the USB.
4. Run the command prompt where you pasted the extracted zip . Do this by shift+right click and selecting Open command prompt here.
5. Enter the command "fastboot flash boot boot.img"(without double quotation)
6. Unplug and reboot your device
FLASH CUSTOM RECOVERY [TWRP]
A custom recovery is flashed onto the recovery partition of the device and overwrites the stock recovery that exists by default(XZ doesn't have stock recovery). Custom recoveries bring lots of functionality and allows you to perform wipes, install flashable zips, create full backups of your NAND (Nandroid backup), and various other features. An unlocked bootloader is needed to install a custom recovery.
This process will provide your device a custom recovery (TWRP) This can be used to flash root script, ROM and custom kernels at anytime without PC.
1. Download the TWRP image file.
2. Paste it in your Fastboot directory and rename it as recovery.img
3. Open cmd in the folder where you pasted recovery.img
4. Enter the command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"(without double quotation)
5. Reboot your device.
FLASHING MAGISK
Now the final step. To root your device you just need to flash the Magisk zip.
1. Download the zip.
2. Paste it in your device.
3. Now boot into recovery by turning off and press power+volume down at the same time and release the power key after vibration.
4. If TWRP is decrypted use this guide.
5. Now select install and navigate to the pasted zip, swipe for flash.
6. Reboot and check if the Magisk app is installed on your device.

We will now go over some other fixes.
FLASH ANDRO PLUS KERNEL.

4. Run the command prompt where you pasted the extracted zip . Do this by shift+right click and selecting Open command prompt here.
5. Enter the command "fastboot flash boot boot.img"(without double quotation)
6. Unplug and reboot your device
FLASH CUSTOM RECOVERY [TWRP]
A custom recovery is flashed onto the recovery partition of the device and overwrites the stock recovery that exists by default(XZ doesn't have stock recovery). Custom recoveries bring lots of functionality and allows you to perform wipes, install flashable zips, create full backups of your NAND (Nandroid backup), and various other features. An unlocked bootloader is needed to install a custom recovery.
This process will provide your device a custom recovery (TWRP) This can be used to flash root script, ROM and custom kernels at anytime without PC.
1. Download the TWRP image file https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B4IlcVrKbV2qWF9QaDhPd2hONmc
2. Paste it in your Fastboot directory and rename it as recovery.img
3. Open cmd in the folder where you pasted recovery.img
4. Enter the command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"(without double quotation)
5. Reboot your device.
FLASH SUPER SU ZIP
Now the final step. To root your device you just need to flash the super su zip.
1. Download the zip. https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B4IlcVrKbV2qOExRekY3M3ZPVG8
2. Paste it in your device.
3. Now boot into recovery by turning off and press power+volume down at the same time and release the power key after vibration.
4. Now select install and navigate to the pasted zip, swipe for flash.
5. Reboot and check if the Super SU app is installed on your device.

Hello Amigos,
You can use this guide to install other recovery than TWRP also.(Other recoveries are listed in the guide itself)
Prerequisites:
Ubuntu/Debian/Ubuntu-Based Distros:
Open terminal
Type sudo apt install adb
Once that is installed.
Type sudo apt install fastboot.
Done.
Fedora:
Open terminal.
Type sudo dnf install android-tools.
Let it install and done.
OpenSUSE:
Download this official package from here according to your version :
https://software.opensuse.org/download.html?project=hardware&package=android-tools
(Use either one the add repository and install manually or grab binary packages directly options.)
Steps to install
Then go to your custom rom download thread and check the date of rom file (In this case derpfest) and choose the recovery version closest to the release date of your rom.
Download the latest platform-tools for linux from the Android developer site and extract the zip in an easily accessible folder
Download the recovery image file
Restart your device to fastboot mode
Method 1:
Using this adb command if you have USB debugging active on your device:
adb reboot bootloader
Method 2:
- Turn off your device
- After it has completely turned off, press and hold Vol - and the Power button at the same time until the word "FASTBOOT" comes out Method 3:- Turn off your device
- Press and hold Vol - button
- Connect the USB cable (previously connected to the PC) to the device and press and hold the button until the word "FASTBOOT" comes out
4. Connect your device to the PC
5. Open a terminal window in the folder where you extracted the binaries from the archive from step 1
Easy method: Open the folder, and open a terminal in the folder itself. Terminal will open a window directly in the folder location
6. Verify that your device is recognized by fastboot using this command:
fastboot devices
If your device has been detected (a serial number followed by the word fastboot), you can continue. Otherwise, check if the drivers are installed correctly, although if you used Mi Unlock and were able to unlock the device correctly on the PC you are using, you should not have problems with that.
7. Type this command in the terminal window, but don't press Enter yet, just type it and leave a space at the end:
fastboot flash recovery_
Don't write the "_". This only indicates the space you should leave at the end.
8. Now, drag the image file (yourrecoveryhere.img) to the terminal window and drop it above the window . This will make you copy your exact location for convenience.
fastboot flash recovery "home/user/location/to/your/file/yourrecoveryhere.img""
Quotation marks are only added if the entire location has spaces.
Otherwise, it is displayed without quotation marks.
9. Press Enter and wait a few seconds . Once it shows that it is successfully flashed hold the Vol Up + Power button , once the device restarts release the power button and keep the Vol Up button pressed , after a few seconds the TTWRP logo will show , release the Vol Up button now.
DONE! You've started perfectly in recovery
This guide applies to all recoveries:
NOTE:
If your rom mentions to use a specific recovery then use that instead
To flash shrp recovery you have to extract the .img from the zip file of the recovery that you downloaded ,then flash it in the same way as told above , make sure after booting in the recovery you flash the zip file of the shrp recovery from which you extracted the .img file in the recovery itself.
DO NOT USE ORANGE FOX RECOVERY ! It is deprecated and unmaintained so it wont be updated in future .
If mtp not working or device not getting detected as a portable device in any recovery then watch this guide here: GUIDE
Download Link
TWRP Download (If your rom mentions to use NSE TWRP then use the NSE TWRP with the closest android Version to your rom's android version or else if it doesn't specifically mention any twrp version then use the normal TWRP , the one without NSE in its name, with the closest android version to your rom's android version ):

Steps to install
First of all unlock bootloader of your device . Search net for more info.
After this install adb drivers from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...reborn-v2-0-adb-fastboot-and-drivers.3854109/
Choose skip install for adb and install google drivers.
Connect your device in fastboot mode to your pc.
Go into device manager , right click on unrecognized android device , choose update drivers , let me pick from a list of drivers , select adb drivers , android bootloader interface and click install.
Then go to your custom rom download thread and check the date of rom file (In this case derpfest) and choose the recovery version closest to the release date of your rom.
Make sure you have the bootloader unlocked before you start. There are many guides on the internet for that.
Download the latest platform-tools from the Android developer site and extract the zip in an easily accessible folder
Download the recovery image file
Restart your device to fastboot mode
Method 1:
Using this adb command if you have USB debugging active on your device:
adb reboot bootloader

Easy method: Open the folder, and without leaving it, type "cmd" in the address bar of the file explorer and press enter. Command promt will open a window directly in the folder location
6. Verify that your device is recognized by fastboot using this command:
fastboot devices
If your device has been detected (a serial number followed by the word fastboot), you can continue. Otherwise, check if the drivers are installed correctly, although if you used Mi Unlock and were able to unlock the device correctly on the PC you are using, you should not have problems with that.
7. Type this command in the cmd window, but don't press Enter yet, just type it and leave a space at the end:
fastboot flash recovery_
Don't write the "_". This only indicates the space you should leave at the end.
This is how it should look when you write it:
8. Now, drag the image file (yourrecoveryhere.img) to the command window and drop it above the window. This will make you copy your exact location for convenience.
- The result should be this:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery "C:\location\to\your\file\yourrecoveryhere.img"
Quotation marks are only added if the entire location has spaces.
Otherwise, it is displayed without quotation marks.
9. Press Enter and wait a few seconds . Once it shows that it is successfully flashed hold the Vol Up + Power button , once the device restarts release the power button and keep the Vol Up button pressed , after a few seconds the TWRP logo will show , release the Vol Up button now.

Go into device manager , right click on unrecognized android device , choose update drivers , let me pick from a list of drivers , select adb drivers and click install.
Then go to your custom rom download thread and check the date of rom file(In this case derpfest).
Check the date of file.
Then go to xiaomifirmwareupdater.com and select rom archive and select your device.
Then MIUI downloads page will appear. type fastboot in search and look for a MIUI global version released
as the same or very close to the Custom ROM date (in this case it is this)
Download the fastboot version according to the date.
Go into the stock rom folder and double click on flash_all.bat(all data will be lost) .
Or open cmd in the folder and type flash_all.bat in cmd and hit enter.(This method allows to look for errors)
A cmd window will popup with fastboot commands automatically and after complete flashing of rom will close automatically. (approx. 20-25 mins)
Let the device boot into MIUI.
Once it boots, power it off . Then press the vol down + power button until fastboot in orange letters appear.
Then follow the twrp flashing guide from here
Then flash the ROM according to the instructions.
NOTE:
Make sure to always extract and move the stock rom folder in root of C: drive (this helps avoid flashing errors)The path should look something like this:
C:\beryllium_global_images_YourVersionhere
Then flash the stock rom.
Clean Flashing a ROM:
I hope you have followed the entire guide above before doing this step.
Reboot to recovery.
Format data.
Flash ROM file.
Wipe Dalvik Cache.
Reboot and enjoy.
Everytime you do a clean flash, you must redo all the steps above.
If a rom does not include flashing instructions, it requires a clean flash.
If a rom mentions to wipe something in advanced wipe , then wipe ONLY that and nothing else.
If rom mentions clean flash and not wiping of anything else then dont be smart to wipe anything unecessary.
If your rom mentions to use a specific recovery then use that instead
Always flash magisk after the first boot of your rom
If mtp not working or device not getting detected as a portable device in any recovery then watch this guide here: GUIDE
Do not replace the recovery or try to update recovery that comes with roms. This can brick your device
Enjoy!
