hahaha it's valid for listed version only,
Why need to root? Asus is very particular.
Is this Zen3 Max better than Zen Max (ZC550KL)?
I think it bears mentioning that the above tools are only for the version of Zenfone 3 Max that has the MT6737T processor. It won't work with the MT6737M version, whose bootloader is locked. No solutions as of now, Jan 7, 2017

How can I tell the version? cpu z report says: MediaTek MT6735. Board MT6735

Can you port twrp for ID Firmware ?
@XN Logos or @BlackCorsar Can you Port the Recovery for Zenfone 3 Max based on ID Firmware with MT6735 processor ? if yes how do i get the scatter file then backup the original recovery.img ? because most of the problem for me is the scatter file and stock recovery.img

I think it's worth mentioning for prospective buyers, that there is no mention of the CPU on the box of the "Zenfone 3 Max (ASUS_X008D; ZC520TL)" were all there on the sticker of the box, as were "MT6737" and "ANDROID WW". Mine was bought a few hours ago, and manufactured 12/2016. According to the info in this thread the info on the sticker would mean that the phone had an unlockable bootloader, but the problem seems to be that the reference "MT6737" does not refer to the CPU, as Joey's "Root Checker" says that HARDWARE is "mt6735" which I understand means the device is not rootable (at present). The reference on the sticker would mean that the board is "MT6737". - It's a bit sad as I was hoping to be able to root it, to eventually put some mod rom on it. The bloatware is horrible even if I declined all that was possible, 3 Google apps and a bunch of wonderful Asus apps. It has a quality look and feel, however.
edit: It is still unclear to me what MT6737 (not MT6737M nor MT6737T) refers to. Thus what phone I actually bought. Google calls it "Asus Pegasus 3" which is shown nowhere else. "AIDA64" gives me hope by telling me that the phone is rooted, which hopefully means that the bootloader is unlocked. The phone is not yet rooted, however. XDA-Labs app tells me I have an Asus Eee Pad Transformer. Not quite. "Device Control [Next]" tells I have an (Device) "ASUS_X0008_1" and (Model) "ASUS_X0008_D", with Board MT6737 and CPU/Hardware MT6737. So, only Joey's Root Checker speaks of mt6735 (a big no-no in these circles) and none speaks of MT6737T, which would be success guaranteed. So I guess it's trial and error for me. Has anyone bricked his phone trying?

SystemUI is horrible. I got mine in the end, enjoyed, but not that much. I didn't risk to try to install the recovery. Now I moved to a Moto z play, rooted of course.

hi everyone. i have an asus zenfone 3 max 5.5" ZC553KL.i did not find any solution to root this phone. plz giude me. thanks
So does this cover the US version cause mine is in fact the same in everyway to the description and although cpuz doesn't say it, if I go on where's my android in Google it show to be the zc520tl but I notice on of the files to download shows WW and I know this isn't a we version, but as I said every other piece of information matches.

-How to install stock rom(If bricked or otherwise)(Will wipe all data)
- --Copy dload folder to the root of a micro-sd card
- --hold vol up+vol down+power to enter recovery(force mode) and wait for it to finish

-How to install
--Install in CWM
]What to do if you have bricked
YOU NEED ACCESS TO THE STOCK RECOVERY TO RESTORE(If you have CWM or TWRP installed you should know what to do).
If you never updated flash the stock rom with the install method above
http://d-h.st/49v
If you updated use this hacked one instead to downgrade to B132 completely(then simply do the ota update again)
http://d-h.st/6SO
If you screwed the stock recovery and your bootloader is locked but its still accessible via pow + vol down, try to get the bootloader unlock code and reflash the stock recovery once unlocked then reinstall the stock rom
If successful your device should be restored back to out of the box factory state.

Don't you know if there is any custom rom for this cellphone?
bootloader unlock tool
Ok.. so I got this device super cheap to jump on the unlimited lte for $50 deal metropcs had going. Tried downloading the chinese tool you had listed above, but its chalked full of malware unfortunately. Any other unlock options other than emailing huawei directly [[email protected]] and requesting [which I read on a like thread at android forums]? Did that a week ago with no response. I'm a bit worried this device is not supported anymore because of its age. Could be. Any input/suggestions you might have though are appreciated.

devhost kinda sucks now(stopped using them but the old links are still up) and its hard to download from them because of fake link(with adware) next to a real one, anyway the monkeytool was blocked buy huawei over and over until the maker of the software gave up and stopped releasing new versions for it a good while back so I'm gonna remove it.
for unlocking the bootloader I would try to send another email and put URGENT on it, that sped it up for me(on my first vitria) used the tool for another one.
there might be other methods to get the code like the script hack here http://forum.xda-developers.com/and...tory-image-t3008551/post59408408#post59408408 , I tried it but couldn't get it to work though.
personally I don't really use my vitria anymore though but hopefully someone else with chime in and post another method.
I probably clicked the wrong d/l link... over a week w/ no reply from Huawei.. perhaps you could relink the monkey tool & I'll try to be smarter
Called Huawei today 888-5HUAWEI and they gave me same instructions. I then told them it had been over a week with no response; to which, they said if the phone is no longer supported, there will be no response. A nice lil reply of this device is no longer supported would have solved this riddle for me a week ago. But apparently, this method no longer works for this device [emailing official support]; so, I'm gonna have to try some alternative method(s).
Update
I tried to update but I keep getting install abort check software version and I never seen a file Ending in msp.7z is that the right ending
you have to extract that file 7z is a 7zip archive.
I'm so confused, if I have android 6.0.1, and they made it so you can't unlock bootloader on this version, but you need bootloader to downgrade to Lollipop to be able to unlock bootloader, how does that work??? I'm just trying to root it, but to do that I need bootloader, so I need to know either how I unlock bootloader on 6.0.1 (MM) or how to downgrade to Lollipop without the bootloader. Please help this has been driving me literally insane for weeks.

Use Panasonic eluga software to downgrade to 5.0.2....then unlock bootloader, install twrp and install marshmallow rom from the android development portion of the idol 3 forums. I recommend the marshmallow from @The Marionette.

So on AndroidMTK I found a ton of different softwares, I see one called "Parasonic Eluga Switch Stock Rom" and it says 5.0, I downloaded that, launched EB-90S55EWLv1009.exe, but when I try to downgrade my phone it gets stuck at 2% then gives me the error code in the picture below. I turn the phone off, then plug it in to my computer, then when it shows up I click download, am I doing something wrong? I have also tried manually putting it intodownload mode then clicking download but it still does the same thing. Do I have to change something in the settings? Help please.

As I've never used the Panasonic software myself and I use Linux, not windows I'm not the best person to assist. Hopefully someone else can. You can always re-run alcatel's mobile Q software (which I think requires you to be in download mode) to restore your device back to marshmallow stock. There have been some posts with instructions..you need to do some searches within the q&a and android development sections of idol3.
I have the same problem bro, but when i tried the 2 days ago it worked for me but i failed (the software stuck in 45-5X % and get an error, but no worry thats normal that would mean that worked perfectly), but the thing is that i unplugged the device before i had the error (we need to wait at least 20-30 min) and my device is now softbricked i guess, i tried again but i get the same error as you. Someone adviced me to try to use this software to go back to lolipop (without unblocked unlocker) so after i'll use Panasonic thing, i'll try after, there is the software : http://pic1.aotcloud.com/tclportal/20160315/06/33/48/Mobile_Upgrade_Q_5.0.0_Setup.exe (you need to power off the device before plugged it i guess)

With that program it again failed at 2% at ~3 minutes
1- install Mobile upgrade Q 5.0.6 (can be found on my g drive)
2-install the drivers inside the mobile upgrade q folder
3-reboot computer
4-turn the phone off
5-launch the mobile upgrade q 5.0.6
6-click on the "upgrade phone" icon
7-connect the phone to the computer (best with the original alcatel cable)
8-should be sucessfull
or do the same with "panasonic eluga switch EB-90S55EWLv1009.exe," instead of Mobile upgrade Q.
It didn't worked for me, i guess my friend phone is hardbricked ...
Have to see how the device is shown on windows when connected..

It still does the exact same thing, goes to 2% then says the same error as above.
Many people are getting 601->502 using mobile upgrade q or panasonic eluga switch app, so then you do something wrong, because as you posted the mobile upgrade q screen (the one with the red error message) it tells you that you are not in download mode, so you either:
-conected the device before you launch the upgrade process
-your device is not turned off
-your drivers are not installed.
If all above is not right, then you have to stick with the 6.0.1 and wait for root method.

This thread is for the MediaPad M3 Lite 10 LTE - Tablet from Huawei.
In my case, I´m looking for a C-ROM and C-Recov (e.a. RR, Mokee, TWRP) for the
Huawei MediaPad M3 Lite 10 LTE (BAH-L09) with Android 7.0 and EMUI 5.1
Since it´s quite new on the market it´s atm hard to find anything bout a C-ROM or even a C-recovery.
discoveries
advises
questions
tipps / tricks
productive discussions
solutions
are much appreciated.
Detailed device Informations:
Nobody knows any thread about this tablet??
Still searching for a root-solution.
So it's possible to read out the firmware with Infinity Box CM2 but haven't found a working "Non-dongle"-version (Loader).
Some days, there will be a root solution.
It just takes time and will be posted in here.

I much appreciate the offer but what could u do if u haven´t the device or do u own it ?
Since my CM2-Infinity-box doesn´t work (usually I work with Miracle Box but it´s not compatible ...well the Tablet has to be rooted to read the firmware..), and literally tried all rooting-apps and progs, this device is really stubborn!
I own this device, thats what i told you

Very well. ?
Actually, just the stock-recovery is needed to finally start to compile it. Have u been able to extract the recovery or maybe the whole ROM ? ?

Well, to bad but I guessed so, since this device is atm not rootable. :/
I tried every single Flash-Box like MB, Infinity, Aladdin, Falcon etc pp.. any Rooting-App (APK & PC- based), almost a dozen flash-tools like ADT, AOS-flasher, Ultimate Backup-tool etc...and several command prompts via ADB&Fastboot.
Really Nothing helped to get a nandroid- or even a dumb ROM. From which I could extract the stock recovery.
Nevermind, I will try alil more with Holo- & Heliumbackup, which surely wont work but who knows, rite ??
I'm patient and as soon as I've found a solution I'll share it here immediately.
As any other user is welcome to do so, too.
I´ve managed to extract the stock-recovery via an OTA-update which came from Firmware Finder from Team MT.
U ´ll find the recovery on G-Drive. The "oldRECOVERY.img" is the extracted stock-recovery from the original BAH-L09C100B018 firmware!
So, since I´ve updated the Tablet, the only "RECOVERY.img"-named file is from the newest firmware which is L09C100B021!
If u wanna update to ...021, via the Firmware Finder-App, u need

Yup, unlocked the BL from day 1. It´s the same procedure for all HUAWEI devices.
Just go here, login or register, confirm the unlocking agreement and put all device infos into the blank fields.
U´ll immediatley get an unlock code, which u have to enter via fastboot command prompts (recommended):
fastboot devices
fastboot oem unlock-go 1234567890123456 <- (this number is an example, u´ll have to put ur code there instead)
fastboot reboot
From now on an unlocked bootloader message will appear every time u start ur device. Just press power shortly to boot then. (It´s also written in the text aswell)
P.S.
Before u try to unlock: Don´t forget to enable USB-debugging in the Engineertool (tap 7 times on "build" in the settings-menue) and "allow OEM unlocking".

Ok cheers, I looked on the emui site and was nothing under their tablet menu only phones on the unlock bootloader page, on Nexus you just enable usb-debugging and click the OEM unlock in settings and fastboot flashing unlock in terminal. Sony uses a custom tool and HTC via their website I had a few phones in the past and built roms etc this my first Huawei device apart from my Nexus 6p Huawei help build with Google. I take it this device no official forum atm only the Kirin version.
Ya, HUAWEI has a quite faire unlock policy.
Important: There's an unlock bug sometimes. Be sure to have the Original firmware on ur device. (No updated ROM)
Have fun.

It's on latest official that came with device, I take it there is no twrp or anything out for this device ATM?
Just check a view posts above. I've described how to get the newest FW.
So if the factory ROM-version is installed, unlock the BL and after then update ur ROM. Jfi.
BTW_
Atm there's no custom recovery available for the M3 Lite Versions. U have to compile it by urself or make a request on Hovatek.com

I'm not bothered about updating the firmware ATM more so custom recovery but will look into it after my holiday.
I have requested official forum for this device and looks to be accepted so hopefully get some development going for this device soon...
There seems to be no way to retrieve the unlock code for Wifi-only tablets from the official Huawei site, as it demands the IMEI which is obviously missing.
I have contacted Huawei support with the product ID and serial number of my M3 Lite 10. One day later I have received the unlock code. I think that having been polite has helped

Storage question
Hello,
First of all: sorry, if the question is 'noobish', but as a matter of fact I am noob as far as android is concerned
I just bought this tablet for my son (LTE version), and I was quite surprised to find out that I can't move the installed applications to SD card.
Are there any hints and tips on how to take advantage of the big SD card, so my son's game data would not have to be stored in the internal memory?
The only default option is to change the memory from internal to SD, after the tablet restarts. But I assume it uses then only the SD card, and I am looking for a solution I remember from Samsung phone, where I could choose certain apps to move from internal memory to SD.
Another question, just by the way, is following: when I install an apk file from the SD card, during the installation process every few seconds I get a pop-up saying the application is not responding (although the installation is in progress). Any way to disable those annoying pop-ups?
I'd appreciate any feedback
So what do you folks think of the new Lenovo Smart Tab P10? I just ordered one because my LG G Pad 8.3 v500 is very long in the tooth and I finally just got tired of waiting for a good spec tablet with plenty of storage and memory to show up. It only has a midrange Snapdragon 450, but the storage a memory make up for that.

I was looking for a owners manual to read and found this. Looks like replacing the battery in the future won't be too bad. I'll cross my fingers and hope that the bootloader is unlockable.

I received my Lenovo Smart Tab P10 (TB-X705F) a few weeks ago. It's a nice tablet with good features. The only thing I'm struggling with is unlocking the bootloader. The developer options have the "Allow OEM unlocking" setting and I've enabled it, but no unlock commands are recognized when in fastboot mode. The error is "FAILED (Unknown command)". I've tried "fastboot oem unlock", "fastboot oem unlock-go", "fastboot flashing unlock" etc.
I hope Amazon didn't force Lenovo to lock down the bootloader because it has Alexa poopoo installed. I figure there will be a Chinese exploit for this and the LTE version eventually.
I couldn't stand Alexa and disabled it. I'm looking forward to TWRP so I can make a backup, root and install Adaway.
Same here....
Hey guys, I got the same issue, all unlock commands are unknown. Has anybody got a fix yet?
I had no problem with the bootloader, Tb-x704v. Install most recent https://devsjournal.com/download-minimal-adb-fastboot-tool.html it solved some of my issues.
I bought one a few weeks ago... No dock though. Seems ok, their os is pretty slim though, can't wait for some development.
it is project treble supported but still no lineage 16.1 (pie)? for lenovo tab P10 TB-X705L
Hi, you should be able to unlock bootloader with this command:
fastboot oem enable-unlock-once
TWRP
I installed the TWRP Builder app, but it couldn't extract the recovery image and build.prop file because I don't have root. Do you think that a TWRP recovery can be made from the older firmware in my first post? It has a recovery.img file, but couldn't find a build.prop file.

How do we get this device in to it's only device thread? When you search for it through "my device" in the xda app it doesn't come back with a correct result. Maybe it will also get more community development by doing that.
Any hope lineage 16.1 for lenovo tab P10
Hello all,
Any developments on this device. What are the chances of getting rid of the echo features and make it a Google assistant instead?
Can anybody share the alexa show mode apk? I'm downloading the firmware but it is taking ages
Any one been able to install the Google Now Launcher in this tablet? The Play Store message says that it's incompatible with this tablet.
Thanks for any assistance!
Did anybody try to unlock the bootloader in Linux?
I successfully rooted Z3 Play in Linux while it didn't work in Windows
Can anybody find full ROM in lollinet (where I can find Moto/Lenovo ROM)?
I've tried installing the stock images that are posted and keep getting a signature error using the recovery. I noticed that the image doesn't have a system.img but rather system_1.img-system_32.img. Is there a way to package the system files to install the new system? Having an issue with the OTA and it keeps wanting to install the PRN rather than the ROW image. Any thoughts?
Anyone successfully root this as of yet? Not seeing any TWRP for it or an approach.
I today received an update to Android 9 on my tablet. Was kind of surprised. Anyone else can confirm?
Update contains new "Le Tab UI".
so there is no way to root this tablet?

My tablet is rooted. I found a root solution a little while back, but I haven't posted it yet because it's not very user-friendly. Basically it requires that you do a fresh install of Oreo and it gets bricked on an OTA update. If you're interested in getting it rooted like that then send me a private message. If there's enough interest I'll create a root thread. I consider myself quite capable with Android but not a full expert. I'm really hurting without custom recovery and without a fastboot OEM unlock that works longer than once. That temporary unlock command successfully allows me to swap out the bootloader image but upon reboot it doesn't like the new image as it asks for a password that must be part of the bootloader security because it won't accept any passwords that I have set. Perhaps with a root thread we could all contribute to getting this working. I have two of P10s now so I'm able to test on my spare, but I don't have unlimited time to devote to this.
I know that a lot of people would be excited to get root on this device. I assure you sure you that it is possible. However, I don't want to start a thread with a solution that will force people to do a fresh install of Oreo and possibly lose data. And of course there's the problem with the OTA update which will brick the device. Of course everyone understands that they modify their device at their own risk, but I consider my root solution still a bit dirty and I was hoping at least to get it to accept OTA updates before I wrote up a root guide. I really think that if we could get a permanent bootloader unlock instead of a temporary unlock that we could get past this problem. And if somebody is out there that could make a TWRP image for this device, I think we would be golden as we could do a standard magisk root install via custom recovery.

Updated with LMSA with no issues, only be warned that everything is deleted and you start from scratch. I had my bootloader unlocked, this was kept. But I am unable to root it as I did with Android 10. Patching boot.img with Magisk and I get bootloop to fastboot after flashing it. Only way to continue as of now was to flash the boot.img that came with the new firmware.

So may I ask if you bought your 606f from China or abroad?
Since mine is a Chinese one, everytime I flash 0805/0906 it ends with *system and hardware not compatible* error. (the same both BL locked and unlocked)
I wonder if this new ROW rom fixes this issue.
Thanks.
i tried but the link doesn't work
EDIT: i tried from rescue and smartaassistant, and i found the update

Then that's not a problem.
Can you guide me how to unpack the img files? I tried several but none of those works correctly.
I just want to do some research on what kind of restrictions lenovo does to the rom files.
Thank you.

Sorry, I am not sure if it is what you are looking for, but I downloaded the new ROM with LMSA and I do have all the IMG files in the download directory. I do not know if you can do the same not having the exact same tablet model.

Still a "NO". It's the same: "system and hardware not compatible".
So I flash back to 0520.
I do hope I could spare some time to unpack those imgs to have a check on some specific files next week.
Just be busy all the time with my work...
Engineers from Lenovo China give me no useful answers. I think I can only count on myself.
I tried update to 210923 via LMSA, but not boot.
Then I tried again with qpst 2.7.496, it boot up and get a minor update to 0925.
Still lost serial number.
Que??

It's because your device is Region locked. Within this XDA there is a forum on how to region unlock ur device. You have to use QCN file to change it.
Mine won't update because of region lock and now it's working perfectly
Hey guys, do you know if we still have widevine L1 after updating this ROM with locked bootloader?
