I tried it but it didn't work. twrp is installed but my phone doesn't boot into the system anymore. When I reboot it goes back to Twrp and then the touchscreen doesn't work anymore. I have to connect an USB-mouse. But it still doesn't boot.
When I try to flash or wipe sth it says "unable to mount"
I had to flash the original software again with SP Flash Tools
No flash No verity encrypt to Disable boot verification

So i used your TWRP Recovery, normally it should work and it does but why is my data shown as 0.
Thank you too. Please help
where is the scatter file?

no Scatter included use Fastboot, or You can take scatter from ROM.
Ok but where is the recovery image file to flash via SP Flash Tools? I only see an exe-file saying "flash recovery" and a 12.6MB file called "rk" but it's shown me as a mp4-file
it worked!!! Thank yoU!! @gasperoni, just start "Flash Recovery.exe" and do what is written in the window. It's really easy.
i have include a Script which have ability to unlock bootloader and then flash twrp, if you flash with SP flash tool your Device not bootup because bootloader is Loacked. so Simply use Given Instruction Not SP flash.
any custom ROM
non yet
hm..i install twrp with your "flash recovery.exe", my phone reboots, i have to press "volume up" to unlock my bootloader. then trwp starts.
until here everything works fine. But when i am installing Superuser and restart my phone, it writes sth like "orange mode, your phone is untrusted" and just boots into twrp, touchscreen isnt working. So i have to flash it again, but i didnt achieve twrp of course :S

Same issue for me.
I tried twice to install the recovery with the .exe file. Both times I bricked the phone. Why?

Same result here. But how did you get the factory rom to flash on the phone? I first got some checksum error and had to find a checksum generator and now the silly multiport flash software says:
" Warning maybe error as follows: 1 com port number repetitive or invalid 2 brom and preloader have the same comport number! Please modify them in INI file or scan again."
I think i did everything correctly (installed the drivers and stuff as it says on the ulefone download page) but i haven't flashed any mediatek devices in a long time and i would be very thankful if someone can tell me what i'm doing wrong. I don't mind it getting bricked as i know that is always a risk with mediatek, but i do need to be able to flash the stock rom.

I had also issues using the flash tool provided on the Ulefone website, the same as you say (with the checksum). None of checksum-generating software worked for me, so I was searching long for an alternative and found this flash tool: https://spflashtool.com/. Using this tool, flashing worked for me perfectly even without having to bother with checksums.
Good luck!

Thank you very much for this! That tool works flawlessly unlike the ulefone garbage.
On another note... anyone know if there is source code for the power 2 to be found somewhere or did the dev just port another recovery somehow? I tried a while back just porting twrp by swapping files but i couldn't get the image to repack with the kitchen tool so i gave up.

So I'm using Elephone P6000 (Aka Just5 Blaster2 as named in Latvia).
I searched many places couldn't find anything.
Tried to open bootloader via fastboot but "fastboot oem unlock" or "fastboot flashing unlock" doesn't work and shows me error
"FAILED (Remote: Unknown command)" But the second option was mentioned on help. Also I didn' t found oem unlock option in dev options.
So post any ways how to root.
Ps My android version is 5.0
Just install SuperSU from Play Store and let it update binary. The phone i factory bootloader unlocked and prerooted.
It can't download su binary because of android 5
It has nothing to do with lollipop, how do you try to do that?

It shows: There is no su binary and SuperSU cannot install it. This is a problem!
If you just installed android 5 you have to re root.
It said something like that.
Ok, I didn't have that problem.
Have you tried with Kingroot.

Yes, I tried every app. Can't you tell how to do it manually or at least help me with the problem I can; t flash custom recovery.
It shows that I have flashed it but I still have old stock recovery. I used fastboot.
Use SP Flash Tools to flash custom recovery. You can find TWRP recovery on needrom site, and you have a lot of tutorials how to use SP Flash Tools.
It doesn't work. I turned phone off and on and still just stands still and does nothing.
In which mode I have to turn phone on?
I used stock ROM text and carliv recovery to flash.
To use Flash Tool you need to turn of the phone, remove the battery, press download button in tool and then connect your phone, not turning it on. I got an error trying to flash recovery with Flash Tool, but it's not a real error, phone simply disconnected from PC before it checks if the flash was successful.
Nothings happens Just shows "Super Phone flash tool(Runtime trace mode).
I did everything I need, connected via usb with no battery in phone.
I have phone normal and adb drivers. Meh.
Have you even red some tutorial how to use SP Flash Tool?
Try with tool and tutorial from here:
http://bbs.elephone.hk/thread-1037-1-1.html#.Vryb6fIrK01
As I told you, you need to start Flash tool, select rom to flash (scatter file), in your case to deselect all partitions, select custom recovery, click on download and then to connect phone to PC. It's all written in tutorial, all you need is to read.
I have the same problem,this phone seems to be unrootable and without the possibility to flash a costum recovery,help me please,MMI TEST on the device appears everytime I reboot phone and I launch an app so I want costum recovery to manually root and remove this system app,HELP PLEASE.
Custom recovery flashing and rooting your phone are advanced user activities, if you can't learn how to use SP Flash Tool you shouldn't try to do it.

What Windows do you use?
You need stock rom because of the scatter file.
Update/Solved:
Currently the only way for people who deleted their OS completely in this phone model X00HD/ZC520KL is to restore the official firmware.
You can ask for a backup recovery folder in XDA Forums ( https://forum.xda-developers.com/zen...help?nocache=1) if you do not have made a backup with people who have the same phone model. You must have TWRP previously installed and bootloader unlocked. Flashing the official firmware via .zip files is not working with twrp, you must restore the folder. After having the files needed, your recovery folder will not appear on the RESTORE section so follow this simple tutorial to make it appear there (https://youtu.be/trlG3ZxwQxI)
This method will bring your phone back to life if you're stuck in TWRP Recovery Mode with "No OS installed". This method is working and it's the only way for you to use your phone again until developers create custom ROM's for this model.

Hello, I tried your solution. It did not work. I keep getting Error Number 7 when flashing the ROM. Plus I also tried to delete the assert line in the uptader-script of the ROM you gave me the link after learning from a tutorial how to solve Error Number 7 and after that I got another error: Invalid Zip Format. I don't know what do to more, is this ROM link really compatible with my device? I need urgent help.

Thanks for the attention. I already tried tons of ROM's including the official one for this phone. I keep getting Error Number 7. Sometimes when I force an installation editing the uptader-script file it seems everything is working fine, but at the end of the ROM flash process the phone reboots and goes back to TWRP like everything had never happened. I have never seen a successful feedback, just the "Failed" message or a unexpected reboot that goes back to TWRP.
I don't know what do you mean with unlocking bootloader as I have no ROM installed and always I turn ON my phone I go to TWRP automatically. My TWRP version is 3.1.1.

Not working, as I said before, I've already tried to solve this Error. Either 3 things happen: the installation seems to be running good but at some point the device automatically reboots to it's original condition of TWRP (Liniage OS flash and after editing the file to solve Error Number 7 + I get a message saying "Invalid zip format" (Official Asus Firmware flash after editing the file to solve Error Number 7) + I get Error Number 7.
Backup ROM
Hi, I have the same model and I have TWRP as well. I think I can make backup of my ROM an upload it so you can install it on your phone, would that work for you?

Hello @pantarz, yes, give me your backup ROM you have in your phone, it should work on mine. I'm really thankful to see people like this these days. Just need the .zip file for the ROM. Thanks in advance.

Hi @ANDROIDMASTER67, @pantarz I also break my phone ZC520KL ( X00HD ). It shows "no os installed" and "error 7" when I try to install a ROM.
Can you please help me fix my phone? If there is a backup that I can get please let me know.
Many thanks in advance.
I've managed to fix it by doing the following:
Copy the original recovery from a firmware package.
I could find one in the file https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=11050483647474829889, location /Asus_Zenfone_4_Max_ZC520KL_20171225/Firmware/recovery.img
Load default recovery
fastboot flash recovery recovery/original-recovery.img
Restart to bootloader
fastboot reboot bootloader
Load flashboot mode
choose the option "update using adb"
ensure that adb can locate devices with
adb devices
load firmware with
adb sideload UL-ASUS_X00HD-WW-14.2016.1805.374-user.zip ( try download from: https://www.beritahuaja.com/2018/11/download-stock-rom-asus-zenfone-4-max-zc520kl.html )

Actually oppo preloader shows for some time in pc and after that it goes away and hence it is not letting the miracle thunder work properly (i guess)
when my phone was working (booting in coloros 6, then also oppo preloader was doing the same thing and after a few seconds my battery would start charging), now i can't see anything on screen as it's bricked now.
Preloader doesn't even work with SP Flash Tools also.
EDIT : I have tried almost everything i knew, drivers manager add legacy option etc.
If someone could help me get out of this problem, i would really be grateful.
Brick Reason : Flashed TWRP but used fastboot command to boot into that : (
PLEASE HELP SOMEONE

Which recovery are you in? Is it Stock or Custom?
If u have stock first wipe data and then flash boot.img or ozip file (stock ROM).
If u have custom recovery then you need to flash stock recovery + stock ROM.

If recovery and fastboot are inaccessible means you need to visit service center.
When trying to connect realme 1 to miracle it showing usb device not connected, how to solve this? Drivers are installed

Yes. Do remember you need both fastboot and recovery to be working, so you can flash Stock Recovery (only if you have TWRP installed).
If you have stock recovery installed then download stock rom from official Realme site and place it in the Sdcard (otg wont help). Enter into recovery and update/install the ozip.
If your phone is completely dead then above method wont help and you have to follow another one.
Note: If your device is rooted then installing (from stock recovery) stock rom fails. At this time flash TWRP from fastboot then flash zip file (convert stock rom from ozip to zip).

Download stock recovery.
Enter fastboot mode using Power + Volume Down. If that does not work use other combinations.
Now flash stock recovery.
Enter recovery using
Code:
fastboot oem reboot-recovery
Install ozip.

Bugs:
UI Restarts every time you go landscape and go back to portrait
Can't open camera
UI Restarts every time you scroll on playstore or anywhere with lots of images
Phone lags, actually no, it restarts all the damn time
NOTES:
@Kraitos was looking for boot.img files so i decided to do a little digging too. I saw in a post somewhere that you need vbmeta.img and a patched (via magisk) boot.img from the device itself.
The "vbmeta.img" I used here was from a Realme 5. I figured all they 'kinda' looked the same plus I don't know if the file is also patched. I tried patching it in magisk but it didn't work, so I just grabbed a (patched?) vbmeta.img (from Realme 5 somewhere in the internet) and used that for our device which is, Rmx2040 (6i)
I grabbed the boot.img from the official ozip file in realme's site (From version A.27, I couldn't find any boot.img for A.31 because they haven't updated the link in the site yet). I opened it up, looked for it, grabbed it and patched it using magisk. Thankfully, it worked.
I used both the vbmeta.img (again, idk if it's patched) and the patched boot.img to root my device. I doubted it too, I thought it'll give me a bootloop or something, but it didn't.
If you want to do it, here are the steps:
Unlock your bootloader. Go here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/realme-6i/how-to/unlocking-bootloader-realme-6i-rmx-2040-t4174255
Credits to @Kraitos for this awesome guide on how to unlock Rmx2040's bootloader.
If you're done unlocking your bootloader, download these files:
boot.img:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1D7S9JGwDusyL6hJ6pWrFRBLo_9DdQLGR/view?usp=sharing
vbmeta.img:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Do2SfGI_Tp2jERcO77Vh1vEfjiQ6Xxe9/view?usp=sharing
Portable adb fastboot (if you don't have it yet):
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1m78UIsabMQlCvNIIv2e4xI19pN9b1otw/view?usp=sharing
Put all in one folder, it doesn't have to have a name.
Extract the zip file (minimal_adb_fastboot_1.4.3_portable.zip)
*Your folders should have the ff:
adb.exe
AdbWinApi.dll
AdbWinUsbApi.dll
boot.img
cmd-here.exe
Disclaimer.txt
fastboot.exe
vbmeta.img
Enable USB debugging in your phone.
Connect your phone to your pc.
Double click "cmd-here.exe"
Type the following in CMD:
adb reboot bootloader
If it displays a text in the middle, type "fastboot devices" on cmd. You SHOULD your phone's code there. If it doesn't display anything, replug the type C cable on your phone and type it again, do this until it shows.
Copy this and paste it in CMD:
fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img --disable-verity --disable-verification
Then press enter.
once it's done, copy this next:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Then press enter.
Reboot your device by typing this in CMD:
fastboot reboot
If you've made it this far, you should install the latest Magisk Manager after you've unlocked the bootloader though. Or do it last, whatever you prefer works.
Viola, now you have an unstable phone.
I'm gonna try locking my bootloader later to flash the A.27 ozip later, I hope going back to "stock and unrooted" fixes the bugs I've experienced :|
I don't really know anything besides trying stuff out, I just wanted to see if it'll work properly with root. If anyone here noticed that I've done something wrong, please do tell me. I wanna try all the methods we can think of just so we can root this device.
Have a wonderful day y'all
Edit:
Everything went bad. I locked the bootloader because I needed access to stock recovery. It gave me a "red state"
I don't know how to fix this problem :|
Awesome guide and thanks for mention you know some people do that if you pay them to unlock bootloader and rooting device so this thread will be a savior to alot of people , I'll do testing in a couple of days asap i get a laptop relocking bootloader is mostly the same when you unlocked bootloader so it should be easy to flash stock again
Alright, so, quick update:
I tried to lock the bootloader while it had root (in my case, magisk). When I did, the phone went to "red state" (For those who don't know, it's basically bootloop wherein the phone never goes to recovery no matter what you do. Not even in stock).
Now, my phone is broken. It bootloops. I don't know what to do with this problem except going to a service center and have this fixed. Does anyone know how much it costs for reflashing stock rom to realme devices?
Sidenote: I tried the volume + down/up method to get into fastboot mode or stock recovery, but it never works. And honestly speaking, I don't think it will. To get into fastboot mode the bootloader needs to be unlocked, so that's crossed out AND I can't get into stock recovery because the phone restarts every 5 seconds because of that pesky "red state" thingy at the start.

The problems you faced after rooting the phone is because you flashed an older version of boot.img thats why it wasn't working with latest rom and caused instability in system... And the second problem that you faced that red state thing..!! it was your fault you shouldn't relocked the bootloader with a patched boot img.. and if you wanted to boot the stock recovery you should have used the command " fastboot reboot recovery " this command in fastboot mode reboots the phone to recovery mode... Well i want to know what happend did your phone survived??

Thanks for the information, I now understand that I should use the same boot.img. It was worth the experiment tho, I just hoped I did it better so I wouldn't have to go through this process again.
My phone is here with me. It's still stuck on red state and I haven't went to a service center to have it fixed yet. I went to Hovatek to look for some ways to fix this problem. I tried using miracle box and the SP flashtool method but the latter had problems with the scatter file and the former didn't get past this:
Waiting for USB Port...
Set OPPO PreLoader USB VCOM (Android) (COM4)
>>Please Hold "ON" to connect with the phone...
I also looked a little bit more into it and I found out that I can use the OFP file and the flasher application here: https://firmwarex.net/realme-6i-rmx2040-official-firmware/
But unfortunately, I can't use the application because it's asking for an OPPO ID or something. Either I bring this phone to a service center or I'll just let it be this way until I decide to sell it somewhere. I hope I'll be able to fix this on my own tho, at least, someday.

Hey buddy i just rooted my realme 6i (RMX 2040) on build number A.37... everything went smooth and working flawlessly.... No system instabilities at all... Btw sorry to hear that your phone is still in brick state.. actually thing is oppo does not allow the users to flash stock rom on locked bl devices that why flasher tool asks for oppo authorized account in order to flash the device... And about SP flash tool.. it will not work either we have to wait for the patched rom that can be flashed on locked devices with sp flash tool

Woah, is it true you've rooted it? How did you manage to pull it off? Is it similar to what I did except with different files?
Oh and yeah, I think I'll need to bring this to an authorized service center to have it fixed. In your currency, how much do you think it costs to flash the stock rom back to the phone? This has been a question that's been bothering me for months. I do hope it isn't pricey, because if it is then maybe I'll never have it fixed.

Yeah the procedure was the same as yours... I unlocked the bootloader i was on A27 build... And i downloaded the latest ozip file from the official site and i opened it up in file manager it asked if i want to update the software i clicked yes.. and it rebooted to stock recovery and started updating the device.. after successful update i opend up the ozip file by renaming it to .zip and extracted the boot.img and vbmeta.img. i patched the boot.img with latest magisk manager and tha than flashed those files in fastboot mode... With same commands that u used... And everything went well and its all good and rooted no problem at all..
And yeah the service center thing.. if its the software issue than the charge around 1.5 to 2k rupees in my country...which is around 9.34 to12.4 US dollars..

I don't mean to be rude but, can you make a thread for that? Some rmx 2040 owners want to root their device and I think i just gave them a recipe for disaster.

Can I restore it if I have the Scatter file and the Stock ROM?
Thanks in advance
MediaTek devices have preloader mode, EDL mode is for Qualcomm
Not sure what device you're talking about, but try to look for an "unbrick tool" or an "unbrick guide"
I "semi hard-bricked" my OnePlus 3T a while ago, and there was this leaked Qualcomm tool that you could use to flash the factory ROM the phone came with from Download Mode.

Does the fact that I can communicate and flash via Download Mode (SP Flash Tool) mean that I didn't lose my preloader? I'm kinda stuck trying to flash the Stock ROM (demanding verified image files, even though I'm using the original firmware for flashing... probably)

I've also had issues previously with trying to flash stock images on Samsung phones. Not sure if you have country-specific images, if you do, try giving all of them a shot. I'm from Hungary, and a locally bought Samsung phone only came to life after flashing a Spanish factory image.
you need to (by)pass SLA/DAA authentication
Now I managed to bypass protection, and got the successful flash message from SP Flash Tool.
But I still can't solve the issue (Phone still only responsive from BROM)
For reference I'm using the global version of RMX3171 (Realme Narzo 30A) based on MT6768, and the Stock ROM is available online.
I flashed every partition (Provided in the Stock ROM), and Now it is booting, showing the logo + a message "Download not completed Error Code 0x992566 " and then it reboots after a minute or so -_-
I think that means you did not flash all partitions (some not included in Download)
In the other thread someone mentioned "Format All + Download" very bad idea never do this.
did you try unlocking bootloader from mtkclient like suggested in that thread?

There is no such thing as a "hard bricked" device that can still boot into TWRP. A hard bricked device is completely dead and shows no kind of activity or function. It won't charge, it won't boot into any kind of mode and can't make a connection to PC, makes no sound when connecting to PC and it won't appear in device manager when connected to PC.
A device that can boot into download mode but not its other modes is just a softbricked device.
