Unlock bootloader Infinix Zero 5 - Miscellaneous Android Development

Do it on your own Risk I am not responsible for any kind of brick.
Your warranty will be void.
Install adb driver first on your PC.
1. Settings >> About phone >> Tap “Build Number” seven times. You will see “You are now a developer”
2. Hit the back button. You will now see a new option in Settings — “Developer Options”
3. Turn on the developer options
4. **In the Developer Options, Enable OEM Unlock (Allow bootloader to unlock)
5. **Enable USB debugging
6. Plug your phone to PC via USB cable
7. open Command Prompt with admin right on your pc and type adb devices.
8. You should then see a pop up request on your Infinix Zero 5 to give your PC USB debugging permissions. Go ahead and allow
9. Type again adb devices it will show your device in list in command prompt (like Some number)
10. Type adb reboot bootloader (your phone will reboot to fastboot mode (a dim black screen will appear))
11. Type fastboot oem unlock.
12. it will ask for permission press volume+ button to confirm and wait to complete. (done, it will erase all your data)
will take more time to reboot first time.

upto step 10 I can see as described, but nothing happens at step 11.

your driver not installed correctly.
when you enter in fastboot/bootloader mode just type fastboot devices.
if there it shows your device then only further cmd will work.
and it shows only if fastboot driver installed correctly.

I could get to the screen where it asks for the permission on the phone screen. But could not muster courage to go ahead. will try some other time once I have full backup.
Thanks again.

Hi, Thanks for the described process. As mentioned above, I am also unable to pass through point 11. I can see the dim screen on the mobile, but on fastboot command, it appears to wait for the device.
Your help is highly appreciated.

is there a way to remove this message after unlocking bootloader ?
orange state : your device has been unlocked

Problem solved
Many people were having problems in the detection of device...i have solved it
Can anyone upload TWRP in Drive or any other place? The box link is all over the internet and is not working as it is out of bandwidth (sucks!). TIA FYI: The box link download button translates to this link
So since no one here seems to have the time or courtesy to provide the link, for the ones who needs it. Here it is.
Thanku soon much bro....just got my YU..will try it later

Just one question.... Can stock recovery install superuser?
http://forums.yuplaygod.com/#yuphoria.34
Actually why don't you'll try out the forums on YUPLAYGOD....
They have ALL THE POSSIBLE LINKS THERE and everything is functioning properly including links to TWRP and the rooting etc etc...
And it is better to have TWRP installed to flash SUPERSU..
Cheers
Greg

[Tutorial][Recovery][Root] Intex Aqua Music [Mediatek MT6735]

Hi there!!
Well I was trying to root this phone since a month but due to lack of developers, it wasn't possible. So I tried and at last succeeded in rooting and porting TWRP recovery for Intex Aqua Music.
I tried to elaborate every step as much as I can so the tutorial becomes user friendly for everyone.
Disclaimer: Rooting immediately voids your phone's warranty, you should consider very carefully whether you need to gain root privileges. And this tutorial will format your phone. So backup you important files at the very first.
Tutorial
First download all the files which i left and the end of the thread and proceed with the tutorial.
First of all you need to install ADB Drivers.
Once drivers are installed, you need to enable USB Debugging in your phone.
(goto phone settings->About phone->scroll down and you’ll see an entry labelled ‘Build number.’ Keep on tapping till you see a prompt that says ‘You are now a developer)
Now in phone settings you will see a new option called Developer Options.
Now goto Developer Options and enable OEM Unlocking(for unlocking the bootloader so you can flash the TWRP recovery) and USB Debugging.
Now connect you phone with usb cable to computer and open the adb and fastboot folder which you downloaded.
Then open command prompt there(shift+right click) and type:
Code:
adb devices
You will see a popup on you phone screen, Select allow and ok
Now you will see your device listed there in command prompt.
Now type the following commands:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
Phone will switch off and go into bootloader. Then type
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
Now you phone will ask for confirmation. Use Volume UP Button to select yes then type
Code:
fastboot continue
.
Now your device will reboot(it will take some time so don't worry)
Now once your phone boot up you will see its formatted and bootloader will be unlocked.
Now again goto setting and enable USB Debugging like before and connect you phone with pc.
Now copy the recovery.img from recovery zip which you downloaded to adb and fastboot folder.
Then in adb command prompt type the following commands like before
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
Wait for the phone to go into bootloader mode, then
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot continue
Now twrp is flashed in your phone. Now to root your device copy the supersu zip to you phone.
Switch off your mobile, then press Volume Up + Power button together then choose recovery mode with Volume UP Button and
press Volume Down Button.
Now phone will boot into TWRP recovery mode.
Click Install and choose the Super Su zip from file manager then install it.
The click reboot and once your phone boots up its rooted now.
Enjoy!
Thanks button will be appreciated if the tutorial works for you.
Thanks
Thanks man, helpful
