Unbricking & Factory
Firmware Restoration Guide ​
OVERVIEW:
This guide outlines detailed instructions on restoring the KonnectONE Moxee MH-T6000 smartphone to its stock factory state by flashing firmware via the Qualcomm Flash Image Loader (QFIL) software for Windows. The firmware provided is official and signed by the manufacturer. This procedure can be used to restore either a soft or hard bricked device. In addition, this guide would benefit device owners who are rooted or running a custom OS who wish to revert to an unmodified stock state. This firmware will remove any root binaries, custom recoveries, custom kernels, system-level mods, and will restore your smartphone with the unmodified stock Android OS.
DISCLAIMER:
Due to the invasive nature of this procedure, there is an inherent risk that you could damage or otherwise render your device inoperable. By proceeding further, you are assuming sole responsibility for the integrity and operability of your smartphone, thus absolving me of any civil liability in the event things go bad. The steps in this guide have been thoroughly tested. Follow the instructions carefully, pay attention to detail, and things should go smoothly. Nevertheless, you have been cautioned. In the event you are attempting to recover from a hard brick, your device is already unresponsive and inoperable. Thus, the risk involved in such a scenario is virtually inconsequential.
PREREQUISITES:
First and foremost, you will need a PC or laptop running Windows 7/8.1/10/11; the Qualcomm USB device drivers (link provided below); the factory supplied or a quality equivalent USB-A to USB-C charging/syncing cable; the Qualcomm Flash Image Loader (QFIL) v2.0.0.0 software (link provided below); and a factory firmware package for the Assurance Wireless KonnectONE Moxee MH-T6000 smartphone (link provided below). This procedure can be carried out regardless of the locked/unlocked state of your bootloader. Moreover, if your bootloader is in an unlocked state, it will remain in an unlocked state once the factory firmware is installed. Likewise, if your bootloader is locked, flashing the factory firmware will not alter its locked state.

QUALCOMM FLASH IMAGE LOADER:
For those members unfamiliar, the Qualcomm Flash Image Loader, or QFIL, is a portable software application used for flashing factory firmware to devices powered by Qualcomm chipsets. QFIL is a proprietary flashing protocol, developed by Qualcomm Technologies, Inc., and is also an inbuilt application to the Qualcomm Program Support Tool (QPST). The flashing protocol utilizes Qualcomm's proprietary Emergency Download Mode (EDL), one of the only solutions capable of fully restoring a completely hard bricked mobile device. This flashing method can restore a device in which the partition table has been corrupted or is missing entirely. It is also worth noting that QFIL is integrated with a QCN (Qualcomm Calibration Network) backup and restore feature. The QCN is a binary file which encompasses all calibration data for the various hardware components and sensors within the device. It also stores the baseband radio and network configuration settings, including unique identifiers such as your IMEI/MEID numbers. This valuable feature can be used to restore these settings and values if they become corrupted or lost due to a system-level issue or a botched user-end system modification.
For purposes of simplicity and efficiency, and because this procedure does not require the entire QPST software suite (which includes service programming tools, port configuration monitor, baseband radio diagnostic tools, and QFIL), we will be using the portable standalone version of the QFIL software application.
INSTRUCTIONS:​
Download the Qualcomm USB drivers installer from the below link and save it to a convenient location on your PC or laptop. Double click on the .exe installer and follow the prompts for installation. On the Setup Type window, select the first option for WWAN-DHCP then select Next. Now accept the terms of the license agreement and compete the installation. Once completed, reboot your computer;​
Download QFIL v2.0.0.0 and extract the contents of the archive to a folder on your desktop, or to another convenient directory on your PC or laptop;​
Download the Moxee MH-T6000 firmware from the below link and extract the contents of the archive to a folder on your desktop, or to another convenient directory on your PC or laptop;​
Double click QFIL.exe inside the QFIL folder (referenced in Step 2) to open the flashing utility. In the upper-left area of the QFIL interface, select the Flat Build option. Next click the Build tab, which will open the Windows File Explorer. Navigate to the extracted firmware folder you created in Step 3. Select the firmware file named prog_emmc_firehose_8917_ddr.mbn, then click Open. Next, click the Load XML... tab which will once again launch Windows File Explorer. Select the file named rawprogram_unsparse.xml, then click Open. On the next screen select patch.0.xml and select Open once more. The firmware package is now loaded and ready to flash;​
Now you must initiate Emergency Download Mode (EDL) on your phone. EDL mode is a Qualcomm proprietary firmware flashing & diagnostic protocol To do this, first ensure your device is powered off (unless, of course, your device is hard bricked, in which case it will be completely unresponsive and, for all intents and purposes, is already in a powered off state). Connect one end of your data syncing cable to your PC or laptop, but not yet to your phone. On your smartphone, hold Volume Up and Volume Down simultaneously while connecting the Type-C end of the data syncing cable to your phone. If your phone is being properly recognized, you will see Qualcomm HS USB QLOADER 9008 at the top of the QFIL interface, followed by your active port number. If you do not see this indicator on the QFIL interface, try using another data syncing cable, change USB ports, and/or reinstall the Qualcomm USB device drivers by repeating Step 1;​
Once a proper connection is verified, click on the blue Download tab to commence the flashing process. A progress bar on the interface will indicate the status of the flashing process. This can take a few minutes, so just remain patient until the Status window indicates flashing success;​
Now simply power up your device. It may be necessary to briefly remove and reinsert the battery to exit EDL mode. That's it. Your device should now be reverted to its factory stock state.​
DOWNLOADS:
• Qualcomm USB Drivers Installer
• QFIL v2.0.0.0
• MH-T6000V1.0.0B010 Firmware

THANKS & MENTIONS:
Thanks to @omb714.1980 for donating the device that made this guide possible. Thanks also to KonnectONE Support representative, Faith Flores, for providing me with the factory signed firmware for this phone.​

I ended up removing various system apks by using some ro2rw magisk module etc but upon rebooting it kept going to fastboot. I flashed stock super img with fastboot then reflashed patched boot img and restored firmware that way. Lol I'm trying to recreate what I did idk maybe I needed to disable dfe. I had other magisk modules installed like an overlay to make ro rw partition for read only devices etc so idk yet

I need to try disable avb dm verity. Can someone upload the file I need to fastboot flash disable verity etc please? I successfully edited a super.img and just deleted various apps like outlook, fb installer, my account etc but left the folders etc. I used that ro2rw magisk. Pretty cool but after flashing the edited super.img it boots to fastboot mode. I'd like to try disabling verity.

You need vbmeta.img. You'll find it in the firmware package. To flash vbmeta.img and disable verity/AVB, use this command:
Code:
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
You can copy and paste this command to make it easier. All the hyphens are a bit tricky.

Thanks. Now just boots to black screen. Lol. I'll keep playing

I finally got super.img rw and was able to debloat directly from the booted device! I used a magisk module called RO2RW test version. It uses android terminal like termux to pull the super.img then extract it. Once Product, System etc are extracted you use the mount script that makes it able to edit the imgs from MT file manager. Then terminal prompt recompiles it along with a new boot.img. its hard to explain as im not a pro lol. Here's the xda link where I got the ro2rw magisk module. https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...system-partitions-to-read-write-mode.4521131/

Nice work. I have the CRB Kitcen for Windows which performs similar operations to super.img. My only dilemma has been a lack of free time. I'll check out the method you linked. I'm not familiar with that Magisk module and I will definitely check it out. Again, nice work. I admire your persistence and determination.

It bumps the security patch level and fixes a couple of bugs in the cellular radio firmware resulting in dropped calls during node switching.
To install it, the simplest way is to revert to an unmodified stock state by flashing the factory firmware in my restoration guide. Once restored, you can install the update.zip via stock recovery mode.

Awesome. Oh btw firmware is now available for the mtk blu view 3 android 11 now!!

I unlocked mine simply by flashing the factory firmware via QFIL, using the exact steps outlined in this guide. After initial setup following firmware restoration, the preinstalled network unlock app indicated that my device was permanently unlocked for use with other carriers.
I'm not exactly sure as to the reason why this worked, nor have I researched the possible mechanics behind the occurrence.

The state of the bootloader has no relevance to firmware restoration. The firmware will be installed in exactly the same manner regardless of whether the device is bootloader locked or unlocked.

I have a question, why when I insert the sim card into the phone, it appears that there is no service, since the service is available on any other device. will the modified ROM solve the problem or the official ROM? please answer......

This ROM does not have any effect on the network locked or unlocked state of the device. You may need to configure your network settings or APN configuration for the carrier of the SIM card. But, out of curiosity, what carrier is linked to your SIM card, and has your Moxee phone been network unlocked? By default, the Moxee m2160 is locked to Assurance Wireless and, as such, will only work on their network.

[Release] Root the Palm phone

Here is a rooting method for the Plam Phone either the US variant or the Vodafone variant this has not been tested or confirmed working on any other device. This root method may break in the future because it is using a tool that isn't designed for the public i tried getting the firehose packaged with the tool to work in other edl flashing tools but was not able to get it working. So this is all we have for now. There is minimal risk in doing this it just has a lot of steps and it requires a pc running windows.
Note: This will wipe your device so anything stored on it will be lost please backup anything important like photos/contacts/etc
Download and install Sugar QCT from here (Be sure to install the usb drivers as well)
Included in the zip is the username and password that you will need to use to run the program please do not post it here.
Boot the device into recovery by turning the device off and then holding the power button until it restarts 3-4 times and boots to recovery
Select the option to go into emergency download mode
Now plug the device into your computer and open Sugar QCT
From the list select pepito/PVG100 (US) or pepito_vdf (Vodafone)
Now select Upgrade this will download the palms firmware package and flash it to the device
When it finishes do not close sugar
Unplug your device and hold the power button for a few minutes so it will restart out of EDL mode, use a rubber band or something to apply pressure to it so you don't have to hold it
Go to where Sugar QCT is installed (C:\Program Files (x86)\SUGAR QCT_SP_Gotu2\bin\)
In there you should see a folder called PVG100-xxxx (The x's are your serial number)
Copy that to your desktop or anywhere else that you like
In the folder, there should be some random looking mbn files these are actually the firmware files just names are randomized to make using them harder.
There should be a file called B1AMD0D0CV00.mbn if not look for a file that starts with a B it will be the boot.img
You will need to push that to an android device and patch it with magisk manager.
Once that is done replace the B1AMD0D0CV00.mbn in your copy of the firmware with the patched boot.img
Boot it back into emergency download mode as previously stated
Close and reopen sugar
Copy your firmware copy back into C:\Program Files (x86)\SUGAR QCT_SP_Gotu2\bin\ be sure it is the same folder structure
Now select your model again and then press the upgrade button in sugar this will now flash your modified firmware to the device.
Once it finishes hold the power button for a few minutes so it will restart out of EDL mode, use a rubber band or something to apply pressure to it so you don't have to hold it
When it restarts and powers up then go through setting the phone up and install magisk manager and you're rooted.
Thanks to @StormSeeker1 for telling me about holding the power button for a few minutes to get out of EDL previously you had to let the phone die to get out of it which is a pain.
Interesting, shall do it tomorrow.
Curious, this doesn't use the root exploit discussed in other threads? Where is (7) downloading from?

It doesn't use any root exploit, it's downloading the firmware directly from TCL servers, the tool used is designed for service centers.

They are signed with different keys, so it will probably cause the device to boot loop and or not startup. I would not recommend trying it.
Is it possible to dump the radio files from an network unlocked device, and use these files to unlock Verizon network.
Any other ideas to unlock network?
Current findings:
1. Remove the Verizon sim warning.
Simply edit the /vendor/build.prop and modify line "ro.product.vzw=true" to false. However, it has a side effect, causing the contacts in dailer FC while browsering.
2. Enable diag, serial and QMI
One method is dialing "###2324#", another approach is launching "EngineerMode" through apps like quickshortcutmaker, then navigate to Connectivity - DiagProtector.
3. Boot animation path
/Vendor/JRD_custres/media/
4. Most garbage apps path
/Vendor /priv-app/
Every time I try to replace the MBN files after being patched the utility keeps redownloading the originals. Any advice?

Just began mind. So far it's stuck on 2%.
Regarding flashing Vodaphone over Verizon, if the ROM files are signed with different keys then modifying the boot.img will surely break the signage?

Doesn't that empirically prove that different versions have different signatures, or at least ROM's are different enough to prevent switching over? Maybe we are just so lucky that boot.img is not checked as rigorously.
Is pvg100e for Vodafone? Where did you get the ROM if your device is pvg100?
Does it finish flashing if you do pvg100 over pvg100?

The tool deadman provided definitely works if u follow the instruction and choose the right version.
For the signature issue, maybe u can find the answer in another thread about temporary root.
As to the version problems, pvg100 is for Verizon.
To my knowledge, the pvg100e is for many other vendors, such as Vodafone, and the UK version maybe share the same model name. There is another version pvg100eu, for European. U can find more evidence in the temporary root thread.
So far the following:
Windows 10 64 - goes to 2% then after a few seconds a 5002 error.
Windows 7 64 inside Virtualbox - goes to 2% and then doesn't move.
I've tried the drivers and others on the web although the latest is around 2014/15.

I'm not looking to root right now, but if I'm understanding this correctly this should mean that I can use SugarQCT to pull the latest version (1AMD) firmware for my Palm that doesn't show any OTA's available and is still on the original 1AGL firmware. Is that correct?
Thanks for making this happen, deadman96385!

No need for empirical proof, I did the analysis here.
The difference is: the early part of boot is Qualcomm code using Qualcomm security. These are the "pbl", "sbl/edl" and "aboot/fastboot" programs (and also "modem", "tz" and other bits). These were the parts that I was looking at in the link above.
When "aboot" completes, it hands over to the late part of boot, which is Android code using Google security. These are the "boot.img/Linux kernel" programs, "recovery", "system", "vendor", "data", etc. They use a different security model. That's what this root method targets. You are correct when you say "Maybe we are just so lucky that boot.img is not checked as rigorously".
It does imply that you can mix the PVG100 Qualcomm partitions for "early boot" with the PVG100E Android partitions for "late boot" and vice-versa. But someone with motivation needs to test this... (No, you can't unlock cellular bands this way; the "modem" partition is from Qualcomm and must match your hardware.)
A good diagram is below; Source (and explanation): https://blog.quarkslab.com/analysis-of-qualcomm-secure-boot-chains.html -- I recommend studying this article.

This should work. Keep in mind that whilst 1AMD seems to be fine, future versions may (permanently) close the vulnerabilities that allow you to get root, modify system partitions or use the current version of SugarQCT. I don't think this will happen but we should all keep the possibility in mind.
Which Windows version are people using? I've tried W10 and also W7 through a virtualbox but with the above errors.

Factory Firmware Restoration
And Upgrading Guide ​
OVERVIEW
The Hot Pepper™ Serrano is a GSM unlocked 4G-LTE smartphone manufactured by Hot Pepper Mobile. A popular carrier variant of this device is the QLink Serrano 3, a model manufactured specifically for eligible recipients of the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP). The ACP is a US government sponsored initiative that assists low-income households with wireless internet service.
This firmware package is specific to the QLink Serrano 3 carrier variant of the HPP-L55B, and includes QLink carrier apps and services. However, notwithstanding the minimal bloatware, this firmware should work on any unlocked or carrier-branded variant of this smartphone. I am presently working on removing all bloatware and carrier-ware from this firmware package. Once I have finished that task, I will provide a clean build that can be flashed via FastbootD mode.

This guide involves flashing the eMMC internal storage device of your smartphone with a factory firmware package, thus fully restoring your device to its stock factory condition. The procedure outlined below is inherently risky to the overall integrity and operability of your mobile device. Failure to follow the instructions properly can, for instance, render your device completely inoperable. By proceeding further, you are assuming sole responsibility for the integrity and operability of your phone. I have fully tested this procedure on my own device. Follow the instructions carefully, employ patience, and things should go smoothly. I am not responsible if you brick or otherwise damage your Serrano. Moreover, it should be emphasized that this guide is for model HPP-L55B only.​
PREREQUISITES
A PC or laptop running on Windows 7/8.1/10/11;​
The SP Flash Tool firmware flashing software (link provided below);​
A factory firmware package for the HPP-L55B (link provided below);​
The vCom MediaTek USB drivers installed on your Windows computer (link provided below);​
The factory supplied or a quality equivalent micro USB to USB-A data syncing cable.​
MEDIATEK vCOM DEVICE DRIVERS
We will be using SP Flash Tool v5.1924 to install this firmware package. One of the biggest obstacles encountered by device owners using SP Flash Tool is device recognition. The SP Flash Tool software installs firmware to a USB connected device by flashing the eMMC/NAND while the device is in BROM flash mode. This Boot ROM (BROM) state is a MediaTek proprietary firmware flashing protocol that utilizes hardware embedded bootloader code. In order for the SP Flash Tool to properly communicate with your MediaTek device, it is imperative that you have the latest MediaTek vCom drivers properly installed and configured on you Windows PC or laptop. While this guide will not include a dissertation on setting up these vCom drivers, I have included a link in the downloads section below to a comprehensive step-by-step guide on the procedure. Hence, if your Windows PC or laptop is not presently configured with installation of the latest vCom drivers, take this time to visit the guide linked below, and return to the instructions below once you have completed that task.​
INSTRUCTIONS
This section presumes that you have properly installed & configured the latest MediaTek vCom USB drivers on your Windows PC or laptop. Again, I have linked a guide for installing these drivers in the downloads section below. Your bootloader does not need to be in an unlocked state. However, this procedure should not relock your bootloader if it is presently in an unlocked state.
WARNING: This process will erase all saved user data from your device. Before proceeding, make a backup of any files, media or data that you wish to preserve.​
Download the HPP-L55B factory firmware package from the link below and extract the contents of the archive to a folder on your computer desktop, or to a folder in another convenient directory;​
Download SP Flash Tool v5.1924 from the link below and extract the archive to your desktop, or to another easily accessible directory;​
Ensure that your smartphone is powered off and is not connected to your PC or laptop;. Likewise, ensure that there are no other mobile devices or USB storage devices connected to your computer;​
Open the SP Flash Tool folder that you extracted in Step 2. Click on flash_tool.exe, then right click and choose to Run as Administrator;​
Ensure that the pull-down menu, located near the mid-left region of the interface, is set to Download only. Next, click on the Choose folder icon, located to the right of the Scatter-loading file heading.​
A file explorer will be launched. Navigate to the saved location of the firmware you extracted in the first step. In the firmware directory, select MT6739_Android_scatter.txt and then click Open;​
The SP Flash Tool will now load the factory firmware package. A violet-colored progress bar near the bottom of the interface will reflect the completion status.​
Once the firmware has been loaded, connect the USB-A end of the data syncing cable to your PC or laptop. Click the Download box located near the upper-left region of the interface;​
Now, connect the micro USB end of the data sync cable to your phone. If the vCom drivers are properly installed and configured on your PC or laptop, SP Flash Tool will recognize your device and initiate firmware installation via BROM flash mode. A yellow progress bar located near the bottom of the interface will reflect the percentage of completion. Once completed, you will receive a notification that the procedure was successful.​
Disconnect your Serrano and use the power key to boot the device. Your phone should now be restored to its unmodified factory state.​

Not at all, but I'm far from a rookie, but they are good, was actually something different for me. Never messed with mediatek like that before. However, it said it relocks bootloader, it however left mine unlocked. So I don't know if I'm the only one, or known issue, or if for once in lucky? Lmfao

What method did you use to unlock your bootloader initially? Just the standard fastboot command line?
By the way this is a phone i am presently beta testing for Hot Pepper Mobile. Very nice device and T-Mobile certified. I highly recommend this phone once it is released for the public market.

Greetings @odilonser. Technically speaking, this factory firmware mage for the Serrano is a leaked resource. Because I maintain an amicable relationship with Hot Pepper Mobile, I need to first ascertain that the company's upper echelon is okay with me hosting this particular firmware package before reposting the link.
@Viva La Android what is the decryption key? if you cant do that can you upload the boot image by itself please?

This folder includes both boot images: boot.img & boot-debug.img; it also contains vbmeta.img, the scatter file for the firmware, recovery.img, ramdisk.img & preloader.img
72.86 MB folder on MEGA
7 files
mega.nz
If you're using the boot image to patch for Magisk systemless root, you'll likely need to disable AVB/dm-verity using vbmrta.img.with the corresponding fastboot command.
To clarify, these images
were pulled from the HPP-L55B-J-9.0.0 build.
Ok, thank you! I don't like mega, but as long as i can root my phone, it should work. Ah, its another service I'm thinking of. I take that back lol
Cool. Yeah Mega is fully.safe: encrypted file.srorage and end-to-end encryption file transfers.
Code:
fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
fastboot reboot
@VenomousSteam81 ... Does the stock boot image have a dedicated ramdisk? Does the Magisk app indicate yes or no next to ramdisk? Nevermind on thatI just decompiled the boot image and saw tharthere is a boot-ramdisk.

How To Guide [TB132FU-Mediatek Kompanio 1300T] Convert from Chinese to Global

NEW: Install official Global ROM on Chinese TB132FU running ZUI 14 or Fake global​DISCLAMER: Flashing on TB132FU is pretty much safe and a hard brick has not occured yet, but do it at your own risk. If anything goes wrong you can return to ZUI 14 using one of the restoration methods listed on the FAQ thread. ALL YOUR FILES WILL BE DELETED. Make a backup of your personal files before proceeding.
Did my work help you? Be free to buy me a coffee. PayPal me at @alsbvg​
Current version: TB132FU_S000094_221117_ROW
To see what works and what doesn't check below.
To flash this version you will need:
1 - A computer running Windows
2 - Flashtool (attached to the thread)
3 - ADB drivers or UsbDk drives & MTK drivers
4 - ZUI 14 installed on your TB132FU. If you have fake global you can flash as well, but having ZUI is recommended.
5 - Firmware file
6 - Attention to the really detailed tutorial below.
How to flash
Preparation:
1 - Download and install the drivers provided above. If you already have them installed skip this step.
2 - On your computer create a folder on your Desktop. Name it LENOVO.
3 - Download the firmware file (download link provided above) and un-zip it inside the LENOVO folder on your desktop. So inside your LENOVO folder now you should have a folder called TB132FU_S000094 Global.
4 - Download the attached flash tool and un-zip it inside the LENOVO folder on your desktop. Now you have a folder called TB132FU_S000094 Global and a folder called MTK_Flashtool.
5 - Power off your TB132FU and disconnect it from your computer in case you have it connected.
Flashing:
1 - Go to the LENOVO folder, and open the folder MTK-Flashtool. Inside this folder find flash_tool and double-click to open it.
2 - Once it opens click the TAB download. Do not click the green arrow.
3 - For the Download agent click Choose. Navigate to your Desktop > Lenovo > MT_Flashtool and select the file MTK_AllInOne_DA_onyx_signed
4- For Scatter-loading file click Choose. Navigate to your Desktop > Lenovo > TB132FU_S000094 Global and select MT6893_Android_scatter.txt. You will see two files with the same name. Click the one with the paper with lines icon. Wait for it to load.
5 - For Authentication File click Choose. Navigate to your Desktop > Lenovo > MT_Flashtool and select the file auth_sv5
6 - You will see white and green lines below. Scroll down and find the line that starts with lk_a and UNMARK it. All the other options should be marked, only lk_a should be unmarked.
Ex:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
7 - Click the green arrow DOWNLOAD and plug in your tablet. Wait until it completes flashing the firmware.
And done. Once it is finished you can unplug your tablet and turn it on. You now should be running the latest global rom on your TB132FU;
What works:
Google Sync
HDR with true black
Productivity mode (PC mode)
And almost everything else. I'm still testing it.
What doesn't work:
OTA - once a new update is available it will be needed to be flashed manually losing all data. OTA did not work on a previous version.
Ultra-fast charging. It has Rapid charge but not the super fast charging available on ZUI
Some users reported L1 when flashing this global.
For users who lost L1 status, no solution to get it back from L3 yet. :/
"Scroll to the left" on the home screen to access the media center will not turn off even if you try manually setting it as off.
Time-zone issue: Factory reset it after the first boot to get it fixed.
You tell me what else is not working.
Thanks for the detailed explanation.
Some cuestions that you may have an answer for:
1. Has the bootloader to be unlock? What happens if I have the bootloader lock? (I lock mine with zui 14 in order to get L1)
2. Is there a way to change region code like in others lenovo models? Will it have any impact on OTAs?
3. Can you rollback to zui 14?
Thanks in advance. I think that will be able to have a full working rom with OTAs and L1 eventually. This is a huge step forward

Out of curiosity, does the Chinese model have an Ultra fast charging?
My Global P11 Pro gen 2 does Rapid charge and my cable display caps out at 10w which I wouldn't say is rapid...
Same cable and charger gives me much faster speeds on my Galaxy S22U.

1 - You don't need the bootloader to be unlocked to flash this global version. I had Zui 14 with a locked bootloader and OEM locked, and the flashing worked. The OEM toggle will not be available once you use this version. It says you need to connect to the internet or contact your carrier.
2 - No way to change the region code so far. OTA will not work as described. It was tested on an older version. It will download and try to install but will fail. This is the latest rom so no OTA updates so far, we will have to wait to see if it will be the same.
3 - Yes, you can roll back to Zui 14. I did that quite a few times during my tests. Bricked the device more than 20 times and was always able to roll back to ZUI.
Thank you so much!
Generating User Accounts is working too? Wanted to use the tablet for the family, but ZUI doesn't offer accounts and Google Family doesn't work.
Hi. Thank you very much for the excellent work! Testing, so far so good. Do I have an L1 or am I misunderstanding something? Screenshot attached.
Thanks for the great work you do.
We have successfully implemented the global implementation.
My tablet is formatted with the SP Flash Tool. The serial number was lost at that time. (When I looked in the settings, the serial number was 0123456789ABCDEF.)
The serial number itself was recovered by rewriting the proinfo.bin. I think this formatting probably caused the Widevine-related settings to disappear and become L3.
I ask other L3 users, did you format with SP Flash Tool or python?
Flash mine today from ZUI 14 with bootloader lock, L1 and Google Play Certified to Global ROM and I kept L1, Google Certified Device and everything Is working. Even fast charging.
Thanks a lot! Let's see what happens when an OTA Will be available.

I bought it for my daughter to use and have Family link for her Google Account and its all kinds of wonky (it shows my daughters account under Accounts then it vanishes. the only way I can add it back in is by signing into the Play store but then after an hour or so it goes. Works fine with my google account. Damn Family Link!)
(its on 14.0.413, and has an update pending for 14.0.640 ST). Not a clue how to check if its a modified ROM or what, but was going to try the above and see how it gets on.
Just to clarify fast charging Is shown on the screen but I don't if it's 10w ir 30w. I Will do some measures today and keep you posted

Try the AccuBattery app, it may not be accurate, but it shows the charging current. I don't want to charge it yet. I will first discharge it and then install this app and start charging. It's convenient because it shows time to charge up to 100%.

Go to your settings menu. If you see the word ZUI anywhere, it's the Chinese model and you can flash the global if you want.

What I did.
Install Python and mtkclient on a windows 10 computer.
python mtk rl --skip userdata "Destination path"
Backup everything but the user data with the above command
Open the backed up proinfo.bin with HxD and rewrite the serial number at the beginning.
python mtk wl "Destination path"
Flash the rewritten proinfo.bin with the above command.

I used to be able to do this, but I just tried it with a globalised tablet and it didn't work: the BROM mode (press power and volume plus simultaneously to connect the cable) is difficult to connect and even if it does, an error message appears and the process stops. When I get more time, I will switch back to zui14 and give it a try.

Nice one! I can test it tomorrow. It's actually easier to pull the proinfo.bin file using MTK META Utility by using option Dump NV region. I was able to get and edit the file. Not sure how to flash it again on ZUI with a unlocked bootloader. But that's a start. I managed to get another Serial number by flashing another user's backup, but I still have L3, so might not be connected. I'll keep trying.

Rooting Guide​
OVERVIEW:
This guide outlines simplified instructions for rooting the Assurance Wireless Moxee MH-T6000 4G-LTE smartphone. To cater this guide to new and inexperienced members, I have provided a stock boot image pre-patched with the Magisk v26.1 systemless root solution.
PREREQUISITES:
First and foremost, you need an unlocked bootloader. If your bootloader is not yet unlocked, complete that task and then return here. XDA hosts a plethora of how-to guides on standard bootloader unlocking. You will also need a Windows PC or laptop running the Minimal ADB & Fastboot Tools (link provided below). It should be noted that this guide can be carried out on a Mac or Linux computer as well; however, for purposes of this guide, I am focusing solely on a Windows setup. It is highly recommended that your device be running firmware build number MH-T6000V1.0.OB010, with the March 5, 2023 security patch level. As OTA updates are rolled out for this device, I will try to keep this guide updated with a patched boot image that corresponds with the latest firmware build.
Finally, you will need the factory supplied, or a quality equivalent USB-A to USB-C charging/syncing cable.
DISCLAIMER:
By proceeding further, you are assuming sole responsibility for the integrity and operability of your smartphone. Rooting your device is a task that carries with it the inherent risk of bricking or otherwise rendering your phone inoperable. While this guide has been thoroughly tested on my own device, you have been warned. Proceed at your own risk.
INSTRUCTIONS:​
Download the ADB & Fastboot tools from the link below and install the program on your PC or laptop;​
Open your Windows File Explorer, navigate to your C: drive, Program Files x86, and locate the Minimal ADB & Fastboot folder. Copy this folder and paste it to your desktop. (This step is not required, but is recommended for easier access of the ADB & Fastboot path);​
Download the patched boot image from the below link and save the image in your ADB & Fastboot folder. Note: the filename for the patched boot image is patched_boot.img. The flashing commands assume that you leave the filename unchanged;​
Boot your phone into fastboot mode by first powering your device off, and then holding the power and volume down keys simultaneously until fastboot mode appears on your device display;​
Connect your smartphone to your Windows computer using the factory supplied or a quality equivalent USB-A to USB-C charging/syncing cable;​
Open your ADB & Fastboot folder and double click cmd-here.exe to open a command window. Execute this command to verify a proper fastboot connection:
Code:
fastboot devices
If properly connected, the command window will return an alphanumeric string consistent with your device serial number;​
Once a proper connection has been verified, execute this command:
Code:
fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img
Now execute:
Code:
fastboot reboot
Upon reboot, open your app drawer and tap on the Magisk app or its placeholder stub. Ensure you are connected to the internet, grant any permissions, and follow any prompts given by Magisk to update to the full version in order to complete the root environment setup. Magisk may reboot your device during this process.​
That's it. You're now rooted via the Magisk v26.1 systemless root solution.​
IMPORTANT NOTE:
In the unfortunate event that you get stuck in a boot loop or brick your device using this guide, my guide on unbricking this smartphone will get you back up and running fairly quickly. This guide can be used to restore both soft bricked and hard bricked devices. You can then return here and give rooting another go.

• Magisk Patched Boot Image
THANKS & MENTIONS:
A huge thanks and shout-out to @omb714.1980 for donating the Moxee smartphone that made this rooting guide possible. You are a scholar and a gentleman, good sir. Thanks also to KonnectONE support specialist Faith Flores for releasing to me the factory firmware for this device.​

Download the patched boot image from the below link and save the image in your ADB & Fastboot folder;​
Boot your phone into fastboot mode by first powering your device off, and then holding the power and volume down keys simultaneously until fastboot mode appears on your device display;​
Connect your smartphone to your Windows computer using the factory supplied or a quality equivalent USB-A to USB-C charging/syncing cable;​
Open your ADB & Fastboot folder and double click cmd-here.exe to open a command window. Execute this command to verify a proper fastboot connection:
Code:
fastboot devices
If properly connected, the command window will return an alphanumeric string consistent with your device serial number;​
Once a proper connection has been verified, execute this command:
Code:
fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img
Now execute:
Code:
fastboot reboot
Upon reboot, open your app drawer and tap on the Magisk app or its placeholder stub. Ensure you are connected to the internet, grant any permissions, and follow any prompts given by Magisk to update to the full version in order to complete the root environment setup. Magisk may reboot your device during this process.​
That's it. You're now rooted via the Magisk v26.1 systemless root solution.​

Lol. Now you post this. After unsuccessfully scouring the internet for the stock firmware. I finally did the same as you and simply reached out to konnectone and asked for it. I just came here to see if there was anyone here that is by far more knowledgeable than myself (not hard) interested to have the firmware and would post a guide like this one. Well done!
Would you happen to have a twrp recovery compiled for this device by chance? Or if not but planning on it would you let me know please. I would appreciate it!

I just got KonnectONE to agree to release firmware a couple of days before you mentioned having firmware. It's been a long wait indeed.
I don't have source code to compile TWRP; only the firmware. I will be attempting to port a TWRP build for this phone very soon. My legal battle with KonnectONE was in regards to source code under the General Public License 2.0. Because they were ultimately unable to provide kernel source, their legal team and support department finally acquiesced to provide firmware to device owners upon written request. I compromised for the firmware release, but was not able to get kernel source code for building TWRP. I am pretty confident that a ported TWRP can be ironed out as a stable build. I already have the base build selected.
Thank you so much! I have 3 of these devices and been waiting lol. I see the stock kernel has hot-plug . What's some good tuning profiles? I tried to debloat permanently with LP but it didn't work. I think it's read-only so I flashed the magisk overlay for rw and going to play. We definitely need TWRP! I see a port may be in the works. Awesome. Thanks again

Several months ago they weren't releasing firmware to the public. I got it released by battling with them over open source code and I ultimately compromised for factory firmware. It was only recently made public.
Yeah I've noticed a nice performance boost too with some debloating and sone kernel tweaks. I'm using EX Kernel Manager. Keep in mind this device uses dynamic partitioning (super.img). As such, even with root, it isn't always possible to mount /system r/w. I extracted the super.img on a PC and then mounted /system, /vendor and /product, debloated, and then repacked and reflashed super img.
Awesome. I don't have a good pc now unfortunately. I do have viper4android repackaged version with driver and effects pre-installed. I used smart pack kernel manager to tweak kernel. The device is very useable now! I have a Blu View 3 android 11 mtk device id love to root but can't even unlock bootloader. Maybe I should look into emailing them

BLU won't unlock your bootloader. It is locked per contractual agreement with the branded carrier of the phone. However, if it's MediaTek, you may be able to use MTK Client to exploit the bootloader into an unlocked state.

Would you plz share your super.img ? I'm on latest firmware and have attached screenshot of build etc.... I understand if you can't or don't want to. Can I pull mine since I'm rooted? Problem is I have a old Chromebook that I installed endeavor os on its arch based Linux but I don't have much hard drive space to do work

Sure. I don't mind sharing my super.img. I'll need to upload it and then I'll message you a link. It's pretty much exactly 2.5 GB in file size, so I'll first compress it to a zip before uploading.
The edited one. Just clarifying so appreciated

I don't yet have all my mods made to the /super partition in that regard. Having encountered some force close issues with certain apps, I debloated from scratch and and have now begun my kernel tweaks and edits to the.varuous .prop files. So when finished, I'll share both my boot.img and super.img.
Just the stock super.img would be fine then. I think I can figure how to decompile, debloat and recompile then flash.

I was experimenting and flashed the super.img with dsu side loader apk as a gsi lol. The app description said can replace various partitions and I was just trying to get system rw on the dsu loader. I know that makes no sense. What windows 11 compatible software do you recommend to unpack, repack etc? I see a few magisk modules but not quite sure how to use. Like ro2rw magisk module

When I have completed debloating, kernel tweaks and .prop files edits of the OS, I'll share my modified super.img and boot.img. I have a TWRP v3.6.0 port build that is currently booting properly on this phone. But, I have bugs to work out on logical partition mounting, as well as the backup & restore functionality.

Check out CRB Android Kitchen here on XDA. Great for unpacking / repacking partition images, including super.img.

KonnectONE Moxee m2160
4G-LTE Smartphone
Model No. MH-T6000​
OVERVIEW:
This is a heavily modified build of the stock Android 11 (Go Edition) ROM which comes preinstalled on the KonnectONE Moxee m2160 smartphone. Please note that, while flashing this ROM will not network unlock your device, the ROM does include added support for most GSM based providers on devices which have previously been network unlocked.
In a nutshell, this modified build focuses on the removal of bloatware and a slimmed-down, more responsive stock OS experience. In addition, once installed, the ROM supports full R/W mounting of all logical partitions encompassed within /super. (The unmodified stock ROM, notwithstanding Magisk systemless root, restricts proper R)W mounting of these partitions due to the stringent codebase changes which implemented the dynamic partition scheme back with the release of Android 10.) This ROM also disables force encryption to /userdata (DFE), disables AVB/dm-verity, and includes several mods for improved performance and responsiveness. While certainly nothing special in terms of custom development for the Moxee m2160, this ROM should provide users with a sufficient daily driver ROM with an optimized stock feel.

PREREQUISITES:​
An unlocked bootloader ​
A PC or laptop running on Windows 7, 8.1, 10 or 11​
Smartphone must be running Firmware Build No. MH-T6000V1.0.0B010​
The SDK Platform Tools on your Windows computer (link provided below)​
Installation of the proper ADB & Fastboot device drivers on your Windows computer​
The factory supplied, or a quality sufficient, USB-A to USB-C syncing/charging cable​
A reliable internet connection for downloading the required files ​
NOTE: We will not be using a custom recovery for installation of this ROM, but rather the dynamic user space implementation of fastboot mode, formally called FastbootD. This fastboot protocol was first introduced with the release of Android 10, and is primarily utilized for the management of dynamic partitions (devices with a /super partition).
DISCLAIMER:
This guide involves the invasive procedure of flashing the partitions of your device, thus modifying the configuration of the device from its factory stock state. This is always inherently risky to the integrity and operability of your mobile device. By proceeding further, you are assuming sole responsibility for the functionality and physical wellbeing of your mobile phone, thus absolving me of any liability in the event things go badly. This ROM has, however, been tested thoroughly on my own device with no negative issues. Moreover, in the unfortunate event your device becomes bricked or otherwise inoperable by way of a botched adherence to this guide, my firmware restoration guide for this device can restore both soft and hard bricked phones. Moxee m2160 Unbricking Guide
INSTRUCTIONS:
WARNING:
These instructions include steps for initiating a factory data reset, a procedure which will effectively erase all saved user data, app data, app preferences, photos, videos, music, documents and other media files from your smartphone. Make a backup at this point of all data, files and media that you wish to preserve.​
Download the SDK Platform Tools from the link below and extract the contents of the archive to an empty folder on the desktop of your Windows computer​
Download the ROM from the link below and extract the contents of the archive to your platform tools directory created in the previous step​
Because this ROM has been modified to disable DFE force encryption, it is first necessary to format the /userdata partition. With your phone in a powered off state, press the Volume Up & Power keys simultaneously until the Moxee logo appears on your display, at which time you should release the Power key, but continue holding Volume Up until an Android logo and a corresponding No Command notification appears on your phone display. Now quickly press and hold Power, tap Volume Down and then Volume Up to enter stock recovery mode.​
Use the Volume Down key to navigate to the Wipe data/factory reset option, then press Power to select. Confirm this selection on the next screen to initiate the factory data reset.​
Once the factory reset is complete, navigate to the option to Enter Fastboot, then press Power to select. Your phone should now boot to FastbootD mode.​
In the platform tools folder created in the first step, click on cmd-here.exe, then right click and opt to run it as an administrator. A command window will be launched. Now connect your Moxee m2160 to your Windows computer using a sufficient USB-A to USB-C data syncing/charging cable.​
In order to verify proper fastboot communication between your phone and PC, execute the following command:
Code:
fastboot devices
If properly connected, the command window will yield an alphanumeric value consistent with your mobile phone serial number.​
Execute the following commands once a proper fastboot connection has been verified. Note, the user may copy these commands and paste the full text to the fastboot command window for systematic execution:​
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.patched.img
fastboot flash vbmeta_system vbmeta_system.patched.img
fastboot flash vbmetabak vbmetabak.patched.img
fastboot flash vbmeta_systembak vbmeta_systembak.patched.img
fastboot erase super
fastboot flash super super_rw.img
fastboot erase metadata
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase DDR
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot reboot
** Please note that the super_rw.img file is large in size. Fastboot may initially give a header magic notification error. However, the super_rw.img will then be allocated into a number of smaller sparsechunk files, which will subsequently be flashed to your device one at a time, until complete. Just remain patient during this process. This can take five minutes or more, but the process will not require any user action.​
Upon first reboot following installation, and after completing initial device setup, open your app drawer and search for the Magisk app or its stub placeholder. Open Magisk, grant any requested permissions, and follow any prompts by Magisk to update the version or complete setting up the root environment. If you do not see the Magisk app or stub, download the Magisk v26.1 APK from the link provided below and install the app on your phone. Be sure to then open Magisk and follow all prompts.​
DOWNLOADS:
• SDK Platform Tools r34.0.3
• Modified Stock ROM Package
• Official Magisk Releases / GitHub Repo
BUGS:
Please report any bugs or instabilities you may encounter using this modified stock ROM. Those who know how to submit an official bug report are urged to do so. Otherwise, please give a concise and detailed description of the issue, including photos or screenshots if possible. I will work diligently to patch any reported bugs or instabilities.Moxee m2160 Firmware Restoration & Unbricking Guide​
Instructions were great and I had no problems following them. I did have an error when I first entered the command "fastboot erase DDR" but only because I did not capitalize DDR. My only issue is I cannot get past the phone set up when first booting because it says there is an update and can not pass verification and there is no option to skip. And in my case I don't have a computer still so cannot use qfil to return to full stock to update. Any suggestions?

Okay. At the time I completed modifications on the ROM, the latest OTA had not yet rolled out. What I'll do is add another mod to kill the OTA service entirely. That should prevent any issues like you're facing. I'll expedite this task and will let you know just as soon as I've made the fix and changed out the ROM file with the new one. Thanks for your feedback. By the way you won't have to repeat the process, but will only need to flash the super_rw.img file.
Update: I have disabled system updates and OTA notifications. Proved trickier than I thought, since system updates on Android Go Edition are governed by Google Play Services. I had to decompile the Google Services apk, manually disable the individual system update service and listeners, then recompile and reinstall the Google Services core app. I am presently uploading the new super_rw.img.
One thing that should work for you in the meantime, while I get these new files uploaded, is to perform another factory data reset. During initial boot and setup, opt to complete setup offline, without connecting to WiFi or a mobile data network. Accordingly, your device will not be able to check for pending system updates and you should, therefore, be able to complete setup.

Do a factory reset beforehand. Then flash the super_rw.img
@Viva La Android
I haven't had any luck since my last post. Before I posted about the verification issue I had when setting up my phone I made sure I double checked that I did not have the option to skip the update as you suggested. That was not an option for some reason and that is when I came here. I have followed your steps with the new super.rw.img you updated but I am worse off than I was before. Now I cannot do anything as the phone is not recognizing any network or available WiFi connections. I have tried a factory reset and started over from your first step with no success. I should also include that since flashing the updated super.rw.img file, when the phone first boots the screen quickly flashes black and blue for about 10 seconds before finally starting the set up process then I get 2 error messages. The first being "system UI isn't responding" and second "Android setup keeps stopping" After all of that the setup starts and that's as far as I can go because I can't connect to anything. Trying to give you as many details I can think of. Before the screen flashing when powering on the phone, the boot animation just function properly. Only between the boot animation and setup process do I experience the rapid black and blue screen for roughly 10-15 seconds. I am including some screenshots of the error messages and setup screens showing no connections available. I almost forgot. I also tried manually adding my network and scan qr code with no success.
Unfortunately I have physically damaged my device beyond any hope of restoring it, so I won't be able to support this device any longer -- until & unless I can get a replacement display. But before my device went kaplut, I did test this ROM and had no issues. I wish I could be more help.
I would recommend performing all steps over again from the top -- formatting /userdata before doing anything. Have you tried by completing all the steps over?
