here again about the phone asking for the pin code...

I've performed a full wipe (dalvik, etc) and reinstalled cuoco92 ROM but the problem persist. I've chnged the sim, again.

The problem occurs when for some reasons the phone lose the signal (say, I get into the subway)...for real, nobody has this problem?!

PS I've installed radio version 1.42 and apparently it's solved...btw, also LTE works fine now

Probably you are on stock 1.20 by ET.

You have to install thru stock recovery stock firmware 1.42 for example. You can find it on needrom site. After this you will be able to root your phone by towelroot ;)
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] quejo:
Is there any way to flash a full rom instead only updates the installed? My problem is that it doesn't matter the update I apply or the recovery I use I always get the file WCNSS_qcom_cfg.ini inside /etc/firmware/wlan/prime corrupted that causes WiFi to not work and also I have always after a reboot change the radio mode in phone testing menu to enable LTE.

★Disconnected from Youtube server★

I can connect to google+.but disconnected from youtube server.I have tried the previous version of Youtube.it still failed!

Anyone can solve this problem?
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] flamery:
one problem I have, and I am not sure if its due to the rayglobe recovery or the 1.62 update. But now the apn-conf.xml file in /etc/system doesnt take any effect, I added a full file in there with all my APNs, reboot the phone, and try to restore default but nothing comes up. i had all my apn's set correctly so either the recovery or the update wiped them. when i look at the framework.res the apns.xml file seems a lot smaller and I suspect only has a limited number of apns in there.

The option was to manually enter them and probably have to re-do them every update or wipe. or decompile framework, put in the complete apn xml file, recompile then copy back to the device and reboot. to be honest the second option seemed a bit of hard work. If anyone else has done that, would be great to upload it here so we can just copy the file across.

Nubia Z7 Mini stuck on log in screen bricked?
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] Leo_83:
Probably no, what rom did you download?

Can you still get into recovery, power off the phone, then start it up by pressing and holding down power + volume up? If yes, just flash an other rom.

You might also try to flash via adb
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] agora.basta:
If you can reboot into the same NUBIA screen - it absolutely is not bricked.

It is the fastboot mode.

So you may flash anything into the body through your PC attached having installed the proper drivers and using the necessary tools.

But do research for yourself - nobody can teach you all the things you need while discussing it in the forum thread.

Hi!

Regarding the repartition process. I have arrived till the end when you have to do the wipes. The tool says to wipe data, cache and userdata but I'm not sure if those are the same options that CWM offers me. I have only found wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition and wipe dalvik cache in advanced.

Does anyone know if those are the options to select?

Thanks!
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] Leo_83:
Yes I belive does are the same
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] Zaparl:
Well... after all precautions I completed the process and now the phone shows a screen with a message in chinese and a button that does nothing... What should I do?

- Re-run the program again with option 2 (rebuild without backup)

- Re-run the program and select option 3? (restore data)

- Restore the nandroid backup?

The recovery console shows various messages saying: E:can't mount /cache/recovery/command
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] Leo_83:
You didn't do a back up with the program?

I didn't do it because the first time I didn't have a SD card and I didn't get to work. You have to have a SD card and you have to let the program do a back up and restore it at the end.

If nothing else work try to flash stock or stock based rom that include the radios.
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] Zaparl:
Yes, I chose option 1. I thought that was the one that makes a backup. I waited, told him the size of the partition, waited, lots of messages and error messages and then the wipes. Now stuck...
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] Leo_83:
Hm in that case I would try to do it again, I know people have reported having to run a couple of times before it worked for them.
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] Zaparl:
Well... after a few minutes of cold sweat it looks like it worked. The problem was that I put 14 gigs out of the 16. That was too much. I changed to 12 and now the program could restore the data. So far so good. I'm in the process of rooting, etc.

Ouf...

Thanks [MENTION=4771907]Leo_83[/MENTION] and have a happy Christmas eve!

P.S. For those trying to do the same. It is MANDATORY to have a nandroid backup just in case. In my case after the process the phone was unable to find the sdcard. Restoring the nandroid backup solved the problem (and saved me from redoing lots of customizations).

I need your help please.

I used normaly my phone. I turn off the screen. And when I want to turn on : impossible : black screen.

I'll try to restart th ephone (volume up + power) : noway.

Now when I plug the phone with dc the red circle light on. But impossible to have a display on the screen.

I was with Mokee Rom, but at this moment I used normaly my phone.

What do you think, it's possible to repair it or could I return it for reparation ?
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] agora.basta:
0. Find an unbricking instruction, it must be somewhere here in this forum contents. Check if your phone fits the description of any type of brick. Then choose if to do unbricking yourself or send it for repairs. If it doesn't fit brick descriptions, read on -

1. Leave it charging for some 20min. Then try entering recovery. If OK - you're saved, if not - read further -

2. Unscrew the black metal plate covering the battery and other innards. Locate two small contact pads near the battery connector on the mainboard. Short-circiut those contact pads for some 10 sec. That's the equivalent of disconnecting the battery. Then try restarting. If not successful, press and hold all vol-up/vol-down/power buttons at once and while holding them attach the charger, release the buttons and leave the phone to charge and try restarting. If not successful, check if it now fits a brick description from the (0) above, and try unbricking if appropriate.

That's about all that can be done. (But short-circuiting the battery is a trick that saved many pseudo-bricks.)

Is it possible to remove Rayglobe recovery? I installed it purposefully just to install gapps. Now I have gaps installed can i remove rayglobe so i can take advantage of OTA updates from nubia? I can unroot the phone but the updates still work wont since rayglobe is in the way. Obviously flashing back the stock rom would not be the solution as I would lose gapps though?

Thank you for your answer.

Before to post my question I don't found any solution to resolve my problem. If you have some post to link me ... thank you

To answer :

1.- All night phone is connected to charging. Only red circle ON. It was not flashing. He was always on

2.-I unscrew the black metal but I'm not sure.

In the red circle is the connector of the battery. I tried to unpluged it for 10s => nothing.

Did you speak about the in the green circle. I tried but also nothing.

I try all combinaison of buttons, but no way. And the phone is always with a black screen ... Did you have other solution please ?

You have to short two gold-plated pads that appear at the upper left part of your 'red circle'.

The connector cannot be unplugged, it's soldered down.

[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] beatstronger:
After flashing stock ROM 1.42:

- boot into phone and enable usb debugging from developer menu

- install zte drivers (I cannot link anything because I'm a new user of the forum)

- download CWM for Nubia Z7 mini and decompress all its content into a directory (recovery.img file must be in the same folder of adb and fastboot commands)

- open a windows command line (I also opened it with administrator rights) and move to the directory which contains recovery.img and the other files. Then you must write these commands:

1:reboot in bootloader

--> adb reboot bootloader

Phone will reboot and display the Nubia logo. It will freeze into this state

2: test recovery before flashing

--> fastboot -i 0x19D2 boot recovery.img

Phone reboots and after 4-5 seconds loads CWM recovery temporary, in this way you can test if the flash will succeed

--> select "advanced menu" and then "reboot bootloader"

3: flash the recovery

--> fastboot -i 0x19D2 flash recovery recovery.img

--> fastboot -i 0x19D2 reboot

Phone will flash recovery permanently

4. Once the phone has rebooted:

--> adb reboot recovery

In this way the phone will reboot in CWM recovery so you can flash gapps package

stock recovery

This post from the Italian forum , the guy said that installing official Nubia firmware only works with the stock recovery , and doesn't work with cwm or twrp

so my noob question is . if i have cwm installed how to get back to the stock recovery

i'm sorry if it's stupid question :) i'm a noob and interested in this phone , i didn't buy it yet but i will very soon

so i'm watching this thread to learn about this things

CWM recovery

CWM recovery guide freely translated by myself from an italian forum

1.	Completely translated into english and working flawlessly, it’s including nandroid backup/restore

2.	To begin with you need:

- Zte Drivers installed.

- Usb debugging activated in Z7 Mini (tap several times the build number under settings=>about phone in order to get developer status)

- insert your usb cable to telephone and to your PC

- Execute MS-DOS prompt command from your PC in windows being careful to be in the same directory into which you previously saved the recovery.img file

3.	Instructions:

In order to test this recovery these are the steps you have to take:

1:reboot in bootloader

on your PC with the prompt ms-dos command activated be sure to be in the directory where you have downloaded your recovery.img file and type (without the inverted commas and respecting spacing):

“adb reboot bootloader”

The telephone will reboot and will remain fixed on the Nubia logo

2: test recovery before flashing

Type without inverted commas and respecting spacing: “fastboot -i 0x19D2 boot recovery.img”

The telephone will reboot after 4/5 seconds and will enter temporarily into the CWM recovery. With this you will be able to test the relevant functions

To go back to previous point press advanced menu, reboot bottloader

3: flash the recovery

Type without inverted commas and respecting spacing: “fastboot -i 0x19D2 flash recovery.img”, then

“fastboot -i 0x19D2 reboot”

Once the phone has rebboted type:

“adb reboot recovery”

[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] Zoidbergowitsch:
What about using the App "Flashify" for changing the recovery if you are already rooted?

Worked perfect for me.....

Regarding to your problem with no adb devices found:

Maybe you should assign the driver manually, so go to the Device Manager is there a device "Android" when the Phone ist connected where the drivers are not installed properly?

For me (Win 8.1 Pro 64x) the ZTE Composite ADB device worked for that.

The installation of the ZTE driver package only did not work for me too.
