I finally managed to install it on my MX5. I had some problems installing the ADB drivers, but I figured it out eventually. I will shortly describe how and tomorrow or the day after I will write my detailed how to.

When I was trying to manually select/install the USB driver file (located in Meizu phone when set to CD) I bumped in to a windows error. Windows said this is a ''corrupt or been tampered'' file blabla. So I disabled the driver signature verification via this method .

Did that procedure rebooted and installed the USB driver in device management - you'll see a yellow exclamation mark on ADB-driver click on it and manually search for the USB driver folder you copied from your phone, and install. Then I disconnected my device from USB and I killed adb service (adb.exe) from DeviceManager. I re-connected my MX5 and then I ran "adb devices" the .bat file in the downloaded adb folder, see first post. Now there was an .android file created in my C: drive and I added the adb_usb.ini in it (just make a txt file and remove txt into .ini.) don't forget to add 0x2a45 in it, but you can read this in the first post.

Then I followed the instructions from the first post, I used this - dd if=/sdcard/system-i.img of=/dev/block/platform/mtk-msdc.0/by-name/system - for my MX5 (575M).

[IMG="CMD"]http://i.imgur.com/Iz5TzK5.jpg[/IMG]

Waited a bit, my MX5 wasn't working anymore as mentioned, so I shut it down by holding the power button. I rebooted it again, and it was optimizing all my android apps, waited a bit for that and I was running the international rom version. Thanks 29y6145

I said you before.

To decompres DAT to EXT4 you can follow this tutorial:

Just unzip the update, and run in a folder with the 3 binaries:

Dear Ha Noi, thank you for your work. Many Turkish M2 Note users now using their devices in Turkish language.

I have last one question, some users cant find the adb_usb.ini file in Windows 10

do you have any idea how can we do this in Windows 10

Thanks mate.

I dont know why you dont do it with terminal emulator, it is lot faster than connecting the phone, installing drivers..

If it's not in the .android folder, you'll need to create it yourself with notepad and don't forget to replace the .txt by ini. and to add 0x2a45 in the file.

Cannot perform last command, it shows there is no file system-i.img

As you can see the file is in the root of M2 note, as on the screen.

What is wrong ? Please help :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] abaggie:
I'm not sure, but it seems like there is to much space between i.img. Double check that line. If not maybe someone else knows, rest seems fine to me.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] supercowz:
Put the file on internal memory not external sdcard..

Rename your system-i.img to system.img and

dd if=/sdcard/system.img of=/dev/block/platform/mtk-msdc.0/by-name/system

[Miscellaneous Android Development] abaggie:
Did you give super user permission (pop up on your phone) after typing su? And again play around with your spaces, because the command should be EXACTLY the same as that of the start post.

Or try it in the terminal emulator, same procedure, but you can then copy paste the correct command to the emulator. Don't forget to set the sleep of your display to 10 minutes, or else it could interfere the procedure. Of course you should be rooted and have busybox or SuperSU installed.

I tried to install on MX4 Pro when it had 4.2.8.2A (KitKat ROM) and IT BRICKED! I resolved by Meizu recovery, reinstalling update.zip (4.2.8.2A stable KK).

Just installed 4.5.5I OFFICIAL coming from 4.5.3A (test firmware but LOLLIPOP!).

To finish my warning: IF YOU WANT TO INSTALL I FIRMWARE (only Lollipop because update.zip for LP are system-new ecc), YOU HAVE TO BEGIN WITH LOLLIPOP A FIRMWARE!

I hope this advice will be useful!

P.S. to convert system (very very EASY) just follow this guide (with images): https://meizufans.eu/forum/topic/25...ional-firmware-on-your-chinese-mainland-meizu

You saved me . That was my problem. I was trying directly from kitkat. Now went to to 4.5.5A via upgrade and then to 4.5.5I with adb and even instlled xposed without clearing data and i have a perfect behaving mx4pro untill now. If something appears then i will do factory restore to 4.5.5I.

But it is weird, with this we can compile a kernel to the Meizu M1 Note, but to replace the kernel we have to flash the boot.img (inside it is the kernel).

Would be posible to replace the kernel on a running phone? Using "dd" whith the correct partition, as we do with the system.img

Maybe there is another way to replace kernel, I dont know.

it's impossible to write while Android is running. You don't have right permission!

Maybe it's possible while in Recovery (TWRP or CWM), but I'm not completely sure.

Fastboot is out of the question, because "fastboot flash boot NewKernel.img" is a command that needs an unlocked bootloader, it's not a generic flash.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] iicc:
When we flash system.img to get the international rom, we are writing while Android is running, that is why I have asked it.

Yes, you can flash kernel with a custom recovery.

I think we could flash a kernel with this script:

I think a lot of FC occurs if you don't reboot asap.

I know you can flash kernel with custom recovery, in fact is the only way we can procede, but I'm not sure if bootloader is locked what can happens.

Fastboot as I already said is out of the question because when you type "fastboot flash boot NewKernel.img" it returns error cause bootloader is locked and you can't unlock it with "fastboot oem unlock"
[Miscellaneous Android Development] iicc:
Yes, with fastboot is imposible to unlock bootloader. With SP Flash Tools also impossible, even in Meta mode.

Maybe with Volcano Box but it is expensive..
