[Zuk Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dalviking:
Thanks a lot Extentho for your feedback.

I've already tried your fair suggestion: unfortunately, I'm stuck at the end of sideloading the signed .zip.

In fact, I see on screen logs that it's applying the update "unconditionally" (that sounds good), but nevertheless, when finished it returns "xfer: 1.00x" on PC shell and in recovery menu, on device.

Now, either if I reboot or power down and boot it again, the result is the same: still bootloop-ing.

Of course, at any other attempts leveraging on administrative privilege, it says that "device is locked", including those done through the shell tool.

Some excerpts from my last launched commands:

[Zuk Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Extentho:
You must have the phone in sideload mode. There is an option to sideload in recovery menu.

Then use the command to sideload from the toolkit. The stock rom must pe renamed sideload and placed on desktop.

If the phone communicates in any way with pc, there is still hope. When you start the sideload process from pc, the phone should show an animation showing the flashing process. Post some pictures from where you are stuck, so i can make an idea about what is going on

my zuk z1 stuck to bootloop,

and android debugging is disabled.

phone can not detecting in fastboot mode.

please help.
[Zuk Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dalviking:
I've tried also with the toolkit, but it's heavy bugged (also in 5.4 version) and, after all, it gets the exact same problem like me (not surprising, it launches my same commands :) ).

There's no useful image or snapshot I can share, because I see the animated green android logo moving its antennas on my device, while logs below saying that it's verifying package and then it's unconditionally overwriting system partition.

It seems all so normal and plain.

At the end of the process, no "installation complete" message, but simply I get back to recovery menu (where I started from).

In other attempts, I also wiped cache and user data, prior to rebooting, just to test if it was going to change something, but no luck.

The phone reboots, the "Cyanogen" logo starts to glow for 7/8 times and then... bzzzz, short vibration and all over again (i.e. bootloop).

I tried with an older official signed .zip from Cyanogen OS (cm-12.1-YOG4PAS3AJ-ham-signed, instead of newer cm-12.1-YOG4PAS3OH-ham-signed), but even worst, it fails at "verify package" step, aborting procedure.

MD5 signatures triple-checked each time versus source.

I saw some threads where it seems possible to change the bit, on system image, controlling developer option, to manually post-enable unlocking, but it's suitable only for Nexus or OnePlus One. No instructions for ZUK Z1.

Or maybe do I need a "donor" sharing a stock .zip with this option yet enabled?

Bootloop would be still there, but I possibly could enable to "flash", "boot" and "shell" vs the device, giving me much more options to try.

One last doubt anyway. If I press "Volume Down" + "Power" button at boot, I get into a menu like this:

http: // postimg.org/image/s5badiefh/ (remove extra spaces).

Viewing other examples posted on forums, I noted that at least the "Factory reset" is missing.

Could it be an hint for anything useful?
[Zuk Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Extentho:
For me, this method worked exactly as described, booting into stock rom correctly.

now, if you mentioned it in the picture, there is another option. so, i ve noticed too this menu. There is an app called QPST wich can help you. Follow this thread: http://xdaforums.com/zuk-z1/help/bricked-zuk-z1-t3277257 .

So when you enter in QFIL, connect the phone to computer and boot with volume down+ power into this menu from your picture. The Qfil app should detect some ports. You must choose the 9008 one, from what i have read.

Anyway, for me this method, didn t work because the pc couldn t detect the right port, only the zuk tookit did it for me.

You read the thread i suggested, and try that method, it may work for you.
[Zuk Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dalviking:
Thanks again Extentho.

I saw QPST trick, but it's not catching right port and/or not getting right permission to stop phone from re-booting.

I think that adb/toolkit method should work also for me. I made attempts with other official ROMs: I noticed that for the older ones, the result is a bit different. They get stuck in a "black screen + notify led lighted in blue" state, rather than bootlooping.

Maybe erasing system partitions is needed, but I'm very reluctant to such dangerous way, without expertised advice.

Weirdest thing is that I did anything to get this situation, I just found my device in this mess.

Of course ZUK official support is well silent at my requests.
[Zuk Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Extentho:
Try to post some pics about the troubles you encounter. If we receive a solution, this may be helpful for all of us in the future. Now, exactly, what can you acces on phone(recovery, fastboot, )?

Also, check varios threads from other phones with the same problems(one plus one, lg , htc) ,etc. Find a solved situation like yours, and we may adapt that solution to you
[Zuk Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dalviking:
Hi guys,

Just to close this topic.

I was finally able to install the ZUI ROM through the QFIL program.

It's a little bit tricky, due to the fact that it is strongly suggested:

- to use a Windows 7 machine started without Signature Enforcement enabled;

- to start QFIL (admin mode) and be prepared with all needed files loaded in its GUI;

- to power off the phone, then, while pressing volume up button, inserting the USB cable, attached (better if) on a 2.0 port to PC;

- to be fast pressing "Download" button on QFIL program.

After that, I unlocked the bootloader and performed a lot of alternative recovery process.

So, I installed on the device:

- ZUI ROM

- Cyanogen OS convert from ZUI ROM

- Cyanogen OS last updated ROM

- CyanogenMod 12.1 last nightly ROM

- CyanogenMod 13.0 last nightly ROM

and the winner is...

...

...

...

... none of the above.

Each time the very same behaviour: bootloop. So, my last conclusion is: hardware failure (I guess wi-fi module).

I give up.

But for anyone searching a safe way to unlock a bootloader without accessing to developer options: the QFIL method works like a charm (once installed properly).

Thanks for support.

Known issues:​

Encryption

So Encryption is working but don't use it for now because GSM radio will not be able to start correctly and TWRP will not be able to mount /data. You can try just for fun. The flashing procedure take care to prepare the device for a possible encryption in the futur but will not encrypt the device. (go into Settings/Security/Encrypt. Don't forget to set a PIN/passphrase/schema before)

Battery doesn't charge when the device is off on a sector charger

Don't panic if your device hasn't any power and can't start when you press Power button. It is not dead (It happens to me during my test).

So simply connect your phone in usb to a computer. The led should be red/orange. Keep it like this. After few minutes the device will start and you will see the Sony logo. If it display a battery on screen, you can press power button to start the device. Once done, go in airplane mode and wait to have around 10%. Of course you can enable fast charge and plug the device quickly to an adapted charger (1A).

also my pc cannot detect my phone too ==>ERROR ==> Device Descriptor Request Failed erroe in device manager

i install driver but my pc cannot detect my phone ..

why?

please help...i want this rom:( :( :(
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Fir3lordZuk0:
Uninstall & reinstall driver and check.

If not successful, try this:

1. Disable Driver signature enforcement:

http://www.isunshare.com/windows-8/...gnature-enforcement-in-windows-8-and-8.1.html

Google for Win 7 or Win 10 procedure.

2. Go to Device manager. Connect device again and give the correct path for drivers. U will get warning for driver signature but install it anyway.

Now your device will be detected in ADB & Fastboot

"The Device is charging from a socket charger"

but i disconnect the charger

why?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Fir3lordZuk0:
Make sure you are installing correct drivers. Try the attached divers.

Connect device in fastboot mode (Hold Volume Up Key and insert USB cable) and make sure you immediately give path for drivers. It should work.

And no USB port is not damaged, it happens sometime to me as well. Just hard reset once (Hold Power +Volume Up for 3 seconds)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] secretdevil:
so why Xperia Diagnostic show me that result??? ... i posted it

You can anytime use 'Emma' to flash stock firmware.

Run Emma & connect device to PC by holding Volume down button.

Then you can repartition again and flash 6.0

So my phone switched off over the night.

I followed the steps as mentioned above and Sony logo shows up and then i could boot the phone. But when i put it in airplane mode and enable fast charge, it did not charge and switched off again.

What I did:

Connected USB cable & did wait for Sony Logo.

Device started, connected wall charger on OneOfAKind Logo.

(If the device dont start and shows battery icon, turn in on by pressing Power button and connect to wall charger).

Basically when u see Sony logo, disconnect USB & connect to wall charger :)

well,the mm rom itself is not repartition ur sdcard at all,to do that u have to do it manualy,so it is u that have to make the repartitioning part,so first of all,u have to do the repartition,after that push the TWRP that is in the zip of the mm rom,pass that to FOTA partition and reboot into TWRP again,don't worry if u see that it can't mount the sdcard,it is normal,but for easier way to fallow all the process,look at this video til the part with the pushing the rom and installing the rom,when u finish that,just continue with the process from the first page on this forum right after the partitioning,u will do it in no time if u r careful of what u see and what u write when u do the process :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K9u_0iSWwGo

Hey guys. I've been using this rom since the first release and I got to say it's really awesome, very stable and all. But I'm struggling with a little problem that I was not able to solve by myself. The thing is I use telegram and for some reason I don't receive any notifications from it (tried more than one version of telegram), even though everything works fine with whatsapp and all other apps. I repartitioned and made a clean install of all 3 versions (of this rom) but the problem still persists. The only thing that always happens is the message "unfortunately google play services sas stopped working" (that i tried solving by installing other versions of gapps and everything possible) when i fresh install the rom... It goes away after 30 minutes of use. Does someone have any idea of what's happening?
