[Meizu Pro 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Greendrake:
Hi Tymcio, I have successfully changed the region of my Meizu Pro 5 M576U using your cool recipie. The proinfo file is now showing machine_type=M576_intl_official even after reboot (the original file showed M576_unicom_custom).

However, I am still unable to unlock the bootloader. It runs instantly and apparently does nothing:

# fastboot devices
04b5add***** fastboot
# fastboot oem unlock
< waiting for device >
...
(bootloader) 16
OKAY [ 0.000s]
finished. total time: 0.000s

So when I restart the phone in fastboot mode it still shows (locked, rooted). The firmware is Flyme 5.1.8.0G. I tried running fastboot from both Mac and Ubuntu.

Any idea why would it not unlock the bootloader and how to unlock it? Thank you in advance!

Problem solved :good:. The key was to do it on the firmware "5.6.1.19 daily".

hi, every time I change the M576_mobile_public string with that M576_intl_official in ProInfo files and then I reboot, to restart the ProInfo file returns as before the change, that is, with the old string. Why?

Change Region

I have bought my Pro Five in a China website and is arrived in asian version.

To translate the international version, I made the effort to go and change the string in the file "ProInfo".

I also tried different text editor but when I opened the file I always saw a black screen with no words.

To convert it to the international version I followed your guide and finally succeeded in full.

I followed the guide to the letter, but I had to change the position of saving the .IMG file. I saved on the root folder of my smartphone instead of in SDCARD as is indicated in the guide at point 5. So it worked out perfectly.

Maybe it's time to correct the point 5 of the guide?

Thank you so much.

---------- Post added at 08:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:02 PM ----------

Looking the your scrrenshot i see that SuperSu version that have installed is not of Chainfire!

Same for Busybox. The right version is of Meefik!

You have to try again with correct apps and everything will resolved. I have just tried and everithing is correct, now i have the international version with active OTA.
[Meizu Pro 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tymcio:
Point 5 is ok :) Check that in files explorer i suggested "SDCARD" folder is the root folder :)

That mean you are not doing it exact as in tutorial.

cp write error operation not permitted

Hello everyone! I tried using the version 5.1.0.3A but for some reason user center doesn't open and one click root option reverts back to not being activated when applied. I also tried other root options without success. So I installed flyme 5.1.9.0A installed and followed the steps and got fine all the way to /system/xbin/busybox cp -f /sdcard/proinfo-MeizuPro5-M576_intl_official.img /dev/block/platform/15570000.ufs/by-name/proinfo. There i got a cp write error operation not permitted response. Any ideas what to do next? Any other versions than 5.1.0.3A where you have succeeded in changing the phone ID?
[Meizu Pro 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Enskan:
Nevermind, problem solved! I tried to cut a corner earlier by downgrading to 5.1.0.3A without wiping data and it seems as only some kind of partial semi-functional downgrade to 5.1.3.0A. Clearing data and downgrading the operating system update procedure resulted in all the steps working and I now have machine_type=M576_intl_official even after reboot! I Mistakenly installed another non Meefik Busybox 1.24.1 version on the first try which resulted in the machine ID reverting after reboot. Good luck, thank you, follow the instructions to the letter on this one :)

Autoupdate not working after ID region changement

Good morning to All,

In 08 of December, following the Tymcio guide, i have changed the id region to my Pro5 with success.

At the end of guide after have installed Flyme 5.1.3.0G to save time i have stopped the autoupgrade to the 5.1.11.0 G and i have copied the update.zip just saved on PC.

Today in Flyme website, i have seen the new version of firmware "5.1.12.0 G". I have checked on "Instrumets/update" if the update was working but the reply is that my version is the last.

Can you help me to resolve this problem?

Thanks in advance.
[Meizu Pro 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tymcio:
It's because Meizu didn't push this update by OTA yet. You can make update manually - update.zip or wait some time for OTA :)

Manually, pushing in wipe data, i lose all my apps. May be better wait some time like you write!! What do you think Tymcio? Thanks Tymcio.

Hello, can you sign out from the logged in Meizu Account, if you can't sign out because you need old password, try reseting the phone (factory reset). It can be done via the reovery menu of the phone (powering up with power button + down volume key). Or in the phone settings at : settings > Save & Storage submenu > Factory reset.

Once operation is complete the phone will boot up as it was brand new, so there won't be any meizu account logged in. Then you could logging into a new one or create one. Root gonna be next door.

First of all, a big thank you for sharing this manipulation that saved me. I had just bought a motherboard and the firmware was in version "A" ...

I have another problem, I logged into my account flyme on the Chinese version "A" and the fact of being in international version did not disconnect me as I thought, so now when I try to connect me I have a message that I am already connected with .......... @ flyme.cn

What can I do to disconnect and be able to reconnect?

Dear XDA Friends!

0). I would like to install Ubuntu Touch / UBPorts on Meizu Pro 5 Android/Flyme version but I'm blocked on the step "0" because I cannot find the required Firmware. I'm searching for hours and the links posted some years ago stopped working...

1). Would you be so kind to post a working link to the Flyme OS 5.1.3.0A Firmare for Meizu PRO 5, please? :)

2). Could you also share the other Firmwares which are needed to get the 5.1.3.0A flashed, please? :)

I suppose that I will probably have to downgrade several times from 6.1.0G => 5.1.3.0A via some intermediate Firmwares... and if you could share these also, I would be very thankful, please :)

3). How can I check what Region/Version I have?

When I try: "Settings" > "About phone", I can see:

"Model: M576H" ; "Android version: 5.1" ; "Build number: Flyme 6.1.0G"

3.1). I don't know how to match my "M576H" versus the below:

machine_type=M576_unicom_custom - U version = China Unicom (my phone)

machine_type=M576_mobile_public - A version = Chinese

machine_type=M576_intl_official - I/G version = International

Thanks in advance and kind regards~~Piotrek~~pe3no

Hi

4G always gives much less signal than 3G unless you're very lucky. My LTE/4G gives 1 dot of signal generally, and was the same on previous phones.

Your S4 probably reported the signal bars differently, leading you to believe you had more signal than you had.

I wouldn't worry about it, it's not a fault.

Hi everybody, i set out to install an Galaxy tab 2 10.1 inch that i had and wasn't using in the car dashboard. And i am finished with all the bondo work and painting and everything. So now its time to setup the galaxy tab itself. So i would appreciate any advice you can share about what you think would be the best Rom for it. Personally i was thinking either CM12 or CM13. And either programing my own launcher for it ( i have an old android tv box launcher project i can probably repurpose for this ) or going the "AutoMate" way. And ofcourse the plan is to install Pushbullet for the notifications from the phone and Here maps for the gps.

Any suggestions or ideas/opinions for Rom, launchers and apps are welcome. I know that the chances of getting a bunch of "google it" responses are pretty high and for those people i have to say i have googled car tablet setups and installs for the last 2 months. :)
