Try this ->

Hi, you should also be able to enter EDL (actually QDL by the USB device name, but it's 05c6:9008 all right) by special power-on procedure, although you might have to try a few times because it's quite tricky to get the timing right:

1. disconnect USB cable and turn the phone completely off

2. press volume-up, and keep it pressed until further notice :)

3. press power button, keep it pressed for about 1/2 a second (yeah, that timing thing...)

4. insert usb cable (both volume-up and power still pressed at this point)

5. wait for short vibration - you should also see the ZUK logo flash on screen for a split second

6. now you can release both power and volume-up, you should already see the USB device coming up on PC

If anything different happens, just disconnect, power-off and start again... Have fun!

i didn't brick my phone, but this is the way i know. Got me a few tries before i got it into edl mode.

THANKS to relghuar for the manual -> original post

BTW i tried Original ZUI too. And i wasn't satisfied... The look is good, yeah, but the performance isn't good at all...

Also the sorting of settings seems weired to me. Reminds me a bit of samsungs crappy settings...

Batterylife was ok. Now i'm back to latest AEX... This hasn't the unique ZUI style, but much better performance.
[Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] czajunia:
Thanks man. Glad to see it's not all lost yet ;) One question though. A bit silly, but how do I know when the phone is fully switched off? I can't see anything on screen, so it's hard to tell. When I hold the power button the phone vibrates once after maybe 10 seconds and if I keep holding the power button, after a short while there is a longer vibrate. Is this when the phone is off actually?

EDIT1: I have been trying this for a while and I am not getting anywhere. Do you think there is a possibility that my phone is stuck at some boot loop and doesn't want to switch off completely? Is this likely to happen? The reason I am asking is that the phone seems to give me a single vibrate every now then regardless how long I hold the power key to switch it off.

EDIT2: Removed the back cover and disconnected the battery to make sure the phone is properly powered off, tried different key combinations following some advice on ZUKFANS and still getting nowhere. I have even re-installed the drivers and software (for no apparent reason) and this didn't help either. Tried different USB ports as well with luck. There is definitely something going on inside the phone as it vibrates when I power it up using different key combinations but it still doesn't show up on my PC. I guess I might have got myself a proper brick. The last thing to try is a different cable (which I don't have a t the moment) but I am not sure why the one I have would stop working all of a sudden. The weird thing is, that my PC does not react at all when I connect the phone - it doesn't recognize any devices or any storage connected which is a bit weird.
[Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] czajunia:
OK. Good news. I managed get the phone back to life by using deepflash cable method. Wasn't that easy, really, and it only happened with a lot of help from zukfans forum members. If anyone is interested how I managed to get the phone back to download mode the details can be found here: https://zukfans.eu/community/threads/hard-brick-because-of-erase-all-with-qfil.8172/
[Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] xSoKeTx:
Hi, I followed the QFIL method to flash the 1.9 rom (I had a multilanguage one). Everything seemed to work correctly but for some reason when I open most apps they close immediately. I can't open the phone or the settings app, so I can't change the language to English or enable USB debugging, which means I can't use ADB or fastboot... I've been trying to somehow get ADB to work with several key combinations but all I get is "unauthorized device" in recovery mode, but I can't authorize it since I can't enable USB debugging. I can't install TWRP either.

Some other apps work, like the OTA app, which I used to download a new version but when I try to install it, it says "failed". I think this issue (apps closing immediately) might be related to the cache partition, but I can't clear it without TWRP or root access. So far I've tried everything I could find but nothing seems to work. The phone is not bricked so there should be something I can do. I need help as soon as possible since I don't have a usable phone right now.

What can I do?
[Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] mar.ur:
Turn off your phone . Press volume down button and connect with a pc . It should be in edl mode . If you have still problem to get in edl mode , use a dp cable . Reflesh zui 1.9.104 with qfil
[Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] AMDFenics:
Did u flash correct Firmware? Z2 / Z2 Plus / Z2 Pro?
[Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] xSoKeTx:
I tried doing that for hours and hours but kept getting the infamous sahara error. After all hope was lost, I tried doing the whole process on a different computer and I could properly flash the rom this time.

Yes, I flashed 1.9.104. I don't know why the first time it didn't work properly, but thankfully everything works now.

Thank you guys.
[Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Ricardoqueiroz:
I'm sorry for reviving this thread, but I'm stuck exactly at the same problem and I've already searched for a solution in zuk fans troubleshooting made by syedtahir16 and I still can't make it. I already made QFIL recognize my ZUK Z2 pro as qualcomm 9008 (EDL MODE) and the name of the folder is short and placed in QFIL' folder. My device is bricked. I would really appreciate if someone could help me with this SAHARA FAIL. How did you get through this?
[Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] mlkj5002:
You sell me your phone?
[Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Ricardoqueiroz:
No, sir. I've already unbricked my device. For those of you who had the same problem don't give up! I was in that same situation and I solved by putting my phone on EDL via this method

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2m44xKog-dI

After plugging the phone for the second time and QFIL recognize as EDL mode I clicked on download content as fast as I could so it started to flash the ROM that I spent like 10h trying to figure a way to do it lol. Anyways, the procedure is the same as putting into EDL via adb fastboot, the only difference is that you make it through a "fake" deep flash cable as that guy in the video shows.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] KruseLudsMobile:
I had WM6 (an unofficial version) on my 8525 somehow, and then got the official version from HTC. When I have the unofficial version there was a very useful Today Screen plugin that took up very little space - just enough room to type something for doing a search. Where can I get that plug-in? Does it ring a bell with anyone?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] chunkymonkey:
The Live search, you mean? If so, download the latest WindowsLive cab and you'll have it again mate.

Live Search does not have the Today Screen plugin, it is just a separate application.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Dr Puttingham:

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] KruseLudsMobile:
Today Screen Search Bar

I tried the one from the triangle powers website, it is huge and takes up too much space on the screen. There is another one I found that is configurable and takes up less room, called searchtoday - here is the link -

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] venelar:
its part of windows live with messenger and all that.

There is an option for the search bar on today screen. Also, read the wiki for the registry hack to make it use google instead of msn.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] KruseLudsMobile:
Windows Live Confusion

- "Windows Live" Confusion Resolved:

1. The file you attached (windows live mobile, search for "Windows Live Mobile.zip") did contain the application that would allow you to have the very thin search bar on the today screen. It puts a "Windows Live" icon on your applications menu(/screen).

2. Microsoft Live Search ("LiveSearch.cab") is a FANTASTIC application. It puts a "Live Search" icon on your applications menu(/screen). It has these small but very powerful applications built into it: Categories, Map, Directios, Traffic, Movies, and Gas Prices. For example for "Gas Prices", that tells you where you can find gas the cheapest - near where you live!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] venelar:
it also has voice recognition. if the version you have doesnt, select update and get it. it's pretty sweet
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] DesiraDavis:
How do I make it an option for the search bar to be on my today screen? I have windows live on my computer now but its only in my menu.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] venelar:
menu>options>today screen options

check the box for the search bar
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] bubbacs:
Quick question.

Can't the files as they are...... .cab be altered to have google by default so that those of us who are scared to death of the registry, can have it work as google?

Just the idea of changing the registry by hand makes me winded and dizzy.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] venelar:
Not a bad idea at all! Give this one a shot, i just changed it.

Any ideas?
[XDA Assist] Droidriven:
Hello,

Welcome to XDA.

You can edit the updater script so that it recognizes your model number correctly by changing the line in the script for "ro.product".

Edit that line and enter the correct ro.product value for your device model(ro.product can be found in your stock build.prop file if you don't know what it is) then save the file and repackage everything correctly for flashing.

Or you can just remove the ro.product line from the script completely but that can be risky depending on anything you didn't get right in your porting of the ROM.

Hey,

i have a Sony Xperia Z2 Tablet SGP521 with cyanogenmod 12. It worked quite good until yesterday. i applied a new cyanogenmod update, just as i did many times before. Battery was 100% and it was standing in my Dockingstation.

Now i cant switch the phone on. Nor can i enter the Downloadmode neither the Recovery Mode. When i plug it into a PC it doesnt get recognized. no LED is on. Also Odin doesnt recognize it.

Any ideas? Maybe the battery is broken? Thanks!

A customer of us had this problem whilst upgrading the original SONY Android. After the upgrade the Tablet was absolutely dead and not recognized by the Computer anymore. It was running flawlessly all the time UNTIL the upgrade and its reboot :(

We sent it to the German SONY repair partner and they had no spare parts for the Z2 Tablet. Something was broken inside.

So our customer got a new Z4 Tablet instead!

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Xajel:
Dear,

I've been using HTC 10 for few months now, served me will.. I liked the USB transfer speed of it, so I've ordered a USB Flash with Type-C port, to be more specific the new model of SanDisk ( Model: SDDDC2-064G-G46 ) pictured below

Using Type-A with a computer was very good, reading reach 140MB/s and writing up to 66MB/s ( writing vary 16-72 )...

But as soon as I used the type-C port in the phone, reading speed was awfully slow, less than 10MB/s and normally 4-5MB/s with maximum reaches 6-7MB/s I thought this was because I was reading from the flash to the microSD ( which is faster than that actually ), so I tried copying to the internal memory which should not be a bottle neck at all, but I got the same speeds...

So I thought it was the problem with the flash it self in the Type-C port.. but few days ago I tried using a Type-C to Type-A adapter and plugged the flash using Type-A side which should be fast looking at above speeds ( 66/140 for w/r ), but I was facing the exact same speeds as before, so it doesn't matter which port I use ( Type-C or Type-A ) I'm always getting those very slow speeds... when using HTC 10's USB OTG... I could not repeat the test with another flash to confirm..

Any body tried this on their HTC 10 yet ?

Dear Team,

I am using TWRP 2.6.0 .

CM 13 version is : cm-13.0-20160807-NIGHTLY-jfltexx.zip

GApps version is : (ARM , 6.0,Nano)

I flash the zips after each other, then wipe DalvikCache and reboot.

But then the phone goes into the boot loop, with message "optimizing apps x of 23" appearing every 5 min.

I have tried various sequence but to no avail.

Other links on forums are not so recent.

Please help

Update your recovery.

And do a clean flash. Wiping dalvik cache is not clean flashing.

Thanks a lot.

It was indeed TWRP version. I upgraded from 2.6.x to 2.8.5 and then did Advance Wipe (Dalvik + Data+ System+Cache) and then Flashed the ROM and GApps siultaneously.

And it worked like a charm !!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] DaddyGoFast:
Ok FINE! After being ignored for two days, I thought I would help the New folks out here get this working!

I got it working and all is FINE! Here is what I did. I will not post links so I do not violate any sort of TOS in this site.

After I upgraded to the new ROM from HTC's site (the official ATT ROM not anything cooked) I upgraded my Activesync to 4.5 (must have this version)

Then I downloaded BBC Desktop 4.0.0.18 (google it)

Then I downloaded BBC for the PPC 4.0.0.91 (google it)

Install the Desktop stuff first then the one on the PPC. Once installed, REMOVE THE USB.

Once it is installed on the PPC, let it is come up on it's own. If it does not reboot it, go to Start -> Setting and click on the System tab. Click the BB icon. It will ask what services, select Cal for now. Click Next through until is restarts. It will then tell you that it is ready for first use. From there, you may need to reboot your device.

You should now have the BB icon in the bottom part of the Today screen. Click it. It will take you the BB settings sections. Let it spool and get a PIN. This may take several minutes. You will then notice it connects and gets an IP. You are almost home at this point. Once it says Connected in the Status tab you are good to connect it back to the USB cord.

For BES applications, make sure the computer you use for work is connected to your MS Server or network or whatever you do to ensure you are getting emails on your work computer. This will ensure your BB Desktop software can "see" your server. Once you know you have "LAN" connection, open the BBC Desktop software and let it find your device. Click on the "Configure Device" button on the bottom center of the BBC Desktop app and VIOLA!

I hope this helps!

I am not able to find BBC Desktop 4.0.0.18 version even after googling , just to make sure is it 4.0.0.18 or 4.0.0.84. Is this desktop component mandatory , can i skip it . I am new to all this. My company gave me a number to call to activate the service . It was a sort of *56436 ;just an example. But i cant call this number as i have AT&T service , it says check the number.May be this number is callabe from a blackberry device ? Please let me know if you are aware what setup they have.

I have At&T unlimited data plan . Do i need to switch to BIS plan from them .Is 3G internet available on BIS. My company asked me to add my company email (and provided me with a temporary password) and asked me to click on activate button . does this mean they have Black berry Enterprise server ?

The BB network is available on my phone but the PIN and IP are pending. Is this due to taht i dont have BIS enabled from them?

I tried contacting Huawei Customer Support if they can help me with my problem but didn't receive any response from them. I also have read one of the threads here that I cant just simply use other country's update to my unit as it has different region and such (correct me if I understand it wrong). I would greatly appreciate it if you can spoonfed me the step by step procedures on how I can update my Unit.

Just download the B355 Update.app and place in the dload folder on your sdcard. Then open the EMUI Update App, press on menu on the bottom and then "update from local file". B355 should be listed there.

If the Update fails at under 10% with the message "incompatible version", try updating to B146 first.
