same problem i have, did you find a solution yet? please share!
[LeEco Le 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] FridrufHau:
When I try to restore your system backup it ends with :

extractarfork() process ended with error: 255

My own backup to go back to custom worked, so I don`t know what I did wrong. I don`t find a simple way to get back to eui x527 19s version without loosing imei/baseband.... and I have no backup of this. I am afraid of loosing LTE B20 for Germany if I am on other bootloaders/modems

And after all this back and forth I always wiped as described I now have carbon rom hapily but, there is some data I couldn't delete, please see picture

edit: problem solved

I've tried and tried to download the proper drivers but when it tried to update drivers the install fails.. ADB Devices won't pick up my phone. In device manager it shows an error with the ADB Interface in the Other Devices tab but shows that it's connected to the Le3 Unger the Portble Devices tab... Any help on which driver to download and how to properly update the ADB interface would be awesome.. Thanks

Hi. Thanks for this tutorial.

I have issues installing TWRP on a Chinese Le S3... When step 9 of "unlocking and rooting" is done the phone reboots in normal mode and not with TWRP. I am pretty sure I have done everything right. Do you have any ideas? I am quite stuck on this...
[LeEco Le 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Chokolator:
Sorry to flood but HELP please :/
[LeEco Le 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] emkorial:
Well, I got to

- Mount > Enable MTP

There was no " Enable MTP" button. Just a "Disable MTP" button. I tapped it and it turned into "Enable MTP", I tapped that again. Nothing seemed to happen

- Copy entire TWRP folder from internal storage to your computer

No idea how on earth to do that. The phone does not show up in windows Explorer if that's what's expected

- Copy SuperSU zip from your computer to root of internal storage

Same as above

I rebooted from TWRP and the phone now appears to not boot, just sits at the "Le Eco" logo. Great
[LeEco Le 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] emkorial:
OK, got myself sorted. One question: Do you have to flash TWRP to recovery? I would like to keep the stock recovery. Can I boot TWRP, flash SuperU.apk, then reboot the phone without flashing TWRP recovery?
[LeEco Le 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] allrockedout:
[MENTION=6699128]rczrider[/MENTION] thanks for this got everything setup in like 30 minutes.

TWRP is a recovery if you root your phone and mess something up and can't boot than you would have to come back here and flash TWRP to flash a backup or a custom rom. You should keep TWRP on your phone if your rooting or flashing custom roms. If you don't know how to use it we are here to help :good:
[LeEco Le 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] emkorial:
I'm only flashing stock ROM's which need to be flashed via the stock recovery method (rename file to update.zip and System Update -> Local Update). So TWRP is no good for me.

I still would like root, and I see you can boot TWRP without flashing it, so can you boot TWRP, install the SuperSU.zip, and not flash TWRP and have persistent root?
[LeEco Le 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] emkorial:
So this straight up doesn't work. Booted TWRP, flash SuperSU.zip, rebooted, no root access. Tried it again, same thing.

Hi,

when I try to run 'fastboot boot twrp.img' iget an error 'Failed <Remote Dtb not found>'. I tried the following two files 'me.twrp.twrpapp-26.apk' and 'me.twrp.twrpapp-22.apk'. Anything that I missed?

I have a question. The x522 only temporary unlock bootloader.

I already have customer rom installed now.

If I want to flash another ROM, I need to unlock bootloader again then flash the rom, right?
[LeEco Le 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] allrockedout:
Nope once you have unlocked bootloader installed TWRP and flashed root and custom Rom you don't have to unlock bootloader again unless you go completely back to stock Rom and stock recovery
[LeEco Le 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] emkorial:
Sp I installed root and now my phone is locked in zoom mode. And going into Display settings and setting it to standard doesnt work, it tells you that you need to reboot, you reboot, and it's still in zoom mode. WTF?

After finishing it all, it seems my phone isn't rooted

I did everything like it's written

After I finished, I installed root checker app and it says my phone isn't rooted

Why is that?
[LeEco Le 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] rodogg88:
i would like an answer to this too. I have done this for other phones where I keep the stock recovery, boot into twrp and them install superuser. have never seen the need to install twrp unless you installing a custom rom but if you modifying the stock rom (removing stock apps, etc) there is no need to install twrp, just root the device. im gonna try it on the s3 sometime in the future, just need to backup anything i dont want to lose first.
[LeEco Le 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] rachit011:

Device not booting

My device is not booting up and is stuck on manufacturer's logo. Also, twrp is replaced by stock recovery. What can i do now?
[LeEco Le 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Dudeonyx:
Use fastboot to reflash twrp
[LeEco Le 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Dudeonyx:
also it seems that on 19s the stock kernel refuses to boot after a restore, so you'll have to flash a custom kernel like illusion or overload

would i be able to flash superuser while using twrp in read only mode and without wiping anything? I have installed superuser on a redmi 3s using this method but the redmi 3s bootloader was unlocked. the leeco s3 seems to be temp unlock. i also cant backup my phone if i use twrp in readonly.

Hi guys,

The first page has the "Download latest official TWRP, place file in ADB installation folder, and rename to "twrp.img": https://twrp.me/devices/leecole2.html" but the link is broken. Can someone give me an updated link? Thanks in advance.
[LeEco Le 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] SDACymru:
I went directly to the twrp.me site and downloaded it. Now I am stuck.

I followed the instructions step by step but I am stuck at Install > select SuperSU zip > swipe to flash. I have copied the downloaded file into LeEco Le 2\Internal Storage but I do not see it when I am in TWRP and I can't seem to get past this point. Any help? Thanks.
[LeEco Le 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] SDACymru:
Just want to say that I ended up getting through this by downloading the rom and superSu directly from the phone. Thanks to the OP for a pretty straightforward set of instructions. I appreciate it.

[LeEco Le 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] egenesis:
I am stuck at logo saying "LeEco Share the Eco World" but nothing is happening.

I did the following successfully before the issue started

11. If it asks, tap "Keep Read Only" button (probably doesn't matter, but whatever) - DONE

12. Wipe > Format Data - DONE

13. Make backups (I suggest boot, recovery, and system since this will allow you to return everything to stock later on) - ERROR

Backup is where the problem started. I tried to backup the boot, recovery, firmware and system but it failed with Error 55 I believe which said "cannot create backup read only file system". I thought this was due to clicking the "Keep Read Only" on step 11. So I restarted but now it did not go past the logo. I went to recovery and try to do the clean and it did not work either. adb devices show the device as unauthorized. I am not sure where to head from here ... Any help is appreciated. Thanks!!
[LeEco Le 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] rodogg88:
Go back into recovery and restore the backup
[LeEco Le 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] egenesis:
I resolved it. I went back to fastboot, unlocked it and loaded twrp from computer(non flash). This time, the backup went fine. Seemed like something went wrong the first time. LineageOS is installed, no issue at all. Thank you devs and other helpers!!

Hello, I hope you or someone else can help me with my issue. I bricked my x620 and had to fix it via flashtool program. I installed rescue rom then twrp recovery, but no matter which rom I try to flash via twrp recovery my device doesn't boot. I can only flash flashtool roms. Thanks

I am facing the exact same issue as you in my Le2...can you please detail down the steps as in how you finally rooted the Le2?
[LeEco Le 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Excorio:
I've tried this several times, on my X620 with 5.9.026S (reverted from 5.9.028S which sux) on it, but i always end up with a Orange state phone at step 9.

After fastboot boot twrp.img the phone wants to start up again.... So during the on-screen countdown to zero i hold Vol+ and PWR to boot into TWRP, so before the counter is at zero i'm out of fastboot.... But then i dont end up in TWRP, i end up on the standard recovery screen and on there it says "Orange state. Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted. Your device will boot in 5 seconds.". After 5 seconds it boots up the phone like it normally would. I cannot get into TWRP. I locked the bootloader again, phone works like it always has, but no root ofcourse...

- adb reboot bootloader -> works: fastboot screen is showing on screen.

- fastboot oem unlock-go -> works: (bootloader) Start unlock flow OKAY 3.5s

- fastboot flash recovery twrp.img -> works: target reported bla bla bla sending 'recovery'... OKAY ... writing 'recovery'... (bootloader) Fastboot oem devices is unlock OKAY 0.3s, finished bla bla bla . Then on the phonescreen it starts a count down timer?

So why am i redirected to the stock recovery even tho im booting into recovery before the timer hits zero. Why is it going into orange state? I have tried several, old and new(er) twrp img's but no go, some even gave me a "too many links" error? And i was following the same steps. I'm confused lol...
[LeEco Le 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] onlytanmoy:

Edit: I Was able to get to stock fastboot menu but i cannot get back twrp using the "fastboot boot twrp.img" or "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" commands, and exiting the stock fastboot menu brings me back to my problem.

Stuck in stuck recovery bootloop

I'm a relative noob, so I apologize in advance for what will probably be a simple step that I'm missing, but here's my problem...

I followed all of OP's steps to unlock and root my X522. I'm using a Linux laptop running Fedora 22, but I've rooted a couple devices using it, so I understand it's slightly different than using Windows.

Everything went exactly as planned until step 17 - Reboot > Bootloader. I typed the commands into the terminal, but I'm confused about what the "recovery twrp.img" is. There was no step saying I need to create a file with that name. I copied the entire TWRP folder onto my computer in step 15. Is that related to "recovery twrp.img"?

Anyway, I appear to be in the stock recovery bootloop. Hitting the Restart button doesn't kick me out of the bootloop. Any suggestions?

Thank you OP.

My new x522 is stuck in the LeEco bootup screen.

I think I was following all the steps perfectly until step 13, make backups. But I did not get an option for step 14, mounting. I also do not have SuperSU 2.78 copied over to the phone.

I can power the phone off, and reboot into recovery. I get to the screen with the options "update system" and "clear data". Perhaps the best way to attack this is to put an update.zip file in the root of an SD card...? I am just guessing here, and wouldn't be sure how to do that even if it were right... :)

I would appreciate any help. TIA!

i apologize for waking such an old thread, but i've been searching for hours and this guide has been the closest to what i need help on. specifically faq 1 about the usb drivers and getting the "waiting for device". The FAQ says to roll back the driver to something pre 2014 but i have been unable to find anything online for older drivers. I'm using a leeco le s3, and unable to find specific oem drivers. the phone shows up in windows device manager fine when booted normal, but as soon as i switch it to fastboot mode it shows up as android with a yellow triangle symbol. So i know it's a driver issue but have been unsuccessful on two windows computers trying various drivers.

Any help is greatly appreciated!!
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Huff009:
So, I have gone into Settings --> Backup & reset --> Backup. I've turned the toggle on for "Back up to Google Drive". Below that it lists a section to choose my Google account, which I have done. It also shows a list of items including Apps, Call history, Device settings, etc. All show recent dates/times for backup.

A couple of questions, however. Under apps it only shows a very select few Google apps, and one third party app, but that's all. Also, where is this backup going? I have looked in my Google Drive and am unable to find any corresponding folder, or data of any kind. Am I missing something? Have I missed a setting?

Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks in advance.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] uicnren:
apps specifically have to be enabled by the developer to backup to google drive. it does not backup all apps.

until the last few days you could not see backups on google drive, this however is changing with a slow rollout. you should soon see (if you dont already) a 'Backups' folder in the root of your google drive, clicking on it should bring a list of all your devices currently backing up to google drive. clicking on the specific device, should then bring up a list of whats currently being backed up, and when.

Hello. This is locked to Bell. It already got the 60% battery update a while back.

I will NOT be using this as a phone. It will be used for other purposes like outdoor remote wifi cam or something so I need the wifi working.

I have a note 5 rooted running a note 7 rom and I keep getting the message from Samsung popping up on my phone to return it - I hope they don't disable my cellular / wifi / Bluetooth - wonder if I should flash a note 5 rom to be sure
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] THS1989:
That's not a smart idea... Very risky. I'd flash a Note 5 ROM.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] KingRaheel:
Its not an issue according to me because if they have to disable cellular etc then it will be in form of a stability update to trick people. Your phone will be affected only if the developer of the note 7 rom uses a new base firmware. Since you have a note 5, they cant even disable your imei number just because you use grace ux. I would prefer deleting samsung push service, Fota update service & KLMS agent apks from root (There can be something i am missing. If so please specify). Perhaps it may stop those messages

ahah funny how she never got the sms from rogers informing of the block.

I went over to see her yesterday. Flashed her phone again, blocked everything like mine with debloater, just in case. (she didn't have anything blocked and update never was pushed suprisingly.)

Now its fishing time. Sitting quietly, waiting to see what happens.

[Samsung Gear S3] Steveborough:
Are there carrier delays for firmware updates like with regular phones? My ATT S3 has yet to receive Samsung's latest firmware. I play not, ATT is a joke when it comes to firmware timing.
[Samsung Gear S3] Bladder61:
Yes there are usually delays with the carrier models. I have the Gear S2 and S3 on T-Mobile. I have always gotten updates for the S2 a little while after the wifi versions got the Samsung update.
[Samsung Gear S3] optimummind:
Carriers are mostly slower to release firmware updates but sometimes faster.

From Nov of 2015 to Nov of 2016 for my AT&T Gear S2 3G, all firmware updates except for one came later than the unlocked Gear S2 models. AT&T was faster than Verizon & T-Mobile though.
[Samsung Gear S3] Steveborough:
So Gear S3 updates will come from the carrier as opposed to straight from Samsung?
[Samsung Gear S3] Bladder61:
Yes the carrier controls our firmware, think of it just like most cell phones. Usually the manufacturer releases an update and then each carrier will adapt it into their next firmware update. Right now only AT&T and T-Mobile have the LTE version of the S3. We will see which carrier releases an update first.
[Samsung Gear S3] Steveborough:
Who cares who releases 1st, they both take forever compared to Samsung, ugh! Combined with a $25 monthly (with taxes) on AT&T I'm leaning towards returning for LTE-less
