With TWRP.
[ZTE Nubia Z17 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] verifiedthug:
Hey! I tried this after running GizFlasher. I hit 1 and enter. The phone enters fastboot but it gives options such as 1. Reboot system now 2. Go into recovery 3. nubia emergency recovery 4. reboot to eload mode 5. power down. I am unsure what to do in this place. Please help. thanks.
[ZTE Nubia Z17 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] OperatorB:
After the phone boots into Fastboot mode you should see some text saying like 'device status: unlocked' . After that leave the phone alone and go back to the computer's command line terminal.

Then press a key to see the menu again (if you are not there). Then press "2 - Flash TWRP da fastboot". It will start to install TWRP on android.

Now you just wait until the phone opens TWRP when it finished installing.

Finally you can exit from terminal by "X" exit or press "0" then hit enter in menu.

I hope you succeed! :cyclops:

All right! The only problem seems to be that the pc does not see the phone.

For troubleshooting you may first check the drivers on your computer. Secondly make sure that "USB debugging" and "Enable OEM unlock" are turned on in the phone. Finally check the script file for spelling mistakes if you have edited it.

Write how did it go!
[ZTE Nubia Z17 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] verifiedthug:
It still gives the same error. I have installed all driver on my WIN 10. All settings have been enabled on my Phone. OEM and debugging and also *#7678# is double ticked.

when the phone enters fast boot. It shows a menu. is that menu supposed to show up?
[ZTE Nubia Z17 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] OperatorB:
Yes fastboot menu is normal to be displayed.

And also check to have all the needed files in one place. My last guess is to check if you have data cable or only charging cable and the connection is firm.

Also try restart both systems.

Final thing is to save your personal files from the phone and do a complete wipe. Otherwise i have no idea, sorry.

By the way do you see the Device status: unlocked at Fastboot menu?
[ZTE Nubia Z17 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] verifiedthug:
No there is no message such as Unlocked. I don't think my cable is a problem because the phone does respond to the code. it puts into fastboot.
[ZTE Nubia Z17 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] OperatorB:

Hello to everyone,

I have a Nubia z17 mini, and I tried to flash the global Eu rom from the nubia website.

First I tried to make a local update to flash it directly without having to unlock the bootloader, but the phone aboards at ca. 28% and says that I should check the package. (I tried diffrent ones, no luck),

Then I thought, I'll unlock the bootloader and flash it manually. When I go to setting I can find the USB debugging mode, but their is no oem unlock option. (Dev. settings are enabled). Well I thought I can unlock the bootloader either way, but when I start the gizflasher, it just reboots into the fastboot mode. In addition, when I try to contact the device through adb (fastboot devices), the device is getting found but it says offline. I wanted to enter the emergency recovery of nubia, but if I click in the the fastboot mode, the phone just reboots.

I should mention that it is a NX569J, but in cooperation with china mobile.

I hope you can help me.

Thank you in advance

Rom for Nubia Z17 Mini S NX589J? ??*♂️

Any one knows where we could find the global EU rom for the new Nubia Z17 Mini S NX589J? Or when it will be released? ???
[ZTE Nubia Z17 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] OperatorB:
I can not tell you the exact solution due to not having such stock phone so my suggest is to go a little manual and first focus on unlocking bootloader if you desperate and determined enough.

You might want to go through this : https://www.getdroidtips.com/unlock-bootloader-zte/
[ZTE Nubia Z17 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] OperatorB:
There is no official EU rom for Z17 mini S as far as i know. Nubia software team is not on the top i think, the company is focusing on designing new phones asap to conquer space on the market.

Google playstore on Nubia Z17 Mini S NX589J

Oh ok... To bad. I found a chinese originale rom. But EU rom or EN rom would be better. As i can’t read chinese... Any idea which version of gapps i should get or where to download the correct version? I have been able to unlock bootloader and root with trwp. But i dont think i have the good or right version of gapps. As after installing the zip of gapps and rebooting, i do see google playstore on phone. But when i click on it, it crashes or do not open? ?
[ZTE Nubia Z17 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] OperatorB:
If your hardware is surely matching then give one more try to the script by following the steps of the guide after the error is shown.

If no luck then you might want to go manual as well to unlock bootloader firstly then flash custom recovery.

Check out this: https://www.getdroidtips.com/unlock-bootloader-zte/ - Regarding to commands you can try using the device code name and syntax from the script combined appropriately with the commands from getdroidtips.com
[ZTE Nubia Z17 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] spikerspike97:
I tried this. My problem is, that there is NO OEM Unlock option on my device.

And if I type in fasboot devices (Phone in bootloader) , it finds the device but it says offline.

Why is that?

Thank you a lot!
[ZTE Nubia Z17 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] OperatorB:
This is the official site: http://opengapps.org/

You should select ARM64, android version that you can check, and the variant according to what google services you need. :fingers-crossed:

Note: Some time ago i tried an official ROM from their chinese website but i did not managed to make google services work properly. I suggest - if you don't mind storage - to go with variant: full or stock or super to reduce chance of problem due to incomplete google framework.
[ZTE Nubia Z17 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] OperatorB:
Well, i have not heard about missing 'OEM unlocking' option within developer options. Sorry, but you surely enabled developer options?
[ZTE Nubia Z17 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] spikerspike97:
Yes I'm sure, I have the bootloader unlocked, that's probably why. I try now to flash the rom again.

I need help, as i'm going mentally crazy lol. :crying::silly::eek:

I have phone: Nubia Z17 Mini S

Model: NX589J

Android: 7.1.1.

Official chinese rom: Build number: NX589J_CNCommon_V212 (this is the latest version). Downloaded from here: http://ui.nubia.cn/rom/detail/49

I did the following (see detailed discription below) but when i open the google playstore icon on the phone it displays Checking info message for few seconds and then it crashes/shut itself off... Or it just won't open! Even after rebooting several times.

This is what i did, someone please tell me what i did wrong, how to fix this issue, did i do the steps wrong or in wrong order?:

Steps i took-->

1. updating the rom/firmware to latest version.

2. install twrp recovery on phone.

3. root (by selecting root option in twrp recovery on phone)

4. reboot.

5. turning phone off, then on with power and volume button to be back in twrp recovery.

6. selecting install, to install gapps zip file (downloaded from open gaps site)

7. after instalation wiping dalvik/cache and then reboot.

I don't know it anymore How do i make google playstore work on this phone? :crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:

---------- Post added at 08:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:18 PM ----------

Or where can i request to make a costom rom?
[ZTE Nubia Z17 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] OperatorB:
I have bad experience with Google services on stock Nubia chinese ROM as well. I was struggling to make it work at an acceptable level so i gave it up. In China Google services are blocked one way or an other.

You can give a try to a stock/full gapps package if you applied some smaller like nano, but it is just a guess. By the by, i think that root is not required for installing Google services. Wiping data is generally necessary before installation not after. :highfive:
[ZTE Nubia Z17 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] sweetautumn:
Thanks for the reply. Unfortunatly i tried all the versions of gapps, from aroma, to super to micro to nano and pico. Lol.. *slaps forhead. Haha.

All the same result, signing into google account, app works for a little while. Then either crashes or it tells me autenthication failed. Workaround is turning of wifi with airplane mode on, rebooting, turning off airplain mode and turning on wifi. Deleting google account from settings, accounts. Re-login google account. Playstore works a little while. Then same thing. Phone really makes me insane and crazy, wanna smash it to the wall at times :D

I just wish i could find the EN rom, instead of the CN rom. Phone came installed with EN rom. But i needed to update as flashlight, callculator etc was not working. So i used stock rom CN version i could find on nubia site. Where i bought the phone no help at all.

Ok.. So root is not needed for installing gapps? What would be a good step?

1. Format data everything?

2. Install stock rom?

3. Install TWRP?

4. Install zip gapps file with TWRP?

5. Dance or cry if it works? hahaha...

As i understand with CN rom gapps/playstore will never work...?

Ok who wants to buy this phone. I feel like giving up/
[ZTE Nubia Z17 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] OperatorB:
No reason to feel sorrow! :cyclops:

If you give one more chance to CN ROM then >remove added google account and lock screen security> boot to recovery > factory reset == wipe data+cache > reinstall ROM from zip > (if possible do not boot into system remain in recovery) install gapps (wipe again if u want, nothing to lose) > reboot into android > cross your finger on your left while your right configures google account :fingers-crossed:

If you want EN ROM then probably on the indian site you will find on one nice day. http://www.nubia.com/in/support.php?a=download

If you are not sticking with stock Nubia ROMs then give a try to e.g Mokee custom ROM (i'm using) if there exist for 17miniS. They

can offer some features that you probably not expect and can make you satisfied.

Lastly if you don't have time to wait and money does not matter then try to install an EN rom of Z17 mini (not S) from that indian site. My idea behind is that most of the manufacturers are lazy and want profit only thus Z17miniS and Z17mini is not that different.

The graphix chip is the same, the CPU is the same (of premium version), display are the same, only battery and headphone jack differs as i have noticed.

I've shared the up-to-date international stock rom per below thread

https://xdaforums.com/nubia-z17-mini/how-to/nubia-z17mini-international-rom-nx569j-t3711979

In short, you shall:

- download the zip from my google drive

- copy the zip onto your handset or SD Card

- graceful shutdown your mobile

- press "Volume Down" + "Power", to boot into "recovery mode"

- select the download zip to flash onto your Z17 Mini

- all done (consider you may wish to wiping dalvik/cache before reboot)

- it shall take sometime to start-up, but once it is ready, you are ready to take off with pre-built google

*hope it helps

Hi guys,

I just bought a Nubia Z17 mini S and I really need some help.

I am currently living in China. So, my ROM is probably a Chinese ROM. Based on what I read here. I could never have Gapps on a Chinese ROM. So, what I want to do at this point is to unlock bootloader, download the international firmware and flash the international ROM. However, it looks like I cannot flash that ROM as long as my bootloader hasn't been unlocked. The problem is: I can't unlock the bootloader. I have been reading for days on how to unlock the freakin thing. It won't work.

I have on Windows 10 .

"adb devices" works but "fastboot devices" doesn't work. I have already downloaded the latest platform tools too.

Please help!

Hi everyone

I'm having trouble with my Nubia Z17 mini, trying to unlock the bootloader to be able to install TWRP, and I really need some help.

I've been following the above instructions, plus every other one I could find on the net, but without success :)

The problem is, the device won't be recognized as fastboot device, no matter what I do. I can get it to boot into bootloader, either with the above guide as well as manually, following the instructions for manual unlocking found at getdroidtips (sorry, as a new user I cannot post the link).

Also, it's being recognized as ADB device, following the command adb devices

As soon as I want to peform step 2, it says "waiting for phone" or something similar. Executing the command fastboot devices won't show the device either.

Please note: The phone's model no. is NUBIA_NX569J_EN, which is the 6gb version, but with global rom, I guess.

As far as I see it, I'm having a driver problem. The thing is, I cannot find a guide that precisely states exactly which drivers you need. There are a lot of drivers out there (USB, ADB,...), and I've tried all of them. Any advices?

I really hope you guys can help me out.

Cheers

Greetings!

'Older' scripts and guides dealing with fastboot mode seem to not work flawlessly. It is also possible that your phone has already have unlocked bootloader. (try to jump to steps of flashing TWRP)

Otherwise i can suggest you a link(which contains a baidu link) of a unofficial chinese script and TWRP image which well... may work. link

Try those and reach back in case of question.

May the proper bits be with you! :cyclops:

Unfortunately, I couldn't get it to work with that script either, but in the meantime, I succeeded by using an alternative ADB driver. That solved the problem.

[ZTE Nubia Z17 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] OperatorB:
Check that your model's ID is the same as in the script. Otherwise you need to edit the script to fit your model. By the way 6GB version according to my knowledge is has 'H' instead of 'J' but make sure!
