Your edl tool gives me this error : 06:19:11: {ERROR: WritePort:4989 Could not write to '\\.\COM20', Windows API WriteFile failed! Your device is probably *not* on this port, attempted 100 times.

My phone is stuck in edl mode. when I plug/dont plug in my usb my phone goes to edl mode, and say i plug in my phone and it stuck in edl mode when i unplug the cable it takes me to dfu.

Do you know any solution? I tried Mi Flash

Hey have u seen the new 19.0 update? Can I just update? Or will it cause a boot loop
[Blade General] evtoofly:
what update are you talking about?
[Blade General] Matthew702:
If u notice I'm on magisk 7.1.1
[Blade General] Matthew702:
This one
[Blade General] evtoofly:
Do a direct install on magisk manager, and reboot once its finished.

for anyone who does not see install 19.0 update go to settings in magisk manager and change update channel to beta

Finally got my phone as r/w, and it is decrypted as well :)
[Blade General] Matthew702:
Magisk 7.1.1
[Blade General] evtoofly:
go ahead and update magisk to 19 :). I just did a direct install on magisk manager, rebooted, and now I have 19.0 as my latest version

When you look in the windows device manager, does it have a yellow exclamation mark next to the hs loader?

Someone should find a way to getting custom sounds working for bootanimations. Thats one thing I am still not succesful in.
[Blade General] Unssin:
no

---------- Post added at 10:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:50 PM ----------

its normal no marks or anything. Plus my phone seem to be stuck in edl mode.
[Blade General] JasonSec:
https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/base/+/master/cmds/bootanimation/FORMAT.md

Looks like it's as simple as adding an audio.wav, the original bootanimation doesn't have one which is strange but the last image in the animation is corrupt maybe it's embedded or something?
[Blade General] Matthew702:
Try flashing the og boot.img
[Blade General] Unssin:
This is the problem, when i try to flash the boot.img it gave me the Windows API Failed error. And my phone bootloops between dfu and edl modes. And when i use the dfu tool to boot to edl maybe more properly it doesnt do anything.

Im trying my luck with emmc dongle. It reads the bootloader with the bin file successfully but when i browse the boot.xml and patch.xml it takes forever to flash, I literally have to start flashing it like at 8:00 PM go to sleep wake up and find it at 54 percent and I think when i go home it should be done because at school right now.
[Blade General] Matthew702:
Did u try via another PC? Maybe your problem has to do with drivers or adb or fastboot. Toubleshooting is best when you have a fresh clean slate to work with.. also if your device can be found by adb.. try command "adb reboot disemmcwp" might help. Worked with my zte z970 that was stuck in a boot loop for a couple months. It was showing up as a ? When I typed adb devices while in ftm mode. Just saying try the simple possibilities before you break it further... Try the command in ftm mode.
[Blade General] xxMoon:
Actually sounds like you have to reboot your machine and turn off driver signature enforcement.

Power off windows

Power on windows

At bios screen start tapping f8

Select the option to disable driver signature enforcement

Try flashing boot
[Blade General] Matthew702:
Yea it's should show as test mode in the lower right hand corner. Then when your done open cmd as admin and turn off test mode with this command "bcdedit -set testsigning off"

---------- Post added at 09:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:09 PM ----------

For windows 10 it's shift+left click on the restart tab. Should reboot into advanced start options.

The phone is black screen. The only accessible mode is edl and dfu. when i try to reboot the device it takes me straight to edl and if I unplug the cable while its in edl it goes to dfu mode but the strange thing is it doesnt show the light in the home button.
[Blade General] Matthew702:
Plug your device into ur PC in edl mode and go into device manager and if you can take a pic of the what driver your device shows up as.
[Blade General] evtoofly:

My little brother have a tablet with a boot up animation and sound and a shutoff animation. So I download Solid Explorer and was looking inside the bootanimation.zip and shutdownanimation.zip and notice an extra file called audio_conf.txt in both zip but i still didnt find the audio file where its located at, so im working on that.

---------- Post added at 02:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:21 PM ----------

Found it, its audio.wav and located in the p0 or whatever your first image folder is in the boot animation.

The thing is my little brother tablet is running android version 6.0, but i think it will work for android nougat too.
[Blade General] evtoofly:
so where should I place these files at?
[Blade General] Unssin:
In the media folder. There should be a bootanimation.zip for boot up animation and shutdownanimation.zip for shut off animation. The audio_conf.txt should be place inside the bootanimation.zip just like desc.txt and the sound file have to be in the first folder that contain the .png or .jpg images and the name should be audio.wav. flash them and tell me if it works.

---------- Post added at 08:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:47 PM ----------

Ohh, forgot to mention that if you want to have both a shutdown and a boot sound you will have to copy the necessary files to each for example you will have to copy the audio.wav and audio_conf.txt to bootanimation for boot up sound and also to shutdownanimation.zip for shut off sound.
[Blade General] evtoofly:
flash the wav files???? or do you mean the bootanimation in general. Doesnt this also mean that to place the files I have to extract the boot folder and then compress it again after I place the files inside?

Dear, XxMoon

Hey, After like 3 weeks of research i manage to find the proper free tool for flashing, however after i overwrite the boot and recovery img , and go inside the tool and browse the patch0 and rawprogram0 xmls it doesnt read the patch boot and recovery twrp , it read the normal boot and recovery i was wondering if you can please upload the patch0 and rawprogram that you used so i can download it and check if its from the tool or the patch and rawprogram files.

Thanks,

Okay, thanks
[Blade General] Mitcbdip:
good luck guys im following this been wanting root for this phone for a while I believe this phone can be pretty sweet once fully rooted.
[Blade General] Jasonls221:
So, I've found out the phone has a working chroot command. I currently don't have a microsd card (someone stole it) so as soon as I get one I'll try to use that to root it.

Of course it could just not work but it's definitely worth a try
[Blade General] Unssin:
What is chroot for?

I know we got a su binary but its not located at xbin/su it actually located at sbin/su
[Blade General] Jasonls221:
Chroot is change root, basically I can kinda change the os like booting from a different drive on a computer. With that I can remount the system as read/write and transfer and edit files.

Also I might be able to do it without a microsd but it'll be a lot harder because I have to setup a os to chroot into
[Blade General] Unssin:
Interesting
[Blade General] Jasonls221:
So, the "chroot" and "busybox chroot" commands won't let me chroot into the os I made for this phone. Although it won't work I do believe it is a security vulnerability and can be exploited.
[Blade General] Matthew702:
Hey bro any word?? I think the vid to that 5.02/18.02 program got tossed... I wanna root my **** also.

Something else, the tool I was talking about is Emmc dongle. I remember when I factory reset my phone, I skipped the setup wizard by not connecting to WiFi (don't reset before I 100% confirm the method because I was just messing around), at a certain point when I was messing around with my phone after the reset I got my phone bootloader to be headed by the program file from the Emmc dongle cracked version but honestly I was scare to flash because I thought I did a step wrong but I didn't and I disconnected my phone then reconnected and this time Emmc dongle wasn't able to read the bootloader I tried everything that I did that I remember still nothing but hey look at the bright side, you might think that I'm stupid and this phone is impossible to root but remember even the word "impossible" is says I'm possible so don't give up.

Any update on what tool we are supposed to used to root our phone? QFIL gives me errors and I do not have UAT access. Any help would be great because I really look forward to seeing this phone get rooted.
[Blade General] Unssin:
I do but I don't have access to my PC right now (I'm at school). Another way is to go to the first page and download the twrp from there. Soft bricked my phone, by accident. My phone wont boot to the Android recovery and when issuing the "adb reboot recovery" from cmd my phone takes me to DFU mode and then when i try to start my phone normally it asks me for a start up password which I never set. After too many failed attempt I think it suppose to boot to Android recovery so I can reset my phone but I think android redcovery is delete and now im stuck at bootloop.
[Blade General] xxMoon:
Watch the first part of the video.

This video

Sounds like a soft brick issue, no worries. Put your phone into dfu mode by trying to get into recovery then use the ZTE Tool to switch it to EDL mode.

I think so syntax errors are because you are running the bat file from inside the 7z file. They need to be extracted.

You will need to reflash both boot and twrp recovery. Choose not to reboot the phone.

Press and hold Power and Vol+, until the zte logo appears, then let go of power while still holding vol+.

Once your in twrp, you need to select WIPE, and the format data. That will fix the boot loop.
[Blade General] Jasonls221:
Try the tool xxmoon made, it should work.

Flash the recovery he supplied on the first page and the boot.img I supplied l, then all you have to do is place the su file in /system/bin via twrp (I recommend using adb push) and after booting to system you'll have to install magisk manager.
[Blade General] xxMoon:
Just flashing the boot img put magisk su on there.
