Thank you very much. This command has finally worked.

I succeed in installing TWRP 3.3.1-0529 for my Lenovo Z5s.

Now, I can use TWRP in recovery mode.

I have copy and past Pixel Experience Rom (.img file) at the root of the internal storage. (Method: Phone connected to PC- File transfer mode- Copy and paste)

Internal storage shows 0 MB for file size (Not formated?)

I didn't see the Rom in TWRP folders.

I can't install anything and I can't use my phone. Could you help me to install a rom please?

I want to install Pixel experience 10 for my phone but I don't know exactly which version is fully compatible with.

Can you confim that this version is the most recent and dedicated to Lenovo Z5s? PixelExperience-10.0-20200328-GSI-ARM64-AB.img.xz

Note: before Lenovo Z5s. I had a Redmi Note 4 working perfectly with Pixel Experience 9

Thanks for your help

Hello,

I tried to Install Pixel Experience Rom recommanded here https://xdaforums.com/z5-pro-gt/len...evelopment/lenovo-z5s-pro-twrp-3-3-1-t3953346

Pixel Experience rom was on my SD card (Pixel Experience.img)

With TWRP I tried to install the rom after erasing cache/Data/System

The TWRP installation was OK. The phone reboot, I see Google Pixel Logo, system is loading and ask me a password. I dont' have this password (encrypted?) , I reboot the phone. Now the phone reboot like bootloop in recovery mode.

The situation seems to be critical and I can't do anything and I don't know what to do. :(

Your help will be precious to make my phone work

Thanks in davance

[Android General] downforce25:
I've installed Visual C++ 2010 Runtime Libraries (x86) and QPST 2.7 following the steps recommended. I use QFIL 2.0.2.3

Qualcomm USB drivers are installed. Do I need to Install Lenovo drivers?

I've tried with an other USB Type C cable and different USB port.

I always have the same error.

[Android General] Geniune:
it seems communication error between computer and phone ,Update .net to latest and install lenovo drivers, The Sahara fail comes if you wait too long after setting the phone into the download mode. You have to open the program put the phone into download mod and then immediately start flashing. Try to use some other computer if possible
[Android General] downforce25:
Thank you for the proposed solution.

Before trying flashing stock firmware again with QFIL I want to be sure that I have all the required files and drivers.

Even if the situation is stressful I must be sure that I started the procedure well with the right tools, I could have made a mistake

Installed:

Qualcomm USB Drivers 1.00.25

Lenovo USB driver 1.1.34 is this the correct driver for Z5s for firmware flash?

.net is up to date

I have a "Package de pilotes Windows - Mediatek.Inc (wdm_usb) Ports (01/22/2015 3.0.1504.0) ??? I don't know what it is . My phone has Qualcomm CPU

QFIL version 2.0.2.3
[Android General] Geniune:
Remove mediatek drivers and do u have Lenovo 5Zs or Z5 ? both have different Qualcom Cpus the firmware i told u to install is for Z5 not Z5s, Also get the latest Qfil to install Rom

[Android General] downforce25:
Thank you very much for this precious link

The procedure is very detailed :)

I follow the steps like explained in the document

I've chose and downloaded and extracted this stock firmware L78071_CN_SECURE_USER_Q00024.0_P_ZUI_11.1.171_ST_191023_qpst.zip

I've dowloaded and installed QPST/QFil “Qualcomm Flash Image Loader

I've downloaded and installed Lenovo Z5s L78071 Qualcomm driver SDM710 Qualcomm HS-USB Qdloader 9008

Then, I've launched QFIL from C >Programmes > Qualcomm > QPST > bin -> QFIL

In QFIL I browse to the stock firmware Folder to access to prog_firehose_ddr.elf and load xml from this same folder rawprogram0.xml -> patch0.xml

Then I've plugged my phone with Vol+ and Vol- simultaneous pressed, QFIL has detected the phone on Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM3)

[Android General] downforce25:
Hello,

thank you for these advices.

Lenovo stock Firmware folder is in bin folder (Qualcomm/QPST/bin)

I've verified in the device manager in Ports (COM et LPT) section

I have Qualcomm HS-USB QDLOADER 9008 (COM3) So it seems to be OK with drivers no?
[Android General] Geniune:
Yes change the drivers since it works
[Android General] downforce25:
Note: I tried to Install Qualcomm USB drivers from your link. I've extracted the archive. and In Tool folder, I have a "DriverInstaller64" Application. I've tried to double click on it without success. Same result when I try to run as administrator. I don' know why. I've just Windows Defender Antivirus.

During Qualcomm USB drivers installation, do I choose WWAN or Ethernet? I've chosen Ethernet because I'm connected with RJ45 cable to my box. Am I doing right?

Finally, drivers Installed (from an other source) are Qualcomm USB drivers for Windows 1.00.25 version

Qualcomm usb drivers required a system reboot, after rebooting, WIndows 10 is in test Mode. is it normal?

The phone runs under ZUI in English. is there a method to get French language?
[Android General] Geniune:
I am glad you get your phone working , the folder at mega provided by YouTube link has a app morelocale.apk will solve your problem of language
[Android General] downforce25:
Hello,

Now my 2 priorities are:

1/ To set French language for the system

2/ To install Google Play Store in French version

1/ Setting up French language as default system language

I've downloaded morelocale.apk following this tutorial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2N8p4tVIxU4

I'v enabled USB debogging mode. I've installed minimal adb Fastboot.

In morelocale.apk application I've added a custom local language Français France FR

I've connected my phone to PC with USB cable

In CMD window I've entered this command "adb shell pm grant jp.co.c_lis.ccl.morelocale android.permission.CHANGE_CONFIGURATION"

Now I can select FR language. Menus are translated in French.

But, after restarting my phone, English language is automatically set as default language. How can I solve this problem?

2/ Could you explain to me how can I install Google Play Store please?

Thanks in advance.
[Android General] Geniune:
Open Chinese app store and search for googleplay and click the button in front of it all is Chinese language you have to see the pics and understand
[Android General] downforce25:
Google Play store is installed thanks to your advice :good:

For the system language, after rebooting the phone, the system goes back to English language. How to fix it?
[Android General] Geniune:
I have no idea about it because I use eng, you have to search at google / XDA
[Android General] xplozia:
Follow instruction from here: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=77583961&postcount=2 and install Pixel Experience, that have Franch language
[Android General] downforce25:
Hello,

thank you for the link. This rom is excellent, I was using it on my Redmi Note 4 before switching to Lenovo Z5s.

My phone is already unlocked (bootloader). I've previously tried to install Pixel Experience (Android 10 version) that caused completely bricked phone.

Now my phone is running this stock firmware L78071_CN_SECURE_USER_Q00024.0_P_ZUI_11.1.171_ST_191023_qpst.zip At the moment,

the system language is really the annoying problem

. I manage to set French as system language with more locale 2 app. Menus and apps are running in French.

But after every reboot, the phone systematically backs to original custom language (US)

. is there anything else to try to fix it?

After my phone was bricked, it's been quite difficult (and stressful) to get back to a functional phone. So, I want to be very carefull before trying to switch to Pixel Experience Rom.

Do you think that I can flash directly Pixel Experience firmware with QFIL like I've done with Lenovo Stock firmware?

An other solution would be to find original stock Rom (Mondial Rom) with French language that was installed when I've received my phone.

Thanks for your advices

PE can be installed only from fastboot. I installed many roms with Android 10, but I lost fingerprint, GCam, video from Whatsapp, etc and I'm back to PE 9 from sugested post.

I flashed zui 11, from OP, then flashed this through fastboot

Havok 3.8

Hi all,

Does anyone else find the system demands a password after installing the TWRP 3.2.3-1002?

I really liked the look of Havok v2.6 so installed that, but never got the wifi working. It won't turn on.

Same in Havok 3.8, Ancient OS Civilization v3.8 (which looks AMAZING, I love it, camera app looks really cool, loads of animation options) and Lineage 17.1. Wifi won't work in any of them.

I tried flashing the persist.img from the original Zui ROM (L78011_CN_OPEN_USER_Q00026.0_P_ZUI_11.1.053_ST_190731_qpst.zip) onto the persist partition, but it didn't help. I also tried copying the WCNSS_qcom_wlan_factory_nv.bin into the mounted persist folder, although I ADB Pushed it over to the phone and pasted it into persist using TWRPs file browser.

In the end I gave up and reflashed Zui 11 (L78011_CN_OPEN_USER_Q00026.0_P_ZUI_11.1.053_ST_190731_qpst.zip) wth Qfil, and everything sprang to life.

I'm a moron. I really want to try Ancient OS but it's no good without Wifi. What am I doing wrong?
[Android General] edsmanco:

If you install a different one from it, the WiFi won't work.

You need twrp 3.3.0-0420

I can enable the OEM unlocking function, but Im not getting any errors on boot like ren dr is getting on his youtube videos.

EDIT: I got adb and ran adb reboot bootloader and it says my device state is locked even though I've enabled allow OEM unlock

EDIT2: I followed the guide where you submit your IMEI to a site. I got the sn.img file and tried the fastboot flash unlock command. The phone is just stuck on the white lenovo bootup screen (not the blue lenovo animated one) with no changes. Pressing the power button at this point turns off the phone and the phone starts up normally with no changes to any settings.

EDIT3: I downgraded to 3.9.075 using qfil and unlocked the bootloader. Success?

How do I flash mokee's twrp? Or should I flash 3.2.3 now.
