Disclaim

All steps described here have been many times tested and proved to be safe but, you may know that sometimes in life unexpected things happen. I'm not responsible for any damage in your devices, do things at your own risk.

Introduction

Thanks to xda user [MENTION=1059761]alexeei[/MENTION] we can install almost every Z6 Pro stock ROMs using the Fastboot Mode. You always should check the package content and the installation script(s) to be sure that you know exactly what is gonna be installed. You can find all the ROMs listed and linked in this index.

Let's go with the guide.

0. Pre-requirements

- The Bootloader must be unlocked.

- Lenovo drivers installed in your computer. You can download them here . Thanks [MENTION=1234479]benjieb[/MENTION]

1. Download and extract the ROM

You cand find many of them here. Extract the downloaded file and a folder will be created with these contents:

- All the files required for the installation in Fastboot Mode.

- The ROM files.

- The .bat file(s) which contain(s) all the actions that will be performed during the installation.

[IMG="Fastboot installer content"]https://i.imgur.com/4hqW3oN.jpg[/IMG]

You always should check the content of the .bat file(s). Read post #2 to get more info about this.

2. Reboot your device in Fastboot Mode

Shut down your device and boot it holding pressed both Volume Down + Power buttons until the Fastboot Mode menu appears. You can navigate in the Fastboot Mode menu with volume buttons to choose the options and the Power button to confirm, but at this point you don't need to do any action in this menu.

3. Connect the device to the computer with USB cable

4. Execute the .bat file

Just execute the .bat file with a double click and a CMD window will be opened and the installation will start. Only a few lines will appear at the beginning and then nothing will happen, it will seem to be stopped but actually it's not, just be patient because this screen could last around ten minutes. So despite of the 'Invalid sparse file format at header magic", keep the faith and don't do anything but wait.

[IMG="Just be patient"]https://i.imgur.com/8X1ufdp.jpg[/IMG]

The device will reboot once the installation is done.

5. Errors in the log. No voice in calls.

Some errors may appear in the CMD window during the installation, this is because some partitions are 'critical' and we're not allowed to modify them via fastboot. Usually this is not a problem because these "small partitions" don't prevent the new ROM to work normally, except if you're installing Android 10 from Android 9. If you change Android version with this method you will find that your micro doesn't work in calls. You can fix it installing these "small partitions" from TWRP.

Any correction, info or advise about this post will be very welcome.
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Chema_F:
About the .bat file(s):

You always should check the content of these files before doing any installation, specially with recent fastboot installers including several .bat files for diferent uses. Just open the .bat file with right click and select Edit to view the actions included in the file.

[IMG="bat file content"]https://i.imgur.com/q1YXqsM.jpg[/IMG]

None of Alexei's fastboot installers have never included any command to erase Data, but I'd say it's mandatory to check twice the .bat file to be sure that you're not going to affect an undesired partition. In case e.g. the .bat file includes the line 'fastboot flash system system.img' but you don't want System partition to be installed, just delete this line from the file and Save before closing it.

Maybe you want to edit the file to include in the batch any other thing, a custom recovery for instance. Just drop your custom recovery file in the rom folder (the fastboot installer folder) and make sure that the line in the .bat file regarding the recovery matchs with your recovery file name.

Also you can notice that recent fastboot installers include more than one .bat file. They are named in a descriptive way like "UpdateZUI.bat" or "UpsateAOSP", but you should check them anyways. Let's say you're using any of the Q aosp-based custom ROMs (they include Boot and System partitions) and you want to update the vendor and/or the firmware. You should check the .bat files to find which of them suits better with your needs.

Thanks for your instruction. Will this method work on other lenovo devices. I have a lenovo tablet running android 10 chinese stock rom, now I would like to flash global stock rom
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Chema_F:
It depends on the rom package. The packages made to be installed using fastboot are usually very similar, but you should check the .bat files. I could take a look if you provide a link.
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] hilary trump:
Thanks. The rom has not released yet. I just pre-ordered a chinese variant tablet P11 pro TB-J706F

I found the link as follows

mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/lenovo/ Tab_P11_Pro/TB-J706F/TB-J706F_S210002_201015_ROW.zip

But inside the package there is no BAT file though

Hello I've messed up and didn't flash with fastboot correctly. I try to flash a stock oreo rom via fastboot with the commands at the end of the post and it boots "NO COMMAND". Then I flashed TWRP to flash a zip with it and phone has no STORAGE or memory or anything, so it keeps failing.

Is there any way via fastboot or anything to fresh start?
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] Nivead:
The last version of software for the G5 plus (potter:8.1.0/OPS28 .85-17-6-2) only shows 8 sparsechunk.x files - your batch file shows 10 sparsechunks - did you flash the proper firmware for your unit ?

Whats the model number of the phone and the file name of the firmware you used ?
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] crata:
I downloaded two OREO roms and tried both. Followed this post https://xdaforums.com/g5-plus/how-to/moto-g5-plus-fastboot-flash-stock-oreo-t3848433 but maybe I messed up when choosing the rom: selected one first, and after it failed, did a -w in fastboot and tried the next one. My phone is a g5 potter

This is the other ROM I tried: https://qc5.androidfilehost.com/dl/...er-twrp-flashable-OPSS28.85-17-6-2-aroma.zip?
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] crata:
Its the 2gb model. I live in Argentina. I didn't back up EFS or PERSIST sadly
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] Nivead:
I'm not an expert on the firmware, but I know which US versions to use. I believe that your phone is the XT1680, and the firmware would be XT1680_POTTER_RETAR_8.1.0_OPS28.85-17-6-2_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip under the RETAR directory at https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/potter/official/

In my past experience, no command was missing the recovery program TWRP. I would just fastboot it again, onto my phone, and then go back to recovery, and TWRP would be there.

It sounds like in your case the partitions may be missing, and TWRP would not see anything.

I try would fastboot the firmware listed at the lolinet mirror (use the batch file listed above that does not erase the modems and EFS/Persist) and see if it comes back. I would first delete the ADB folder and all software in it, it appears you may have had the wrong firmware. Put a new copy of the ADB software, a new copy of the extracted firmware from the mirror. See if it comes back,

If it does not work and fastboot appears to work, sounds like you would have to recover or recreate linux partitions on the phone. If there is no response from the phone, its probably bricked.

Hope that helps and thats all I can suggest.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] crata:
Thank you for your help. Sadly, it doesnt work - it still says No Command. I'll quote the CMD Log down here, if anyone finds it informative.

If anyone can point me about recreating linux partitions on the android, I'd be glad. I have no idea what that is, although I'm going to look for it right now.

Bumping this post to see if anyone has an idea. Thank you Nivead.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] crata:
bump
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] Wolfcity:
The second ROM seems to be (by name) a TWRP flashable which means it's not possible to flash it by fastboot, only by TWRP.

Maybe that should be the way to go for you. If you can't flash any fastboot firmware maybe try a TWRP flashable.

Versions and tutorials are here:

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] easyrider77:
So I've read some on the Frankenstein thread, and I decide to go that route I'll follow that thread.

I have not switched carriers as of yet so I am on sprint still.

I know if I am going to say tmo it's recommend to kdz flash the us988.

As I understand it, you can go to us988 fine without issues (normally) but to go back to sprint you need to reflash to ls988 and to do that, root is needed, which also requires bl unlock.

I tried a moto g5s plus with an unlocked bl on both sprint and vz, but in both cases I got data to work but no voice at all. After some research and trial and errors, I found out it was because the bl was unlocked, because I was flashed to stock rom. Once I locked the bl, everything worked fine. Some how sprint network detects the bl bring unlocked or the bl being unlocked makes it so the system doesn't work right with the phone, not sure. I also found out you can be root and use an unlocked bl once you are on the network, but not before.

So, that brings me to my question.

In order to use ls988, again you need root and unlocked bl, so that being the case, how would I go about using the ls988 without the bl being unlocked? Because with the bl unlocked, as stated above, calls won't work.

Is it possible to use the us988 abd bl locked, then get registered on the network, then flash the ls988?

Sorry for any confusion, I sometimes have a hard time explaining in words what's in my head.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Yes, it's best to activate the phone on Sprint FIRST before you temporarily convert to US998, then flash back to Sprint. So that part of your question is valid.

But the rest is a little silly considering we've been rooting this phone for over 2 years now.

Of course calls/data work with a Unlocked Bootloader on all variants.

Everyone who unlocked a boot loader on the LS998 have calls and data working just fine on Sprint. And Verizon and AT&T and T-Mobile and every other carrier and the world.

Lots of Sprint people who have temporarily converted to US998, unlocked bootoader, then flash back to Sprint firmware -- keeping TWRP and root. One of our main DEVs is a Sprint customer. So your worries are totally baseless.

Why do you think we have TWRP flashable zips Sprint firmware to flash back to, if the phone couldn't be used?

By the way this is an LG not a Motorola. It's also not a Sony, which is another common question -- do to boot loader unlock issues with Sonys.

However, if you're thinking about moving to T-Mobile, then stay on US998 and go to T-Mobile. Why mess with Sprint?

Us998 on T-Mobile has VoLTE, Wi-Fi calling, etc. Us998 has more compatible T-Mobile bands than LS998 firmware.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] easyrider77:
I've rooted almost a dozen different phones from back to the s2 days, but the moto phone threw me. I've never once had an issue with bl unlocked and being able to switch to another carrier until the moto phone, so I wasn't sure if that was a network thing or a phone thing.

With the moto it was obviously a phone thing.

Why switch to sprint instead of just staying on tmo? I guess simply put, it gives choices. Like everything in life, it's good to have choices and even if you never choose to use said choice, the fact that it's there is good, because it doesn't limit things to just a small selection. This is why we have multiple phones, and cell services to choose from, it gives a variety of things to choose from, to suit each person's needs.

I've seen people who live in a specific area and can only get one carrier because nothing else works in that area so they have to change carriers.

As for being baseless I am confused how it is baseless from a question. I never said anything about lg not working with our without the bl locked or unlocked, I simply referred to the Motorola phone and was curious if the lg phone would have the same issue I had with the moto phone.

If for some reason there is an implied statement that I am lying about the moto phone not working with the bl unlocked before it was registered on the network and the only thing I did was lock the bl, I am willing to hear why exactly it would not receive or make calls on both vz and sprint, both the exact same issue, until I locked the bl.

Nowhere in my thread did I say the lg would not work with an unlocked bl, twrp or anything else..... I was simply asking a question based on the experience I had with the moto phone (not lg or any other phone) so I am confused how that is baseless, considering I was baseing it off of the phone that did give me issues which was the moto phone, and not the lg phone.

I have bricked my O2 Stealth due to an incorrect power adapter

So now i cannot enter bootloader mode also

So i have decided to flash the bootloader of the Stealth using JTAG method, but have run into a couple of problems

1. Where do i get the bootloader for O2 XDA Stealth ???

2. What is the JTAG pinout for the stealth ????

I have uploaded a pic of the JTAG points of the motherboard of the Stealth, please help me by sharing you suggestions and experiences.

O2 XDA Stealth JTAG

Hello fellow developers. I am also happy (not) to say that I have bricked my O2 Stealth.

Has anybody been able to make any progress on debricking this phone using the JTAG method? I have two of these phones (one bricked) and I can confirm that on both phones there is evidence of test probing on the contacts marked with red ink shown in the previous post.

If these are the JTAG pins, is there any way of identifying which pin is which by probing with a multimeter and an oscilloscope?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

:)

Thanks Slimli,

You are a champion !!! The photo of the JTAG pins made all the difference.

I then just simply followed the O2 Dead Boot tutorial that's floating around. I made up my own JTAG connector with odds and ends I found in the garage, and I replaced the EBO_a.nb0 file with the stealth bootloader you had also sent me. I now have Windows Mobile 6.5 running on my phone.

Once again, Thanks Slimli, you are a champion !!!!!!!!!!!:)

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] gooday:
I followed instructions given here:

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=DeadBoot

These instructions can also be found here:

http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=680669

I used the program in this package:

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/uploads/RepairBootLoader.zip

Replace EBO_a.nb0 given in this package with the Stealth bootloader.

The addresses and flash type are set up in 'start.bat'. They also apply to the Stealth. Open a DOS shell in the same directory as 'start.bat' (which also has 'EBO_a.nb0'), and then at the DOS prompt, type 'run start'. The only tricky part is to get a good contact on the jtag pins. The rest was easy.
