Just place the downloaded firmware (UL-xxx.zip) into root folder on your internal storage or external sdcard. The system will automatically recognize it and asking do you want to flash it.
Just make sure you had the correct regional firmware (mine was WW)

Rename your downloaded firmware to K012_sdupdate.zip then copy to your MICROSD. Now you just have to go into droidboot mode.
Follow the step below to go into droidboot. (Start by turn off your device).
1. If you had never update to kitkat before, go into droidboot by holding VOL DOWN + POWER until droidboot menu is present.
2. If you have update to kitkat before (or currently on kitkat), boot into droidboot by holding VOL UP + POWER until menu is present.
Next step depend on menu that appear on your droidboot menu:
1. If you had SD UPDATE option presented on the MOST BELOW option, go on and select it. (Beware, you should choose SD UPDATE not SD DOWNLOAD)
2. If your menu doesnt show SD UPDATE, then you had to choose RECOVERY.
I think thats all to do, your device must have start the update process by now.

But there is no recovery mode in this device like cwm or twrp..............
have a look.....
in the video below i have started in recovery without puting the firmware archieve in sdcard....will it surely work...
and one thing more is there ant way to install cwm or twrp or any other recovery on this device......
Flash fonepad firmware
It's very easy. Just put the downloaded zip file in the root of you internal memory and you will see a notification which says it has detected a new update file. Tap on it and install.
Good luck

Then you need to use ADB tools and fastboot. Before anything you need to download the attached files which contains ADB tools and intel usb drivers. Download the files and extract it somewhere . Go to "intelandroiddrvsetup1.1.5.zip" and install the drivers. Then Power off your tablet. Hold down the Volume + and Power and rlease at the Asus logo comes up. Now you will see the fastboot menu.
Connect your tablet to your PC. Now go to the folder you extracted the zip file. Press the Shift key and Right click somewhere in the folder. Choose "open command window here".
Then type this commands one by one and press Enter:
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase userdata
Then you need you flash the a stock firmware. Download the appropriate firmware from Asus website. There are three .img files in the firmware zip file (fastboot.img, boot.img, splashscreen.img). Copy all these three files to the extracted folder. Now type the following command in the command window one by one:
fastboot flash fastboot fastboot.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash splashscreen splashscreen.img
The last step is that you should put the firmware zip file on your external SD card. Rename it to k012_sdupdate.zip
Now use the volume keys on you tablet to choose the Recovery (if you have updated to 4.4.2) or SD Update (if your android version was 4.3). Press the Power to choose it. The tablet will reboot and flash the firmware.

So, You have bricked your phone by installing Xposed installer ? Thinking to download and flash stock rom ? Wait wait, why waste 500mb+ data if you can do it within 16-17mb!!
Requirements-
1. Redmi 1S (bricked after installing xposed installer)
2. Windows Computer
3. USB cable
2. An internet connections to download some files.
3. Patience
4. Brain
So, lets start -
At first download these files-
Xposed Disabler zip file-
http://www6.zippyshare.com/v/39722154/file.html
Fastboot files-
http://www27.zippyshare.com/v/94099837/file.html
USB Drivers-
http://pdanet.co/a/
TWRP 2.8.3.0 Recovery -
http://d-h.st/BTG
Now,
> Install the PDAnet driver package.
> Make a folder in desktop and name it "R1S"
> Then extract the fastboot.zip file in R1S folder,
> Put the TWRP img file in R1S also (Extract it, if it is in a zip file and take out the ".img" file and put it),
> Connect Redmi 1S to PC
> Press power button + volume down button until u see a Xiaomi bunny with "Fastboot" logo.
> Now go back to PC,
> Open the R1S folder
> Rename the TWRP to "recovery"
> Now, Press shift and right click simultaneously, then select "open command prompt here"
> Type -
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Press enter.
> After that, disconnect it from PC.
> Take out the sd card from it and connect to computer via card reader, and copy the xposed Disabler.zip to sd card.
> Put it back to Redmi 1S
> Now, Press power button + volume up button for 15secs
> You will see the TWRP logo,
> Then select "Install" from the menu.
> Now browse and select the xposed disabler.zip file you've copied just before,
> swipe to confirm,
> Reboot.
> Hit the "like" button if it helped.
Enjoy :sly: :sly:
And don't install xposed installer again. Install WSM tools instead of xposed.
NB:- this tutorial will void your warranty, So if you want to regain warranty, just download the stock "MI recovery.img" and flash it. (Same method, like TWRP flashing)
Sent from my HM 1SW using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
great thanks
Thank You, This Worked.
If I had found this method sooner, I wouldn't had to waste 2hrs trying to flash my redmi1s with MIUI ROM and failing.
Thanks Again 'Arkaprovaz'.
For those who get the error "AdbWinApi.dll is missing" after typing this command, fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Please, copy the "AdbWinApi.dll" file from the "AdbWinApi.rar" and paste it in the R1S folder which you had created previously. Now try executing the command. It shouldn't throw the error again.
thanks a lot man successfully recover my redmi 1s:good:

i am trying this method but when type in cmd mode fastboot is not recognized as an internal external command, operable program or batch file.
Thanks to all participants in this thread. I was about to lose my redmi 1s after installing Xposed tools when
this guide came to my help.
TY !
Thank you.I wiped internal storage and flashed stock recovery without realizing that my update.zip is gone.I also wiped system and everyhing before and without your tutorial with cmd I was lost because a phone with no os and just a stock recovery(which doesn't have mount option or anything similar) it's really bad.Thanks again !
thanx...
great ..
pc not recognising my device..
pc donot recognise my device what to do now.....
how to get it recognised....
how to install drivers...
Simplest way.
if you have installed Xposed, it shows that you are rooted and have a custom recovery too. In this case If you have custom recovery installed already you skip all the steps and just download XposedDisabler.zip and copy it to your SD card set it in your phone and flash it with any custom recovery and you are done.
Hope it helped.

Update
How to update the OTA firmware - MANUAL method
Note: always download relevant boot.img and the update.img file
For those who need ASUS stock firmware...
download the update firmware relevant to your SKU and flash as above...
Flash only boot.img and recovery.img and in place for system.img ----- flash update.img file that you have downloaded.
For future uses
Beginners with doubts and questions can interact here...
I will be updating the system.img file as and when we get the prerooted files released in the WEB....
Can I do this on my phone which has 2.13.40.13? Sorry for the question, am an old beginner

Hi
OK for upgrade but what about downgrade ? Like coming back from .22 to .20...
This worked for me. Had some bumps with the connection to the pc. First tried on Vista but won't recognize the phone. When I tried on Windows 8.1 finally connected. A word about the flashing of the system image. You really have to WAIT. At first I thought something went wrong until it started after about 5 minutes or so, and yes in parts because of the big file. Many many thanks for your help. Last question: will the phone now accept OTA updates? More power to XDA!

OK I am desperate I have tried this guide and several others. I follow it to the letter and everything works as described but all I get is a bootloop. Any help would be very much appreciated. When I go into the recovery I see for a split second - installing system then I get an error. On normal boot I just get the bootloop.
Thanks any help would be very much appreciated.
Windows version for this
Have Windows 10, ASUS laptop. When connect Zenfone 2 to it, it shows up on the laptop as a CD drive. I know this can't be right. Is Win10 missing drivers for this or something?
Hi.
Well as i said in my last topic,My tablet went on a auto rotation and etc.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/fonepad-7/help/stuck-boot-screen-fonepad-7-k012-t3267240
Selected recovery,Gave me an error.
So,Now i used a Jellybean firmware on Asus site.
Used those delete userdata and cache and system and etc.
Then loaded those 3 img files,It worked fine in droidbot.
But when i choosed recovery,It gave me an error after some seconds(Around 20 sec)
Well,Then i thought maybe i should use kitkat,So i download its firmware on Asus site.
Done those steps,Used SD update,It gave me same error again.
What should i do now dudes?
Please someone help me its URGENT! :crying: :crying:
P.S:Errors i told,I meant that andriod guy resting with a red attention...
Steps i have done already:
Used With/Without Wipe data button,Then used fastboot erase system and fastboot erase userdata and fastboot erase cache
Then load splashscreen and etc.
With both JB-KK firmwares.
I renamed firmwares to k012_sdupdate.zip and put it in an external SD.
Any way to save me? :/

Recovery img with pc using qfil and adb.
First I tried with QFIL, but then I tried to do with basic adb and fastboot. sp flash tool is what I never heard of. Should I be trying to do it with that?

Thank you for your help, I'll do as instructed.
There was no img file in the link, just cwm zip. So there was nothing to flash, at least nothing in a way that I know of.

You have to unzip the zip file using winrar or any other such software and then copy recover.img file where you have kept the adb drivers
Regards milkyway3
That's what I was trying to say. Unless I downloaded the wrong thing somehow, or my pc has some sort of an issue, there's no img file inside none of the zipped folders.

Sorry for the wrong link
This is the correct link for direct download
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24591000424964938
Follow these steps:
Download the TWRP recovery image to be installed on your Android.
Enable USB Debugging under Developer Options.
Install ADB and Fastboot utility on your PC via
https://devs-lab.com/download-lenovo-usb-drivers-adb.html
(extract the above rar and install exe file)
Go to the directory where you have downloaded the TWRP image file and then open the command console or termianl on this directory on your PC. To open a command window on Windows OS in the current directory, press shift + Right Click anywhere on Windows explorer, or some folder. Then on the menu opened, just press the “w” key on the keyboard or select “Open command window here” to open a command window.
Now connect your Android to the PC using a USB cable.
Enter the following command on the command window opened:
adb reboot bootloader
to put your Android into bootloader mode where you can flash/install the TWRP recovery.
If your Android device asks permission such as “Allow USB debugging” then just tap on OK to proceed.
Now when your Android is on the bootloader mode just execute the following command on the console:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.x.x-xxx.img
While executing this command make sure to replace the twrp-3.0.x.x-xxx.img with the actual file name of the TWRP that you have downloaded for your Android.
Wait for the TWRP to be flashed. Once it is done execute the following command:
fastboot reboot
on the command console and done, your Android is now installed with TWRP recovery.
Hope this helps you out
Regards milkyway3
I'll do it as soon as I can. Thanks again.

I did the exact same way but still shows the error "failed (status read failed (too many links)) lenovo vibe p1". Can anyone help please?
Hi to everyone!
I just bought a Lenovo Vibe P1 version P1C72 ( 3gb Ram and 16GB memory) from China and it came with Android 6.0.1 installed, VIBE UI.
Unfortunately there are o lot of bugs in this version, and i want to downgrade my phone to Android 5.1.
Could somebody tell me if i can do that by following the method from androidMTK.com, using QcomDloader Tool and lenovo P1a42 stock rom?
Or there is another way to downgrade my phone, because that seller guy from China told me there is no way to go back to Android 5.1 ?
Thanks in advance !

The nfc will not work with 01a42 lollipop, and i dont have chinese 5.1 sorry. Maybe u can try some good custom rom from the developers
If only NFC is the problem, i don't mind. I'm not using it, anyway.
But the method, using QcomDloader Tool, or another tool, is safe?
I'm not risking to brick my phone?
I'm still thinking to flash my phone using Qfil and put version P1a42_S135_1510131022_Q20248.2_ROW instead of Android 6.0 Marhmallow and get rid of those problems.
Could it be done such downgrade?
also looking to upgrade my p1a42 to nougat rom that is stable no bugs. is there a reason you gave cwm instead of twrp? say we go with cwm are there any rom it will not flash or just about any rom it will handle? i prefer twrp by the way there is one for the p1 but people are having issues flashing it. your advice is truly appreciated.
