can you acces recovery mode? or download mode? If you can, you can search for the stock rom and flash this one?

here are the specs of both devices:
http://www.asus.com/Tablets_Mobile/ASUS_Fonepad_7_ME372CG/specifications/
http://www.sogi.com.tw/mobile/pad/products/10975/spec-ASUS+Fonepad+7+LTE+ME7230CL
Everything relating cpu, memory, display size etc seems the same.
For as far I've seen the only differences are : bluetooth version, LTE and android version.
I think in the worst case you will just keep having the bootloop, or you won't be able to use LTE and/or bluetooth the way it should..
Either way, I don't take any responsibility's on me, but if it were me I would try it.
I searched for the specific rom for your device but I can't seem to find one...

try the 2 official one at the bottom of the post, the complete bottom.
There is an official one for both sku versions.
If you would expect any raw to work, it would be the official from asus, no?
If you get one of these two to work, quickly make nandroid backup and then you can continu to flash the one you want, perhaps via official update or so

i got same error result sir..i guess this model requires different files for flashing (ASUS_BUNDLE.zip) because i try to rename the raw file it continue and rebooted the tab then execute ERASE. after that it prompts again for another sets of errors pertaining to unable to extract bla bla bla and errors can't fine media resource files.
maybe i should for the official release of asus.

1. Did you unlock bootloader?
2. Reflash recovery via fastboot.

How?
Sent from my HUAWEI P6 S-U06 using XDA Free mobile app

Install HiSuite (it will install drivers for your device), ADB on your PC.
Unlock bootloader if you did not.
Extract recovery image from your actual firmware, using Huawei Update Extractor.
Flash recovery via fastboot by the command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
You can find in this forum how to accomplish every step.

huawei p6s seems to have a rollback action even when you are rooted.
You cannot delete any system app because they are restored when you restart your phone. In addition, you cannot edit build.prop, as you are not allowed to save the file. Do you know Kostyan_nsk what we should do to change permissions?
P.S. I have rooted the phone and I have flashed TWRP.

thank you very much!!the main problem of this phone is that there is little support in the forums..
unfortunately in recovery mode I can't find immutable_list and when I find it through Root Explorer I can't delete it because it's protected.
P.S. Everything I find for this phone is through Google Translate, as in english there is no information

Do you have any idea? I tried the method with emulator and even though I delete "set_immutable.list", when I restart the phone guess it's back.

Try to unroot and then root again with other app. Vroot or Kingo root for example.

you can make it tool kk.zip

Now this HUAWEI P6 S-U06 does not even respond to formating and hard reset option in setting menu, it is just sticking on restating and stays on those. Thinese words..

yeah, i had thought about it . However, I don't now which commands use to extract and flashing the image back . I did something similar to flash the root img when I was using the lollipop .
I tried to extract the .cab file to get system.img within the KDZ , but he always gives error. I am following some guides on how to extract files .kdz .

I could not find anywhere else on how to extract the system.img image from my phone using send_comand .
I tried in every way to extract the KDZ , but without success , it seems that the old tutorials do not work in the new KDZ :crying:

I managed to pull the system.img to my folder of the phone. I can see the file, but I get an error when copying it to the PC. I used the following code
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 bs=8192 skip=55296 count=529920 of=/data/media/0/system.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
When trying to copy by using adb pull , he says I 'm not allowed . The file is in the / sdcard / .

What are u guys doing. I just use build prop editor. I has a ls991. I dont have to dimp my system image.
Sorry apparantly i didnt read. Didnt see no root

The idea is sound, as the bootloader lock should only check for an unmodified boot image (kernel).
Theoretically you could install exposed, etc. on the image. I had it in mind to build something for the Canadian variant once I have time.

Yes, the Sprint LG G4 staff even has a modified system.img marshmallow . I believe I'm 90 % of been way , just need to figure out how to get permission to move the system.img from / sdcard / to my PC.

Check out the low effort root thread, there are commands for dumping the system partition for each model. You'll then need a Linux distribution installed to mount and modify the image. There are also instructions for flashing modified system image back to the phone in the thread through download mode commands. Be very careful you are using the right command for your model.
If I have time I'll try to get more details to you but you should be able to find everything you need right here on XDA.

Thank you so much guys! I managed to extract and edit the system.img on ubuntu and I've done the flash. Everything working 100% , finally my phone seems to have 5.5 -inch true. I'm using 530dpi now modified in build.prop without adb bugs (Marshmallow ROM)
I took the trip and already and enabled all apps in double window too!

I checked before, xposed without root should be okay, just need to replace the correct file on the system image.

I will replace and pasted the files downloaded from Xposed .zip. From what I saw in the scripts, there is no line to be added. But I will not have time for flash in this week ..

1. Backup your important files and make sure you have enough charge.
2. Download this to the INTERNAL storage of your phone (not the external as card): http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/development/stock-h815-20g-images-kdz-flashable-t3450503
3. Boot into TWRP recovery. (Use the quick boot app from the play store if you're having trouble). If asked if you want to restore to factory settings, select yes.
4. Flash the downloaded zip file. Be patient as it will take a long time. Don't pull the battery.
If this doesn't work for you, try the kdz method: https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/general/guide-lg-g4-stock-firmware-to-stock-kdz-t3107848

Your IMEI number is written on the back of the phone, under the battery. Write it into the box on this website: http://www.imeipro.info/check_lg.html
The third line tells you your phone's model. Mine is H815, for example.
Then search XDA/Google for Kdz file.
Failing that, use the LGUP tool to restore your phone. You're not the first to have this problem and everything has been answered before if you search for it.

is there any way to get into twrp recovery while in bootloop?

[ROOT] SM-J730G/GM/F Galaxy J7 Pro

Below you will find my procedure to root the SM-J730G/GM Galaxy J7 Pro - Exynos 7870
(may also work for J730F, see post #3)
This procedure has been tested on J730GMDXU1AQF8 firmware. It may work for future releases or it may not.
If an updated firmware becomes available my advice is to update with FLASHFIRE to maintain root.
DISCLAIMER: YOU FLASH THESE AT YOUR OWN RISK. THE KNOX COUNTER WILL BE TRIPPED AND WILL POTENTIALLY VOID YOUR WARANTY. HAVING THE STOCK FIRMWARE TO HAND IS ALSO ADVISED
NOTE: BEFORE MAKING MODIFICATIONS, ON SOME ANDROID 5.1.1/6.0/7.0 DEVICES IT IS NECESSARY TO GO TO:
Settings -> Developer Options -> OEM unlocking
AND ENABLE OEM UNLOCK FIRST OR YOU MAY ENCOUNTER 'BLOCKED BY FRP LOCK' WHEN FLASHING.
Instructions:
◘ 1. Download the files below:
sm-j730gm_SR3-SuperSU-v2.79-SR3_root_boot_32
ODIN 3.12
SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones
◘ 2. Install the USB driver and ODIN to Windows.
◘ 3. Boot your device to RECOVERY mode then select FACTORY RESET. THIS WILL WIPE YOUR DEVICE AND YOU WILL LOSE ALL DATA. (This procedure is required to remove encryption or your device won't boot)
◘ 4. From RECOVERY, IMMEDIATELY Boot your device to DOWNLOAD mode then connect your USB cable. (DO NOT LET YOUR DEVICE REBOOT NORMALLY OR YOUR DEVICE WILL RE-ENCRYPT)
◘ 5. Run ODIN and place the sm-j730gm_SR3-SuperSU-v2.79-SR3_root_boot_32.tar file as is in the AP slot. Don't change any options and hit START.
◘ 6. Wait for the device to flash and reboot.
◘ 7. Install the SuperSU apk from Play store and you should be rooted.
◘ 8. Have fun!

works for 730F
Hi ashyx, thanks you! I can confirm that this method is working for the J7 730F/DS model whith Version J730FXXU1AQF4.

Does anyone know why the bloatware can not uninstall on Android 7 Nougat? I have rooted my J730G and use Link2SD app to uninstall the default apps, but the apps can not remove. I can use link2sd app on Android 6 Marshmallow to remove default app.

I use System App Remover from Playstore.

I have used the apps and others apps but It failed, It looks like storage protection.
Update:
I could removed the apps using ES File Explorer by activated Root Exlorer -> Mount R/W

Great buddy

Yes, you are right. It does not work for SM-J730F and SM-J730G (tested). Stuck on samsung logo.

I mean, will the TWRP work for G/DS?
I'm sorry for messing the thread...
I know the modified boot.img will work for G/DS.
But Oves said flashing TWRP and wipe data will make it work ( Correct me if I'm wrong)

As long as the variants don't differ in CPU/SoC (Qualcomm/Exynos), with Samsung it never was a big deal to use twrp from a "brother" model. Always make a backup first before flashing critical system parts and keep the original odin flash file in handy.

Thanks. Now I know sir.

Hi. I read through this new thread, and the original thread by Oves (India) who was working on the root for the J730G/DS as well. @ashyx love the work, thank you very much. But when I click on the 32 bit root file on androidfilehost.com it gives me a 404 error, file not found.
I think the link is either broke, or the file has been removed. If people are reading the old thread, they may eventually make there way here to find the updated file.
Can you please repost the link for the proper file? Thanks again for all your hard work!

It hasn't been removed it's still working just checked.
Maybe try a different browser or disable any ad blockers.

That is strange, I still can't get it to work via Chrome or Firefox. I just tried it now on my mobile, same thing.
This is the link from the browser:

Well, no worries, I'm sure somehow I will figure it out. I'm using the link on the first page of this thread for the 32 bit file.
