I own a ZTE N909D. Because there is not much data available in the English forums I want to gather everything I found out in this one thread.
Basic specs
Screen size: 4.5"
Screen resolution: 854 x 480 pixel
Processor: Qualcomm MSM8625Q (Arm v7)
Original Android version: 4.1.2
N909: single SIM / N909D: dual SIM
Root
In the past I used vRoot, which nowadays is called iRoot - I did not find any correlation to the i-products so far There is also an apk-file available, thus, you do not need a PC for rooting. What I did not like is the Chinese superuser-app. That one can be replaced with whatever you like (don't forget to uninstall the Chinese afterwards).
Searching through the (Chinese) forums I came across a few recoveries, which are working on my D-version, although they were created for the single SIM variant:
Recoveries
CWM v6.5.0.1:
Language: Chinese
Original compilation by ???: I am sorry, I lost the original link. I only have the IMG-file (download link below).
TWRP v2.5.0.0:
Language: Chinese / English
Original compilation by Yang: http://www.gaojiquan.com/thread-9330-1-1.html. A German guy has it available for direct download: TWRP 2.5.0.0 for ZTE N909
I translated it back to English (download link below)
TWRP v2.8.4.0:
Language: Chinese / English
Original compilation by 99646P: http://tieba.baidu.com/p/3559914472. It is a dual language version, where you can change to English within the recovery. My problem was that it started straight in Chinese, which made it difficult for me to find the setting for the language switch. Direct link to the download site: http://pan.baidu.com/s/1hqGfoVy
I modified it to English / English for English start-up (download link below)
TWRP v3.0.0.0:
Language: Multilingual
Original compilation by 99646P: http://tieba.baidu.com/p/4349805138. It is a multi language version, where you can change to English or some other languages within the recovery. My problem was that it started straight in Chinese, which made it difficult for me to find the setting for the language switch - no issue after that was done. Direct link to the download site: http://pan.baidu.com/s/1hrhkLOK
Kernels
Original kernel from ZTE: http://support.zte.com.cn/support/news/NewsDetail.aspx?newsId=1005182
Original ZTE kernel patched up to version 3.4.113: https://github.com/xdatravelbug/android_kernel_zte_n909d
For the dual SIM variant I did not find any updated ROM newer than Android 4.1.2 until now. The single SIM version has several custom ROMs available.
ROMs
to be added

I bricked ZTE N909. Can you help me to unbrick it? It can boot to stock recovery, but every time update fail and factory reset stuck at logo after restart? Do you know how to boot in fastboot or something else? Can you please upload stock restore files to try with it?

Not exactly sure what is failing during the update. But you can try the following:
* Install a custom recovery
* Download either the original update package from ZTE N909 Taiwan ROM or a custom ROM version
* Install that ROM
As you can boot into stock recovery, you can also try to clean/erase all partitions in there or you do it via TWRP. The usual way going to fastboot (with the phone switched off) is by pressing and holding power + volume up (or down). In fastboot mode connect your phone to USB and open a command prompt. If you only want to test the custom recovery use "fastboot boot <image.img>". If you want to directly flash the custom recovery use "fastboot flash recovery <image.img>"
Let me know if this information does not help.
Request cm11 rom or newer cm rom
Hi!please update the cm rom for n909 please please!Thank you so much.

I am working on it trying with Marshmallow for now, because to my knowledge that it the latest supported version for our old Qualcomm device. Pls be patient as I am not that experienced with compiling and just try it for fun
Quick update after a long time: I patched the original kernel v3.4.0 to v3.4.113. Trials are still ongoing if something screwed up doing that. Especial the bluetooth files caused some issues during the patches because ZTE uses different variable-names than Linux.
HI,
I bought my Mi Max 32GB in Indonesia and it came preinstalled with unofficial distributor ROM. It can't do OTA updates, so I flashed to latest MIUI Global Developer using MiFlash Beta through adb edl mode. My bootloader is still locked. The flashing process went successfully and I'm using the device without any problem.
Then I realized that my phone does not have LTE/4G option, I already try everyting on the internet but no result, including:
Set locale to Singapore / Malaysia
Dialing *#*#4636#*#*
Factory reset
Reflash
Flash your max with china stable/dev ROM, wish some lucky there...
yes..
i confirm that LTE will be enabled in both dev and stable china rom
or,,
try the custom rom: RR or CM13
regards
Maybe u can use this trick which need u to add a little modification to your device buildpromt. I already try it before and it works on my mi max.
Actually there is a link that can guide you how to do it but i'm sorry that i can't tell you rightnow coz i forgot about it. I'll do some search for a while and will inform you later when i find it again..
Ps: sorry about the grammar coz am not that fluent enough on english and am a newb in this forum
*update:
Am sorry about the late update and about the guide, am sorry again that i can't give you the link bcoz of the forum rules.
Based from the web, what i can tell you is this :
Firstly,, DWYOR!! am not responsible for bricking your device!!
must have root on device
have root xplorer or buildprop editor or any other like it installed
now use root xplorer navigate it to /root/system then find build.prop
open build.prop with HTML editor or text editor
find text ro.product.device=hydrogen then add # in front of it like this #ro.product.device=hydrogen
save it and reboot
now go to the network setting u can see LTE prefered is there
notes:
this trick can only be applied to MIUI 8 global dev rom (idk if this can also be applied to miui 8 chinese dev vers rom and there is a different edited thing for miui 7)
hydrogen is another name for 3/32 MiMax so for another xiaomi phones it will be different ex. mi4c=libra, RN3 Mediatek=hennessy etc
this trick can be applied to any xiaomi devices(sez the web not me) that already support LTE
lastly,, DON'T FORGET TO ALWAYS BACK UP b4 you do all of this!! in case something goes wrong.
i already tried this and it works on my MiMax running on 6.8.11 global dev rom and now on 6.8.25 global dev rom it also work.
Update: The instructions below are for the AGM X1 eu version, for the AGM X1 International version follow this thread, it's a work in progress and not available yet.
As you might be aware the AGM X1 is a fantastic rugged android, aside from the great hardware, the source code of the phone is available to devs. The combination of excellent ruggedness, hardware and open source makes the AGM X1 "the best choice in phones" at the moment for me period.
Unfortunately the information on how to root and install the available Lineage OS port is not very clear
I spent a few hours trying to find the best place to start and it's quite difficult to find

Now here comes the difficult part, trying to decipher the following text
Text from thread (bad english)
Installation takes place in a similar way as inthis post, Except that you need to choose the same name! The fifth! The item and the installation of the root rights occurs automatically when you exit TWRP.
Can anyone help me with this, I cannot decipher the above paragraph. Also note that this forum is broken and not working correctly as a site (many issues including: no registration available and also the important link in the paragraph above does not work)https://forum-lw-1.xda-cdn.com/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif

Does any one have any advise please. Obviously I've checked the Manufacturers site they have not provided a driver. The chipset is Qualcomm MSM8952.

Hello, for the drivers, simply plug the phone on USB and select CD in options (where you can check 'simply reload' mtp etc ...)
On the computer you can install the drivers now
Hi Skill3r,
Recommended (MAYBE THE DRIVERS WORK ON OTHER VERSIONS OF WINDOWS, BUT LINUX IS SO MUCH EASIER/BETTER)
I gave up on Windows XP. Now I'm using Xubuntu 16.04 LTS and EVERYTHING IS CONNECTING TO THE COMPUTER with this guide (without going to qtadb installation)
http://bernaerts.dyndns.org/linux/74-ubuntu/354-ubuntu-xenial-android-adb-fastboot-qtadb
p.s the vendor ID is "Qualcomm, Inc": with the code: 05c6 (it's in that github download in the link above, no need to add it specially just follow the guide)
The phone is recognized no special drivers required IT ALL THERE ALREADY! I took the commands from the bat file, changed (take away .exe e.g fastboot.exe to fastboot)
So the problem I'm getting now just after loading twrp with this command
fastboot boot recovery_AGM-X1_es_by_MD5dev.img
And this problem is............
That the touchscreen is unresponsive and I'm unable to check the box and swipe to allow TWRP to modify the system.
I have the AGM X1 International edition.
For me also:
Wenn I´m in the TWRP menu, i´m nt able to click on a button or swipe the last button, because the Touchscreen doesn´t work.
How can I solve this problem, install twrp and root the phone? because i would install LINAGEOS...or what is the best Rom/Custom Rom for the agm x1?
Please help me.
thanks
Both twrp image files below (twrp 3 and 3.1) have the touchscreen problem

motsch_, what version of AGM X1 do you have, international?
Have you found any references to this problem in the main discussion pages.
We need to look for any references to this problem, or special img's for this version of phone.
Here's the older xda thread on the agm x1
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ge...ualcomm-snapdragon-617-4gb-64-t3533005/page12
Hi,
how can I see which version does i have?
For the moment i havent found any solution for installing twrp.
I have rooted the phone with Kingroot.
Doesnt exist a solution for us?
We can go to "settings" > "about phone" > scroll to bottom and let me know the
hardware version
software version
kernel version
I know mine is X1 international not EU as I just bought it and the EU version is discontinued, it has the following
hardware version: V1.00
software version: L1253.6.03.01.BYD
kernel version: 3.10.73
Also is there any awesome developers out there that would be interested in making a TWRP version - forked from the original TWRP and put on github.
And maybe then make your own port of Lineage, again with all changes to original Lineage forked on github.
Open Source and transparency of course is the reason for this.
Any one else with a AGM X1, please chime in because if we can get just a few dollars together we can get this done very quickly.
I pledge $25 for round one
Here's a reference to the touchscreen issue

Hi liamotoub,
Thanks for the information. So Lineage OS is not available on the international version of the AGM X1 yet. I see.
Also Thank you skill3r for the links, I see they are 404 now unfortunately.
liamotoub, you seem to know what you're doing? would you consider taking on this as a project.
It's certainly worth keeping an eye on 4PDA, pitty I cannot read russian. If any members of 4PDA in the loop regarding the AGM X1 international are reading this please chime in. Thank you all
Hello, unfortunately I'm not a programmer, I just do "trial and error".

With TWRP you can flash another image (lineage OS for example, when we find or make a suitable version for the international version AGM X1)
TWRP will also give you the option to get root permissions, so you can use certain apps that require it. It's like the difference between user and administrator account in windows. It's called rooting because Android is based on Linux, the root account is the account with "super user" privileges, your phone will be open to allow more areas of the system to be used/wrote to/read. It allows your phone it's full potential.
With TWRP we can also do backups and restores of the entire existing ROM and phone contents
So TWRP is the first step before we get the ROM (lineage OS) on the phone https://forum-lw-1.xda-cdn.com/images/smilies/cowboy.gif
Another option for rooting is available called King Root however this comes with a lot of MALWARE AND ADWARE and it is advised not to use it. Besides it doesn't have all the flashing, backup and restore tools anyway. It just gets you root.
That is why we really need to find a working copy of TWRP for the AGM X1

Image.gz ramdisk_agma3eu.img dt.img will be incapsulated in boot.img.
Test if kernel works:
#adb push boot.img boot
If not boot restore previous boot image.
notes:
1.if you load the international kernel config, and you got some errors related to VENDOR, enable
CONFIG_MACH_HIS_SMARTPHONE CONFIG_HIS_BOOT_INFO
and fill CONFIG_HIS_VENDOR_NAME: Android CONFIG_HIS_PRODUCT_NAME:agma3eu
2.if you got an error related to msm_dba_internal.h not found, edit
drivers/video/msm/msm_dba/msm_dba.c and replace #include <msm_dba_internal.h> with #include "msm_dba_internal.h"
PS. replacing my boot.img is not sufficient to make Lineage 13 and FlymeOS5 work, they go in bootloop.
I've uploaded the TWRP versions for the AGM X1 "International version" from the 4PDA links above, to save somebody the trouble of signing up. Version 3.1 is what you want I think (but maybe the backups/restores don't work on v3.1 as skill3r has pointed out or maybe the international version is different?)

These 2 files should be TWRP 3.0.3 and 3.1.0 right?
I want to point out that also the latest 3.1.1 ( relased for the gold X1 by a Spanish forum, movilesdualsim) works on international X1 mega:#!vB9g3Aab!_gyrr6rP_rJDheGgIseI2u2TglNw1vmv7dDjUnDYJb4 with not encrypted phone.
To try it without touching the recovery partition use:
#adb reboot bootloader
#fastboot boot recovery_name.img
EDIT: it give some problems when flashing new INTernational ROMs, because they think the phone is GOLD and refuse to install due to their updater-script; should be sufficient to modify the build.prop of this recovery or a similar file, with international version "signature".
TWRP 3.0.3 3.1.1, those that I tried, fail to recognize encrypted fylesistems, so backups of this kind will not work.
Another minor bug is the wrong date (1970) in automatic naming of backups folder, but that's common on most phones.
I managed to make FlymeOs 5.1 boot on international X1, but I don't recomend it, it's full of bloatwares and wifi and other things looks to be not working
https://mega.nz/#!djJ3jbbT!Kr6qMyTcggsrYyPeDnySHpp7EOgUZnG-tvTqewdqkmk
Make full working nandroid backup before trying it.
To port lineage 13 I think marshmallow kernel sources are needed, with present sources only lollipop roms could be ported AFAIK, like CM 12.1.
Question to X1 users: on stock rooted rom, do root requesting apps (afwall, kernel audiutor etc) start at boot time? On mine no, I have to start them manually.
On stock rom beware of these preinstalled apps, may be adware:
com.gangyun.beautysnap
com.oupeng.max.hisense
Is there any specific advantage using the TWRP movilesdualsim 3.1.1 version rather than the 4PDA versions other than a slightly higher version.
If I encrypt my phone would there be any other issues other than not being able to do twrp backups and restores? It would still work?

You must install the firmware from the mirror version (The mirror and the tablet like version have exactly the same internals) so the hardware is the same CM84, therein a 1.90 beta version that would work great, it has some better quality of life enhancements! on that thread I asked in Russian if I can flash that mirror firmware on my tablet like device, I flashed it and everything was ok! In case anyone is searching info, here is the thread from 4pda:
https://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=792739
If you manage to make an account (there are tutorials on web how to solve 4pda Russian captcha to register) you will se a download link from a custom rom named CATS IV you can safely flash.
Hi Hardy, mind to share with me the firmware you used to flash your device? i bought this car cam from china and it does not come with google playstore and cannot install apk apps... hope you can assist me for the firmware. Thanks in advance.
Here do you have the download link from the latest CM84 firmware:
https://disk.yandex.ru/d/qhbWzQD43Q94GN
hey got a similar DVR android mirror. Was wondering if you could send CATs IV firmware? I don't see it on that website?
Hi, i have the same device, my son played with it and locked it by pin. Can't find a way to factory reset it.
If i enter recovery mode i get a android photo and can't go further.
Any help to reset the device?
I recovery mode I can't pass the image with broken android.
