In this guide, I will show how to how to change from LVM to Chinese unification storage method. Windows OS Only.
This guide is specifically for Oppo Find 7(A/S).
The idea of changing to chinese unification storage method is to have access to 8.1 Android operating system and future Android OS builds.
Please follow these following steps in order be able to run 8.1 Android on your OPPO Find 7.
1) Back up only your internal storage because after you flash the following tools, the internal storage will be wiped completely.
2) Download this file (for OPPO Find 7s) and this file (for OPPO Find 7a) then run the following steps:
Extract the files, and locate the QcomMtk_Driver_Setup.exe (*install this driver*) and reboot your computer system.
After rebooting, take off the battery off the Oppo find 7 and press the volume up button and connect to the PC using a micro USB cable. Go to the device manager, open the ports tab and there should be something like qualcomm etc. If there is no warning sign then you are fine and you should proceed along the steps. If there is a warning sign, just right click on the driver and update by letting windows finding the appropriate drivers.

}
Then go back to the folder where you extract the zip file and locate (X9077_Android5.0_32G_20150520.exe) or X9007 respectively and run as administrator. rights only.
Agree with the licence. As shown in the image.
Now, again, make sure your battery is removed, hold volume up button and connect to the pc.
Click the first top left button as indicated in the image below.
Now, the software should do the rest so please be patient and wait until the green line has finished and the timeclock down on the bottom right as come to a halt.
After the green line has finished, please remove your device and plug back your battery. Let the device fully boot up before moving on the following steps.
After you get to the setup screen. Press and hold the power off button and shutdown fully before going back to the fast boot mode by pressing volume up and power button at the same time, the battery needs to be installed this time.
-
Now, flash the twrp modded image using fast boot flash and download the two files fastboot and twrp-modded img :
1) Have your phone in bootloader mode. (Turn off your phone, press volume up button and power button together and connect usb).
2) Navigate to the folder and click on the top left of the folder and copy that. e.g C:\Users\samgi\Desktop\platform-tools
3) Open cmd and type in: cd C:\Users\samgi\Desktop\platform-tools
4) In cmd type in: fastboot flash recovery image-modded.img
4) Remove USB and press power button and volume down button simultaneously.
-After you have flashed the recovery, boot into recovery and store the ROM, GAPPS and cm13 unified patch in the external sd card using your USB.
Download your favourite 9.0 ROM:
crDroid for example: https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=262369
Install GAPPS (only pico):
http://opengapps.org/
After you have downloaded all the files rom gapps cm13 patch etc. Make sure to flash each of the zip files one by one:
1) Flash ROM
2)Flash Pico Gapps
3)Flash CM13 Patch here
So basically, just head over to https://download.lineageos.org/find7 and download the latest Lineage OS 16 ROM. Then download the MindTheGapps (since pico OpenGapps can't work) from https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=170282 make sure to get 9.0.0arm.
Reboot to recovery, wipe the dalvik, system and cache. Then proceed with installing the the LOS 16 ROM. After that, you can flash the CM 13 patch and the gapps (MindTheGapps). It's ok to do gapps first before the CM 13 patch. I noticed that it makes no difference. Works the same every time.
Well, that's about it, reboot and enjoy. OTA should work after this. I think.
Good luck.
Then, simply clear cache and boot to your 9.0 OS. P.S don't forget to restore your data that you deleted in step one.
Optional: If you want to go back to Color OS or you have hard-bricked your OPPO Find 7(A/S) this tool will help you get back to stock firmware.
STOCK FIRMWARE (LVM)
Here are the instructions to unbrick your phone:
This is going to be a step by step guide on how to unbrick your OPPO FIND 7 (A/S)
Before attempting this guide, Windows is needed to be in "Test Mode".
To do this:
1) Open CMD with admin rights, and type "bcdedit /set testsigning on" without the colons.
2) Restart your computer.
End result:
This will check if this guide is applicable.
Note: Make sure your device has at least 70% battery. Charge it for an hour or so if you are not sure about the amount of battery left.
Note 2: I'll assume you are an admin of the computer you are using.
1) Disconnect your device from your charger/computer, etc.
2) Take out the battery and wait for 5 seconds.
3) Put the battery back in, hold the Power+Volume Up buttons and plug it into the computer.
4) Release your hands, and go to Device Manager. (How to go to device manager below)
1. Click the start menu
2. Right click Computer (Right hand side)
3. Click Properties
4. On the left hand side, click on Device Manager
5) Under Ports, you'll see either QHSUSB_BULK or Qualcomm *blah blah blah* 9006/9008
If you don't see any of the three, you're doing it wrong (Probably).
If you're not seeing it, try connecting your device without the battery.
Next, we uninstall the drivers. Simple enough.
WARNING: This part is only for people seeing Qualcomm 9006/9008 in Device Manager.
1) Uninstall the driver. (Right click your device, then click Uninstall. If prompted, delete driver software too)
2) Unplug your device.
3) Take out the battery and wait for 5 seconds.
4) Put the battery back in, hold the Power+Volume Up buttons and plug it into the computer.
5) Release your hands, and go to Device Manager.
You should see QHSUSB_BULK, if not, you might be doing it wrong.
Now we install the proper drivers.
NOTE: You should be seeing QHSUSB_BULK in your Device Manager, if not you're doing it wrong.
1) Download the Find 5 Drivers and unzip the file anywhere.
2) Right click on your device showing QHSUSB_BULK and click on Update Driver Software.
3) Click on "Browse my computer for driver software", and select the folder in which you extracted the drivers to.
4) It will install automagically. If prompted, click on Install the driver anyway.
After installing, your device should say Qualcomm *blah blah blah* 9006/9008.
The moment all of you have been waiting for. Unbrick!
NOTE: Your device should be connected at all times.
1) Download the tool that will save you below.
2) Extract the contents from the zip file.
3) Open the .exe file with admin rights.
4) There should be a line that is visibly different from others.
5) If there is, click start and wait till that line turns green. (It takes a few minutes. Generally nothing should go wrong at this stage.) If there isn't, you're doing it wrong.
6) After the line turns green, unplug your device and hold the power button until you see the Oppo logo.
7) If all goes well, you should be booted to ColourOS v1.2.5i.
If everything went through smoothly, you should be unbricked and ready to brick your device again.

Sorry for the late reply,
Don't worry, I will upload the tool also that I managed to download when oppo forums was running and luckily saved that on my hard drive :') so if you do brick your phone, the software will put you back to default X9076 color OS software mode so you're safe.
1. This guide is for Oppo Find 7s. The 8.1 android OS does not recognise X9076 (LVM) and shows "encryption unsuccessful" whenever you boot into the OS. However, when your phone shows X9077 (Chinese unified method) the 8.1 recognises and lets you boot successfully. I'm not quite sure why OPPO had to make this sooooo confusing. Lol.
2. I am running the latest Windows 10 Anniversary Update.
3. I'm not sure what you're asking ? It does not matter 32-bit or 64 bit
4. I'm literally running CrDroid and its amazing, the latest update just got out online check it out.
Let me know if you need further help.

The first problem I'm not sure lol ?
The second problem is maybe most likely of background apps turn off any background apps that might be running i.e apps that run constantly Facebook Instagram others. One recommendation to turn off Wifi and mobile data so there is no data incoming/outgoing when you go bed.

That,s weird battery usage. When I leave a 100% battery at night, next morning ( about 8 hours) I have about 90+% left, and I leave WiFi and mobile data on all night. Though I use Servicely and Project Skynet Raising.

Best advice would be to reflash the ROM with pico gapps or at last change to another 8.1 ROM i.e lineage rom or omni 8.0

Hi guys!
Just recently I bought the "HDC Galaxy Note 2" off of fastcardtech. I got it a few days ago, am fairly pleased with it except for the slight miscalibrated touch screen. There are some apps on various markets aiming to fix this by re-applying new calibrations. The problem is that you'll have to be rooted in order to run them.
The phone comes with a built-in calibration setting, called "Als_ps calibration", which you can utizile to correct the sensor. Alas, it only corrects the phone's recognition of obstacles placed above it, so that you accidentaly wouldn't press any undesired button during a call.
Phone: http://www.fastcardtech.com/Galaxy-Note-2-Mega
Here's what I've done so far!
Enabled USB-debugging and installed USB-drivers. [MT65xx_USB_Driver.zip]
Tried the bin4ry root method, normal mode. [Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v18.zip]
This method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460
Everything works just fine until the phone reboots. Bin4ry is then unable to mount or copy the last files needed to apply root permission, see attached picture.
I have attached my specs in a screenshot, nevermind the quality, t'was done by another crap-camera! Sorry ;]
Any kind soul who can help me root this thing?
Edit:
Rooting this device has been made possible by GT35pro. See posts below.

I just created the cwm recovery and root. The link is on my blog. The zip file is password protected so be sure to get it from my blog page.

After you have clockwork mod recovery, use it to flash the root access into the phone.
Have fun!

Extra Guide
Follow the link provided by GT35pro in his first post.
To everyone attempting this flash;
!! First of all, copy the Superuser.zip to the root of your internal phone memory or external SD Card.!!
* Use a high-quality mini-USB cable (The one that comes with your phone should work just fine)
* Connect your MEGA to your pc, without the battery inserted.
(This device will connect and disconnect, when it's visible, be sure to grab it and follow the next step)
* Make sure that you have the right drivers for MTK65xx preloader "mtk65xx Vcom driver" and install them through the Device Manager.
* Insert your battery again, with the cable still connected, and install the second MTK65xx preloader.
* Disconnect phone from pc and remove the battery
* Start up Smart flash Tool and select the scatter file included in the package.
* Now, select and tick the checkbox for Recovery only. Smart Flash Tool will complain about the flash, due to it not containing all the appropriate files needed for a "secure boot". Nevermind that pop-up and proceed with downloading.
* Start Download
* Insert the battery and connect your phone to your pc, with that, the flashing should start.
* Boot Phone into recovery mode (pwr button and vol - or vol +) and install superuser from ZIP-file.
* After reboot you should be rooted.

Fun Fact!
I actually managed to install a pre-rooted HDC S7100 rom on my MEGA.
The port isn't 100% accurate
-Invalid IMEI, this was fixed by Talkingmobile's guide; " how to write imei number for MTK 65XX " -Just google it!
-Auto-rotation is unavailable, no fix yet.
-Als_pl calibration is unavailable (resulting in active screen during call)
Besides that, the rom is arguably better than the MEGA's original N7100 rom, in terms of visual presentation.
Smooth transitions, vivid and vibrant colors would be a good example of aspects that would come out as improved over the original rom.
Interested in the S7100 rom? Just PM me and I'll provide the link.
Cheers!
S_ft_need_download_all_fail (4050)
I'm trying for several days, but always get this error in the flash tool: S_FT_NEED_DOWNLOAD_ALL_FAIL (4050)
Tried on Windows 7 x64, Windows 7 x32 and Windows XP SP3 (x32). Only on the Windows XP computer I was able to make a backup with Flash Tool using the Read Back option.
When I try to flash the red bar goes to 100% then the error message shows...
Does anyone get this error aswell, and did someone manage to solve this?
Please help, I'm in desperate need for root because I need touch screen calibration.
Thnx!!
YES! SUCCES!! I managed to root my HDC Mage :laugh: Did use another method though, check http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2160490 if you are interested.
Anyway, now back to calibrating the touchscreen. What tools are good do fix touchscreen issues? I already tried http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=934500, but I still am not satisfied.
Thnx :good:

Because I tried to order 5 different phones from China including Fastcardtech; they couldn't ship for some reason; even got an empty box from ZOPO mobile. I ended up buying the BLU here in the US, I'm kind of glad it happened, since now I have an N'vidia Tegra 4 CPU, that runs circles around the dual-core phones.
I did order one more phone on ebay from China, been waiting for 2 weeks now. MAKES ME WONDER IF THEY EVEN ACTUALLY SHIP TO THE US AT ALL?
Thank to Paypal I was able to get refunded everytime.

An 80Xx error does not always mean device not connected. It can also mean there is something not right in the scatterfile (error 8038). You should take a look at the sp flash tool logfiles. You can post them here so I can have a look.

There is something wrong in the layout of the scatterfile. Can you post the logiles of sp flash tool? Just zip them all together.
I have had the exactly the same error with my HDC Mage. I just had to rename a small section of the scatterfile and then it was all good.

UGH no custom roms? pff why doesnt that surprise me?
You know what... Im just going to get rid of the darn thing. This phone BLOWS! I traded my 4 things for it.. granted they were all pretty old things. But I was completely honest with the young man. 10 year old laptop in PERFECT CONDITION, ipod touch 2gen jailbroken w/cydia, craig tablet, and my htc rhyme that had been rooted and flashed to pageplus and it said had like 68mins 2000+text and 300mb data left. IM PISSED! My sons little Obama phone takes better pics than this thing. He lied to me and told me if was the i9500 version. I just glanced at the phone when we made the trade and thought okay cool. PFFF WHATEVER.. it is NOT cool at all lol.
Heck since I got it and checked it out fully... using the phone as a paper weight seems like its all it will be good for. SMH oh well. Such is life. Thank you very much for helping me out. I have some one who is fully aware what the phone is and im probably going to trade it for a HTC Evo 3d.

And one of these three States:

UNROOTED (Pink) = The phone is not rooted, but once rooted. THIS STATE I'VE NEVER SEEN
UNROOTED (White) = The phone was never rooted.

According to the European legislation a terminal may be rooted without so we lose the warranty, but instead to use the phone we have to accept LG conditions that say that we can not customize the phone.
As it seems, commented by Spanish users that took your phone Technical Assistance Service (T.A.S.) still this rooted and with installed CWM, T.A.S. spent in warranty, so this method is not necessary, but you never know with whom you can bump sat, so here you have remove the ROOT and leave the phone as something out of factory.
UNROOTED METHOD
INFORMATION
This method serves to take the phone to the T.A.S., or if you want to leave it clean.
Download a ROM to your terminal, operated and country, use this link LG Phone Firmware G2
It enters to the CWM or TWRP Recovery.
Now get from:
CWM - Wipe Data / Factory Reset
TWRP - Advanced Wipeo, and the beams all but the SD.
Go to the reset menu or advanced and click on turn off.
While you press Volume+ connect the USB to the PC, enter Download Mode, as the images above
It runs Windows and follow this LG G2 Stock Firmware (Go Back to Stock)
Click to expand...

CHECK IF IS or IS NOT ROOTED
In the dial pad type:
For the D800 3845#*800#
For the D801 3845#*801#
For the D802 3845#*802#
ETC
Go to the bottom of the menu and click on LG RCT then to Display Result
There are two possible results, Not rooted or Rooted

Include internal storage, or not?
one problem with all that - "UNROOTED (White) = The phone was never rooted." should read "UNROOTED (White) = The phone isn't rooted at this time."
my d802 always returns to that state after I unroot and go back to stock I have to do 2 x full factory reset and using the power button down and vol down trick then if you go into download mode it always shows as unrooted in white.

basically I cannot talk for any other model apart from d802 as this is what I have. but basically all you need to do to get it to show unrooted is to download the lg mobile support tool > open it > plug in usb while holding power and vol up with phone OFF to get into download mode > open the LG mobile support tool > go to options (top right) and press upgrade recovery.... the tool will download the original stock firmware onto the pc then install it on the phone. DO NOT unplug it until 100% on the PC. the phone will reboot about 80% on the pc but phone will have reached 100%. next do 2 factory resets using the power button and vol up method and you will find the unrooted status re-appears if you go back into download mode. Its also worth noting that it works best and flawlessly on com port 4 some ppl have experienced issues on other com ports.
obviously I accept no responsibility for you breaking your phone if you try it but I have done this at least 70 x to get out of bad fashes and it works every single one.
takes you about 30 min for the file to download but without that file downloading its probably about 5 minutes user input the longest/hardest bit being getting into the factory reset screen. lol.

ok so if press the start button on windows then type in device manager in the little box at bottom and press enter it will open up.
now put the phone in download mode (be sure to use a rear usb port too, then when the pc recognizes it go to your device manager, it will show Ports (COM & LPT) in the list and when you press the little plus sign to the left of the name you will see the phone and the port number being used. i.e. LGE AndroidNet USB Serial Port(COM7).
right click it and press properties > port settings tab > advanced > the COM port number is at the bottom of the box click it and select 4. it will probably tell you something else is using it but that is fine it makes no difference click ok then yes and ok again. Now your phone should show as COM Port 4 in the device manager. now close device manager and carry on using lg support tool.

OK, I have personally tried port 5, and 45 port and not have had problems, since this method which I intend to use the official program, with the difference that we say you must firmware flasher.
Thank you for your information, I used the method proposed for some years with my KM900 and my P990, and I have to say that it works perfectly, and not only that, also the firmware that is installed is suitable to the country, model and telephone operator.
The two methods do the same thing, but his left it because I sometimes giving problems, there were times that said that the firmware that had was the more modern and wouldn't update, I am referring to below the D802 models
PD:
Factory Reset does so from 3845#*802#?

yeah I agree I have tried upto 9 different ports now and all seem to work for me but that is not the case for everyone. I know the whole process is supposed to be done on port 4 which is why I suggested it.
you are most welcome if I help but one person with my ramblings then that's a plus...
yes very true that it will put on the correct firmware for country model and telephone operator!
I have also encountered the same problems myself and this method I have never ever ever experienced one.

Hello! Does your method work with a custom recovery and after the reset will it be gone?
i unrooted my D802 and when it was done my storage reduced from 32gb to 10gb . do you have any idea how to fix it?
What are differences between 10A-10B-20A-20B? I have a 16 GB Italy H3G D802, which rom have I to download?
I've checked a logs and found that com.lge.hiddenmenu.RCT_Check/RootingCheckActivity is running during that flow.
Then, dumped all framework and app files and searched for that activity.
Founded in HiddenMenu.odex file, deodexed ...
Actually they are reading value from that file: /persist/rct.cfg
There is second file that this activity cheks: /persist/rct
There is a logic there if file not exist /persist/rct then show RCT check disabled.
May be that will permanently disable root check?
There could be some other application (service or script) that actually doing root check and write this rct.cfg file.
---------- Post added at 03:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:15 PM ----------
Tried to remove that two files.
But device restoring them after rebooting.
Needs to find a way how to log who is accessing that file.
Excuse me, I cannot understand.
I have to:
1 - Install CWM or TWRP
2 - Make a Full Wipe using CWM or TWRP
3 - Update firmware using normal procedure wich downloads and install the correct firmware on my phone
Is this correct?
I ask because doing only the 3rd point I still have "rooted" in download screen.
Perhaps I am missing the full wipe in TWRP.
Any help appreciated
OK, found description for rctd tool
Some workaround:
1. If you create two folders in target folder with the same names as that rct and rct.cfg names than rctd won't able to overwrite then, and from hidden menu device won't display rooted status;
2. Remove rctd tool and put clean files rct and rct.cfg from the unrooted device. Files could be found there.
But still OTA detect root

Ok, looks like from 4.4.2 rtcd no longer exists but you need the files in /persist folder.
So this should not be a problem.
You root only adb, you take the files and put them in a safe place.
You do whatever you want.
You restore the 2 files (while you're root)
You do a full wipe and a firmware recovery.
Thos should take it to a total unroot phone.
Am I right?

Sorry, don't know. I'm trying to find a way install OTA update on rooted device.
Don't like to do a full wipe.

I only connect my ZE551ML to my Windows 7 x64 when I've got to do firmware updates or transfer music, and I haven't done either in a while.
On my "MTP USB Device" driver I'm now getting: This device cannot start. (Code 10)
The ASUS Android Composite ADB and PC Link Interface drivers are loaded and fine.
Things that I've tried:
- the Asus android drivers
- the Intel android drivers
- the universal ADB drivers.
- different USB cables
- different USB slots
The perplexing thing is that the image that allows you to install "ASUS ZenUI PC Suite" is available as a CD drive, "PC Link" works when mirroring my phone onto my computer and using ADB from a command prompt can see my device.
I don't know what I've installed between the last time it worked to now, and I'm at wit's end with what I can do.
Anyone have a suggestion at a possible next step?
Do you by any chance have Windows 7N (one without media player)?
Mine did the same when i connected the missus MTK device.
Unfortunately i need hers to stay for future updates and for using MTK flashtools too.
Great news is the( share link ) built in asus app in M - never used it before until this , click asus share link app on phone whilst connect to PC (for the first installation) and then you can transfer to an from pc to sd (either sd) in share link settings.
Then after - uses your network for transfer ,no cables , saves charge port i guess and its -- Fast !
USBdeview can be used if you want to see/want/remove if old/new drivers might be causing conflicts but am quite happy with the share link app now,ps i`m on windows 10 and too also not sure whether an update came whilst installing MTK destroyed it too

I'm still on Lollipop... Though it does have a sharelink app as well. I've tried setting it up, and on my phone it can't see my microSD card.
I'll give USBdeview a go and see if uninstalling all the Samsung/Asus/Intel drivers does anything.
It's the strangest thing... why would I be able to see it in ADB, be able to install the PC Link programs from the ROM and yet not be able to see internal storage?

Share link app - 3 dots -settings - storage location - click on /sdcard -- opens up to show internal sd and whatever your ext sd is called --select your choice -- click OK , you may have to allow rights to it in file manager :good:
Usbdeview should be ok
Why it happens ? conflicts with drivers i suspect

That's the issue, when I get to that point it only shows "Internal Storage." As an aside, my phone's bootloader is unlocked and it's rooted.
*EDIT* - When I get to the part where I choose the directory, the file manager comes up with the "Recent" page. if I press the menu button, I get the option to hide SD card and file size, but in the list to the left it only lists "Internal Storage"

I just removed all the drivers that I could tell were related and am about to reboot.
phone settings - storage -- eject sd -- remount , set up sd for ext storage ? Never used this before so am at a loss , my ext sd was there when i clicked on /sdcard along side internal and after OK i followed on screen commands to allow it . Again , this is in M and never used it before on LP.
When you open file manager , your sd is there alongside internal or blanked out ?
Good luck hope you get it sorted , keep us posted BBFN

Still run into the same issue after remounting. It lets me select my internal, but not my SD. I guess it'll have to do for the time being - use it to move from computer to internal, then move it from internal to external.
And Removing selective ones in USBdeview still gave me the same issue:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
so I went ahead and uninstalled all the ones that were for the specific USB slot, and am about to reset. Fingers crossed...
Ok try the info in ASUS file manager
open file manger , 3 dots , about , help and feedback , 2nd box down

I can't upgrade to M without being able to transfer files to my phone :laugh::crying:
And more importantly, I don't know if upgrading would change anything when it comes to the Windows 7 drivers. I keep trying to update driver to the Asus ones, but it keeps reverting to the generic "MTP USB Device" one. I've even tried to go into the windows inf files and remove that generic driver, but then windows won't accept the Asus ones at all.
When I go into the "feedback and help" section I get an error:
I've just about had it up to here with this phone. At the beginning it was giving me similar issues but I managed to sort it out... and now we're back to the issues that occurred back near the phone's launch. Full goddamn circle.
What build /date in settings ?
We gonna get you updated v soon .
First you need to unroot it.
Then fastboot flash stock recovery which corresponds with your build..
Then adb sideload a fresh copy of the build your on .You know how to perform these tasks above ???
If not , we do it soon
last but least don't smash it up
Have a read thru here to get general idea what needs doing

Haha, thank you. I'll try to stay calm.
I'm sitting at 194 right now and the security patch level was last updated July 1, 2016.
This phone is my daily driver and I need to go to bed, but I'll Titanium Backup the apps and make a nandroid backup tomorrow as soon as I get home from work so I can start flashing.
It's been awhile... should I flash back the stock recovery before I unroot? And it's been giving me issues with the micro SD card occasionally unmounting on it's own as well as Google Play services crashing at random times (I've tried all the tricks & tips up to uninstalling it to get rid of corrupted installation, but it still persists)... Should I do a factory reset after flashing the stock image just to try to clear everything up? I'd have to move everything to my microSD card first though...

First - transfer your stuff to pc off internal thru sharelink
unroot , flash back stock recovery .194 - reboot to recovery , update over adb , adb sideload .196 stock firmware , which should be renamed to MOFD_SDUPDATE and put in your fastboot/adb folder previously
adb cmd >
adb sideload MOFD_SDUPDATE.zip
set up not connecting to wifi - skip everything you can-- factory reset .
Set up correctly this time . Run for 3 days without any modifications . Make sure everything is running correctly :good:

Already running into issues with the first step. Share Link gets to about 100mb transferred, then my phone's screen blacks out and is non-responsive, though it shows touchscreen presses (I have that turned on in developer settings). The transfer hits around 200mb and then the transfer gets cancelled. It's also rebooted twice.
This is getting to ludicrous levels.
*EDIT* - I tried uninstalling all the USB controllers in Windows Device manager in case they were corrupted, but I'm still getting the same failure with the generic "MTP USB Device" being installed instead of the Asus one and still getting that yellow exclamation mark. When I try to update it to the Asus one, it fails and disappears when I unplug and replug the phone. This is maddening because it was working in October...
*EDIT 2* - I'm thinking of testing it on another windows installation... I've got some spare HD space that i could partition and install another copy of my Win 7 on to see if it's my Windows or phone that's corrupted. If it's not my phone, I'll be able to transfer everything out...
Hey some news , after reading what you are experiencing - I remembered i have another lappy with windows 10 on in bedroom wardrobe - Not been used for nearly a yr , fired it up with wifi off and both my drives are visible
So , mine IS either MTK driver conflict or a windows update or both
Whatever , i will update it today and test further.
This does`nt explain your sharelink probs tho, mine transferred 443mbs of CM14.1 in 3 mins just now with the same prob you have.
Use file manager instead to transfer to ext SD. Instead of sharelink
And go about sorting it out , with whats already mentioned and with the fresh copy of 7 - hopefully it is windows and not the phone you said you had probs with from new
So it failed to install the driver in the new Windows 7 install, but somehow booting into recovery allowed me to access and copy everything off of internal storage. But of course, booting back into normal mode breaks it again.
I'm just going through backing up my SMS and using Titanium backup for the apps and I'll be ready to take the next step.

Are you familiar with flashtools ?
It's just another method to flash a raw file in fastboot boot loader state .and boots you into system by itself after about 10 mins..but I'm a bit unsure you should use it with the probs re screen blanking earlier with share app.
Maybe we keep that as a last resort
good luck

My usual method of Flashing OTAs and ROMS was using this guide. I'm not familiar with flashtools, but I've used Odin before and I'm a quick study.
Now, I've got a few things that I would normally take back to stock/remove before unrooting and updating:
- Adaway hosts files
- busybox
- Viper4android sound.conf mod
- build.prop modification for permissive SELinux
- might be more but I can't remember.
I also recall flashing a new kernel at some point, but it was a while ago and I don't remember how to find out if what I have now is stock or not. I think it was this one.
Do I need to worry about taking all that back to stock before reflashing .194?
I usually edit the OTAs so I could flash them with TWRP, so I never had to flash stock recovery back in the past... what's the ADB name for the recovery partition?
*EDIT* - I'm also not familiar with all this new stuff like Magisk 8 and seamless root. Is this the go-to method for rooting 6.0? I like the sound of being able to root and unroot on the fly to bypass root detection by apps. I think I want to flash CleanSTOCK rather than just stock MM if it's less bloated.

Lets just get you up and running stock for a few days -- No mods ok ?
I think its best we flash raw at bootloader state , refresh here i will add files to download ready and info how to:good:
Flashtools - http://www.mediafire.com/file/sm76jyyz8t1axmz/AsusFlashToolInstaller_1.0.0.17.rar install and run as admin
Raw collection of and thanks go to Realyoti there - choose .196, bottom one last of the LP
https://yadi.sk/d/FijRoAVJtvRiG
Video
Ignore the first 2:17 mins - fast forward to 2:18 mins for flashtool flash and adding raw and general settings > choose wipe data to prevent any bugs from previous state
Note -- you just let it complete on its own , the video goes to show how to correct serial number , you dont need to -- once it starts flashing - let it finish

Haha, sorry for putting the cart before the donkey at the end there...
But I was asking if I need to remove any/all of these mods before flashing the raw file? And does the raw file also include the recovery partition? That's why I was asking where to flash "recovery.img" to go from TWRP to stock recovery...
Just 19% into transferring all my Titanium backups to Google Drive right now.
Now dear friends I will give the solution of problems that occur after unbrick leeco pro3 who has internal storage problem like this
infinite thanks to my Chinese friend Hua found this solution by itself and thanks tora33 from leeco.re and mbtt from forum.one-teams(i use picture from him)
I'm not in charge of the operation to be performed, is designed to assist you in these processes
Charge your mobile phone
1) download : qfil, (that have correct partition) and put in C:/
https://yadi.sk/d/piVn4bpf3MqcHC
2) download : FlashOne1,9 , put in a folder and extract it ,
https://yadi.sk/d/PmVChpqZ3Mj2hz
3) download :fastboot rom
https://yadi.sk/d/uzdwFhie3MqcJs
4)download qq driver
https://yadi.sk/d/U4SIDH3B3Mixsh
run "FlashOne1,9"
How to qfil Flash
When select qfil flash type, press power key, volume up and volume down key at the same time, then the phone enter into qfil mode, connect USB cable with PC, wait for PC install driver automatically, then press ‘Refresh’ button on the tool, serial port will display on UI, select the port you want to flash, and make sure there is no other qcom device connected.
Select corresponding flash zip file, the path of zip file should not contain Chinese and special character. (Under qfil mode, the tool can’t get hardware information, you should check if the software and hardware is matching yourself.)
Press ‘Flash’ button, then start to unzip flash zip file to current folder, but if there is already a corresponding unzip file existing, ‘Decompression folder is exist, re-decompress or not?’ dialog will pop up, if select yes, will re-decompress, else not. After unzip finished, start to flash the phone automatically, and the progress bar display flashing progress(for me the bar not move stuck %1 i did wait 15minute then unplug phone and push power button long time, and at the same time, the flashing log will also be shown on UI.
After flash complete or error happened, a notification dialog will pop up.
after phone start go boot logo and wait by the way open fastboot rom and push le_zl1_fastboot
everyting go fine u get 24gb for 32gb phone and 54gb for 64gb phone
good luck i hope help you
Thanks

If you have another storage problem, look for another solution.

I followed instructions but it didn't work.
What can I do in order to increase storage to 24 GB?

Is it for restoring the original storge capacity for Le Pro 3? The reason why I'm asking this is becuase I am currently stuck on qufil rom because it keeps making error everytime I tried to go to the launcher. Will it work on my circumstance?
