Hello guys. I'm from Brazil and I did not see anything about root here, just a post and very difficult for beginner users. I have done a complete tutorial in PT BR and resolve to translate here for you. Sorry for the mistakes in English, I used Google Translate. I also did a video explaining, you can understand very well, the process is simple, but I have detailed everything.
The ROOT process is extremely delicate and in some cases can damage the device, fortunately most of the time everything is reversible, but you must be very careful at each step of this guide. It is worth remembering that all the risk is on your account and I have tested all the procedures.
There is a method of doing ROOT on Zenfone 3 MAX ZC520TL where SP Flash Tools software is used to install Custom Recovery and then install SuperSu for ROOT access. The problem with this method is that it did not work for me, and I received several types of errors between them.
ERROR: S_BROM_DOWNLOAD_DA_FAIL (0x7D4)
ERROR: S_DL_GET_DRAM_SETTING_FAIL (0x13BE)
Both with no apparent solution, could be anything from drivers to the version of Android I'm using. As I understand it, SP Flash Tools only works with Android 6.0, and I'm in version 7.0.
Without further explanation, let's go to what matters in this tutorial:
How to make ROOT on Zenfone 3 MAX ZC520TL
Reminding me that I am in ROM 7.0 version WW-14.12.1707.48. This tutorial is a bit different from what you're used to, and I need to explain why.
Unlock Bootloader for Zenfone 3 MAX ZC520TL
Asus provides an APK on its website to unlock the Zenfone 3 MAX ZC520TL bootloader, the problem is that this APK does not do much, for some reason it does not work fully.
But it can release some feature that allows the installation of a custom boot, which is what we will do in this tutorial.
Download the Asus APK UnlockTool: https://www.asus.com/us/Phone/ZenFone-3-Max-ZC520TL/HelpDesk_Download/
The APK does not fully unlock the bootloader, but it does release some important things. Install and authorize the APK to release Bootloader.
Install the APK;
Accept the terms;
Accept the unlocking of the Zenfone 3 MAX ZC520TL Bootloader;
If you do not perform this procedure, you may have the error "FAILED (remote: not allowed in locked state)" error - Thanks to User lukesouzaOFC DMC for warning.
As the bootloader is not unlocked 100%, it is impossible to pass a Custom Recovery and install SuperSu or Magisk and thus have ROOT access.
So the XDA user dr_awesome867 created a ROOT method on Zenfone 3 MAX using Magisk , the whole process is simple, but I'll detail step-by-step here so you do not have any questions or problems.
Basically what we will do is modify the boot of the original ROM of Zenfone 3 MAX through the Magisk and then install this boot by ADB.
ROOT on Zenfone 3 MAX ZC520TL with Magisk
Download the ROM you are using, you can download the ROM from the Asus website, the server is very fast and the ROM is downloaded as well. To find out which ROM you should download, on your Zenfone 3 MAX, go to Settings> About> Software Information . I have ROM TW_14.12.1707.48_20170725;
ROM: https://www.asus.com/us/Phone/ZenFone-3-Max-ZC520TL/HelpDesk_Download/
Download ADB Shell, this package is the basics to be able to do the installation;
Download ADB Shell / Torrent 27Mb
Download Magisk Manager, and install it on your Zenfone 3 MAX;
Download Magisk Manager
In this part of the tutorial, the download of the ROM you downloaded should be over. Go to where you saved the ROM files and extract them. After extracting the files, you will see the file "boot.img", copy it to your mobile;
In Zenfone 3 MAX, open Magisk and select Install
In the next menu, Install again;
In this menu, select Patch Boot Image File;
Navigate and select the ROM boot you've placed on your phone;
Wait for the process to finish;
Magisk has created a file called "patch_boot.img" and it is located inside the Magisk folder in the root of your device. Take this file and put it in the folder of the Root Kit Zenfone 3 that you downloaded up there in step 3 (ADB Shell) - We will use this file and install it by ADB Shell, releasing ROOT in the device;
Still in Zenfone 3, turn on USB debugging to do so enable developer mode.
Go to Settings> About> and click Version Number several times;
Will enable developer mode, go back to Settings and go to Developer Options;
Go to Superuser Access and select Applications and ADB;
Go to the computer, in the folder you extracted the Root Kit (ADB Shell) and hold Shift and right-click anywhere on the screen and select Open Command Window here;
This command will make the Zenfone 3 MAX restart in FastBoot mode. If it gives a necessary authorization notice, go to Zenfone 3 MAX and give the debug permission;
Now, enter the command:
Code:
adb reboot-bootloader
Now this:
Code:
fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img
This command will install the boot customized by Magisk
The process is very fast, finished, type the command
Code:
fastboot reboot
To restart the Zenfone 3 MAX;
Open the Magisk and see the magic happening! You have ROOT on Zenfone 3 MAX ZC520TL with Android 7.0.
With Magisk installed, you have numerous advantages that SuperSu can not offer, such as being able to install Modules. Check out our article with The Top 10 Modules for Magisk .
Did it work out for you? Do you have any tips or questions? Leave it in the comments.

Hello. Is adb the same command as the adb when you installed Android Studio? Also, which one is the ROM version number?

But I'd like to ask if it's possible to edit it, so it can be adapted to a linux system too (or may be You'd like to link me it).
Thanks anyway.

Hey there,
I just received a H60-L02 shipped from Mainland China. Being on OS X, I had no trouble installing adb and unlocking the boot loader.
There is something I don't understand though : to gain root access on my phone, I need to install a modified ROM of Huawei's android upper layer ? Why is that so ? Do I need to find a ClockWordMod H60-L02 EMUI 3.0 Rom to root my H6 ?

Thanks, but I can't do that, insofar as I can't run .exe on OS X. Also, I'm trying to understand the basic concepts of rooting on android, in order not to **** things up by doing things I would do on other linux distribs. From what I get, rooting is installing a modified ROM in which everyone is a superuser ?

rooting is getting superuser access to any rom, if you take a look at the batch file, there is a link where you can download twrp, put it in the same directory where fastboot and adb files are
Code:
adb kill-server
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot devices
fastboot flash recovery TWRP_2.8.0.1_h60.img
fastboot reboot
adb wait-for-device
adb reboot recovery
fastboot devices
Ok it works. From what I get, twrp is a manager that enables you, once the boot loader is unlocked, to flash whatever you want on your android system. So you flash SuperSu, and it is done.
Thanks a lot for your help and explanations !:good::good::good:

Nope. You can make a back up with SpFlashTool, root is not required. Look at the forum how to use the function "Read Back" of SpFlashTool.

Root or custom recovery is currently unavailable for this ROM.
You can install this one - Acer_AV0L0_T04_1.001.00_EMEA_GEN2_(rooted), it's already rooted, you just have to install SuperSu from Play Store. Also there is a custom recovery for this ROM, look here. Guide to install it is here.
You can also install this ROM, but with this one you can't use 4g in Europe.
Thanks
Excellent!
Thank you a lot!
Question
Hello,
through your useful tips, I made a backup of my NVRAM.
Now I plan to install the ROM lollipop already rooted.
But during the procedure, I had a doubt that I would like to clarify before proceeding.
I have read that to install this kind of ROM, the bootloader has to be unlocked.
Please, can I ask if that is correct? Do I have really to unlock the bootloader before to flash the ROM?
If I have to unlock the bootloader, can you post a link with a valid guide, please?
In the advanced options of my device there is a button who says: ¨allow the OEM unlocking¨. Do I have perhaps to activate this option?
I think that this is the last information I need before to flash
I thank you in advance and I wish you a nice evening.
Greetings

Well, sincerely i don't know if bootloader unlocking is required for successful flashing, because I unlocked my device the fist day I bought it. So, when I decided to flash another ROM, my bootloader was already unlocked. But I think it's not obligatory.
Anyway, OEM unlocking is not complicated, so you can do it to be sure.
Attention! The OEM unlocking will erase your user data!
Firstly, allow USB debugging and OEM unlocking in the advanced options on your device.
Then, you have to install all the drivers. Please read with attention this manual.
(You can also read this thread)
Now unpack View attachment adb.rar to the root of drive C.
Connect your device to PC with the USB cable and confirm USB debugging.
Launch the windows command line (cmd) as administrator and type the following commands:
1) Go to the folder with adb:
Code:
cd C:\adb
2) Check if adb recognizes your device:
Code:
adb devices
If it recognize your device you will see your serial number. For example:
Code:
List of devices attached
TWGMIJGMFMDE65LR device
If the list of attached devices is empty, it means the drivers are installed incorrectly.
3) Reboot your device to the bootloader mode:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
Now you will see on your phone the black screen with "FASTBOOT mode" at the bottom.
4) Check if fastboot recognizes your device:
Code:
fastboot devices
If it recognize your device you will see your serial number.
5) Unlock the bootloader:
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
Confirm the unlocking on your device using the volume up key.
6) Reboot your phone to the normal mode:
Code:
fastboot reboot
Done!
P.S. Sorry for my english.
Very good!
Easy and fast procedure.
To be sure, I will unlock the bootloader too.
No problem, also my english is not the top .
Thank you a lot for helping me.
Greetings!

sorry for english
Root is good! ... This ACER Z630s is a novum, - very special phone, - that will not come back on the market in near future, because of these five things:
1.) battery = big/removable, 2.) real dual-sim + SD, 3.) 3/32 GB, 4.) LTE/4G on both SIM, 5.) low price (new between 180 € and 300 €)!
For me, all the other missing features (Glossnast/Galileo, NFC, display-resolution (ppi), water-resistance, etc.) are not important (but yes, I miss them), because no other smartphone has all 5 points from above gathered in one phone! ... So why is the community only interested to develop TWRP or Lineage for more popular phones, though this very interesting one has still no root, since it was released in September 2015? - I would give my Note 4 for this phone - so good is it!

There are many k8/k10 models and each models have many different firmware which requires unique TWRPs.
It's impossible to make only one TWRP working for all models however this tool can help you easily port your own TWRP (from 3.0.2 to 3.1.1, whichever you prefer).
This srcipt is only for MTK devices. Qualcomm support can be added once anyone having a qualcomm device will be able to boot into anything from fastboot.
(at the moment no one can "fastboot boot any.img" on a qualcomm device)
TWRP 3.0.2:
Just download this file: http://viid.me/qopRut)
(for 32bit windows download this: http://viid.me/qopRlZ)
TWRP 3.1.0:
http://viid.me/qRlxPx (64bit windows)
TWRP 3.1.1:
http://destyy.com/qFank3 (64bit windows)
http://corneey.com/q4KEZt (32bit windows)
Uncompress it, put your stock recovery image (usually it's "recovery_190464.bin") into the uncompressed folder ("twrp_port" or "twrp_port_x86" in case of 32bit version) and run "twrp_port.bat"
You will get your ported TWRP ("yourTWRP.img") for your device in that folder and you can use it to root your phone (https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-k10/how-to/friendly-root-method-lg-k8-k10-t3531223).
---------------------------------------
How to get your stock recovery image:
Fisrt you need the kdz firmware of your device:
1. method:
- reboot your phone into download mode (http://www.hardreset.info/devices/lg/lg-k10/download-mode/)
- start LG Bridge, go to software update and chose update error recovery (right bottom corner).
- from here follow kappu's guide to get your .kdz file: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-k10/how-to/guide-downloading-kdz-lg-bridge-t3504497
- you can let lg bridge finish the flashing process, no data will be lost.
2. method:
- download firmware for your device:
k10: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-k10/development/stock-versions-model-lg-k10-t3457319
k8: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-k10/development/lg-k8-k350nds-stock-kdz-firmware-t3456467
- now you have your kdz however you better do the next step if you are not sure thats the exact firmware your device has
- use lg up (https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-k10/how-to/flashing-firmware-using-lg-t3517839) to flash that firmware on your device (just to make sure you are really using that particular firmware)
- all data will be lost
Now you have your kdz, lets extract the recovery image:
- download lg firmware extractor: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2600575
- upack it somewhere and put the kdz file into that folder
- run "WindowsLGFirmwareExtract.exe"
- open your kdz file (first open button from above)
- tick the first entry under file name (the .dz file) and click on "Extract KDZ"
- you will get that .dz file extracted in your LGFirmwareExtract folder
- close LG Firmware extractor and open it again
- now open .dz file (second open button from above)
- find your stock recovery image under file name (usually it's "recovery_190464.bin"), tick that entry and click on "Extract DZ"
- your stock recovery image will be extracted in the LGFirmwareExtract folder.
Now you just copy this "recovery_190464.bin" (or whatever it's name is - just make sure it's a .bin file) into the "twrp_port" folder and run "twrp_port.bat"
Do not flash it on your device!
No TWRP's can be flashed for good on these LGs... yet...
Only use "fastboot boot yourTWRP.img"
If you succesfully ported and tested your TWRP, please upload and share it with us with the proper description of your model and firmware version!

He meant Qualcomm.
Gott any method on how to flash it permanently and stop the system on overwriting the recovery. It seems that twrp is one of the important thing needed.

I`m afraid no. There is no way to flash it. Why is this important anyways?

For convenience I guess?? It's hard to make changes with K10 without recovery and PC :c
Anyway any new project with MTK?

Well... i think usually you have a PC nearby when you test something new on your phone...
However with the new security patch it's actually impossible to root or flash anything modded but using the new 3.1.0 twrp you can delete the stock apps which is the most imprortant aim of rooting our device (i guess). So no more new project on my side...

One more thing does the K10 only have fastboot mode and no recovery mode even a stock recovery?

Anyone have luck rooting or getting twrp on this phone?
Hi
Can anyone make me a SS on the Settings menu especially targeting the factory reset area?
I want to reset the phone via OTG adapter using a keyboard.
Thank you!
After I will bring my phone to life I will show you how to get root on this device

Hello
This is the post which helped me to get root access on this device.
I cannot post an url, so search this on Google : [ROOT] Lenovo K5 Pro L38041
And the Chinese ROM on Google : lenovo s5 pro firmware and the third searched link
Before get into the process of rooting, if you have a global rom, make a copy of it...
There is no global rom which you can download, so, I installed the chinese one, but it's ok, as soon as you get root you can easily delete all the bloatware. But, if somebody has the global rom, I kindly please to make a copy and share with us .

Sounds good.. but without global stock firmware I won't try it. What is the difference between chinese and global stock?
Hello. Is there a chance to do root and recovery in this phone?

How did you go about installing the chinese rom? I accidentally flashed the chinese boot.img to mine, would like to install the rest of the chinese rom to fix it. Thanks
No luck on finding global firmware, or finding TWRP for this phone, but here's a quick guide I assembled for rooting the ZUI firmware:
Firmware Links:
https://yadi.sk/d/jvDlauax6DjGEQ/Firmware Lenovo S5 Pro L58041
Important: Make sure to install the Qualcomm drivers
bootloader unlock from:
https://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=929173
To unlock bootloader:
"On the site https://www.zui.com/iunlock in the first field enter IMEI1.
In the second field, enter serial number from fastboot (not the one in the settings), then enter mail and verification code.
Tick the checkbox, the sn.img file will be sent by email
In the developer’s menu, enable boot loader unlock and enable USB debugging
Put the sn.img file into the folder with ADB.exe, Start cmd. prompt, enter the commands:"
1. adb reboot bootloader
2. fastboot flash unlock sn.img
3. fastboot oem unlock-go
Rooting guide:
Copy boot.img from firmware archive to phone, use Magisk Manager to patch the file. Copy patched_boot.img into folder with adb.exe
To flash your patched img:
1. adb reboot bootloader
2. fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img
3. fastboot reboot
Factory Reset:
https://www.stupdroid.com/2019/02/Lenovo-S5-Pro-rom-download.html
Whats working:
Magisk
Xposed
BusyBox
etc.
Credits: Thanks to suninterbru for the bootloader unlock link.
Thanks to 4pda members for firmware links etc
I bought this phone in aliexpress and i'm pretty satisfied so far. Except by the fact that it's a totally obscure phone. You can't even find cases for it.
Anyway, the real problem is the lack of root methods. I tried all the root apks out there without success, and there is no known way to unlock the boot loader.
So, as a last effort, i'm trying to find someone that maybe managed to root this phone and could share the knowlege with us. Or at least find some other Gome U7 owners to share this frustation.
Thank you!

From the Aliexpress listing I found, this is MTK6757CD Android 7.1 Nougat. It shouldn't be so difficult to root.
Have you been able to backup / dump the firmware?
Yes, thats the model!.
About the backup, i don't tried it yet, but i supose i can via ADB comands.
The problem is that none of the root apks work, and i can't try to install a root script via the default recovery.
Holy fuc...king cow! I did it!
The dificulty of finding the files for this phone made this task much dificult than it shoul be, but anyway, for the possible people that come accros this thread, that's how i did it:
download the mtk drivers here: http://www.mediafire.com/file/jbxsq68g8dd4gk6/MTK_USB_All_v1.0.8.zip
download the stock rom here: https://cloud.mail.ru/public/8hMx/N7fqf8X62
Put the stock rom's boot.img on your phone;
Install the magisk apk, click install, and then use the patch boot.img function;
Select the boot.img from the stock rom;
After the patch, replace the patched version with the original version on the rom folder on your PC;
Use the SP flash tool to flash it.
And that's it!
I can't believe it took me four days to figure this out hahaha
Anyway, i hope it helps someone. Have a great day.
Edit: unfortunately the bootloader is still locked, so i can't flash magisk modules. Is there a way to use root privelege to unlock it?
@SkynyrdZ The Link you provided for the stock ROM is for USB drivers.
Possible to link to a western Gome U7 stock rom with playstore on?
Thank you

@SkynyrdZ
Is that the only stock ROM out there?
I know it's a chinese phone but it originally had western stock ROM when arrived - As in playstore was available on it. Chinese version is very stubborn in trying to install western apps - Playstore for one does not open when you install via alt options.

I didn't really flash it, i just used the bootloader file on it for the root process. My device came with the stock android rom, with gapps pre-installed.
But as far as i know, you can have play store on any android. Just make sure you install google play services alongside.

I didn't try it because it seens fake to me. Also, the bootloader on this phone is locked, so fastboot comands didn't work when i tried. The only way i could flash anything was with SPtool.
But there's a group out there called twrp builder that compiles the twrp recovery to a lot of devices. I'm trying to put the gome u7 on their queue, but right now, they are busy with a lot of builds.
TWRP recovery for root with magisk from 4PDA Forum.
and firmware. Gome_2017M27A_MT6757_V01 (U7_GM_00_V1.0)
And I found root guide from GOME U Series Forum. (Chinese) It is same as this website.
(I am waiting my U7 delivery too.)

As you said the bootloader can not unlock why it need TWRP for?
The phone bootloader can lock and unlock as will.
Phone in fastboot mode: ADB command "fastboot oem unlock" then Push Vol+ on the phone to confirm unlock.
But I got the boot loop to TWRP every reboot after following steps to root the phone.
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (twrp down load at https://unofficialtwrp.com/gome-u7-twrp-3-2-root/)
Boot to recovery ( this Twrp won't save the language which selected)
Format Data
Reboot to recovery again.
Install magisk
install No verity opt encrypt.zip.
wipe Caches/Davik...
reboot to system but it boot loop to recovery (twrp).
I have to reinstall original recovery.img and lock bootloader in order for my phone to boot normal again. After the phone boot up , install magisk.apk manager to get root.
Try to flash patched boot & twrp recovery image inside rar file with SP flash tool v5.1844.00.00 use their scatter file.
Wow, my device just could'nt comunicate with the adb via fastboot. I selcted the OEM unlock on the phone and inatalled the mtk drivers.
What i did wrong?
Also, you said that you had to install the stock recovery to the phone boot again, so you dont have twrp on the phone?

Thanks. It work great. It is so simple to make the phone root with TWRP. After flashing patched boot & twrp recovery image inside rar file then go to Recover mode, install Magisk and no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0.
