Download the tools:

Download Magisk, Magisk Manager and Open GApps (ARM64, Android 8.1, I got an error when trying to flash the full package so get the stock one), install Magisk Manager and copy everything else on your phone.

Enable "OEM unlocking" and "USB debugging", connect the phone to your PC and run glass.bat, you should see a menu.
First press 1 to install the drivers, then press 2. The phone will reboot in fastboot mode and flash the recovery.
Now on your phone select "Reboot into recovery mode" with the volume buttons and press the power button to confirm.
TWRP should boot, from here you can flash Magisk and GApps.

If pressing 2 doesn't work try to unplug your phone, boot it in fastboot mode by pressing volume down while it turns on, connect it again and press 3 on the menu.

Another guide I found useful before this post:
https://www.chinahandys.net/en/nubia-z18-mini-install-google-playstore-not-reliable/
Nubia Z18 mini (NX611J) would deserve its own threat. The bootlocker is not locked (unlike many other Asian brands), and there is working TWRP 3.2.1 for it.
Updates are available:

It is a brilliant phone, with awesome camera. Installing google playstore, root are all easy and everything works well.

Ok so I found the Problem... I just had to reinstall the drivers from scratch one more time and then use the ./fastboot.exe from your download or this: https://www.androidbrick.com/download/nubia-z18-mini-nx611j-twrp-root/ and it finally worked

There's no password, maybe it's asking you for the Mega encryption key, but it's already in the URL, try to copy and paste it in the browser.

Official rom Z18 mini

Hi!

Can you confirm that these official roms from china have English language and work in Europe? Will Snapchat and so on work on this rom? I got a phone with preinstalled Gapps and Snapchat do not work and the rom is a bit slow. Maybe these updatet roms will work better? It is a nice phone but the firmware does a bad job.

 

[sudeep_hm]

Please any one can confirm is dual 4G works simultaneously? Please??

V 2.33 ROM, it can flashed with twrp and include English.
