Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to update my bootstack before flashing?
Yes, if you don't come from B32 stock it's necessary to update your boostack and modem. That files
can be found under the download section.

Does this rom support modifications?
No, because I don't know how every modification out there exact works which can cause
problems with debuging and overall stability.

Does this rom support custom kernels?
No, because this falls under the same section as modifications, but every kernel that is based
on the source of the stock kernel of this rom, should work fine.

Will you add feature or app XYZ?
No, our team decides democratically and we only want unique or necessary features
without overloading the rom. Also should the rom work the same no matter which device
it's used on.

Why isn't everything working flawlessly?
Remember, this is a Beta build for testing purposes. Also are this build based on old
N proprietary blobs and since ZTE didn't release any new for now it's impossible to fix
certain issues.

When will a new build drop?
When I think it's alright. I don't want to release untested work.

The flash fails. It says that my device isn't an Axon 7, it shows the device name as "."

Flash universal bootloader

Cablespider · Dec 31, 2017

I installed it as soon as it hit AFH. Flashed bootloader and modem. No problems with install other than a corrupt sd notice. Working on that. Data/Wifi/Bluetooth operational. The camera doesn't fc but is very dark and takes dark images. Known issue, so let's move on. Substratum works. Mono looks sweet on 8.1. The big cluster doesn't seem to be downclocking on Interactive. Switching to Conservative solves that. Too early to tell much else. Gratz on a solid first release!

Edit: I backed up my SD card, formatted it and copied everything back. It's working fine. I've had this problem with a few other Oreo builds. Not sure why Oreo sees it as corrupted initially.

I tried flashing the universal bootloader provided in the OP. It still shows the same error.

Just tried that one as well, no difference.

I'm flashing that first, then the A2017U B32 modem provided in the OP, and then flashing the ROM. It shows error 7, and it says that my device name isn't correct.

No mine sis the same to. Left my device name as blank lol. Had to manually remove the trust zone. Try redownloading it or go in and change it to blank like i did

I honestly don't think so. I just re-downloaded everything, flashed everything and got the exact same error. What can I do?

How can I do that? I've tried doing it, but I get an error saying the ZIP file is in an incorrect format.

I'm sorry for asking so much, I'm a complete noob and I can't find information on this

can you confirm, what version of TWRP are you using? Try using the latest. That fixed my problem. Still had the N1 version installed

I'm using version 3.1.1-0. I just tried removing the assert and got error 6 while trying to flash.

Flash the latest TWRP 3.2.1-0 using TWRP and then flash the unmodified zips

3.1.1-0 is janky. I had problems with Oreo and that version. 3.2.1-0 seems solid.

Gases · Dec 31, 2017

Would you look at that... Updating TWRP solved it! Thanks, guys! @Cablespider @reV17

Can I root this ROM? Or is Magisk incompatible with Oreo?

Cablespider · Dec 31, 2017

Magisk 15.1 is running fine.
