It is the same with 16th, and it does not work for me also. I tried without any luck on 16th, 17 and 18X. Only in 18X I was able to get a working root, but there's no way back. Even a full reset by reflashing stock did do the job unrooting the phone. So carefully try at your own risk and be warned, this is not a trivial hack like on a Samsung Galaxy S4... 😉
i get it rooted, im not going back!!!! for what???? and i found root for a lot of other phones on baidu!!!!!

But this thread is primarly for the 16-series, isn't it? If you have a solution for unlocking these also, it'd be very kind to share...
They are all odm model. This method is supposed to work according to this forum. I have loved meizu their phones are different and they stand out from any other phone Yes they're operating systems are trash but that's where we come in.

Isn't there a website I got to go back and find it that you can send the d e v i f o image and or the FRP image? You can paste it on this website and somebody does it without paying anything if I find it again I'll post it here I promise

No website, you can try the instructions. I don't have an ODM device. (And my OEM device got broken last year.) So my information is outdated. (I haven't pay attention to this field for about two or three years. You'd better on your own now, since messages from my side may be misleading.
Good luck.

Thank u!!! I went on to Baidu, and found their way of rooting any of the x series models for meizu. And they're saying either the devino. Img or frp. Img is what u have to mod. I'm. Going after the 18x myself. It says that the same method will work only for odm models. And their videos of people doing it on billibilli, I guess Oriental YouTube

    Update: DO NOT TRY TO PAY!!! THE GUIDE IS BADLY OUTDATED. JUST USE THE RESOURCES AND FREE METHODS.

    If you want to try the paid method, you should definitely get in touch with the seller first. I don't know whether the previous sellers are active or not.

    If you want to inform me of something important, please `@me`, (I missed many replies in the past years)

    There seems to exist a new method: It is said to work on Qualcomm devices.
    First, dump frp partion, then edit the value to 1 at 7fff0, finally, flash the modified frp image. then you can use fastboot command to unlock your phone.


    This new method shall work for for ODM devices like 16T, 16x, 16xs and Note9 and so on. see FRP Method.
    Below is the original post:
    The original post has been removed, since it's outdated and I almost finished the English version tutorial on Github.
    You can see it on github.
    BTW, it's really difficult to use XDA's text editor.:mad:

    You can download the TWRP of 16s here

    good night can someone tell me if the FRP method works in the global version 16xs? thanks
    You can try it yourself. I think it should work. I mentioned 16xs in the chinese version tutorial, but 16x in the English ver.?

    thank you sukanka!
    I want to try but I can't find the file
    prog_firehose_ddr_provision.elf
    in the global roms I get on the internet.Flyme 7.3.1.0G

    can you point one please?
    You have to use the firmware ( Rom for unbricking ) provided in the tutorial.

    sukanta, if i use the firmware in the tutorialI i will stay with the Chinese version...?
    is it possible to go back to the global (remaining unlocked) ?
    I downloaded your rom and with QFIL can't find it : /
    prog_firehose_ddr_provision.elf
    just prog_firehose_ddr.elf
    and prog_firehose_lite.elf
    am i doing something wrong?
    thanks in advance Sukanka!!!

    You can use prog_firehose_ddr.elf instead. When you unlock your phone, you will be able to flash TWRP, then flash the global ROM. you will stay unlocked until you lock it manually.

    BTW, for 16xs you should use the FRP method, which means you do not need the firmware? You can try it directly or flash to chinese version then try this method.
