Hi,
I have just unlocked my Meizu 16s Pro bootloader, then i installed TWRP and i can enter on it, but...if i connect my usb cable to the pc in order to transfer the mokee files to the TWRP...i cant, explorer cant write anything on the phone, can u help me please?

Thanks in advance.

EDIT: FIXED it, just using de filesystem manager from TWRP, format data first to ext2, and then format again to ext4, now is accesible with write permissions.

Hi again, im trying to install flyme stock rom from TWRP (the update.zip), but it not boot (stucks on animation booting), how i can do it?

I tried to back to stock recovery too, but i couldnt, i did fastboot oem lock, i locked the bootloader, but after that, if i reboot, the phone enter in a loop when power on, and only shows the Meizu logo and poweroff again (i cant enter in any recovery).

Im trying to use your guide about unbrick the phone, i need to download the 16s pro file from tyanyinetdisk but i cant because its in chinese. I downloaded the same flyme 7 version for this phone, but if i unzip it, it dont cointains the same files (for example prog_firehose) that you say in your tutorial.

Can u help me?
Thanks

well, I will try to download it and upload to MS onedrive tomorrow. Did you flash the stock recovery before relock? If yes, try perform a factory reset in recovery by click vol up for 5 times and then vol down for 5 times.
If not, try to unlock and reset.

Thanks for The response, actually i think that my phone is bricked, i finally installed twrp and mokee rom, now i need to back to stock, but i used fastboot oem lock, and now The phone not power on, only poweron and power off in loop very fast.

so i tried to unlock it again, i did it, but now i cant flash twrp, it say that is flashed but The phone only enter in bootloader Mode directly. (i tried to enter in twrp with buttons, with fastboot commands.. and no way).

so, actually my state is, phone with bootloader unlocked but i cant boot in twrp and if i try The unbrick method, with QFIL, im getting sahara error all the time.

i dont have The stock recovery, where i can find it for meizu 16s pro?

i can try to flash it from fastboot

Thanks in advance

AS you have unlocked it again, try to reset it from fastboot mode using the command

fastboot -w
and try to install TWRP and boot it

I have uploaded the QFIL firmware to MS Onedrive. see

Try to reboot into bootloader and then use qfil again. If it still fails, try with another computer.
Did you use the firmware from onedrive?
BTW, can you post some pictures or logs?

It seem that sahara read 0 bytes from your device, then it fails.
I usually suggest rebooting device into bootloader, and then reboot to EDL and try to download again. But you say this doesn't work. Then can you try to download on another computer? If it still fails, I have no idea then.

I don't own this phone, but seeing you try your best to help others has give me a sense of gratefulness.
thank so much for your contribution.

Hi, I have meizu 16th that can be use as Guest mode only, stuck in lost mode, cannot power off, cannot set up anything, cannot set up password and cannot factory reset. Does this BL unlock resolve this and I can use the meizu 16th normally? thanks.

I don't know. You can try at your own risk.

Thanks for your response, though I can use this phone to take some photos, browse the web, the problem is I can't install applications to it. Will try yhis one after setting up may paypal, coz that's the only option I know to donate to get the code.

@sukanka or anyone else unlocked the Boot Loader and installed the GSI for Android 10 on Meizu 16th global (M882H)? Some instructions/guidance on this if you have been successful would be super cool :)
