my devices shows up as QUSB_BULK and miflash does not recognize it
As QUSB-BULK under Unknown Devices or under USB devices? If it is under Unknown you have to find the Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 driver; if it is under USB you have to uninstall it (delete driver software too) and it may install the Qualcomm driver

Thanks!

This method worked for me on a A2017G running stock B08 (Nougat) with locked bootloader.

Build number: ZTE A2017GV1.2.0B08

Only difference was between step 10 and 11. The device was encrypted so I ended up in the "enter password" dialog after flashing, reset and reboot from edl (because of verity break I guess).
I had to force the device manually into the bootloader (switch off and then hold Volume-Up and Power button to get into the recovery and then to the bootloader).

BTW: Flashed TWRP 3.2.1.0 directly after first boot with axon7tool and then installed Magisk 15.3. Magisk seems to work pretty well for me with this device, root/SU support is working and SafetyNet Patch is also fine.

Thanks for the guide and the links again!

Bye

Why everyone here do it this hard way ?
I done it yesterday with the regulär fastboot commands and it works pretty good to inlock the bootloader. I'm in 2017G, but should works on all the other variants.

Hello Tunox!

What do you mean with regular fastboot commands?
You went into the bootloader, connected the phone via USB and used "fastboot unlock-oem" ?

Does your phone now show a text message while booting/starting saying that the bootloader is unlocked?

And which build number does your phone show?

Hey Martinius,

you're correct. Just enter the fastboot mode (trough the recovery Option maybe) and the open a cmd and look, if your device is in air ;) if yes, then you only need to type "fastboot unlock OEM bootloader" , wait and hit "des" in the phonescreen. Thats it.
