apparently, I didn't do anything wrong. tried to flash again and again, suddenly it booted back to stock.

What am I missing here, your description says x522, even the filenames you list and the video say x526...

I installed the rom 7-8 times but phone didnt booted. What should i do now?

 

[salsa77]

Is this for rom mtk or not snapdragon?

When you flash stock rom via twrp successfully then before reboot flash andromax kernel for le2 after flash kernel then reboot system now this time your phone starts eui rom but remember first boot take some time maybe 2-5 minutes.

Hi i also suffered from this problem very long time.
But phone stuck on Leeco boot screen
I accidentally found custom recovery "Red Wolf"
which supports EUI ROMs
which was mentioned in features as "Automatic EUi boot image patching"
Recovery X52X V3.1-017
You can download it from my Google drive also.


Steps to Install ( For le S3 X522 US Version)
----------------------------------------------
1. delete first two lines in update-script
2. Install red wolf recovery
3. This can be installed from fastboot
Or you can install it directly from
twrp. (if you dont know ask here / google)
4. Go to recovery > swipe to allow modifications
5. wipe all partitions (excluding boot)
6. plug your le S3 X522 to computer
7. Go to my computer and copy
S2_X522-NA-OP-IFXNAOP5802012141S-5.8.020S.zip
to internal storage
8. you can copy supersu also at same time
and root if you want
9. Steps from 9-11 only needed if you have ever
encountered no os installed after flashing and reboot
10. press power button long and restart system
your phone wont have any os this time so your phone
will go to boot screen and show leeco logo
11. wait 30 seconds and press volume up(+) button and power key
you will go to recovery
12. Now you have followed step 6 so you will have
S2_X522-NA-OP-IFXNAOP5802012141S-5.8.020S.zip
in internal storage(additionally supersu file if you copied)
13. install S2_X522-NA-OP-IFXNAOP5802012141S-5.8.020S.zip
and ( additionally you can install supersu).
wait until all install finishes.
14. reboot it eui should appear within 5 minutes
enjoy

Finally when you rebooting if wolf recovery said os not installed
system will stuck on boot screen so
concentrate on steps 9-11
I have tested installation more than 10 times around 4 times i received os not installed message.
