They never said anything about an unbrick tool. They said they would release the stock image, which they did.

They said we won't let be brick. This was means of their photo. You can check again here. https://community.zteusa.com/community/blogging/blog/2016/10/20/coming-soon-to-a-device-near-you And they shared just stock Rom which could install stock recovery. So how can I recover from brick if I can't reboot on stock recovery?
It is old version of stock Rom and you can't upload Rom. Is it a joke?

still better than nothing. 99% of the time you'll be able to boot into recovery, stock or TWRP. And you can also flash it in TWRP if you remove the getprop and assertprop lines in the updater-script. If you ever hard brick your phone and can't boot into recovery, just use tenfar's tool.
Voted! Let us know if anything actually happens with this!

Problem is not that given stock rom. the problem is they didn't do that what they promised. And I'm not happy with that. Don't be fan boy.
I'm waiting something about software from DrakenFX and Unjustified Dev. I believe that they will make this phone better.
Whatever. this is not topic. I'll vote.
Edit: i've checked polls option. Do want to choose "Cleaner user interface and skin"? If it is yes please tell us that you were joking. There is one option to choose which "Greater dev support for custom ROMs". If there are too many roms all other options will be already.

Listen buddy I did not create this poll. In case you can't read, the poll was made by an official ZTE mod and all i asked of you to do was vote so that they would be able to pitch it to R&D so we would have the possibility of getting near stock android for nougat. I have no idea what you mean when you ask if I was joking. Joking about what? I didn't ask you to "choose" the cleaner ui option, just to vote. I also didn't ask you to come here and start whining. Quit barking at me or I will ask for this thread to be locked.
Have a good day
P.S. I didn't mean to sound so harsh I just have a very short temper for these kind of things lol

Well for me most important is to have good custom ROM support... Then we're free to develop whatever we want: from AOSP till MIUI, the whole free world of custom dev... Then wouldn't need to care about stock anymore!
But hey, let's vote for whatever we see and take the 500 votes limit
About stock roms: I bought a lower spec Zte phone (Blade V770) earlier this year that has pure stock Android and is flawless. It runs stock Marshmallow, has Dolby audio and also amazing battery life. It was a 200 euros phone so there shouldn't be any problems for them to give us stock Android.

Awesome someone on the community just told me. Hopefully this gets as a lot more votes. As of now we still need 200 more!
I hope the frontpage thingy works. We need to spread the word more. Get 500 votes together, I voted already.
Please spread the word.
Voted. Spread the news every one, saw this on Reddit already. Proud to see this device finally taking off, I couldn't pass up on it.
There is one simple solution for zte. axon 7 with stock Android on screen buttons better camera maybe few tweaks from them nothing major.

so how did you make the nexus rom for it?
The issue is that I do not own the phone, but I am looking at porting CM to MTK6589.
MIUI porting is a bit different, it would not involve kernel compiling per se I believe (CM either, but I would like to).
To give it a go, I would need info from here:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Doc:_porting_intro
So your ROM version, partition info etc.
When I manage to port to a device I own, I can give it a go.

It's not really Nexus ROM, it's just stock ROM modified to look like stock Android.

i compiled my first recovery based on cm 10.1 for Thl W8.
I have no easy way to push the image to the phone to test.
If it works, I can start to create a recovery for this phone based on sources.
I would need that info I requested.
Are you able to post the build.prop file and the partition dump?
Look at the page with instructions I posted earlier.
Meantime I look for an easy way to flash that recovery, somehow sp flashtool does not read the scatter file created by mtkdroidtools .
cheers
managed to flash it, but it does not work , just a black screen .
Harder than it looks.
Can't promise anything, but I'll post if I get further.
Compiling on an old C2D now, so it takes time .

So, like I requested before, please :
- post your build.prop file
- post identification stuff of the device, like screen resolution, memory and recovery.fstab (or the recovery image)
- in general take a look at the link I posted before and read it, so you know what info is needed :
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Doc:_porting_intro
The reason I ask is because there are at leat 2 different versions, 1 had 960x480 screen and 1/4gb ram/rom, the other 1280x720 and 2/8.
They obviously at least have different partitions and displays and perhaps even other different hardware.
You can also post a full working ROM on dropbox or something.
thanks
P.S. for the needed tools, see here:

This is a CWM 6.0.3.3 which works on my device.
Use SP Flash Tools 3.13 something to flash.
My scatter file is attached, please compare it with yours.
Needless to say perhaps, but still: this is on your own risk.
You may damage your device if you do not know what you are doing.
Bricking it is not my fault!
So think before you act.
If you try: please give feedback if it works.
If does it is the same device: N9389 5.3", 960x480 (qHD) , 1 gb ram, 4 gb rom.
Device identifier: v89_gq2002s

Hi,
Well I am partly motivated by your offer, but I enjoy Android and Linux hacking.
Let's hope those attempts will lead to something.
How about LewaOS? There are good porting guides for that.
I will try to look for MIUI or CM in the weekend.
Initial CM would miss dual sim support.
Maybe MIUI is easier, because some work has been done.
Well, I'll see.
Don't overestimate the complexity, if you have CM 6 and made it yourself, porting a rom is doable I suppose ?
cheers
Did you guys notice that the LG L7II and the Huawei Y300 has the same specs
Wow, amazing! On my way to try out some huawei roms in hope of getting it to work.
It IS the same chipset afterall...
Nice find. Did you manage to find any ROMs? All I found were 4.1.x ROMs, which basically returns us to square 1...
Awesome, but this is not even nearly any close to development. Put this thread ro general.
Also installing a huawei rom just like this is a nice way to brick your phone...

Che, tried once to port, but instead of working phone, I got a bricked one.
They are pretty different inside, because all the circuitry is different, only the chipset is the same.

Hah, I tried to flash it but CWM didn't let me. It just throws bunch of text at you and aborts the installation.
Tried to port with the classic port rom base rom method but with no success.

Lol! I think just about any other xda forum wouldve come to the conclusion that this one's a dud and moved on by now (probably to a different custom rom).

Its not a put down because i keep coming back to see eventhough i know if it worked we wouldve been aware probably on day one...certainly by day 7.

hello guys still do not get anything, I'm also looking for roms or some development for this phone would like a roms cleaner something more to the pure android I have if you want can leave contact to join the owners of this phone to see if we can get some development and we help each other say? :good:
This is a low end, low interest phone (and an oldish one too) so I think the search for a custom ROM is vane.
ROM are developed by people owning that phone. No dev owns one of this, so ther'll be no ROM.
I think the best we can do now is to debloat it in order to lighten the OS and make it work more efficiently.
I will go this path.

to immediately go to topic here is the link of the Recovery: https://mega.nz/#!5gtmhCjQ!_utHIgyVgHvLW2qPoESeC_XeAlyBAD1sixQxYzIAZPc
my device is broken because bad battery so i'm not using it anymore, tho the recovery is 100% usable
finally if you please just don't contact me on twitter for the recovery anymore because there is a high chance that i'm not going to respond..
that's it enjoy the recovery !!!
an XDA Thank is highly appreciated!
EDIT: Looking back at the answers
There is NOT any custom ROMS for that particular device so please don't waste your time on looking for one and only debloat it
right now there is a TWRP for this device to use so that's that
thank you. yeah, i received the file by conctanting him on twitter because it was not here before )
