A clean more stock version of Android on the 5Z would make the phone near perfect.
Hopefully we'll be able to unlock the bootloader for the 5Z as well. Time will tell.

HI
Today i buy a Chine version of Redmi Note 5 and when i connect it to wireless it show Update to me, i try tree time to update but i encounter with:
"Couldn't verify the source of this update. Try downloading it again."
My MIUI version were MIUI Global9.5 | Stable 9.5.17.0(OEIMIFA)
i notice that my phone is unlocked !!!
So i think because of unlocked bootloader i cant update my phone, i switch to FASTBOOT mode and i use "fastboot oem lock" command to lock my device, BUT after restart my phone dont boot and show:
"This MIUI version can't be install on this device."
After this i download "whyred_images_V10.0.2.0.OEICNFH_20180918.0000.00_8.1_cn" china fastboot rom and i try to flash with "MiFlash2017-7-20-0" but it show this error: "Flash xbl error"
Now i really dont know what i must do
Even i cant turn off my phone.
Please help me
Flash with Mi Assistant or MIFlashPro or try to unlock bootloader again.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-5-pro/how-to/tut-flashing-official-recovery-rom-t3798165
If it booted after a successful unlock then all is good and install twrp. Read about ARB before flashing anything.

Wow we are on the same page here
If MIFlashPro or MIAssistant does not work then you can force testpoint and flash global rom with miflash.
Follow my tutorial:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-5-pro/how-to/fix-arb-bricked-device-qfil-t3841780
Replace program firehose and rawprogram0.xml with these files

http://www.mediafire.com/file/btd8ddid8dbn3tc/rawprogram0.xml/file
OR flash china rom via testpoint by replacing the elf file only. And wait for official bootloader unlocking permission.
If you can't unlock your device with Miunlock then it was probably flashed via testpoint by the seller.

3. My current status is: China pack phone, Locked bootloader, Global Developer version 8.11.1 , Now with testpoint which rom i must install to boot correct?
4. In testpoint or deep flash mode (edl mode), can we install any Rom or we must install same carrier Rom on phone?

1. Yes but there is no deep flash cable working yet. So disassembly is the last choice.
2. Yes try to wait for the battery to drain and flash. If it doesn't work then disconnect battery.
3. You can flash any china rom. But with the ARB4 status, you may try to flash global rom by replacing the rawprogram.xml file.

[GUIDE] [RAW Firmware] [RE-LOCK] Convert CN to->WW or WW to->CN Rom (20/12/2019)
Hey Guys,
After seeing a lot of users falling in trouble by flashing the 21 files to convert Chinese Tencent Games Rom to WW (International) Rom -
(It's actually by users fault for falling in trouble as many ignored or forgot the Bootloader unlock step)
I thought I'll attempt convert mine too, But as intended or done by the official Means.
What's Missing from Asus Web-page Firmware
So after a bit of reading into Asus and ROG History, and thanks to the guidance by yakapa40 posted over here, I have learned the following.
* On the Asus Webpage, The Firmware provided by Asus are only for Official OTA Updates.
* These firmware does not include a recovery partition which is mandatory for a clean flash.
* By forcefully flashing these firmware, You can boot the device - but you cannot change the recovery (Boot Image Fingerprint will always remain what was on the device)
* Negatives of this is that you cannot Re-Lock the bootloader, Causing SafetyNet to fail where GooglePay and certain banking apps will fail top open on your device.
Where Things Went Wrong
* Many users followed the 21 File Flash method to convert their Chinese Tencent Games Devices to WW (International) Firmware. This flashed the IMG files via Fastboot to the device, Partition by Partition
* Many Succeeded while a few got into bootloops - Majorly caused by not unlocking teh bootloader
* Asus Bootloader so far cannot be unlocked in Fastboot - You need to boot to Rom and use their official APK to unlock the bootloader
How to actually convert the CN Device to WW (International) Rom by clean official means
* So Asus has a different set of firmwares known as RAW Firmware which includes all partitions of the rom. These are not freely available, and only available in ASUS Service Centers.
* Flashing a Raw firmware completely overrites all partitions successfully converting the device to the edition of the Zip you obtained
* Currently I have only WW - 16.0622.1906.19_M3.13.33.20-1.1.93 Version which is the latest for WW at the time of typing this article.
Actual Guide
Remember, You're on your own from here. Follow the steps carefully, and patiently. If something breaks or blows up - You're on your own.
- This guide only applies to ASUS ROG II (SKU : ZS660KL)
* Ensure to log out from your Google Account Signed in on the device. If you forget this step, Later on, you'll be locked at first boot due to Google's FRP.
* Do not attempt this on x86/32bit operating systems. Some users have reported bricking issues due to RAW flasher not supporting 32bit Operating Systems.
* Download the WW (International ROM) file at the end of this post (This is if you're coming from CN Rom to International Rom)
* Extract all contents as is to your C: Drive
* (Refer to attached image for the file list)
* Connect the Phone to the PC in Fastboot Mode - Using the Black Type-C Port on the Side of the Device (Not the Charging port on the bottom)
- ROG 2 Fastboot Method
* Power off the device completely.
* Press and Hold Volume-Up Key
* Press the Power key for 2 seconds and release it while continuing to hold the Volume-Up Key
* You will be in a Menu with multiple options such as Recovery, Reboot.. This is the Fastboot Mode.
* After connecting via Fastboot Mode, Navigate to the Firmware extracted folder
* Double-Click and Run flashall_AFT.cmd - A Dos Command window will open and show some information
* Leave your PC for 5 - 10 Mins, Even if nothing moves in the command window - This is normal - It will not show any progress bar. It will just say completed after done, and the device will restart itself.
* After restarting, It is important to do a Factory Wipe. Come back to Fastboot Mode, Switch through volume keys and select Recovery Mode - Then Select Wipe/Data Factory Reset.
Already attempted the 21 File Method and now bricked?
* If you are currently bricked, You can use the above flash guide to recover from it
DOWNLOAD Firmware Files from Here
WW (International ROM)
Latest Version - WW_ZS660KL_16.0631.1910.64
Link 1 (MEGA)
CN (Chinese Tencent Games ROM) - Only for Users who are on WW Rom now and wants to go back to CN ROM
For converting from CN to WW - You do not need the below file. Just the WW file on top is enough.
Latest Version - CN_ZS660KL_16.0631.1910.5

Relocking Bootloader
* Thanks to our respondent pd0200426 We can now safely re-lock the bootloader.
* WARNING : This needs to be done "ONLY" right after a Stock Rom Raw flash. Attempting to lock at any other condition might brick your device.
How To:
* Turn off Device and Boot into Fastboot Mode
* From Windows CMD - Type
Code:
fastboot oem asus-csc_lk
* Reboot the Device.
* If it shows some error, Reboot to Fastboot, Then Recovery and Wipe/Factory Reset the Rom.
* Re-Locking Bootloader restores your Widevine DRM back to L1. (Screenshot Attached for reference)
Other Helpful Links / Guides
* Google ADB USB Drivers (Download from developer.android)
* Installing ADB and Fastboot Easily, The official Method - Article from Lifehacker
* Getting Root Access on the Device - Article from XDA
* Help XDA Member acervenky - To Test The first Custom Kernel
* Our own Reddit Community - r/ROGphone2/
What's Next
* We are not receving any OTA currently on the WW Rom as explained here. Help us find the missing link. [DONE - Thread UPDATED]
- Follow this link to change Device fingerprint from CN to WW
* We currently have only a WW Rom, I intend to find and share a CN Firmware as well so that if WW Users want to go back to CN, We can do that too. [Bought the Rom - Thanks to a Donator who shared the amount for the Rom]
* Relock the Bootloader - Since ASUS does not have a fastboot command to lock or relock, We need to find a method to cleanly lock it back. [DONE - Thread UPDATED]
Thank you and Good Luck!
Would you like to Help Me back?

* No Need to unlock Bootloader beforehand.
* As long as the bootloader is not unlocked, You will continue to receive FOTA on official non-rooted firmware.
* If FOTA is not possible, You can always manually update using the ASUS Webpage.
Thats realy great news for all ROG 2 user?
Great to share.

OTA Updates : Gotta wait till the next one to check. However, I Can assure you it works after relocking the bootloader.
Dual Band WiFi - It's a common misconception.
Dual Band WiFi (2.4GHz and 5GHz) Both are working fine.
I have attached a screenshot from my device running WW firmware for your reference.
What's not working is Dual WiFi (Storm Network Acceleration) - Which is a gaming feature under Armoury Crate. This function allows you to connect to two separate WiFi networks.
This feature is not visible in WW Firmware and even on the Chinese firmware this gets disabled after first reboot as it's still in beta. (Also attached a Screenshot)

Thanks JazonX.
Sorry , I'm thinking to get the Tencent version and i want to be sure.
Could you check if you have the B20 LTE band after the conversion?
I don't know if LTE bands are software related ir not :S

wait i'm confused, if you don't unlock the bootloader and flash the ww version, why would you need to relock the bootloader afterward?

Thats only if u did unlock ur boatloder before for rooting or trying the first 21 files methods
So... U need to relock ur boatloder to active OTA update...
But if ur phone is unteched CN firmware device ...its just of doing what is mentioned whitout doing anything to the boatloder ..
You should consider when publicly sharing raw files and flash instructions. Asus will have more stringent measures for later versions, many such cases!
Just wanted to clarify that if I do this, will this automatically factory reset my phone? If not, is it recommended to factory reset the phone?
Thanks
wow, great thanks!!!!! now just waiting for CN raw and my rog2 can ROCK!!!
thanks very much xda members too!!!
may i check with you guys what is the difference WW and CN rom ? i mean Since CN rom able to install Google Services.

Q2: Are there any risks after unlocking the bootloader?
Please be aware that realme cannot guarantee the full functionality, and will not be responsible, for any third-party unsigned custom ROM being flashed onto your device after the bootloader is unlocked. An unsigned third-party custom ROM may not have gone through the thorough tests that we run for each device and software version that we release.
A third-party custom ROM may not work properly on your device, and certain functions and services may cease to work. The performance and device data may also be affected, and may damage the device permanently. In the worst case, unlocking bootloader will cause physical injuries or material damage for ex. due to device overheating.
Q3: Will it affect future OTAs after unlocking?
Secure user data partition may also become inaccessible and you will not be able to get official software upgrades if you unlock the bootloader. Once re-locked the bootloader, users will receive official OTAs again.
Q4: Will it affect warranty?
Warranty will be fully applied to problems caused by realme 5 Pro unlocking or flashing a custom ROM.
Q5: How to flash back the official ROM after installing a custom ROM?
Users need to go to a service center to flash the device FREE of charge. We are developing a tool to flash stock ColorOS - will come in Q2 2019
Q6: When other devices can get bootloader unlock?
Realme 1 will get bootloader unlock in Feb. Other devices are being considered.
Q7: Where are the kernel sources?

This one is not MSM at all. Thank you, you provided me a link to the package that I built I have the same for COS A11,A12 and A13. Please note the topic is MSM. We are looking for MSM tool to recover from hard brick. As of now all available MSM packages for 9RT needs login and password of OnePlus representative in order to use.

Well, MSM available in OnePlus service centers. And they can flash your phone remotely via TeamViewer or other similar tool. Problem is if you bought 9RT from Aliexpress, support in any other country will direct you to chinese support. Communicating with chinese representatives is difficult because they use their own social networks and messengers.
Another option is paid service from third party. Just google it, can't write direct links to paid services here.

Hi. No I haven't been able to unbrick as basically no-one has a properly working msm download tool, I've tried to unbrick with two versions of tool ( used hxd editor to change hexes in tool ) and was the same outcome stopped flashing software at 3% due to not proper communication with server as opf file requires so. Have a look in https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/edl-flash-tool-leak.4494211/ here is a bit more information. Try pressing down the volume up, down and power buttons at the same time it should lead to bootloader.

Well. Wait until we all will have msm download tool or send phone to repair centre. Bootloader and recovery will not work until phone have flashed android.
