Messages about unstable operation of your smartphone with firmware should be left in the BUG REPORTS section of our forum!

The rapidly growing Chinese company Meizu regularly releases new models of its smartphones to the market. Buyers cannot always keep up with more advanced models and therefore strive to independently improve a previously purchased model. In particular, regular software updates on the phone will allow it to keep up with other models in terms of functionality. In cases where it is not possible to update applications, firmware will come to the rescue, which will allow you to update the entire system as a whole.

The firmware will also be useful in cases where the smartphone begins to reboot on its own, opens applications for a long time, and performs other incorrect actions. Such problems can be solved on any phone model; in particular, installing a new version of firmware on the Meizu M5 Note can not only restore the original functionality, but also add new functions. Despite the fact that the model was released a couple of years ago, it will not lose its relevance and productivity.

A fairly common question among owners of Meizu devices is how to update the firmware on Meizu M5 Note? The solution to this issue is quite simple, you need to follow these steps:

1. Download the firmware from the official website.
2. Check the file name and extension.
3. Launch your smartphone in Recovery mode.
4. Reboot Meizu smartphone.

Important note - before you start the update process, you must copy all the files that are installed on your phone. This precaution will help avoid the unpleasant situation of data loss. To copy you need to do the following:

1. On the menu "Settings", open section "Personal" and choose "Memory and backups."
2. Next go to "Other" and select the option "Copying and Restoring".
3. After this, you need to determine the storage where the data will be transferred. You can do this by clicking “Select storage location”. Now put a checkmark next to the type of data that needs to be copied. Having marked, you need to press “Start copying.”

Download the firmware from the official website

Next step after Reserve copy data from the phone is downloading a file with firmware. To do this, you need to go to the official Meizu website and go to the section "Flyme", in which you need to select the item "Download". In the window that opens, a list will appear with various phone models, among which you should find "M5 Note". A section will appear where you can download latest version. Or just follow the link. Sometimes the company offers to install a beta version on your device. And then we load the firmware into the root of the smartphone’s memory.

After downloading, it is important to check the file name and extension, which should be "update.zip". This is fundamentally important, because otherwise the installation will either not take place at all or will occur incorrectly. In addition to checking the name, you need to do the following before the update process:

1. It is important to ensure that the battery has maximum charge, as the process takes a long time.
2. It is worth keeping in mind that if the update fails during the process, you will need to restart the process. To do this you need to go to " Settings", choose "Telephone", go to "Memory" and press "Reset".

We start the smartphone in Recovery mode

Launching Recovery mode on your phone is an integral part of the installation process. To turn your smartphone into this mode, you need to: turn it off and press the key simultaneously "Inclusion" and volume up buttons. The buttons must be held until the message appears "System Upgrade", which is the settings menu. In this menu you need to click "Start" to start the firmware process.

The firmware installation process takes a certain amount of time, during which the phone can either reboot itself or require user permission. Therefore, it is important to be nearby at this moment and fulfill the phone’s requests. The installation process will end with a final reboot, after which the phone will start in its usual form and mode of operation. Before you start using the device, you will need to make standard settings and set the time, date and other options.

Using a computer

In addition to the above method, the update for Meizu M5 Note can be installed using a computer. This method useful when any errors occur when flashing firmware using your phone. It also requires some additional settings, in particular, you need to set up synchronization with your PC. To do this you need in the menu "Settings" find item "Specialist. possibilities" and choose "USB Debugging"

Download firmware

The file must be downloaded not to the phone, but to the PC, since the installer file will be launched from it. You can download the file from the official website, as described above in the “Download firmware from the official website” section. When installing custom firmware, you need to follow the prompts of the site from which the download will take place.

Connecting your phone in Recovery mode

As mentioned above, in order to start the firmware process, you need to put the phone in Recovery mode, which opens the update menu. To do this, you need to turn off the device and then simultaneously press and hold the top volume key and the power button. After holding the buttons, the message will appear "System Upgrade"– this is the update menu. It is in this menu that the update will be launched.

Checking the file name and extension

After the installer file has been downloaded, you need to check its name and extension, which should be "update.zip". It is important to say that the official firmware will have this name, but custom versions can have a completely different name and extension. You need to find out about this directly on the website from where the custom version is downloaded.

Firmware

After all the preparatory steps, you can begin the firmware process itself, for this you need:

1. Synchronize (connect) your smartphone and PC using a USB cable. The phone should already be in Recovery mode.
2. After connecting the phone to the PC, a folder will open on the computer "Recovery", into which you need to transfer the installer file with the name "update.zip".
3. After copying the file, you need to click on "Start" on your phone and the update process will begin.

The device can reboot several times, and after the firmware is completed, the device will turn on as usual.

Restoring Meizu M5 Note after unsuccessful firmware

There is a short introduction. While the bootloader is not unlocked on your meizu m3 mini, you will not be able to flash some regions using this instruction (for example EMMC_BOOT - where the preloader is located). So for severe cases, such as information corruption in EMMC_BOOT, etc., this instruction, at the moment, will not work. Corrected (patched) images will also not be sewn.

1. Download SP Flashtool with our scatter file.
2. Install drivers from the VCOM Drivers archive folder
3. Launch flash_tool.exe, the developer recommends launching it by clicking right click and selecting “Run as administrator”.
4. Select Download-Agent -> DA_PL.bin, Scatter-loading File -> MT6755_Android_scatter.txt (scatter3 on the screen, don’t pay attention, just an old screen).
We also click in the Location column opposite the partition that we want to flash (recovery in the example) and select the appropriate image. I don’t post the images themselves because everyone who was able to brick the body probably has them, and besides, it’s worth taking the images from the version of the firmware that is on the body.

5. I note that it is probably worth making a dump of what is currently stitched on the body. Backup has never harmed anyone
Lines have been added here that almost completely cover the flash, for example EMMC_USER is backed up to the cache section.
If someone wants to backup a specific section, add a line with the Add button, double-click on the added line, select where and with what name we will save the backup, then in the newly opened window, select the region from which we want to backup, from which address to start and how much byte read. This information can be viewed in the scatter file (fields region, linear_start_addr, partition_size)
– Next, click the Read Back button. The flash drive enters the device standby state.
– Take the switched off phone, hold down the Vol+ button (this is mandatory) and connect it to USB port computer. The flash drive will download DA to the body, after which information on our chip will appear under the picture of the black smart phone.
If this does not happen, but error information is displayed, re-read what was written above again, you definitely did something wrong as described here.
6. The backup is done, it’s time to sew. We go back to the Download tab and here we do all the same manipulations as when creating a backup, namely:
– click the Download button;
– take the switched off phone, hold down the Vol+ button (this is mandatory) and connect it to the USB port of the computer.
FlashTool will start the firmware and when it is finished you will see this notification
