Flashing instructions

by @anotherside551

Before starting, make sure you have everything ready:


Requirement:


πŸ’» PC / Laptop

Windows or Linux computer


πŸ”Œ USB Cable

Use the original cable that came with your phone


πŸ“± Your Phone

Make sure battery is at least 50% before starting


βš™οΈ Phone Drivers

Install them on your PC if you haven't already


⚠️ Important: This process will erase all data on your phone. Back up your photos, contacts, and important files first!


⚠️ MUST READ β€” Why You Get "Path Not Found" Errors / Script Won't Run

THIS IS THE #1 CAUSE of script failures: the folder you extract the ROM into must NOT contain spaces, symbols, or special characters β€” including every parent folder in the full path.

❌ BAD paths (will break the script):

C:\Users\My Name\Downloads\HyperOS 3.0.303.0\re

D:\ROM Tanzanite (final)\FlashScript


βœ… GOOD paths:

C:\flash\HyperOS3.0.303.0_tanzanite

C:\rom\tanzanite


Safe method: create a new folder directly on the root of a drive (e.g. C:\flash) and extract the ROM there. Don't extract to Desktop, Downloads, or any folder with spaces, parentheses, or accented characters (letters like Γ±, Γ© also count β€” a Windows username with accents is a common hidden cause of this exact error).


πŸš€ Flashing Steps


Step 1 β€” Extract the ROM File

After downloading the ROM file, right-click β†’ Extract using WinRAR or 7-Zip. Do not run it directly from inside the ZIP/RAR archive.


Step 2 β€” Boot into Bootloader Mode

Turn off your phone completely, then press and hold Volume Down + Power at the same time until the Fastboot/Bootloader screen appears.


Step 3 β€” Connect Your Phone to PC

Plug your phone into the computer using a USB cable. Make sure both ends are firmly connected.


Step 4 β€” Run the Flash Script with sudo

Open the extracted folder, then:

Windows β†’ double-click FlashScript_EN.bat

Linux β†’ run FlashScript.sh via terminal


Step 5 β€” Select "Format Data"

From the menu that appears, choose the Format Data option. This will wipe your phone's storage so the new ROM can be installed cleanly.


Step 6 β€” Wait for the Process to Finish

The flashing process runs automatically. Do NOT unplug the USB cable until it's completely done! Disconnecting mid-process can permanently damage your phone.


Once flashing is complete, your phone will restart on its own. The first boot usually takes 1 to 3 minutes β€” this is completely normal, so just be patient.


Step 8 β€” All Done! πŸŽ‰

The ROM has been successfully installed on your phone!


πŸ”§ Still Getting Errors?

If you moved to a space-free path and it's still throwing path errors:


1.Check if your Windows username has spaces or accents (C:\Users\Your Name) β€” if so, extract to C:\flash instead of Downloads/Desktop


2.Make sure no subfolder inside the ROM folder got manually renamed with a space


3.Try launching CMD/terminal directly from the folder (Shift + right-click β†’ "Open PowerShell/Terminal window here")
