About [root] FlashFire

FlashFire is the most advanced on-device firmware flasher available for rooted Android devices. It can flash full firmware packages from various manufacturers, as well as apply over-the-air (OTA) and ZIP updates - all while maintaining root, and without using a custom recovery. It also offers full device backup and restore functionalities in several formats. Relevant files can be stored on internal storage, SD cards, USB connected storage, or can even be streamed directly to and from your computer using USB or Wi-Fi.

FlashFire is the spiritual successor to the Mobile ODIN app, which was a similar solution (using completely different methods under the hood) exclusively for Samsung devices on older Android versions.

FlashFire is an extremely powerful application, it should be used with caution. Data loss, soft-bricks, and even hard-bricks are possible if used incorrectly. Unless you are an expert user, consult FlashFire's website and the XDA discussion thread before doing anything potentially destructive.

Note: currently all functionality is unlocked without purchasing Pro. This may change in the future!

I have flashed radios and made backups so far. I went back to stock recovery because from what I have read I will not need a custom anymore. Looking forward to using it to flash the next update (either the full package or the OTA if it comes fast enough).

by C####:

This was the only way for me to installing a custom ROM, since my device has a locked bootloader. I do wish that a) wipe would not be put at the bottom every time, and b) FlashFire would reinstall itself after a wipe. Otherwise, awesome work, and thanks!

I was hesitant at first, but after reading about how to install a factory update, I decided to try it. Worked like a dream. Downloaded the factory image, followed instructions, unchecked recovery and hit the button. Saw how it was working and then it booted, then it stop booting for a few seconds, then started booting again and it took like 6 minutes, then booted up. Worked great. Still rooted and have twrp. Great work guys

Awesome with my not so well known devices. Just does not work with the 16 cm su, which comes preloaded with Lineage 7.1.1 Edit: Sorry. HeHeHe. SELinux has to be permissive in CM SU.

For years and through many different cellphones I've been rooting and changing OSes and this is by far the best apk to get the job done. Every hacker and hacker-wanna-be needs try this tool.

I have tried several apps to make a Nandroid backup on a Chinese smartphone (Lenovo) running with Android 5.1.This apps was the sole to succeed. Bravo ! Donation, of course ! Please continue. One more info: to backup, I need to run the process 2 times - the first time, I only have a reboot, the second time this app makes the backup alright. Great!

great app

N70%
by N####:

This application is the best and worthy of supporting the dev. Flash OTA's without loosing root has been easy as pie. Backing Up without the need if a custom recovery even better. So if your rooted then what you waiting for download this app and support the dev.

My PC died and with it went my ADB routine to update. I wasn't sure how serviceable Flashfire would be as a replacement, but I'm glad I tried... It's easier and quicker and doesn't require a PC and I found my new way to update my rooted phones!

C70%
by C####:

Great idea, but did not work for me. Ended up with "no command" after OTA update on my 5X. Maybe I was missing something. Anyway, I will stick to flashing over USB; it may be more manual work, but it is guaranteed to work.

After several failed attempts to root with Odin pack SM-T325-4.4.2, loaded CF Root and FlashFire directly into the pad. Rest was pinuts as FlashFire did the job. Rooting achieved w/o PC. THANKS PS, how update my Odin pro to Flash fire pro?

This is an amazing app after using it for a while. I get 100% success rates. The people that say there phone is bricked because of this are obviously too stupid to flash anything to there phone and should not be trusted to handle it.

Nice app. It used to work on my phone (MI5)but now it's not, it detects the ota updates but when I click to flash the app crashes, and the app is not able to locate the zip.

K70%
by K####:

This is best app for unknown devices that has not custom recovery.I have yu6000 and there is not too much resources about it on net. I have personally also tried to make custom recovery but it fails . Suddenly , I got error there is a problem communicating with Google server. So, I have deeply research on tricks but nothing works for me . Then , I find flashfire and I have reflashed my stock rom . That works for me . Thanks a lot chainfire .
