Your device bootloader is now unlocked and the required firmware is ready to be installed. The hard part is all done.
- Reboot to bootloader mode (disregard if your phone is still in bootloader mode)
- In command window, type the command below
flash-all.bat- You can also just directly double-click and run flash-all.bat file located in the firmware archive you earlier unpacked.
