Dear all,
I download update_Q5Pro_(update&themed&Kodi18.2)[v1.2]-HMD-2.1.4 2019-06-04.100340.zip
and follow the instruction as below,and i got robot down.
Why it can't flash?It that my box is not Q5 pro?
The method is slightly different to our official firmware downloads. For these firmwares, you must rename the downloaded zip file to update.zip.
FIRMWARE INSTALL CAN TAKE UP TO 20 MINUTES. DO NOT POWER OFF DURING INSTALL. WAIT FOR THE HOME SCREEN TO APPEAR.
1. Rename firmware update .zip (e.g. update_Q(...)Pro_(...)_HMD-1.0.8(...).zip) to update.zip.
2. Copy update.zip to the root of a USB pen drive.
3. Insert the USB pen drive into any USB port of the Q5Pro.
4. With the Q5Pro turned off, use a paper clip or pen to press and hold the the pinhole restore button on the back side of the Q5Pro.
5. While keeping the RESTORE/UPGRADE button pressed, turn on the Q5Pro.
6. The Q5Pro will show an Android logo and proceed to upgrade the firmware.
7. The box will auto-reboot when finished.
8. First boot can take 4-5 minutes.
9. Wait 15 minutes after first boot to allow system and apps to initialise.

Which version you had before? It's seems you had Android 5, if it's the case you can't update directly to 2.1.4.

I bought Android 7.0 built in.
I think that it is china local version.
They lock bootloader and adb.
Users can only flash the original firmware.
Anyone know how to crack the bootloader?
USB to TTL?

As far as I know it's impossible to flash international firmware to Chinese Q10 Pro hardware and vice versa. There are hardware differences: https://www.futeko.com/newforum/index.php?topic=1175.msg9321#msg9321
