Need boot.img FRD-L09 B404

Hello everyone.
I unlocked a bootloader in my freshly bought Honor 8 last week and I the first thing I did was to flash a root package (obviously). I'm used to SuperSU, so tha's what I flashed. Then I found out about Magisk. I want to try it, but I need to flash stock boot.img in order to install it. My build number is FRD-L09C432B404 (EMUI 5.0, Android 7.0). Could anyone upload corresponding boot img? I'd be thankful.
Do it yourself! ^^

Hello!
You can do it yourself, just follow these steps:
1) Download your firmware (update.zip) from hicloud url: update.zip
2) Extract zip
3) Download "Huawei Update Extractor 0.9.9.5" (zip file): HuaweiUpdateExtractor_0.9.9.5.zip
4) Extract zip
5) Open "HuaweiUpdateExtractor.exe" extracted from previous step
6) Click on the 2 dots button and navigate to the file to add the "UPDATE.APP" file ( extracted from step 2) ), it will show you all the files like boot.img , recovery.img , recovery2.img , system.img , etc.
7) Select "BOOT.img" and right-click > "Extract Selected". Choose this destination folder: Where fastboot/adb are installed.
8) Use fastboot command to flash "BOOT.img":
Code:
fastboot flash boot BOOT.img
Hope it helps you!
I'd rather not download 1.3GB of firmware for the sake of one small boot.img which can't be bigger than 50MBs, not to mention additional software I'll use probably never again, so I'd be thankful if someone sent already extracted boot

BOOT.img file from FRD-L09C432B404 firmware: Google Drive or MEGA

Thanks for your support. I had to extract it anyways for stock recovery, so here it is in case someone needed it.

It´s inside the file "update.app". You need a special tool to extract.
Please take a look to this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mediapad-m5/how-to/root-root-guide-huawei-mediapad-m5-t3786157
From the M5 guide:
"Download the full stock rom (update.zip) from the site I linked in the credits. Extract UPDATE.APP file from the zip. Then use HuaweiUpdateExtractor to extract ramdisk.img specific to your device"
I might be dumb AF but these guides are incomplete :/
Can anybody please share the Profiles.xml containing the images for the M5 Lite?
So far I used the Firmware Finder for downloading the latest rom which contains the UPDATE.APP and also downloaded the HuaweiUpdateExtractor but without the right profile it won't open file.
EDIT: currently following the main guide about extracting the ramdisk image: https://www.theandroidsoul.com/extract-huawei-firmware-update-app/
EDIT-2: guide (the one of my link above, not the guide of this thread) followed and finally rooted! Man, what a journey.

When you will find your firmware version click on filelist and pick the first link, usually is the largest file from all 3 links (like 1.8GB for example).
7. Download update.zip and extract UPDATE.APP from inside using WinRAR or so.
8. Open Huawei Update Extractor and open with it UPDATE.APP file by clicking [...] button.
Important: If program will not let you open the file because of some CRC errors, go on settings tab and uncheck Verify Header Checksum.
For me was not possible to open UPDATE.APP without previous step.
9. Find RAMDISK.img file on the list and extract it.
10. Copy RAMDISK.img file to tablet at any place.
11. Install Magisk Manager apk on tablet.

use
Code:
adb pull
and
Code:
adb push
to achieve the transfers as people noticed that using MTP can corrupt the file:
Code:
1. adb push /path/to/RAMDISK.IMG /sdcard
2. Patch the file using Magisk.
3. adb pull /sdcard/Download/magisk_patched.img ./
And then flash it through fastboot.
Hey Bossman, im stuck at the very end. I copied the patched magisk img to my pc folder where the adb is and when i type the fastboot flash ramdisk ****** it says
"error: cannot load 'patched-ramdisk.img': No such file or directory"
I dont know what im doing wrong?
the adb debugging on and im at the bootloader screen and my stuff is unlocked.
please help me, im not sure where im going wrong, the directions are so simple.
edit* nvm i fixed it
i had to do that adb pull and it worked from there. thank you again so much. i dont know what im going to do with this huawei device but online it said it was a good tablet to have so maybe more will come with this. if not, i can always use it as a security monitor? lol thanks again, have a great night!

Same issue here.
The solution is written on the Magisk Homepage:
Don't extract the file with Zarchive.
Download the file update. Zip from the Tablet to the PC (with the Huawei Tool) and unzip the file one time with 7zip.
Use the tool Huawei Firmware extracter. Disable in the settings the checksumme check and extract the Ramdisk.img. Copy the file back to the Tablet and let it patch from Magisk. Copy the patched file back to the PC, boot the Tablet into Fastboot (via adb reboot bootloader) and flash the Ram disk.img.
Remember to active at every reboot the USB Debugging in the Dev settings. It's disabled automatically.
Thanks for the guide. Should I unroot device if I get a new official update?
With the updates I lost my root access which I was using for multi user on my M5 lite Wifi
So I had to do the whole process again.
Here is the patched file for the version : BAH2-W19 8.0.0.278 (OCEC431)
so if you have the same version you can skip some steps and flash it.
firmware : BAH2-W19OCEC431B278
https://www.mediafire.com/file/mizbqmyztiuyj13/magisk_patched.img/file
You 'll have to re-edit the file to enable the multiuser (if you already did it previously the users will still have their config)

So with this file, the process from the OP is shortened to:
1. Type
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
. Your device will boot into the fastboot mode and you will see BOOTLOADER UNLOCKED on the tab screen.
2. Now type
Code:
fastboot flash ramdisk magisk_patched.img
(above file for BAH2-W19 8.0.0.278 (OCEC431)).
3. Your device is Successfully Rooted.
Is this right?
edit: to answer my own question: yes
Also, do we need to do this after every OTA update? (not that I expect so many in the future...)
Keine ramdisk Partition mehr
Hi,
since the last update BAH2-L09OCEC432B278 a ramsisk partition is no longer available.
I followed the modified guide with 7-zip and downloading the update.app on my PC and then pushing it onto the tablet with
C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>adb push c:/RECOVERY_RAMDIS.img /storage/emulated/0/Download
I created the magisk_patched.img and used the pull adb command to get it back onto my PC.
I followed the steps in the guide with fastboot, but the very last command fails.
The tablet says both are unlocked, on the Magisk Website there is a short section on "Magisk in Recovery", but pushing the Power on and Volume up does not give my a Magisk option.
Update: I followed the Patching guide, but this fails with the following message:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot flash recovery magisk_patched.img
target reported max download size of 471859200 bytes
sending 'recovery' (26386 KB)...

Hi,
I have the Huawei MediaPad M5 lite 10 but the Build Number for me is 'BAH2-W19 8.0.0.278 (OCEC432)'
and I can't seem to find the update file for it to follow the steps above?
Any help would be appreciated on what steps I need to do.
Thanks, :good:
Your Build number translates to the same firmware as mine: BAH2-L09OCEC432B278
This is a great explanation: https://www.theandroidsoul.com/extract-huawei-firmware-update-app/
Download the file from MT Team and extract is with 7Zip: https://pro-teammt.ru/en/
Hope this helps.
PS: Could you let me know if you are able to flash your phone since it is the same build?
THX!

Huawei Update Extractor: it mentions this in there but I have a MacBook and there doesn't seem to be a version for this.
Am I missing something?
Hmm, I have Linux and had to dual boot into Windows, because of several tools - this one included - wanting Windows. There is an emulator / VM available for Windows on Mac, but might be a bit over the top...

Sprint/Tmobile OnePlus 8 5G IN2017

Is my version able to flash ROMs from the OnePlus 8 ROMs section?
I have gone through the process on unlocking my bootloader and installed a recovery but every time i try to flash/sideload a .zip ROM it just states "Error installing zip file ......."
I would really appreciate knowing this as well. My OnePlus 8 basically useless at this point. I think the only fix is going to be the flash the ROM
If ROM won't install in recovery try payload_dumper method
1. Download payload_dumper.zip and extract
2. Extract payload.bin file from ROM you want to install, and move it to the payload input folder inside payload_dumper
3. Run payload dumper.exe
4. Once the command prompt window closes, copy ALL files from "payload output" to where your fastboot files are located
5. Boot phone into fastboot and plug into PC, run "flashall.bat" inside your fastboot folder to install the ROM
6. Reboot to recovery after and factory data reset.

[SAMSUNG DEVICES] Remove the "The phone is not running Samsung’s official software." message and the Bootloader Warning.

Here's a simple step-by-step guide to remove the "The phone is not running Samsung’s official software. You may have problems with features or security. And you won’t be able to install software updates." message from your Samsung device and the Bootloader Warning using the universal_exynos_boot_logo_changer.zip file:
Note: Before proceeding with the below steps, make sure to backup your important data and proceed at your own risk.
Here's a list of the files you'll need to remove the "The phone is not running Samsung’s official software" message and the Bootloader Warning from your Samsung device:
"Universal_exynos_boot_logo_changer.zip";
Original firmware for your Samsung device - This file should be downloaded from a trusted source online. Make sure to download the correct firmware for your specific device model and variant. (I recommend using "Frija");
TWRP recovery - You'll need to have TWRP flashed in your phone (Learn how to do it);
Moded 7zip for LZ4 - You will need to download Moded 7zip for LZ4, otherwise you won't be able to open .bin files.
Once you have downloaded these files, you're ready to proceed with the steps to remove the message.
Download the "Universal_exynos_boot_logo_changer.zip" file and your original firmware from a trusted source.
Extract the contents of the "Universal_exynos_boot_logo_changer.zip" file to a folder on your computer.
Use Moded 7zip for LZ4 to open the "BL" file of your original firmware.
Inside the "BL" file, open "param.bin.lz4".
Inside "param.bin.lz4", open "param.bin".
Copy the logo.jpg file from the folder where you extracted the "Universal_exynos_boot_logo_changer.zip" file and paste it into the folder where you opened "param.bin".
Zip the contents of the folder where you extracted the "Universal_exynos_boot_logo_changer.zip" file, including the new logo.jpg file.
Transfer the newly created zip file to your Samsung phone's internal storage or external SD card.
Boot into TWRP recovery on your Samsung phone.
Flash the zip file you created in step 7 through TWRP.
Once the flashing process is complete, reboot your phone.
The "The phone is not running Samsung’s official software" message should now be removed and replaced with the new boot logo you added.
That's it! Your Samsung device should now have a new boot logo and the messages should be removed.
Note: If you decide to edit the logo.jpg file to replace the startup logo image on your Samsung device, remember that the edited image will be the one that appears when the device is powered on. So, make sure to choose an image that you like and that is in the correct format. Additionally, it is highly recommended to backup the original file before making any changes, so you can easily restore it if something goes wrong during the editing process.
