Full Access ROOT - Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers

Hi there,
I tried to flash the patched boot.img and it bricked my phone, I managed to fix it by flashing the official boot.img. Now, I REALLY want full access root, so does someone know what needs to be altered in the boot.img for this to work? I want to alter my boot.img from my firmware.

Hey Tigas,
some users are able to get full root with this patched boot.img from this post:

Unfortunately, this method using SuperSU will break your fingerprint/PIN protection.
If you want to try, simply flash the patched img over the stock img (in TWRP) and install SuperSU from the Play store.

Do you have option to restore your device in case of hardbrick? Obtaining full root on Mate 9 must be done with knowledge what are you doing and what tools are doing...

There is full root. Here are the steps for the regular Mate 9
1) Download TWRP 3.0.2-2 from here and fastboot flash it:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=745425885120697579
2) Boot into TWRP (volume up+power) Go to Wipe, Format Data, then type in yes. Then reboot recovery.
3) Flash my decrypted boot.img from here:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=152685
4) Flash Superuser from here:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=817550096634746024
5) Boot up fully. Go into the Play Store and download PHH Superuser. Or you can download the newer beta here. Install it like any other apk:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=673368273298931027
6) Congratulations, you no longer are encrypted, twrp will see your internal storage and data properly and you have full root. Now do a backup of your current rom in TWRP.

Just to discuss.
Steps 2 and 3 can be merged, if using modified script changes.sh inside of superuser.zip.
Sure, flashing decrypted boot does not require clean stock boot, so we have right boot before installing superuser
But on other side there will be unexpected problems if we will use prepared boot.
I noticed that boot images are different by version. One has additional code to thermal sensors, other doesn't.

Hi also wanted to clarify that this boot image can be flashed on any regular mate 9 and any firmware. Or is it only for a specific version of mate 9 with the same firmware as the boot.img. Thanks for any advice

Hi just to update I followed the instructions by ajsmsp78 and gained full root and was able to install meefik busybox and also uninstall system apps which I couldn't do before. When I flashed the boot.img and superuser and booted up some of my apps were missing. I then flashed the public and hw zips for my region and most of them were back. I now have decrypted data and full root. Thanks a lot

did you tried to back up n restore in twrp?

If I flash that boot.img it will brick my phone, I've tried it and had to flash the original boot.img as of now I have the phh superuser root. The flash method I used was fastboot and yes, I have my bootloader unlocked. Been rooting android phones for 5 - 6 years
Do I really need to wipe the data partition? Will the fingerprint sensor remain working?

Yeah, you can. When you are formatting data, encryption is going off. Then need use modified boot to prevent encryption back.

Not really need. If you are interesting only root and writeable system, then don't format data.
Can't say anything about fingerprint sensor - I never used it.

I haven't tried backing up in twrp yet. Will do so later today. When I flashed the public and hw zips all my huawei apps came back but not the extra bloat like Facebook or todoist etc. Not to bothered as I don't need them. The only thing missing was the magazine lock wallpapers but I downloaded replacements from the theme app. All good now. Thanks

I also flashed that boot.img previously and bricked my phone. However this time it worked, the only thing I did different was to wipe data in twrp. Don't know if this made any difference but it worked

If you don't wipe data first to decrypt and then flssh the decrypted boot you'll probably end up in a bootloop. I'll have to make a decrypted boot thread with a few different boot images for those still on older systems (B112, B029 etc)

Thanks that would be great and very helpful to others

Someone state that one of the root methods broke the finger print scanner, does this method from @ajsmsg78 correct that issue? And is there any other side effects or "broke" items after the process?

Fingerprint works fine for me after rooting.

Have you tried android pay? TiBU works without issues? Any chance OTA updates could still work? Thanks.

For all models...?
Just to be clear; which model do you have? Would the boot.img work for all models? I have the AL00.

I don't use Android pay but the fingerprint scanner works fine so far for me after rooting. OTA should work fine but I need confirmation of it working by someone.

Are you saying that if you just flash superuser to gain root but do not decrypt, you can't do backups and restores with TiBU? And remove system apps? I was under the impression from another thread that decrypting was only necessary for TWRP data access, and would not prevent TiBU features from working.

deleted sorry wrong thread

Trouble rooting my Pixel

I have tried TWRP (twrp.me/devices/googlepixel.html) and the Unified Android Toolkit (skipsoft.net/download/uat-v156/) to root the Pixel I bought directly from Google. With TWRP, I cannot see the .zip I downloaded (the phone is encrypted and /sdcard/* are all gibberish names; I'm never prompted for a decrypting password when booting for recovery) and with the Toolkit I end up in a reboot loop (I've tried twice with the same results).
I'm surprised that the Toolkit thinks my build is "Verizon" (NDE63X). I'm not sure if that matters.
Thoughts? Pointers? Diagnostics? TIA.

Thanks. That gets me further. I put twrp-pixel-installer-sailfish-3.0.2-0-alpha2.zip and SR3-SuperSU-v2.78-SR3-20161103171345.zip on the SD card. I booted with twrp-3.0.2-0-alpha2-fastboot-sailfish.img and I could see the zips. I installed alpha2.zip, reboooted, installed SuperSU, rebooted. I don't see SuperSU in my app list. I'm missing something. I'm not sure what you mean by "v4 root".

I'm curious, I think I have ADB set up correctly but I have never had any luck I. Using it before ( mainly because of ADB language and commands to do what I want to do). Is there a guide that tells people like myself what to type and where to put files? Man that would be nice .

I highly recommend that if you're going to be doing stuff like this to your phone you get familiar with ADB and fastboot otherwise you're just asking for trouble. Each of the threads on custom recovery and root have the links and instructions including commands, read everything twice since you're new to this and I mean everything.

[ROM] MCG24.251-5 100% Stock

Flash using TWRP. This will flash all files in the MCG24.251-5 update except for recovery.
New features in this update that I've noticed:
-Marshmallow, aged to perfection in Verizon's own servers. Only one major release version obsolete, and with outdated security patches!
-WiFi calling (woooooo! Those custom roms just got another carrier-specific, unportable feature to compete with)
-The command center widget has been replaced with the Droid Turbo 2 version
Get it here: https://mega.nz/#!G1xg1aYa!fm2hUL7hDDVaxTAj_iPbtY61P-8VrQEvoOJiVsDtdho
Here's the stock recovery image if you want it: https://mega.nz/#!r1wDQRCJ!KHbo_Q6L-WE_VyB1x8W4FbT6PrerPEyn9H1C6VUAyf8
Flashing this rom updates the bootloader to a version that can communicate with the kernel to tell SafetyNet that it is unlocked, causing it to fail. Fret not, however, as there are two options to fix this:
OPTION 1: Flash the SU4TL-49 bootloader using the following TWRP package: https://mega.nz/#!6logEaIQ!q8qPJw65Upt38Hxiu1JyxErmwbgL7CBzuGzzPC0C9pQ
OPTION 2: Flash this patch made by @bhb27: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=745425885120696423
Wipe cache and dalvik/art cache after either of these options.
NOTE that these options only fix failures due to SafetyNet checking the bootloader status. It will still fail due to root, xposed and the like. There are no known consequences or side effects to either of these options, so just pick whichever one you feel like.
If you notice weird things after you flash this rom (long boots other than the first one which is supposed to be long, random reboots, etc.) try flashing the stock recovery image and factory resetting.
If you want root, flash this version of SuperSU first, then flash whatever newer version you want: https://download.chainfire.eu/751/SuperSU/
If you have trouble flashing this, try TWRP Mod 3 instead of Mod 4.
Ouch, you have almost full flash inside archive, with bootloader too... Who is the most brave, introduce yourself ))
+ mirror
I can confirm that it works on old bootloader.
I had SULT-49 5.1 installed before and I just flashed this via TWRP. I haven't taken the OTA. It works perfectly. Thank you.
PS: My bootloader now is moto-apq8084-70.95 (2016-06-29). Do you have same version after taking OTA?
Did you have to wipe the system, data and cache first like you would with a new ROM or just dirty flash it?

Root Japanese S7 edge SCV33 thats being booted up with SC-02H Firmware

After carrier unlocking Japanese S7 edge SCV33 model, the firmware changes to SC-02H.
To root the device ( Nougat )
First enable OEM unlocking from the developers options.
Flash this TWRP via odin v3.12.5
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=817550096634747128
After installing, Please backup the whole rom to your SD card.
If you have any problem backing up. You can flash the stock recovery image in the link below and your device will boot up fine.
If the TWRP backup is a success,
First make sure your device boots up with this Twrp installed before rooting.
If the device boots up, then flash the SuperSu. If the device doesnot boots up, flash the stock recovery.
Workaround:
If the device fails to boot up with this twrp, Flash the super su. Turn off the device, then flash the Stock recovery via odin and bootup the phone. See if Super Su is installed.
Flash this flashable SuperSu v2.82.zip
http://www.supersu.com/download
You will loose root after a factory reset. Flash again!!!!
DONOT DO ANYTHING WITHOUT BACKING UP.
First boot will loop for few times.
YOUR SIM CARD WILL RUN FINE
After rooting, incase you want your stock recovery, or your device doesnot boots up. Flash this via odin.
S7 edge SC-02H Stock recovery image
All credit goes to the rightful owners.
If this doesnt help and you fail to boot up the device or you messed up the device..... just restore from twrp and flash the stock recovery. You will have your device back to normal like it was before.
Hit thanks if this helped.
Below are some screenshots with SuperSu and all japanese apps removed!
You can also change the boot animation of this device by replacing corresponding botanimation files.
Backup the stock bootanimation files first.
Navigate to ;
root/system/media and replace the boot animation files.
Link is below.
And dont forget to set their permissons to ( r-w-r-r )
UPDATE:
Xposed also working....
download link below.
Xposed installer from PurifyOs....
So, i found a new rom for our device
Found a new rom for our device... anybody would like to test it???
Flash the rom via ODIN....
Caution: I have experienced loosing my imei number if i perform a factory reset after installing this rom. Because of the previous nandroid backup, i was able to bring back device to previous working state. DO IT ON YOUR OWN RISK..
My advice is that you backup your current rom and then only FLASH.
You get the idea.
Lot of work needed in this rom.
However it is stable...
Anybody who would like to modify????
All credit goes to the rightful owner....
Features like:
inbuilt fingerprint app lock
new launcher
all japanese bloats removed
no requirement of japanese docomo country code while dialing certain numbers
samsung keyboard
many device languages

Yes....
Inorder to solve the failed to mount data.... you will have to boot into twrp and then go to wipe. At the bottom left.. you will see fomat data....
You will loose all the phone memory data so first its better you backup....
Then you will have no problem.. you can boot up all ok.
to install xposed..... Flash the xposed installer from twrp and the reboot. Install the xposed apk file and there you go.. you have your Xposed.
To uninstall xposed if incase you dont like it... Uninstall the xposed apk... reboot to twrp and flash the xposed uninstaller.zip

you can manually delete the carrier bloats using any root explorer after rooting. you can then make and save a debloated nandroid backups..
or
you can go ahead and try whatever you are feeling like to... Life is an experiment my friend.

to install xposed..... Flash the xposed installer from twrp and the reboot. Install the xposed apk file and there you go.. you have your Xposed.
To uninstall xposed if incase you dont like it... Uninstall the xposed apk... reboot to twrp and flash the xposed uninstaller.zip

That's a Twrp Decryption which we find in Almost All Mtk Devices Running MM, Nougat, Oreo.
Don't Worry, nothing is related to Ur settings/security

no,no,no i know that, i just want to know did encryption setting changed to decrypted.
What do we get with this method?
I would like to see if we can remove the system ones, and gain some performance on that.

This Is nothing related to performance, it just removes encryption in Twrp Recovery. So we can see the Internal Storage in Twrp Recovery.
If u Want to Get Performance, Remove the ****ty Apps, which are present with System App Remover!
I can confirm that this method works, i didn't know that it was that simple.
Quick question, fellas;
Mine tarp is ported from P9. Is this is the only one recovery around for our device?
What about full tarp backup and format /system and /data? Is there any chance for brick? I've rooted with Magical, but because of the encryption (I cannot see internal memory and /data) I doesn't flash any modules. Thanks for the future info!

yeah, that is only recovery that works, you can brick device if you wipe /system. You should wipe /system only when you are doing full wipe (flashing new ROM). You can wipe /data but it will remove existing non-system apps. I never did twrp backup so you can try.
Does the twrp encryption removal survive ota updates and oreo beta update?

I don't think so because every .nb0 file that i flashed have encryption enabled. But after flashing new rom, you can immediately factory reset when you boot to rom to prevent losing data.

@MoHuToP
ok, i tried full twrp backup, but it stops on system image backup, it stoped around 60%. Backup have 11.5 GB (really huge isn't it).
DELETED
Ok, this method worked on Nougat with SuperSU because SuperSU patched fstab and file contexts successfully. It doesn't work on Oreo because Oreo now have plat_file_contexts and non_plat_file contexts. SuperSU needs to be updated to patch these files succesufully or we need to manually patch it so we can remove encryption.
Just to update this guide: This works only on Nougat. You need to have installed twrp and unlocked bootloader. Magisk doesn't work with this method because it doesn't patch fstab and file contents file so you need to uninstall it by going to Magisk app and clicking uninstall. After that go to TWRP, flash unSu > stock boot.img. You can flash Magisk after that with removed encryption.
Steps:
1. Flash SuperSU 2.79 stable with TWRP
2. Reboot your phone to system.
3. Reboot to TWRP again.
4. Choose Wipe > Swipe to Factory reset
5. Choose Wipe > Advanced > Internal Storage
Now you wiped Data, Cache, Dalvik cache and Internal Storage.
Your phone will have removed encryption now.
If you want Magisk, just flash unSu script > stock boot.img > Magisk
If you update your phone, it will encrypt your phone again so you need to repeat steps again.
I have redmi note 5 mec7s and i instal global stable 9.5.13.0

This is only for the NOKIA 3 - if you have tried this on a different device there could be the possibility of Bricking it, let's hope not.
I suggest going to your own device forum for assistance.
I have reformatted and factory resetted many times but the issue keeps coming back after I boot into system. To clarify, my steps were to reformat inside the wipe section, boot into recovery and check to see there's no encryption, and then boot back to system to install magisk with the manager app. I have tried adding a factory reset to that process, but that won't work either. My TWRP is 3.2.1-0 and I will try to update it and see if it works. Also, sorry if I reply slow.

[SOLVED] Stuck on TWRP splash screen after restore

Just tried to restore a backup for the first time using official TWRP. At the end of restore it had red text saying something like couldn't mount system but said restore complete. Tried booting and it gives the unlock warning then goes to black screen and led light out up constantly and doesn't boot. I try to boot back into recovery and just stays on TWRP splash screen. What did I do wrong and how do I fix this?
try to reflash TWRP to official, u will have to use fastboot method

Boot to TWRP, restore data only, flash the full ROM.zip, reflash official TWRP, reboot (may say there is no OS installed, ignore)
If you want magisk root, reboot into recovery after phone boots into OS, flash magisk and all modules should work again.

Whatever OOS version you want. It will make you stock after a flash with official TWRP, but since you restore data from your backup, it will keep all apps and settings. That's why you flash TWRP.zip after OTA.zip finishes. It will replace your boot IMG with stock. Then after you boot into system, you can install magisk by flashing again in TWRP. You can't flash magisk right away because of the a/b partition. Causes an error.

You can download full ROM zip of your choice from this thread. Either will work.

I believe OTG works in official TWRP if you have OTG cable and usb. MTP works in unofficial TWRP but I'm not sure which one I that was. May have been this one but don't flash the fix. I think the fix disables MTP

I never could get the older unofficial twrp to boot so I couldn't transfer the rom. Had to use above suggestion. Thanks so much for all of you guys help. I'm just so happy to have a working phone again....
I did make a cloud backup of one of my twrp backups. wondering if I can restore that data once I've got twrp installed again and rooted?

That should work. Just wipe data and cache in TWRP, then restore data from your old backup. I'd recommend keeping a zip file in internal storage of the ROM in case of emergency. That way you can recover without having to wipe internal storage again.

Old thread but thanks! I had same problem and your method worked for Xiaomi Mi A1
Similar, but reinstalling from scratch. I don want to preserve any data on divice.
By mounting Data partition from TWRP this is what you can see among other things
Internal Storage
NitrogenOS-Updates
Nitrogen-OS-P-kenzo-20190519.zip
I don't remember what next. Any link any link is sufficient and very welcome.
Also a suggestion on where to go to ask, if this is not the right place!
Mi device "xiaomi 3", is perfect for me!
