(P.S I have attached the modified boot image for firmware k53_s123_170216_ROW, so no need to modify the boot image if you are on this firmware.)

Where is the attached k53_s123_170216_ROW boot image ?

Boot.img updated. Cheers

Sounds interesting thanks as I keep getting errors trying to flash SuperSU or Magisk.
I'm on firmware k53_s123_170216_ROW so I will be able to use your boot.img but how would one go about getting the boot.img to modify ? The Nandroid backup is in the boot.emmc.win format and the whole partition I suppose ?

Oops so I flashed your boot.img :

At the end on the screen it says in green at the top "flashing boot ...", rebooted into TWRP 3.0.3.0 with long "VOL UP+VOL DOWN" + "POWER" press.
Tried to install :

- SuperSU-v2.79-201612051815.zip
- Magisk-v12.0.zip
But they all fail unfortunately, same error message as before flashing your boot.img :
Magisk12 error :

SuperSU error :

ok, I updated to TWRP-3.1.0.1_K53a48_by_SevenMaxs.7z and I was able to flash SuperSU-v2.79-201612051815.zip without errors. All booted up and SuperSU in the app drawer and rooted, thanks for the tips, man !
A few more questions if I may :
- is there a stock recovery to put back the K6 Note in factory mode ?
- how does one go about getting the boot.img out of a device for patching ?

If will not modify the boot.img what will gonna happen?
Thanks to this furom....Really help for me

You cannot flash supersu without the modified boot image.
You need to flash the recovery and modified boot image to successfully flash supersu.

To receive OTA's you need to be on stock recovery, and stock boot image without any modification to the system partition.

Can the stock recovery be downloaded anywhere ? Thanks !

as for custom roms i dont think thats gonna happen anytime soon, and there is nothing like official custom recovery, there is only custom recovery like TWRP or CMW.

Hi there, mate. If I do this process, will I be able to remove TWRP if needed (for updating reasons), if so, what would the process be?

So you can't reflash the original recovery ? So that means no more OTA updates, but would it still work with an official update that was downloaded, assuming one becomes available ? Thanks !

I was able to unlock bootloader, installed twrp and root according to your guide
and
also successfully returned to original stock 6.0 rom, stock recovery according to androidmtk's Lenovo_K53_USR_S107_1609131839_Q00380_ROW firmware.
This is a new toy for me now. Many thanks...:laugh:

That noverity.zip disables a mechanism in the boot partition that verify the boot itself and the system partition, when you install twrp a little bit of the boot partition is altered and so the boot is blocked.
Install the zip using twrp. You can take a look at this (https://www.getdroidtips.com/twrp-recovery-ulefone-s8-pro/), but if I remember well, that s8 pro toolkit app is the one that asks you to install the zip

which firmware version are installed on your phone? Have you tried flashing the official ROM from the ulefone site, then retried the process?

Have tried on both v3. 01 & v3. 03 firmwares. Stock firmware wasn't downloaded directly from ulefone site, imagine it will be the same but will give it a go.

One Plus6 doens't boot, no ROM in the phone to install

Hi there,
I did a mistake today(super n00b)!
I have a ONEPLUS6 unlocked bootloader and rooted and i wiped all the data through twrp.
The phone doens't boot now, i didn't flash any ROM, so it doens't startup....
How can i solve this? I have access to twrp but i don't have rom file in the phone to install it...
Is there some kind of software that allows me to flash through the laptop?
Please help and thanks in advance

If you have access to TWRP, reboot into bootloader and follow this process:

unlocking bootloader is necessary and during unlocking the bootloader your phone must be formatted and your data will lost you and internal too.
so you have to backup all your data and music and whatever you are keeping.
Ater unlocking you have to flash PTWRP from the fastboot command and imultaneously boot to TWRP then flash magisk and done your phone is now rooted.
Your data will be lost.

If you will not flash magisk then it will get removed.

Just internal data is removed, not SD's right!?

Hi all
I just updated to ESG5 version of OREO. The nightmare comes... I cannot boot again now !!
Until I flash back the original version of OREO, that is , with ESG5 bootloader one, it can boot.
However, I cannot use TWRP and root anymore !
Anyone has idea? thanks a lot

I flash TWRP in Odin and flash no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0.zip in TWRP.
It has a normal boot for previous version of bootloader.

ok, that other post made it seem like you were trying to flash that in Odin LoL anyways so, when you do all that and then reboot, it just goes black or does it bootloop?

yes, it just bootloop

Don't use no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0.zip (you probably don't need it) .
Start all over. Flash the stock ROM with Odin, then flash TWRP, and then flash Magisk (via TWRP).
