Hi, you should not do that if don't want your phone brick.
You can use these guides:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/how-to/guide-mate-9-flash-oreo-update-package-t3699522
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/how-to/funky-huawei-erecovery-solution-100-t3620165
All of them work for me.
For future reference or troubleshooting purposes, the one you would use is recovery_ramdisk.
Flashing is done from fastboot - 'fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery.img'

FRD-L09C432 pre-root booted (superuser-r310)
1. Unlock booloader
2. Flash boot.img via fastboot
3. Install phh.superuser https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=me.phh.superuser
B381 Boot.img http://www.datafilehost.com/d/3204ea04
B389 Boot.img http://www.datafilehost.com/d/079e483c
B392SP01 Boot.img http://www.datafilehost.com/d/874fb9b1
Ps: i will keep update rooted boot when a new version is released, but only for L09C432.
So if I want to flash that, I have to be already on B381?
There's no need for this, as we can already root B381 through recovery using SuperSU or PHH. Also, when you flash an SU zip you can also flash the unSU zip to recover from bootloops where as flashing a boot.img has no fallback

How i can flash this? I have unlocked but i have still 8.0 with root. I can do this without clean personal data?
All you need to do is update in your phone's settings. Or in this way. http://en.miui.com/thread-807252-1-1.html

Easiest way to upgrade without losing data is to reboot to bootloader, then use ADB tools and run the below commands:
Fastboot flash system system.img
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
(Copy system.img and boot.img from .tgz file)
Upgrade worked perfectly for me.

I managed to find a way. Lol I'm just going to have to squeeze the old brain to to get this done it looks like. Thanks for the tip. The methods provided all require a system dump of stock firmware to patch TWRP for the phones recovery partition. I may have to cross my fingers and flash the generic unofficial boot image TWRP for android 10 and hope it fits lol. There are absolutely no custom fits at the moment. Of course I accepted the security patch update which made this a bit more tricky. QP1A.190711.020. I found a thread talking about almost the same update except it was two digits more than the version I got. It's been 6 or 7 years since I stopped theming for the galaxy s3. Course I was only changing xmls and pngs for custom roms back then. None of my old team are active anymore. Team Venum and team nOObz are long history. I even lost my log in info for my old profile. Anyways. Wish me luck. I'm going to learn how to port and develope this time around.

Hello. Thanks again in advance. I've tried several command prompt methods to unlock this boot loader with no luck including the Magisk method. I have however managed to patch the TWRP file.

I managed to patch the TWRP boot image using the Magisk apk and patch tools but I have no luck unlocking the boot loader..
1. find your firmware file by searching this forum for blu stock firmware repository
2. extract your boot/recovery img file using spd flash tool
3. patch img file with magisk, re-sign it with avbtools
4. patch vbmeta file with avbtools
5. re-flash both vbmeta and boot/recovery using spd research tool
rooted my blu advance l5 with these steps learned from hovatek. ymmv

Can anyone quickly tell me the easiest way to brick this device? My wife will buy me a new phone "when this one stops working"
Did anyone manage to root this device without bricking it? Firmware is not available in the Blu Repo (at least not yet). Our team would love to find a workable method for this phone. We have access to a bunch and want to be able to run Linux Deploy on them and also write app to automatically reboot the phone if the network connectivity is loss.
Hey, I was able to figure out how to deal with this bootloader stuff after many hours of work
Give this thread a look, it pretty much details every step needed to unlock the bootloader: https://forum.hovatek.com/thread-32287.html
Keep in mind that the OP of that thread is using a way older version of fastboot. For me, r26.0.1 worked best:
Windows: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools_r26.0.1-windows.zip
Mac: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools_r26.0.1-darwin.zip
Linux: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools_r26.0.1-linux.zip
The above step is essential as newer versions of fastboot do NOT have the "fastboot flashing unlock_bootloader <bin>" step
again YMMV, but good luck
Me again, 6 hrs after the fact
Trial and Error enabled root on the V50 - follow these steps
1. Unlock bootloader as above
2. Create a custom signed vbmeta https://forum.hovatek.com/thread-32664.html (I used the same .pem from https://forum.hovatek.com/thread-32287.html to do this) - Make sure the VBMETA IS ANDROID 10 despite G0350WW firmware saying it's Android 9
3. Create custom boot with magisk (plenty of instructions to do this online, go with the github instructions)
4. Sign the custom magisk boot with THE SAME PUB KEY FROM STEP 2
5. Flash your new vbmeta and boot onto your phone via fastboot
6. Reboot, hope and pray it turns on
This is what worked for me, but again YMMV.

Correct, you can see it when you go to the firmware details of the v50 itself. You can get the firmware files when you search this forum for blu stock firmware repository
V50 is essentially a re-wrapped g50

Hey, is there any way you could get me a rooted image and signed vbmeta? I have all the information that you would need, I just can't do the steps because im stupid. I would pay you to do it if you wanted
If the BLU V50 uses the same stock rom as the blu g50, if someone were to give out their patched vb meta and boot img, wouldn't it work for anyones BLU V50 if they just flashed it?

If you make a backup of the boot partition, TWRP will create a file called boot.emmc.win that is nothing different than a boot.img file. You can then pass it to Magisk to patch it.

This worked for me but just boot it without flashing by using "fastboot boot boot.img", that way if it fails your boot partition is still in tact. Once booted you can use Magisk direct install to patch your c.36 boot.
