Yeah mate, that happened to me too. I just downloaded an American TWRP instead of the European version.
Such a noob thing
Try to download and flash the European version (assuming you're European like me) and everything will be fine.
Have a nice day

euro models all use the Exynos processor and has a definitely different tar.md5 file for its TWRP vs the american snapdragon models

One last thing, clear cache and data from hicare and try again. If its still not working, just wait it.
I bet he doesnt have AL but european device...
When I change the region to China, it does change but there is this popup displaying me to use "Huawei ID made in China" everytime I access hicare app.
Also, do I need to do anything else, except changing region on hicare?
Yes im on colal10
No, i just changed, entered hicare, went to update, and i got a chinese msg and selected the right option and then it went to the update window and told me that i got a new update.
I didnt have any problem with the huawei id. Mine is for Romania.

huawei mate 20 X Bootloader

Yes chinese mate 20 X can be unlocked 100% sure
Awesome. Seriously interested in this phone but have never had an unrooted phone so more details would be much appreciated. What software are you using here? I'm presuming this is only possible on the Chinese variant and not the global? Will you be attempting to install Magisk? Thanks in advance.

Great stuff. Thanks for the fast reply. I'll be watching for any updates with interest ! I can't live without adblock, afwall and titanium. Plus I'd be wanting to remove any bloatware which for me includes everything Google.

Nothing, I keep using it I have the Huawei Honor Note 8, which was also Chinese, and it was fine, just some of the Chinese applications I wish has English option to use. But So far this phone is great, slightly smaller then the HN8 but still awesome.

Still I'dont get any bugs or random reboot or etc. Everything working perfectly. One thing is, software update is not working. Just show "This version is not supported".

Edit 2. Working after reboot!

You may have to update some Samsung apps for them to work. Also, night mode doesn't fully work (some Samsung apps not included in it). Also, much faster and smoother; however, slightly faster battery drain for me. All the new software is a plus though. The important bugs are similar to bugs on official betas for s9.

Thanks for the update. I will probably wait and stay on Oreo for now, but I will admit, my fingers are itching and I'm very tempted to give this leak a try. Then the part of my brain ? that handles logic and common sense kicks in again and tell me to wait. :laugh:

I would suggest you using modded odin. I also had an unlocked snapdragon S8 US variant SMG950U1 as well and when I flashed the Odin files for CRK1 my device became a Verizon S8 model SMG950U...CRK1 (no longer unlocked but has bloatware). Once the base model is CRK1, you have to download 2 update.zip files. CRK1 to CRL1 and CRL1 to DRL6.
Follow the instructions from the link provided from OP on the first post.

Magisk For Snapdragon Hong Kong S10e (SM-G9700)

Magisk can successfully be installed on the G9700 using the same Exynos method.
Follow these steps:

Happy rooting!
Do not need to use ian magisk, the https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/samsung
is correct too.
As mentioned in 9700 thread: no issues running magisk, not a single reboot etc.

My mistake. I thought it was mandatory because people have been saying you need his Magisk build in order to achieve root on the Snapdragon variants. I have fixed the post. Thanks!

I've had the G9700 for about a week, and now I'm seriously considering selling it. It's a great phone in many respects, but that awkward means of utilising Magisk makes rooting it more trouble than it's worth, and I really need my Viper sound mod.
Unless someone comes up with a Snapdragon TWRP and patches it to Magisk like this, I might as well stick with my ZUK Z2 Pro: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...s10-magisk-t3965673/post80202818#post80202818
