thank you for sharing
my device was successfully downgraded,
but from os 7 the update via ota jumps to os 9 instead of 8 first

Not funny.
ONLINE UPDATE TOOL.ZIP is password protected. Great, now I have a bricked device. What's the password?
EDIT1: It was 123 .... seriously???
EDIT2: After flashing it asks for password to load Android. System is encrypted. Wtf?
EDIT3: Did a wipe, works now. But it asks to download almost 2gb update and there is no way to cancel it. I hope it's not 9.
EDIT4: Yep, it's 9. Phone demanded to update to Android 9, only then it allowed to use it.

OnlineUpdateTool.zip PASSWORD IS 123

Can't bypass android 9 update
My phone was downgraded successfully but it doesn't start unless I update to android 9..... Plz help

Hi there,
Well if you turn off your wifi and mobile data at the beginning of the setup you will not be forced to download the latest version of android.
Regards
KIBS2173

After the flash, if you are prompted for a code, do a full delete.
Do not use network during setup, there will be no update.
Perfect description!
Thank you very much!

before u downgrade u have to remove all the Google accounts. otherwise when u got finished downgrading u will force to update to android 9 unless u haven't unlock the boot loader..
if bootloader unlocked u can bypass setup wizard using twrp file manager.

Downgrading deletes all data, including accounts.
Simply set up your phone without a sim card and don't connect to wifi. There will be no update.

Thank you
I made an account specifically to thank you. This works very well.
Just a note:
Remove your google account from your device before flashing. Otherwise, it won't let you skip the setup when you boot the phone after the flash.
This is due to a security feature in Android called Factory Reset Protection (FRP). Which essentially makes sure that the owner of the device (or basically the last account that was on it) is the same one logging in after the reset. That's why it doesn't let you skip the setup, thus forcing you to upgrade to Android 9.
If you didn't remove your google account before flashing, you'll have to:
1- Do the Pie update during the setup
2- Sign in with the same google account you had logged in before flashing
3- Remove that account
4- Do the whole flashing process from the start again
You can save yourself from this hassle just by removing the account BEFORE you flash to begin with.
Needless to say, you should disable WiFi and remove your SIM card to bypass the update on boot.
---------- Post added at 01:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:17 PM ----------
Also if I may, I have a small question. After downgrading to stock 7.1.1, can I re-flash the December OTA update to get a more recent version?
I want to do this because there's an issue with USB connection and I am hoping that the December OTA fixes it.
UPDATE: I was able to get the OTA zip files from teamandroid (I can't post the link because my account is new , sorry)
I was on 7.1.1 June 2017, so I flashed July, August, September, and October in order.
This gave me Android 7.1.2, October 2017 security patch, and fixed the USB issue.

Hi everyone,
To prevent your phone from updating, after flashing and resetting, just skip the wifi connection, or eject your sim therefore no update will be found.

Cannot upgrade my Honor 6 H60-L04

Hi there
today i've tried to update my Honor 6 , but when the download terminates and the phone boot in to recovery, appear an error and it doesn't let me upgrade.
What can i do?
anyone else has found this problem?
P.S.
previously I did root, but now I removed root, restored recovery and relocked the bootloader :crying:
up
Same thing happened to me not rotted. I think I'm going to root any way as I want touchwiz
How I fixed my failing update to B370 (OTA) H60-L04.
I had the exact same problem. I got an error while doing the OTA update, even with a stock recovery.
Special Note: If you have an exFat SD-card you should remove or convert it to ext fs before proceeding. ex-Fat filesystem has been known to cause failure of the .img flashing steps.
Special Note 2: If you do not have B109SP01, ensure that you update to that version first before proceeding. This is since the OTA update.zip is an incremental/partial update and not a "full OS" update. It adds the EMUI3.0 and installs specific .img files, not a full Android.
Disclaimer: This method did NOT delete or remove any data for me, but I can not guarantee it will not change any data.
Ensure that you have a CWM/TWRP backup or any cloud backups of contacts/photos/SMSes and any other data
you need before you continue. Settings such as XPOSED and similar may be altered/modified or disappear, but
this is most likely due to temporary removal of root privilige during this upgrade AND the new updated
EMUI 3.0 rom you will receive.
Here's how I suggest you do:
1. Use the Multi-tool again and unlock your bootloader and root the phone again.
Install the universal ADB driver if you haven't previously.
Honor6 Multi-tool download here...
2. Download the following files:
Huawei Update Extractor
^^^Install this one, download setup version 0.9.8.0.
Official
Honor 6 B109SP01 Upgrade .zip file
^^^Extract this .zip file to a temporary folder.
3. Now comes the special part. First of all you need to run the Huawei Update Extractor.
Use the default "Unknown (worstenbrood)" profile and target/select the unzipped "Update.APP" file that should
be in the B109SP01 folder that you just extracted (In the "Honor6" subfolder).

"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Like the picture above you will only need to extract the RECOVERY.IMG and SYSTEM.IMG files.
Ctrl-left click to select and then right click and select "Extract selected".
(Note: you will also get two ".img.header" files created, those are not needed)
Extract the files to the folder for the Honor 6 Multi-tool where you have adb.exe/fastboot.exe since we will use those commands.
4. When you have done the above extractions (it can take a while for system since it is 1.35 GB) you need to start your phone in
FASTBOOT mode. Power Off your phone and press Volume Down and connect USB to computer
(while pressing down Volume Down) to enter fastboot mode. (Same as when you are unlocking/rooting the phone from scratch).
5. Now start a command/DOS window, As Administrator to ensure no restrictions. We are now going to enter a few commands with ADB.
Go to the path where you have adb.exe/fastboot.exe for the Honor 6 Multi-tool, using cd command eg.
"cd C:\Users\XXX\Downloads\HONOR_6___6Plus_Multi-Tool\HONOR 6 Multi-Tool". Use dir command to check that you have all
files you need adb.exe/fastboot.exe and RECOVERY.IMG and SYSTEM.IMG.
6. First issue the command:
fastboot devices
This will return an identity to show that you have your phone connected. If it returns empty, please check that your phone is
properly discovered and has the right driver (install from Multi-tool if needed). Redo the command until it is discovered
7. Next, issue the following command:
fastboot flash recovery RECOVERY.img
This will flash the stock RECOVERY.img from B109SP01. It will not take a long time.
8. And finally issue the last command:
fastboot flash system SYSTEM.img
This will flash the stock SYSTEM.img from B109SP01 and IT WILL REMOVE ROOT for the time being.
Ensure that this completes properly, since it is a 1.35 GB file it will take a while. Do not disconnect or disturb this activity.
It can take several steps and a few minutes to complete. Check that you really have a final "ready" and are back in the
command prompt before this is complete. Check the RECOVERY.img result for comparison.
9. When both steps above are completed fully you can now disconnect the phone.
Press the power button a 10-15 seconds to ensure it really shuts down from the FASTBOOT mode.
Then boot up the phone again.
10. This should boot up your phone and you should notice no difference now. Root is however gone so any apps/functions
depending on root will fail. This is actually good for now, this means that above steps have worked.
(XPOSED and other apps using root are not working, certain stock features/looks are "back".)
11. Go to the "System Update" function in the regular settings. Now run the OTA update to B370 as normal or
use the Local Update functions if you want to. Do the reboots and hopefully it will run 100% and not stop with a failure.
Please review and redo steps above if it still fails.
12. After reboot it will do the necessary "Updating applications" as any Android update.
When you boot into the phone the first time things will have changed (like background, some icons etc.) but your
apps and data should remain. You will also go through a small guide, about 3-4 steps (Language/regions settings etc.)
13. Do any necessary updates from Google Play store (if any pending). Also reboot the phone into FASTBOOT mode
and re-run the Honor 6 Multi-tool to root your phone again (if needed) and install CWM/TWRP (if you wish).
14. Voilá, you should now have a B370 EMUI 3.0 phone. Please note that certain apps may have changed or lost certain
locks/functions so I recommend that you reinstall those first. Also check your "default" SMS/Webbrowser/Caller apps etc
that you would like to use if you are not using stock Huawei ones.
I recommend you check out these links for any more detailed instructions per step if needed:
Honor 6 Multi-tool
^^^ Full of small and detailed info regarding the Multi-tool and other useful Honor 6 flashing/rooting/unlocking tips.
Huawei Update Extractor tool
^^^ More info on how to use the Update Extractor Tool. It works for H60-L04 .zip/.APP files also even if it is not mentioned in thread.
Full Restoration to Stock ROM
^^^ Only perform steps 1 to 5. Steps 6-7 will GUARANTEE that you loose your data/restore to factory.
Official Huawei Honor 6 download page
^^^ Contains the proper H60-L04 V100R001C00B109SP01 Upgrade Software file to use for the RECOVERY.img and SYSTEM.IMG
that I used for this guide and for the H60-L04 (international version).
Honor 6 H60-L04 OTA Update.zip B370/EMUI.30
^^^ This is the .zip file that is downloaded for the OTA update that I have used. Note: Location I am in: Sweden.
Can be used for the manual/"dload"-folder Local Update function.
Hope this solves the problems for you.
Thanks very much

Sorry to hear that smldmr. The SYSTEM.img really needs to complete. Have you retried from the first step? Skip the RECOVERY.img step and just flash the SYSTEM.img until i succeeds. It should do that in less than 15 minutes in 4-5 sparse sends. If it stops, it may be something with the usb port, some sort of disconnect from your computer. Any other USB devices you have that are causing strange polling or similar. If possible switch to another port, avoid using usb-hubs.

OK.
Perhaps something I missed in my attempt to upgrade....
Perhaps you should do this:
1. Unlock Bootloader and ensure that you have rooted the phone.
2. Start the phone and download a filebrowser like Root Explorer or similar.
3. Ensure that you can remove the folders HWOUC if they are on the SDCARD (0) or even on external SDCARD1.
4. Also check the root folder that there is no "dload" folder from any manual attempts to update. (Delete if there is.).
These steps are to ensure that you do not have a corrupted/failing update left of the update.zip file that is downloaded
and so that a fresh one can be retrieved using the OTA update function in the Settings.
Double check that you do not have any pending/locked updates from Google Play store. If so, ensure that they are installed.
I do not know if there is a size limit on the SDCARD0 (built in 16GB storage) that has to be met.
Please check that you have adequate space left (2gb+) so that the update.zip can unpack itself properly when installing.
Remove any unneccesary/old/large apps that may cause you to loose this and clear out caches to give yourself space.
Then redo the steps to flash RECOVERY.img and SYSTEM.img and attempt a new update with the OTA function.
This may be something I did as I also experimented first trying to do the manual "dload"-folder update before doing my flashing.
after I tried it without my ext-SD Card (64 GB exFat formated SD Card), the system.img was uploaded successfully Now i have EMUI 3.0.
That's great smldmr. I have a regular ext-fs formated sdcard so I didn't anticipate exFat to be an issue. TigerDev,what is your sdcard?

This guide is intended for all those who like me were not able to once update your phone (H60-L04)
here's how I solved it:
1) restore the system (rom, recovery, bootloader)
2) remove the ROOT
3) install the "beta" 3.0
TigerDev, I have the B370 local.prop/build.prop now.
The stock B109SP01 .prop files should become/restore to stock when you flash the SYSTEM.img. Did you test, like smldmr, to do my steps after you have removed your exFat sdcard?
Remove micro-sd card before download OTA and updating.

I've been able to extract all of the Nokia 6 files. I have a TA-1025, so this will be no use for me I'm assuming. Would anyone be interested if I send the unpacked files?
Ok so interesting turn of events....
So I downloaded SUT L1, the same link that was posted earlier in the thread to see if I got the same error about the program being out of date for the firmware. Sure enough....
I got the same error.
So I started looking at the files for the SUT L1 program and the program op first uploaded for flashing firmware and I started noticing a lot of the files looked.... really familiar. They couldn't be the same, could they? There was only a couple of files that weren't the same, the biggest outlier being an exe called SoftwareUpdateTool in the SUT L1 program files. Surely it's not as easy as dragging the exe from one folder to the next ri-?
Yes, yes it is that easy. Can anyone confirm this does anything?

The OST I provided a link for is the most current, up to date flasher for the Nokia 6.
The software op provided was prompting for a network login when started. When the SUT L1 program was linked and suggested I noticed that the two programs (the software provided by op, and SUT L1 provided by another user) are very alike if not the same program. I simply took the launcher from SUT L1, that did not prompt for a network login, and copied it over to the program op provided. It now works and hopefully you can flash .nb0 files through it, though with the current files given I do not have the correct hardware to flash it to and I don't want to risk it! The program I linked is a Nokia 6 firmware flasher that I believe works.
Sorry for the confusion

Yes mate what you told is exactly right the one i provided need a network login to HMD global server for key auth . Once verified only we can flash the firmwares . I uploaded it hoping someone can patch it to get it working without network login . The SUT L1 looks similar to the OST in some ways but I don't know whether they are the same. And at last only way we need is a successful firmware flash regardless of which tool we use . I can only help nyou guys with all official firmware supports for whichever model Nokia release

[HOW-TO][WORKAROUND] Use GApps on the Nubia X

Guys, please check your phone version before downloading the toolkit - dont use 2.19 toolkit on 2.21 phone-version! I don't know why everyone is killing their phone right now! This is not an easy-to-do tutorial! It requires time and at least a bit knowledge. Please read this carefully - use google for the most important words and start after understanding everything! I won't help via PM when you 'bricked' your phone!
Welcome to the WIP Tutorial "How to use GApps on the Nubia X"!
Keep in mind this is a workaround and should not be the official way in how to do it! Im not taking any responsibility if anything goes horribly wrong
Understood? Let's go then!
STEP 1 - Preparation
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
We need to prepare the phone now.
Note: This is mandatory for the rest to work
Unlock the Developer options by going to Settings ►About phone ►Rapidly tapping on the "Build number" field until the phone returns "You are an developer".
Go to Settings ► Other system settings ►Developer options - and change the state of "OEM Unlocking" to ON.
Again in Settings ► Other system settings ►Developer options enable "USB Debugging"
Now, you need to prepare your PC (in short: install adb). Please Google this on your own ("How to install adb on {your OS}").
Alright, we are done with the phone for now.
Let's go to the downloads!
STEP 2 - Downloads

nubia-root-toolkit V219 (Actually the magic behind everything). Source: 百度云, pw: 7m9s - by 绯色玻璃
Link2SD (in order to convert to system later)
GoogleFrameworkInstaller
Great job so far.
Now, we can start doing dev-things !
STEP 3 - Let the magic happen! (ROOT)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Note: this is the part where we change system files. Please continue at your own risk! If you don't know what a root is you should better not do that.
Note: I don't own this toolkit. The source is linked above. I would recommend translating the original page source and reading throgh it. Source
Alrighty then? Damn, ur edgy.
Plug in your phone and wait until it gets recognized by your OS.
Extract the "nubia-root.zip", go into nubia-Root ► nubia-X, and run the "nubia-X_Root-V211.exe" with admin priv.
We don't understand nothing, because it is a chinese source... But according to the original thread, close (X) the first window that appears.
You will now see a window with "(Random text) ROOT"-Button on the right. After you click it, you'll get a log output of what your phone is doing via ADB.
Finished? You will see "Success" at the bottom including some weird characters. Lmao #chineseprograms.
What happened right now?
Well your phone is rooted. The program archived this by flashing a partition on your phone with adb.
First, it unlocked it (see my dev thread for more infos) and after that it flashed the bootimage. In short.
Now boot back into your phone and continue your journey!
STEP 4 - Installing apks on the phone
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Remember all these apk's you have downloaded before?
We are going to use them now.
Make sure your phone is still plugged in. We are using 'adb' now so open up a command-prompt / powershell / bash.
The syntax is the following: "adb install NameOfTheFile.apk" - do this with every downloaded apk. Example: "adb install /home/user/link2sd.apk".
STEP 5 - Install GApps
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now the fun part.
We are going to install the required Google Apps as a normal user.
IMPORTANT: Don't run any of the Google Apps after you see them on your phone. I know you are hyped but its not time to do this right now.
Run the App called "谷歌安装器" (or the app with a playstore-like symbol). You will see a screen with chinese text and a blue button.
Click the blue button - the app will now download every GApp you need. After every download you will be prompted to install the app - confirm this and deny any Nubia tips for "hey you can download a newer app". Just install it like a normal app.
If you encounter the "unknown source"-error, follow the instructions on the device (or google "how to enable install apps from unknown sources").
Thats it! Wohoo.
Well no.
Please restart your phone, before continue!
STEP 6 - Make GApps powerful (using Link2SD)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Well I didn't found a better way as making the GApps System right now.
Because we don't have access to TWRP (right now ;D), this is the way to go.
I assume you have Link2SD installed (if not, go to Step 4 and install Link2SD!).
Open up Link2SD and click on the three dots located in the upper right hand corner.
Click "Search" and type in "Google". You will see a bunch of applications there but we only care about some of them.
We will use the following procedure: Click on the searchresult ► Click on the three dots ► "Convert to system app" ► Confirm. (It might be called somewhat with "system" in it, if you dont find it).
Do this procedure with the following apps: "Google Service Framework", "Google Play Store", "Google Play Service", "Google Contacts Sync", "Google Calendar Sync" and "Google Account Manager".
Done? Restart your device again. (You can do that by clicking on the side-menu of Link2SD ► Reboot ► Reboot.
Step 7 - Enjoy!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Well, you are an official hacker now... Well not really.
But you did something which is not that easy.
If you want to learn more or if you have any questions left contact me on discord (My ID: Captain Teemo#9394).
And if you are happy with the result, consider my time writing this for you and drop me a coffee: https://paypal.me/THeckel - your awesome!
Thanks for reading and enjoy your nubia - as you want!
@Teeemoo, most of the people will do that for first time. It will be good to include:
BE SURE THAT THE PHONE VERSION MATCHES THE VERSION OF THE SOFTWARE!
The described process up it's only of v2.11. For v2.19 and up you need the corresponding tool.
If you ignore that, you risk to soft brick your phone.
1. Magisk and Xposit will be loaded on the phone - do not play at any cost with them (upgrade or stuff). That will put your phone on a boot loop. I know it form personal experience. To fix that it's a bit tricky.
2. When you start the root - be sure that your phone is unlocked. Watch it when it ask permissions.
3. Moving apps with Link2SD can be tricky as well. The app will be moved to /system partition and it's limited. Also if you promote and demote app, doesn't mean that you'll get the same space on /system again. There is option to do that, but need some expertise level.
4. Abut when the GApps to be set at system - after the reboot or before it - I'm not that sure. For me was working the option only after the root. For that reason, preload the Link2SD in advance.
5. v2.19 root reports a virus inside. If you're afraid to open it, then use a sandbox for that purpose (shade sandbox is pretty ok for that purpose).
this is awesome, thank you so much. Let's get you some coffee

Thanks for the great job :good::good::good:
Thanks for the quick reply , i did not have an update to do on the phone, i used the chinese software to root first like mentionned in the tutporial , then phone went into device corrupted ,
now im trying to install the oem firmware on the phone im trying with smart flash tool , but in the nx616j update file has no map.txt file
what can i do to reload oem software on the phone?
There are 2 versions for the software.
One of them has a single button on the right side with strange symbols and "root" in between.
The other one has 2 buttons - one is with "root" and the other "fastboot" in between.
If your phone is in boot-loop and before you do something stupid hard-core.
Reboot the phone in fastboot - long hold power, then when restarts - volume down + power.
You may need few restarts before stabilize it in fastboot.
Then use that second software and press the button which has label "fastboot" in the text.
Restart and you have to be ok
here is th escreen after root

I read but it's not so clear you mentioned something like 2 programs witch program are you referring too?. Also if you saw my picture I think the software must been reinstalled. I normally works with Samsung and having all the software to fix it but Nubia it's something new for me . Thank you very much for your help.
Br_other refers to the original Chinese link (see the tutorial there is the link somewhere).
The new tool includes a fastboot option.
Try to get the new download, otherwise I will reupload it later.
Otherwise:
Your bootloader is unlocked and a wrong bootimage was flashed.
So basically to repair you need to get into fastboot or recovery by pressing (phone must be off) volume down or up with the power button simultaneously.
If this still works you can download the official firmware, extract the boot.img out there and reflash it with ADB.
Basically adb flash boot boot.img
Hello. Thanks so much for the tutorial.
I have finished all the steps, however when I open playstore, stuck at "checking info" status. What could have I done Wong? Or missed any.
Thanks
phone is brick now
Hi guys
let me explain you whats going on with my phone ... But first i would like to thanks @Teeemoo and @br_other they've helping me a lot with my rooting issues but since then my phone is in boot loop mode and i can't use anymore I read everywhere on the net to found a solution but it's seems to not having anything works!!!! To do a short story my phone was working fine with the chinese rom but was useless without google play services. i was waiting every day for a root or global rom to flashed. Last week i receive a OTA software update version 2.19 so i did the update. 2 days ago i saw a post with all the instructions to root the phone and install the google framework with working apps in the main pages, not like the stupid sand box that was terrible to use. I followed the instruction and root the phone . After the root complete the phone reboot in bootloop mode and with no way to recovery my original software. I've posted my issues in this forum and get help from 2 member mentioned above. They told me to found the other root file with fastboot recovery it was really hard to found because the link is not active anymore but i finally found and install. I've put my phone in fast boot mode and try to recovery but i always had the same error message see the pictures attached. I decide to do more researched on the net and i found a way to install the boot loader IMG using ADB command . I try to install but i realize by making some test that my bootloader is not unlocked so i'm not able to install the image . I d'ont know what can i do now but i think i will throw my phone out the windows .......

Because you need to replace the 'boot.img' part with the location of ur boot.img file.
If you don't have the boot image, tell me and I will extract it for you.

How to unlock::
1. Turn on your device and then go to settings --> scroll down to about tablet --> Software Information then tap the Build number 7 or 8 times or until it says you unlocked developer options.
2. Go to developer options and tick OEM UNLOCK and then a warning will pop up and just accept it.
3. Turn off your device, then while holding both volume up and down, connect your device to the pc.
4. A New screen should appear saying stuff about custom roms and stuff, Jut hold and press the up button until it resets. ( THis will erase everything on the tablet)
5. if you're like me and set up the tablet and went straightfoward to unlocking the bootloader, follow this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8/how-to/how-to-bypass-rmm-prenormal-to-install-t3891193
So you wont have any issues flashing roms a nd stuff and dont have to wait 7 days.
6. Now your bootloader should be unlocked! (To enter download/odin mode: Do the same thing, Turn off the device and hold both volume buttons while connecting to the pc then instead of long pressing up, just press up once.)
How to root:
1. Download the firmware for your your tablet, i dont know if i can link the sites but you can google it.
2. Extract only the AP portion of the firmware.
3. Open up the AP portion with 7-zip or winrar
4. extract the boot.img.lz4 out of the AP file
5. Download Lz4 https://github.com/lz4/lz4/releases to your pc corresponding version.
6. Extract the LZ4 to the same area where the boot.img.lz4 is
7. Open command prompt in that folder and then do
Code:
lz4 boot.img.lz4 boot.img
8. Move the boot.img to your tablet, open up magisk manager then clicked Advanced Settings or Advanced, then untick Perserve AVB 2.0/Dm-verity and FIle Encryption then patch it.
9. Take the patched_magisk out of the tablet to your pc and then rename it from magisk_patched.img to boot.img
10. Use 7-zip or winrar and right click on the boot.img and add to archive
11. Select Tar (This is 7-zip havent tried winrar)
12. Once its complete use odin to flash that boot.tar on the AP Section
13. You should now be rooted

If you don’t know what you are doing, I suggest not rooting your device
Hi I'm familiar with magisk and oneplus, motorola, htc etc but not with Samsung. How can I still upgrade my device without losing root?
My tab S6 lite, notifies me about an upgrade but it looks like it hasn't got an a and B psystem partition so you can love update en before reboot just use magisk to patch the bootloader and keep root. Any suggestions?

It’s in the boot loader files, I removed it it’s possible to hide the warning. I’m busy right now maybe later I’ll upload the file to remove it.
Ok. Thank you

You cannot install the OTA updates if you are rooted.
Only solution:
* back up of your apps and data with Titanium Backup
* clean install of the new ROM (flashing with ODIN), once the new firmware is available on samfrew.com
* patch the boot.img with magisk, so you are rooted again an can install Titanium
* restore te apps and data with Titanium Backup
Maybe someone can make an update script once we have a TWRP-recovery.
Leuker kan ik het niet maken...

If you do not buy new devices for sometimes years and are not a native English speaker it can be very hard to figure out what is being written in abbreviations.

Hopefully the picture shows however its just a SS of my Root Checker app showing that it is indeed possible to root the tab 6 lite (or at least SM-P610). Since there are plenty of easy to follow guides regarding how to unlock the boot loader for this device i'm going to skip past that part and jump into what actually gave me 12+ hours of frustration.
Once the boot loader is unlocked it is time to find the stock firmware for this device (which I feel its necessary to mention that there are 2 that are almost identical save for literally one number).
1. XAR-P610XXU1BTI3-20200924123941 <---- WRONG!
2. XAR-P610XXU2BTI3-20200924123941 <----- RIGHT!
once you have the correct firmware as seen above and its downloaded onto your computer open the compressed file (I used WinRAR) and you should see 4 different files.
1. AP_P610XXU2BTI3_CL19529942_QB34299355_REV00_user_low_ship_meta_OS10.tar.md5
2. BL_P610XXU2BTI3_CL19529942_QB34299355_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5
3. HOME_CSC_OMC_OXM_P610OXM2BTI3_CL19529942_QB34299355_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5
4. CSC_OMC_OXM_P610OXM2BTI3_CL19529942_QB34299355_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5
The file needed in the next step is the one I have listed as number 1 (beginning with AP). Select just that one and extract it to your desktop. At this point you are going to need a compression software (I used 7Zip which is free). Once you have 7Zip installed right click on the AP file that's on your desktop and just below the open with option you should see an option that says 7 Zip with and extendable sidebar. On that same sidebar the first option you should see is "Open Archive" which you will want to select.
You should now be looking at a window with 8 files and 1 folder however the only file you should be concerned with is the one named "boot.img.lz4". **this is where it gets kinda funky if your not overly familiar with this process**
At this point you will want to go to github.com/lz4/lz4/releases and scroll down a little until you see a download link for a file "lz4_win64_v1_9_2.zip". Once downloaded open the zip and extract the entire folder to your desktop (it should be named LZ by default).
Open the LZ folder and take the "boot.img.lz4" file you extracted earlier and copy it into the LZ folder. Once copied simply Drag and drop "boot.img.lz4" onto the .exe called "lz4". If done correctly a new file should suddenly appear in the same folder that is now simply named "boot" but you will notice that it is now in a Disk Image File format.
(at the end of the guide ill put a URL for a video which shows exactly what I just described here, please follow the video if there is any confusion).
At this point you are going to connect your tab 6 lite to your computer and if it hasn't been done already turn on USB debugging from the developers option and install any drivers needed. Once your tablet and computer are able to communicate (i.e you can open your tablet as a drive on your computer) you will want to copy the "boot" file from the previous step into someplace you will remember (I used my downloads folder). Once onto the tablet you will now download and open Magisk Manager and proceed to patch only this one specific file that you have copied over.
Once patched you should see a copy of the boot file in your downloads folder which will now be named "Magisk_Patched". take this newly patched file and copy in onto your computers desktop.
Rename "Magisk_Patched" to "boot.img" and then right click the file. Again you will want to hover over the 7 Zip option however this time you are going to select the option "add to archive..." which is about halfway down the list. Once selected a new window will come up which will allow you to set the format to .tar. with the name set to boot.tar and .tar selected as the format hit the OK button and on your desktop a new WinRAR Archive file should appear named boot.tar.
Now is when you can finally boot your tablet into Odin mode and open Odin as an Administrator (I used the latest version 3.14.4). Once Odin recognizes your device select the AP button and select the newly created boot.tar as your input (The file location should look similar to this C:\Users\Owner\Desktop\boot.tar provided you saved everything on your desktop like I did).
Once loaded into Odin select the options tab and UN-select Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time before hitting the Start option.
At this point if you did everything correct you should see the boot file being flashed onto the device. Once completed with no errors boot the device into the normal stock recovery and wipe the Cache and then factory reset the device. On the next boot up you should see in addition to the normal "boot loader is unlocked blah blah blah" another message that says you have an illegitimate copy of android on your device and that it may not function or update properly.
Just ignore the message and after a few moments the device should continue to boot into the initial set up page. Work your way through the set up and go online to re-download Magisk Manager. This time when you open the app for the first time it will give you a dialog box that says that the Magisk Operation is incomplete and will ask you if you want to complete it. Agree to complete the process and it will auto run in the background for a moment before it shows completed.
It was finally at this point that I ran Root checker and was met with the very first picture in my post. The biggest Issue I found in all of this was the fact that aside from one single comment in a post here on xda, nowhere else does it explain that you need to extract the boot file, convert it first into an img, THEN patch it, THEN flash it..... smh I cant tell you how many times I wiped my device and had to flash the stock recovery until I got this. I hope this helps you guys moving forward and doesn't just cause more confusion but here are all the links to the videos and files I referenced in order that I mentioned them!

Question Anybody knows when could we root?

Hello guys. Does anybody know when would we be able to root our beloved Flip 4? I haven't seen any thread for it. Is there something that's blocking the devs from discovering a root method? Just trying to understand.
Thanks!

Probably just need to wait for John Woo (developer of magisk) to update it for the fold and flip 4 series. You can try asking in the magisk forums if anyone knows anything.
if you can unlock the bootloader (not possible on the US versions) download the stock firmware and transfer the AP file to your phone.
then install magisk and patch the AP file, transfer back and odin flash the patched file and you should have root.

Well unfortunately I'm not that expert as to discover how to unlock bootloader myself. But I guess the expert guys could help us if they would like to.

if you can get into the development options in settings you should be able to see OEM unlock toggle but be warned if you choose it it will wipe all your data..!
1) go into settings/about phone
2) then software information tap on build number 7 times
3) go back to settings and you should see development options at the bottom
4) if the OEM unlock is there choose it and it will reboot to the bootloader screen
5) it will then ask you do you really want to unlocck it, if you choose to yes it wipe all data and you have to start from scratch re-installing everything
6) download the latest firmware and extract it to a new folder on your PC
7) copy the AP file to your phone
8) download and install the latest Magisk apk
9) in Magisk choose the top option 'install' then select patch a file
10) after patching transfer the file back to your PC (it can be found in the download file on your phone)
11) download and install Odin on your PC
12) open Odin and put the AP patched file in the AP slot and the CSC file in the CSC slot
13) after flashing and rebooted install the Magisk app again and it should confirm being rooted after Magisk reboots the phone

I'm not able to get past the step #3 on this phone, its locked down.
Can access recovery but the "wipe data" option is removed.
Any advice? It's a demo unit with an IMEI number I kinda got scammed into buying, trying ot figure out if its a lost cause.

I own a Flip 4 from Austria and can confirm your described method works, except I had to use CSC —> CSC instead of the Home CSC, cause it didn’t boot before.
Google Wallet (ex Pay) works with Magisk Props module as well!

Sure it will. Just pay $150 and let some unknown asshole remote into your device.
This info came out today, but I have the unlocked version that I bought directly from samsung (U1) and I can confirm that I cannot "OEM Unlock" my Flip4.

good evening @
shreyas.kukde @​jdenman03 @​entropism @​beanbean50 @​Plazza86 @​Jmoney55 @​ankur079 @​Philnicolls89​, I have just bought the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 in Europe (France) and indeed to ROOT it you have to put the Tarmd5 AP file in the AP box and the CSC file (and not Home CSC) in the CSC box to that everything works fine, when the phone restarts, you have to reinstall Magisk and everything is OK. Thanks for this tutorial, hope it helps other people.
