This guide is for those who are on unlocked bootloader/custom roms and want to go back to realme UI 1.0 and relock
Needless to say, me, and the makers of realme flash-tool and TWRP/other recoveries wouldn't be responsible for any damage caused to your device. Having said that, this method has been tested and should be fine for realme UI 1.0.
First things first, if you are on custom rom or on rooted stock rom you need to revert to unmodified stock rom.
*Warning :-Make absolutely sure that you are not relocking by flashing an older version, always flash the current or newer i:e If you unlocked while being on version A.19 make sure to flash A.19 and/or newer versions and not A.17. While I'm not sure if this will result in a brick or not and have no intentions of trying, this may result in a hardbrick.*
Links to firmware (RMX2061/EUxxxxxxx.ozip). Search for realme 6pro from the list.
IN.- https://www.realme.com/in/support/software-update
EU.- https://www.realme.com/eu/support/software-update
*Do not lock bootloader while on custom rom.*
*Do not lock bootloader if you're rooted.*
*Do not lock bootloader with any custom partitions even vbmeta with disabled verity and verification.*
IF YOU DO SO YOU'LL END UP WITH A BRICK WHICH CAN ONLY BE FIXED AT A SERVICE CENTER. YOUR PHONE WILL DISPLAY AN ERROR MESSAGE SAYING PARTITONS ARE CORRUPT/DAMAGED.
Backup your stuff before proceeding.
There are three ways to revert to stock:
1. Using RFT (Realme Flashtool) by @sayaoks :-
Instructions provided on the thread.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/re.../tool-rtf-realme-flash-tool-to-flash-t4144969
2. Using TWRP (use the latest from the recovery section).
*Wipe>Format Data> type yes> format
*Reboot>reboot to recovery
*Install > Select .ozip> Swipe to flash
*Reboot
Do not select disable-vbmeta or avb_patcher or anything of that sort.
Recommended-
https://forum.xda-developers.com/realme-6-pro/development/recovery-twrp-recovery-t4171759
3. Using stock recovery.
From system:- To flash using stock recovery, download and put the .ozip in the root of storage and from realme file manager tap on it. It will start Flashing in the stock recovery.
From recovery:- Download and put the .ozip in the root of storage, then reboot to recovery.
Your Language> Install from storage> enter password(only if you have one)> Phone/SDcard and then select the .ozip.
Any custom recovery.img/boot.img should now be replaced with stock.
After flashing is successful and the device has booted to stock rom reboot to the bootloader.
If you want to be extra careful, and used RFT or TWRP/Custom Recovery to flash stock rom, you can flash the fw again using stock recovery after the phone has booted up(steps mentioned above).
Connect the phone to PC and enter command
Code:
fastboot flashing lock
Now on the phone select lock bootloader with the help of volume up and power buttons.

I'm on RMX2063_11_A35 I can't find an update more recent than RMX2061EU_11.A.26 Can I use this method and update via OTA and then lock the bootloader?

A35 is the latest version for IN firmware. Latest for EU is A28, which is up on realme EU website.
If you want A35 firmware just visit the Indian downloads page.
And yes you can update to a newer version than whatever you unlocked on and then lock on the newer version. Make sure everything is just stock meaning no twrp,patched boot and/or custom recovery.
Don't have a brick to use the rmx2061 model? instead of device 2063, what method do you recommend.

Well I know someone having Indonesian/Indian model and locking on the EU firmware. It didn't brick but not sure what will happen in the future when an OTA drops.
Lock on the same firmware as the device, like eu device with eu fw and so on (just to be safe).
You can use any methods to get to stock, just to be extra sure, when the phone boots up after flashing stock and before locking, put the fw in the root storage of the phone and re-flash again with the stock recovery. And then proceed to lock.
thanks to carry out the process and start correctly, I got an update of only 300 mb ls which gave me an error, but soon the same RMX2063a1135 came out but 3.5 gb which if it was installed and now I am as I started, without root or magisk, The question is, since the most recent was installed via ota, can I close the bootloader?

You can use RUI 2.0 to lock. Just be sure that all partitions are stock. Use the .ozips made by @ctapchuk

This is still Android 5.1.1 with a 3.10.28 kernel. No Marshmallow
I'm a bit amazed by the continuous support from OPPO, and especially the security patches integrated in those updates. I was not expecting this from this brand. This is part of what's preventing me from completely switching to LineageOS. This is my only smartphone and I need it to just work.
Now I wish I can unroot my phone, lol
You can, I did it.
The simplest method:
- copy ColorOS & Project Spectrum zips provided by OPPO
- boot in fastboot mode
- Install stock recovery with fastboot
- Reboot to recovery
- Install Project Spectrum
- Reboot to recovery
- Install ColorOS
You should be stock, relocked.

Thank you!
But where can I get stock recovery?
You can extract recovery.img from the ColorOS zip.
If someone were to flash this via twrp. When they have followed this thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/op...pdates-rooted-unlocked-devices-t3395034/page8
They would loose twrp and lose he unlocked bootloader correct?
This zip is only for OPPO*recovery, not for TWRP. It needs to be modified. If modified, I don't think recovery or unlocked state would change as recovery is not included in the original zip.

The update zip does contain and flash the locked bootloader(emmc_appsboot.mbn) and also the update zips never contain a recovery.img but do have a script(install_recovery.sh) and patches that patch the latest recovery onto latest boot.img and flash it to recovery. So, yes, flashing it will lock everything down. Modifying it to remove bootloader and recovery is easy enough( I'm happy to do it) but it will also check the current build version on the phone before flashing and refuse to flash unless the rom has been updated to the "896" level, which I have never seen an update zip to go from 894 to 896 (891-894 is the newest update I have seen posted till now). There is a new download of full rom available for the 896 version which could also be modified to install from twrp without bootloader and recovery but it does require a full wipe. If enough people want it, I guess it would be good to have a more up to date full clean install of colouros.
Do you think it's worth the effort?

It would be nice if we ever go back to color os. But don't rush it. Take your time. Its not a big rush. But I would rather the time be spent in lineage first. Up to you

If you don't have a full stock rom on your phone and you lock your device you will brick it. So you need to have a full stock rom ( you can get the full stock rom here: http://en.miui.com/a-234.html and you can also flash it with this tool) and then you can lock the bootloader.
P.s. is not needed to write in all thread about the tool, one is enough i have instant notification mail enabled.

I should have read this beforehand but I did it the same way as always. Magisk, restore images, OTA updates, magisk install to inactive slot and I get this and I can't get it to go away and it didn't update either. Root is gone as well but it didn't update.
Edit: it fixed itself after the 3rd attempted update. Lost root but that's an easy. I don't know why it did it. Leaving for anyone else that might have this issue

so, what I (a newbie to rooting without TWRP) should understand is that if I am on stock I just have to unlock bootloader and flash the patched .img?

Just updated through updated stock image. Thanks for all your efforts
In my case I have found that it is not necessary to flash the stock boot image in order to update. I simply installed the update, rebooted to bootloader, booted the patched boot.img (not flashed), and installed Magisk to my boot partition from there. That way you don't permanently mismatch your ROM from your boot partition in case you are not using global ROM (which is the case for me). I don't know if the boot partition actually differs between the ROMs but this feels cleaner
Won't let me download the OTA after going back to stock bootloader. I have my CN OP9 cross flashed to global. I keep getting Couldn't Update Installation Problem. Guess i'll wait for Oxygen Update.

if it detects that your device is rooted, it will switch to downloading the full update instead of the incremental one. Maybe it is different on global ROM, but that's what worked for me
Thanks, updated from 11.2.4.4 with the stock boot img i found in the other thread with this guide.
Hello Community,
I wanted to make this post because there is some wrong information or insufficient information regarding that switching regions betweens roms requires you to unlock the bootloader.
I found a way it works, I updated from MIUI 12.5.2.0 EEA to 12.5.4.0 (then to 12.5.5.0 ota) Global Stable using XiaomiToolV2 (unofficial Tool).
These are the following Steps:
1. Download XiaomiToolV2
2. I did download the rom from https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/miui/vayu/ (while the tool checks the files integrity, download with your own risk)
3. Enable Developer Options and then USB Debugging
4. Open XiomiToolV2 and select your device first, then follow the instructions and after that boot to recovery and select MiAssistant
5. In XiomiToolV2 select Local MIUI/Rom Option and add your file (Incase it doesnt allow you to add the file put the in file name and open)
6. It should verify the file now and pushes it on the device (this can take a while, be patient and dont restart the device on your own
After reaching 100% the phone should reboot automatically to the system
I hope it did work out for you
Hi @Areasu, when you switch regions using this method, does it wipe your data? I relock bootloader using std oem method after flashing rom of different region, data is always wiped.

My data wasnt wiped it installed like an update
Non-stop error.
So you do not need to unlock the bootloader? I understand that XiomiToolV2 is to be installed on the computer and the phone should be connected to the computer, right?

Yes, but in the tool the option Official Xiaomi Rom it tells me *Requirements: Unlocked Bootloader*. But when I use Local ZIP File method it works.
I see you had ghost touch issue, some people said it disappeared on 12.5.5.0
I still have this touch problem. Though it had been quiet for the past week
I understand that you have updated MIUI 12.5.2.0 EEA to 12.5.4.0 with xiaomitoolv2 and the update to 12.5.5.0 appeared on the phone just like that?
It may also be possible to download 12.5.4.0 Global to the phone and install via ota through the option select the update package

Thank you so much for posting this, it was really fast and easy to understand. I really didn't want to be on EU but thought I'd have to unlock bootloader and wipe my data so I'm glad this worked. (^‿^)
Ps: I used the recovery rom not the fastboot rom maybe you should specify what you used.

Ps: I used the recovery rom not the fastboot rom maybe you should specify what you used.

Okay from what I understand fastboot might wipe your data so I just wanted to make sure people don't get the wrong one and lose all their data.

I think yes, recovery didnt wipe my data. Im not even sure if fastboot roms from other regions will allow flash. This guide is only for flashing recovery roms from different regions. (google says fastboot rom requires unlocked bootloader)

Hello Community,
I wanted to make this post because there is some wrong information or insufficient information regarding that switching regions betweens roms requires you to unlock the bootloader.
I found a way it works, I updated from MIUI 12.5.2.0 EEA to 12.5.4.0 (then to 12.5.5.0 ota) Global Stable using XiaomiToolV2 (unofficial Tool).
These are the following Steps:
1. Download XiaomiToolV2
2. I did download the rom from https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/miui/vayu/ (while the tool checks the files integrity, download with your own risk)
3. Enable Developer Options and then USB Debugging
4. Open XiomiToolV2 and select your device first, then follow the instructions and after that boot to recovery and select MiAssistant
5. In XiomiToolV2 select Local MIUI/Rom Option and add your file (Incase it doesnt allow you to add the file put the in file name and open)
6. It should verify the file now and pushes it on the device (this can take a while, be patient and dont restart the device on your own
After reaching 100% the phone should reboot automatically to the system
I hope it did work out for you

I followed your instructions and changed from EEA to GLOBAL using the latest, RECOVERY, official ROM for my POCO X3 PRO.
Thank you!
Are Google apps and Playstore working properly?
Has anyone tried this method to switch from global to Indonesian rom?
Hi everyone! I am getting an ERROR in my Poco X3 Pro
I tried to do the same using XiaomiTool V20.7.28 (latest), from 12.5.4.0 EEA to 12.5.7.0 GLOBAL as the updater suggested. But for some reason I am getting this adb "sideload error status 1" like this image. My battery is 98%. Any ideas?

This thread going to guide you on how you can root Realme GT NEO 2 Device with RUI 3.0 installed.
This boot image is fresh, and it's patched for root access.
Caution: Before flashing, you need to have your bootloader unlocked, for bootloader unlocking, go to this link and follow the procedure to get approval and unlock your device bootloader.
Link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/bootloader-unlock-realme-gt-neo-2-rmx3370-all-variants.4391679/
After you get approval, you are ready to root your device!
For this tutorial, I gonna use a windows device.
WARNING!
I am not responsible for anything. proceed at your own risk. Rooting or Unlocking the Bootloader voids the device warranty, keep it in your mind.
STEP - ONE
Only follow this step, if you get approval for the bootloader, and you didn't unlock this device or your flashing environment needs to be configured. You need to visit the following link to set up your environment for flashing a custom boot image.
Link: https://njpsmultimedia.blogspot.com/2022/04/realme-gt-neo-2-bootloader-unlock.html you just need to follow the video tutorial on this website.
STEP - TWOIt's assumed that your environment is properly configured. Let's flash this boot image to root your device.
Download this zip file from here https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Xk1yBp5EDCZbl3i3jMtOhjfaVtTCQqYB/view?usp=sharing and copy the boot.img file to platform-tools folder.
Then open the terminal and cd to the platform-tools folder.
Then, shut down your device and hold the vol up + vol down + power button together to boot this device into fastboot mode.
First, you need to run
Code:
fastboot devices
to check if your device is properly connected to the bootloader interface. If it shows something then your device is properly connected, If not, try to install the device driver, change the cable, or boot into the bootloader mode again.
If your device is connected properly, then you will see a screen like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"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"
}
And then run this command:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Then,
Code:
fastboot reboot
You are done! Congratulation.
Note: This method was tested with Realme UI 3.0 android 12 on GT NEO 2. Do not try this method on RUI 2.0 or on other devices.

Do you lose all data ? On the root part the bootloader is already unlocked

- it is necessary to have the bootloader unlocked before flash (instructions on how to unlock the bootloader can be found in the video in the post above or here on the forum)
- after flash just install Magisk manager
no data loss, tested and functional

If your bootloader is already unlocked, no data loss. but If your device bootloader is not unlocked, then unlocking your device data will be erased.
Do we flash magisk or other way of root ?

You need not flash anything extra than flashing customized boot.img. Just simply follow this step and your device will be rooted.

In my case, all is fine.
You can try backup data and then reset your device through recovery.

After the OTA update, you may need to flash this boot image again.

Thanks for the reply . Any way I reverted back to previous state by flashing stock boot image and firmeware. Now everthing works fine. I will think about rooting later..
Removed root and updated to RMX3370_11_C.04 is it safe to reflash root image on this version?

I just tried this and it worked for me...
Meanwhile I realised that my wifi and my phone don't work anymore... I have no idea if this boot image is the cause.

No solution so far. I think first everything was fine, after flashing the magisk boot image it's gone worse... But I'm not sure.
I do not recommend updating on RMX3370_11_C.0. After flashing boot image (without Magisk) wifi no longer working.
I flashed clean firmware and lock bl i am done moding this device only adb debloat.. And after clean flash netflix still wont open login screen...
