Root Huawei Mate 20

Hi,
I'm looking for a solution to root Huawei Mate 20. I couldn't find much on web search about this topic.
I am also not able to find a way to install TWRP or unlock boot loader.
Any ideas?

My phone got an update about a week ago. The details didn't mention Anything about boot loader unlocking but when I checked after the update, there was the ability to unlock the bootloader.
I have already opened the developed settings since november but the bootloader unlock option was greyed out and could not be turned on. I read a post from a different thread that his phone recently got an update with the option to turn on the bootloader unlock option. I have been regularly checking for update since I read that post and so last week I finally got it. I am now able to toggle the switch but I did not finish the process because I want to make sure it doesn't cause any warranty issues. I have been a Samsung user and I am very familia with the "warranty void 0x1" issue so I always waited until my warranty was over before rooting my phone. That way everythung has been tried and tested before I take a leap. If you do get the update please post your experience in unlocking the bootloader and eventually rooting your phone.

Maybe try kingroot? If it gets the job done on the pro version it might do it here as well.
Found it: https://www.techdroidtips.com/install-custom-rom-huawei-mate-20-cwm-twrp/ https://www.techdroidtips.com/root-huawei-mate-20/

patch recovery_ramdisk.img in latest magisk manager canary build, and flash the patched_boot.img to recovery_ramdisk through fastboot - voila, you are rooted now, you just have to boot to recovery afterwards (will start to system anyway).
I could also upload my patched recovery_ramdisk.img if you want. Would work for you aswell.
Regards

Hi please create a new thread how to root the phoneee?

Oem unlock is back :cyclops:

Mate please help us.
EDIT:
sorry, now found your post: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-20/how-to/guide-manual-updating-firmware-t3892686
so only way to get root it's paying for bootloader code?

Did you test it on EMUI 9.1 Roms?
Seems it doesn't work. I tried patching using the Canary build mentioned above and even used 19.0.
Neither of them worked, The end results is a bootloop.
Any ideas ?

There is info about root EMUI 9.1 for mate 20X on XDA. "[GUIDE] Root AL00 EMUI 9.1"- https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-20-x/how-to/guide-root-al00-emui-9-1-t3938483. You need Ramdisk for your device and patche it. Also it is possible to extract Ramdisk from full firmware. Now i have a problem to download full firmware for my phone - HMA-L29 9.1.0.310(C10E10R2P1). I tried https://support.halabtech.com/index.php?a=downloads&b=folder&id=35991 but it is impossible to download zip file. Is there another way to get this firmware?

Look this thread, the firmare was upload in google drive.

Thank you! Downloaded from https://support.halabtech.com/index.php?a=downloads&b=file&c=download&id=149496 at last.
Now I have root root for HMA-L29, 9.1.0.300(C10E10R2P1) through Magisk 19.4 (Magisk Manager 7.3.3 ). I had root for 9.0.0.245 with the same Magisk. Downloaded firmware HMA-L29 9.1.0.310(C10E10R2P1) from https://support.halabt…e&c=download&id=149496 , extracted RECOVERY_RAMDIS.img, copied to mate 20 9.0.0.245, patched by Magisk. File is magisk_patched9.1.img. It can be downloaded from https://drive.google.c…Jq_6WNOxgdY5nK4VxLHE86. Then flashed RECOVERY_RAMDIS.img from 9.0.0.245 by adb, updated to 9.1.0.300(C10E10R2P1) and flashed magisk_patched9.1.img by adb. That's all.

Could you give a short tutorial of how you did that? Did you have to unlock bootloader?

I guess that unlocked bootloader is required to flash boot image, but I hope to be wrong

Yes, I have unlocked bootloader.

Where did you get the bootloader unlock codes? HW no longer support to release it...

I got unlock code on this forum from Crys18 on 30.03.2019 for $6.

Thanks a lot for uploading this! I managed to flash it and root my device but now the wifi isn't working. I cleared the cache with TWRP but that didn't resolve the issue. Flashing back the original boot image made the wifi work again.

ok, perhaps it depends on BA (EU) or AA (global) ROM version? however you can boot the rooted one, install a downloaded version of magisk20 via magisk manager to patch your own kernel directly.

I flashed the 4.14.117-perf+.img that you uploaded and then I booted in TWRP and flashed my original stock boot image. While still in TWRP, I flashed the zip of Magisk and then I rebooted. That got it working. So I'm rooted now. Thanks for sending me the image. I appreciate it!

@Heelixx
Can you explain to me how important a magisk boot patched is? Did you leave Pie for 10? What's the procedure?

I was rooted on 10.0 and then I upgraded to 10.0.1
There is a procedure for upgrading to 10.0.1 and still keeping root. I wasn't aware of this and after I got the update, I restarted my device and ended up without root access.
A Magisk patched boot image is important for getting your device rooted.
If you're asking for the procedure to root your device, then you can follow this link which explains it, https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-7/how-to/guide-how-to-flash-android-10-twrp-t3964131

If you know there is a way to flash the OTA and keep twrp+root and that you don't need Magisk, why are you asking for help here?
P.S.: Want to point us to your source of information? I'm sure just about everybody in this forum would be excited to know how.

Flash the ota and then boot to fastboot. And flash this boot image.
fastboot flash boot boot-v9-root24.img
Also can do it in recovery or partition manager off play store. Here's a copy of the app to.
The img works on OS 11s and 12s. I dual boot so it's a orangefox twrp with a magisk 24.x. and probably not the original kernel because OS 12 and some rom11s don't work well with stock kernels. Anyways hope this helps

If you're on OOS 11 then you can use TWRP.
You cannot use TWRP on OOS 12.

I'm on android 11 but hardware version says 13

Is there any reason to use the boot.img over just twrp flashing magisk? Seems a little complicated to me and also there's no boot.ing for the kb2007

If TWRP wasn't available, then patching boot and then flashing is the only way to root.
What do you mean by "hardware version is 13"? Screenshot?

Yeah I'm on 11 nvm.
Do u know where I can find patched boot.img for the tmobile kb2007 model if twrp don't work?
And if it does I can just flash the magisk zip and be rooted

No ideas about finding a patched boot image.
In TWRP you can just flash the Magisk APK.

The T-Mobile to EU conversion lets you unlock bootloader without the unlock token from OnePlus website if you don't want to wait.

Let's you unlock bootloader like a normal OnePlus 8t after it's converted.
