Guide to root (again) my OnePlus 7 Pro on 10.0.5

Hi you all. Few months ago I followed a guide to root my OP7 Pro. So after half morning of following tutorial, after some trouble I succeeded to install a custom recovery and than root and flash magisk. Two weeks ago I received a notification for a new software update (10.0.5). I downloaded and installed it and.. I lost the root.
Now, if there a way I can follow to re-root again my 7 Pro on 10.0.5? Can you advise me some link to follow? Thanks slot, Diego

Use this tool, it works like a charm and you just have to click here and there, and it's done. Just activate usb debugging and oem unlocking, connect the phone, start the tool.
Use check there to see your device in the list, then hit recovery flasher and device rooter.
In the next window pick twrp for the android version you're using "3.3.1 unified android q op7p" for android 10, pie for android 9; also check the "root after boot" checkbox, and select the lastest version of magisk from the dropdown list below
And then hit Flash and root; and wait it out until it says like "press any key to continue" in the command prompt that apears afterwards.
DO not try this if it seems that something doesn't work right...either with the tool or with the phone.

[ROOT] [GUIDE] How to root UMIDIGI A11 Pro Max

*PLEASE BE SURE TO READ EVERYTHING BEFORE ROOTING YOUR PHONE!!!*
This guide will help you to root your UMIDIGI A11 Pro Max. Aside from my own knowledge, I used many sources (and I’ll add the respective references, of course) to create this specific manual. In that regard, I organized the information in many sections due to its size.
Also, please be aware this is a guide for UMIDIGI A11 Pro Max, not UMIDIGI A11 Pro, or UMIDIGI A11, or UMIDIGI A13, or any similar model. You’re free to adapt this guide to a different UMIDIGI model though, so you can copy nearly everything here (with the necessary changes) if you want to.
DISCLAIMER: ALL I WROTE HERE WORKED PERFECTLY WITH MY UMIDIGI A11 PRO MAX, BUILD NUMBER UMIDIGI_A11_PRO_MAX_V1.0_20220108, WHICH I ROOTED WITH MAGISK 24.3, BUT I’M NOT A PROFFESIONAL. THIS MEANS I CANNOT GUARANTEE YOU THIS WILL ALWAYS WORK WITH ANOTHER BUILD NUMBER OR MAGISK VERSION, ALTHOUGH I HONESTLY THINK THERE SHOULDN’T BE ANY PROBLEM. FINALLY, ROOTING IS YOUR DECISION, AND IT'S OWN YOUR RESPONSIBILITY IN CASE YOU BRICK YOUR DEVICE, AS I’M NOT COERCING YOU TO DO IT.
With that said, let’s begin!
Things you need to know:​• Currently, there is no custom recovery (like TWRP) for this smartphone. This will make the whole process a bit more complex, but it’s still possible to get root.
• While I think the rooting itself doesn’t void your warranty, the previous and unavoidable step—unlocking the bootloader—does.
• Another thing about unlocking the bootloader: the process will make a FACTORY RESET to your device, so better have a back-up ready.
• We’ll use Magisk, so it’ll still be possible to get FOTA, also named OTA, updates. I’ll elaborate more at the end of this guide.
• As I said, I’m not responsible If you brick your device, but I can give you a hand! (More details just below.)
Preparations:​• Identify your build number to find your stock ROM online. Go to “Settings”, now go to the bottom to “About phone”, and then go again to the bottom and you will find something like this: “Build number: UMIDIGI_A11_PRO_MAX_V1.0_20220108”.
• Go to your PC and download your stock ROM in UMIDIGI’s official forum. Remember there are main releases’ variations for specific regions (like Europe), so be sure to check if EACH LETTER of the names match. If you made a mistake, you’ll be trapped in a boot loop (bricked device). Here is the forum:

*THIS STOCK ROM IS NECESSARY TO UNBRICK YOUR DEVICE BY GETTING A FRESH INSTALATION IN CASE OF EMERGENCY, SO PLEASE DO NEVER DELETE IT, PRESERVE IT EVEN AFTER YOU GET ROOT. IF YOU MESSED UP READING THIS GUIDE OR LATER, READ YOUR RESPECTIVE THREAD TO UNBRICK YOUR PHONE. FROM HERE ONWARDS, YOU’LL BE IN THEIR HANDS*
• Open the RAR and extract vbmeta.img and boot.img (DO NEVER DELETE THE ORIGINALS).
• Now you need to unlock “Developer options” in your device, as the basic permissions aren’t enough to root. Go to: Settings > About phone > Status. Now go to the bottom and tap “Build number” seven or eight times until a message saying that you’re now a developer appears.
• Go to Settings > System > Advanced > Developer options. Active them if they’re “Off”, now activate “OEM unlocking” and “USB debugging”. This will allow you to: move files between your phone and PC, and use your PC to modify your phone (explained just below).
Installing Android Debug Bridge (ADB) on your PC:​This “simple” interface, as it uses a terminal window (like CMD or PowerShell in Windows), will allow you to control your device from a computer by using methods hidden to simple mortals (mostly for their own security, because the average user could easily brick their device by accident).
The process to do this may vary depending on your OS (Windows 10, Windows 11, Linux, etc.) or even between different updates or drivers of said OS, so I cannot give you specific steps. You can use this guide, which I’m sure is better than anything I could ever write about this topic:
https://www.xda-developers.com/install-adb-windows-macos-linux/
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Feel free to search for all the guides you need until installing ADB. Take your time, we’re not doing anything that could brick your device if you make a mistake… yet.
Unlocking the bootloader:​• Make sure ADB is correctly installed or you won’t be able to do anything from this point onwards.
• Remember, this specific step will make a FACTORY RESET to your device, so better have a back-up ready. You need this extra permission to root your phone, or install a custom recovery or ROM if you want (sadly there is neither of them to date).
• Connect your device to your PC.
• Open your ADB terminal on your PC and write:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
*If doesn’t work, write ./adb instead adb, or the variation your terminal uses, and keep using it from now on. Your device will reboot and now you’ll be in fastboot mode (make sure to read the small > FASTBOOT mode… message on the bottom left corner of your device).
• Now the time has come, after this you’ll have a factory reset. Write:
Code:
fastboot flashing unlock
*Again, if fastboot doesn’t work, use ./fastboot, etc.) and a new message will appear on your device. Read it, it won’t say anything new if you’re with this guide, and press the Volume up button to unlock your bootloader.
• To reboot your device, write:
Code:
fastboot reboot
While rebooting, you will read this just below UMIGIDI’s logo:
Orange state:
Your device has been unlocked and can’t be trusted
Your device will boot in 5 seconds
*Spoiler: it won’t reboot in 5 seconds, but 1 or 2 minutes.
• Congratulations! Now you have a brand-new unlocked phone! No more factory resets (unless you brick your phone), so feel free to make the initial configuration.

Patching images:​• Now this process is the rooting itself, time to get Magisk, the rooting tool and the future manager of your root permission (under your orders, of course). Download its latest version on your device and install it.
• Connect your device to your PC and send boot.img (you extracted it at the beginning of this tutorial) to your smartphone and open Magisk app. On the Magisk section, tap “Install” and then “Select and patch a file” and search for your boot.img to patch it.
• The installation (flashing) will continue in a terminal-like screen. Once finished, the direction of the patched file will appear, along an All done! message.
• Now send this new patched file and the vbmeta.img (you extracted it at the beginning of this tutorial) to your ADB folder in your computer.
• Now turn off your phone and hold Power button and Volume up button for 5 seconds, and select Fastboot Mode.
• Open your ADB window and DO NOT CLOSE IT BEFORE FLASHING THE NEXT 2 FILES, OR YOU'LL BRICK YOUR DEVICE:
THE FIRST FILE: Write the following command:
Code:
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash boot (insert here the name of your magisk patched file, don’t forget to add the “.img” extension)
Example: My file is called magisk_patched-24300_UuPmm.img, so I wrote:
Code:
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash boot magisk_patched-24300_UuPmm.img
Don’t forget, write ./fastboot or any command’s variation you’ve been using so far.
THE SECOND FILE: Write the following command:
Code:
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
• Write this and you’re done:
Code:
fastboot reboot
Enjoy your rooted UMIDIGI A11 Pro Max!
This section was based on these guides:
https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/install.html

Click to expand...

About getting FOTA/OTA updates (PLEASE READ THIS TOO OR YOU MAY LOSE YOUR ROOT SOMEDAY!!!):​First, what are FOTA/OTA updates? In short, you could say their function is similar to Windows updates. Usually, rooting with alternatives to Magisk, or installing a custom recovery, prevents you from getting them.
This a rooting guide so, while I won’t help you to getting those updates, I can still give you this comprehensive guide:
https://www.thecustomdroid.com/install-ota-update-rooted-android-device-guide/
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Lastly, the true reason I wrote this is to alert you that even if you don’t care about FOTA/OTA you still NEED TO DEACTIVATE THE AUTOMATIC UPDATES, otherwise you may lose your root someday or cause problems to your phone (you can search online for the technical reasons of this if you want). From now on, if you want updates, you’ll do it manually.
To deactivate them, go to Settings > System > Advanced > Developer options and turn off "Automatic system updates".
A useful thread about Magisk:​I’ll also leave you this sticky thread of XDA Developers, I’m sure it’ll help you in the future:

I've tried to find more about that because it kinda annoyed me too, but at the end, it seems to be some sort of "indicator" that you were able to successfully unlock your phone's bootloader. In any case, I'll keep searching and the guide will be updated if I find a way to remove that message.

I used this tutorial https://www.droidwin.com/how-to-remove-red-and-orange-state-warning-in-mediatek-devices/ and it works well thank you

Which vbmeta.img file am I using, when I unpac the file there are:
vbmeta_product.img
vbmeta-sign.img
vbmeta_system.img
vbmeta_sysem_ext.img
vbmeta_vendor.img
Which one should I be using to root?

Oops galeta, would it not have a custom rom or GSI compatible with the Umidigi A11 pro max? I've been looking for something like this for days and I haven't found anything like this, do you know something like this?

UMIDIGI A13 Pro Max 5G is it a dual slot device?

Be aware guys,
I followed the same procedure above to root UMIDIGI A13 Pro Max 5G
I adapted the procedure to my phone, obviously
It didn't work, ended up with a completely damaged phone.
The only way to recover it was to flash it with the SPFT tool
using firmware mode of flashing,,,

Yes you are right I have just confirmed that using Treble Check app,
it is a dual slot device.
I will now give it another go, and report back
Thanks for you help

Yes Yes Yes
I have just finally succeeded in rooting the Umidigi A13 Pro Max 5G
Yes it is a dual slot device
I rooted it using this simple procedure:
flashed the latest stock rom from Umidigi
Patched boot.img using the latest version of Magisk Manager (magisk_patched.img)
With the phone unlocked and in fastboot mode, I run the following:
fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img
Fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
fastboot set_active a
fastboot reboot
The phone rebooted, I completed Magisk install
I now have full root
The orange state warning that pops up on reboot is annoying
and I don't know how to get rid of it yet.
I will be grateful if anyone can help!!!

Good news, I have just managed to remove the orange state warning
Used a Hex editor, modified the stock lk.img and flashed it in fastboot
fastboot flash lk lk.img
Very simple worked perfectly
I am still having a problem with changing selinux mode from
Enforcing to permissive.
I have tried all existing methods and workarounds
I even tried terminal commands like getenforce and setenforce
Nothing will work to change it to permissive
I think it's android 12 security
I will be grateful if anybody can help
Some mods like viper4android will only work if
selinux is in permissive mode

[RMX3085] How to unlock bootloader, root and enable call recording?

Hi,
I have vanilla version of Realme 8 phone running on Android 11. I turned it on to figure out the build number and it is A22, i did not connect or update it anyhow. Shall I do it before rooting? Now I want to root it and enable call recording. I have found the two conflicting guides https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/flashing-twrp-and-rooting-realme-8.4366399/ and https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...otloader-flash-twrp-and-root-rmx3085.4386473/ and I don't know which is correct one to follow. Shall I install versions of Magick and SP flash referred by these posts or the newest up to date versions? By the second guide I also wonder why to install TWRP if the Magisk is not installed through it and it shall itself be installed via Flashify app so I would have another app to flash files into phone. By the second guide shall I follow the first part when I did not upgraded anything but my version is A22?
Btw. the guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/realme-8-rmx3085-twrp.4365305/ recommends to use fastboot to flash TWRP which is in contradiction with other two posts which claim that fastboot is not working. I also would welcome guide for Linux if there is that option.
Thank you!

I am planning to visit my mother. I can take bicycle, tram or walk naked through the woods. each is in contradiction, which is the correct way?
I will better ask my mother

Question Can the P11 Plus be rooted?

Hi all. I'm new to the Lenovo space, so please bear with me. After some searching, I can't quite seem to figure out what the model number of the P11 Plus is? Can anyone enlighten me?
Tab P11 Plus | 11" Family Tablet
Meet the Lenovo Tab P11 Plus, an Android tablet featuring an 11" 2K display and quad speakers for immersive multimedia, plus Google Kids Space and Entertainment Space for family fun and education.

Knowing that, can this particular model's bootloader be unlocked and the OS rooted? Cheers.

Have you found the answer whether the Lenovo P11 Plus (TB-J616F) model can be rooted?

The answer is yes.
First, using Rescue and Smart Assist, DL the latest rom for this model this model. I used TB_J616F_S000046_220311_ROW.
Next go to C:\ProgramData\RSA\Download\RomFiles\TB_J616F_S000046_220311_ROW and you will find the boot.img files. Copy it to a folder on the tablet. Remember where.... duh.
Install Magisk 25.2 which is the version that I used. Follow Magisk instructions to "patch" the copied boot.img file. When complete, copy the patch boot image file back to your Adb/Fastboot folder, normally X:\platform-tools.
Put your tablet in fastboot mode and run: fastboot flash boot <name of patched boot.img file>.
So, there's no need to ask questions as there are a least a bizzion guides on the internet on how to do a "Magisk boot.img patch and flash".

I am stuck on unlocking the bootloader as, when I use adb reboot bootloader. I am greeted with => FASTBOOT mode..., and when i go to fastbootd using recovery mode.

there is a diff between download mode and fastboot, just so u know, you need adb and fastboot from Androids SDK tools, you can find online, depending on ur computers OS. Also, ADB commands work with ur device on n plugged into the computer fastboot is for commands when ur in fastboot mode

Hi. i rooted with this video.. it is in portuguese, but the codes are in english, 15 minutes and it´s done..

I also want to root this device but I am waiting for their Android 12 update. Is anyone running Android 12 ?

I've successfully rooted my Lenovo P11 Plus (J616F) tablet via the latest stock rom + Magisk 25.2, and it was much more painless than I'd thought it'd be. But I can't figure out how to get TWRP or any other custom recovery, and I'd be happy to hear if anyone has had any success with it...

Yes...
1.) Install USB drivers (I used this to detect fastboot mode: https://motorola-global-en-uk.custhelp.com/app/usb-drivers/)
>> NOTE: With your tablet in fastboot mode, you might have to go into device manager and manually update the drivers for your "unknown android device", pointing it to the usb drivers from the previous step)
2.) Install the lastest ADB and Fastboot software
3.) Unlock your bootloader!
3a.) Enable developer options -> Enable OEM unlocking
3b.) Enter fastboot mode (turn tablet off then hold power + volume up until just after it vibrates)
3c.) With your device connected to your PC, type fastboot flashing unlock in command prompt
4.) Look for the current latest stock rom TB-J616F_S240138_221026_ROW_SVC.ZIP
5.) Extract it somewhere on your PC, and copy boot.img to somewhere on your device
6.) Install Magisk v25.2 on your device
7.) Follow the rest of the installation instructions here: https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/install.html
If all went well, after rebooting you might get a warning about your device being in "Orange State" and therefore cannot be trusted because the bootloader was unlocked... This is normal, and your instinct might be to run the command fastboot flashing lock to get rid of it, but THS IS A BAD IDEA because it could place your device into a "Red State" requiring you to unlock it again, effectively wiping your device

Can it play Redbox (free video app) OK after rooted?
If it's OK, I think Netflix and Amazon Prime will be OK as well

Yes, but you will need to do the following...
1.) In Magisk, make sure you have Zygisk enabled in the settings
2.) Install this Magisk module, then reboot your device:
Releases · kdrag0n/safetynet-fix
Google SafetyNet attestation workarounds for Magisk - kdrag0n/safetynet-fix
github.com
3.) Use YASNAC (from the app store) to verify that you pass the safetynet check (it passes for me)
4.) Uninstall Netflix, then manually download and install the latest Netflix APK from your favorite APK site
I didn't test Redbox or Amazon Prime, but I would imagine it'd just be repeating step 4 for each additional app you wish to install

Alright well I decided to take the time to check Redbox, and it works (or at least the Watch Free feature does)... And I don't have a prime account, but the prime video app makes it to the sign in screen, if that helps

Good!
I will make a backup on mine (I have Yoga 11 and practically they're the same) and unlock the bootloader and root it.
The reason why I root it so I can do adb on other device without laptop.
Actually, I have a lot of experience to root variety of machines, but what happened on Edge 2021 A12 puts me on hold on other Moto/Lenovo
I have Netflix and cable apps (Sling and Philo) and Discovery+.

Well just so we're on the same page, the steps I've posted were specifically for J616F, so your mileage may vary if you're using a different device. Also, I would maybe use a more specific stock ROM, since the one I posted is also specifically for J616F

I have to make it clear. I have both P11 plus and Yoga 11

I have the P11 Plus J616F model and cannot get the device to unlock after many attempts with wiping device reinstalling firmware reinstalling device drivers. Does failed (unknown status code) after (bootloader) sysytem-fingerprint:Lenovo/TB-J616F/TB-J616F:12/SP1A.210812.0 mean anything to anyone. I can adb reboot recovery, from recovery I can use the keys to choose fastboot and tab goes into fastbootd and fastboot devices returns my device fashboot flashing unlock starts but ends with the failed message above. fastboot getvar all returns a bunch of information about the device but also stops with same failed message. If I choose reboot bootloader using the keys on my tab while in fastbootd tab reboots to FASTBOOT... shows up in device manager as you would expect but typing fastboot flashing unlock returns waiting for device. Any thoughts or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

HCU Unlocking credits (no longer) available

I accidentally purchased credits for dc-unlocker/HCU instead of the three day option (which I have since purchased and used to unlock my bootloader using a hardware TP) so if these are of any use to someone else let me know.

Hello. Can i use that to unlock my P20 Pro?

Unfortunately they're no longer available, but you can use the same software to unlock the P20 Pro like I did. It's a little bit of a process, but I've got notes from when I did it if you are interested and I think I spent about 20 EUR for the 3 day licence of dc-unlocker/HCU. In the end I did it with the hardware test point because my back cover was loose and I intended to replace the battery anyway (it was bulging)

Can you tell me the process please. I was thinking of buying the 3 day license or MOS but i don't know if I can do it or not (don't have any expertise on anything hardware related)

I unlocked my P20 Pro using a hardware testpoint, the HCU software, and a lot of time. I would suggest reading the information below, gathering all the tools/software/ROMS/IMGS you need and asking any questions before you purchase a licence or attempt this process.
WARNING!!!! THIS WILL ERASE YOUR PHONE COMPLETELY!!!
I would suggest making sure if you are going to purchase the 3 day license (this is what I did) that you are available to work on the phone for a couple of days (maybe buy it just before the weekend?) as if you run into any issues you won't have much time to fix them.
WARNING!!!! THIS WILL ERASE YOUR PHONE COMPLETELY!!!
BE CAREFUL TO PURCHASE THE THREE DAY LICENSE AT THE CHECKOUT NOT THE CREDITS (I MADE THIS MISTAKE AS YOU CAN PROBABLY TELL FROM THIS THRED)
Otherwise, the steps I went through are below, as well as some of the links to things I found helpful during the process:
1. SOFTWARE VERSION - It was not possible to unlock the bootloader on version 10 of the OS, so you will require HiSuite (https://consumer.huawei.com/au/support/hisuite/) to downgrade or dc-phoenix to flash an earlier version. I used 9.0.0.168 for my phone (Model: CLT-L29) so will reference that in all the steps below, but use the corresponding version for your phone (whichever you downgrade to from HiSuite should be fine?)
2. TESTPOINT - I used the hardware test point (next to the camera once the back cover is removed) but apparently this is possible using the software test point process (I am uncertain of the exact process for this, but there is a guide on the dc-unlocker site somewhere)
3. ADP/FASTBOOT RECOVERY UNLOCKING - Once the HCU software has provided a new code (or if you already have one) you can use fastboot oem unlock <code> where the <code> is the bootloader unlock code to unlock.
WARNING!!!! THIS WILL ERASE YOUR PHONE COMPLETELY!!!
4. ALTERNATIVE OS INSTALLATION - In my case I installed LineageOS 16 using an old guide (https://web.archive.org/web/20210726230701/https://depl0y.com/posts/P20-Pro-LineageOS-Guide/) which will only work (even the official version) if you patch the Lineage installation (update-script requires editing or replacement)
Install TWRP
Enable USB debugging
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk twrp-3.7.0_9-0-charlotte.img
Hold VOL-UP & VOL-DOWN
fastboot reboot
You should now be in TWRP.
Flash LineageOS (and gapps)
In TWRP go to Advanced > ADB Sideload
adb sideload adb sideload lineage-16.0-20210211-nightly-charlotte-signed-modified.zip
adb sideload open_gapps-arm64-9.0-nano-20220215.zip
In TWRP go to Reboot > Bootloader
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk RECOVERY_RAMDISK_9.0.0.168.img
fastboot reboot recovery
You should now be in the stock recovery. If not, boot into stock recovery
Select Wipe data / factory reset
Reboot system now
THE P20 WILL ONLY BOOT WITH THE STOCK RECOVERY, SO REPLACE IT AFTER USING TWRP
5. WEBVIEW FIX FOR GOOGLE APPS - DO NOT SET UP WIFI DURING INSTALL!
Download com.google.android.webview.apk from apkmirror and copy to the device. Install using the default file manager and reboot the phone. Sign in to Google and update webview, google apps, etc
6. ROOT ACCESS - MAGISK
Install apk (copy to storage and run from files) for Magisk and patch RECOVERY_RAMDISK_9.0.0.168.img.
Reboot into bootloader and flash to recovery: fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk RECOVERY_RAMDISK_9.0.0.168_magisk_patched-25200_8akQl.img
TO BOOT PHONE WITH ROOT BOTH VOLUME UP AND POWER BUTTONS NEED TO BE HELD AT STARTUP!
