If your device is on less than Android Q (you didn't tell) "DiskInfo 4.9.9 (build 10)_49910.apk" might tell you.
Did it on mine before I upgraded.

[Downgrade][S-ON] Downgrade by flashing older version of official RUU

Get the method from here:
https://bbs.htc.com/cn/thread-109059-1-1.html
----------
This method seems to modify the original system version number so that the old version of the RUU file can pass the checking.
--------------------
Backup your data before downgrading.
--------------------
1. Download the RUU file which is the version you need.
2. Reboot to download mode, then flash the TWRP via fastboot.
Unofficial TWRP for U11+: https://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-u11/development/unofficial-htc-u11-twrp-recovery-t3706264
Fastboot command:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
3. Reboot to recovery mode, then get sde1 file by :
adb pull /dev/block/sde1
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
4. Open the file with a text editor and change the version number, which is easy to found, to the version number of your RUU file.
5. Push back the file by
adb push sde1 /dev/block
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If it shows "does not have enough space", delete the original file by the files manager in the recovery first.
6. Flash your RUU file by entering into the download mode after copying it to the SD card.
Tested on U11+ China version, no problems found.
Hope this can help you.

You don't need to relock bootloader, but you have to get stock recovery.

Tested. Ok on HTC__621 taiwan device.
Thanks for the guide. Does it work if you swiped to "allow system modification" in twrp?
HTC U11 Plus is base on android oreo.
I think you can flash ruu normally.
You can flash older version of RUU follow software number and it's same version android.
If you want to rollback from new version android ,this method is important.
Ex RUU 1.xx.400.x Android 8.0
Your devices is software number 1.24.400.x ,Android 8.0
You can use Ruu above for flash your device.

Hey Guys, would this procedure work if i would like to return the phone to stock with custom rom??
By the way, is it possible to pull the sde1 without flashing the trwp recovery image?
I have tried to pull the file with the following steps and it is a success but not sure if the file is okay:
adb root
adb pull /dev/block/sde1
I can see the version number in the file with notepad++
Please advise. thanks.

How do you relock your bootloader???
I managed to flash to stock but the bootloader remain unlock.
Please help.
Hi all,
Managed to get reload the stock rom and re-lock the bootloader.
Thanks.
Do I need TWRP and SD card?
Can I just use fastoot/adb and flash from PC directly?
Also what images are needed? I only have boot system and recovery stock images. Is that good enough?

[ROOT][TRIAL][MAGISK] P20 Pro - Try out on Rooting Method

Hi Guys,
Note : By doing this, you know that you're gonna do a modification to your phone, and im not in any way, responsible for what happen after. Escape Route for if something wrong happen is provided, but YOU DO THIS ON YOUR OWN RISK
since this phone is fairly new, at this moment a clear rooting method haven't established yet. This is what this thread for.
Based on information gathered from P20 Lite Forum (the rooting guide for that device even already up - here), it seems the old trick of rooting (from Mate 10 Pro) using Patched Boot Method is working fine. And Magisk is working
Basically this method need few pre-requisites :
1. Unlocked Bootloader (by getting the code here ) - and if you not sure how to do it, go here for the guide
2. Stock Boot (or RAMDISK to be precise for this phone) - I managed to extract it from 8.1.0.106 ROM version for CLT-L29 (download here)
3. Magisk Manager 5.5.4 (from Magisk Thread) to patch the .img above, or
4. Patched RAMDISK image (i patched it) from here
5. and of course computer with ADB & Fastboot installed (make sure you have latest SDK to prevent something not working)
Now, to Root it, all you need to do is,
1. Boot into bootloader
2. Type
Code:
fastboot flash ramdisk patched_boot.img
(patched_boot.img is the file you download from prerequisites number 4, placed it in the same directory with your adb & fastboot - i assume you know that already)
3. Reboot
4. You now should have root access, download Magisk Manager to manage modules and superuser
(you might need to flash this module if you failed to pass safetynet)
In case something go wrong, flash back the stock RAMDISK from pre-requistes number 2 above using same method as what u did to flash the patched one.
That way worked. Thanks.
Edit:
Just as a hint. To get magisk work as it should..
After boot into the system and installed Magisk Manager, install Magisk from there again, so you dont get any /data/magisk problems.
SafteyNet passed then.
Fingers crossed twrp is possible soon
Works on CLT-L09
I have a German single Sim from Vodafone tested the root yesterday and works very well
Would this method work on CLT-L09 model? Thanks

Hey guys, I need some help please! I unlocked bootloader through Huawei website which went fine and then when I flashed the patched boot.img through fastboot and tried to reboot my phone has told me there was a critical error while booting. It won't boot to system and just loops a few times and then boots to Huawei eRecovery. This is my first Huawei device and I'm clueless as to how to recover
Any ideas would be much appreciated! Thanks

The ramdisk.img was taken from .106 ROM, so its actually newer than what installed on your phone. That might become issue,
But, do you managed to revive the phone using the stock ramdisk from first post ?

Yes thank you, the stock ramdisk from the first post allowed my phone to boot normally again. Do you think if I use magisk manager app to patch the stock ramdisk it will work for me? Or is that the same as what you did to make the patched boot.img anyway?

If you have the 103 rom, and able to extract the ramdisk yourself, you can try patch it yourself.
Have you tried to flash the patch ramdisk one more time ? In case it just a bad flash.
Because if you manage to boot using stock one. It means your system has no problem using .106 boot image and the patched one should work as well

How To Root Oxygen 5.1.7

Oneplus updated the OnePlus 6's Bootloader and you may ask yourself 'Can i still root?'
The answer is yes. It is easy.
1. At first, your bootloader has to be unlocked
2. Just download the Twrp.img and the Twrp installer from twrp.me, then the latest magisk installer
3. Put the magisk.zip and twrp installer zip into the root of your device and boot into bootloader
4. Now you have to open a new shell or cmd window in your adb folder, then type "Fastboot devices" there
5. If your phone is recognized, then do this command: " fastboot boot .\twrp-3.2.1-0-enchilada.img"
6. The op6 should boot into the TWRP, there type in your pincode, pattern, or what so ever you have. If you get a message because of system modification, click 'Keep read only'
7. Go to 'Install', then flash the TWRP installer zip, then magisk right after it
8. Just reboot and enjoy
The procedure is the same as always. I can confirm it's working because i rooted a few minutes ago
Just keep in mind the kernels and custom roms haven't been updated to 5.1.7 base yet and may not work until they are.

Based on how things have been going so far, people are going to be asking. Just saying.
i understand butttttttttttttttttttttt this forum is flooded with how to flash twrp, how to root with 5.1.6, how to install 5.1.5 with twrp ect ect ect lol just trying to reduce clutter and make things a tad bit simpler. No offense guys lol
So if I already have twrp and Magisk installed is the method still the same?
Will this update lock the bootloader back?
Pretty sure I swiped to allow system modifications on my first twrp installation so will that matter?

T-Mobile 9.5.5 boot.img

Does anyone happen to have this? I used the 9.5.3 img for the TWRP with working decrypt, and it booted fine once, however now it keeps booting back to TWRP despite selecting "reboot system." I think someone mentioned they had it, but I can't find it for the life of me. Thanks so much!
No, don't think there are any full zips for T-Mo yet.

In case you still need it, I'm fairly certain this is the boot image for GM31CB 9.5.5. I extracted it from my own device when I was flashing the international firmware. I will be honest, it might have the Chinese TWRP patched in. I doubt it though since it I can't find any of the TWRP files in the decompiled image.

[Recovery][Stock]ADB Shell Enabled

Hi
I have extracted stock recovery from latest OTA 10.0.7 EU for our OP7T and enabled adb shell, so now i am putting this one up here to come handy for those soft bricked using some wonky magisk modules. But also for other needs.
open terminal while in bootloader and type:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery_op7t_adb_10.0.0.7_by_Killswitch.img
reboot into recovery u can use as well:
Code:
fastboot reboot recovery
you can follow this guide on how to remove magisk modules
Download: GDrive
Enjoy and good luck!
I am assuming it will work on other versions as well like OOS 10.3.0 India.

no stock recovery does not come with module enabled...you can try it yourself just boot to recovery and try adb shell

believe it should its just a recovery, i believe the ROM localization is where the real difference is...the stock recovery eitherway comes in some chinese and english...no indian language.. and in the end you can still reflash stock if you need to do anything there with it. Eventhou i am flashing only through bootloader...never really used it except adb shell

Yea its the right path. The img can be patched with Magisk and you can root the device by flashing the boot.img

In theory, we should be able to make a backup of our own boot.img with this?

I just DD'd boot.img. This seemed to work for backing up partitions.
Recovery images don't differ across variant models do they?
This would work on global version for instance?

If it doesn't work, I have a Global insecure 1.0.0.7 recovery image I could share.

Hi,
Here's a link to Google Drive for 1.0.0.7 Global ADB-enabled stock recovery:
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1e59CRQKJ9ymBKui2mtCrnbLhZ06ukvYe
Reboot your phone to fastboot (bootloader).
fastboot reboot fastboot to get to FastbootB or whatever its called. It'll look like stock recovery.
Fastboot flash recovery insecure_recovery_GLO_1007.img
Reboot.
Profit.

Boot into recovery, go in cmd and type adb.
type
dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/boot_a of =/data/media/0/nameoffile.img
dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/boot_b of =/data/media/0/nameoffile.img
patch one of them in magisk manager, fastboot boot patched img, direct install magisk in magisk manager
