Question How to root rog 7 - Asus ROG Phone 7 / 7 Ultimate

I executed some commands, but root did not succeed
fastboot flash boot /path/to/magisk_patched_[random_strings].img
fastboot flash vbmeta --disable-verity --disable-verification vbmeta.img

I also couldn't achieve root.
I submitted a bug report on github.

IIRC patching init_boot.img is required for A13 devices (not boot.img as it was previously)

Did not succeed
and yes, I tried twice unlocking with the Asus unlock app

It literally tells you that device is locked. Do you get "g.co/ABH" screen during powering on the device?
If so, try in fastbootd ("adb reboot fastboot" or "fastboot reboot fastboot")

That worked
fastboot mode did the trick
Thank you!
download firmware from Asus
unpack the payload with payload-dumper
copy init_boot.img to phone
patch init_boot.img in magisk
copy magisk_patched.img back to PC
reboot phone to fastboot mode (adb reboot fastboot)
flash patched img: fastboot.exe flash init_boot magisk_patched.img
profit!

FYI I believe the ASUS bootloader unlocking server is currently down / malfunctioning and haven't gotten a good answer from their technical support. I'm currently receiving the same error and here are some links to forums posts experiencing the same behavior.

After doing some research I understand that on the Tencent Version of the phone the sellers unlock and relock Bootloader after changing from CC to WW so they mess up bootloader.
It seems that the only way of unlocking the bootloader is using EDL, which I'm scared to use b/c I don't want to brick my new Rog phone 7 -_-
Can someone with the global version verify that using the unlock tool Asus provides works on their device?

I'm also hoping to get some confirmation because I'm experiencing issues with the Unlock Tool on the zenfone 9, not the ROG phone so I don't think the issue you mentioned above applies in that case. Maybe there's multiple variables but I believe the asus servers are down until someone says that the Unlock Tool is working for them.

My previous phone was the Zenfone 9, and I unlocked it using the Asus unlock tool that is provided on their website and successfully rooted it.
Are there several editions to the Zenfone like the Rog or is there only a global version?
if there's only a global version that probably means their servers are down.

I've previously had success on the zenfone 9 as well, its only as recent as this week that the bootloader unlock tool is not working. ASUS support has responded saying their servers "were down for maintenance and to try again" but nothing has been fixed up to this point. I'm not sure if it's broken for everyone currently and if they've purposefully disabled it or it's just malfunctioning.

Yep,
Hope that the bootloader can be unlocked on the tencent version once the servers are back up.
Certainly will work with the zenfone 9.

hi anyone need to root his rog phone 7 pleass send me on telegram @aborem89

Converted CN>WW devices will not pass validation on the ASUS servers because the device region fingerprint has been changed and doesn't match. Only known way short off trying through EDL methods is to do a full reverse to CN and try to unlock before converting to WW again. This has been the case with all the previous ROG devices (and probably Zen models too) that I know of...

Can anyone make a step by step video on how to change the rom from cn - ww(global) thank-you

20 days later,the Asus unlocking server is still down and Asus didnt answered or told us anything. Does anyone have any new updates from Asus,or someone that works at Asus,maybe you can answer us here. Im starting to get tired of keep trying every few hours to unlock it and get the same error over and over,I need root acces.

You unlock bootloader with the official apk, so you cannot relock it, and moreover, like it's explain when you install the official apk for unlocking bootloader, your warranty is now void. I remember it was written when i unlocked bootloader on my zenfone 3 with the official asus apk.

Thank you for your reply.
I want to relock my zenfone.
When I boot up the phone, I get the same sentence.
It is not related to the warranty of the phone.
This is Korea, not the place where the asus phone is regularly distributed, but it does not repair the trouble in Korea asus.
Knowing this, I bought the phone.
I just want to keep that sentence no more when the phone boot.
When relocking again, the sentence seems to be rattling and asking questions.
I want to know how to relock.
I am also looking for an original recovry and boot img that fits this phone.
If I can save those files, I think relock is possible.
Or I would like to find a way in this phone that this phrase can be paved.
Thank you.
I will read your writing carefully.

Help unlock bootloader zenfone 5q (x017da)
I don't have a high enough post count to start my own thread, but this is the closest related thread I could find. If I should post this somewhere else, please advise.
I tried the official unlock bootloader apk and I keep getting an error message. It says it is an unknown error message and it may be a network issue. I tried troubleshooting on the zentalk forum. They asked for my Imei number and then told me the servers are fine that I'd be using and I would need to have support perform "Imei checking". Support had no idea what that meant. The zentalk support person suggested I ask for help here as they can not provide any additional assistance.
I've looked and using adb and fastboot I can get my phone into fastboot, but then after echo>key.txt I try:
fastboot oem get_unlock_key key.txt
FAILED (remote: 'unknown command')
fastboot: error: Command failed
My goal with unlocking the bootloader is to try to enable gcam and hopefully improve the camera capabilities.
Does anyone have a suggestion on what steps to unlock the bootloader? I don't believe there is any way to use gcam without unlocking the bootloader first, but I'd there is a way to do that, I'd appreciate some direction.
Thanks.

How To Guide WARNING: Read BEFORE Locking Bootloader

DO NOT LOCK THE BOOTLOADER WHILE ROOTED!
When locking the bootloader while rooted, the boot image will fail verification and the system will fail to boot. You cannot flash a stock boot image with a locked bootloader.
Locking the bootloader will not fix most issues. It will allow you to use apps that check for an unlocked bootloader without the need for any additional modification. That is the ONLY benefit.
If you still want to lock your bootloader, make sure you can say yes to each of the following:
1. Have you restored the stock boot.img / vendor_boot.img and the phone functions normally?
Spoiler: Restore Stock Boot
Boot / DTBO Images [Root / Stock] - 5 / Pro / Ultimate (NOT S)
These images are NOT built from source. These are the stock images from the firmware provided by Asus that are extracted with payload dumper and uploaded without modification. 18.0840.2202.231 18.0840.2201.226 18.0840.2112.211...
forum.xda-developers.com
Follow the instructions in the thread above.
Use only the boot and vendor_boot images.
Do NOT flash any images that end with "-magisk.img"
2. Have you made a backup of everything you do not want to lose when wiping the phone?
Spoiler: Make a Backup

I don't want to spread false information here, but here is a question post I created recently with two replies showing me contacting the help center (two different agents) confirming that I can use the app more than once to unlock the device's bootloader: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...nlock-relock-for-asus-rog-phone-5-5s.4367047/ . @Andrologic also confirms the case there for global (EU) version. I have a feeling that for the Tencent version it is because the sellers lock it on a wrong official ROM, or wrong ROM in general, e.g. global ROM, and therefore it confuses the unlock app. I am surprised the device did not even get hard bricked from locking on not the original ROM. By the way, I have contacted the help center of the US store, but I have a feeling it should work on the global (EU) version as well.

Based on new information, it does seem possible to repair the issues caused by converting.
That said, this guide is still quite relevant. After all, most of the issues people were having were caused by unlocking the bootloader, converting, rooting, and locking the bootloader. The warning for possibility of not being able to unlock have been removed, but the info about restoring to stock before locking has been left.
I send mine in for a motherboard repair I was rooted and everything I unrooted installed stock firmware and locked the bootloader again once I got the phone back I unlocked the bootloader once again and I am rooted again

@chairman011 what variant of the phone it is (e.g. CN or WW or US, ...etc.)? Also, when they returned it to you and you were able to unlock it again, was it on the original firmware (or any version in its lineage (i.e. not a ROM that's not original))?
If by using ASUS unlock utility one was able to oneself unlock the boot-loader once, then is it safe to say that (after relocking it) it'd be possible to unlock it again?

Some people have reported that you can't unlock the bootloader again after relocking, using the official "Unlock Device App", but I suspect it is an OS mismatch. This issue has only been observed on Tencent (CN) version with global ROM. Have anyone been able to unlock->relock->unlock on the same version of the phone, but not relocking while on the global ROM (i.e. relocking while on stock CN ROM)?
I am surprised the phone did not hard brick. Usually, and this is a general case in almost all Android phones with bootloader unlock capability, when you relock on a different ROM your phone hard bricks. Always restore to original ROM before relocking. Can people with Tencent (CN) phones with global ROM and locked bootloader flash the original CN ROM without unlocking the bootloader? If so, can you test the "Unlock Device App" to see if it works while on the CN (official) ROM? I gotta a feeling it might work in that situation.

It's an identification mismatch. It's similar to when you throw your SIM card in a different phone and your carrier lists you as having a different phone. Based on the information that has been discovered, it would appear that CN to WW conversions were wiping out the stuff that makes your device your device.

So, basically the bootloader unlock for tencent devices will always locked unless asus uodate their unlock app or has their been another way around it yet?
The unlock app should unlock the bootloader at least once. Unlocking it a second time has mixed results.
Hi there, can you guys help me? I'm one of those unlucky ones who got my phone corrupted and won't boot anymore due to the boot loader. is there a way to fix this?? I've got an ROG phone 5s 16/512 on android12.

Below post from the help guide (credits to the contributors) has links to RAW firmware packages. You just need any one of the WW packages. Download it and with your device in bootloader mode, run one of the .bat flash scripts that you'll find in the RAW package. The version doesn't matter, you can simply update to the latest firmware once you're back up.

Hi there, I did follow and did the raw setup it did got me through the boot loop. However, its stuck on the system start up updating screen and stays in 0%.
Darn i thought im already dead! i didn't even know how i fixed it hahahaha! but its working now successfully downgraded to android 11 because its the only firmware i found and managed to make it work again combination of alot of research in google and here xda. working 100% imei two of them, finger print and sn are all intact. thanks guys
For these few reasons I have to give up root & lock the boot-loader: 1. Financial apps stop working from time to time causing much grief; 2. I've used root functionality precisely for nothing for a year I've had it; 3. It was getting all too complicated to keep up with it all.
(The original intention for unlocking/rooting was to get some sort of unofficial VoLTE and VoWiFi for the mobile operator of my choice; however, it didn't help. Then a newer firmware implemented VoLTE and VoWiFi! So my impatience, admittedly couldn't be known at that point in time, backfired.)
I've nothing to preserve on the phone, due to having a Moto G 5G backup phone. I only had it working with adb & fastboot in my Linux laptop (up to date Fedora 36). I had no working Windows laptop then. But I do now. However, adb on Windows says the device is "unauthorised" (as expected); fastboot in it doesn't list the device. So I might be limited to my Linux laptop only. The phone was previously working on the last A11 WW firmware fine.
I've tried to follow the steps from the original post of this thread. First one worked with vendor_boot, dtbo & boot images (used only 18.0840.2202.231 versions of them). Second N/A. With third step, flash_raw_and_wipe_data.sh fails by core dumping.
Right now, the phone boots to fastbootd & not further. Any help is much appreciated.
(I think I'm inching towards fully bricking this phone. I'm not there yet, but getting closer . It'd be nice to get it working again without root & with locked boot loader. Any help is much appreciated.)
This is where I'm at while executing step 3 of the initial guide in this post:
When powered on, in the usual boot loader unlocked warning page, it prompts for power key to be pressed to continue.
(Here if power switch is not pressed within 30 odd seconds, phone powers down automatically.)
Once power key is pressed, it lands in boot loader. Selecting Start, it goes back to boot loader. I think this is called a boot loop.
While in boot loader, selecting "Recovery mode", it progresses to "Android Recovery". Here selecting "Enter fastboot" appears to take it furthest in the booting process of landing at "Android Fastboot".
(The version info showed in Fastboot -- 18.0840.2202.231-0 -- matches with the last A11 update I downloaded from Asus website & had it installed late March this year.)
I don't think it can boot any further at the state that it's in now.
I think this is where it needs a raw firmware to be flashed. This step keeps core-dumping in my Linux laptop when trying to use WW_ZS673KS_18.0840.2106.83_M3.13.24.40-ASUS_1.1.92_Phone-user.raw file that was linked in the original post. This version appears to be quite old. Could the version mismatch between what the phone was running recently (18.0840.2202.231) and the raw file (18.0840.2106.83) cause the core-dump issue? IOW, would somebody have a link for 18.0840.2202.231 raw file please?
I couldn't use my work Windows laptop due to an issue I cannot overcome (installation of driver needed for the phone is somehow blocked in it). So, soon I'll try it from a personal Windows laptop of my neighbor. Let's see if it can progress any further with the help of Windows platform.
In the meantime, I can appreciate to be informed about any tips and tricks such as if this is something that the phone cannot be recovered from. Or even somebody highly skilled would like to help me to achieve a fully functional phone (with bootloader locked please) for a fair compensation. Please let me know. Thanks for any guidance.

Confirm that you can send fastboot commands to the device. It's a prerequisite for flashing the original boot img back or doing a RAW flash if boot looped. That's the very first step you need sorted and confirmed. Sounds like you may not be in the right Fastboot mode. The RAW version doesn't matter too much as long as it's in line with your device version, you just need it to get back up and can upgrade normally to other versions.

What version of firmware will remove all the metro by tmobile bloatware?

Hi guys I downloaded the REtail version of my firmware for my device here https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/motorola/denver/official/RETUS/

HOWEVER
I am STILL get the metro by tmobile splash screen on booting and I still have metro by tmobile apps pre installed on my phone. AND THAT Annoying metro news screen when you swipe to the left.
Am I not installing the correct firmware xda bros? TIA

You flashed it using the flash_file.xml as a reference for flash commands?
These are my recommended steps If you have a Windows machine.

Thank you sir I can confirm the flash_file.xml reference was followed in the commands. I double checked.
I LMSA says it can't verify my software and won't let me continue . I got the new september update and i think lmsa don't have it yet. idk why else it would say this.
bump. Anyone?
update: I Reflashed 3 times successfully only the SOFTWARE CHANNEL still shows Universal SKU
This picture i found from ebay is from the same model I have. Yet they have no metro bloatware and North America Retail under software channel, Mine says Universal SKU.
https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmwar...T_regulatory-DEFAULT_cid50_CFC_R3_CFC.xml.zip Is the firmware I used to flash\
THanks in advanced!

Your best bet is honestly to just either use a custom rom or to remove all the bloatware either manually or systemlessly.
Long Story - Short:
Just got home with an Unlocked sofiap XT2043 - Moto G Stylus , networked unlocked, and I am able to toggle the OEM Unlock switch in Developer Options, However:

fastboot flashing unlock = FAILED
fastboot oem unlock = FAILED

Thanks in Advance for any assistance !

Question Can´t access to fastboot

I am trying to unlock my nord ce 2 bootloader but everytime I try to access bootloader mode, it says something like Unlock_Verify_device ok and then reboots
how can I unlock the bootloader? Same happens on my nord 2. Oem unlocking is enabled and I have no selection of advanched startup options. I have magisk boot.img to flash
Can't say I experienced that myself. The message you got looks promising. The 'unlock_verify_device ok' message means you're getting to fastboot. But I'm not sure why it's rebooting. Do you have enough time to run the command 'fastboot devices'?
Also, what version is your firmware?
Here is the guide I used when I was unlocking the bootloader: https://www.droidwin.com/how-to-unlock-bootloader-on-oneplus-nord-ce-2/
I am running android 12 beta on oxygenos
Edit: fastboot doesn´t even find the device
Oh, now it tells that serial is not match. what's going on?
so? Can anyone help? Phone keeps saying that serial is not match and then reboots. Is this phone just a joke or something? Gonna buy samsung if yes.
What model is your phone? I wasn't aware of the Android 12 beta being available for the Nord CE 2. Another thing to try is this tutorial to manually install the OnePlus drivers: https://www.droidwin.com/fix-android-device-not-showing-in-fastboot-mode/
Was looking on the nord ce 1 xda Forum. It's only recently that a few roms and twrp are starting to appear, so there is hope. IMO oneplus need to take £$50 off the price, more users = more chance of getting more development

Fastboot is stuffed on this device. There's no longer a way to make fastboot work.

No I am not able to unlock the bootloader either. There is currently nothing we can do.
Hi everyone, any update on this? Did someone manage to unlock the bootloader?
If I'm not mistaken. You can rollback to android 11 to get it back.
I'm currently facing the same problem, so I tried rolling back and have downloaded over 20 rollback zips now, and extracted them. All won't work, it reboots in recovery. And it is like fastboot just doesn't exist. So yeah they probably messed it up.
I'm so sad, I switched from Iphone to Oneplus partly because of the rooting options. So sad
Can I do this trough adb or not?

You don't extract it though. You just rename it by removing the _Rollback at the end.

Question How to unlock a re-locked Asus Rog Phone 5s?

Hi,
I have unlocked my rog 5s using official app.
I did some playing with roms and installed official firmware by flashing RAW firmware.
I have locked the device using below command.
fastboot oem asus-lock
Now that my phone is in unlocked Rog phone list, I am not getting any updates nor Asus Unlock app is working.
I want to unlock my phone again and install some GSI roms as I officially don't get any updates from ASUS.
Any help is appreciated........
Maybe by changing the device rom and fingerprint back to Chinese version and hoping that the unlock tool will pick it up as a good match - Guess being that your phone is a CH>WW convert and not an original Global/WW version from factory.
Re-locking converted devices is a bad idea. It's posted and warned about so many times in this forum by other CN device owners...
