- Link to xda-thread (here)
Download links: Windows x86|x64 - Linux x64 - MAC x64
All released versions can be found here.
[ROOT] Use SuperSU 2.62 or higher from here systemless for 6.0.1 and above.
Known bugs/limitations: - For partition Flashing, it is recommended(mandatory?) to do a reboot-bootloader if you want to flash multiple partitions one after the other. (according to the Google flashing scripts) (Implemented in 1.2.1)
- For return to stock, the tool will be stuck after your phone successfully boots, you need to reboot to fastboot again in order to flash the Radio and finish the full return to stock. (Fixed in 1.2.0)
Changelog:
Check the changelog for each release here.
Tutorials/FAQ:
Q: How do I get in bootloader/fastboot mode?
Turn off the phone and turn it on by using Volume down + Power key.
Q: How do I check for updates in your tool?
Follow the instructions in the screen below.
Q: Where can I find the device driver to install it for windows?
Click here, download the driver and run the setup.
Q: How do I root my stock phone?
- Unlock bootloader.
- Flash recovery.
- Use SuperSU 2.62 systemless or higher from here.
(Usually the latest version upon tool release is included in the Sideload folder of the tool, you can either sideload it or copy it to recovery and flash it manually)
Q: I get an error "Cannot open file" on MAC, what should I do?
Open the terminal, go to your application path and paste this command:
Code:
chmod +x LxMultiTool.app/contents/macos/*
Q: What do I need to do in order to be in Fastboot or in ADB mode.
Fastboot mode will be detected only while being in bootloader.
ADB mode will be detected from Recovery (custom) and actual ROM with USB debugging active.
Refresh button needs to be used in order to check for what mode you are in.
Q: Are there any other software that I need to install in order to run this tool?
On Windows and MAC everything is bundled, so nothing needs to be installed, just run.
On Linux you need to install from your package manager libQt5Core, libQt5Widgets, libQt5Gui, libQt5Network.
If it's not enough, use ldd LxMultiTool in terminal to find out what you're missing from your environment.
Q: I have an yellow/orange/red text screen during boot, what's that?
When you unlock you usually get the Orange screen and it's normal, but if you really want to know what's this about, give a reading to this.
Q: Hey, my device is not detected, why?
On windows, you need to manually install the USB drivers, they are not included and probably they won't be included in this tool.
Also, make sure you click the connection Refresh button after connecting the device to your PC.
Q: What do i need to do in order to install a custom ROM?
1. Unlock Bootloader.
2. Flash a custom recovery of your choice.
3. Flash an insecure kernel (boot).
4. Flash custom ROM with no problems via recovery.
All those things are found and can be done via this tool.
Q: Hi, i just downloaded this tool, how do i use it?
First, extract the folder somewhere.
After that, run LxMultiTool.exe on windows by double clicking it, LxMultiTool on linux and the same on mac.
Q: Do I need android-sdk installed or something else?
No! This tool uses it's own supplied binaries for adb and fastboot, if you have android-sdk installed it will be ignored anyways.
This tool is fully portable and stand-alone.
Q: I get an error while trying to unlock the bootloader -> FAILED(remote: oem unlock is not allowed), what now?
Starting with Android 5.0, you need to enable Bootloader Unlocking from the developer settings, in order to do that, follow these steps:
- Enable Developer options
- Enable USB Debugging
- Look for the ‘OEM Unlock’ Option and toggle it.
Q: How do I use the return to stock feature?
First download the latest package from here, then extract the contents (there is an archive in the archive) untill you get the a folder like angler-mda89d
that contains the images, that folder needs to be copied in the /Data/StockPackages folder in order to be visible.
Easier steps -> Get your device in bootloader -> Start the tool -> Hit refresh -> go to Stock -> hit open folder -> copy the extracted folder with the name angler-xxxxxx in there, hit F5 or Right-click + Refresh -> you should see the folder in there like in the following screenshot. Thanks @ursa08 for the screenie.
Q: How do I enable Developer options?
- Launch the Settings
- Scroll Down and Tap on About Phone(or About Device)
- Locate the Build Number Section
- Tap on the Build Number Option 7 Times
- Go Back to the Main Settings Page
- Scroll Down and Tap on Developer Options
Q: Hi, i just bought a phone what should i do now?
Well, you firstly need to unlock your bootloader...
Q: What is logcat?
Well, you can pretty much use google for that answer, but to put it short, is that thingy that tells you what is happening behind the scenes of your phone.
It is usually used for debugging and entertaiment(?).
When you report an error/bug to somebody, it will be a blessing to provide a logcat (logfile)!
Q: What is a Custom Recovery and why do i need one?
A custom recovery is that thingy that let's you flash .zip files, use your logic and you wil get it why you need one.
Q:There are others guides/tutorials out there, should i check them instead of this?
If you manage to get things done using this one, no, otherwise yes, note that some could be outdated...
Q:What is sideload and how do I use it?
Sideload is a function from adb that let's you flash a zip file while in recovery directly from your PC.
Please note that you need to be in sideload mode on your recovery before doing this.
To enter sideload mode, in TWRP go to Advanced -> ADB Sideload -> Swipe to sideload

This tool has support only for 4 nexus devices, some features might work, some not, it's all down if the commands that are used by the tool are supported by the other device.
For example all fastboot flashing commands use the command:
Code:
fastboot flash <partition> <file_to_flash>
The same goes for the rest of the commads, I will try to investigate more and see if it's worth it to create a Sam Note 3 package for the tool.
The adb features should work though.
That would be awesome as i run only linux. And cant seem to get odin or heindall to work. Tried multiple times. So if there is something you could cook up. Amazing sauce. Its a att note 3. Either way. This will work great for my n6

New update with some fixes that should have been implemented a long time ago...
- Fixed Sideload flashing
- Enabled Recovery rebooting
- Fixed open folder for Stock menu
Wow - Great work on this. Love the fact that it supports mac/nix as well.
Nice! Keep up the good work.
Thank you!

Yes you will, make sure you've backed-up as much as you can to your Google Cloud Storage. I promise, it's worth it.
Many Thanks

And if i just install TWRP, and then the root zip file to give me root will it all work ok? will i achieve root ok?
I spent ages getting this phone just like i want it and seriously cant be bothered to do it all again - will i be ok keeping encryption on if all i want to achieve is root?
what will i lose out on if i dont disable encryption?

I found that if I didn't disable the encryption, root wouldn't work as it couldn't mount the file system to make the relevant changes

Anyone managed to get Samsung Pass and Secure Folder working? I have Magisk Hide running and Knox Trip is emulated to 0x0. Other apps that would normally detect root don't detect it but Samsung Pass and Secure Folder still can.
Is superSU SR3 working??
its a great work
anyone tried if Samsung Pay still works after this? I have not got my phone yet.
Just for info tried installing the SuperSU binary through TWRP but, as TWRP seems to have no access to the SD card, the flash failed and left me in a boot loop.
Reinstalling TWRP from Odin and reflashing Magisk solved the Boot loop issue.
SuperSU did kill the Knox processes for me though to stop the annoying nagging notifications.
If after flashing from Odin, phone says that needs restore, Just press volume up Bixby Power, wait, then format data, Power off. Now ho back in download mode, reflash with odin, done.
It works all', except personal area and Samsung health
would this work on the SM-G950FD?
if i use this method i lose warranty ? is it possible to do evrything later on normal without having any trouble ?
Phone brick...LOL...
help : just tried to root my g950f Uk 02 - i've flashed it a few times and used the two flash but im getting verification failed and it wont erase anymore when i try use the recovery flash i get invaled mount /data when using that decrypt .zip in flashables do i need to redo the stock firmware and start again?
i am still waiting for my S8(exynos) to arrive and here comes the twrp i did not even wished yet....
Disclaimer: Im new and i'm not that good at english,im not responsible for bricked devices.
So for the past month i've been through a journey of tryng to break through huawei's draconian security and i can proudly say that i finally did it, i installed a custom rom on my FIG-LX1
I've read a lot of sources and it all seems to be all over the place so i'm going to try and make this as easy as i can for you.
1.First of all ,if you want a custom rom go to OpenKirin ( https://openkirin.net/devices/) and choose your rom and see if you need to upgrade/downgrade your emui and also if your device is supported.
2.For the bootloader you have two options
a) The paid one, use sigma key or dc unlocker
b) The free and geeky one. Attention you'll need to open up your phone, which is honestly not that hard and you can pay a pro to do this for you for like 5 bucks .This method is pretty straight forward:\
1.Go to Potato NV (https://github.com/mashed-potatoes/PotatoNV) , see if your device is supported and download the software
2. Now comes the hard part, you need to take off the back cover of your device. Shut down your phone, then take your phone cover off, then you need to search google for your test point. For example for me it was Fig lx1 test point (device model+ test point)
3. When you located the test point youll need to short it with the motherboard shield. In their tutorial they said that youll need to solder it ,but it can be done easier. You need just a very small piece of wire and someone to plug the device
Here's how the process looks:
{
"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"
}
4.Open potato nv software. Now you need another person to help you. Hold the phone , touch the test point and the motherboard shield and keep them shorted while the other person plugs the usb cable from pc to phone. U should hear the connection sound from windows and the CHARGING LOGO SHOULDN'T APPEAR.
5. Now you can stop shorting the test point and the shield, but keep the phone connected to PC.
6. In potato Nv choose your cpu and unlock bootloader
7.Now your bootloader is unlocked ,if any problems you still have the bootloader unlock code
Back to roms and twrp .
Now you should see this messagge appear:
This menu is very important for changing the rom ,cause every rom needs emui 9 or 8 to be installed and from here you can reinstall the stock emui after flashing custom rom but we'll talk about it later.
Now for flashing twrp.
Boot the device into bootloader mode(shut down ,then hold power+ volume down until huawei appears on screen or Better and easier and useful for later download android platform tools from SDK Platform Tools release notes | Android Developers (developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools).Plug the device into pc,enable usb debugging . Open a cmd and open the folder location .Example
Code:
cd C:\Users\USerName\Desktop\platform-tools
and type
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
. You should see that your bootloader is unlocked
Download android platform tools (developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools)
Now find your twrp img for your phone , rename it to recovery.img and put it in in the platform-tools folder
Now in terminal open cmd in platform tools folder and type
Code:
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery.img
Now you have twrp installed
Note that you wont use it neither for rooting with magisk neither with installing custom rom.
Installing custom rom:
Open kirin has a very good user guide and i suggest you to follow it: OpenKirin (openkirin.net/user_guide/openkirin-rom-installation-instructions/)
Btw their rom works with twrp
But it doesn't say how to switch your rom or go back to stock for switching you need to be on stock)
1.Go to Android File Host - Free file hosting for Android developers ( androidfilehost.com) and search for your build number (eg: FIG-LX1) and download a firmware emui 8 or 9.
2.Open the zip ,go to software and from here youll see a folder called dload, extract it somewhere
3.Now youll need a sdcard in your phone,plug your phone into pc and put the dload folder on your sdcard (it should bee on the root directory ,basically dont put it in another folder in sdcard)
3.You should've noticed already that every time you restart your phone there is a warning message sayng that your phone is unlocked( image above)
4.Press volume up for 3 seconds and it should take you to huawei recovery ,from here press wipe data and factory reset to kinda reinstall huawei recovery which youll use for dload
5.After wipe restart your phone ,press vol up + vol down + power until huawei logo to enter force update
6.Now wait for it to do its job and install emui.
*If it doesnt do anything , take the sd card out ,put it in another device ,open dload folder,find update.zip and put it on the sdcard instead of dload folder
7. To switch the rom repeat the steps from open kirin,note that if u had twrp youll need to install it again
Now the hardest part ,rooting...NOte that i tested root only on stock so your process can be diffrent but im not sure ,you cand try for other rom this process
For stock and no twrp:
1.Force update emui with dload method , needed for a recovery img.
2.On pc open dload folder ,open update.zip and extract UPDATE.APP
3.Now download huawei app extractor from here [TOOL] Huawei Update Extractor [UPDATED: v0.9.9.5] | OPEN-SOURCE LIBRARY | XDA Developers Forums (xda-developers.com) (forum.xda-developers.com/t/tool-huawei-update-extractor-updated-v0-9-9-5-open-source-library.2433454/)
4.Open the app and go to settings and untick every box you see
5.Now go to extract and extract the UPDATE.APP file
6.Now you should see a lot of nonsense,find recovery_ramdis.img ,left click it once, then right click for options and select extract selected
7. Now u should have a recovery_ramdis.img file.Move this file on your phone and install magisk manager.
8.Open magisk and press install in the tab with the mask(the first install button) tick the box with recovery mode, then select patch a file and select the recovery_ramdis.img file .Now it patches it. Then move the patched file to the pc again, to the platform tools folder
9.Enable usb debugging on the device and plug device to pc
10.Open cmd on pc and type
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
, or simply reboot to bootloader(shut down phone,then hold power + vol down until huawei logo appears)
11. In cmd type
Code:
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk magisk_patched_yourfile.img
Dont forget to change the yourfile into your file name mine had something like this : jhfdU
12.Reboot your phone and voila u have root, if doesn't work go back to magisk press again install,tick recovery mode, but this time select direct install and this should resolve problems
Magisk official guide(kinda hard to understand) : Installation | Magisk (topjohnwu.github.io) (topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/install.html#huawei)
Note that by this you'll remove your custom recovery .
IF U WANT TWRP i assume that you patch the twrp img file with magisk and flash i,t you can try it out and post your results or u can try to just flash twrp as is.
Hope i helped you !!
I am perfom this Sorry for my english, I am from Ukraine
Download archive!
We unpack. Install the adb and mtk preloader drivers, if they are not installed, restart the computer.
In the smart, turn on the developers menu, in it - "Allow OEM unlock" and "USB debugging" and connect the smart to the computer.
We drop valuable photo data from the smart to the computer for any, and, without disconnecting the smart from the PC, run the script (with the phone connected to the PC and loaded into the android phone. Reboot_to_fastboot_getvar current-slot.bat (not from the admin, just click twice).
Smart will look 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"
}
we allow - put a daw, ok. We are waiting for the smart to reboot into fastboot, when the barcode appears on the smart screen, before that we do not press anything in the script
I did the scripts step by step, after each operation in the script window, press enter to continue, and so on until each script is closed
We look at our current slot in the window and remember the letter - a or b:
In the script, press enter so that the smart reboots and the script closes.
Run flash_tool.exe, go to this tab and check the boxes, as in the screenshot:
So we consider the necessary versions of orig. files, so as not to download and sew a specific firmware version for this instruction.
(And best of all, all the checkboxes, except for system, vendor, userdata - they are not critical, if they are not removed, it will take up a lot of space on the computer up to +74 gb, but I did not put these checkboxes, there must be some risk and passion )
We press "Read Back" and only then we connect the switched off smart to the PC, we wait, at the end we disconnect the bodies, do not touch it: sveta:
Go to this tab, remove all checkboxes! And we only put on lk_ with the letter of a non-your slot that we looked at, for example, you had slot "a" - so we put a check on lk_b and vice versa :
Click "Download" and connect the switched off smart to the PC (it was already turned off: sveta
As it flashes, we close the USB flash drive window, disconnect and turn on the smart, after loading, we connect it to the PC again, we already run the script
Unlock_Moto_E6S.bat, wait until the body reboots into a fastboot (to the barcode on the screen) and only then press the input step by step to continue in the script until it is completely closed.
Everything, the bodies are unlocked. Now you can get an excellent and fast root from Magisk, try other firmware, unsubscribe which one is buggy, which one flies. I haven't tried yet. Now I will write how to flash orig. kernel with magisk root (attached magisk boot for xt2053-1 4/64 fw RETEU 288-60-6-29 https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/fiji/official/RETEU/
Additionally, there is a script in the folder to delete the message when loading that the bootloader is unlocked, it does not interfere much, but I deleted it. Since this is not important, I separated it from the main script, since I did not test it on different versions of the firmware, in theory it should work on all versions, you can try after unlock. Or throw off ROM_45 from your firmware, I'll remove it from it. I now have the latest firmware flashed, it is on the server, but for some reason it did not fly through the air. If you flash it, then you can safely delete the message from the bootloader with my script, there is a file from it)

I took the first firmware I got to try from here: https://4pda.to/forum/index.php?showtopic=892755
but the firmware itself is everywhere, for example here:

Tested it and it worked! Thanks a lot!
Now looking for delevoping some roms to this device
Im having a little problem, i tried to flash a GSI with "fastboot -u flash system gsi.img", the device didn't boot. Then i tried to flash the stock with the SP Flash Tool, and i throws an error (status_sec_dl_ forbidden), then i flashed it with Lenovo Rescue and Smart Assistant. I tried to flash via fastboot the patched magisk image but it throws an signature error.
Any help? Tha device still says that is unlocked

did you use the auth file that comes with sp flash tool? without that your device wont boot properly
Yes, i used the correct download agent and auth file
interesting, i followed all his steps and had no problem rooting it. try backtracking with his scripts again?
Solved it, also me and a developer are working on a new, more simple and automated script. Still haven't figured out how to flash the lk via script.
When is done i will post a complete guide in the moto e6s forums on how to do it, i think it might work well, but i would have to test in a non-unlocked device
Can someone please make a video with explanation, I didn't understand very well what is done, so I won't touch anything, but I thank those who record a video explaining it to me (I'm Brazilian)
Here you have a more straight forward guide, note that is still in testing
[GUIDE] How to unlock bootloader on E6s
Hello, in this guide i will show you how to unlock the bootloader on Moto E6s ;) (Sadly for now this guide is Windows only) CAUTION You are doing this AT YOUR OWN RISK! I will NOT take responsibility if you brick your device! Also, remember to...

Excuse my ignorance, do you think it is compatible for the XT2053-5 model?
cannot use fastboot flash boot magiskboot.img
sign failed
partition flash is not allowed
hey is the moto e6+ twrp work on e6s
i had successfully rooted my Galaxy A71 (Android v13) with Magisk, but then I uninstalled Magisk (Complete Uninstall), now I reinstalled Magisk v26.1 via APK and this is what I see:

"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

I lost root?
How can I go back to the previous situation? do i need to flash my device again with Odin?

The Magisk App (.apk) does not do the actual rooting, it is simply a GUI (graphical user interface) for the behind-the-scenes actual Magisk. According to your screenshot you only have the App part, so no root (see how it says "Installed N/A" under "Magisk"). In order to root your device do this:
NOTE: The below instructions have been copy/pasted from Magisk's official Installation Instructions
Before Installing Magisk
Installing Magisk WILL trip KNOX
Installing Magisk for the first time REQUIRES a full data wipe (this is NOT counting the data wipe when unlocking bootloader). Backup your data before continuing.
Download Odin (for Windows) or Heimdall (for Linux) that supports your device.
Unlocking Bootloader
Unlocking the bootloader on modern Samsung devices have some caveats. The newly introduced VaultKeeper service will make the bootloader reject any unofficial partitions in some circumstances.
Allow bootloader unlocking in Developer options → OEM unlocking
Reboot to download mode: power off your device and press the download mode key combo for your device
Long press volume up to unlock the bootloader. This will wipe your data and automatically reboot.
Go through the initial setup. Skip through all the steps since data will be wiped again in later steps. Connect the device to Internet during the setup.
Enable developer options, and confirm that the OEM unlocking option exists and is grayed out. This means the VaultKeeper service has unleashed the bootloader.
Your bootloader now accepts unofficial images in download mode
Instructions
Use either samfirm.js, Frija, or Samloader to download the latest firmware zip of your device directly from Samsung servers.
Unzip the firmware and copy the AP tar file to your device. It is normally named as AP_[device_model_sw_ver].tar.md5
Press the Install button in the Magisk card
If your device does NOT have boot ramdisk, check the “Recovery Mode” option
Choose “Select and Patch a File” in method, and select the AP tar file
Start the installation, and copy the patched tar file to your PC using ADB:
adb pull /sdcard/Download/magisk_patched_[random_strings].tar
DO NOT USE MTP as it is known to corrupt large files.
Reboot to download mode. Open Odin on your PC, and flash magisk_patched.tar as AP, together with BL, CP, and CSC (NOT HOME_CSC because we want to wipe data) from the original firmware.
Your device should reboot automatically once Odin finished flashing. Agree to do a factory reset if asked.
If your device does NOT have boot ramdisk, reboot to recovery now to enable Magisk (reason stated in Magisk in Recovery).
Install the Magisk app you’ve already downloaded and launch the app. It should show a dialog asking for additional setup.
Let the app do its job and automatically reboot the device. Voila!
