Since TWRP is still not ported to V10, so i decided to make a prerooted-boot.img.
Download Link
You can flash this boot.img to root your Honor V10 AL20C00 (6GB+128GB China Edition) on stock firmware (B132)
Usage:
0. Unlock bootloader and close find my phone.
1. Power off your phone
2. Plug your phone to computer
3. Hold power and volume down until boot into fastboot mode
4. flash this boot.img by adb ( fastboot flash ramdisk boot-root-b122.img), please download adb by yourself
5. reboot (fastboot reboot)
Your phone may reboot twice, and you'll get root access.
Declaim:
I only test this on my own phone (BKL-AL20C00), Use this on your own risk. I'm not responsible for your phone's damage.
using this tool means you accept this.
Thanks:

Does this root work on stock BKL-AL20 8.0.0.132 update?
Same question. I got BKL-L09 8.0.0.120
No bootloader unlock needed? And i also hope, someone can confirm this on BKL-09 - 120 .
They didn't lock bootloader? Already preorder international unit
Hi,
Can you be a little more specific? Did you unlock your Bootloader first? When you say stock firmware B132, do you mean version 8.0.0.132 ? Thank you in advance for your reply!
Custom Recovery for V10
Hi ppl. Has a custom recovery been ported for the V10. I have managed to root my phone using the above method, but since there is no custom recovery available, I am unable to flash any mod / roms, etc.
I'm hesitant to try this without more information

Hi harshshah17,
Did you unlock your bootloader first? I think there are methods to flash zip files without having a custom REC. Try Flashfire apk. I've read the phone can get even more "restricted" (many features get blocked) once you root your Honor V10. Is it true in your case? Thanks in advance for your reply.

Ofcourse i have unlocked my bootloader..Its only after that, that you can root. With regard to your question, I have not experienced any sort of "restriction" with my Honor View 10 post rooting. Seems to be working just as normal. The only thing is that i am unable to install the OTA update.
The reason I am asking for a custom recovery is because i need to remove Super SU and install Magisk instead. In order to remove super SU i need to flash an uninstall zip (I know you a can remove it from the Super SU options, but that doesn't seem to be working). I can certainly use flashfire to flash the uninstall zip but then my phone will be unrooted and I wont be able to flash magisk via flashfire.
If anyone has a solution for the above, suggestions will be appreciated. Thanks!

U can remove root by flashing the stock ramdisk.img, which can be extracted from the official full-ota update.app
Only thing I've seen that doesn't work with root is face unlock. Also how can I flash magisk since there isn't a recovery yet. Can I use flashify?

Download Firmware Finder for Huawei in Play store. They got partial and full OTAs there.
By the way, flashing custom ROMs for V10 is now also thru Fastboot. So I guess TWRP isn't applicable for V10? Maybe Magisk can also be flashed using Fastboot. I will try to research for custom ROM with Magisk. So far, I only see SuperSU pre-installed. ?

I did download that and the extractor tool but it says I need the update.app file to extract the boot image an I've yet to find that in either of the three files I tried.
So I know how to use fastboot but will I need the boot image first or can I just flash magisk. The current root method installs su. That's where I'm kind of stuck as far because I've always read that you have to uninstall su first but then wouldn't I lose the ability to flash magisk? I'm currently just rooted on the stock rom.
Didn't even know there was a custom rom hadn't seen it on here yet.

Do you have BKL-AL20? Here's a non-rooted boot image. I'm not sure if it can be used on other variants / versions. If you have another variant, I can find it for you.

It should be "fastboot flash ramdisk <boot image name>".
Second, if it doesn't help, the next step is to enter e-recovery mode. Press Volume Up + Power for 15 seconds. Follow the prompts and it should download the full OTA for you. I think you need your Huawei ID in the process (and a good Wifi signal).
Lastly, I think this is a sure bet but will cost you, google "funkyhuawei honor v10 rebranding guide". You will find a reddit link. They are the only team who "holds" BKL-L09 Full OTA roms that I know of. You need to buy "credits" to download OTAs and unbrick your phone. Unfortunately, team MT (team behind Firmware Finder) hasn't got a hold of a full OTA of BKL-L09.
From my experience, the first suggested solution should already work. I hope you don't get to the third solution.

Lineage always messes up going back to stock roms. I've had this problem to on 20g to after being on lineage. You'll have to kdz to 20f and get twrp. I had put this on the flashing instructions you must be on 20f/g. .

I'm no developer. I just want to update without rooting or custom recovery. I try it 2 ways, and fails the normal way, and the stock recovery doesn't recognize the update.zip the 2nd way. I probably have it named wrong. Either way, I doubt it's impossible. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

I don't want to flash a rom. I asked how to flash the stock update from the stock recovery because the update errors out when I try to do it the normal ota way. There is an option to update from SD in the stock recovery. It's just that it doesn't recognize the stock update.zip in the stock recovery because I probably don't have it named right. Was just wondering if anyone knew what to name it, where to download the update.zip, how to update with it etc. Didn't mean to offend anybody ?

at least 20f and root required.
saw nobody put it up so i decided i would.
Mine still has rooted 10c. How to update to this latest ROM and rooted ? TIA
Does 7.0 improve idling/sleeping battery ?
Yes that is probably one of its biggest changes vs MM.
Follow this guide to a T: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g-pad-83/development/nougat-7-0-v521-guide-to-update-v521-lg-t3533338
then boot into recovery, copy my TWRP backup to internal/microsd/usb, in TWRP restore the system and boot partitions that are automatically checked.
Download the latest systemless or system mode supersu.zip and copy it to the main install folder C:\Program Files x86\Minimal ADB and Fastboot\.
Then in twrp click ADB sideload > do not check anything to erase > open minimal adb/fastboot and type adb sideload whateveryounamedyoursupersuzipfile.zip and you should be good to go.

Anyone tried this on LG G6?
This can relock G6 bootloader like for warranty purpose?
Which functions are available/unavailable for G6
The only functions that are not available are flash stock recovery and flash factory image. The others are all available. Locking the bootloader you can brick your phone, the tool will send just a fastboot command. I've tested the bootloader unlocking procedure for lg g6 and twrp flash. There are a lot of others function that i've not tested but they should work (Apk Installer, reboot commands, zip flasher, ....)

You always need the LG Developer site. This tool is done to simplify processes not to bypass them. With this tool you will never use the terminal anymore.

The command is there but you can brick your phone. I think you need of a QFIL stock rom to relock bootloader. But i think Lg has a database with all device unlocked...

Just tried to unlock my g6. It works. Then I tried to flash recovery, but, maybe I'd have had to reboot phone prior to flash recovery, infact after reboot the recovery installed was the stock one. So I flashed it via fastboot command manually...
Anyway, simple and working. Gread job!

Have tried the H870 one, TWRP 3.1.1, the one that the software automatically download from server. The final message saied it was installed correctly, but after reboot, normal recovery was presented (the one that reset phone to factory reset, and infact it has resetted the phone)

Format data from twrp
@mauronofrio Ok, I solved and reinstalled from scratch everything. What went wrong, I think, is that after TWRP installation I haven't installed Magisk immediately.
Using a tool like your can induce people to just push a button and not follow every step of a good unlocking procedure. Anyway, it was my fault. Your tool works perfectly
Hi,
I just updated my HW Mate 10 pro to the latest version which includes face recognition. It worked as expected until I rooted the phone with FHMate10Tool. I tried using another method called Magisk but I got an error when trying to apply it through TWRP so I couldnt proceed with this method.
Anyways, after rooting, I get an error saying that my facial features werent recognized, in simple words, front camera wont open, therefore, it wouldnt work.
I even tried to unroot but even after doing factory reset, I can't seem to make it work.
Any thoughts? Please see PS below:

The weird thing is that I ran a factory reset to remove any root stuff and I still cannot use the face unlock feature due to the error mentioned above.
I had the phone rooted and bootloader unlocked and worked until I rooted the phone.

It's because of FH Root tool.
Download your stock ramdisk from here: https://mega.nz/#!BWxElaRA!lUb-u-jXaPSAN8OrbyG4tEKCWttvqPxMPOVBn6h1PRY
Then flash it using 'fastboot flash ramdisk RAMDISK_BLA-L29C605B135.img'
Then flash Magisk from TWRP.
Factory reset only resets /data, root is kept in your ramdisk (Well. App is kept in /data, but it's just an app.)

Yes, both cameras work as expected. The only flaw is for the face recognition for unlock.

Thanks for your help on this. I just flashed the ramdisk as you told me to. By any chance, do you have the URL to instructions to root with this method? Ive found a few but they dont seem to work for me.
Thanks once again!

I just confirmed that after adding the boot image you provided, I get an error stating that there's no boot image (error when trying to get into recovery mode). The good thing is that the phone can boot normally to Android, it just freaked the cr#p out of me!

It's the stock ramdisk for your firmware, so it shouldn't cause any problems. However, if you have no recovery_ramdisk or it's incorrect it wouldn't be able to get to recovery.

Thanks! Yeah, apparently the ramdisk doesnt belong to this phone. I was able to install TWRP. I'm following the guides you provided as I type this. Let me go through these and I'll get back with you!
It works now! The problem I was having is that I tried installing the Magisk from TWRP as ZIP (which this time I couldnt find anywhere on the phone after copying it via graphical interface in android) so I just ran this command:
adb sideload Filepath\Magisk.zip
This installed Magisk on my home screen and I applied the patch from the app. I rebooted and voilá! it works now. It even had the previous configuration already applied, it recognized my face without even setting it up again.
As the phone was already rooted, Im not sure if this app really roots the phone as it didnt require a factory reset as other methods do, but the issue is now fixed!
Thank you for your support on this matter!

It does not require a factory reset. That was only needed before when TWRP couldn't decrypt phone, and it can now thanks to zxz0o0 and Pretoriano80. Then you had to Format Data to flash as Magisk installs some things to /data (contrary to what I said earlier, but it does need to patch ramdisk to function ). SuperSU only places its apk in /data/ while the rest lives in ramdisk.

I had no problem with this recovery
My device was unlocked by vendor. I'm unable to boot into twrp to root my device. The flashing is successful but it will only boot in a simple recovery where I can only install an "update.zip".
Have tried this https://forum.xda-developers.com/z5...-guide-lenovo-z5-pro-gt-t3915945#post81055547 but the problem remains.
Hope anyone can help. I need to root my device. Thanks

Have the same scenario as you but I haven't done the tutorial yet as I read your post and I got concerned. Have you fix you issue? Is it safe to do this tutorial?
No solution so far. No twrp and no root
Now I have flashed the original rom with ZUI 10. Works well and updated to ZUI 11.

I've read somewhere that you need to flash vbmeta.img if verified boot is enabled, however I couldn't find the correct img to flash anywhere. Maybe if we ask someone that has the phone already rooted.

I gave up on clublenovo. They require SMS authentication to post so even when you log in you can't post and download. TWRP 3.3.1 is also available from 4PDA. That's what I used.
I was able to flash the TWRP 3.3.1 but i cant root nor i cant flash anything as the folders inside the sdcard directory is showing in weird names

You need to decrypt the internal storage.
normally this is done by entering to ping code to unlock the phone in TWRP on start up.

Its the pin code you use to open the phone.
And enabling does not remove data, but it does give twrp read/write permission
Is it possible to implement support for OTA updates through TWRP?

i had the same issue and discover a solution
1) you have to manually go to your phone after you finish the flash below. DO NOT cmd fastboot reboot as it will flash stock
recovery
a) fastboot flash recovery twrp.img ( i rename the tweak recovery file to twrp.img)
b) http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=973179&st=0
(tweak recovery version 3.31)
2) after flash quickly go to your phone fastboot mode ( reminder again: do not tyoe fastboot reboot after flash successful appear in cmd)
3) manually select recovery , select english then select reboot and TWRP will appear
issues
1) i cannot manually tweak recovery via phone ( power +volume down ) as stock recovery will appear again.
A) so you need to go your PC to redo flash recovery again
B) i did a back up and redo PC flassh recovery again and mine files are stored successful
c) there is no install root in TWRP
D) about backup...
.best to back up via OTA-USB. pixel GCI crash ( QUALCOMM CRASH DUMP MODE ) my phone and my restore
file was missing as TWRP rename the restore file. spent one hour it so decide to do stock rom
current
a) I have not flash any rom yet and my original ANTUTU benchmark hovers around 300000 to 350000 based on vendor custom global rom
b) my phone model is 8gb 128gb android version 9 and lenovo version 11.0.084
c) updatess and NFC not supported
d) i opt not too root
e) bootloader still unlock
REQUEST...
would appreciate a ROM recommendation
a) have anyone flash a rom (not china stock rom) wirh an antutu beachmark abve 400000 ?
from a novice... after 2 weeks i can finally flash tweak recovery from the phonE.

If you boot your ZUI system, your twrp will be overwritten by a stock recovery.
However if you flash magisk, your twrp won't be overwritten anymore. If you want to preserve your twrp after rebooting on ZUI, you need to flash magisk.
whatever I do.. the twrp wont be installed (let alone the root/magisk). ADB does say the twrp is flashed... but it will always boot to or the bootloader.. or the system (not the lenovo recovery or twrp recovery). Quiet frustrating... what can I do? Want this boy rooted!
Edit: done. The twrp linked in the tutorial is not correct use this one: https://drive.google.com/file/d/13mt0RLmT83BHSUBpH-J7EhaeZQ-MPYUu/view
That worked!
I want to unlock my bootloader but the site where you request the image file for unlocking it wont accept my IMEI1.. any idea guys?

Wow, thank you very much for the full name link. I think I found something great. I think, now, you can try to root directly on latest firmware, and save lots of time. I will test it... and post it soon.
How to download the latest update as full-sized, factory stock roms
Under Construction....
Sorry for deleting this post.
BS team never open the stock rom download site. I think we can build one, but I couldn't gather enough information.
I was able to find all my own factory stock rom OTAs including the latest, but not others due to lack of information. Further problem is that after I share how to find & download your own latest factory stock rom directly, that site is really slowed down now. Maybe lots read it, download, never share, or due to other reason... The region and ota link is enough to build the stock rom download site, but now the server is slowed down, no one shares... so I stop here.
I will re-open this if I could gather enough information.
wga0 said:
Hey guys, I realized that I neither need to provide a detailed explain nor can.
I can't attach any files, pictures, links... even I can write now. There are too much restriction.
(I must delete all links I included here You can search it in xda-dev forum)
So, here's the shortest and fastest way to root your black shark 2 global.
If anybody want a long detail, more safe way, let me know. I will add later if possible.
If something goes wrong, end to brick your phone, you can always revive that with safe way.
As you know, though safety is increased greatly (Thanks very much to a/b slot system),
but accident can happen anytime. It's on your own responsibility, at your own risk.
Pre-Requirements:
adb/fastboot drivers, Magisk Manager latest version, global OTA1 update
(I skip all the details of 3 firmware regions, payload_dumper, twrp, all others)
(Backup your data. It requires several factory reset)
Steps (also skip all detail. I wish you familiar with adb, fastboot, a/b slot)
1. Unlock the bootloader
1) fastboot oem bs2_unlock (Thanks greatly to Bave Lee)
2) fastboot oem bs2_unlock_critical (I'm not certain this is mandatory, I just do it at first)
2. flash the global OTA1 update and reboot
1) find and set active your not using slot
fastboot getvar all
fastboot set_active x
2) flash the global OTA1 images to that slot
fastboot flash partition_x partition.img (flash all of it, not partially)
fastboot reboot (It will be reboot again to do factory reset, than will boot successfully)
3. Patch the boot.img with Magisk Manager and flash it
Now, you have a working old version boot image. Patch it, flash it and reboot
4. Backup the latest, your own boot.img
Now, your phone is rooted with old version. Backup your original latest boot image
1) adb shell
su
dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/boot_x(your using_latest slot) of=...(any folder you prefer)/boot.img
2) copy the boot.img to your PC (with adb pull or mtp)
5. patch your own latest boot.img
1) Set back the active slot to your original slot, reboot
2) do factory reset (because of using OTA1, OTA2 update request will be remained to your current slot)
3) push the magisk manager, boot.img again and repeat the job (patch, pull out, reboot, flash and reboot again)
6. Now, you have the latest updated, rooted phone with stock & modified boot image
7. Don't forget to backup all your stock ROM before doing anything!!

If you done well, you can check the root status. It's rooted with magisk systemless root, all function's normal.
And be careful. Don't share the patched or stock boot image directly. There's multiple global version.
This is the latest version from my own black shark 2 global. It definitely different from yours.
If you flash different region version, your phone will be bricked. That's why I didn't share it and write this long method.
(If anyone want, I will explain details later with more safe way, what I did. But It's quite long way, takes long time)

You mean your revision is SKYW1911010OS00MP5. Right? If you didn't try anything to your roms, you'll have previous revision SKY1909192OS00MP4 at the inactive slot. Here is the factory boot image of it. How to root is similar as above.
Before doing, backup all your data and unlock the bootloader. In this time, unlock_critical is not needed.
1. adb reboot bootloader
2. fastboot getvar current-slot (let's assume it returns b)
fastboot set_active a <- set the opposite slot as active
3. fastboot reboot
After factory reset, this will bring you to previous revision SKYW1909192OS00MP4. Install Magisk Manager and patch the boot image.
4. adb pull /sdcard/Download/patch_boot.img (let's assume you save the image to Download directory)
5. fastboot flash boot_a patch_boot.img <- flash that patched image to same slot (you just set active)
Your phone is now rooted with previous revision. You can backup all of your latest stock rom.
6. adb shell
7. su
8. dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/boot_b of=/sdcard/Download/boot.img <- example of boot image. For insurance, just backup all your stock roms.
Now back to your original latest slot, root your own image.
9. fastboot set_active b
and repeat the rooting again with your own roms.
As you know, adb command can be used with USB Debugging, fastboot can be used in bootloader mode.
Or... if you need all of those images, let me know. I will upload full MP4 OTA factory images for your region. You can flash this to your inactive slot and it will fix all problems during updating to MP5 to your active slot.
