Can't root rui 2.0 (Android 11), and can't install custom recovery except "los recovery" but can't do any thing with it just wiping cache and data partition.
do not try to flash custom recovery on realme ui 2.0 , it will brick your device
I need to ask, this guide will work with A88/A89 update?
sorry for noob question - I'm not familiar with mediatek devices and rooting/flashing stuff. Currently I'm running crdroid. What steps are neccessary to get rooted stock? is it:
- flash original firmware (how? SPTool?)
- issue all the commands from OP?
Or do I need anything else?

Yes. Just flash the original firmware using SP Flash-Tools. However, youmust make sure it is the full 7-8 GB ROM, and not an OTA file. Also, ensure that you are flashing the correct ROM for your model. If your model is an RMX2155, you'll need to follow this guide steps 1-through-to-10 (inclusive):
[GUIDE] REALME 7 RMX2155 GLOBAL BOOTLOADER UNLOCK
WELCOME, ALL. After a very tiring process of swapping between ROMs and changing regions, APKs, et cetera, we have finally been able to perfect the method for unlocking the bootloader of the RMX2155! This is a detailed guide aimed to give you an...
forum.xda-developers.com
If it is any other model, just do what is said to work. Unfortunately, I don't know much about the other versions.
thanks the explanation.
I've found a 2155 ROM or at least a file that's said to be - ie. I've found a file 'RMX2155export_11_C.09_2021070809260000', extracted that, there was a huge file 'RMX2155export_11_C.09_2021070809260000.ofp' inside; using oppo-decrypt from github I've got bunch of files with names that seem to be SPFlashTool ROM.
Assuming it's a proper ROM: if I have already unlocked the bootloader, do I have to flash the rom and do the 10 steps from the tutorial or could I replace recovery.img and magisk-patched boot.img and flash rooted rom immediately? Sorry if it sound noobish, but I don't want to brick the phone.
I'm curious to try to go back to stock ROM for a while, because of call quality (I believe changing it to Vietnam needed for unlock made the call quality worse) and to check the camera and it's libraries - I'm running crdroid, photo quality is disappointing no matter what GCam/settings/tweaks I use and there are only imx682/imx471 libs on the phone there are samsung libs, but diagnose apps like aida show the main sensor is imx682, but the EU version of realme 7 is said to have different back camera sensor (GM1). Not sure if RMX2151 ROMs would include proper GM1 libs if that's true about sensor differences between RMX2151 and 2155.

I tried to flash a downgrade image to my moto e 2nd gen. Now Im stuck in bootloader and a warning message for unlocked bootloder. Ive tried to flash logo.bin, and other images aswell with no luck. It keeps asking me to install a valid signed images, I don't know where to find these images. Please help!
You need to do exactly what it's asking you to do - flash valid signed images. Which model do you have (XT152x)? Which region are you in? Which version were you downgrading from?
Just so you know, downgrading the stock ROM is very highly discouraged as it can cause bricking in certain circumstances. In particular, never try to downgrade the stock ROM when the bootloader is locked. You can try flashing back the upgraded images and seeing if your phone accepts them. Be aware that the signed images must match your model number and region.

Hmm, so you went from a newer 5.0.2 build to an old 5.0.2 build? What were you downgrading to?
Go to this folder: https://mega.nz/#F!rMIhDLgR!oq5Cz_XbgZLEEysmqoYtcA
Navigate to Surnia ->5.0.2
Look for the file XT1524_RETEUALL_MOTOE2... (it's near the middle of the list)
Download and try flashing everything it in using fastboot.

I got my device back!! I did succeed to flash it with this rom "surnia_stock_5.0.2.zip" with TWRP. I did not have the patience to wait at the Motorola logo when booting, I have to wait 2-3 min and 2-3 min for services to start. for the device to boot. But now it doesn't register any sim card when at desktop?!?

Oh, you must have flashed something really wrong then. There are no 4.4.4 ROMs for this device. You would have flashed something totally incompatible and highly risky if you flashed 4.4.4 from somewhere. That may have wrecked your modem software too. Download and flash the proper XT1524-specific software with the correct modem. If you are unhappy with the performance of the stock ROM, you can flash scritch007's CM12.1.

Hi all,
Currently running Oreo (via OldDroid manual update) then LOS 15.1 (Berkley unofficial) on top, which is great but would like NFC, buttons, flashlight.
What is the best method to reinstate this functionality? I have tried the rollback for OldDroid rollback to no avail. I believe this method assumes you are rooted, which i am not.
Happy to be on EMUI 5 if necessary as i believe i can now update to Oreo OTA.
Cheers
Can i provide further pertinent information or ask elsewhere to get replies?
What did you do in the fist place to go from stock oreo to LOS 15.0 ; any links ?
Thank you.
I flashed the system image using "fastboot flash system system.img" via article https://www.xda-developers.com/lineageos-honor-view-10-huawei-mate-10-pro-project-treble/
Cheers
I think, once unrooted, you'll have to flash back stock system.

Great, thank you. I am not rooted so I extracted the system.img from STF-L09SC432B360a (from http://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/?firmware_model=STF-L09&firmware_page=0) using this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-10/how-to/guide-extracting-stock-firmware-files-t3756733
Then using that stock emui 8 system image:
"fastboot flash system system.img"
I receive the following error:
error: cannot load 'SYSTEM.img'
Any ideas?
Cheers
Another attempt at system.img extract using my windows box and the windows software referred to in https://forum.xda-developers.com/mat...files-t3756733.
This time i was able to flash the system.img successfully. When the device booted, it boot looped 3/4 times then i received :
Huawei eRecovery :
"Serious problems occurred when the phone boot, you are recommended to do factory data reset
NOTE: user data will be wiped after recovery".
I performed this reset and device booted to TWRP some commands took place but too quick (saw selinux buts thats it). Device rebooted twice then loaded Huawei eRecovery where the only option is :
Download latest version and recovery
Restore system with wifi
Entered wifi details
Getting package info from server
Getting package info failed.
Booting into TWRP the 'Factory Reset' option performs the same process that i saw when Huawei eRecovery recommended the factory data reset. Some i'm confident in what happened at that point now. Unsure as to what to try at this point. The phone does not boot into EMUI and will only boot to Huawei eRecovery.
The bootloader is unlocked, as per the process to install LineageOS 15.1 in the link in the OP. I've not checked if its still unlocked, but guess that could be causing a problem?
Just checked and bootloader is unlocked.
Interestingly the process to re lock it from the Huawei site (https://emui.huawei.com/en/unlock_step) shows that you have to use the same command to lock the bootloader as to lock it again:
Note: to re-lock the bootloader after unlocking it, restore the device’s software to the Huawei official version using a microSD card then switch the device to fastboot mode and enter “fastboot oem unlock ****************” in the computer’s command prompt, where * refers to the 16-digit unlock password. The device will then restart, and the bootloader lock status will change to “Bootloader Lock State: RELOCKED”.
If i follow those instructions i get the below error:
Code:
fastboot oem unlock **************** <-my 16 digit code
...
FAILED (remote: already fastboot unlocked)
Stop trying to lock your bootloader, it won't help you. Interresing info though.
Did it occur to you that after flashing back successfully system.img it could have been good to flash back stock recovery over twrp ?
This way you would have bootloop 3 or 4 times, and then stock recovery would have launch, not twrp.
I think a format system from this stock recovery, not twrp, would have solve your problem.
Thanks. So I can leave the boot loader unlocked at this point and run stock emui? I'll flash stock recovery. Perhaps that will suggest factory reset and then I'll be able to boot.
Thanks again.

In order to revert to the stock recovery is it necessary to flash all three recovery images from the update.app file? :
recovery_ramdisk
recovery_vendor
recovery_vbmeta
Looking at flashing the recovery_ramdisk image with the stock version i have extracted using the below:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk RECOVERY_RAMDISK.img
Noticed the stock recovery_ramdisk i extracted has a filename of 'RECOVERY_RAMDIS.img', not ending in 'K' for 'RAMDISK. Presumably i can simply rename my recovery_ramdisk to "RECOVERY_RAMDISK.img" unless a 15 character filename is a limitation, or adjust my fastboot command to :
Code:
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk RECOVERY_[B]RAMDIS[/B].img
Code:
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk RECOVERY_RAMDIS.img
Did the trick to boot back into EMUI 8. However, i still have an intermittent torch/flashlight and the navigation keys/buttons do not work.
Any ideas on where i go from here?

You'll need to be unrooted and with stock recovery for applying ota when it will be available.

This is simple about TWRP: Your phone have МТК Helio Р60 MT6771V/CA WITH Android 10.0 and it's a NEW phone now. So no developments yet.
For install GSI ROMs your need unlock bootloader and after follow the correct instructions to new phones shipped with A10!
If you only want install GSI so I suggest:
1- Have stock ROM first, always!!;
2- With security 1- you should unlock bootloader;
3- You can install GSI with stock recovery without problems.
The only part is: you cannot backup userdata.....

Cool This helps already a lot.
i unlocked the Bootloader properly, but then i got a partition error. I assume i´ve an error in the command line. The phone was anyway only an interim solution till my POco F2 was back from repair. now i use it as a playground.
fastboot erase system - there i get a partition error.
erasing the User data was sucessful
but then
fastboot flash system system.img it stops at step 1/15 again for the partition error (partition doesn´t exist) Stock rom is available.
somebody knows the options i´ve to add to the command line?

Try but REMENBER I am not responsible for any errors. Bootloader should unlocked by adb-fastboot!!
Spoiler: Instructions
1. You need know the difference about fastboot and FASTBOOTD in your device!!
Your device has bootloader mode: recovery - fastboot - reboot (system)
Stock recovery has very options: reboot system - reboot to bootloader - wipe - Enter fastboot - ...
reboot to bootloader => normal fastboot
Enter fastboot => FASTBOOTD
FASTBOOTD => some options
2. Device in fastboot
Code:
fastboot --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
vbmeta file from stock ROM or pulled from device
3.
Code:
fastboot -w
4.
Code:
fastboot reboot fastboot
(you MUST be at the FASTBOOTD menu now. If not, you will not be able to flash the GSI successfully)
5.
Code:
fastboot erase system
or
Code:
fastboot delete-logical-partition system
6.
Code:
fastboot delete-logical-partition product
- deletes the product partition, allowing a larger system partition
I not need resize-logical-partition product. But if you want:
You will need a larger system partition to flash a GSI. There are 2 ways to achieve this
6A. fastboot resize-logical-partition product 509344768
6B. fastboot resize-logical-partition system 3089272064 or 3889272064
resizes product and system partitions. This gives you about 3GB of system partitions. You can adjust or arrive at your own numbers if you want different sizes.
7.
Code:
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash system GSI.img
8.
Code:
fastboot -w
for confirm great & fast start GSI
9.
Code:
fastboot reboot bootloader
9A.
Code:
fastboot erase userdata
for confirm and boot clean
10. Reboot to system
Code:
fastboot reboot
Enjoy
I also have an N20 Pro which I received Dec 2020. Had some trouble setting it up. I got the OEM ROM from Doogee customer support and was able to extract the boot image and patch it with Magisk. I then burned it with the SP Flash tool. It wouldn't boot until I burned a special vbmeta.img to turn off encryption. Now it's working fine.
Sorry this doesn't help you with TWRP but I think most people looking for TWRP are really looking to root their phone.

Okay so what ive seen is that you should avoid flashing custom roms via adb fastboot especially with our doogee phones, and also there are many incompatiable roms so what you will need is to unlock bootloader and do the whole twrp install thing adn also install magisk
before hand install treble info from google playstore and take down the information "arm64 a/b" and search for roms with that information to install custom os/rom/gsi properly. GSI versions are more preferred if your phone supports treblle
if your twrp keeps getting wiped after reboot open file :mount your system and connect to pc via usbcable (mtp if not showing disable mtp and re- enable it )
now got to where build.prop is saved there will be a file called recovery from boot.p , copy the file to pc , open with notepad, remove everything , save and copy back to phone (overwrite)
then go ahead and install magisk
make sure your magisk is working install edxposed, riru core , and busybox ndk get the apps you need for them (edxposed manager...) and then instal and activate a module which you can test if its working(if framework is active in edxposed manager and the module working correctly then you can go ahead and
Install custom os through twrp

Hello,
I've been looking through this forum for quite a while, but I have yet to stumble upon a guide that can fix me up for taking the next step after the bootloader unlocking process. Yet, there's been lots of custom roms made for rmx2001. So here I'm with my unlocked rmx2001 or realme 6, wondering if I am missing out on something crucial for the next step because this is my first time doing something like this on a mediatek based phone. Kindly help me out pweese.. thank you;
Update:
I've dwelled deep into the forest, fought clones of sundar pichai, then finally.. successfully flashed my phone with custom recovery.
From what I've had read around this forum and other places, before flashing any custom recovery, the vbmeta.img must be flashed with a patched one, which as usual, there are rules one must follow to modify this certain android component.
This is the first for me, as per Android 8 (or Android 7 with its super confusing arb system took in place), any changes inside the recovery, system, etc are being handled by this vbmeta module.
It seems that vbmeta.img changes for every android or system update and to patch this vbmeta.img, the android version must be the same as what the patch corresponds to... (correct me if I'm wrong; this is my understanding based solely from what I have read, please take this with a big chunk of salt).
I currently have the b.57 update installed on my device, and I only found b.55 here on the next forum's page... the point is I have to wait for the latest patch of vbmeta b.57. Am I understanding this correctly, or am I just talking in elven language to myself? Anyway thank you for reading.
zero help, good for nothing advices. Search on other forums ,you Will get at least real help

g'day to you sire *tip*, sorry for the late response. Before flashing any custom recovery;
make sure your phone is unlocked,
- boot to bootloader,
- flash vbmeta.img (this assuming you will not be using realme UI or stock ROM in that case, because chances are you can't go back once you've flashed this image [although not entirely sure])
code here:
Code:
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
- finally, flash your custom recovery
code here:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery <name of the file>.img
Now, I tried flashing twrp, but for some reason, it didn't work. I personally got recommended to use Pitch Black Recovery Project, basically a fork from twrp. It couldn't read my sdcard, but it has better ui compared to twrp. That said, you still can flash custom rom by adb shell through pbrp.

Do you a vbmeta.img for the latest patches b.59 or any guide to extract vbmeta, Just like you said the vbmeta corresponds with the patch.

No, we don't need to modify anything to it.
--disable-verity and --disable-verification options to fastboot will patch it and flash automatically for you.
Also you can use vbmeta.img from any version of stock .ozip.
I am a Realme C12 user.
Thanks

So after i flash the stock recovery should I flash the ozip there? And thanks for all the information.
Hey there,
Gone through every other thread in XDA and most other blogs already. I'm pretty used to rooting and modding android devices, still i somehow find rooting this dirty device harder than I expected.
It's been 2 days now and I could really use some 1-1 help for my case. So, my stock is MIUI Global 11.0.8 Stable 11.0.8.0 PCQINXM, I already unlocked the bootloader and flashed the latest PBRP. On attempting to flash Magisk, I don't find any success regardless of error/ no error messages.
1. I extracted my boot.img with
i) adb shell dd if=/dev/block/by-name/boot of=/sdcard/boot.img
ii) from my ROM via xiaomifirmwareupdater.com repo
2. Used recovery.img that came with olivewood's PBRP.
Patched both of them via Magisk Manager with Recovery Mode checked on.
3. Used vbmeta.img that came with stock ROM.
4. Flashed using fastboot flash boot c:\boot.img
fastboot flash recovery c:\recovery.img
fastboot flash vbmeta c:\vbmeta.img
Still can't seem to complete the root successfully.
What am i doing wrong?
P.S.: I found that flashing a recovery patched this way leads to issues, that I'm stuck in fastboot even if I try to boot to system or PBRP recovery. Flashing the original recovery.img from PBRP repo gets back the recovery menu.
