Hello friends
I just want to share how to root A21S stock rom in case anybody needs it:
1. Unlock bootloader
2. (On PC) Extract boot.img.lz4 from AP...tar file, then copy it to phone
3. (On phone) Install ZArchiver to extract boot.img from boot.img.lz4
4. (On phone) Install Magisk_patched_for_A21S.apk (thank grccorps for this excellent magisk) and patch the boot.img that you have just extracted from step 3
5. (On PC) Copy magisk_patched-22104_0x2Ov.img (in phone\download) to pc, rename it to boot.img
6. (On PC) Use 7zip to pack boot.img from step 5 into boot.tar
7. (On PC) Use odin to flash boot.tar from step 6 (in AP slot)
Done. Enjoy.
In case you don't want to do a full step by step like above, you can use my already patched boot.tar below, just download and flash it via odin then after reboot install Magisk_patched_for_A21S.apk

Hello,
My phone got stuck at the same screen and no button is answering. I also have the U5 version.
How did you manage to recover the phone?
Thank you in advance.

Plug usb to laptop, press and hold all buttons (power, volume up, volume down) for 10 seconds your phone will reboot. Release all buttons, then press and hold volume up and volume down and quickly plug usb to phone, your phone will enter download mod where you can flash stock firmware via odin.
I see references to U3 and U5. I have a SM-A215U. Did you mean 5U and not U5? Also, someone asked above if this wipes your data. I too am wondering the same. Thanks!

Ah thanks. Having trouble finding root instructions for mine, and starting to be somewhat sure they don't exist. So many garbagey sites with bad info. This is the only site I ever see the real deal.
Got my SM-A217F rooted first attempt,
So what i did was.....
1) used Frija-v1.4.4 to download my latest stock firmware "SM-A217F_1_20210807114045_mzeyu27v8u_fac.zip"
2) Extracted the zip file and flashed the 4 files with "Odin3_v3.14.4"
3) after that i let the phone restart and boot up entered my google account details etc etc
4) on PC i used winrar and extracted the "boot.img.lz4" file only from "AP_A217FXXU6CUH1_CL21842546_QB42174009_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT_meta_RKEY_OS11.tar.md5"
5) on PC i then used "lz4_win64_v1_9_3" i copied the extracted "boot.img.lz4" file into the "lz4_win64_v1_9_3" folder
6) op PC inside the "lz4_win64_v1_9_3" folder i dragged the "boot.img.lz4" file onto "lz4.exe" wich created a new file "boot.img"
7) copied the "boot.img" file onto my phones internal storage
8) on phone i installed "Magisk_patched_for_A21S.apk" and opened it --> chose "Install" -->"select and patch a file" --> select "boot.img" from step 7 --> normal android way
9) That created a "magisk_patched-22104_0x2Ov.img" file in my phones "download" folder
10) Renamed that "magisk_patched-22104_0x2Ov.img" to "boot.img" on my phone
11) i then used "ZArchiver" and compressed that "boot.img" i just renamed from "boot.img" to "boot.tar"
12) Copied the "boot.tar" file to my pc and renamed it to "boot.img.tar" on my pc
13) On PC i used "Odin3_v3.14.4" and flashed the "boot.img.tar" file to my device, i left "Auto reboot" and "F reset time" ticked
14) after flashing and getting the green "PASS" logo i left my phone pluged into the the pc the whole time while the phone was restarting
15) after phone rebooted i installed "Magisk" with the "Magisk_patched_for_A21S" app --> let it reboot again after install

AND THATS IT
ONE A21S SUCCESSFULLY ROOTED

How to root a217fxxs7cui3 on 7th bootloader??
Hello. Is it possible to root with android 11 binary 8?

Hello all,
First of all the story.
I used the script to rebrand, it has a fail but the phone still working.
One evening, i decided to wipe all by twrp and re run the unbrand script..... that was a huge error, the phone boot but boot loop, and after, the script stuck an no recognise the twrp on the phone.
Tried lot of things like flashing recovery etc in fastboot but nothing else happen than a boot and a black screen with nav bar only.
At this point i think the problem is that i was unable to flash cust.img with fastboot
Whad did I Do?
(Bootloarder must be unlock)
1st: Crying.
2nd: read tons of things on XDA
3rd: Try to re run the script but fail because the phone was still rooted.
4th: Crying
5th: Read lot of other things on XDA
6th: this is the good IDEA
7th: Download Huawei firmware finder
8th: Download Huawei Multitool
9th: Download Huawei Update Extractor
10th: download by the tool the full OTA firmware and dependencies (in my case VTR-L09C432)
11th: extract the update.app (chose "other" for phone model) from the big "update.zip" dowloaded before an put it in a folder of your choice
12th: extract the update.app from the "update_all_hw_xxx" dowloaded before an put it in other folders, just incase of files could have the same names (not sure of it)
13th: run Huawei Multitool (il will create a folder in the path of where the app is when you click, the folder you need is "unbrick")
14th: choose 6 on Huawei multi tool, it will show you what img's you need, and you need everthing exept data.img (the cus.img is in folder wehre you extract update_all_hw_xxx) in "unbrick" folder -> Place the .img needed in the "unbrick" folder (very important)
15th: boot your phone in bootloader mode (phone off, vol-down+plug USB)
16th: clic the button to launch procedure (press N)
17th: have a coffee during the upload it'll ask to reboot
18th: If the problem is solved: cool, stop here
IF NOT: shutdown the phone
19th: Go in classic recovery: Phone off, Vol-Up + Plug USB, when huawei logo stop pressing vol-up
DO NOT BOOT eRecovery, it will not help
20th: in classic recovery do factory reset AND cache reset
21th Reboot
You can relock your bootloader if you want with your code.
The only thing i don't know to do and if someone can telle me is, before the flash of every things or at a moment, if i can flash via ADB the OEM info for an official bootloader relock.
Thx to @mankindtw, @worstenbrood and @inside!out
Hope it will help, it work for me.
edit: can an admin put my title in bold?

When you download the 3 files of the firmware, place them where you want.
When you lauchn Huawei Multitool, it will create the "unbrick" folder in the Huawei Multitool folder (my bad) not "brick", i update the first post.
When you use Huawei Update Extractor, you have choices for type of firmware, chose other.

Hello. Your post has been very helpful, after hours I've now managed to make some progress. All seems to have gone well after following your instructions, however at the end I'm unable to do a factory reset. At most it gets to 6% then fails. Any ideas on what may be going on?
I'm starting to think the phone may be beyond saving, all for one stupid mistake while rooting .
I can't find "other" or "other model" folder.

omg, how do you do that? you mean a advanced mode is in recovery mode or erecovery mode? I brought p10 at bell, I just couldnt find its firmware number.
ive done everything in this thread. the multitool installer finished without errors, then i did vol up + vol down + power, and it froze at 5 percent "installing update" then entered a reboot loop. then i tried a factory reset with vol up + power and it stoped at 25 percent.

opt 6 is in my memory "unbrick" or recover.
You have to put all the .img files needed exept data.img that is not possible to heve because this file is on your phone and encrypted.
Thanks for helping me, how can I tell what .img files are needed? I can't see anything that will tell me this?

I'm sorry, I'm a bit confused on the intructions:-
I downloaded the full update zip file from the url using the firmware finder, there was another url link that came up called full/public/update - do I need the zip for this too?
I extracted the update zip to a folder and then extracted the update.app file using the Huawei update extractor.
Now I have a very long list of .img files in the extractor and I'm not clear what I need to do next i.e do I move them all into the unbrick folder on the tool?
Hi, I have since been able to extract the right files for the multi-tool. I extracted them again from the extractor. I now have placed them into the unbrick file. My problem now is that I can't run the tool - when I open the multi-tool .bat file its asking for a proxy port, where can I find this?
Hi,(I am spanish sorry about my english)
after a long time searching how to rollback finally I have found the way thanking to this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/p10/how-to/success-downgrade-oreo-to-nougat-t3729659.
In the thread the way to rollback isn't very extended explained so i decided to create mine and explain easy.
My phone is a Huawei P10 L29c432B.... .
Steps:
1- Download HWOTA8 from--https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2D9GdWntw69U3N2aDEzZjY2S1E/view
2-Download Firmare L29C900B217 or L09C900B217 depending your model (only are 2 downloads) fromhttp://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/?firmware_model=VTR-L29c900&firmware_page=0
3-Delete the row "echo - - update_package...... update_data public. zip..." from the file "META-INF>com>google>android>update-binary" from hwota8_update.zip from the downloaded folder HWOTA8.
4. Create HWOTA8 folder and copy the following files: hwota8_update and MHA_RECOVERY8_NoCheck.img (from HWOTA8 folder), and the downloaded firmware files. After copu the firmware files you have to rename them one has to be named "update.zip" and the other one "update_all_hw.zip" (don't write.zip extension).
5- Now you have to rewrite the recovery with twrp, for that you have to go to fastbood (VOL- and Power) mode and connect to the pc. Then go to Uncompresed HWOTA8 folder and run "Replace_Recovery.bat" after that you will have the recovery TWRP installed.
6- Finally you have to to go to recovery pressing VOL+ and power button then go to Install adn search sd_external and inside HWOTA8 folder from sd card install "hwota8_update.zip". The device will resboot and start installing the nougat rom, but after that you will have to rebrand to L29c432.... to unlock all the functions.
That's all now you will have your device rollbacked from Oreo to Nougat.
Hi!
Thx for this guid, it seems to be clearly and good to understand! I have only one problem: i can not find the row "echo - - update_package...... update_data public. zip..." from the file "META-INF>com>google>android>update-binary" from hwota8_update.zip from the downloaded folder HWOTA8 for changing... ???
I tried with notepad++, but i can not do this... How did you get this step working?
Thx a lot!

You have to unzip the hwota8_update.zip file into another location, edit the extracted update_binary file and then repack the zip. The update_binary file in HWOTA8_<date>.zip is a binary file and shouldn't be edited with a text editor.

When the phone is off an you will hold "Power" and "Volume+" button to boot into TWRP, just hold "Volume+" after phone is vibrating... Then you will boot into TWRP...

The fact is that the recovery proccess is a **** in this model. Try to power completely off the phone and the Pess POWER + VOL+ when you feel the phone vibrates retire the press of power button and still pressing VOL+ button by this way sometime it goes ok. If TWRP load go ahead with the followings steps.
Other way it to reinstall again TWRP untill it loads.
Let me know if you suceed, good luck.
4. Create HWOTA8 folder and copy the following files: hwota8_update and MHA_RECOVERY8_NoCheck.img (from HWOTA8 folder), and the downloaded firmware files. After copu the firmware files you have to rename them one has to be named "update.zip" and the other one "update_all_hw.zip" (don't write.zip extension).
2. Download Firmare L29C900B217 or L09C900B217 depending your model (only are 2 downloads) fromhttp://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/?firmware_model=VTR-L29c900&firmware_page=0
non-functional link?
How exactly is it to be?

just to let you know that nothing worked,
went to a shop, they tried everything, uploaded older firmwares, but after that the phone died, only black screen, couldn't even switch it on.
warranty did the trick
the guys replaced the mainboard, nothing else helped
so i'm waiting now for the official update
Good day! Can I use this method for installing Official Oreo from Beta? What I would like to do, is skip the deleting of row then just flash the twrp and continue with installation process.
I'm on VTR-L29C636B361.
I would like to rollback to Nougat, for root reasons. I'm trying to follow this method, but I'm not able to find the right files. All I succeded to find is the "update.zip", from Firmware Finder website, but no signs regarding others mentioned ("update_all_hw.zip"). Where can I dowload the right files?
Moreover: I flashed TWRP 3.2.1. I would like to go back on stock recovery, but again I'm facing a lot of problems. I would like to extract from update.app I have (from "update.zip" above mentioned), but HuaweiUpdateExtractor gives me a lot of error. Any help?
Thanks!

At the HWFF website the link leads you to you need to click the "filelist" (not only the "update"), that will give you links to all the files needed.
For the rest I am not sure, would also like to get back to the stock recovery but so far found no way to do so...

I can give you recovery.img and recovery2.img for VTR-L29C636B162. I flashed this and then roll back to Nougat (B172) with FF.

5- Now you have to rewrite the recovery with twrp, for that you have to go to fastbood (VOL- and Power) mode and connect to the pc. Then go to Uncompresed HWOTA8 folder and run "Replace_Recovery.bat" after that you will have the recovery TWRP installed.
6- Finally you have to to go to recovery pressing VOL+ and power button then go to Install adn search sd_external and inside HWOTA8 folder from sd card install "hwota8_update.zip". The device will resboot and start installing the nougat rom, but after that you will have to rebrand to L29c432.... to unlock all the functions.
That's all now you will have your device rollbacked from Oreo to Nougat.

Hi, I have one question
Your phone was VTR-L29 C432 and you used the firmware of VTR-L29 C900, so can I use the C900 in any version to rollback and after that, what would be my version? C432 or C900?
I'm asking because for some reason I have VTR-L09 8.0.0.046(04VT) and I want to rollback, then rebrand and finally upgrade to VTR-L29 C432 with a custom kernel.
Thanks a lot!
This guide realy work ??
hello, I test by cons I have a problem, once flash hwota8_update.zip, it tries to restart in recovery and redémre on oreo, a solution?
Hello, I have a problem in the rocovery that I flash wota8_update.zip I have E: unknown command [errno]
Updater process ended with ERROR: 9
Error installing zip file '/external_sd/HWOTA8/update.zip
Maybe this is a silly question. Do we need to change the recovery file since MHA is a code name for MATE 9. P10 use VTR. Is it still usable?
Hi, it would be possible TWRP for ULEFONE S8 PRO, this phone comes with a Trojan in the sound recorder, and is installed in the system part, so if I do not root or install TWRP I can not delete it. If any developer can help us and give us some solution ... I sent several emails to ULEFONE and they do not answer. The Trojan was detected by ESET NOD 32 MOBILE.
Thank you
up! All the tutorial have wrong TWROP too that make the item reboot only to TWRP
root ok
well, after two days trying, root made.
1- flash official rom with sp flash tool and rom downloaded from ulefone.com/download/s8pro.html (do not use flasher from this web, use sp flash tool)
2- download ulefone s8 pro toolkit, put phone in fastboot mode (power+vol up), select fastboot
3- download super su last version from official chainfire web, copy supersu file and noverity.zip from file downloaded in point 2 into an sd card and put into phone.
4- execute ulefone s8 pro toolkit.exe, option 41, connect phone. phone prompt if wish unlock bootloader, vol up for yes. phone reboot into twrp
5- in twrp, first go into wipe-advanced wipe-select data-repair or change file system-change file system->first change to exFAT, second change to EXT4 (the original part type)
6- install from sdcard, first supersu, second noverity.zip
7- reboot
thats all!

Can you link the s8 pro toolkit (even in private message) since the one I have just bootloop TWRP and doesn't allow me to do something...thank you!
Another way to root, but no TWRP is to patch the boot.ini extracted by the firmware zip , patch it with magisk manager and replace the original one with the patched one via ADB.Then you can update magisk by magisk tool everytime, the phone won't brick, just no ways to update....
thank you !

As a complete novice in rooting, thank you so much for this explanation. It worked a treat. I had already re-installed ulefone stock rom but these steps got me back rooted. Thanks again. I have been reading these threads for some time but just registered today to say thank you.
still no linlk to tool software?
Hi! I'm pinging the topic. Has anyone successfully rooted his Ulefone S8 PRO? Unfortunately, mine goes into the bootloop after installing any kind of custom recovery
hello! does anyone have a working link to stock rom? ulefone website link doesn't work

J6OOG updated to the last version (android 10)
stucks in boot after flashing TWRP and MAGISK
Is there a way to root it. . . .
NB: Iwas on PIE(9) ..and rooted by magisk. .
THANK's. . .
after a week of googling I finally found a tutorial on how to root another galaxy on android 10.
I tried this method on my J6 and it works.
today i will share it with you ....
but know that .....
- I am not a developer ...
- this method worked for me .. it might not for you ..
- I could not be responsible for probable damage ...
- you can always wait for an official method ...
- if you want to try it then ...... I guess you know what :
a root..bootloader..USB debugging…OEM unlock…drivers…odin..magisk..7zip ... data loss ... warranty .. and ....
I tried this method on my J600G/DS…i don’t know if it works on other variants…
1) download your latest firmware…mine is XME-J600GDXU6CTCA
2) extract it in a folder on your PC
3) check that you have enough space on your phone (+ 7GO free)
3) copy the AP file from the folder to your phone…internal or SDCard (use a USB flash disk)… cable transfer can corrupt data…
4 )Install Latest Magisk Manager and open it
5) « magisk is not installed »…tap on.. « install »..and « install » in next window…and allow…
6) navigate to your AP file and select it and wait until the process completes..
7) go to Download folder and copy “magisk_patched.tar” to your PC ..folder where firmware was extracted…
8) connect phone to PC and enter Download mode..
9) with Odin flash the 4 files..BL..CP..CSC..and in AP select “ magisk_patched.tar” file..
10) when done and system boot finished..configure your device…
11) install magisk manager again..and open it…it will say “Requires additional setup”
12) tap “OK”..wait..the device will reboot..
YOU ARE ROOTED
**download and install Busybox from Magisk..
**TitaniumBackup will crash…download “Tbcrash fixer” from “ mobilism forum ”
**download and install “debloater” module from Magisk…install “Terminal Emulator” to debloat your device…
( SU..enter…..debloat..enter )
**don’t try to install a custom recovery..device will stuck at boot..
GOOD LUCK
Did you patch the file with the same device which you used it or two different devices?
Well, i got it and it works.
Uses the magisk_patched.tar from the same device which i wanted to root.
And with a clean odin installation that should work.

YES THERE IS A WAY . I HAVE TWRP , MAGISK AND A CUSTOME ROM ANDROID 9 I FOUND HERE WITH AWESOME KERNEL AND OFFICIAL PIE 9 , IM HERE TO HELP
I just share my experience. Do it at your own risk
I. Unlock bootloader
1. Enable developer options by tapping build number 7 times
2. Go to Developer options, turn on OEM unlocking
3. Turn off Tab A7 Lite, connect it to the computer while holding Volume Up and Volume Down keys until you see the bootloader screen
4. Long-press Volume Up key to enter Device unlock mode
5. Press Volume Up key to confirm and unlock the bootloader
Done
II. Root
1. Unlock bootloader (skip this if you have done it)
2. (On PC) Extract boot.img.lz4 from Stock AP...tar file, then copy it to Tab
3. (On Tab) Install ZArchiver to extract boot.img from boot.img.lz4
4. (On Tab) Install Magisk and patch the boot.img that you have just extracted from step 3
5. (On PC) Copy magisk_patched.img (in Tab\download) to pc, rename it to boot.img
6. (On PC) Use 7zip to pack boot.img from step 5 into boot.tar
7. (On PC) Use odin to flash boot.tar from step 6 (in AP slot)
8. After Tab reboot, open Magisk, update to newest version, open again and let it install something then reboot
Done
In case you don't want to do a full step by step as above, you can use my already patched boot.tar below, just download and flash it via odin. After flashing and reboot, open Magisk, update to newest version, open again and let it install something then reboot

Sorry, I did put the tablet in download mode, but it says the boot image cannot be flashed with odin becaouse its custom binary even if developer mode is on and OEM unlock is on... Strange! Any Ideas?

What binary is your Tab firmware ?
Sorry it was alright I just didnt press long enough the volume up button its different from a short press when unlocking the OEM.... Thats all a long press needed instead a short one.. Otherwise boot loader will stay locked.
Thanks for the thread GREAT WORK!

Hello,
thank for your work I succeeded with root but I mistakenly installed a faulty twrp which bricked the tablet. I have access to download mode but I can't reinstall a functional version ("security fail tip) the only thing that odin accepts is your great work "patched boot.tar" but the boot still blocks. an idea to unlock it. thanks in advance

I think you should download and flash latest firmware. You can download from this site:
samfw.com
Hello,
thank you for your help i have repaired the boot. it was a question of firmware indeed but beware for tablets version T225 "N" the firmware is not the same and is more difficult to find. they are not offered on dedicated sites.
