I'm in same problem , i already tried with sptool , trying by doogee mix that is the same chipset , but no luck...
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/doogee-mix-development-support-t3632785
it seems that nobody wants root on this phone
btw, when u listnning music by bluetooth is Bluetooth music intermittently cuts out?

I haven't had this problem in special but still the bluboo s1 is a shame in my opinion. I think i will try to resell it asap. The button for waking the screen is been stuck nearly every time i use it.

Mine works fine with fingerprints sensor (recorded 4 fingerprints in various positions and fingers) and bluetooth using Dacom Gf7. I'm very happy for this 150€ purchase. Maybe there are different hardware versions because someone reports also speaker low levels and mine is strong and clear during calls, too. I also hope to find a way to root this very nice, fast and stable device to enable more options. Keep us informed on your rooting progresses. :laugh:

ROOT DONE!! BLUBOO S1 MTK Nougat7.0 FIRST HOMEMADE ROOT!!
Super easy.
Only need a patched stock boot.img image
And unlock the phone before flash it.
Fastguide:
Requisites...
Fastboot/adb tools and drivers
Firmware V10 (lastest update)
Unlock Bootloader
Start!!
Connect bluboo S1 on fastboot mode.
With adb/fastboot tool.
Write:
fastboot oem unlock.
Take your phone and press vol+ (same as accept unlock process)
Now your bootloader its free and your phone will FORMAT.
(Only keeping the system base)
Now with your bootloader open... Wait for reboot android UI.
Download the lastest Magisk Manager.apk (search on ggle "V5.3.0" works on my own) and install IT.
Download this file on mega. And remove ESPACES from-the-link (MOST IMPORTANT)
mega. nz /#!xQtwnR7S!h1vylwQd3u_lUZ4Cbkw_S8YOsL2VskIDuVfbNTT kEis
(Img Patched with magisk v14/stock boot.img from Bluboo S1 Compilation V10, android 7.)
Now if u have the .img from MEGA.. Rename it "boot.img" and place it on the "adb/fastboot" Folder
Open adb/fastboot tools, write:
adb reboot fastboot
And simple...wait for fastboot and write:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Blablabla, OKAY!
And reboot it:
Fastboot reboot
And keep sure all has been doned on magisk manager check it.

I can not download from mega.nz link requires key to decrypt, please release key or new link thank

I could download the link without issues, removing all spaces as the OP wrote. Will give it a shot.

this is the link, all works for me, thanks all, I could restore my apps with TB https://mega.nz/#!xQtwnR7S!h1vylwQd...ockboot.imgfromBlubooS1CompilationV10,android 7.)

Install Koush Universal adb driver and adb.
To unlock boot loader, use the method stated above.
For rooting, install Kingoroot on your pc and enable USB debugging on your phone.
Connect it to the pc by a usb cord and open kingoroot, it will detect your phone and you only have to click the root button and wait for a few minutes.
Ur internet connection should be active during the process.

Root Doogee X7 pro

Hello there. I got a Doogee X7 Pro and I would really like to root it, as all my smartphones before. Until now a One-Click-Root app always did the job to my satisfaction. Those times seem to be over
I tried even some obscure chinese root apps, with and without pc. No luck !
Thought about flashing, but can't find a Custom Rom for my device. Or there is one, but the link is broken. Twrp doesn't work for my phone, and so on.......
In short: I am pissed off.
Wrote to Android forum, nobody answers.
Can/will you help me ?
Kind regards. Christian

Root Doogee X7 Pro
How to root Doogee X7 Pro.
You do this at your own risk. I don't take any responsibility !!!!
You need:
---------------
Hardware:
-----------------
- Computer
- Phone
- SD card
- USB cable
Software:
---------------
- ADB console & drivers
- TWRP image
- SuperSu.zip
Other things:
--------------------
- brain
- time
- patience
- common sense
- the balls to take the risk ?
Procedure:
-----------------
Download and install the Software. The twrp and the SuperSu you can get at www.needrom.com. You have to register !
Put twrp in the ADB folder, SuperSu.zip on SD card.
In phone settings activate OEM unlock and USB debugging. You find these in the developer options.
If those options are not there go into the phone settings, about phone, hit build number 6 times and the menue will appear.
Now press "volume +" and "power" simultaneously. Boot into bootloader.
Connect phone to computer.
Open ADB.
type: fastboot devices
See a number ? Great !
Now the fun begins !!
- Fastboot OEM unlock
This will delete ALL data in the internal storage !!!!!
Device now asks you how to proceed. Volume up for yes, down for no.
Click yes and all user data will be erased. Bootloader is now unlocked.
Press power to reboot into bootloader.
- Fastboot boot twrp.img
On phone the twrp menue should appear.
- Wipe cache and dalvik cache
- install SuperSu.zip from sd card
- reboot
If the procedure was successful the SuperSu app must be in the app folder now. I needed 2 attempts before it worked out.
This is how I remember it. There are other tutorials online in case I missed something.
Good luck.
Thanks for that. I will give it a go later in the week. Laurence

I just got this terminal (LG-X230H-MM6.0-kernel-3.18.19+) and im looking actively for a way to root it, theres a metod to root MM 6.0 but we can't use it unless we have temporal root, i've ported a TWRP versión with a metod from here (XDA) using a MT6737M TWRP ported to our terminal, found an OEM rom w/o bloatware full LG, flashed it with SP Tools and works like a charm, trying to start from there.
Tryed to run the twrp w/o flashing it from the bootloader (fastboot boot <img file name>), I got a message that the transfer was ok but didn't start, just stays there, tryed to flash it and nothing.
Tryed to unlock the bootloader, it gives me the warning bla bla bla waranty, then the option volume up, to unlock and volume down to cancel, when I press volume up does nothing, no warning no select, nothing, but with volume down cancels it and resets it. ("OEM unlock" developer options is already active)
Until now I think the best way to install the custom TRWP is by SP tools, already tryed from SP tools, then when it tryes to flash it i got the error: "BROM ERROR, s_security_secure_usb_dl_image_sign_header_not_found (6045), MSP ERROE CODE : 0x00" So I need a way to sign my recovery.img as an LG OEM file, or a way to skip the sign check.
Still working on it.

Thanks for u help!
I'll try it in the weekend
Hello, I know this post is from more than a month ago but I have a question, that clean lg rom, can I use it on a k4 model x230z? Would be my first time trying this and don't know the meaning of those letters at the end yet and I really hate the bloatware and personalized boot animation that my company installed on it
Yes, you can do it without problem
I have found the fastboot and I launched fastboot OEM unlock and it got confirmation page I can't press yes on it, so I'm stuck on unlocking the bootloader

Yes is "protected" i've read that using a dongle miniUSB to USB (https : //brain-images-ssl.cdn.dixons.com/1/6/10166261/u_10166261.jpg) you can connect a mouse/keyboard to do the job, didn't tried it yet cuz didn't wanted to avoid warranty but im past half way warranty so im going to try it soon.
Was messing around the x230h and by mistake did a full format so my nvram got erased, not a big deal is already fixed full working but still I want to fix it right, it would be helpful if someone can help me here, I just need the nvram.bin extracted with flashtools. ^^

You can try, they are mostly the same terminal, the last letters are generally regional settings the rom for the x230 is the neutral/original and then the company do the customs and the last letters are added, just remember to do a full flashtools backup including your nvram so you can recover it anytime, and if you could share the nvram.bin with me will be appreciated.

Man, I thought I've already answered your comment, but now I'm seeing the answer it's not here
Well here we go...
While I'm willing to help all the poor x230ds community with this (and help myself too, lol) I think I need more detailed information on how to do it. Wish you could help!
Actually I've got root access on android before, It was 2015 and that didn't seem any hard at all. I remember I had just to put some files in SD card and restart phone in an unusual mode (by pressing some combination of keys), and from that state it could ran these SD card files. Also I remember something like clearing caches before installing custom ROMs and giving SuperSU access. It worked fine, but now I've got this x230ds and suddendly no one can do it :>
So let's get to work...
Just to show you the state I'm in when It comes to rooting-android-knowledge, for example when you've said you "got a terminal (LG-X230H-MM6.0-kernel-3.18.19+)", I was like "what on earth is a terminal, Is he talking about a cellphone?", lmao
As for the TWRP you've mentioned here, is this thing a "file" you put on SDCard too?

Greetings, first of all yes thats how you root most phones then we have the LG ones that have the bootloader locked so you can't do that, the bootloader locked in the LG phones protects the write of the boot.img and recovery.img so you can't write a custom recovery, most LG phones are like this, some can be rooted by other process as my LG L50, this one can be rotted using purpledrake, this program injects the root using the meta but this works only for 4.4.2-.
Can't post links yet so just remove the spaces in the links
Now, to backup your phone you need the scatter file that comes with the rom and the rom is on my others post is a clean LG rom no bloatware so even if you can't root it we can have a more clean one, is marked as a x230 it works really nice, you will need the SPFlashTools too. Too connect the phone to SPFlashTools; phone power off, press volume+ connect the USB and release volume+.
Clean X230 rom and Flashtools:
h tt ps : // drive.google. com/open?id=1VtnN14eRElO0LKo9bpo1k94rTPHSM215
h tt ps : // spflashtool. com/
And this video show you how to do it:
h tt ps : / / w w w . youtube. com/watch?v=UFiwuaxzhxM
Then you will need to check if you can unlock the bootloader, for that you will need to have the LG drivers installed and adb, check the next link there you have everything you need to do that, just follow the instructions:
h tt ps : / / w w w .skyneel. com/unlock-bootloader-lg-devices
Tell us if it works or are you stuck with the locked bootloader with the rest of us, gl.
Edit: In case you have the bootloader locked and can't unlock it (the volume+ key didn't work only the volume-)
and you want to install the clean rom, first of all backup your nvram as the video show you so even if you make a mistake you can recover it, this video show you how to:
h tt ps : / / www .youtube. com/watch?v=pOXS8yUlKig
Drivers:
h tt ps : / / drive.google. com/open?id=1p770FY4XZ2YwdMo49a8D54_P81HedKKo
The first time you connect the cellphone in download mode it can be a pain, the modem only connects for a few seconds so is hard to manually install the driver, luckily it will work just trying to connect it twice and will work.
Use only "Download Only" or "Firmware Upgrade" don't use "Format all + Download" the last one will erase the nvram too and if you don't have it and you have a locked bootloader it will be a pain to full fix it, that was my mistake still not sure how and why I select it, it was late and I was sleepy but erased my nvram. XD
Hello, I would like to know if it is possible to make a backup before proceeding to install this twrp since I am afraid that something will happen

sorry but I can not unlock the bootloader
LGs suck! I have 7.0 & will be stuck with it until I get new phone..
This terminal is very difficult to control, the bootloader can not be unlocked, it can not be rooted using kingroot or some other method, it is required that the roms are "signed" for the sp flash tool so nothing can be done. even the download mode does not work ...
I have a doubt why I can not update using fota with the rom x230 clean?
I remember that I recently received an update and now with this rom it does not detect any update

This terminal is very difficult to control, the bootloader can not be unlocked, it can not be rooted using kingroot or some other method, it is required that the roms are "signed" for the sp flash tool so nothing can be done. even the download mode does not work ...
I have a doubt why I can not update using fota with the rom x230 clean?

For the type of rom, this rom is the LG stock rom and is the last from LG, mostly the last update that you got is from your custom dealer rom (I have too one a lot more modern from Telcel México 06/2018) but for me I prefer a cleaner rom that is stable than a modern one, I have no problems with the clean one everything works great and the last update from Telcel just added more bloatware and more adds.

[RECOVERY][TWRP][UPDATE] TWRP 3.3.0 for Maze Alpha 4G (updated)

Hi folks,
Today it's a great day for me : I have successfully patched the kernel to have a 100% working TWRP 3.2.1 for our Maze Alpha 4G.
I have port a Jemmini build for Bluboo S1 and I have patch the kernel to have a working touch panel
I have followed this Thead
For the Maze Alpha 6G version, you can test it and tell me please.
How to flash:
I Fastboot method (must unlock device) :
1- Reboot your phone in bootloader mode : adb reboot bootloader or phone off, press and hold at the same time POWER and Vol+ buttons
2- Connect your phone to your computer with adb/fastboot already installed
3- Unlock your bootloader : fastboot oem unlock (it will erase you data, only data)
4- Flash the recovery : fastboot flash recovery recovery_maze_alpha_4G_twrp-321.img
II SPFlashTool method (no need to unlock device) :
1- Download latest version of SPFlashTools.
2- Execute it and load the provided scatter (the recovery image must be in the same folder as the scatter and must be renamed to recovery.img) then press "Dowbload" button
3a- windows SPFlashTools users : phone off, press VOL+ and connect it to your PC (running SPFlashTool and waiting for phone connetion)
3b- linux SPFlashTools users : phone off and connected to PC , press VOL+ and POWER while your PC is running SPFlashTool (with sudo) and waiting for phone connetion.
Update : you can found here the latest version: TWRP 3.3.0 for MAze Alpha 4Ghttps://github.com/dreambo/android_device_maze_alpha/releases/tag/3.3.0
have a nice day.
Works great on Maze alpha 4G. Thanks.
But I forgot to save original recovery...

Thanks. Can you share stock recovery.img, if you have it? I have recovery-verified.img from V05 but I don't know if there is a new update and if size is correct: 11,54MB. Your TWRP recovery has got a size of 14.24MB...
Can you make a small procedure on how to install it? Will help many nOOb's out.
And people need to report back issues and successes !!!! Again I see many questions and people with issues that we seniors try to help out with that end up in no more response which to me is not done and not helping others.
I have a 6GB version that I could test on but at the moment I am using it for other stuff and I can't risk bricking it this week.
Would finally love to start some stuff happening on this phone.
Ok in the process of doing so on my 6GB/64GB version.
edit : congratz I now have a 'phone' that can only go into TWRP . Should have never ever done this!
Says no OS installed ... really nice
Edit 2: after hours wasted was able to get your zipped rom on the Maze but I got no boot with that TWRP, so flashed recovery-verified.img from the 6GB rom from Alpha I had downloaded ... It would then start up but show 4GB out of 6GB. No good but at least all the rest seemed to work. All other effort to get it going back with the proper kernel etc resulted in frustration.
So now to flash the official rom back via their tool... that one got me really frustrated and was completely my fault that I couldn't figure it out. But you know angry, frustrated, must get it back to work, can do this ... After all these years of toying with phones we are so used to pressing 'power and vol+ or vol-' together to make something work. Now in the end I re-read the manual again and saw that you only have to push vol+ and NOT vol+ and power together or it wont go in the mode it should go to make it flash!!
In case this happens : The best advice I can give to people is to download the proper MTK drivers. Search for vcom drivers for MTK and you will find.
Print out the instructions and mark every step you do to the letter. The flashing itself only takes like 3 or 4 minutes

Haha I did the same exact thing..and managed to get it working after flashing it with the spflash tool but the trick is if you have Windows 10 latest version you won't be able to do this..at least I couldn't because of driver incompatibility so in my case:
1 I installed Windows 7 and installed mtk drivers for spflash tool
2.booted into twrp
2.1 if you can't boot into twrp or it doesn't turn on you can still try this
3.Start sp flash tool and download the zip the one(in case of trouble)that the moderator published
4. Load the scatter file and make sure that all of the files and the scatter are in the same folder.
5.click download and leave it like that
6.plug in your phone in fastboot if you can't try one of the following
6.1 just plug it in turned off and monitor spflash tool status
6.2 plug it in holding volume up key (just volume not power)
6.3 in twrp go to boot and boot into bootloader
And the tool should do the rest
If all else fails check the drivers one more time
After all that if you are feeling adventurous flash twrp one more time and do not factory reset through twrp ! Because that was the problem in my case and after you unlock bootloader boot your phone and go through the setup without setting the password because twrp will be locked.
Good luck.

Wait a sec., missing a couple of things here.
1) Do you have a 6GB ?
2) In case you have a 6GB did you manage to get it working, rooted and all?
Your point 6) well I flashed mine on the latest 64bit win10 ... but.... if the phone is off and you connect the usb cable my phone tried to boot up either in twrp with no com port. Also booting it in bootloader doesn't make the comport visible so you can't flash.
The only way to make mine visible for the flashtool was to press vol+ and then connect the usb cable.
Btw I am glad someone finally responds and spreads information. A very good post! Your first 'thanks' well deserved!
I wonder where the guys are that I was trying to help. Did they throw their phones away or something? Sharing is caring I thought.
I want to root mine to alter the camera settings and the media xml file. I find it strange that our sensor, which is the same as in my wife's Xiaomi's, takes seriously bad pictures.

Sorry forgot to mention I have a 4 GB version but since maze is not providing the roms on their website any further development will be limited..thank God for dreambo he is the only guy doing any work here and like you said nobody is responding to any questions asked..shame really because maze is a great phone with a terrible camera..which drivers did you use on Windows 10? because I tried a hundred of them and non of them recognize my phone..and in adb I can run the command fastboot reboot bootloader but after reboot none of the commands are working .
And yes I did manage to install twrp and root using magisk and I to hope that all those other guys didn't brick their phones

This is the filename I used on Windows 10 VCOM Drivers (All MTK Devices & All Windows OS version).zip I think I downloaded it from XDA somewhere.
Also something you must know https://www.howtogeek.com/167723/ho...8.1-so-that-you-can-install-unsigned-drivers/
Another thing I experienced is that one USB connector is not the other one on a pc. Always connect it to the ones directly on the main board next to the other device outputs like audio etc. and preferably not go through ones that have been extended via a cable like the ones on top of the casing or so. Also a must have application is usbdeview.
Well should be easy to get it going if you can boot it into 'fastboot' then you can try as much as you want to. But djeeeeezzzz the letters are very small when you boot it with a power+volume up . Also check that volume up will toggle between 'fastboot', 'recovery' and 'normal start' and volume minus will select it, not the power button which would be more logical to me.
I might have another go at trying to get it working on my 6GB but it involves having a lot of time and knowing that I will get frustrated. Installing all apps and settings is also a time consuming thing. Once you have TWRP on it it all becomes easy to backup. So many things to test or try.
Maybe dreambo has an idea on how to get mine up to a 6GB one as it is probably only indicated in the kernel.
Anyway I will continue to write down my progress.
Ok more frustration. Done multiple things to try to get this running. It's good to know that the original rom is easy to install again after practice.
Take 1: Try to install clean 6GB rom and immediately install TWRP.
Results: Dreambo forgot 1 step and that is to allow OEM unlock in the developer options. If you do the adb command to unlock press volume up and it will unlock (very hard to see, very small letters on the display in bootloader mode)
Well TWRP starts but immediately I get a message 'mount decrypt data password' which I tried a couple of things but no go. Also googled... different solutions but always ending in a bootloop to TWRP
A possible solution that I read was to create a startup pin .... no go 'pin not valid'
Take 2: Take all the rom files and change the scatter file with the one dreambo provided.... Thought it was successful but ended up with the same Chinese recovery. Trying to figure out why since the filename was correct like indicated in the scatter file. Came to the conclusion that the original file was/is called recovery-verified.img and not recovery.img. Really really strange this one as in the original scatter file it also points to recovery.img. So this one I will have to investigate. Renaming the TWRP file to recovery-verified.img lead to a error during the initial scan of the flashtool.
So moral of the story is that I am back on square 1 and lost 2 hours today (plus putting all apps and settings back) today.
I get a bit lost, is this TWRP method only working with the 6GB or also with the 4GB version?

There is no fundamental difference between 6G and 4G version.
It must works in boat versions.
If you have issues with SPFlashTool try this (no need to install any drivers on Windows 10) :
Put the preloader.bin (found in the rom package designed for SPFlashTool) in the same folder as the recovery.img without checking it the list of partitions (only recovery must be checked) and click on Download to flash the recovery, as usual.
Perhaps SPFlashTool cannot read by himself the preloader in the EMMC, and we must provide it.
The linux version of SPFlashTool not works at this moment, I do not know why
With the SPflashtool I always get the error:
ERROR:STATUS_DA_HASH_MISMATCH (0xC0070004)
HINT

Hello
I had the same problem, (error BROM ERROR: STATUS_DA_HASH_MISMATCH)
what I did: I use Windows 7 System
1- clear all drivers for smartphones with "usbdeview-2-17"
2- install Drivers "Drivers_Auto_Installer_v1.1236.00"
3- install "PdaNetA4170"
4- use "SP_Flash_Tool_v5.1708_Win" to flash the rom. first flash the preloader alone and then flash the others.
the problem was the bad installation of the drivers, after that everything went well for me.
try it can work for you too.
the mentioned software is easy to find on google

I only have the 6GB version of the Maze Alpha. But you wrote that the procedure should work for both versions. I think I wrote down what happened with mine if I installed TWRP.
I tried both the 'regular' flashing and then the full rom install with the trick to put the files in the directory and rename but both ended up as I've written in my previous post.

From times to times, I notice trouble with flashing using SPFlashTools.
First (when I post my first post relating of the root) I use the linux version : no issues it works perfect, no need of any drivers!
Actually, no way to have it working on linux, why I do not know!
I have tried Windows 10 and I notice that we have to provide the preloader to have it working, as I write in my post.
In theory, and only in theory, the SPFlashTool must works the same manner in any phone with a Mediatek SOC.
But in reality, we have notice that with exactly the same phone the flashing procedure works for some users and not for others!
SPFlashTool is a very capricious software, there is no warranty to have it 100% working in any platform, even with the same OS.

The thing is that I have no issue with flashing the software as I can perfectly flash the original rom. The problem is that when flashing the TWRP file, in both options by the way, so also via method 1, I get a boot loop.

honor 7s

this phone use mt6739.so i want to flash it the twrp to my phone.i dunno to unlock the bootloader but the twrp file not have for this device.
I just saw this post as I too have a Honor 7S
There is NO TWRP for our device.
The TWRP for the Honor 7A/7C/7X and Honor 7 doesn't work on our device and you got to pay 4 euros to unlock the bootloader before you can even flash TWRP (and there isn't one)
This Device is treble compatible but now I've found out there is zero development and no Devs Interested in it it's a complete and utter waste of time and has gone back into its box, never to be seen again.
hi there, I get this phone recently (because is old) and I created twrp for i,t so here it is, if you want some fun
you can flash it via flashtool on locked bootloader in to boot partition and after that you push twrp.img via adb to internal storage and flash it in to erecovery and recovery slot, and you are good to go

Hi I have a problem. I'm having brom issues in trying to flash it
Hi
I thinking you dont have "Authentication file" so you using "mtksecurebootdisabler",
so you need patch your drivers with libusb "patch".
Try this one, for me it works.
So open libusb that you install.
connect your honor7s to the pc with disconnected batery and hold volume down.
in patch option select your usb mtk device "idk how is called" and patch it
after patching reconnect phone and it will works.

and little hint
dont flash whole rom if the phone can boot becasue after clean flash "format+download"
you lost log and cust partition because the image files are not secureboot signed and your phone get in to bootloop
and also you lost imei codes so no cellular after that
If you do so
you can fix it in that recovery were I enabled option to format log partition
after you format log to ext4, your phone will boot but without huawei/honor bootanimation
you dont need to worry about cust partition, if you didnt format it it still boot but without bootanimation and you lost some of garbage apps that are in that partition (amazon etc...)
(twrp boots in russian language, idk for now how to change it to boot in english or slovak lanuage (because Im from slovakia) and also it have Lenovo Logo becasuse I use sources from Lenovo A5 that have same cpu)
I will make in future separated thread for this....
Thanks alot for this.. I don't know maybe I should try the disconnected battery. But from a yt link I saw
The link : Honor 7s Dua-Al000
I wonder how his worked
I'll have to know how to disconnect the battery thou. I'm a noob at this.

you can patch it or flash it without disconecting the battery
Here is how:
turn it off
Push and hold volume down
While holding volume down connect usb cable
But is recomended to disconect battery because the phone can boot up instead to go in flash mode.

Well he did with the battery and he add more steps that are not necessary for flashing, like scanning for COM port etc...
When I first try flash my 7s I download flashtool and didn't change any settings, I just load the rom and flash it.
So you must try to find your best way how to do and I will help you
And I wonder how he can flash the Log and Cust partition via flashtool, Maybe he have unlocked bootloader or something
Update: he have in the video description link for "lib usb" but didn't show it in video, or I'm just blind or something

At this point. Might just abandon it. Thanks for everything. Ran into laptop issue on my third trial lol.
Yeah I see, drivers issues, it happens to me too, but I install windows 7 and everything works... but I think is not worth it to format your laptop and install win7 only for this mediatek crap, where you can't unlock bootloader or anything because Huawei trying to protect customers and they believe that their android is best for they're phones

Honestly. I spend a whole night researching videos for the phone. Only to get that link I send. And after all that. It still didn't work. Lol. I have a Poco x3 pro. I wonder if snapdragon android 12 can be rooted. Probably going to try it next month or so.
Snapdragon is eazy for root.
I have Redmi note 11 and it was easy, now I running on Android 13 from stock android 11, if you will need some help with something, I'm here, and I think there is device forum so there is community for that device

[Solved] Hard brick after flashing Magisk's patched boot.img. Unbrick with SP Flashtool possible?

Update 2021.01.24: I consider the problem mentioned here as solved, since it can be resolved with MTK Bypass explained in the Guides Section. BE CAREFUL however to ONLY choose "Download Only" from the dropdown box in SP Flashtool! DO NOT select anything with "Format" in it, else you will lose S/N, MACs and IMEIs!
--- Original post ---
Hi, I have hard-bricked my new Realme 6 while trying to root it with Magisk. At the moment I am stuck in a bootloop at the power-on logo (realme in white letters). The boot animation (yellow realme letters) does not appear, instead the phone reboots after ~35 seconds. The bootloader says "Orange State".
I can NOT enter fastboot nor recovery mode by any key combination. Holding Power and Vol- makes the string RECOVERY MODE appear for a split second in the lower left part of the screen, however nothing happens afterwards.
I can power down by holding Power and Vol+ an releasing them immediately after the screen goes blank.
Holding Vol- and Vol+ while the phone is off and connecting USB makes a USB serial device appear on a windows machine for about 1-2 seconds before it disappears again.
I am very thankful for any hints on how to unbrick the device.
Here's what I have done in detail to mess up the phone:
1. OTA-Update to the latest OS in my region (EU11.A.48)
2. Unlocked the bootloader with the realme In-depth Test app (everything fine so far)
3. Download stock firmware RMX2001EU_11.A.48 ozip from realmeupdater.com
4. Unzipped with gnu unzip (content was readable, no extra decrytion tool for the ozip needed?) and extracted boot.img
5. Installed Magisk Manager and uploaded boot.img to the phone
6. Patched boot.img with Magisk Manager (and if I remeber correctly DIDN'T UNCHECK Preserve AVB 2.0/dm-verity)
7. Certainly FORGOT to do anything with vbmeta.img
8. Did NOT erase cache and userdata
9. Flashed patched boot.img directly and WITHOUT --disable-verity or --disable-verification
10. Rebooted the phone.
Am I correct that my problem is the AVB/dm-verity part?
Why does the modified boot.img affect the recovery (I thought they were seperate)
Can I try something with SP Flashtool?
I do have a second intact device that I didn't dare to touch yet, if that helps resolving the issue (e.g. for SP Flashtool readbacks).
As said any advice is highly welcome. Please ask I you need any more information to help.
I did that too... Magisk patched boot .img process of rooting is the risky process , I bricked my device, got it into red state.. tried thick and thin to revive using various flash tools, unable to do it, finally went to a shop , got it fixed, go-to a good repair shop, if you go to the service center, they will say replace motherboard for 5 k , I hope it helps, do traditional unlock bootloader TWRP recovery then flashing Magisk zip method for rooting process.
Thank you for sharing! But doesn't red state mean locked BL plus non-stock firmware? I wish I could find any repair shop during this Corona lockdown... May I ask how much they charged you for having the phone reflashed?

Yes, you are right , red state means that, I guess bcoz, I may have formatted it and ran again unlocked bootloader but it showed unlocking failed, but I thought that I had previously unlocked it so it should be unlocked but I forgot to do that app thing process of deep test again, and I was on Android 10 latest and patched boot img of previous version using magisk, now I understand what mistake I made, I should have used boot IMG of current version of a 10 , but still I am afraid of doing this magisk method of rooting by patching boot IMG bcoz repair cost me 800/- , and I found out on YT that the latest version of a 10 of my device doesn't readily allows twrp and flashing zip of magisk.... Plus there are half baked info on important things, this is new device for me, I have had rooted Samsung and Lenovo, but rooting this is kind of tricky, bcoz it's still new, I think.... Want to try .... But I m afraid.... Tried fastboot method of TWRP flashing but can't replace stock room, so I guess I can't root .....
Well, there is a tutorial on how to root here on XDA, and seems to be confirmed working. I just didn't know about the vbmeta part from earlier Android versions. Haven't you tried that?

Hello, please check my reply to your reply on my thread. BROM mode is as known as "Emergency Mode" and should not be inaccessible. I will once again request you to try different key combinations and also if it's detecting as fastboot, ADB or Fastboot commands should be available. Please try typing adb reboot or fastboot reboot with minimal ADB and fastboot tools and let me know. If you want to personally message me, message my telegram. I will try helping you there.
Why is this thread showing solved !!! It's nothing solved here... Pls check and confirm

Thnx that's a life saver, I am afraid to go forward with the device, this is promising, I will try, I found out that the new version c17 os Android 10 I am unable to root by twrp magisk zip flashing method, twrp isn't installing, there's an .ofp extracter, but it gives virus with software, unable to do, even talked on WhatsApp and gave him Gmail id, will try this method , I wanted the SP flash tool method, it's simple and can readily restore the stock rom... Thnx Sundae.. daesundae ... What kind of name is that...?? .. chuckles...
