You can look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/huawei-honor-6-plus-root-tutorial-t2991788
Thanks but it looks like that account and link have been disabled
Use the inbuilt app center to download google play services, once installed, you can then access google play and off you go. The Chinese inbuilt app center does seem to be really good and enables you to download all Google apps and also it's app updates are ahead of Google play.
I just need to root mine now. Anyone managed it yet?
Thanks mate but it keeps saying its not supported by my device...am I downloading the wrong one?
Go to the in built app center, the blue icon, Huawei app center, Open it and the first tab should have a search page. Type in that Google play services and it should find it, if not search and then install from the link.
It installed fine on my PE-TL10 version that arrived yesterday.
Once that was installed, I could install play and the rest using the same method. No root access required to get them installed. It comes up with the accoun, new or existing page and once that's done, you can use it as normal as well as all your other Google apps.
Don't know why your having problems, this went well on mine. Just need to root it now.
I've done that but it only gives me the option to 'open' it rather than 'install' ????
Open it, it won't work without.
still can't get gmail to work. That's the on,y app that won't work.
Will have to wait for a root I guess then install GAPPS...
That should work shouldn't it?
Check out this guide to install Google apps. This exactly what I did: http://www.huaweimobileshop.com/blog/huawei-honor-6-install-google-account/
I hope it helps. I have now unlocked my boot loader but need cwm recovery for 6 plus to get root sorted as I cannot find any standalone root kit that works, so my task goes on still.
Thanks mate.
How did you get your boot loader unlocked? Will you let me know? And let me know if you find a root and GAPPS ?
Thanks
I am a bit busy today with Sunday jobs at homes but will send you all the guides I follwed and I will get the files on to a web site to download for you. The guide is around but the problem was getting the product code. All good now, so will let you have it all later today.

Thanks mate :good:
I still do not have root as I need a valid EMUI 3.0 CWM or TWRP recovery but I do have an extracted EMUI stock recovery that I have been using while testing various supposedly Honor 6 Plus Recoveries!
So here is the Bootloader unlocking instructions taken and modified from here
Introduction
Bootloader unlocking works by using the fastboot command line utility and executing a specific command containing a ‘bootloader unlock code,’ which is unique to each specific device and must be generated based on the IMEI and serial number of the device. Once the bootloader is ‘unlocked,’ this gives us permission to flash (or overwrite) sections of the phone memory with code of our own choosing – allowing us to install recoveries, gain root access, and utilise custom ROMs (once they are available).
Huawei provide a website to generate bootloader unlock codes , but this unfortunately does not list the entirety of the Honor 6 Plus, so we have to get creative. Fortunately, there are resources available us to generate a ‘fake’ product ID for an existing model number which can trick the unlock code generator into providing us a valid code for our Honor 6 Plus, and therefore allow us to execute the bootloader unlock successfully.
Generating a Product ID
If you visit the bootloader unlock generator page (this is a page setup by Huawei themselves), you can see there are a number of required fields; namely product model, product serial number, product IMEI and product ID.
However, after selecting smartphone, you will notice that there are no Honor 6 Plus devices present in the model list – and therefore we need to generate our own product ID. To do this, download the Huawei_Product_ID_Generator (Windows only, I’m afraid) file and extract it to your machine. Please note that we did not develop this application and have no knowledge of any malware it may contain – please use your best judgement and always use antivirus when installing unknown software.
Once you have extracted the application, execute it by double clicking the .exe file. When the window appears, select Y300-0000 from the model list, and enter your devices IMEI in the field below the selection box. You can find your device IMEI on the box your Honor 6 Plus came in, or alternatively navigate on the device to Settings > About Phone > Status and your IMEI will be listed.

}
Selecting Y3000-000
After selecting Y300-0000 and entering your IMEI code, your newly generated product code will be visible in the lower box. Save this number or write it down somewhere safe, and move on to the next step, getting hold of the bootloader unlock code itself.
Getting a Bootloader Unlock Code
At this point, we need to go back to the official Huawei bootloader unlock code generator page. Now that we have a product ID, we are able to generate an unlock code quite easily. First of all, select Smartphone for device type, then select Y300-0000 (about halfway down) for the product model. The remaining fields should be fairly straightforward – fill in your IMEI and serial number (either from the box or on your phone in Settings > About Phone > Status) into the appropriate boxes.
For the product ID, enter the one you generated with the generator earlier – not the one of your actual device. Once all fields have been filled, complete the CAPTCHA at the bottom of the field and click ‘submit.’
If everything has been completed successfully, you will now be in possession of your unlock code. Congratulations!
Driver Installation
Now that you have an unlock code, we can move forward with unlocking the bootloader. First of all, you’ll need to download the package containing required drivers and utilities for the phone, extract it to your computer, and navigate to the resultant directory.
You will likely need to install drivers for your device, so do this now – extract the Drivers file and navigation within, then execute DriverSetup.exe and allow it to complete. When this installation has completed, restart your computer as advised by the driver installation wizard. The requisite software for the bootloader unlock and recovery installation should now be prepared and active on your computer.
Bootloader Unlock
You will need to get and down and dirty with a bit of command line magic in order to actually unlock your bootloader. The simplest way to open a command prompt in the correct place is to navigate into the adb_tools folder or somewhere you have them, and open a command line window and cd ****** to this folder. Your should have fastboot etc in this folder if correct.
The first thing to check is whether or not our device has been detected. Within the command prompt in the tools directory, enter the following command and then hit enter:
adb devices
If you don’t see any output after this, you probably need to install drivers. Install the included driver package, restart your machine, then try again. On the other hand, if you see a device listed, then everything has been detected correctly and you will be able to unlock your bootloader straight away. You then need to put your Mate 7 device into bootloader mode. The easiest way to do this is to enter the following command into the command prompt and hit enter:
adb reboot bootloader
This will get you into the bootloader mode of your device. You may have to press ‘okay’ on a phone screen popup to allow the adb command to connect properly. Once in the bootloader, we can perform the bootloader unlock. To do this, simply enter the following command and hit the enter key – replacing YOURUNLOCKCODE with the code we generated earlier:
fastboot oem unlock YOURUNLOCKCODE
If everything works correctly, you will be given a message in the command prompt, and the phone bootloader screen will now stated ‘PHONE Unlocked.’ Congratulations! You now have an unlocked bootloader.
I have added the adb set up file to get your tools folder and also a copy of the generator file
Can those with the 6 plus tell me what the pros and cons of this phone? is the camera really good or not?

Cheers mate.
This is awesome - absolutely awesome.
I will give it a go and report back . Ive managed to load Nova on it and get it running so things are moving ahead slowly. But this will help.

I have found a that now roots the 6Plus. Mine is now rooted and original recovery back on.
I used the Honor 6 Multi-tool from this thread in the XDA pages.
I am not sure if the bootloader unlock works or not, so if you can get it unlocked as above or try this tool.
The tool is for the 6 not especially the 6Plus but using the install CWM recovery works, then I used the boot to recovery and then selected root by sidelobe (install zip/install zip by sidelobe menus). SU was installed permissions set. As I wanted to ensure that the correct stock recovery was used (my EMUI3.0 extracted before) I selected to reboot the phone by exiting the (recovery) and it then asked me if I wanted to fix root, I selected yes, rebooted the phone. Checked that root was working and then went back to bootloader and fastboot flash recovery (my recovery) to get it back to stock.
I am now a happy Man, bootloader unlocked and rooted. Hopefully you will be able to as well mikejasonsmith.

This is cool mate - thanks so much!
Going to try and do it over the next day or so. Really appreciate your hard work on this.
What ROM are you going to stick on it?
I am using the ROM that came with the phone from Pompmall and it updated a small update once turned on. The current ROM is marked as CUSTCHNC00D112SP05, Build Number: PE-TL10V100R001CHNC00B112SP05.
I take it that you are going to put GAPPS on while you have CWM recovery fitted? Don't forget that unless you flash back the stock recovery, you wont be able to use their update files and have to get a zip file of the ROM. But now we have a working CWM Recovery, it can be flashed easy by using fastboot if needed.
The owner of that multitool has said that he will add the 6Plus to it, so that will be good. I have provided him with my stock EMUI3.0 recovery to add in to the process.

What are you going to be doing to yours???? Must admit Im liking this phone so far - battery life is awesome.

[an all fix for bootloader unlocking issues] on 3s/prime/3x

Please kindly refer to the thread and read the details steps and instructions because it seems like everyone is trying to hit the unlock procedure without knowing that the stable(global) version of the ROM is not apt for the official or any unofficial unlock procedure !
PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU HAVE DISABLED DRIVER SIGNATURE VERIFICATION IN YOUR SYSTEM.
Unlocking Bootloader Procedure:
1. Download zip file (recovery file) of OFFICIAL MIUI China developer ROM for your device :
http://bigota.d.miui.com/6.12.8/miui_HM3SGlobal_6.12.8_b00ffce744_6.0.zip
Please don't get confused with the link as it's indeed a Developer ROM by 'global' in between the link and not the Global stable ROM, you can check it yourself.
Other ROM would not work. Then put it into phone storage. Go to Updater app, press the three dot on upper right corner, and select 'Choose update package'. Choose the zip file you just put in phone storage. The update will wipe all user data, please make backup beforehand.
2. Log into the Mi account which has acquired unlocking permission on your device. Make sure it's the same with the account you sent your request. It's recommended to connect to the Internet for Mi account to sync
3. Turn off your device, press the Power button and Volume - button at the same time to enter bootloader mode
4. Log into the unlocking tool on PC with the same Mi account. Connect the device with the PC using USB cable
5. Press 'Unlock'. The unlocking process will complete in about 10 seconds
For those who already bricked your devices you may using Mi PC SUITE to reflash your device.You are advised to download it to install necessary files (ADB and so on) .
Hi... as far as i know.. you need to be on the same rom from which you have applied for bootloader unlock..
i bought new redmi 3s last week.. and same day applied for unlock... and when going through different threads.. lot of people saying that we need to be in developer rom or Chinese rom to unlock boot loader..so i downloaded global developer and installed it..
with in 2 days i got confirmation from xiaomi that i have permission for unlock.. to my bad.. every time i tried to unlock boot loader its stuck at 50% with current device information is different error..
so finally decided to downgrade to the same version from which i applied for unlocking.. so tried Deep flash cable method to put phone in qualcom loader to bypass bootloader... and installed same global stable version.. after successfully installing stable version tried unlocking.. and voila... bootloader unlocked with in 10 Seconds...without any hitch...
So if you want to unlock bootloader... wait for atleast 7 days after you get confirmation message from xiaomi...

Yes, glad someone else noticed it too. Yes I had trouble for a lot of days with developer ROM after getting permission a week back but no luck.
PS: Disabling Driver Signature Verification is paramount in this process.

I need help!

Hello.
Some time ago I assumed a topic about the brick of my phone, Mate 10 Lite, I managed to bring it to life through the dc_phoenix program. The only version of the system they had was EMUI 5.1.
I'd like to have 8.0.0 to install LineageOS. But I do not have the code for the bootloader, dc_unlocker and HCU shows that it does not detect the phone. HWOTA needs this code to update. Is it possible to get this code somehow differently? Thanks for the help.

Are you sure you enabled Manufacture mode?
Also, phone needs to be booted, not in fastboot
Edit; you might have to install drivers for it, they have a button in HCU/DC named Support or something, that will open a website with drivers and such. I can't remember exactly which one I used because there was 10 or so to choose from. I think it was the most recent anyway. After you have got unlock code you'll have to uninstall driver, it breaks MTP support.
Edit 2: it's named Huawei_Android_phone_drivers_2.zip and location is Other downloads / Drivers / Huawei / Phones
But you need to open Support Area link from DC/HCU, it won't let you download if you're not logged in using the program

HUAWEI PRALX1 - please instructions on how to unlock bootloader and root

Huawei doesn't unlock bootloader's any more.
You'll have to find a pay service that supports your model.

In order to root device's Android unlocking device's boot-loader isn't a pre-requisite.
Rooting a phone's Android means giving user and/or applications administrative rights, will say unrestricted access to Android's system files.

Wrong... you can't flash a patched boot.img without an unlocked bootloader
the only way to root the device is with a Magisk_patched boot.img

You should carefully read instead of replying nonsense.
I don't understand English well. I don't understand it now. I think everyone writes something different. i need root via magisk to be able to connect google pay with credit card. so the bootloader only goes through the paid service? and then proceed to root?

You can only unlock bootloader with a paid service.
Once the bootloader is unlocked you can use magisk and patch and then flash a rooted boot.img
Instructions for making the patched boot.img are here > https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/install.html
you get the correct stock boot.img from a full firmware update.zip for your version

Right after you root Android OS, Google Pay will stop working. How to bypass this in detail is explained here.
Again:
It's a misconception if people like you think the bootloader of a device has to be unlocked in order to root device's Android OS. These people just don't know what role the bootloader has, just don't know what rooting Android OS means.

Simply getting the code isn't enough you have to flash it see below and see the tutorial for dc unlocker here > https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-7x/how-to/how-to-unlock-huawei-bootloader-removal-t3780903
Using your Unlock Code:
1. Turn off your phone, Boot your device into Fastboot mode with Vol down and power button.
2. CD to where you downloaded ADB/Fastboot Tools
Run these commands when inside ADB tools directory
a) fastboot devices. (your device should bee listed. If not reinstall drivers/reboot)
b) fastboot oem get-bootinfo (just to confirm everything is detected correctly
c) fastboot oem unlock 9x9x2x2x2x8x5x3x
3. Acknowledge the prompt on your phone. Device will be WIPED!
4. Once the wipe finishes it will take several minutes for phone to boot up. Do not panic. Once you See Huawei logo you are OK!

Yes you're right. I don't know exactly how it works and I don't understand it. But that's why I turned here and ask for advice on how to proceed. If I had knowledge, I wouldn't bother anyone to help me. I don't think this is anything new.

Excellent !!
We need your firmware version to get the correct ramdisk.img
look in settings / about phone for the firmware version or just post a screen shot of that screen
this is your file (I got it from your first post) > PRA-LX1 8.0.0.401 (C432) FullOTA-MF > https://pro-teammt.ru/en/online-fir...mware_model=PRA-LX1+8.0.0.401&firmware_page=0
download the update.zip (I'm downloading it also)
Next download the Huawei update extractor > https://firmwarecare.com/huawei-update-extractor-v0-9-9-5
I posted the guide here for using the extraction tool > https://nerdschalk.com/extract-huawei-firmware-update-app/
and then follow this guide to root the ramdisk.img
Huawei
Huawei devices using Kirin processors have a different partitioning method from most common devices. Magisk is usually installed to the boot partition of the device, however Huawei devices do not have this partition. Depending on what EMUI version your device is running, the instructions will be slightly different.
Obtain Stock Images
Huawei does not release official factory images, however most firmware zips can be downloaded from the Huawei Firmware Database. To extract images from UPDATE.APP in the zip, you have to use Huawei Update Extractor (Windows only!)
EMUI 8
For EMUI 8 devices, your device has a partition named ramdisk, which is where Magisk is going to be installed.
If you plan to use custom recoveries, simply follow the instructions for custom recovery and you’re all set.
If you plan not to use custom recoveries, you will have to extract RAMDISK.img from your firmware. Follow the instructions for boot image patching above, but use the RAMDISK.img file instead of a boot image.
To flash the patched image to your device, here is the fastboot command:
fastboot flash ramdisk /path/to/magisk_patched.img
Be aware you are flashing to ramdisk, not boot!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Boot Image Patching
You would want to choose this method if either your device does not have custom recoveries, your device is A/B and you don’t want to mix recovery and boot images, or your device is using system-as-root without A/B partitions.
To use this method, you are required to obtain a copy of the stock RAMDISK.img, which can be found by extracting OEM provided factory images or extracting from OTA update zips. If you are unable to obtain one yourself, you might be able to find it somewhere on the internet. The following instructions will guide you through the process after you have the copy of boot/recovery image.
Copy the RAMDISK.img to your device
Download and install the latest Magisk Manager
If you are patching a recovery image, manually check “Recovery Mode” in Advanced Settings!
Press Install → Install → Select and Patch a File, and select your stock RAMDISK.img file
Magisk Manager will patch the image, and store it in [Internal Storage]/Download/magisk_patched.img
Copy the patched image from your device to your PC. If you can’t find it via MTP, you can pull the file with ADB:
adb pull /sdcard/Download/magisk_patched.img
Flash the patched RAMDISK.img to your device and reboot. For most devices, here is the fastboot command:
fastboot flash ramdisk magisk_patched.img
fastboot flash boot /path/to/magisk_patched.img or
fastboot flash recovery /path/to/magisk_patched.img if you are patching a recovery image
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
now use fastboot reboot
at this point your phone should be rooted
I uploaded the patched ramdisk.img here if you have trouble > https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=8889791610682890848
the unpatched RAMDISK.IMG is also their > https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=314978
You also have TWRP 3.11 available for your phone > https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=1899786940962602140
it's ease to flash TWRP and then root your phone with a Magisk.zip in TWRP
it's also nice if you like to flash roms or make backups of your system and data

How To Guide Flashing the OnePlus Ace Pro into the OnePlus 10T 5G

Hello everyone!
I recently had the pleasure(pain) of flashing my Ace Pro and I wanted to share the steps I took in doing so. This post will act a as guide/discussion area regarding flashing the Ace Pro(Chinese Release) into the OnePlus 10T 5G(Global Release).
Henceforth, I will refer to the OnePlus Ace Pro as Ace Pro, and the OnePlus 10T 5G as 10T.
A little bit of backstory:
I currently live in China and have no way of purchasing a device overseas and having it shipped in. Instead, I did a little bit of research and decided to purchase an Ace Pro and have a go at flashing it myself. As far as I can tell, the Ace Pro and 10T are identical hardware-wise and flashing between the 2 different market varients can be done with a little bit of effort and headache.
Before we go any further, let me link some useful articles and resources I've found along the way in order to successfully flash your own Ace Pro:
Fastboot Enhance, a powerful tool that will allow you to flash your device with your desired OS
ADB Platform Tools, a tool used to unlock your bootloader
OnePlus USB Drivers, an USB driver used to allow for your phone to communicate with your computer seamlessly(Even though not officially supported, the Ace Pro and 10T work with the 1.0 Release of the USB Drivers)
2415_11_C.22 Update, a stable release of Oxygen 13 that I personally recommend to be flashed on your 10T
Daxiaamu Tools and ROMs, a Chinese enthusiast that has developed his own tools to aid in unlocking, flashing and relocking of devices.
Disclaimer: I am not responsible for any damage that you may inflict upon your own device, proceed with caution and at your own risk! Back up all data before proceeding!!
We begin our journey by first unlocking the Ace Pro's bootloader, unlocking the bootloader is an essential step in flashing your device.
To do this, we need to first enable Developer Tools by going into: Settings > About Device > Version > And tapping the Build Number box until you have become a developer.
After this, navigate to Developer Options. If you cannot find this option, I recommend using the search bar at the top of the settings menu to find this option. Once you're in this menu, enable OEM Unlocking and USB Debugging. This allows for our computer to communicate with our Ace Pro.
Here I recommend installing your Oneplus USB Driver. This will allow your phone to communicate with your PC for the upcoming step.
After installing the drivers, plug your phone into your computer using either the USB cable that came in the box, or a reliable cable that you know will carry data.
Press on Transfer Files/Android Auto when prompted.
Allow for debugging on your device after plugging it into your computer with the prompt that shows up.
Once you are sure that both OEM Unlocking and USB debugging have been enabled, run your ADB Platform Tools by performing the following steps:
Unzip your ADB Platform Tools and have it placed in a memorable place(preferably the desktop)
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Holding Shift + Right Click in an empty space brings up this option menu. Click on Open PowerShell window here.
This brings up a Windows Powershell terminal that allows you to enter commands that will directly affect your Ace Pro.
Run the command
Code:
adb devices
This show bring up an entry with a mess of both numbers and characters. This shows you that both your computer and ADB tool recognizes your device and you can move forward.
Now we want to put the device into the bootloader by using:
Code:
adb reboot booloader
This will now run on your device putting it into the bootloader state.
Note: DO NOT UNPLUG YOUR DEVICE IN THIS STATE
After making sure that your device is in the bootloader, run the command:
Code:
fastboot flashing unlock
You will be presented with a prompt asking you if you are sure that you want to unlock your bootloader. Using the volume rocker as a selector and the power button as a confirmation button, highlight the UNLOCK THE BOOTLOADER option using the volume rocker and confirm it by pressing the power button.
Your Ace Pro's bootloader is now unlocked.
NOTE: YOUR DEVICE WILL BE FORMATTED ONCE YOU UNLOCK THE BOOTLOADER! ALL EXISTING DATA WILL BE LOST!
Once unlocking your bootloader, your phone will enter 'Orange State' where it lets you know that your device is untrusted due to its unlocked nature. Do not be alarmed by this.
Proceed by setting your phone up as normal and repeat the earlier step where you become a developer and enable USB Debugging.
This time, OEM unlocking will be enabled by default, this is due to the nature of your device being unlocked.
We now want to put our device into fastboot mode by using ADB. In the Powershell window, type:
Code:
adb reboot fastboot
This will once again change the state of your phone and put it in fastboot mode where 3 language options are available. Do not configure your phone in this state, we will come back to it later.
Now, run Fastboot Enhance as an administrator on your PC. The window should open up and you should be able to see your device with the device name being labeled as 'fastboot'.
Double click this option and another Window should show up.
Make sure that the status of the device is as follows:
Secure Boot: Disabled
Seamless Update: Yes
Current Slot: a
In Fastbootd: Yes
System Update Status: None
Once in this state, we want to click on the partitions tab above and search for 'cow' in the search bar. Results will pop up if you have used/updated your device in ColorOS. You want to highlight these results and press delete on the right hand side. Having them remain in your device will have the possibility of bricking your device when flashing the new OxygenOS ROM.
Once done deleting, return to the Basic Properties tab and press Flash Payload.bin. This will open a browser in where you need to find the zip file containing the ROM that you want to flash.
Find your payload.bin file and open.
Your device will now begin to flash, it took me around 10 minutes before the device was done flashing.
Once flashed, go to your phone and select your language of choice. For most of us, it will be English. This option can be selected like earlier, using the volume rocker as a selector and the power button as a confirmation switch.
Select the option to format your phone once again. Enter the pass code that is present on the screen and confirm the formatting procedure.
The device should still be in Orange State since we have not relocked our bootloader, instead we will now see the OxygenOS boot animation before proceeding to set up our device.
From this point onward, your device is now flashed with OxygenOS.
If you would like to relock your bootloader, read on.
The benefits of relocking your bootloader is that you will be able to receive OxygenOS updates as normal and be able to use NFC functions such as Google Wallet.
Once again, enable developer options and make sure that both OEM Unlocking and USB Debugging is enabled.
Open the ADB Powershell window mentioned before and make sure that your device is still recognized by using the command:
Code:
adb devices
Once your device shows up, put it back into the bootloader state by using the command:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
Your phone will now enter the bootloader state once again.
We can now relock our bootloader by using the command:
Code:
fastboot flashing lock
This will prompt you to use your volume rocker and power button one more time. Select the option LOCK THE BOOTLOADER and press the power button to confirm. Your device will now format for the last time and load you into OxygenOS 13.
Note: I personally had an issue where after flashing and relocking the bootloader, my phone decided to bootloop(device stuck at OnePlus logo and keeps on turning on and off again), I solved this by holding the volume down and power button and setting it to restart. After loading into the operating system, I updated my device by using OTA updates and installing C4515_11_C.23. This allowed for my device to install the latest update and it seemed to have fixed the bootlooping problem for me.
Another method to fix the bootlooping issue after flashing your phone if you already have the latest update installed is to enable developer options after flashing and applying the same update using the local update feature.
To do this, enable developer options first, the instructions to do that were described earlier in this guide. Transfer the .bin file by drag and dropping your .bin file to a location on the device that you are familiar with. (Placing the .bin file in the downloads folder is a foolproof method)
From there onwards, you want to go into Settings > About Device > Tap on the blue OxygenOS banner > 3 dots menu in the top right corner > Local Install > Select your .bin file you used to flash the device with earlier. Your device should then update with said .bin file and the bootlooping issue should be solved.
Credit to thegreatn_ for this discovery.
Edit: Some of you may experience that your OEM unlocking is still enabled even after flashing your device and relocking your booloader. Remember earlier when your bootloader was in an unlocked state, the OEM unlocking option would be on by default and greyed out so that you could not turn it off which may present a security risk.
Rest assured that you can turn off OEM unlocking once your device has been relocked and everything will function as intended. YOUR DEVICE SHOULD NOT BE ROOTED IF YOU INTEND TO TURN THIS OFF! ONLY DO THIS WITH THE OFFICIAL FIRMWARE INSTALLED! Not having the official firmware installed and turning off OEM unlocking can brick your device!

Please let me know if there's any questions you'd like to ask. This is my first time flashing and it may seem daunting at first, but I believe with a little bit of confidence, you too will be able to successfully flash your Ace Pro.
Good luck!
I'm 8T user , but thanks for sharing your experience and the information.

It was really hard for me to find a place where I could get all the information I needed about flashing my phone as a noob. If this post helps even just a single person I'd be over the moon. Thanks for the feedback!
Thanks so much. Followed the instructions and worked perfectly!

NOTE: YOUR DEVICE WILL BE FORMATTED ONCE YOU UNLOCK THE BOOTLOADER! ALL EXISTING DATA WILL BE LOST!
Once unlocking your bootloader, your phone will enter 'Orange State' where it lets you know that your device is untrusted due to its unlocked nature. Do not be alarmed by this.
Proceed by setting your phone up as normal and repeat the earlier step where you become a developer and enable USB Debugging.
This time, OEM unlocking will be enabled by default, this is due to the nature of your device being unlocked.
We now want to put our device into fastboot mode by using ADB. In the Powershell window, type:
Code:
adb reboot fastboot
This will once again change the state of your phone and put it in fastboot mode where 3 language options are available. Do not configure your phone in this state, we will come back to it later.
Now, run Fastboot Enhance as an administrator on your PC. The window should open up and you should be able to see your device with the device name being labeled as 'fastboot'.
Double click this option and another Window should show up.
Make sure that the status of the device is as follows:
Secure Boot: Disabled
Seamless Update: Yes
Current Slot: a
In Fastbootd: Yes
System Update Status: None
Once in this state, we want to click on the partitions tab above and search for 'cow' in the search bar. Results will pop up if you have used/updated your device in ColorOS. You want to highlight these results and press delete on the right hand side. Having them remain in your device will have the possibility of bricking your device when flashing the new OxygenOS ROM.
Once done deleting, return to the Basic Properties tab and press Flash Payload.bin. This will open a browser in where you need to find the zip file containing the ROM that you want to flash.
Find your payload.bin file and open.
Your device will now begin to flash, it took me around 10 minutes before the device was done flashing.
Once flashed, go to your phone and select your language of choice. For most of us, it will be English. This option can be selected like earlier, using the volume rocker as a selector and the power button as a confirmation switch.
Select the option to format your phone once again. Enter the pass code that is present on the screen and confirm the formatting procedure.
The device should still be in Orange State since we have not relocked our bootloader, instead we will now see the OxygenOS boot animation before proceeding to set up our device.
From this point onward, your device is now flashed with OxygenOS.
If you would like to relock your bootloader, read on.
The benefits of relocking your bootloader is that you will be able to receive OxygenOS updates as normal and be able to use NFC functions such as Google Wallet.
مرة أخرى ، قم بتمكين خيارات المطور وتأكد من تمكين كل من إلغاء تأمين OEM وتصحيح أخطاء USB.
افتح نافذة ADB Powershell المذكورة من قبل وتأكد من أنه لا يزال يتم التعرف على جهازك باستخدام الأمر:
Code:
أجهزة adb [/ CODE]
بمجرد ظهور جهازك ، أعده إلى حالة أداة تحميل التشغيل باستخدام الأمر:
[كود] adb reboot bootloader [/ CODE]
سيدخل هاتفك الآن في حالة أداة تحميل التشغيل مرة أخرى.
يمكننا الآن إعادة توصيل محمل الإقلاع الخاص بنا باستخدام الأمر:
[كود] قفل وميض fastboot [/ CODE]
سيطالبك هذا باستخدام زر التحكم في الصوت وزر الطاقة مرة أخرى. حدد الخيار LOCK THE BOOTLOADER واضغط على زر الطاقة للتأكيد. سيتم الآن تنسيق جهازك لآخر مرة وتحميلك إلى OxygenOS 13.
ملاحظة: لقد واجهت شخصيًا مشكلة حيث بعد وميض أداة تحميل التشغيل ، قرر هاتفي تشغيل bootloop (الجهاز عالق على شعار OnePlus ويستمر في التشغيل وإيقاف التشغيل مرة أخرى) ، لقد قمت بحل هذه المشكلة عن طريق الضغط على زر خفض الصوت وزر الطاقة وتعيينه لإعادة التشغيل. بعد التحميل في نظام التشغيل ، قمت بتحديث جهازي باستخدام تحديثات OTA وتثبيت C4515_11_C.23. سمح ذلك لجهازي بتثبيت آخر تحديث ويبدو أنه قد أصلح مشكلة bootlooping بالنسبة لي.
يُرجى إعلامي إذا كان هناك أي أسئلة تود طرحها. هذه هي المرة الأولى التي تومض فيها وقد يبدو الأمر شاقًا في البداية ، لكنني أعتقد بقليل من الثقة ، أنك أيضًا ستكون قادرًا على وميض Ace Pro بنجاح.
حظ سعيد!

Hey there, I'm not 100% sure on how to solve this issue but I'll try my best.
First of all, please ensure that your phone is plugged into your computer at all times.
Make sure that your cable supports data transfer and try other cables and see if this problem persists.
The fact that ADB is recognizing your device tells me that your cable is probably not to blame.
Make sure that your phone is on beforehand and that USB debugging and OEM Unlocking are both enabled in the developer settings.
You have to also make sure to select allow on your phone when it asks whether the connected computer is allowed to debug your phone. This is important since it allows your computer to run commands on your phone itself.
Does your phone go into the fastboot screen when you run the adb reboot bootloader command?
Let me know so I can narrow your problems down further and solve the issue!
@thk202 I'm not a vendor of any type. This was just my personal experiences. Can you describe what's gone wrong?
thank you, i finally did it following your steps .. and i think recommendation of 2415 version solved my problem and also instantly got C.26 update through OTA
since i tried 2413 before and alwayes got modem issue.

I remember reading somewhere that 2413 gets updates quicker than 2415 for some reason. But I for one was used to the slow update schedule from Samsung for years so it never affected me. 2415 C22 was a stable OxygenOS 13 release that allowed for OTA to C26 to fix any sort booting issues after relocking your bootloader. I remember relocking my bootloader and having it go into a constant bootloop/soft brick after the C22 flash but after OTA to C26, the bootlooping fixed itself and everything was stable again.

Erm I've actually got no clue, I know for a fact that if your bootloader is unlocked, OEM unlocking is on by default and greyed out so you cannot turn it off while the bootloader is in it's unlocked state. I did re-enable developer options after locking my phone again and OEM unlocking was turned off by default. This hasn't bricked my phone and I'm assuming that if it had the potential chance to, OnePlus would have greyed it out. See below:
How I fixed my "bootloop" problem:
I flashed C.26 through Fastbootd and wiped data, and... bootloop!
Looks like device is trying to access wrong slot A or B and unable to.
You need to hold power button + volume up, it should reboot normally. It's a temporary solution, you will face it again after another reboot.
Then you need to transfer the same zip you used to flash into root directory of the phone (where all the folders are living). Go to settings -> About device -> Status -> Tap 7 times on build number to unlock local update feature.
Next, tap on big OxygenOS banner -> Three-dots menu at the top right -> Local install. After, select the zip file you previously copied. Confirm and wait for phone to update itself.
Update will be installed and bootloop issue should be fixed.

This is another method of solving the bootlooping issue. I'm assuming that the device just automatically unscrews itself when it receives an update through within the OS. The bootlooping issue is probably because its trying to find a bootable OS through both slot A and B until it manages to fix itself. I personally just flashed C22 and updated to C26 and it had the same effect as flashing C26 and flashing C26 again in local updates.
Thanks for the info! I'll append it to the guide in a bit...

I'd like to point out that there is no need to unpack the zip file, Updater will do everything automatically.
This is to inform that i got update c.26 and c.27 through OTA with no issue ..
Wonderful lemme know if you run into any more issues and I'll be glad to help
