Instructions for unlocking the bootloader on Android 12 (Realme UI 3.0).
1. First of all, you need to roll back to Android 10 (Realme UI 1.0) in this way — https://4pda.to/forum/index.php?showtopic=1018185&view=findpost&p=108649502 .
2. Then unlock the bootloader according to the instructions from here — https://4pda.to/forum/index.php?showtopic=1018185&view=findpost&p=108311204 .
3. After you will need to download the Android 11 firmware (Realme UI 2.0) from this link — http://rms01.realme.net/SW/realme service/realme 7 5G/20680/RMX2111GDPR_11_C.09_2022011518240000.zip .
4. After that, you need to unpack it to any folder on your PC. Next , you find a file with the extension in the unpacked files .ofp and unpack it using the MCT OFP Extractor program to another separate folder.
6. After completing the process, you search in the resulting file folder for four files that are parts of the super partition image with the .img extension. Having found them, you open the folder with adb tools and run from it
the command line, after which the smartphone, switched to Fastboot mode (it can also be flashed in Fastbootd, is flashed both there and there), connect to the PC and flash these files in the order in which they are located in the folder with this command, changing only the name of the file being flashed:
fastboot flash super file name.img
7. At the end, you run the program to bypass the protection in the SP Flash Tool and this utility itself, specify in it as Scatter and Authentication files the files from the last folder (into which the extension file was unpacked.ofp), connect a smartphone in Bootrom mode, disable protection and flash all remaining files.
8. Then you download this Android 12 firmware (Realme UI 3.0) — https://rms01.realme.net/sw/RMX2111GDPR_11_F.04_2022080921130000.zip and repeat steps 4 to 7, flashing files already from it.
In the end, you will get a smartphone on the latest firmware with an unlocked bootloader, if you do everything right.

Hi,
I made a mistake installing Cyanogenmod on my phone, forgot to make a backup in TWRP.
This Cyanogenmod version requires me to delete my former EMUI fingerprints for the fingerprint function to work. I forgot to do that also...
So now I'm trying to reinstall my custom ROM. I found the UK PLK-L01 firmware on Huawei support page, downloaded that and put it on my (not external sd)sdcard/dload/UPDATE.APP.
Then I try the Volume UP+Volume Down+Power for it to install the rom, but only thing that happens is that the phone boots into TWRP, and in there, there is no option to install a .APP file.
Please help

couldnt you just locate files and delete in root explorer or similar app?
You can open the update.app in Huawei update extractor and use adb to manually flash the system, custom, cache, boot and recovery partitions back to stock then once you boot into the stock emui os you can reflash twrp. I'm busy atm but I'll write you a proper guide soon. Or you could Google it but be careful becuase there are a lot of guide that don't work anymore
Edit: This won't require you to wipe your user data so you can keep your setting contacts apps etc.

Here is my guide it's a bit long but should be easy. I recommend reading it all first before following it just so you know what each step is doing.
Ok step one. Go to This link and download the emui version for you phone.
step two. You need to download Huawei update extractor from This link and install it on your pc.
Step three. unzip the update you extracted to a new folder on your desktop (It can be called anything bu I recommend calling it "EMUI") and put the update.app file in this folder.
Step four. open Huawei update extractor and select profile "Unknown (worstenbrood)" if it is not selected already.
Step five. Under the section where it says update file click on the ".." button navigate to the folder you made on your desktop and double click the update.app file.
Step six. Right click on the file named "BOOT.img" and click extract selected then once the green loading bar has gotten to 100% click close on the extracting window since it does not automatically do it its self.
Step seven. Repeat step six for the files named "CACHE.img", "CUST.img", "RECOVERY.img", "SYSTEM.img" and "USERDATA.img" (Only extract USERDATA.img if you want to wipe all of you apps, setting, contacts and messages)
Step eight. Open the folder you create on your desktop and copy all of the files you extracted (Only the .img files since Huawei update extractor also create some other files which you don't need) and paste them into the folder which you have adb installed into (It should be "C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools" if you used the sdk version but if you have a diffrent version of adb paste them into the folder which you have that installed to)
Step nine. Boot your phone into bootloader mode on you phone. There are a few ways to do this but use whatever way you used when you flashed twrp.
step ten. In widowns explorer (Your pc's file manager) Shift click in the folder you have adb installed into and click "Open cmd window here"
Step eleven. type the following commands into cmd "fastboot flash boot BOOT.img", "fastboot flash cust CUST.img", "fastboot flash recovery RECOVERY.img", "fastboot flash system SYSTEM.img" and if you decided to reset all of you data (Like apps, contacts, messages, setting, etc) "fastboot flash userdata USERDATA.img" Some of these may take a long time (Especially SYSTEM.img but it shouldn't take more than 10 minute if it doesn't finish within 20 minute press ctrl + c in the cmd windows and start again).
Step twelve. Type "fastboot reboot" into cmd and you will boot into stock emui. Now you can reflash TWRP if you want and re install root.

hello everyone ..... i will share the root trick without ubl (unlock bootloader)
this method only applies to root magisk only.
this trick I have tested with mobile phone huawei y5 2017 with android version 6.0
and xiaomi redmi note 3 mtk ..
what you prepare as follows:
1.Firmware same with your phone type (my recommendation is flash FW on your phone)
2.Boot.img from the appropriate firmware of your phone type
3.magisk manager
execution steps:
1. make sure the phone is connected internet
2. open the phone settings to activate usb debugging and install the source check from the outside in the security settings.
3. copy boot.img into sdcard on phone
4. install magisk manager application and open the application,
go to the settings on the top left and search "booted boot output format and you can choose according to your needs (if select img.tar, this works with Odin samsung). make your choice (if img = flash with fastboot or spflashtool, ufibox.
go back and select pairs and you will see 3 options "download zip, patch boot img file, install "
please select "patch img boot file" select file and search boot.img stored in sdcard and ok ... magisk manager will download automatically ... just wait until there is installation process is complete.
after finished you see its results in the internal memory in the folder "magisk manager"
there is a file named "patched_boot.img" that means success
copy patched_boot.img to laptop / pc and rename it to "boot.img" and flash it with the appropriate tool of your phone.
if boot.tar in flash with odin
if boot.img flash with spflashtool (if your chipset is mtk)
just install patched_boot.img your phone is rooted

Could you please explain in a basic way how to do it?
Unfortunately, it is frustrating that there is no TWRP for the (very good) MediaTek 8100 processor...
After several unsuccessful attempts, this worked for me:
1. unlock the bootloader
2. install the system that we are going to root
3. install the Magisk app (apk)
4. in the computer, "extract" the boot.img from the firmware that we have installed
Attention: boot.img for modification in the magisk app is downloaded from the correct (installed) firmware
5. copy this boot.img to the smartphone
4. in the Magisk application, we point to the copied boot.img file. The magisk application will modify this file and rename it (we look for the image in the download folder, rename it to boot.img, copy the file to the PC)
Attention: Install the adb drivers - there will be an adb folder on the c: drive, put the patched boot.img file there.
5. put the smartphone in fastboot mode
6. run the command line on the PC and enter the command:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
We have root access in Xiaomi 12T!
IMPORTANT
Rooting can break your phone. Do this at your own risk.
Intro
This guide explains how you can root any Sony Android phone without installing a custom recovery like TWRP. It's possible by downloading the latest firmware, patching the boot IMG file with Magisk and flashing the patched boot IMG.
Note 1:
If you have the XQ-AU52_EU_59.2.A.0.463-R14C firmware installed (Sony Xperia 10 II EU Android 12), you can skip downloading the firmware and converting the file from SIN to IMG. Flash the patched "boot.img" file in the attachment instead.
Note 2:
If you don't like the skin that's installed along Android 12 on the Sony Xperia 10 II, you can downgrade the firmware by using Sony Xperia Flash Tool - Emma.
Note 3:
All files I collected are available

I want to root my device. Will twrp 3.6.0 from mastersenpai05 work on MIUI 14.0.1?
it seems to me that this TWRP is A11 and MIUI 14 A13.
No need for TWRP to root.
Root:
1. Find or redownload the TGZ file for your current ROM or other rom.
2. Browse inside the zip file and find boot.img under the images folder
3. Copy this file to a temporary location in your PC first, and then transfer it to your phone
4. Install the desired version of Magisk app
5. Run the app and choose Install under Magisk
6. Choose Select and Patch a File, then select the boot.img that was transferred earlier
7. A process will run and create a new .img file in the same folder where the original one was
8. Transfer the new file to your PC in the same directory where fastboot.exe is located
9. Open a command prompt window in that same directory
10. Reboot your phone to fastboot mode and connect to PC, USB2.0 port. Check for connection by running command fastboot devices.
11. Run the command fastboot flash boot_ab magiskXXXX.img
***On some devices, disable-verity is required.
Once it's completed, run command fastboot reboot and the phone should boot and be rooted.
