How to root Xperia TX in recovery mode

I have flashed my xperia TX ROM with CYN 12 ROM and installed Gapps , but mistakenly i forgot to root my phone and install Super SU before that .
Now I can only open Recovery mode TWRP on my phone , and when i am trying to reboot after installation it is asking me to install super SU .
If i select yes , my phone restarts with sony symbol but nothing comes up and if I select do not update , still the same happens .
Kindly assist i am stuck, with no idea what do next , i tried installing apk version of super SU from net and transfer into my phone , but i cant even see the file to install in recovery mode .
My phone was working fine with with CYN 12 before but i was showing very limited space for apps and not allowing me to transfer apps to internal memory .

CM12 doesn't need SuperSu, it's already rooted and has it's own method for granting superuser. Did you try to copy any file to the system partition? Maybe you did and there is a permission error...
Try wiping /data; if that doesn't work, wipe /data and /system and reflash the ROM.

[Tips Tricks Tools] Huawei P9 Lite

Hi,
Today I will introduce the changes you can make to your Huawei P9 lite device.
These methods have been tested on my VNS-L31C432 and it's work on B130 update and earlier.
Sorry in advance for my incorrect syntax in inglish, i'am french user
1. Update to latest version
If your device is NOT ROOTED install the OTA update.
Otherwise place a folder named "dload" into you external or internal SD card and put update file (unzipped) on this folder.
Update for VNS-L31C432BXXX to VNS-L31C432B130 dual-sim, european version here >> https://www.hidrive.strato.com/lnk/H2ljl9lt
Turn off your device.
Hold volume up/down and power button for a long time.... Update starts automatically after this.
If your device is bricked, do not format the partition (except dalvik and cache) and go update (this update is a full version, your system will be restored).
2. Unlock Bootloader/install TWRP/Root your device
Follow this steps >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p9lite/how-to/guide-unlock-bootloader-twrp-root-t3405701
if you have problems to get the unlocking code, log on Huawei site with your Facebook login, CHOOSE your device model and click request the code, enter the requested information, done!
TWRP 3.0.2.0 work but nandroid backup doesn't work!
For solve this, install the "TWRP Manager" app and go backup page, done!!!
(If you need set SElinux in permissive mode please read below).
3. Set SElinux to permissive mode for ever!
Download "Terminal IDE" app.
Open it and run this:
(please, type a command at a time)
Code:
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
mkdir /system/su.d
echo "#!/system/bin/sh" > /system/su.d/permissive.sh
echo "setenforce 0" > /system/su.d/permissive.sh
echo "0" > /sys/fs/selinux/enforce
chmod 755 /system/su.d/permissive.sh
restart your device, done!
4. Install Xposed Frameworks
Follow this step >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p9lite/how-to/guide-xposed-p9-lite-t3425315 and chose this version >> http://dl-xda.xposed.info/framework/sdk23/arm64/xposed-v86-sdk23-arm64.zip (xposed-v86-sdk23-arm64 work fine, no battery drained).
5. Best Xposed module worked fine
Here are some useful and functional modules (not exhaustive list..)
-Amplify (for battery saving)
-Greenify (for battery saving)
-BootManager (for chose your apps in start on boot)
-Play Store Changelog (to display your apps and update at the opening of the Play Store)
-WiFiKeyView (view your wifi key in new tab at wifi setting. Little bug your key is not visible but copy your key and past on a note worked)
-XInternalSD (chage the path to dowload file from Chrome >> external SD) (work on other app )
-VolumeSteps+ (If you find that your volume increases too quickly, This module add steps in the volume bar! Customisable)
-ActivityForceNewTask (Force app open in correct app)
-Force Immersive Mode (Force immersive mode in your app, customisable)
-VirtualSensor (Material emulation of gyroscop, not worked with pogo dev running for this isue)
-AdBlocker and Lucky Patcher Module (I'm not sure that really works..)
6. Use your External SD on Internal (Full supported!!)
This trick enable the official feature "adoptable storage" on your Marshmallow with EMUI. better than Link2SD.
-Connect your device in your PC.
-Run ADB and run this comand:
Code:
adb shell
sm list-disks
you will see a number, that is the identifier of your SD card. For example "159,49".
Run this comand (replace YOUR_SD_IDENTIFIER ):
Code:
sm partition disk:YOUR_SD_IDENTIFIER mixed:50
Done, your external SD have 50% of memory for external and 50% for internal emulation.
Next, appointment in your storage settings and check the total capacity of the device! It may appear 0.00 o available, it's just a visual bug don't worries
Use a "DiskInfo" app or a file explorer for see correctly values.
7. BONUS play the walking dead season 1 and 2 on your P9 lite
I love this game! But device not suported..
the only solution is to take a file from the game with the unlocked level ...
Version named "Mali".
I hope you enjoyed my guide if you have questions or other tricks leave a comment.
Thanks!

nice guide, thinking myself do one like this, but can be improved... add multi user, multi window, calling recorder, substratum/layer support, build.prop mods, smart-e, smart cover etc

I was trying this some time ago...
With TWRP, I was just getting booted into TWRP. Is there something I'm doing wrong or is it just me? I would appreciate any suggestions.

Thank you Snapdesign, If you have more info to add , I would edit the post and I would quote you.
Zeruno, TWRP, stock recovery and stock updater some many diferent. if you don't remove it, you have full acces on it.
Your device is shutdown, hold volume up + volume down + power and don't release it before the updater screen appears!
normally it works...

Yep there's my problem -- updater screen never comes but TWRP loads instead. I wonder if there is some adb command?! That would solve a problem.

i do not think there is an command to go in the updater..
Wait for a more positive response from another user
Or try this at your risk...
Put any file for update (update.app, META-INF, ...) On a .zip archive named "update.zip" and place in your adb folder.
Connect your device on PC launch adb and run this:
Code:
Adb reboot bootloader
Wait for see bootloader screen and run:
Code:
Adb sideload update.zip
I not tested personally this method...

Otherwise place a folder named "dload" into you external or internal SD card and put update file (unzipped) on this folder.
Update for VNS-L31C432BXXX to VNS-L31C432B130 dual-sim, european version here >> https://www.hidrive.strato.com/lnk/H2ljl9lt
Turn off your device.
Hold volume up/down and power button for a long time.... Update starts automatically after this.

Is this the procedure if your phone is rooted but you still want to install the OTA? (My current situation)

This method work on a rooted and no-rooted device.
The root "disable" the OTA function.
Don't try OTA on stock app update in your setting if your device is rooted.

The trick to use ext sd to increase space works with both stock and root or only with root?
Inviato dal mio SM-N9005 utilizzando Tapatalk

This trick no need a su promp comand.
Su command is only available for root user.
Trick work on no root acces
EDIT: im not sur if adb shell work for guest user.. try it

After lot of test, this version Xposed Framework is not a better for P9 lite.
Version unmodified v86 work fine with resource hook activated!

Hello,
will this trick work even with TWRP recovery or only with stock recovery? is there any other way to install OTA updates if I have TWRP and root?

This trick work on a rooted or stock device.
Work only with stock updater.
Is not possible to update with OTA if your device is rooted, no isue.
If you proced a manual install, your device lost the root and your bootloader re-lock automatically.
Possible to re-unlock and re-root after this update.

About the 6th step, is it reversible? Once I've done it, can I change it again to what it used to be?
Thank you

use root essentials... much easier... you can revert but be aware that you might lose some data

Hi guys, I have two questions. First, how can I move apps data from internal memory to SD card? And second, does our phone have a front camera flash? Thanks

so it is possible to use my sd card as internal storage? how will this be displayed in my os?
does it just think of it as 1 bigger internal sd or something else? just want to make sure before buying the phone .
also, is the huawei p9 lite a good phone to be rooted and used with custom firmware (e.g. supportive community etc.)
thank you very much in advance for answers!
have a nice day everybody

Adoptable storage for SD card is not available in stock firmware due to EMUI security policy. But you can do it in custom firmware based on AOSP.
P9 Lite has fully functional CyanogenMod, SlimRom, Resurrection Remix, MedRom (based on stock EMUI 4.1.1 Android 6) and Revolution OS ( Bases on stock EMUI 5.0 Android 7).

[Magisk/Root/Xposed/Busybox]Huawei P9 Lite

-This methode is old but working with emui 4 Android MM (6). Not work with Android N (7).
-Xposed not work in systemless mode if your Android security patch is >= november 2016
-Try to search the last version of zip files and apk on google, the version on this tutorial is old.
Hi!
This tutorial will install Magisk, phh's superuser, xposed and busybox on your Huawei P9 lite device!
Tested on a VNS-L31C432B151 version but normally work on all VNS-L31 and VNS-L21.
Magisk will allow you to "hide" the root... not realy just hide because Magisk and phh's superuser systemless edition create the root outside the system folder!
Magisk feature for common user:
-"hide" root (PokémonGo, Androidpay, banking app, ... all work!) work with
-Magisk not only allow you to replace existing file and directories, but also support adding new files and directories into system!
-Update OTA work! (not tested by me)
For more detail visite this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/mod-magisk-v1-universal-systemless-t3432382
Phh's superuser work at 100% on this device
After a lot of Xposed version tested I can say that Xposed systemless edition is by far the best for P9 lite!
DONT install busybox on system folder!
Ok let's go:
1 Update your system on last emui version and swipe data/factory reset to get a clean and untouched device!
2 Unlock your bootloader (see multiple method on this forum)
3 Install TWRP 3.0.2.0 (see multiple method on this forum)
4 Download this files: Magisk V6.zip / phh's superuser 17.zip / xposed-v86.5-sdk23-topjohnwu.zip / Magisk Manager.apk / XposedInstaller_by_dvdandroid.apk. Put all this files on your externalSD.
5 Go to TWRP recovery and flash in order [Magiskv6.zip > phh's_superuser.zip > Xposed-v.86.5.zip] also reboot your device.
6 When you are on the homescreen go reboot again.
7 Install Magisk Manager.apk and XposedInstaller.apk, then go to the playstore download and install Phh's SuperUser app AND Busybox meefik. Reboot after this step.
8 Open your setting app and allow permission SD card to Busybox.
9 Open Busybox >> settings. Remplace the path file /system/xbin/ with /data/busybox/ and check "Remplace Applets". Also go Menu Zip Archive and download this zip.
10 Go on TWRP recovery and flash the busybox zip file.
10 please perform 3 or 4 reboot
DONE!
So, please try to open yours setting app. if it appears you have done! If not, please try again this method
Now, go Magisk Manager (app) and switch root togle off, launch your protected against root app and normally work!
(Dont need reboot between switch root off/on!)(Selinux switch work, but not persist a boot)
Have fun!

Well done. Works perfect.

The are no files any more

Hey, man I've tested it on my Huawei P9-LITE B370 and it all works perfectly. To flash Magisk, you need this custom recovery (https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p9lite/development/twrp-t3588356)

this really helped me thanks

Helped me alot. Still, post is a bit old, so what I did on b380 version:
FLASH RECOVERY twrp-3.1.1-0-venus.img
FLASH KERNEL Elite+Kernel+for+P9+Lite+CxxB3xx+v10.1.zip
ROOT with Magisk-v13.0(96f8efc).zip
INSTALL busybox archive via recovery to /sbin (for me it installed on /system/xbin, still ok.)
REBOOT after each step
Finally works ! :good:

is this Magisk work on Huawei P9?

I have Emui 5.0 and Android 7.0. I flashed everything except xposed but I still can't use Pokémon Go or Snapchat. Is it beacause i can't flash xposed? And when yes, how can I fix it?

Easy steps to root, Recovery and flashing of Roms WITHOUT PC (5 min Tut)

Fist of I wanna say a big thanks to - Developers of Kingroot and Flashify
Now - I don't know why nobody ever uses this method but it works all the time on almost all phones both new and old if you can gain root using an apk app even if its temp root it works and its fairly easy and fast.
Straight to the point.
1. Install kingroot ( search for it on google download and install )
2. Use the kingroot app to root your device it works - and its good.
3. Download the latest recovery of TWRP image from their site it must contain in the name wls since its a sprint version.
put the recovery on the root folder of your device.
4. Install flashify - from playstore - Grant root access and flash the recovery you downloaded it should take a few seconds then reboot to recovery and vuala ... You now have a fully functional recovery without the hassle of fastboot ( Which i f**king hate and consider a total waste of energy and a drag for the need of a PC and installation of drivers blah blah blah ...)
Now download any custom ROM of your choice and install - i use viper one 9.0.0 - its amazing.
Thank you and bye bye ...
Now if you are have troubles with invalid sim card its simple just download the latest ruu the .exe for format - install htc drivers and double click on the ruu plug your device and then follow the dialogue and install ( that simple too no fastboot :silly: ).
Then follow the he step 1 to 4
1. flash this - https://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2402764&d=1384892279 - via you twrp and
2. Install this "SIM Unlock Helper" - open press the back press start and grant root access.
3. Scroll down and tap on Sim Lock - it should freeze for 5-10s and then you should see your none sprint sim card.
And now you can flash any ROM without the need to sim unlock again .
That's all , Thank you.

Nice guide!
