So I'm extremely new to this and I've been very carefully following instructions.
Specifically two guides on howtogeek
I unlocked my bootloader, got TWRP working and then finally tried flashing the latest SuperSU.zip
I get no errors, I wipe the cache and reboot - but the app doesn't show up and the phone isn't rooted.
I've tried several times but nothing happens.
I'm using a Huawei Honor 7
Used latest versions from:
SuperSU website
TWRP Huawei Honor 7 Page

Hello there everyone!
Just recently i bought a new OnePlus 3t, which i really like and having some experience from my previous phone (Sony Xperia Z2) i decided to mess around with it. I started by installing the necessary drivers on my computer, i downloaded ADB, TWRP 3.0.3.0, OnePlus Toolkit, STOCK firmware 3.5.3 & 3.5.4 & 4.0.1 as well as stock recovery and proceeded to unlock my bootloader then flash TWRP and SuperSU. Everything was working completely fine, until i did a wipe (system, data, cache) in order to try out Nougat. When i tried to install Nougat 4.0.1. via TWRP/adb sideload the installation would always stop at around 5% with the Error "* Failed to read command: Invalid Argument." in the cmd and "Updater process ended with signal:7" in TWRP. I also tried to install a zip with the firmware, but that would only result in the phone hanging requiring a hard reset. I also tried installing 3.5.3 & 3.5.4 & CM13 which would result in the same error. So currently i have access to recovery (stock and twrp) and fastboot but no OS. Did a lot of google searches but with no results.
Any help is greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance!

Did you try this one?.....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/one...k-unbrick-tutorial-oneplus-3t-t3515306/page13
If you can access TWRP sideload try to install full rom. Go to mount, mount usb and transfer rom over to internal storage. I suggest try 3.5.4 with 3.0.2.0 official TWRP and Blu stark version or the beta 8 to install 4.0.1.
Hi.
I had Freedom OS on my op3t. I gave it to my friend for review and he installed stock 7.0 on my Oneplus 3t.
After he made a review I wiped everything, then I entered into TWRP ( it worked) and try to install my backup. After flashing it I tried to turn on system but there was bootloop (I tried to do it 3 times) and because nth helped, I downloaded new FreedomOS to flash it but now, when I enter to TWRP I see:
DM- verity is not started in enforcing mode and may not work properly,
then is start booting to twrp but TWRP stay on main screen.. I try flash diffirent versions but every time TWRP doesn't work.
Device is unlocked.
Any idea?
i've tried countless recovery imgs for twrp but none are working.

It's not about P9 itself, but which stock build you have
For EMUI 5, you have to use
https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/development/twrp-t3565703
but carefully read OP instructions in the post #1
Also, if you don't properly reboot to TWRP immediately upon flashing, TWRP will get lost. How to is discussed in the thread
Some days ago I got a brand new XZ2c (single sim) and from the past I know that this forum is the place to go for guides for rooting and for custom roms :good:
So I started a lot of reading articles and than tried this guide:
[RECOVERY][Android 8 / 9][Stock/Custom ROM][XZ2/c/p, XZ3] TWRP 3.3.1-0 [UNofficial] https://forum.xda-developers.com/xp...recovery-twrp-3-2-2-0-touch-recovery-t3821597 and for sure all tools I dl from the links from the guide
btw. my goal is the eXistenZ Pie rom and of course root
1. Update to newest stock firmware before unlocking!!!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I don´t know if it was a "fault" but I unlocked with the firmware with which I got the phone and it was the firmware before the latest one
so at my first rooting try I did no update to the latest firmware, but at all further tries I flashed the newest firmware 52.0.A.8.131 for my country and provider (H8314 Mobilkom A1, it´s for Austria)
I did every step from this guide:
2. FASTBOOT
(Optional; If you modify the system or need the camerafix.zip)fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
fastboot boot twrp.img
3. TWRP
Advanced menu -> "Install recovery ramdisk" -> Choose twrp.img
4. Reboot into installed TWRP
5. TWRP
(Optional; Root Part 1/2) Flash Magisk 19.4 or newer
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
booting into twrp never was a problem and also every time I did the fastboot command with the ...vbmeta.img (don´t know if this is still necessary but I did)
6. Reboot into SYSTEM
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
and here is always the same and first problem: a boot loop, so I rebooted into recovery: fix boot loop
after this no problem to boot into system and everything is working fine but no root (Magisk and root checker)
7. (Optional; Root Part 2/2) Install the official Magisk App to gain root.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
after I installed this it shows me:
1) Magisk is not installed (new version 19.3)
2) a newer version of the app is available (7.3.2)
sure I updated both the app and installed from twrp the 19.3 zip but still no success (again boot loop and fixed the loop from twrp)
I tried the complete procedure a lot of times, always with flashtool flashed the latest firmware, booted into system, than twrp a.s.o., I tried some solutions from this forum like patching the twrp directly with Magisk: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=74368287&postcount=23 but no success
at least I tried to install SU but also no root
...I have no idea what I should try next so I hope you have some advices?
Same problem for me.. maybe it has to do with the drm?

Magisk 19.3 is the issue, use 18.1 stable, or 19.4 beta

:good:
1st try with 19.3 beta and its done, also first magisk version without boot loop - so much time wasted and so easy solution (if you know it)
...I am so happy, you don´t believe!
only one question: why is at the twrp dl location in the "package" where all the files in (linked in the twrp thread) a magisk version which is not working on xz2c?

I did bundle 18.1 which should work and linked now 19.4 beta, which should work too.
Which bundled version didn't worked exactly?

it was 18.1 also I tried a 14.x which was an advise in another thread with similar problems (boot loop) and the "new" 19.3
...so at least I tried with 3 different Magisk versions and thought the "failure" has to be an other reason, but I was wrong - I am only wondering that it seems nobody else had problems with the 18.1, I was not only searching in this forum also tried to find solutions with G, found some threads with the boot loop problem but close to nothing with rooting problems

At least 19.4 works at your side [emoji14]
That's the best case of possibilities
Hi all, as the title implies, I'm a newbie to all this. I tried to root my phone using an online guide on how to root xiaomi mi 9 using TWRP and Magisk. I faced some problems but eventually everything was done as the tutorial said.
Here are the exact steps I've done...
- unlocked the phone via Mi unlocking tool
- started fastboot and installed TWRP 3.3.1-0 ( I installed a version first that didn't start when I pressed both power and volume up, then installed the 331-0 version that worked)
- inside TWRP i installed Magisk 20.4
- The phone restarted but never reach the system. It hangs for sometime on android screen then restarts again and then brings me again to TWRP
I spent quiet sometimes reading online solutions but nothing worked for me...
I tried installing Magisk uninstaller.zip nothing changed. tried wiping cache. Tried installing magisk 20 and 20.3
some solutions recommended installing Magisk 19 0r 17 but they both ended up with error for me.
Please help. I'm on Android 10 with MIUI 11
Never had any problems with magisk What TWRP version have you used?
The steps are the same:
-Unlocked phone.
-TWRP.
-Flash magisk zip (you can install magisk manager, then download latest official magisk zip from it and then flash downloaded zip from TWRP).
-reboot.
Anyway you can fix your system by:
-wipe cache/dalvik.
-FORMAT data (with yes).
I don't think you need this 2 first steps for flashing fastboot ROM but it won't hurt.
-Flash official fastboot ROM in fastboot mod, using mi flash tool or included batch/bash scripts (don't lock your device if you don't want to, choose the right option when you flash, with or without "lock").
Mi 9 Fastboot V11.0.5.0.QFAMIXM Global
Mi 9 Fastboot V11.0.8.0.QFAEUXM EEA
You will loose all your data, apps and settings.
Thanks for your help mate...

I would try flash latest fastboot ROM as i said before it will reflash almost everything And then flash magisk by installing magisk manager and download latest magisk zip through it and flash it with twrp-3.3.1-62-cepheus-mauronofrio TWRP
Sometimes first flash of TWRP don't work, just flash it ones more by fastboot flash twrp twrp-3.3.1-62-cepheus-mauronofrio.img from your pc.
