Is this confirmed to work? I tried flashing the TWRP for the Blu Pure XL and the phone boot looped. I was able to unlock the bootloader ADB but after flashing TWRP the phone bootlooped.

flash the original recovery (from fastboot mode).
loading recovery and system loading - are two different things...
p.s. recovery was tested.

give me the boot.img and recovery.img files from your firmware. and the file /proc/emmc from the system
and I'll make TWRP for you...
It works. Thank you jemmini!
Edit: It appears I spoke too soon. Recovery works, but now the phone is in a constant boot loop.
2nd update: By some miracle, I got the phone to stop looping and just stay on recovery by randomly pressing buttons.
During the loop, I get this message.
after unlocking the bootloader you need for the first time to boot the system with the original recovery. and only after that to flash the TWRP...
jemmini, do you have a backup of the stock rom? If so, can you upload it? Thank you.

Can you provide step by step instructions?
I imagine it would be something like this.
1. Developer Options > Enable OEM Unlock
2. Enable USB Debugging
3. Reboot to bootloader
4. fastboot oem unlock
5. fastboot reboot? (boot back into system) << i think this is where people are getting boot loop
6. reboot to bootloader
7. fastboot flash recovery (twrp recovery.img)
8. reboot to recovery
9. profit?

I'm planning on trying out TWRP later today. Before I do that, what files should I grab (as a backup) and from where should I grab them? I'm happy to upload them for others, too.
So I will be able to root the phone with this? After unlocking bootloader and flashing twrp I flash supersu?

@jemmini I've never heard of the command fastboot oem unlock confirm before. Is this a command to run or do you mean we should do a fastboot getvar all and check the bootloader unlock status for a yes? Sorry for the newbie question. I've never needed to do this with a nexus.

The confirmation he means is after you execute the unlock command, on the phone screen asks you to confirm by press volume up. That all.

The same thing happened to me.
After I was able to get into recovery using your steps, I formated ONLY the /data partition and rebooted. The phone then booted up properly after that.
I then downloaded the SuperSU ZIP file and rooted my phone through recovery .
I hope this helps someone.

So I unlocked bootloader and also got the bootloop. I flashed this firmware to fix it, but I found out the radio included is not the same as the US version, so now the sim cards don't work.
The firmware image have a file called "MT6753_Android_scatter.txt" which determine what partition to flash. Base on this guide http://www.mtkroms.com/2015/03/how-to-restore-lost-imei-on-any.html, the "secro" partition being replaced may be what caused the issue, so looked like that's what I have unchecked before flashing.

I just discovered that you can back the secro and many other partition within TWRP. I don't know if that alone will fix the sim problem. WRONG
This is a short guide on rooting for thous who are new to this stuff
Steps:
1: download adb platform tools from here
2: Unlock bootloader. follow the guide on htcdev.
make sure you have htc drivers installed so that you can use oem command in fastboot mode for unlocking
3: Download TWRP
4: Download SuperSU and copy it to your phone's internal memory
5: Enable USB debugging and type "adb reboot-bootloader" from pc
6: Type: "fastboot boot twrp-3.1.1-0-alpine.img"
make sure you have twrp image in same folder as adb.
7: Wait for sometime you will boot into twrp recovery from there select install and select the SuperSU zip file
8: reboot and check for root

You should make sure you get a pristine backup at hand, or a RUU appropriate to your device. Otherwise you'll never be able toreturn to a full stock system.
On the U11 it is possible to boot TWRP from fastboot, without flashing it and thus without touching stock recovery. That way I've been able to flash Magisk what's coming with MagiskSU and the possibility to use some Modules. And all without altering the system or replacing stock recovery in the first place.

Connect phone to PC, boot into bootloader mode and type fastboot boot name_of_recovery.img that'll just boot the custom recovery as opposed to flashing it, that way you can make a nandroid backup of all partitions including stock recovery.

The guys method of using recovery to backup recovery will only work on Philz… Not twrp as it does not always backup stock recovery properly. The proper way to backup stock recovery is..
1. Root your phone, which can be done by towel root or by just booting a recovery like he said,
fastboot boot twrporwhatever.img, then flash supersu
2. Boot phone that has stock recovery
3. adb shell
4. su "watch your phone to grant root adb access if you haven't ever done it"
5. dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p43 of=/sdcard/recovery.img
6. This will put flashable recovery.img on your internal sd card. Copy this and save it for later
7. "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" will get you back to stock recovery, "fastboot flash recovery twrporwhatever.img" to flash custom recovery.

If possible and a TWRP recovery is available one should boot to bootloader and try if the command fastboot boot name_of_twrp.img works. Make sure to NOT grant r/w at first boot and leave it ro. Now you can perform a backup of stock recovery, boot and system image (not system partition!) to obtain a pristine backup.
All else will alter system partitions md5 and the backup won't be pristine any longer. Due to block based OTA policy introduced by Google you won't be able to OTA without a pristine system image.

1. If I fastboot to TWPR will it stay (flash for good) or after disconnecting my phone it will be gone ?
2. Can I flash Magisk instead of SuperSU ?

But in download mode there is no fastboot active ?! Until you installed the correct drivers
no "fastboot" (like a "one s", etc) on this phone. no fastboot usb
"fastboot" command work in "bootloader menu" and "download mode"
fastboot oem only in download mode
Hello. Please explain what I am doing wrong. I will download what is in points. I download this adb something, but it does not work. Nothing starts. Does not communicate with the phone. OCB. Could anyone write this guide so that he could understand and act?
hello everyone
Buy a Chinese mi8, unlock it waiting for the days that xiaomi tells you.
I installed the global version, and everything works correctly, but I want to change the rom.
I've tried to install TWRP with adb and it's impossible, it tells me the ADB template that OKEY, but never restarts in recovery mode with TWRP, so I can not install magisk, or any rom that is not official.
Is there any way to install a ROM (.zip) without TWRP?, how do I do Root without magisk? Has it happened to anyone?
thanks!
First of all, you're in the wrong section.
Second you should install via fastboot as described a thousand times AND reboot directly to your TWRP image via fastboot command.
The you can flash another from and root it.
Third, I'd like to strongly advice you to do some research about android, flashing etc to make sure that you know what you are doing.... So many people are moaning about bricked devices....

It's not the first cell phone I've flashed that you're not smart.
I have followed the steps as they are, and as you can see in the image, everything seems to be installed correctly. But whenever I restart in recovery mode, I get the xiaomi no twrp.
Do you know why?

You are trying to be smart? Well...
Why didn't you post your exact steps with fastboot in the first post?
Now it's clear what you did wrong. I already expected it. And you did NOT read what I wrote:
You are rebooting your device with fastboot reboot. In this case your twrp is wiped out by the XIAOMI recovery. Use: fastboot boot yourimagename.
btw, why are you using such an old TWRP? You won't be able to flash actual roms.
So I'd like to come back to my advice in the first answer....

But all the steps that indicate, I have passed them and I never install the TWRP correctly.
1. my mobile phone is unlocked (with the padlock open)
2. I have the official rom installed
3. I try to install twrp with all the commands you have told me, and I never restart the mobile with twrp. I've tried new, intermediate and older versions. and nothing
Is there any way to install an unofficial rom without TWRP?

You can't flash a ROM without TWRP and Magisk is the only way you can root your phone that I know of. If you don't even know these simple things/haven't done simple research you might risk to softbrick or even hardbrick your new and shiny phone. There are many guides on how to flash TWRP but you can PM me if you want more help.
Also you don't install TWRP with adb, you need to use fastboot...

The number 1 result
http://bfy.tw/Nvtb
You can try this
Make sure you have activated the usb debugging in developer options.
1. Download the tools from here: bit.ly/FlashToolMi8
2. Install the minimal_adb_fastboot_v1.3.1_setup
3. Copy the twrp-3.2.3-0-dipper.img to Minimal ADB and Fastboot Folder
4. Turn off your phone completely. then press power button + volume down to boot in fastboot mode.
5. Run CMD as Administrator then cd to the installed Minimal ADB and Fastboot folder. (Ex: cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot)
6. Use this command on your cmd: fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.2.3-0-dipper.img
7. Then: fastboot boot twrp-3.2.3-0-dipper
8. And: fastboot reboot recovery
9. You're now in twrp recovery mode
10. Copy Disable_Dm-Verity_FEC_v1.1 and Magisk-v18.1 to your phone
11. Install Disable_Dm-Verity_FEC_v1.1 from twrp
12. Then install Magisk-v18.1
13. Reboot, Your phone now rooted
Installing magisk_patched is unnecessary.
download ADB here
download TWRP here
download magisk here
first ,we must unlock bootloader.
Settings->About phone->tap at Build number 7 times.Now,we unlocked the "Developer options". open it and turn the OEM unlocking on.
Reboot to bootloader&Run this command on your computer with ADB:
fastboot oem unlock
Use Volume key to select&Power key to enter.
(Ensure you have fully backed up all your files first because the device will be wiped back to default factory state but with an unlocked bootloader)
reboot to bootloder&connect us phone to computer.
Run this command on your computer with ADB:
fastboot boot twrp-3.3.1-2-guacamole.img
then,the phone will reboot to TWRP,but this not end for install, it will be broke after you reboot again, we must install the twrp-installer-3.3.1-2-guacamole.zip In this TWRP.
after this step we got the TWRP installed.
then use TWRP to install the last release magisk.
now we got magisk installed & SafetyNet-pass.
you can install xposed or not .
thanks all&enjoy.
This guide completely misses unlocking the bootloader, changing the option in developer settings to OEM unlock is NOT unlocking the bootloader. Please amend your guide to show the missing steps:
Running the following in the bootloader is how to correctly unlock the bootloader :
fastboot devices
Make sure your device is reported correctly
fastboot oem unlock
(Ensure you have fully backed up all your files first because the device will be wiped back to default factory state but with an unlocked bootloader)

May want to fix Ture to True and after flashing the TWRP-installer reboot back to TWRP to make sure it sticks(Recovery Installed) before you flash Magisk zip.
Don't forget to flash to both slots to get everything to stick.
Its pretty hard to fail safetynet. I've flashed many different things on this phone and never failed it.
JeSUS! FINALLY! After trying out that other method of rooting, installing twrp and magisk (by using patched images) THIS worked. I updated to 9.5.6 (back to stock, but still bootloader unlocked) and then followed this guide to rooting this phone. Finally! Whew! Wish I had done this from the start. I'm able to go get some sleep now! Thanks OP!
So many great minds here! Best community for a specified device that ive ever had the pleasure of being a part of. Can't wait to try this when my unlock token comes in ?

No specific ROM for RP2 but you can install GSI ROM after unlocking your bootloader.

Okay Thanks for the info, But i'm trying to root my phone on mr2 i can't find any thread that shows how to root mr2 with steps ??
I'm on MR 2 as well. Follow these steps :-
Unlock bootloader.
Flash Arter's kernel from bootloader mode. Then boot into TWRP recovery (comes with Arters kernel) and from there flash latest Magisk zip to get root.

Have you tried flashing Arter's kernel then reboot into system before trying to root?
If that works then maybe it's the rooting that's bricking the phone?
Which version of Magisk are you trying to flash?

Maybe explain what steps you are doing and what errors you are getting then?
Can you put the phone into bootloader mode? Is it unlocked? Do you have adb and do you know how to use it?
Peace.

Honestly it's easier to root phones today than it ever has especially the RP2.
If you are truly unlocked this should only take you minutes to do.
First things first. Open a terminal where you have ADB / FASTBOOT installed or if you setup the attributes properly just open a terminal.
Type adb devices and it should give you your serial number of your phone. If not adb isn't installed properly.
If so, type adb reboot bootloader and phone will boot to bootloader.
Type fastboot devices and again it should give you the phones ID. If not fastboot isn't installed properly.
If so, type fastboot flash boot and the name of your arter97 file.img this will also install TWRP.
After installation from bootloader menu scroll down to reboot recovery and it should boot to TWRP.
Click cancel then swipe to allow modifications. In TWRP menu select INSTALL then choose where you've saved the magisk 20.3 file on your SD or internal drive.
After installation reboot system then install magisk manager if not already installed. At this point you're rooted. Have a great weekend!!
Good luck! :good:
Make sure you have unlocked your phone, suggest following razer official instruction.(new xda user cant post outside link, search it)
1.Unlock the Bootloader 2.Unlock the Bootloader Critical Partitions 3.Flash official System Image
And please note unlock will erases all user data on the Phone!
After unlocked your phone you can flash arter97 kernel or f(x)THaxxorX TrinityKernel. Both of them contain TWRP, install Magisk Manager and flash Magisk in TWRP. Get rooted.

Look on the Razer website for the specific instructions to unlock bootloader/critical.
The fastboot command to flash a boot img is
fastboot flash boot boot.img

"fastboot flashing unlock" unlock bootloader
"fastboot flashing unlock_critical" unlock the bootloader critical partitions
Also, make sure you're using the Razer recommended USB cord and ADB/Fastboot.

Cables
When connecting your Razer Phone to a computer for any development, it is advised by Razer to not use the in-box USB Type-C to Type-C charging cable for flashing. The supplied cable is specifically engineered for fast power delivery, not for data transfer. Razer recommends you use a USB 3 Type-A to Type-C spec-compliant cable for any device flashing.
