Hi everyone
I recently updated to B609 and (as expected) my phone was un-rooted.
I decided it would be better for me to just install a ROM instead of waiting for a new way to ROOT every time a new OTA comes out. (I have seen some very interesting ones that include Xposed)
This would be the first time i install a ROM on one of my phones but i do know how to use custom recovery's and i will always keep a copy of a backup close so i can flash back when something goes wrong.
A problem i have with starting all of this: I can't seem to find a way to unlock the Bootloader on my phone.
I have looked online but i always get links for older versions/other phones/German stuff.
Second problem: The recovery. As far as i understand, there is no working TWRP for EMUI3.0. BUT there should be a working CMW recovery. Should i go fot CMW?
Third problem: Which ROM? There are 3 that grabbed my attention. Se7en-Rom (But it seems like it hasn't been updated in a while), My-RoM (which seems the most interesting for me at the moment) and Miui (which i just found out about). Which should i go with or should i use another one? I can already say that i want my phone Rooted and Xposed is something i would love to have back (since i used to have it on my previous phone).
Any advice and help would be appreciated

I have a P7-L10 with B609. I was able to successfully root it with RootGenius. When you root it, the bootloader is unlocked at the same time. As far as I can tell, the root is 100%. As for CWM, you can get it from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/ascend-p7/development/mods-tweaks-kernels-recoverys-emui-2-3-t2966670
TWRP doesn't work with B609/emui3.0.
My L10 has faulty flash memory and won't accept a custom recovery, so I can't test CWM or any custom ROMs. Perhaps others can advise. Good luck!

RootGenius was the first thing i tried. It went up to 66% then i got an error but that was a fully Chinese version.
I just tried it again with the one i found by using Google and it goes up to 72%, then tells me that the root has failed.
Which version did you use?
This is what I used and it worked fine (root genius): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2789337
As for bootloader, as far as I know from, starting with firmware 133 (Emui 2.3) all devices have unlocked bootloader
CWM is the only custom recovery for the moment;
Did not try any custom ROM (I'm happy with stock ROM for the moment).
Cheers

That's the first one i tried out. The first few times it ended in an Error. I tried it again today and when my phone reboots during the process, RootGenius loses contact with my phone.
And there is a bootloader-ish thing, but the only options i have is reboot, factory reset and cache wipe.

Hmmm, strange problem. Assuming you have the latest version of HiSuite installed and your drivers are current, all I can suggest is trying again with RootGenius (I used version 1.8.7) with your firewall and antivirus disabled or perhaps trying with Vroot. If you do decide to try Vroot it probably won't work unless you disable your firewall and antivirus.

I disabled my firewall and antivirus and gave RootGenius another try. Normally it goes up to 71% and gives me the error. Now it went to 71%, rebooted and then it gave me the error. The weird part is that right before i get the error, it says the installation is complete.
Moved on to Vroot (which is called Iroot now apparently) . It took a while longer but it wasn't able to do it either.

Get in bootloader mode, if your bootloader is unlocked, it will be written and highlighted with red color. I will point out again, starting with firmware B133 (Emui 2.3) all bootloaders for L10 version (I don't know for Chinese versions) are unlocked
Cheers.
update to b615 and flash or just flash this >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/ascend-p7/development/b615-unlocked-boot-img-t3050926 and use rootgenius remove inmutable etc...

You were right! (not that i every doubted you). I found the problem i had: For some reason, i couldn't boot in bootloader trough my phone BUT i was able to do it with 'adb reboot bootloader'. After making some idiotic mistakes and having to re-flash the stock ROM, I finally was able to install My-RoM v3.3, its rooted, i have Xposed so i am happy
So thank everyone for the help!
Hi,
First post on here. I have bought the SM-N9200 in China after my Z3 screen broke for the second time. I live here (china) at the moment but did not realise that you would be unable to install google play services and therefore google play on the phone. I have a fair few apps purchased on GP and would like them on my phone.
I have read that I would need to have root access prior to being able to install GP but I am running into problems. I have never rooted before even though I was aware of the process etc but have so far been unsuccessful using kingoroot and I cannot seem to find a root method for the Chinese n9200. I saw today that the spaceX kernel supports N9200 so I thought that I would flash twrp with odin and then consider flashing spaceX. However when I try and flash TWRP it fails and the phone displays a message in Chinese that I cannot read as my Chinese is not that great still.
I am not in a hurry to install a custom rom at the moment and mainly just want to be able to get my apps. Can anyone suggest a method? is it possible to install HK Rom onto Chinese n9200 for example?
Many thanks

To flash in Odin you need to enable OEM unlock in Developer Settings.
I tried installing Chinese on HK and it failed (Cache.img)
OEM unlock and USB debugging are on. Odin was run as Admin.
If you try flashing the wrong TWRP (i.e not for your phone) will it fail or will it still flash. I was trying to TWRP for the DUOS version which i am assuming is my phone as DUOS is the dual sim variant?
I will get a chinese friend to tell me what the message is and take a photo of what happens.
Essentially i boot into DL mode and then attempt to flash when the bar fills up the odin still says recovery but the screen on the phone gives me warning (triangle with exclamation) and some information including a the web address for samsung.com/cn
I can help with that Chinese message. There are some problems for you to use GP in China. First, you can use Odin to install HK (TGY) Rom( remember to backup before u do so). After you install HK Rom, you need to connect to a VPN and then go to Google settings.
Hope these info would help you.
Possible solution found in another thread. it seems that the bootloader is locked on some devices and therefore you cannot flash anything.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...ote-5-root-t3214234/post63073600#post63073600
One question. What would be the difference between the HK and Chinese versions of N9200 other than some restrictions. Is it safe to use guides like the one linked for a chinese version?

TGY is the name for HK ROM. You can find it on samsung-updates. Both Mainland and HK variant share the same specs, which is N9200.
SUCCESS!
So after much stress I have a rooted, TWRP'd, Romd N9200 Chinese version. I say stressed as I had some problems when i flashed TWRP in that it would not let me boot back into the stock rom. this leads me to one unanswered question. When flashing TWRP with ODIN is it a requirement to flash a new rom?? I say this as I had the following problem. When I first flashed twrp the phone booted into stock so I rebooted into recovery only to find stock recovery and no twrp. I checked that the KNOX counter had been tripped (it had) but I was confused. I read on twrp website that on some devices if you let phone reboot into stock after twrp flash rom it overwrites custom recovery. I eventually flashed twrp and quickly pressed key combination for recovery and I had twrp but then I could not boot into stock rom (bootloop).
After spending the afternoon in a state of panic I reflashed the stock rom from Sammobile and was back in business. crisis over and a bit of confidence gained.
I am now using SpaceX kernel following this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note5/development/kernel-spacex-pure-edition-stock-t3236317
so far no problems so thanks to @Manh_IT
Here is my step by step if anyone finds themselves in same position:
1) unlock OEM and USB Debugging and backup everything using SmartSwitch (this replaced Kies I believe)
2)download CROM apk from Samsung appstore to unlock bootloader
3)Download SpaceX, SuperSU.apk, Gapps and twrp and place all except twrp onto phone memory
4)Flash TWRP with ODIN and reboot into recovery using method described above if need be.
5)factory reset in twrp
6)flash SpaceX and Gapps
7)reboot system and install SuperSU
I hope this helps someone.:good:
Anyone rooted in n9200 with latest OKA firmware?
actually you don't need to root your device...
just make sure OEM unlocked and find a HK version stock ROM and install it with Odin

well if you use N9200(CN)...you can follow the steps to get gapps
Once you use Crom.apk, you lose your warranty , so DON'T use CROM to unlock the phone
Make sure OEM unlocked
Reset to factory in case of some issues
Turn off the phone
Take the sim out of the phone
Get into download mode
Plug to PC and use ODIN to flash the HK stock ROM.
gapps will be install , no root, and you wont lose you warranty , but the battery saving is not as good as CN version.
I have gapps on my note 5 n9200

Hi great to heard that you have managed to resolved this issue. I have the same problem ( I bought my Note 5 in Beijing recently), so please can you explain what I need to do? I can do point 1 & 2 but stuck on point 3 and the rest. Where do I get all these files from?
Many thanks
Hi there. I think this is my forst post after many years reading this awesome forum.
Here is the problem. I succesfully rooted agalxy nexus, a onyx and a xperiaV.
the last one belong to a friend of mine. we succesfully managed to obtain unlock code, to unlock bootloader, to gain root access, install cmw recovery and flash room. so whats' wrong?
We tried pacman rom and resurrection rmx (both on 5.x.x). the main issue was that my friend wasn't allowed to take/send pics using whatsapp or other apps (he uses a lot w,a,). So we tried to install cm12 (the last listed on their website for tsubasa phones) and here we got problems. Error 7 (something about md5). then we changed the recovery to twrp but no luck again. The phone was stacked in bootloop. Than we installed again cwm recovery and surrended.
what can we do to install the cm12 (or even the 10??)
tnx in advance
Hello all.,,
I checked and read many thread slowly and steadily ,but couldn't find a good solution to root this phone 3T.
I just bought this Beautiful Device runing so smooth but with Hands tied too hard unable to run many apps and many ads and Bloatwares..
Thought to Root this device ,but all are mostly either Oxygen 3 or Marshmallow or 7.0. Version of ANdroid..and DW Error,is also a major concern to look out..
So Please help me to root this device running O2 4.1.1 (I literally dont want to change the stock,as of now) and Android 7.1.1 ,some simple steps...
Thanks and Regards
Awaiting for replies!!
I'm about to get this phone so I've been doing a lot of research myself. It looks like you can follow the steps in this thread and you can flash supersu through TWRP once you've unlocked the bootloader.
Unlock bootloader.
Flash TWRP.
Flash your preferred root zip in TWRP (SuperSU or Magisk are two good choices, I prefer Magisk).
That's about it...
i too tried the above method,,But I got struck with Logo of TWRP and got enabled only after 6 Hours.. But to my fate,,i'm still running on Stock recovery.. Not on TWRP !!
Use the latest official TWRP (currently 3.1.0-1). Works just fine.
i can relate to your question.
however, i discovered how to root the 3t and flash the usual zips files the finally the freedom rom, on my own.
it was a thrill.
i advise you to just take the blue pill.
I installed Blusparks Version of TWRP ,,but still no use,,SuperSU or Magisk both says My phone is not rooted!!!!
I want to live the Stock ROM and just to root the device,,But the steps are not futile for me!
What I would do if i was you.
Unlock bootloader
Flash TWRP
Flash latest Magisk 13.2 zip
Hey,
Is this method still valid for rooting the 3T?
https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/...wrp-root-nandroid-efs-backup-and-more.475142/
Yes, that is still valid, more or less. Might be a more current version of blue_spark's TWRP (official TWRP is on 3.1.1.2) although the link only says 3.1.1-x, so I don't know what that means. But probably won't make a huge difference.
Can't see what version Magisk is linked (my office network is blocking the link). If you choose Magisk, flash latest version 13.3, especially if you want to hide root (from Snapchat, banking apps, etc.). Older versions of Magisk will fail to hide, due to recent changes Google made to SafetyNet.
And what if we want to flash this beta to a brand new device?
http://downloads.oneplus.net/oneplus-3t/oneplus_3t_oxygenos_openbeta_12/
Should we first unlock the device, then install the TWRP recovery, then flash this beta rom and then root?
Hi,
I'm really new to rooting phones, and decided to root my OnePlus 3t. I used this tool (https://forums.oneplus.com/threads/...very-drivers-bootloader-32-bit-64-bit.590277/) after unlocking the phone to root. TWRP was installed without a hitch so I went ahead to install Magisk beta. It gave me "error-1" or something like that, so I googled how to fix it and found out you had to use a boot.img file and flash the img file using twrp. I didn't have one and didn't know where to get one, so I googled and downloaded this (https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...-force-encryption-patched-boot-image.3618232/). I realized that I got the wrong boot.img from here, needed the Android Pie one as my phone is fully updated to that version. What do I do to fix this? If possible, is there a way without flashing the stock rom?
Nvm fixed it ( this thread helped https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/flashed-wrong-boot-img-going-through-bootloop.1711081/)
