I want to root my Essential Phone PH1 with magisk, but I only have a boot image for Nougat and not for Oreo. Does anybody know where I can get an image for Oreo 8.1.0?
Buildnumber: OPM1.180104.166
I would guess that the device forum is the place to find this kind of info...
Hey there,
Finally my Phone gave me a notification for downloading Oreo 8.0.0 and I was wondering if it works the easy way to root it?
My Phone is running on EMUI 5 Android 7.0 build B212 with TWRP and Magisk 16.0 Root.
I Thought about this way to get the Official Oreo Rom rooted :
- Get back to Stock Recovery
- Update to Oreo 8.0.0
- unlock bootloader again if it Relocks
- flash TWRP for Oreo
- flash Magisk via TWRP to gain root on Oreo
Do you guys think that this will work?
Thanks for any suggestion
Hi,
Yeah it should be fine with those steps.
And if you encounter any weird behavior, perform a factory reset using original Recovery.

Did it work?
Like the thread title says here are the dumps of G965FXXU2ZRKA. they are completly untouched and only for devs because when you are a normal user and you flash it in twrp without any change you will have a nice prenormal rmm state and then you can wait 7 days (i know that because i was locked but i have my methods for bypass it)
the dumps are completly clean so nothing got changed or debloted etc. every one can use it but dont forget the credits when you use it....
if you are an unrooted user but you want pie you can have it. you need only to be on BRJ6 Firmware and sideload the update.zip and install it from stock recovery.
When new otas comes out i will update the thread.
Note that the dumps are only for G965F (EXYNOS). So dont ask for S9 G960F one or Snapdragon one....

Will this work on unrooted brj3 firmware?

Hi mate, Are you on Note9, I see a friend had update Pie ZRKL , his device N960N Korea. Do you want take it dump ?
I have a nrd90m firmware test as a result of a problem. I downloaded a full ota package as a solution from the firmware finder.
I want to ask if I install this firmware I lose all the data or not?
Another question if I wanted to install a custom rom instead, which would be the most suitable between openkirin or lineageos? Currently I have emui 5.
I have bootloader unlocked, root and twrp
Hi Everyone;
I dont know i am writing right place or not but i cant get answer to my question till 2 days in RR OS's own page... May be i choose old rom and its not favourite now but i want to change my phone's (Huawei P9 - EVA L09) stock rom with lighter Android 8 (Oreo) custom rom.
I got my phones oem unlock code via DC Unlocker than unlock my phone than i install TWRP's (Open Kirin in Edition) than i rooted my phone vith Super Su.
Everything was ok till that step but than, when i try to install Resurrection Remix's Oreo version for my phone, but i got error in installation.
I attached error photos to this message.
After unsusccess install process i cant open my phone and my phones Internal memory looked 0 mb, then, fortunately i can recover my phone with Huawei's own eRecovery.
I wanna know what did wrong than i will try to change my phones OS asap...

There are Open Kirin Treble Oreo ROMs (RR, LOS) for Huawei/Honor phones:
https://openkirin.net/user_guide/openkirin-rom-installation-instructions/
Installation instructions require:
1) OK Oreo ROMs can only be installed over Huawei stock Oreo (not over stock Nougat)
2) OK ROM must be flashed by Fastboot, not from TWRP (btw, TWRP for Huawei Oreo is different than TWRP for Nougat because of different partitions names, sizes, etc)
There is also XDA thread about Open Kirin Treble ROMs (on P9):
https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/development/roms-openkirin-aosp-collection-t3828806
and for (1), there is a thread describing how to rebrand P9 L09/L19 to AL10c00 and update to Oreo (b540):

Everything looks ok but my phone is in Android 7.0 stock rom.
How can i upgrade it to Oreo vith custom rom?
On the other hand my FRP looks like unlocked?

First, go back to stocl Nougat, and please read again my previous answer - I gave you link for HWOTA7 method for rebranding from stock L09/L19 to AL10 and then upgrading toAL10c00 b540 Oreo
If you don't like unlocked FRP, then go back to stock Nougat and re-lock Bootliader (and then lock FRP back).
But as long as you do rooting, installing custom ROMs, or rebranding to that AL10, you must have unlocked Bootloader and for unlocked Bootliader you must have also unlocked FRP

(Re)installing/OTA updating some stock firmwares lock back both OEM/FRP and Bootloader, but it depends on the firmware itself (Huawei who prepare them).
If you already installed latest firmware for your cust by eRecovery, you can only try to do Factory reset from stock Recovery or eRecovery
Otherwise, rolling back to Marshmallow (and after that updating again to Nougat) shoulf fix the problem with disabled OEM unlock option (I had it twice but in the opposite way, OEM was locked but its option was disabled)
However, having unlocked FRP is not a big trouble. You can still open Bootloader and root/flash, etc - problem would be if OEM option was disabled but locked - then you could not unlock Bootloader and flash anything from Fastboot
With FRP=Factory Reset Protection unlocked you (only) have:
- 'annoying' note that phone is not secure while booting
- ability to start Factory reset from Recovery and eRecovery (with licked FRP, Factory reset is only allowed once you login to the System, from Settings or Project menu)
- ability to unlock Bootloader and flash things
So, what if i wanna install Android 7 custom rom? How can i do it? Can i do it with TWRP'S special Open Kirin Edition directly from Stock Rom?
Can i upgrade my phone to Android 8 after i install Android 7 custom rom first or i have to do it with Rebrand / Update Tool first?
Because rebrand / update tool (or SRK Tool i am not sure) look so complicated and i am afraid to make hardbricked my phone... (i backed up my phone with HiSuite but i am not sure can i recover my phone with it if i unbrick my phone?)
I am using EVA-L09C464B389 rom now.... On the other hand, i cant be sure which AL10 (Oreo) rom is right for me, because when i search in russian page you offered, there is more than one alternative...
I hope i can explain what i mean with my poor English...

How do you install Noigat custom ROM? - decide which custom ROM you want to use and then find its documentation and learn there how it must be installed.
And/or, find the forum/thread about that custom ROM and read the OP posts, and ask your questions there
Which AL10 ROM you want to install...bxs on Russian forum there are alternatives? - If you want to follow XDA guide, then READ it and you will find answer there.
But if you want to follow Russian guide, then register to the Russian forum and ask your questions there
Good night and good by, I'm disconnecting from this thread and will no more read/answer - good luck
Dear @zgfg
First of all thanks for all your answers, but I am not use Russian forum same time with here. The page you advice me (in xda), and the application in there, using Russian webpage to dl stock roms... Sorry if I make you angry...
