[HELP] Rooting P10 on Oreo (B360) & EMUI 8.0 - Huawei P10 Questions & Answers

Hello, first time here but I need some help.
So I wanted to root my P10 (mainly for Viper) and I started digging around here and there (mostly in XDA). I followed few guides (on how to unlock the bootloader, how to flash TWRP, how to root...) but I still can't pull this off. Anyway, straight to the problem:
So as you can see I'm using P10 on Oreo (B360) and EMUI 8.0. I unlocked the bootloader using ADB & fastboot. Then I flashed this TWRP: link
So far everything went smooth and without any errors. I am able to boot into TWRP. So here I'm stuck trying to flash the root.zip (this one). Whenever I try I get the Error: 1 (as mentioned in the thread), however, I read here in XDA that on Oreo flashing boot.img bricks the phone? I saw several threads of people with bricked phones due to flashing boot.img. My question is - what do I do here?
I looked for other solutions like Magisk but from what I understood Viper4Android doesn't work on it.

Anyone... anything? I'd really appreciate any help.
If it's not possible (even though I've seen people with rooted P10s on Oreo...) is there a way I can revert back the changes I did so I can remove the warning message on bootup and possibly have my warranty back?

you Cant root it yet beacose there is no twrp for emui 8, so look and try some methodes root without TWRP
and why you wanna rooot emui 8, there is nothing for it, yet.

What do you mean? I already said I have TWRP and I'm able to boot into it without problems. I even linked the unofficial TWRP I flashed in my first post. Plus I saw few people here that have rooted P10s on Oreo. And finally all I want to install is Viper.

There is this TWRP by @espaciosalter20 : https://forum.xda-developers.com/p10/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-1-0-emui-8-0-4-04-2018-t3773449
should work, support for data decrpytion...
I used MAGISK 16 to root my OREO EMUI 8.0 P10
-done....
about super root and supersu working on OREO EMUI 8.0 you have to ask in the ROOT thread.
about viper4android i don´t know..i don´t use it.

P9 EVA-L09 stuck on Nougat

Hello guys,
i did a mistake yesterday and accidently hit the update button of the official update dialog from mm to N on my p9. Because you cannot cancel it, it proceeded the whole process...
Now i'm stuck on the new Version and first problem were missing apps like updater, and camera?!
I was looking for the new buildnumber and it says NRD90M test-keys.
Previously i was on root but dont know the buildnumber (some MM), bootloader is unlocked.
I searched a lot on xda but did not find a similar problem with a solution that i would try.
Can anyone help me how to fix that problems? I read about a rollback but didnt find a way to do that. TWRP is loading if that helps in any way.
Goal is to get root to work with magisk maybe and an up-to-date nougat rom (and Camera back since 3rd party isnt that great).
If any other info is needed ill provide that.
Thanks in advance!
I did some research an tried a few more things.
Here's whats not working:
-flashing b136 with dload from paulobrian's thread. fails at 5% mark
-relocking bootloader with srk-tool and fastboot. resulst in: failed remote root type is risk
-flashing several other full versions
i flashed (succesfully) stock recovery following this tip: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=67754200&postcount=4
system is booting but weird behaviour as described.
I read something about succesful flashing stock only with locked bl and only locking bl with stock recovery but this doesnt work for me.
Any tipps are much appreciated.

Root OnePlus 3T running 7.1.1 Android Nougat and Oxygen 4.1.1.

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?

Should we first unlock the device, then install the TWRP recovery, then flash this beta rom and then root?

Having Trouble With Custom ROMs

I've been having loads of issues with installing Treble ROMs. Currently I'm on the PRA-LX1's most recent update with EMUI 8, (C432) and have only recently found out that Askuccio's TWRP is around. Previously I've been trying and trying with TWRPs like Haky86's which couldn't have even worked because it's built for EMUI 5, I've tried Pretoriano's for the P10 lite, as well as some other random one which is Chinese. Pretoriano's is always unable to mount my /storage/ or /system/ and therefore I can't wipe or flash anything properly, and the chinese one just placed me in a bootloop after flashing the Treble RR ROM.
I now have the Askuccio TWRP and I need to know before I try again - will I get a bootloop, or get in a mess all over again? I can't back anything up beforehand because of encryption and inability to root before switching to a custom ROM. The last times I've tried I've had to keep booting and messing around until eRecovery manages to reproduce itself from seemingly nothing and then redownloads my system firmware again.
Has anyone had proper success? Do you recommend any ROMs to use? I'd prefer RR, Lineage or Omni but at this point anything is fine. Thanks
I'm in the same boat as you. I have had many phones and rooted them all, but somehow the help on this forum lacks detail and consistency. I also have the TWRP installed but can't get any further down the line - where is the root? Can't install custom roms, can't get adaptive SD, just got unlocked bootloader and FWP!

Can`t get rooted. Twrp isn`t working either

Hi
I recently got a mi mix. Love it so far except the OS. So i figured i would root it and flash lineage on it. I got twrp on it, but the screen froze when it asked for å password to mount it i think. I tried rolling back a few versions, but didnt work either.
Well after that i tried to root the phone (I used fastboot to get twrp installed), but neither of the programs i used worked.
The ones i tried were Kingo Root and Root Genius. Both said that my phone was too solid to root. This is very different from when i rooted my galaxy A5 2016. That was just one click and done.
So what i need help with is either getting twrp working or getting rooted so i can flash through the official twrp app.
All other zips where straight from official sites other than a custom version of twrp
Official TWRP is abandoned, does not work.
Read towards the end of the official TWRP thread, you will find a link to a innofficial version by Blunden-Raupe that works.

After root using the OnePlus All-in-One Toolkit, phone is stuck on boot

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/)
