Hi guys. I got this device today and am very happy with it.
I'm used to rooting my devices, so I want to root this one too and was hoping you could help me a bit.
I have the Oreo update installed and I see there are some TWRP that work with oreo. What is the best one to use with stock rom? I only want to root so I can install adaway and lucky patcher. Also, if an update comes later this year, like android P or something, can I switch back to the stock recovery, install it and then switch to TWRP again?
So, basically, where can I download stock recovery for Oreo, what TWRP should I use?
Thank you very much

Excellent Question. Highly unlikely to get a reply as you have not included geek terms.

I'll add #geek to the post
I am pretty sure you need TWRP. Here is a good guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/p10-plus/development/magisk-p10-p10plus-t3752482
I do not know how to update with root. I am afraid it involves reinstalling the original recovery and a factory reset.
Unlocking the bootloader is currently a bit of a hassle since the unlock webpage is down. You'll have to contact Huawei Customer Service to get the code.

Hi everyone, it's been a while since I started thinking to root my Moto G 2 but I still want to run on stock kernel & ROM. We are still waiting for the update to Android 5.1 and I was wondering if I could get the OTA safely with a rooted device. If not, I would wait for the official update and after this I'm going to root it; otherwise I would root it now. Thanks in advance.
I think you should wait for the OTA update and root after the update.
You won't receive any OTA updates from Motorola if you have flashed custom recovery and rooted your device
Copy that, thank you guys.

If I understood it right, @luke! wants to run stock rom after rooting. So there is absolutely no problem to boot into TWRP 2.8.5.0, make a nandroid backup and flash latest superSU from there. OTA just cares about custom recovery and changes in system. So when an OTA arrives just restore your nandroid backup or revert the changes you made like unfreezing systemapps, uninstalling things like adaway and there will be no problem to install OTA.
Even if you flash twrp instead of booting into it,you can easily flash back the custom recovery. As long you stay stock this is all an easy thing. And also after flashing a custom rom there are ways to get back to the original firmware. @luke!:If you need any help pm me.

Hi everyone,
I literally just got the Chinese version of the oneplus 3T (A3010) and I want to move from Hydrogen OS 2.5.1 to Oxygen OS 3.5 official with OTA. Does anyone have the file or instructions how to do this? I found instructions for the oneplus 3 but not sure with this model. I'm sure any help would help out a lot of people who are gonna ask this question.
Also will this unlock the bootloader? Just curious about it affecting android pay.
Thank you!:laugh:

Wanna do me a favor and grab a nandroid backup of your rom before you kill it? I actually want h2os
Aside from that, you should theoretically be able to: ("Official" guide https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/...oid-efs-backup-and-more.475142/#post-15431571)
Unlock the bootloader
Flash TWRP
Flash dm-verity
Flash OOS 3.5.3 from the ROM page, I have a mirror too (http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3t/how-to/zip-flashable-firmware-modem-t3509015) mirror on pg 2.
and you'll be set, you can flash the original recovery if it's available on the OnePlus page as well and relock to go back to full stock just English version
PS: Since there is no stock recovery image available yet, maybe will have to run TWRP temporarily, rip the recovery off and then proceed? I dunno
Thanks for your quick reply! I was hoping more along the lines of the adb Sideload method and keep the bootloader locked for now though. If I go the root method sure I can share the nandroid backup.
PS the rom looks really similar to the oxygen rom, so far it looks like only the launcher is different. I guess this is part of the plan to merge the two.
Well you can try flashing the image straight. It's a stock image anyways so it could work.

Basically what I meant was to do the opposite of what is suggested here http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3t/how-to/rom-h2os-2-5-oneplus-3t-released-t3511443 but with the 3.5.3 ROM
Help needed with android pay and OOS clean install
I'm in a similar situation with a chinese bought OnePlus 3G from Lazada.sg that came with Hydrogen OS. I've managed to install TWRP but because I'm completely new, got stuck and instead managed to install OOS 3.5 (now 4.## from the official website) using adb sideload.
I do have 2 questions:
1) My internet connection drops occasionally even though my WiFi is still connected, is that an issue because I might not have installed it correctly? Would a clean flash solve it?
2) I understand android pay is disabled when you unlock bootloader but even after that, will it be possible to wipe the phone clean and do a fresh install of the lastest OOS and the phone will pretty much be like the international version, with android pay re-enabled?
I believe you can use Sultanxda's patch as another way around, but it sounds complicated as hell for a new person, so I'll continue digging around while waiting for a reply.
Thank you, and any advice will be greatly appreciated.
So long story short I wanted to get root access in order to install an audio mod for my phone, realized it was basically pain in the ass and most of the time it won't work so I want to revert the changes back to where I started (a.k.a. stock recovery, locked bootloader). Also system update doesn't work with TWRP, it just boots into TWRP and doesn't proceed installing the update. I'd like to fix that.
My phone is VTR-L29C432 B360 Oreo 8.0
I flashed this TWRP -> https://forum.xda-developers.com/p10/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-1-0-emui-8-0-4-04-2018-t3773449
Phone hasn't been rooted.
I'm sorry if it looks like I made something dumb but I just want some help. I'd appreciate anything really.
Anyone anything? At least I'd like to revert to stock recovery so I can install B365.
On the other side would installing B365 from FF work fine with TWRP?
Really nobody has a solution? Can't I extract the stock recovery for B360 from somewhere? It's that I'm new with Huawei phone and I'm not sure how everything works here. I used to own Galaxy Y but things were simpler there.

I flashed mi 9t pro rom on my k20 pro. now if i install TWRP and ROOT(Magisk) will I get the OTA?
If yes,
If I flash/install DOLBY or Viper4android or change the Display Refresh rate or any type of System application/modification through TWRP or Magisk , will it stop getting OTA?
and if I get OTA, will those applications or modifications be removed after installing the OTA update?
Thanks
As you already know how to flash things, why would you bother with ota updates?
Ota updates with modified rom is always a surprise. But, definitely you gonna lose some changes if it applies fine...
Thanks for the reply.
I just know how to flash what . but I don't have that much knowledge how things are work. So I am confused all the time. However, I'm not using any modified rom. the rom I've mentioned above is stock fastboot rom. So it would be helpful if anyone gives me the answer.

You won't lose OTA, but OTA will break some things that you've done.
You will need to turn off OTA. Whenever there's an update you want you will need to download the recovery ROM for that version and install it manually in TWRP. You should be OK just wiping cache and dalvik. After installing you will need to immediately install Magisk again in TWRP.
I'm not sure about any mods as I've not used any you mention. I suppose it depends on where they get installed to and if a recovery ROM touches those areas.
Is there already a way to root on android 13 for redmi note 10 pro? Twrp? I can't find anything so far, maybe someone knows something?

Same as on Android 12. That was the one with the issue decrypting in custom recovery.
Can't you just fix boot.img with Magisk and then fastboot flash it?

Yep.
so, i bought my new redmi note 10 pro yesterday.
its on android 12, miui 13. and it asks me to upgrade.
i havent upgraded yet, thinking maybe rooting it with twrp and all, would be difficult.
Should i keep the current version and root it. or am i ok to upgrade it and then rooting it?
seeing this thread, it seems like im ok with upgrading and rooting. but want to make sure.

Wait the days until you are unlocked, in case something borks during that procedure.
thank you for replying.
well, i couldn't wait, considering the new update is lighter and better. so i just updated it and everything went smooth. What is the best way of rooting it? i mean, should i go with or without the twrp. any bugs with the twrp. or is there any better recovery to flash.

I'd just fix boot.img with Magisk to root. TWRP is mostly just for flashing different roms, and our phones use 2 different touch screens, so your might not even work in TWRT.

I have been using TWRP on every device i have rooted. i just love the TWRP recovery. because, as you said, it allows me to flash different kind of roms and it allows me to backup my current rom.
i am probably not going to flash any custom roms on this device, but i would like to have the opportunity to backup my current rom for flashing it later on if needed.
Will i be able to do this with the fixed boot.img and Magisk?

Magisk is just for root and different modules (like viper4android). You need TWRP to backup rom, but as I said touch might not work for you, check the TWRP touch not working posts.

well, it seems "not worth it". until an official TWRP is released.
And if i decide flash boot.img/Magisk or TWRP, mtk will restore my device back to its locked/stocked state?
