Not possible at all. Bootloader locked down means no Twrp and no magisk.

Should have done your research before buying. All U1 are bootloader locked.

I bought the Kenya version from Jumia. Is the bootloader locked? Is there anyway I can tell if its locked or not?
Also, if its unlocked, can I flash a custom recovery then root thru it?
Thanks!

I have the same problem.
The thing is that I have already been able to restart in TWRP (full backup made in TWRP when I rebranded my Rogers VTR-L09 to VTR-L29).
For some unknown reason, I am now unable to restart in TWRP.
How?

Unfortunately, I don't remember...
I had a lot of trouble to get my code but I did not noticed how I have done it... Sorry.
For unlock I just followed the bootloader section in the rebranding guide. No different than from the other phones. Bell L09
I bought honor 9n but can find anu root method. Pls if presnt im simple steps,
You first have to unlock your bootloader, but Huawei is no longer giving those unlock codes out

Honor/Huawei completely locked their botloader and it is impossible to root or tweak them.
Depending on which huawei devices and which firmware, you can still be able to unlock, for now, using alternative paying service.

Even if he pays, it won't be of much use because in their latest update, they patched the kernel in a way so that we can't root their phones anymore even if the bootloader is unlocked.

yes, this is true.
i'm on Nova 2s, same thing happen on me after i flash latest upate (Patch01), magisk is not working.
although when i check, my bootloader is still unlocked, that is a small good news.
when i check and compare older and latest kernel.img and ramdisk.img, they've made a couple changes in them, maybe seniors will find out how to workaround this and we will have root again!

F versions are not bootloader locked. You can just use oem unlock in dev settings, flash twrp and flash custom kernel thats all. You can fnd newest twrp and read steps how to do it.
Hello guys
I'm searching for a way to root my mate 10 pro.
My actual version is BLA -l29 8.0.0.157 C432
I searched the whole forum and saw that the DC solution does not work with the newest Android version. I'm really tired after reading so much guides but no guide will work.
Do you now the current solution to root my phone ?
Same here...

If you already unlocked your phone, flash TWRP (see Attachments) in fastboot using this command: Flash recovery_ramdisk twrp6.img. Go to magisk official topic and download stable magisk release and flash it via TWRP.

From my own personal experience talk to the ministry of solutions. I got my bootloader unlocked, without any use of funky, and since unlock have gotten normal updates ota. It isn't cheap but good and effective

I bought the login data for DC unlocked but if I try to scan it says error 375 .. what should I do now
I am just in contact with Ministry of Solutions to get an unlocking code. Fingers crossed... I will let you know how it goes. Not cheap at 30 Euros but oh well. He requires "friends and family" payment via PayPal, IMEI, and serial number.

Is this TWRP 3.2.3-0 is works with EMUI9?
Anyway thanks for sharing newer version of TWRP.
I got a solution.
As DC unlocker admin said, we should try the IMEI unlocker code option
Can someone test it ?
Ministry of Solutions worked fine for me on BLA -L29 8.0.0.157 (C432)

Hello,
I need to know if the latest Magisk is working with fw 8.0.0.146 C432 and above as a read about boot problems after upgrading the FW some time ago.
Maybe this only was with older Magisk 17.xx versions?
I would be happy if someone could tell me that latest Magisk is working now with my fw.
Thank you

v18 working for me on 8.0.0.157 (432)
I just received a refund from Ministry of Solutions, as they can no longer provide a code for my Mate 10 Pro. Not sure whether this applies to earlier firmwares (mine is BLA-L09, 8.0.0.137).
EDIT: Apparently the service is back up and running. I have since paid again and received an unlocking code. I haven't had a chance to test it yet.
Just to confirm I have unlocked bootloader with Ministry of Solutions code, and running magisk and TWRP. BLA-L09.
can also confirm received a working code to unlock my Bootloader from Ministry of solutions.
