Strange situation - Huawei Mate 10 Guides, News, & Discussion

I have an Mate 10 AL-L29. 4 days ago l tried to rebrand it to chinese model android 8.1, firmware 321. After rebrand l saw my emei is 0000000000. l did it some days ago and all was fine! Now if l make downgrade to a old firmware, my imei is fine, but if l do an upgrade to a new firmware, it doesn't matter ALP-L29 or ALP-AL00, my imei is gone! Right now l'm on the newest android 8.1- 325 firmware. All works good.....root, phone, google play etc..
The only problem is my Imei 000000000 , but MEID is ok.
Any solution guys? Thanks!

It was the first thing that l did... It isn't so simple....seems oeminfo don't do its job when l try to restore it. I have 2 backups of oeminfo, with twrp and with HwOta8_Mate10..

Root works on ALP-AL00 8.1.0.326(C00) , how? I tried Magisk but the device gets stuck on 'your device is booting'.

Try patching ramdisk.img from Manager but make sure Preserve AVB/DM-Verity is checked, then flash it from fastboot.

Do you mean the stock ramdisk.img of the software I'm in? If so, then I did that and checked Preserve AVB/DM-Verity in Magisk, then flashed the patched ramdisk.img in fastboot. After rebooting, I opened Magisk but it says Magisk is not installed.
Also, after that didn't work, tried installing it from Magisk.zip but it only downloads but doesn't get installed.

You have to flash the zip from TWRP. It doesn't flash if you aren't rooted already.

I can't boot into twrp after flashing patched ramdisk. Do I have to flash twrp again? Somehow, while trying to get into TWRP, I can't but after rebooting Magisk is installed and works but after rebooting it isn't installed. Never mind mate I got it to work. Thanks!

Anything you see for the J700T is compatible with the J700T1. The phones are exactly the same minus 4 apps inside the system.

Is this Nougat stock rom for the samsung J700T? And how do I root it?
I have a J700T with twrp and root. Is there a nougat ROM that I can download and flash via twrp?
I would rather not go back to stock, flash nougat, and then re-root.

I'm writing this up in case anyone else needs help.
1) Couldn't get the 7.1.1 download to work from sammobile. Ended up downloading the firmware from another source and flashing through Odin. Took a couple of minutes to reboot after the flash.
2) Wanted to get TWRP and Root back on the phone and followed these instructions.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j7/j700t-development/recovery-galaxy-j7-sm-j700t-t1-t3560342
Now have twrp and root. Everything seems to be working fine.

I would recommend using the magisk modified Xposed installer from the magisk stable threads, and install Xposed via magisk. The other xposed doesn't work as well, it says some modules are installed and running, but actually not doing anything. Just a heads up

I'm rooted, i've got recovery. Now i'm without OS and nothing work.
It's possible to remove and recreate partitions? i cant flash nougat, cuz partitions like... "recovery" "boot" doesn't exist( in oreo boot.img = ramdisk.img, recovery.img = recovery_ramdisk.img) ehh
Did you try this?
If TWRP works than this should work, too.
When you're on Oreo use Tutorial #2.

I clicked this file, looked like it was supposed to be installed but I knew the phone has been rebooted too fast.. and I was right, after reboot didn't install update from eRecovery, just start twrp and that's all..
You need Update.APP 8.0.0.360 decompile, use 3 img files, boot, system, vendor, and use fastboot commands.
I said, i tried many methods and no one was good. I flash correct .IMG's via fastboot ( by information from cmd of course ). After flash i reboot to recovery( twrp) and I saw, in partition /system takes some GB so i tried to boot normally but still didn't work, 1st information after reboot - "DEVICE IS NOT TRUSTED" or something like that ( cuz bootloader is unlocked ) after few seconds, system should boot, but it's stuck for while on 1st screen like I said, and then did reboot to eRecovery so..
It's possible to damage bootloader as much.. ?

Upgrading without un-rooting OP3T

I am upgrading my OP3T from 5.0.1 to 5.0.3. My device is rooted using magisk and I have TWRP installed.
The system updates says -
"Root is detected, system will begin dowloading the full package. Your device will be un-rooted once the upgrade is completed."
Now my questions are
1. How to install the upgrade (5.0.3) without unrooting it ?
2. As it says it'll un-root my device, does it also mean it'll wipe my data as well ?
EDIT - I read about Dirty flashing the version I want but I can't find 5.0.3 image on Oneplus website.

1. You can't.
2. No, but you can re-root it using TWRP (which will need to be reflashed via fastboot).

Re-flashing magisk via TWRP will keep my data ?
It's the same as with all previous updates.
Go to TWRP, flash the whole rom,.don't exit,.flash latest Magisk,.done.
Everything will be as before, with the new system installed

Can you elaborate more on this ?
After I upgrade (and it becomes unrooted). I immediately flash magisk via TWRP ?
I didn't get the part "flash the whole rom and don't exit" ?
Also, Will I lose any data in the process ?

Nothing will be lost even if you don't flash Magisk, so yes.
And Rastaviper meant that when you flash the update via TWRP, you don't reboot, but right after flashing the ROM you flash Magisk and then reboot, this way you will stay rooted.

So no need to fastboot flash recovery?
Correct me if I'm wrong, so you dl the zip, you flash it, you then flash magisk zip? Then what? You boot up and install twrp manager in order to change recovery?

If you flash the update downloaded as zip from downloads.oneplus.com via TWRP, then no, there will be no need to flash it again via fastboot and no need to install TWRP Manager.
Boot to TWRP
Flash 5.0.3 zip
Flash Magisk
Reboot & enjoy
OK thanks! I thought the recovery would go back to stock after flashing the rom
And guys, if other members help you with their posts, don't forget to thank them.

That only happens if you reboot the phone while on the stock boot image. If you use a patched boot image, or a custom kernel, or Magisk, then the stock recovery doesn't overwrite the current recovery.

Magisk makes a point of not touching the system partition but a lot of its magic is done by changing the boot image.

Manual update rooted P10?

Hello,
Some weeks ago I have rooted my P10 with magisk (and twrp as recovery). Now I hot update Infos for new fw B371 (C432). Ota update won't work so I downloaded full Ota with huawei firmware finder. After download phone restarts but no update. It boots to recovery. Do I have to install the update files manually or isn't an update possible.
Thanks

Just flash a stock oreo recovery, and you should be fine.
Use my guide. Tutorial #3 is the right one.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/p10/how-to/guide-manual-updgrade-to-update-oreo-t3758286
Thanks. So root will be undone with this process? After this I can easily install twrp and magisk again without any problems?
Edit: Testet this, but install of officialupdate.zip failed (put the directory in /cust - boot into TWRP, mount cust and tried to install officialupdate.zip). Install from sdcard won´t work too.
Anyone has a solution to fix this. Removed root but it won't work.
Please post the TWRP log after trying to install officialupdate.zip. I need to know, what's failing so I'm able to help you out.

Okay, I can't figure it out, the log says error in line 141 in my script. I tried this on my phone and there's no such error.
What this script does is quiet simple - it just flashes a modified EMUI recovery, where the file and online check are disabled. So, you can flash the recovery from the archive manually via fastboot with "fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk PATH\TO\RECOVERY.IMG".
Then restart and do the update via Settings or FF.
After this you need to reroot, so reinstall TWRP and Magisk / SuperSU.

Just to make sure. Can ypu point me to the right camera fix twrp zip and tell me wxactly what to do with vbmeta in case I did it wrong.

Oh, just follow the TWRP instructions and everything is fine
And the camerafix is bundled in the twrp tar.gz file
Eerrm. Did you test the camera without the camerafix too?
Because since you unlocked it After .126 you should not need it and it should break your camera preview until you flash the vendor.sin via newflasher again.
