Magisk and Mi9

Has someone with unclocked bootloader been able to install Magisk?
It would be awesome to have root and Gpay working thanks to it

I hear it should be easy enough. I'll be able to unlock on Tuesday evening and so will report back on my successes (and/or failures!)

Yes

I may even try just keep stock rom and root that, by attempting to modify the boot.img, as shown in this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/magisk-twrp-device-encryption-t3733601/page1
Stock rom is fine for me for now and whilst I'd love to try out the EU rom, I will be happy enough to have my phone as it is now (firmware wise) but with root and all the joys that brings (app theming, ad blocking, viper4android etc).
Tuesday night I'll get to start playing around and attempting all of this. I'll definitely post a guide of whatever I'm successful with

Nice! Mines 3:30pm on Tuesday so I'll rush home from work and do my best to get the EU rom flashed via trwrp

How has everyone progressed with unlocking their phone. My time has come for me to do it, but busy with work the next couple days so have to wait til then. I plan to unlock, then hopefully root so I can do a full back up, then flash a global rom on my chinese version phone. One thing I don't understand yet is do I need to install another recovery (twrp) or will the global version flash ok on the stock recovery? Thanks

If you just want to flash the global version use miflash. If you want to go xiaomi.eu you have to use TWRP.

I just flashed blobal version as I'm in Australia and all went well. Next step is to root. I can still install twrp right? Will this end up wiping my device if I do it now?

TWRP per se doesn't wipe anything but... Yes, if you didn't format yet the data partition do 'decrypt' it, you'll have to do it

Grazie amico. Sounds like I have to do it again. Didn't take long to restore from backup. Mi backup is actually very good.

With Unlocked bootloader magisk "works" but you can't update to magisk 18. It's broken for some reason. Only magisk 17 works.

I have a problem. Yesterday in between transactions suddenly my Google pay card stopped working. When I tried to add it again - I got info about root or other modification to the system. SafetyNet check was pass! I installed magisk, and hidd Google pay. Still no go.
Can't add the card.
Any thoughts?

Sadly my Google pay stopped working. I made a transfer and I tried to make another one after 10 minutes only to be rejected. I tried adding the card again only to fail with info about phone modification... SafetyNet test passed ok! I tried installing magisk (19) and hid some things. But that didn't helped..
Can't add new card.

My tips: clear the data of Google pay/Google play services/nfc services, use magisk hide for Google play services, Google pay, reboot. Also ensure Secure Element Position is set to HCE Wallet.
Hope that works for you!

CN Rom update 2.30 advice?

So I am currently on CN 2.27 ROM from NA Global, I am wondering how and if I can update to version 2.30 because Boot Unlocked TWRP Magisk GAPPS Debloated. Does TWRP currently work on the update? I assume upon updating I will lose everything back to stock, but I want to be able to get phone back to current state...because well CN Rom is much better but this device is so finicky if you know what I'm saying.

I have same question like you, my phone has installed CN 2.27 and TWRP with Magisk. How can I update to CN 2.30 without losing TWRP, Magisk and any other data from my phone? Please some advice me....

First you have to download 2.27 zip file
Extract it
Flash stock boot and recovery image
And then update to 2.30
After that flash your TWRP and magisk
Just backup ur data with TWRP in case u face any problem

So what exactly do we lose and gain with the CN rom over the EU rom??
Assume CN rom can be set to full English so no Chinese language remains?

Yeah I relocked boot uninstalled Majisk and modules, updated 2.30....then reflashed and installed. Its super smooth and all the game launcher features are great. Totally enjoying this far more than global. Oh and holy crap all the camera features too.

So you mean TWRP-3.3.1-0528-NUBIA_REDMAGIC3-CN-wzsx150.img and Magisk-v19.3 still working on v2.30 itsn't?

Where can you download the CN rom from?

Do you have a copy on the china rom? It's not on the Nubia site anymore.

Yes everything works, it's best to update cleanly then unlock bootloader, twrp flash, and root. Also if you flash gapps Pico in twrp CTS Profile SafetyNet will not pass....don't fret install Magisk Module Safety Patch by hackintosh5 in Magisk phone will reboot and system will Patch optimize on reboot and it will pass. Allowing full access to playstore and downloads.

Listen I have NA Global device, the easiest fail proof way to install CN Rom is in stock recovery, wipe data & cache use otg and FAT32 format pen drive to install...you will have no problems. If you decide to go back to Global do the same thing but with Global Rom on pen drive.

[STOCK] Stable realmeUI/Android 10 ROM for RMX1991

Hi folks,
What we used as beta ROM is now published as official stable release known as version RMX1991_11.C.12 for Chinese model of Realme X2.
Probably anyone can upgrade the phone now in any possible way.

The bad news is FP stops working as soon as you patch vbmeta for disabling AVB...

The good news is that there's no verification of system partition. You can leave vbmeta untouched and modify whatever you want except boot.

No, Magisk is patching boot, which will require you to disable verification by means of vbmeta. You can try system-based methods like one of SuperSU.

but in order to fix twrp replace issue vbmeta verification is needed to be disabled right??

I will try to search for it. Is it just a normal app to install from Play store? or requires other method?
One more thing, TWRP working with it or no?
Thanks

No. At least a few last CN ROM versions are insensitive to recovery replacement. You can keep stock vbmeta and flash custom recovery. But recovery will be replaced when you boot system, i.e. you flash custom recovery for single and immediate use

Backup is a nice thing. I would always insist on creating backup.
I successfully switched onto realmeUI without losing data. As I understand, you have to do it from A.17 (for CN device). My path was A.16 -> C.02, but now many are suggested to upgrade from A.17 straight to C.12.

Thanks man. I don't know what reliable backup method i can use on an unrooted phone. I'm on A17 so i guess it's safe to upgrade without backup. Again, have u experienced any bug so far on realme ui?

OnePlus 7 Pro Patched boot Images

This thread is for Patched boot image posts. Please don't post boot.img files without having tried them and made sure they work. bootloops are not funny to watch.​
Please consider to make sure to state: ​
Build number: Oxygen OS 11.0.1.1 GM21BA For example
Phone Model: GM1913 For example
Magisk: stable/beta/canary ver: 23.0 For example
this thread is similar to this one Here and intended to group in one place the patched boot.img as not everyone have succeeded in rooting their device with self patched images.
Your contribution is greatly appreciated.

This module is not being updated any longer. Sometimes it it works sometimes not especially since android 11. You still can use Call Recorder app with root, it's not free but not overly priced either.

Hi, I have decided to gather boot images and magisk patched images to one thread for now. I will try to edit this thread to be up-to-date. You can let me know what could you want next or if anything is wrong etc.
Stock boot.img files (direct links): ​
EU NE2213_11_A.12​
Stock boot.img - link
EU NE2213_11_A.10​
Stock boot.img - link
​Magisk patched boot.img are here a file that can be downloaded (I am using magisk canary usually, but in Magisk, you can change the channel from the canary to stable etc.) - names as the versions come. ​
Below this there are those magisk patched files which you just flash (or boot and then flash directly from the Magisk app) via fastboot ​

Apparently not. I have patched that stock boot via magisk, then via fastboot boot <patchedimage.img> booted (and also tested if it actually boots) and when it booted, via magisk app I did "Direct install (recommended)", rebooted and done.

Oh okay you had a temporary boot we that's good to know well it works that's the most important thing ain't it

Noob question I been on locked bootloader for years so haven't been in the root scene, but I have US model NE2215 I'm guessing I need to wait for the firmware to be available to get the boot img? Did I just got my phone too early? Already oem unlocked now just waiting for twrp and root info. I always wanted a OnePlus phone because the community is big, but doesn't seem like much people upgraded from 9 pro.

Yes, because this is probably and currently the most secure option to root it as we haven't got twrp available yet.

That's not that you have it early. The phone itself is early in spite of rooting and doing things like rooting, custom recoveries, ROMs etc. I currently can't find boot img for your model, but once I do, I will post it here for you with patched one.

You should wipe the phone and start all over or else you won't be able to take ota updates. Never flash the patched boot image since you bypass the magisk backup feature. You have to wait for the full update package to update if you flash the boot. Ppl have previously had update issues after flashing.

Not sure what else magisk does during the backup process, but doing what you’re describing didn’t work for users on 8T and they usually ended up soft bricking. Everyone who flashed it vice installing from magisk app had to wait for op to post the full rom or for someone to post a repacked fastboot rom to update.
You do what you need to do, I’m just giving you some experience and recommendations since you just wiped and flashed the boot.

Interesting.
I moved over from ColorOS to oxygen OS, wiped the device then just booted a patched boot img, and installed direct.
I assume I flash ota and go onto magisk and do inactive slot? Where does the issue lie what method should I have gone down?

Hmmm. Well you should be fine if you patched the boot and let magisk do the install. I only suggested wiping since you said you flashed the img from the bootloader.
You might run into the same problem I have with the 9RT. I too upgraded from color to oos and couldn’t update at all, even though I rooted from the magisk app. I had to wait for someone to make a fastboot rom. I had no problems updating color following my method, but not oos after switching. Hopefully that’s not the case for you.
