EMUI10 rootable? - Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers

Can EMUI10 be rooted with Magisk like EMUI9?
Will the Bootloader stay unlocked after doing the update or did they again integrate some things that make trouble?

EMUI 10 will lock the bootloader and can't be unlocked unless you downgrade to 9.1.
So there's no root if you can't unlock the bootloader.

Locked Bootloader

My Bootloader is not unlockable. Bootloader unlock allowed = no. As far as I know I can't change to yes and there is no aosp roms on locked Bootloader. So my question is what can I do with a locked Bootloader? Also if I root on locked Bootloader can I still receive updates from Sony via ota?

Looking there will help you, there is no way to unlock the bootloader if it says 'no' you can still root your phone by downgrading to kitkat 108 and using the EasyRootTool to root your phone and then Nuts dual recovery installer. You will still be able to get OTA updates however they will remove root, you would need a pre-rooted firmware to keep root.
Okay so if install the previous rooted. 242 ftf I'll have root even after otas? And say I installed a 4k mod or stereo speaker mod, could I still receive ota?
Any OTA update will remove root meaning it will not exist on your phone. Any update you use will need to be pre-rooted in order to keep root on your phone.

Don't know??? Never try to relock it...so you have to flash stock rom and your BL will be automatically locked...

As far as I know if you are running a custom boot image you won't be able to relock the bootloader on nougat. It's a feature to prevent you soft-bricking your phone, because if you lock it and it detects unauthorised firmware it will refuse to boot.
To relock nougat, simply use the dload method to get a completely stock device and you will see that the bootloader is now relocked.

You can look at this thread. Its have guides to unlock your bootloader and how to install TWRP also updating firmware. https://forum.xda-developers.com/p10/how-to/guide-manual-updgrade-to-update-oreo-t3758286
But beware, unlocking bootloader will do a factory reset. Backup your data first using hisuite or twrp. Otherwise your data will gone forever.

WTF dude.....
You relocked the bootloader with TWRP? You are really lucky to not have a bricked phone.
Unfortunately for you, to replace twrp with stock recovery and get the phone back to stock state you'll have to unlock the bootloader again as we cant do anything with a locked bootloader.
*>Unlock your phone like you did before.
*>Make sure you have twrp installed.
*>Follow this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-9/development/tool-flash-official-firmware-recovery-t3769279
(just don't put image of twrp in the directory since you are aiming to go stock)

I've unlocked and relocked my BL about 10 times with no adverse effects that i can see apart from after relock BL displays 'relocked'. I've also loaded all 3 different versions of TWRP in between and about 4 gsi images. Now back to stock B136 with magisk 17.1 and BL unlocked again with safetynet passing and banking apps working plus google play showing 'certified'. Why does unlocking and rocking BL cause issue? apart from the obvious full wipe required. Isn't it just a software flag getting set and reset? It's a genuine question cause i really don't know.

Boy aren't you lucky. Some guys have a hard time with relocking bootloader.Maybe you are just lucky or they're doing something wrong.
But how did you flash twrp with a locked bootloader?
PS im also having the relocked status in fastboot. Do you think we can make it back to 'Locked'? Just in case of warranty issues.

About OTA updates after unlocking and re-locking bootloader

So I unlocked my bootloader a week ago in order to root my Samsung galaxy M21 Android 11 One UI 3.1, but since the steps were unclear and I was kinda scared I just ditched the idea of rooting. So I searched on Reddit and etc, once you unlock bootloader whether you get OTA updates. There were mixed answers, but then I found a thread saying that I could re-lock the bootloader so I went with the tutorial and re-locked it!!! My question is once you unlock and then lock the bootloader again will you get OTA updates or not???

Yup, you should get OTA updates if you flashed stock rom and relocked your bootloader

I actually unlocked the bootloader on my Mi 10T Pro 5G and then after a few weeks I decided to re-lock it. I installed the stock fastboot ROM and the locked the bootloader with the "fastboot oem lock" command. Will I still receive OTA updates? Thanks!
