For the past few days I've been trying to root my devices. Tried using random numbers generators for bootloader code, tried using update.app with recovery_ramdis.img patched, etc.
Sadly i cant find a way to do it. Is there any hope? Maybe someone achieved it already
You can root with a locked bootloader, but i doubt that this will be made possible to a Mate 20 Lite device....

Since root has been achieved will this aid in unlocking the bootloader? Did it ever happen with the S5?
Root and bootloader unlock are two very different things tbh. Just because we have root doesn't mean it'll help unlock bootloader. Only thing is that maybe the devs attention will be turned to BL now that they don't need to worry about root.

Ok, I didn't know if having greater access to the system would help with the bootloader issue. Thanks!
Finding root gives you elevated access to the file system. To get a customer recovery, the bootloader must be modified (which requires root to access). But, to modify our locked bootloader to put on a customer recovery, you'll needs it's encryption key. Without it, no changes can be made and the 'chain of trust' is broken and the phone won't boot.
Hey Guys,
i have some Questions about Rooting my EVA-L09.
I saw that i have to unlock the Bootloader on the Huawei Site so i can paste the code in ADB.
But my warranty will be vanished if i do this right?
Is there any possible Way not to Vanish my warrranty?
And how can i root this device?
Only found something about EVA-L19.

You need to unlock the bootloader
So there is no possible way to unlock my boot loader without Huawei getting informed ?
And I saw many bricks after rooting the device ...
I don't want anything great to do. Just my root access and stock rom
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!

I did soft brick nd fixed it,and now its bootloader is locked and I cant find a way to obtain it right now cause huawei would not provide any codes right now.

You cannot root without unlocked Bootloader (like in the title).
But if your phone previously had unlooked Bootloader, you had to keep the code because the code is one and the same for lifetime for the particular phone (with the same code you can always unlock the same phone)
Huawei doesen't provide codes for already a year, but if you searched on XDA (asked and answered really many rimes), code for P9 can be obtained for up to 5 Euros by DC Unlocker or Ministry of solutions

Hi all, i don't follow modding world from a while so i don't know what happened more or less into the last 3 years, so now that i need to root the device i wanted to do some questions.
I bought a realme 8 pro at the dayone and now i have the last update installed (so realme UI 4.0). I wanted to do the root but i don't know how much realme support it, if the bootloader is locked or not, ecc. ecc.
I saw in this phone thread that there is a method (the guide is written in May, 14 so it seems very recent) about unlocking bootloader (so i guess is locked?) using deeptest, i tried to read but i didn't really understand what kind of thing is that. So i wanted to ask, what is deeptest? if it is locked, if i successfuly unlock this bootloader what happens to AIO updates? (I guess there will be no updates such as other devices?). If the AIO updates stop to work, Is there a way to manually download and install updates? Can i root this device using magisk for example? I have seen there is something, but there are these things i can't understand.
Thanks in advance for replies and sorry for my bad english.
Hi, yup, the bootloader is locked.
Deeptesting is an app by realme used to request an unlock code. You can try this one https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/unlock-bootloader-help.4425415/post-86777721
Try submitting your application, if it tells you "Your model doesn't support deeptesting" you'll have to follow my guide.
Either way, after a bit of waiting, inside Deeptesting → query approve result → start Deeptesting.
Doing this allows your phone to boot into fastboot. Where you can unlock your phone using
Code:
fastboot flashing unlock
Unlocking the bootloader will wipe your data.
Hi, thanks for the reply! So there is a method to unlock the bootloader. But if i do it, i can't update anymore my device via OTA, right? How could i do that thing. In addiction, is not possible to obtain root permission without bootloader unlock? Because i need root to save whatsapp messages 'cause the application is stupid and can't do a backup by itself.
In addiction... I downloaded deeptesting and my phone does not support it. Yeah
You can get OTAs if, and only if, you didn't modify the firmware. Unlocking itself doesn't break OTAs, but rooting/custom kernels/vbmetas etc. will.
You can't get root without unlocking. As per Whatsapp, I think you can use ADB to back up data without root.
Thanks again. As i know ADB is disabled for whatsapp from a while. Ok then, thanks anyway for all informations. I guess after the bootloader unlock i can install magisk to obtain root acces.
