Root and Bootloop problem fix [Tested on RMX1993EX]

I tried to root my device with this instruction: https://forum.xda-developers.com/realme-x2/how-to/root-howto-t4011357
But I don't installed Manager.apk first. That might cause. But I don't know cause clearly, device was in boot loop.
I tried flash vbmeta and boot etc. but hadn't got luck.
Finally successfully turned on with stock ROM and then installed custom ROM and rooted.
My model is Euro RMX1993(EX)
Here is the what I did:
1. Installed Fastboot flashable ROM with fastboot.
2. Downloaded RMX1993EX_11.C.05 from https://www.realme.com/eu/support/software-update and installed it with TWRP
3. Cleaned cache/Dalwik, Format and Rebooted to system. Finally it's successfully booted up. :victory:
Then I installed Lineage OS with instruction step by step. After turned up phone I downloaded and installed Magisk manger apk from
https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/tag/manager-v7.5.1
Then I rebooted to TWRP recovery again and installed Magisk zip.
Then directly rebooted to System. This time it's booted and root was success. Didn't installed touched vbmeta etc.
I hope it might help someone. It was very long road about 24 hours for me.
Update:
I reinstalled stock ROM and installed apk before flashed twrp &vbmeta. This time it's worked and finally I successfully rooted stock ROM.

Didn´t faced this like you. I installed LOS from RUI and Magisk on the guided way without issues (I have RMX1993 also). What´s your ctsProfile status in magisk? False or true?

Now it's working well. How could I show ctsProfile. I tried terminal emulator and su to get root access. Then did props command. But it doesn't seem to there.

In Magisk Manager you have to "Tap to start SafetyNet check".

Oh I see. Thanks. It's ctsProfile: true. (Now I'm on stock rom with root)

I don't have RMX1993(EX) anymore. But below might help you.
If you are on ColorOS (Android 9) or RUI1 (Android 10) then you can directly follow the bootloader unlock tutorials on the internet. But if you are on RUI2 (Android 11) then you need to downgrade to RUI1 first.
I also did the same procedure.
But below is for RMX1901CN Realme X device procedure. I believe it would give you a hint.
1. I found Rollback_RMX1901_11_OTA_1190_all_EyyIUd8KYxPI.ozip (for Chinese version) firmware from Realme X Official Telegram group.
2. Then I opened it from the file manager and the device rebooted automatically and the downgrade firmware was installed. After that, I unlocked it with the DeepTesting app for RUI1 with instructions that I found on the internet.
Also, you might try this method: https://c.realme.com/in/post-details/1476520599785316352
Also, comments on this post might help (I have no idea Realme X2 Pro instruction is works for your device but JFYI): https://c.realme.com/in/post-details/1478098096796815360

OFP file needed urgently for CN version

DOES ANYONE HAVE THE OFP file for chinese rom?
Here is my situation:
1. changed recovery to orangefox successfully through bootloader
2. rooted with magisk 20.3 successfully
3. tried to install viper4android root version did not work as went in to bootloop. uninstalled and back to normal.
4. tried to install viper4android non root version through orange fox recovery. Phone now keeps loading into bootloader
5. used uninstaller.zip to uninstall non root viper driver, still i keep going back to bootloader. however i am still able to boot into recovery.
6. device undetectable in bootloader mode and cannot execute adb commands anymore.
Pls. help if any solution without formatting data etc and resetting the phone as I do not want to do manual backup and restore. However if that is the only solution, then no choice but would like to see if can be sorted without this.
Edit: Someone else under Paranoid Rom was having same issue and they fixed by flashing Vendor. I did the same now i am stuck at yellow realme logo.
Edit: couldnt find a way to reboot into the original ROM so had to install from beginning at least was able to backup due to OrangeFox recovery.

Mi Pad 4 won't flash

Hi,
I have Carbon ROM with Android 10,
I wanted to flash Bliss ROM, and it says that I need a rooted device,
So I've downloaded Magisk and follow the instruction, created a boot.img and flashed it in fastboot, then I did the same only with twrp recovery & Magisk, flashed it and now it is wiered and I'm not sure what is the problem,
I have fastboot BUT when I try to perform any command, it shutsdown and preety useless, I've tried from PC, if I try from MAC, I can boot into twrp but every operation is causing the tablet to reboot.. So I can't even flash a stock ROM,
In PC, the recognized Android device (When in fastboot mode) I update it's driver to Android bootloader device
How can I solve it?
Thanks !!!

Redmi Note 9 Bootloop to recovery - help needed

Hi all,
I have a rooted redmit note 9 that was running the stock rom (EU version i believe as i am UK based) perfectly well for several months until today when then latest over the air update installed and my phone is now stuck in a bootloop where i can only access the custom PBRP recovery (installed from when i rooted previously). I can also access fastboot. I have tried wiping all data and cache etc, i have tried reflashing the magisk patched stock rom that previously worked, i have also tried flashing vbmeta that i flashed previously but still no luck. This is my only phone so I really need to get it working again.
I was about to try re-flashing the stock rom with SP tool but it tells me the scatter file is invalid.
Not sure what else to try now. I also note that when i PBRP loads up it always asks for a password however i dont have a password on the device.
Please could someone suggest something i could try?

your devices is encrypted try flash other custom rom first then try revert to stock hope it help u out

Thanks very much for your response. Based on your advice i tried to flash the latest Kraken 11 Vanilla rom from this fourm, however after installing via TWRP now i can't even get into recovery anymore, just goes straight to fastboot.
Any other suggestions please?

I have now managed to get back in to TWRP and tried flashing lineage latest rom but still i am stuck in a boot loop taking me to fastboot this time.
Please can someone help suggest hwo i can get my phone working agian. At this point i dont care which rom i end up (custom or stock) with as long as i can get it to function again

If your device is rooted, you can NOT update the system using the OTA (over-the-air), or the device will be stucked in bootloop.
If your device is rooted, you need to update the system MANUALLY, using the fastboot or spflashtool.
I suggest to update the system using the fastboot.
Now, you need to flash the whole MIUI again, except userdata and you will have your device back.

For anyone with a asimilar problem i eventually managed to fix my issue by using miflash tool version 20180528 and flashing merlin_eea_global_images_V12.0.10.0.QJOEUXM_20210413.0000.00_10.0_eea_c4a9d5d7fc fastboot version which i downloaded from the xiami site.
I had to try this multiple times because the extraction of the file did not seem to be correct on the first attempts.

Poco x3 nfc not booting after flashing magisk

Yesterday i flashed magisk (using the new method of course) and when i tried to boot it would stop on the miui boot screen. I can go into fastboot and recovery but i dont have twrp installed.
If anybody could help i would be grateful.
Update: The phone now says system is destroyed when i try to boot into recovery, should i just fresh install miui?
Also there is a roll back function that triggers when you install unverified img files so i think the cause is that.
Fresh install worked.
now my device works
