Hi, in treble enabled devices, you can flash an AOSP Generic System Image (GSI) without twrp. You only have to unlock bootloader of your phone. In this Link you can find the guide to flash GSI on treble devices.

i have find this :

you can watch on down page and in 2 page different version of twrp-3.2.1-0-ZE620KL_unofficial.img

Let me know how you go with root, it's the only thing stopping me from getting this phone right now. I am sure Development will pick up once it is more widely available and released internationally. Custom ROMs I can live without for a while, root I can not!

After Unlock your bootloader you can try to root with genius root or Kingroot But for me i'm waiting the soft developped on this web site just google trduction and it's ok ; )
i'm waiting for this : http://www.ai-development.org/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=34457
i'm registred on this web site but after i should wait 24 hours for post or donwload or talking with developper i'm waiting
Reedit :
Now I'm rooted with Magisk Manager it's ok here

If You Are An Good Developper you can go here :

No just for the ZE620KL modèle with snapdragon 636
You have thé à modèle with snapdragon 845
But i think it's the same method like the ze620kl
You go on Asus support web page for download the unlock app for unlock bootloader After that you can Root with the magisk method but. Don't use the TWRP for now wait your modèle is too young wait tester

there is no unlock app anywhere

[GUIDE] How to install EMUI 9 / Android 9 Beta on EML

Hi,
you want to flash EMUI 9 Beta, are FRP and bootloader unlocked and rooted? Great, here we go.
Disclaimer: I am not responsible for your bricked devices. This has only been tested by a few people with Windows 10 and EML-L29 C432. Other models may or may not work. Please don't use that method if you don't know how to recover your phone from a bricked or semi-bricked state.
It might be a good idea to disable your antivirus if you run into warnings. There is no root.
Steps:
- Download THE TOOL™ v0.2
- Download the matching firmware bundle for your device. With EMUI 9 the firmware files for L09 and L29 differ.
- Extract THE TOOL™
- Extract the firmware bundle, you'll get two ZIPs and some XMLs.
- Start FLASH.bat inside of the extracted tool folder - it will guide you through the procedure.
- I did not have to factory reset. Maybe you will still need to.
- I have no idea if you will be able to receive OTAs or upgrade to future builds.
Disclaimer: Its not my fault or my responsibility if you brick your phone. I have almost no spare time at the moment, so I will probably not be able to help you. Also, there is no root.
Download:
EML-L09 C432 - Build 9.0.0.47
EML-L29 C432 - Build 9.0.0.45
Massive thanks to:
- @Atarii
- @Androlark
- @ante0
- @dkionline
- @frantorresm5434
- laststandingdroid
- @mankindtw for the original NoCheck recovery
- @Pretoriano80
- @shimp208 for the bundled minimal ADB + Fastboot
- and of course to all the brave testers!
There is no root. Also, please don't blame if your device dies. And I don't know if VoLTE works.

yes c432
Will this work by sideloading the firmware with ADB (without root and unlocked bootloader)?
my phone is locked. So I don think this will work for me.
VoLTE works perfect!
No su message
The script always end with this no su error. I don't get the permantly grant root message.
I tried the script several times. But everytime the same error....
Any new info on possible root with this? Or do we have to wait till the full EMUI 9 release for that?

one way only huawei service center and flash by test point or all time update from funkyhuawei.club I have sam case
I already unlocked my bootloader and currently rooted on EMUI 8.1, got everything I need to do it with Android Pie. I've been looking into other ROMs like Lineage and AOSP, but I haven't found any good info for the P20... Only for the P20 Pro and Lite, which really sucks, it feels like the normal P20 doesn't even exist, a lot of forums only have subs for the Pro and Lite, it's very annoying.
What is stopping me, or anyone that was lucky enough to root before Huawei stopped that, from rooting EMUI 9? I don't have a lot of experience with android and roms so I'm kinda fuzzy on details.
Morning,
All is alright but... it is not possible to root p20 (some people explained same like genius but i'm not genius)
Where is the best method to root huawei p20.
Thx in advance have a nice day

Got it right. Used these files with instructions on OP
You must be on stock emui. And rooted. So first flash back your stich system.img en stock recovery. Then follow the tutorial in the OP.

LOL! IN YOUR DREAMS BUDDY! xD
Oppo-RealMe = Won't allow you to unlock your bootloader!

Cant we just use Kingoroot or other apps to root the phone and then flash custom recovery using rashr or flashify?

Hello Mate,
You are in the opposite direction.
Kingroot and other such rooting apps only root old devices ( by old I mean devices launched literally 2-3 years back ). Technology has changed now. And also the Android Security and OS integration has changed with time.
New devices now have to have a custom recovery first and then you can root the device through that custom recovery with Magisk OR SuperSU. And to install the custom recovery, you need to unlock the bootloader.
So going step wise in ascending order it is --> Unlock Bootloader --> Install Custom Recovery --> Flash Root App ( Magisk / SuperSU ) --> Enjoy

Point # 1 : Realme phones do not have a fastboot recovery installed. So there is literally no way to unlock the bootloader without entering fastboot recovery mode ( correct me if I am wrong ).
Point # 2 : Even if there is any way to unlock the bootloader, there is no Official support from Realme for unlocking the bootloader which means you lose the warranty the moment you unlock your bootloader.
Point # 3 : Realme is currently working on their own brand new UI different than Color OS which will take at least Q3 of 2019 so don't expect any Official support.
What we can do :
ALL the Realme users should put up a request to Realme for providing Official bootloader unlocking support just like Xiaomi so that we can all enjoy some cool custom roms or maybe tweak the Color OS as we want. The more the requests the more Realme will listen to us.
A dedicated Realme Official Community Forum is going to start on October 31 where we all can put our requests for providing bootloader unlocking support as well as for changes and bug fixes in the current Color OS. I guess the request for changes in the Color OS UI will only happen in the new Realme UI as they will take suggestions from us that what we want and then apply that in the new Realme UI which they will provide later. Also we know that Realme will still be related to Oppo for at least 1-2 years more so don't expect a BIG difference like a nearly Stock Android type of Realme UI. The new Realme UI will definitely be somewhat like a copy of iOS just like the ColorOS of Oppo and Funtouch of Vivo.
( FYI : Oppo, Vivo, OnePlus are all brother companies who are under 1 single Parent company which is BBK Electronics and even if Realme has now seperated from Oppo, I assume it is still under BBK Electronics, so all these 4 smartphones companies are actually just 1 single company operating with different sub brand name.

The article says that flashing TWRP requires an unlocked bootloader and links to this article which ultimately says
This article is under development and needs an update. OPPO has high security on their smartphones & needs individual development. This is a newly launched smartphone, therefore, will take some time. I will update the article ASAP

Yes.
It is a clickbait.
Today at the end of 2018 the most popular, trusted, secure and REAL Android development forum is XDA and developers around the globe put forth their Custom ROM development only on XDA.
It is useless, also not safe to trust any private website for any kind of custom Rom. XDA is the only and ultimate place to search for and trust on any custom ROM :fingers-crossed:

Bro cudnt find this post on madhav sir's twitter page
Hi Guys,
I have an issue with my realme 2 pro (Color OS 5.2), When i make any application like Mcafee Mobile security as a device manager, it keep giving yellow floating notification for system security risk, I have tried multiple things but it doesn't go. Interestingly, i have other apps also set as DEvice manager but the notification only comes when i make McAfee Antivirus as Device manager. I heard that its a known issue with ColorOS, can anybody suggest any fix for this or facing the same issue?

You can search for the firmware and the tool yo flash It

You can find the firmware AND the tool here, justo look for tour model and variant.
If you are stuck ok 7.1.1 you have the chinese variant (00CN) same as i do (i've tried the same)
https://fih-firmware.hikaricalyx.com/hmd_en.html
This page Is from a senior member here on xda, however search your model and variant firmware, if you flash a firmware for other variant YOU WILL KILL YOUR DEVICE
Good luck me if you need further help send me a PM
ah ok... by firmware you mean stock rom ^^
i allready tried to flash the android 8 & 9 from that page

Click on the tool icon and follow the instructions

I cant do Firmware Upgrade with Nokia Online Service Tools ver. 6.2.8.
Its shows me this Error Message:

What should i do?

Question Any popular CUSTOM ROM that supports the Nokia G20 ?

I want to install a custom ROM on my Nokia G20 once the official support ends on May 2024.
I visited this page and searched the supported list but couldn't find Nokia G20.
Any custom ROM available for download that supports the G20 ?
I don't want to download a ROM from a random source. My main focus is security which is why I don't want to continue using this device after May 2024.

I wrote "not yet". Does that mean there is hope ? Specifically which ROM can I expect to support the G20 in the near future ? LineageOS ?
Also someone told me something about the bootloader. I don't know much about Android. He told me that Nokia does not allow installation of custom ROMs. Is this true ? If yes then how am I supposed to install a custom ROM even if a project starts supporting the G20 ?

Ah it all depends brother if someone builds a ROM for the device, but if nobody does, there's just no hope.
and it's not true you can still install custom ROMs on Nokia devices, You can surely unlock it's bootloader and you need to install a custom recovery in order to install a ROM. And about how you'd know, there's just no way. like just keep checking the Xda forums of the Device Nokia G20

Hello Friends~! I bought one of these phones specifically to root and build a rom for, since I saw it was lacking any options. I have to finish a project I am working on, so give me a couple weeks max and I should have some stuff up for y'all.

I wrote "not yet". Does that mean there is hope ? Specifically which ROM can I expect to support the G20 in the near future ? LineageOS ?
Also someone told me something about the bootloader. I don't know much about Android. He told me that Nokia does not allow installation of custom ROMs. Is this true ? If yes then how am I supposed to install a custom ROM even if a project starts supporting the G20 ?

As far as your other question, I like to do three builds, one is a Recovery Rom that is Stock, the second is a Stock Rom that is Rooted, the third one being Lineage with Root. I traditionally put Gapps on there, the mini. I can do images without Gapps if requested, etc.

I want to install a custom ROM on my Nokia G20 once the official support ends on May 2024.
I visited this page and searched the supported list but couldn't find Nokia G20.
Any custom ROM available for download that supports the G20 ?
I don't want to download a ROM from a random source. My main focus is security which is why I don't want to continue using this device after May 2024.

Hi,
With an unlocked bootloader you can root your device. Then, you can extract vendor files and build a rom from scratch.
For those people that have bootloader unlocked, please, upload vendor files to a git repo.
