and YOU are the only one responsible for any damages done to your device
==== Notes/Prerequisets/Links ====
* you should have already unlocked your bootloader (if not then start the process as soon as possible because it's going to take a while).
* backup your stuff, make sure you have sufficient charge just in case anything went wrong.
* download the unoffical TWRP port from Here (get the latest version)
* get the latest magisk from Here
* install device usb drivers
* set up fastboot properly Method A, Method B (using chocolaty)
- - - - - - - - - - - -
instructions :
1- shutdown your device completely.
2- enter fastboot mode by pressing and holding the Vol Down + Power Button button until you see xiaomi's mi bunny with a blue "fastboot" text underneath it.
3- connect your device to your pc via usb cable.
4- on your pc check if you have fastboot configured properly and your device recognized by typing:
Code:
fastboot devices
if it's detected then you're good to proceed to the next step.
5- flash the twrp recovery image by using the usual fastboot commands.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
in our case it should look something like:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-TWRP-3.3.0-0517-XIAOMI8LITE-CN-wzsx150.img
6- unplug usb cable and hold the Vol up + Power Button (don't let go of the buttons untill the devices vibrates) and let it boot to the twrp recovery you just installed.
7- if you rebooted successfully, you should be at TWRP splash screen, if greeted with a slider slide it and continue.
8- in the main menu of TWRP, go to "Install" choose the magisk zip file you downloaded and flash it, when done reboot the device.
9- congratulations friend, you're now rooted and have TWRP as your recovery Happy Flashing :highfive:

just in case

Is it possible to just accesss the TWRP to edit build.prop enabling camera2 Api?
If I remember is something about:
fastboot boot twrp.img
and then:
setprop persist.camera.HAL3.enabled 1
Without the need of root the device.
Thanks for the guide!

I'm not really sure if you could do it with TWRP's built in file manager without root
You could try
I've seen people do it with adb but haven't had the chance to try it yet
take a look here : https://www.google.iq/amp/s/amp.red...gswg/camera2_api_without_root/#ampf=undefined

Thank you for the reply. I've done it in Mi A1 but I don't know if it's the same procedure because of the MIUI. One of the links says that we have to change something in kernel to do it.
It would be good expert people try it to see what method works. It's sad that the Mi 8 Lite doesn't have a proper forum until now.

i enabled it in stock miui by adding "persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1" to my build prop and then rebooting

What method did you use to change build.prop?

Can't find a similar guide for the Mi 8, is it the same process as for the lite ?

Thank you man. I would like to know if anyone can do the trick without root. I've bought a Mi 8 Lite for my wife and it would be nice to her receive the updates from Xiaomi and use the GCam the same way she receives in Mi A1.

Hi Malek,
When you first boot to TWRP, were you asked for the decryption password? If yes, did you just format data to skip this? I was asked for the password and my screen PIN did not work. Just wondering if there is no other choice that to format data.

to this point i don't really understand how encryption works on this device
it's on by default i guess
so what i finally did the other day to be kinda sure of what's happening
i flashed stock rom in Mi Flash with the clean all option checked
i set up the phone for the first time without setting any fingerprint or security or anything
after that i flashed twrp
from twrp i flashed dm verity and encryption disable
get it from here https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/universal-dm-verity-forceencrypt-t3817389
(make aure to read the first post)
then formatted data
after that the booted up and i set it up normally
and then booted to twrp again to flash latest magisk
now when i check if my device is encrypted using this adb command "adb shell getprop ro.crypto.state"
i get "unencrypted"
so i guess it works? i don't know lol

It looks like your phone was not encrypted (or was encrypted with MIUI's default password) when you flashed TWRP, as you had clean flashed stock then set up without setting security. That you could start TWRP to flash "dm versity and encryption disable", without being asked to input a password first, shows that TWRP was able to handle the default encryption (or no encryption) of the clean MIUI install.
In my case I already have a screen PIN set up on my phone before trying to install TWRP, and this version of TWRP can't handle it. Another difference is that I have not actually flashed TWRP onto the phone but have merely booted to TWRP via fastboot. I wouldn't have thought that this would affect TWRP's ability to decrypt the DATA partition though.
In hindsight I should have just done the minimum setup after the phone was wiped by the bootloader unlocking process before installing TWRP. I guess that unless there is another version of TWRP out that can handle the screen PIN encryption, my only option is to wipe clean the phone so that I can repeat what you did. However, now that I have reinstalled everything on the phone, I am a bit reluctant to do this just to get root. I think I will wait until there is an AOSP ROM available and do the wipe/format at the time of switching. Hopefully I don't have to wait too long!

An update: I've now got over this encryption thing. It is indeed the screen PIN that was causing me problems. While I had tried removing the PIN and all fingerprints last time, I had powered down the phone immediately after removing the PIN and booted into fastboot mode. Today I thought I better try it one more time: after removing the PIN, reboot the phone to system first before powering it down and restarting in fastboot mode. This cycles the phone system at least once without the PIN so hopefully any traces of the PIN would really be wiped. And indeed it works - the booted TWRP (i.e. not flashed to phone) has no problems reading my phone and I could install Magisk.
So I now have stock recovery + Magisk on my Mi8 Lite, which is the minimum I wished to do to it. Maybe at a later date I would flash TWRP onto the phone as well.

i cant unlock my mi 8 lite, say user portrait scores too low or black, i activate all need, oem, usb, sync device. no work, any help?

Everything is ok for global rom.
For the language twrp asked directly at first launch for it and you don't need anymore magisk, you can install it directly from twrp. ( advance/install root ) it'll install the version 17.1 and you can update it from the app on the phone.
No problem for reboot into twrp ( volume up + power) even with fingerprint.

yeah i know there's no problem in turning the phone off then rebooting manually with the buttons
but i was talking about using "fastboot reboot recovery" command to reboot to recovery from fastboot directly
anyways glad everything worked for you friend : )

Asus ZenPad 8.0 (Z380KL) Information Repository

Just going to dump all the info I've found about this device into this thread. All the threads pertaining to this thread are in Russian and I can't read Russian, so this might be helpful to any English speaking owners of this tablet.
Special thanks to Telegram user @SSDD_1744 (don't know your XDA/Reddit user, I'm sorry) for basically spoonfeeding me all these instructions!
WARNING: If you need to flash to stock for whatever reason, be sure to download a image file specific to your country. If you don't, you'll hard brick your device that can only be fixed QPST (supposedly).
Rooting:
(Tested on 5.0.2)
Install KingRoot. Let it root your device.
Install Super-SU Me, to get rid of the bloatware that comes with KingRoot.
Installing Xposed:
I used Flashify to flash TWRP. Be sure to flash the right version though (2.8.7.7 v2) or else you won't be able to mount cache.
Then download Xposed (version sdk21 ARM) and flash it.
WARNING: Flash v1 of the modded TWRP and you won't be able install any apps after flashing Xposed.
Unbricking:
Still working on it. Downloaded QPST but have not been able to get QPST 2.7 to read the tablet.

Instructions for obtaining the rights to Ruth phones / tablets.
Tested on Android 4.4+
perhaps this algorithm works on Android 5+, I have no way to verify
All transactions with their phones / tablets are performing at your own risk !!!
To get started, read this post from start to finish and only then proceed to action!
Introduction
This instruction is written based on my own experience obtaining root on their plates, and then on the Xperia M2, bought plemyashki. For instructions attached versions of applications that were relevant at the time, the new version can download the relevant topics on the forum, there will find all information on how to work with the proposed programs and algorithms for their actions (links to topics added).
For all the action with your phone / tablet you are responsible for yourself!
Download all the necessary tools to obtain Root (of instructions / topics on the forum), obespechte for phone / tablet access to the Internet (Wi-F / mobile data) and let the phone settings / tablet installation from unknown sources.
Needed Downloads
KingRoot_V4.5.0B202.apk (6.76 MB)
Me_5.9.apk-SuperSU (9.07 MB)
V2.49 Beta.apk SuperSU (5.63 MB)
eu.chainfire.supersu.pro.205.apk (52,88 KB)
Next in series:
1. Install KingRoot .
Get Ruth's right, in the device may reboot.
2. Set SuperSU-Me, .
Run the grantor, the program deletes KingRoot and Chinese KingUser with replacement SuperSu.
Remove the longer SuperSu-Me the desired program.
3. Obnovyaem SuperSu to the latest version. Then set PRO-key .
Installing Pro-key Optionally !!! Use Cases SuperSu without installing key .
4. Open SuperSu and on-demand update binary SU normal way. After a successful update, confirm the request to restart.
5. To make sure that everything is done correctly, check the correct installation and operation of Ruth (mount the system partition on the record), I used the Root Checker Pro and Root Explorer , respectively.
The output is a complete rut without kitayschiny with SuperSu Pro. We use and enjoy

=====================================================================================
Recommended way to flash ROMs:
1) Download TWRP. Use adb to boot (NOT flash) into TWRP. Flash ROM there.
2) use KingRoot to root. Use Flashify to flash the ROM.

Flashing TWRP on 6.0.1 (Sept 1, 2016 patch):
1) grab your drivers (W10: boot into "no driver signature verification mode" to install the drivers needed for fastboot)
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1cGcoDCvmTxfXWNTG0iOXHw1WScmYBrKS
2) turn on debugging
3) type in "adb devices", verify that your computer sees your tablet (if you don't have ADB/Fastboot, get https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790)
4) type in "adb reboot bootloader"
5) you'll see three options: 1. Enter SD DL mode, 2. Factory Reset, 3. Exit update mode
6) type in "fastboot devices", verify that your computer sees your tablet
7) grab your TWRP file (http://vasy.ru/TWRP/P024/) and type in "fastboot flash recovery [replace w/ location of the TWRP file].img"
8) once it says "finished", click factory reset mode (use volume buttons to navigate, power button to enter)
9) it should reboot into TWRP, slide to allow modifications
10) Boom, TWRP is installed.
OPTIONAL, BUT HELPS TO KEEP TWRP INSTALLED: Flash Magisk.
That way, stock recovery won't overwrite TWRP when you reboot.
IF YOU WANT TO KEEP TWRP BUT DON'T WANT Magisk:
1) After first boot into TWRP, turn off tablet.
2) Then turn on and hold Volume Up + Power. That will boot you into Bootloader Mode.
3) Go into factory reset and it should boot you into TWRP.
Now, it's safe to boot into the OS.
(TL;DR: Boot into TWRP twice before booting into the OS or else stock recovery will overwrite TWRP.)
Flashing LineageOS:
1) DL LOS from https://download.lineageos.org/P024
2) DL GApps from http://opengapps.org/ (choose 7.1)
3) boot into TWRP
4) go into Wipe, slide to wipe
5) go to Install, click on LOS file > add to queue, click on Open GApps file > add to queue, flash
6) wait til it's done, click "reboot"
7) wait a while (took mine 3 or so minutes to boot)
8) enjoy!

I believe my bootloader is still locked. And I could not reproduce/ write exactly what I did. But, in my case, just for information, when I want to go back into twrp, I can boot into bootloader (power volume up) and then option 2 reset the device gives me the twrp... I am not sure if that is how you get it, but for me, I still had twrp.
I think i will install magisk after reading your post.

I don't think unlocking the BL is necessary for flashing LOS. But yes, that's how I get into TWRP as well.
Hello I'm new in the forum and I write from Italy, yesterday unfortunately I had the brilliant idea to downgrade my Asus z380kl through ADB, Fastboot and TWRP from pc so far so good, I go to flash the new rom and gives me error, I try to restore the backup here too error result? Tablet locked the only way to make it recognize to the PC is with ASUS FLASH TOOL ROM problem in format.raw unobtainable not even on the Russian site. Any good soul has the possibility to let me download it? Thanks, Sorry English but it is a translation of the very useful Google translate.

Can you still access fastboot, then at least you can flash twrp as described before in this thread and install from twrp lineageos p024 (lineage-14.1-20180105-nightly-P024-signed.zip) and Open gapps to get google playstore etc , select Arm, (not 64) then version 7.1, then Pico would work.
If you have twrp, you at least can still use your asus... I have found no way to flash original stock... stock must not be flashed from twrp.
Since you mention twrp already used, you can try: turn your device off, then press volume up then the bootloader menu comes, select 2: reset to enter twrp(where it says reset. if you had flashed twrp, that is how you can get into twrp) from there, install lineage os and gapps from micro sd card
My rom is MMB29M.WW_P024-V5.9.4-20170613

OPTIONAL, BUT HELPS TO KEEP TWRP INSTALLED: Flash Magisk.
That way, stock recovery won't overwrite TWRP when you reboot.

I assume this is on stock rom ? What version of magisk would work? I found I can be back at stock with my twrp backup so ..
But magisk 15.3 zip failed to install on stock-
I also used supersu v82 working on stock, or lineageos.
Would you know what magisk works on lineageos?
I like the exsd extension of magisk so I would like to try it on this device, either stock or lineageos

Yes it was. I flashed 15.2 on both stock and LOS. I've heard of some issues with 15.x so you can try .2 or 14.x.

What error was given? What do you see when you connect it to a computer? What does "tablet locked" mean? Would help if you gave some pictures too.
I'm currently in the process of getting the RAW files/service ROMs for AFT but I don't have an ETA on when I'll be able to get that.
No on the tablet I have not installed TWRP and no other recovery.When I go into the original recovery of the tablet there is always the screen with the lock closed at the bottom right and there is no way to show it to the PC even with adb sideload, l 'only program that recognizes me the tablet is Asus flash tool, however, as I have already written the damn ROM in RAW format is untraceable.

Hallo Friend!
I am about to test your guide. I think it is most decent among other guides on the net...
Could you please just tell me if it's gonna work on:
Android 6.0.1 MMB29M
MIUI 8.2.1.0 (MBCMIDL) Stable
kernel 3.10.84-perf-gfe86e7b
bootloader UNLOCKED
Is superSU by default included in the TWRP you gave? No need to download it additionally from somewhere?
What about warning about "dm-verity" on official TWRP website?
This device uses dm-verity!
This means that swiping to allow system modifications will prevent you from being able to boot if you are using the stock kernel. In order to bypass dm-verity's boot prevention, you will have to install a kernel that has dm-verity disabled in the fstab.

Should this be any concern that the phone will not boot up again? Should this be disabled first?
Is it better to use the TWRP version you provided (3.0.3.0? not listed on official TWRP website? why?) or the lastest 3.1.0.0?

Ok just two questions then, because I'm not sure what you can't understand. Please explain.
1) What Android, MIUI and kernel did you root?
2) Do you have SuperSu.zip in TWRP 3.0.3 by default? You didn't say anything in your guide about downloading it and from where + what version.

This twrp. Img it's for all the versions but only for mi max. Not the prime . This twrp doesn't contain superSU. If I remember correctly. But if on the TWRP contain the super su. Don't say yes. Just flash it like I saying on the guide. Maybe they upload a newest version. You can use the new. I think I put the official website . I will check it.
Ok thanks for the answer. Please check from where I download SuperSu - which version would be best.
Please tell me your Android, kernel and MIUI version that you rooted.

Waiting to tell me if everything went fine with the installation and the flashing
Hey, tried following Your guide to install a new rom last night. Great guide for noobs like me, but it may be worth renaming the thread to something like "How to flash whatever makes You happy on to Your Mi Max". These instructions seem to work fine regardless of what's being flashed. Great job, mate!
So I finally tried it and it was successful for me as well! But I used the latest version of TWRP (3.1.0) and SuperSu (2.79-20161205). Please add a point in your tutorial to upload SuperSU.zip to the phone first, because out of emotion, I forgot... So I flashed TWRP, booted it and then... ups... no SuperSu So I wanted to reboot the phone to upload SuperSU but since only SuperSU patches dm-verity (the thing I was afraid of the most - I told you before), my phone got into boot-loop and didn't want to start. So I just uploaded SuperSU to a memory card, entered Fastboot Mode again with key-combination, plugged the cable, typed "fastboot reboot-bootloader" command and was again in TWRP to flash SuperSu from my memory card.... ufff.
So I would reedit it a bit:
0. Copy SuperSU.zip to the phone/memory card!
1. Go to Settings-About phone-Find the MIUI VERSION, and tap on it for 5-10 times.
2. Go back to settings, sellect adittional settings. click on Developer options, and select enable
3. Find the option USB Debugging and enable it.
4. Download the TWRP recovery from the link
5. rename the file to 'recovery.img'
6. Move the image to the same file where the ADB was installed ( it should be on Computer-> C: -> Adb )
7. Open the adb folder
8. Press and hold the shift key and right click in the folder
9. click on the option "Open command window here"
10. Boot your device on fastboot mode by turning it off, pressing Power and the Volume Down buttons together, and then connect it with your computer
11. First type this command "fastboot devices" to check if your device is into fastboot mode
12. Enter the command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
13. Enter the command "fastboot boot recovery.img" - the phone will get disconnected from your PC automatically
14. Your phone is now in TWRP recovery mode (it takes about 30-60 seconds before FastBoot screen switches into TWRP - wait patiently)
15. select Install Zip and click on 'SuperSu.zip'
16. corfirm the flash
17. reboot your device
18. DONT PANIC IF YOU DEVICE WONT TURN ON. Sometimes need to wait 10-20 secs.
Hey, I just got connected with WiFi and new MIUI 8.2.3.0 MBCMIDL wants to be installed, although the phone is rooted with bootloader unlocked. Is it safe to apply the update? Is it goona remove root so that I have to go over the process again?
So I tried the update. First time it said it failed, second time it downloaded the whole ROM after which it rebooted device and TWRP started doing "something" - I don't know what. After that the phone didn't want to boot, and what's even better didn't want to run recovery (TWRP), instead it went into fastboot. What I had to do was to use MiPhoneDrivers from this topic: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-max/how-to/guide-install-global-miui8-root-t3435594 (including MiFlash 2015, because 2016 version didn't want to work properly on my PC) and follow the instruction from official MIUI website to flash from scratch the new ROM MIUI 8.2.3.0 which I did. After that my phone was alive again. I installed TWRP and rooted the phone again. Now I've got MIUI 8.2.30 rooted. :] End of the story so far. My settings left untouched - icons, wallpaper etc. So that would be the way to update MIUI if they prepare a new one.
Is there anyway to root the phone without connecting it to pc?

Thanks for saving me the trouble.
Can someone help with a better method of applying updates?
Will downloading the zip (1.4GB approx) and flashing via TWRP help?

Blackview BV9000 Pro-F ROOT SUCCESS [TWRP + Magisk v16 + Stock Rom]

EDIT: included rough procedures for OEM unlocking, and updated link to recovery-verified.img (Sorry for uploading the wrong file ><)
Hi all bv9000 pro Users!
Recently I went on a journey to root this awesome rugged phone with one purspose: to remove that F*@(#&$ god awful loud annoying sound triggered by the OS when you use a camera app to take a picture + the boot startup sound (A bug blackview hasn't gotten around to fixing).
I successfully managed to port TWRP 3.1.1 from the Blackview bv8000 Pro and run it on the Blackview bv9000 Pro-f!
I've then managed to flash in Magisk to gain root access.
DISCLAIMER: I do not take responsibility for any bricked phones caused by the process, do so at your own risk (yadayadayada).
NOTE 1: Although I've got it running on the bv9000 Pro-F, this image should also work for the non-fullHD version, if someone can test this I'd be happy.
The link to the stock ROM (with the modified recovery img) can be found in the post below.
NOTE 2: No need to download anything other than what I've listed, Magisk is included in my custom recovery to circumvent the need to load the devices encrypted storage (or any other external storage) nothing stops you from mounting external usb storage.
What you'll need:
- USB Mouse (As there is no touchscreen input support, your device should have come with a usb-c otg cable so there's no problem here!)
- MediaTek SP Flash tools (I'd recommend the latest version) https://spflashtool.com/
- unlocked bootloader (You should be able to do this via the developer settings -> unlock OEM Bootloader)
EDIT: To unlock the boot loader, do the following:
1) Go to settings -> unlock OEM Bootloader (tick)
2) plug your device in (assuming you have ADB installed), use adb to access fastboot via. command prompt:
"adb reboot bootloader"
Then once the device is rebooted into fastboot mode
"fastboot oem unlock"
KEEP IN MIND THIS WILL REMOVE ANY FILES, so back them up
- I've done this with windows, but you should be able to repeat with linux no problems!
- A little patience
Pre-preparation:
First install any updates and back up your data (it's just easiest to use the google cloud backup as restoring becomes easy as pie, updating also fixes the setup wizard crashing on first setup). This is necessary because OTA updates cannot be performed with TWRP recovery, and flashing TWRP before doing OTA updates will flick the device into a recovery boot loop.
Install the SP Flash tools, and the MediaTek VCOM Drivers
(I won't link the specifics here, a quick google search should be able to help you, just note you might need to disable driver signature enforcement)
Two options for flashing:
1)
My Full Stock ROM already pre-prepared for flashing:
Patched ROM
No need for extra prep here! you should just be able to load the scatter
2)
My custom patched TWRP stock rom: recovery-verified.img
Blackiew's stock rom: stock rom
- Download the stock rom, backup the recovery-verified.img in the R06 folder, and then replace it with my custom patched TWRP stock rom (file name should be the same).
- Run "CheckSum_Gen.exe" once you replaced the file, it will generate the necessary checksum to allow SP flash tools to successfully flash recovery.
Once you've done with the pre-prep, switch off your device, take a deep breath and you're ready to go!
Steps!
1) Load up SP Flash Tools, select the android scatter file you've downloaded in the R06 folder
2) Select Download Only (I MEAN IT, FORMATTING WILL REMOVE YOUR IMEI AND RENDER THE PHONE USELESS)
3) Deselect everything but recovery (You only want to flash this)
4) Hit download
https://pasteboard.co/HkufwZZ.png
5) Hold volume up + power and plug in your phone, keep the volume up button held
6) very quickly the flash should be complete, and you should be greeted with a big ol' green tick to verify
https://pasteboard.co/HkuiTBB.png
7) Once you're done, remove your USB cable, plug in the OTG then we proceed to flash magisk
8) Hold power + volume up until you reach the bootloader, then use the menu to select recovery
9) You *should* be greeted with the TWRP recovery screen (Which is great success! )
DON'T PANIC IF YOU CANNOT USE THE TOUCH SCREEN, the kernel I've patched is missing this, seems the driver is different between touch screens, just plug in your OTG mouse to continue from here!
10) Use your mouse to first hit cancel, we don't need to decrypt the user data storage.
11) But oh no! it's all in Russian (no problem, Next step sorts that)
12) Use your mouse to navigate the menus as shown here to change to English! (or your preferred language) Change Language
13) Click install, then navigate up folder levels until you are in the root directory
14) scroll down and click on Magisk.zip, install it, allow it to install any apps as system apps (because this will then install to the system image, not the userdata)
15) reboot the phone (if it hasn't rebooted already)
16) You should be able to boot into your usual phones OS, if you don't see Magisk listed in your phone apps, just download it from here:
Magisk Manager
17) Congratulations! You should have complete root access :laugh::laugh::laugh:
Feel free to express your thanks, or list any problems you have, but keep in mind my studies take all my life, so I may not be able to help with all the problems you have
Congrats! Would it work on the BV9000 HD version?
Hi!
From what I've seen they both run the helio p25 chip
(Just a difference in RAM size) so it should.
You're more than welcome to try.
Just keep a backup of the original ROMs recovery. If something goes wrong during the boot to recovery you can easily re flash
hi i tried both optinos but they didn't work for me
I tried the first and the second options and it was showed me same error:
ERROR: STATUS INSUFFICIENT_BUFFER(0XC0010007)
I tried download only, format all and download, if i install original ROM its installing without problems!
In settings-> developer options -> OEM unlocking is enabled
can someone give me tips if I'm doing something wrong. thanks
My phone is Blackview BV9000PRO-F
Hello,
i have the blackview 9000 pro Hd (not full hd)
i first tried your prepared patched rom = not working (get erorrers in step 6)
then i chose step 2 and i was thinking to use the stock rom from the NOT full hd rom
now i get a green screen from the flashing: but after rebooting in recovery nothing happens, just normal reboot then
perhaps this is not so clair for me:
- Download the stock rom, backup the recovery-verified.img in the R06 folder, and then replace it with my custom patched TWRP stock rom (file name should be the same).
- Run "CheckSum_Gen.exe" once you replaced the file, it will generate the necessary checksum to allow SP flash tools to successfully flash recovery.
the file name you posted here " My custom patched TWRP stock rom: recovery-verified.img" is ramdisk-recovery.img
i replaced the ramdisk-recovery.img... it is not clair need to replace recovery-verified.img to?

Hi, you need to unlock the OEM bootloader, if this is still locked it will prevent the flashing of custom ROMS.
I might've missed this step, will update post as necessary.

Enable developer options-> OEM unlocking is enabled
Is that enough for this MTK phone to be unlocked the bootloader ?
And tried the both options but the results are same.
I have been unlocking bootloaders on many phones but first time MTK phones. If i try with adb commands it recognize when is in the android with command adb devices and show my device but if I try reboot bootloader and check in device manager in windows its show its connected and drives are correct but if i try to show the devices, it doesn't show any device connected
Hi,
You need to install fastboot drivers once it's in bootloader mode,
then use fastboot, not adb.
"fastboot oem unlock"
Then follow instructions.
simply doing settings -> oem unlock won't unlock the bootloader, it allows you to do so later via. fastboot
Check the original post, I've added the extra instructions sorry about the confusion!
Thanks a lot. I finally succeeded to unlock the bootloader and root my phone and install the magisk.. I did without use your rom just I unlocked the bootloader and install your twrp file and after in the recovery mode i format the data and istall magic and i still have the last updated android.
I hope this it ill help to other people. Cheers

And, brother, thank you very much. Worked perfectly.
But first I would like to get you a tip ..
One of the main reasons I have done all this complicated process was to be able to disable the crap of the loud music that plays when the device is started.
I want complete silence at startup.
How do I disable this ****?

Hi guys, lemme apologize for disappearing, life and whatnot!
For those stuck in a TWRP boot loop, simply restoring the original recovery then restarting the phone will be enough to fix the problem.
(Actually you really don't need TWRP after the phone is rooted, maybe I should update the guide?)
Many Thanks
First off, thank you for your hard work. Loved the "**** it we have an OTG cable let's use it" haha. It works fine for me.
Second, do you happen to know if someone has ported Oreo on our bv9000 ? Or do you know of any ETA ?
Thanks again,
Cheers
Anyone tried on the BV9000 Pro? Don't think mine is 'F' OR 'Fhd'.... I must have first model brought out...
Ugh.. Windows and Drivers?!?!
I keep getting Driver not Recognized in Windows 7 Pro X86.
I installed the latest vcom/usb drivers, in legacy also. No Go.
I installed from several other sources the drivers, including the Automatic Mediatek driver install. No Go.
So if anyone has a tip for me, please let me know because once more Windows is proving itself ridiculous. I can't even get to the storage of my phone. Did something change with a Windows Update that it's not allowed anymore?
I put my BV9000 Pro in OEM Unlock and USB Debugging. I backupped everything. My phone is ready for it. It's as ready as Amy having coitus with Sheldon for the first time.

[Guide]Lenovo S5 K520: TWRP, Root and Decrypt data

Hello everyone, after struggling for a few hours I managed to finally disable force encryption in my phone (so that TWRP could backup the data partition).
I'd like to write a quick list of what I did in the form of a guide to unlocking the bootloader, installing TWRP and getting root with Magisk. I'm just a user, not a developer and this guide is brief, it's not a detailed tutorial and does not include trivial steps (like how to install drivers for your OS).
Warnings: Although small, there is always the chance this bricks your phone. I take no responsibilities.
This will factory reset your phone so back up everything before you start.
My phone is Lenovo S5 (K520) Global version (see screenshot) I don't know if this will work for other firmwares.
Prerequisites:
Install Phone, ADB and Fastboot drives. You can get ADB and Fastboot binaries from here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979
Download this archive:
http://www.mediafire.com/?4dcvzw1hdmzfn10
It contains all the files used in this guide.
Alternatively, download all the files used from their sources.
You will need an SD card or a USB flash drive with an OTG adapter.
Copy the following files to it:
A. "Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt_12.16.2018.zip"
(Downloaded from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3817389 )
B. "Magisk-v18.0.zip"
(Downloaded from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3473445 )
C. (optional) "\stock\boot.img"
(Downloaded from the global firmware @ 4pda)
If you chose to use Micro SD card, you can insert it now.
Note: I know there is a way to push these files directly to TWRP from PC through USB instead of using SD Card/Flash drive but I've never tried it.
Lets start:
1. Go to 'Settings>About phone' and tap on "Lenovo version" several times until developer options are enabled.
2. Go to 'Settings>System>Developer options' and enable "OEM unlocking" (Note: for me this option was greyed out and I had to connect to wifi and wait for a minute or two).
Optional: Enable "USB debugging" if you wish to enter fastboot via ADB.
3. Turn off the phone and press and hold 'Volume down'+'Power' buttons until you see "fastboot mode" on the phone screen (alternatively, don't turn off the phone and instead enter fastboot mode via ADB (adb.exe reboot bootloader)).
4. Connect the phone to the PC via USB and open a command prompt in the location that you installed fastboot binary to.
Type (after each command press enter):
Code:
fastboot devices
To verify that the phone is recognized. And if it is type:
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
Now on the phone LCD navigate to "Yes" with volume buttons and press power to select it.
Your phone will factory reset, this will take a few minutes. Let it finish.
5. Put the TWRP image in your fastboot path. I used "recovery-twrp-3.2.3-crn-seoul(v3.2.3-1).img" downloaded from this URL:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/lenovo-s5-k520-twrps-t3863860
But I included 2 more files that I found (I did not try them).
6. Enter fasboot mode again and type:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-twrp-3.2.3-crn-seoul(v3.2.3-1).img
(Substitute "recovery-twrp-3.2.3-crn-seoul(v3.2.3-1).img" with the recovery filename of you choice)
7. If successful, disconnect the USB cable and enter Recovery mode, do not turn off or reboot the phone because upon restart the phone will revert to stock recovery (I.E. delete TWRP).
To enter Recovery mode press and hold 'Volume down'+'Power' buttons until you see "fastboot mode" and from there choose "Recovery mode" with the volume buttons and confirm with the power button.
(Alternatively, you can try holding 'Volume up'+'Power' to directly enter Recovery mode but I found it a little finicky)
8. In TWRP, swipe to allow changes. Press cancel when asked for a password to decrypt data.
If you chose to use a USB flash drive with an OTG adapter, connect it and mount it (Mount>usb-otg).
9. Go to Wipe>format data, type "yes" and confirm (if you have any data like installed apps, contacts etc., it will be deleted).
10. Go to Install and install "Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt_12.16.2018.zip".
The files will be in (/external_sd/ or /usb-otg/).
11. Install "Magisk-v18.0.zip"
Important note: If you want to keep encryption (if you don't care if TWRP can't access /data/) and just obtain root, skip steps 9 and 10.
12. Reboot to system and wait for a few minutes for the initial setup.
If for some reason boot fails (nothing happens after 10 minutes) and you can still enter TWRP (hold 'Volume up'+'Power'), then you can revert the changes by restoring the stock boot image (TWRP>Install>Install image>boot.img - put a checkmark on "boot").
If this worked for you, please tell us by replying to this thread.
Thanks a lot man. This phone is a beast in quality/price when talking about hardware. Costs a bit more than 100€ and has the same hard than others at 180-200€ at least. Bad thing is software but with TWRP and root everything is possible . Just found what project treble is, amazing possibilities. Can't beliebe nobody replied yet to yor post. Its a great guide and you show all the sources from where your downloads come. As you said in another thread its better this way so people can trust your content more:

I also wanted to root but I didn't want to run a bunch of unknown programs (from XN Logos), so I managed to install TWRP and root with magisk. I wrote a guide on how to do it:

I am yet waiting for my Lenovo S5 to arrive but I will give this guide a try. I was about to follow XN logos (stupdroid) guide/software but I prefer yours. Just one question... have you checked whether the TWRP v3.2.3 (latest) from dmilz make proper working backups? Can I trust that a full backup will be loaded correctly after installing any unofficial ROM, to go back to stock if necessary? I made once the mistake of relying a TWRP and later I found out that one was ok for flashing but didn't create working backups. I asked him also the same question, but I guess you also tried yourself to make a backup and restore from it using TWRP.
Next step will be to flash an Android 8.1 or 9 GSI rom (did I already say I'm amazed by GSI/project treble roms? just found about them last days). I will update you about my luck following your guide
does anyone enable lte bands, 4 and 28?
just bought this phone, currently on shipping..
I'll first try with twrp + aosp 9 GSI
Hi man, have you upgrade to gsi

This means no rom is installed in your phone. Either you accidentally wipe system in twrp, or the rom is corrupted.
Download the deodexed stock rom below and flash with twrp. Should fix your problem.

Not working, bootloop. To fix bootloop, need to flash original boot.img - need to put original boot.img from ROM we have in adb folder and run command "fastboot flash boot boot.img".
Before posting such tutorials I suggest to check is it even working, because on chinese version of device this will NOT WORK.

When signing up for this website you sign a waiver that you are the sole person responsible for your device. Bootloops too.
Don't wanna have it bricked ? Don't mess with it.
Nobody's telling you to do that.
How about some gratitude and appreciation for those who take the time and trouble looking for a solution. Sponging off others work and whingening about it ?
Show some manners.

What time, what solution?! Method posted by OP for this device is known for weeks already... And its just copied solution from other tutorials for older Xiaomi phones... I can bet that OP even didn't check it and I won't be surprised if he even don't have this phone... Besides, I still don't have solid proof that it works, even on global/EU version of device.
in the end this tutorial is working or not on global?
