It won't work. We need unlocked bootloader. After unlocked bootloader we can root it by patched boot img

Mi9 is perfect
I like it. But a phone without sd card is not good for me.

I've got a Nokia 8.1 (TA-1119), and want to get rid of Android 11's navigation bar. But I can't seem to find a valid TWRP for my phone.
So I'm stuck before I can begin, basicly...

I had my phone on warranty one day. I totally killed it after flashing a corrupted file. So LG just brought that phone back to life and shipped it back?

Your problem seems to be the same as in the following thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-5x/help/unlock-bootloader-n5x-t3290923/page6
Its the same for me after my mainboard was replaced.
I have same situation, warranty changed my motherboard and now I can't fully unlock bootloader. But I find solution how to Root it whit out TWRP.
Thanks to this Phh's root solution.

Flashed whit fastboot
After restart install Phh's superuser app!! not chainfires superuser but Phh's. Somehow chainfires app doesn't understand su binary.
But root works whit phh's, installed busybox, root checker apps shows that root is working.
Did full backup whit Flashfire it makes full restore zip which can be used whit fastboot.
Maybe I will not sell this phone..

so flash stock rom whit fastboot whit ph's kernel, don't need stock kernel, after that download ph's app, check if root is working (needs ph's app from playstore, to check if root is working download root checker app), download busybox, set to permissive and flashfire should work, after that you can flash stock rom whit franco kernel and select in flhasfire that it needs to be rooted, after that you should have stock rom whit superuser.
For now I am using stock rom whit superuser and everything works (also otas works perfectly, even updates radio and bootloader, don't need fastboot for that)
Even twrp works but twrp works when it is written from twrp app which is in playstore :good:

Bro ur awesome! thanks u so much!
If i understand correctly, iam now downgrading my firmware? I have never done this before cuz of the fact that iam quite new to nexus5x ( used a galaxy nexus before this one). Do i have to unlock the bootloader over and over after each step? And when do i have to flash the kernel?

also had galaxy nexus :good:
about the downgrade, there isn't newer kernel from phh's website, so thats why you need to downgrade
it needs radio and bootloader from that factory zip (it should boot whit out those two) but I still prefer to flash it, so you will need to do:
fastboot unlock
fastboot flash radio radio.img
reboot the device
again:
fastboot unlock
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
reboot the device
and for last time
fastboot unlock
and flash all the files, don't need to reboot every time, type one command at the line
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash cache cache.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
fastboot flash system system.img
oh and don't forget vendor!: fastboot flash vendor vendor.img
and kernel from ph:
fastboot flash boot boot-bullhead-NRD90S-su-nocrypt-r265.img
finally boot to the system :good: I guess you should know how to use fastboot, if not google it

Root without custom recovery?

Is it possible to unlock the bootloader and flash via adb magisk in order to root the phone but still able to mentain the oem recovery so i can flash the updates that are coming more easily?
if u r rooted u cannot flash OTA's, so no u can't
Yes it's possible, however when you install the update you will lose root and have to root it all over again.

I'm new to Oneplus, but Flashfire has worked for me when twrp cannot be installed.

You don't use adb... Patch the boot image with the Magisk Manager and then flash it with fastboot. There are instructions for it in the Magisk release thread.
When updating the OS you'll have to do it again.
In my opinion, the only reason to do it this way is if you've got limited bandwidth and can't download the full OTA zips. Using the full zip is way, way easier... Just download the full OTA file, flash in TWRP and then flash the Magisk zip right after. Done. You don't need a computer at all...

Latest Magisk Canary builds can root EMUI9

From the man himself.
Seems as though it's only a matter of time now.

Or boot into twrp and adb sideload magisk-release.zip.
I'll try later.

It works fine, my P20 whith Pie UMUI9 is rooted.

To have root working, at each start, you have to Boot your phone with holding vol-up button.

I don't know.
With this method, you need to patch a recovery_ramdisk image to boot the system with root access
And then, you can't access to twrp anymore with patched image (but anyway, for me, this twrp version does not work anymore with EMUI9 ! => touch screen doesn't work).

Yes!

I suggest that you first read about magisk. And especially how to use it.
When you root your device many things can go wrong and your device can end up bricked.
Problem
So did this on my p20 and all worked well untill some module is causing the phone not to boot. I can boot without magisk but there is no way now to disable the faulty module. even reflashed the modified recovery boot image and the modules are still stuck. Any idea where i can delete all the modules?

OnePlus 7t root HD1900

Hallo Friends I am currently outside of domains and need root privileges. I have a OnePlus 7t model Hd1900 The phone is on the latest software, has an unlocked bootloader and the uploaded twrp only lacks root permissions The latest Magisk 23 is also installed And now I do not know if it is enough to upload the magisk zip package via twrp Can I do it through the magisk application ? And what to make copies in case of a problem with starting the phone so that it does not have to delete everything ? Thank you all for your help

Just flash magisk.apk in twrp (if it won't flash then your TWRP is too old--rename magisk to zip instead of apk)
