Flashing back to stock Recovery. Help! - Honor 7X Questions & Answers

I'm having trouble getting stock recovery to flash using Fastboot. I've followed the correct method but continue getting an error. Bootloader is unlocked and I am rooted. OEM unlocking is checked in Dev options and so is USB debugging. What is the deal?

Not sure but try typing recovery ramdisk without caps.

That's how the file is named in the folder. I've tried renaming it and no matter how I do it, same results.

That's okay that's the files name but why are you typing the word "recovery_ramdisk" as RECOVERY_RAMDISK

Typing it that way because that's how the file is named. All caps. Even if I change it to no capital letters it still does it.

Are you in nougat or oreo?

I was on O but I resolved it. It was as the all caps causing the issue. I was typing exactly as the file was named but I guess it didn't like the all caps

I got this second hand phone which is honor 7x
And I want to update it to the latest sowtfare but twrp was installed on this phone..
How to get over it??
I'm not familiar on how to and that...
All I want is to have a good performance on my phone
(It's a CHINA ROM) VERSION
I'm currently on android version 7.0 nougat
Emui 5.1
And my question is would it lock my network carrier from where I'm from currently in???

I was fiddling around now for two full days with my 7X. Trying to root the phone which has been upgraded to 9.1.0.162 is a mess. Finally back to stock but still unsatisfied.
There are several lessons learned and findings from those two days:
- Huawei has renamed the partitions from "recovery"/"recovery2" to "recovery_ramdisk"/""erecovery_ramdisk"
- unlocking the bootloader does only let you flash recovery_ramdisk
- if you boot into recovery (Pwr & Vol+), the image from erecovery_ramdisk gets loaded
- To boot into recovery you are able to flash, it requires three buttons to be pressed (Pwr & Vol+ & Vol-)
- To flash erecovery_ramdisk, you have to flash TWRP into recovery_ramdisk and from there you can install an image into erecovery_ramdisk.
Be aware! To go back to stock, do NOT use methods that flash kernel.img from older versions. Since boot.img and kernel.img are related, there might be a great chance to brick the phone.
Lessons learned: Huawei tries to avoid rooting the phone. Since I bought the phone (it is mine!) I am the one who decides what to do with it. Even thought the hardware is still good, I'm done with this messy firmware handling. So now it is time for new hardware from a different company. For the time being I will use it unrooted and accept ads in my news readers, but it will only be a matter of time.

Stuck in fastboot. No recovery... no bueno :(

So I had my ze551ml / Z00A rooted, was loving life, all was great. Then I tried getting XPosed access and didn't read up on it prior. Anyways, now my phone is stuck in fastboot, I'm able to flash partitions and all, including recovery partition, yet I cannot enter any mode but the hung ASUS logo, or fastboot. I weas even able to load CM's "upgrade to MM bootloader" package, but still the same thing only with green letters where they once were blue..... Please help, I need my beloved phone back.....
I'm not a pro but if you can access fastboot it is just a soft brick and I'm sure many people can point you on the right thread to recover it.
I've scoured the depths of both XDA and the ASUS forums, and while I've gained much knowledge of how I can possibly fix it, nothing seems to work. I go to select "recovery mode" and it instantly just boots right back in to fastboot.....

Thanks -- you can install giovix`s modder tool from general section
Set it up , use`return to stock option` --in that option , first select boot , then after- recovery(both will be stock)
You then can either
A- Reboot to stock recovery ,adb Sideload stock M -- Follow on to B-( to back-up stock before flashing)
B- Unlock bootloader again , flash twrp and root (if twrp version in modder is now 3.0.3.M4 you can flash lineageos)
---------------------------------------------------------------(if twrp version in modder is still 3.0.2.1 M - you will have to flash 303M4 in fastboot or in 3021M twrp.
1) You might be able to, fastboot flash 3.0.3.M4 immediately and forget above A&B completely
For 303M4 recovery see lineageOS in original android development section OP for download link

So I've yet to try your solution, but I do have an update, I was able to, one by one, flash all the stock files (stock as in the stuff I downloaded from asus site) and was almost able to boot to recovery, but when I got to the red triangle android, I couldn't get it to go further. I've heardf alternate key combos for proceeding from there, and tried them all, but maybe I'm just an idiot...... I'll try the giovix solution when I've got time (patience).
**when I tried flashing the cm upgrade package after that, it went back to square 1, so I gave up for the evening.**

Here's the thing. I'm super stubborn, and I think I know everything (cuz I do....) so of course I decided that I could figure something out, so I tried my way first............ didn't pan out.... anyway, I'm finding any time I flash a TWRP file, I have no access to recovery mode. Regardless if I do it manually through fastboot, or CM upgrade/downgrade or even the giovix fix (yes I tried it). My question is this, Where is there a return to stock option? of the giovix DLs I could find, I see a 'magisk root' 'TWRP' 'bootloader unlocker' and 'Xposed' tools, nothing else.... Am I missing something? or am I just skimming over that part?
I do appreciate all the help, seriously. Even if it seems like I'm not taking suggestions very well. It's moreso I don't have access to a computer most of the day, and it's not a huge priority since I went and bought a zfone 3 max a few days ago (decent phone for what it is....crazy battery life)
https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/general/tool-ze551mlmodder-t3458145
Functions:
1- Check connection status
2- Bootloader Unlocker
3- Flash TWRP 3.0.2-0 M1
4- Full-auto xposed flasher!
5- Full-auto root flasher!
5B- Full-auto root (Magisk+Phh's) compatible with 184!
6- ADB Shell
7- Return back to stock
8- Erase /system, /data and /cache for a clean upgrade
9 (HIDE)- Auto-reboot to bootloader
10- More functions inside!
well then forgive me for not downloading the correct option. I nowhere see this list among anything I downloaded, so maybe specify which is which ('full' or 'auto')....... I'm already downloading both of them again, because I'm not sure which I already had. But yea, one of the 2 only has the 4 options I mentioned.

So i finally see what you've been trying to tell me, and I returned everything back to stock, but I still have the same problem, recovery now loads but system wont boot up. I'll try loading the individual factory IMG files today, via fastboot, or should I use a zip file from Asus via recovery?

In stock recovery - choose update from adb -- adb sideload cmd is >
adb sideload MOFD_SDUPDATE.zip
Put .134 M asus firmware in adb/fastboot folder first rename it to MOFD_SDUPDATE(without zip) before this cmd above and then open up adb and type it in and hit enter.
Just in case you are trying different methods (see if this works )

I'll try it today. Last I checked it was hanging at the ”! Android” screen. But then again I'm not sure I know the combo to get passed that screen, I know it's either power and + or power and - but my only success I got into by button mashing all three keys rapidly, so, yea, I know, I'm am idiot.

EDIT"""" because i got it wrong too , i dont even think about , i just do it
It`s ->
From powered off position
Press Power and Vol +
at two vibes, release power
at boot up screen ,release vol+
in bootloader ,scroll vol up or down to and then select(press power) at recovery selection.
At dead android guy -> press vol + and power for 4 seconds -> release Vol +
You should be in recovery.
i am replying in this post since i have a similar problem, and I am as stubborn as OP. Me posting here is a big step in acknowledging my defeat at last. Hours of digging through the internet didn't solve my problem
I have changed my ifwi and dnx more times than i can remember. (my clean slate is mostly using xFSTK downloader with xFSTK_ZE551ML-sal358-amtech.vn files)
Using the above mentioned method (giovix`s modder tool) to go back to stock i still boot into fastboot, not recovery mode.
trying to unlock bootloader it says on the phone "unlock fail"
Using asus flash tool with raw files i get "gpt command failed"
Using a manual method i get the "gpt command failed" on the "6. fastboot oem partition /tmp/partition.tbl" step
in my opinion as soon as i get some kind of recovery my problems are solved. But have been working four hours on this problem with all possible solutions i could think of, nothing but frustration.
info: current ifwi 0094.0183 (wich should be M)
serial 01234........EF
and using the toolkit on "https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/general/bl-unlock-ze551ml-toolkit-t3546293" i found out my device firmware version is 198 (wich is probably not good in combo with the ifwi)
little update in a certain config (android 5 / ifwi 0094.177 / stock recovery) i can boot up untill the dead android icon, but with whatever key combo can't get past it... (vol up + power) / (vol down + power)
fastboot flash boot recovery.img (yep i am really desperate to get into recovery) doesn't even give me the dead android.
thank you beforehand!
Last paragraph with android 5 ifwi 0094.0177
Is your serial correct ?
Press vol + once is it correct?, if not you will have to xfstk first again and flash raw (twice) with temp bootloader 0094.1069
See my unbrick video for help
First of all, thank you very much for your reply!
I was not very specific there, the android 5 is not the rom (still wasnt able to flash the rom) its only the files like droidboot, ifwi, dnx, .... that i got form lolipop.
Indeed the serial is still 1234........EF (so not the correct one)
I do understand i have to flash the raw twice to get the correct serial, but flashing raw doesn't work. I get "gpt command failed" every time. (so the point where i have to restart flashtool is not even reached). Also if i try to do it manualy.
I watched your video (thanks it was my first steps into understanding how it all worked) but unfortunatly didn't work for me.
Any other ideas?

Did you get this device in this condition ?
If not, what happened so that you lost serial ?
Anyway , i have never tried this because i have ALWAYS succeeded flashing raw (twice) to correct serial BUT it may work for you.( i am not sure you have a device that can have the serial corrected due to whether its been tampered with previous ) which affects recovery and IMEI.
Usually , xFSTK is used to install temp bootloader - Its supposed to be the lowest level form of unbricking procedure and restores temp bootloader so you can fastboot after-- flashing raw in fastboot via AFT(twice) restores serial -- 1st flash approx 3mins is with incorrect serial and temp bootloader.
After a couple of mins, cmds on phone pauses on RESULT=OK on phone.
You close AFT and open AFT again , input raw and set AFT up -- press Vol+ on phone -> once, serial will be corrected and 2nd flash can be started and left until it boots into android 5 by itself.
If GPT trouble , that link may help.
There is other programmes for starting to create serial and restoring .
Usually people who use these , have to dig deep into buildprop stuff which if tampered with can end up with problem such that you have.
Good luck
see if anything here helps

Moto G7 Play XT1952-4 Recovery

Hello, does anybody know when a recovery for the moto G7 play XT1952-4 might be released? I am eager to root my new phone.
I am also looking for the recovery of Moto G7 Play, I unlocked my BootlLoader to make Root and I do not think any Recovery
You don't need TWRP to root the phone. As long as the bootloader is unlocked, you can root with Magisk. Select the Link To Installation Instructions and follow the Boot Image Patching section. It requires using ABD commands, and although it looks/seems complicated, it is actually very easy. Plus, you will have learned something as well as root your phone.
If the G7 Play is actually code-named "Channel", then this link will give you stock firmware for you to download and extract the stock boot image.
Magisk boot.img
Ok I got the retail Canada ROM. Now I am going to extract boot img and patch it with Magisk manager. Once patched I am going to flash it to my phone using abd fastboot? At this point it will be rooted or do I use SuperSU to root? Under software channel on my phone it says "Bell" but the build number and model number matched up. XT1952-4 PPY29. 105-57 so it should be good hopefully.
Thanks
Error: cannot open 'magisk_patched.img'
Must be wrong Rom. Everything worked fine until I had to flash it. I put patched IMG right in adb directory and opened a command window from there but when I tried to flash it I got the error cannot open file. Oh well I think I will wait for a recovery it's the easy way for me.
Thanks
Code named 'channel'
There are 2 more versions of it in the list you provided. Not sure what the abbreviations are before CA for Canada but I will try them too. If I get the same error when flashing these patched boot.imgs I will have to wait for a recovery. Hopefully it won't by be too much longer. I just hope there will be a recovery.
Thanks
Continued error when flashing patched files.
I have tried 3 boot images from 3 different retail Canada firmwares. All 3 patched alright by magisk manager but when I try to fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img I get the same error cannot open file. I must be doing something wrong. My phone's bootloader is unlocked so unless someone has a solution. I will definitely have to wait for a recovery. Hopefully soon!.
Thanks
Dumb question...when you are attempting to flash your patched boot image, is your phone in fastboot mode? Also, you may be able to extract your boot image via ADB. It's been a while since I've done it and am having trouble finding the proper commands, but you can try this:
adb pull /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/boot stockboot.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It may or may not work. I hope it does but apologize if it does not.
Furthermore, you will likely have to wait quite a while for a custom recovery (TWRP). The G7 play has A/B partitions, which makes ROM building and recoveries very difficult. There is no separate "recovery" partition with A/B...the recovery is combined within the boot image. FYI - I have a Xiaomi A2 Lite that has A/B partitions. We still don't have a 100% working TWRP after 9 months. Custom ROMs have just been coming out slowly. I was able to root with Magisk using ABD commands though.
This link might provide clearer steps for installing Magisk.
Best of luck!
Yes, it was in fastboot mode. I will keep trying with your new intructions. Thanks for your help.
My mistake
I did not even have adb fastboot installed I was opening a command window out of the folder that was left over from uninstallation. I am about to try it again. It should work now. Stay tuned.
So far
Okay, so I installed adb fastboot and flashed the patched boot file from the RETCA firmware. I got this message " failed (boot a)" . So I tried the flashing the 2nd patched boot file that was from I think BWACA firmware. With this flash I got " not signed or corrupt" then the phone failed to start with bootloader log to confirm.
So I took the original unpatched boot.img from RETCA and flashed it. This fixed the phone so it would start fine making me believe that it's the right boot image but maybe the other firmware boot.img would have fixed the failing to start issue as well. So I think I need to pull the boot.img from the phone itself like you suggested. I am going to read some more and continue. I will figure it out. Any suggestions would be of great value.
Thanks.
Getting Closer
I realized that the magisk zip file that magisk manager downloaded did not get unzipped so that it could patch the boot.img properly. Fixed that. Flashed the boot.img and it said "okay" but said "(bootloader) image signed with key bad key" so I think I will have to pull the boot.img from the phone itself. So I am about to read up on that then I should be able to flash successfully for root access.
Thanks

A few posts back you said you flashed the stock RETCA boot image. If that's the case, then if you successfully pull the boot image from the phone, you are simply pulling the RETCA boot image you already flashed. It seems that the RETCA boot image is the correct one for you phone. I would start completely from scratch with that. To verify which build number you have, go to Settings>About Phone or ( Settings > About Phone > Software channel) and scroll down to Build Number. Match it up to one from link with all the firmware images.
The only other thing I can say is that you should read and completely understand what to do prior to doing it. I am sorry you are having difficulties with this. It really should not be so hard. As I don't have the phone I cannot be of much more assistance. However, once you figure it out, perhaps you can write a quick guide to help others.
EDIT: You should be rooted. SEE POSTS 10-13. Did you check for root?
EDIT 2: I'm assuming that since you unlocked the bootloader, when you reboot the phone the screen goes black and says "Bad Key", correct? That is normal for Moto phones.
2nd, after you root, when you reboot the phone, the screen should go black and say "N/A". Again that is normal for Moto phones.
I understand what you are saying I would also expect the N/A on the black screen that's when I knew I successfully rooted my old phone. I must have the right boot image if flashing it fixed the startup failure. I am going to start all over again and see.
Have to give up.
Tried and tried it's just not going to work. I think it's the patching because the boot file starts out as 32mb and only 18mb after being patched. Flashing has no effect on my phone even though it says 'okay' when I flash. I never get the N/A on boot unless there is a startup failure. Oh well have to live with ads among other anoyyances. My Moto g4 play is rooted I can use than in case a solution comes up. Thanks for all your help.

DNS66 is your friend! I have used it on other unrooted phones. It was decent from what I remember. Good luck!
Sorry that root wasn't working.
EDIT - If you are up for a little more testing...I just found this. I don't remember if it's what I had to do for my Xiaomi or not, but it makes sense. (Further research - No I did not have to do this). Scroll down to method #2 and look for the part about A/B partitions:
fastboot flash boot_a patched_boot.img
fastboot flash boot_b patched_boot.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Edit #2 - I don't give up easily LOL
After any of your attempts to flash the patched_boot image, did you ever boot the phone and open the Magisk Manager app? Doing so should ask to install Magisk, if not you must tap on the "Install" button. Then choose "Install" > "Direct Install (Recommended)" to install Magisk on the phone, and reboot when finished.
Neither do I
I have been trying everything since we last talked. Just so you know the link labelled as "this" in your last response is not working. I always opened the magisk app after flashing to see if it was either installed or gave me the option to do a direct install unfortunately, it did not. I have magisk manager installed on my rooted Moto G4 plus and it gives me that option to do a direct install. Will definitely try your new info. Thanks so much for more help. I will let you know.
Still no luck
Without the link I got the jist of what you were saying by the quote boot_a boot_b I tried both consequtively and then tried it for ever possible retail Canada image still no luck. Thanks for your help. I don't know why it's so hard for this phone. I will keep researching.
I'm at about the same place where jwreidmoto is. I purchased my unlocked g7play from Best Buy. First I tried the files in the channel/RETUS folder, these all caused a bootloop. I then tried in the RETAIL folder... still no joy. None of the version numbers quite matched up, and none worked to restore the phone. I finally found a matching file in the AMZ folder, which I was able to use to get the phone to boot up again. So I used that boot.img file with magisk and when I flashed, it gave no errors, no indication anything failed. Unfortunately though, I do not have root access. I started over from scratch and did the process over with the AMZ boot img again, and again no errors, but no root. I've never rooted before, so I don't know if there's another part somewhere I missed, but I do feel like I was able to follow the directions on the g7 thread by mingkee, and performed the steps accurately. I supposed it's just the wrong boot img. The about phone says the software channel is US Retail, and the build number is PPY29.105-36. The RETUS folder only has PPY29.105-43 and RETAIL folder has five different zip files, but none were PPY29.105-36.
You are doing it right
You have not missed any steps. If the boot.img fixed the boot loop then it should be the right one. I had the same issue with a startup failure and fixed it with the RETCA boot.img so I am also using the right one also. I think it's an issue with the model of phone, this method just does not work. We might have to wait a while until someone comes up with a solutuon. I know it sucks.

this will be my last onepluse thatr for sure going back to Pixel 4 XL didnt have no issues going back to stock this is crazy
I'm having the same issue, so I'm gonna piggyback this in hopes of a different direction.. Long story, short, I've spent hours trying to get back to OOS from crdroid 11. the link above got me back to booting up t-mobile and relocks the bootloader, but wifi radio doesnt work & restarting brings me to being stuck on the boot logo. none of the other MSMtools work, unlocked or TMO from the unbrick page.
what step am i missing after going through the tmo to int. guide? since that's the only thing that's working.. thanks in advance, i'm attempting round 2 in the meantime.
When u r stuck on pink TMobile screen, force reboot to bootloader by holding vol+, vol-, & power buttons for 10 sec. Once you see phone rebooting, let go of power button only to enter bootloader mode. Then type "fastboot reboot fastboot" on PC while USBC cable is plugged into phone. This will kick phone into fastbootD mode. Then fastboot flash all stock rom files.
When wifi and 4g not working, u did not enter fastbootD mode, so system did not flash right

I'm having the same issue, so I'm gonna piggyback this in hopes of a different direction.. Long story, short, I've spent hours trying to get back to OOS from crdroid 11. the link above got me back to booting up t-mobile and relocks the bootloader, but wifi radio doesnt work & restarting brings me to being stuck on the boot logo. none of the other MSMtools work, unlocked or TMO from the unbrick page.
what step am i missing after going through the tmo to int. guide? since that's the only thing that's working.. thanks in advance, i'm attempting round 2 in the meantime.

this would not work for me im assuming bc i have the global HD1905 not the T Mobile branded. u can read above why it wouldn't work . but i seem to have made some progress using the All in One Tool i clicked on flash factory image tab and at first it keep error out saying no Flash-All.bat found after unzipping it. so i kelp looking around and finally foud a factory zip that had the Flash-All.bat file in it so tried again using the Allin One Tool clicked Flash Factory image and it unzipped it and flashed fine but now i cant boot to the OOS it just reboots to the " your bootloader is unlocked integrity screen and stays . but i can boot in fastboot mode and recovery which is now factory recovery. i noticed that it flashed the OOS zip on slot A so i think the reason its not booting up to OOS is bc i need it flased on both slots ??

using the " All in One Tool "
Flashing is not allowed for Critical Partitions
is this normal error when flashing back to stock OOS ? when the flashing starts it says this for the first 4 or 5 flashing parts then it stats flashing as described in OP. then it reboots out of fastboot and boots to stock recovery then it finishes the flashing . then at the end it says to press any key to continue and the phone reboots and hangs at the screen that lets me know the bootloader is unlock screen. i flashed both a \b partitions and still does the same thing. its like the boot image is not flashing or im missing something else in the OP to get back to stock OOS.
anyone can help me please ?
"Fastboot reboot fastboot" will enter fastbootD mode to allow flashing system parts

ok that command worked it successfully Flashed all partitions and when it it it finished it said to press any key to continue .... i did and it rebooted into stock recovery and finished the flashing . then it reboots to the Your Bootloader is unlocked warning and stays there . so i went into recovery and factory reset everything and still hangs at the bootloder unlocked warningthat was all on Slot b so i was like maybe i need to flash both Slots so i switched to slot a active and repeated the whole process above and still nothing hangs again at the bootloader is unlocked warning... ggggrrrrr
what gives..... this is all done using the All in One Tool ... i know im getting close to getting it back to Stock OOS as i made progress with your help.
i then downloaded the factory image from OnePlus site but that was a no go as the zip had only something called Payload which wouldn't flash ..
anymore knowledge u might can share and thank you very much for your help
Go back to fastbootD and flash-all parts manually on A slot, then go to bootloader, type "fastboot set_active other" to go into B slot and repeat fastbootD flashing all parts again. Then go into stock recovery to format data and then reboot

again thank you.

Question [Solved] root problems

So I updated my phone to Android 13, after I updated my phone I needed to regain root perms, so I flashed a patched magisk boot.img file, it went wrong here.
so now(after) I am unable to start my pixel 6 pro, all I get is "Your device is corrupted it cannot be trusted and may not work properly", + the bootloader is unlocked message.
and whenever I start the phone it either shows a battery icon(as in it has no battery? idk it was on 20%) or the colorful "Google" logo, no it doesn't show the colored "G"/doesn't get to that point(as in it's stuck).
I cannot get the phone to show up in "adb devices" it has worked before.
I very much need help, I went throughout all of YouTube and Google(search) and found nothing.
Any idea?

You must have flashed the boot.img that someone else uploaded from their phone? I did the same yesterday with the same result.
Fix....Use Android flash tool to flash the Aug update;
*****MAKE SURE TO UNCHECK lock bootloader, wipe device, force flash partitions. after it is finished.... copy boot.img to your phone and patch it with magisk. Then copy the magisk patched boot.img back to your PC and then flash your patched boot.img to both slots using Platform Tools CMD Good Luck
Okay I manage to get it into Fastboot, thank you very much both! much appreciate the help and your time!

Diff question:
I tried to(tmp) boot with the patched magisk boot.img but it doesn't seem to be willing to boot with it. how did you manage to get it to boot with the patched boot.img? is it any different than the normal android 12?
-- edit: I use my own patched files, that are not "made" by others. using the android 13 image file
I always download the full zip in order to get the boot.img for the zip, then I use Android Flash Tool to download and flash the full zip update. Let the phone reboot unrooted. If you have the magisk patched boot.img from your phone, copy it to your PC and use Platform tools to flash it to both slots using the CMD prompt.
Open a Command Prompt in the folder you copied the patched boot.img to.
Flash the boot.img (Magisk Patched) to both slots: fastboot flash boot <drag and drop boot.img> --slot all

Before you do any more modding, have you flashed the A13 bootloader to both slots so you don't get in trouble with the new ARB? If not, I suggest you do so before you do anything.
If you have, never mind, lol...
I've used the android flash tool, now shows that the phone is corrupt, Android Recovery -- cannot load Android system Your data may be corrupt. If you continue to get this message...
Try again or Factory data reset.
13.0.0 (TP1A.220624.021, Aug 2022)
Yes I got in trouble with the ARB
I don't really understand on how this works, I just follow a YouTube tutorial. not that i'm new(to rooting, been doing this from March~) but that just I don't understand on how android works, especially if a13 is different than a12
The tutorial I've used :
Spoiler
I'll try to recover the phone will see how it'll go, and if i won't manage i'll reset the device, I backed up via Google one.. i'm less worried -- data reset. was unable to recover

Fixed it.
so a little back story, at a random point in my day the phone(p6p) said restart to apply update, and I was rooted at the time and thought it would failed, and I went for it. it did manage to install(2nd "July" august update). then I saw a vid about A13 and thought I might aswell try to install A13 on my phone, I opted in the beta and downloaded A13, took a little bit but I manage to install it aswell.
I think this was the problem. I don't know as to how, but maybe magisk or some module manage to make the device itself think it's not rooted.. albeit it shows that the bootloader is indeed unlocked.
Needless to say, I managed to fix the problem, gained root perms again. thanks for the help and your time! much appreciated

Opting into the Beta wasn't necessary before manually downloading Android 13 - if that's what you meant.
Now that you've opted into the Beta program, you should unopt out of it, otherwise you will continue to get beta versions of Android as opposed to stable.

Question Soft brick no backup

Hi all!
Long story short, I beefed it...
I tried flashing the unofficial twrp and accidentally did format all on spflashtool.
I'm two months in and for the life of me I can't fix my phone... I've even tried to learn how to write a custom OS myself to fix it but I'm definitely not smart enough.
So, here's where I'm at right now:
When I flash the engineering ROM, the phone boots normally and all that seems to work, but flashing the official MIUI causes a bootloop to the stock recovery.
In there, there's the message "NV data is corrupted".
I'm 2 months in now, so I've seen almost all google pages, so yes, I've tried flashing using the official tool, flashed vbmeta with --disable-verity and --disable-verification.
It's my phone and I have the box here, so I have both IMEI numbers which I managed to flash in the engineering ROM, but flashing the normal MIUI somehow deletes the IMEI numbers again.
I can get into fastboot so the bootloader is unlocked, but I can't boot into the system so I can't enable dev options.
please, if you can help I'm more than happy to answer any other questions and being called an idiot :')
help me, XDA, you're my only hope

You have to download the firmware and paste it into the platform tools folder and click flash all.bat
