My complete bootloader unlock and root guide. - Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion

So I just got this phone just for fun, it was 75 USD, and went straight to XDA to root it so i can remove some bloat etc. but holy moly i ended up have 10 tabs with different guides open, i have compiled what I did to get this phone rooted.
I want to thank everyone who made different threads about rooting and installing Magisk on this phone, i have read so many guides now so i cant remember their names!.
BUT THANK YOU!.
Let's get to it
Here is what I did for to unlock the bootloader, install magisk and root my Huawei P20 Lite ANE-LX1
First you need to install HiSuite: https://consumer.huawei.com/minisite/HiSuite_en/
and then install ADB and Fastboot drivers: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip
(extract the platform-tools folder to the root of your C: drive)
Plug in your phone and let it install drivers.
Then you need to downgrade your firmware to 146 using Dload method, as DCU Client can't read the bootloader unlock code on newer firmwares.
I used "Huawei P20 Lite ANE-L21 Anne-L21 8.0.0.146(C432) Firmware Android 8.0.0 EMUI 8.0.0 05014YXX androidhost.ru.zip" (https://androidhost.ru/6ti)
When finished downloading, open the zip file, open software and copy the folder "Dload" to the root of your EXTERNAL SD CARD, not internal storage!.
Now take your phone and "dial" *#*#2846579#*#* go to Software Upgrade -> SdCard Upgrade and click OK.
Your phone should now begin installing the old firmware, when the phone first boots up, dont set it up, turn it off and hold Volume up + Power and select Wipe Data/Factory Reset, Wipe Cache, and then reboot.
With the phone booted, enable USB Debugging (Settings > System > About Phone > version number > Tap it 7 times to become developer, AND click OEM-Unlock, then go to Settings > System > Developer Options > USB Debugging).
Now we need to buy 4 credits from DC-Unlocker (4 Euro) ( https://www.dc-unlocker.com/buy ) when you have 4 credits on your account, go and download https://hcu-client.com/download/hcu-client-v1-0-0-0287/ Password: hcu
extract the contents of the zip to a folder called HCU in the root of your C: drive
Open up HCU.exe, type in your username and password (check your mail, the info will be there).
Grab your phone and dial *#*#2846579#*#*, go to Background Settings -> USB Port Settings -> Manufacture Mode and press close.
Plug in your phone and let it install drivers.
Open up HCU client, select Unlock, and then Read Bootloader Code.
when you have the code, save it!
Turn off your phone
Hold volume down and power, now we are in fastboot mode.
Open CMD and write:
CD C:\platform-tools
fastboot oem unlock YOUR UNLOCK KEY HERE
Accept the stuff and unlock your bootloader, your phone will be factory reset, and all your data lost if you dont have a backup.
Turn the phone off and on again, set it up, and go to settings -> System -> System update, and update, mine was ANE-LX1 8.0.0.162(C432)
Now re-enable USB Debugging option in Developer Options.
install Magisk Manager (https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/download/v18.0/Magisk-v18.0.zip)
Download patched_ramdisk.img (https://mega.nz/#!GWp1ia6R!xUcg_T_17v1ktlFQPq-Ujo4DRKfAg8E4-_k2J2zLO60)
and place it in the root of your phones internal storage
Open up Magisk Manager, press install -> install -> Patch Boot Image File -> find the patched_ramdisk.img and click OK.
Now open CMD and write:
CD C:\platform-tools>
adb pull /storage/emulated/0/download/patched_boot.img
Now you should have the patched_boot.img in your platform tools folder.
Turn off your phone, hold volume down and power to get to fastboot mode.
in CMD write:
CD C:\platform-tools>
fastboot flash ramdisk patched_boot.img
reboot your phone and check if magisk was installed correctly and check if you have root.
Hope this works for you!

Great guide. Just a tip instead of using cd C:\platform-tools you can shift+right click on the adb folder and click "open powershell here". Saves some time

Thank you for this, but I have a question about this part:
Then you need to downgrade your firmware to 146 using Dload method, as DCU Client can't read the bootloader unlock code on newer firmwares.

Mine is ANE-LX3, what would be the equivalent to 146 so that DC-unlocker can read it?

Yes, you just need to find a firmware for LX3, i dont think flashing a 64gb firmware on a 32gb device is smart.

Maybe you already know but I learned that you can just clic the address bar in a Windo(w)s system and write 'cmd' which is exactly the same as 'open a command prompt that starts in this very specific folder'.
E.g. in attachments.
Now I just want to know what firmware to downgrade to :/

Sweet thanks!.
Try and use this firmware:.

Using that as a reference I found one for my region I think (C69) that says:
Integrates Google security patches released in Apr 2018 for improved system security.

Is this April FullOTA a safe security patch to work with DC-u?
ANE-LX3C69CUSTC69
An another one big question: I am in the believe that my P20 lite is Single-SIM. Does it matter if that FullOTA (or any ROM/Update.app/etc) says DUAL-SIM? Should I look for the oldest Single-SIM??? or a Dual-SIM file would work just fine?

If its single sim, you need a single sim firmware and just use a firmware under 150, you should be okay

Would someone like to pay for me cuz I don't got a way to pay i don't have any credit cards..i know this is stupid but im just a teenager and my parents wouldn't pay for it so here i am lol

Bro your instructions are super perfect tuttorial very very BIG thankx

You first flash 146 firmware with Service menu.
Then unlock bootloader
Then update via the settings menu

thank you very much for your guide, brugernavn.:good:
I arrived without problems at the point: "Turn the phone off and on again, set it up, and go to settings -> System -> System update, and update, mine was ANE-LX1 8.0.0.162(C432)"
but the phone can not find updates ... (i before was in 150) but this isn't a problem.
My doubt is on how to install Magisk Manager (https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/...gisk-v18.0.zip) .... with TWRP ?
Thank you again

Prevent installation (Redmi Note 5 AI Global)

Hi folks,
I got my RN5 AI Global a couple of days ago and I want to give Lineage OS a spin. Then I read about this dreaded feature of Google called "ARB" - a developer's nightmare!
My current version is 9.5.17 on my phone. When I change into settings I can see that 9.5.19 has been downloaded and is ready for installation, the only action I have to do is reboot. Since 9.5.19 carries ARB feature, I do not power down my phone in order not to install this fix.
So guys, here is my question: Is there any way I can prevent this update from installing on my phone?
Best wishes,
DFahren
Don't install it?
Just power down and go straight to fastboot (power+voldown) then use mi unlock to unlock then flash lineage after doing twrp.
Not that it would matter too much having 9.5.19 since you can bypass it blocking fastboot commands with the arbypass.img file
Nice idea. However my Mi account is not (yet) eligible for unlocking .... This will take 14 days, I suppose.
Delete the update from internal storage/downloaded_rom
And also turn off automatic updates so you don't get it again.
"If you are on MIUI 9, then:
- Go to Settings
- About Phone
- System Updates
- Click on 3 dots above right
- Turn Off both "Download Automatically" and "Download using Mobile Data"."
And you should be able to reboot your device.
Ok, what you are basically saying is: open a CMD on Windows, issue an "adb shell" and in this shell do a "cd xxx/storage/downloaded_rom; rm *", right?!
I have to do this because I do not see this folder downloaded_rom when using MIUI's filemanager. Correct?
Cheers, Dfahren

Maybe try a different file manager than stock.
Someone else reported on another forum that they deleted the downloaded update.
Not sure how exactly, I will message them and find out how.

Yeah, that's also a good way to get rid of the update.
I used ADB with installed drivers. However path to the update was ..../sdcard/downloaded_rom , but that's a minor. Just wanted to let you guys know.

Just fixed mine by doing the bootloader unlock and root steps above,
setup the phone without Google but with debug mode enabled,
flash twrp,
format data (the one that makes you type yes),
setup the phone with Google and debug mode, then
reflash the firmware with Odin (stock BL, magisk_patched AP, stock CP, and HOME_CSC).
Now I have 108gb storage with root! I just have to hold volume up+power button every time I boot, though.

read carefully every step bro. after flashing magisk patched then setup phone from beginning without setup google acount just skip, then check again by activating developer menu & usb debugging on. at the end reset from about menu..then phone's should reboot, after that install magisk manager then follow until finished process. & now after reboot u already got rooted beloved phone . congrats

Only the latest version from blackbuga, and yes, I can't access my internal storage through USB when in twrp. It doesn't bother me that much, because I only needed twrp to format the data so the storage goes back to 108gb from 32gb. Everything's been running fine so far.

but why u need twrp just for get normal storage.. while my storage going fine without twrp & i just try reset in finalizing process then install magisk at the end & everything looks good.
right now I'm just curious why there's no more dev interest in working on custom recovery & roms which is in other hand there's plenty developer working on galaxy s series with snapdragon soc with great support for official/unofficial builds whether twrp or cust roms. so sad considering the device is quite a potential to be developed

I just followed op's instructions in his A70 topic lol I get you. I came from iOS and I was really excited when I got the phone, but after seeing the development scene... I don't know, maybe it just has something to do with the phone's price being expensive and all that.

yeah it's possible for sensitive pricing from first launching. in my country first launching price going around $705 then after few month until approaching new device release info to be released in February. on new years then the price going down until just left $549,50 then i decided to bought it :victory:
maybe many people's thinking like me, wait & see before grab this phone's :laugh:

Actually, the truth is something else and the price range is not relevant at all.
If you have A series, it is low price range of Sammy phones and if you owned previously Iphone, you jumped "from horse to donkey".
Here you can find android ultra expensive devices successfuly rooted and in everyday ongoing development.
As pricey device is, more support you have ( All S,S+ and Note series, for example).
I have very expensive Galaxy Fold device...successfully rooted with regulary ongoing development, therefore, price is not relevant at all.
There on IOS is missing crucial users inteligence, knowledge and developers on IOS users market.
Simply said...they don't have and don't need developer oriented users and no quality devices to be upgraded or "pushed" further more.
Also...IOS is CLOSED SOURCE system not opened for free development because Apple can't make profit of that.

How To Guide Installing OneUI 4 Beta / Android 12 on US Galaxy Z Fold 3 F926U/1

Updated with more compatible adb link!
This is what I did to get the new beta. Feel free to tell me how dumb I am for allowing noobies to try the beta, but the more the merrier and they should know the risks....
RISKS: Phone may not be as stable as before and you will lose all your apps and data. Camera is bugged for me
1. BACK UP YOUR CURRENT BUILD USING SMART SWITCH. THIS WILL WIPE DALVIK/CACHE/DATA. Get SmartSwitch for PC HERE
2. Download Samsung Drivers for ADB/ODIN HERE
3. If you are on firmware ending in AUI5 for the CSC version XAA then skip to step #6 . If you are not, then download the respective firmware HERE
Also Download Patched ODIN (Patched version will be less scrutinous) HERE
4. Unzip the firmware you just downloaded as well as the Patched Odin. Run ODIN and add the BL, AP, CP, Home_CSC from the unzipped firmware to the corresponding locations in ODIN
5. Turn off phone and boot into "Download Mode" by first holding Volume +/- buttons and then hold the Power button. Now plug in your phone to your PC and you will see the first small grey square in the upper left side of ODIN turn light blue (if it does not, you have issues with either the cable or drivers).
Proceed in flashing the device by simply clicking the "Start" button.
Once it is done and your phone has rebooted... Make sure that you complete the setup process just in case of authentication issues if the phone isn't already set up
6. Download the OneUI 4 Beta HERE and then follow the guide to install adb https://www.xda-developers.com/install-adb-windows-macos-linux/
7. Follow the XDA adb install guide and make sure to allow adb systemwide when asked by the program.
8. Turn off phone. Boot into device by holding Volume Up and then holding Power. This will take you into recovery mode, where you will see the option to "update via ADB sideload".
Use the volume down key to navigate down to that option and press power to initiate the adb sideload function
9. Open command prompt by pressing the Windows key and typing "cmd" (no quotes) and press ENTER.
10. Type into the command prompt (of course remove the quotes) "adb sideload C:\path\to\your\oneui4\zip\file" . For example if I download that file into my Downloads folder, I would then type "adb sideload C:\Users\MyPC\Downloads\949981470b3948c3aa05a19e8a2edbd3.zip"

This is for US Fold 3 models f926U/1. Sorry brotha. Basically you need to change the beta file you downloaded to this http://fota-secure-dn.ospserver.net...48:16&px-unum=&px-nb=UGtezEZ854jbmFcvWGxLEA== as well as flash AUJ7 firmware first. I hear UK with CSC BTE works fine. Get it at https://samfw.com/firmware/SM-F926B/BTE/F926BXXU1AUJ7 . After you replaced those files, just follow the instructions again
Thanks for this Guide. But i have issue with Adb sideload update.zip
I downgrade to AUI5 and been using XAA firmware since i bought T-mobile Zfold3.
And since beta was released, I'd been trying to register for OneUI4 in Samsung Memeber app but No Banner or under rBenefit tab.
So saw your guide here and tried to followed your direction but adb sideload fails i get CANNOT READ message.
when i typed adb Devices it shows my device so adb is working but cannot sideload.
when i downloaded the update it was .bin 949981470b3948c3aa05a19e8a2edbd3.bin so i renamed it to .zip, i got the CANNOT READ message then renamed it to update.zip still the same Cannot Read.
I am using windows 11.
Haven't logged in to XDA in years. Just wanted to say THANK YOU.

Don't rename the file.
What I always do with adb related stuff is put it in the root of my C drive. So it would be
Code:
C:\adb\platform-tools\
Then put the .bin file in here as well.
After that open cmd and do
Code:
cd C:\adb\platform-tools\
and hit enter.
After that do adb sideload 94 and hit tab so it should autofill the name of the update file.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks for the instructions as they worked for me. I did receive an error before it finished at "(~94%) adb: failed to read command: No error". Phone booted and the system is showing One UI version 4.0, Android Version 12.
QUESTION though. What is up with the difference in Baseband version? I am seeing the official release having the last 2 digits of "JF" but on the phone just flashed, it is showing "JH".
For reference, complete Baseband version: F929U1UEU1ZUJH after flashing. Might just be my ignorance but thought I would ask.
Thoughts? And thank you again!

The baseband is just something that gets updated, so ZUJH is the Android 12 beta firmware. Every time you update your firmware the baseband gets updated as well.
More technical: Baseband is firmware that controls all radio devices on the phone, including GPS, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, NFC, cellular data, and more.
Will this work on att Galaxy fold 3 since I can't get update cause att blocks it.

I updated my SM-F926U1 with the Beta 4 its really buggy for me
Just want to get my facts straight. Can I just flash back to non-beta ?
What will happen to my Beta status will I still be able to OTA update when the next beta comes out ?
I have updated this with the newer adb binary install guide. I use the latest binaries from Android Studio and add them to path manually so I didnt know the 15 second installer was that outdated
Also yes you can downgrade by flashing the AUI5 that I posted in the guide

After rooting tablet and lenovo release update, " boot.img" must be change back to install OTA Update from lenovo .
Now it seams this OS will be stable on Lenovo YT_X705F SMART TAB.
But still probs on running differnt APPS on this doomed crap tablet, for this issue i'm looking on LineageOS

If you are on the same firmware S001135 then just use the boot.img I posted above. It should work. Also It would be better to disable system updates. I am creating a seperate post for running GSI of LineageOS and other ROMS.

How can I extract boot img from this?

How To Guide [Guide] Xiaomi Mi Pad 5 MIUI12/13 ROOT Step-by-step - Pass SafetyNet, Widevine L1

Everything you do, you do at your own risk. I'm not responsible for all damages, this can also lead to loss of warranty.
Hi,
Probably many of you know how to do a Magisk install without TWRP, but this guide is for people who don't know and don't want to mess things up.
I will try to show you step by step how to do it.
Many thanks to:
kdrag0n
topjohnwu
Leave them a nice feedback
!!! Before we start make sure your device is unlocked, if you don't know how to do it below is link to official Xiaomi guide !!!
https://c.mi.com/thread-2262302-1-0.html
Requirement
Xiaomi Mi Flash ver. =>3-14-0 - Needed to install all adb drivers Download
ADB & Fastboot tools - Could be the one built into Mi Flash tool I'll use this to make it simple
Magisk =>24.2 - This software is base of our rooting process Download
SafetyNet Fix => 2.2.1 (Zygisk) - Needed to backdoor SafetyNet fail check, at the moment it is only working method for Mi Pad 5 Download Make sure you download the Zygisk version!
Boot.img - You can download from official MIUI website full flashable rom and separate boot.img file from there, or use my if your Miui version is China 13.0.5, EEA 13.0.3, Global 13.0.1
China 13.0.5​EEA 13.0.3​Global 13.0.1​​​Installation
To make it easier, Green color mean what you need to do on Tablet, Orange on PC
Unzip Mi Flash tool
Open folder and run XiaoMiFlash.exe, if window "Driver" won't pop-up click on the Driver tab and then "Install" button and close all windows.
Connect your tablet to computer, when your tablet ask how you want use USB, choose File Transfer/Android Auto
Copy to internal storage Magisk-v****.apk, safetynet-fix-v****.zip and boot.img
Open File Manager on your tablet find a folder where you copied all files, and install Magisk
Open Magisk app, and click on Install in section Magisk, then select "Select and Path a File", after that find your boot.img file and click on it
Click "LET'S GO" button on the right side and wait until process will be finished
On your computer in the tablet's storage window, go to the file specified in the application probably /Download/magisk_patched-*****
Copy this file to a subfolder of Mi Flash on your computer, exactly to MiFlash2020-3-14-0\Source\ThirdParty\Google\Android and change the name of this file to boot.img
Open PowerShell/Windows Terminal in this folder (Hold Shift + Right click -> Open PowerShell window here)
Make sure your tablet have enabled USB debugging in Developer options Setting -> Additional settings -> Developer options -> USB debugging
Turn off your tablet, then hold down Power and VOL- until the screen lights up, then release power button, if Fastboot appears, everything went fine
Go back to your Terminal window and type to check if your computer see your tablet
Code:
./fastboot.exe devices
If you see answer "******** fastboot" it mean there is communication between PC and Tablet
Next type this command to flash patched boot image
Code:
./fastboot.exe flash boot boot.img
Next type this command to reboot your device
Code:
./fastboot.exe reboot
Restart can take a longer time than normal
Open Magisk app and check status of Magisk, if you see for exaple "Installed 24.2 (24200)" everything went fine
Open Settings in right corner of app and in section App click on Hide the Magisk app then type name for hidden app, it will ask to install new app so do it
Open again Magisk app and open Settings in section Magisk enable Zygisk (Beta) and Enforce DenyList
Click on Configure DenyList than click on three dots in right corner and uncheck Show system apps
Search for all the apps in the list below and check them. It is important to click on their name to see all modules, once you have done this click on the box to activate all of them
Code:
Google
Google Assistant (I have two)
Google Pay
Google Play services
Google Play Store
After that reboot your tablet, and open again Magisk app
On the bottom click on Modules
Click on Install from storage button and find file safetynet-fix-v*******.zip, than click on it
After that reboot your device one more time
After reboot open Android Settings go to Apps and Unhide system services than find and clear all data of Google Play services and Google Play Store
Reboot tablet last time
If you have reached this point it means that everything has gone correctly, probably for about 3 hours you will still not be able to install Netflix and some banking applications but after this time everything will be back to normal, this is because Google's servers have detected that Magisk has been installed but that the application has been changed and Zygisk has been enabled so at the next check it notices that everything is Ok and gives access back.
Quick explaination what happend here:
Magisk has been installed and device is Rooted
The application has been changed and hidden
Zygisk has been activated and hidden from Google services
SafetyNet-fix was installed, which restores the functionality of SafetyNet and Widevine L1, which is blocked after the installation of Magisk and unlocked Bootloader
Hello,
(I use google translate).
Thanks for your method. Before using it, I would like to ask you a few questions.
I have already rooted a few devices (mipad 1, mi phone, htc...) with my macbook and twrp.
The adb files are already installed on my mac.
1) once the pad 5 is rooted, should I, like on my phone, patch the new boot.img file with each update?
2) Could I install the twrp application afterwards to be able to do a complete backup of the system and possibly install a version of lineageos later?
3) Is there a version of miflash unlock tool for mac os x?
4) Should I register or register on the xioami site before unlocking the boot?
Thank you in advance for your method and your answers.

Hi Nux01,
1. Unfortunately yes, TWRP isn't supported for Pad 5 yet.
2. It won't work, TWRP app is only making a request to TWRP custom recovery, until it doesn't exist you can't even install custom ROM
3. It is, but i didn't test it yet on Pad 5, and I don't know if it will work with new decides because last release is from 20.07.2020.
https://github.com/francescotescari/XiaoMiToolV2/releases
4. Yes, you need Xiaomi account, also your device has to be logged in, and registered to unlock, Xiaomi made complete guide how to do this, link is on the top of this post.
Hello,
Thank you for your quick reply.
The latest version of Mitool does not work. On the other hand, with regard to version 20.7.21, it's OK.
What does it mean: "I do not know if it will work with new decides".
And to unlock the bootloader, I have to use the Xiaomitool V2 application?
Thanks again.

I mean it's quite old release so it may not work with current unlock bootloader process on new devices like a Xiaomi 12, Xiaomi Pad 5 etc. I can't promise it won't brick your device, only confirmed method is by official Xiaomi tool.
Thank you
I'll wait a little bit before rooting my tablet.
Have a nice day.
Followed the instruction, worked like a charm. Although I had unknown "chinese sings" errors with the driver install it worked. By the way there is a newer version of the flashing tool.
Thanks for the effort of writing this down!
Hello,
I just managed to unlock the bootloader of my tablet "Pad 5".
I tried under Mac and Linux with Xiaomitool V2 without success (error 20036 and 20045).
I also tried with VirtualBox who did not recognize the tablet.
I succeeded with VMware and Windows 7 by testing different drivers and it worked.
I just root the tablet with Magisk.
On the other hand, is there the equivalent of TWRP to make a complete system backup. Apart from Titanium and MyBackup.
Thanks for your help.
thanks dude.
didn't try this yet, just wondering.
can't i just flash recovery and then flash magisk.apk?
thanks

You can update, but after that you need root again but with boot.img from 13.0.2
How to get the boot.img 13.0.2? I checked the 3GB Firmware and only found vendor_boot.img. Is it the same thing?
Never mind. I got the boot.img from here: https://miuirom.org/tablets/xiaomi-pad-5

I have done everything above and i MIGHT have some problem. The problem with my problem is that its not really reproducable easily even for me.... Weird, I know!
Lets go into details:
Issue description: When I reboot my tablet it goes into "MIUI Recovery" window, on which I am offered to reboot the device or clean.... And when I reboot it goes back to the recovery screen again. Like a loop-hole.
....
But then if I leave it untouched for several minutes it reboots itself and launches the system properly finally...
When did it start: It first started after I performed this step:
24. Click on Install from storage button and find file safetynet-fix-v*******.zip, than click on it
25. After that reboot your device one more time
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
When I finally landed in the system I of course continued and performed further steps. After another reboot in step 27 the same thing happened but much, much longer.
I thought it somehow self fixed and works - once I am in the system. Right? So I did a reboot to test it. And no... recovery screen again for another 20 or so minutes until finally MIUI loaded fully.
Now I am afraid to turn off / reboot my tablet... I am afraid it might never finish booting next time.
Any ideas whats wrong and how to fix this weird and irregular behaviour?
My details:
Device: Xiaomi Pad 5 6/256gb
Original system was Chinese. I have reinstalled to Global one a version ago.
MIUI version currently running: 13.0.3(RKXMIXM)
Android version: 11 RKQ1.200826.002
Magisk version: 25.1 (25100) (32)
Magisk Modules: Universal SafetyNet Fix v2.2.1 (yes I made sure to download around Zygisk section)
Anything else I shall provide?

I also have this module installed without problems, as there is no recovey for Pad5, it is a good idea to install in magisk the module Magisk Bootloop Protector, which serves exactly to prevent what you are afraid that happen with your tablet
