Appearantly the K3V2 phones can be easily unlocked, no need for B118 or other chinese firmwares anymore!
1. Make sure you have a working adb connection to the PC
2. Boot to fastboot/bootloader either via the command adb reboot bootloader or by restarting the phone and holding down vol down+power for about 10 seconds.
3. Send this command to the phone via adb:
Code:
fastboot oem unlock UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
Note: Factory reset may or may not happen, so backup everything just incase, altough it has been reported that it does not happen by local xda users
It has been reported that this method works for unlocking the bootloader and flashing TWRP is successful.
According to huaweiblog.de it has been tested multiple times on P2, P6, and the Ascend Mate and it has always been successful.

Make it a difference? I mean for most of the Custom ROMs you need to be on Chinese Firmware if I understand everything right?

You only need to be in Chinase firmware becouse it's unlocked, and you cant install Custom ROM without phone been unlocked..

As I understand when you flash a chinese rom it will run that command before the installation with the same key, but I may be wrong. Someone should try it and see if they can flash twrp afterwards when they havent been on any chinese firmwares yet.
I would try but I don't want to risk my phone.

Yea, it seems really cool! Much less risky compared to installing B118cn or 120cn! And much less work compared to flashing kitkat beta.
Can anyone confirm if this works?

The lock command does not work for me, but the unlock command seems to work. But I tested it with B125 and already unlocked bootloader. But it seems to work. No error.
Now just someone with locked bootloader should test it.

I just wanted to test that but my phone says its already unlocked, too.
There was a thread here, where I says that the bootloader is unlocked but its encrypted so you can't flash anything.

Yes, even "unlocked" the bootloader checks for a Huawei signature and you can't flash anything custom. The question is if this particular unlock gets rid of this check as China Firmwares do.
I think I'm gonna try it this night and report back.
So you can't install TWRP for unlocked firmware?

Maybe, incase of the honor 2, this enabled the flashing of boot.img but not the bootloader.img. Dont try to flash twrp to boot partition.
Maybe some things are different on P6, but I'd doubt

Okay than I don't try that, when I can flash a boot.img I could install a custom ROM or?

no, if it doesnt unlock the bootloader partition to flashing. But here is the question - does it unlock it or not

Well, there are no reports of bricked devices by using this method, but be caucious. It will also do a factory reset, so make a backup or something before running the command
I will make a backup than run the unlock commands and after that I will try do flash TWRP with fastboot.

Yes. Root the device and install an Xposed Framework module along with Xposed Framework, ofcourse. Choose the desired module.
Thx

I was wondering if any of the few rooted between us have successfully installed ViPER4Android on the G4. If it works, are there any problems or hassles during installation specific to the G4 (boot loops and the like)? Can you set SELinux to permissive?
Nope Works flawlessly.
Flash this....

There a many Rom with cm Themes but not with Substratum. There a only 2 Roms. Exodus but have many problems and Tipsy but I don't like this Rom. I hope there coming more Roms with Substratum. For me the best theme Engine now.

No only the apk but not full integrated. 90% not working. Read the thread.

Many people are not going to use that just like they didn't use layers. The developers made sure of that by the way they treat people. Plus it is still in alpha stage and unstable.
Its not unstable.

If you say so
In the moment i open the app it says that OOs is a bootloop-risk ROM. Should I try to use it anyways?
Use cosmic-os

Just dont try to theme the system itself (framework) and you'll be fine. If you do try theming OOS framework bootloop is guaranteed.

Hi,
I just got OTA update to Android 9.0. I tried to re-root my device using both the latest SR5-SuperSU-v2.82-SR5-20171001224502 and twrp-3.3.1-0-oneplus3. They install ok but the device never been rooted at all.
Can someone please help me? I think there is a special version (of one of the above files) needs to be used instead.. right?
Thanks in advance...
SuperSu from 2017? Hm...
Is SuperSu even developed any further?
Why not try Magisk?
